description | Biomimetic nanoparticles hold great promise for photonic-mediated nanomedicine due to the association of the biological functionality of the membrane with the physical/chemical goals of organic/inorganic structures, but studies involving fluorescent biomimetic vesicles are still scarce. The purpose of this article is to determine how photothermal therapy (PTT) with theranostic IR-780-based nanoparticles depends on the dye content, cholesterol content, lipid bilayer phase and cell membrane type. The photophysical responses of synthetic liposomes, cell membrane vesicles and hybrid nanoparticles are compared. The samples were characterized by nanoparticle tracking analysis, photoluminescence, electron spin resonance, and photothermal- and heat-mediated drug release experiments, among other techniques. The photothermal conversion efficiency (PCE) was determined using Roper’s method. All samples excited at 804 nm showed three fluorescence bands, two of them independent of the IR-780 content. Samples with a fluorescence band at around 850 nm showed photobleaching (PBL). Quenching was higher in cell membrane vesicles, while cholesterol inhibited quenching in synthetic liposomes with low dye content. PTT depended on the cell membrane and was more efficient for melanoma than erythrocyte vesicles. Synthetic liposomes containing cholesterol and a high amount of IR-780 presented superior performance in PTT experiments, with a 2.4-fold PCE increase in comparison with free IR-780, no PBL and the ability to heat-trigger doxorubicin release. |
