Abstract

Ferroptosis Therapy In article number 2309086, Baofen Ye, Yue Wang, Ran Yan, and co-works developed a nanophotosensitizer IR783-Fe@MnO2-HA, a hyaluronic acid-encapsulated iron complex photosensitizer with a hollow double-shell nanostructure. This nanophotosensitizer targets the CD44 receptor, releases Fe3+ and IR783 in acidic conditions, enhances the Fenton reaction, induces ferroptosis, and exhibits tumor-targeting ability and efficient tumor inhibition in vivo due to the synergistic effects of photodynamic and ferroptosis antitumor therapies.
