Abstract
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as a reactive oxygen species produced by cellular metabolism can be used in antitumor therapy. However, the concentration of intracellular H2O2 limits its application. Some materials could enhance the concentration of intracellular H2O2 to strengthen antitumor therapy. In this review, the recent advances in H2O2-supplying materials in terms of promoting intracellular H2O2 production and exogenous H2O2 supply are summarized. Then the mechanism of H2O2-supplying materials for tumor therapy is discussed from three aspects: reconstruction of the tumor hypoxia microenvironment, enhancement of oxidative stress, and the intrinsic anti-tumor ability of H2O2-supplying materials. In addition, the application of H2O2-supplying materials for tumor therapy is discussed. Finally, the future of H2O2-supplying materials is presented. This review aims to provide a novel idea for the application of H2O2-supplying materials in tumor therapy.

Abstract
Development of nanomaterials with multiple enzymatic activities via a facile approach receives growing interests in recent years. Although peptide self-assembling provides an effective approach for the construction of biomimetic materials in recent years, fabrication of artificial enzymes from self-assembling peptides with multiple catalytic activities for anticancer therapy is still a challenge. Here, we report a simple method to prepare nanocatalysts with multienzyme-like activities from self-assembling peptides containing ATCUN copper-binding motifs. With the aid of the coordination interactions between the ATCUN motif and Cu(II) ions, these peptides could perform supramolecular self-assembly to form nanomaterials with biomimetic peroxidase, ascorbate oxidase and glutathione peroxidase activities. Moreover, these trienzyme-like effects can elevate oxidative stress levels and suppress the antioxidative capability of cancer cells, which synergistically induce the apoptosis of cancer cells. Because of the high biocompatibility, catalytic activities and drug encapsulation properties, this self-assembled peptide provides a biomimetic platform for the development of new nanocatalytic medicines for multimodal synergistic cancer therapies.

Abstract
Efforts have been made to improve the therapeutic efficiency of tumor treatments, and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have shown excellent potential in tumor therapy. Monotherapy for the treatment of tumors has limited effects due to the limitation of response conditions and inevitable multidrug resistance, which seriously affect the clinical therapeutic effect. In this study, we chose to construct a multiple cascade synergistic tumor drug delivery system MIL-101(Fe)-DOX-TCPP-MnO2@PDA-Ag (MDTM@P-Ag) using MOFs as drug carriers. Under near-infrared (NIR) laser irradiation, 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin (TCPP) and Ag NPs loaded on MDTM@P-Ag can be activated to generate cytotoxic reactive oxygen species (ROS) and achieve photothermal conversion, thus effectively inducing the apoptosis of tumor cells and achieving a combined photodynamic/photothermal therapy. Once released at the tumor site, manganese dioxide (MnO2) can catalyze the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in the acidic microenvironment of the tumor to generate oxygen (O2) and alleviate the hypoxic environment of the tumor. Fe3+/Mn2+ will mediate a Fenton/Fenton-like reaction to generate cytotoxic hydroxyl radicals (·OH), while depleting the high concentration of glutathione (GSH) in the tumor, thus enhancing the chemodynamic therapeutic effect. The successful preparation of the tumor drug delivery system and its good synergistic chemodynamic/photodynamic/photothermal therapeutic effect in tumor treatment can be demonstrated by the experimental results of material characterization, performance testing and in vitro experiments.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) is a non-invasive strategy for generating reactive oxygen species (ROS) and is promising for cancer treatment. However, increasing ROS in tumor therapy remains challenging. Therefore, exogenous excitation and inhibition of electron-hole pair recombination are attractive for modulating ROS storms in tumors. Herein, a Ce-doped BiFeO3 (CBFO) piezoelectric sonosensitizer to modulate ROS generation and realize a synergistic mechanism of CDT/sonodynamic therapy and piezodynamic therapy (PzDT) is proposed. The mixed Fe2+ and Ce3+ can implement a circular Fenton/Fenton-like reaction in the tumor microenvironment. Abundant ·OH can be generated by ultrasound (US) stimulation to enhance CDT efficacy. As a typical piezoelectric sonosensitizer, CBFO can produce O2 - owing to the enhanced polarization by the US, resulting in the motion of charge carriers. In addition, CBFO can produce a piezoresponse irradiated upon US, which accelerates the migration rate of electrons/holes in opposite directions and results in energy band bending, further achieving toxic ROS production and realizing PzDT. Density functional theory calculations confirmed that Ce doping shortens the diffusion of electrons and improves the conductivity and catalytic activity of CBFO. This distinct US-enhanced strategy emphasizes the effects of doping engineering and piezoelectric-optimized therapy and shows great potential for the treatment of malignant tumors.

Abstract
Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) has been recognized as a promising treatment for cancer due to its advantages of superior specificity, non-invasiveness, and deep tissue penetration. However, the antitumor effect of SDT remains restricted by the limited generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) due to the lack of highly efficient sonosensitizers. In this work, we developed the novel sonosensitizer Pt/CeO2-xSx by constructing oxygen defects through S doping and Pt loading in situ. Large amounts of oxygen defects have been obtained by S doping, endowing Pt/CeO2-xSx with the ability to suppress electron-hole recombination, further promoting ROS production. Moreover, the introduction of Pt nanoparticles can not only produce oxygen in situ for relieving hypoxia but also form a Schottky heterojunction with CeO2-xSx for further inhibiting electron-hole recombination. In addition, Pt/CeO2-xSx could effectively deplete overexpressed glutathione (GSH) via redox reactions, amplifying oxidative stress in the tumor microenvironment (TME). Combined with the excellent POD-mimetic activity, Pt/CeO2-xSx can achieve highly efficient synergistic therapy of SDT and chemodynamic therapy (CDT). All these findings demonstrated that Pt/CeO2-xSx has great potential for cancer therapy, and this work provides a promising direction for designing and constructing efficient sonosensitizers.

