Closing the Loop in Nanotheranostics: From 124I Separation to Intrinsically Radiolabeled Platinum Nanoparticles for Potential PET/CT-Guided Photothermal Therapy

Abstract

Closing the loop in nanotheranostics, we integrate radionuclide production with functional nanomedicine through mesoporous alumina based radiochemical separation of no-carrier-added (NCA) 124I and its direct incorporation into protein functionalized platinum nanoparticles. The intrinsically radiolabeled [124I]Pt@GA shows high labeling efficiency, excellent stability, quantitative PET imaging, and effective photothermal cancer cell ablation.
