Abstract

In article number 1800049, Dong Wang, Yu Chen, and co-workers report amplification of photo-therapeutic efficacy by constructing a near infrared (NIR)-responsive multifunctional nanoplatform, i.e., Nano-RBCs (red blood cells), for synergistic cancer phototherapy using a single NIR irradiation (808 nm laser). The Nano-RBCs concurrently achieve mitochondria-targeting phototherapy, synergistic photothermal therapy (PTT)/photodynamic therapy (PDT), self-sufficient oxygen-augmented PDT, and multiple-imaging guidance/monitoring.
