DNA-mediated excitonic upconversion FRET switching
Excitonics is a rapidly expanding field of nanophotonics in which the harvesting of photons, ensuing creation and transport of excitons via Förster resonant energy transfer (FRET), and subsequent charge separation or photon emission has led to the ...

Photo‐responsive carbon dots for pyroptosis‐mediated anti‐tumor application
Photo‐responsive CDs generate ROS to induce tumor cell pyroptosis, thereby stimulating antitumor immunity. Abstract Pyroptosis refers to a kind of lytic programmed cell death, characterized by the release of pro‐inflammatory cytokines during the process. Owing to its immune response stimulation ability, pyroptosis has garnered considerable attention in

We developed HMCCNs@MAN, a biomimetic drug–gas codelivery platform for precise mild photothermal immunotherapy of liver fibrosis. Coated with hybrid macrophage‐aHSC membranes, it enables dual‐targeted delivery of MAN to the hepatic fibrosis site. Under NIR laser irradiation, HMCCNs@MAN can generate oxygen, release MAN, and produce heat.
