Abstract
Phenolic compounds (PCs) are diverse in nature and undergo complex migration and transformations in the environment, making it challenging to use techniques such as chromatography and other traditional methods to determine the concentration of PCs by separation, individual monitoring and subsequent addition. To address this issue, a facile and on-site strategy was developed to measure the concentration of PCs using a novel nanozyme with polyphenol oxidase-like activity. First, the nanozyme was designed by coordinating the asymmetric ligand nicotinic acid with copper to mimic the structure of mononuclear and trinuclear copper clusters of natural laccases. Subsequently, by introducing 2-mercaptonicotinic acid to regulate the valence state of copper, the composite nanozyme CuNA10S was obtained with significantly enhanced activity. Interestingly, CuNA10S was shown to have a broad substrate spectrum capable of catalyzing common PCs. Building upon the superior performance of this nanozyme, a method was developed to determine the concentration of PCs. To enable rapid on-site sensing, we designed and prepared CuNA10S-based test strips and developed a tailored smartphone sensing platform. Using paper strip sensors combined with a smartphone sensing platform with RGB streamlined the sensing process, facilitating rapid on-site analysis of PCs within a range of 0-100 μM. Our method offers a solution for the quick screening of phenolic wastewater at contaminated sites, allowing sensitive and quick monitoring of PCs without the need for standard samples. This significantly simplifies the monitoring procedure compared to more cumbersome large-scale instrumental methods.

A Self-Catalytic NO/O 2 Gas-Releasing Nanozyme for Radiotherapy Sensitization through Vascular Normalization and Hypoxia Relief. ADVANCED MATERIALS (DEERFIELD BEACH, FLA.) 2024:e2403921.

Abstract
Radiotherapy (RT), essential for treating various cancers, faces challenges from tumor hypoxia, which induces radioresistance. A tumor-targeted "prosthetic-Arginine" coassembled nanozyme system, engineered to catalytically generate nitric oxide (NO) and oxygen (O2) in the tumor microenvironment (TME), overcoming hypoxia and enhancing radiosensitivity is presented. This system integrates the prosthetic heme of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) and catalase (CAT) with NO-donating Fmoc-protected Arginine and Ru3+ ions, creating HRRu nanozymes that merge NOS and CAT functionalities. Surface modification with human heavy chain ferritin (HFn) improves the targeting ability of nanozymes (HRRu-HFn) to tumor tissues. In the TME, strategic arginine incorporation within the nanozyme allows autonomous O2 and NO release, triggered by endogenous hydrogen peroxide, elevating NO and O2 levels to normalize vasculature and improve blood perfusion, thus mitigating hypoxia. Employing the intrinsic O2-transporting ability of heme, HRRu-HFn nanozymes also deliver O2 directly to the tumor site. Utilizing esophageal squamous cell carcinoma as a tumor model, the studies reveal that the synergistic functions of NO and O2 production, alongside targeted delivery, enable the HRRu-HFn nanozymes to combat tumor hypoxia and potentiate radiotherapy. This HRRu-HFn nanozyme based approach holds the potential to reduce the radiation dose required and minimize side effects associated with conventional radiotherapy.

Nanozyme-based colorimetric sensor arrays coupling with smartphone for discrimination and "segmentation-extraction-regression" deep learning assisted quantification of flavonoids. Biosens Bioelectron 2024; 263:116604. [PMID: 39094293 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2024.116604] [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: 04/21/2024] [Revised: 06/26/2024] [Accepted: 07/23/2024] [Indexed: 08/04/2024]
Abstract
Achieving rapid, cost effective, and intelligent identification and quantification of flavonoids is challenging. For fast and uncomplicated flavonoid determination, a sensing platform of smartphone-coupled colorimetric sensor arrays (electronic noses) was developed, relying on the differential competitive inhibition of hesperidin, nobiletin, and tangeretin on the oxidation reactions of nanozymes with a 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine substrate. First, density functional theory calculations predicted the enhanced peroxidase-like activities of CeO2 nanozymes after doping with Mn, Co, and Fe, which was then confirmed by experiments. The self-designed mobile application, Quick Viewer, enabled a rapid evaluation of the red, green, and blue values of colorimetric images using a multi-hole parallel acquisition strategy. The sensor array based on three channels of CeMn, CeFe, and CeCo was able to discriminate between different flavonoids from various categories, concentrations, mixtures, and the various storage durations of flavonoid-rich Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium through a linear discriminant analysis. Furthermore, the integration of a "segmentation-extraction-regression" deep learning algorithm enabled single-hole images to be obtained by segmenting from a 3 × 4 sensing array to augment the featured information of array images. The MobileNetV3-small neural network was trained on 37,488 single-well images and achieved an excellent predictive capability for flavonoid concentrations (R2 = 0.97). Finally, MobileNetV3-small was integrated into a smartphone as an application (Intelligent Analysis Master), to achieve the one-click output of three concentrations. This study developed an innovative approach for the qualitative and simultaneous multi-ingredient quantitative analysis of flavonoids.

Abstract
Bacterial therapy is recognized as a cost-effective treatment for several diseases. However, its development is hindered by limited functionality, weak inherent therapeutic effects, and vulnerability to harsh microenvironmental conditions, leading to suboptimal treatment activity. Enhancing bacterial activity and therapeutic outcomes emerges as a pivotal challenge. Nanozymes have garnered significant attention due to their enzyme-mimic activities and high stability. They enable bacteria to mimic the functions of gene-edited bacteria expressing the same functional enzymes, thereby improving bacterial activity and therapeutic efficacy. This review delineates the therapeutic mechanisms of bacteria and nanozymes, followed by a summary of strategies for preparing bacteria/nanozyme composites. Additionally, the synergistic effects of such composites in biomedical applications such as gastrointestinal diseases and tumors are highlighted. Finally, the challenges of bacteria/nanozyme composites are discussed and propose potential solutions. This study aims to provide valuable insights to offer theoretical guidance for the advancement of nanomaterial-assisted bacterial therapy.

