medicine use of endogenous NQO1 enzyme for nanocarrier-based drug delivery in tumors. The rotaxane nanovalve system is composed of a linear stalk anchoring on the surface of mesoporous silica nanoparticles, an alpha-cyclodextrin ring that encircles it and locks the payload cargo molecules in the mesopores, and a benzoquinone stopper incorporated at the end of the stalk. The gate opening and controlled release of the cargo are triggered by cleavage of the benzoquinone stopper using an endogenous NQO1 enzyme Homo sapiens
