Abstract Background Photothermal therapy (PTT) is an emerging anti-cancer therapeutic strategy that generates hyperthermia to ablate cancer cells under laser irradiation. Gold (Au) coated liposome (AL) was reported as an effective PTT agent with good biocompatibility and excretory property. However, exposed Au components on liposomes can cause instability in vivo and difficulty in further functionalization. Results Herein, we developed a theranostic dual-layered nanomaterial by adding liposomal layer to AL (LAL), followed by attaching polyethylene glycol (PEG) and radiolabeling. Functionalization with PEG improves the in vivo stability of LAL, and radioisotope labeling enables in vivo imaging of LAL. Functionalized LAL is stable in physiological conditions, and 64Cu labeled LAL (64Cu-LAL) shows a sufficient blood circulation property and an effective tumor targeting ability of 16.4%ID g−1 from in vivo positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. Also, intravenously injected LAL shows higher tumor targeting, temperature elevation in vivo, and better PTT effect in orthotopic breast cancer mouse model compared to AL. The tumor growth inhibition rate of LAL was 3.9-fold higher than AL. Conclusion Based on these high stability, in vivo imaging ability, and tumor targeting efficiency, LAL could be a promising theranostic PTT agent. Graphic Abstract

The available and effective therapeutic means to treat choriocarcinoma is seriously lacking, mainly due to the toxic effects caused by chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Accordingly, we developed a method for targeting delivery of chemotherapeutical drugs only to cancer cells, not normal cells, in vivo, by using a synthetic placental chondroitin sulfate (CSA)-binding peptide (plCSA-BP) derived from malarial protein VAR2CSA. A 28 amino acids placental CSA-binding peptide (plCSA-BP) from the VAR2CSA was synthesized as a guiding peptide for tumor-targeting delivery, dendrigraft poly-L-lysines (DGL) was modified with plCSA-BP and served as a novel targeted delivery carrier. Choriocarcinoma was selected to test the effect of targeted delivery carrier, and prodigiosin isolated from Serratia marcescens subsp. lawsoniana was selected as a chemotherapeutical drug and encapsulated in the DGL modified by the plCSA-BP nanoparticles (DGL/CSA-PNPs). DGL/CSA-PNPs had a sustained slow-release feature at pH 7.4, which could specifically bind to the JEG3 cells and exhibited better anticancer activity than that of the controls. The DGL/CSA-PNPs induced the apoptosis of JEG3 cells through caspase-3 and the P53 signaling pathway. DGL/CSA-PNPs can be used as an excellent targeted delivery carrier for anticancer drugs, and the prodigiosin could be an alternative chemotherapeutical drug for choriocarcinoma.