Abstract
Hypoxia is a critical factor for restricting photodynamic therapy (PDT) of tumor, and it becomes increasingly severe with increasing tissue depth. Thus, the relief of deep tumor hypoxia is extremely important to improve the PDT efficacy. Herein, tumor microenvironment (TME)-responsive size-switchable hyaluronic acid-hybridized Ru nanoaggregates (HA@Ru NAs) were developed via screening reaction temperature to alleviate deep tumor hypoxia for improving the tumor-specific PDT by the artful integration multiple bioactivated chemical reactions in situ and receptor-mediated targeting (RMT). In this nanosystem, Ru NPs not only enabled HA@Ru NAs to have near infrared (NIR)-mediated photothermal/photodynamic functions, but also could catalyze endogenous H2O2 to produce O2 in situ. More importantly, hyaluronidase (HAase) overexpressed in the TME could trigger disassembly of HA@Ru NAs via the hydrolysis of HA, offering the smart size switch capability from 60 to 15 nm for enhancing tumor penetration. Moreover, the RMT characteristics of HA ensured that HA@Ru NAs could specially enter CD44-overexpressed tumor cells, enhancing tumor-specific precision of phototherapy. Taken together these distinguishing characteristics, smart HA@Ru NAs successfully realized the relief of deep tumor hypoxia to improve the tumor-specific PDT.

Abstract
Recent developments in exploring the biological enzyme mimicking properties in nanozymes have opened a separate avenue, which provides a suitable alternative to the natural antioxidants and enzymes. Due to high and tunable catalytic activity, low cost of synthesis, easy surface modification, and good biocompatibility, nanozymes have garnered significant research interest globally. Several inorganic nanomaterials have been investigated to exhibit catalytic activities of some of the key natural enzymes, including superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, glutathione peroxidase, peroxidase, and oxidase, etc. These nanozymes are used for diverse biomedical applications including therapeutics, imaging, and biosensing in various cells/tissues and animal models. In particular, inflammation-related diseases are closely associated with reactive oxygen and reactive nitrogen species, and therefore effective antioxidants could be excellent therapeutics due to their free radical scavenging ability. Although biological enzymes and other artificial antioxidants could perform well in scavenging the reactive oxygen and nitrogen species, however, suffer from several drawbacks such as the requirement of strict physiological conditions for enzymatic activity, limited stability in the environment beyond their optimum pH and temperature, and high cost of synthesis, purification, and storage make then unattractive for broad-spectrum applications. Therefore, this review systematically and comprehensively presents the free radical-mediated evolution of various inflammatory diseases (inflammatory bowel disease, mammary gland fibrosis, and inflammation, acute injury of the liver and kidney, mammary fibrosis, and cerebral ischemic stroke reperfusion) and their mitigation by various antioxidant nanozymes in the biological system. The mechanism of free radical scavenging by antioxidant nanozymes under in vitro and in vivo experimental models and catalytic efficiency comparison with corresponding natural enzymes has also been presented.

Abstract
Nanomaterials with more than one enzyme-like activity are termed multienzymic nanozymes, and they have received increasing attention in recent years and hold huge potential to be applied in diverse fields, especially for biosensing and therapeutics. Compared to single enzyme-like nanozymes, multienzymic nanozymes offer various unique advantages, including synergistic effects, cascaded reactions, and environmentally responsive selectivity. Nevertheless, along with these merits, the catalytic mechanism and rational design of multienzymic nanozymes are more complicated and elusive as compared to single-enzymic nanozymes. In this review, the multienzymic nanozymes classification scheme based on the numbers/types of activities, the internal and external factors regulating the multienzymatic activities, the rational design based on chemical, biomimetic, and computer-aided strategies, and recent progress in applications attributed to the advantages of multicatalytic activities are systematically discussed. Finally, current challenges and future perspectives regarding the development and application of multienzymatic nanozymes are suggested. This review aims to deepen the understanding and inspire the research in multienzymic nanozymes to a greater extent.

Abstract
Laccase, a member of the copper oxidase family, has been used as a green catalyst in the environmental and biochemical industries. However, laccase nanoenzymes are limited to materials with copper as the active site, and noncopper laccase nanoenzymes have been scarcely reported. In this study, inspired by the multiple copper active sites of natural laccase and the redox Cu2+/Cu+ electron transfer pathway, a novel nitrogen/nickel single-atom nanoenzyme (N/Ni SAE) with high laccase-like activity was prepared by inducing Ni and dopamine precipitation through a controllable water/ethanol interface reaction. Compared with that of laccase, the laccase activity simulated by N/Ni SAE exhibited excellent stability and reusability. The N/Ni SAE exhibited a higher efficiency toward the degradation of 2,4-dichlorophenol, hydroquinone, bisphenol A, and p-aminobenzene. In addition, a sensitive electrochemical biosensor was constructed by leveraging the laccase-like activity of N/Ni SAE; this sensor offered unique advantages in terms of catalytic activity, selectivity, stability, and repeatability. Its detection ranges for quercetin were 0.01-0.1 and 1.0-100 μM, and the detection limit was 3.4 nM. It was also successfully used for the quantitative detection of quercetin in fruit juices. Therefore, the single-atom biomimetic nanoenzymes prepared in this study promote the development of a new electrochemical strategy for the detection of various bioactive molecules and show great potential for practical applications.

[PMID: 38352675 PMCID: PMC10862099 DOI: 10.1039/d3ra07587g] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/07/2023] [Accepted: 02/08/2024] [Indexed: 02/16/2024] Open
Abstract
The current research presents novel sensors based on laccase-like mimetics for the detection of dopamine (DA). The synthesized laccase-like nanozymes (nAuCu, nPtCu, nCuMnCo, and nCoCuCe) were prepared by a simple hydrothermal method and exhibited an attractive catalytic activity toward DA. The developed amperometric sensors based on laccase nanozymes (nAuCu and nPtCu) are more stable, selective, and revealed a higher sensitivity (6.5-fold than the biosensor based on the natural fungal laccase from Trametes zonata). The amperometric sensors were obtained by modification of the glassy carbon electrodes (GCEs) with AuPt nanoparticles. Functionalization of the electrode surface by AuPt NPs resulted in increased catalytic activity of the laccase-like layer and higher sensitivity. Among studied configurations, the sensor containing nAuCu and nAuPt possesses a wide linear range for dopamine detection (10-170 μM), the lowest limit of detection (20 nM), and the highest sensitivity (10 650 ± 8.3 A M-1 m-2) at a low applied potential (+0.2 V versus Ag/AgCl). The proposed simple and cost-effective sensor electrode was used for the determination of DA in pharmaceuticals.

