Wu W, Zhao W, Huang C, Cao Y. Comparison of developmental toxicity of graphene oxide and graphdiyne to zebrafish larvae. Comp Biochem Physiol C Toxicol Pharmacol 2024; 281:109924. [PMID: 38615809 DOI: 10.1016/j.cbpc.2024.109924] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/11/2024] [Revised: 04/07/2024] [Accepted: 04/11/2024] [Indexed: 04/16/2024]
Abstract
Graphdiyne (GDY) is a new member of family of carbon-based 2D nanomaterials (NMs), but the environmental toxicity is less investigated compared with other 2D NMs, such as graphene oxide (GO). In this study, we compared with developmental toxicity of GO and GDY to zebrafish larvae. It was shown that exposure of zebrafish embryos from 5 h post fertilization to GO and GDY for up to 5 days decreased hatching rate and induced morphological deformity. Behavioral tests indicated that GO and GDY treatment led to hyperactivity of larvae. However, blood flow velocity was not significantly affected by GO or GDY. RNA-sequencing data revealed that both types of NMs altered gene expression profiles as well as gene ontology terms and KEGG pathways related with metabolism. We further confirmed that the NMs altered the expression of genes related with lipid droplets and autophagy, which may be account for the delayed development of zebrafish larvae. At the same mass concentrations, GO induced comparable or even larger toxic effects compared with GDY, indicating that GDY might be more biocompatible compared with GO. These results may provide novel understanding about the environmental toxicity of GO and GDY in vivo.

Abstract
In recent years, the intersection of the academic and medical domains has increasingly spotlighted the utilization of biomaterials in radioactive disease treatment and radiation protection. Biomaterials, distinguished from conventional molecular pharmaceuticals, offer a suite of advantages in addressing radiological conditions. These include their superior biological activity, chemical stability, exceptional histocompatibility, and targeted delivery capabilities. This review comprehensively delineates the therapeutic mechanisms employed by various biomaterials in treating radiological afflictions impacting the skin, lungs, gastrointestinal tract, and hematopoietic systems. Significantly, these nanomaterials function not only as efficient drug delivery vehicles but also as protective agents against radiation, mitigating its detrimental effects on the human body. Notably, the strategic amalgamation of specific biomaterials with particular pharmacological agents can lead to a synergistic therapeutic outcome, opening new avenues in the treatment of radiation- induced diseases. However, despite their broad potential applications, the biosafety and clinical efficacy of these biomaterials still require in-depth research and investigation. Ultimately, this review aims to not only bridge the current knowledge gaps in the application of biomaterials for radiation-induced diseases but also to inspire future innovations and research directions in this rapidly evolving field.

Abstract
Many efforts have been devoted to obtaining excellent cathode catalysts for Zinc air batteries (ZABs), but the inevitable use of binder will damage the catalytic activity and weaken long-term stability, inefficient mass transfer of oxygen is also chargable for the limited activity. Herein, in situ grown hydrogen substituted graphdiyne (HGDY) on carbon paper has been prepared and used as cathode catalyst layer in ZABs. Multiple catalytic sites are firmly combined and end with the boosted bifunctional catalytic activity of oxygen reduction and oxygen evolution. Moreover, the specific surface area, sufficient active sites, multilevel pore nanostructure and robust conductivity are fully exposed to establish efficient catalytic interface and skeleton. Cu/Co nanoparticles are uniformly distributed and warped by HGDY network, which can stably exist during the catalytic process. As a result, a current density of 18.75 mA cm-2 and a Tafel slope of 61.06 mV dec-1 for oxygen reduction and a ultralong operation for more than 2300 h in aqueous ZAB have been achieved, which is beyond many reported bifunctional catalysts in ZAB system.

Abstract
Nanostructured electrode materials become a vital component for future electrode materials because of their short electron and ion transport distances for fast charge and discharge processes and sufficient space between particles for volume expansion. So, achieving a smaller size of the nanomaterial with stable structure and high electrode performance is always the pursuit. Herein, the hybrid electrode material system hydrogen-substituted graphdiyne (HsGDY)/Cu2O-quantum dots (QDs) composed of an active carbon substrate and vibrant metal oxide QD load was established by HsGDY and cuprous oxide. The HsGDY frame with conjugated structure not only delivers impressive capacity by a self-exchange mechanism but also characterizes a matrix to forge strong connections with numerous active Cu2O-QDs for the prevention of aggregation, leading to a homogeneous storage and transport of charge in a bulk material of crisscross structural pores. QD-based electrode materials would exhibit desired capacities by their large surface area, abundant active surface atoms, and the short diffusion pathway. The hybrid system of HsGDY/Cu2O-QDs delivers an ultrahigh capacity of 1230 mA h g-1 with loading density reaching up to 1 mg cm-2. In the meantime, the electrode exhibits a long cycle stability of over 8000 cycles. The synergistic effect endows the hybrid system electrode with an approximately theoretical energy density, suggesting the great potential of such carbon/QD hybrid material system applied for high-performance batteries.

