Abstract Multimodal therapy often demonstrates superior therapeutic effects compared to monotherapy. Phototherapy is a promising approach for cancer treatment, as it can induce tumor pyroptosis and activate antitumor immune responses. However, mitochondrial oxidative stress during frequently stimulates protective autophagy in cells, thereby seriously impeding the progress of pyroptosis. Therefore, developing that enhances through inhibiting critical improving treatment efficacy. In this study, photoactivated mitochondrial‐targeting self‐assembled nanomicelle ( 3M@C ) integrates an aggregation‐induced emission photosensitizer inhibitor chloroquine designed. generate both type I II reactive oxygen species heat under light exposure, inducing dysfunction triggering pyroptosis, achieving photodynamic synergistic photothermal therapy. Meanwhile, inhibit mitophagy, further enhance effects, vivo experiments demonstrate strategy exhibits excellent biosafety significant efficacy, effectively suppressing growth. addition, method nanomicelles mitophagy inhibition providing novel photoimmunotherapy.

Abstract The stability and activity of self‐cascade enzymes based on glucose oxidase (GOx) peroxidase (POD) are usually low, which has significant limitations in tumor catalytic therapy. Building nanoislands‐supported single‐atom nanozymes with strong atomic‐nano interaction is an effective strategy for enhancing the enzyme‐like activity. Herein, noble metal iridium (Ir) single‐atoms successfully deposited CeO 2 quantum dots (QDs) nanoislands to construct Ir/CeO (SANIs). QDs abundant oxygen vacancies facilitate efficient electron transfer Ir at metal‐nanoislands interface. A liposomal nano platform encapsulated SANIs (Ir/CeO @Lipo) further developed vivo @Lipo exhibits excellent GOx‐ POD‐like due its unique structures confined effect nanoislands. Compared other reported nanozymes, catalyzes generate more ROS higher efficiency, demonstrating superior GOx‐POD In vivo, experiments demonstrate that possesses tumor‐targeting capability as well nearly complete ablation through ROS‐mediated apoptotic pathways. Thus, this work provides a new paradigm designing treatment strategies.

Abstract Fluorescence nanoscopy of living cells employs contrast agents to reveal intrinsic correlations between mitochondrial dynamics and functions at the molecular level. However, regular fluorophores usually present poor photostability, low brightness, non‐specific inhibitory effects, high phototoxicity, rapid photobleaching, which have hindered use these tools capture intricate dynamic features mitochondria. Herein, we engineered a fluorogen‐activating protein (FAP), AmpHecy@HSA , non‐covalent self‐assembly HSA amphiphilic hemicyanine (AmpHecy) fluorophore, with exceptional cell permeability, long‐lasting brightness/fluorogenicity, minimal phototoxicity. Crystallography femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy techniques were combined elucidate structural mechanistic intricacies fluorescence activation. These findings revealed that fluorophore photoactivation happens through conformation‐induced intramolecular charge transfer, whose kinetics is mainly determined by hydrophobic interaction nearby amino acids. This aligns classical simulations excited‐state conformation quantum mechanics. It was further demonstrated can be used for super‐resolved images mitochondria within without apparent work expands fluorescent toolkit based on FAP engineering studying live‐cell morphology function, advancing fields chemistry biomedicine.
