Abstract

A transformable upconversion MOF comprising a UCNP core and an azobenzene-based MOF shell is designed for NIR light-modulated chemotherapy. The dual Förster resonance energy transfers (FRETs) involved in this delivery system trigger the transformation of the MOF for drug release and prodrug activation, thus significantly inhibiting the tumor growth and metastasis.
