Graphical Abstract

Abstract

The use of functional nanoparticles as peroxidase-like (POD-like) catalyst has recently become a focus of research in cancer therapy. Phthalocyanine is a macrocyclic conjugated metal ligand, which is expected to achieve a high POD-like catalytic activity, generating free radicals and inhibiting the proliferation of cancer cells. In this paper, we synthesized phthalocyanine nanocrystals with different structures through noncovalent self-assembly confined within micro-emulsion droplets, and manganese phthalocyanine (MnPc) possessing a metal–N–C active center was used as the building block. These nano-assemblies exhibit shape-dependent POD-like catalytic activities, because the emulsifier and MnPc co-mixed assembly reduced the close packing between MnPc molecules and exposed more active sites. The assembly had a water-dispersed nanostructure, which is conducive to accumulation at tumor sites through the enhanced permeability and retention effect (EPR). Because of a highly efficient microenvironmental response, the assembly showed higher catalytic activity only emerged under the acidic tumor-like microenvironment, but caused less damage to normal tissues in biomedical applications. In vivo and in vitro catalytic therapy tests showed excellent anti-tumor effects. This work explored a new way for the application of metal–organic macromolecules such as MnPc as nanozymes for catalytic tumor therapy.
