mouse experiments demonstrated that the synergistic effects of photothermal ablation combined with doxorubicin-induced inhibition of the breast cancer cells in and surrounding the composite scaffolds under near-infrared laser irradiation. Moreover, after drug release was complete, the composite scaffolds fostered human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cell proliferation. These results suggested that the composite scaffolds provided synergistic photothermal therapy and chemotherapy for breast cancer cell elimination at the early stage and promoted stem cell activities at the late stage. Therefore, this composite scaffold holds great potential as a synergistic therapy platform for breast cancer treatment.
