In article number 2000819, Min Zhou and co‐workers present Spirulina platensis –based natural carriers to construct a DOX‐loaded system for targeted delivery and fluorescence imaging‐guided chemotherapy on lung metastasis of breast cancer. The carriers enable the as prepared biosystem to passively target the lungs, and result in a significantly enhanced therapeutic efficacy on lung metastasis of 4T1 breast cancer.
