ZIF-8 functionalized S-tapered fiber-optic sensor for polystyrene nanoplastics detection by electrostatic adsorption. Talanta 2024; 275:126168. [PMID: 38678924 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.126168] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2024] [Revised: 04/11/2024] [Accepted: 04/25/2024] [Indexed: 05/01/2024]
Abstract
Microplastic (MP) residues in marine have become an increasingly serious environmental pollution issue, and in recent years the detection of MPs in marine started to attract worldwide research interests. Optical-fiber-based environmental sensors have been extensively employed for their several merits such as high sensitivity, pressure resistance, compactness and ease of constructing communication networks. However, fiber-optic refractive index sensors are not specifically developed for distinguishing MPs from other inorganic particles suspended in water. In this paper, an metal-organic framework (MOF) ZIF-8 functionalized S-tapered fiber (STF) sensor is proposed for specific detection of polystyrene nanoplastics (PSNPs) in aqueous environment. ZIF-8 coordination nanoporous polymers with different film thickness were immobilized over the surface of the fabricated STF structure based on self-growth technique and yielding a large surface area over the sensor surface. High sensitivity detection can be achieved by converting the concentration perturbation of PSNPs into evanescent waves over the ZIF-8 functionalized STF surface through the strong electrostatic adsorption effect and π-π stacking, while the fabricated sensor is insensitive to gravels with silica as the primary component in water. It is found that the proposed detector with 18 film layers achieves a sensitivity up to 114.1353nm/%(w/v) for the PSNPs concentration range of 0.01 %(w/v) to 0.08 %(w/v).

Abstract
Bacteria-induced keratitis is a major cause of corneal blindness in both developed and developing countries. Instillation of antibiotic eyedrops is the most common management of bacterial keratitis but usually suffers from low bioavailability (i.e., <5%) and frequent administration, due to the existence of corneal epithelial barrier that prevents large and hydrophilic drug molecules from entering the cornea, and the tear film on corneal surface that rapidly washes drug away from the cornea. Here, a self-implantable core-shell microneedle (MN) patch with programmed drug release property to facilitate bacterial keratitis treatment is reported. The pH-responsive antimicrobial nanoparticles (NPs), Ag@ZIF-8, which are capable of producing antibacterial metal ions in the infected cornea and generating oxidative stress in bacteria, are loaded in the dissolvable core, while the anti-angiogenic drug, rapamycin (Rapa), is encapsulated in the biodegradable shell, thereby enabling rapid release of Ag@ZIF-8 NPs and sustained release of Rapa after corneal insertion. Owing to the programmed release feature, one single administration of the core-shell MN patch in a rat model of bacterial keratitis, can achieve satisfactory antimicrobial activity and superior anti-angiogenic and anti-inflammation effects as compared to daily topical eyedrops, indicating a great potential for the infectious keratitis therapy in clinics.

Abstract
Oridonin (Ori) is a naturally existing diterpenoid substance that mainly exists in the Chinese medicinal plant Rabdosia rubescens. It was previously found to possess intriguing biological properties; however, the quick clearance from plasma and limited solubility in water restricts its use as a drug. Several metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), having big surfaces and large pores, have recently been considered promising drug transporters. The zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8), a form of MOF consisting of 2-methylimidazole with zinc ions, is structurally stable under physiologically neutral conditions, while it can degrade at low pH values such as in tumor cells. Herein, a nanosized drug delivery system, Ori@ZIF-8, was successfully designed for encapsulating and transporting oridonin to the tumor site. The drug loading of the prepared Ori@ZIF-8 was 26.78%, and the particles' mean size was 240.5 nm. In vitro, the release of Ori@ZIF-8 exhibited acid sensitivity, with a slow release under neutral conditions and rapid release of the drug under weakly acidic conditions. According to the in vitro anti-tumor experiments, Ori@ZIF-8 produced higher cytotoxicity than free Ori and induced apoptosis in A549 cancer cells. In conclusion, Ori@ZIF-8 could be a potential pH-responsive carrier to accurately release more oridonins at the tumor site.

Abstract
Vaccines represent a pivotal health advancement for preventing infection. However, because carrier systems with repeated administration can invoke carrier-targeted immune responses that diminish subsequent immune responses (e.g., PEG antibodies), there is a continual need to develop novel vaccine platforms. Zinc carnosine microparticles (ZnCar MPs), which are composed of a one-dimensional coordination polymer formed between carnosine and the metal ion zinc, have exhibited efficacy in inducing an immune response against influenza. However, ZnCar MPs' limited suspendability hinders clinical application. In this study, we address this issue by mixing mannan, a polysaccharide derived from yeast, with ZnCar MPs. We show that the addition of mannan increases the suspendability of this promising vaccine formulation. Additionally, since mannan is an adjuvant, we illustrate that the addition of mannan increases the antibody response and T cell response when mixed with ZnCar MPs. Mice vaccinated with mannan + OVA/ZnCar MPs had elevated serum IgG and IgG1 levels in comparison to vaccination without mannan. Moreover, in the mannan + OVA/ZnCar MPs vaccinated group, mucosal washes demonstrated increased IgG, IgG1, and IgG2c titers, and antigen recall assays showed enhanced IFN-γ production in response to MHC-I and MHC-II immunodominant peptide restimulation, compared to the vaccination without mannan. These findings suggest that the use of mannan mixed with ZnCar MPs holds potential for subunit vaccination and its improved suspendability further promotes clinical translation.

