outcomes within the hypoxic region becomes unfeasible due to the combination of reduced oxygen levels and increased distance from the nearest blood capillary. This situation represents an unfavorable prognostic and predictive factor, as it contributes to various aspects such as chemoresistance, radioresistance, angiogenesis, vasculo­genesis, invasiveness, metastasis, resistance to cell death, altered metabolism, and genomic instability. In all challenging circumstances, different reductase enzymes are upregulated during hypoxia, effectively reducing aromatic azo (NN), nitro (NO2), and quinone moieties. Based on this inherent conversion, several theranos­tics have been created, wherein the cleavage of the azo bond (NN) or reduction of the nitro group (NO2) to amine (NH2) facilitates the self-immolative discharge of active therapeutic components into the low-oxygen area of the solid tumor. Recent advancements in hypoxia-responsive theranostics have been consolidated in Table
While diverse strategic theranostics have been documented, none have yet pro
­gressed to the clinical trial stage. Further efforts are required to develop hypoxia-sen­sitive theranostics that may enhance clinical benefits and address existing healthcare challenges.
Light-activated theranostics
.
.
To date, we have discussed numerous endogenous stimuli-responsive theranostics
that actively deliver chemotherapeutic agents to various cell types/cancers based on the presence of specific stimulants. It is important to note that these stimulants are also present in normal cells but in relatively lower quantities, thus ensuring that the therapeutic agents are selectively released solely in the tumor region cannot be guaranteed. External stimulants, such as light, have been utilized to trigger the release of therapeutics, a process commonly referred to as “photo caging,” where drugs are shielded or “caged.” UV or laser irradiation facilitates the controlled release of thera­peutics in a spatially and temporally precise manner. Some critical examples of the photo trigger theranostic in a consulate form are provided in Table
The utilization of photo-triggered activation of anticancer drugs represents a

unique and innovative strategy. By employing this approach, it becomes possible to activate the therapeutic agent with a higher degree of precision specifically at the intended target tumor site.

. Recent cutting-edge strategies in cancer theranostics
The forefront of medical advancement includes the innovative idea of self­immolative theranostics, in which the therapeutic substance undergoes a controlled chemical reaction, causing its self-degradation under certain circumstances. This characteristic is frequently harnessed to prompt the release of the therapeutic pay­load precisely at the disease site, thereby improving its effectiveness and reducing unintended effects elsewhere. In the previously mentioned approaches, the primary focus is on delivering chemotherapeutic agents to cancer cells or tumors. However, these strategies have not yet been assessed for their effectiveness against multidrug­resistant cancers/metastasis cancer. It’s crucial to note that multidrug-resistant cancer remains one of the most lethal forms of cancer, with the highest mortality rates. With a focus on addressing multidrug-resistant cancer, Kim et al. strategically engineered prodrug  (depicted in Figure ), which combines a protein phos­phatase 2A (PP2A) inhibitor with a DNA damage chemotherapeutic agent linked via a GSH-responsive labile linker [72]. In this context, the protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) inhibitor, demethyl cantharidin (DMC), inhibits PP2A activity. This inhibi­tion leads to elevated MDM2 expression, subsequently triggering the reduction of p53-p21 mediated G1/S checkpoint arrest, thereby diminishing the DNA repair pathway. Conversely, 5-fluorouracil inhibits the growth of DNA in newly born cells. It disrupts DNA synthesis and, to a lesser extent, hinders RNA formation by integrating itself into RNA molecules, resulting in the generation of faulty RNA. Additionally, fluorouracil hampers uracil riboside phosphorylase activity, impeding preexist­ing uracil’s utilization in RNA synthesis. The strategic prodrug  is preferentially

localized in the mitochondria, where triphenyl phosphonium cation drives to localize

