Abstract
Metal ions have attracted a lot of interest in antitumor therapy due to their unique mechanism of action. However, multiple death mechanisms associate with metal ions to synergistic antitumors have few studies mainly due to the serious challenges in designing and building metal-associated multimodal treatment platforms. Hence, a series of glutathione-activatable CaCu-based metal-organic-frameworks loaded with doxorubicin and ovalbumin are successfully designed and synthesized with an "all in one" strategy, which is modified by galactosamine-linked hyaluronic acid to prepare multimodal treatment platform (SCC/DOX@OVA-HG) for targeted delivery and synergistic antitumor therapy. SCC/DOX@OVA-HG can be rapidly degraded by the overexpressed glutathione and then releases the "cargoes" in the tumor microenvironment. The released Cu+ efficiently catalyzes H2O2 to produce highly toxic ROS for CDT, and the up-regulation of calcium ion concentration in tumor cells induced by the released Ca2+ enables calcium overload therapy, which synergically enhances the metal-related death pattern. Meanwhile, OVA combined with Ca2+/Cu2+ further activates macrophages into an M1-like phenotype to accelerate tumor cell death through immunotherapy. Besides, the released DOX can also insert into the DNA double helix for chemotherapy. Consequently, the developed SCC/DOX@OVA-HG reveals significantly improved antitumor efficacy through a multimodal synergistic therapy of chemotherapy, chemodynamic therapy, calcium overload, and immunotherapy.

Abstract
Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) utilizes ultrasonic excitation of a sensitizer to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) to destroy tumor. Two dimensional (2D) black phosphorus (BP) is an emerging sonosensitizer that can promote ROS production to be used in SDT but it alone lacks active targeting effect and showed low therapy efficiency. In this study, a stable dispersion of integrated micro-nanoplatform consisting of BP nanosheets loaded and Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) connected microbubbles was introduced for ultrasound imaging guided and magnetic field directed precision SDT of breast cancer. The targeted ultrasound imaging at 18 MHz and efficient SDT effects at 1 MHz were demonstrated both in-vitro and in-vivo on the breast cancer. The magnetic microbubbles targeted deliver BP nanosheets to the tumor site under magnetic navigation and increased the uptake of BP nanosheets by inducing cavitation effect for increased cell membrane permeability via ultrasound targeted microbubble destruction (UTMD). The mechanism of SDT by magnetic black phosphorus microbubbles was proposed to be originated from the ROS triggered mitochondria mediated apoptosis by up-regulating the pro-apoptotic proteins while down-regulating the anti-apoptotic proteins. In conclusion, the ultrasound theranostic was realized via the magnetic black phosphorus microbubbles, which could realize targeting and catalytic sonodynamic therapy.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2024; 63:e202402291.

Abstract
Developing combination chemotherapy systems with high drug loading efficiency at predetermined drug ratios to achieve a synergistic effect is important for cancer therapy. Herein, a polymeric dual-drug nanoparticle composed of a Pt(IV) prodrug derived from oxaliplatin and a mitochondria-targeting cytotoxic peptide is constructed through emulsion interfacial polymerization, which processes high drug loading efficiency and high biocompatibility. The depolymerization of polymeric dual-drug nanoparticle and the activation of Pt prodrug can be effectively triggered by the acidic tumor environment extracellularly and the high levels of glutathione intracellularly in cancer cells, respectively. The utilization of mitochondria-targeting peptide can inhibit ATP-dependent processes including drug efflux and DNA damage repair. This leads to increased accumulation of Pt-drugs within cancer cells. Eventually, the polymeric dual-drug nanoparticle demonstrates appreciable antitumor effects on both cell line derived and patient derived xenograft lung cancer model. It is highly anticipated that the polymeric dual-or multi-drug systems can be applied for combination chemotherapy to achieve enhanced anticancer activity and reduced side effects.

Abstract
Single-atom catalysts (SACs) have attracted interest in photodynamic therapy (PDT), while they are normally limited by the side effects on normal tissues and the interference from the Tumor Microenvironment (TME). Here we show a TME-activated in situ synthesis of SACs for efficient tumor-specific water-based PDT. Upon reduction by upregulated GSH in TME, C3N4-Mn SACs are obtained in TME with Mn atomically coordinated into the cavity of C3N4 nanosheets. This in situ synthesis overcomes toxicity from random distribution and catalyst release in healthy tissues. Based on the Ligand-to-Metal charge transfer (LMCT) process, C3N4-Mn SACs exhibit enhanced absorption in the red-light region. Thereby, a water-splitting process is induced by C3N4-Mn SACs under 660 nm irradiation, which initiates the O2-independent generation of highly toxic hydroxyl radical (·OH) for cancer-specific PDT. Subsequently, the ·OH-initiated lipid peroxidation process is demonstrated to devote effective cancer cell death. The in situ synthesized SACs facilitate the precise cancer-specific conversion of inert H2O to reactive ·OH, which facilitates efficient cancer therapy in female mice. This strategy achieves efficient and precise cancer therapy, not only avoiding the side effects on normal tissues but also overcoming tumor hypoxia.

Abstract
Cancer cells typically display redox imbalance compared with normal cells due to increased metabolic rate, accumulated mitochondrial dysfunction, elevated cell signaling, and accelerated peroxisomal activities. This redox imbalance may regulate gene expression, alter protein stability, and modulate existing cellular programs, resulting in inefficient treatment modalities. Therapeutic strategies targeting intra- or extracellular redox states of cancer cells at varying state of progression may trigger programmed cell death if exceeded a certain threshold, enabling therapeutic selectivity and overcoming cancer resistance to radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Nanotechnology provides new opportunities for modulating redox state in cancer cells due to their excellent designability and high reactivity. Various nanomaterials are widely researched to enhance highly reactive substances (free radicals) production, disrupt the endogenous antioxidant defense systems, or both. Here, the physiological features of redox imbalance in cancer cells are described and the challenges in modulating redox state in cancer cells are illustrated. Then, nanomaterials that regulate redox imbalance are classified and elaborated upon based on their ability to target redox regulations. Finally, the future perspectives in this field are proposed. It is hoped this review provides guidance for the design of nanomaterials-based approaches involving modulating intra- or extracellular redox states for cancer therapy, especially for cancers resistant to radiotherapy or chemotherapy, etc.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prognosis for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains suboptimal, characterized by high recurrence and metastasis rates. Although metalloimmunotherapy has shown potential in combating tumor proliferation, recurrence and metastasis, current apoptosis-based metalloimmunotherapy fails to elicit sufficient immune response for HCC. RESULTS A smart responsive bimetallic nanovaccine was constructed to induce immunogenic cell death (ICD) through pyroptosis and enhance the efficacy of the cGAS-STING pathway. The nanovaccine was composed of manganese-doped mesoporous silica as a carrier, loaded with sorafenib (SOR) and modified with MIL-100 (Fe), where Fe3+, SOR, and Mn2+ were synchronized and released into the tumor with the help of the tumor microenvironment (TME). Afterward, Fe3+ worked synergistically with SOR-induced immunogenic pyroptosis (via both the classical and nonclassical signaling pathways), causing the outflow of abundant immunogenic factors, which contributes to dendritic cell (DC) maturation, and the exposure of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA). Subsequently, the exposed dsDNA and Mn2+ jointly activated the cGAS-STING pathway and induced the release of type I interferons, which further led to DC maturation. Moreover, Mn2+-related T1 magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was used to visually evaluate the smart response functionality of the nanovaccine. CONCLUSION The utilization of metallic nanovaccines to induce pyroptosis-mediated immune activation provides a promising paradigm for HCC treatment.

