The HOFs self-assemble into highly ordered porous structures through hydrogen bonding and π-π stacking interactions, which undergo controlled dissociation upon FUS stimulation, enabling on-demand drug release (Figure 1A).

However, this passive approach often results in undesirable systemic distribution, limiting the therapeutic efficacy and increasing the off-target risk [<span>2</span>]. Consequently, stimuli-responsive DDS have been developed, including light-triggered and pH-responsive systems, aimed at enhancing drug targeting and controlling release kinetics. Despite these advancements, light-based activation is restricted by the penetration depth of light in biological tissues, which impedes its ability to reach deep-seated lesions. Implantable optical fibers can transmit light signals, but their invasive nature introduces the risk of tissue damage. Additionally, pH-responsive DDS are sensitive to the biochemical microenvironment of diseased tissues, and interpatient variability often leads to inconsistent therapeutic results, preventing clinical translation [<span>3</span>].
