Abstract
Radiotherapy has been widely used in clinical cancer treatment. However, the ionizing radiation required to kill the tumor will inevitably cause damage to the surrounding normal tissues. To minimize the radiation damage and side effects, small molecular radioprotective agents have been used as clinical adjuvants for radiation protection of healthy tissues. However, the shortcomings of small molecules such as short circulation time and rapid kidney clearance from the body greatly hinder their biomedical applications. In recent years, nanozymes have attracted much attention because of their potential to treat a variety of diseases. Nanozymes exhibit catalytic properties and antioxidant capabilities to provide a potential solution for the development of high-efficiency radioprotective agents in radiotherapy and nuclear radiation accidents. Therefore, in this review, we systematically summarize the catalytic nanozymes used for radiation protection of healthy tissues and discuss the challenges and future prospects of nanomaterials in the field of radiation protection.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play an essential role in physiological and pathological processes. Studies on the regulation of ROS for disease treatments have caused wide concern, mainly involving the topics in ROS-regulating therapy such as antioxidant therapy triggered by ROS scavengers and ROS-induced toxic therapy mediated by ROS-elevation agents. Benefiting from the remarkable advances of nanotechnology, a large number of nanomaterials with the ROS-regulating ability are developed to seek new and effective ROS-related nanotherapeutic modalities or nanomedicines. Although considerable achievements have been made in ROS-based nanomedicines for disease treatments, some fundamental but key questions such as the rational design principle for ROS-related nanomaterials are held in low regard. Here, the design principle can serve as the initial framework for scientists and technicians to design and optimize the ROS-regulating nanomedicines, thereby minimizing the gap of nanomedicines for biomedical application during the design stage. Herein, an overview of the current progress of ROS-associated nanomedicines in disease treatments is summarized. And then, by particularly addressing these known strategies in ROS-associated therapy, several fundamental and key principles for the design of ROS-associated nanomedicines are presented. Finally, future perspectives are also discussed in depth for the development of ROS-associated nanomedicines.

Abstract
Radioprotectors for acute injuries caused by large doses of ionizing radiation are vital to national security, public health and future development of humankind. Here, we develop a strategy to explore safe and efficient radioprotectors by combining Hantzsch's reaction, high-throughput methods and polymer chemistry. A water-soluble polymer with low-cytotoxicity and an excellent anti-radiation capability has been achieved. In in vivo experiments, this polymer is even better than amifostine, which is the only approved radioprotector for clinical applications, in effectively protecting zebrafish embryos from fatally large doses of ionizing radiation (80 Gy X-ray). A mechanistic study also reveals that the radioprotective ability of this polymer originates from its ability to efficiently prevent DNA damage due to high doses of radiation. This is an initial attempt to explore polymer radioprotectors via a multi-component reaction. It allows exploiting functional polymers and provides the underlying insights to guide the design of radioprotective polymers.

Abstract
Cancer has nowadays become one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Conventional anticancer approaches are associated with different limitations. Therefore, innovative methodologies are being investigated, and several researchers propose the use of remotely activated nanoparticles to trigger cancer cell death. The idea is to conjugate two different components, i.e., an external physical input and nanoparticles. Both are given in a harmless dose that once combined together act synergistically to therapeutically treat the cell or tissue of interest, thus also limiting the negative outcomes for the surrounding tissues. Tuning both the properties of the nanomaterial and the involved triggering stimulus, it is possible furthermore to achieve not only a therapeutic effect, but also a powerful platform for imaging at the same time, obtaining a nano-theranostic application. In the present review, we highlight the role of nanoparticles as therapeutic or theranostic tools, thus excluding the cases where a molecular drug is activated. We thus present many examples where the highly cytotoxic power only derives from the active interaction between different physical inputs and nanoparticles. We perform a special focus on mechanical waves responding nanoparticles, in which remotely activated nanoparticles directly become therapeutic agents without the need of the administration of chemotherapeutics or sonosensitizing drugs.

Abstract
Free radicals were generally regarded as highly reactive, transient and harmful species. In fact, some of the free radicals can also be inactive, long-lived and beneficial for our health. These properties of free radicals provide future possibilities for their application in various fields. Owning to their open-shell electronic structure, free radicals exhibit unique advantages in biomedical applications, such as high reactivity, photoacoustic and photothermal conversion ability, molecular magnetic. In this review, recent progress on free radicals and their applications in cancer theranostics are presented. Typical materials that exhibit controlled generation of free radicals and their applications for photodynamic therapy (PDT), chemodynamic therapy (CDT), sonodynamic therapy (SDT), gas therapy, hypoxic cancer treatment, photothermal therapy (PTT), photoacoustic imaging (PAI) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are summarized and discussed.

