Corresponding strategies were proposed to solve a series of problems, such as difficult accumulation of anticancer drugs in tumor sites, non-specific killing of anticancer drugs, reduced efficacy of anticancer drugs in tumor microenvironment, and non-specific activation of photosensitizers given throughout the body, so as to realize advanced anti-tumor therapy with high efficacy and low toxic side effects. Related results were published as first author (including tie for first place) in Angew.chem.in.ed., ACS Nano, Adv.Funct. Mater. And other internationally renowned journals.
