Abstract
Photothermal and photodynamic therapies represent effective modalities for combatting bacteria and tumor cells. However, therapeutic outcomes are constrained by limitations related to the heat and reactive oxygen species (ROS) transfer distance from photosensitizers to targets. To address this issue, we have devised and developed exosome-decorated bio-heterojunctions (E-bioHJ) consisted of MXene (Ti3C2), liquid metal (LM) and exosomes sourced from CT26 cells to enhance the phototherapeutic consequences. Engineering E-bioHJ enhances phototherapeutic effect in antibacterial and anti-tumor treatment, which is ascribed to reducing transfer distance of the heat and ROS. When adorned with exosomes, E-bioHJ is targetedly delivered into the cytoplasm of tumor cells to generate amount heat and ROS under 808 nm near-infrared radiation, which further induces mitochondrial dysfunction and apoptosis/necroptosis. As envisaged, this study presents a novel tactic to enhance the antibacterial and anti-tumor efficacy of biomaterials through reducing the heat and ROS delivery travel distance.
期刊介绍:
Biomaterials is an international journal covering the science and clinical application of biomaterials. A biomaterial is now defined as a substance that has been engineered to take a form which, alone or as part of a complex system, is used to direct, by control of interactions with components of living systems, the course of any therapeutic or diagnostic procedure. It is the aim of the journal to provide a peer-reviewed forum for the publication of original papers and authoritative review and opinion papers dealing with the most important issues facing the use of biomaterials in clinical practice. The scope of the journal covers the wide range of physical, biological and chemical sciences that underpin the design of biomaterials and the clinical disciplines in which they are used. These sciences include polymer synthesis and characterization, drug and gene vector design, the biology of the host response, immunology and toxicology and self assembly at the nanoscale. Clinical applications include the therapies of medical technology and regenerative medicine in all clinical disciplines, and diagnostic systems that reply on innovative contrast and sensing agents. The journal is relevant to areas such as cancer diagnosis and therapy, implantable devices, drug delivery systems, gene vectors, bionanotechnology and tissue engineering.