Abstract
Titanium implants have been widely used in bone tissue engineering for decades. However, orthopedic implant-associated infections increase the risk of implant failure and even lead to amputation in severe cases. Although TiO2 has photocatalytic activity to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS), the recombination of generated electrons and holes limits its antibacterial ability. Here, we describe a graphdiyne (GDY) composite TiO2 nanofiber that combats implant infections through enhanced photocatalysis and prolonged antibacterial ability. In addition, GDY-modified TiO2 nanofibers exert superior biocompatibility and osteoinductive abilities for cell adhesion and differentiation, thus contributing to the bone tissue regeneration process in drug-resistant bacteria-induced implant infection.

Abstract
The study on the safety of nanomaterials in eyes is still in its early stages. In this study, we put our focus on the effect of one important nanoparticle feature - large surface area - to assess eye safety. To this end, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSiNPs) were for the first time employed as a model to evaluate their toxicity in eyes. The porosity of the MSiNPs endows them with a large surface area and the ability to attach to surrounding chemical or biological molecules, further enhancing their surface reactivity and toxic effects. Therefore, to better mimic MSiNP exposure in real environments, we also introduced other hazardous substances such as silver ions (Ag+) to the system and then investigated their synergistic nanotoxicity. Our results showed that the exposure to MSiNPs-Ag+ and even Ag+ at a safe dose, resulted in more significant toxicity than the MSiNPs alone, as evidenced from cell viability, apoptosis, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, and DNA damage experiments. RNA-Sequencing analysis revealed that the mRNA surveillance signalling pathway plays a unique role in regulating MSiNPs-Ag+-induced cytotoxicity. Besides this, severe corneal damage and dry eye were observed in rat models upon exposure to MSiNPs-Ag+ compared to MSiNPs. Most importantly, we also proposed a protein corona-based therapy to treat MSiNP-induced corneal disease, where the corneal damage could be rescued by fetal bovine serum (FBS) treatment.

Abstract
In this research, curcumin (CUR) conjugated albumin based nanoparticles (BSA-CUR) were designed for improvement and evaluation radioprotective effect of CUR. In this way, we have prepared BSA-CUR by covalently binding the CUR with BSA. Next, this synthesized prodrug was evaluated for physical and chemical properties by Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR), Dynamic light scattering (DLS), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Ultraviolet-visible (UV/Vis), and Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis. Furthermore, the chemical stability of designed prodrug was appraised. The result shows that the size of nanoparticles is 174.4 nm with a polydispersity index (PdI) of 0.191. The nanoparticles have a high loading capacity and show sustained release behavior. Loading of CUR to BSA not only could increase the chemical stability of CUR, but also could improve radioprotection efficacy of it's against X-Ray irradiation. The HHF-2 cells show 107% viability in the presence of BSA-CUR at a concentration of 50 µg/mL, whereas non-treated cells show 46% viability, under X-Ray irradiation. Also in vivo study results show that, four out of five mice have died when the mice irradiated by X-Ray and no received any treatment. Although, for a group that treated with BSA-CUR and also irradiated by X-Ray, median survival and survival rate was higher than CUR treated and control mice, and only two out of five mice have died. The result of this study proved that BSA-CUR can be used as a proficient vehicle for improving the potential radioprotective effect of CUR.

