Abstract
Since the discovery of ferromagnetic nanoparticles Fe3O4 that exhibit enzyme-like activity in 2007, the research on nanoenzymes has made significant progress. With the in-depth study of various nanoenzymes and the rapid development of related nanotechnology, nanoenzymes have emerged as a promising alternative to natural enzymes. Within nanozymes, there is a category of metal-based single-atom nanozymes that has been rapidly developed due to low cast, convenient preparation, long storage, less immunogenicity, and especially higher efficiency. More importantly, single-atom nanozymes possess the capacity to scavenge reactive oxygen species through various mechanisms, which is beneficial in the tissue repair process. Herein, this paper systemically highlights the types of metal single-atom nanozymes, their catalytic mechanisms, and their recent applications in tissue repair. The existing challenges are identified and the prospects of future research on nanozymes composed of metallic nanomaterials are proposed. We hope this review will illuminate the potential of single-atom nanozymes in tissue repair, encouraging their sequential clinical translation.

Abstract
Inflammatory skin disorders can cause chronic scarring and functional impairments, posing a significant burden on patients and the healthcare system. Conventional therapies, such as corticosteroids and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, are limited in efficacy and associated with adverse effects. Recently, nanozyme (NZ)-based hydrogels have shown great promise in addressing these challenges. NZ-based hydrogels possess unique therapeutic abilities by combining the therapeutic benefits of redox nanomaterials with enzymatic activity and the water-retaining capacity of hydrogels. The multifaceted therapeutic effects of these hydrogels include scavenging reactive oxygen species and other inflammatory mediators modulating immune responses toward a pro-regenerative environment and enhancing regenerative potential by triggering cell migration and differentiation. This review highlights the current state of the art in NZ-engineered hydrogels (NZ@hydrogels) for anti-inflammatory and skin regeneration applications. It also discusses the underlying chemo-mechano-biological mechanisms behind their effectiveness. Additionally, the challenges and future directions in this ground, particularly their clinical translation, are addressed. The insights provided in this review can aid in the design and engineering of novel NZ-based hydrogels, offering new possibilities for targeted and personalized skin-care therapies.

Towards nanostructured red-ox active bio-interfaces: Bioinspired antibacterial hybrid melanin-CeO 2 nanoparticles for radical homeostasis. BIOMATERIALS ADVANCES 2023; 153:213558. [PMID: 37467646 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioadv.2023.213558] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/04/2023] [Revised: 05/29/2023] [Accepted: 07/08/2023] [Indexed: 07/21/2023]
Abstract
Redox-active nano-biointerfaces are gaining weight in the field of regenerative medicine since they can act as enzymes in regulating physiological processes and enabling cell homeostasis, as well as the defense against pathogen aggression. In particular, cerium oxide nanoparticles (CeO2 NPs) stand as intriguing enzyme-mimicking nanoplatforms, owing to the reversible Ce+3/Ce+4 surface oxidation state. Moreover, surface functionalization leads to higher catalytic activity and selectivity, as well as more tunable enzyme-mimicking performances. Conjugation with melanin is an adequate strategy to boost and enrich CeO2 NPs biological features, because of melanin redox properties accounting for intrinsic antioxidant, antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory power. Herein, hybrid Melanin/CeO2 nanostructures were designed by simply coating the metal-oxide nanoparticles with melanin chains, obtained in-situ through ligand-to-metal charge transfer mechanism, according to a bioinspired approach. Obtained hybrid nanostructures underwent detailed physico-chemical characterization. Morphological and textural features were investigated through TEM, XRD and N2 physisorption. The nature of nanoparticle-melanin interaction was analyzed through FTIR, UV-vis and EPR spectroscopy. Melanin-coated hybrid nanostructures exhibited a relevant antioxidant activity, confirmed by a powerful quenching effect for DPPH radical, reaching 81 % inhibition at 33 μg/mL. A promising anti-inflammatory efficacy of the melanin-coated hybrid nanostructures was validated through a significant inhibition of BSA denaturation after 3 h. Meanwhile, the enzyme-mimicking activity was corroborated by a prolonged peroxidase activity after 8 h at 100 μg/mL and a relevant catalase-like action, by halving the H2O2 level in 30 min at 50 μg/mL. Antimicrobial assays attested that conjugation with melanin dramatically boosted CeO2 biocide activity against both Gram (-) and Gram (+) strains. Cytocompatibility tests demonstrated that the melanin coating not only enhanced the CeO2 nanostructures biomimicry, resulting in improved cell viability for human dermal fibroblast cells (HDFs), but mostly they proved that Melanin-CeO2 NPs were able to control the oxidative stress, modulating the production of nitrite and reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels in HDFs, under physiological conditions. Such remarkable outcomes make hybrid melanin-CeO2 nanozymes, promising redox-active interfaces for regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Nanozymes are nanoparticles with intrinsic enzyme-mimicking properties that have become more prevalent because of their ability to outperform conventional enzymes by overcoming their drawbacks related to stability, cost, and storage. Nanozymes have the potential to manipulate active sites of natural enzymes, which is why they are considered promising candidates to function as enzyme mimetics. Several microscopy- and spectroscopy-based techniques have been used for the characterization of nanozymes. To date, a wide range of nanozymes, including catalase, oxidase, peroxidase, and superoxide dismutase, have been designed to effectively mimic natural enzymes. The activity of nanozymes can be controlled by regulating the structural and morphological aspects of the nanozymes. Nanozymes have multifaceted benefits, which is why they are exploited on a large scale for their application in the biomedical sector. The versatility of nanozymes aids in monitoring and treating cancer, other neurodegenerative diseases, and metabolic disorders. Due to the compelling advantages of nanozymes, significant research advancements have been made in this area. Although a wide range of nanozymes act as potent mimetics of natural enzymes, their activity and specificities are suboptimal, and there is still room for their diversification for analytical purposes. Designing diverse nanozyme systems that are sensitive to one or more substrates through specialized techniques has been the subject of an in-depth study. Hence, we believe that stimuli-responsive nanozymes may open avenues for diagnosis and treatment by fusing the catalytic activity and intrinsic nanomaterial properties of nanozyme systems.