Abstract
Radiation-induced enteritis is an unavoidable complication associated with pelvic tumor radiotherapy, significantly influencing the prognosis of cancer patients. The limited availability of commercial gastrointestinal radioprotectors in clinical settings poses a substantial challenge in preventing radiation enteritis. Despite the inherent radioprotective characteristics of Cur in vitro, its poor solubility in water, instability, and low bioavailability lead to inferior therapeutic effects in vivo. Herein, we developed novel ROS-responsive micelles (CTI) from inulin and curcumin, aimed at mitigating radiation enteritis. CTI micelles had excellent solubility and stability. Importantly, CTI improved the cytotoxicity and bioavailability of curcumin, thereby showing enhanced effectiveness in neutralizing ROS induced by radiation, safeguarding against DNA damage, and reducing radiation-induced cellular mortality. Moreover, in a radiation enteritis mice model, CTI not only alleviated severe radiation-induced intestinal injury but also improved redox-related indicators and reduced inflammatory cytokine expression. Furthermore, CTI effectively increased gut microbiota abundance and maintained gut homeostasis. In conclusion, CTI could be a promising candidate for the clinical management of radiation enteritis. Our study provides a new perspective for radioprotection using natural antioxidants.

Abstract
A series of triarylboron-based graphdiyne analogues (TAB-GDYs) with tunable pore size were prepared through copper mediated coupling reaction. The elemental composition, chemical bond, morphology of TAB-GDYs were well characterized. The crystallinity was confirmed by selected area electron diffraction (SAED) and stacking modes were studied in combination with high resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM) and structure simulation. The absorption and desorption isotherm revealed relatively high specific surface area of these TAB-GDYs up to 788 m2 g-1 for TMTAB-GDY, which decreased as pore size enlarged. TAB-GDYs exhibit certain selectivity for CO2 /N2 (21.9), CO2 /CH4 (5.3), CO2 /H2 (41.8) and C2 H2 /CO2 (2.3). This work has developed a series of boron containing two-dimensional frameworks with clear structures and good stability, and their tunable pore sizes have laid the foundation for future applications in the gas separation field.

Abstract
Radiation-induced colitis is a serious clinical problem worldwide. However, the current treatment options for this condition have limited efficacy and can cause side effects. To address this issue, colon-targeted fullerenol@pectin@chitosan gel microspheres (FPCGMs) are developed, which can aggregate on colon tissue for a long time, scavenge free radicals generated in the process of radiation, and regulate intestinal flora to mitigate damage to colonic tissue. First, FPCGMs exhibit acid resistance and colon-targeted release properties, which reduce gastrointestinal exposure and extend the local colonic drug residence time. Second, fullerenol, which has a superior scavenging ability and chemical stability, reduces oxidative stress in colonic epithelial cells. Based on this, it is found that FPCGMs significantly reduce inflammation in colonic tissue, mitigated damage to tight junctions of colonic epithelial cells, and significantly relieved radiation-induced colitis in mice. Moreover, 16S ribosomal DNA (16S rDNA) sequencing results show that the composition of the intestinal flora is optimized after FPCGMs are utilized, indicating that the relative abundance of probiotics increases while harmful bacteria are inhibited. These findings suggest that it is a promising candidate for treating radiation-induced colitis.

Abstract
Clinical wound management of combined radiation and burn injury (CRBI) remains a huge challenge due to serious injuries induced by redundant reactive oxygen species (ROS), the accompanying hematopoietic, immunologic suppression and stem cell reduction. Herein, the injectable multifunctional Schiff base cross-linked with gallic acid modified chitosan (CSGA)/oxidized dextran (ODex) hydrogels were rationally designed to accelerate wound healing through elimination of ROS in CRBI. CSGA/ODex hydrogels, fabricated by mixing solutions of CSGA and Odex, displayed good self-healing ability, excellent injectability, strong antioxidant activity, and favorable biocompatibility. More importantly, CSGA/ODex hydrogels exhibited excellent antibacterial properties, which is facilitated for wound healing. Furthermore, CSGA/ODex hydrogels significantly suppressed the oxidative damage of L929 cells in an H2O2-induced ROS microenvironment. The recovery of mice with CRBI in mice demonstrated that CSGA/ODex hydrogels significantly reduced the hyperplasia of epithelial cells and the expression of proinflammatory cytokine, and accelerated wound healing which was superior to the treatment with commercial triethanolamine ointment. In conclusion, the CSGA/ODex hydrogels as a wound dressing could accelerate the wound healing and tissue regeneration of CRBI, which provides great potential in clinical treatment of CRBI.