Abstract
Exosomes are 30-150 nm vesicles derived from diverse cell types, serving as one of the most important biomarkers for early diagnosis and prognosis of diseases. However, the conventional detection method for exosomes faces significant challenges, such as unsatisfactory sensitivity, complicated operation, and the requirement of complicated devices. In recent years, colorimetric exosome biosensors with a visual readout underwent rapid development due to the advances in natural enzyme-based assays and the integration of various types of nanozymes. These synthetic nanomaterials show unique physiochemical properties and catalytic abilities, enabling the construction of exosome colorimetric biosensors with novel principles. This review will illustrate the reaction mechanisms and properties of natural enzymes and nanozymes, followed by a detailed introduction of the recent advances in both types of enzyme-based colorimetric biosensors. A comparison between natural enzymes and nanozymes is made to provide insights into the research that improves the sensitivity and convenience of assays. Finally, the advantages, challenges, and future directions of enzymes as well as exosome colorimetric biosensors are highlighted, aiming at improving the overall performance from different approaches.

Abstract
Nanozymes, an unusual category of nanomaterials possessing enzymatic properties, and have generated considerable interest regarding their application feasibilities on several important fronts. In the present work, an innovative sensing device for catechol was established ground on a fluorescent nanozyme (Cu-BDC-NH2) that exhibited catechol oxidase activity. The fluorescent nanozyme combines both functions of catechol recognition and response signal output, and can realize the sensing of catechol without the addition of other chromogenic agents. In the existence of Cu-BDC-NH2, catechol can be oxidized efficiently to produce quinones or polymers with strong electron absorption capacity, which immediately results in efficient fluorescence quenching of Cu-BDC-NH2. However, other common phenolic compounds, such as phenol, the other two diphenols (hydroquinone and resorcinol), phloroglucinol, and chlorophenol, do not result in efficient fluorescence quenching of Cu-BDC-NH2. The method shows a nice linear relationship between catechol concentration prep the fluorescence intensity of Cu-BDC-NH2 in the scope of 0-10 μM, with a detection limit of 0.997 μM. The detection of catechol in actual water samples has also achieved the satisfactory consequences, which provides a new strategy for the convenient and selective detection of catechol.

Abstract
Since the catalyst's surface was the major active location, the inner structure's contribution to catalytic activity was typically overlooked. Here, ZnO-Co3O4-v nanozymes with several surfaces and bulk oxygen vacancies were created. The O atoms of H2O2 moved inward to preferentially fill the oxygen vacancies in the interior and form new "lattice oxygen" by the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy depth analysis and X-ray absorption fine structure. The internal Co2+ continually transferred electrons to the surface for a continuous catalytic reaction, which generated a significant amount of reactive oxygen species. Inner and outer double-layer electron cycles accompanied this process. A three-dimensional model of ZnO-Co3O4-v was constructed using virtual reality interactive modelling technology to illustrate nanozyme catalysis. Moreover, the bactericidal rate of ZnO-Co3O4-v for Methionine-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Multiple drug resistant Escherichia coli was as high as 99%. ZnO-Co3O4-v was biocompatible and might be utilized to heal wounds following Methionine-resistant Staphylococcus aureus infection. This work offered a new idea for nanozymes to replace of conventional antibacterial medications.

Abstract
Surface antibacterial coatings with outstanding antibacterial efficiency have attracted increasing attention in medical protective clothing and cotton surgical clothing. Although nanozymes, as a new generation of antibiotics, are used to combat bacteria, their catalytic performance remains far from satisfactory as alternatives to natural enzymes. Single-atom nanodots provide a solution to the low catalytic activity bottleneck of nanozymes. Here, atomically thin C3 N4 nanodots supported single Cu atom nanozymes (Cu-CNNDs) are developed by a self-tailoring approach, which exhibits catalytic efficiency of 8.09 × 105 M-1 s-1 , similar to that of natural enzyme. Experimental and theoretical calculations show that excellent peroxidase-like activity stems from the size effect of carrier optimizing the coordination structure, leading to full exposure of Cu-N3 active site, which improves the ability of H2 O2 to generate hydroxyl radicals (•OH). Notably, Cu-CNNDs exhibit over 99% superior antibacterial efficacy and are successfully grafted onto cotton fabrics. Thus, Cu-CNNDs blaze an avenue for exquisite biomimetic nanozyme design and have great potential applications in antibacterial textiles.

Abstract
Nanozymes show great promise in enhancing disease biomarker sensing by leveraging their physicochemical properties and enzymatic activities. These qualities facilitate signal amplification and matrix effects reduction, thus boosting biomarker sensing performance. In this review, recent studies from the last five years, concentrating on disease biomarker detection improvement through nanozyme-based biosensing are examined. This enhancement primarily involves the modulations of the size, morphology, doping, modification, electromagnetic mechanisms, electron conduction efficiency, and surface plasmon resonance effects of nanozymes for increased sensitivity. In addition, a comprehensive description of the synthesis and tuning strategies employed for nanozymes has been provided. This includes a detailed elucidation of their catalytic mechanisms in alignment with the fundamental principles of enhanced sensing technology, accompanied by the presentation of quantitatively analyzed results. Moreover, the diverse applications of nanozymes in strip sensing, colorimetric sensing, electrochemical sensing, and surface-enhanced Raman scattering have been outlined. Additionally, the limitations, challenges, and corresponding recommendations concerning the application of nanozymes in biosensing have been summarized. Furthermore, insights have been offered into the future development and outlook of nanozymes for biosensing. This review aims to serve not only as a reference for enhancing the sensitivity of nanozyme-based biosensors but also as a catalyst for exploring nanozyme properties and their broader applications in biosensing.