Abstract
The exploration of an old drug for new biomedical applications has an absolute predominance in shortening the clinical conversion time of drugs for clinical application. In this work, carbon nanoparticles suspension injection (CNSI), the first clinically approved carbon nanoparticles in China, is explored as a new nano-radioprotective agent for potent intestinal radioprotection. CNSI shows powerful radioprotective performance in the intestine under oral administration, including efficient free radical scavenging ability, good biosafety, high chemical stability, and relatively long retention time. For example, CNSI shows high reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging activities, which effectively alleviates the mitochondrial dysfunction and DNA double-strand breaks to protect the cells against radiation-induced damage. Most importantly, this efficient ROS scavenging ability greatly helps restrain the apoptosis of the small intestinal epithelial and crypt stem cells, which decreases the damage of the mechanical barrier and thus relieves radiation enteritis. Moreover, CNSI helps remove the free radicals in the intestinal microenvironment and thus maintain the balance of intestinal flora so as to mitigate the radiation enteritis. The finding suggests a new application of clinically approved carbon nanoparticles, which not only promotes the development of new intestinal radioprotector, but also has a great potential for clinical transformation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Increasing resistance to available drugs and their associated side-effects have drawn wide attention towards designing alternative therapeutic strategies for control of hyperglycemia and oxidative stress. The roles of the sizes and shapes of the nanomaterials used in the treatment and management of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) in preventing chronic hyperglycaemia and oxidative stress are investigated. We report specifically on the effects of doping silver (Ag) into the ZnO nanorods (ZnO:Ag NR's) as a rational drug designing strategy. METHODS Inhibition of porcine pancreatic α-amylase, murine pancreatic amylase, α-glucosidase, murine intestinal glucosidase and amyloglucosidase are checked for evaluation of antidiabetic potential. In addition, the radical scavenging activities of ZnO:Ag NR's against nitric oxide, DDPH and superoxide radicals are evaluated. RESULTS Quantitative radical scavenging and metabolic enzyme inhibition activities of ZnO:Ag NR's at a concentration of 100 μg/mL were found to depend on the amount of Ag doped in up to a threshold level (3-4 %). Circular dichroism analysis revealed that the interaction of the NR's with the enzymes altered their secondary conformation. This alteration is the underlying mechanism for the potent enzyme inhibition. CONCLUSIONS Enhanced inhibition of enzymes and scavenging of free radicals primarily responsible for reactive oxygen species (ROS) mediated damage, provide a strong scientific rationale for considering ZnO:Ag NR's as a candidate nanomedicine for controlling postprandial hyperglycaemia and the associated oxidative stress.

Abstract
Nanoparticles (NPs) are widely used in a variety of fields, including those related to consumer products, architecture, energy, and biomedicine. Once they enter the human body, NPs contact proteins in the blood and interact with cells in organs, which may induce cytotoxicity. Among the various factors of NP surface chemistry, surface charges, hydrophobicity levels and combinatorial decorations are found to play key roles inregulating typical cytotoxicity-related bioeffects, including protein binding, cellular uptake, oxidative stress, autophagy, inflammation, and apoptosis. In this review, we summarize the recent progress made in directing the levels and molecular pathways of these cytotoxicity-related effects by the purposeful design of NP surface charge, hydrophobicity, and combinatorial decorations.

Abstract
A sulfur-rich graphdiyne (TTF-GDY) material containing electrochemically active unit of tetrathiafulvalene was successfully synthesized at the liquid/liquid interface under mild conditions. The extended two-dimensional (2D) π-conjugated framework contains large in-plane cavities to accommodate defined sulfur elements and precise sulfur content. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and atomic force microscopy (AFM) characterizations demonstrated that the TTF-GDY adopted the layered structures. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Raman spectrum, selected area electron diffraction (SAED), crystal modeling, and molecular-mechanics-based calculation further confirmed the proposed framework structure and the expected chemical compositions. Considering the unique structure and sulfur-rich characteristic, we then applied this material as an electrode in lithium battery applications. Due to the unique 2D framework structure, the TTF-GDY exhibited a high specific capacity of 837.6 mAh/g, particularly having a robust long-term stability under the high current density. These results demonstrated that such a sulfur-rich TTF-GDY, as a novel electrochemical material would have great application potential in energy fields.

Abstract
Carbon monoxide (CO) therapy has emerged as a hot topic under exploration in the field of gas therapy as it shows the promise of treating various diseases. Due to the gaseous property and the high affinity for human hemoglobin, the main challenges of administrating medicinal CO are the lack of target selectivity as well as the toxic profile at relatively high concentrations. Although abundant CO releasing molecules (CORMs) with the capacity to deliver CO in biological systems have been developed, several disadvantages related to CORMs, including random diffusion, poor solubility, potential toxicity, and lack of on-demand CO release in deep tissue, still confine their practical use. Recently, the advent of versatile nanomedicine has provided a promising chance for improving the properties of naked CORMs and simultaneously realizing the therapeutic applications of CO. This review presents a brief summarization of the emerging delivery strategies of CO based on nanomaterials for therapeutic application. First, an introduction covering the therapeutic roles of CO and several frequently used CORMs is provided. Then, recent advancements in the synthesis and application of versatile CO releasing nanomaterials are elaborated. Finally, the current challenges and future directions of these important delivery strategies are proposed.

