Abstract
Nanocatalytic medicine, which aims to accurately target and effectively treat tumors through intratumoral in situ catalytic reactions triggered by tumor-specific environments or markers, is an emerging technology. However, the relative lack of catalytic activity of nanoenzymes in the tumor microenvironment (TME) has hampered their use in biomedical applications. Therefore, it is crucial to develop a highly sensitive probe that specifically responds to the TME or disease markers in the TME for precision diagnosis and treatment of diseases. In this work, a chiral photoacoustic (PA) nanoprobe (D/L-Ce@MoO3) based on the H2O2-catalyzed TME activation reaction was constructed in a one-step method using D-cysteine (D-Cys) or L-cysteine (L-Cys), polymolybdate, and cerium nitrate as raw materials. The designed and synthesized D/L-Ce@MoO3 chiral nanoprobe can perform in situ, non-invasive, and precise imaging of pharmacological acute liver injury. In vivo and in vitro experiments have shown that the D/L-Ce@MoO3 probe had chiral properties, the CD signal decreased upon reaction with H2O2, and the absorption and PA signals increased with increasing H2O2 concentration. This is because of the catalytic reaction between Ce ions doped in the nanoenzyme and the high expression of H2O2 caused by drug-induced liver injury to produce ·OH, which has a strong oxidizing property to kill tumor cells and destroy the Mo-S bond in the probe, thus converting the chiral probe into an achiral polyoxometalate (POM) with PA signal.

Abstract
In this research, we utilized an efficient approach to synthesize superparamagnetic graphene oxide (SPGO) rapidly in a one-pot method using microwave irradiation of graphene oxide (GO), urea, and Fe(III) ion. Tannic acid (TA) was introduced to the surface of SPGO through a straightforward and eco-friendly process. Methods were devised to furnish GO nanosheets and modify their surfaces with TA in an environmentally friendly manner. Two series of nanosheets, namely, SPGO/TA-COOH and SPGO/TA-IM, were engineered on the surface and used for immobilizing lipase enzyme. Through various analytical tools, the unique biocatalysts SPGO/TA-COOH/L and SPGO/TA-IM/L were confirmed. These biocatalysts exhibited enhanced stability at high temperatures and pH levels compared with free lipase. They also demonstrated prolonged storage stability and reusability over four months and seven cycles, respectively. Furthermore, the catalytic activity of immobilized lipase showed minimal impairment based on kinetic behavior analysis. The kinetic constants of SPGO/TA-IM/L were determined as Vmax = 0.24 mM min-1, Km = 0.224 mM, and kcat = 0.8 s-1. Additionally, the efficiency of biocatalysts for biodiesel production from palmitic acid was studied, focusing on various reaction parameters, such as temperature, alcohol to palmitic acid molar ratio, water content, and lipase quantity. The esterification reaction of palmitic acid with methanol, ethanol, and isopropanol was tested in the presence of SPGO/TA-COOH/L and SPGO/TA-IM/L, and the corresponding esters were obtained with a yield of 30.6-91.6%.

Abstract
Conventional bone scaffolds, which are mainly ascribed to highly active osteoclasts and an inflammatory microenvironment with high levels of reactive oxygen species and pro-inflammatory factors, barely satisfy osteoporotic defect repair. Herein, multifunctional self-assembled supramolecular fiber hydrogels (Ce-Aln gel) consisting of alendronate (Aln) and cerium (Ce) ions were constructed for osteoporotic bone defect repair. Based on the reversible interaction and polyvalent cerium ions, the Ce-Aln gel, which was mainly composed of ionic coordination and hydrogen bonds, displayed good injectability and autocatalytic amplification of the antioxidant effect. In vitro studies showed that the Ce-Aln gel effectively maintained the biological function of osteoblasts by regulating redox homeostasis and improved the inflammatory microenvironment to enhance the inhibitory effect on osteoclasts. Ribonucleic acid (RNA) sequencing further revealed significant downregulation of various metabolic pathways, including apoptosis signaling, hypoxia metabolism and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) signaling via the nuclear factor kappa-B pathway after treatment with the Ce-Aln gel. In vivo experiments showed that the clinical drug-based Ce-Aln gel effectively promoted the tissue repair of osteoporotic bone defects by improving inflammation and inhibiting osteoclast formation at the defect. Notably, in vivo systemic osteoporosis was significantly ameliorated, highlighting the strong potential of clinical translation for precise therapy of bone defects.

