Abstract
Current photodynamic therapy (PDT) faces several intrinsic limitations, including insufficient oxygen supply and limited penetration of external light sources. Herein, we report a nanoconjugate, which, in response to the elevated hydrogen peroxide levels associated with tumor tissues, can supplement the oxygen needed for PDT and provide local self-illumination. Consisting of a MnFe2O4 core, a metal-organic framework shell loaded with the chemiluminescence reagent luminol, and a hyaluronic acid surface coating, the nanoconjugate is highly effective for suppressing cancer tissues in vivo via PDT in the absence of externally delivered light.
