Self-Assembled Plasmonic Vesicles of SERS-Encoded Amphiphilic Gold Nanoparticles for Cancer Cell Targeting and Traceable Intracellular Drug Delivery

Song, Jibin, Zhou, Jiajing, Duan, Hongwei·2012·Journal of the American Chemical Society

Abstract

We report the development of bioconjugated plasmonic vesicles assembled from SERS-encoded amphiphilic gold nanoparticles for cancer-targeted drug delivery. This new type of plasmonic assemblies with a hollow cavity can play multifunctional roles as delivery carriers for anticancer drugs and SERS-active plasmonic imaging probes to specifically label targeted cancer cells and monitor intracellular drug delivery. We have shown that the pH-responsive disassembly of the plasmonic vesicle, stimulated by the hydrophobic-to-hydrophilic transition of the hydrophobic brushes in acidic intracellular compartments, allows for triggered intracellular drug release. Because self-assembled plasmonic vesicles exhibit significantly different plasmonic properties and greatly enhanced SERS intensity in comparison with single gold nanoparticles due to strong interparticle plasmonic coupling, disassembly of the vesicles in endocytic compartments leads to dramatic changes in scattering properties and SERS signals, which can serve as independent feedback mechanisms to signal cargo release from the vesicles. The unique structural and optical properties of the plasmonic vesicle have made it a promising platform for targeted combination therapy and theranostic applications by taking advantage of recent advances in gold nanostructure based in vivo bioimaging and photothermal therapy and their loading capacity for both hydrophilic (nucleic acids and proteins) and hydrophobic (small molecules) therapeutic agents.

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.
