To resolve poor accumulation caused by systemic administration, injectable and responsive
hydrogels are the prospective drug delivery systems for localized tumor treatment, owning to …

Injectable and self-healing hydrogels with thermoresponsiveness as smart hydrogels
displayed injectability, automatic healing, and phase and volume changes as well. Here, the …

Strategies combining nanomaterials' chemotherapy and photothermal therapy hold an
enormous potential for improving cancer treatment. Still, the translation of this modality has …

In this study, gold nanorods (GNRs) were incorporated into the hydrogel networks formed by
the copolymerization of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAm) and methacrylated poly-β …

Intravenously administered nanocarriers suffer from off-target distribution, pre-targeting drug
leakage, and rapid clearance, limiting their efficiency in tumor eradication. To bypass these …

This study reports on an intelligent composite hydrogel with both pH-dependent drug
release in a cancer environment and heat generation based on NIR laser exposure, for the …

Conventional cancer treatments are highly toxic and ineffective; therefore, it is essential to
develop less toxic and minimally invasive treatment methods. A pH/Near Infra-red (NIR) dual …

Chemo-photothermal therapy (chemo-PTT) mediated by nanomaterials holds a great
potential for cancer treatment. However, the tumor uptake of the systemically administered …

In this work, a novel layered double hydroxide (LDH)-based multifunctional nanoplatform
was built for synergistic photothermal therapy (PTT)/chemotherapy. The platform was …

Synergistic tumor ablation strategies combining photothermal therapy (PTT) and
chemotherapy have unique advantages in solving thermal damage and pharmaceutical side …
