Abstract

Metal-organic framework-based metal ion therapy has attracted increasing attention to promote the cascade wound-healing process. However, multimetal ion synergistic administration and accurately controlled ion release are still the challenges. Herein, an aptamer-functionalized silver@cupriferous Prussian blue (ACPA) is established as a metal-based theranostic nanoagent for a chronic nonhealing diabetic wound treatment. Prussian blue offers a programmable nanoplatform to formulate metal ion prescriptions, achieving cooperative wound healing. Silver, copper, and iron ions are released from ACPA controlled by the near-infrared-triggered mild hyperthermia and then synergistically participate in antipathogen, cell migration, and revascularization. ACPA also demonstrates a unique core-satellite nanostructure which enables it with improved surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) capability as potent bacteria-targeted Raman-silent nanoprobe to monitor the residual bacteria during wound healing with nearly zero background. The theranostic feature of ACPA allows high-performance SERS imaging-guided chronic wound healing in infectious diabetic skin and keratitis.