Abstract
Nanozymes, as a type of nanomaterials with enzymatic catalytic activity, have demonstrated tremendous potential in cancer treatment owing to their unique biomedical properties. However, the heterogeneity of tumors and the complex tumor microenvironment pose significant challenges to the in vivo catalytic efficacy of traditional nanozymes. Drawing inspiration from natural enzymes, scientists are now using biomimetic design to build nanozymes from the ground up. This approach aims to replicate the key characteristics of natural enzymes, including active structures, catalytic processes, and the ability to adapt to the tumor environment. This achieves selective optimization of nanozyme catalytic performance and therapeutic effects. This review takes a deep dive into the use of these biomimetically designed nanozymes in cancer treatment. It explores a range of biomimetic design strategies, from structural and process mimicry to advanced functional biomimicry. A significant focus is on tweaking the nanozyme structures to boost their catalytic performance, integrating them into complex enzyme networks similar to those in biological systems, and adjusting functions like altering tumor metabolism, reshaping the tumor environment, and enhancing drug delivery. The review also covers the applications of specially designed nanozymes in pan-cancer treatment, from catalytic therapy to improved traditional methods like chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and sonodynamic therapy, specifically analyzing the anti-tumor mechanisms of different therapeutic combination systems. Through rational design, these biomimetically designed nanozymes not only deepen the understanding of the regulatory mechanisms of nanozyme structure and performance but also adapt profoundly to tumor physiology, optimizing therapeutic effects and paving new pathways for innovative cancer treatment.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS)-involved photodynamic therapy (PDT) and chemodynamic therapy (CDT) hold great promise for tumor treatment. However, hypoxia, insufficient H2O2, and overexpressed glutathione (GSH) in the tumor microenvironment (TME) hinder ROS generation significantly. Herein, we reported CaO2@Cu-TCPP/CUR with O2/H2O2/Ca2+ self-supply and GSH depletion for enhanced PDT/CDT and Ca2+ overload synergistic therapy. CaO2 nanospheres were first prepared and used as templates for guiding the coordination between the carboxyl of tetra-(4-carboxyphenyl)porphine (TCPP) and Cu2+ ions as hollow CaO2@Cu-TCPP, which facilitated GSH-activated TCPP-based PDT and Cu+-mediated CDT. The hollow structure was then loaded with curcumin (CUR) to form CaO2@Cu-TCPP/CUR composites. Cu-TCPP prevented degradation of CaO2, while Cu2+ ions reacted with GSH to deplete GSH, produce Cu+ ions, and release TCPP, CaO2, and CUR. CaO2 reacted with H2O to generate O2, H2O2, and Ca2+ to achieve O2/H2O2/Ca2+ self-supply for TCPP-based PDT, Cu+-mediated CDT, and CUR-enhanced Ca2+ overload therapy. Thus, this multilevel ROS amplifier enhances synergistic therapy with fewer side effects and drug resistance.

Abstract
Multifunctional nanomaterials with potential applications in both bioimaging and photodynamic-sonodynamic therapy have great advantages in cancer theranostic, but the design and preparation of "all-in-one" type of multifunctional nanomaterials with single component remains challenging. Herein the "all-in-one" type of Mn-PpIX (Protoporphyrin IX) coordination polymers (MnPPs) was reported as efficient nano-photo/sonosensitizers. The MnPPs had an average size of ∼ 110 nm. Upon light/US (ultrasound) irradiation for 5 min, 61.8 % (light) and 32.4 % (US) of DPBF (1.3-diphenyl isobenzofuran) was found to be oxidized by MnPPs, which showed effective ROS (reactive oxygen species) generation for photodynamic/sonodynamic therapy (PDT/SDT). In addition, MnPPs revealed excellent biosafety and could be engulfed by cells to produce intracellular ROS under light/US excitation for efficient killing tumor cells. When MnPPs was injected into mice, the tumor could be monitored via MRI (magnetic resonance imaging). In addition, tumor growth could be significantly inhibited by the synergistic PDT-SDT. Therefore, the present study not only represents MnPPs as an "all-in-one" type of multifunctional nanomaterials for MRI-guided PDT-SDT therapy, but also provides some insights for designing other PpIX-related molecules with the similar structure for bioapplication.

Abstract
As an endogenous catalytic treatment, chemodynamic therapy (CDT) was attracting considerable attention, but the weak catalytic efficiency of Fenton agents and the non-degradation of nanocarriers severely limited its development. In this work, a biodegradable bimetallic nanoreactor was developed for boosting CDT, in which Fe-doped hollow mesoporous manganese dioxide (HMnO2) was selected as nanocarrier, and the Fe/HMnO2@DOX-GOD@HA nanoprobe was constructed by loading doxorubicin (DOX) and modifying glucose oxidase (GOD) and hyaluronic acid (HA). The glutathione (GSH) responsive degradation of HMnO2 promoted the release of DOX, by which the release rate significantly increased to 96.6%. Moreover, by the GSH depletion, the reduction of Mn2+/Fe2+ achieved strong bimetallic Fenton efficiency, and the hydroxyl radicals (·OH) generation was further enhanced using the self-supplying H2O2 of GOD. Through the active targeting recognition of HA, the bimetallic nanoreactor significantly enriched the tumor accumulation, by which the enhanced antitumor efficacy was realized. Thus, this work developed biodegradable bimetallic nanoreactor by consuming GSH and self-supplying H2O2, and provided a new paradigm for enhancing CDT.

Abstract
In clinical practice, drug therapy for cancer is still limited by its inefficiency and high toxicity. For precision therapy, various drug delivery systems, including polymeric micelles self-assembled from amphiphilic polymeric materials, have been developed to achieve tumor-targeting drug delivery. Considering the characteristics of the pathophysiological environment at the drug target site, the design, synthesis, or modification of environmentally responsive polymeric materials has become a crucial strategy for drug-targeted delivery. In comparison to the normal physiological environment, tumors possess a unique microenvironment, characterized by a low pH, high reactive oxygen species concentration, hypoxia, and distinct enzyme systems, providing various stimuli for the environmentally responsive design of polymeric micelles. Polymeric micelles with tumor microenvironment (TME)-responsive characteristics have shown significant improvement in precision therapy for cancer treatment. This review mainly outlines the most promising strategies available for exploiting the tumor microenvironment to construct internal stimulus-responsive drug delivery micelles that target tumors and achieve enhanced antitumor efficacy. In addition, the prospects of TME-responsive polymeric micelles for gene therapy and immunotherapy, the most popular current cancer treatments, are also discussed. TME-responsive drug delivery via polymeric micelles will be an efficient and robust approach for developing clinical cancer therapies in the future.

