Synergistic Activation of Immunogenic Cell Death and the cGAS–STING Pathway by Engineered Zinc/Manganese‐Based Metal–Organic Framework Nanoplatforms for Colon Cancer Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A zinc/manganese (Zn/Mn)‐based metal‐organic framework (MOF) loaded with the STING agonist c‐di‐AMP diammonium (denoted AMP@Zn/Mn‐MOF) was developed to synergistically activate the cGAS‐STING pathway and induce immunogenic cell death. This nanoplatform reprograms the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment, significantly enhancing anti‐PD‐L1 ...

Extended Fused Carbazole‐BODIPY, High Brightness NIR Organic Dyes

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Highly fused boron‐dipyrromethene (BODIPY) with a strong donor group has been synthesized, and their photophysical behaviors fully characterized. They exhibit outstanding brightness for fluorophores emitting in the NIR region. Water‐soluble nanoparticles filled with one of these dyes demonstrate high efficiency as the NIR II visualization agent ...

EDTA‐Functionalized Nanoscale Metal–Organic Framework for Onco‐Cardiology via Radiochemotherapy Synergy and Spatiotemporally Matched Iron Chelation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Doxorubicin (DOX)‐induced cardiotoxicity is a major limitation to its broader clinical application, while cardioprotective interventions often risk reducing the anticancer efficacy of DOX. To address these challenges, this work constructs an EDTA‐functionalized metal–organic framework that enhances tumor therapy and provides efficient cardioprotection ...

CRISPR/Cas9‐Based Vanadium MXene‐Free Radical Spatiotemporally Controlled Nanoreactor for Photothermal‐Induced Multi‐Effect Synergistic Antitumor Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, a MXene‐based V4C3 nanoplatform, VARH, was constructed, which achieved a photothermal conversion efficiency of 44.21% in the NIR‐II window. This platform integrated photothermal therapy, chemodynamic therapy, and thermodynamic therapy with CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated heat shock protein 90 knock‐out technology.

Metal‐Supramolecular Drug Delivery System Empowered Meningeal Lymphatic Vessels‐Bridged Intracranial‐Peripheral Dual Immune Modulation for Reversing Glioblastoma Immune Suppression

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel metal‐supramolecular nanoplatform (FLM@VC) enables efficient brain delivery via meningeal lymphatic vessels (MLVs), bypassing the blood‐brain barrier (BBB) through subcutaneous administration. It reprograms tumor‐associated macrophages (TAMs) and remodels the MLVs to promote DC trafficking and CD8+ T cell activation.
