Abstract

Killing of cancer cells by applying mechanical disruption has been an appealing emerging strategy for cancer treatment in recent years. In this study, photoresponsive submicron particles based on diazo-resin that are able to release N 2 under UV irradiation were prepared through a polyamine–salt aggregation method. After surface modification with hyaluronic acid, the particles could be internalized selectively by cancer cells and were mainly located in lysosomes after 6 h incubation. The viability of cancer cells decreased obviously after they were co-cultured with photoresponsive particles and UV irradiation due to the integrity damage of lysosomes by phototriggered N 2 generation and the subsequent increased number of reactive oxygen species.