Abstract
A nanozyme is a nanoscale material having enzyme-like properties. It exhibits several superior properties, including low preparation cost, robust catalytic activity, and long-term storage at ambient temperatures. Moreover, high stability enables repetitive use in multiple catalytic reactions. Hence, it is considered a potential replacement for natural enzymes. Enormous research interest in nanozymes in the past two decades has made it imperative to look for better enzyme-mimicking materials for biomedical applications. Given this, research on metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as a potential nanozyme material has gained momentum. MOFs are advanced hybrid materials made of inorganic metal ions and organic ligands. Their distinct composition, adaptable pore size, structural diversity, and ease in the tunability of physicochemical properties enable MOFs to mimic enzyme-like activities and act as promising nanozyme candidates. This review aims to discuss recent advances in the development of MOF-based nanozymes (MOF-NZs) and highlight their applications in the field of biomedicine. Firstly, different enzyme-mimetic activities exhibited by MOFs are discussed, and insights are given into various strategies to achieve them. Modification and functionalization strategies are deliberated to obtain MOF-NZs with enhanced catalytic activity. Subsequently, applications of MOF-NZs in the biosensing and therapeutics domain are discussed. Finally, the review is concluded by giving insights into the challenges encountered with MOF-NZs and possible directions to overcome them in the future. With this review, we aim to encourage consolidated efforts across enzyme engineering, nanotechnology, materials science, and biomedicine disciplines to inspire exciting innovations in this emerging yet promising field.

Abstract
Mild-temperature photothermal therapy (mPTT) has shown some advantages over traditional photothermal therapy, such as reducing the damage to surrounding healthy tissues and minimizing side effects. Nevertheless, cancer cells can easily repair damage caused by mild hyperthermia due to heat shock proteins (HSPs). Thus, it is imperative to maximize the mPTT efficiency by down-regulating HSPs overexpression and combining other cancer treatments. Herein, we report the synthesis of phytic acid (PA)-Cu2+ framework/copper sulfide (Cu2-xS) nanocomposites (abbreviated as PA-Cu/Cu2-xS NPs) as the novel therapeutic platform that can down-regulate HSPs overexpression for enhanced multimodal mPTT/chemodynamic therapy (CDT)/chemotherapy. PA-Cu/Cu2-xS NPs were prepared through self-assembly and in-situ vulcanization strategy, resulting in irregular-shaped particles with an approximate size of 100 nm. PA-Cu/Cu2-xS NPs display a plasmon effect from Cu2-xS, which enhances near-infrared (NIR) absorption and possesses excellent photothermal conversion efficiency (41.7%). Moreover, PA-Cu/Cu2-xS NPs exhibit Fenton-like reaction activity resulting from the Cu ions for CDT, and the reaction activity can be further improved 1.3 times due to mild hyperthermia during mPTT. Furthermore, the generated hydroxyl radical (•OH) can effectively decrease HSPs level to enhance mPTT. PA-Cu/Cu2-xS NPs can also serve as a drug delivery system, and they are capable of loading doxorubicin (DOX) with a loading ability (20.7%). Combining mPTT/CDT/chemotherapy exhibits significant inhibition of tumor growth. This approach can serve as a basis for designing more exquisite platforms that combine mPTT with other therapies to achieve more effective cancer treatment.

Abstract
The high glutathione (GSH) concentration and insufficient H2O2 content in tumor cells strongly constrict the efficacy of Fenton reaction-based chemodynamic therapy (CDT). Despite numerous efforts, it still remains a formidable challenge for achieving satisfactory efficacy using CDT alone. Herein, an intelligent tetrasulfide bond-bridged mesoporous organosilica-based nanoplatform that integrates GSH-depletion, H2S generation, self-supplied H2O2, co-delivery of doxorubicin (DOX) and Fenton reagent Fe2+ is presented for synergistic triple-enhanced CDT/chemotherapy/H2S therapy. Because the tetrasulfide bond is sensitive to GSH, the nanoplatform can effectively consume GSH, leading to ROS accumulation and H2S generation in the GSH-overexpressed tumor microenvironment. Meanwhile, tetrasulfide bond-induced GSH-depletion triggers the degradation of nanoparticles and the release of DOX and Fe2+. Immediately, Fe2+ catalyzes endogenous H2O2 to highly toxic hydroxyl radicals (˙OH) for CDT, and H2S induces mitochondria injury and causes energy deficiency. Of note, H2S can also decrease the decomposition of H2O2 to augment CDT by downregulating catalase. DOX elicits chemotherapy and promotes H2O2 production to provide a sufficient substrate for enhanced CDT. Importantly, the GSH depletion significantly weakens the scavenging effect on the produced ˙OH, guaranteeing the enhanced and highly efficient CDT. Based on the synergistic effect of triple-augmented CDT, H2S therapy and DOX-mediated chemotherapy, the treatment with this nanoplatform gives rise to a superior antitumor outcome.

Abstract
Ferroptosis is a non-apoptotic form of regulated cell death. The efficiency of ferroptosis is restrained in the tumor microenvironment (TME) by overexpression of glutathione (GSH) and insufficient production of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). In this work, theranostic nanoparticles Ce-aMOFs@Fe3+-EGCG, termed MEFs, are developed by coating uniform Ce-based amorphous metal-organic frameworks (Ce-aMOFs) with epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) and Fe3+. Fe3+ is chelated by the adjacent phenol hydroxyl groups in EGCG. In the tumor cell interior, overexpressed GSH and weak acidic medium degrade the coating to release Fe3+ and EGCG accompanied by exposure of Ce-aMOFs. Fe3+ and EGCG consume GSH along with turning Fe3+ into Fe2+. Ce-aMOFs act as a nanozyme possessing dual-enzymatic activities, i.e. superoxide dismutase (SOD)- and phosphatase-like activities. In the TME, Ce-aMOFs catalyze the conversion of endogenous superoxide (O2˙-) into H2O2, and Fe2+ catalyzes H2O2 to generate toxic hydroxyl radicals (˙OH), which may further induce tumor cell death through ferroptosis. In addition, the phosphatase-like activity of Ce-aMOFs may sustainably dephosphorylate NADPH and effectively inhibit intracellular biosynthesis of GSH. Therefore, MEFs ensure down-regulation of intracellular GSH levels and up-regulation of oxidative pressure, which enhance the ferroptosis effect.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) is an emerging treatment strategy for cancer, but the low therapeutic efficacy and potential side effects still limit its applications. In this study, we report a semiconducting polymer nanocatalyst (PGFe) that can generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) only upon near-infrared (NIR) light-activation for photodynamic therapy (PDT)-synergized CDT. Such PGFe consists of a semiconducting polymer as a photosensitizer, iron oxide (Fe3O4) nanoparticles as CDT agents, and glucose oxidase (GOx), all of which are loaded into a singlet oxygen (1O2)-responsive nanocarrier. Under NIR laser irradiation, PGFe produces 1O2 through a photosensitizer-mediated PDT effect, and the produced 1O2 destroys the 1O2-responsive nanocarriers, leading to controlled releases of Fe3O4 nanoparticles and GOx. In a tumor microenvironment, GOx catalyzes glucose degradation to form hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), and thus the CDT effect of Fe3O4 nanoparticles is greatly improved. As such, an amplified ROS level in tumor cells is obtained by PGFe to induce cell death. PGFe can be utilized to treat subcutaneous 4T1 tumors, observably inhibiting the tumor growth and suppressing lung and liver metastasis. This study thus provides a NIR light-activated ROS generation strategy for precise and effective treatments of tumors.

