Peptide-tuned self-assembly of functional components offers astrategy towardsimproved properties and unique functions of materials,b ut the requirement of many different functions and al acko fu nderstanding of complex structures present ah igh barrier for applications.H erein, we report ap hotosensitive drug delivery system for photodynamic therapy( PDT) by as imple dipeptide-or amphiphilic aminoacid-tuned self-assembly of photosensitizers (PSs). The assembled nanodrugs exhibit multiple favorable therapeutic features, including tunable size,high loading efficiency,and on-demand drug release responding to pH, surfactant, and enzyme stimuli, as well as preferable cellular uptake and biodistribution. These features result in greatly enhanced PDT efficacy in vitro and in vivo,l eading to almost complete tumor eradication in mice receiving as ingle drug dose and as ingle exposure to light.
