Abstract
This paper describes a sensitive method for determining protamine and heparin by utilizing a glucose oxidase enzymatic reaction. Polycationic protamine significantly promoted the enzymatic reaction rate with [Fe(CN)6]3-, so that the increase could be used to determine protamine. The promotion effect was stoichiometrically decreased by the addition of polyanionic heparin through the polyion complex formation with protamine, so that the enzymatic reaction also allowed for the determination of heparin. We thus applied the proposed method to blood plasma containing heparin and found that heparin did not stoichiometrically form a polyion complex with protamine, likely due to strong interactions between heparin and some components of the plasma. The proposed method allowed for the detection of free protamine (and/or weakly binding protamine with heparin) existing in the condition that protamine did not neutralize all of the heparin in the plasma. The method also permitted for the estimation of heparin concentrations using calibration curves. Thus, the proposed method would help reduce the risks of protamine overdose in heparin neutralization and would be a helpful tool in clinical practices that use heparin and protamine.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease remains one of the leading causes of death in China, with increasingly serious negative effects on people and society. Despite significant advances in preventing and treating cardiovascular diseases, such as atrial fibrillation/flutter and heart failure over the last few years, much more remains to be done. Therefore, developing innovative methods for identifying and managing cardiovascular disorders is critical. Nanomaterials provide multiple benefits in biomedicine, primarily better catalytic activity, drug loading, targeting, and imaging. Biomimetic materials and nanoparticles are specially combined to synthesize biomimetic nanoparticles that successfully reduce the nanoparticles' toxicity and immunogenicity while enhancing histocompatibility. Additionally, the biological targeting capability of nanoparticles facilitates the diagnosis and therapy of cardiovascular disease. Nowadays, nanomedicine still faces numerous challenges, which necessitates creating nanoparticles that are highly selective, toxic-free, and better clinically applicable. This study reviews the scientific accomplishments in this field over the past few years covering the classification, applications, and prospects of noble metal biomimetic nanozymes and biomimetic nanocarriers.

Effective fabrication of cellulose nanofibrils supported Pd nanoparticles as a novel nanozyme with peroxidase and oxidase-like activities for efficient dye degradation. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2022; 436:129165. [PMID: 35739705 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2022.129165] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2022] [Revised: 05/13/2022] [Accepted: 05/14/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Nanozyme-based dye degradation methods are promising for the remediation of water pollution. Though Pd nanoparticles (PdNPs) are known to act as nanozymes, their dye degradation capability has not been investigated. Low nanozyme activities, easy aggregation, difficulties in recovery and reuse are the major challenges in achieving this. For the first time, cellulose nanofibrils-supported PdNPs (PdNPs/PCNF) as a novel nanozyme with good peroxidase and oxidase-mimicking activities and easy recyclability is explored for dye degradation. An efficient and rapid method of PdNPs/PCNF preparation was demonstrated by adjusting the pH and microwave irradiation. Enzyme kinetic studies revealed good kinetic parameters and specific activities of 415 and 277 U/g for peroxidase and oxidase, respectively. PdNPs/PCNF offered 99.64% degradation of methylene blue within 12 min (0.468 min-1) with 0.4 M H2O2 at pH 5.0. Mechanistic studies revealed the involvement of hydroxyl and superoxide radicals. Owing to the network-like structure of PCNF, films and foams were prepared, their dye degradation potentials were compared, and recyclability was tested. Successful degradation of mixed dye solutions and spiked real water samples was achieved and a continuous flow method was demonstrated using a foam-packed column.

Abstract
The peroxide-like catalytic activity of gold nanoclusters (Au-NCs) is very low under physiological conditions (pH 7.4), which greatly limits its biological detection applications. A new nanoenzyme platform was constructed by self-assembly of Au-NCs and ZIF-8/CQDs. It was found that heparin can significantly promote the peroxidase-like activity of Au-NCs on the nanoenzyme platform at pH 7.4. In the presence of H2O2, the catalytic activity of Au-NCs on the nanoenzyme platform for TMB increased nearly 50 times. Based on this phenomenon, a colorimetric method was developed to determine heparin in the range of 0.0185-9.25 U/mL, with a detection limit of 0.0027 U/mL. When protamine is introduced, heparin and protamine take the lead in specific binding due to antagonism, which makes heparin unable to adsorb on the surface of ZIF-8/CQDS, thus inhibiting the enhancement of the catalytic activity of Au-NCs. Based on this phenomenon, a colorimetric method was developed to determine protamine in the range of 0.01-0.5 μg/mL, with a detection limit of 0.003 μg/mL. Therefore, this method provides a new idea for the visual detection of heparin and protamine under physiological conditions.

Abstract
Natural enzymes have excellent catalytic activity. However, due to their unstable nature and high cost, current research has turned to the synthesis and development of enzyme-like nanomaterials and single-atomic nanozymes. In this study, a single-atomic palladium-loaded nitrogen-doped porous carbon catalyst (SA-Pd/NPC) was prepared and used as a mimetic peroxidase to catalyze the substrates oxidation. The catalytic capability of the SA-Pd/NPC was tested by the TMB-H2O2 system, and it expressed a superior catalytic capability owing to the plentiful catalytic centers of the single-atom Pd, its high porosity, the large specific surface area, and the strong electron transfer capability of the NPC. For the color reaction of TMB, thiol antioxidants (e.g., glutathione, GSH) and non-thiol antioxidants (e.g., ascorbic acid, AA) are suitable for different inhibition mechanisms. GSH and AA are typical substances of these two main antioxidant types, respectively. Here, we demonstrate that this prepared catalyst could be used to simultaneously determine a variety of major known physiologically relevant thiol-containing and thiol-free antioxidants, accompanied by a blue color gradient change with UV-Vis spectra at 652 nm through the SA-Pd/NPC-catalyzed TMB-H2O2 system. Linear responses to GSH and AA could be obtained in the concentration ranges of 0.01-0.10 mM and 1-13 μM (both R2 values were greater than 0.970), respectively, while the limits of detection were 3 μM and 0.3 μM, respectively. The ability of the nanozyme to detect overall antioxidant levels (TAL) was also confirmed in subsequent tests on artificial saliva and biological samples.

Abstract
Natural enzymes usually suffer from high production cost, ease of denaturation and inactivation, and low yield, making them difficult to be broadly applicable. As an emerging type of artificial enzyme, nanozymes that combine the characteristics of nanomaterials and enzymes are promising alternatives. On the one hand, nanozymes have high enzyme-like catalytic activities to regulate biochemical reactions. On the other hand, nanozymes also inherit the properties of nanomaterials, which can ameliorate the shortcomings of natural enzymes and serve as versatile platforms for diverse applications. In this review, various nanozymes that mimic the catalytic activity of different enzymes are introduced. The achievements of nanozymes in different cancer diagnosis and treatment technologies are summarized by highlighting the advantages of nanozymes in these applications. Finally, future research directions in this rapidly developing field are outlooked.
