Nano‐networks via reaction‐induced self‐assembly coordinate spatiotemporal multi‐drug delivery for acute kidney injury therapy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Multifunctional nano‐networks (NNWs) are prepared via reaction‐induced self‐assembly (RISA) of spermidine (SPD), epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), 2‐formylphenylboronic acid (2‐FPBA), and deferoxamine (DFO) through dynamic iminoboronate bonds. These NNWs leverage the oxidative AKI microenvironment to trigger disintegration, enabling site‐specific ...