Abstract
Inhibition of glutamine metabolism in tumor cells can cause metabolic compensation-mediated glycolysis enhancement and PD-L1 upregulation-induced immune evasion, significantly limiting the therapeutic efficacy of glutamine inhibitors. Here, inspired by the specific binding of receptor and ligand, a PD-L1-targeting metabolism and immune regulator (PMIR) are constructed by decorating the glutaminase inhibitor (BPTES)-loading zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF) with PD-L1-targeting peptides for regulating the metabolism within the tumor microenvironment (TME) to improve immunotherapy. At tumor sites, PMIR inhibits glutamine metabolism of tumor cells for elevating glutamine levels within the TME to improve the function of immune cells. Ingeniously, the accompanying PD-L1 upregulation on tumor cells causes self-amplifying accumulation of PMIR through PD-L1 targeting, while also blocking PD-L1, which has the effects of converting enemies into friends. Meanwhile, PMIR exactly offsets the compensatory glycolysis, while disrupting the redox homeostasis in tumor cells via the cooperation of components of the ZIF and BPTES. These together cause immunogenic cell death of tumor cells and relieve PD-L1-mediated immune evasion, further reshaping the immunosuppressive TME and evoking robust immune responses to effectively suppress bilateral tumor progression and metastasis. This work proposes a rational strategy to surmount the obstacles in glutamine inhibition for boosting existing clinical treatments.

Abstract
Prussian blue (PB)-based nanomedicines constructed from metal ion coordination remain restricted due to their limited therapeutic properties, and their manifold evaluation complexity still needs to be unraveled. Owing to the high similarities of its ionic form to iron (Fe) and the resulting cellular homeostasis disruption performance, physiologically unstable and low-toxicity gallium (Ga) has garnered considerable attention clinically as an anti-carcinogen. Herein, Ga-based nanoparticles (NPs) with diverse Ga contents are fabricated in one step using PB with abundant Fe sites as a substrate for Ga substitution, which aims to overcome the deficiencies of both and develop an effective nanomedicine. A systematic comparison of their physicochemical properties effectively reveals the saturated Ga introduction state during the synthesis process, further identifying the most Ga-enriched PB NPs with a substitution content of >50% as a nanomedicine for subsequent exploration. It is verified that the Ga interference mechanisms mediated by the most Ga-enriched PB NPs are implicated in metabolic disorders, ionic homeostasis disruption, cellular structure dysfunction, apoptosis, autophagy, and target activation of the mammalian target of the rapamycin (mTOR) and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways. This study provides significant guidance on exploiting clinically approved agents for Ga interference and lays the foundation for the next generation of PB-based theranostic agents.

Abstract
Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) is an emerging treatment method. In comparison with photodynamic therapy (PDT), SDT exhibits deep penetration, high cell membrane permeability, and free exposure to light capacity. Unfortunately, owing to inappropriate ultrasound parameter selection, poor targeting of sonosensitizers, and the complex tumor environment, SDT is frequently ineffective. In this review, we describe the approaches for selecting ultrasound parameters and how to develop sonosensitizers to increase targeting and improve adverse tumor microenvironments. Furthermore, the potential of combining SDT with other treatment methods, such as chemotherapy, chemodynamic therapy, photodynamic therapy, photothermal therapy, and immunotherapy, is discussed to further increase the treatment efficiency of SDT.

Abstract
Intra/extracellular ion content affects the growth and metastasis of tumor cells, as well as the efficacy of various antitumor therapies. Herein, a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor (CAI) is loaded onto pH-responsive calcium carbonate (CaCO3 ) nanoparticles and then modify theses nanoparticles with liposomes to obtain biocompatible CaCO3 /CAI@Lipsome (CCL) for enhance tumor radio-immunotherapy. CCL can specially decompose in tumor microenvironment, releasing calcium ion (Ca2+ ) and CAI, as well as increasing the pH value of extracellular fluid. CAI restrains the flow of hydrogen ion (H+ ) inside and outside the tumor cells, resulting in the reversal of tumor acidic microenvironment and the increase of intracellular H+ , both of which can improve the sensitivity of tumor to radiotherapy. Afterward, the increased intracellular H+ together with radiotherapy-causes reactive oxygen species promotes calcium influx, leading to cellular calcium overload. Moreover, the CCL-tailored content of H+ and Ca2+ strengthens radiotherapy-induced immunogenic cell death and dendritic cell maturation, amplifying systemic anti-tumor adaptive immunity. Meanwhile, macrophages in the CCL-treated tumors are polarized from pro-tumor M2 to anti-tumor M1 under X-ray exposure, owing to the neutralization of tumor acidic microenvironment and enhances Ca2+ content. Therefore, multi-directional regulation of the intra/extra tumor cell pH/calcium by simple nano-preparation would provide a powerful way to improve the efficacy of radio-immunotherapy.

Abstract
A malignant tumour has hypoxic cells of varying degrees. The more severe the hypoxic degree, the more difficult the prognosis of the tumour and the higher the recurrence rate. Therefore, tumour hypoxia imaging is crucial. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) shows its strength in high resolution, depth of penetration and noninvasiveness. However, it needs more excellent contrast agents (CAs) to combat the complex tumour microenvironment (TME) and increased targeting of tumours to enhance clinical safety. Many research studies have focused on developing hypoxia-responsive MRI CAs that take advantage of the unique characteristics of hypoxic tumours. The low oxygen pressure, acidic TME, and up-regulated redox molecule levels found in hypoxic tumours serve as biological stimuli for nanoformulations that can accurately image the hypoxic region. This review highlights the importance of developing bioparameter-directed nanoformulations as MRI CAs for accurate tumour diagnosis. The design strategies and mechanisms of tumour-hypoxia imaging with nanoformulations are exemplified, with a focus on pH-responsiveness, redox-responsiveness, and p(O2)-responsiveness. The promising future of bioparameter-responsive nanoformulations for accurate tumour diagnosis and personalised cancer treatment is discussed.

