Popis: Osteoporosis is a kind of global chronic bone disease characterized by progressive loss of bone mass and bone quality reduction, leading to a largely increased risk of bone fragility. In clinics, the current treatment of osteoporosis relies on the inhibition of bone damage by osteoclasts but ignores the function of immune cells in the progress of osteoporosis, leading to much compromised therapeutic efficacy. In this work, a highly effective osteoporosis-immunotherapeutic modality is established for the treatment of osteoporosis based on acid neutralization in synergy with immune microenvironment regulation by a specially designed nanocatalytic medicine, calcein functionalized calcium-aluminum-layered double hydroxide (CALC) nanosheets. Briefly, the mildly alkaline CALC nanosheets could neutralize the acidic microenvironment of osteoporosis accompanying the acidity-responsive LDH degradation. Subsequently, calcium phosphate nanoparticles (CAPs) are generated by the reaction between the released Ca
