Abstract: The present invention relates to: a photothermal agent which includes a mussel adhesive protein; and photothermal-responsive nanoparticles that generate a biocompatible gas by means of light and heat and release a drug. Nanoparticles according to the present invention exhibit a photothermal effect when near-infrared rays are applied thereto, and may be applied to trimodality therapy in which a biocompatible gas is generated by means of light and heat to induce the release of a drug.
