Breaking Osteoclast‐Acid Vicious Cycle to Rescue Osteoporosis via an Acid Responsive Organic Framework‐Based Neutralizing and Gene Editing Platform

In the osteoporotic microenvironment, the acidic microenvironment generated by excessive osteoclasts not only causes irreversible bone mineral dissolution, but also promotes reactive oxygen species (ROS) production to induce osteoblast senescence and excessive receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL) production, which help to generate more osteoclasts. Hence, targeting the acidic microenvironment and RANKL production may break this vicious cycle to rescue osteoporosis. To achieve this, an acid-responsive and neutralizing system with high in vivo gene editing capacity is developed by loading sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO
