The present work sheds light on a generally overlooked issue in the emerging field of bio-orthogonal catalysis within tumour microenvironments (TMEs): interplay between homogeneous and heterogeneous catalytic processes. In most cases, previous works dealing with nanoparticle-based TME focus effects obtained (