Abstract
Lateral flow assays (LFAs) are currently the most widely used point-of-care testing technique with remarkable advantages such as simple operation, rapid analysis, portability, and low cost. Traditionally, gold nanoparticles are employed as tracer element in LFAs due to their strong localised surface plasmon resonance. However, this conventional LFA technique based on colorimetric analysis is neither useful to determine critical analytes with desired sensitivity, nor can it quantify the analytes. Various signal amplification strategies have been proposed to improve the sensitivity and the quantitative determination of analytes using LFAs. One of the promising strategies is to enhance the photothermal properties of nanomaterials to generate heat after light irradiation, followed by a temperature measurement to detect and quantify the analyte concentration. Recently, it has been observed that the nanoscale architecture of materials, including size, shape, and nanoscale composition, plays a significant role in enhancing the photothermal properties of nanomaterials. In this review, we discuss the nanoarchitectonics of nanomaterials regarding enhanced photothermal properties and their application in LFAs. Initially, we discuss various important photothermal materials and their classification along with their working principle. Then, we highlight important aspects of the nanoscale architecture (i.e., size, shape, and composition) to enable maximum light-to-heat conversion efficiency. Finally, we discuss some of the recent advances in photothermal LFAs and their application in detecting analytes.

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

Abstract
Nanomaterials that mimic the catalytic activity of natural enzymes in the complex biological environment of the human body are called nanozymes. Recently, nanozyme systems have been reported with diagnostic, imaging, and/or therapeutic capabilities. Smart nanozymes strategically exploit the tumor microenvironment (TME) by the in situ generation of reactive species or by the modulation of the TME itself to result in effective cancer therapy. This topical review focuses on such smart nanozymes for cancer diagnosis, and therapy modalities with enhanced therapeutic effects. The dominant factors that guide the rational design and synthesis of nanozymes for cancer therapy include an understanding of the dynamic TME, structure-activity relationships, surface chemistry for imparting selectivity, and site-specific therapy, and stimulus-responsive modulation of nanozyme activity. This article presents a comprehensive analysis of the subject including the diverse catalytic mechanisms of different types of nanozyme systems, an overview of the TME, cancer diagnosis, and synergistic cancer therapies. The strategic application of nanozymes in cancer treatment can well be a game changer in future oncology. Moreover, recent developments may pave the way for the deployment of nanozyme therapy into other complex healthcare challenges, such as genetic diseases, immune disorders, and ageing.

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

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been widely used as nanozymes with a great development prospect due to their unique advantages. It is known that the current Fe-based or Cu-based MOF, etc., exhibits the catalytic activity of nanozymes through the Fenton catalytic reaction. And the conversion efficiency of the Fe3+/Fe2+ or Cu2+/Cu+ cycle is key to the catalytic activity. Therefore, we proposed a novel co-catalytic method to promote the reaction rate of the rate-limiting step of Cu2+/Cu+ conversion in the Fenton reaction of Cu2+/H2O2 to enhance the catalytic activity of the nanozymes. As a proof of concept, the MoCu-2MI nanozyme with high catalytic activity was successfully synthesized using Mo-doped Cu-2MI (2-methylimidazole). By using 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) as the chromogenic substrate, MoCu-2MI exhibited higher peroxidase-like activity than pure Cu-2MI. Then, it was confirmed that the newly introduced Mo played a crucial co-catalytic role by characterizing the possible catalytic mechanism. Specifically, Mo acted as a co-catalyst to accelerate the electron transfer in the system, and then promote the Cu2+/Cu+ cycle in the Cu-Fenton reaction, which was conducive to accelerating the production of a large number of reactive oxygen species (ROS) from H2O2, and finally improve the activity. Ultimately, a biosensor platform combined with MoCu-2MI and cholesterol oxidase realized the one-step colorimetric detection of cholesterol in the range of 2-140 μM with the detection limit as low as 1.2 μM. This study provides a new strategy for regulating the activity of MOF nanozymes.

Abstract
With the rapid development of nanotechnology, nanozymes are regarded as excellent substitutes for natural enzymes due to their high activity, convenient preparation, low cost, robust stability and other unique properties of nanomaterials. In biomedical applications, the always-on activity of nanozymes is undesirable as it poses a potential threat to normal tissues. Stimuli-responsive nanozymes were designed to manipulate the activities of nanozymes. This review introduces two types of stimuli-responsive nanozymes. One is smart responsive nanozymes with stimuli-switchable activities, further divided into those with on/off switchable activity and one/another switchable activity. Another is nanozymes exhibiting responsive release from specific carriers. Additionally, the biomedical applications of stimuli-responsive nanozymes in cancer therapy, antibacterial therapy, biosensing and anti-inflammatory therapy are briefly reviewed. Finally, we address the challenges and prospects in this field.

Abstract
Platinum nanoparticles (Pt NPs) have numerous applications in various sectors, including pharmacology, nanomedicine, cancer therapy, radiotherapy, biotechnology and environment mitigation like removal of toxic metals from wastewater, photocatalytic degradation of toxic compounds, adsorption, and water splitting. The multifaceted applications of Pt NPs because of their ultra-fine structures, large surface area, tuned porosity, coordination-binding, and excellent physiochemical properties. The various types of nanohybrids (NHs) of Pt NPs can be fabricated by doping with different metal/metal oxide/polymer-based materials. There are several methods to synthesize platinum-based NHs, but biological processes are admirable because of green, economical, sustainable, and non-toxic. Due to the robust physicochemical and biological characteristics of platinum NPs, they are widely employed as nanocatalyst, antioxidant, antipathogenic, and anticancer agents. Indeed, Pt-based NHs are the subject of keen interest and substantial research area for biomedical and clinical applications. Hence, this review systematically studies antimicrobial, biological, and environmental applications of platinum and platinum-based NHs, predominantly for treating cancer and photo-thermal therapy. Applications of Pt NPs in nanomedicine and nano-diagnosis are also highlighted. Pt NPs-related nanotoxicity and the potential and opportunity for future nano-therapeutics based on Pt NPs are also discussed.

Abstract
Besides being a luminescent material, cytidine 5'-monophosphate-capped gold nanoclusters (AuNCs@CMP) also show superior peroxidase-like activity which can promote TMB oxidation in the presence of H2O2, causing the solution to turn efficiently from pale to blue. However, the presence of perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) in the above system inhibited TMB oxidation and bluing of the solution, consequently establishing a colorimetric platform of AuNCs/H2O2/TMB for PFOS determination. The results showed that it responded to PFOS over a wide range of 2.0-50 μM, with a limit of detection (LOD) as low as 150 nM. Furthermore, in-depth mechanism investigation revealed that, rather than the active site of the catalyst being occupied by PFOS, such a hypochromatic effect originated from depletion of the reactive oxygen species (ROS) by PFOS degradation, thereby also offering a unique strategy to scavenge the lethal toxicity of PFOS. In addition, the colorimetric response of AuNCs/H2O2/TMB to PFOS was extended to smartphone determination conveniently based on RGB values. Finally, the established platform was applied to PFOS determination both in soil extracts and in tap water with good recovery, which supplies a novel colorimetric platform for visual determination of PFOS in practice. The method has the advantages of being rapid, sensitive and highly selective, which highlight the design and construction of more systems for determination and elimination of lethal pollutants in environmental water.

