studied by confocal laser scanning microscopy. Furthermore, the in vivo imaging results proved the high tumor targeting efficiency of DVS-TSLs under hyperthermia. The therapeutic efficacy revealed that DVS-TSLs could significantly increase drug efficacy and decrease system toxicity. Therefore, the DVS-TSLs may serve as a promising system for temperature triggered cancer treatment.

a reactive oxygen species (ROS) activatable prodrug BDox which derived from chemotherapy drug DOX and ROS-sensitive moiety boron ester. BDox revealed reduced cytotoxicity comparing with DOX, and it could be activated by ROS and recovered its cytotoxicity. The nanoparticle with diameter of 40 nm remained innocuous in the dark, whereas PPIX generated noxious ROS after light irradiation, and thereupon led to the activation and release of BDox (Fig. 1). By controlling the light irradiation, we could simply manipulate where and when the prodrug was activated, and avoided toxic and side effect to normal tissues. Moreover, the synergy between ROS and DOX could effectively overcome the drug resistance of cancer cells. The lighttriggered drug delivery system with excellent anticancer efficacy and reduced side effect could act as a promising system in developing nanomedicine.

New treatment of Wilson´s disease Controlled drug release is critical for improving anticancer efficacy and reduing side effects of drug delivery systems [1]. Lighttriggered prodrug activation system, which integrates manipulable drug release and synergy of photodynamic therapy and chemotherapy, can increase anti-cancer efficacy and overcome the drug resistance of cancers [2]. In this work, we described a light-triggered drug delivery system that comprised photosensitizer protoporphyrin IX (PPIX), a biodegradable block copolymer poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(niacin) (PEG-PNC), which maintained the stealth and stability of the nanoparticle, as well as

Wilson’s disease is a genetic disorder causing excessive accumulation of copper in the body leading to toxic damage especially in the liver and in the nervous system. The current treatment is based on low-molecular weight copper chelators and zinc salts that have some burdensome side effects that arise as a consequence of absorption into the blood and organs after ingestion [1]. We design new biomaterials based on cellulose and crosslinked chitosan with covalently bounded copper chelator as potential drugs for the treatment of Wilson’s disease (Fig. 1). We proceeded from the fact that copper is absorbed into the body by the gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, new designed biopolymers should not be degradable in human digestive tract and should serve as copper scavengers. Our new proposed therapy utilizes specific copper chelating agent (8-hydroxyquinoline) that is covalently bound to carriers, cellulose or chitosan. New biocompatible carriers provide scavenging copper from gastrointestinal tract without organ deposition. Described compounds are eliminated through the feces after oral administration. We tested this idea in Wistar rats, which received radioactive 64Cu, with cellulose or chitosan with covalently bound 8-hydroxyquinoline. We
