Abstract
Metal peroxide nanomaterials as efficient hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) self-supplying agents have attracted the attention of researchers for antitumor treatment. However, relying solely on metal peroxides to provide H2O2 is undoubtedly insufficient to achieve optimal antitumor effects. Herein, we construct novel hyaluronic acid (HA)-modified nanocomposites (MgO2/Pd@HA NCs) formed by decorating palladium nanoparticles (Pd NPs) onto the surfaces of a magnesium peroxide (MgO2) nanoflower as a highly effective nanoplatform for the tumor microenvironment (TME)-responsive induction of ferroptosis in tumor cells and tumor photothermal therapy (PTT). MgO2/Pd@HA NC could be well endocytosed into tumor cells with CD44 expression depending on the specific recognition of HA with CD44, and then, the nanocomposites can be rapidly decomposed in mild acid and hyaluronidase overexpressed TME, and plenty of H2O2 was released. Simultaneously, Pd NPs catalyze self-supplied H2O2 to generate abundant hydroxyl radicals (•OH) and catalyze glutathione (GSH) into glutathione disulfide owing to its peroxidase and glutathione oxidase mimic enzyme activities, while the abundant •OH could also consume GSH in tumor cells and disturb the defense pathways of ferroptosis leading to the accumulation of lipid peroxidation and resulting in the occurrence of ferroptosis. Additionally, the superior photothermal conversion performance of Pd NPs in near-infrared II could also be used for PTT, synergistically cooperating with nanocomposite-induced ferroptosis for tumor inhibition. Consequently, the successfully prepared TME-responsive MgO2/Pd@HA NCs exhibited marked antitumor effect without obvious biotoxicity, contributing to thoroughly explore the nanocomposites as a novel and promising treatment for tumor therapy.

Abstract
Catalytic therapy based on nanozymes is promising for the treatment of bacterial infections. However, its therapeutic efficacy is usually restricted by the limited amount of hydrogen peroxide and the weak acidic environment in infected tissues. To solve these issues, we prepared polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)-polyacrylic acid (PAA)-iron oxide (Fe3O4)/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)-zinc peroxide (ZnO2) double-layer electrospun nanofibers (PPF/PZ NFs). In this design, PVA serves as the carrier for ZnO2 nanoparticles (NPs), Fe3O4 NPs, and PAA. The double-layer structure of nanofibers can spatially separate the PAA and ZnO2 to avoid their reaction with each other during preparation and storage, while in the wet wound bed, PVA can dissolve and PAA can provide H+ ions to promote the generation of hydrogen peroxide and subsequent conversion to hydroxyl radicals for bacteria killing. In vitro experimental results demonstrated that PPF/PZ NFs can reduce the methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus by 3.1 log (99.92%). Moreover, PPF/PZ NFs can efficiently treat the bacterial infection in a mouse wound model and promote wound healing with negligible toxicity to animals, indicating their potential use as "plug-and-play" antibacterial wound dressings. This work provides a novel strategy for the construction of double-layer electrospun nanofibers as catalytic wound dressings with hydrogen peroxide/acid self-supplying properties for the efficient treatment of bacterial infections.

Abstract
Nanozyme-mediated chemodynamic therapy has emerged as a promising strategy due to its tumor specificity and controlled catalytic activity. However, the poor efficacy caused by low hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) levels in the tumor microenvironment (TME) poses challenges. Herein, an H2O2 self-supplying nanozyme is constructed through loading peroxide-like active platinum nanoparticles (Pt NPs) on zinc peroxide (ZnO2) (denoted as ZnO2@Pt). ZnO2 releases H2O2 in response to the acidic TME. Pt NPs catalyze the hydroxyl radical generation from H2O2 while reducing the mitigation of oxidative stress by glutathione, serving as a reactive oxygen (ROS) amplifier through self-cascade catalysis. In addition, Zn2+ released from ZnO2 interferes with tumor cell energy supply and metabolism, enabling ion interference therapy to synergize with chemodynamic therapy. In vitro studies demonstrate that ZnO2@Pt induces cellular oxidative stress injury through enhanced ROS generation and Zn2+ release, downregulating ATP and NAD+ levels. In vivo assessment of anticancer effects showed that ZnO2@Pt could generate ROS at tumor sites to induce apoptosis and downregulate energy supply pathways associated with glycolysis, resulting in an 89.7% reduction in tumor cell growth. This study presents a TME-responsive nanozyme capable of H2O2 self-supply and ion interference therapy, providing a paradigm for tumor-specific nanozyme design.

Abstract
Implant-associated osteomyelitis (IAOM) is characterized by bone infection and destruction; current therapy of antibiotic treatment and surgical debridement often results in drug resistance and bone defect. It is challenging to develop an antibiotic-free bactericidal and osteogenic-enhanced strategy for IAOM. Herein, an IAOM-tailored antibacterial and osteoinductive composite of copper (Cu)-strontium (Sr) peroxide nanoparticles (CSp NPs), encapsulated in polyethylene glycol diacrylate (PEGDA) (CSp@PEGDA), is designed. The dual functional CSp NPs display hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) self-supplying and Fenton catalytic Cu2+ ions' release, generating plenty of hydroxyl radical (•OH) in a pH-responsive manner for bacterial killing, while the released Sr2+ promotes the in vitro osteogenicity regarding cell proliferation, alkaline phosphatase activity, extracellular matrix calcification, and osteo-associated genes expression. The integration of Cu2+ and Sr2+ in CSp NPs together with the coated PEGDA hydrogel ensures the stable and sustainable ion release during short- and long-term periods. Benefitted from the injectablity and photo-crosslink ability, CSp@PEGDA is able to thoroughly fill the infectious site and gelate in situ for bacterial elimination and bone regeneration, which is verified through in vivo evaluation using a clinical-simulating IAOM mouse model. These favorable abilities of CSp@PEGDA precisely meet the multiple therapeutic needs and pave a promising way for implant-associated osteomyelitis treatment.

Abstract
The successful treatment of persistent and recurrent endodontic infections hinges upon the eradication of residual microorganisms within the root canal system, which urgently needs novel drugs to deliver potent yet gentle antimicrobial effects. Antibacterial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) is a promising tool for root canal infection management. Nevertheless, the hypoxic microenvironment within the root canal system significantly limits the efficacy of this treatment. Herein, a nanohybrid drug, Ce6/CaO2/ZIF-8@polyethylenimine (PEI), is developed using a bottom-up strategy to self-supply oxygen for enhanced aPDT. PEI provides a positively charged surface, which enables precise targeting of bacteria. CaO2 reacts with H2O to generate O2, which alleviates the hypoxia in the root canal and serves as a substrate for Ce6 under 660 nm laser irradiation, leading to the successful eradication of planktonic Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis) and biofilm in vitro and, moreover, the effective elimination of mature E. faecalis biofilm in situ within the root canal system. This smart design offers a viable alternative for mitigating hypoxia within the root canal system to overcome the restricted efficacy of photosensitizers, providing an exciting prospect for the clinical management of persistent endodontic infection.

