As one of the most promising drug-delivery carriers due to its small size, easy surface modifiability, and hydrophobic interior, cationic poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) per se, demonstrated by previous reports and the authors' present study, indicate potential anticancer capability, however, which are restricted by autophagy elicitation. Besides, its side-toxicity profile, having also been extensively documented, limits its translation into the clinic. Herein, the authors design a photoresponsive PAMAM-assembled nanoparticle loaded with the autophagy inhibitor (chloroquine, CQ), which exhibits light responsiveness for precisely controlling drug release and superior dark biosafety.
