Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) has emerged as a transformative paradigm in the realm of reactive oxygen species -mediated cancer therapies, exhibiting its potential as a sophisticated strategy for precise and effective tumor treatment. CDT primarily relies on metal ions and hydrogen peroxide to initiate Fenton or Fenton-like reactions, generating cytotoxic hydroxyl radicals. Its notable advantages in cancer treatment are demonstrated, including tumor specificity, autonomy from external triggers, and a favorable side-effect profile. Recent advancements in nanomedicine are devoted to enhancing CDT, promising a comprehensive optimization of CDT efficacy. This review systematically elucidates cutting-edge achievements in chemodynamic nanotherapeutics, exploring strategies for enhanced Fenton or Fenton-like reactions, improved tumor microenvironment modulation, and precise regulation in energy metabolism. Moreover, a detailed analysis of diverse CDT-mediated combination therapies is provided. Finally, the review concludes with a comprehensive discussion of the prospects and intrinsic challenges to the application of chemodynamic nanotherapeutics in the domain of cancer treatment.

Photothermal Ferrotherapy - Induced Immunogenic Cell Death via Iron-Based Ternary Chalcogenide Nanoparticles Against Triple-Negative Breast Cancer.

Abstract
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is highly malignant and prone to recurrence and metastasis. Patients with TNBC have limited therapeutic options, often resulting in poor prognosis. Some new treatments for TNBC have been considered in the past decade, such as immunotherapy, photothermal therapy (PTT), and ferroptosis therapy, that allow the rapid and minimally invasive ablation of cancer. However, a multifunctional nanodrug system with more potent efficacy for TNBC is still needed. The use of iron-based ternary chalcogenide nanoparticles (NPs), namely AgFeS2, is reported, which synergistically combines photothermal therapy, ferrotherapy, and immunotherapy in one system for the treatment of TNBC. AgFeS2 possesses excellent photothermal conversion performance for tumor near-infrared (NIR) phototherapy. Upon photoirradiation, these NPs generate heat, accelerate the release of iron ions, and effectively catalyze the Fenton reaction, resulting in cell apoptosis and ferroptosis. Additionally, AgFeS2 promotes the release of tumor-specific antigens and triggers an immune response via immunogenic cell death (ICD), thereby providing unique synergistic mechanisms for cancer therapy. The present study demonstrates the great potential of iron-based ternary chalcogenide as a new therapeutic platform for a combination of photothermal therapy, ferrotherapy, and immunotherapy for the suppression of TNBC.

Abstract
Hypochlorous acid (HClO), as a powerful oxidizer, is obtained from the oxidation of Cl- ions during the electrochemical therapy (EChT) process for cancer therapy. However, the extracellular generated HClO is inadequate to inhibit effective tumor cell death. Herein, manganese-doped potassium chloride nanocubes (MPC NCs) fabricated and modified with amphipathic polymer PEG (PMPC NCs) to function as massive three-dimensional nanoelectrodes (NEs) were developed to enhance the generation of HClO for electrochemical immunotherapy under an alternating electric field. Under an square-wave alternating current (AC) electric field, the generation of HClO was boosted by PMPC NEs due to the enlarged active surface area, enhanced mass transfer rate, and improved electrocatalytic activity. Notably, PMPC NEs upregulated the intracellular HClO concentration to induce robust immunogenic cell death (ICD) under an AC electric field. Meanwhile, the electric-triggered release of Mn2+ effectively stimulated dendritic cells (DCs) maturation. In vivo results illustrated that PMPC-mediated EChT inhibited tumor growth and triggered the promotion of the immune response to regulate the tumor immune microenvironment. Based on the potent antitumor immunity, PMPC-mediated EChT was further combined with an immune checkpoint inhibitor (αCTLA-4) to realize combined EChT-immunotherapy, which demonstrated enhanced tumor inhibition of the primary tumors and an abscopal effect on distant tumors. To summarize, our work highlights the application of electrochemical-immunotherapy technology in tumor therapy.

Abstract
Glucose oxidase (Gox)-mediated starvation therapy offers a prospective advantage for malignancy treatment by interrupting the glucose supply to neoplastic cells. However, the negative charge of the Gox surface hinders its enrichment in tumor tissues. Furthermore, Gox-mediated starvation therapy infiltrates large amounts of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to surround normal tissues and exacerbate intracellular hypoxia. In this study, a cascade-catalyzed nanogel (A-NE) was developed to boost the antitumor effects of starvation therapy by glucose consumption and cascade reactive release of nitric oxide (NO) to relieve hypoxia. First, the surface cross-linking structure of A-NE can serve as a bioimmobilization for Gox, ensuring Gox stability while improving the encapsulation efficiency. Then, Gox-mediated starvation therapy efficiently inhibited the proliferation of tumor cells while generating large amounts of H2O2. In addition, covalent l-arginine (l-Arg) in A-NE consumed H2O2 derived from glucose decomposition to generate NO, which augmented starvation therapy on metastatic tumors by alleviating tumor hypoxia. Eventually, both in vivo and in vitro studies indicated that nanogels remarkably inhibited in situ tumor growth and hindered metastatic tumor recurrence, offering an alternative possibility for clinical intervention.

Abstract
Neoantigens play a pivotal role in the field of tumour therapy, encompassing the stimulation of anti-tumour immune response and the enhancement of tumour targeting capability. Nonetheless, numerous factors directly influence the effectiveness of neoantigens in bolstering anti-tumour immune responses, including neoantigen quantity and specificity, uptake rates by antigen-presenting cells (APCs), residence duration within the tumour microenvironment (TME), and their ability to facilitate the maturation of APCs for immune response activation. Nanotechnology assumes a significant role in several aspects, including facilitating neoantigen release, promoting neoantigen delivery to antigen-presenting cells, augmenting neoantigen uptake by dendritic cells, shielding neoantigens from protease degradation, and optimizing interactions between neoantigens and the immune system. Consequently, the development of nanotechnology synergistically enhances the efficacy of neoantigens in cancer theranostics. In this review, we provide an overview of neoantigen sources, the mechanisms of neoantigen-induced immune responses, and the evolution of precision neoantigen-based nanomedicine. This encompasses various therapeutic modalities, such as neoantigen-based immunotherapy, phototherapy, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, chemodynamic therapy, and other strategies tailored to augment precision in cancer therapeutics. We also discuss the current challenges and prospects in the application of neoantigen-based precision nanomedicine, aiming to expedite its clinical translation.

Abstract
The ability to gain spatiotemporal information, and in some cases achieve spatiotemporal control, in the context of drug delivery makes theranostic fluorescent probes an attractive and intensely investigated research topic. This interest is reflected in the steep rise in publications on the topic that have appeared over the past decade. Theranostic fluorescent probes, in their various incarnations, generally comprise a fluorophore linked to a masked drug, in which the drug is released as the result of certain stimuli, with both intrinsic and extrinsic stimuli being reported. This release is then signaled by the emergence of a fluorescent signal. Importantly, the use of appropriate fluorophores has enabled not only this emerging fluorescence as a spatiotemporal marker for drug delivery but also has provided modalities useful in photodynamic, photothermal, and sonodynamic therapeutic applications. In this review we highlight recent work on theranostic fluorescent probes with a particular focus on probes that are activated in tumor microenvironments. We also summarize efforts to develop probes for other applications, such as neurodegenerative diseases and antibacterials. This review celebrates the diversity of designs reported to date, from discrete small-molecule systems to nanomaterials. Our aim is to provide insights into the potential clinical impact of this still-emerging research direction.

