Magnetic Resonance Imaging-Guided Multi-Stimulus-Responsive Drug Delivery Strategy for Personalized and Precise...

The emergence of nano-targeted controlled release liposomal drug carriers has provided a breakthrough in cancer therapy. However, their clinical efficacy is unsatisfactory, which is related to individualized differences in targeted drugs and poor in vivo release efficiency. In this paper, we prepared a class of personalized targeted and precisely controlled-release therapeutic drug carriers (GF liposomes) by co-assembling targeting and traceable o-nitrobenzyl ester lipids to propose a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided personalized in vivo targeted drug screening strategy and a multi-stimulus superimposed controlled-release strategy. Furthermore, by following the drug release process of drug-loaded liposomes (GF-D), it was found that these liposomes could rely on energy superposition to achieve more sensitive and efficient controlled drug release. In addition, the indispensable adjustment of liposome formulation for personalized MRI-based targeted therapy was verified by differential cellular uptake and in vivo magnetic resonance imaging. In the end, the 10.22-fold tumor suppression effect in the stimulus superposition group (GF-D-UV) indicates that the multi-stimulus cumulative response strategy and MRI-guided in vivo screening strategy can more effectively treat cancer. This contribution provides a concise and clever design idea for the future development of personalized precise and efficient clinical cancer therapies.
