“…[ 155 ] Organic polymers offer a well‐documented pharmaceutically relevant platform that has been underexplored for photothermal drug encapsulation and delivery. [ 156 ] To date, different categories photothermal organic polymer nanoparticles for photothermal‐triggered drug delivery have been developed, including the amphiphilic polymer nanobioconjugates via coprecipitation of poly(cyclopentadithiophene‐ alt ‐diketopyrrolopyrrole) and photothermal modulator polystyrene‐ b ‐poly(acrylic acid) to regulate heat‐sensitive Ca 2+ ion channels in neurons, [ 157 ] semiconducting polymer L1057 nanoparticles fabricated by Pd‐catalyzed Stille polymerization of 6,6,12,12‐tetrakis(4‐hexylphenyl)‐ s ‐indacenodithieno[3,2‐ b ]thiophene‐bis(trimethylstannane) and 4,9‐dibromo‐6,7‐bis(4‐(hexyloxy)phenyl)[1,2,5]thiadiazolo[3,4‐ g ]quinoxaline for NIR‐II bioimaging‐guided photothermal cancer therapy, [ 158 ] the semiconducting copolymer poly[(diketopyrrolopyrrole‐ alt ‐cyclopentadithiophene)‐ ran ‐(diketopyrrolopyrrole‐alt‐thiadiazoloquinoxaline)] for improved anticancer hyperthermia treatment, [ 159 ] NIR‐absorbance polymer PDPP3T‐O14 composed of poly((2,5‐diyl‐2,3,5,6‐tetrahydro‐3, 6‐dioxo‐pyrrolo(3,4‐ c )pyrrole‐1,4‐diyl)‐ alt ‐(2,2′:5′,2″‐terthiophene‐5,5″‐diyl)) as backbone and oligo(ethylene glycol) as side chains for efficient disassembly of amyloid β (Aβ), [ 160 ] cyclo(Arg‐Gly‐Asp‐DPhe‐Lys(mpa))‐modified donor–acceptor structured conjugated polymer nanoagents polymerized via hydrophobic alkyl chain‐appended (4,8‐bis((2‐octyldodecyl)oxy)‐benzo[1,2‐b:4,5‐b′]dithiophene‐2,6‐diyl)bis(trimethylstannane)) and 4,8‐bis(5‐bromo‐4‐(2‐ethylhexyl)thiophen‐2‐yl)benzo[1,2‐c:4,5‐c′]bis[1,2,5]thiadiazole as the electron donor and acceptor for accurate spatiotemporal hyperthermia brain cancer treatment via scalp and skull, [ 161 ] nanodots via peptide‐tuned self‐assembly of light‐activable porphyrins for photoacoustic imaging and efficient cancer treatment, [ 94d ] porphyrin‐based covalent organic framework nanoplatform for photoacoustic imaging‐guided combined photothermal/photodynamic therapy. [ 162 ] The semiconducting polymer L1057 NPs acting as the theranostic nanosystems were effectively applied in NIR‐II imaging‐guided photothermal therapy.…”
