This study reports the development of iron-chelated semiconducting polycomplex nanoparticles (SPFeN) for photoacoustic (PA) imaging-guided photothermal ferrotherapy of cancer. The hybrid polymeric nanoagent comprises a ferroptosis initiator (Fe3+ ) and an amphiphilic semiconducting polycomplex (SPC...
