A metal–organic cage-based nanoagent for enhanced photodynamic antitumor therapy

Abstract

Herein, we report, for the first time, a Pd6L8(NO3)5.4(ICG)6.6 (ICG = indocyanine green) cage-based hexagonal nanoplate (3) via a combined nanoprecipitation and solid-state anion-exchange approach. Nanoplate 3 possesses enhanced near-infrared (NIR) light-triggered 1O2 generation, high cellular uptake selective lysosome-targeting ability, and, consequently, excellent antineoplastic activity.