Abstract
Nanoenzymes have been widely explored for chemodynamic therapy (CDT) in cancer treatment. However, poor catalytic efficiency of nanoenzymes, especially in the tumor microenvironment with insufficient H2 O2 and mild acidity, limits the effect of CDT. Herein, a new ultrathin RuCu nanosheet (NS) based nanoenzyme which has a large specific surface area and abundant channels and defects is developed. The RuCu NSs show superb catalytic efficiency for the oxidation of peroxidase substrate H2 O2 at a wide range of pH and their catalytic efficiency (kcat /Km = 177.2 m-1 s-1 ) is about 14.9 times higher than that of the single-atom catalyst FeN3 P. Besides being an efficient nanozyme as peroxidase, the RuCu NSs possess other two enzyme activities, not only disproportionating superoxide anion to produce H2 O2 but also consuming glutathione to keep a high concentration of H2 O2 in the tumor microenvironment for Fenton reaction. With these advantages, the RuCu NSs exhibit good performance to kill cancer cells and inhibit tumor growth in mice, demonstrating a promising potential as new CDT reagent.

Abstract
Various therapeutic strategies, including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, photothermal therapy (PTT), and immunotherapy have been applied in cancer therapy. However, intrinsic or acquired therapeutic resistance is the main obstacle that attenuates the treatment effect of the therapeutic reagents used in these strategies. Studies have shown that autophagy and immunosuppressive tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), as internal and external resistance mechanisms, would significantly compromise the effectiveness of cancer treatment. Therefore, selectively blocking the autophagy and repolarizing TAMs to anti-tumor phenotype (M1) will be effective for cancer treatments. Herein, an ambidextrous strategy that simultaneously inhibited autophagy and reeducated TAMs to promote anti-tumor therapy meditated by the iron-based nanocarriers was reported. The released Fe (II) ion reacted with the released artemisinin (ART) to produce ROS for chemodynamic therapy (CDT). The chloroquine (CQ) was used to inhibit autophagy in cancer cells and reset TAMs from the M2 phenotype to the M1 phenotype, eliminating the resistance of cancer cells and realizing an augmented therapeutic effect. This work provides a promising way for augmenting therapeutic efficiency by simultaneously interfering with two critical therapeutic resistance mechanisms.

Abstract
Therapeutic bioactive macromolecules hold great promise in cancer therapy, but challenges such as low encapsulation efficiency and susceptibility to inactivation during the targeted co-delivery hinder their widespread applications. Compartmentalized nano-metal-organic frameworks (nMOFs) can easily load macromolecules in the innermost layer, protect them from the outside environment, and selectively release them in the target location after stimulation, showing great potential in the co-delivery of biomacromolecules. Herein, the rationally designed (GOx + CAT)/ZIF-8@BSATPZ/ZIF-8 (named GCZ@BTZ) nMOFs with compartmentalized structures are employed to deliver cascaded enzymes and the chemotherapeutic drug tirapazamine (TPZ)-conjugated bovine serum albumin (BSATPZ). Benefiting from the compartmentalized structure and protective shell, the GCZ@BTZ system is stable during blood circulation and preferentially accumulates in the tumor. Furthermore, in response to the acidic tumor environment, GCZ@BTZ effectively released the loading enzymes and BSATPZ. Along with the tumor starvation caused by depletion of glucose, cascaded reactions could also contribute to the enhancement of tumor hypoxia, which further activated BSATPZ-based chemotherapy. Notably, in the mouse tumor models, GCZ@BTZ treatment significantly inhibits tumor survival and metastasis. Such a compartmentalized nMOF delivery system presents a promising avenue for the efficient delivery of bioactive macromolecules.

Abstract
Glutathione (GSH) is the most abundant low-molecular-weight biological thiol in vivo and has been linked to several diseases. The accurate quantification of GSH is therefore crucial for disease diagnosis and monitoring. In this study, we prepared self-assembled Cu(I)-Cys (cysteine) nanozymes through a two-step procedure. The Cu(I)-Cys nanoparticles exhibited peroxidase-mimicking activity. Upon the addition of H2O2, they were able to oxidize 3,3,5,5-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) into oxTMB, resulting in a measurable increase in UV-Vis absorption at 655 nm. However, in the presence of GSH, oxTMB was reduced back to TMB, leading to a decrease in UV-Vis absorption at 655 nm. By utilizing these changes in the absorption intensity, we achieved the sensitive detection of GSH with a detection limit of 2.13 μM. Moreover, taking advantage of the different peroxidase-mimicking activities of Cu(I)-Cys nanoparticles at various pH values, a sensor array with Cu(I)-Cys nanoparticles at pH 4 and pH 5 was constructed. The discrimination of GSH among Cys and ascorbic acid was achieved and the practicability of the sensor array in human serum was validated. This novel approach holds significant promise for the precise discrimination and quantification of GSH and its potential applications in disease diagnosis and therapeutics.