Abstract
With the threat posed by drug-resistant pathogenic bacteria, developing non-antibiotic strategies for eradicating clinically prevalent superbugs remains challenging. Ferroptosis is a newly discovered form of regulated cell death that can overcome drug resistance. Emerging evidence shows the potential of triggering ferroptosis-like for antibacterial therapy, but the direct delivery of iron species is inefficient and may cause detrimental effects. Herein, an effective strategy to induce bacterial nonferrous ferroptosis-like by coordinating single-atom metal sites (e.g., Ir and Ru) into the sp2 -carbon-linked covalent organic framework (sp2 c-COF-Ir-ppy2 and sp2 c-COF-Ru-bpy2 ) is reported. Upon activating by light irradiation or hydrogen peroxide, the as-constructed Ir and Ru single-atom catalysts (SACs) can significantly expedite intracellular reactive oxygen species burst, enhance glutathione depletion-related glutathione peroxidase 4 deactivation, and disturb the nitrogen and respiratory metabolisms, leading to lipid peroxidation-driven ferroptotic damage. Both SAC inducers show potent antibacterial activity against Gram-positive bacteria, Gram-negative bacteria, clinically isolated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), and biofilms, as well as excellent biocompatibility and strong therapeutic and preventive potential in MRSA-infected wounds and abscesses. This delicate nonferrous ferroptosis-like strategy may open up new insights into the therapy of drug-resistant pathogen infection.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species-mediated therapeutic strategies, including chemodynamic therapy (CDT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT), have exhibited translational promise for effective cancer management. However, monotherapy often ends up with the incomplete elimination of the entire tumor due to inherent limitations. Herein, we report a core-shell-structured Pd1.7Bi@CeO2-ICG (PBCI) nanoplatform constructed by a facile and effective strategy for synergistic CDT, PDT, and photothermal therapy. In the system, both Pd1.7Bi and CeO2 constituents exhibit peroxidase- and catalase-like characteristics, which not only generate cytotoxic hydroxyl radicals (•OH) for CDT but also produce O2 in situ and relieve tumor hypoxia for enhanced PDT. Furthermore, upon 808 nm laser irradiation, Pd1.7Bi@CeO2 and indocyanine green (ICG) coordinately prompt favorable photothermia, resulting in thermodynamically amplified catalytic activities. Meanwhile, PBCI is a contrast agent for near-infrared fluorescence imaging to determine the optimal laser therapeutic window in vivo. Consequently, effective tumor elimination was realized through the above-combined functions. The as-synthesized unitary PBCI theranostic nanoplatform represents a potential one-size-fits-all approach in multimodal synergistic therapy of hypoxic tumors.

Abstract
Nanotechnology has emerged as a promising approach for the targeted delivery of therapeutic agents while improving their efficacy and safety. As a result, nanomaterial development for the selective targeting of cancers, with the possibility of treating off-target, detrimental sequelae caused by chemotherapy, is an important area of research. Breast and ovarian cancer are among the most common cancer types in women, and chemotherapy is an essential treatment modality for these diseases. However, chemotherapy-induced neurotoxicity, neuropathy, and cardiomyopathy are common side effects that can affect breast and ovarian cancer survivors quality of life. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop effective prevention and treatment strategies for these adverse effects. Nanoparticles (NPs) have extreme potential for enhancing therapeutic efficacy but require continued research to elucidate beneficial interventions for women cancer survivors. In short, nanotechnology-based approaches have emerged as promising strategies for preventing and treating chemotherapy-induced neurotoxicity, neuropathy, and cardiomyopathy. NP-based drug delivery systems and therapeutics have shown potential for reducing the side effects of chemotherapeutics while improving drug efficacy. In this article, the latest nanotechnology approaches and their potential for the prevention and treatment of chemotherapy-induced neurotoxicity, neuropathy, and cardiomyopathy in breast and ovarian cancer survivors are discussed.

Abstract
Nanomaterials-based enzyme mimics (nanozymes), by simulating enzyme catalysis, have shown potential in numerous biocatalytic applications, but nanozymes face significant challenges of catalytic activity and reusability that may restrict their practical uses. Herein, we report facile fabrication of surface-clean IrO2 clusters supported on dendritic mesoporous silica nanospheres (DMSNs), which exhibit superior peroxidase-like activity, high thermal/long-term stability, and good recyclability. The IrO2 clusters (1.4 ± 0.2 nm in size) are obtained by the laser ablation without any ligands and possess negative surface charge, which are efficiently loaded on the amino-functionalized DMSNs by electrostatic adsorption. Owing to morphological and structural advantages, the resulted DMSN/IrO2 heterostructure displays outstanding peroxidase-like catalytic performance. Compared with horseradish peroxidase, it shows comparable affinities but higher reaction rate (2.95 × 10-7 M·s-1) towards H2O2, resulting from rapid electron transfer during the catalysis. This value is also larger than those of mesoporous silicas supported metal or metal oxides nanoparticles/clusters in the previous studies. Benefitting from excellent peroxidase-catalysis of the DMSN/IrO2, the colorimetric assays are further successfully established for the detection of acetylcholine esterase and its inhibitor, showing high sensitivity and selectivity. The work provides novel design of supported nanozymes for biosensing.

Abstract
Using tumors containing high concentrations of hydrogen peroxide to design nanozymes is a new and effective strategy, and vanadium-based nanomaterials receive increasing attention. In this paper, four kinds of vanadium oxide nanozymes with different valences of vanadium are synthesized by a simple method to verify the effect of valence on enzyme activity. Vanadium oxide nanozyme-III (Vnps-III) with a low valence of vanadium (V4+) exhibits good peroxidase (POD) and oxidase (OXD) activities, which can effectively produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the tumor microenvironment for tumor treatment. In addition, Vnps-III can also consume glutathione (GSH) to reduce ROS consumption. Vanadium oxide nanozyme-I (Vnps-I) containing a high valence of vanadium (V5+) has catalase (CAT) activity, which can catalyze hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) into oxygen (O2), which is beneficial to alleviate the hypoxic environment of solid tumors. Finally, a vanadium oxide nanozyme with both trienzyme simulation activity and GSH consumption ability was screened out by adjusting the ratio of V4+ to V5+ in vanadium oxide nanozymes. In cell and animal experiments, we successfully demonstrate that vanadium oxide nanozymes have excellent antitumor ability and high safety, which may bring great potential for clinical cancer treatment.