Abstract
Interest in space exploration has seen substantial growth following recent launch and operation of modern space technologies. In particular, the possibility of travel beyond low earth orbit is seeing sustained support. However, future deep space travel requires addressing health concerns for crews under continuous, longer-term exposure to adverse environmental conditions. Among these challenges, radiation-induced health issues are a major concern. Their potential to induce chronic illness is further potentiated by the microgravity environment. While investigations into the physiological effects of space radiation are still under investigation, studies on model ionizing radiation conditions, in earth and micro-gravity conditions, can provide needed insight into relevant processes. Substantial formation of high, sustained reactive oxygen species (ROS) evolution during radiation exposure is a clear threat to physiological health of space travelers, producing indirect damage to various cell structures and requiring therapeutic address. Radioprotection toward the skeletal system components is essential to astronaut health, due to the high radio-absorption cross-section of bone mineral and local hematopoiesis. Nanotechnology can potentially function as radioprotectant and radiomitigating agents toward ROS and direct radiation damage. Nanoparticle compositions such as gold, silver, platinum, carbon-based materials, silica, transition metal dichalcogenides, and ceria have all shown potential as viable radioprotectants to mitigate space radiation effects with nanoceria further showing the ability to protect genetic material from oxidative damage in several studies. As research into space radiation-induced health problems develops, this review intends to provide insights into the nanomaterial design to ameliorate pathological effects from ionizing radiation exposure. This article is categorized under: Therapeutic Approaches and Drug Discovery > Emerging Technologies Nanotechnology Approaches to Biology > Nanoscale Systems in Biology Nanotechnology Approaches to Biology > Cells at the Nanoscale Therapeutic Approaches and Drug Discovery > Nanomedicine for Oncologic Disease.

N-acetyl-L-tryptophan (NAT) provides protection to intestinal epithelial cells (IEC-6) against radiation-induced apoptosis via modulation of oxidative stress and mitochondrial membrane integrity. Mol Biol Rep 2023; 50:6381-6397. [PMID: 37322322 DOI: 10.1007/s11033-023-08579-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/27/2023] [Accepted: 06/02/2023] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Ionizing radiation generates oxidative stress in biological systems via inducing free radicals. Gastro-intestinal system has been known for its high radiosensitivity. Therefore, to develop an effective radiation countermeasure for gastrointestinal system, N-acetyl L-tryptophan was evaluated for its radioprotective efficacy using intestinal epithelial cells-6 (IEC-6) cells as the experimental model. METHODS AND RESULTS Cellular metabolic and lysosomal activity of L-NAT and L-NAT treated irradiated IEC-6 cells were assessed by MTT and NRU staining, respectively. ROS and mitochondrial superoxide levels along with mitochondrial disruption were detected using specific fluorescent probes. Endogenous antioxidants (CAT, SOD, GST, GPx) activities were determined using calorimetric assay. Apoptosis and DNA damage were assessed using flow cytometery and Comet assay, respectively. Results of the study were demonstrated that L-NAT pre-treatment (- 1 h) to irradiated IEC-6 cells significantly contribute to ensuring 84.36% to 87.68% (p < 0.0001) survival at 0.1 μg/mL concentration against LD50 radiation dose (LD50; 20 Gy). Similar level of radioprotection was observed with a clonogenic assay against γ radiation (LD50; 5 Gy). L-NAT was found to provide radioprotection by neutralizing radiation-induced oxidative stress, enhancing antioxidant enzymes (CAT, SOD, GST, and GPx), and protecting DNA from radiation-induced damage. Further, significant restoration of mitochondrial membrane integrity along with apoptosis inhibition was observed with irradiated IEC-6 cells upon L-NAT pretreatment.

Abstract
Graphdiyne (GDY) is a kind of nanomaterial from the graphene carbon family with excellent physical and chemical properties. Despite some applications in medical engineering, GDY has not been used as an electroactive scaffold for tissue regeneration because of its unclear in vitro and in vivo biosafety profiles. Here, a conductive GDY nanomaterial-loaded polycaprolactone (PCL) scaffold was prepared by electrospinning technique. For the first time, the biocompatibility of GDY-based scaffold was assessed at the cellular and animal levels in a peripheral nerve injury (PNI) model. The findings indicated that the conductive three-dimensional (3D) GDY/PCL nerve guide conduits (NGCs) could significantly improve the proliferation, adhesion and glial expression of Schwann cells (SCs). The conduits were implanted into a rat 10-mm sciatic nerve defect model for 3 months in vivo. The toxicity of scaffolds to the organs was negligible, while the GDY/PCL NGCs significantly promoted myelination and axonal growth by upregulating the expression levels of SC marker (S100 β protein), Myelin basic protein (MBP), and axon regeneration marker (β3-tubulin protein (Tuj1) and neurofilament protein 200 (NF200)). In addition, upregulation of vascular factor expression in GDY/PCL NGC group suggested the potential role in angiogenesis to improve nerve repair by GDY nanomaterials. Our findings provide new perspectives on biocompatibility and effectiveness of GDY nanomaterial scaffold in peripheral nerve regeneration for preclinical application.