Abstract
Diabetic ulcer is a severe complication of diabetes that can lead to amputation due to the overproduction of pro-inflammatory factors and reactive oxygen species (ROS). In this study, a composite nanofibrous dressing was developed by combining Prussian blue nanocrystals (PBNCs) and heparin sodium (Hep) through electrospinning, electrospraying, and chemical deposition. The nanofibrous dressing (PPBDH) was designed to take advantage of the excellent pro-inflammatory factor-adsorbing capability of Hep and the ROS-scavenging capabilities of PBNCs, resulting in synergistic treatment. It is worth noting that the nanozymes were firmly anchored to the fiber surfaces through slight polymer swelling caused by the solvent during electrospinning, thereby guaranteeing the preservation of the enzyme-like activity levels of PBNCs. The PPBDH dressing was found to be effective in reducing intracellular ROS levels, protecting cells from ROS-induced apoptosis, and capturing excessive pro-inflammatory factors, including chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β). Furthermore, a chronic wound healing evaluation conducted in vivo demonstrated that the PPBDH dressing was able to effectively alleviate the inflammatory response and accelerate wound healing. This research presents an innovative approach to fabricate nanozyme hybrid nanofibrous dressings, which have great potential in accelerating the healing of chronic and refractory wounds with uncontrolled inflammation.

Abstract
Antioxidant enzymes such as catalase, superoxide dismutase, and glutathione peroxidase play important roles in the inhibition of oxidative-damage-related pathological diseases. However, natural antioxidant enzymes face some limitations, including low stability, high cost, and less flexibility. Recently, antioxidant nanozymes have emerged as promising materials to replace natural antioxidant enzymes for their stability, cost savings, and flexible design. The present review firstly discusses the mechanisms of antioxidant nanozymes, focusing on catalase-, superoxide dismutase-, and glutathione peroxidase-like activities. Then, we summarize the main strategies for the manipulation of antioxidant nanozymes based on their size, morphology, composition, surface modification, and modification with a metal-organic framework. Furthermore, the applications of antioxidant nanozymes in medicine and healthcare are also discussed as potential biological applications. In brief, this review provides useful information for the further development of antioxidant nanozymes, offering opportunities to improve current limitations and expand the application of antioxidant nanozymes.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disorder associated with inflammation, functional disability, and high socioeconomic costs. The development of effective therapies against inflammatory OA has been limited owing to its complex and multifactorial nature. The efficacy of Prussian blue nanozymes coated with Pluronic (PPBzymes), US Food and Drug Administration-approved components, and their mechanisms of action have been described in this study, and PPBzymes have been characterized as a new OA therapeutic. Spherical PPBzymes were developed via nucleation and stabilization of Prussian blue inside Pluronic micelles. A uniformly distributed diameter of approximately 204 nm was obtained, which was maintained after storage in an aqueous solution and biological buffer. This indicates that PPBzymes are stable and could have biomedical applications. In vitro data revealed that PPBzymes promote cartilage generation and reduce cartilage degradation. Moreover, intra-articular injections with PPBzymes into mouse joints revealed their long-term stability and effective uptake into the cartilage matrix. Furthermore, intra-articular PPBzymes injections attenuated cartilage degradation without exhibiting cytotoxicity toward the synovial membrane, lungs, and liver. Notably, based on proteome microarray data, PPBzymes specifically block the JNK phosphorylation, which modulates inflammatory OA pathogenesis. These findings indicate that PPBzymes might represent a biocompatible and effective nanotherapeutic for obstructing JNK phosphorylation.