Abstract
Immunotherapy harnesses the inherent immune system in the body to generate systemic antitumor immunity, offering a promising modality for defending against cancer. However, tumor immunosuppression and evasion seriously restrict the immune response rates in clinical settings. Catalytic nanomedicines can transform tumoral substances/metabolites into therapeutic products in situ, offering unique advantages in antitumor immunotherapy. Through catalytic reactions, both tumor eradication and immune regulation can be simultaneously achieved, favoring the development of systemic antitumor immunity. In recent years, with advancements in catalytic chemistry and nanotechnology, catalytic nanomedicines based on nanozymes, photocatalysts, sonocatalysts, Fenton catalysts, electrocatalysts, piezocatalysts, thermocatalysts and radiocatalysts have been rapidly developed with vast applications in cancer immunotherapy. This review provides an introduction to the fabrication of catalytic nanomedicines with an emphasis on their structures and engineering strategies. Furthermore, the catalytic substrates and state-of-the-art applications of nanocatalysts in cancer immunotherapy have also been outlined and discussed. The relationships between nanostructures and immune regulating performance of catalytic nanomedicines are highlighted to provide a deep understanding of their working mechanisms in the tumor microenvironment. Finally, the challenges and development trends are revealed, aiming to provide new insights for the future development of nanocatalysts in catalytic immunotherapy.

Abstract
Mild magnetic hyperthermia therapy (MMHT) holds great potential in treating deep-seated tumors, but its efficacy is impaired by the upregulation of heat shock proteins (HSPs) during the treatment process. Herein, Lac-FcMOF, a lactose derivative (Lac-NH2 ) modified paramagnetic metal-organic framework (FcMOF) with magnetic hyperthermia property and thermal stability, has been developed to enhance MMHT therapeutic efficacy. In vitro studies showed that Lac-FcMOF aggravates two-way regulated redox dyshomeostasis (RDH) via magnetothermal-accelerated ferricenium ions-mediated consumption of glutathione and ferrocene-catalyzed generation of ∙OH to induce oxidative damage and inhibit heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) synthesis, thus significantly enhancing the anti-cancer efficacy of MMHT. Aggravated RDH promotes glutathione peroxidase 4 inactivation and lipid peroxidation to promote ferroptosis, which further synergizes with MMHT. H22-tumor-bearing mice treated with Lac-FcMOF under alternating magnetic field (AMF) demonstrated a 90.4% inhibition of tumor growth. This work therefore provides a new strategy for the simple construction of a magnetic hyperthermia agent that enables efficient MMHT by downregulating HSPs and promoting ferroptosis through the aggravation of two-way regulated RDH.

Abstract
"Nanozymes" usually refers to inorganic nanomaterials with enzyme-like catalytic activities. The research into nanozymes is one of the hot topics on the horizon of interdisciplinary science involving materials, chemistry, and biology. Although great progress has been made in the design, synthesis, characterization, and application of nanozymes, the study of the underlying microscopic mechanisms and kinetics is still not straightforward. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations compute the potential energy surfaces along the reaction coordinates for chemical reactions, which can give atomistic-level insights into the micro-mechanisms and kinetics for nanozymes. Therefore, DFT calculations have been playing an increasingly important role in exploring the mechanisms and kinetics for nanozymes in the past years. The calculations either predict the microscopic details for the catalytic processes to complement the experiments or further develop theoretical models to depict the physicochemical rules. In this review, the corresponding research progress is summarized. Particularly, the review focuses on the computational studies that closely interplay with the experiments. The relevant experimental results without DFT calculations will be also briefly discussed to offer a historic overview of how the computations promote the understanding of the microscopic mechanisms and kinetics of nanozymes.

Abstract
In recent years, the anticancer effects of disulfiram, a clinical drug for anti-alcoholism, are confirmed. However, several defects limit the clinical translation of disulfiram obviously, such as Cu(II)-dependent anticancer activity, instability, and non-selectivity for cancer cells. Herein, a phosphate and hydrogen peroxide dual-responsive nanoplatform (PCu-HA-DQ) is reported, which is constructed by encapsulating disulfiram prodrug (DQ) and modifying hyaluronic acid (HA) on copper doping metal-organic frameworks (PCu MOFs). PCu-HA-DQ is expected to accumulate in tumor by targeting CD-44 receptors and enable guidance with magnetic resonance imaging. Inside the tumor, Cu(DTC)2 will be generated in situ based on a dual-responsive reaction. In detail, the high concentration of phosphate can induce the release of DQ, after that, the intracellular hydrogen peroxide will further mediate the generation of Cu(DTC)2 . In vitro and in vivo results indicate PCu-HA-DQ can induce the apoptosis as well as immunogenic cell death (ICD) of tumor cells distinctly, leading to enhanced immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) efficacy by combining the anti-programmed death-1 antibody. This work provides a portable strategy to construct a dual-responsive nanoplatform integrating tumor-targeted ability and multi-therapy, and the designed nanoplatform is also an ICD inducer, which presents a prospect for boosting systemic antitumor immunity and ICI efficacy.

Abstract
Nanozymes hold great prospects for bacteria-infected wound management, yet the spatial control of their catalytic activity in infected area and normal tissues remains mired by the heterogeneity of tissue microenvironment. Here, we develop a novel two-dimensional ternary chalcogenide nanodots (Cu2MoS4, CMS NDs) with renal clearable ability and controlled catalytic activity for bacteria-infected wound treatment. The two-dimensional CMS NDs (∼4 nm) are prepared by a simple microwave-assisted chemical synthetic route. Our results show that CMS NDs not only have peroxidase-like activity in a pH-dependent manner (pH < 5.5). Based on the generation of hydroxyl radical (OH) by adding H2O2, CMS NDs show > 2 log bacterial inactivation for both Gram-positive methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Gram-negative Escherichia coli (E. coli) under the acidic condition. Moreover, CMS NDs show good biocompatibility and can be excreted by the kidney in mice. In vivo results display that CMS NDs show good therapeutic effect against bacteria infected wound in the presence of H2O2, but no damage for normal tissues. Taken together, this work provides a renal clearable two-dimensional nanozyme with spatially controlled catalytic activity for the treatment of wounds and bacterial infections on the skin surface.

Abstract
The single-functionality of traditional chemodynamic therapy (CDT) reagents usually limits the therapeutic efficacy of cancer treatment. Synergistic nanocomposites that involve cascade reaction provide a promising strategy to achieve satisfactory anticancer effects. Herein, a cuprous-based nanocomposite (CCS@GOx@HA) is fabricated, which owns the tumor targeting ability and can undergo tumor microenvironment responsive cascade reaction to enhance the tumor therapeutic efficiency significantly. Surface modification of nanocomposite with hyaluronic acid enables the targeted delivery of the nanocomposite to cancer cells. Acid-triggered decomposition of nanocomposite in cancer cell results in the release of Cu+ , Se2- and GOx. The Cu+ improves the Fenton-like reaction with endogenous H2 O2 to generate highly toxic • OH for CDT. While GOx can not only catalyze the in situ generation of endogenous H2 O2 , but also accelerate the consumption of intratumoral glucose to reduce nutrient supply in tumor site. In addition, Se2- further improves the therapeutic effects of CDT by upregulating the reactive oxygen species (ROS) in tumor cells. Meanwhile, the surface modification endows the nanocomposite the good water dispersibility and biocompatibility. Moreover, in vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrate satisfactory anti-cancer therapeutic performance by the synergistic cascade function of CCS@GOx@HA than CDT alone.

