Abstract

Abstract Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) triggered by ultrasound (US) has attracted increasing attention owing to its abilities to overcome critical limitations including low tissue‐penetration depth and phototoxicity in photodynamic therapy. Herein, the design of a new type of sonosensitizer is revealed, namely, ultrasmall oxygen‐deficient bimetallic oxide MnWO X nanoparticles, for multimodal imaging‐guided enhanced SDT against cancer. As‐made MnWO X nanoparticles with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) modification show high physiological stability and biocompatibility. Interestingly, such MnWO X ‐PEG nanoparticles exhibit highly efficient US‐triggered production of 1 O 2 and •OH, higher than that of previously reported…
