Abstract:

Fe3+-doped polyaminopyrrole nanoparticles(Fe/Ppy-NH2 NPs) with uniform size are prepared by Fe3+- induced oxidative polymerization of aminopyrrole and the coordination between Fe3+ and polyaminopyrrole. The colloidal stability of Fe/Ppy-NH2 NPs is good, and the mass fraction of Fe3+ is as high as 17.4%. On the one hand, the large amount of Fe3+ doping in Fe/Ppy-NH2 NPs can enhance the extinction ability in near infrared region, and the photothermal conversion efficiency of is 37.9%, which showing that Fe/Ppy-NH2 NPs is a good photothermal reagent for the photothermal therapy of tumors. On the other hand, the presence of single electron in the 3d orbit of Fe3+ can reduce the longitudinal relaxation time, Fe/Ppy-NH2 NPs are able to act as T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents for tumor localization. In conclusion, Fe/Ppy-NH2 NPs have shown good effects in in-situ MRI and photothermal therapy of breast cancer.