Abstract
The onset of implant-associated infection (IAI) triggers a cascade of immune responses, which are initially dominated by neutrophils. Bacterial aggregate formation and hypoxic microenvironment, which occur shortly after implantation, may be two major risk factors that impair neutrophil function and lead to IAI. Here, the implant surface with phytic acid-Zn2+ coordinated TiO2 nanopillar arrays (PA-Zn@TiNPs) and oxygen self-supporting CaO2 nanoparticles, named as CPZTs, is mechanochemically reprogrammed. The engineered CPZTs interface integrates multiple properties to inhibit the formation of nascent biofilm, encompassing antibacterial adhesion, mechanobactericidal effect, and chemobiocidal effect. Meanwhile, continuous oxygenation fuels the neutrophils with reactive oxygen species (ROS) for efficient bacterial elimination on the implant surface and inside the neutrophils. Furthermore, this surface modulation strategy accelerates neutrophil apoptosis and promotes M2 macrophage-mediated osteogenesis both in vitro and in a rat model of IAI. In conclusion, targeting neutrophils for immunomodulation is a practical and effective strategy to prevent IAI and promote bone-implant integration.

Abstract
Caries are one of the most common oral diseases caused by pathogenic bacterial infections, which are widespread and persistently harmful to human health. Using nanoparticles to invade biofilms and produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) in situ is a promising strategy for killing bacteria and disrupting the structure of biofilms. In this work, a biofilm-targeting Fenton nanoreactor is reported that can generate ROS responsive to the cariogenic microenvironment. The nanoreactor is constructed by metal-phenolic encapsulation of calcium peroxide (CaO2) followed by modification with a biofilm targeting ligand dextran. Within the cariogenic biofilm, the Fenton nanoreactor is activated by an acidic microenvironment to be decomposed into H2O2 and iron ions, triggering a Fenton-like reaction to generate ROS that can eliminate the biofilm by breaking down extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) and killing cariogenic bacteria. Meanwhile, the depletion of excess protons in biofilm leads to a reversal of the cariogenic microenvironment. The Fenton nanoreactor can effectively inhibit the biofilm formation of Streptococcus mutans on ex vivo human teeth and is effective in preventing caries meanwhile maintaining the oral microbial diversity in rat caries infection model. This work provides a novel and efficient modality for acid microenvironment-driven ROS therapy.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) has emerged as potent therapeutic agents for biofilm-associated bacterial infections. Chemodynamic therapy (CDT), involving the generation of high-energy ROS, displays great potential in the therapy of bacterial infections. However, challenges such as insufficient hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and over-expressed glutathione (GSH) levels within the microenvironment of bacterial biofilms severely limit the antibacterial efficacy of CDT. Herein, we have developed a multifunctional nanoplatform (CuS@CaO2@Dex) by integrating copper sulfide (CuS) and calcium peroxide (CaO2) into dextran (Dex)-coated nanoparticles. This innovative platform enhanced ROS generation for highly efficient biofilm elimination by simultaneously supplying H2O2 and depleting GSH. The Dex-coating facilitated the penetrability of CuS@CaO2@Dex into biofilms, while CaO2 generated a substantial amount of H2O2 in the acidic biofilm microenvironment. CuS, through a Fenton-like reaction, catalyzed the conversion of self-supplied H2O2 into hydroxyl radicals (•OH) and consumed the overexpressed GSH. Additionally, the incorporation of near-infrared II (NIR II) laser irradiation enhanced the photothermal properties of CuS, improving the catalytic efficiency of the Fenton-like reaction for enhanced antibacterial effects. In vivo experiments have demonstrated that CuS@CaO2@Dex exhibited remarkable antibacterial and antibiofilm efficacy, exceptional wound healing capabilities, and notable biosafety. In summary, the Dex-coated nanoplatform proposed in this study, with its self-sterilization capability through ROS, holds significant potential for future biomedical applications.

Abstract
Addressing the challenges of chemodynamic therapies (CDTs) relying on Fenton reactions in malignant tumors is an active research area. Here, we report a method to develop pH-responsive hybrid nanoparticles for enhanced chemodynamic tumor treatment. Reactive CaO2 nanoparticles (core) are isolated by biocompatible ZIF-8 doped with Fe2+ (shell), and then encapsulated by macrophage membranes (symbolized as CaO2@Fe-ZIF-8@macrophage membrane or CFZM), thus endowed with high stability under normal physiological conditions. Our design features active tumor-homing by the macrophage-membrane coating, tumor microenvironment (TME)-responsive cargo release, and self-supplied hydrogen peroxide for promotion of the Fenton reaction. We demonstrate the improved delivery/tumor cell uptake of CFZM, the efficient production of toxic ˙OH with self-supplied H2O2 in CFZM, and high-efficacy tumor ablation on BALB/c mice bearing CT26 tumor cells. This offers a translational strategy to develop active tumor-targeting and TME-responsive nanotherapeutics with enhanced CDT against malignant tumors.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is an alternative cancer treatment technique with a noninvasive nature, high selectivity, and minimal adverse effects. The indispensable light source used in PDT is a critical factor in determining the energy conversion of photosensitizers (PSs). Traditional light sources are primarily concentrated in the visible light region, severely limiting their penetration depth and making them prone to scattering and absorption when applied to biological tissues. For that reason, its efficacy in treating deep-seated lesions is often inadequate. Self-exciting PDT, also known as auto-PDT (APDT), is an attractive option for circumventing the limited penetration depth of traditional PDT and has acquired significant attention. APDT employs depth-independent internal light sources to excite PSs through resonance or radiative energy transfer. APDT has considerable potential for treating deep-tissue malignancies. To facilitate many researchers' comprehension of the latest research progress in this field and inspire the emergence of more novel research results. This review introduces internal light generation mechanisms and characteristics and provides an overview of current research progress based on the recently reported APDT nanoplatforms. The current challenges and possible solutions of APDT nanoplatforms are also presented and provide insights for future research in the final section of this article.

Abstract
Intestinal epithelia impairment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) leads to the leakage of bacteria and antigens and the consequent persistent immune imbalance. Restoring the epithelial barrier is a promising therapeutic target but lacks effective and safe clinical interventions. By identifying the catalase (CAT) presence in the IBD pathological environment, we herein develop a CAT-catalyzed pathologically coating on the damaged epithelial barrier to inhibit intestinal leakage for IBD therapy. With the codelivery of CaO2 (a CAT substrate) and dopamine, the nanosystem can enable CAT-catalyzed oxygen (O2) production and in-situ polymerization of dopamine and then yield a thin and integrative polydopamine (PDA) coating on the intestinal barrier due to the highly adhesive property of PDA. In vivo study demonstrates that PDA coating provides not only a protective barrier by restricting intestinal leakage but also a favorable anti-inflammation effect. Beyond drug management, this work provides a physical repair strategy via catalyzed coating for IBD therapy.

