Cell viability of SMMC-7721 cells.

Notes: (A) Cell viability of SMMC-7721 cells incubated for 24 h with different concentrations of AuNCs-PM-HA with or without NIR irradiation (808 nm, 1.5 W/cm2, 7 min). (B) Viability of SMMC-7721 cells incubated for 24 h with DOX/AuNCs-PM-HA with or without NIR, free DOX (DOX content at 0, 0.42, 0.84, 1.26, 1.68 μg/mL) and AuNCs-PM-HA with NIR irradiation (808 nm, 1.5 W/cm2, 7 min). *p<0.05, **p<0.01, and ***p<0.001 indicate significant difference between two groups.

Abbreviations: AuNCs, gold nanocages; DOX, doxorubicin; DOX/AuNCs-PM-HA, DOX-loaded, PM-grafted and HA-modified AuNCs; HA, hyaluronic acid; NIR, near-infrared irradiation; PM, copolymer of N-isopropylacrylamide and acrylamide.