Abstract
Pseudorabies virus (PRV) is a highly contagious viral disease, which leads to severe financial losses in the breeding industry worldwide. Presently, PRV is mainly controlled using live attenuated and inactivated vaccines. However, these vaccines have an innate tendency to lose their structural conformation upon exposure to environmental and chemical stressors and cannot provide full protection against the emerging prevalent PRV variants. In this work, first, we synthesized aminated ZIF-7/8 nanoparticles (NPs), and then chemical bond-coated alginate dialdehyde (ADA, a type of dioxide alginate saccharide) on their surface via Schiff base reaction to obtain ZIF-7/8-ADA NPs. The as-fabricated ZIF-7/8-ADA NPs exhibited high stability, monodispersity and a high loading ratio of antigen. Furthermore, the ZIF-7/8-ADA NPs showed good biocompatibility in vitro and in vivo. Using ZIF-7/8-ADA NPs as an adjuvant and inactivated PRV as a model antigen, we constructed a PR vaccine through a simple mixture. The immunity studies indicated that ZIF-7/8-ADA induced an enhancement in the Th1/Th2 immune response, which was superior to that of the commercial ISA201, alum adjuvant and ZIF-7/8. Due to the pH-sensitive release of the antigen in lysosomes, the as-prepared PR vaccine subsequently accelerated the antigen presentation and improved the immune responses in vitro and in vivo. The results of PRV challenge using mice as the model demonstrated that ZIF-7/8-ADA achieved the same preventive effect as the commercial ISA201 and was much better than the alum adjuvant, and thus can serve as a promising delivery system and adjuvant to enhance humoral and cellular responses against PRV infection.

Abstract
Neurotoxins present a substantial threat to human health and security as they disrupt and damage the nervous system. Their potent and structurally diverse nature poses challenges in developing effective countermeasures. In this study, a unique nanoparticle design that combines dual-biomimicry mechanisms to enhance the detoxification efficacy of neurotoxins is introduced. Using saxitoxin (STX), one of the deadliest neurotoxins, and its natural binding protein saxiphilin (Sxph) as a model system, human neuronal membrane-coated and Sxph-loaded metal-organic framework (MOF) nanosponges (denoted "Neuron-MOF/Sxph-NS") are successfully developed. The resulting Neuron-MOF/Sxph-NS exhibit a biomimetic design that not only emulates host neurons for function-based detoxification through the neuronal membrane coating, but also mimics toxin-resistant organisms by encapsulating the Sxph protein within the nanoparticle core. The comprehensive in vitro assays, including cell osmotic swelling, calcium flux, and cytotoxicity assays, demonstrate the improved detoxification efficacy of Neuron-MOF/Sxph-NS. Furthermore, in mouse models of STX intoxication, the application of Neuron-MOF/Sxph-NS shows significant survival benefits in both therapeutic and prophylactic regimens, without any apparent acute toxicity. Overall, the development of Neuron-MOF/Sxph-NS represents an important advancement in neurotoxin detoxification, offering promising potential for treating injuries and diseases caused by neurotoxins and addressing the current limitations in neurotoxin countermeasures.

Abstract
Luteolin, a naturally occurring pharmaceutical compound with significant antitumor properties, faces challenges in clinical applications due to its low solubility in water and limited bioavailability. To address these issues, a one-step synthesis method was employed to encapsulate luteolin within ZIF-8. The successful preparation of luteolin@ ZIF-8 nanoparticles was confirmed through various analytical techniques, including fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), laser size distribution analysis, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and release curve assessment. Results indicate that the formulated luteolin@ ZIF-8 nanoparticles exhibited high drug loading (1360 mg/g) and demonstrated selective drug release in acidic microenvironments. Furthermore, the encapsulation of luteolin increased the size of ZIF-8 from 168.4 ± 0.2 nm to 384.7 ± 1.4 nm, but did not change its crystalline structure significantly. Notably, the results of in vitro anti-cervical and prostate cancers experiments revealed that luteolin@ ZIF-8 had better efficacy in inhibiting the proliferation and migration of HeLa and PC3 cells than free luteolin. The antitumor activity of luteolin@ ZIF-8 was sustained for 72 h, with a particularly pronounced inhibitory effect on HeLa cells as compared to PC3 cells. This study underscores the effective enhancement of luteolin's antitumor activity through encapsulation in ZIF-8, offering substantial implications for improving its clinical applications.

