Single-atom nanozymes (SAzymes), with individually isolated metal atom as active sites, have shown tremendous potential enzyme-based drugs for enzymatic therapy. However, using SAzymes in tumor theranostics remains challenging because of deficient activity and insufficient endogenous H2O2. We develop an external-field-enhanced catalysis by atom-level engineered FeN4-centered nanozyme (FeN4-SAzyme) radio-enzymatic This FeN4-SAzyme exhibits peroxidase-like capable catalyzing H2O2 into hydroxyl radicals converting single-site FeII species to FeIII subsequent glutathione oxidase-like activity. Density functional theory calculations are used rationalize the origin self-cascade Importantly, X-rays can improve overall cascade reaction process via promoting conversion frequency FeII/FeIII. As a producer, natural glucose oxidase is further decorated onto surface yield final construct GOD@FeN4-SAzyme. The resulting GOD@FeN4-SAzyme not only supplies situ continuously produce highly toxic but also induces localized deposition radiation dose, subsequently inducing intensive apoptosis ferroptosis vitro. Such synergistic effect radiotherapy therapy allows improved growth inhibition minimal side effects vivo. Collectively, this work demonstrates introduction external fields enhance enzyme-like performance without changing their properties highlights robust therapeutic self-supplying amplifying reactions address limitations treatment.

Dietary methionine interventions are beneficial to apoptosis-inducing chemotherapy and radiotherapy for cancer, while their effects on ferroptosis-targeting therapy immunotherapy unknown. Here we show the length of time deprivation affects tumoral ferroptosis differently. Prolonged prevents glutathione (GSH) depletion from exceeding death threshold by blocking cation transport regulator homolog 1 (CHAC1) protein synthesis. Whereas, short-term starvation accelerates stimulating CHAC1 transcription. In vivo, dietary with intermittent but not sustained augments ferroptosis. Intermittent also sensitizes tumor cells against CD8+ T cell-mediated cytotoxicity synergize checkpoint blockade upregulation. Clinically, correlates clinical benefits improved survival in cancer patients treated blockades. Lastly, triple combination deprivation, system xc- inhibitor PD-1 shows superior antitumor efficacy. Thus, is a promising regimen target augment immunotherapy.

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is considered as an emerging therapeutic modality against cancer with high spatiotemporal selectivity because the utilized photosensitizers (PSs) are only active and toxic upon light irradiation. To maximize its effectiveness, PDT usually applied repetitively for ablating various tumors. However, total overdose of PSs from repeated administrations causes severe side effects. Herein, acidity-activated graphene quantum dots-based nanotransformers (GQD NT) developed PS vehicles long-period tumor imaging PDT. Under guidance Arg-Gly-Asp peptide, GQD NT targets to tissues actively, then loosens enlarges in acidity, thus promising long retention. Afterwards, transforms into small pieces better penetration tumor. Upon laser irradiation, generates mild hyperthermia that enhances cell membrane permeability further promotes uptake.