Abstract
Due to the complexity of tumors, multimodal therapy for them has always been of concern to researchers. How to design a multifunctional drug nanoplatform with cascade effect and capable of responding to specific stimuli in the tumor microenvironment is the key to achieve efficient multimodal synergistic therapy of cancer. Here, we prepare a kind of GNRs@SiO2@PDA-CuO2-l-Arg (GSPRs-CL) nanomotors for systematic treatment of tumor. First, under near-infrared (NIR) irradiation, GSPRs-CL can generate heat and exhibit excellent photothermal therapy effect. Then under acidic conditions, CuO2 can be decomposed to release Cu2+ and generate H2O2, which not only complemented the limited endogenous H2O2 in cells, but also further triggered Fenton-like reaction, converting H2O2 into •OH to kill cancer cells, thereby achieving chemodynamic therapy. Furthermore, both endogenous and exogenous H2O2 can release nitric oxide (NO) in response to the occurrence of l-Arg of nanomotors to enhance gas therapy. In addition, as a dual-mode drive, NIR laser and NO can promote the penetration ability of nanomotors at tumor sites. The experimental results in vivo show that the drug nanoplatform had good biosafety and significant tumor killing effect triggered by NIR light and acidic conditions of tumor. It provide a promising strategy for the development of advanced drug nanoplatform for cancer therapy.

Abstract
Ferric phosphate (FePOs) nanoenzymes can express peroxidase (POD) activity under the dual stimulation of an acidic environment and high H2O2 concentrations. In living organisms, this generates reactive oxygen species (ROS) in sites of lesion infection, and thus FePOs nanoenzymes can act as antimicrobial agents. Here, CeO2 and ZnO2 were immobilized in a scallop-type FePOs nanoenzyme material loaded with a photosensitizer, indocyanine green, to synthesize a multifunctional cascade nanoparticle system (FePOs-CeO2-ZnO2-ICG, FCZI NPs). H2O2 concentrations could be adjusted through the ZnO2 self-activation response to the slightly acidic environment in biofilms, further promoting the release of ROS from the POD-like reaction of FePOs, achieving amplification of oxidative stress, DNA and cell membrane damage, and exploiting the photodynamic/photothermal effects of indocyanine green to enhance the antibiofilm effects. CeO2 can remove redundant ROS by switching from Ce4+ to Ce3+ valence, enhancing its ability to fight chronic inflammation and oxidative stress and thus promoting the regeneration of tissues around infection. By maintaining the redox balance of normal cells, increasing ROS at the infection site, eliminating redundant ROS, and protecting normal tissues from damage, the synthesized system maximizes the elimination of biofilms and treatment at the infection site. Therefore, this work may pave the way for the application of biocompatible nanoenzymes.

Abstract
Metal peroxide-based nanomedicines have emerged as promising theranostic agents for cancer due to their multifunctional properties, including the generation of bioactive small molecules such as metal ions, H2O2, O2, and OH-. Among these metal peroxides, calcium peroxide (CaO2) nanomedicines have attracted significant attention due to their facile synthesis and good biocompatibility. CaO2nanoparticles have been explored for cancer treatment through three main mechanisms: (1) the release of O2, which helps alleviate tumor hypoxia and enhances oxygen-dependent therapies such as chemotherapy, photodynamic therapy, and immunotherapy; (2) the generation of H2O2, a precursor for ·OH generation, which enables cancer chemodynamic therapy; and (3) the release of Ca2+ions, which induce calcium overload and promote cell apoptosis (called ion-interference therapy). This review provides a comprehensive summary of recent examples of CaO2nanoparticle-based cancer therapeutic strategies, as well as discusses the challenges and future directions in the development of CaO2nanomedicines for cancer treatment.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) has garnered significant interest as an innovative approach for cancer treatment, owing to its notable tumor specificity and selectivity, minimal systemic toxicity and side effects, and absence of the requirement for field stimulation during treatment. This treatment utilizes nanocatalytic medicines containing transitional metals to release metal ions within tumor cells, subsequently initiating Fenton and Fenton-like reactions. These reactions convert hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) into hydroxyl radical (•OH) specifically within the acidic tumor microenvironment (TME), thereby inducing apoptosis in tumor cells. However, insufficient endogenous H2O2, the overexpressed reducing substances in the TME, and the weak acidity of solid tumors limit the performance of CDT and restrict its application in vivo. Therefore, a variety of nanozymes and strategies have been designed and developed in order to potentiate CDT against tumors, including the application of various nanozymes and different strategies to remodel TME for enhanced CDT (e.g., increasing the H2O2 level in situ, depleting reductive substances, and lowering the pH value). This review presents an overview of the design and development of various nanocatalysts and the corresponding strategies employed to enhance catalytic drug targeting in recent years. Additionally, it delves into the prospects and obstacles that lie ahead for the future advancement of CDT.

Abstract
Vascular dysfunction severely hinders the healing process of diabetic wounds. Therefore, a radially structured fibrous membrane was fabricated through electrospinning by using a polycaprolactone (PCL) and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) mixed solution containing copper peroxide nanoparticles (CPs) as the chemodynamic therapy (CDT) agents, aiming to simultaneously accelerate tissue regeneration and angiogenesis. The fabricated membrane allowed for the in situ H2O2 generation activated by the acidic diabetic microenvironment and the subsequent Fenton-type reactions to realize 99.4% elimination against Staphylococcus aureus. Besides, the released Cu2+ ions significantly enhanced the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), and they showed enhanced in vitro angiogenesis. Interestingly, the CP-embedded membrane also guided cell spreading and orientated migration of L929 fibroblasts along the fiber distribution through the radially aligned topology. The in vivo implantation indicated that the raidally structured membrane modified by CPs not only dramatically accelerated wound healing of diabetic Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats in 14 days but also promoted angiogenesis in wound sites. The combination of the in situ CDT with the radially structured morphology of the functional membrane is highly promising in applications to promote diabetic wound healing through anti-infection and revascularization.

Abstract
Oxygen is a critical factor that can regulate the wound healing processes such as skin cell proliferation, granulation, re-epithelialization, angiogenesis, and tissue regeneration. However, hypoxia, a common occurrence in the wound bed, can impede normal healing processes. To enhance wound healing, oxygenation strategies that could effectively increase wound oxygen levels are effective. The present review summarizes wound healing stages and the role of hypoxia in wound healing and overviews current strategies to incorporate various oxygen delivery or generating materials for wound dressing, including catalase, nanoenzyme, hemoglobin, calcium peroxide, or perfluorocarbon-based materials, in addition to photosynthetic bacteria and hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Mechanism of action, oxygenation efficacy, and potential benefits and drawbacks of these dressings are also discussed. We conclude by highlighting the importance of design optimization in wound dressings to address the clinical needs to improve clinical outcomes.

Abstract
To achieve the maximum therapeutic effects and minimize adverse effects of trimodal synergistic tumor therapies, a cost-effective programmed photothermal (PTT)-chemodynamic (CDT)-coordinated dual drug chemotherapy (CT) trimodal synergistic therapy strategy in chronological order is proposed. According to the status or volumes of the tumors, the intensity and time of each therapeutic modality are optimized, and three modalities are combined programmatically and work in chronological order. The optimal synergistic therapy begins with high-intensity PTT for 10 min to ablate larger tumors, followed by medium-intensity CDT for several hours to eliminate medium-sized tumors, and then low-intensity coordinated dual drugs CT lasts over 48 h to clear smaller residual tumors. Composite nanoparticles, made of Fe-coordinated polydopamine mixed with copper peroxide as the cores and their surface dotted with lots of doxorubicin-Fe(III)-gossypol infinite coordination polymers (ICPs), have been developed to implement the strategy. These composite nanoparticles show excellent synergistic effects with the minimum dose of therapeutic agents and result in nearly 100% tumor inhibition for mice bearing PC-3 tumors and no observed recurrence within 60 days of treatment. The ratios of the different therapeutic agents in the composite nanoparticles can be adjusted to accommodate different types of tumors with this cost-effective programmed trimodal therapy strategy.

