Backgrounds Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) as an emerging reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated antitumor strategy is challenged by the rapid depletion of oxygen, as well as the hypoxic tumor microenvironment. Instead of the presently available coping strategies that amplify the endogenous O 2  level, we have proposed a biodegradable O 2  economizer to reduce expenditure for augmenting SDT efficacy in the present study. Results We successfully fabricated the O 2  economizer (HMME@HMONs-3BP-PEG, HHBP) via conjugation of respiration inhibitor 3-bromopyruvate (3BP) with hollow mesoporous organosilica nanoparticles (HMONs), followed by the loading of organic sonosensitizers (hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether; HMME) and further surface modification of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG). The engineered HHBP features controllable pH/GSH/US-sensitive drug release. The exposed 3BP could effectively inhibit cell respiration for restraining the oxygen consumption, which could alleviate the tumor hypoxia conditions. More interestingly, it could exorbitantly elevate the autophagy level, which in turn induced excessive activation of autophagy for promoting the therapeutic efficacy. As a result, when accompanied with suppressing O 2 -consumption and triggering pro-death autophagy strategy, the HHBP could achieve the remarkable antitumor activity, which was systematically validated both in vivo and in vitro assays. Conclusions This work not only provides a reduce expenditure means for enduring SDT, but also represents an inquisitive strategy for tumor treatments by inducing pro-death autophagy.
