1: Illustration of bioresponsive and fluorescent hyaluronic acid-iodixanol nanogels for targeted X-ray computed tomography imaging and chemotherapy of breast tumors. (a) PTX-loaded HAI-NGs are prepared via nanoprecipitation followed by crosslinking via UV irradiation; (b) PTX-loaded HAI-NGs actively target and accumulate at MCF-7 tumors, resulting in enhanced CT contrast and targeted therapy; (c) PTX-loaded HAI-NGs are selectively internalized into the MCF-7 breast tumor cells via CD44 receptor-mediated endocytosis, nanogels are decross linked and disassembled in response to GSH in the cytosol, and PTX is quickly released into the cells.
