RESUMO
Recently, molybdenum sulfide (MoS2) has shown great application potential in tumor treatment because of its good photothermal properties. Unfortunately, most of the current molybdenum disulfide-based nanotherapeutic agents suffer from complex preparation processes, low photothermal conversion efficiencies, and poor structural/compositional regulation. To address these issues, in this paper, a facile "confined solvothermal" method is proposed to construct an MoS2-loaded porous silica nanosystem (designated as MoS2@P-hSiO2). The maximum photothermal efficiency of 79.5% of molybdenum-based materials reported in the literature at present was obtained due to the ultrasmall MoS2 nanoclusters and the rich porous channels. Furthermore, both in vitro and in vivo experiments showed that the cascade hybrid system (MoS2/GOD@P-hSiO2) after efficient loading of glucose oxidase (GOD) displayed a significant tumor-suppressive effect and good biosafety through the combined effects of photothermal and enzyme-mediated cascade catalytic therapy. Consequently, this hybrid porous network system combining the in situ solvothermal strategy of inorganic functional components and the efficient encapsulation of organic enzyme macromolecules can provide a new pathway to construct synergistic agents for the efficient and safe treatment of tumors.