Abstract
Graphdiyne (GDY) is a promising material possessing extensive electronic tunability, high π conjugacy, and ordered porosity at a molecular level for the sp/sp2-hybridized periodic structures. Despite these advantages, the preparation of soluble and crystalline graphdiyne is limited by the relatively compact stacking interactions, mostly existing in thick-layer and insoluble solids. Herein, we proposed a strategy of "framework charge-induced intercalation (FCII)" for the synthesis of a soluble (4.3 mg ml-1) and yet interlayer-expanded (∼0.6 Å) crystalline ionic graphdiyne, named as N+-GDY, through regulating the interlayer interactions. The skeleton of such a sample is positively charged, and then the negative ions migrate to the interlayer to expand the space, endowing the N+-GDY with solution processability. The crystal structure of N+-GDY is proved through analysis of HR-TEM images under different axes of observation and theoretical simulations. The resulting N+-GDY possesses high dispersity in organic solvents to produce a pure-solution phase which is conducive to the formation of oriented N+-GDY films, accompanied by exfoliation-nanosheet restacking. The film exhibits a conductivity of 0.014 S m-1, enabling its applications in electronic devices.

Abstract
Radiation gastroenteritis represents one of the most prevalent and hazardous complications of abdominopelvic radiotherapy, which not only severely reduces patients' life quality but also restricts radiotherapy efficacy. However, there is currently no clinically available oral radioprotector for this threatening disease due to its complex pathogenesis and the harsh gastrointestinal environment. To this end, this study developed a facile but effective oral radioprotector, ergothioneine hyaluronate (EGT@HA) gel, protecting against radiation gastroenteritis by synergistically regulating oxidative stress, inflammation, and gut microbiota. In vitro and cellular experiments verified the chemical stability and free radical scavenging ability of EGT and its favorable cellular radioprotective efficacy by inhibiting intracellular reactive oxidative species (ROS) generation, DNA damage, mitochondrial damage, and apoptosis. At the in vivo level, EGT@HA with prolonged gastrointestinal residence mitigated radiation-induced gastrointestinal tissue injury, apoptosis, neutrophil infiltration, and gut flora dysbiosis. For the first time, this work investigated the protective effects of EGT@HA gel on radiation gastroenteritis, which not only hastens the advancement of the novel gastrointestinal radioprotector but also provides a valuable gastrointestinal radioprotection paradigm by synergistically modulating oxidative stress, inflammation, and gut microbiota disturbance.

Abstract
Ionizing radiation (IR) poses a growing threat to human health, and thus ideal radioprotectors with high efficacy and low toxicity still receive widespread attention in radiation medicine. Despite significant progress made in conventional radioprotectants, high toxicity, and low bioavailability still discourage their application. Fortunately, the rapidly evolving nanomaterial technology furnishes reliable tools to address these bottlenecks, opening up the cutting-edge nano-radioprotective medicine, among which the intrinsic nano-radioprotectants characterized by high efficacy, low toxicity, and prolonged blood retention duration, represent the most extensively studied class in this area. Herein, we made the systematic review on this topic, and discussed more specific types of radioprotective nanomaterials and more general clusters of the extensive nano-radioprotectants. In this review, we mainly focused on the development, design innovations, applications, challenges, and prospects of the intrinsic antiradiation nanomedicines, and presented a comprehensive overview, in-depth analysis as well as an updated understanding of the latest advances in this topic. We hope that this review will promote the interdisciplinarity across radiation medicine and nanotechnology and stimulate further valuable studies in this promising field.

Ascidian-Inspired Temperature-Switchable Hydrogels with Antioxidant Fullerenols for Protecting Radiation-Induced Oral Mucositis and Maintaining the Homeostasis of Oral Microbiota. SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2023:e2206598.

