Chemodynamic therapy (CDT), as a new method for oncotherapy, can convert less reactive hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) into highly toxic hydroxyl radicals (˙OH) in the tumor microenvironment (TME) to kill tumor cells and inhibit tumor growth. However, the TME usually presents a low content of endogenous H₂O₂ and weak acidity, which weakens the therapeutic effect of CDT to a certain extent. Here, we developed a multifunctional nanoplatform based on Cu-doped mesoporous carbon nanospheres loaded with free radical generator 2′-azobis[2-(2-imidazolin-2-yl)propane]-dihydrochloride (AIPH) and polyacrylic acid (Cu-MNCS-AIPH@PAA). Cu-MNCS-AIPH@PAA exhibited high photothermal conversion efficiency, and could not only act as a good photothermal agent for photothermal therapy (PTT) but also trigger AIPH to produce alkyl radicals. In response to the specificity of the TME, Cu-MNCS-AIPH@PAA could generate ˙OH through a Fenton-like reaction for CDT and enhance the efficacy of CDT by a photothermal effect. The excellent anticancer efficiency by the synergistic effect of CDT, PTT and free radicals, high biocompatibility and low adverse effects of Cu-MNCS-AIPH@PAA make it an ideal nanoplatform for tumor therapy.
