1 Herein, we utilize a surfactant-like chemotherapeutic agent, mitoxantrone (MTX), as a nanocarrier to deliver a photosensitizer pyropheophorbide a (PPa) for antitumor therapy. Mitoxantrone preproenkephalin Mus musculus

3 MTX consists of aromatic rings (hydrophobic part) and two amino-groups and two hydroxyl-groups (hydrophilic part) with planar structure, which could interact with PPa via pi-pi stacking, hydrophobic interactions, intermolecular hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interactions. Mitoxantrone preproenkephalin Mus musculus
4 This system (PPa@MTX) spontaneously forms near-spherical nanostructures (~150 nm), has a high loading capacity for PPa (56.5%) and exhibits a pH-responsive drug release manner in vitro. Mitoxantrone preproenkephalin Mus musculus

6 In vivo antitumor efficacy evaluations show that the pegylated PPa@MTX nanosystem has increased accumulation in tumor tissues and enhanced antitumor efficacy in female BALB/c mice bearing murine mammary carcinoma (4T1) tumor cells, compared to free PPa. Mitoxantrone preproenkephalin Mus musculus