Abstract
Nanozymes are nanomaterials with catalytic properties similar to those of natural enzymes, and they have recently been collectively identified as a class of innovative artificial enzymes. Nanozymes are widely used in various fields, such as biomedicine, due to their high catalytic activity and stability. Nanozymes can trigger changes in reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels in cells and the activation of inflammasomes, leading to the programmed cell death (PCD), including the pyroptosis, ferroptosis, and autophagy, of tumor cells. In addition, some nanozymes consume glucose, starving cancer cells and thus accelerating tumor cell death. In addition, the electric charge of the structure and the catalytic activity of nanozymes are sensitive to external factors such as light and electric and magnetic fields. Therefore, nanozymes can be used with different therapeutic methods, such as chemodynamic therapy (CDT), photodynamic therapy (PDT) and sonodynamic therapy (SDT), to achieve highly efficient antitumor effects. Many cancer therapies induce tumor cell death via the pyroptosis, ferroptosis, and autophagy of tumor cells mediated by nanozymes. We review the mechanisms of pyroptosis, ferroptosis, and autophagy in tumor development, as well as the potential application of nanozymes to regulate pyroptosis, ferroptosis, and autophagy in tumor cells.

Abstract
Bladder cancer (BCa) is one of the most common malignancies of the urinary tract. Metastasis and recurrence of BCa are the leading causes of poor prognosis, and only a few patients can benefit from current first-line treatments such as chemotherapy and immunotherapy. It is urgent to develop more effective therapeutic method with low side effects. Here, a cascade nanoreactor, ZIF-8/PdCuAu/GOx@HA (ZPG@H), is proposed for starvation therapy and ferroptosis of BCa. The ZPG@H nanoreactor was constructed by co-encapsulation of PdCuAu nanoparticles and glucose oxidase into zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) modified by hyaluronic acid. The vitro results indicated that ZPG@H enhanced intracellular reactive oxygen species levels and reduced mitochondrial depolarization in the tumor microenvironment. Therefore, the integrated advantages of starvation therapy and chemodynamic therapy endow ZPG@H with a perfect ferroptosis inducing ability. This effectiveness, combined with its excellent biocompatibility and biosafety, means that ZPG@H could make a critical contribution to the development of novel BCa treatments.

Abstract
Engineering chem-/sono-/photo-multimodal antitumor therapies has become an efficient strategy to combat malignant tumors. However, the existence of hypoxia in the tumor microenvironment (TME) leads to limited sonodynamic or photodynamic efficiency because O2 is the key reactant during the process of generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Here, to design a desirable platform that can simultaneously convert H2O2 in the TME into ROS and O2 for efficient chem-/sono-/photo-multimodal tumor therapies, we have created ultrasmall Cu2O-coordinated carbon nitride on a biocompatible ceria substrate (denoted as Cu2O-CNx@CeO2) via a self-assisted catalytic growth strategy. The chemical and morphological structures, ROS and O2 generation activities, and chemo-/photo-/sono-dynamic specificities of Cu2O-CNx@CeO2 when serving as multifunctional biocatalytic agents were systematically disclosed. The experimental studies validated that Cu2O-CNx@CeO2 presents state-of-the-art peroxidase-like and catalase-like activities. Moreover, the light excitation and ultrasound irradiation were also demonstrated to boost ROS production. The in vitro and in vivo experiments suggest that Cu2O-CNx@CeO2 can efficiently inhibit the growth of malignant melanoma via chem-/sono-/photo-multimodal antitumor ability. We believe that applying these new biocatalysts with dual catalytic activities of producing ROS and O2 will offer a new path for engineering multimodal nanoagents to combat malignant tumors.

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
Metal-organic framework (MOF) materials with aqueous stability have a good potential application in the field of mimetic enzymes. However, most of them have poor robustness in aqueous solution due to competitive coordination effects between water molecules and central metal ions. Herein, a copper-based MOF (Cu-SM MOF) was prepared using copper ions and 5-(sulfomethyl) isophthalic acid (5-SMIPA) by a hydrothermal process. Considering the similarity of coordination and morphology with HKUST-1, the aqueous stability and laccase-like activity of the Cu-SM MOF were investigated using HKUST-1 as the reference. The Cu-SM MOF shows superior aqueous stability to HKUST-1 after immersion in buffer solutions, especially under alkaline conditions. Moreover, the Cu-SM MOF possesses higher catalytic activity than HKUST-1 at a high salt concentration, high temperature, etc., because the Cu-SM MOF exhibits lower Km and higher Vmax values than those of laccase and reported mimetic enzymes. The mimetic enzyme behavior of the Cu-SM MOF is demonstrated in the oxidation of phenols, as well as in the detection of 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DP) and p-nitrophenol with linear ranges of 1-100 μM and 2-250 μM, and limits of detection of 0.53 μM and 1.62 μM, respectively. Owing to the excellent aqueous stability and laccase-like activity of the Cu-SM MOF, it has great application prospects in many fields, such as the determination of phenols and the treatment of industrial wastewater.

Abstract
The development of dual chemodynamic therapy and NO therapy can significantly improve the efficiency of cancer treatment. Therefore, designing a multifunctional agent to take full advantage of them and maximize their therapeutic effect remains a challenging goal. Herein, we have developed a novel LDHzyme by the confinement of L-arginine (L-Arg) on the surface of Mn-LDH nanosheets. The LDHzyme can exhibit multiple enzyme-like catalytic activities, including peroxidase (POD), oxidase (OXD), and nitric oxide synthase (iNOS). Based on these enzyme-mimicking properties, LDHzyme possesses significant catalytic efficiency with a high maximum velocity of 1.41 × 10-6 M s-1, which is higher than the majority of other nanozymes. In addition, this LDHzyme can exhibit outstanding NO-enhanced lethality of ROS and further improve its efficacy. The therapeutic effect of LDHzyme has been verified to significantly inhibit tumor growth in HeLa xenograft Balb/c nude mice models, as demonstrated in both in vitro and in vivo models, revealing the promising prospects of NO-enhanced multi-enzyme dynamic therapy (MDT). These results open up an opportunity to enable the utilization of an LDH-based nanozyme as a curative nanosystem to inhibit tumor growth.

