摘要

Carbon dots (CDs) are nearly zero-dimensional fluorescent carbon nanomaterials, featuring excellent fluorescence (FL) properties, tunable optical characteristics, and good biocompatibility. These advantages make them uniquely advantageous in non-invasive tumor treatment. This review first introduces the principles of photodynamic therapy (PDT), photothermal therapy (PTT), sonodynamic therapy (SDT), and chemodynamic therapy (CDT). Secondly, it systematically elaborates on the application progress of PDT, PTT, SDT, and CDT in tumor treatment, among which the application of PDT in anti-tumor and antibacterial aspects is classified and elaborated. The unique feature of this review lies in its systematic classification of various treatment strategies, and it particularly emphasizes the synergistic effects of carbon dots in different therapies, highlighting the advantages of the multi-functional integrated platform in overcoming the limitations of single therapies.
