Abstract
By integrating TiO2 with rare earth upconversion nanocrystals (NaREF4), efficient energy transfer can be achieved between the two subunits under near-infrared (NIR) excitation, which hold tremendous potential in the fields of photocatalysis, photodynamic therapy (PDT), etc. However, in the previous studies, the combination of TiO2 with NaREF4 is a non-epitaxial random blending mode, resulting in a diminished energy transfer efficiency between the NaREF4 and TiO2. Herein, we present a fluorine doping-mediated epitaxial growth strategy for the synthesis of TiO2-NaREF4 heteronanocrystals (HNCs). Due to the epitaxial growth connection, NaREF4 can transfer energy through phonon-assisted pathway to TiO2, which is more efficient than the traditional indirect secondary photon excitation. Additionally, F doping brings oxygen vacancies in the TiO2 subunit, which further introduces new impurity energy levels in the intrinsic band gap of TiO2 subunit, and facilitates the energy transfer through phonon-assisted method from NaREF4 to TiO2. As a proof of concept, TiO2-NaGdF4 : Yb,Tm@NaYF4@NaGdF4 : Nd@NaYF4 HNCs were rationally constructed. Taking advantage of the dual-model up- and downconversion luminescence of the delicately designed multi-shell structured NaREF4 subunit, highly efficient photo-response capability of the F-doped TiO2 subunit and the efficient phonon-assisted energy transfer between them, the prepared HNCs provide a distinctive nanoplatform for bioimaging-guided NIR-triggered PDT.

Abstract
Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) represents a promising, noninvasive, and precise treatment modality for tumors, demonstrating significant potential in clinical applications. However, the efficiency of sonosensitizers in generating reactive oxygen species (ROS) is often limited by rapid electron-hole recombination. In this study, BiF3@BiOI is synthesized via a co-precipitation method, followed by in-situ reduction to decorate it with Pt nanoparticles, resulting in BiF3@BiOI@Pt-PVP (BBP) nanocomposite for enhancing SDT efficacy. The formation of the BiF3@BiOI heterojunction enhances charge separation ability. The decoration of Pt nanoparticles narrows the bandgap and alters the band positions and Fermi level of BBP, which can effectively mitigate the rapid recombination of electron-hole pairs and facilitate a cascade reaction of ROS, thereby improving ROS generation efficiency with ultrasound excitation. Additionally, bismuth ions in BBP and the generated holes consume glutathione, exacerbating cellular oxidative damage, and triggering PANoptosis and ferroptosis. Furthermore, Pt nanoparticles demonstrate peroxidase-like activity, catalyzing endogenous hydrogen peroxide to oxygen. These functions are helpful against tumors for alleviating hypoxic conditions, reshaping the microenvironment, modulating immune cell infiltration capacity, and enhancing the efficacy of immunotherapy. The dual strategy of forming heterojunctions and sensitization with noble metals effectively enhances the efficacy of sono-catalytic therapy-induced immune activation in tumor treatment.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) is a novel tumor treatment method by using hydroxyl radicals (•OH) to kill cancer cells. However, its therapeutic effects are strictly confined by the short lifespan of •OH and reduced •OH generation speed. Herein, an effective CDT is achieved by both improving •OH lifetime and long-lasting generating •OH through intraparticle electron transfer within heterogeneous nanoparticles (NPs). These heterogeneous NPs are composed of evenly distributed Cu and Fe3O4 (CFO NPs) with large interaction interfaces, and electrons tend to transfer from Cu to Fe3O4 for the appearance of ≡Cu2+ and increase in ≡Fe2+. The generated ≡Cu2+ can interact with GSH, which prolongs the lifespan of •OH, produces ≡Cu+ for higher speed •OH generation with H2O2, and induces cell ferroptosis for tumor therapy. The improved ≡Fe2+ can also improve the •OH release under H2O2 until Cu is depleted. As a result, a sustainable •OH generation is achieved to promote cell apoptosis for effective tumor therapy. Since H2O2 and GSH are only overexpressed at tumor, and CFO NPs can degrade in the tumor microenvironment, these NPs are with high biosafety and can be metabolized by urine. This work provides a novel biomaterial for effective cancer CDT through intraparticle electron transfer.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) has garnered significant attention for treating diverse malignant tumours due to its minimally invasive nature, reduced damage to healthy tissues, and potential mitigation of side effects. However, its application in glioblastoma (GBM) is hindered by the diminished capacity of CDT agents to traverse the blood-brain barrier (BBB), inadequate tumour targeting efficiency, and restricted availability of H2O2 within the tumour microenvironment (TME). To address these challenges, we devised a novel CDT agent (Fe@tFNAs-ANG-3AT) based on a tetrahedral framework nucleic acids (tFNAs). Fe@tFNAs-ANG-3AT was constructed by anchoring iron ions (Fe3+) onto the dual appendages-modified tFNAs. Specifically, one appendage, Angiopep-2 (ANG, a penetrating peptide), facilitates Fe@tFNAs-ANG-3AT penetration across the BBB and selective targeting of tumour cells. Simultaneously, the second appendage, 3-Amino-1,2,4-triazole (3AT, a H2O2 enzyme inhibitor), augments the H2O2 levels required for effective CDT treatment. Upon tumour cell internalization, the loaded Fe3+ in Fe@tFNAs-ANG-3AT is reduced to Fe2+ by the overexpressed glutathione (GSH) in the TME, catalysing the generation of cytotoxic hydroxyl radicals (·OH) and inducing tumour cell death via elevated oxidative stress levels within tumour cells. It is anticipated that Fe@tFNAs-ANG-3AT holds promise as a transformative treatment strategy for GBM.

