摘要：

Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) has promising application prospects in tumor therapy. However, SDT monotherapy does not eradicate metastatic tumors. Herein, Cu-substituted ZnAl ternary layered double hydroxide nanosheets (ZCA NSs) were developed as both sonosensitizers and copper nanocarriers for synergistic SDT/cuproptosis cancer therapy. An optimized electronic structure more conducive to the sonodynamic process was obtained from ZCA NSs via the Jahn-Teller effect induced by the introduction of Cu²⁺, and the synthesized ZCA NSs regulated the intricate tumor microenvironment (TME) by depleting endogenous glutathione (GSH) to amplify oxidative stress for further enhanced SDT performance. Furthermore, cuproptosis was evoked by intracellular overload of Cu²⁺ and amplified by SDT, leading to irreversible proteotoxicity. In vitro results showed that such synergetic SDT/cuproptosis triggered the immunogenic cell death (ICD) and promoted the maturation of dendritic cells (DCs). Furthermore, the as-synthesized ZCA NSs-mediated SDT/cuproptosis thoroughly eradicated the in vivo solid tumors and simultaneously elicited antitumor immunity to suppress lung and liver metastasis. Overall, this work established a nanoplatform for synergistic SDT/cuproptosis with satisfactory antitumor immunity.