Abstract
Prolonged and incurable bacterial infections in soft tissue and bone are currently causing large challenges in the clinic. Two-dimensional (2D) materials have been designed to address these issues, but materials with satisfying therapeutic effects are still needed. Herein, CaO2-loaded 2D titanium carbide nanosheets (CaO2-TiOx@Ti3C2, C-T@Ti3C2) were developed. Surprisingly, this nanosheet exhibited sonodynamic ability, in which CaO2 caused the in situ oxidation of Ti3C2 MXene to produce acoustic sensitiser TiO2 on its surface. In addition, this nanosheet displayed chemodynamic features, which promoted a Fenton reaction triggered by self-supplied H2O2. We detected that C-T@Ti3C2 nanosheets increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in response to sonodynamic therapy, which displayed an ideal antibacterial effect. Furthermore, these nanoreactors facilitated the deposition of Ca2+, which promoted osteogenic transformation and enhanced bone quality in osteomyelitis models. Herein, a wound healing model and prosthetic joint infection (PJI) model were established, and the C-T@Ti3C2 nanosheets played a protective role in these models. Taken together, the results indicated that the C-T@Ti3C2 nanosheets function as a multifunctional instrument with sonodynamic features, which might reveal information regarding the treatment of bacterial infections during wound healing.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) has shown potential for important applications in tumor precision therapy, but insufficient endogenous hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), overexpressed glutathione (GSH) and a weak Fenton-reaction rate greatly reduced the efficacy of CDT. Herein, a metal-organic framework (MOF) based bimetallic nanoprobe with self-supplying H2O2 was developed for enhancing CDT with triple amplification, in which ultrasmall gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were deposited on Co-based MOFs (ZIF-67), and manganese dioxide (MnO2) nanoshells were coated to form a ZIF-67@AuNPs@MnO2 nanoprobe. In the tumor microenvironment, MnO2 depleted overexpressed GSH to produce Mn2+, and the bimetallic Co2+/Mn2+ nanoprobe accelerated the Fenton-like reaction rate. Moreover, by catalyzing glucose via ultrasmall AuNPs, the self-supplying H2O2 further promoted hydroxyl radical (˙OH) generation. Compared with those of ZIF-67 and ZIF-67@AuNPs, the ˙OH yield of ZIF-67@AuNPs@MnO2 obviously increased, due to which the cell viability decreased to 9.3%, and the tumor completely disappeared, indicating the enhanced CDT performance of the ZIF-67@AuNPs@MnO2 nanoprobe.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) employs Fenton catalysts to kill bacteria by converting hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) into toxic hydroxyl radical (•OH). Among them, Fenton-type metal peroxide nanoparticles fascinate nanomaterials with intriguing physiochemical properties, but research on this antibacterial agent is still in its infancy. Herein, a distinct CuO2/TiO2 heterostructure constituted of ultrasmall copper peroxide (CuO2) nanoclusters and sonosensitized ultrathin oxygen vacancy-rich porous titanium oxide (OV-TiO2) nanosheets was developed and was incorporated into microneedles for bilaterally augmented sono-chemodynamic and sonothermal antibacterial therapy. Engineering CuO2 nanoclusters on the surface of TiO2 nanosheets not only endows the Fenton catalytic activity for sono-chemodynamic therapy (SCDT), but also improves the sonodynamic and sonothermal performance of TiO2 by narrowing the bandgap of TiO2 and suppressing the recombination of electron-hole pairs. The high efficacy of this CuO2/TiO2 integrated microneedle (CTMN) patch was systematically demonstrated both in vitro and in vivo with the eliminating rate >99.9999% against multidrug resistant (MDR) pathogens in 5 min as well as accelerated wound tissue healing. This work highlights a promisingly new and efficient strategy for the development of sonosensitive and chemoreactive nanomedicine for non-antibiotic therapies. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Feton-type metal peroxides, a novel nanomaterial with self-supplied oxygen and hydrogen peroxide, can achieve effective antimicrobial activity in vitro. However, there is a lack of effective nanomaterial delivery systems and suitable means for in vivo activation/enhancement of antimicrobial activity during bacterial infected skin wound treatment. In this study, we designed and prepared efficient ultrasound activable microneedles that effectively addressed the deficiencies mentioned above and established a new paradigm for efficient utilization of metal peroxide nanomaterials and ultrasound based strategies. Noticeably, copper peroxide nanoclusters/oxygen vacancy-rich porous titanium oxide nanosheets (CuO2/TiO2) integrated microneedle (CTMN) patch combines advantages of both sono-chemodynamic and sonothermal antibacterial therapy, achieving one of the most instant and effective antibacterial efficacy (>99.9999% in 5 min) in vivo reported till now.

Abstract
The emergence of multidrug-resistant bacteria has been deemed a global crisis that affects humans worldwide. Novel anti-infection strategies are desperately needed because of the limitations of conventional antibiotics. However, the increasing gap between clinical demand and antimicrobial treatment innovation, as well as the membrane permeability obstacle especially in gram-negative bacteria fearfully restrict the reformation of antibacterial strategy. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have the advantages of adjustable apertures, high drug-loading rates, tailorable structures, and superior biocompatibilities, enabling their utilization as drug delivery carriers in biotherapy applications. Additionally, the metal elements in MOFs are usually bactericidal. This article provides a review of the state-of-The-art design, the underlying antibacterial mechanisms and antibacterial applications of MOF- and MOF-based drug-loading materials. In addition, the existing problems and future perspectives of MOF- and MOF-based drug-loading materials are also discussed.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy is an alternative treatment mainly for cancer but also for bacterial infections. This treatment dates back to 1900 when a German medical school graduate Oscar Raab found a photodynamic effect while doing research for his doctoral dissertation with Professor Hermann von Tappeiner. Unexpectedly, Raab revealed that the toxicity of acridine on paramecium depends on the intensity of light in his laboratory. Photodynamic therapy is therefore based on the administration of a photosensitizer with subsequent light irradiation within the absorption maxima of this substance followed by reactive oxygen species formation and finally cell death. Although this treatment is not a novelty, there is an endeavor for various modifications to the therapy. For example, selectivity and efficiency of the photosensitizer, as well as irradiation with various types of light sources are still being modified to improve final results of the photodynamic therapy. The main aim of this review is to summarize anticancer and antibacterial modifications, namely various compounds, approaches, and techniques, to enhance the effectiveness of photodynamic therapy.

Abstract
Mitochondria play critical roles in the regulation of the proliferation and apoptosis of cancerous cells. Targeted induction of mitochondrial dysfunction in cancer cells by multifunctional nanosystems for cancer treatment has attracted increasing attention in the past few years. Numerous therapeutic nanosystems have been designed for precise tumor therapy by inducing mitochondrial dysfunction, including reducing adenosine triphosphate, breaking redox homeostasis, inhibiting glycolysis, regulating proteins, membrane potential depolarization, mtDNA damage, mitophagy dysregulation and so on. Understanding the mechanisms of mitochondrial dysfunction would be helpful for efficient treatment of diseases and accelerating the translation of these therapeutic strategies into the clinic. Then, various strategies to construct mitochondria-targeted nanosystems and induce mitochondrial dysfunction are summarized, and the recent research progress regarding precise tumor therapeutics is highlighted. Finally, the major challenges and an outlook in this rapidly developing field are discussed. This review is expected to inspire further development of novel mitochondrial dysfunction-based strategies for precise treatments of cancer and other human diseases.

