Single Multifunctional Nanocabinets‐Based Target‐Activated Feedback for Simultaneously Precise Monitoring and Therapy

Abstract Stimulus‐responsive mode is highly desirable for improving the precise monitoring and physiological efficacy of endogenous biomarkers (EB). However, its integrated application for visual detection and therapy is limited by inappropriate use of responsive triggers and poor delivery of EB signal‐transducing agents, which remain challenging in simultaneous monitoring and noninvasive therapy of EB and EB‐mediated pathological events. Target microRNA (miRNA) as controllable reaction triggers and DNAzyme as signal‐transducing agent are proposed to develop target‐stimulated multifunctional nanocabinets (MFNCs) for the visual tracking of both miRNA and miRNA‐mediated anticancer events. The MFNCs, equipped with a target‐discriminating sequence‐incorporated DNAzyme motif, can specifically release therapeutic molecules through target‐triggered conformational switches, accompanied by transduction signal output. Target detection and molecule release performance are recorded in parallel via reverse dual‐signal feedback at the single‐molecule level. In addition, the intrinsic thermal‐replenishing of the MFNCs leads to tumor ablation without invasive exogenous aids. The system achieves visual target quantification, anticancer molecule real‐time tracking, and tumor suppression in vivo and in vitro. This work proposes a new paradigm for precise visual exploration of EB or EB‐mediated bio‐events and provides a demonstration of efficacious all‐in‐one detection and therapy based on the target‐triggered multifunctional nanosystem.
