Red blood membrane camouflaging Bismuth nanoflowers designed for radio-photothermal therapy in lung cancer.
Journal of Drug Targeting 2024 March 13
Radio-photothermal therapy is an effective modality for cancer treatment. To overcome the radio-resistance in the hypoxic microenvironment and improve the sensitivity of radiotherapy, metal nanoparticles, and radio-photothermal therapy are widely used in the research of improving the curative effect and reducing the side effects of radiotherapy. Here, we developed red blood membrane camouflaging bismuth nanoflowers (RBCM-BNF) with outstanding physiological stability and biodegradability for lung tumours. In vitro data proved that the RBCM-BNF had the greatest cancer cell-killing ability combined with X-ray irradiation and photo-thermal treatment. Meanwhile, in vivo studies revealed that RBCM-BNF can alleviate the hypoxic microenvironment and promote tumour cell apoptosis by inhibiting HIF-1α expression and increasing caspase-3 expression. Therefore, RBCM-BNF had a good radio-sensitizing effect and might be a promising biomimetic nanoplatform as a therapeutic target for cancer.
