Abstract：As a kind of three-dimensional carbon materials, mesoporous carbon nanospheres(MCN) perform high biocompatibility, high specific surface area and controllable particle and pore size, and therefore become good carriers for delivering drugs, cell dyes, photosensitizers and so on for biomedical usage. Recently, there is a big progress on its synthetic methodologies and theranostic functions, thus showing great potential in the application of bioimaging, targeted drug delivery, controllable drug release, phototherapy, sonodynamic therapy and biocatalysis. Studies on synthetic methodologies and diagnosis and treatment of cancer based on mesoporous carbon nanospheres are reviewed to provide support for the further studies.