Abstract
ZIF-8 (zeolitic imidazolate framework-8) is a potential drug delivery system because of its unique properties, which include a large surface area, a large pore capacity, a large loading capacity, and outstanding stability under physiological conditions. ZIF-8 nanoparticles may be readily functionalized with targeting ligands for the identification and absorption of particular cancer cells, enhancing the efficacy of chemotherapeutic medicines and reducing adverse effects. ZIF-8 is also pH-responsive, allowing medication release in the acidic milieu of cancer cells. Because of its tunable structure, it can be easily functionalized to design cancer-specific targeted medicines. The delivery of ZIF-8 to cancer cells can be facilitated by folic acid-conjugation. Hence, it can bind to overexpressed folate receptors on the surface of cancer cells, which holds the promise of reducing unwanted deliveries. As a result of its importance in cancer treatment, the folate-conjugated ZIF-8 was the major focus of this review.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are porous materials with unique characteristics that make them well-suited for drug delivery and gene therapy applications. Among the MOFs, zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) has emerged as a promising candidate for delivering exogenous DNA into cells. However, the potential of ZIF-8 as a vector for sperm-mediated gene transfer (SMGT) has not yet been thoroughly explored.This investigation aimed to explore the potential of ZIF-8 as a vector for enhancing genetic transfer and transgenesis rates by delivering exogenous DNA into sperm cells. To test this hypothesis, we employed ZIF-8 to deliver a plasmid expressing green fluorescent protein (GFP) into mouse sperm cells and evaluated the efficiency of DNA uptake. Our findings demonstrate that ZIF-8 can efficiently load and deliver exogenous DNA into mouse sperm cells, increasing GFP expression in vitro. These results suggest that ZIF-8 is a valuable tool for enhancing genetic transfer in SMGT, with important implications for developing genetically modified animals for research and commercial purposes. Additionally, our study highlights the potential of ZIF-8 as a novel class of vectors for gene delivery in reproductive biology.Overall, our study provides a foundation for further research into using ZIF-8 and other MOFs as gene delivery systems in reproductive biology and underscores the potential of these materials as promising vectors for gene therapy and drug delivery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Multimodal cancer therapy has garnered significant interest due to its ability to target tumor cells from various perspectives. The advancement of novel nano-delivery platforms represents a promising approach for improving treatment effectiveness while minimizing detrimental effects on healthy tissues. METHODS This study aimed to develop a multifunctional nano-delivery system capable of simultaneously delivering an anti-cancer drug, a radiosensitizer agent, and a targeting moiety (three-in-one) for the triple combination therapy of colorectal cancer (CRC). This unique nano-platform, called Apt-PEG-DOX/ZIF-8@GQD, encapsulated both doxorubicin (DOX) and graphene quantum dots (GQDs) within the zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8). To enhance the safety and anti-cancer potential of the platform, heterobifunctional polyethylene glycol (PEG) and an epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) aptamer were conjugated with the system, resulting in the formation of targeted Apt-PEG-DOX/ZIF-8@GQD NPs. The physical and chemical characteristics of Apt-PEG-DOX/ZIF-8@GQD were thoroughly examined, and its therapeutic efficacy was evaluated in combination with radiotherapy (RT) against both EpCAM-positive HT-29 and EpCAM-negative CHO cells. Furthermore, the potential of Apt-PEG-DOX/ZIF-8@GQD as a tumor-specific, radio-enhancing, non-toxic, and controllable delivery system for in vivo cancer treatment was explored using immunocompromised C57BL/6 mice bearing human HT-29 tumors. RESULTS The large surface area of ZIF-8 (1013 m2 g-1) enabled successful loading of DOX with an encapsulation efficiency of approximately ∼90%. The synthesis of Apt-PEG-DOX/ZIF-8@GQD resulted in uniform particles with an average diameter of 100 nm. This targeted platform exhibited rapid decomposition under acidic conditions, facilitating an on-demand release of DOX after endosomal escape. In vitro experiments revealed that the biocompatible nano-platform induced selective toxicity in HT-29 cells by enhancing X-ray absorption. Moreover, in vivo experiments demonstrated that the therapeutic efficacy of Apt-PEG-ZIF-8/DOX@GQD against HT-29 tumors was enhanced through the synergistic effects of chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and targeted therapy, with minimal side effects. CONCLUSION The combination of Apt-PEG-DOX/ZIF-8@GQD with RT as a multimodal therapy approach demonstrated promising potential for the targeted treatment of CRC and enhancing therapeutic effectiveness. The co-delivery of DOX and GQD using this nano-platform holds great promise for improving the outcome of CRC treatment.

Abstract
Zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) nanoparticles loaded with polysaccharides are excellent drug-delivery carriers with high loading capacity and pH sensitivity. This study describes the one-step encapsulation of Dendrobium huoshanense polysaccharides (DHP) in ZIF-8. The resultant PEG6000/ZIF-8@DHP complex exhibited drug release properties in acidic microenvironments, possessed water solubility, demonstrated high drug loading capacity, and displayed effective encapsulation. The effects of PEG6000/ZIF-8@ DHP administration on immunoregulation, antioxidant activities, and resistance against Aeromonas veronii in channel catfish were assessed. The study revealed that the PEG6000/ZIF-8@DHP complex stimulated cellular proliferation and phagocytosis, while also inducing the production of cytokines and nitric oxide. Additionally, the complex exhibited improved antioxidant properties and increased serum lysozyme and alkaline phosphatase activities. PEG6000/ZIF-8@DHP exhibited efficacy in vivo against Aeromonas veronii infection. These results indicate that PEG6000/ZIF-8@DHP is an efficient immunostimulant and vaccine adjuvant for enhancing immunity in channel catfish.

Abstract
The field of nanomedicine is rapidly evolving, with new materials and formulations being reported almost daily. In this respect, inorganic and inorganic-organic composite nanomaterials have gained significant attention. However, the use of new materials in clinical trials and their final approval as drugs has been hampered by several challenges, one of which is the complex and difficult to control nanomaterial chemistry that takes place within the body. Several reviews have summarized investigations on inorganic nanomaterial stability in model body fluids, cell cultures, and organisms, focusing on their degradation as well as the influence of corona formation. However, in addition to these aspects, various chemical reactions of nanomaterials, including phase transformation and/or the formation of new/secondary nanomaterials, have been reported. In this review, we discuss recent advances in our understanding of biochemical transformations of medically relevant inorganic (composite) nanomaterials in environments related to their applications. We provide a refined terminology for the primary reaction mechanisms involved to bridge the gaps between different disciplines involved in this research. Furthermore, we highlight suitable analytical techniques that can be harnessed to explore the described reactions. Finally, we highlight opportunities to utilize them for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes and discuss current challenges and research priorities.

