Nitric oxide (NO)-based gas therapy has attracted increasing attention as a promising approach for tumor treatment, but elevated levels of glutathione (GSH) in the microenvironment significantly limit their therapeutic effectiveness. In this study, type engineered photoactivatable nanomicelles Ce6/NI@PEP@HA (CNPH) were developed combinational photodynamic and NO therapy. CNPH was capable targeted accumulation to tumors, where it depleted GSH released effectively produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) with oxidative damage under laser irradiation at 660 nm. The consumption induced deactivation peroxidase activity, leading enhanced toxic lipid peroxide enabled ferroptosis-like outcome. Additionally, effective production ROS resulted mitochondrial dysfunction, characterized by disruption membrane potential decreased adenosine triphosphate concentration. vivo animal experiments indicated that achieved inhibition 89.1%, proven be more strategy contrast any single modality. consequence, opened up new horizon cutting-edge noninvasive paradigm advanced treatments.