Abstract
Despite significant efforts by scientists in the development of advanced nanotechnology materials for smart diagnosis devices and drug delivery systems, the success of clinical trials remains largely elusive. In order to address this biomedical challenge, magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) have gained attention as a promising candidate due to their theranostic properties, which allow the simultaneous treatment and diagnosis of a disease. Moreover, MNPs have advantageous characteristics such as a larger surface area, high surface-to-volume ratio, enhanced mobility, mass transference and, more notably, easy manipulation under external magnetic fields. Besides, certain magnetic particle types based on the magnetite (Fe3O4) phase have already been FDA-approved, demonstrating biocompatible and low toxicity. Typically, surface modification and/or functional group conjugation are required to prevent oxidation and particle aggregation. A wide range of inorganic and organic molecules have been utilized to coat the surface of MNPs, including surfactants, antibodies, synthetic and natural polymers, silica, metals, and various other substances. Furthermore, various strategies have been developed for the synthesis and surface functionalization of MNPs to enhance their colloidal stability, biocompatibility, good response to an external magnetic field, etc. Both uncoated MNPs and those coated with inorganic and organic compounds exhibit versatility, making them suitable for a range of applications such as drug delivery systems (DDS), magnetic hyperthermia, fluorescent biological labels, biodetection and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Thus, this review provides an update of recently published MNPs works, providing a current discussion regarding their strategies of synthesis and surface modifications, biomedical applications, and perspectives.

Abstract
Prussian blue nanoparticles exhibit the potential to be employed in bioanalytical applications due to their robust stability, peroxidase-like catalytic functionality, straightforward synthesis, and biocompatibility. An efficient approach is presented for the synthesis of nucleic acid-modified Prussian blue nanoparticles (DNA-PBNPs), utilizing nanoparticle porosity to adsorb nucleic acids (polyT). This strategic adsorption leads to the exposure of nucleic acid sequences on the particle surface while retaining catalytic activity. DNA-PBNPs further couple with functional nucleic acid sequences and aptamers through complementary base pairing to act as transducers in biosensors and amplify signal acquisition. Subsequently, we integrated a copper ion-dependent DNAzyme (Cu2+-DNAzyme) and a vascular endothelial growth factor aptamer (VEGF aptamer) onto screen-printed electrodes to serve as recognition elements for analytes. Significantly, our approach leverages DNA-PBNPs as a superior alternative to traditional enzyme-linked antibodies in electrochemical biosensors, thereby enhancing both the efficiency and adaptability of these devices. Our study conclusively demonstrates the application of DNA-PBNPs in two different biosensing paradigms: the sensitive detection of copper ions and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). These results indicate the promising potential of DNA-modified Prussian blue nanoparticles in advancing bioanalytical sensing technologies.

Abstract
Ultrasmall platinum (Pt) nanozymes are used for catalytic therapy and oxygen (O2)-dependent photodynamic therapy (PDT) by harnessing the dual-enzyme activities of catalase (CAT) and peroxidase (POD). However, their applications as nanocatalysts are limited due to their low catalytic activity. Herein, we constructed a photothermal-promoted bimetallic nanoplatform (AuNTP@Pt-IR808) by depositing ultrasmall Pt nano-islands and modifying 1-(5-Carboxypentyl)-2-(2-(3-(2-(1-(5-carboxypentyl)-3,3-dimethylindolin-2-ylidene)ethylidene)-2-chlorocyclohex-1-en-1-yl)vinyl)-3,3-dimethyl-3H-indol-1-ium bromide (IR808) on gold nanotetrapod (AuNTP) with CAT/POD activities to enhance PDT/catalytic therapy. In the tumor microenvironment, the ultrasmall Pt can catalyze endogenous hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to produce O2, relieving tumor hypoxia and enhancing the PDT performance. Moreover, AuNTP integration into the bimetallic nanoplatform showed good electron transfer properties and promoted the POD activity of ultrasmall Pt. Importantly, AuNTP@Pt-IR808 possessed higher photothermal conversion performance than single AuNTPs, which enhanced photothermal therapy (PTT). It also accelerated the CAT/POD dual-enzyme activities, and promoted the generation of singlet oxygen (1O2) and hydroxyl radical (OH). By enhancing the performances of PTT/PDT/catalytic therapy, the developed AuNTP@Pt-IR808 nanoplatform demonstrated good antitumor efficacy against breast cancer.

