ypoxia as one characteristic hallmark of solid tumors has

been demonstrated to involve in cancer metastasis and

progression, induce severe resistance to oxygen-dependent

therapies and hamper the transportation of theranostic

agents. To address these issues, an oxygen self-produced

sonodynamic therapy (SDT) nanoplatform involving modified

fluorocarbon (FC) chains-mediated oxygen delivery protocol

has been established to realize highly-efficient SDT against

hypoxic pancreatic cancer. In this nanoplatform, mesopores

and FC chains of FC chainsfunctionalized hollow mesoporous

organosilica nanoparticles (FHMONs) carriers can provide

sufficient storage capacity and binding sites for sonosensitizers

(IR780) andoxygen, respectively. Invitroand invivoexperiments

demonstrate the nanoplatform involving this distinctive

oxygen delivery protocol indeed breaks the hypoxia-specific

transportation barriers, supplies sufficient oxygen to hypoxic

PANC-1 cells especially upon exposure to ultrasound irradiation

and relieves hypoxia. Consequently, hypoxia-induced resistance

to SDT is inhibited and sufficient highly reactive oxygen species

(ROS) are produced to kill PANC-1 cells and shrinkage hypoxic

PANC-1 pancreatic cancer. This distinctive FC chains-mediated

oxygen delivery method provides an avenue to hypoxia

oxygenation, and holds great potential in mitigating hypoxia-

induced resistance to those oxygen-depleted therapies, e.g.,

photodynamic therapy (PDT), radiotherapy, chemotherapy, etc.