Abstract
Considerable efforts have been made to develop nanoparticle-based magnetic resonance contrast agents (CAs) with high relaxivity. The prolonged rotational correlation time (τR) induced relaxivity enhancement is commonly recognized, while the effect of the water coordination numbers (q) on the relaxivity of nanoparticle-based CAs gets less attention. Herein, we first investigated the relationship between T1 relaxivity (r1) and q in manganese-based hybrid micellar CAs and proposed a strategy to enhance the relaxivity by increasing q. Hybrid micelles with different ratios of amphiphilic manganese complex (MnL) and DSPE-PEG2000 were prepared, whose q values were evaluated by Oxygen-17-NMR spectroscopy. Micelles with lower manganese doping density exhibit increased q and enhanced relaxivity, corroborating the conception. In vivo sentinel lymph node (SLN) imaging demonstrates that DSPE-PEG/MnL micelles could differentiate metastatic SLN from inflammatory LN. Our strategy makes it feasible for relaxivity enhancement by modulating q, providing new approaches for the structural design of high-performance hybrid micellar CAs.

Abstract
Neurological diseases are the foremost cause of disability and the second leading cause of death worldwide. Owing to the special microenvironment of neural tissues and biological characteristics of neural cells, a considerable number of neurological disorders are currently incurable. In the past few years, the development of nanoplatforms based on metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) has broadened opportunities for offering sensitive diagnosis/monitoring and effective therapy of neurology-related diseases. In this article, the obstacles for neurotherapeutics, including delayed diagnosis and misdiagnosis, the existence of blood brain barrier (BBB), off-target treatment, irrepressible inflammatory storm/oxidative stress, and irreversible nerve cell death are summarized. Correspondingly, MOFs-based diagnostic/monitoring strategies such as neuroimaging and biosensors (electrochemistry, fluorometry, colorimetry, electrochemiluminescence, etc.) and MOFs-based therapeutic strategies including higher BBB permeability, targeting specific lesion sites, attenuation of neuroinflammation/oxidative stress as well as regeneration of nerve cells, are extensively highlighted for the management of neurological diseases. Finally, the challenges of the present research from perspective of clinical translation are discussed, hoping to facilitate interdisciplinary studies at the intersections between MOFs-based nanoplatforms and neurotheranostics.

Abstract
Hydrogels, as one of the most feasible soft biomaterials, have gained considerable attention in therapeutic applications by virtue of their tunable properties including superior patient compliance, good biocompatibility and biodegradation, and high cargo-loading efficiency. However, hydrogel application is still limited by some challenges like inefficient encapsulation, easy leakage of loaded cargoes, and the lack of controllability. Recently, nanoarchitecture-integrated hydrogel systems were found to be therapeutics with optimized properties, extending their bioapplication. In this review, we briefly presented the category of hydrogels according to their synthetic materials and further discussed the advantages in bioapplication. Additionally, various applications of nanoarchitecture hybrid hydrogels in biomedical engineering are systematically summarized, including cancer therapy, wound healing, cardiac repair, bone regeneration, diabetes therapy, and obesity therapy. Last, the current challenges, limitations, and future perspectives in the future development of nanoarchitecture-integrated flexible hydrogels are addressed.

Abstract
Malignant tumours are a serious threat to human health. Traditional chemotherapy has achieved breakthrough improvements but also has significant detrimental effects, such as the development of drug resistance, immunosuppression, and even systemic toxicity. Photothermal therapy (PTT) is an emerging cancer therapy. Under light irradiation, the phototherapeutic agent converts optical energy into thermal energy and induces the hyperthermic death of target cells. To date, numerous photothermal agents have been developed. Prussian blue (PB) nanoparticles are among the most promising photothermal agents due to their excellent physicochemical properties, including photoacoustic and magnetic resonance imaging properties, photothermal conversion performance, and enzyme-like activity. By the construction of suitably designed PB-based nanotherapeutics, enhanced photothermal performance, targeting ability, multimodal therapy, and imaging-guided cancer therapy can be effectively and feasibly achieved. In this review, the recent advances in PB-based photothermal combinatorial therapy and imaging-guided cancer therapy are comprehensively summarized. Finally, the potential obstacles of future research and clinical translation are discussed.

Abstract
Multidrug resistance (MDR) and metastasis in cancer have become increasingly serious problems since antitumor efficiency is greatly restricted by a single therapeutic modality and the insensitive tumor microenvironment (TME). Herein, metal-phenolic network-functionalized nanoparticles (t-P@TFP NPs) are designed to realize multiple therapeutic modalities and reshape the TME from insensitive to sensitive under multimodal imaging monitoring. After a single irradiation, a near-infrared laser-activated multistage reaction occurs. t-P@TFP NPs trigger the phase transition of perfluoropentane (PFP) to release tannic acid (TA)/ferric ion (Fe3+ )-coated paclitaxel (PTX) and cause hyperthermia in the tumor region to efficiently kill cancer cells. Additionally, PTX is released after the disassembly of the TA-Fe3+ film by the abundant adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in the malignant tumor, which concurrently inhibits ATP-dependent drug efflux to improve sensitivity to chemotherapeutic agents. Furthermore, hyperthermia-induced immunogenic cell death (ICD) transforms "cold" tumors into "hot" tumors with the assistance of PD-1/PD-L1 blockade to evoke antitumor immunogenicity. This work carefully reveals the mechanisms underlying the abilities of these multifunctional NPs, providing new insights into combating the proliferation and metastasis of multidrug-resistant tumors.

