Tumor-Activated and Metal–Organic Framework Assisted Self-Assembly of Organic Photosensitizers

Tumor accumulation and intratumoral singlet oxygen (1O2) generation efficiency of photosensitizers (PSs) are two essential factors that determine their photodynamic therapy (PDT) efficacies. How to maximize the PS performance at the tumor site is of great research interest. Herein, we report a metal–organic framework (ZIF-8, ZIF = zeolitic imidazolate framework) assisted in vivo self-assembly nanoplatform, ZIF-8-PMMA-S-S-mPEG, as an effective...
