{Abstract}: Lactic acid (LA) accumulation in the tumor microenvironment poses notable challenges to effective tumor immunotherapy. Here, an intelligent tumor treatment microrobot based on the unique physiological structure and metabolic characteristics of Veillonella atypica (VA) is proposed by loading Staphylococcus aureus cell membrane-coating BaTiO3 nanocubes (SAM@BTO) on the surface of VA cells (VA-SAM@BTO) via click chemical reaction. Following oral administration, VA-SAM@BTO accurately targeted orthotopic colorectal cancer through inflammatory targeting of SAM and hypoxic targeting of VA. Under in vitro ultrasonic stimulation, BTO catalyzed two reduction reactions (O2 → •O2- and CO2 → CO) and three oxidation reactions (H2O → •OH, GSH → GSSG, and LA → PA) simultaneously, effectively inducing immunogenic death of tumor cells. BTO catalyzed the oxidative coupling of VA cells metabolized LA, effectively disrupting the immunosuppressive microenvironment, improving dendritic cell maturation and macrophage M1 polarization, and increasing effector T cell proportions while decreasing regulatory T cell numbers, which facilitates synergetic catalysis and immunotherapy.
