Manganese-pyrochloric acid photosensitizer nanocomplexes against osteosarcoma: achieving both high activatability and high effectiveness by Xuran Zhang, Xuran Zhang, Jian Wang, Qun Feng, Li Lei, Zhiyong Zhu

“…Intravenous nano-drug delivery systems (NDDSs) hold promise for enhancing the delivery efficiency of photosensitive drugs, but often result in aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) effects, preventing site-specific activation.MethodsWe exploited manganese (Mn2+)–pyrochloric acid (PPa) nanocomplexes coordinated using the photosensitizer PPa and metal Mn ion for the treatment of osteosarcoma. The nanocomplexes were precisely co-assembled in water to stably co-deliver Mn2+ and PPa, enabling tumor-specific release and fluorescence recovery.ResultsFollowing laser irradiation, the activated PPa significantly enhanced the killing effects on primary cancer cells. …”
