    Abstract:
    Nanochemotherapy is recognized as one of the most promising cancer treatment options, and the design of the carrier has a crucial impact on the final efficacy. To precisely improve the efficacy and reduce the toxicity, we combined the clinical contrast agent (Gd-DTPA) with a stimulus-sensitive o-nitrobenzyl ester and then prepared a series of nNBGD lipids by varying the carbon chain length of the hydrophobic group. The self-assembled nNBGD liposomes can be tracked by MRI to localize the aggregation of drug carriers in vivo, so as to prompt the application of light stimulation at the optimal time to facilitate the precise release of carriers at the lesion site. And the application potential of this strategy was verified with 88% tumor suppression effect in the 12NBGD-DOX+UV group. In addition, this paper emphasizes that small differences in structure can affect the overall performance of the carriers. By exploration of the differences in stability, drug loading, stimulus responsiveness, MRI imaging effect, and toxicity of the series of nNBGD carriers, the relationship between the length of the hydrophobic group of nNBGD lipids and the overall performance of the carriers is given, which provides experimental support and design reference for other carriers.
