A nanoscale metal–organic framework for combined photodynamic and starvation therapy in treating breast tumors

Abstract

We demonstrate herein an effective cascade reaction for combined photodynamic and starvation therapy in treating breast tumors based on a photosensitizer and CO prodrug decorated NMOF. The PDT-induced ROS can further trigger CO release, and the high antitumor efficiency derived from both 1O2 and CO is well confirmed by in vitro assays and in vivo trials.