Abstract
Pb(II) is a prevalent heavy metal ion classified as a 2B carcinogen. Excessive intake of Pb(II) in the human body can damage the central nervous system, kidneys, liver, and immune system, leading to permanent brain damage, anemia, and cancer. Colorimetry can be applied to rapidly determine Pb(II) residues, but there are still many challenges in the accuracy and sensitivity of detection. Based on the inhibitory impact of Pb(II) on the oxidase-like activity of octahedral silver oxide (Ag2O), a colorimetric sensor with smartphone-assisted analysis for the Pb(II) detection was first developed. Herein, it has been found that Pb(II) can adsorb onto the surface of octahedral Ag2O, hindering the production of O2- in the reaction system. This ultimately results in the suppression of oxidase-like activity, leading to a lighter purple appearance of the colorimetric reaction solution. The sensor exhibits a high degree of sensitivity and a limit of detection (LOD) for Pb(II) was calculated as 2.2 μg L-1. Hence, the developed colorimetric sensor with high sensitivity, excellent specificity, and high tolerance to sodium ions is hopeful to have practical applications in Pb(II) detection in environmental water samples. Moreover, the sensor will provide a novel strategy for heavy metal ion detection and other substances.

Abstract
Understanding the interactions between amines and the surface of gold nanoparticles is important because of their role in the stabilization of the nanosystems, in the formation of the protein corona, and in the preparation of semisynthetic nanozymes. By using fluorescence spectroscopy, electrochemistry, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, and molecular simulation, a detailed picture of these interactions is obtained. Herein, it is shown that amines interact with surface Au(0) atoms of the nanoparticles with their lone electron pair with a strength linearly correlating with their basicity corrected for steric hindrance. The kinetics of binding depends on the position of the gold atoms (flat surfaces or edges) while the mode of binding involves a single Au(0) with nitrogen sitting on top of it. A small fraction of surface Au(I) atoms, still present, is reduced by the amines yielding a much stronger Au(0)-RN.+ (RN. , after the loss of a proton) interaction. In this case, the mode of binding involves two Au(0) atoms with a bridging nitrogen placed between them. Stable Au nanoparticles, as those required for robust semisynthetic nanozymes preparation, are better obtained when the protein is involved (at least in part) in the reduction of the gold ions.

Abstract
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a prevalent chronic inflammatory skin disease that carries a significant global economic burden. Elevated levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been recognized as contributing to AD exacerbation, making them a potential therapeutic target for AD treatment. Here, we introduce a dual-site biomimetic copper/zinc metal-organic framework (Cu/Zn-MOF) featuring four types of enzyme-like activities for AD treatment via suppressing the Fcγ receptor (FcγR)-mediated phagocytosis signal by mimicking the bimetallic sites of natural copper-zinc superoxide dismutase (CuZn-SOD). Interestingly, the neighboring Cu and Zn sites in both Cu/Zn-MOF and CuZn-SOD are at similar distances of ∼5.98 and ∼6.3 Å from each other, respectively, and additionally, both Cu and Zn sites are coordinated to nitrogen atoms in both structures, and the coordinating ligands to Cu and Zn are both imidazole rings. Cu/Zn-MOF exhibits remarkable SOD-like activity as well as its glutathione peroxidase (GPx)-, thiol peroxidase (TPx)-, and ascorbate peroxidase (APx)-like activities to continuously consume ROS and mitigate oxidative stress in keratinocytes. Animal experiments show that Cu/Zn-MOF outperforms halcinonide solution (a potent steroid medication) in terms of preventing mechanical injuries, reducing cutaneous water loss, and inhibiting inflammatory responses while presenting favorable biosafety. Mechanistically, Cu/Zn-MOF functions through an FcγR-mediated phagocytosis signal pathway, decreasing the continuous accumulation of ROS in AD and ultimately suppressing disease progression. These findings will provide an effective paradigm for AD therapy and contribute to the development of two-site bionics (TSB).

