Popis: We herein report a hybrid nanocomposite (AuNRs-CTN@THA) which is based on hyaluronic acid-coated gold nanorods with loading of a copper complex through strong bonds. AuNRs-CTN@THA exhibits durable photothermal conversion capacity for pH-dominant and pH/temperature dual sensitive drug release, accomplishing synergetic antitumor efficacy and deep tumor penetration.
