Abstract
Tumors are a major public health issue of concern to humans, seriously threatening the safety of people's lives and property. With the increasing demand for early and accurate diagnosis and efficient treatment of tumors, noninvasive optical imaging (including fluorescence imaging and photoacoustic imaging) and tumor synergistic therapies (phototherapy synergistic with chemotherapy, phototherapy synergistic with immunotherapy, etc.) have received increasing attention. In particular, light in the near-infrared second region (NIR-II) has triggered great research interest due to its penetration depth, minimal tissue autofluorescence, and reduced tissue absorption and scattering. Nanomaterials with many advantages, such as high brightness, great photostability, tunable photophysical properties, and excellent biosafety offer unlimited possibilities and are being investigated for NIR-II tumor imaging-guided synergistic oncotherapy. In recent years, many researchers have tried various approaches to investigate nanomaterials, including gold nanomaterials, two-dimensional materials, metal sulfide oxides, polymers, carbon nanomaterials, NIR-II dyes, and other nanomaterials for tumor diagnostic and therapeutic integrated nanoplatform construction. In this paper, the application of multifunctional nanomaterials in tumor NIR-II imaging and collaborative therapy in the past three years is briefly reviewed, and the current research status is summarized and prospected, with a view to contributing to future tumor therapy.

Abstract
A pH-responsive charge-convertible drug delivery nanocarrier (MSN-TPZ-GOx@ZnO@PAH-PEG-DMMA, abbreviated as MTGZ@PPD) was prepared, which could specifically release hypoxia-activated chemotherapeutic Tirapazamine (TPZ) and glucose oxidase (GOx) in the tumor site for precise starvation and chemo synergistic oncotherapy. Acid-responsive Schiff base structure modified mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) co-load with GOx and TPZ, then link with ZnO quantum dots (QDs). PAH-PEG-DMMA (PPD) polymer makes MTGZ@PPD with biocompatibility and charge-convertible feature. MTGZ@PPD is negatively charged at physiological pH, and the charge reversal of PPD and acidolysis of the Schiff base structure under the acidic tumor microenvironment (TME) induce a positively charged surface, which could potentiate the cell internalization. ZnO QDs could decompose at acidic TME, achieving controllable drug release. GOx could starve the tumor cells and enhance hypoxia level, thus initiates the activation of TPZ to realize synergistic starvation therapy and chemotherapy. This intelligent MTGZ@PPD has shown great potential for starvation and chemo synergistic oncotherapy.

Abstract
Immuno-oncotherapy has shown great promise for the cure of late-stage and metastatic cancer. Great efforts have tried to improve the overall response rate (ORR) and to reduce the immune-related adverse events (irAEs). Antigen presentation, T cell activation and killing are interlocking and distinct steps to initiate effective anti-tumor immune responses. Aiming to overcome the tumor immune evasion whose mechanisms include limited release of neoantigen, suppressed infiltration of antigen-presenting cells (APCs) and T cells, and the expression of immune checkpoints (ICPs), combinational therapeutic strategies have shown great potential by activating the anti-tumor immune responses together with deactivating immunosuppressive conditions simultaneously. In this direction, photothermal therapy (PTT) has attracted attention due to the efficient ablation of tumor cells, of which the released immunogenic tumor debris can activate host immune responses. The combination of immunoadjuvants and/or ICP inhibitors can boost the anti-tumor immune responses, realizing PTT-synergized immuno-oncotherapy. In this regard, numerous multifunctional nanomaterials have been designed with integration of photothermal and immuno-oncotherapeutic agents into one package via well-designed surface modification and functionalization. This review summarizes the recent studies on the synergistic strategies for the immuno-oncotherapy based on photothermal nanoagents and the mechanisms that trigger the systemic anti-tumor immune responses and PTT-synergized immuno-oncotherapy. This article is categorized under: Therapeutic Approaches and Drug Discovery > Nanomedicine for Oncologic Disease.

Abstract
Rational design of tumor microenvironment (TME)-activated nanocomposites provides an innovative strategy to construct responsive oncotherapy. In colorectal cancer (CRC), the specific physiological features are the overexpressed endogenous H2 S and slightly acidic microenvironment. Here, a core-shell Cu2 O@CaCO3 nanostructure for CRC "turn-on" therapy is reported. With CaCO3 responsive to pH decomposition and Cu2 O responsive to H2 S sulfuration, Cu2 O@CaCO3 can be triggered "on" into the therapeutic mode by the colorectal TME. When the CaCO3 shell decomposes and releases calcium in acidic colorectal TME, the loss of protection from the CaCO3 shell exposes the Cu2 O core to be sulfuretted by H2 S to form metabolizable Cu31 S16 nanocrystals that gain remarkably strong near-infrared absorption. After modifying hyaluronic acid, Cu2 O@CaCO3 can achieve synergistic CRC-targeted and TME-triggered photothermal/photodynamic/chemodynamic/calcium-overload-mediated therapy. Moreover, it is found that the generation of hyperthermia and oxidative stress from Cu2 O@CaCO3 nanocomposites can efficiently reprogram the macrophages from the M2 phenotype to the M1 phenotype and initiate a vaccine-like immune effect after primary tumor removal, which further induces an immune-favorable TME and intense immune responses for anti-CD47 antibody to simultaneously inhibit CRC distant metastasis and recurrence by immunotherapy.
