Colon cancer exosome-derived biomimetic nanoplatform for curcumin-mediated sonodynamic therapy and calcium overload

Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) possesses unique properties such as being minimally invasive, exhibiting low toxicity, as well as ability to impart the treatment in the deep tissues, and hence has been extensively used. However, inherent defects such as low water-soluble sonosensitizers can limit the clinical application of SDT, and tumor microenvironment (TME) can further compromise the effect of a single SDT. To overcome these challenges, we have designed a bionic nano-system (ECaC) by coating mesoporous calcium carbonate nanoparticles (CaCO
