pH-Sensitive Carbon Dots for Enhancing Photomediated Antitumor Immunity

Recent cancer immunotherapy has attracted much attention due to high specificity and recurrence prevention of tumor. Nevertheless, its therapeutic effects are still challenging in solid cancer. To establish superior antitumor immunity, chlorin e6 (Ce6)-loaded pH sensitive carbon dots were investigated (Ce6@IDCDs). At tumoral pH 6.5, Ce6 was released four times compared with the release at physiological pH 7.4 due to an imbalance between...
