The successful treatment of infected wounds requires strategies with effective antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and healing-promoting properties. Accordingly, the use of Cu2+ and tetracycline (TC), which can promote angiogenesis, re-epithelialization, and collagen deposition, also antibacterial activity, at the wound site, has shown application prospects in promoting infected wound repair. However, realizing controllable release to prolong action time and avoid potential toxicities is critical. Moreover, near-infrared light (NIR)-activated mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticles (MPDA NPs) reportedly exert anti-inflammatory effects by eliminating the reactive oxygen species generated during inflammatory responses. In this study, we assess whether Cu2+ and TC loaded in MPDA NPs can accelerate infected wound healing in mice. In particular, Cu2+ is chelated and immobilized on the surface of MPDA NPs, while a thermosensitive phase-change material (PCM; melting point: 39–40 °C), combined with antibiotics, was loaded into the MPDA NPs as a gatekeeper (PPMD@Cu/TC). Results show that PPMD@Cu/TC exhibits significant great photothermal properties with NIR irradiation, which induces the release of Cu2+, while inducing PCM melting and, subsequent, TC release. In combination with anti-inflammatory therapy, NIR-triggered Cu2+ and TC release enables the nanocomposite to eradicate bacterial wound infections and accelerate healing. Importantly, negligible damage to primary organs and satisfactory biocompatibility were observed in the murine model. Collectively, these findings highlight the therapeutic potential of this MPDA-based platform for controlling bacterial infection and accelerating wound healing.