A copper-metal organic framework enhances the photothermal and chemodynamic properties of polydopamine for melanoma therapy. Acta Biomater 2023; 158:660-672. [PMID: 36640955 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2023.01.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 16.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/21/2022] [Revised: 12/18/2022] [Accepted: 01/05/2023] [Indexed: 01/13/2023]
Abstract
The combination of photothermal treatment and chemodynamic therapy has attracted extensive attention for improving therapeutic effects and compensating the insufficiency of monotherapy. In this work, a copper-metal organic framework (Cu-BTC) was used to augment the photothermal effect of polydopamine (PDA) and endow it with a chemodynamic ability by constructing a Cu-BTC@PDA nanocomposite. Density functional theory calculations revealed that the plasmonic vibrations formed by the d-d transition of Cu at the Fermi level in Cu-BTC@PDA could enhance the photothermal performance of PDA. In addition, more Cu2+ released from Cu-BTC@PDA in the acidic microenvironment of the tumor was then reduced to Cu+ by glutathione (GSH) and further catalyzed H2O2 to generate more toxic hydroxyl radical (•OH), which synergized with photothermal treatment for melanoma therapy. Furthermore, Cu-BTC@PDA could quickly and effectively kill bacteria under the action of PTT, and the sustained release of Cu ions could contribute to the long-term and stable bacteriostatic ability of the material. This sustained release of Cu ions could also promote the cell migration and angiogenesis, and upregulate the expression of COL-, TGF-, and VEGF-related genes to accelerate wound healing. This multifunctional nanomaterial has potential application in the treatment of melanoma and repair of wounds. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: We constructed a multifunctional nanoplatform (Cu-BTC@PDA) by two steps. This nanoplatform can not only perform cascade catalysis in the tumor microenvironment to generate more toxic hydroxyl radical (•OH), but also synergize with photothermal treatment for melanoma therapy. Additionally, Cu-BTC@PDA possesses enhanced photothermal performance through the plasmonic vibrations formed by the d-d transition of Cu at the Fermi level in Cu-BTC@PDA, which is revealed by DFT calculations. And Cu-BTC@PDA shows good antitumor, antibacterial, and wound healing properties in vivo and in vitro. Such a multifunctional nanomaterial has potential application in the treatment of melanoma and repair of wounds.

Abstract
New nanotechnologies for imaging molecules are widely being applied to visualize the expression of specific molecules (e.g., ions, biomarkers) for disease diagnosis. Among various nanoplatforms, nanozymes, which exhibit enzyme-like catalytic activities in vivo, have gained tremendously increasing attention in molecular imaging due to their unique properties such as diverse enzyme-mimicking activities, excellent biocompatibility, ease of surface tenability, and low cost. In addition, by integrating different nanoparticles with superparamagnetic, photoacoustic, fluorescence, and photothermal properties, the nanoenzymes are able to increase the imaging sensitivity and accuracy for better understanding the complexity and the biological process of disease. Moreover, these functions encourage the utilization of nanozymes as therapeutic agents to assist in treatment. In this review, we focus on the applications of nanozymes in molecular imaging and discuss the use of peroxidase (POD), oxidase (OXD), catalase (CAT), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) with different imaging modalities. Further, the applications of nanozymes for cancer treatment, bacterial infection, and inflammation image-guided therapy are discussed. Overall, this review aims to provide a complete reference for research in the interdisciplinary fields of nanotechnology and molecular imaging to promote the advancement and clinical translation of novel biomimetic nanozymes.

Abstract
The slightest change in the extra/intracellular concentration of metal ions results in amplified effects by signaling cascades that regulate both cell fate within the tumor microenvironment and immune status, which influences the network of antitumor immunity through various pathways. Based on the fact that metal ions influence the fate of cancer cells and participate in both innate and adaptive immunity, they are widely applied in antitumor therapy as immune modulators. Moreover, nanomedicine possesses the advantage of precise delivery and responsive release, which can perfectly remedy the drawbacks of metal ions, such as low target selectivity and systematic toxicity, thus providing an ideal platform for metal ion application in cancer treatment. Emerging evidence has shown that immunotherapy applied with nanometallic materials may significantly enhance therapeutic efficacy. Here, we focus on the physiopathology of metal ions in tumorigenesis and discuss several breakthroughs regarding the use of nanometallic materials in antitumor immunotherapeutics. These findings demonstrate the prominence of metal ion-based nanomedicine in cancer therapy and prophylaxis, providing many new ideas for basic immunity research and clinical application. Consequently, we provide innovative insights into the comprehensive understanding of the application of metal ions combined with nanomedicine in cancer immunotherapy in the past few years.

Abstract
Phototheranostic based on photothermal therapy (PTT) and photoacoustic imaging (PAI), as one of avant-garde medical techniques, have sparked growing attention because it allows noninvasive, deeply penetrative, and highly selective and effective therapy. Among a variety of phototheranostic nanoagents, single-component inorganic nanostructures are found to be novel and attractive PAI and PTT combined nanotheranostic agents and received tremendous attention, which not only exhibit structural controllability, high tunability in physiochemical properties, size-dependent optical properties, high reproducibility, simple composition, easy functionalization, and simple synthesis process, but also can be endowed with multiple therapeutic and imaging functions, realizing the superior therapy result along with bringing less foreign materials into body, reducing systemic side effects and improving the bioavailability. In this review, according to their synthetic components, conventional single-component inorganic nanostructures are divided into metallic nanostructures, metal dichalcogenides, metal oxides, carbon based nanostructures, upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs), metal organic frameworks (MOFs), MXenes, graphdiyne and other nanostructures. On the basis of this category, their detailed applications in PAI guide PTT of tumor treatment are systematically reviewed, including synthesis strategies, corresponding performances, and cancer diagnosis and therapeutic efficacy. Before these, the factors to influence on photothermal effect and the principle of in vivo PAI are briefly presented. Finally, we also comprehensively and thoroughly discussed the limitation, potential barriers, future perspectives for research and clinical translation of this single-component inorganic nanoagent in biomedical therapeutics.

Abstract
Glucose oxidase (GOD)-mediated starvation therapy (ST) that causes intratumoral glucose depletion is a promising strategy for tumor treatment. However, the ultimate efficacy is inevitably limited by tumor hypoxia, as oxygen is a key component in the consumption of glucose by GOD. In this study, a kind of glutathione (GSH)-responsive organosilica hybrid micelles loaded with Mn3 O4 and GOD (denoted as Mn3 O4 @PDOMs-GOD) is ingeniously designed for enhanced ST and chemodynamic therapy (CDT). Specifically, the internalized Mn3 O4 @PDOMs-GOD in tumor cells consumes intracellular glucose and oxygen (O2 ) under the catalysis of GOD to generate hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 ), which is subsequently decomposed by Mn3 O4 to liberate O2 . This cyclically regenerated O2 will form a virtuous cycle of O2 and H2 O2 compensation to enhance the ST outcome. Meanwhile, Mn3 O4 can oxidize and deplete the overexpressed GSH in the tumor microenvironment (TME) to release Mn2+ , which then catalyzes H2 O2 into highly toxic hydroxyl radicals (·OH) to accomplish chemodynamic therapy (CDT). Both in vitro and in vivo experiment results demonstrate the significant antitumor efficacy of Mn3 O4 @PDOMs-GOD by the cooperatively enhanced ST and CDT, suggesting the feasibility to develop promising therapeutic platforms with higher treatment efficacies.

