In the current study, we successfully fabricated a delivery complex, reduced graphene oxide nanosheet loading with tetrahedral framework nucleic acids (tFNAs-rGO) through self-assembly.

Therefore, strategies that preferentially activate antitumor inflammatory signaling rather than tumor-promoting signaling need to be developed. Herein, we constructed a STING agonist-loaded CuS/MnO<sub>2</sub> bimetallic nanosystem, termed diAMP-BCM. BCM with an optimized Cu/Mn ratio efficiently promoted the activation of proinflammatory signaling, and in combination with the STING agonist diAMP, diAMP-BCM controllably activated tumoricidal inflammatory signaling in APCs.

MC38 and CT26 CRC models were established to evaluate the in vivo antitumor effects of diAMP-BCM. Combined with ICB therapy, diAMP-BCM enables the rebuilding of tumor milieus with efficient tumor growth inhibition and alleviation of T-cell exhaustion, particularly in distal tumors, in sporadic colorectal cancer therapy.
