Recently, theranostic has drawn tremendous attention by virtue of the nanotechnology development and new material exploration. Herein, we reported a novel theranostic system by loading Au nanoclusters (AuNCs) and Chlorin e6 (photosensitizer, Ce6) onto the monolayer nanosheet surface of Gd-doped layered double hydroxide (Gd-LDH). The as-prepared Ce6&AuNCs/Gd-LDH exhibits a largely enhanced fluorescence quantum yield (QY) of 18.5% relative to pristine AuNCs (QY = 3.1%) as well as superior T1 magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) performance (r1 = 17.57 mM−1s−1) compared with commercial MRI contrast agent (Gd(III)-1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid (Gd-DOTA): r1 ≈ 3.4 mM−1s−1), resulting from a synergistic effect between AuNCs and Gd-LDH. In addition, both in vitro and in vivo therapeutic evaluations demonstrate an efficient dual-modality imaging guided anticancer performance, especially the synergetic enhanced magnetic resonance/fluorescence (MR/FL) visualization of tumor site. Therefore, this work demonstrates a successful paradigm for the design and preparation of LDHs monolayer-based theranostic material, which holds great promises in practical applications.