Abstract
Infection is the most common complication after orthopedic surgery and can result in prolonged ailments such as chronic wounds, enlarged bone defects, and osteomyelitis. Iron, which is essential for bacterial metabolism and immune cell functions, is extremely important. Bacteria harness iron from nearby cells to promote biofilm formation, ensuring their survival. Iron deficiency within the infection microenvironment (IME) consequently hampers macrophage function, enabling further dissemination of the infection and hindering macrophage polarization to the M2 phenotype. Therefore, a novel approach is proposed to regulate macrophage polarization, aiming to restore the inflammatory immune environment. A composite hydrogel derived from natural polymers is developed to address infections and manage iron metabolism in macrophages. This IME-responsive hydrogel, named FCL-ECMH, is synthesized by encapsulating vermiculite functional core layers within a decellularized extracellular matrix hydrogel. It is noteworthy that FCL-ECMH can produce reactive oxygen species within the IME. Supplementary photothermal treatment enhances bacterial iron uptake, leading to ferroptosis-like death. This process also rejuvenates the iron-enriched macrophages around the IME, thereby enhancing their antibacterial and tissue repair functions. In vivo experiments confirmed the antibacterial and repair-promoting capabilities of FCL-ECMH, indicating its potential for clinical applications.

Abstract
Combining interfacial oxygen vacancy engineering with a built-in electric field (BEF) technique is an efficient way to build efficient and practical electrocatalytic water-splitting catalysts. In this study, a Fe3O4-FeSe2 heterojunction catalyst with oxygen vacancies supported on reduced graphene oxide (rGO) was designed and successfully fabricated using a simple two-step hydrothermal method. Owing to the different Fermi levels of Fe3O4 and FeSe2, a BEF was generated at the interface, which enhanced the separation of negative and positive charges, thus optimizing the adsorption of hydrogen/oxygen intermediates on the heterostructures and improving the activity of the catalyst. Experimental results show that Fe3O4-FeSe2/rGO/NF exhibits excellent hydrogen and oxygen evolution performances, with low overpotentials of 234/300 mV at 100 mA⋅cm-2. A water electrolyzer assembled with Fe3O4-FeSe2/rGO/NF as both the anode and cathode requires only a small potential of 1.78 V to reach a current density of 100 mA⋅cm-1. This study provides an innovative approach for constructing a catalyst with excellent electrocatalytic performance for overall water splitting.

