Versatile Bi₂MoO₆/Prussian Blue-Au nanoplatform for oxygen-self-produced and GSH-depleted enhanced sonodynamic...

Deprivation of oxygen and scavenging of reactive oxygen species (ROS) severely restrict the antitumor efficiency of sonodynamic therapy (SDT). To address these challs, we report the Bi₂MoO₆/Prussian Blue-Au (BMO/PB-Au) nanosystem as piezoelectric sonosensitiser for highly efficient ROS production under ultrasonic irradiation. In this system, the nanosystem has catalase-like (CAT) and glutathione oxidase (GSHOD) catalytic activity, which can enhance SDT effectively by producing reactive oxygen species and consuming glutathione (GSH). While the narrow bandgap and heterojunctions contribute to the improved charge separation and charge recombination suppression of the piezoelectric semiconductor BMO, accelerating ROS generation. Packaging MCF-7 cancer cell membranes (CM) on the surface of BMO/PB-Au will effectively improve the enrichment of nanoparticles in tumor tissue. The in vivo results showed that the BMO/PB-Au@CM nanoplatform can effectively inhibit tumor growth through the enhanced SDT effect. Our findings provide a paradigm to rationally design hypoxia-relieve and GSH-depleted SDT platform to for promoting cancer therapy efficiency.