Abstract
Oxidative stress due to Cu2+-triggered aggregation of β-amyloid protein (Aβ) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) overexpression in the brain is an important hallmark of early stages of Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis. The ideal modulator for improving the oxidative stress microenvironment in AD brains should take both Cu2+ and ROS into consideration, which has been rarely reported. Here, a combined therapeutic strategy was achieved by co-encapsulating superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) in imine-linked covalent organic frameworks (COFs), which were modified with peptide KLVFF (T5). The nanocomposite SC@COF-T5 exhibited an oxidative stress eradicating ability through ROS elimination and Cu2+ chelation, combined with the inhibition of Aβ42 monomer aggregation and disaggregation of Aβ42 fibrils. In vivo experiments indicated that SC@COF-T5 with a high blood-brain barrier (BBB) penetration efficiency was effective to reduce Aβ deposition, expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, ROS levels, and neurologic damage in AD model mice, consequently rescuing memory deficits of AD mice. This work not only confirms the feasibility and merits of the therapeutic strategy regarding multiple targets for treatment of early AD pathogenesis but also opens up a novel direction for imine-linked COFs in biomedical applications.

Abstract
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP), as an indispensable biomolecule, is the main energy source of cells and is used as a marker for diseases such as cancer and fatty liver. It is of great significance to design a near-infrared fluorescent nanoprobe with excellent performance and apply it to various disease models. Here, a near-infrared fluorescent nanoprobe (ZIF-90@SiR) based on a zeolitic imidazole framework is proposed. The fluorescent nanoprobes are synthesized by encapsulating the dye (SiR) into the framework of ZIF-90. Upon the addition of ATP, the structure of the ZIF-90@SiR nanoprobe is disrupted and SiR is released to generate near-infrared fluorescence at 670 nm. In the process of ATP detection, ZIF-90@SiR shows high sensitivity and good selectivity. Moreover, the ZIF-90@SiR nanoprobe has good biocompatibility due to its low toxicity to cells. It is used for fluorescence imaging of ATP in living cells and thus distinguishing normal cells and cancer cells, as well as distinguishing fatty liver cells. Due to excellent near-infrared fluorescence properties, the ZIF-90@SiR nanoprobe can not only distinguish normal mice and tumor mice but also differentiate normal mice and fatty liver mice for the first time.

Abstract
Nanosized metal aggregates (MAs), including metal nanoparticles (NPs) and nanoclusters (NCs), are often the active species in numerous applications. In order to maintain the active form of MAs in "use", they need to be anchored and stabilised, preventing agglomeration. In this context, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), which exhibit a unique combination of properties, are of particular interest as a tunable and porous matrix to host MAs. A high degree of control in the synthesis towards atom-efficient and application-oriented MA@MOF composites is required to derive specific structure-property relationships and in turn to enable design of functions on the molecular level. Due to the versatility of MA@MOF (derived) materials, their applications are not limited to the obvious field of catalysis, but increasingly include 'out of the box' applications, for example medical diagnostics and theranostics, as well as specialised (bio-)sensoring techniques. This review focuses on recent advances in the controlled synthesis of MA@MOF materials en route to atom-precise MAs. The main synthetic strategies, namely 'ship-in-bottle', 'bottle-around-ship', and approaches to achieve novel hierarchical MA@MOF structures are highlighted and discussed while identifying their potential as well as their limitations. Hereby, an overview of standard characterisation methods that enable a systematic analysis procedure and state-of-art techniques that localise MA within MOF cavities are provided. While the perspectives of MA@MOF materials in general have been reviewed various times in the recent past, few atom-precise MAs inside MOFs have been reported so far, opening opportunities for future investigation.

Abstract
Fe-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) can be used for chemodynamic therapy (CDT) for tumors due to their unique Fenton-like effects and porous and biodegradable nature. The adsorption and transport of small molecule drugs by their structure has attracted much attention. Herein, MnO2@NH2-MIL101(Fe)@Ce6-F127 nanoparticles (MNMCF NPs) were synthesized using a facile solvothermal strategy. The small molecule photosensitizer Ce6 was adsorbed by MOFs to improve the biocompatibility of Ce6 and give it high bioavailability when injected intravenously. When the MNMCF NPs reached the tumor site, Fe-based MOFs exhibited Fenton-like properties, producing ˙OH and showing CDT effects. MnO2 could specifically respond to produce O2 in a tumor microenvironment, thereby improving the tumor hypoxia state and enhancing the efficacy of photodynamic therapy (PDT) by Ce6. Both the in vitro and in vivo experiments showed that the MNMCF-guided CDT/PDT combination therapy could effectively ablate tumors without the drawbacks of poor tolerability and potential long-term side effects. Therefore, the prepared MNMCF NPs can be used as promising candidates for synergistic CDT/PDT tumor therapy.

Abstract
Since the first report in 1989, Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) self-assembled from metal ions or clusters, as well as organic linkers, have attracted extensive attention. Due to their flexible composition, large surface areas, modifiable surface properties, and their degradability, there has been an exponential increase in the study of MOFs materials, specifically in drug delivery system areas such as infection, diabetes, pulmonary disease, ocular disease, imaging, tumor therapy, and especially cancer theranostics. In this review, we discuss the trends in MOFs biosafety, from "green" synthesis to applications in drug delivery systems. Firstly, we present the different "green" synthesis approaches used to prepare MOFs materials. Secondly, we detail the methods for the functional coating, either through grafting targeting units, poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) chains or by using cell membranes. Then, we discuss drug encapsulation strategies, host-guest interactions, as well as drug release mechanisms. Lastly, we report on the drug delivery applications of nanoscale MOFs. In particular, we discuss MOFs-based imaging techniques, including magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), photoacoustic imaging (PAI), positron emission tomography (PET), and fluorescence imaging. MOFs-based cancer therapy methods are also presented, such as photothermal therapy (PTT), photodynamic therapy (PDT), radiotherapy (RT), chemotherapy, and immunotherapy.

Abstract
Nanozymes with the merits of effective enzyme-mimic activities, tunable catalytic properties, pH/temperature tolerance, and high stability have been consumingly researched for nanocatalytic therapy. Herein, the union nanozymes and a natural enzyme nanoplatform (DMSN@CoFe2O4/GOD-PCM) are elaborately designed by simply depositing an ultrasmall cobalt ferrite (CoFe2O4) bimetallic oxide nanozyme and natural glucose oxidase (GOD) that are loaded into the aperture (∼12 nm) of dendritic mesoporous silica (DMSN) for near-infrared-II-enhanced tumor therapy. Upon irradiation, the hyperthermia generated by CoFe2O4 nanozymes unlocks the "gate" of phase-change material (PCM) for releasing GOD, which reshapes the specific tumor microenvironment (TME) through the glucose metabolism pathway. The resulting strengthened acid condition and a considerable amount of H2O2 efficiently initiate the cascade catalysis reactions. Moreover, highly toxic hydroxyl radicals are generated with a Co/Fe dual-cycle system of ultrasmall CoFe2O4 nanozymes. The in situ glutathione consumption and hypoxia relief further amplify oxidative stress. In addition, chemotherapeutic effects due to the cytotoxicity of cobalt ions enhance the therapeutic performance. Collectively, this study provides a proof of concept for TME-reshaped natural and artificial nanozyme cascade catalysis for combined reactive oxygen species-based therapy and chemotherapy.