Abstract
Magnetofluorescent carbon dots (Cdots) doped with both P3+ and Mn2+ (abbreviated as PMn@Cdots) have been synthesized in an aqueous solution via a microwave-assisted pyrolysis method. In this system, a P3+ dopant was introduced to enhance the emission efficiency of the Cdots, while the presence of a Mn2+ dopant granted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) capability. To the best of our knowledge, the present work is the first attempt to regulate red-emission and free radical scavenging of PMn@Cdots to serve as a dual-modal imaging nanoprobe and an antioxidant agent. Unlike most red-emitting Cdots, the as-prepared PMn@Cdots can be readily purified from unreacted precursors through antisolvent precipitation instead of by time-consuming purification methods. The whole synthetic procedure is rapid, facile, efficiently reproducible, and scalable. More importantly, further conjugation of the PMn@Cdots with hyaluronic acid (termed PMn@Cdots/HA) gives them good in vivo and in vitro biocompatibility as well as the capability to selectively target CD44-overexpressing cancer cells, as investigated by flow cytometry, fluorescence, and MRI. Meanwhile, PMn@Cdots exhibit antioxidant activity against multiple DPPH, hydroxyl, and superoxide radicals, which is comparable to that for ascorbic acid. Favorably, PMn@Cdots/HA showed a dose-dependent cytoprotective capability against H2O2-induced oxidative stress in B16F1, HeLa, and HEL cells. Therefore, the Cdot based theranostic platform can simultaneously function as a potential therapeutic candidate and as a dual-modal probe for enabling accurate diagnosis in future clinical applications.

Abstract
Radiotherapy is the mainstay for abdomen and pelvis cancers treatment. However, high energy ray would inflict gastrointestinal (GI) system and adversely disrupt the treatment. The anti-oxidative agents provide a potential route for protecting body from radiation-induced injuries. Herein, highly catalytic nanocubes with dislocation structure are developed for treatment of intestinal injury. Structural and catalytic properties show that Mo incorporation can enhance antioxidant activity by dislocation structure in the alloy. In vitro studies showed that PtPdMo improved cell survival by scavenging radiation-induced ROS accumulation. Furthermore, after animals were exposed to lethal dose of radiation, the survival was increased by 50% with the PtPdMo i.p. treatment. Radioprotection mechanism revealed that PtPdMo alleviated the oxidative stress in multi-organs especially the small intestine by inhibiting intestinal epithelium apoptosis, reducing DNA strands breaks and enhancing repairing ability. In addition, PtPdMo protected hematopoietic system by improving the number of bone marrow and peripheral blood cells.

Abstract
Graphdiyne has attracted much interest from researchers for their potential applications in energy storage, catalysis, and biomedical areas. As one of the derivatives of graphdiyne, graphdiyne quantum dots (GDQDs) may possess superior bioactivity due to active acetylene units. However, the biological application of biocompatible GDQDs have not been reported so far. Herein, GDQDs with uniform size and good crystallization were prepared via a classical solvothermal method. The GDQDs exhibit excitation- and pH-dependent fluorescence emission as well as superior photostability, demonstrating their potential for bioimaging. The GDQDs demonstrate efficient cellular uptake and cell imaging without induction of detectable cytotoxic effects in vitro. Systematical safety evaluation further confirmed good biocompatibility of the GDQDs in vivo. Our study preliminarily validates the application of the GDQDs in biomedicine and encourages more thorough studies for better realizing the potential of GDQDs.