Abstract
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), a potential public health issue, is a huge challenge for the advanced scientific realm to solve. Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) based on the Fenton reaction emerged as a state-of-the-art therapeutic modality to treat GBM. However, crossing the blood-brain barrier (BBB) to reach the GBM is another endless marathon. In this review, the physiology of the BBB has been elaborated to understand the mechanism of crossing these potential barriers to treat GBM. Moreover, the designing of Fenton-based nanomaterials has been discussed for the production of reactive oxygen species in the tumor area to eradicate the cancer cells. For effective tumor targeting, biological nanomaterials that can cross the BBB via neurovascular transport channels have also been explored. To overcome the neurotoxicity caused by inorganic nanomaterials, the use of smart nanoagents having both enhanced biocompatibility and effective tumor targeting ability to enhance the efficiency of CDT are systematically summarized. Finally, the advancements in intelligent Fenton-based nanosystems for a multimodal therapeutic approach in addition to CDT are demonstrated. Hopefully, this systematic review will provide a better understanding of Fenton-based CDT and insight into GBM treatment.

Abstract
Piezoelectric dynamic therapy (PzDT) is an effective method of tumor treatment by using piezoelectric polarization to generate reactive oxygen species. In this paper, two-dimensional Cu-doped BiOCl nanosheets with surface vacancies are produced by the photoetching strategy. Under ultrasound, a built-in electric field is generated to promote the electron and hole separation. The separated carriers achieve O2 reduction and GSH oxidation, inducing oxidative stress. The bandgap of BiOCl is narrowed by introducing surface oxygen vacancies, which act as charge traps and facilitate the electron and hole separation. Meanwhile, Cu doping induces chemodynamic therapy and depletes GSH via the transformation from Cu(II) to Cu(I). Both in vivo and in vitro results confirmed that oxidative stress can be enhanced by exogenous ultrasound stimulation, which can cause severe damage to tumor cells. This work emphasizes the efficient strategy of doping engineering and defect engineering for US-activated PzDT under exogenous stimulation.

Abstract
Despite significant breakthroughs in immunotherapy, the limitations of inadequate immune stimulation and stubborn immune resistance continue to present opportunities and challenges. Therefore, a two-pronged approach, encompassing the activation of immunogenic cell death (ICD) and blocking the indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO)-mediated pathway, is devised to elicit systemic anti-tumor immunity and alleviate immunosuppression. Herein, a tumor microenvironment (TME)-specific driven nanoagent is composed of a tetrasulfide bond-bridged mesoporous silica layer (MON) coated up-conversion nanoparticles as a nano-carrier, combines Fe2+, curcumin, and indoximod for operating chemodynamic therapy/chemotherapy/immunotherapy. The consumption of glutathione (GSH) caused by MON degradation, the Fenton reaction of Fe2+, and curcumin triggering mitochondrial damage collectively exacerbate the oxidative stress, leading to a violent immunoreaction and reversal of the immunosuppressive TME through a combination of IDO-inhibitors. Meanwhile, upconversion luminescence (UCL) imaging serves as a significant guiding tool for drug delivery and the treatment of nanoagents. In vivo and in vitro experiment results demonstrate that the nanosystem not only effectively inhibits the growth of primary tumors but also induces immune priming and memory effects to reject re-challenged tumors. The strategy as a complementary approach displays great potential for future immunotherapy along with other multimodal treatment modes.

Abstract
External stimuli triggering chemical reactions in cancer cells to generate highly reactive chemical species are very appealing for cancer therapy, in which external irradiation activating sensitizers to transfer energy or electrons to surrounding oxygen or other molecules is critical for generating cytotoxic reactive species. However, poor light penetration into tissue, low activity of sensitizers, and reliance on oxygen supply restrict the generation of cytotoxic chemical species in hypoxic tumors, which lowers the therapeutic efficacy. Here, this work presents galvanic cell nanomaterials that can directly release highly reactive electrons in tumors without external irradiation or photosensitizers. The released reactive electrons directly react with surrounding biomolecules such as proteins and DNA within tumors to destroy them or react with other surrounding (bio)molecules to yield cytotoxic chemical species to eliminate tumors independent of oxygen. Administering these nanogalvanic cells to mice results in almost complete remission of subcutaneous solid tumors and deep metastatic tumors. The results demonstrate that this strategy can further arouse an immune response even in a hypoxic environment. This method offers a promising approach to effectively eliminate tumors, similar to photodynamic therapy, but does not require oxygen or irradiation to activate photosensitizers.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have become an effective tool for tumor treatment. The combination of photodynamic therapy (PDT) and chemodynamic therapy (CDT) takes advantage of various ROS and enhances therapeutic effects. However, the activation of CDT usually occurs before PDT, which hinders the sustained maintenance of hydroxyl radicals (⋅OH) and reduces the treatment efficiency. Herein, we present a light-triggered nano-system based on molecular aggregation regulation for converting cancer therapy from PDT/photothermal therapy (PTT) to a long-lasting CDT. The ordered J-aggregation enhances the photodynamic properties of the cyanine moiety while simultaneously suppressing the chemodynamic capabilities of the copper-porphyrin moiety. Upon light irradiation, Cu-PCy JNPs demonstrate strong photodynamic and photothermal effects. Meanwhile, light triggers a rapid degradation of the cyanine backbone, leading to the destruction of the J-aggregation. As a result, a long-lasting CDT is sequentially activated, and the sustained generation of ⋅OH is observed for up to 48 hours, causing potent cellular oxidative stress and apoptosis. Due to their excellent tumor accumulation, Cu-PCy JNPs exhibit effective in vivo tumor ablation through the converting therapy. This work provides a new approach for effectively prolonging the chemodynamic activity in ROS-based cancer therapy.