Abstract
Nanozymes with multienzyme-mimicking activities have shown great potential in cancer therapy due to their ability to modulate the complex tumor microenvironment (TME). Herein, a second near-infrared (NIR-II) photothermal-nanocatalyst by decorating Bi2 Te3 nanosheets with ultrasmall Au/Pd bimetallic nanoparticles (Bi2 Te3 -Au/Pd) to reverse the immunosuppressive TME is developed. The peroxidase (POD)-like and catalase (CAT)-like activities, and glutathione (GSH) consumption capacity of Au/Pd modulates the TME by disrupting the intracellular redox homeostasis and relieving hypoxia in the TME. Notably, the amplified oxidative stress induces the accumulation of lipid hydroperoxides (LPO) for enhanced ferroptosis. Moreover, upon NIR-II photoirradiation at 1064 nm, the localized heat generated by Bi2 Te3 not only directly ablates the cancer cells but also enhances the Au/Pd-mediated catalysis-mediated cancer therapy. Furthermore, both in vitro and in vivo studies confirm that the Bi2 Te3 -Au/Pd nanocatalysts (BAP NCs) can effectively suppress tumor growth by inducing immunogenic cell death (ICD), and suppressing metastasis and recurrence by the synergistic treatment. Overall, this study provides a promising theranostic strategy for effective tumor inhibition.

Abstract
Copper-based nanomaterials (Cu-based NMs) with favorable biocompatibility and unique properties have attracted the attention of many biomedical researchers. Cu-based NMs are one of the most widely studied materials in cancer treatment. In recent years, great progress has been made in the field of biomedicine, especially in the treatment and diagnosis of tumors. This review begins with the classification of Cu-based NMs and the recent synthetic strategies of Cu-based NMs. Then, according to the abundant and special properties of Cu-based NMs, their application in biomedicine is summarized in detail. For biomedical imaging, such as photoacoustic imaging, positron emission tomography imaging, and multimodal imaging based on Cu-based NMs are summarized, as well as strategies to improve the diagnostic effectiveness. Moreover, a series of unique structures and functions as well as the underlying property activity relationship of Cu-based NMs were shown to highlight their promising therapeutic performance. Cu-based NMs have been widely used in monotherapies, such as photothermal therapy (PTT) and chemodynamic therapy (CDT). Moreover, the sophisticated design in composition, structure, and surface fabrication of Cu-based NMs can endow these NMs with more modalities in cancer diagnosis and therapy. To further improve the efficiency of cancer treatment, combined therapy based on Cu-based NMs was introduced in detail. Finally, the challenges, critical factors, and future prospects for the clinical translation of Cu-based NMs as multifunctional theranostic agents were also considered and discussed. The aim of this review is to provide a better understanding and key consideration for the rational design of this increasingly important new paradigm of Cu-based NMs as theranostic agents. This article is categorized under: Therapeutic Approaches and Drug Discovery > Nanomedicine for Oncologic Disease Diagnostic Tools > In Vivo Nanodiagnostics and Imaging.

Abstract
Nanozymes are inorganic nanostructures whose enzyme mimic activities are increasingly explored in disease treatment, taking inspiration from natural enzymes. The catalytic ability of nanozymes to generate reactive oxygen species can be used for designing effective antimicrobials and antitumor therapeutics. In this context, composite nanozymes are advantageous, particularly because they integrate the properties of various nanomaterials to offer a single multifunctional platform combining photodynamic therapy (PDT), photothermal therapy (PTT), and chemodynamic therapy (CDT). Hence, recent years have witnessed great progress in engineering composite nanozymes for enhanced pro-oxidative activity that can be utilized in therapeutics. Therefore, the present review traverses over the newer strategies to design composite nanozymes as pro-oxidative therapeutics. It provides recent trends in the use of composite nanozymes as antibacterial, antibiofilm, and antitumor agents. This review also analyzes various challenges yet to be overcome by pro-oxidative composite nanozymes before being used in the field.

Abstract
The ability of some nanoparticles to mimic the activity of certain enzymes paves the way for several attractive biomedical applications which bolster the already impressive arsenal of nanomaterials to combat deadly diseases. A key feature of such 'nanozymes' is the duplication of activities of enzymes or classes of enzymes, such as catalase, superoxide dismutase, oxidase, and peroxidase which are known to modulate the oxidative balance of treated cells for facilitating a particular biological process such as cellular apoptosis. Several nanoparticles that include those of metals, metal oxides/sulfides, metal-organic frameworks, carbon-based materials, etc., have shown the ability to behave as one or more of such enzymes. As compared to natural enzymes, these artificial nanozymes are safer, less expensive, and more stable. Moreover, their catalytic activity can be tuned by changing their size, shape, surface properties, etc. In addition, they can also be engineered to demonstrate additional features, such as photoactivated hyperthermia, or be loaded with active agents for multimodal action. Several researchers have explored the nanozyme-mediated oxidative modulation for therapeutic purposes, often in combination with other diagnostic and/or therapeutic modalities, using a single probe. It has been observed that such synergistic action can effectively by-pass the various defense mechanisms adapted by rogue cells such as hypoxia, evasion of immuno-recognition, drug-rejection, etc. The emerging prospects of using several such nanoparticle platforms for the treatment of bacterial infections/diseases and cancer, along with various related challenges and opportunities, are discussed in this review.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) has aroused extensive attention as a potent therapeutic modality. However, its practical application is severely restricted by the strong acidity requirement for Fenton reaction and upregulated antioxidant defense within metastatic breast cancer. Herein, a copper-based single-site nanocatalyst functionalized with carbonic anhydrase inhibitor (CAI) was constructed for magnetic resonance/photoacoustic imaging (MRI/PA)-guided synergetic photothermal therapy (PTT) and CDT. Once reaching tumor sites, the nanocatalyst can be recognized by tumor cell membranes-overexpressed carbonic anhydrase IX (CA IX). Subsequently, the single-site CuII can be reduced to CuI by the tumor-overexpressed glutathione (GSH), which simultaneously impaired the tumor antioxidant defense system and triggered CAI release for inducing intracellular H+ accumulation. Further, the decreased intracellular pH can accelerate the nanocatalyst biodegradation to release more CuII and CAI to participate in next-cycle GSH-depletion and cytoplasm acidification, respectively, thereby continuously supplying CuI and H+ for self-cyclically amplified CDT. Upon laser irradiation, the nanocatalyst can generate local heat, which not only permits PTT but also enhances the nanocatalyst-mediated CDT. Moreover, the suppression of CA IX can hinder the tumor extracellular matrix degradation to prevent tumor metastasis. Overall, this work highlighted the great application prospect in enhancing CDT via tumor acidic/redox microenvironment remodeling, and provides an insightful paradigm for inhibiting breast cancer metastasis. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: The practical application of chemodynamic therapy (CDT) is severely restricted by the strong acidity requirement for Fenton reaction and upregulated antioxidant defense within cancer.

