An urgent challenge for imaging-guided disease-targeted multimodal therapy is to develop the appropriate multifunctional agents to meet the requirements for potential applications. Here, a rigid cyclohexenyl substitution in the middle of a polymethine linker and two asymmetrical amphipathic N-alkyl side chains to indocyanine green (ICG) (the only FDA-approved NIR contrast agent) are introduced, and a new analog, IR-DBI, is developed with simultaneous cancer-cell mitochondrial targeting, NIR imaging, and chemo-/PDT/PTT/multimodal therapeutic activities. The asymmetrical and amphipathic structural modification renders IR-DBI a close binding to albumin protein site II to form a drug-protein complex and primarily facilitates its preferential accumulation at tumor sites via the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect. The released IR-DBI dye is further actively taken up by cancer cells through organic-anion-transporting polypeptide transporters, and the lipophilic cationic property leads to its selective accumulation in the mitochondria of cancer cells. Finally, based on the high albumin-binding affinity, IR-DBI is modified into human serum albumin (HSA) via self-assembly to produce a nanosized complex, which exhibits significant improvement in the cancer targeting and multimodal cancer treatment with better biocompatibility. This finding may present a practicable strategy to develop small-molecule-based cancer theranostic agents for simultaneous cancer diagnostics and therapeutics