Abstract
The use of oxidoreductase nanozymes to regulate reactive oxygen species (ROS) has gradually emerged in periodontology treatments. However, current nanozymes for treating periodontitis eliminate ROS extensively and non-specifically, ignoring the physiological functions of ROS under normal conditions, which may result in uncontrolled side effects. Herein, using the MIL-47(V)-F (MVF) nanozyme, which mimics the function of glutathione peroxidase (GPx), it is proposed that ROS can be properly regulated by specifically eliminating H2 O2 , the most prominent ROS. Through H2 O2 elimination, MVF contributes to limiting inflammation, regulating immune microenvironment, and promoting periodontal regeneration. Moreover, MVF stimulates osteogenic differentiation of periodontal stem cells directly, further promoting regeneration due to the vanadium in MVF. Mechanistically, MVF regulates ROS by activating the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2/heme oxygenase 1 (Nrf2/HO-1) pathway and promotes osteogenic differentiation directly through the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/Akt) pathway. A promising periodontitis therapy strategy is presented using GPx-mimicking nanozymes through their triple effects of antioxidation, immunomodulation, and bone remodeling regulation, making nanozymes an excellent tool for developing precision medicine.

Abstract
High blood glucose levels are a hallmark of the metabolic syndrome known as diabetes mellitus. More than 600 million people will have diabetes by 2045 as the global prevalence of the disease continues to rise. Contemporary antidiabetic drugs reduce hyperglycemia and its consequences. However, these drugs come with undesirable side effects, so it's encouraging that research into plant extracts and bioactive substances with antidiabetic characteristics is on the rise. Natural remedies are preferable to conventional anti-diabetic drugs since they are safer for the body, more affordable and have fewer potential adverse effects. Biological macromolecules such as liposomes, niosomes, polymeric nanoparticles, solid lipid nanoparticles, nanoemulsions and metallic nanoparticles are explored in this review. Current drug restrictions have been addressed, and the effectiveness of plant-based antidiabetic therapies has enhanced the merits of these methods. Plant extracts' loading capacity and the carriers' stability are the primary obstacles in developing plant-based nanocarriers. Hydrophilic, hydrophobic, and amphiphilic drugs are covered, and a brief overview of the amphipathic features of liposomes, phospholipids, and lipid nanocarriers is provided. Metallic nanoparticles' benefits and attendant risks are highlighted to emphasize their efficiency in treating hyperglycemia. Researchers interested in the potential of nanoparticles loaded with plant extracts as antidiabetic therapeutics may find the current helpful review.

Abstract
Single-atom nanozymes (SANs) are nanomaterials-based nanozymes with atomically dispersed enzyme-like active sites. SANs offer improved as well as tunable catalytic activity. The creation of extremely effective SANs and their potential uses have piqued researchers' curiosity due to their advantages of cheap cost, variable catalytic activity, high stability, and large-scale production. Furthermore, SANs with uniformly distributed active centers and definite coordination structures offer a distinctive opportunity to investigate the structure-activity correlation and control the geometric and electrical features of metal centers. SANs have been extensively explored in photo-, thermal-, and electro-catalysis. However, SANs suffer from the following disadvantages, such as efficiency, non-mimicking of the 3-D complexity of natural enzymes, limited and narrow range of artificial SANs, and biosafety aspects. Among a quite limited range of artificial SANs, the peroxidase action of SANs has attracted significant research attention in the last five years with the aim of producing reactive oxygen species for use in cancer therapy, and water treatment among many other applications. In this review, we explore the recent progress of different SANs as peroxidase mimics, the role of the metal center in enzymatic activity, possible prospects, and underlying limitations in real-time applications.

