A cascaded copper-based nanocatalyst by modulating glutathione and cyclooxygenase-2 for hepatocellular carcinoma therapy

, resulting in cascade-amplified ferroptosis mediated HCC therapy. Furthermore, the down-regulation of COX-2 can induce PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy to further act synergistically with Sol-mediated chemotherapy. Therefore, this HKUST-1 nanocatalyst provides a novel strategy to regulate GSH and COX-2 levels for amplified chemo/chemodynamic and ferroptosis-mediated HCC therapy.
