Microfluidic Synthesis of CuH Nanoparticles for Antitumor Therapy through Hydrogen-Enhanced Apoptosis and Cuproptosis

Cuproptosis has drawn enormous attention in antitumor material fields; however, the responsive activation of cuproptosis against tumors using nanomaterials with high atom utilization is still challenging. Herein, a copper-based nanoplatform consisting of acid-degradable copper hydride (CuH) nanoparticles was developed via a microfluidic synthesis. After coating with tumor-targeting hyaluronic acid (HA), the nanoplatform denoted as HA-CuH-PVP (HCP) shows conspicuous damage toward tumor cells by generating Cu