Abstract
Photothermal therapy (PTT) is an emerging non-invasive method used in cancer treatment. In PTT, near-infrared laser light is absorbed by a chromophore and converted into heat within the tumor tissue. PTT for cancer usually combines a variety of interactive plasmonic nanomaterials with laser irradiation. PTT enjoys PT agents with high conversion efficiency to convert light into heat to destroy malignant tissue. In this review, published studies concerned with the use of nanoparticles (NPs) in PTT were collected by a systematic and comprehensive search of PubMed, Cochrane, Embase, and Scopus databases. Gold, silver and iron NPs were the most frequent choice in PTT. The use of surface modified NPs allowed selective delivery and led to a precise controlled increase in the local temperature. The presence of NPs during PTT can increase the reactive generation of oxygen species, damage the DNA and mitochondria, leading to cancer cell death mainly via apoptosis. Many studies recently used core-shell metal NPs, and the effects of the polymer coating or ligands targeted to specific cellular receptors in order to increase PTT efficiency were often reported. The effective parameters (NP type, size, concentration, coated polymers or attached ligands, exposure conditions, cell line or type, and cell death mechanisms) were investigated individually. With the advances in chemical synthesis technology, NPs with different shapes, sizes, and coatings can be prepared with desirable properties, to achieve multimodal cancer treatment with precision and specificity.

Abstract
Nowadays, the hydrogen dressing and electrostatic spun films widely used on wounds do not facilitate the permeability of the wound area and fail to achieve controlled drug delivery. Therefore, finding a wound dressing with both breathability and targeted drug delivery has remained an unmet challenge. Here, an oriented microstructure membrane with sustained drug release and robust antibacterial performance was constructed through the microfluidic spinning method. The multifunctional oriented membrane was prepared by loading ascorbic acid onto the zeolitic metal-organic framework-8 to develop drug delivery nanomaterial zeolitic metal-organic framework-8 @ascorbic acid (ZIF-8 @AA) and then mixing ZIF-8 @AA with polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) solution via microfluidic technology, which produced an oriented microfiber member. In addition, the spinning parameters, including the fluid content, rotation speed, and flow rate, on microfiber diameter were evaluated. The constructed oriented membrane had bactericidal efficiencies of 82.94% ± 2.79% and 95.96% ± 1.54% against E. coli and S. aureus, respectively. After five days, the membrane still has a sustained release. Moreover, the fabricated membrane also has good biocompatibility and hemocompatibility in vitro. The oriented arrangement strategy provides a promising approach for wound healing materials in targeted drug delivery. Furthermore, this strategy offers a feasible idea for loading active materials into substrates for disease treatment in the biomedical field.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI), a prevalent and fatal adverse event, seriously affects cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. The most important pathological mechanism of AKI is oxidative stress from reactive oxygen species (ROS). Currently, ROS scavenging is a promising strategy to manage the risk of chemotherapy-induced AKI. Herein, we successfully synthesized SOD@ZIF-8 nanoparticles by biomimetic mineralization, which were taken up by cells and could improve cell viability by limiting oxidative stress damage, as found in in vitro studies. Moreover, SOD@ZIF-8 nanoparticles exhibit broad-spectrum antioxidant properties in addition to significant renal accumulation in AKI mice, preventing clinically related cisplatin-induced AKI in murine models. AKI alleviation in the model was validated by measuring blood serum, staining kidney tissue, and related biomarkers. SOD@ZIF-8 nanoparticle therapeutic efficiency exceeds NAC, a small molecular antioxidant functioning through free radical scavenging. The results suggest SOD@ZIF-8 nanoparticles as a potential therapeutic option for AKI and other ROS-related disorders.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have found increasing applications in the biomedical field due to their unique properties and high modularity. Although the limited stability of MOFs in biological environments is increasingly recognized, analytical techniques have not yet been harnessed to their full potential to assess the biological fate of MOFs. Here, we investigate the environment-dependent biochemical transformations of widely researched nanosized MOFs (nMOFs) under conditions relevant to their medical application. We assess the chemical stability of antimicrobial zinc-based drug delivery nMOFs (Zn-ZIF-8 and Zn-ZIF-8:Ce) and radio-enhancer candidate nMOFs (Hf-DBA, Ti-MIL-125, and TiZr-PCN-415) containing biologically nonessential group IV metal ions. We reveal that even a moderate decrease in pH to values encountered in lysosomes (pH 4.5-5) leads to significant dissolution of ZIF-8 and partial dissolution of Ti-MIL-125, whereas no substantial dissolution was observed for TiZr-PCN-415 and Hf-DBA nMOFs. Exposure to phosphate-rich buffers led to phosphate incorporation in all nMOFs, resulting in amorphization and morphological changes. Interestingly, long-term cell culture studies revealed that nMOF (bio)transformations of, e.g., Ti-MIL-125 were cellular compartment-dependent and that the phosphate content in the nMOF varied significantly between nMOFs localized in lysosomes and those in the cytoplasm. These results illustrate the delicate nature and environment-dependent properties of nMOFs across all stages of their life cycle, including storage, formulation, and application, and the need for in-depth analyses of biotransformations for an improved understanding of structure-function relationships. The findings encourage the considerate choice of suspension buffers for MOFs because these media may lead to significant material alterations prior to application.