Abstract
The introduction of battery-type cathode has been commonly considered a preferred approach to boost the energy density of aqueous hybrid energy storage devices (AHESDs) in alkalic systems, but AHESDs with both high energy density and power density are rare due to the great challenge in designing battery-type anode materials with high rate and durability comparable to capacitive-type carbon anodes. In this paper, a well-hydrated iron selenate (FeSeO) sheath is constructed around FeOOH nanorods by a facile electrochemical activation, demonstrating the unique multifunction in fasting charge diffusion, promoting the dissociation of H2O, and inhibiting the irreversible phase transition of FeOOH to inert γ-Fe2O3, which endow the hydrated sheath coated Fe-based anodes with an impressive rate capability and superior durability. Thanks to the comprehensive performance of this Fe-based anode, the assembled AHESD delivered a high energy density of 117 Wh kg-1 with the extraordinary durability of almost 100% capacity retention after 40 000 cycles. Even at an ultrahigh power density of 27 000 W kg-1, an impressive energy density of 65 Wh kg-1 can be achieved, which rivals previously reported energy-storage devices.

Abstract
Background Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) is a new treatment approach that is triggered by endogenous stimuli in specific intracellular conditions for generating hydroxyl radicals. However, the efficiency of CDT is severely limited by Fenton reaction agents and harsh reaction conditions. Methods Bimetallic PtMn nanocubes were rationally designed and simply synthesized through a one-step high-temperature pyrolysis process by controlling both the nucleation process and the subsequent crystal growth stage. The polyethylene glycol was modified to enhance biocompatibility. Results Benefiting from the alloying of Pt nanocubes with Mn doping, the structure of the electron cloud has changed, resulting in different degrees of the shift in electron binding energy, resulting in the increasing of Fenton reaction activity. The PtMn nanocubes could catalyze endogenous hydrogen peroxide to toxic hydroxyl radicals in mild acid. Meanwhile, the intrinsic glutathione (GSH) depletion activity of PtMn nanocubes consumed GSH with the assistance of Mn3+/Mn2+. Upon 808 nm laser irradiation, mild temperature due to the surface plasmon resonance effect of Pt metal can also enhance the Fenton reaction. Conclusion PtMn nanocubes can not only destroy the antioxidant system via efficient reactive oxygen species generation and continuous GSH consumption but also propose the photothermal effect of noble metal for enhanced Fenton reaction activity.

Abstract
Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) is widely recognized as a non-surgical treatment approach for advanced liver cancer, combining chemotherapy with the blockage of blood vessels supplying the tumor. To enhance the efficacy of TACE and address chemotherapy resistance, there is growing interest in the development of multifunctional embolic microspheres. In this study, multifunctional PVA microspheres, which encapsulate MIT as a chemotherapeutic drug, PPY as a photothermal agent, and Fe3O4 as a chemodynamic therapy agent, were prepared successfully. The results demonstrated that the developed multifunctional PVA microspheres not only exhibit favorable drug release, photothermal therapy, and chemodynamic therapy performance, but also show a promising synergistic therapeutic effect both in vitro and in vivo. Consequently, the engineered multifunctional PVA microspheres hold tremendous promise for enhancing TACE effectiveness and have the potential to overcome limitations associated with traditional liver cancer treatments.

