Abstract
Abstract Thrombus causes a serious condition characterized by the formation of blood clots in blood vessels or heart, potentially leading to life‐threatening emergencies. Photothermal therapy (PTT) serves as a treatment for thrombosis that provides noninvasive thrombus dissolution and fewer bleeding side effects. However, the high temperatures generated by PTT can exacerbate vascular inflammation and promote thrombus recurrence. In this study, a photothermal hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) nanogenerator (PSA@ADT‐OH) is constructed using a perylene‐cored photothermal agent (PSA) coassembled with a H 2 S donor ADT‐OH. The system PSA@ADT‐OH demonstrates outstanding targeting and accumulation efficiency against blood flow shear forces. It also provides sustained H 2 S release at thrombus sites, contributing to antiplatelet aggregation, reactive oxygen species clearance, and vascular healing. This approach opens up new possibilities for advanced thrombus treatment.
