(a) Schematic representation of stimuli-responsive DOX-loaded AuNC/HA nanoparticles for pinpointed intracellular drug release and synergistic therapy. (b) The DOX release profiles from DOX/AuNCs/HA in acetate buffer at pH 4.5: (1) control, (2) upon NIR irradiation, (3) in the presence of hyaluronidase, (4) in the presence of Hyal upon NIR irradiation. (c) Live/dead and flow cytometry apoptosis assay. (d) The relative tumor volumes of nude mice versus time after treatment. Control (a), AuNCs/HA upon NIR irradiation (b), DOX/AuNCs/HA (c), DOX/AuNCs/HA upon NIR irradiation (d). Reproduced with permission [76]