Abstract
Lipid peroxidation (LPO), the process of membrane lipid oxidation, is a potential new form of cell death for cancer treatment. However, the radical chain reaction involved in LPO is comprised of the initiation, propagation (the slowest step), and termination stages, limiting its effectiveness in vivo. To address this limitation, we introduce the radical chain transfer reaction into the LPO process to target the propagation step and overcome the sluggish rate of lipid peroxidation, thereby promoting endogenous lipid peroxidation and enhancing therapeutic outcomes. Firstly, radical chain transfer agent (CTA-1)/Fe nanoparticles (CTA-Fe NPs-1) was synthesized. Notably, CTA-1 convert low activity peroxyl radicals (ROO·) into high activity alkoxyl radicals (RO·), creating the cycle of free radical oxidation and increasing the propagation of lipid peroxidation. Additionally, CTA-1/Fe ions enhance reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, consume glutathione (GSH), and thereby inactivate GPX-4, promoting the initiation stage and reducing termination of free radical reaction. CTA-Fe NPs-1 induce a higher level of peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids in lipid membranes, leading to highly effective treatment in cancer cells. In addition, CTA-Fe NPs-1 could be enriched in tumors inducing potent tumor inhibition and exhibit activatable T1-MRI contrast of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). In summary, CTA-Fe NPs-1 can enhance intracellular lipid peroxidation by accelerating initiation, propagation, and inhibiting termination step, promoting the cycle of free radical reaction, resulting in effective anticancer outcomes in tumor-bearing mice.

Abstract
Nanoformulations with endogenous/exogenous stimulus-responsive characteristics show great potential in tumor cell elimination with minimal adverse effects and high precision. Herein, an intelligent nanotheranostic platform (denoted as TPZ@Cu-SnS2-x /PLL) for tumor microenvironment (TME) and near-infrared light (NIR) activated tumor-specific therapy is constructed. Copper (Cu) doping and the resulting sulfur vacancies can not only improve the response range of visible light but also improve the separation efficiency of photogenerated carriers and increase the carrier density, resulting in the ideal photothermal and photodynamic performance. Density functional theory calculations revealed that the introduction of Cu and resulting sulfur vacancies can induce electron redistribution, achieving favorable photogenerated electrons. After entering cells through endocytosis, the TPZ@Cu-SnS2-x /PLL nanocomposites show the pH responsivity property for the release of the TPZ selectively within the acidic TME, and the released Cu2+ can first interact with local glutathione (GSH) to deplete GSH with the production of Cu+ . Subsequently, the Cu+ -mediated Fenton-like reaction can decompose local hydrogen peroxide into hydroxyl radicals, which can also be promoted by hyperthermia derived from the photothermal effect for tumor cell apoptosis. The integration of photoacoustic/computed tomography imaging-guided NIR phototherapy, TPZ-induced chemotherapy, and GSH-elimination/hyperthermia enhanced chemodynamic therapy results in synergistic therapeutic outcomes without obvious systemic toxicity in vivo.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) shows immense potential in cancer treatment as it not only directly kills tumor cells but also induces anti-tumor immune responses. However, the efficacy of CDT is hampered by challenges in targeting CDT catalysts specifically to tumors using nanomaterials, along with the limitations of low H2 O2 levels and short catalyst duration within the tumor microenvironment. In this study, DNA adjuvant hydrogel to arrange a glucose oxidase-ferrocene cascade for continuously generating reactive oxygen species (ROS) from glucose in situ for tumor CDT combined with immunotherapy is employed. By precisely tuning the catalyst spacing with DNA double helix, ROS production efficiency is elevated by up to nine times compared to free catalysts, resulting in stronger immunogenetic cell death. Upon intratumoral injection, the DNA hydrogel system elicited potent anti-tumor immune responses, thereby effectively inhibiting established tumors and rejecting re-challenged tumors. This work offers a novel platform for integrated CDT and immunotherapy in cancer treatment.

