Versatile Co‐Engineering of Immunogenic Cell Death‐Primed Dead Tumor Cell Bodies With Tumor‐Activated MnO2 for cGAS‐STING‐Potentiated Personalized Immunotherapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
DTBEI@CS@MnO2, fabricated via modular electrostatic co‐engineering and photothermal/photodynamic immunogenic cell death, specifically responds to the acidic and GSH‐rich tumor microenvironment. This triggers the release of DTBEI that provides tumor antigens, DNA, and DAMPs, as well as the generation of Mn2+, thereby synergistically potentiating cGAS ...