Abstract
Distressing and lethal cardiotoxicity is one of the major severe side effects of using anthracycline drugs such as doxorubicin for cancer chemotherapy. The currently available strategy to counteract these side effects relies on the administration of cardioprotective agents such as Dexrazoxane, which unfortunately has unsatisfactory efficacy and produces secondary myelosuppression. In the present work, aiming to target the characteristic ferrous iron overload in the doxorubicin-contaminated cardiac microenvironment, a biocompatible nanomedicine prepared by the polyvinylpyrrolidone-directed assembly of magnesium hexacyanoferrate nanocatalysts is designed and constructed for highly efficient intracellular ferrous ion capture and antioxidation. The synthesized magnesium hexacyanoferrate nanocatalysts display prominent superoxide radical dismutation and catalytic H2O2 decomposition activities to eliminate cytotoxic radical species. Excellent in vitro and in vivo cardioprotection from these magnesium hexacyanoferrate nanocatalysts are demonstrated, and the underlying intracellular ferrous ion traffic regulation mechanism has been explored in detail. The marked cardioprotective effect and biocompatibility render these magnesium hexacyanoferrate nanocatalysts to be highly promising and clinically transformable cardioprotective agents that can be employed during cancer treatment.

Abstract
The terrible morbidity and mortality of malignant tumors urgently require innovative therapeutics, especially for apoptosis-resistant tumors. Pyroptosis, a pro-inflammatory form of programmed cell death (PCD), is featured with pore formation in plasma membrane, cell swelling with giant bubbles, and leakage of cytoplasmic pro-inflammatory cytokines, which can remodel the tumor immune microenvironment by stimulating a "cold" tumor microenvironment to be an immunogenic "hot" tumor microenvironment, and consequently augment the therapeutic efficiency of malignant tumors. Benefiting from current advances in nanotechnology, nanomedicine is extensively applied to potentiate, enable, and augment pyroptosis for enhancing cancer-therapeutic efficacy and specificity. This review provides a concentrated summary and discussion of the most recent progress achieved in this emerging field, highlighting the nanomedicine-enabled/augmented specific pyroptosis strategy for favoring the construction of next-generation nanomedicines to efficiently induce PCD. It is highly expected that the further clinical translation of nanomedicine can be accelerated by inducing pyroptotic cell death based on bioactive nanomedicines.

Abstract
The critical role of transition metal dyshomeostasis in Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology poses demands of in vivo imaging for brain copper levels. Nanostructured probes afford prolonged retention time, increased accumulation, and enhanced photostability; however, their development for activatable photoacoustic (PA) imaging remains largely unexplored. We develop a principle of concept for activable PA imaging using in situ cation exchange of ultrathin zinc selenide (ZnSe) nanoplatelets for monitoring brain copper levels in AD mice. We start from quantitative modeling of optical absorption, time-resolved temperature field, and thermal expansion of copper selenide (CuSe) nanocrystals of different morphologies and reveal that ultrathin nanoplatelets afford substantial enhancement of near-infrared (NIR) absorption and PA pressures as compared to nanodots and nanoparticles. By tethering with a blood-brain barrier (BBB)-targeting peptide ligand, the ultrathin ZnSe nanoplatelet probe efficiently transports across the BBB and rapidly exchanges with endogenous copper ions, boosting activatable PA imaging of brain copper levels. We also demonstrate that the efficient exchange of ZnSe nanoplatelets with copper ions can reduce oxidative stress of neurons and protect neuronal cells from apoptosis. The nanoplatelet probe provides a paradigm for activatable PA imaging of brain copper levels, highlighting its potential for pathophysiologic study of AD.

Abstract
Diagnostics is an important part of medical practice. The information required for diagnosis is typically collected by performing diagnostic tests, some of which include imaging. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is one of the most widely used and effective imaging techniques. To improve the sensitivity and specificity of MRI, contrast agents are used. In this review, the usage of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and composite materials based on them as contrast agents for MRI is discussed. MOFs are crystalline porous coordination polymers. Due to their huge design variety and high density of metal ions, they have been studied as a highly promising class of materials for developing MRI contrast agents. This review highlights the most important studies and focuses on the progress of the field over the last five years. The materials are classified based on their design and structural properties into three groups: MRI-active MOFs, composite materials based on MOFs, and MRI-active compounds loaded in MOFs. Moreover, an overview of MOF-based materials for heteronuclear MRI including 129Xe and 19F MRI is given.

Abstract
Poor tumor specificity is one of the key obstacles for clinical applications of nanotheranostic agents, consequently leading to serious side effects and unsatisfactory therapeutic efficacy. Herein, biomolecule-based nanohybrids (named as Hb-PDA-GOx) with multiple stimuli-responsiveness were designed and fabricated to enhance tumor-specific therapy. The nanohybrids embodied two proteins, i.e., hemoglobin (Hb) and glucose oxidase (GOx), which exhibited cascade catalytic activity selectively within the tumor microenvironment (TME). Specifically, GOx catalyzes the overexpressed glucose into gluconic acid and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), which not only initiated starvation therapy (ST) through cutting off the nutrition supply for carcinoma cells, but also provided H2O2 for sequential Fenton reaction induced by Hb that generating biotoxic hydroxyl radicals (•OH) for chemodynamic therapy (CDT). Moreover, localized heat generation from polydopamine (PDA) in the nanohybrids can implement photothermal therapy (PTT) and reinforce the CDT efficacy. Excitingly, effective eradication of solid tumors and significant suppression of metastatic tumors growth were achieved by utilizing Hb-PDA-GOx as a versatile theranostic agent. All these results had been verified by in vitro and/or in vivo experiments. In light of the superior anticancer effects and insignificant systemic toxicity, the as-fabricated biomolecule-based nanohybrids could be employed as a promising agent for tumor-specific therapy. More importantly, the high biocompatibility and biodegradability of the selected biomolecules would facilitate subsequent clinical translation. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: 1) A facile one-pot synthesis strategy was proposed to fabricate biomolecule-based tumor theranostic agent with high biocompatibility and biodegradability, which would facilitate subsequent clinical translation; 2) The as-developed theranostic agent was endowed with multiple stimuli-responsiveness for achieving tumor-specific and cascade-enhanced synergistic therapy; 3) The in vivo experiments demonstrated that the as-developed theranostic agent can not only effectively eradicate solid tumors, but also significantly suppress metastatic tumors growth.