Abstract
Effective immobilization and delivery of genetic materials is at the forefront of biological and medical research directed toward tackling scientific challenges such as gene therapy and cancer treatment. Herein we present a biologically inspired hydrogen-bonded zinc adeninate framework (ZAF) consisting of zinc adeninate macrocycles that self-assemble into a 3D framework through adenine-adenine interactions. ZAF can efficiently immobilize DNAzyme with full protection against enzyme degradation and physiological conditions until it is successfully delivered into the nucleus. As compared to zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs), ZAFs are twofold more biocompatible with a significant loading efficiency of 96 %. Overall, our design paves the way for expanding functional hydrogen-bonding-based systems as potential platforms for the loading and delivery of biologics.

Abstract
Poorly water-soluble drugs are frequently formulated with lipid-based formulations including microemulsions and their preconcentrates. We detailed the solidification of drug-loaded microemulsion preconcentrates with the acid-sensitive metal-organic framework ZIF-8 by X-ray powder diffraction and solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Adsorption and desorption dynamics were analyzed by fluorescence measurement, high-performance liquid chromatography, dynamic light scattering and 1H-DOSY experiments using the model compounds Nile Red, Vitamin K1, and Lumefantrine. Preconcentrates and drugs were successfully loaded onto ZIF-8 while preserving its crystal structure. The solid powder was pressable to tablets or 3D-printed into oral dosage forms. At low pH, colloidal solutions readily formed, solubilizing the poorly water-soluble compounds. The use of stimuli-responsive metal organic frameworks as carriers for the oral delivery of lipid-based formulations points towards solid dosage forms readily forming colloidal microemulsions.

Abstract
For the first time, low trace-level removal of perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS), i.e., 20-500 μg/L (ppb), from aqueous solutions using zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8)-coated copper sheet (ZIF-8@Cu) composite is reported here. In comparison with different commercial activated carbon (AC) and all-silica zeolites, the composite showed the highest removal rate of 98%, which remained consistent over a wide range of concentrations. Additionally, no adsorbent leaching from the composite was noticed, which eradicated pre-analysis steps such as filtration and centrifugation, unless needed for other adsorbents studied here. The composite displayed fast uptake with saturation reaching within 4 h, irrespective of the initial concentration. However, the morphological and structural characterization revealed surface degradation of ZIF-8 crystals, along with a decline in the crystal size. The adsorption of PFOS on ZIF-8 crystals was linked to chemisorption, as the surface degradation surges with an increase in PFOS concentration or with cyclic exposure at low concentrations. Methanol seemingly removed surface debris (partially), thus providing access to ZIF-8 beneath the surface debris. Overall, the findings demonstrate that at low trace ppb-level PFOS concentrations ZIF-8 can be considered as a possible candidate for PFOS removal, even though it suffers slow surface degradation, it also removes efficiently PFOS molecules from aqueous solutions.

Abstract
Although zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) has been applied in various tumor therapies, the intrinsic immunogenicity remains unclear. Here, we initiatively discover that ZIF-8 nanoparticles (NPs) can intrinsically induce pyroptosis by a caspase-1/gasdermin D (GSDMD)-dependent pathway. The pyroptotic cell death is accompanied by necrosis and immunogenic cell death (ICD) simultaneously for efficient in situ immunity initiation. Meanwhile, carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenyl hydrazone (CCCP), a mitochondrial depolarizing agent, is successfully loaded into ZIF-8 NPs and found to further enhance the pyroptosis process. Collectively, the obtained Pluronic F127-modified CCCP-incorporated ZIF-8 NPs (F127 ZIF-8CCCP NPs) activate antitumor immunity and reprogram immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME), realizing high-efficiency tumor growth inhibition. This work will facilitate biomedicine applications of ZIF-8 and provide good inspiration for pyroptosis-induced cancer therapy.

Abstract
Anticancer peptides (ACPs) are promising antitumor drugs owning to their great cancer cell targeting and anticancer effects as well as low drug resistance. However, many of the ACPs have non-specific toxicity and can be easily degraded by the enzymes after administration. Therefore, drug delivery systems (DDSs) are required to shield these peptides from degradation and induce targeted delivery. In this paper, a high performance microfluidic device was used to fabricate the zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8) encapsulating an ACP (At3) recently developed by our group. The microfluidic device allowed for efficient and rapid mixing to generate ACP loaded nanoparticles (NPs) with controllable properties at high production rate (120 mL/min) and high encapsulation efficiency. The ZIF-8 NPs synthesised by microfluidic processing showed lower polydispersity index (PDI) than the conventional method, demonstrating an improved size uniformity. Encapsulating At3 into the ZIF-8 (At3@ZIF-8) significantly reduced the hemolytic effect and provided a pH-controlled release of At3 peptide. At3@ZIF-8 showed higher anticancer effect than the unloaded peptide at the same concentration due to the enhanced cell uptake by the ZIF-8 NPs. The NPs were able to inhibit the growth of the multicellular tumour spheroids (MCTSs) and damage the mitochondrial membrane of the MCF-7 breast cancer cells. In vivo experiments demonstrated that the At3@ZIF-8 NPs inhibited the growth of MCF-7 tumours in nude mice without changing the biochemical properties of the blood or the histopathological properties of vital organs. Therefore, the development of At3 loaded NPs provides an alternative approach in ACP delivery which can broaden the application of ACP-based cancer therapy.