ADVANCED MATERIALS (DEERFIELD BEACH, FLA.) 2024; 36:e2308355. [PMID: 37934805 DOI: 10.1002/adma.202308355] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/17/2023] [Revised: 10/31/2023] [Indexed: 11/09/2023]
Abstract
Sono-photodynamic therapy is hindered by the limited tissue penetration depth of the external light source and the quick recombination of electron-hole owing to the random movement of charge carriers. In this study, orthorhombic ZnSnO3 quantum dots (QDs) with piezo-photoelectronic effects are successfully encapsulated in hexagonal upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) using a one-pot thermal decomposition method to form an all-in-one watermelon-like structured sono-photosensitizer (ZnSnO3 @UCNPs). The excited near-infrared light has high penetration depth, and the watermelon-like structure allows for full contact between the UCNPs and ZnSnO3 QDs, achieving ultrahigh Förster resonance energy transfer efficiency of up to 80.30%. Upon ultrasonic and near-infrared laser co-activation, the high temperature and pressure generated lead to the deformation of the UCNPs, thereby driving the deformation of all ZnSnO3 QDs inside the UCNPs, forming many small internal electric fields similar to isotropic electric domains. This piezoelectric effect not only increases the internal electric field intensity of the entire material but also prevents random movement and rapid recombination of charge carriers, thereby achieving satisfactory piezocatalytic performance. By combining the photodynamic effect arising from the energy transfer from UCNPs to ZnSnO3 , synergistic efficacy is realized. This study proposes a novel strategy for designing highly efficient sono-photosensitizers through structural design.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) relying on Fenton reaction has emerged as a promising strategy for tumor treatment. However, its clinical efficacy is hindered by the inadequate reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the potential cytotoxicity towards normal cells. To address these challenges, we have successfully developed a multistage augmented cancer therapy system based on bimetallic metal-organic framework (BMOF) that amplifies ROS and facilitates tumor-specific therapeutic effects. By employing a simple one-pot self-assembly approach, we synthesized SVK3@ZnCo-ZIF in which sulfonated vitamin K3 (SVK3) was encapsulated within ZnCo-ZIF BMOF. The results revealed that the incorporation of Zn atoms significantly diluted the Fenton activity of Co atoms towards normal cells. Notably, SVK3@ZnCo-ZIF underwent pH-controlled decomposition triggered by the tumor microenvironment (TME), thus releasing SVK3, Co2+ and Zn2+. Specifically, the H2O2 levels in tumors was effectively elevated by the interaction of SVK3 with NAD(P)H quinone oxidoreductase-1 (NQO-1). It thus enhanced the Fenton activity of Co2+. Moreover, the release of Zn2+ ions can induce cellular dysfunction and mitochondrial damage, thereby promoting the generation of ROS and subsequent cell death. The synergistic combination of CDT, SVK3 chemotherapy, and Zn2+-interfered therapy greatly facilitated apoptosis of tumor cells. Collectively, our investigations demonstrate the efficacy of such system in selectively inducing toxicity in cancer cells while minimizing detrimental effects on normal cells.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a crucial role in regulating the metabolism of tumor growth, metastasis, death and other biological processes. ROS-based nanodynamic therapies (NDTs) are becoming attractive due to non-invasive, low side effects and tumor-specific advantages. NDTs have rapidly developed into numerous branches, such as photodynamic therapy, chemodynamic therapy, sonodynamic therapy and so on. However, the complexity of the tumor microenvironment and the limitations of existing sensitizers have greatly restricted the therapeutic effects of NDTs, which heavily rely on ROS levels. To address the limitations of NDTs, various strategies have been developed to increase ROS yield, which is an urgent aspect for the positive development of NDTs. In this review, the nanodynamic potentiation strategies in terms of unique properties and universalities of NDTs are comprehensively outlined. We mainly summarize the current dilemmas faced by each NDT and the respective solutions. Meanwhile, the NDTs universalities-based potentiation strategies and NDTs-based combined treatments are elaborated. Finally, we conclude with a discussion of the key issues and challenges faced in the development and clinical transformation of NDTs.