Abstract
Psoriasis is a common inflammatory disease of especially high recurrence rate (90%) which is suffered by approximately 3% of the world population. The overexpression of reactive oxygen species (ROS) plays a critical role in psoriasis progress. Here we show that biomimetic iron single-atom catalysts (FeN4O2-SACs) with broad-spectrum ROS scavenging capability can be used for psoriasis treatment and relapse prevention via related gene restoration. FeN4O2-SACs demonstrate attractive multiple enzyme-mimicking activities based on atomically dispersed Fe active structures, which are analogous to those of natural antioxidant enzymes, iron superoxide dismutase, human erythrocyte catalase, and ascorbate peroxidase. Further, in vitro and in vivo experiments show that FeN4O2-SACs can effectively ameliorate psoriasis-like symptoms and prevent the relapse with augmented efficacy compared with the clinical drug calcipotriol. Mechanistically, estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1) is identified as the core protein upregulated in psoriasis treatment through RNA sequencing and bioinformatic analysis. Together, this study provides a proof of concept of psoriasis catalytic therapy (PCT) and multienzyme-inspired bionics (MIB).

Abstract
Benefiting from low costs, structural diversities, tunable catalytic activities, feasible modifications, and high stability compared to the natural enzymes, reactive oxygen nanobiocatalysts (RONBCs) have become dominant materials in catalyzing and mediating reactive oxygen species (ROS) for diverse biomedical and biological applications. Decoding the catalytic mechanism and structure-reactivity relationship of RONBCs is critical to guide their future developments. Here, this timely review comprehensively summarizes the recent breakthroughs and future trends in creating and decoding RONBCs. First, the fundamental classification, activity, detection method, and reaction mechanism for biocatalytic ROS generation and elimination have been systematically disclosed. Then, the merits, modulation strategies, structure evolutions, and state-of-art characterisation techniques for designing RONBCs have been briefly outlined. Thereafter, we thoroughly discuss different RONBCs based on the reported major material species, including metal compounds, carbon nanostructures, and organic networks. In particular, we offer particular insights into the coordination microenvironments, bond interactions, reaction pathways, and performance comparisons to disclose the structure-reactivity relationships and mechanisms. In the end, the future challenge and perspectives for RONBCs are also carefully summarised. We envision that this review will provide a comprehensive understanding and guidance for designing ROS-catalytic materials and stimulate the wide utilisation of RONBCs in diverse biomedical and biological applications.

Abstract
Nanozymes mimic the function of enzymes, which drive essential intracellular chemical reactions that govern biological processes. They efficiently generate or degrade specific biomolecules that can initiate or inhibit biological processes, regulating cellular behaviors. Two approaches for utilizing nanozymes in intracellular chemistry have been reported. Biomimetic catalysis replicates the identical reactions of natural enzymes, and bioorthogonal catalysis enables chemistries inaccessible in cells. Various nanozymes based on nanomaterials and catalytic metals are employed to attain intended specific catalysis in cells either to mimic the enzymatic mechanism and kinetics or expand inaccessible chemistries. Each nanozyme approach has its own intrinsic advantages and limitations, making them complementary for diverse and specific applications. This review summarizes the strategies for intracellular catalysis and applications of biomimetic and bioorthogonal nanozymes, including a discussion of their limitations and future research directions.

