Gold-based nanostructures with tunable wavelength of localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) in the second near-infrared (NIR-II) biowindow receive increasing attention in phototheranostics. In view of limited progress on NIR-II gold nanostructures, a particular liposome template-guided route is explored to synthesize novel gold nanoframeworks (AuNFs) with large mesopores (≈40 nm) for multimodal imaging along with therapeutic robustness. The synthesized AuNFs exhibit strong absorbance in NIR-II region, affording their capacity of NIR-II photothermal therapy (PTT) and photoacoustic (PA) imaging for deep tumors. Functionalization of AuNFs with hyaluronic acid (HA) endows the targeting capacity for CD44-overexpressed tumor cells while gatekeeping doxorubicin (DOX) loaded into mesopores. Conjugation of Raman reporter 4-aminothiophenol (4-ATP) onto AuNFs yields a surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) fingerprint for Raman spectroscopy/imaging. In vivo evaluation of HA-4-ATP-AuNFs-DOX on tumor-bearing xenografts demonstrates its high efficacy in eradication of solid tumors in NIR-II under PA-Raman dual image-guided photo-chemotherapy. Thus, current AuNFs offer versatile capabilities for phototheranostics.

A major impediment to the clinical translation of DNA tiling nanostructures is a technical bottleneck for the programmable assembly of DNA architectures with well-defined local geometry due to the inability to achieve both sufficient structural rigidity and a large framework. In this work, a Y-backbone was inserted into each face to construct a superlarge, sufficiently rigidified tetrahedral DNA nanostructure (called RDT) with extremely high efficiency. In RDT, the spatial size increased by 6.

Thalassemia is a globally prevalent single-gene blood disorder, with nearly 7% of the world's population being carriers. Therefore, the development of specific and sensitive methods for thalassemia detection holds significant importance. Herein, a sandwich-type electrochemical/colorimetric dual-mode biosensor is developed based on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs)/graphdiyne (GDY) and DNA nanoframeworks for ultra-sensitive detection of CD142 gene associated with sickle cell anemia.

Precision nanomedicine can be employed as an alternative to chemo- or radiotherapy to overcome challenges associated with the often narrow therapeutic window of traditional treatment approaches, while safely inducing effective, targeted antitumor responses. Herein, we report the formulation of a therapeutic nanocomposite comprising a hyaluronic acid (HA)-coated gold nanoframework (AuNF) delivery system and encapsulated IT848, a small molecule with potent antilymphoma and -myeloma properties that targets the transcriptional activity of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB). The porous AuNFs fabricated via a liposome-templated approach were loaded with IT848 and surface-functionalized with HA to formulate the nanotherapeutics that were able to efficiently deliver the payload with high specificity to myeloma and lymphoma cell lines studies characterized biodistribution, pharmacokinetics, and safety of HA-AuNFs, and we demonstrated superior efficacy of HA-AuNF-formulated IT848 free IT848 in lymphoma mouse models.

Photothermal therapy (PTT) has shown great promise for cancer treatment light-triggered heat generation, while the anticancer efficacy of sole PTT is often limited. In this study, we report the use of radionuclide I-labeled gold nanoframeworks (I-AuNFs) for radiotherapy-combined second near-infrared (NIR-II) PTT of breast cancer. AuNFs synthesized a simple reduction approach are surface functionalized with polydopamine and poly(ethylene glycol), followed by labeling with I.

The development of multifunctional molecular diagnostic platforms for the concordant visualization and treatment of diseases with high sensitivity and resolution has recently become a crucial strategy in cancer management. Thus, engineering functional metamaterials with high therapeutic and imaging capabilities to elucidate diseases from their morphological behaviors to physiological mechanisms is an unmet need in the current scenario. Here, we report the design of a unique hybrid plasmonic nanoarchitecture for targeted multiple phototherapies of breast cancer by simultaneous real-time monitoring through fluorescence and surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) techniques.
