- Abstract
Light-mediated nanotherapeutics have recently emerged as promising strategies to precisely control the activation of therapeutic reagents and imaging probe both in vitro and in vivo, largely ascribed to their unique properties, including minimally invasive capabilities and high spatiotemporal resolution. Nanoscale metal–organic frameworks (NMOFs), a new family of hybrid materials consisting of metal attachment sites and bridging ligands, have been explored as a new platform for enhanced cancer diagnosis and therapy due to their tunable size, modifiable surface, good biocompatibility, high agent loading and, most significantly, their ability to be preferentially deposited in tumors through enhanced permeability and retention (EPR). Especially the light-driven NMOF-based therapeutic platform, which not only allow for increased laser penetration depth and enhanced targeting, but also enable imaging-guided or combined treatments. This review provides up-to-date developments of NMOF-based therapeutic platforms for cancer treatment with emphasis on light-triggered therapeutic strategies and introduces their advances in cancer diagnosis and therapy in recent years.
