GSH-activated MRI-guided enhanced photodynamic- and chemo-combination therapy with a MnO2-coated porphyrin metal organic framework

Chem Commun (Camb). 2019 May 28;55(44):6241-6244. doi: 10.1039/c9cc01957j.

Abstract

Glutathione (GSH) in tumors consumes 1O2 and seriously inhibits the PDT effect. MnO2-coated porphyrin metal-organic frameworks are developed to realize the oxidation of GSH by MnO2 for enhanced PDT, activated MR imaging, and controllable release of DOX as magnetic resonance imaging guided drug-PDT dual-therapy.