Abstract
Unavoidable damage to normal tissues and tumor microenvironment (TME) resistance make it challenging to eradicate breast carcinoma through radiotherapy. Therefore, it is urgent to develop radiotherapy sensitizers that can effectively reduce radiation doses and reverse the suppressive TME. Here, a novel biomimetic PEGylated Cu2 WS4 nanozyme (CWP) with multiple enzymatic activities is synthesized by the sacrificing template method to have physical radiosensitization and biocatalyzer-responsive effects on the TME. Experiment results show that CWP can improve the damage efficiency of radiotherapy on breast cancer cell 4T1 through its large X-ray attenuation coefficient of tungsten and nucleus-penetrating capacity. CWP also exhibit strong Fenton-like reactions that produced abundant ROS and GSH oxidase-like activity decreasing GSH. This destruction of redox balance further promotes the effectiveness of radiotherapy. Transcriptome sequencing reveals that CWP induced ferroptosis by regulating the KEAP1/NRF2/HMOX1/GPX4 molecules. Therefore, owing to its multiple enzymatic activities, high-atomic W elements, nucleus-penetrating, and ferroptosis-inducing capacities, CWP effectively improves the efficiency of radiotherapy for breast carcinoma in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, CWP-mediated radiosensitization can trigger immunogenic cell death (ICD) to improve the anti-PD-L1 treatments to inhibit the growth of primary and distant tumors effectively. These results indicate that CWP is a multifunctional nano-sensitizers for radiotherapy and immunotherapy.

Abstract
Tumor recurrence and wound healing represent significant burdens for tumor patients after the surgical removal of melanomas. Wound dressings with wound healing and anticancer therapeutic abilities could help to solve these issues. Thus, a hybrid hydrogel made of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and polyethylene imine (PEI) was prepared by cross-linking imine bond and boronic acid bond. This hydrogel was loaded with ruthenium nanorods (Ru NRs) and glucose oxidase (GOx) and named as nanocomposite hydrogel (Ru/GOx@Hydrogel), exhibiting remarkable photothermal/photodynamic/starvation antitumor therapy and wound repair abilities. Ru NRs are bifunctional phototherapeutic agents that simultaneously exhibit intrinsic photothermal and photodynamic functions. Three-dimensional composite hydrogel loaded with GOx can also consume glucose in the presence of O2 during tumor starvation therapy. Near-infrared (NIR) light-triggered hyperthermia can not only promote the consumption of glucose, but also facilitate the ablation of residual cancer cells. The antitumor effect of the Ru/GOx@Hydrogel resulted in significant improvements, compared to those observed with either phototherapy or starvation therapy alone. Additionally, the postoperative wound was substantially healed after treatment with Ru/GOx@Hydrogel and NIR irradiation. Therefore, the Ru/GOx@Hydrogel can be used as a multi-stimulus-responsive nanoplatform that could facilitate on-demand controlled drug release, and be used as a promising postoperative adjuvant in combination therapy.

Abstract
Nanomedicine has significantly advanced precise tumor therapy, providing essential technical blessing for active drug accumulation, targeted consignment, and mitigation of noxious side effects. To enhance anti-tumor efficacy, the integration of multiple therapeutic modalities has garnered significant attention. Here, we designed an innovative CoFeSe2 @DMSA@FA nanocatalyst with Se vacancies (abbreviated as CFSDF), which exhibits synergistic chemodynamic therapy (CDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT), leading to amplified tumor oxidative stress and enhanced photothermal effects. The multifunctional CFSDF nanocatalyst exhibits the remarkable ability to catalyze the Fenton reaction within the acidic tumor microenvironment, efficiently converting hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 ) into highly harmful hydroxyl radicals (⋅OH). Moreover, the nanocatalyst effectively diminishes GSH levels and ameliorates intracellular oxidative stress. The incorporation of FA modification enables CFSDF to evade immune detection and selectively target tumor tissues. Numerous in vitro and in vivo investigations have consistently demonstrated that CFSDF optimizes its individual advantages and significantly enhances therapeutic efficiency through synergistic effects of multiple therapeutic modalities, offering a valuable and effective approach to cancer treatment.

Abstract
Natural metalloenzymes with astonishing reaction activity and specificity underpin essential life transformations. Nevertheless, enzymes only operate under mild conditions to keep sophisticated structures active, limiting their potential applications. Artificial metalloenzymes that recapitulate the catalytic activity of enzymes can not only circumvent the enzymatic fragility but also bring versatile functions into practice. Among them, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) featuring diverse and site-isolated metal sites and supramolecular structures have emerged as promising candidates for metalloenzymes to move toward unparalleled properties and behaviour of enzymes. In this review, we systematically summarize the significant advances in MOF-based metalloenzyme mimics with a special emphasis on active pocket engineering at the atomic level, including primary catalytic sites and secondary coordination spheres. Then, the deep understanding of catalytic mechanisms and their advanced applications are discussed. Finally, a perspective on this emerging frontier research is provided to advance bioinspired catalysis.

Abstract
Bio-enzymes have the advantages of strong substrate specificity, high catalytic efficiency, and minimal toxic side effects, making them promising drugs in cancer therapy. However, the poor stability and cellular penetrability of uncoated protein in the physiological environment severely restricts the direct application of Bio-enzyme. To address it, we report a metal-organic framework (MOF), Hf-DBA (H2DBA, biphenyl carboxylic acid ligands). The morphology of the Hf-DBA was revealed by TEM and the diameter was in the range of 200 to 350 nm. Hf-DBA acted a carrier for intracellular delivery and protection of horseradish peroxidase (HRP). The prepared HRP@Hf-DBA can catalyze the excess H2O2 in the tumor cells to generation of •OH for chemodynamic therapy (CDT). Compared with free HRP, the catalytic activity of HRP@Hf-DBA is significantly improved, and the optimal catalytic conditions are explored. The catalytic stability of HRP@Hf-DBA remained above 70% after 12 cycles of catalysis. After treatment with HRP@Hf-DBA, the apoptosis rates of A549 and Hela cells was 71.64%, and 76.86%. The results in vitro show that HRP@Hf-DBA can effectively inhibit the growth of tumor cells through enhanced CDT.

Abstract
The intensive investigation of chemodynamic therapy (CDT) for tumor eradication revealed that the therapeutic effects of this ROS-mediated therapy are limited by endogenous reductants and inefficient Fenton-like reactions. In this study, we developed a new Fe/Cu-AuNP-PEG nanocomposite to enhance CDT and provide a synergistic treatment for tumors. The Fe/Cu-AuNP-PEG nanocomposite demonstrated effective ˙OH production and high photothermal conversion efficiency under 808 nm illumination, which promoted the ˙OH production, thereby enhancing the CDT efficacy and exhibiting a synergistic treatment for cancer. More importantly, the Fe/Cu-AuNP-PEG nanocomposite showed the ability to deplete GSH and catalyze glucose to generate H2O2, which facilitated the Fenton-like reaction and reduced the antioxidant properties of tumors, further improving the efficacy of CDT. Therefore, the Fe/Cu-AuNP-PEG nanocomposite, with horseradish peroxidase-like, glutathione peroxidase-like, and glucose oxidase-like activities, is a promising anti-tumor agent for integrating enhanced CDT and photothermal therapy (PTT) with the enhancement of synergistic therapeutic effects.

