Abstract
The biosafety and degradability of nanocarriers have always been an important factor restricting their entry into the clinic. In this work, a new nano-system was prepared by coating the photothermal effect of dopamine-doped mesoporous silica nanoparticles with carboxymethyl chitin through electrostatic interaction, and is further anchored with folic acid on the surface for targeted delivery of anti-cancer the drug doxorubicin (DOX). The nano-system (DOX@PDA/MSN-CMCS-FA) is simply modified CMCS after being loaded with DOX and has good dispersibility, and the drug loading is 10.6%. In vitro release studies have shown that the release rate of PDA/MSN-CMCS-FA is 40% in pH 5.5. Effective degradation is debris in 14 d acidic environments. Due to the anti-infrared photothermal effects of PDA doping and DOX chemotherapy, the semi-lethal concentration (IC50) of nanoparticles (NPS) was 14.95μg/mL, which can inhibit tumor cell growth by photochemical synergistic treatment, and have certain degradation performance.
