Here, we report the application of unique peroxidase-mimicking plasmonic photo-nanozymes coupling tumor-microenvironment-responsive reactive oxygen species generation with photothermal effect for effective combinatorial therapy. The well-defined anisotropic photo-nanozyme is synthesized by selectively depositing Pd nanoparticles on the tips of gold nanobypyramids. Intrinsic peroxidase-like properties with 1.5-fold-activity enhancement under photoexcitation are ascribed to a Pd-induced hot electrons/holes separation with efficient H2O2 decomposition. The LSPR-induced photocatalytic/photothermal combinatorial effects are remarkably enhanced upon H2O2 addition, critically suppressing the cell survival rate under near-infrared light. An effective decomposition of cell-signaling H2O2 additionally reveals prominent expression hindrance of vascular endothelial growth factor and hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha. Our seminal findings uncover an interrelation between LSPR-induced phenomena and biomimetic fingerprints, valuable to overcome the shortcomings of conventional photodynamic therapy.