Catalyzing Generation and Stabilization of Oxygen Vacancies on CeO 2-x Nanorods by Pt Nanoclusters as Nanozymes for Catalytic Therapy. Adv Healthc Mater 2023; 12:e2302056. [PMID: 37708844 DOI: 10.1002/adhm.202302056] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2023] [Revised: 08/09/2023] [Indexed: 09/16/2023]
Abstract
Although CeO2 nanomaterials have been widely explored as nanozymes for catalytic therapy, they still suffer from relatively low activities. Herein, the catalyzing generation and stabilization of oxygen vacancies on CeO2 nanorods by Pt nanoclusters via H2 gas reduction under mild temperature (350 °C) to obtain Pt/CeO2- x , which can serve as a highly efficient nanozyme for catalytic cancer therapy, is reported. The deposited Pt on CeO2 by the atomic layer deposition technique not only can serve as the catalyst to generate oxygen vacancies under mild temperature reduction through the hydrogen spillover effect, but also can stabilize the generated oxygen vacancies. Meanwhile, the oxygen vacancies also provide anchoring sites for Pt forming strong metal-support interactions and thus preventing their agglomerations. Importantly, the Pt/CeO2- x reduced at 350 °C (Pt/CeO2- x -350R) exhibits excellent enzyme-mimicking catalytic activity for generation of reactive oxygen species (e.g., ·OH) as compared to other control samples, including CeO2 , Pt/CeO2 , and Pt/CeO2- x reduced at other temperatures, thus achieving excellent performance for tumor-specific catalytic therapy to efficiently eliminate cancer cells in vitro and ablate tumors in vivo. The excellent enzyme-mimicking catalytic activity of Pt/CeO2- x -350R originates from the good catalytic activities of oxygen vacancy-rich CeO2- x and Pt nanoclusters.

Abstract
An atomically precise Cu(I) macrocyclic complex Cu8I was developed for chemodynamic therapy (CDT) research. The {Cu8} macrocyclic skeleton gradually forms with the selective recognition of iodide ions, and the monitoring of intermediate fragments during Cu8I formation using time-dependent electrospray ionization mass spectrometry indicates the following possible formation process: [Cu1] → [Cu2] → [Cu3] → [Cu4] → [Cu5I] → [Cu6I] → [Cu7I] → [Cu8I] when recognized by iodide ions. Furthermore, the Cu(I)-mediated Fenton-like reaction in Cu8I catalyzes the production of toxic ˙OH from H2O2, which results in efficient tumor suppression.

Abstract
The special redox homeostasis of tumor cells makes reactive oxygen species (ROS)-based approaches a promising cancer therapeutic strategy. Among these approaches, photodynamic therapy is the most widely studied ROS-based treatment due to its ability to achieve targeted therapy by local light irradiation. However, achieving efficient and continuous ROS generation without prolonged laser exposure is still challenging. In this work, a photo-activated continuous ROS nanoamplifier is proposed for photodynamic-chemodynamic cascade therapy. Upon local laser irradiation, the nanoamplifier can continuously amplify cellular oxidative stress through a positive feedback loop of "light-triggered ROS generation, ROS-responsive prodrug activation, and Fenton reaction-mediated ROS cyclic regenerative amplification", avoiding tissue damage caused by excessive laser exposure. This strategy provides a potential pathway to overcome the limitations of ROS-based therapeutic approaches.

Abstract
Nanozymes are artificial enzymes that mimic natural enzyme-like activities and exhibit tremendous potential for tumor chemodynamic therapy. However, the development of novel nanozymes with superior catalytic activities for nanotheranostics remains a formidable challenge. Herein, we report a facile synthesis of monodisperse palladium nanosheets (Pd nanosheets) and their assembly on graphene oxide (GO) that enhances the catalytic activities of Pd nanoparticles. Simultaneously, the obtained nanocomposites (rGO-Pd) could be applied as a smart near-infrared (NIR) light-responsive nanotheranostic for near infrared imaging-guided chemodynamic/photothermal combined therapy. Notably, rGO-Pd exhibited high peroxidase mimicking activities, which could catalyze the conversion of intratumoral H2O2 to ˙OH. Impressively, the reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation of rGO-Pd was further remarkably enhanced by the endogenous acidity of the tumor microenvironment and the exogenous NIR light-responsive photothermal effect. These collective properties of the rGO-Pd nanozyme enabled it to be a ROS generation accelerator for photothermally enhanced tumor chemodynamic therapy. Thus, the as-developed rGO-Pd may represent a promising new type of high-performance nanozyme for multifunctional nanotheranostics toward cancer.