[PMID: 37649230 DOI: 10.1002/smll.202303403] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2023] [Revised: 08/03/2023] [Indexed: 09/01/2023]
Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as promising novel therapeutics for treating malignancies due to their tunable porosity, biocompatibility, and modularity to functionalize with various chemotherapeutics drugs. However, the design and synthesis of dual-stimuli responsive MOFs for controlled drug release in tumor microenvironments are vitally essential but still challenging. Meanwhile, the catalytic effect of metal ions selection and ratio optimization in MOFs for enhanced chemodynamic therapy (CDT) is relatively unexplored. Herein, a series of MnFe-based MOFs with pH/glutathione (GSH)-sensitivity are synthesized and then combined with gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) and cisplatin prodrugs (DSCP) as a cascade nanoreactor (SMnFeCGH) for chemo-chemodynamic-starvation synergistic therapy. H+ and GSH can specifically activate the optimal SMnFeCGH nanoparticles in cancer cells to release Mn2+/4+ /Fe2+/3+ , Au NPs, and DSCP rapidly. The optimal ratio of Mn/Fe shows excellent H2 O2 decomposition efficiency for accelerating CDT. Au NPs can cut off the energy supply to cancer cells for starvation therapy and strengthen CDT by providing large amounts of H2 O2 . Then H2 O2 is catalyzed by Mn2+ /Fe2+ to generate highly toxic •OH with the depletion of GSH. Meanwhile, the reduced DSCP accelerates cancer cell regression for chemotherapy. The ultrasensitivity cascade nanoreactor can enhance the anticancer therapeutic effect by combining chemotherapy, CDT, and starvation therapy.

Abstract
The immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) antibody immunotherapy has demonstrated clinical benefits for multiple cancers. However, the efficacy of immunotherapy in tumors is suppressed by deficient tumor immunogenicity and immunosuppressive tumor microenvironments. Pyroptosis, a form of programmed cell death, can release tumor antigens, activate effective tumor immunogenicity, and improve the efficiency of ICB, but efficient pyroptosis for tumor treatment is currently limited. Herein, we show a mild hyperthermia-enhanced pyroptosis-mediated immunotherapy based on hollow carbon nanozyme, which can specifically amplify oxidative stress-triggered pyroptosis and synchronously magnify pyroptosis-mediated anticancer responses in the tumor microenvironment. The hollow carbon sphere modified with iron and copper atoms (HCS-FeCu) with multiple enzyme-mimicking activities has been engineered to induce cell pyroptosis via the radical oxygen species (ROS)-Tom20-Bax-Caspase 3-gasdermin E (GSDME) signaling pathway under light activation. Both in vitro and in vivo antineoplastic results confirm the superiority of HCS-FeCu nanozyme-induced pyroptosis. Moreover, the mild photothermal-activated pyroptosis combining anti-PD-1 can enhance antitumor immunotherapy. Theoretical calculations further indicate that the mild photothermal stimulation generates high-energy electrons and enhances the interaction between the HCS-FeCu surface and adsorbed oxygen, facilitating molecular oxygen activation, which improves the ROS production efficiency. This work presents an approach that effectively transforms immunologically "cold" tumors into "hot" ones, with significant implications for clinical immunotherapy.

Abstract
Traditional cancer therapies no longer meet the current demand for cancer precision therapy and personalized treatment and it's essential to develop new therapeutic modalities as well as to investigate new combination anti-tumor mechanisms. Therefore, amphiphilic prodrug polymer chains linking methoxy poly(ethylene glycol) (mPEG) and cinnamaldehyde (CA) with adipic acid dihydrazide (ADH) as the pH-responsive center were designed and synthesized, which could self-assemble into PAC micelles in aqueous solution. A supramolecular hydrogel was formed based on the host-guest interaction between α-cyclodextrin (α-CD) and PAC micelles. Polyetherimide (PEI) modified copper manganese sulfide nanoenzyme catalysts (PCMS NPs) were prepared by a solvothermal method, which could be uniformly dispersed in the hydrogel to form a composite supramolecular hydrogel (PCMS@PAC/α-CD Gel). Under an acidic tumor environment, pH-responsive hydrazone bonds were broken, resulting in the slow release of CA and the amplification of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) levels. PCMS NPs exerted peroxidase (POD)-like activity and catalase (CAT)-like activity, which could convert H2O2 into hydroxyl radicals (˙OH) and oxygen (O2) to alleviate intra-tumor hypoxia and induce apoptosis, while exerting glutathione oxidase (GPX)-like activity to consume glutathione (GSH) to further enhance the effect of chemodynamic therapy (CDT). Under near-infrared light (NIR) irradiation, PCMS NPs exhibited an excellent photothermal conversion performance, which could rapidly increase the temperature of tumor cells to above 42 °C for photothermal therapy (PTT) and convert O2 to a superoxide anion (˙O2-) by exerting oxidase (OXD)-like activity for photodynamic therapy (PDT). It was demonstrated by in vitro and in vivo experiments that the PCMS@PAC/α-CD Gel was highly cytotoxic to cancer cells and could effectively inhibit tumor growth, indicating the potential for applications in the fields of biomedicine and smart materials.

Abstract
Developing a nanotheranostic with a high sensing performance and efficient therapy was significant in cancer diagnosis and treatment. Herein, a Au nanoparticle and hairpin-loaded photosensitive metal-organic framework (PMOF@AuNP/hairpin) nanotheranostic was constructed by growing AuNPs on PMOF in situ and then attaching hairpins. On the one hand, the PMOF@AuNP/hairpin nanotheranostic could effectively transfer O2 into ROS, facilitating efficient PDT. Additionally, the nanotheranostic possessed catalase-like activity, which could effectively catalyze H2O2 to generate O2, thus achieving O2-evolving PDT and significantly enhancing the antitumor effect of PDT in vivo. On the other hand, the nanotheranostic showed a high loading efficiency of hairpins and achieved the sensitive and selective detection of miR-21 both in living cells and in vivo. Moreover, the nanotheranostic could dynamically monitor the miR-21 level. Due to the excellent imaging performance, the nanotheranostic could recognize cancer cells and might provide important information on cancer progression for PDT. The developed PMOF@AuNP/hairpin nanotheranostic provided a useful tool for tumor diagnosis and antitumor therapy.

Abstract
Premetastatic niche (PMN) is a prerequisite for tumor metastasis. Destruction of PMN can significantly suppress the tumor metastasis. Bone marrow-derived cells are usually recruited into the premetastatic organs to support PMN formation, which can be orchestrated by tumor-derived secreted factors. Neutrophils can chemotactically migrate towards the inflammatory sites and consume tumor-derived secreted factors, capable of acting as therapeutic agents for a broad-spectrum suppression of PMN formation and metastasis. However, neutrophils in response to inflammatory signals can release neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), promoting the tumor metastasis. Herein, live neutrophils are converted into dead neutrophils (C NE) through a quick-frozen process to maintain PMN-targeting and tumor-derived secreted factor-consuming abilities but eliminate NET-releasing shortcomings. Considering macrophages-regulated remodeling of the extracellular matrix in PMN, bacterial magnetosomes (Mag) are further hitchhiked on the surface of C NE to form C NEMag , which can repolarize macrophages from M2 to M1 phenotype for further disruption of PMN formation. A series of in vitro and in vivo assessments have been applied to confirm the effectiveness of C NEMag in suppression of PMN formation and metastasis. This study presents a promising strategy for targeted anti-metastatic therapy in clinics.

