Manganese-iron layered double hydroxide: a theranostic nanoplatform with pH-responsive MRI contrast enhancement and drug release

MRI contrast of the tumor area. In addition, the layered structure enables MnFe-LDH to effectively deliver chemotherapeutic drugs in a pH-controlled manner, and therefore it can simultaneously inhibit the growth of solid tumors. We believe that this novel MnFe-LDH with pH-responsive property holds great promise in cancer theranostic applications.
