Focused on the performance promotion of organic small molecular dyes based photothermal agents via non-chemical modification, we found that heat-assisted binding of human serum albumin (HSA) to the dye causes shrinkage of the protein and encapsulate the dye to form nanoparticles. This revolutionizes the photostability of small molecule dyes which further improves their photothermal conversion efficiency and tumor ablation performance as photothermal agents significantly. In this work, the obtained photothermal agent named HSA-P2-T could accumulate in tumor and induce 22 ℃ enhancement of the tumor in xenograft models upon ultra-low dose (0.1 W/cm²) laser irradiation, which, as far as we know, is the lowest laser dose used in vivo photothermal therapy. Utilizing HSA-P2-T, we realized tumor ablation upon twice intravenous injections of the nanoparticles and four photothermal treatments.
