The invention discloses a multifunctional anticancer nano material based on polypeptide-
rare earth nanocrystals, which is characterized in that the nano material is a hydrophilic nano
microsphere of polypeptide entrapped
drug adriamycin and NaYF4: Yb < 3 + >, Er < 3 + > nanocrystals; wherein the hydrophobic end of the P13
peptide is combined with the
medicine doxorubicin and the NaYF4: Yb < 3 + > and Er < 3 + > nanocrystalline in a non-
covalent bond form to form a hydrophobic core; and the hydrophilic end of the P13
peptide is used as a targeting end to form a hydrophilic shell. According to the invention, polypeptide is used as a carrier for
entrapment of
drug adriamycin, and
drug inhibition and a PDT method are combined to kill
tumor cells in a manner of
entrapment of NaYF4: Yb < 3 + >, Er < 3 + > nanocrystals. According to the invention, a remarkable super-addition (1 + 1 > 2) effect is generated in a synergistic treatment mode, and the effect is remarkably enhanced compared with that of any single therapy; meanwhile, the multi-mode
combined treatment mode can effectively overcome the multi-
drug resistance of the tumor; in addition, the defect that the drug loading
system cannot be subjected to
fluorescence tracking due to the fact that the polypeptide has no
fluorescence characteristic is overcome.