Abstract
Ionizing radiation (IR) has been extensively used in industry and radiotherapy, but IR exposure from nuclear or radiological accidents often causes serious health effects in an exposed individual, and its application in radiotherapy inevitably brings undesirable damage to normal tissues. In this work, we have developed ultrathin two-dimensional (2D) niobium carbide (Nb2C) MXene as a radioprotectant and explored its application in scavenging free radicals against IR. The 2D Nb2C MXene features intriguing antioxidant properties in effectively eliminating hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), hydroxyl radicals (•OH), and superoxide radicals (O2•-). Pretreatment with biocompatible polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP)-functionalized Nb2C nanosheets (Nb2C-PVP NSs) significantly reduces IR-induced production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), resulting in enhanced cell viability in vitro. A single intravenous injection of Nb2C-PVP significantly enhances the survival rate of 5 and 6.5 Gy irradiated mice to 100% and 81.25%, respectively, and significantly increases bone marrow mononuclear cells after IR. Critically, Nb2C-PVP reverses the damage of the hematopoietic system in irradiated mice. Single administration of Nb2C-PVP significantly increases superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities, decreases malondialdehyde levels, and thereby reduces IR-induced pathological damage in the testis, small intestine, lung, and liver of 5 Gy irradiated mice. Importantly, Nb2C-PVP is almost completely eliminated from the mouse body on day 14 post treatment, and no obvious toxicities are observed during the 30-day post treatment period. Our study pioneers the application of 2D MXenes with intrinsic radioprotective nature in vivo.

Abstract
High energy ray in medical diagnosis and therapy can benefit to patients, but can also cause the significant damages to biomolecules such as DNA, as well as free radical generation, inevitably leading to numerous side effects. Small molecular radioprotectors provide an effective route to preserve the healthy tissue and whole body from ionizing radiation, but always have a short circulation time in body. Inorganic nanoparticles show major protection effect but their heavy metal components considerably jeopardize translational promise due to suboptimal biocompatibility. Herein, we report a novel protein nanoparticle that can overcome limitations of both small molecular and inorganic nanoparticle radioprotectors and can be used as a radioprotector with spontaneous biocompatibility, outstanding pharmacokinetics and improvement on survival rate under exposure to γ-ray irradiation. PHA-L protein nanoparticle serves to clear excessive reactive oxygen species in vivo, prevents radiation-induced hematopoietic and gastrointestinal damages and boosts the survival rate of irradiated mice to ∼70%. A detailed study of the mechanism shows PHA-L protein nanoparticle can target and activate the toll-like receptor 5 in vitro and in vivo, and thus protect irradiated cells by immune response. Importantly, the PHA-L protein nanoparticle can perform highly efficient clearance while eliciting negligible toxicological response.

Abstract
A hybrid nanosystem with impeccable cellular imaging and antioxidant functionality is demonstrated. The microwave irradiation-derived molybdenum trioxide nanoparticles (MoO3 NPs) were surface-functionalized with the cationic dye molecule, methylene blue (MB), which enables superior UV-visible absorbance and fluorescence emission wavelengths potential for bioimaging. The radical scavenging property of the pristine MoO3 NPs and MoO3-MB NPs were studied in vivo using Caenorhabditis elegans as the model system. Heat shock-induced oxidative stress in C. elegans was significantly resolved by the MoO3-MB NPs, in agreement with the in vitro radical scavenging study by electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy. Hybrid nanostructures of MoO3-MB demonstrate synergistic benefits in intracellular imaging with intrinsic biocompatibility and antioxidant behavior, which can facilitate application as advanced healthcare materials toward bioimaging and clinical therapeutics.

Abstract
As a rising star of carbon allotropes, graphynes (GYs) merely consist of sp- and sp2-hybridized carbon atoms, which endow them a large conjugated network and expanded 2D porous structure. With unique topological structure, GYs display unusual semiconducting properties, especially in the aspects of charge mobility and electron transport. Among the members of the GY family, only graphdiyne (GD) can be successfully synthesized in large quantities. The advanced properties of GD make it promising in various applications. Here, the recent progress in the synthesis of GD and GD-based composites is reviewed as well as their applications in photorelated and electrocatalytic applications. It is hoped that this Review will promote the development and applications of carbon chemistry.

Abstract
AEOL-10150 is a broad-spectrum metalloporphyrin superoxidase dismutase (SOD) mimic specifically designed to neutralize reactive oxygen and nitrogen species. Research has shown that AEOL-10150 is a potent medical countermeasure against national security threats including sulfur mustard (SM), nerve agent exposure and radiation pneumonitis following a radiological/nuclear incident sufficient to cause acute radiation syndrome (ARS). AEOL-10150 performed well in animal safety studies, and two completed phase 1 safety studies in patients demonstrated that the drug was safe and well tolerated, indicating that AEOL-10150 has potential as a new catalytic antioxidant drug. In this article, we review improvements in AEOL-10150 in preclinical pharmacodynamic studies, especially regarding anti-SM, chlorine gas and radiation exposure studies.
