Abstract

DNAzymes hold promise for gene‐silencing therapy, but the lack of sufficient cofactors in the cell cytoplasm, poor membrane permeability, and poor biostability have limited the use of DNAzymes in therapeutics. We report a DNAzyme–MnO 2 nanosystem for gene‐silencing therapy. MnO 2 nanosheets adsorb chlorin e6‐labelled DNAzymes (Ce6), protect them from enzymatic digestion, and efficiently deliver them into cells. The nanosystem can also inhibit 1 O 2 generation by Ce6 in the circulatory system. In the presence of intracellular glutathione (GSH), MnO 2 is reduced to Mn 2+ ions, which serve as cofactors of 10–23 DNAzyme for gene silencing. The release of Ce6 generates 1 O 2 for more efficient photodynamic therapy. The Mn 2+ ions also enhance magnetic resonance contrast, providing GSH‐activated magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of tumor cells. The integration of fluorescence recovery and MRI activation provides fluorescence/MRI bimodality for monitoring the delivery of DNAzymes.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