Abstract
Nanozyme-based chemodynamic therapy (CDT) has shown tremendous potential in the treatment of bacterial infections. However, the CDT antibacterial efficacy is severely limited by the catalytic activity of nanozymes or the infection microenvironments such as insufficient hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and overexpressed glutathione (GSH). Herein, a versatile hybrid nanozyme (MoS2/CuO2) is rationally constructed by simply decorating ultrasmall CuO2 nanodots onto lamellar MoS2 platelets of hydrangea-like MoS2 nanocarrier via a covalent Cu-S bond. The MoS2/CuO2 nanozyme exhibits the peroxidase-mimic activity for catalytically converting H2O2 produced by acid-triggered decomposition of the decorated CuO2 into hydroxyl radical (•OH). Meanwhile, the MoS2/CuO2 can consume GSH overexpressed in the infection sites via redox reaction mediated by polyvalent transition metal ions (Cu2+ and Mo6+) for enhanced CDT. More importantly, MoS2 support can promote the conversion of Cu2+ to Cu+ by a co-catalytic reaction based on the Mo4+/Mo6+ redox couples, and provide photonic hyperthermia (PTT) to augment the peroxidase-mimic activity. The developed MoS2/CuO2 nanozymes possesses a desirable catalytic property, as well as a remarkably improved antibacterial efficiency both in vitro and in vivo. Taken together, this study proposes a synergetic multiple enhancement strategy to successfully construct the versatile hybrid nanozymes for intensive in vivo PTT/CDT dual-mode anti-infective therapy. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) has shown great potentialities in the treatment of bacterial infections, while its therapeutic efficiency is severely limited by the infection microenvironments such as insufficient hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and overexpressed glutathione (GSH). Here, we rationally construct a hybrid nanozyme (MoS2/CuO2) with peroxidase-like activity that can enhance CDT by regulating local microenvironments, that is, simultaneously self-supplying H2O2 and consuming GSH. Importantly, MoS2 support can promote the conversion of Cu2+ to Cu+ by the Mo4+/Mo6+ redox couples, and provide photonic hyperthermia (PTT) to augment the peroxidase-mimic activity. The developed MoS2/CuO2 shows desirable PTT/CDT dual-mode antibacterial efficacy both in vitro and in vivo. This study proposes a versatile hybrid nanozyme with multiple enhancement effects for intensive in vivo anti-infective therapy.

Acta Biomater 2022; 154:536-548. [PMID: 36241014 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2022.09.074] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/22/2022] [Revised: 09/25/2022] [Accepted: 09/29/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
Transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) is extensively used in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but its efficacy is usually limited to secondary tumor hypoxia and other progressive exacerbation of the abnormal tumor microenvironment (TME). Herein, we synthesized polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP)-coated CaO2 nanoparticles (CaO2 NPs) and applied them as a synergistic agent to improve the antitumor efficacy of TACE. After injection into the tumor, CaO2 NPs reacted with water to generate abundant oxygen, hydroxyl ions (OH-), and calcium ions (Ca2+), thereby relieving tumor hypoxia, neutralizing acid, and overloading Ca2+ to mediate antitumor effects. Moreover, the effect of chemotherapeutic drugs within the TACE was improved due to the modulated TME. CaO2 NPs efficiently regulated the TME and improved the antitumor effect of doxorubicin under hypoxia conditions in vitro. Compared to other groups, the TACE+CaO2 NPs group achieved the lowest tumor growth rate, highest tumor necrosis rate, lowest expression of histological markers associated with hypoxia and angiogenesis (HIF-α, VEGF, and CD31), and highest CD8+ T cell recruitment in vivo. Thus, these findings demonstrated that CaO2 NPs provide synergy for TACE therapy in the VX2 orthotopic rabbit liver cancer model, suggesting that they have a potential broad clinical application. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: The efficacy of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) for treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma is usually limited to secondary tumor hypoxia and other progressive exacerbation of the abnormal tumor microenvironment (TME). To address this issue, we synthesized CaO2 nanoparticles (CaO2 NPS) which would react with water to generate abundant oxygen, hydroxyl ions (OH-), and calcium ions (Ca2+), thereby relieving tumor hypoxia, neutralizing the acidic TME, and inducing Ca2+ overloading. The efficacy of CaO2 NPs in combination with TACE was investigated in an orthotopic rabbit liver cancer model, and the results showed the great synergetic antitumor effect of TACE and CaO2 NPs.

Abstract
The terrible morbidity and mortality of malignant tumors urgently require innovative therapeutics, especially for apoptosis-resistant tumors. Pyroptosis, a pro-inflammatory form of programmed cell death (PCD), is featured with pore formation in plasma membrane, cell swelling with giant bubbles, and leakage of cytoplasmic pro-inflammatory cytokines, which can remodel the tumor immune microenvironment by stimulating a "cold" tumor microenvironment to be an immunogenic "hot" tumor microenvironment, and consequently augment the therapeutic efficiency of malignant tumors. Benefiting from current advances in nanotechnology, nanomedicine is extensively applied to potentiate, enable, and augment pyroptosis for enhancing cancer-therapeutic efficacy and specificity. This review provides a concentrated summary and discussion of the most recent progress achieved in this emerging field, highlighting the nanomedicine-enabled/augmented specific pyroptosis strategy for favoring the construction of next-generation nanomedicines to efficiently induce PCD. It is highly expected that the further clinical translation of nanomedicine can be accelerated by inducing pyroptotic cell death based on bioactive nanomedicines.

Abstract
The proliferation and global expansion of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria have deepened the need to develop novel antimicrobials. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are regarded as promising antibacterial agents because of their broad-spectrum antibacterial activity and multifaceted mechanisms of action with non-specific targets. However, if AMPs are to be applied sustainably, knowledge of how they induce resistance in pathogenic bacteria must be mastered to avoid repeating the traditional antibiotic resistance mistakes currently faced. Furthermore, the evolutionary constraints on the acquisition of AMP resistance by microorganisms in the natural environment, such as functional compatibility and fitness trade-offs, inform the translational application of AMPs. Consequently, the shortcut to achieve sustainable utilization of AMPs is to uncover the evolutionary constraints of bacteria on AMP resistance in nature and find the tricks to exploit these constraints, such as applying AMP cocktails to minimize the efficacy of selection for resistance or combining nanomaterials to maximize the costs of AMP resistance. Altogether, this review dissects the benefits, challenges, and opportunities of utilizing AMPs against disease-causing bacteria, and highlights the use of AMP cocktails or nanomaterials to proactively address potential AMP resistance crises in the future.