in the mitochondria. After cellular glutathione cleaves the vulnerable –S–S– bond, DMC and 5-fluorouracil are activated, ultimately disrupting the usual mitochon­drial functions in cancer cells. Prodrug  exhibited greater anticancer efficacy in PP2A over-expressed breast cancer cell line (4T1) and colon cancer cells HCT116 compared to PP2A unexpressed cancer cell line. This heightened anticancer effect was accompanied by increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), result­ing in DNA damage. Subsequently, mitochondrial swelling occurred, leading to the rupture of the mitochondrial outer membrane and the release of the pro-apoptotic protein cytochrome C. In the in vivo mouse model with HCT 116-inoculated mice, the combination of drugs in prodrug  significantly reduced tumor volume and size by three times more compared to using DMC or 5-fluorouracil alone. This exemplifies the effectiveness of combination therapy in combatting cancer.
By reprogramming mitochondrial metabolism, the cancer esterase-activated pro­drug  overcomes multidrug resistance activity, leading to delayed prodrug activa­tion and enabling evasion of drug efflux mechanisms [73]. After esterase hydrolysis, releasing of dichloroacetate (DCA) and doxorubicin leads to p21Waf1 upregulation, reduction of PDH phosphorylation, and cleavage of caspase-3, and PARP-1 allows to show high anticancer activity in multidrug resistance MCF-7. It effectively suppressed tumor growth in the MCF/Dox xenograft mice model, with no indication of hepato­toxicity in the treated animals.
An additional theranostic prodrug, labeled as  [74], is triggered by various cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and has demonstrated its effectiveness in combating metastatic cancer. Typically, cancer cells exhibit heightened levels of multiple ROS, but a single ROS may not be adequate to activate the anticancer drug within the theranostic platform. Therefore, a carbamate-linked theranostic labeled as  was developed, incorporating biotin-PEGylation. Following 15days of injecting metastatic cervical cancer cell-bearing mice with doses dependent on the treatment, a remarkable inhibition of tumor growth (99%) was observed, coupled with the deple­tion of HIF-1α, leading to a survival period of over 45days for the treated mice.
Another formidable aspect is tumor recurrence, wherein 90% of anticancer medications fall short of providing the anticipated therapeutic effectiveness, result­ing in increased mortality rates [75]. Ironically, recurrence is frequently triggered by chemotherapy as a result of the accumulation of nuclear genomic mutations throughout the treatment regimen. Antineoplastic agents that induce nuclear-DNA damage, such as alkylating agents, are prevalent chemical mutagens and have been associated with tumor recurrence. To address this ongoing challenge in cancer treat­ment, ciprofloxacin-conjugated  (MT-CFX) (
Figure ) was employed to improve mitochondrial targeting [76]. The payload release within the mitochondria triggers oxidative damage to proteins, mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), and lipids. A significant preference for damaging mtDNA over nuclear DNA (nDNA) was observed in cancer cells. It showed anticancer activity in various cancer cells namely, MDA-MB-231(IC50:
31.31μM), SW620 (IC50: 31.82μM), DU145 (IC50: 55.51μM), A549 (IC50: 23.77μM), PC3 (IC
: 86.45μM) compared to the normal cells, BJ (IC50: 631.82μM), MCF10A
50
(IC50: ≥1000μM). The fluorophore-linked variant of , known as Bo-Mt-CFX, admin­istered via intravenous injection (0.5mmol/kg) in an MDA-MB-231 xenograft mouse model, resulted in more than a threefold reduction in both the tumor volume and size.
Hypoxia poses another challenge in overcoming multidrug resistance in tumors. Kim et al. introduced theranostic  (Figure ) in conjunction with photodynamic therapy and chemotherapy to address this challenge [77]. The theranostic construct

underwent reduction within the hypoxic tumor microenvironment, resulting in the liberation of a near-infrared-emissive fluorophore and an active chemotherapeutic drug. Consequently, during photodynamic therapy (PDT), theranostic  aided in eliminating normoxic tumor cells located in the superficial layer of the tumor. Additionally, the activatable chemotherapy facilitated the eradication of hypoxic tumor cells situated in the core of the tumors, thereby enhancing treatment efficacy for solid tumors in mice. This double-aided approach introduces a new dimension in cancer therapy, especially multidrug resistance cancer.
In this discussion, there is a notable focus on addressing multidrug resistance in cancer therapy through diverse and sophisticated strategic approaches. These meth­ods include the activation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the incorporation of multidrug components. This approach integrates both the therapeutic and diagnostic components, aiming to overcome resistance mechanisms exhibited by cancer cells against multiple drugs. Through a combination of various therapeutic modalities and diagnostic techniques, this approach seeks to enhance treatment efficacy while providing insights into the resistance mechanisms at play, thereby enabling personal­ized and more effective cancer therapy.
. Conclusions and prospective outlook
In conclusion, the development and exploration of stimuli-responsive theranostics (GSH, H2O2, H2S, pH, β-galactosidase, hypoxia) have brought significant advance­ments to the field of cancer treatment and diagnostic capabilities. The numerous strategies and methodologies discussed herein reflect the tremendous potential of these emerging technologies. As researchers continue to delve into the intricacies of various stimuli-responsive platforms, there remains a wealth of opportunities and potential for further exploration and development in this domain. Currently, opti­cally modulated theranostics remain primarily of academic interest. Advancing these to clinical trial phases requires generating additional data through high-throughput assays, comprehensively exploring mechanisms, and collecting pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic information.
Looking ahead, the prospective outlook for stimuli-responsive theranostics is exceedingly promising. Continued research and development in this area hold the key to addressing the existing limitations and challenges associated with traditional cancer treatment modalities. By leveraging the dynamic nature of these responsive systems, it is conceivable that refined and highly targeted therapeutic interventions can be achieved, thereby maximizing efficacy while minimizing off-target effects and potential toxicity. With a comprehensive understanding of the underlying mecha­nisms and a focused effort toward the development of novel and optimized therapeu­tic strategies, stimuli-responsive theranostics are poised to play a pivotal role in the future of personalized and precision medicine.
