Molecularly sculpted NIR-II nano-igniter converts local photothermal heat into systemic antitumor vaccination
T cells (≈ 70% activation), and suppression of Tregs (≈ 3%). No systemic toxicity or off-target pathology is observed. This study establishes a chemically tunable, metal-free PTA platform that synergizes thermal ablation with systemic anti-tumor immunity, providing a versatile scaffold for next-generation precision immuno-photothermal medicine.
