Abstract

Abstract : Cell membrane‐camouflaged phototherapeutic nanoparticles have appealing properties of immune escape, in vivo prolonged circulation time, and homologous targeting, and their phototherapeutic activities remain nearly unchanged. In article number1804105, Kanyi Pu and co‐workers highlight recent advances in the development of biomimetic cell membrane‐camouflaged nanoparticles for cancer phototherapy in living animals. Challenges and future perspectives are also discussed.
