Abstrakt: The excessive and prolonged use of antibiotics contributes to the emergence of drug‐resistant S. aureus strains and potential dysbacteriosis‐related diseases, necessitating the exploration of alternative therapeutic approaches. Herein, we present a light‐activated nanocatalyst for synthesizing in situ antimicrobials through photoredox‐catalytic click reaction, achieving precise, site‐directed elimination of S. aureus skin infections. Methylene blue (MB), a commercially available photosensitizer, was encapsulated within the CuII‐based metal–organic framework, MOF‐199, and further enveloped with Pluronic F‐127 to create the light‐responsive nanocatalyst MB@PMOF. Upon exposure to red light, MB participates in a photoredox‐catalytic cycle, driven by the 1,3,5‐benzenetricarboxylic carboxylate salts (BTC−) ligand presented in the structure of MOF‐199. This light‐activated MB then catalyzes the reduction of CuII to CuI through a single‐electron transfer (SET) process, efficiently initiating the click reaction to form active antimicrobial agents under physiological conditions. Both in vitro and in vivo results demonstrated the effectiveness of MB@PMOF‐catalyzed drug synthesis in inhibiting S. aureus, including their methicillin‐resistant strains, thereby accelerating skin healing in severe bacterial infections. This study introduces a novel design paradigm for controlled, on‐site drug synthesis, offering a promising alternative to realize precise treatment of bacterial infections without undesirable side effects.