Abstract
Encapsulating antigens with zeolitic imidazole framework-8 (ZIF-8) exhibits many advantages in vaccine development. However, most viral antigens with complex particulate structures are sensitive to pH or ionic strength, which cannot tolerate harsh synthesis conditions of ZIF-8. Balancing the viral integrity and the growth of ZIF-8 crystals is crucial for the successful encapsulation of these environment-sensitive antigens in ZIF-8. Here, we explored the synthesis of ZIF-8 on inactivated foot and mouth disease virus (known as 146S), which is easily disassociated into no immunogenic subunits under the existing ZIF-8 synthesis conditions. Our results showed that intact 146S could be encapsulated into ZIF-8 with high embedding efficiency by lowering the pH of the 2-MIM solution to 9.0. The size and morphology of 146S@ZIF-8 could be further optimized by increasing the amount of Zn2+ or adding cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB). 146S@ZIF-8 with a uniform diameter of about 49 nm could be synthesized by adding 0.01% CTAB, which was speculated to be composed of single 146S armored with nanometer-scale ZIF-8 crystal networks. Plenty of histidine on the 146S surface forms a unique His-Zn-MIM coordination in the near vicinity of 146S particles, which greatly increases the thermostability of 146S by about 5 °C, and the nano-scale ZIF-8 crystal coating exhibited extraordinary stability to resist EDTE-treatment. More importantly, the well-controlled size and morphology enabled 146S@ZIF-8(0.01% CTAB) to facilitate antigen uptake. The immunization of 146S@ZIF-8(4×Zn2+) or 146S@ZIF-8(0.01% CTAB) significantly enhanced the specific antibody titers and promoted the differentiation of memory T cells without adding another immunopotentiator. This study reported for the first time the strategy of the synthesis of crystalline ZIF-8 on an environment-sensitive antigen and demonstrated that the nano-size and appropriate morphology of ZIF-8 are crucial to exert adjuvant effects, thus expanding the application of MOFs in vaccine delivery.

We developed a strategy to use lysozyme (Lys) as a template to produce mesoporous zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8) structures under physiological conditions. Thereafter, an amphiphilic triblock copolymer, PEG-PPG-PEG, was used to form protective core-shell ZIF-8 nanocomposite coatings to protect the encapsulated drug epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), to achieve notable antibacterial properties against E. coli, S. aureus and MRSA strains. Moreover, nanocomposites exhibited anti-inflammatory activity by counteracting the secretion of cytokines in THP-1 macrophages.

Abstract
As a potential therapeutic agent, the clinical application of S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) is limited because of its instability. Therefore, different formulations have been developed to protect GSNO from degradation, delivery and the release of GSNO at a physiological concentration in the active position. Due to the high water-solubility and small molecular-size of GSNO, the biggest challenges in the encapsulation step are low encapsulation efficiency and burst release. This review summarizes the different nano/micro-formulation strategies of a GSNO related delivery system to provide references for subsequent researchers interested in GSNO encapsulation.

Abstract
Celastrol (Cel), a compound derived from traditional Chinese medicine Tripterygium wilfordii Hook. F, has attracted considerable attention as an anticancer drug. However, its clinical application is limited due to its low bioavailability and potential toxicity. With the advancement of nanoscale metal organic frameworks (MOF), the nano-delivery of drugs can effectively improve those disadvantages. Nevertheless, hydrophobic drugs apparently cannot be encapsulated by the hydrophilic channels of MOF-based drug delivery systems. To address these issues, a new assembly strategy for hydrophobic Cel was developed by coordinating the deprotonated Cel to zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) with the assistance of triethylamine (Cel-ZIF-8). This strategy greatly elevates the assembly efficiency of Cel from less than 1% to ca. 80%. The resulted Cel-ZIF-8 remains stable in the physiological condition while dissociating and releasing Cel after a 45-minute incubation in an acidic tumor microenvironment (pH 5.5). Furthermore, Cel-ZIF-8 is proved to be easily taken up by cancer cells and exhibits a better therapeutic effect on tumor cells than free Cel. Overall, the Cel-ZIF-8 provides a novel assembly strategy for hydrophobic drugs, and the findings are envisaged to facilitate the application of Cel in cancer therapies.

Abstract
Heparin, the most widely used anticoagulant drug in the world today, suffers from the risk of overdose and a short serum half-life, limiting its clinical applications. Concerning the controlled, sustained, and targeted release of heparin, a delivery system was fabricated in this research using the layered composites of Fe3O4 magnetic particles and pH-sensitive metal-organic framework, Fe3O4@ZIF-8. The composite demonstrated a high loading capacity for the heparin, 66.8 mg/g. The composite had a saturation magnetization of 1.5 emu/g and thus owned a magnetic targeting function, i.e. drug can be centered at a certain point using an external magnetic field. The anticoagulant activity was assessed by monitoring their activated partial thromboplastin time. The results showed that the pH-responsive and sustained release of the heparin reduced the systemic adverse effects associated with high concentrations. Moreover, control over the dose exhibited excellent anticoagulant features with fewer side effects.

