摘要

Abstract

A dual-functional nanoplatform is demonstrated that is found to have the characteristics of cancer cell targeting

pH response

near-infrared fluorescence imaging

and lysosome targeting. It can simultaneously achieve pyroptosis and ferroptosis under the mediation of photons for cancer immunotherapy.