Abstract
Artificial photocatalysis offers a clean approach for producing H2 O2 . However, the poor selectivity and activity of H2 O2 production hamper traditional industrial applications and emerging photodynamic therapy (PDT)/chemodynamic therapy (CDT). Herein, we report a C5 N2 photocatalyst with a conjugated C=N linkage for selective and efficient non-sacrificial H2 O2 production in both normoxic and hypoxic systems. The strengthened delocalization of π-electrons by linkers in C5 N2 downshifted the band position, thermodynamically eliminating side H2 evolution reaction and kinetically promoting water oxidation. As a result, C5 N2 had a competitive solar-to-chemical conversion efficiency of 0.55 % in overall H2 O2 production and exhibited by far the highest activity under hypoxic conditions (698 μM h-1 ). C5 N2 was further applied to hypoxic PDT/CDT with outstanding performance in apparent cancer cell death and synchronous bioimaging. The study sheds light on the photosynthesis of H2 O2 by carbon nitrides for health applications.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) is a promising hydroxyl radical (•OH)-mediated tumor therapeutic method with desirable tumor specificity and minimal side effects. However, the efficiency of CDT is restricted by the pH condition, insufficient H2O2 level, and overexpressed reductive glutathione (GSH), making it challenging to solve these problems simultaneously to improve the efficacy of CDT. Herein, a kind of polyvinylpyrrolidone-stabilized, sorafenib-loaded copper peroxide (CuO2-PVP-SRF) nanoparticle (NPs) was designed and developed for enhanced CDT against tumor cells through the synergetic pH-independent Fenton-like, H2O2 self-supplying, and GSH depletion strategy. The prepared CuO2-PVP-SRF NPs can be uptaken by 4T1 cells to specifically release Cu2+, H2O2, and SRF under acidic conditions. The intracellular GSH can be depleted by SRF-induced system xc- dysfunction and Cu2+-participated redox reaction, causing the inactivation of GPX4 and generating Cu+. A great amount of •OH was produced in this reducing capacity-disrupted condition by the Cu+-mediated Fenton-like reaction, causing cell apoptosis and lipid hydroperoxide accumulation-induced ferroptosis. They display an excellent 4T1 cell killing outcome through the improved •OH production capacity. The CuO2-PVP-SRF NPs display elevated therapeutic efficiency of CDT and show good promise in further tumor treatment applications.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is traditionally ineffective for deeply embedded tumors due to the poor penetration depth of the excitation light. Chemiluminescence resonance energy transfer (CRET) has emerged as a promising mode of PDT without external light. To date, related research has frequently used endogenous hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 ) and oxygen (O2 ) inside the solid tumor microenvironment to trigger CRET-mediated PDT. Unfortunately, this significantly restricts treatment efficacy and the development of further biomedical applications because of the limited amounts of endogenous H2 O2 and O2 . Herein, a nanohybrid (mSiO2 /CaO2 /CPPO/Ce6: mSCCC) nanoparticle (NP) is designed to achieve synergistic CRET-mediated PDT and calcium (Ca2+ )-overload-mediated therapy. The calcium peroxide (CaO2 ) formed inside mesoporous SiO2 (mSC) with the inclusion of the chemiluminescent agent (CPPO) and photosensitizer (Ce6) self-supplies H2 O2 , O2 , and Ca2+ allowing for the subsequent treatments. The Ce6 in mSCCC NPs is excited by chemical energy in situ following the supply of H2 O2 and O2 to produce singlet oxygen (1 O2 ). The nanohybrid NPs are coated with stearic acid to avoid decomposition during blood circulation through contact with aqueous environment. This nanohybrid shows promising performance in the generation of 1 O2 for external light-free PDT and the release of Ca2+ ions for Ca2+ -overloaded therapy against orthotopic hepatocellular carcinoma.

Abstract
Metal peroxides are key species involved in a range of critical biological and synthetic processes. Rare-earth (group III and the lanthanides; Sc, Y, La-Lu) peroxides have been implicated as reactive intermediates in catalysis; however, reactivity studies of isolated, structurally characterized rare-earth peroxides have been limited. Herein, we report the peroxide-selective (93-99% O22-) reduction of dioxygen (O2) at redox-inactive rare-earth triflates in methanol using a mild metallocene reductant, decamethylferrocene (Fc*). The first molecular praseodymium peroxide ([PrIII2(O22-)(18C6)2(EG)2][OTf]4; 18C6 = 18-crown-6, EG = ethylene glycol, -OTf = -O3SCF3; 2-Pr) was isolated and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and NMR spectroscopy. 2-Pr displays high thermal stability (120 °C, 50 mTorr), is protonated by mild organic acids [pKa1(MeOH) = 5.09 ± 0.23], and engages in electrophilic (e.g., oxygen atom transfer) and nucleophilic (e.g., phosphate-ester cleavage) reactivity. Our mechanistic studies reveal that the rate of oxygen reduction is dictated by metal-ion accessibility, rather than Lewis acidity, and suggest new opportunities for differentiated reactivity of redox-inactive metal ions by leveraging weak metal-ligand binding events preceding electron transfer.

Acta Biomater 2022; 145:390-402.

Abstract
The ability of solid peroxides to provide sustained release of both oxygen and hydrogen peroxide makes them potentially suitable for oxygen release or antibacterial applications. Most recent reports using solid peroxides to augment oxygen levels do so by compounding solid peroxide powders in polymers to retard the aqueous decomposition. Compounds with peroxidase activity may be added to reduce hydrogen peroxide toxicity. Peroxides are rarely pure and are mixed with oxide and themselves decompose to form hydroxides in water. Therefore, even if buffering strategies are used, locally the pH at the surface of aqueously immersed peroxide particles is inevitably alkaline. Since pH affects the decomposition of peroxides and hydrogen peroxide stability, this study compared for the first-time the aqueous decomposition products of hydrogen and inorganic peroxides that are in use or have been used for medical applications of have been evaluated preclinically; calcium peroxide (CaO2), magnesium peroxide (MgO2), zinc peroxide (ZnO2), sodium percarbonate (Na2CO3.1.5H2O2) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Since plasma can be approximated to be carbonate buffered phosphate solution, we maintained pH using carbonate and phosphate buffers and compared results with citrate buffers. For a given peroxide compound, we identified not only a strong effect of pH but also of buffer composition on the extent to which oxygen and hydrogen peroxide formation occurred. The influence of buffer composition was not previously appreciated, thereby establishing in vitro parameters for better design of intentional release of specific decomposition species. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: This paper compares for the first time the aqueous decomposition products oxygen and hydrogen peroxide of solid peroxy compounds of metal cations, (calcium, magnesium, sodium and zinc) across a pH range that could feasibly be found in the body, (pH 5,7, 9) either physiologically or pathologically. We find that in addition to pH, buffer composition is also a critically important factor, making translation from in vitro models challenging. Cytotoxicity was related to hydrogen peroxide release, alkalinity and in the case of zinc peroxide to the cation itself. In vitro and preclinical studies generally report release data from polymer-peroxide composites and rarely compare peroxides with one another. Together our data provide guidance for oxygen and ROS delivery from these inorganic materials.