Abstract
Photoactivated immunotherapy has promising therapeutic efficacy for treating malignancies, especially metastatic tumors. In this study, an erythrocyte membrane-encapsulated copper indium selenium (RCIS) semiconductor nanomaterial was developed to eliminate primary and metastatic tumors, in which copper ions can induce chemodynamic performance, and the narrow band gap endows RCIS with the properties of near-infrared (NIR) light-activated photothermal and photodynamic amplified immunotherapy. Furthermore, RCIS can be used as a nanocarrier to form RNCIS nanoparticles (NPs) by loading NLG919, which blocks the indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase-1. Under NIR light irradiation, RNCIS NPs release NLG919 at tumor sites via photothermal properties, thereby promoting the recruitment of cytotoxic T lymphocytes and M1 polarization of macrophages, targeting the activation and amplification of immune responses. Herein, in vitro and in vivo studies showed that RNCIS NPs effectively kill cancer cells and eliminate primary and metastatic tumors. Therefore, this study suggests that semiconductor nanomaterials with narrow bandgaps have great potential as photoimmunotherapy agents and NIR light-responsive nanocarriers for controlled release, providing a great paradigm for synergetic tumor photoimmunotherapy. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: The Erythrocyte membrane-coated, NLG919-loaded copper indium selenium (RNCIS) semiconductor was designed for eliminating primary and metastatic tumors. RNCIS exhibits chemodynamic, photodynamic, and photothermal activated immunotherapy by inhibiting indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase-1. This can enhance the recruitment of cytotoxic T lymphocyte and M1 polarization of macrophage, leading to higher synergetic photo-immune therapeutic efficacy.

Abstract
Nanomaterial-based cancer therapy faces significant limitations due to the complex nature of the tumor microenvironment (TME). Starvation therapy is an emerging therapeutic approach that targets tumor cell metabolism using glucose oxidase (GOx). Importantly, it can provide a material or environmental foundation for other diverse therapeutic methods by manipulating the properties of the TME, such as acidity, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) levels, and hypoxia degree. In recent years, this cascade strategy has been extensively applied in nanoplatforms for ongoing synergetic therapy and still holds undeniable potential. However, only a few review articles comprehensively elucidate the rational designs of nanoplatforms for synergetic therapeutic regimens revolving around the conception of the cascade strategy. Therefore, this review focuses on innovative cascade strategies for GOx-based synergetic therapy from representative paradigms to state-of-the-art reports to provide an instructive, comprehensive, and insightful reference for readers. Thereafter, we discuss the remaining challenges and offer a critical perspective on the further advancement of GOx-facilitated cancer treatment toward clinical translation.

Abstract
Radiotherapy (RT) is dominantly used in breast cancer therapy but is facing fierce side effects because of the limited difference between tumor and normal tissues in response to ionizing radiation. Herein, we construct a core-shell nanoparticle of UiO-66-NH2@AuNS. Then the solid gold shell was etched into hollow AuNS (HAuNS) and further modified with biotin-PEG-SH (PEG-bio) to obtain HAuNS@PEG-bio. HAuNS@PEG-bio demonstrates effective near infrared II (NIR-II) region photothermal therapy (PTT) performance, and the increase of temperature at the tumor site promotes the blood circulation to alleviate the hypoxia in the tumor microenvironment (TME). Meanwhile, HAuNS exhibits strong X-ray absorption and deposition ability due to the high atomic coefficient of elemental Au (Z = 79) and hollowed-out structure. Through the dual radiosensitization of the high atomic coefficient of Au and the hypoxia alleviation from PTT of HAuNS, the breast cancer cells could undergo immunogenic cell death (ICD) to activate the immune response. At the in vivo level, HAuNS@PEG-bio performs NIR-II photothermal, radiosensitization, and ICD therapies through cellular targeting, guided by infrared heat and CT imaging. This work highlights that the constructed biotin-decorated hollow gold nanoshell has a promising potential as a diagnostic and treatment integration reagents for the breast cancer.

Abstract
Nanomaterial-based cancer therapy has recently emerged as a new therapeutic modality with the advantages of minimal invasiveness and negligible normal tissue toxicity over traditional cancer treatments. However, the complex microenvironment and self-protective mechanisms of tumors have suppressed the therapeutic effect of emerging antitumor modalities, which seriously hindered the transformation of these modalities to clinical settings. Due to the excellent biocompatibility, unique physicochemical properties and easy surface modification, carbon dots, as promising nanomaterials in the biomedical field, can effectively improve the therapeutic effect of emerging antitumor modalities as multifunctional nanoplatforms. In this review, the mechanism and limitations of emerging therapeutic modalities are described. Further, the recent advances related to carbon dot-based nanoplatforms in overcoming the therapeutic barriers of various emerging therapies are systematically summarized. Finally, the prospects and potential obstacles for the clinical translation of carbon dot-based nanoplatforms in tumor therapy are also discussed. This review is expected to provide a reference for nanomaterial design and its development for the efficacy enhancement of emerging therapeutic modalities.

Abstract
In situ mitochondrial oxidative stress amplification is an effective strategy to improve efficacy of cancer treatment. In this work, a tumor and mitochondria dual-targeted multifunctional nanoplatform CMS@AIPH@PDA@COTPP@FA (CAPCTF) was prepared, in which a thermally decomposable radical initiator AIPH was loaded inside the mesoporores of CuxMoySz (CMS) nanoparticles with polydopamine (PDA) covered films that were further covalently functionalized by a mitochondria-targeted CO donor (COTPP) and a directing group of folic acid (FA). The prepared CAPCTF nanoplatform selectively accumulated in cancer cells and further targeted the mitochondrial organelle where carbon monoxide (CO) and O2-independent free radicals (•OH/•R) were in situ generated upon 1064 nm laser irradiation. Furthermore, the CMS nanocarrier was capable of depleting the GSH overexpressed in the tumor microenvironment (TME), thus preventing free radical scavenging. As a result, the CAPCTF nanoplatform exhibited outstanding in vitro and in vivo antitumor efficacy under hypoxic conditions. This provides an innovative strategy that combines O2-independent free radicals (•OH/•R) generation, CO delivery and GSH consumption to amplify intracellular oxidative stresses and induce mitochondrial dysfunction, thus leading to cancer cells eradication, which may have significant implications for personalized hypoxic tumor treatment.

Abstract
Single-atom nanozymes (SAzymes) with high catalytic activity exhibit the potential to disequilibrate the reactive oxygen metabolic balance in the tumor microenvironment (TME), which contains several endogenous reductive substances such as glutathione (GSH). Herein, a novel nano-assembly (CDs@Pt SAs/NCs@DOX) is first constructed using drug-primed platinum (Pt) single-atom or nanocluster nanozymes with a Pt loading of 34.8%, which exhibits prominent dual enzymatic activities to mimic peroxidase (POD) and glutathione oxidase (GSHOx). The unique GSHOx-like activity can efficiently scavenge GSH with a relatively low Km (1.04 mm) and high Vmax (7.46 × 10-6 m s-1 ), thus avoiding single oxygen (1 O2 ) depletion. CDs@Pt SAs/NCs@DOX simultaneously demonstrates low-temperature photothermal therapy and TME- or laser-controlled disassembly and drug release, which can effectively regulate cellular redox homeostasis and achieve high tumor growth inhibition. These outcomes may provide promising strategies for the preparation of Pt SAzymes with multiple activities and variable-sized nano-assemblies, allowing for broader applications of SAzymes and nano-assemblies in the biomedical field.

