Abstract

Abstract The therapeutic effect of reactive oxygen species (ROS)-involved cancer therapies is significantly limited by shortage of oxy-substrates, such as hypoxia in photodynamic therapy (PDT) and insufficient hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) in chemodynamic therapy (CDT). Here, we report a H 2 O 2 /O 2 self-supplying nanoagent, (MSNs@CaO 2 -ICG)@LA, which consists of manganese silicate (MSN)-supported calcium peroxide (CaO 2 ) and indocyanine green (ICG) with further surface modification of phase-change material lauric acid (LA). Under laser irradiation, ICG simultaneously generates singlet oxygen and emits heat to melt the LA. The exposed CaO 2 reacts with water to produce O 2 and H 2 O 2 for hypoxia-relieved…
