Mitochondria-specific nanocatalysts for chemotherapy-augmented sequential chemoreactive tumor therapy
The therapeutic modality of “chemotherapy-augmented sequential chemoreactive therapy” based on the designed mitochondria-specific nanocatalyst composed of cisplatin prodrug and gallic acid-ferrous (GA-Fe(II)) nanocomposites achieves distinct catalytic cancer-therapeutic performance. The bioactive cisplatin elevates the endogenous H2O2 level through the cascaded reactions, and the GA-Fe(II) nanocomposites with sustainable Fenton catalytic activity subsequently catalyzes H2O2 into hydroxyl radicals …
