Summary: Cu2-xS nanostructures have been extensively explored as promising agents for chemodynamic therapy (CDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT) due to their efficient Cu(I)-initiated Fenton-like catalytic activity and photothermal conversion property. However, the supply of Cu(I) in the long-term is still limited, and the inherent photothermal conversion efficiency is relatively low. In this study, a self-enhanced synergistic PTT/CDT nanoplatform (Cu1.94S@MPN) was developed by coating Cu1.94S nanoparticles with Fe(III)/tannic acid-based metal-polyphenol networks (MPN). When exposed to the acidic bacterial infection microenvironment, Cu1.94S@MPN can be decomposed to release Cu(II), Fe(III) ions, and tannic acid, enabling Cu(I)/Fe(II)-rich CDT through accelerated Fenton/Fenton-like reactions. Additionally, Cu1.94S@MPN exhibits excellent photothermal antibacterial and photothermal-enhanced CDT properties, making it a potential candidate for future anti-infective therapy.
