Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of nanobiomaterials, and particularly to a manganese dioxide modified metal organic framework coated rare earth upconversion nanocrystal heterostructure composite material, a preparation method and applications thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] The incidence of cancer in China is still on the rise, and most cancers are discovered late, making treatment more difficult or even impossible. Therefore, the preparation of new composite materials with integrated diagnosis and treatment functions has become a new hotspot in cancer treatment.
[0003] In the prior art, metal organic frameworks are one of the most outstanding candidates for catalysis and biomedical applications due to their tunable physical and chemical properties, including high porosity, well-defined topological structure, component diversity, and multiple coordination sites. In particular, nanoscale porphyrin metal organic frameworks, in which porphyrin-derived molecules are uniformly dispersed throughout the metal organic framework matrix, have received more widespread attention as a powerful light harvesting platform for the rapid generation and diffusion of singlet oxygen in photodynamic therapy. However, this singlet oxygen generation system is strongly dependent on the supply of a large amount of oxygen, which is insufficient in the hypoxic tumor microenvironment.
[0004] There are many methods in the prior art to address oxygen deficiency, such as directly using oxygen-loaded nanoparticles, or using peroxidase-like (Pt, Au, etc.), natural catalase to convert intracellular hydrogen peroxide into oxygen to alleviate tumor hypoxia and enhance the effect of photodynamic therapy. Natural enzymes have some inherent defects, such as low stability and high cost, which greatly limit their practical application in the biomedical field. Pt, Au, etc. heavy metals have better stability than natural enzymes, and also have good catalytic effect, but have greater toxicity. Therefore, it is necessary to find a hydrogen peroxide catalase with strong stability and low toxicity.
[0005] It has been found in the prior art that, to date, the poor penetration ability of visible light into tissues has become an obstacle to the application of porphyrin metal organic frameworks in deep photodynamic therapy, and therefore it is necessary to develop a technology to broaden the light harvesting system based on metal organic frameworks. Upconversion rare earth nanocrystals are a promising wavelength shifting platform that can adjust the light harvesting properties of metal organic frameworks. However, due to the large lattice mismatch and uncontrollable nucleation / growth rate of metal organic frameworks, the controllable and precise self-assembly of high-crystalline upconversion rare earth nanocrystals and metal organic framework nanocrystals remains a great challenge.
[0006] At present, fluorescence imaging has become one of the research hotspots in optical imaging technology, because fluorescence imaging has the advantages of high sensitivity, no damage to cells and biological tissues, etc. In addition to widening the light collection system based on metal organic frameworks, rare earth upconversion nanocrystals can also realize upconversion fluorescence imaging. This low-energy excitation and high-energy emission mode for biological imaging can not only eliminate the interference of biological background fluorescence, but also has a set tissue penetration depth. Magnetic resonance imaging can perform three-dimensional imaging of tissues without penetration depth limitation and has good spatial resolution. However, the sensitivity of magnetic resonance imaging is not high enough, and it is difficult to perform imaging at the cell and tissue level. Therefore, the combination of upconversion fluorescence imaging and magnetic resonance imaging can realize high sensitivity and high resolution of imaging at the same time, and improve the accurate diagnosis rate of early cancer.
[0007] Therefore, it is necessary to study a new bimodal diagnosis and treatment integrated manganese dioxide modified metal organic framework coated rare earth upconversion nanocrystal heterostructure composite material. SUMMARY

Under the excitation of near-infrared laser (808±3 or 980±3 nanometers), the upconversion emission of the UCNP is transferred to the metal organic framework by fluorescence resonance energy transfer, and the manganese dioxide acts as a peroxide catalase to decompose hydrogen peroxide to generate oxygen, achieving the purpose of relieving hypoxia and improving the photodynamic therapy effect. In addition, the composite material can realize upconversion fluorescence imaging and magnetic resonance imaging.
