title: NIR light controlled release of caged hydrogen sulfide based on upconversion nanoparticles.
abstract: A NIR light induced H2S release platform based on UCNPs was constructed. Under NIR light excitation, UCNPs can emit UV light which triggers H2S release in a spatial and temporal pattern. The platform was also employed to real-time monitor the delivery process in vivo, which may provide a new way for the use of H2S-based therapeutics for a variety of diseases.