Abstract
Overproduced hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a highly potential target for precise colorectal cancer (CRC) therapy; herein, a novel 5-Fu/Cur-P@HMPB nanomedicine is developed by coencapsulation of the natural anticancer drug curcumin (Cur) and the clinical chemotherapeutic drug 5-fluorouracil (5-Fu) into hollow mesoporous Prussian blue (HMPB). HMPB with low Fenton-catalytic activity can react with endogenous H2S and convert into high Fenton-catalytic Prussian white (PW), which can generate in situ a high level of •OH to activate chemodynamic therapy (CDT) and meanwhile trigger autophagy. Importantly, the autophagy can be amplified by Cur to induce autophagic cell death; moreover, Cur also acted as a specific chemosensitizer of the chemotherapy drug 5-Fu, achieving a good synergistic antitumor effect. Such a triple synergistic therapy based on a novel nanomedicine has been verified both in vitro and in vivo to have high efficacy in CRC treatment, showing promising potential in translational medicine.

Abstract
Quite a great proportion of known tumor cells carry mutation in TP53 gene, expressing mutant p53 proteins (mutp53) missing not only original genome protective activities but also acquiring gain-of-functions that favor tumor progression and impede treatment of cancers. Zinc ions were reported as agents cytocidal to mutp53-carrying cells by recovering p53 normal functions and abrogating mutp53. Meanwhile in a hyperthermia scenario, the function of wild type p53 is required to ablate tumors upon heat treatment hence the effects might be hindered in a mutp53 background. We herein synthesized zinc-doped Prussian blue (ZP) nanoparticles (NPs) to combine Zn2+ based and photothermal therapeutic effects. An efficient release of Zn2+ in a glutathione-enriched tumor intracellular microenvironment and a prominent photothermal conversion manifested ZP NPs as zinc ion carriers and photothermal agents. Apoptotic death and autophagic mutp53 elimination were found to be induced by ZP NPs in R280K mutp53-containing MDA-MB-231 cells and hyperthermia was rendered to ameliorate the treatment in vitro through further mutp53 elimination and increased cell death. The combinatorial therapeutic effect was also confirmed in vivo in a mouse model. This study might expand zinc delivery carriers and shed a light on potential interplay of hyperthermia and mutp53 degradation in cancer treatment.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease globally, and there is currently no effective treatment for this condition. Excessive accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and neuroinflammation are major contributors to PD pathogenesis. Herein, ultrasmall nanoscale coordination polymers (NCPs) coordinated by ferric ions and natural product curcumin (Cur) were exploited, showing efficient neuroprotection by scavenging excessive radicals and suppressing neuroinflammation. In a 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced mouse PD model, such ultrasmall Fe-Cur NCPs with prolonged blood circulation and BBB traversing capability could effectively alleviate oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and inflammatory condition in the midbrain and striatum to reduce PD symptoms. Thus, this study puts forth a unique type of therapeutics-based NCPs that could be used for safe and efficient treatment of PD with potential in clinical translation.

Abstract
Accurate diagnosis and effective treatment of malignant tumors under the interference of complex and diverse tumor microenvironments (TMEs) have become the focus of research. Herein, an innovative TME-activated biomimetic nanocatalyst with quad-modal imaging capabilities of second near-infrared (NIR-II) "turn-on" fluorescence imaging, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), photoacoustic imaging (PAI), and photothermal imaging (PTI) was designed and developed for self-enhanced photothermal/chemodynamic synergistic therapy. The catalyst was fabricated by loading glucose oxidase (GOD) and Ag2S quantum dots (QDs) on MnO2 nanosheets and coating them with a 4T1 cell membrane (AMG@CM), which enables them to successfully escape immune clearance and have appealing tumor-targeting ability and biocompatibility. The NIR-II fluorescence at 1130 nm of Ag2S QDs quenched by MnO2 could be recovered in vivo through the glutathione (GSH)-induced degradation of MnO2, enabling excellent TME-responsive tumor visualization. Simultaneously, the released Mn2+ can catalyze H2O2 to produce abundant hydroxyl radicals (•OH), achieving photothermal synergistically enhanced chemodynamic therapy (CDT) under NIR-II radiation. Moreover, the CDT could be self-enhanced by GOD due to the extra produced H2O2. This work demonstrates a novel and highly efficient multimodal imaging-guided integrated treatment strategy for dual-enhanced CDT tumor precise diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT), as a powerful tumor therapeutic approach with low side effects and selective therapeutic efficiency, has gained much attention. However, the low intracellular content of H2O2 and the cellular bottleneck of low intracellular oxidative reaction rates at tumor sites have limited the antitumor efficacy of CDT. Herein, a series of sulfur-deficient engineered biodegradable cobalt sulfide quantum dots (CoSx QDs) were constructed for improved synergistic photothermal- and hyperthermal-enhanced CDT of tumors through regulating the photothermal conversion efficiency (PCE) and Fenton-like activity. Through defect engineering, we modulated the PCE and promoted the Fenton catalytic capability of CoSx QDs. With increasing defect sites, the Fenton-like activity improved to generate more toxic •OH, while the photothermal effect declined slightly. In light of above unique superiorities, the best synergistic effects of CoSx QDs were obtained through comparing their PCE and catalytic activity by regulating the sulfur defect fraction degree in these QDs during the synthetic process. In addition, the ultrasmall size and biodegradation endowed QDs with the ability to be rapidly decomposed to ions that were easily excreted after therapy, thus reducing biogenic accumulation in the body with lowered systemic side effects. The in vitro/vivo results demonstrated that the photothermal- and hyperthermal-enhanced chemodynamic effect of CoSx QDs can enable remarkable anticancer properties with favorable biocompatibility. In this study, the defect-driven mechanism for the photothermal-enhanced Fenton-like reaction provides a flexible strategy to deal with different treatment environments, holding great promise in developing a multifunctional platform for cancer treatment in the future.

