Nanodynamic therapy (NDT) based on reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation has been envisioned as a distinct modality for efficient cancer treatment. However, insufficient ROS generation and partial ROS consumption frequently limit the theraputic effect and outcome of NDT owing to the low oxygen (O₂) tension and high glutathione (GSH) level in tumor microenvironment (TME). To circumvent these critical issues, we herein proposed and engineered the biodegradable GSH-depletion Mn(III)-riched manganese oxide nanospikes (MnOₓ NSs) with the photosynthetic bacterial cyanobacteria (Cyan) as a high-efficient and synergistic platform to reshape TME by simultaneously increasing oxygen content and decreasing GSH level. Specifically, under the trigger of acidity, MnOₓ NSs reacted with photosynthetic oxygen can generate toxic singlet oxygen (¹O₂). Moreover, MnOₓ NSs significantly reduced intracellular GSH, resulting in decreased GPX4 activity, which induced tumor cell non-apoptotic ferroptosis. Consequently, this combined strategy based on coadministration with Cyan and MnOₓ NSs demonstrated the superior antitumor efficacy via amplification of oxidative stress in 4T1 tumor-bearing mice for the synergetic oxygen-augmented nanodynamic/ferroptosis therapy. This work highlights a facile synergistic micro-/nano-system with the specific capability of reshaping TME to augment the sensitivity and therapeutic efficacy of NDT in solid hypoxic tumor therapy.
