Osteosarcoma is a primary solid neoplasm, about 20% of which is derived from malignant cancerous bone tissue. It usually grows on the metaphysis of long bone, and often metastasizes to lungs. Unfortunately, it is prevalent amongst teenagers and has the highest morbidity. Although the current chemotherapy significantly improves patient’s quality of life, 40–50% of the patients die due to pulmonary metastasis.[1] After a decade’s effort, osteosarcoma was still treated with limited success. Consequently, researchers have turned to biomaterials with antitumor effects.[2, 3] Ideally, such biomaterials should not only fill the bone defects caused by the tumor surgery, but also inhibit tumor recurrence. Hence, this work aims to integrate the two functions into one biomaterial.Hydroxyapatite (HA) nanoparticles (HANs) are the main inorganic mineral in bone and tooth enamel.[4] Recently doping certain trace element into the HA structure has attracted much attention in order to modify HA functions. Various trace elements, such as magnesium,[5] strontium,[6] silicon,[7] and zinc,[8] have been incorporated into the HA crystals for the purpose of osteogenesis stimulation and inflammatory suppression. However, selenium doping has been seriously ignored although it is a nutritional trace element, which has been intimately associated with many health problems, such as arthropathy and cardiomyopathy, thyroid function, immune function and reproductive function.[9–11] It is known that sodium selenite, a typical supplementation form of selenium, can inhibit the proliferation of various kinds of cancer cells via its apoptosis-inducing effect.[12–14] In addition, nanomaterials have shown great potential in treating cancer.[15–19] Therefore, we propose that the incorporation of selenite ions into HA crystals might be an innovative idea for treating osteosarcoma. Herein, for the first time, we proposed to investigate the HANs doped with selenite ions (HANSe) for in vivo targeted treatment of osteosarcoma of human origin. Firstly, an in situ nude mouse model of osteosarcoma was constructed. Then the
