Popis: Iron–manganese layered double hydroxide nanosheets were developed as an effective photothermal nanocarrier for loading a photosensitizer. The catalase-like activity enables the nanosheets to decompose H2O2 into O2, overcoming tumor hypoxia and enhancing O2-dependent photodynamic therapy (PDT). The combination of PDT and photothermal therapy (PTT) can almost completely eliminate tumor tissues.