Abstract
A key characteristic of radiation-induced oral mucositis (RIOM) is oxidative stress mediated by the "reactive oxygen species (ROS) storm" generated from water radiolysis, resulting in severe pathological lesions, accompanied by a disturbance of oral microbiota. Therefore, a sprayable in situ hydrogel loaded with "free radical sponge" fullerenols (FOH) is developed as antioxidant agent for RIOM radioprotection. Inspired by marine organisms, 3,4,5-trihydroxyphenylalanine (TOPA) which is enriched in ascidians is grafted to clinically approved temperature-switchable Pluronic F127 to produce gallic acid (containing the TOPA fragment)-modified Pluronic F127 (MGA) hydrogels to resist the fast loss of FOH via biomimetic adhesion during oral movement and saliva erosion. Based on this, progressive RIOM found in mice is alleviated by treatment of FOH-loaded MGA hydrogels whether pre-irradiation prophylactic administration or post-irradiation therapeutic administration, which contributes to maintaining the homeostasis of oral microbiota. Mechanistically, FOH inhibits cell apoptosis by scavenging radiation-induced excess ROS and up-regulates the inherent enzymatic antioxidants, thereby protecting the proliferation and migration of mucosal epithelial cells. In conclusion, this work not only provides proof-of-principle evidence for the oral radioprotection of FOH by blocking the "ROS storm", but also provides an effective and easy-to-use hydrogel system for mucosal in situ administration.

Abstract
In response to diffused ionizing radiation damage throughout the body caused by nuclear leaks and inaccurate radiotherapy, radioprotectants with considerable free radical scavenging capacities, along with negligible adverse effects, are highly regarded. Herein, unlike being performed as toxic chemotherapeutic drug candidates, molybdenum-based polyoxometalate nanoclusters (Mo-POM NCs) were developed as a non-toxic potent radioprotectant with impressive free radical scavenging capacities for ionizing radiation protection. In comparison to the clinically used radioprotectant drug amifostine (AM), the as-prepared Mo-POM NCs exhibited effective shielding capacity by virtue of their antioxidant properties resulting from a valence shift of molybdenum ions, alleviating not only ionizing radiation-induced DNA damage but also disruption of the radiation-sensitive hematopoietic system. More encouragingly, without trouble with long-term retention in the body, ultra-small sized Mo-POM NCs prepared by the mimetic Folin-Ciocalteu assay can be removed from the body through the renal-urinary pathway and the hepato-enteral excretory system after completing the mission of radiation protection. This work broadened the biological applications of metal-based POM chemotherapeutic drugs to act as a neozoic radioprotectant.

Abstract
As the primary cause of many tissue damage and diseases, reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) are well known to be extremely harmful to a variety of biological components in cells including lipids, proteins and DNA. Numerous antioxidative nanomaterials have been artificially designed and rationally synthesized to protect cells from the oxidative damage caused by reactive oxygen species/reactive nitrogen species. Recent studies demonstrate that low dimensional carbon antioxidative nanomaterials have received a lot of attention owing to their tiny nanoscales and unique physicochemical property. As a result, a brief overview of recent advancements in antioxidant low-dimensional carbon materials is provided. Typically, carbon nanomaterials are classified according to their nanostructure dimensions, which are zero-dimension, one-dimension, and two-dimension. Last but not least, the challenges and perspectives of these high-performance low-dimensional materials in biomedical fields and further clinical usages are discussed as well.

Abstract
Although radiotherapy is one of the most common treatments for triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), it frequently has unsatisfactory therapeutic outcomes due to the radiation resistance of tumor tissues. Therefore, a synergistic strategy is urgently needed to increase therapeutic responses and prolong patient survival. Herein, we constructed gold nanocages (GNCs) loaded with a hyperpyrexia-sensitive nitric oxide (NO) donor (thiolate cupferron) to integrate extrinsic radiosensitization, local photothermal therapy, and near-infrared-activated NO gas therapy. The resulting nanoplatform (GNCs@NO) showed a high photothermal conversion efficiency, which induced the death of cancer cells and facilitated rapid NO release in tumor tissues. The radiosensitizing efficacy of GNCs@NO was further demonstrated in vitro and in vivo. Importantly, the released NO reacted with the reactive oxide species induced by radiotherapy to produce more toxic reactive nitrogen species, exerting a synergistic effect to improve anticancer efficacy. Thus, GNCs@NO demonstrated excellent effects as a combination therapy with few adverse effects. Our work proposes a promising nanoplatform for the radio/photothermal/gas treatment of TNBC.

