Phase Engineered Cux S-Ag2 S with Photothermoelectric Activity for Enhanced Multienzyme Activity and Dynamic Therapy.
Advanced materials (Deerfield Beach, Fla.)(2024)
摘要
The insufficient exposure sites and active site competition of multienzyme are the two main factors to hinder its therapeutic effect. Here, a phase-junction nanomaterial (amorphous-crystalline Cux S-Ag2 S) is designed and prepared through a simple room temperature ion-exchange process. A small amount of Ag+ is added into Cu7 S4 nanocrystals, which transforms Cu7 S4 into amorphous phased Cux S and produces crystalline Ag2 S simultaneously. In this structure, the overhanging bonds on the amorphous Cux S surface provide abundant active sites for optimizing the therapeutic activity. Meanwhile, the amorphous state enhances the photothermal effect through non-radiative relaxation, and due to its low thermal resistance, phase-junction Cux S-Ag2 S forms a significant temperature gradient to unlock the optimized thermo-electrodynamic therapy. Furthermore, benefiting from the high asymmetry of the amorphous state, the material forms a spin-polarized state that can effectively inhibit electron-hole recombination. In this way, the thermoelectric effect can facilitate the enzyme-catalyzed cycle by providing electrons and holes, enabling an enhanced coupling of thermoelectric therapy with multienzyme activity, which induces excellent anti-tumor performance. More importantly, the catalytic process simulated by density-functional theory proves that Ag+ alleviates the burden on the Cu sites through favorable adsorption of O2 and prevents active site competition.