Abstract
Theranostic agents based on inorganic nanomaterials are still suffered from the nonbiodegradable substances with long-term retention in body and unavoidable biological toxicity, as well as nonspecificity biodistribution with potential damage toward normal tissues. Here, we develop magnetic ions (FeIII, FeII, GdIII, MnII, and MnIII) coordinated nanoplatform (MICN) with framework structure and modify them with PEG (MICN-PEG). Notably, MICN-PEG demonstrates hydroxide ions (OH-) triggered the structure collapse along with responsive near-infrared photoacoustic (PA) signal, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and photothermal therapy (PTT) performances. Thereby, MICN-PEG is able to remain stable in tumors and exert excellent PA/MRI and PTT effects for multimodal imaging-guided cancer treatment. In contrast, MICN-PEG is gradually collapsed in normal tissues, resulting in the significant improvement of imaging accuracy and treatment specificity. MICN-PEG is gradually cleared after administration, minimizing concerns about the long-term toxicity.

Abstract
Hydrogen therapy, an emerging therapeutic strategy, has recently attracted much attention in anticancer medicine. Evidence suggests that hydrogen (H2) can selectively reduce intratumoral overexpressed hydroxyl radicals (•OH) to break the redox homeostasis and thereby lead to redox stress and cell damage. However, the inability to achieve stable hydrogen storage and efficient hydrogen delivery hinders the development of hydrogen therapy. Furthermore, oxygen (O2) deficiency in the tumor microenvironment (TME) and the electron-hole separation inefficiency in photosensitizers have severely limited the efficacy of photodynamic therapy (PDT). Herein, a smart PdH@MnO2/Ce6@HA (PHMCH) yolk-shell nanoplatform is designed to surmount these challenges. PdH tetrahedrons combine stable hydrogen storage and high photothermal conversion efficiency of palladium (Pd) nanomaterials with near-infrared-controlled hydrogen release. Subsequently, the narrow bandgap semiconductor manganese dioxide (MnO2) and the photosensitizer chlorin e6 (Ce6) are introduced into the PHMCH nanoplatform. Upon irradiation, the staggered energy band edges in heterogeneous materials composed of MnO2 and Ce6 can efficiently facilitate electron-hole separation for increasing singlet oxygen (1O2). Moreover, MnO2 nanoshells generate O2 in TME for ameliorating hypoxia and further improving O2-dependent PDT. Finally, the hyaluronic acid-modified PHMCH nanoplatform shows negligible cytotoxicity and selectively targets CD44-overexpressing melanoma cells. The synergistic antitumor performance of the H2-mediated gas therapy combined with photothermal and enhanced PDT can explore more possibilities for the design of gas-mediated cancer therapy.

Abstract
There is an increasingly growing demand for nonantibiotic strategies to overcome drug resistance in bacterial biofilm infections. Here, a novel "gas-sensitized hyperthermia" strategy is proposed for appreciable bacteria killing by the smart design of a metal-organic framework (MOF)-sealed Prussian blue-based nanocarrier (MSDG). Once the biofilm microenvironment (BME) is reached, the acidity-activated MOF degradation allows the release of diallyl trisulfide and subsequent glutathione-responsive generation of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas. Upon near-infrared irradiation, H2S-sensitized hyperthermia arising from MSDG can efficiently eliminate biofilms through H2S-induced extracellular DNA damage and heat-induced bacterial death. The generated H2S in the biofilm can stimulate the polarization of macrophages toward M2 phenotype for reshaping immune microenvironment. Subsequently, the secretion of abundant regeneration-related cytokines from M2 macrophages accelerates tissue regeneration by reversing the infection-induced pro-inflammatory environment in an implant-related infection model. Collectively, such BME-responsive nano-antibacterials can achieve biofilm-specific H2S-sensitized thermal eradiation and immunomodulatory tissue remodeling, thus realizing the renaissance of precision treatment of refractory implant-related infections.

Abstract
Chemotherapy is still an important and effective clinical treatment for cancer. However, individual drugs hardly achieve precise controlled release and targeted therapy, thus resulting in unavoidable side effects. Fortunately, the emergence of drug carriers is expected to solve the above problems. In this work, the MOF-on-MOF strategy was adopted to encapsulate DOX into double-layer NH2-MIL-88B to fabricate a core-shell-structured DOX@NH2-MIL-88B-On-NH2-MIL-88B (DMM) and then realize the pH and GSH dual-responsive controlled DOX release. Because of the core-shell structure, the drug-loading capacity of DMM reached 14.4 wt %, which was nearly twice that of DOX@NH2-MIL-88B (DM), and the controlled release performance of DMM was also improved at the same time, greatly improving the kinetics equilibrium time of DOX from 2 h (DM) to 16 h (DMM) at pH 5.0. Moreover, we found that DMM also possessed peroxidase-like catalytic activity under acidic conditions, which could catalyze H2O2 to produce •OH, exhibiting the potential chemodynamical treatment of cancer. Cell experiments showed that DMM had a significant inhibitory effect against 4T1 cancer cells, and the survival rate of 4T1 cells was less than 20% at 100 ppm.

