چکیده
Nearly monodispersed yolk-type Au@Fe3O4@C nanospheres with hollow cores of 50 nm in diameter were prepared through coating Au@SiO2 nanoparticles with Fe3O4@C double layers, followed by dissolving SiO2. The cytotoxicity of the nanospheres was evaluated by MTT assay, demonstrating a high biocompatibility. The yolk-type nanospheres show a high DOX loading content of 1237 mg g(-1). The coexistence of Fe3O4 and Au also makes the nanospheres as dual probes for MR imaging with a specific relaxivity (r2*) of 384.38 mM(-1) s(-1) and optical fluorescence imaging using a near-infrared (NIR) excitation.

Mn(II) mediated degradation of artemisinin based on Fe3O4@MnSiO3-FA nanospheres for cancer therapy in vivo.
Artemisinin (ART) is a natural drug with potent anticancer activities related with Fe(2+) mediated cleavage of the endoperoxide bridge in ART. Herein, we reported that Mn(2+) could substitute for Fe(2+) to react with ART and generate toxic products, inducing a much higher anticancer efficiency. On this basis, we prepared pH-responsive Fe3O4@MnSiO3-FA nanospheres which can efficiently deliver hy...