Abstract
How to optimize the enzyme-like catalytic activity of nanozymes to improve their applicability has become a great challenge. Herein, we present an l-cysteine (l-Cys) coordination-driven self-assembly strategy to activate polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP)-modified Cu single-atom nanozymes MoOx-Cu-Cys (denoted as MCCP SAzymes) aiming at catalytic tumor-specific therapy. The Cu single atom content of MCCP can be rationally modulated to 10.10 wt %, which activates the catalase (CAT)-like activity of MoOx nanoparticles to catalyze the decomposition of H2O2 in acidic microenvironments to increase O2 production. Excitingly, the maximized CAT-like catalytic efficiency of MCCP is 138-fold higher than that of typical MnO2 nanozymes and exhibits 14.3-fold higher affinity than natural catalase, as demonstrated by steady-state kinetics. We verify that the well-defined l-Cys-Cu···O active sites optimize CAT-like activity to match the active sites of natural catalase through an l-Cys bridge-accelerated electron transfer from Cys-Cu to MoOx disclosed by density functional theory calculations. Simultaneously, the high loading Cu single atoms in MCCP also enable generation of •OH via a Fenton-like reaction. Moreover, under X-ray irradiation, MCCP converts O2 to 1O2 for cascading radiodynamic therapy, thereby facilitating the multiple reactive oxygen species (ROS) for radiosensitization to achieve substantial antitumor.

Abstract
Neurodegeneration is characterized by progressive, disabling, and incurable neurological disorders with the massive loss of specific neurons. As one of the most promising potential therapeutic strategies for neurodegenerative diseases, stem cell therapy exerts beneficial effects through different mechanisms, such as direct replacement of damaged or lost cells, secretion of neurotrophic and growth factors, decreased neuroinflammation, and activation of endogenous stem cells. However, poor survival and differentiation rates of transplanted stem cells, insufficient homing ability, and difficulty tracking after transplantation limit their further clinical use. The rapid development of nanotechnology provides many promising nanomaterials for biomedical applications, which already have many applications in neurodegenerative disease treatment and seem to be able to compensate for some of the deficiencies in stem cell therapy, such as transport of stem cells/genes/drugs, regulating stem cell differentiation, and real-time tracking in stem cell therapy. Therefore, nanotherapeutic strategies combined with stem cell therapy is a promising therapeutic approach to treating neurodegenerative diseases. The present review systematically summarizes recent advances in stem cell therapeutics and nanotherapeutic strategies and highlights how they can be combined to improve therapeutic efficacy for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
Metallic aerogels (MAs) are self-supported porous nanomaterials with excellent catalytic activity, which could be a promising candidate for high-performance nanozymes. The interface regulation by heteroatom and vacancies is an effective strategy for boosting the enzyme-mimicking activity. Herein, magnetic RuCo aerogels with doping of boron and oxygen vacancies were prepared by a one-pot spontaneous NaBH4 gelation method under a low temperature. The three-dimensional network structure with high specific surface area and interlinked pores of RuCo aerogels afford abundant active sites to facilitate the interaction with substrates. Moreover, the monolithic structure avoided conventional aggregation, thus enhancing stability during catalysis. Introducing elemtal boron and oxygen vacancies adjusted the electronic structure of RuCo aerogels to achieve enhanced enzyme-like performances. It is found that the RuCo aerogel nanozyme can mimic nature peroxidase, demonstrating their viable applications in the bioassay of H2O2 and glucose. The constructed glucose sensor possesses acceptable sensitivity and stability with a linear range of 0.002 ~ 5 mM and a low detection limit (1.66 μM). This work provides insights into the rational design of advanced nanozymes and paves the avenue for the applications of metallic aerogels in the bioassay field. A boron-doped RuCo bimetallic aerogel with rich oxygen vacancies was prepared by a facile self-assembly method under an ice bath. The unique physical and electronic structure of RuCo aerogel results in the improvement of the intrinsic peroxidaselike activity, and thus, a sensitive and robust colorimetric glucose sensor could be developed.

Abstract
Dysregulation of superoxide anion (O2-) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) metabolism in the microenvironment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) drives the feedback loops of TNF-α and IL-1β thereby inducing an inflammatory storm between immune cells and joint tissue cells. Here, we combine nanoscale manganese dioxide (MnO2) with microvesicles derived from macrophage (MMV). The former possesses superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT)-like activities that can modulate this imbalance, and we amplify the enzyme-like activities by using the amorphous hollow mesoporous structure and surface modification. The latter is a natural endogenous component with the parent cell-like inflammatory homing ability and a unique function of transmitting information to surrounding and distant cells (″messenger function″), which helps amorphous hollow MnO2 (H-MnO2) nanozymes to cloak in the blood and reach the site of inflammation, where they can not only accumulate in activated macrophages but also pretend to be ″messengers″ that are utilized by fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) and chondrocytes. In addition, we also load dexamethasone sodium phosphate (DSP) for helping the nanozymes work. Messenger nanozyme (MMV-MnO2@DSP) inherits the natural properties of MMV and mimics the enzymatic activity of SOD and CAT. It accumulates in activated macrophages to restore the metabolism of O2- and H2O2 while promoting repolarization and inhibits the feedback loops of TNF-α and IL-1β among macrophages, fibroblast-like synoviocytes, and chondrocytes, leading to anti-rheumatoid arthritis effects in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract
When nanozymes are used in biological analysis, higher activity can improve the detection sensitivity, and better selectivity can eliminate other interference. To improve the specificity and sensitivity, we fabricated an innovative bioconjugated nanozyme with natural enzyme (BNNZ), in which natural ChOx was immobilized onto histidine-modified Fe3O4 (His-Fe3O4) with hydrophilic poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) as a linker. ChOx could specifically catalyze the oxidation of cholesterol to generate H2O2 molecule, and then the newly formed H2O2 oxidized the colorless 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) into blue ox-TMB by peroxidase-like His-Fe3O4. According to the above cascade reaction, the BNNZ-based colorimetric strategy was proposed for the detection of cholesterol. Wherein, natural enzymes specifically catalyzed substrates, which endowed BNNZ with excellent specificity for target molecules; meanwhile, the introduction of histidine on His-Fe3O4 effectively increased the peroxidase-like activity of BNNZ, which provided a guarantee for sensitivity. Furthermore, BNNZ after reaction could be rapidly separated by an external magnetic field without interfering with colorimetric quantitative detection. The proposed strategy exhibited excellent sensitivity with limit of detection of 0.446 μM and was successfully used for the detection of cholesterol in spiked human serum sample with recovery and relative standard deviation in the range of 97.9-103.5% and 2.5-4.0%, respectively. This work indicates that the bioconjugation of nanozyme and natural enzyme may be a universal strategy for synthesis of high-performance enzyme-nanozyme systems, and the new-type BNNZ will be widely used in biological detection and disease treatment.