Abstract
Tumor microenvironment (TME)-activated cancer imaging and therapy is a key to achieving accurate diagnosis and treatment of cancer and reducing the side effects. Herein, smart near-infrared carbon dot-metal organic framework MIL-100 (Fe) assemblies are constructed to achieve TME-activated cancer imaging and chemodynamic-photothermal combined therapy. First, a near-infrared emission carbon dot (RCDs) is developed using glutathione (GSH) as the precursor. Then, the RCDs@MIL-100 self-assemblies are obtained using RCDs, FeCl3 , and trimesic acid solutions as raw materials. After the RCDs@MIL-100 enters the TME, a high concentration of GSH reduces Fe3+ to Fe2+ and drains the GSH, triggering the collapse of RCDs@MIL-100 skeleton and the release of RCDs and Fe2+ , at which time the RCDs fluorescence is restored and in an "on" state to illuminate the tumor cells, which achieved cancer imaging. The released Fe2+ reacts with H2 O2 in the TME to form highly reactive hydroxyl radicals (•OH) by Fenton reaction, which achieves the chemodynamic therapy of tumors. Thus, efficient synergistic chemodynamic-photothermal dual mode therapy is achieved under fluorescence imaging guidance with TME response.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT), a novel cancer therapeutic strategy defined as the treatment using Fenton or Fenton-like reaction to produce •OH in the tumor region, was first proposed by Bu, Shi, and co-workers in 2016. Recently, with the rapid development of Fenton and Fenton-like nanomaterials, CDT has attracted tremendous attention because of its unique advantages: 1) It is tumor-selective with low side effects; 2) the CDT process does not depend on external field stimulation; 3) it can modulate the hypoxic and immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment; 4) the treatment cost of CDT is low. In addition to the Fe-involved CDT strategies, the Fenton-like reaction-mediated CDT strategies have also been proposed, which are based on many other metal elements including copper, manganese, cobalt, titanium, vanadium, palladium, silver, molybdenum, ruthenium, tungsten, cerium, and zinc. Moreover, CDT has been combined with other therapies like chemotherapy, radiotherapy, phototherapy, sonodynamic therapy, and immunotherapy for achieving enhanced anticancer effects. Besides, there have also been studies that extend the application of CDT to the antibacterial field. This review introduces the latest advancements in the nanomaterials-involved CDT from 2018 to the present and proposes the current limitations as well as future research directions in the related field.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) has emerged as a noninvasive therapeutic modality that involves sonosensitizers and low-intensity ultrasound. However, owing to the rapid recombination of charge carriers, most of the sonosensitizers triggered poor reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, resulting in unsatisfactory sonodynamic therapeutic effects. RESULTS Herein, a photo/sono-responsive nanoplatform was developed through the in-situ systhesis of TiO2-x on the surface of two-dimensional MXene (titanium carbide, Ti3C2) for photoacoustic/photothermal bimodal imaging-guided near-infrared II (NIR-II) photothermal enhanced SDT of tumor. Because of several oxygen vacancies and smaller size (~ 10 nm), the in-situ formed TiO2-x nanoparticles possessed narrow band gap (2.65 eV) and high surface area, and thus served as a charge trap to restrict charge recombination under ultrasound (US) activation, resulting in enhanced sonodynamic ROS generation. Moreover, Ti3C2 nanosheets induced extensive localized hyperthermia relieves tumor hypoxia by accelerating intratumoral blood flow and tumor oxygenation, and thus further strengthened the efficacy of SDT. Upon US/NIR-II laser dual-stimuli, Ti3C2@TiO2-x nanoplatform triggered substantial cellular killing in vitro and complete tumor eradication in vivo, without any tumor recurrence and systemic toxicity. CONCLUSION Our work presents the promising design of photo/sono-responsive nanoplatform for cancer nanotheranostics.

Abstract
Applying Fenton chemistry in the tumor microenvironment (TME) for cancer therapy is the most significant feature of chemodynamic therapy (CDT). Owing to the mild acid and overexpressed H2O2 in TME, more cytotoxic hydroxyl radicals (˙OH) are generated in tumor cells via Fenton and Fenton-like reactions. Without external stimulus and drug resistance generation, reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated CDT exhibits a specific and desirable anticancer effect and has been seen as a promising strategy for cancer therapy. However, optimizing the treatment efficiency of CDT in TME is still challenging because of the limited catalytic efficiency of CDT agents and the strong cancer antioxidant capacity in TME. Hence, scientists are trying their best to design and fabricate many more CDT agents with excellent catalytic activity and remodeling TME for optimal CDT. In this perspective, the latest progress of CDT is discussed, with some representative examples presented. Consequently, promising strategies for further optimizing the efficiency of CDT guided by Fenton chemistry are provided. Most importantly, several feasible ways of developing CDT in the future are offered for reference.

Abstract
Recently, various metal peroxide nanomaterials have drawn increasing attention as an efficient hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) self-supplying agent for enhanced tumor therapy. However, a single kind of metal peroxide is insufficient to achieve more effective antitumor performance. Here, a hyaluronic acid modified calcium and copper peroxides nanocomposite has been synthesized by a simple one-step strategy. After effective accumulation at the tumor site due to the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect and specific recognition of hyaluronate acid with CD44 protein on the surface of tumor cells, plenty of Ca2+, Cu2+, and H2O2 can be simultaneously released in acid and hyaluronidase overexpressed tumor microenvironment (TME), generating abundant hydroxyl radical through enhanced Fenton-type reaction between Cu2+ and self-supplying H2O2 with the assistance of glutathione depletion. Overloaded Ca2+ can lead to mitochondria injury and thus enhance the oxidative stress in tumor cells. Moreover, an unbalanced calcium transport channel caused by oxidative stress can further promote tumor calcification and necrosis, which is generally defined as ion-interference therapy. As a result, the synergistic effect of Fenton-like reaction by Cu2+ and mitochondria dysfunction by Ca2+ in ROS generation is performed. Therefore, a TME-responsive calcium and copper peroxides nanocomposite based on one-step integration has been successfully established and exhibits a more satisfactory antitumor efficiency than any single kind of metal peroxide.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) is an emerging approach to treat cancer based on the tumor microenvironment (TME), but its limited content of endogenous hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) weakens the anticancer effects. Herein, a multifunctional biomimetic nanozyme (Se@SiO2-Mn@Au/DOX, named as SSMA/DOX) is fabricated, which undergoes TME responsive self-cascade catalysis to facilitate MRI guided enhanced chemo/chemodynamic therapy. The SSMA/DOX nanocomposites (NCs) responsively degrade in acidic conditions of tumor to release Se, DOX, Au and Mn2+. Mn2+ not only enables MRI to guided therapy, but also catalyzes the endogenous H2O2 into hydroxyl radical (˙OH) for CDT. In addition, the Au NPs continuously catalyze glucose to generate H2O2, enhancing CDT by supplementing a sufficiently reactive material and cutting off the energy supply of the tumor by consuming glucose. Simultaneously, Se enhances the chemotherapy of doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) and CDT by upregulating ROS in the tumor cells, achieving remarkable inhibition effect towards tumor. Moreover, SSMA/DOX NCs have good biocompatibility and degradability, which avoid long-term toxicity and side effects. Overall, the degradable SSMA/DOX NCs provide an innovative strategy for tumor microenvironment responsive self-cascade catalysis to enhance tumor therapy.

Abstract
Traditional tumor treatments, including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, photodynamic therapy, and photothermal therapy, are developed and used to treat different types of cancer. Recently, chemodynamic therapy (CDT) has been emerged as a novel cancer therapeutic strategy. CDT utilizes Fenton or Fenton-like reaction to generate highly cytotoxic hydroxyl radicals (•OH) from endogenous hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 ) to kill cancer cells, which displays promising therapeutic potentials for tumor treatment. However, the low catalytic efficiency and off-target side effects of Fenton reaction limit the biomedical application of CDT. In this regard, various strategies are implemented to potentiate CDT against tumor, including retrofitting the tumor microenvironment (e.g., increasing H2 O2 level, decreasing reductive substances, and reducing pH), enhancing the catalytic efficiency of nanocatalysts, and other strategies. This review aims to summarize the development of CDT and summarize these recent progresses of nanocatalyst-mediated CDT for antitumor application. The future development trend and challenges of CDT are also discussed.
