Abstract

Near-infrared (NIR)-II fluorescence agents hold great promise for deep-tissue photothermal therapy (PTT) of cancers, which nevertheless remains restricted by the inherent nonspecificity and toxicity of PTT. In response to this challenge, we herein develop a hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S)-activatable nanostructured photothermal agent (Nano-PT) for site-specific NIR-II fluorescence-guided PTT of colorectal cancer (CRC). Our in vivo studies reveal that this theranostic Nano-PT probe is specifically activated in H 2 S-rich CRC tissues, whereas it is nonfunctional in normal tissues. Activation of Nano-PT not only emits NIR-II fluorescence with deeper tissue penetration ability than conventional fluorescent probes but also generates high NIR absorption resulting in efficient photothermal conversion under NIR laser irradiation. Importantly, we establish NIR-II imaging-guided PTT of CRC by applying the Nano-PT agent in tumor-bearing mice, which results in complete tumor regression with minimal nonspecific damages. Our studies thus shed light on the development of cancer biomarker-activated PTT for precision medicine.

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.