Abstract
Graphdiyne (GDY) is a new member of the family of carbon-based nanomaterials with hybridized carbon atoms of sp and sp2, including α, β, γ, and (6,6,12)-GDY, which differ in their percentage of acetylene bonds. The unique structure of GDY provides many attractive features, such as uniformly distributed pores, highly π-conjugated structure, high thermal stability, low toxicity, biodegradability, large specific surface area, tunable electrical conductivity, and remarkable thermal conductivity. Therefore, GDY is widely used in energy storage, catalysis, and energy fields, in addition to biomedical fields, such as biosensing, cancer therapy, drug delivery, radiation protection, and tissue engineering. In this review, we first discuss the synthesis of GDY with different shapes, including nanotubes, nanowires, nanowalls, and nanosheets. Second, we present the research progress in the biomedical field in recent years, along with the biodegradability and biocompatibility of GDY based on the existing literature. Subsequently, we present recent research results on the use of nanomaterials in peripheral nerve regeneration (PNR). Based on the wide application of nanomaterials in PNR and the remarkable properties of GDY, we predict the prospects and current challenges of GDY-based materials for PNR.

Abstract
Hydrogels are used in vascular tissue engineering because of their good biocompatibility. However, most natural hydrogels exhibit high swelling ratio, poor mechanical stability, and low durability, which are key limitations for wider applications. Amphiphilic and fatigue-resistant organohydrogels were fabricated here via the click chemical reaction of unsaturated functional microbial polyhydroxyalkanoates and polyethylene glycol diacrylate and a combination of two-dimensional material graphdiyne. These organohydrogels were maintained stable in body fluids over time, and their tensile moduli remained unchanged after more than 2000 cycles of cyclic stretching. The tubular scaffolds presented good biocompatibility and perfusion in vitro. After transplantation in vivo, the vascular grafts exhibited obvious cell infiltration and tissue regeneration, having a higher patency rate than the control group in 3 months. This fabrication method provides a strategy of improving and promoting the application of organohydrogels as implant materials for small-diameter vascular graft.

Abstract
In this article, we developed a new method to analyze the complex chemical reactions induced by electron beam radiolysis based on big data analysis. At first, we built an element transport network to show the chemical reactions. Furthermore, the linearity between the species was quantified by Pearson correlation coefficient analysis. Based on the analysis, the mechanism of the high linearity between the special species pairs was interpreted by the element transport roadmap and chemical equations. The time variation of the pH of the solution and bubble formation in the solution were analyzed by simulation and data analysis. The simulation indicates that O2 and H2 can easily oversaturate and form bubbles. Finally, the radiolysis of high-energy electrons in pure water was analyzed as a reference for the radiolysis of high-energy electrons in saline solution. This work provides a new method for investigating a high-energy electron radiolysis process and for simplifying a complex chemical reaction based on quantitative analysis of the species variation in the reaction.

Abstract
Background:
Peptic ulcer disease (PUD) is prevalent in almost all parts of the world. PUD complications are creating a major source of preventable health care expenses. The major factors responsible for the incidence of PUD and its complication have changed over the past few decades after the identification of non-steroidal inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and Helicobacter pylori bacterial infection along with a marked increase in the use of proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs) as drug therapy. The management of PUD has become more complex and challenging due to antimicrobial resistance.
Objective:
The objective of the study was to highlight current therapy and novel techniques used in the treatment of peptic ulcer diseases.
Methods:
An exhaustive literature search has been conducted across PubMed, Google, Scopus and Web of Science as an electronic database to add the crucial information from the relevant literature.
Results:
In the present review, we have discussed PUD and its pathophysiology. The recent trends in PUD and possible treatments with novel techniques have also been discussed. The type and presence of ulcers cannot be predicted accurately based on symptoms. The available treatment approaches for peptic ulcers based on their clinical presentation and etiology are anti-secretary therapy, endoscopy to reveal ulcers followed by drug therapy, and triple therapy for H pylori infection.
Conclusion:
Thus, the popular and effective methods are very beneficial in controlling PUD. The treatment based on diagnosis is the foremost requirement for ameliorating any disorder. In this article, the emerging techniques and development in the treatment and diagnosis of PUD have been reviewed.

Abstract
The biological effect of engineered carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as beneficial biomaterials on the intestine, especially on its development, remains unclear. Here, we investigated the profitable effect of CNTs with a different graphene layer and surface modification on the 3D model of intestinal organoids and demonstrated that CNTs (50 μg/mL) promoted the development of intestinal organoids over time (0-5 days). The mechanisms involve the modulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) viscoelasticity and intracellular energy metabolism. In particular, CNTs reduced the hardness of the extracellular matrix through decreasing the elasticity and increasing the viscosity as a result of elevated metalloproteinase and binding to a protein scaffold, which activated the mechanical membrane sensors of cells, Piezo, and downstream P-p38-yes-associated protein (YAP) pathway. Moreover, CNTs altered the metabolic profile of intestinal organoids and induced increased mitochondria activity, respiration, and nutrient absorption. These mechanisms cooperated with each other to promote the proliferation and differentiation of intestinal organoids. In addition, the promoted effect of CNTs is highly dependent on the number of graphene layers, manifested as multiwalled CNTs > single-walled CNTs. Our findings highlight the CNT-intestine interaction and imply the potential of CNTs as biomaterials for intestine-associated tissue engineering.

