Hydrangea-structured tumor microenvironment responsive degradable nanoplatform for hypoxic tumor multimodal imaging and therapy

Developing new strategies to alleviate tumor hypoxia and enhance the therapeutic efficacy towards solid tumors is of great significance to tumor therapy. Herein, to overcome tumor hypoxia, specifically designed aza-BODIPY photosensitizer is co-loaded with anti-cancer drug (doxorubicin, DOX) onto the hydrangea-structured MnO2 nanoparticles, and a tumor microenvironment (TME) responsive degradable nanoplatform (MDSP NP) is established. MDSP NPs...
