Gold nanoparticles have demonstrated tremendous utility and multifunctionality for the diagnosis and treatment of cancer.[1] Not only can these structures serve as targeted drug delivery vehicles,[2] they can also act as contrast agents for near-infrared (NIR) laser photothermal tumor ablation [3] and as platforms in a range of other biomedical diagnostic [1a, 4] and therapeutic [5] applications. The uptake and removal of circulating nanoparticles by the mononuclear phagocyte system (MPS),[6] represents one of the most significant impediments to the efficient delivery of nanoscale structures to solid tumors, and to-date, the majority of tumor-targeting strategies for nanoparticles attempt to evade the MPS and increase circulation time. Here, we show that colloidal gold nanorods (AuNRs) can be actively targeted towards phagocytic macrophages that exhibit high intrinsic accumulation and infiltration into solid tumors. Macrolide-functionalized gold nanorods were preferentially delivered to tumor-associated macrophage (TAM) cells and selectively induced TAM-dependent cytotoxicity towards breast cancer cells in co-culture. Because TAMs migrate freely in circulation,[7] bypass the blood–brain barrier,[8] and extensively accumulate/infiltrate into breast tumors,[9] these data show that macrophage-targeting gold nanoparticles can serve as promising candidates for targeted cancer therapy.
