The development of bioorthogonal activation in drug release represents a promising avenue for precise and safe anticancer treatment. However, two significant limitations currently hinder their clinical application: i) the necessity separate administration precursor its corresponding activator, leading to poor accumulation potential side effects; ii) reliance on exogenous metal or organic activators triggering activation, which often exhibit low efficiency systemic toxicity when extending living animals. To overcome these limitations, nitric oxide (NO)-mediated codelivery nanoassembly, termed TTB-NH

Bispecific antibodies represent an innovative paradigm in cancer therapy, offering broader therapeutic potential compared to conventional monoclonal antibodies. To increase tumor selectivity while mitigating off-target effects normal tissues, the concept of prodrug-based bispecific has emerged. This review delineates various mechanisms underlying action antibodies, including protease-mediated activation, steric hindrance release via proteolytic processing, activation by soluble factors, conditional assembly, and chain exchange-mediated activation. We also address critical challenges that must be overcome optimize development clinical application these sophisticated agents.

Chalcogens are used as sensitive redox-responsive reagents in tumor therapy. However, chalcogen bonds triggered by external ionizing radiation, rather than internal environmental stimuli, enable site-directed and real-time drug degradation target lesions. This approach helps to bypass chemoresistance global systemic toxicity, presenting a significant advancement over traditional chemoradiotherapy. In this study, we fabricated hybrid monodisperse organosilica nanoprodrug based on homonuclear single (disulfide (S-S, approximately 240 kJ/mol), diselenium (Se-Se, 172 tellurium (Te-Te, 126 kJ/mol)), including ditelluride-bond-bridged MONs (DTeMSNs), diselenide-bond-bridged (DSeMSNs) disulfide-bond-bridged (DSMSNs). The results demonstrated that differences electronegativities atomic radii influenced their oxidation sensitivities reactivities. Tellurium, with the lowest electronegativity, showed highest sensitivity, followed selenium sulfur. DTeMSNs exhibited highly responsive cleavage upon exposure X-rays, resulting TeO
