High-temperature cuprate superconductors (HTSC) are modelled within a two-component approach where strong inter-component interactions are driven by the lattice. It is shown that a polaronic renormalization of the single-particle energies together with the inter-component interactions lead to a substantial enhancement of the superconducting transition temperature Tc , various unconventional isotope effects, and strain-induced enhancements of Tc . Further consequences of polaronic renormalization effects are discussed.
