CuS-OMVs for combinational cancer therapy involving PTT and immunotherapy. (a) Schematic representation of the preparation of CuS-OMVs. (b) Schematic representation of PTT and antitumour immunity generated by CuS-OMVs following NIR–II light exposure. CuS-OMVs target tumours effectively and cause cytotoxicity in tumour cells due to a combination of ICD, DC maturation and CD8+ T-cell activation in response to NIR-II light exposure. CuS-OMVs act as immune adjuvants that support DC maturation and repolarize TAMs from M2 to M1 phenotype to inhibit tumour growth and metastasis [146].
