Abstract (original English)

Photothermal nanoparticles are important in photothermal therapy. Combining different nanoparticles can achieve a high photothermal capacity. In this study, composite nanoparticles composed of black phosphorus nanosheets (BPNSs) and gold nanostars (BP-AuNSs) were synthesized by using BPNSs as the reductant. AuNSs were deposited on the BPNSs. The BP-AuNSs were further hybridized with porous gelatin scaffolds to prepare gelatin-BP-AuNS composite scaffolds. The gelatin-BP-AuNS composite scaffolds promoted cell migration and distribution. The synergistic effects of the BPNSs and AuNSs endowed the gelatin-BP-AuNS composite scaffolds with excellent photothermal properties. The gelatin-BP-AuNS composite scaffolds eliminated cancer cells after near infrared laser exposure and supported the adipogenic differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells. Thus, this gelatin-BP-AuNS composite scaffold holds promise for breast cancer therapy.