Abstract
Through high-temperature sintering and carbonization, two Co/ZnO nitrogen-doped porous carbon (NC) composites derived from ZIF-8 and ZIF-67 were manufactured for use as anodes for Li ion batteries: composite-type Co/ZnO-NC and core-shell-type Co@ZnO-NC. X-ray diffraction analysis, scanning electron microscopy, and the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) method were performed to identify the pore distribution and surface morphology of these composites. The findings of the BET method indicated that the specific surface area of Co/ZnO-NC was 350 m2/g, which was twice that of Co@ZnO-NC. Electrochemical measurements revealed that Co@ZnO-NC and Co/ZnO-NC had specific capacities of over 400 mAh g−1 at a current density 0.2 A g−1 after 50 cycles. After 100 cycles, Co/ZnO-NC exhibited a reversible capacity of 411 mAh g−1 at a current density of 0.2 A g−1 and Co@ZnO-NC had a reversible capacity of 246 mAh g−1 at a current density of 0.2 A g−1. The results indicated that Co/ZnO-NC exhibited superior electrochemical performance to Co@ZnO-NC as a potential anode for use in Li ion batteries.

Abstract
Metal Organic Frameworks (MOFs) are extensively used for a wide range of applications due to their exceptionally high surface area. MOF particles are conventionally in micron size, but the nanosized MOFs show good transportation/mobility due to their small size, and when combined with the high surface area of MOFs, it makes MOF nanoparticles an ideal candidate to study for environmental remediation. Therefore, it is important to study the ecotoxicological impact of these MOFs. In this study, we developed rhodamine labelled nanoparticles of zinc imidazolate metal organic framework (ZIF-8 MOFs) as a means of in vivo tracing the MOF translocation in C. elegans. Rhodamine B isothiocyanate functionalized ZIF-8 MOFs nanoparticles (RBITC@ZIF-8 MOF nanoparticles; size 44 ± 7 nm) were fed to the worms naturally within a concentration range of 0.16–16.4 μg mg−1. Fluorescence was detected in the pharyngeal and gut lumen regions of the worms after 4 h of treatment, for exposure concentrations >0.163 μg mg−1. A higher intensity of fluorescence was observed at the end of 24 h for all exposure concentrations. Worms treated with RBITC@ZIF-8 MOF concentrations of ≥1.63 μg mg−1 for 24 h showed a bright stable fluorescence signal at the tail region. The uptake of RBITC@ZIF-8 MOF for an exposure concentration of 0.163, 1.63, and 8.2 μg mg−1 was found to be 52.1, 11.4 and 28.6%, respectively. Through this study, we showed that RBITC@ZIF-8 MOFs can be exposed to C. elegans and imaged at low concentrations of ∼0.16 μg mg−1.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a new class of porous crystalline materials constructed from organic ligands and metal ions/clusters. Owing to their unique advantages, they have attracted more and more attention in recent years and numerous studies have revealed their great potential in various applications. Many important applications of MOFs inevitably involve harsh alkaline operational environments. To achieve high performance and long cycling life in these applications, high stability of MOFs against bases is necessary. Therefore, the construction of base-stable MOFs has become a critical research direction in the MOF field. This review gives a historic summary of the development of base-stable MOFs in the last few years. The key factors that can determine the robustness of MOFs under basic conditions are analyzed. We also demonstrate the exciting achievements that have been made by utilizing base-stable MOFs in different applications. In the end, we discuss major challenges for the further development of base-stable MOFs. Some possible methods to address these problems are presented.

Abstract
Hierarchically porous MIL-101(Cr) (H-MIL-101(Cr)) with meso/macro-pores was directly prepared via nanofusion progress by using butyric acid as a modulating agent. In the methyl orange (MO) adsorption experiments, H-MIL-101(Cr) showed a high adsorption capability of 369.8 mg g−1, which was 1.52-fold greater than that of pristine MIL-101(Cr) (P-MIL-101(Cr)). While in the oxidation reaction of indene and 1-dodecene tests, H-MIL-101(Cr) presented much higher catalytic efficiency, with turnover frequency (TOF) values of 0.7242 mmol g−1 min−1 and 0.1492 mmol g−1 min−1, respectively, which were 28% and 34% greater than that in the case of P-MIL-101(Cr). Thus, compared with P-MIL-101(Cr), H-MIL-101(Cr) exhibited better removal efficiency and higher levels of activity in the oxidation reactions of indene and 1-dodecene. The unique structure of H-MIL-101(Cr) also contributed to its superior performance in these processes.

Abstract
Zeolite imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) is a promising platform for drug delivery, and information regarding the stability of ZIF-8 nanoparticles in cell culture media is essential for proper interpretation of in vitro experimental results. In this work, we report a quantitative investigation of the ZIF-8 nanoparticle's stability in most common cell culture media. To this purpose, ZIF-8 nanoparticles containing sterically shielded nitroxide probes with high resistance to reduction were synthesized and studied using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR). The degradation of ZIF-8 in cell media was monitored by tracking the cargo leakage. It was shown that nanoparticles degrade at least partially in all studied media, although the degree of cargo leakage varies widely. We found a strong correlation between the amount of escaped cargo and total concentration of amino acids in the environment. We also established the role of individual amino acids in ZIF-8 degradation. Finally, 2-methylimidazole preliminary dissolved in cell culture media partially inhibits the degradation of ZIF-8 nanoparticles. The guidelines for choosing the proper cell culture medium for the in vitro study of ZIF-8 nanoparticles have been formulated.

