Abstract

With the rapid advancement of DNA technology, intelligent DNA nanoreactors (iDNRs) have emerged as sophisticated tools that harness the structural versatility and programmability of DNA. Due to their structural and functional programmability, iDNRs play an important and unique role in in vivo tumor diagnosis and therapy. This review provides an overview of the structural design methods for iDNRs based on advanced DNA technology, including enzymatic reaction-mediated and enzyme-free strategies. This review also focuses on how iDNRs achieve intelligence through functional design, as well as the applications of iDNRs for in vivo tumor diagnosis and therapy. In summary, this review summarizes current advances in iDNRs technology, discusses existing challenges, and proposes future directions for expanding their applications, which are expected to provide insights into the development of the field of in vivo tumor diagnostics and targeted therapies.
