Advances in light-responsive nanoenzymes for tumor therapy

Currently, traditional tumor treatments have their own damaging and side effects, so new treatment methods have attracted much attention. Among them, "phototherapy", as an emerging treatment modality, has attracted a lot of attention because of its less traumatic and more targeted characteristics. This paper reviews the research progress of nanoenzymes in tumor phototherapy. Based on the introduction of photothermal therapy and photodynamic therapy, the performance of traditional phototherapy nanomaterials is discussed, and the challenges that still exist in current tumor phototherapy are pointed out. Subsequently, the current research status of nanoenzymes in tumor photothermal therapy, photodynamic therapy, and the combination of the two is further introduced, demonstrating their potential as an important tool for future tumor therapy. The introduction of nanoenzymes is expected to improve the shortcomings of traditional phototherapy and achieve better therapeutic effects. It is believed that there will be more in-depth research and application in this field in the future, which will bring new hope for tumor treatment.