Abstract
Radiation dermatitis is a common but torturous side effect during radiotherapy, which greatly decreases the life quality of patients and potentially results in detrimental cessation of tumor treatment. Fullerenol, known as "free radical sponge," is a great choice for skin radioprotection because of its broad-spectrum free radical scavenging performance, good chemical stability, and biosafety. In this work, a facile scalable and eco-friendly synthetic method of fullerenols by catalyst assistant mechanical chemistry strategy is provided. As no organic solvent or high concentration of acid and alkali is introduced to this synthetic system, large-scale (>20 g) production of fullerenols with high yield (>95%) is obtained and no complicated purification is required. Then, the skin radioprotective performance of fullerenols is systematically explored for the first time. In vitro results indicate that fullerenols significantly block the reactive oxygen species-induced damage and enhance the viability of irradiated human keratinocyte cells. In vivo experiments suggest that medical sodium hyaluronate hydrogels loaded with fullerenols are suitable for skin administration and powerfully mitigate radiodermatitis via effectively protecting epidermal stem cells. The work not only provides an efficient gram-scale and eco-friendly synthetic method of fullerenols, but also promotes the development of fullerenols as potential skin radioprotectors.

Abstract
Graphdiyne oxide (GDYO) is a carbon-based nanomaterial possessing sp2 and sp-hybridized carbon atoms with many promising applications. However, its biocompatibility and potential biodegradability remain poorly understood. Using human primary monocyte-derived macrophages as a model we show here that GDYO elicited little or no cytotoxicity toward classically activated (M1) and alternatively activated (M2) macrophages. Moreover, GDYO reprogrammed M2 macrophages towards M1 macrophages, as evidenced by the elevation of specific cell surface markers and cytokines and the induction of NOS2 expression. We could also show inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS)-dependent biodegradation of GDYO in M1 macrophages, and this was corroborated in an acellular system using the peroxynitrite donor, SIN-1. Furthermore, GDYO elicited the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines in a biodegradation-dependent manner. Our findings shed new light on the reciprocal interactions between GDYO and human macrophages. This is relevant for biomedical applications of GDYO such as the re-education of tumor-associated macrophages or TAMs.

Abstract
With the wide application of plastics in daily life, nanoplastics (NPs) are ubiquitous in freshwater environments. However, to date, few studies have focused on the mechanism underlying the toxicity of NPs, and the differences between this mechanism and that governing the toxicity of MPs have also not been thoroughly characterized. In this study, the genotoxicity, intestinal damage, and intestinal flora in Corbicula fluminea exposed to micro/nanoplastics were investigated through RNA sequencing, histopathology, and 16S rRNA sequencing, respectively. Significant differences in differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were observed between MP and NP exposure groups. It was observed that NPs preferentially elicited the process related to cellular components and triggered the apoptosis through the mitochondrial pathway in various tissues, especially in indirectly contacted tissues, while MPs induced the innate immune response and activated the complement and coagulation cascades (complement system) pathway. Both MPs and NPs can induce an inflammatory response and cause epithelial damage in the intestines, and they can notably change the gut microbial community structure. However, the abundance of pathogenic bacteria (e.g., Mycoplasma) was observed to increase only in the MP-treated group, which exacerbated intestinal damage. Unlike MPs, the effect of NPs on the intestinal microflora was highly limited, while NPs elicited more severe damage to the intestinal mucosal barrier. The results of this study may help to elucidate the toxicity mechanisms governing the responses of bivalves to MPs and NPs and to evaluate the detriment of MPs and NPs to the benthic ecosystem.

Abstract
The success of graphene oxide (GO) has attracted extensive research interests in developing novel 2D nanomaterials (NMs). Graphdiyne (GDY) is a new member of carbon-based 2D NMs possessing sp- and sp2 -hybridized carbon atoms. However, the toxicity of GDY is less investigated as GO. In this study, we compared the toxicity of GDY and GO with human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Exposure to up to 100-μg/ml GDY and GO induced cytotoxicity, but there was no statistically significant difference between GDY and GO. At noncytotoxic concentration, 25-μg/ml GDY or GO led to the internalization of NMs, typically in cytoplasm but not in nuclei. Only GO but not GDY significantly increased THP-1 adhesion onto NM-exposed HUVECs. Meanwhile, compared with GDY, GO more effectively promoted the release of soluble intracellular cell adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1), indicating the differential effects of GDY and GO on endothelial activation. Neither GDY nor GO induced intracellular superoxide. However, GO significantly promoted the expression of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress genes activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4) and X-box binding protein 1 spliced (XBP-1s), as well pyroptosis genes NLR family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) and gasdermin D (GSDMD), whereas GDY did not show this effect. The results suggested that GDY and GO could be internalized into HUVECs leading to cytotoxic effects. However, GO was more potent to activate endothelial activation probably due to the activation of ER stress and pyroptosis genes.