Abstract
In photothermal treatments (PTTs), normal tissues around cancerous tumors get injured by excessive heat, whereas damaged cancer cells are easily restored by stress-induced heat shock proteins (HSPs) at low temperatures. Therefore, to achieve a unique tumor microenvironment (TME), it is imperative to increase PTT efficiency and reduce normal tissue injury by adopting appropriate reactive oxygen species (ROS) and lipid peroxides (LPO) cross-linked with HSPs. In the present research, a potential strategy for mild photothermal treatments (mPTTs) was proposed by initiating localized catalytic chemical reactions in TME based on Pd nanozyme-modified hydrogenated TiO2 (H-TiO2@Pd). In vitro and in vivo evaluations demonstrated that H-TiO2@Pd had good peroxidase-like activities (POD), glutathione oxidase-like activities (GSHOx), and photodynamic properties and also satisfactory biocompatibility for 4T1 cells. Localized catalytic chemical reactions in H-TiO2@Pd significantly depleted GSH to downregulate the protein expression of GPX4 and promoted the accumulation of LPO and ROS, which consumed HSP70 or inhibited its function in 4T1 cells. Hence, the as-constructed low-temperature photothermal therapeutic platform based on Pd nanozyme-modified H-TiO2 can be a promising candidate to develop a safe and effective mPTT for cancer treatments.

Abstract
Nanomedicines combining multimodal therapeutic modalities supply opportunities to eliminate tumors in a safe and efficient manner. However, the rigid encapsulation and covalent conjugation of different therapeutic reagents suffer from the complicated preparation process, premature drug leakage and severe adverse events. Herein, we report a self-enhanced supramolecular nanomedicine (SND) based on the host-guest molecular recognition between β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and camptothecin (CPT) for trimodal synergistic chemotherapy, photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT) using a single 670 nm near-infrared (NIR) laser. Thioketal bond and polyethylene glycol (PEG) segment are introduced into the structure of CPT-tk-PEG prodrug, thus the premature release of CPT is efficiently inhibited and the specific drug release is realized at tumor site where singlet oxygen (1O2)-generated PDT is performed. A boron dipyrromethene (BODIPY) theranostic agent is anchored onto β-CD, endowing SND with capabilities of fluorescence imaging, PDT and PTT. Benefiting from the supramolecular assembly, not only the solubility of CPT is improved by 40 times, but also the blood circulation time and tumor accumulation of SND are greatly promoted. In vivo, SND can effectively induce the immunogenic cell death (ICD) of tumor cells, thus performing prominent inhibition against both primary and distal tumors, and even anti-metastasis effect against liver without causing obvious systemic toxicity. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Although nanomedicines supply opportunities to eliminate tumors in an efficient manner, they usually suffer from premature drug leakage, complicated preparation process and severe side effects owing to the rigid encapsulation or covalent conjugation. Based on the host-guest molecular recognition, we developed a self-enhanced SND for synergistic chemotherapy, photodynamic therapy and photothermal therapy. Introduction of thioketal bond in CPT prodrug avoided the premature drug release, and the specific drug release was realized in the tumor cells. Profiting from the facile supramolecular assembly strategy, SND not only displayed a primary anticancer efficacy with a low systemic toxicity, but also efficiently inhibited the growth of distal tumors, contributing a vaccine-like function to eradicate the recurrent and metastatic tumors.

Abstract
AIMS Bacterial infection is a significant factor contributing to the deterioration of wounds, and the misuse of antibiotics has exacerbated bacterial resistance. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a novel antibacterial strategy to replace conventional therapies. This study aims to construct a self-activated cascade reaction nanozyme, f-FeNC@GOx, which triggers a cascade reaction in the presence of glucose. This cascade reaction generates highly toxic hydroxyl radicals (OH), thereby achieving the goal of eliminating bacteria and promoting wound healing. MATERIAL AND METHODS In vitro antibacterial experiments, bacterial spread plate method, Live/Dead staining, and crystal violet staining were conducted to analyze the antibacterial ability and mechanism of f-FeNC@GOx. In vivo experiments, a mouse wound model was established, and H&E and Masson staining of wound tissues were performed to assess the antibacterial activity of the f-FeNC@GOx in vivo. KEY FINDINGS The in vivo and in vitro experiments confirmed that f-FeNC@GOx exhibited significant antibacterial effect against both Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli in the presence of glucose. Furthermore, it showed optimal wound healing performance in the wound models. SIGNIFICANCE These findings suggested that f-FeNC@GOx was a novel and effective antibacterial nanomaterial, which provided a promising antibacterial strategy using nanoenzyme based cascade reaction.

Abstract
Indocyanine green (ICG), glucose oxidase (GOx), and copper(II) sulfate (Cu)-installed hybrid gel based on organic nanorod (cellulose nanocrystal [CNC]) and inorganic nanodisk (Laponite [LAP]) was developed to perform a combination of starvation therapy (ST), chemodynamic therapy (CDT), and photothermal therapy (PTT) for localized cancers. A hybrid CNC/LAP network with a nematic phase was designed to enable instant gelation, controlled viscoelasticity, syringe injectability, and longer in vivo retention. Moreover, ICG was introduced into the CNC/LAP gel system to induce hyperthermia of tumor tissue, amplifying the CDT effect; GOx was used for glucose deprivation (related to the Warburg effect); and Cu was introduced for hydroxyl radical generation (based on Fenton-like chemistry) and cellular glutathione (GSH) degradation in cancer cells. The ICG/GOx/Cu-installed CNC/LAP gel in combination with near-infrared (NIR) laser realized improved antiproliferation, cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, cellular GSH degradation, and apoptosis induction in colorectal cancer (CT-26) cells. In addition, local injection of the CNC/ICG/GOx/Cu/LAP gel into the implanted CT-26 tumor while irradiating it with NIR laser provided strong tumor growth suppression effects. In conclusion, the designed hybrid nanorod/nanodisk gel network can be efficiently applied to the local PTT/ST/CDT of cancer cells.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated biological catalysis involves serial programmed enzymatic reactions and plays an important part against infectious diseases; while the spatiotemporal control of catalytic treatment to break the limitations of the disease microenvironment is challenging. Here, a novel spatiotemporal catalytic microneedles patch (CMSP-MNs) integrated with dual-effective Cu2 MoS4 (CMS) and polydopamine (PDA) nanoparticles (NPs) for breaking microenvironment restrictions to treat wound infections is designed. Since CMS NPs are loaded in the needles, CMSP-MNs can catalytically generate diverse ROS to cause effective bacterial inactivation during bacterial infection process. Besides, PDA NPs are encapsulated in the backing layer, which facilitate ROS elimination and oxygen production for solving hypoxic problems in wound microenvironment and alleviating the expression of inflammatory factors during the inflammation process. Based on these features, it is demonstrated through cell and animal experiments that these nanozymes-integrated MNs patches can realize selective regulation of ROS level with bacterial inactivation and inflammatory treatment, resulting in minimized side effects of over-production ROS and effective anti-infected treatment. It is believed that the presented MNs can provide a new therapeutic strategy with spatiotemporal adjustable catalytic properties in biomedical areas.

