Abstract

Multifunctional nanocarriers based on the up‐conversion luminescent nanoparticles of NaYF 4:Yb 3+/Er 3+ core (UCNPs) and thermo/pH‐coupling sensitive polymer poly[(N‐isopropylacrylamide)‐co‐(methacrylic acid)] (P(NIPAm‐co‐MAA)) gated mesoporous silica shell are reported for cancer theranostics, including fluorescence imaging, and for controlled drug release for therapy. The as‐synthesized hybrid nanospheres UCNPs@mSiO 2‐P(NIPAm‐co‐MAA) show bright green up‐conversion fluorescence under 980 nm laser excitation and the thermo/pH‐sensitive polymer is active as a “valve” to moderate the diffusion of the embedded drugs in‐and‐out of the pore channels of the silica container. The anticancer drug doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) can be absorbed into UCNPs@mSiO 2‐P(NIPAm‐co‐MAA) nanospheres and the composite drug delivery system (DDS) shows a low level of leakage at low temperature/high pH values but significantly enhanced release at higher temperature/lower pH values, exhibiting an apparent thermo/pH controlled “on‐off” drug release pattern. The as‐prepared UCNPs@mSiO 2‐P(NIPAm‐co‐MAA) hybrid nanospheres can be used as bioimaging agents and biomonitors to track the extent of drug release. The reported multifunctional nanocarriers represent a novel and versatile class of platform for simultaneous imaging and stimuli‐responsive controlled drug delivery.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
