Boosting Microwave Thermo‐Dynamic Cancer Therapy of TiMOF via COF‐Coating

Abstract Microwave (MW) dynamic therapy (MDT) can efficiently eliminate tumor residue resulting from MW thermal therapy. However, MDT is currently in its infancy, and luck of effective MDT sensiters severely limits its clinical therapeutic effect. Herein, based on TiMOF (TM), a high‐efficiency MW sensitizer is designed for MW thermo‐dynamic therapy. TM can generate heat and cytotoxic reacyive oxygen species (ROS) under MW irradiation and has the potential to be used as an MW sensitizer, while the suboptimal MW dynamic sensitization effect of TM limits its application. Inorder to improve the MW dynamic sensitization performance, a covalent organic framework (COF) with good stability and a large conjugate system is used to cover TM, which is conductive to electron and energy transfer, thus increasing the ROS generation rate and prolonging the ROS lifetime. In addition, loading Ni NPs endow nanomaterials with magnetic resonance imaging capabilities. Therefore, this work develops an MW sensitizer based on TM for the first time, and the mechanism of COF coating to enhance the MW dynamic sensitization of TM is preliminarily explored, which provides a new idea for the further development of MW sensitizer with great potential.
