Spatially Selective Self-Amplified Imaging of Chemotherapy-Induced Cancer Senescence via Reversal of Impaired Ferritinophagy

Real-time monitoring of chemotherapy-induced senescence (CIS) in cancer remains a challenging task that would lead to new insights into the adaptive mechanisms of cancer therapy and provide guidance for cancer management. Here, we designed a tailor-made nanoprobe capable of imaging CIS in a sequential activation and self-amplified manner by reversing senescence-related impaired ferritinophagy. It contains an amphipathic polymer as a spatially responsive vehicle, a Fe