Abstract
The complexity and overall burden of Parkinson's disease (PD) require new pharmacological approaches to counteract the symptomatology while reducing the progressive neurodegeneration of affected dopaminergic neurons. Since the pathophysiological signature of PD is characterized by the loss of physiological levels of dopamine (DA) and the misfolding and aggregation of the alpha-synuclein (α-syn) protein, new proposals seek to restore the lost DA and inhibit the progressive damage derived from pathological α-syn and its impact in terms of oxidative stress. In this line, nanomedicine (the medical application of nanotechnology) has achieved significant advances in the development of nanocarriers capable of transporting and delivering basal state DA in a controlled manner in the tissues of interest, as well as highly selective catalytic nanostructures with enzyme-like properties for the elimination of reactive oxygen species (responsible for oxidative stress) and the proteolysis of misfolded proteins. Although some of these proposals remain in their early stages, the deepening of our knowledge concerning the pathological processes of PD and the advances in nanomedicine could endow for the development of potential treatments for this still incurable condition. Therefore, in this paper, we offer: (i) a brief summary of the most recent findings concerning the physiology of motor regulation and (ii) the molecular neuropathological processes associated with PD, together with (iii) a recapitulation of the current progress in controlled DA release by nanocarriers and (iv) the design of nanozymes, catalytic nanostructures with oxidoreductase-, chaperon, and protease-like properties. Finally, we conclude by describing the prospects and knowledge gaps to overcome and consider as research into nanotherapies for PD continues, especially when clinical translations take place.

Abstract
Therapeutic interventions of hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury to attenuate liver dysfunction or multiple organ failure following liver surgery and transplantation remain limited. Here we present an innovative strategy by integrating a platinum nanoantioxidant and inducible nitric oxide synthase into the zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 based hybrid nanoreactor for effective prevention of ischemia-reperfusion injury. We show that platinum nanoantioxidant can scavenge excessive reactive oxygen species at the injury site and meanwhile generate oxygen for subsequent synthesis of nitric oxide under the catalysis of nitric oxide synthase. We find that such cascade reaction successfully achieves dual protection for the liver through reactive oxygen species clearance and nitric oxide regulation, enabling reduction of oxidative stress, inhibition of macrophage activation and neutrophil recruitment, and ensuring suppression of proinflammatory cytokines. The current work establishes a proof of concept of multifunctional nanotherapeutics against ischemia-reperfusion injury, which may provide a promising intervention solution in clinical use.

Abstract
Manganese ferrite nanoparticles display interesting features in bioimaging and catalytic therapies. They have been recently used in theranostics as contrast agents in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and as catalase-mimicking nanozymes for hypoxia alleviation. These promising applications encourage the development of novel synthetic procedures to enhance the bioimaging and catalytic properties of these nanomaterials simultaneously. Herein, a cost-efficient synthetic microwave method is developed to manufacture ultrasmall manganese ferrite nanoparticles as advanced multimodal contrast agents in MRI and positron emission tomography (PET), and improved nanozymes. Such a synthetic method allows doping ferrites with Mn in a wide stoichiometric range (Mnx Fe3-x O4 , 0.1 ≤ x ≤ 2.4), affording a library of nanoparticles with different magnetic relaxivities and catalytic properties. These tuned magnetic properties give rise to either positive or dual-mode MRI contrast agents. On the other hand, higher levels of Mn doping enhance the catalytic efficiency of the resulting nanozymes. Finally, through their intracellular catalase-mimicking activity, these ultrasmall manganese ferrite nanoparticles induce an unprecedented tumor growth inhibition in a breast cancer murine model. All of these results show the robust characteristics of these nanoparticles for nanobiotechnological applications.

Abstract
Self-assembly in nature creates matter with complex structures and unpredictable designs; disordered building blocks spontaneously organize into ordered structures to achieve specific functions. Self-assembly begins to play an important role in the design of advanced drug delivery as well. Though, the behavior of 'dynamic nanoassembly-based drug delivery systems' (DNDDS) in biological media and cells remains poorly understood, while this is highly critical for controlling spatiotemporal drug release from DNDDS in vivo. To deepen the understanding of tailor-made DNDDS, this contribution in the Oration - New Horizons section of the Journal of controlled Release aims to highlight nature-inspired designs, construction principles, and controllable functionalities of DNDDS and how they are triggered by endogenous and exogenous stimuli. Furthermore, biomedical applications of tailor-made DNDDS for accurate diagnosis and precise treatment of diseases, including tumors, neurological diseases, injuries and infections are discussed. Finally, current challenges and future perspectives of DNDDS are briefly outlined.