Abstract
The emergence and evolution of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) pose a significant challenge to the current arsenal to fight infection. Antibiotic adjuvants represent an appealing tactic for tackling the AMR of pathogens, however, their practical applications are greatly constrained by the harsh infectious microenvironment. Herein, it is found that silver nanoclusters (Ag NCs) can possess tunable enzymatic activities to modulate infectious microenvironments. Based on this finding, an enzymatic nanoadjuvant (EnzNA) self-assembled from Ag NCs, which is inert under neutral physiological conditions but can readily disassemble into isolated Ag NCs exhibiting biofilm destructive oxidase-mimetic activity in the acidic biofilm microenvironment, is developed. Once internalized into the neutral cytoplasm of bacteria, Ag NCs switch to reveal the thiol oxidase-mimetic activity to suppress ribosomal biogenesis for AMR reversal and evolution inhibition of pathogens. Consequently, EnzNAs revitalize various existing antibiotics against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, and potentiate the antibiotic efficacy against biofilm-mediated skin infection and lethal lung infection in mice. These findings highlight the capability of enzyme-mimetic nanomaterials to modulate the infectious microenvironment and potentiate antibiotics, providing a paradigm shift for anti-infection therapy.

Abstract
More recently, loading polymer-ligand onto the surface of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) as nanozymes has gained considerable attention. However, the efficient modulation of the nanozymes catalytic capability depending on external stimuli remains challenging. Herein, utilizing the thermo-responsive poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide) (PNIPAM) as a stabilizer and a reducing agent to make PNIPAM@AuNPs, we reported a straightforward and efficient protocol for modulating the peroxidase-mimic catalytic capability of PNIPAM@AuNPs in oxidation of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethyl benzidine (TMB)-H2O2 system by change of environmental temperature. More hydroxylradicals yielded and surface confinement effect induced by the coiled PNIPAM chains at high temperature could further significantly boost the nanozymes catalytic capability. In the presence of glutathione, the generation of oxidized TMB was inhibited and the absorption intensity of the reaction system decreased at 650 nm. The color-fadingproperty provided a highly selective assay for visualized and quantitative test of glutathione ranging 1.0 ~ 17.0 μM (R2 = 0.993), the limit of detection was 0.8 μM. Moreover, the proposed method exhibited a promising application in analysis of rat serum glutathione following an intravenous injection. The strategy supplies a facile guideline for preparation of stimuli-responsive polymer@AuNPs with improved peroxidase-mimic catalytic activity toward application in real living bio-systems.

Abstract
High catalytic activity is one of the necessary parameters for nanozymes to substitute for natural enzymes. It remains a great challenge to improve the specific enzyme-like activity of nanozymes as much as possible using the characteristics of nanomaterials for avoiding complexity and introducing additional uncertainties. Here, by combining the peroxidase (POD)-like activity and plasmon properties of CuS hollow nanocages (CuS HNCs), we demonstrate the feasibility of modulating the catalytic activity of nanozymes by the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effect. Rough surfaces and hollow-cage structures endow CuS HNCs with abundant hot spots to produce strong LSPR in the near-infrared (NIR) region, which makes the CuS HNCs simultaneously generate plentiful high-energy hot carriers and thermal effect to mediate H2O2 cleavage to yield the reactive oxide species (ROS) as well as speed up the reaction, leading to a dramatically enhanced POD-like activity. Based on the light-enhanced catalytic activity and high photothermal efficiency of the reaction system, a dual-mode strategy for detecting tannic acid (TA) is developed and successfully applied to determine the content of TA in different kinds of teas. This work not only provides a novel path for tuning the specific enzyme-like activity of nanomaterials but also shows a perspective for dual-mode sensing based on a photoinduced plasmon-enhanced effect.

