Popis: Aim: The rational design of a fluorescence imaging-guided, highly efficient multiresponsive delivery system is important for improving drug delivery efficiency. Materials and methods: Herein, pH/H2O2-responsive polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) molecule functionalized 4-(phenyl(4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)-phenyl)amino)benzaldehyde (OTB) copolymer (PEG-POSS-OTB) was synthesized to encapsulate doxorubicin (DOX) for precise drug delivery. Results: The self-assembly fluorescent vesicles exhibited excellent pH/H2O2-responsive drug release properties under physiological conditions and efficient drug-targeting ability. In vitro, compared with the DOX group, PEG-POSS-OTB fluorescent vesicles exhibited improved drug delivery and reduced toxicity. Importantly, we performed a proof-of-concept study demonstrating that PEG-POSS-OTB fluorescent vesicles were a high-efficiency nanoassembly drug-delivery platform for improving drug delivery efficiency. In vivo studies demonstrated that PEG-POSS-OTB vesicles with enhanced stability could be used in targeted drug delivery and controlled intelligent release.
