Taking together, these results manifested that intracellular GSH could be consumed to trigger PSZ for the PDT-assisted gene synergistic therapy, achieving the comprehensive cell apoptosis via the synergistic GSH-controlled siRNA release, GSH depletion and promoted SP 1 sp O SB 2 sb generation. In addition to the GSH-responsive siRNA release and fluorescence enhancement, the GSH unlocking effect on SP 1 sp O SB 2 sb production was also explored for purpose of controllable PDT by monitoring the enhanced fluorescence at 525 nm of a SP 1 sp O SB 2 sb indicator named singlet oxygen sensor green (SOSG). Moreover, the siRNA-encapsulated ZIF-67 (S-ZIF67) without PCN core realized the cellular GSH scavenging similarly, whereas the bare PCN revealed no obvious effect on GSH depletion.