Abstract
Nowadays, nano-/micro-motors are considered as powerful tools in different areas ranging from cleaning all types of contaminants, to development of Targeted drug delivery systems and diagnostic activities. Therefore, the development and application of nano-/micro-motors based on metal-organic frameworks with nanozyme activity (abbreviated as: MOF-NZs) in biomedical activities have received much interest recently. Therefore, after investigating the catalytic properties and applications of MOF-NZs in the treatment of cancer, this study intends to point out their key role in the production of biocompatible nano-/micro-motors. Since reducing the toxicity of MOF-NZ nano-/micro-motors can pave the way for medical activities, this article examines the methods of making biocompatible nanomotors to address the benefits and drawbacks of the required propellants. In the following, an analysis of the amplified directional motion of MOF-NZ nano-/micro-motors under physiological conditions is presented, which can improve the motor behaviors in the propulsion function, conductivity, targeting, drug release, and possible elimination. Meanwhile, by explaining the use of MOF-NZ nano-/micro-motors in the treatment of cancer through the possible synergy of nanomotors with different therapies, it was revealed that MOF-NZ nano-/micro-motors can be effective in the treatment of cancer. Ultimately, by analyzing the potential challenges of MOF-NZ nano-/micro-motors in the treatment of cancers, we hope to encourage researchers to develop MOF-NZs-based nanomotors, in addition to opening up new ideas to address ongoing problems.

Abstract
Manganese has recently been exploited for cancer immunotherapy, fenton-like reaction-mediated chemo-dynamic therapy, and magnetic resonance imaging. The integration of multiple roles of manganese into one platform is of great significance for cancer theranostics and tumor inhibition. Here, we designed a multifunctional nanoplatform based on manganese, which consisted of a manganese-containing inner core and a phospholipid bilayer shell co-loaded with glucose oxidase (GOx), paclitaxel (PTX), and a NIR fluorescent dye (NanoMn-GOx-PTX). In a pH-dependent manner, the nanoplatform released manganese ions and payloads inside the tumor cells. In vitro characterization and cellular experiments indicated that NanoMn-GOx-PTX could catalyze the conversion of glucose into reactive oxygen species (ROS) through a cascade Fenton-like reaction as well as release free PTX. The consumption of glucose, ROS production, and the chemotherapeutic effect of PTX contributed to the superior cytotoxicity and apoptosis of 4T1 cancer cells. Moreover, NanoMn-GOx-PTX effectively induced the production of large amounts of type I interferon and pro-inflammatory cytokines in vivo, activating the innate immune response. Through the synergistic functions of the above components, NanoMn-GOx-PTX exerted the strongest anti-tumor effect in 4T1 tumor-bearing models. Therefore, the manganese-based nanoplatform could serve as a promising theranostic tool for breast cancer therapy. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: 1) This nanoplatform can be used as a universal tool for delivering proteins and anticancer drugs into cells; 2) The PEG-modified phospholipid bilayer shell plays a significant role in retarding the release of overloaded manganese ions and drugs in a pH-sensitive manner; 3) The released Mn2+ has the ability to enhance T1 contrast in magnetic resonance imaging; 4) The released Mn2+ can function as nanoadjuvants to activate the cGAS-STING pathway and effectively induce the natural immune response;5) The overloaded manganese ions are combined with glucose oxidase to form a cascade reaction system, indirectly converting glucose into ROS to induce oxidative damage of tumor tissue.

Abstract
Background Femoral stem of titanium alloy has been widely used for hip arthroplasty with considerable efficacy; however, the application of this implant in patients with osteoporosis is limited due to excessive bone resorption. Macrophages participate in the regulation of inflammatory response and have been a topic of increasing research interest in implant field. However, few study has explored the link between macrophage polarization and osteogenic–osteoclastic differentiation. The present study aims to develop a novel hierarchical biofunctionalized 3D-printed porous Ti6Al4V scaffold with enhanced osteoporotic osseointegration through immunotherapy. Method To improve the osteointegration under osteoporosis, we developed a hierarchical biofunctionalized 3D-printed porous Ti6Al4V scaffold (PT). Biomimetic extracellular matrix (ECM) was constructed inside the interconnected pores of PT in micro-scale. And in nano-scale, a drug cargo icariin@Mg-MOF-74 (ICA@MOF) was wrapped in ECM-like structure that can control release of icariin and Mg2+. Results In this novel hierarchical biofunctionalized 3D-printed porous Ti6Al4V scaffold, the macroporous structure provides mechanical support, the microporous structure facilitates cell adhesion and enhances biocompatibility, and the nanostructure plays a biological effect. We also demonstrate the formation of abundant new bone at peripheral and internal sites after intramedullary implantation of the biofunctionalized PT into the distal femur in osteoporotic rats. We further find that the controlled-release of icariin and Mg2+ from the biofunctionalized PT can significantly improve the polarization of M0 macrophages to M2-type by inhibiting notch1 signaling pathway and induce the secretion of anti-inflammatory cytokines; thus, it significantly ameliorates bone metabolism, which contributes to improving the osseointegration between the PT and osteoporotic bone. Conclusion The therapeutic potential of hierarchical PT implants containing controlled release system are effective in geriatric orthopaedic osseointegration. Graphical Abstract ![]()
