Smart gold nanoparticle-stabilized microbubbles (SAuMBs) composed of a gas-filled core and shell including smart gold nanoparticles (SAuNPs) which can be aggregated in tumors were applied as ultrasound-mediated cancer theranostics. The gas core in the microstructure enabled the detection of tumors using ultrasound and facilitated the delivery of SAuNPs by sonoporation. The SAuNPs spontaneously aggregated in tumors, which allowed photoacoustic (PA) monitoring and photothermal treatment (PTT) of tumors.

Despite the significant potential of short hairpin RNA (shRNA)-mediated gene therapy for various diseases, the clinical success of cancer treatment remains poor, partly because of low selectivity and low efficiency. In this study, an mRNA-initiated autonomous multi-shRNA nanofactory (RNF@CM) is designed for in vivo amplification imaging and precise cancer treatment. The RNF@CM consists of a gold nanoparticle core, an interlayer of two types of three-stranded DNA/RNA hybrid probes, one of which is bound to aptamer-inhibited DNA polymerases, and an outer layer of the cancer cell membrane.

Bioimaging technology has been broadly used in biomedicine, and the growth of multimodal imaging technology based on synergistic advantages can overcome the shortcomings of traditional single-modal bioimaging methods and attain high specificity and sensitivity in the fields of bioimaging and biosensing. The analysis of low-abundance microRNAs (miRNAs) in complex organisms is of high importance for early-stage diagnosis and clinical treatment of tumors. In our current study, a biosensing nanoplatform based on Tf-AuNCs and MnO nanosheets was developed for multimodal imaging of tumor cells.