Abstract
In this study, zincperoxide (ZnO2) with broad energy gap was firstly used for visible-light-induced photocatalytic degradation of tetracycline (TC) and inactivation of Escherichia coli (E. coli). A small amount of ZnO2 (10 mg) could efficiently degrade 100 mL of 50 mg/L TC in a wide pH range (4-12), and the degradation performance was rarely suppressed by common matrix species and natural water sources. Also, 100 mg/L ZnO2 could inactivate around 7-log E. coli cells within 60 min under visible-light irradiation. Quenching experiments and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) results confirmed that superoxide radical (•O2-) and singlet oxygen (1O2) were the main reactive oxygen species (ROS), which were attributed to the self-sensitization of TC and the photoexcitation of released H2O2 under the catalysis of Zn(OH)2 from the hydrolysis of partial ZnO2, respectively. The pathways of TC degradation and processes of visible-light-induced TC degradation and E. coli inactivation were proposed and deduced in detail. This work presented the enhanced visible-light photocatalytic activities of ZnO2 for antibiotic degradation and bacterial inactivation, and provided a deep insight into the mechanisms of visible-light-induced TC degradation andE. coli inactivation over ZnO2.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS)-induced cell apoptosis has emerged as an efficient strategy for cancer therapy. However, tumor hypoxia and insufficient amounts of endogenous hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in the tumor microenvironment are currently the main limitations of photodynamic therapy (PDT) and chemodynamic therapy (CDT). Moreover, the glutathione (GSH) scavenging effect on ROS further hinders the efficiency of ROS-mediated therapy. Here, a CaO2-based nanosystem (named as CF@CO@HC) with ROS self-amplification and GSH-depletion abilities was developed by a bottom-up approach. This hybrid nanoparticle consisted of a photosensitizer-doped calcium peroxide (CaO2) core (CaO2-FM), a hybrid organosilica framework (Cu-ONS) incorporated with Fenton reagents (Cu2+) and tetrasulfide groups, and a local hydrophobic cage (HC) shell. The photosensitizer was fluorescein derivative 4-FM with a thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) property. The HC shell was built to protect the CaO2 and the photosensitizer from being attacked by water. Upon being internalized into cancer cells, the nanosystem was decomposed through the reduction reactions of Cu2+ and the tetrasulfide bond-doped silica shell by GSH, thus releasing Cu+ for Cu+-mediated CDT. Meanwhile, the exposed CaO2-FM can react with H2O to liberate photosensitizer 4-FM and generate H2O2 and O2 to overcome barriers in CDT and PDT. Thus, our study provided an open-source and reduced-expenditure strategy via GSH depletion and ROS self-amplification behaviors for ROS generation and significantly achieved an improved synergistic PDT/CDT for cancers.

Abstract
The aim of this investigation was to evaluate the biological properties of cotton-zinc composites. A coating of zinc (Zn) on a cotton fabric was successfully obtained by a DC magnetron sputtering system using a metallic Zn target (99.9%). The new composite was characterized using scanning electron microscopy/energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM/EDS), UV/Vis transmittance, and atomic absorption spectrometry with flame excitation (FAAS). The composite was tested for microbial activity against colonies of Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) and Gram-negative (Escherichia coli) bacteria and antifungal activity against Aspergillus niger and Chaetomium globosum fungal mold species as model microorganisms. Cytotoxicity screening of the tested modified material was carried out on BALB/3T3 clone mouse fibroblasts. The SEM/EDS and FAAS tests showed good uniformity of zinc content on a large surface of the composite. The conducted research showed the possibility of using the magnetron sputtering technique as a zero-waste method for producing antimicrobial textile composites.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) based on Fenton or Fenton-like reactions is an emerging cancer treatment that can both effectively fight cancer and reduce side effects on normal cells and tissues, and it has made important progress in cancer treatment. The catalytic efficiency of Fenton nanocatalysts(F-NCs) directly determines the anticancer effect of CDT. To learn more about this new type of therapy, this review summarizes the recent development of F-NCs that are responsive to tumor microenvironment (TME), and detailedly introduces their material design and action mechanism. Based on the deficiencies of them, some effective strategies to significantly improve the anticancer efficacy of F-NCs are highlighted, which mainly includes increasing the temperature and hydrogen peroxide concentration, reducing the pH, glutathione (GSH) content, and the dependence of F-NCs on acidic environment in the TME. It also discusses the differences between the effect of multi-mode therapy with external energy (light and ultrasound) and the single-mode therapy of CDT. Finally, the challenges encountered in the treatment process, the future development direction of F-NCs, and some suggestions are analyzed to promote CDT to enter the clinical stage in the near future.

Abstract
Recently, various metal peroxide nanomaterials have drawn increasing attention as an efficient hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) self-supplying agent for enhanced tumor therapy. However, a single kind of metal peroxide is insufficient to achieve more effective antitumor performance. Here, a hyaluronic acid modified calcium and copper peroxides nanocomposite has been synthesized by a simple one-step strategy. After effective accumulation at the tumor site due to the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect and specific recognition of hyaluronate acid with CD44 protein on the surface of tumor cells, plenty of Ca2+, Cu2+, and H2O2 can be simultaneously released in acid and hyaluronidase overexpressed tumor microenvironment (TME), generating abundant hydroxyl radical through enhanced Fenton-type reaction between Cu2+ and self-supplying H2O2 with the assistance of glutathione depletion. Overloaded Ca2+ can lead to mitochondria injury and thus enhance the oxidative stress in tumor cells. Moreover, an unbalanced calcium transport channel caused by oxidative stress can further promote tumor calcification and necrosis, which is generally defined as ion-interference therapy. As a result, the synergistic effect of Fenton-like reaction by Cu2+ and mitochondria dysfunction by Ca2+ in ROS generation is performed. Therefore, a TME-responsive calcium and copper peroxides nanocomposite based on one-step integration has been successfully established and exhibits a more satisfactory antitumor efficiency than any single kind of metal peroxide.

Abstract
Metal peroxide nanoparticles designed to elevate the oxidative stress are considered a promising nanotherapeutics in biomedical applications, including chemotherapy, photodynamic therapy, and bacterial disinfection. However, their lack of specificity towards the therapeutic target can cause toxic side effects to healthy tissues. Here, silver peroxide nanoparticles (Ag2 O2 NPs) capable of controlled reactive oxygen species (ROS) release are synthesized. The release of bactericidal Ag+ ions and ROS is strictly regulated by external stimuli of ultrasound (US) and near-infrared (NIR) light. In vitro and in vivo investigations show that the Ag2 O2 NPs present enhanced antibacterial and antibiofilm capabilities with a killing efficiency >99.9999% in 10 min, significantly accelerate multi-drug resistant Staphylococcus aureus infected skin wound closure with excellent cytocompatibility and hemocompatibility. This work not only provides the first paradigm for fabricating silver peroxide nanoparticle but also introduces a highly efficient noninvasive and safe therapeutic modality for combating bacterial infectious diseases.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) is widely explored for tumor-specific therapy by converting endogenous H2O2 to lethal ·OH to destroy cancer cells. However, ·OH scavenging by glutathione (GSH) and insufficient intratumoral H2O2 levels seriously hinder the application of CDT. Herein, we reported the fabrication of copper ion-doped ZIF-8 loaded with gold nanozymes and doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) for the chemotherapy and CDT synergistic treatment of tumors with the assistance of tumor microenvironment (TME)-activated fluorescence imaging. The Cu2+-doped ZIF-8 shell was gradually degraded to release DOX and gold nanoclusters responding to the acidic TME. The fluorescence signal of the tumor region was acquired after the quenched fluorescence of the gold nanoclusters by Cu2+ and DOX by aggregation-induced quenching was turned on because of the interaction of GSH with Cu2+ and the release of free DOX. The Cu2+ ions could deplete the GSH via redox reactions and the generated Cu+ could convert internal H2O2 to ·OH for tumor CDT. The chemotherapeutic effect of DOX was strengthened through drug efflux inhibition and drug sensitivity increase due to the consumption of GSH and ·OH burst. Moreover, DOX could raise the level of H2O2 and augment the effect of CDT. In addition, the fluorescent gold nanoclusters not only served as a peroxidase to convert H2O2 to ·OH but also employed as an oxidase to consume GSH, resulting in the amplification of chemotherapy and CDT. This work presents an approach to construct tumor microenvironment-activated theranostic probes without external stimuli and to achieve the tumor elimination through cascade reactions and synergistic treatment.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate an antimicrobial and degradable composite material consisting of melt-blown poly(lactic acid) nonwoven fabrics, alginate, and zinc. This paper describes the method of preparation and the characterization of the physicochemical and antimicrobial properties of the new fibrous composite material. The procedure consists of fabrication of nonwoven fabric and two steps of dip-coating modification: (1) impregnation of nonwoven samples in the solution of alginic sodium salt and (2) immersion in a solution of zinc (II) chloride. The characterization and analysis of new material included scanning electron microscopy (SEM), specific surface area (SSA), and total/average pore volume (BET). The polylactide/alginate/Zn fibrous composite were subjected to microbial activity tests against colonies of Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus), Gram-negative (Escherichia coli) bacterial strains, and the following fungal strains: Aspergillus niger van Tieghem and Chaetomium globosum. These results lay a technical foundation for the development and potential application of new composite as an antibacterial/antifungal material in biomedical areas.

