摘要Diatoms,as natural sources of porous silica,have important potential for biomedical applications.Biohybrid microrobots also show promise for targeted delivery;however,research on converting diatoms into biohybrid microrobots and exploiting their intrinsic properties for cancer treatment remains limited.In this study,Thalassiosira weissflogii was transformed into biohybrid microrobots(Mag-Diatoms)while retaining its natural chlorophyll,thereby enabling Mag-Diatom-mediated photo-dynamic therapy(PDT)without additional drug modification.In this system,Mag-Diatoms acted as microrobots,and their intrinsic chlorophyll served as a photosensitizer,exhibiting excellent biological safety.The autonomous closed-loop motion of the Mag-Diatoms was achieved using an artificial intelligence algorithm,which enabled controlled navigation along a pre-set trajectory.Mag-Diatoms also exhibited the ability to traverse narrow slits and target cancer cells within a cellular environ-ment.The PDT effect was validated in vitro using human malignant glioblastoma(GBM)cell lines and primary cells derived from patients.The results revealed that the cell viability was closely related to the Mag-Diatom concentration,laser intensity,and irradiation time.Under combined Mag-Diatoms and laser treatment,viability decreased to 19.5%in primary cells and 3.6%in cell line models.Moreover,in vivo experiments using a mouse glioma model revealed that Mag-Diatom-mediated PDT effectively suppressed GBM progression.These findings highlight the potential of diatom-derived biohybrid microro-bots,leveraging their natural properties,as a novel material and solution for PDT-based GBM therapy.
