Sonodynamic and Bioorthogonal Sonocatalytic Thrombotic Therapy Based on AIE Cationic Tetranuclear Ir(III) Complex Nanoplatform Guided by NIR‐Chemiluminescence Imaging

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
AIE‐active tetranuclear Ir(III) complex Ir‐4 as a sonosensitizer/sonocatalyst is formulated into a nanoplatform with an H2S donor. Ir‐4@S‐R NPs achieves combined endogenous NIR chemiluminescence imaging, sonodynamic therapy and release of H2S in situ by a bioorthogonal sonocatalytic reaction in vivo, achieving safe thrombolysis and anti‐inflammatory ...

Self‐Powered α Radionuclide Nanomedicine: Mitochondria‐Targeted Multimodal Energy Recycling for Amplified Radioimmunotherapy

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A multifunctional nanomedicine co‐loading of the α‐emitter 223RaCl2 within iron‐based MOFs is developed. Precisely targeted to mitochondria, it exploits the full decay spectrum to synchronize three therapeutic actions: direct α‐particle ionization, self‐powered catalytic H2O2 generation via secondary electrons, and immunogenic cell death induction ...
