An amphiphilic tris(dibenzoylmethanato)europium(III) (Eu(DBM)(3)) coordinated P(MMA-co-EIPPMMA)-co-P(NIPAAm-co-NDAPM) copolymer was synthesized, which exhibited good biocompatibility and emitted strong red luminescence (MMA, methyl methacrylate; EIPPMMA, 4-(1-ethyl-1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthrolin-2-yl)phenyl methacrylate; NIPAAm, N-isopropylacrylamide; NDAPM, (N-(3-dimethylamino)propyl)methacrylamide). The copolymer could self-assemble into micelles of size around 260 nm, and the micelles were thermosensitive at around body temperature. The drug-loaded micelles showed thermosensitive controlled drug release, and the paclitaxel loaded micelles were capable of being internalized into the tumor cells (A549) and exhibited obvious inhibition to the growth of A549 cells. Importantly, in vivo study showed the self-assembled micelles of Eu(DBM)(3) coordinated P(MMA-co-EIPPMMA)-co-P(NIPAAm-co-NDAPM) copolymer uptaken by the larvae of zebrafish could be easily tracked and be eliminated from the body within several days.
