Overcoming tumor apoptosis resistance is a major challenge in enhancing cancer therapy. Pyroptosis, a lytic form of programmed cell death (PCD) involving inflammasomes, Gasdermin family proteins, and cysteine proteases, offers potential in cancer treatment. While photodynamic therapy (PDT) can induce pyroptosis by generating reactive oxygen species (ROS) through the activation of photosensitizers (PSs), many PSs lack specific subcellular targets and are limited to the first near-infrared window, potentially reducing treatment effectiveness. Therefore, developing effective, deep-penetrating, organelle-targeted pyroptosis-mediated phototherapy is essential for cancer treatment strategies. Here, we synthesized four molecules with varying benzene ring numbers in thiopyrylium structures to preliminarily explore their photodynamic properties. The near-infrared-II (NIR-II) PS Z1, with a higher benzene ring count, exhibited superior ROS generation and mitochondria-targeting abilities, and a large Stokes shift. Through nano-precipitation method, Z1 nanoparticles (NPs) also demonstrated high ROS generation (especially type-I ROS) upon 808 nm laser irradiation, leading to efficient mitochondria dysfunction and combined pyroptosis and apoptosis. Moreover, they exhibited exceptional tumor-targeting ability via NIR-II fluorescence imaging (NIR-II FI) and photoacoustic imaging (PAI). Furthermore, Z1 NPs-mediated phototherapy effectively inhibited tumor growth with minimal adverse effects. Our findings offer a promising strategy for cancer therapy, warranting further preclinical investigations in PDT.
