Figure Legend Snippet: Schematic illustration of the design and mechanism of MD1a NP for synergistic cancer immunotherapy. (A) The HOCl-responsive methylene blue (MB)–doxorubicin (DOX) dimer prodrug co-assembles with the stimulator of interferon genes (STING) agonist 1a to form a tumor-activatable nanoplatform (MD1a NP). HOCl stimulation activates and triggers the release of MB and DOX, which in turn promotes nanoparticle disassembly and facilitates the subsequent liberation of 1a. (B) Following intravenous administration, elevated intratumoral HOCl triggers the activation and the subsequent release of MB and DOX, enabling synergistic photochemotherapy under near-infrared (NIR) laser irradiation. This process induces robust immunogenic cell death (ICD) while minimizing systemic off-target effects. Concurrently, HOCl-triggered nanoparticle disassembly accelerates 1a release, activating the STING pathway and establishing an immune-promoting tumor microenvironment (TME). In orthotopic 4T1 breast cancer mouse models, MD1a NP-mediated in situ tumor vaccination (ISTV) elicited strong antitumor immunity, effectively inhibiting both primary and distant tumor growth, preventing lung metastasis, and prolonging overall survival.
