a Treatment process. b, c Temperature change curves over time and thermal images of tumours after injecting of in situ 4T1 tumour-bearing mice with PBS, P@M, PCo@M, and PCoA@M and treated with NIR. Colour scale: black to red represents the temperature of the tumour from low to high. Data are presented as the means ± s.d. (n = 3 mice per group). d Fluorescence imaging of 4T1 tumour sections after different Dil-labelled probes were injected into mice. Scale bar: 400 μm. e–i TUNEL, HE, Bax, Bcl-2, and HSP90 immunofluorescence staining at the tumour site. Red arrow in f: vacuolization in the cell; blue arrow: cell necrosis; yellow arrow: cell atrophy; purple arrow: separation of the nucleus and cytoplasm. Images are representative of three biologically independent mice. Scale bars in e, g, h and i: 100 μm; scale bar of HE images in f: 100 μm; scale bar of tumour images in f: 5 mm.
