Figure Lengend Snippet: A Representative IVIS imaging of the tumor-bearing mice treated with free IR780 (control), NPs loaded with IR780, and p28-NPs loaded with IR780, respectively. The left image is luciferase fluorescence indicating the tumor size, and the right image is the IR780 signal indicating the accumulation of IR780 particles. B IVIS imaging of the isolated organs showed the IR780 signal in the brain, heart, liver, spleen, lung, and kidney of mice receiving the corresponding treatments. C The semiquantification of the NPs-IR780 signal from the isolated organs. D The controlled release of p28-NPs-FAT in PBS. E The plasma concentration of RhoB was detected at predetermined time intervals after intravenous injection of p28-NPs loaded with RhoB. F Kaplan‒Meier curves showing the survival of the untreated or treated mice in the experimental groups. ( 1 p: comparing the PBS with fatostatin (FAT) treatment group; 2 p: comparing the PBS with NPs-FAT treatment group; 3 p: comparing the PBS with p28-NPs-FAT treatment group.) G Representative bioluminescence images from IVIS imaging showed the tumor luciferase signal in the mice of different treatment groups at 1, 3, and 5 weeks. H Representative images of H&E staining of brain sections of the different groups. I Representative IHC images showing the expression levels of p-AKT, p-mTOR, p-4EBP1, GPX4, E-ca, and N-ca in brain sections.