Abstract
Radiation treatments often unfavorably damage neighboring healthy organs and cause a series of radiation sequelae, such as radiation-induced hematopoietic system diseases, radiation-induced gastrointestinal diseases, radiation-induced lung diseases, and radiation-induced skin diseases. Recently, emerging nanomaterials have exhibited good superiority for these radiation-induced disease treatments. Given this background, the rational design principle of nanomaterials, which helps to optimize the therapeutic efficiency, has been an increasing need. Consequently, it is of great significance to perform a systematic summarization of the advances in this field, which can trigger the development of new high-performance nanoradioprotectors with drug efficiency maximization. Herein, this review highlights the advances and perspectives in the rational design of nanomaterials for preventing and treating various common radiation-induced diseases. Furthermore, the sources, clinical symptoms, and pathogenesis/injury mechanisms of these radiation-induced diseases will also be introduced. Furthermore, current challenges and directions for future efforts in this field are also discussed.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play an essential role in physiological and pathological processes. Studies on the regulation of ROS for disease treatments have caused wide concern, mainly involving the topics in ROS-regulating therapy such as antioxidant therapy triggered by ROS scavengers and ROS-induced toxic therapy mediated by ROS-elevation agents. Benefiting from the remarkable advances of nanotechnology, a large number of nanomaterials with the ROS-regulating ability are developed to seek new and effective ROS-related nanotherapeutic modalities or nanomedicines. Although considerable achievements have been made in ROS-based nanomedicines for disease treatments, some fundamental but key questions such as the rational design principle for ROS-related nanomaterials are held in low regard. Here, the design principle can serve as the initial framework for scientists and technicians to design and optimize the ROS-regulating nanomedicines, thereby minimizing the gap of nanomedicines for biomedical application during the design stage. Herein, an overview of the current progress of ROS-associated nanomedicines in disease treatments is summarized. And then, by particularly addressing these known strategies in ROS-associated therapy, several fundamental and key principles for the design of ROS-associated nanomedicines are presented. Finally, future perspectives are also discussed in depth for the development of ROS-associated nanomedicines.

Abstract
Engineered nanomaterials that produce reactive oxygen species on exposure to X- and gamma-rays used in radiation therapy offer promise of novel cancer treatment strategies. Similar to photodynamic therapy but suitable for large and deep tumors, this new approach where nanomaterials acting as sensitizing agents are combined with clinical radiation can be effective at well-tolerated low radiation doses. Suitably engineered nanomaterials can enhance cancer radiotherapy by increasing the tumor selectivity and decreasing side effects. Additionally, the nanomaterial platform offers therapeutically valuable functionalities, including molecular targeting, drug/gene delivery, and adaptive responses to trigger drug release. The potential of such nanomaterials to be combined with radiotherapy is widely recognized. In order for further breakthroughs to be made, and to facilitate clinical translation, the applicable principles and fundamentals should be articulated. This review focuses on mechanisms underpinning rational nanomaterial design to enhance radiation therapy, the understanding of which will enable novel ways to optimize its therapeutic efficacy. A roadmap for designing nanomaterials with optimized anticancer performance is also shown and the potential clinical significance and future translation are discussed.

Abstract
Recent clinical and pathological evidence have implicated the gut microbiota as a nexus for modulating the homeostasis of the human body, impacting conditions from cancer and dementia to obesity and social behavior. The connections between microbiota and human diseases offer numerous opportunities in medicine, most of which have limited or no therapeutic solutions available. In light of this paradigm-setting trend in science, this review aims to provide a comprehensive and timely summary of the mechanistic pathways governing the gut microbiota and their implications for nanomedicines targeting cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. Specifically, we discuss in parallel the beneficial and pathogenic relationship of the gut microbiota along the gut-brain and gut-cancer axes, elaborate on the impact of dysbiosis and the gastrointestinal corona on the efficacy of nanomedicines, and highlight a molecular mimicry that manipulates the universal cross-β backbone of bacterial amyloid to accelerate neurological disorders. This review further offers a forward-looking section on the rational design of cancer and dementia nanomedicines exploiting the gut-brain and gut-cancer axes.
