Theranostic agents that can be sensitively and specifically activated by the tumor microenvironment (TME) have recently attracted considerable attention. In this study, TME-activatable 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB)-copper peroxide (CuO2)@poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA)@red blood cell mem...