Abstract
With the recent interest in the role of oxidative species/radicals in diseases, inorganic nanomaterials with redox activities have been extensively investigated for their potential use in nanomedicine. While many studies focusing on relieving oxidative stress to prevent pathogenesis and to suppress the progression of diseases have shown considerable success, another approach for increasing oxidative stress using nanomaterials to kill malignant cells has suffered from low efficiency despite its wide applicability to various targets. Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) is an emerging technique that can resolve such a problem by exploiting the characteristic tumour microenvironment to achieve high selectivity. In this review, we summarize the recent strategies and underlying mechanisms that have been used to improve the CDT performance using inorganic nanoparticles. In addition to the design of CDT agents, the effects of contributing factors, such as the acidity and the levels of hydrogen peroxide and antioxidants in the tumour microenvironment, together with their modulation and application in combination therapy, are presented. The challenges lying ahead of future clinical translation of this rapidly advancing technology are also discussed.

Abstract
Moderate oxygen (O2) supply and uneven distribution of oxygen at the tumor site usually hinder the therapeutic efficacy of hypoxia-activated prodrugs. In this report, we designed a ferrocene-containing supramolecular nanomedicine (PFC/GOD-TPZ) with the PEG corona and disulfide-bond cross-linked core to co-encapsulate 4-di-N-oxide tirapazamine (TPZ) and glucose oxidase (GOD). The PEG corona of PFC/GOD-TPZ could be weakly acidic tumor pH-responsively detached for an enhanced cellular internalization, while the disulfide-bond cross-linked core could be cleavaged by intracellular glutathione (GSH) to present a GSH-triggered drug-release behavior. Subsequently, the cascade reactions, including catalytic reactions among the released GOD, glucose, and O2 to generate H2O2 and the subsequent Fenton reaction between ferrocene and H2O2, occurred. With the depletion of O2, the non-toxic TPZ was activated and converted into the cytotoxic therapeutic agent benzotriazinyl (BTZ) radical under the exacerbated hypoxic microenvironment. Collectively, the PFC/GOD-TPZ provides a promising strategy for effective combination therapy of GOD-mediated starvation therapy, chemodynamic therapy (CDT), and hypoxia-activated chemotherapy (CT).

Abstract
Photothermal therapy (PTT) is an emerging field where photothermal agents could convert visible or near-infrared (NIR) radiation into heat to kill tumor cells. However, the low photothermal conversion efficiency of photothermal agents and their limited antitumor activities hinder the development of these agents into monotherapies for cancer. Herein, we have fabricated an ultrasmall polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP)-Fe-Cu-Ni-S (PVP-NP) nano-agent via a simple hot injection method with excellent photothermal conversion efficiency (∼96%). Photothermal therapy with this nano-agent effectively inhibits tumor growth without apparent toxic side-effects. Mechanistically, our results demonstrated that, after NIR irradiation, PVP-NPs can induce ROS/singlet oxygen generation, decrease the mitochondrial membrane potential, release extracellular Fe2+, and consume glutathione, triggering autophagy and ferroptosis of cancer cells. Moreover, PVP-NPs exhibit excellent contrast enhancement according to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) analysis. In summary, PVP-NPs have a high photothermal conversion efficiency and can be applied for MRI-guided synergistic photothermal/photodynamic/chemodynamic cancer therapy, resolving the bottleneck of existing phototherapeutic agents.

Abstract
Nanozymes are a class of nanomaterials that can specifically mimic the structures and catalytic activities as well as overcome limitations of natural enzymes and have hence been considered as a competitive alternative to natural enzymes. At present, plenty of nanozymes, especially those with peroxidase (POD)-like catalytic activity, have been extensively explored for biosensing. In this work, we proposed polyoxometalate-based heterojunction GdP5W30O110@WS2 nanoclusters (NCs) to exert intrinsic POD-like catalytic activity even under harsh catalytic conditions. Detailedly, GdP5W30O110@WS2 NCs possessing conducive POD-like catalytic activity can oxidize chromogenic substrates into colored substances in the presence of H2O2. On the strength of the POD-like catalytic activity of GdP5W30O110@WS2 NCs, a reliable analytical platform is then constructed after the optimization of catalytic conditions for the detection of H2O2, glutathione (GSH) and glucose via a simple TMB colorimetric strategy. This work advances the utilization of versatile polyoxometalate-based nanomaterials for biosensing, dramatically broadening the potential applications of other nanozyme-based biosensors.

Abstract
To achieve the maximum therapeutic effects and minimize adverse effects of trimodal synergistic tumor therapies, a cost-effective programmed photothermal (PTT)-chemodynamic (CDT)-coordinated dual drug chemotherapy (CT) trimodal synergistic therapy strategy in chronological order is proposed. According to the status or volumes of the tumors, the intensity and time of each therapeutic modality are optimized, and three modalities are combined programmatically and work in chronological order. The optimal synergistic therapy begins with high-intensity PTT for 10 min to ablate larger tumors, followed by medium-intensity CDT for several hours to eliminate medium-sized tumors, and then low-intensity coordinated dual drugs CT lasts over 48 h to clear smaller residual tumors. Composite nanoparticles, made of Fe-coordinated polydopamine mixed with copper peroxide as the cores and their surface dotted with lots of doxorubicin-Fe(III)-gossypol infinite coordination polymers (ICPs), have been developed to implement the strategy. These composite nanoparticles show excellent synergistic effects with the minimum dose of therapeutic agents and result in nearly 100% tumor inhibition for mice bearing PC-3 tumors and no observed recurrence within 60 days of treatment. The ratios of the different therapeutic agents in the composite nanoparticles can be adjusted to accommodate different types of tumors with this cost-effective programmed trimodal therapy strategy.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is a crucial gaseous medium for tumor growth and progression, but it may also cause mitochondrial disorder and DNA damage by drastically increasing its concentration in tumor. Due to its challenging administration and unpredictable release, NO based gas therapy is difficult to eliminate malignant tumor at low safe doses. To address these issues, herein, we develop a multifunctional nanocatalyst called Cu-doped polypyrrole (CuP) as an intelligent nanoplatform (CuP-B@P) to deliver the NO precursor BNN6 and specifically release NO in tumors. Under the aberrant metabolic environment of tumors, CuP-B@P catalyzes the conversion of antioxidant GSH into GSSG and excess H2O2 into ·OH through Cu+/Cu2+ cycle, which results in oxidative damage to tumor cells and the concomitant release of cargo BNN6. More importantly, after laser exposure, nanocatalyst CuP can absorb and convert photons into hyperthermia, which in turn, accelerates the aforesaid catalytic efficiency and pyrolyzes BNN6 into NO. Under the synergistic effect of hyperthermia, oxidative damage, and NO burst, almost complete tumor elimination is achieved in vivo with negligible toxicity to body. Such an ingenious combination of NO prodrug and nanocatalytic medicine provides a new insight into the development of NO based therapeutic strategies. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: A hyperthermia-responsive NO delivery nanoplatform (CuP-B@P) based on Cu-doped polypyrrole was designed and fabricated, in which CuP catalyzed the conversion of H2O2 and GSH into ·OH and GSSG to induce intratumoral oxidative damage. After laser irradiation, hyperthermia ablation and responsive release of NO further coupled with oxidative damage to eliminate malignant tumors. This versatile nanoplatform provides new insights into the combined application of catalytic medicine and gas therapy.

