Abstract

To maintain magnetic properties, physical properties, and bio-applicability, a liposomal structure is introduced to the magnetic MNP@mSiO2 (MagLipo). EGFR-antibody-conjugated MagLipo is successfully applied for T2-w imaging and magnetic sensing after specific targeting to BxPC3 pancreatic cancer. Furthermore, the MagLipo carrying a therapeutic drug and gene shows a high therapeutic effect with drug release in a pH-sensitive manner in vitro.