Abstract
Various physiological characteristics of the tumor microenvironment (TME), such as hypoxia, overexpression of glutathione (GSH) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), and mild acidity, can severely reduce the efficacy of many cancer therapies. Altering the redox balance of the TME and increasing oxidative stress can accordingly enhance the efficacy of tumor therapy. Herein, we developed a bismuth-based Cu2+-doped BiOCl nanotherapeutic platform, BCHN, able to self-supply H2O2 for TME-regulated chemodynamic therapy (CDT) combined with sensitized radiotherapy (RT). BCHN released H2O2 and consumed GSH to degrade the composite in the slightly acidic TME, and generated hydroxyl radicals (•OH) via a Fenton-like reaction catalyzed by copper ions, to achieve oxidative stress-enhanced CDT. The Fenton-like reaction also catalyzed H2O2 to produce O2 to relieve tumor hypoxia, and combined with the X-ray-blocking property of bismuth to realize TME-enhanced radiotherapy. Synergistic CDT/RT has previously been shown to effectively inhibit tumor cell proliferation and achieve effective tumor control. The current results demonstrated a highly efficient multifunctional bio-degradable nanoplatform for oncotherapy. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Tumor microenvironment-modulated synergy of radiotherapy and chemodynamic therapy is conducive to rapid tumor ablation. Based on this principle, we fabricated a biodegradable BiOCl-based nanocomposite, BCHN. By supplying H2O2, a Fenton-like reaction generated •OH and O2 catalyzed by copper ions, and consumed glutathione to biodegrade the composite. Overall, these actions increased tumor oxidative stress and realized the synergistic anti-tumor actions of chemodynamic therapy combined with bismuth-based sensitization radiotherapy. This strategy thus provides a unique approach to oncology therapy.

Abstract
Recently, enzyme dynamic therapy (EDT) has drawn much attention as a new type of dynamic therapy. However, the selection of suitable nanocarriers to deliver chloroperoxidase (CPO) and enhancement of the level of hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 ) in the tumor microenvironment (TME) are critical factors for improving the efficiency of EDT. In this study, a rapidly decomposing nanocomposite is designed using tetra-sulfide-bond-incorporating dendritic mesoporous organosilica (DMOS) as a nanocarrier, followed by loading CPO and sodium-hyaluronate-modified calcium peroxide nanoparticles (CaO2 -HA NPs). The nanocomposite can effectively generate singlet oxygen (1 O2 ) for tumor therapy without any exogenous stimulus via trimodal-enhanced EDT, including DMOS-induced depletion of glutathione (GSH), H2 O2 compensation from CaO2 -HA NPs in mildly acidic TME, and oxidative stress caused by overloading of Ca2+ . As tetra-sulfide bonds are sensitive to GSH, DMOS can generate hydrogen sulfide (H2 S) gas as a new kind of H2 S gas nanoreactor. Additionally, the overloading of Ca2+ can cause tumor calcification to accelerate in vivo tumor necrosis and promote computed tomography imaging efficacy. Therefore, a novel H2 S gas, EDT, and Ca2+ -interference combined therapy strategy is developed.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS)-induced nanosystems represent one of the most essential, efficient, and encouraging nanobactericides for eliminating bacterial infection concerning the increasing resistance threats of existing antibiotics. Among them, Fenton-type metal peroxide nanoparticles are exciting nanomaterials with intriguing physiochemical properties, yet the study of this antimicrobial agent is still in its infancy. Herein, a robust pH-responsive Fenton nanosystem is constructed by the assembly of copper peroxide nanodots in pomegranate-like mesoporous silica nanoshells (CuO2@SiO2) that are capable of self-supplying H2O2 and sustainably generating O2. The enhanced antimicrobial performance is attributed to the pH responsiveness and excellent Fenton catalytic activity through either the Cu2+-catalyzed conversion of H2O2 to detrimental ROS under acid treatment or in situ O2 evolution in neutral media. Moreover, in vitro and in vivo investigations demonstrate that this nanocomposite can exhibit boosted antimicrobial capabilities and can significantly accelerate skin wound closure, while retaining outstanding cytocompatibility and hemocompatibility. Given its excellent physicochemical and antimicrobial properties, the broad application of this nanocomposite in bacteria-associated wound management is anticipated.

Abstract
Ischemia and hypoxia in the bone defect area remain an intractable problem when treating large bone defects. Thus, oxygen-releasing biomaterials have been widely researched in recent years. Magnesium peroxide (MgO2) can release oxygen (O2), and magnesium ions (Mg2+), simultaneously, which is seen to have significant potential in bone substitutes. In this study, we used 3D printing technology to fabricate a MgO2-contained composite scaffold, which was composed of polycaprolactone (PCL), beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) and magnesium peroxide (MgO2). Physical properties and O2/Mg2+ releasing behavior of the scaffold were studied. Then, we evaluated the effects of the scaffold on cell survival, proliferation, migration, adhesion and osteogenic differentiation by the co-culture of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and scaffold under normoxia and hypoxia in vitro. Finally, the osteogenic properties of the scaffold in vivo were evaluated via the rat femoral condylar bone defect model. The PCL/β-TCP/MgO2 scaffold showed good mechanical properties and sustained O2 and Mg2+ release for about three weeks. Meanwhile, the scaffold showed appreciable promotion on the survival, proliferation, migration and osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs under hypoxia compared with control groups. The results of imaging studies and histological analysis showed that implantation of PCL/β-TCP/MgO2 scaffold could promote seed cell survival and significantly increased new bone formation. In sum, the PCL/β-TCP/MgO2 scaffold is promising with great potential for treating large bone defects.