Abstract
The depletion of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by glutathione (GSH) and oxidative stress induced protective autophagy severely impaired the therapeutic effect of chemodynamic therapy (CDT). Therefore, how to construct a CDT treatment nanosystem with high yield and full utilization of ROS in tumor site is the main issue of CDT. Herein, a multifunctional cascade bioreactor based on mesoporous Mo-doped Cu9S5 (m-MCS) nanozymes loaded with L-Arginine (LA), abbreviated as m-MCS@LA, is constructed for realizing enhanced CDT promoted by ultrasound (US) triggered gas therapy. The m-MCS based on the catalytic performance of multivalent metal ions, which were served as nanozymes, exhibit enhanced Fenton-like and glutathione (GSH) peroxidase-like activities in comparison to Cu9S5 nanoparticles without Mo-doping. Once placed in tumor microenvironment (TME), the existence of redox couples (Cu+/Cu2+ and Mo4+/Mo6+) in m-MCS enabled it to react with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to generate ·OH for achieving CDT effect via Fenton-like reaction. Meanwhile, m-MCS could consume overexpressed GSH in tumor microenvironment (TME) to alleviate antioxidant capability for enhancing CDT effect. Moreover, m-MCS with mesoporous structure could be employed as the carrier to load natural nitric oxide (NO) donor LA. US as the excitation source with high tissue penetration can trigger m-MCS@LA to produce NO. As the gas transmitter with physiological functions, NO could play dual roles to kill cancer cells through gas therapy directly, and enhance CDT effect by inhibiting protective autophagy simultaneously. As a result, this US-triggered and NO-mediated synergetic cancer chemodynamic/gas therapy based on m-MCS@LA NPs can effectively eliminate primary tumor and achieved tumor-specific treatment, which provide a possible strategy for developing more effective CDT in future practical applications. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: The depletion of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by glutathione (GSH) and oxidative stress induced protective autophagy severely impaired the therapeutic effect of chemodynamic therapy (CDT). Herein, a multifunctional cascade bioreactor based on mesoporous Mo-doped Cu9S5 (m-MCS) nanozymes loaded with L-Arginine (m-MCS@LA) is constructed for realizing enhanced CDT promoted by ultrasound (US) triggered gas therapy. The m-MCS with double redox couples presents the enhanced enzyme-like activities to perform cascade reactions for reducing GSH and generating ROS. LA loaded by m-MCS can produce NO triggered by US to inhibit the mitochondria protective autophagy for reactivating mitochondria involved apoptosis pathway. The US-triggered and NO-mediated CDT based on m-MCS@LA can effectively eliminate primary tumor through the high yield and full utilization of ROS.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS)-based nanocatalytic tumor therapy is alluring owing to the capability to generate highly cytotoxic ∙OH radicals from tumoral H2O2. However, the antitumor efficacy is highly dependent on the radical generation efficiency and challenged by the high levels of antioxidative glutathione (GSH) in cancer cells. Herein, we report an IR-780 decorated, GSH-depleting Fe3O4@MIL-100 (IFM) nanocomposite for photo-enhanced tumor catalytic therapy by extensive production of ∙OH, which is realized by an integration of excellent peroxidase-like activity of IFM, selective upregulation of tumoral H2O2 by β-lapachone, and localized hyperthermia by near infrared light irradiation. IFM shows potentiated antiproliferative effect in 4T1 cancer cells by ∙OH overproduction and glutathione scavenging, inducing intracellular redox dyshomeostasis and cell death by concurrent apoptosis and ferroptosis. In vivo antitumor investigation further demonstrates photoacoustic and fluorescence imaging-guided combinational therapy with a tumor inhibition rate of 96.4%. This study provides a strategy of photo-enhanced nanocatalytic tumor therapy by tumor-specific H2O2 amplification and hyperthermia.

RSC Adv 2022; 12:20838-20849.

Abstract
Traditional bimetallic sulfide-based nanomaterials often have a small specific surface area (SSA), low dispersion, and poor conductivity, thereby limiting their wide applications in the nanozyme-catalytic field. To address the above issues, we herein integrated NiCo2S4 with N,S-rGO to fabricate a nanocomposite (NiCo2S4@N,S-rGO), which showed a stronger peroxidase-mimetic activity than its pristine components. The SSA (155.8 m2 g-1) of NiCo2S4@N,S-rGO increased by ∼2-fold compared to NiCo2S4 with a pore size of 7-9 nm, thus providing more active sites and charge transfer channels. Based on the Michaelis-Menten equation, the affinity of this nanocomposite increased 40% and 1.1∼10.6-fold compared with NiCo2S4 with N,S-rGO, respectively, highlighting the significant enhancement of the peroxidase-like activity. The enhanced activity of this nanocomposite is derived from the joint participation of ˙OH, ˙O2 -, and photogenerated holes (h+), and was dominated by h+. To sum up, N,S-codoping, rich S-vacancies, and multi-valence states for this nanocomposite facilitate electron transfer and accelerate reaction processes. The nanocomposite-based colorimetric sensor gave low detection limits for H2O2 (12 μM) and glucose (0.3 μM). In comparison with the results detected by a common glucose meter, this sensor provided the relative recoveries across the range of 97.4-101.8%, demonstrating its high accuracy. Moreover, it exhibited excellent selectivity for glucose assay with little interference from common co-existing macromolecules/ions, as well as high reusability (>6 times). Collectively, the newly developed colorimetric sensor yields a promising methodology for practical applications in H2O2 and glucose detection with advantages of highly visual resolution, simple operation, convenient use, and satisfactory sensitivity.

Abstract
Pathogenic bacteria infections have posed a threat to human health worldwide. Nanomaterials with natural enzymatic activity provide an opportunity for the development of new antibacterial pathways. We successfully constructed iron phosphate nanozyme-hydrogel (FePO4-HG) with the traits of positive charge and macropores. Interestingly, FePO4-HG displayed not only peroxidase-like activity under acidic bacterial infectious microenvironment but also superoxide dismutase-catalase-like synergistic effects in neutral or weak alkaline conditions, thus protecting normal tissues from the peroxidase-like protocol with exogenous H2O2 damage. Furthermore, the positive charge and macropore structure of FePO4-HG could capture and restrict bacteria in the range of ROS destruction. Obviously, FePO4-HG exhibited excellent antibacterial ability against MRSA and AREC with the assistance of H2O2. Significantly, the FePO4-HG + H2O2 system could efficiently disrupt the bacterial biofilm formation and facilitate the glutathione oxidation process to rapid bacterial death with low cytotoxicity. Moreover, FePO4-HG was unsusceptible to bacterial resistance development in MRSA. Animal experiments showed that the FePO4-HG + H2O2 group could efficiently eliminate the MRSA infection and present excellent wound healing without inflammation and tissue adhesions. With further development and optimization, FePO4-HG has great potential as a new class of antibacterial agents to fight antibiotic-resistant pathogens.

Abstract
Introducing the idea of integrated design and cascade activity into nanozyme, the novel integrated nanozymes (INAzymes), FeMo6 @Ce-Uio-66 (FC-66(n)), were designed and synthesized by encapsulating iron-based polyoxometalates (FeMo6 ) into the ceria-based metal-organic framework (Ce-Uio-66). Due to the oxygen-driven reversible Ce3+ /Ce4+ couple sites, the "Fenton-like" effect by iron centers, the "nanoscale proximity" effects by nanocages, and their synergistic effects, FC-66(n) as INAzymes exhibit elegant cascade enzyme-mimic activities (oxidase-, peroxidase-, and Fenton-like activity), which realizes INAzyme activities based on polyoxometalates based metal-organic framework (POMOFs). By employing dopamine (DA) detection as a model reaction, a high-efficient fluorescent "turning-on-enhanced" platform under near neutral conditions was established.