Abstract
Cascade biocatalytic reactions involving multiple antioxidative enzymes are necessary in living cells to regulate cellular metabolism and redox homeostasis. Substantial efforts have been made to construct cascade reactions through engineered enzyme mimics to improve intracellular metabolic flux, especially under pathophysiological conditions. Here, we show that MoS2 nanozymes exhibit activities of four major cellular cascade antioxidant enzymes, including superoxide dismutase, catalase, peroxidase, and glutathione peroxidase. Meanwhile, MoS2 nanozymes attenuate electron transfer in cytochrome c/H2O2 to ameliorate the inherent antioxidant defense system under stress conditions. Thus, MoS2 nanozymes function as a self-cascade platform to inhibit intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) production by modulating mitochondrial function and scavenging abundant ROS through their intrinsic antioxidant capacity. Density functional theory calculations reveal the underlying mechanisms of the intracellular environment-dependent catalase-like activity of MoS2 nanozymes. Furthermore, we find that the MoS2 nanozymes play a cytoprotective role in cells and significantly improve the treatment outcomes in a hepatic fibrosis mouse model. These results demonstrate the ROS-scavenging capacity of a single-component MoS2 nanozyme-based cascade reaction system and reveal the in-depth mechanism, which may advance the development of nanozyme-based antioxidative agents.

Abstract
The past decades have witnessed an increased incidence of neurological disorders (NDs) such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, ischemic stroke, and epilepsy, which significantly lower patients' life quality and increase the economic and social burden. Recently, nanomedicines composed of imaging and/or therapeutic agents have been explored to diagnose and/or treat NDs due to their enhanced bioavailability, blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability, and targeting capacity. Intriguingly, dynamic nanoassemblies self-assembled from functional nanoparticles to simultaneously interfere with multiple pathogenic substances and pathological changes, have been regarded as one of the foremost candidates to improve the diagnostic and therapeutic efficacy of NDs. To help readers better understand this emerging field, in this review, the pathogenic mechanism of different types of NDs is briefly introduced, then the functional nanoparticles used as building blocks in the construction of dynamic nanoassemblies for NDs theranostics are summarized. Furthermore, dynamic nanoassemblies that can actively cross the BBB to target brain lesions, sensitively and efficiently diagnose or treat NDs, and effectively promote neuroregeneration are highlighted. Finally, we conclude with our perspectives on the future development in this field.

Abstract
Natural enzymes are efficient and versatile biocatalysts but suffer in their environmental tolerance and catalytic stability. As artificial enzymes, nanozymes can improve the catalytic stability, but it is still a challenge to achieve high catalytic activity. Here, we employed atomic engineering to build the artificial enzyme named Au24Ag1 clusterzyme that hosts an ultrahigh catalytic activity as well as strong physiological stability via atom manipulation. The designed Au24Ag1 clusterzyme activates the Ag-S active site via lattice expansion in the oligomer atom layer, showing an antioxidant property 72 times higher than that of natural antioxidant Trolox. Enzyme-mimicked studies find that Au24Ag1 clusterzyme exhibits high catalase-like (CAT-like) and glutathione peroxidase-like (GPx-like) activity with a maximum reaction rate of 68.9 and 17.8 μM/min, respectively. Meanwhile, the unique catalytic landscape exhibits distinctive reactions against inflammation by inhibiting the cytokines at an early stage in the brain. Atomic engineering of clusterzymes provides a powerful and attractive platform with satisfactory atomic dispersion for tailoring biocatalysts freely at the atomic level.

Abstract
The development of advanced composite biomaterials combining the versatility and biodegradability of polymers and the unique characteristics of metal oxide nanoparticles unveils new horizons in emerging biomedical applications, including tissue regeneration, drug delivery and gene therapy, theranostics and medical imaging. Nanocrystalline cerium(IV) oxide, or nanoceria, stands out from a crowd of other metal oxides as being a truly unique material, showing great potential in biomedicine due to its low systemic toxicity and numerous beneficial effects on living systems. The combination of nanoceria with new generations of biomedical polymers, such as PolyHEMA (poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate)-based hydrogels, electrospun nanofibrous polycaprolactone or natural-based chitosan or cellulose, helps to expand the prospective area of applications by facilitating their bioavailability and averting potential negative effects. This review describes recent advances in biomedical polymeric material practices, highlights up-to-the-minute cerium oxide nanoparticle applications, as well as polymer-nanoceria composites, and aims to address the question: how can nanoceria enhance the biomedical potential of modern polymeric materials?