Abstract
Nanomaterials with photothermal combined chemodynamic therapy (PTT-CDT) have attracted the attention of researchers owing to their excellent synergistic therapeutic effects on tumors. Thus, the preparation of multifunctional materials with higher photothermal conversion efficiency and catalytic activity can achieve better synergistic therapeutic effects for melanoma. In this study, a Cu-Zn bimetallic single-atom (Cu/PMCS) is constructed with augmented photothermal effect and catalytic activity due to the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effect. Density functional theory calculations confirmed that the enhanced photothermal effect of Cu/PMCS is due to the appearance of a new d-orbital transition with strong spin-orbit coupling and the induced LSPR. Additionally, Cu/PMCS exhibited increased catalytic activity in the Fenton-like reaction and glutathione depletion capacity, further enhanced by increased temperature and LSPR. Consequently, Cu/PMCS induced better synergistic anti-melanoma effects via PTT-CDT than PMCS in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, compared with PMCS, Cu/PMCS killed bacteria more quickly and effectively, thus facilitating wound healing owing to the enhanced photothermal effect and slow release of Cu2+ . Cu/PMCS promoted cell migration and angiogenesis and upregulated the expression of related genes to accelerate wound healing. Cu/PMCS has potential applications in treating melanoma and repairing wounds with its antitumor, antibacterial, and wound-healing properties.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has become a promising cancer treatment approach with superior advantages. However, it remains a grand challenge to develop tumor microenvironment (TME)-responsive photosensitizers (PSs) for tumor-targeting precise PDT. Herein, the coupling Lactobacillus acidophilus (LA) probiotics with 2D CoCuMo layered-double-hydroxide (LDH) nanosheets (LA&LDH) is reported as a TME-responsive platform for precise NIR-II PDT. The CoCuMo-LDH nanosheets loaded on LA can be transformed from crystalline into amorphous through etching by the LA-metabolite-enabled low pH and overexpressed glutathione. The TME-induced in situ amorphization of CoCuMo-LDH nanosheets can boost its photodynamic activity for singlet oxygen (1 O2 ) generation under 1270 nm laser irradiation with relative 1 O2 quantum yield of 1.06, which is the highest among previously reported NIR-excited PSs. In vitro and in vivo assays prove that the LA&LDH can effectively achieve complete cell apoptosis and tumor eradication under 1270 nm laser irradiation. This study proves that the probiotics can be used as a tumor-targeting platform for highly efficient precise NIR-II PDT.

Abstract
Synthetic nanomotors have great application potential in deep tissue imaging and tumor treatment due to their active movement ability. Herein, a novel near infrared (NIR) light-driven Janus nanomotor is reported for active photoacoustic (PA) imaging and synergistic photothermal/chemodynamic therapy (PTT/CDT). Au nanoparticles (Au NPs) are sputtered on the half-sphere surface of copper-doped hollow cerium oxide nanoparticles after bovine serum albumin (BSA) modification. Such Janus nanomotors exhibit a rapid autonomous motion with a maximum speed of 110.6 ± 0.2 μm/s under 808 nm laser irradiation with a density of 3.0 W/cm2. With the assistance of light-powered motion, the Au/Cu-CeO2@BSA nanomotors (ACCB Janus NMs) can effectively adhere to and mechanically perforate tumor cells, thereby causing the higher cellular uptake and significantly enhancing the tumor tissue permeability in the tumor microenvironment (TME). ACCB Janus NMs also exhibit high nanozyme activity that can catalyze the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) to reduce the TME oxidative stress response. Meanwhile, the potential PA imaging capability of ACCB Janus NMs offer promise for early diagnosis of tumors due to the photothermal conversion efficiency of Au NPs. Therefore, the nanotherapeutic platform provides a new tool for effectively imaging of deep tumors site in vivo to achieve synergistic PTT/CDT and accurate diagnosis.

Abstract
Cuproptosis shows good application prospects in tumor therapy. However, the copper efflux mechanism and highly expressed intracellular reducing substances can inhibit the cuproptosis effects. In this study, a platelet vesicle (PV) coated cuprous oxide nanoparticle (Cu2O)/TBP-2 cuproptosis sensitization system (PTC) was constructed for multiple induction of tumor cuproptosis. PTC was prepared by physical extrusion of AIE photosensitizer (TBP-2), Cu2O, and PV. After the biomimetic modification, PTC can enhance its long-term blood circulation and tumor targeting ability. Subsequently, PTC was rapidly degraded to release copper ions under acid conditions and hydrogen peroxides in tumor cells. Then, under light irradiation, TBP-2 quickly enters the cell membrane and generates hydroxyl radicals to consume glutathione and inhibit copper efflux. Accumulated copper can cause lipoylated protein aggregation and iron-sulfur protein loss, which result in proteotoxic stress and ultimately cuproptosis. PTC treatment can target and induce cuproptosis in tumor cells in vitro and in vivo, significantly inhibit lung metastasis of breast cancer, increase the number of central memory T cells in peripheral blood, and prevent tumor rechallenge. It provides an idea for the design of nanomedicine based on cuproptosis.

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.

Abstract
The bacterial resistance due to the abuse of conventional antibiotics is regarded as a major problem for bacterial-induced infections and chronic wound healing. There is an urgent need to explore alternative antimicrobial strategies and functional materials with excellent antibacterial efficacy. Herein, guanosine monophosphate (GMP) and glucose oxidase (GOD) were coordinated with copper ions to obtain a bi-functional hybrid nanoflower (Cu-GMP/GODNF) as a cascade catalyst for promoting antibacterial efficacy. Besides the efficient conversion of glucose to hydrogen peroxide, the produced gluconic acid by loading GOD can supply a compatible catalytic environment to substantially improve the peroxidase activity for generating more toxic reactive oxygen species (ROS). So, the glucose-powered cascade catalytic reaction effectively killed bacteria. Moreover, H2O2 self-supplied by glucose can reduce harmful side effects of exogenous H2O2. Meanwhile, the adhesion between the Cu-GMP/GODNF and the bacterial membrane can enhance the antibacterial efficacy. Therefore, the achieved bi-functional hybrid nanoflower exhibited high efficiency and biocompatibility for killing bacteria in diabetes-related infections.

Abstract
Tumor microenvironment (TME)-responsive chemodynamic therapy (CDT) mediated by nanozymes has been extensively studied in oral squamous cell carcinoma. However, the low catalytic efficiency due to insufficient H2O2 in the TME is still a major challenge for its clinical translation. Herein, we present an antitumor nanoplatform based on a Mn-Co organometallic framework material (MnCoMOF), which shows peroxidase-like (POD-like) activity, loaded with glucose oxidase (GOx@MnCoMOF), demonstrating the ability of H2O2 self-supply and H2O2 conversion to toxic hydroxyl radicals. The encapsulated GOx efficiently catalyzes glucose into gluconic acid and H2O2 at the tumor site, which can cut off the energy supply to inhibit tumor growth and produce a large amount of H2O2 and acid to compensate for their lack in the tumor microenvironment. The POD-like activity of MnCoMOF can convert H2O2 into hydroxyl radicals and eliminate tumor cells. The nanoplatform exhibits enhanced tumor cell cytotoxicity in a high-glucose medium compared with a low-glucose medium, illustrating sufficient generation of H2O2 from glucose by GOx. The in vivo results indicate that GOx@MnCoMOF has excellent antitumor efficacy and can remodel the immune-suppressive tumor microenvironment. In conclusion, the GOx@MnCoMOF nanoplatform possesses dual enzymatic activities, i.e., POD-like and glucose oxidase, to achieve improved tumor-suppressive efficiency through synergistic starvation and chemodynamic therapy, thus providing a new strategy for the clinical treatment of oral cancer.
