PdRu bimetallic nanoalloys with improved photothermal effect for amplified ROS-mediated tumor therapy.

Front Bioeng Biotechnol

January 2025

Department of Experimental Research and Guangxi Cancer Molecular Medicine Engineering Research Center and Guangxi Key Laboratory of Basic and Translational Research for Colorectal Cancer, Guangxi Medical University Cancer Hospital, Nanning, China.

An emerging strategy in cancer therapy involves inducing reactive oxygen species (ROS), specifically within tumors using nanozymes. However, existing nanozymes suffer from limitations such as low reactivity, poor biocompatibility, and limited targeting capabilities, hindering their therapeutic efficacy. In response, the PdRu@PEI bimetallic nanoalloys were constructed with well-catalytic activities and effective separation of charges, which can catalyze hydrogen peroxide (HO) to toxic hydroxyl radical (·OH) under near-infrared laser stimulation.
