Abstract

A near-infrared (NIR) light-triggered drug delivery platform is produced by incorporating SrCl2 and BP nanosheets (BPs) into poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) for bone regeneration. The fabricated BP-SrCl2/PLGA microspheres show efficient NIR absorption and photothermal effects due to the BPs. The NIR-triggered release behavior of Sr2+ by flawing the PLGA shells is investigated and the microspheres exhibit excellent cell viability and biodegradability. Implantation of the BP-SrCl2/PLGA microspheres into a rat femoral defect demonstrates good tissue compatibility and excellent bone regeneration capacity under NIR light irradiation. Our study indicates that local release of Sr2+ at optimal time periods controlled by NIR irradiation improves bone regeneration significantly and this NIR-triggered drug delivery system composed of BPs is suitable for therapies requiring precise control at specific time.
