Chromium-Doped Zinc Gallogermanate@Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework-8: A Multifunctional Nanoplatform for Rechargeable In Vivo Persistent Luminescence Imaging and pH-Responsive Drug Release.
ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces 2018 December 20
Multifunctional theranostic nanoplatforms greatly improve the accuracy and effectiveness in tumor treatments. Much effort has been made in developing advanced optical-imaging-based tumor theranostic nanoplatforms. However, autofluorescence and irradiation damage of the conventional fluorescence imaging technologies as well as unsatisfied curative effects of the nanoplatforms remain great challenges against their wide applications. Herein, we constructed a novel core-shell multifunctional nanoplatform, i.e. chromium-doped zinc gallogermanate (ZGGO) near-infrared (NIR) persistent luminescent nanoparticles (PLNPs) as a core and zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) as a shell (namely ZGGO@ZIF-8). The ZGGO@ZIF-8 nanoplatform possessed dual functionalities of the autofluorescence-free NIR PersL imaging as well as the pH-responsive drug delivery, thus was highly expected in tumor theranostics. Notably, the loading content of doxorubicin (DOX) in ZGGO@ZIF-8 (LC = 93.2%) was quite high, and the drug release of DOX-loaded ZGGO@ZIF-8 was accelerated in an acidic microenvironment such as tumor cells. The ZGGO@ZIF-8 opens up a new material system in the combination of PLNPs with metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and may offer new opportunities for the development of advanced multifunctional nanoplatforms for tumor theranostics, chemical sensing, and optical information storage.
