Abstract:Exogenous stimuli-activated catalytic therapies for cancer, such as photodynamic therapy, have significant clinical potential. Despite the recent progress, the low catalytic production efficiency of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the overexpression of glutathione (GSH) in the tumor microenvironment (TME) are major challenges for exogenous stimulative catalytic therapy. Bismuth-based heterojunction nanomaterials can generate ROS under various exogenous stimuli. Based on this, we developed an exogenously exci… Show more
