Abstract

A new multifunctional nanovehicle for tumor therapy and cell imaging was fabricated by coating NIR light-responsive polymers (HAMAFA-b-DDACMM) onto the surface of octadecyltrimethoxysilane (C18)-modified hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles (HMS@ C18) via self-assembly. First, the targeting NIR light-responsive block copolymer was synthesized by the RAFT living polymerization of [7-(didodecylamino) coumarin-4-yl] ...
