Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Nanotechnology
  • Molecular Biology

Background:

  • Accurate cancer diagnosis and effective treatment remain critical challenges.
  • Single biomarkers limit diagnostic precision, while mild treatments yield unsatisfactory outcomes.
  • Developing integrated diagnostic and therapeutic systems is essential for improved cancer care.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To construct an autonomous Au/Pd octopus nanoparticle-DNA nanomachine for precise cancer diagnosis and treatment.
  • To develop a logic system capable of detecting multiple tumor markers for targeted therapy.
  • To evaluate the efficacy of the nanomachine in performing photothermal and photodynamic therapy.

Main Methods:

  • Fabrication of a Au/Pd octopus nanoparticle-DNA nanomachine integrating detection and treatment units.
  • Design of a DNA-based logic system for multi-marker detection (one major, two secondary).
  • Application of an 808 nm laser for combined photothermal and photodynamic therapy upon successful target identification.

Main Results:

  • The Au/Pd ONP-DNA nanomachine demonstrated accurate identification of tumor cells in vitro and in vivo.
  • The integrated logic system successfully triggered therapeutic actions only when all designated tumor markers were detected.
  • The nanomachine exhibited considerable therapeutic effects through combined photothermal and photodynamic therapy.

Conclusions:

  • The developed Au/Pd ONP-DNA nanomachine serves as a fully automatic diagnosis and treatment logic system for cancer.
  • This multi-marker detection approach enhances diagnostic accuracy and enables precise, effective cancer therapy.
  • The nanomachine holds significant potential for advancing precision medicine in oncology.
