Abstract

A general strategy is developed for dual-triggered chemo-photothermal tumor therapy based on template semi-graphitized mesoporous silica nanoparticles (TsGMSN). The strategy endues classic MSN with new charming properties, while easily escaping from toxicity of the surfactant. The doxorubicin-loaded system (TsGMSND) exhibits synergistic heat-stimulative, pH-responsive, and sustained release, and effective combined tumor therapy.