Abstract
Herein we report the synthesis of a zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8) by an easy "mix and wait" procedure. In a closed vial, without any interference, the mixture of 2-methylimidazole and basic zinc carbonate assembles into the crystalline product with approx. 90% conversion after 70 h. The reaction exhibits sigmoidal kinetics due to the self-generated water which accelerates the reaction.

Abstract
A classical atomistic simulation study is reported for the microscopic structure and dynamics of a water/methanol mixture confined in flexible nanoporous zeolitic imidazolate framework ZIF-8. Both the radial density distribution and vivid two-dimensional density profile demonstrate that methanol molecules can roughly be viewed as "embedded" between two layers of water molecules to form a "sandwich" structure. The reason for the formation of such a specific structure is explained based on the hydrogen-bonding state and the strength of various hydrogen bonds. The investigation of guest molecular diffusion shows that the self-diffusion coefficient of confined water is generally one to two orders of magnitude smaller than that of bulk water. In addition, the dependence of the self-diffusion coefficient on loading is non-monotonic: the self-diffusion coefficient firstly shows a significant increase and then decreases at higher loading. Moreover, both the structure and dynamics of the hydrogen bond (HB) network of confined water molecules are investigated in a spatially resolved manner. The results indicate that both the HB structure and dynamics of water molecules near the ZIF-8 surface deviate significantly from those of bulk water. However, while water molecules located at the pore center are relatively similar to bulk water molecules with respect to the HB structure, they exhibit strong slowdown in HB dynamics when compared with bulk water. This simulation study elucidates in detail the structural and dynamical properties of a water/methanol mixture in nanoscopic ZIF-8 confinement, which is expected to provide a deep insight into the role of porous fillers, such as ZIF-8, in improving the performance of the dehydration of alcohols via pervaporation and other related processes.

Abstract
In the current study, we report the microfluidic synthesis of a metal-organic framework (MOF) for insulin delivery based on the stimulus response of glucose. Insulin- and gold nanoparticle (AuNP)-encapsulated zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) was synthesized using a continuous-flow, microfluidic mixing system via a single-step process. Glucose oxidase mimicking the activity of AuNPs was utilized for oxidizing glucose molecules that entered the porous ZIF-8. The AuNPs oxidized glucose into gluconic acid and hydrogen peroxide inside the MOF (Ins-AuNP-ZIF-8). The resulting acidic pH led to the disruption of ZIF-8 and released insulin. Thus, the presence of glucose molecules provided a stimulus for insulin release. The bioactive MOFs were characterized for the presence of functional groups, morphology, crystallinity, size, and elemental confirmation. The presence of fluorescein-5-isothiocyanate-labeled insulin in the composite was confirmed using confocal laser scanning microscopy. The loading of insulin per unit weight of the MOF, determined by size-exclusion-high-performance liquid chromatography, was 77 and 88% in the batch and microfluidic processes, respectively. Drug release studies confirmed the response of the MOFs to glucose, which triggered insulin release. The synthesis process did not affect the characteristics and application of ZIF-8 and Ins-AuNP-ZIF-8. This study involving the facile synthesis of bioactive MOFs offers a sustainable strategy to design stimulus-responsive drug delivery systems and could be exploited for biosensing applications.

Abstract
Metal organic framework (MOF)-nanocages (MOF-NCs) in the form of zinc-based nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized as drug carriers for the purpose of wound healing. The prepared NCs (single and bi-metallic with silver-MOF) were based on zinc and they were loaded with ascorbic acid (vitamin C) as a model drug which accelerates wound healing. The NCs were then investigated by several characterization techniques such as XRD, TEM, FTIR and BET surface area. Furthermore, the release behavior of the loaded ascorbic acid from the developed NCs was measured in phosphate buffer solution (PBS). NCs antibacterial activity was tested against strain of gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus ATCC- 29213, Streptococcus pyogenes ATCC-19615 and Bacillus subtilis ATCC-6633), gram-negative bacteria strain (Pseudomonas aeruginosaATCC-27853and Escherichia coli ATCC-25922) and fungi (Candida albicans ATCC-10231).The physicochemical features of the NCs were confirmed by the results obtained from XRD and FTIR measurements. The particle size of the NCs was confirmed to be in the range of 30-50 nm. Prolonged drug release that was combined with impressive antibacterial activities, and good wound healing rates were also recognized for the zinc based NCs in comparison to commonly used Ag NPs. It is concluded that the current NCs are potentially suitable for wound healing and drug delivery applications.

Abstract
The dentin matrix is a collagenous scaffold structurally involved in anchoring resin-based materials to the tooth. Time-dependent degradation of this scaffold at the resin-dentin interface remains a core problem in adhesive dentistry, limiting the service life of dental fillings. This study explored the use of emergent materials termed metal-organic frameworks (MOFs)─formed by the self-assembly of metal ions and organic building blocks─to safeguard the collagen integrity in the functional dentin matrix. We demonstrate that collagen fibrils (from demineralized human dentin) can induce the biomimetic growth of MOF crystals as protective coatings to strengthen and stabilize the fibrils. Zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8), a zinc-based microporous MOF, was used to fabricate the MOF composites via a "one-pot" reaction in water. The ZIF-modified dentin matrix presented superior mechanical strength and resistance to proteolysis, which can positively affect the longevity of collagen as an anchoring substrate. This work identifies a potential biomedical application of biomimetically synthesized MOFs in repairing dental tissues critical to restorative therapies.
