ABSTRACT Pyroptosis inhibition via Fe single‐atom nanozymes is promising for inflammation therapy, but the common Fe‐N 4 configuration restricts oxygen intermediate desorption and lacks cooperative sites, thus limiting catalytic performance. To overcome this, we develop a FeMn dual‐atom nanozyme supported on oxygen‐nitrogen‐doped bamboo‐like carbon nanotubes (FeMn DA /BCNT). Through the precise alignment of Fe and Mn 3 dz 2 orbital energy levels by the electron‐delocalized BCNT support in the FeMn‐N/O active center, thereby lowering the dissociation energy barrier for * O 2 or * H 2 O molecules, promoting O─O bond cleavage to bypass toxic ─OOH species, and thus accelerating the enzyme‐like kinetics. Combined with a hierarchical porous bamboo‐like structure of the BCNT that enhances high specific surface, atom exposure, and mass transfer, the FeMn DA /BCNT nanozymes exhibit potent superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione peroxidase (GPx)‐like activities. Further encapsulation with a macrophage membrane ([MM]FeMn DA /BCNT) confers excellent biocompatibility and active targeting ability toward inflammatory sites. The resulting [MM]FeMn DA /BCNT nanozymes target the inflammatory microenvironment, scavenges ROS, restores mitochondrial function, and suppresses NLRP3 inflammasome activation, thereby inhibiting pyroptosis. In vivo, [MM]FeMn DA /BCNT nanozymes show good biocompatibility and efficacy in treating osteoarthritis, acute liver injury, and acute kidney in...