Abstract
This review comprehensively covers synthetic catalysts for the hydrolysis of biorelevant phosphates and pyrophosphates, which bridge between nanoarchitectonics and biology to construct their interdisciplinary hybrids. In the early 1980s, remarkable catalytic activity of Ce4+ ion for phosphate hydrolysis was found. More recently, this finding has been extended to Ce-based solid catalysts (CeO2 and Ce-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs)), which are directly compatible with nanoarchitectonics. Monoesters and triesters of phosphates, as well as pyrophosphates, were effectively cleaved by these catalysts. With the use of either CeO2 nanoparticles or elegantly designed Ce-based MOF, highly stable phosphodiester linkages were also hydrolyzed. On the surfaces of all these solid catalysts, Ce4+ and Ce3+ coexist and cooperate for the catalysis. The Ce4+ activates phosphate substrates as a strong acid, whereas the Ce3+ provides metal-bound hydroxide as an eminent nucleophile. Applications of these Ce-based catalysts to practical purposes are also discussed.

Abstract
Nanozymes, nanomaterials with enzyme-mimicking activity, have attracted tremendous interest in recent years owing to their ability to replace natural enzymes in various biomedical applications, such as biosensing, therapeutics, drug delivery, and bioimaging. In particular, the nanozymes capable of regulating the cellular redox status by mimicking the antioxidant enzymes in mammalian cells are of great therapeutic significance in oxidative-stress-mediated disorders. As the distinction of physiological oxidative stress (oxidative eustress) and pathological oxidative stress (oxidative distress) occurs at a fine borderline, it is a great challenge to design nanozymes that can differentially sense the two extremes in cells, tissues and organs and mediate appropriate redox chemical reactions. In this Review, we summarize the advances in the development of redox-active nanozymes and their biomedical applications. We primarily highlight the therapeutic significance of the antioxidant and prooxidant nanozymes in various disease model systems, such as cancer, neurodegeneration, and cardiovascular diseases. The future perspectives of this emerging area of research and the challenges associated with the biomedical applications of nanozymes are described.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-based therapy has emerged as a promising strategy for the treatment of spinal cord injury (SCI). However, the hostile microenvironment of SCI, which can adversely affect the survival and paracrine effect of the implanted MSCs, severely limits the therapeutic efficacy of this approach. Here, we report on a ceria nanozyme-integrated thermoresponsive in situ forming hydrogel (CeNZ-gel) that can enable dual enhancement of MSC viability and paracrine effect, leading to highly efficient spinal cord repair. The sol-gel transition property of the CeNZ-gel at body temperature ensures uniform coverage of the hydrogel in injured spinal cord tissues. Our results demonstrate that the CeNZ-gel significantly increases the viability of transplanted MSCs in the microenvironment by attenuating oxidative stress and, more importantly, promotes the secretion of angiogenic factors from MSCs by inducing autophagy of MSCs. The synergy between the oxidative stress-relieving effect of CeNZs and the paracrine effect of MSCs accelerates angiogenesis, nerve repair, and motor function recovery after SCI, providing an efficient strategy for MSC-based SCI therapy.

Ceria Nanoparticles as Copper Chaperones that Activate SOD1 for Synergistic Antioxidant Therapy to Treat Ischemic Vascular Diseases. ADVANCED MATERIALS (DEERFIELD BEACH, FLA.) 2023; 35:e2208989.

Abstract
All exogenous nanomaterials undergo rapid biotransformation once injected into the body and fall short of executing the intended purpose. Here, it is reported that copper-deposited ceria nanoparticles (CuCe NPs) exhibit enhanced antioxidant effects over pristine ceria nanoparticles, as the released copper buffers the depletion of glutathione while providing the bioavailable copper as a cofactor for the antioxidant enzyme, superoxide dismutase 1. The upregulated intracellular antioxidants along with the ceria nanoparticles synergistically scavenge reactive oxygen species and promote anti-inflammation and M2 polarization of macrophages by modulating signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 and 6 (STAT1 and STAT6). The therapeutic effect of CuCe NPs is demonstrated in ischemic vascular diseases (i.e., murine models of hindlimb ischemia and myocardial infarction) in which the copper-deposition affords increased perfusion and alleviation in tissue damage. The results provide rationale that metal oxide nanomaterials can be designed in a way to induce the upregulation of specific biological factors for optimal therapeutic performance.

Nanodrugs alleviate acute kidney injury: Manipulate RONS at kidney. Bioact Mater 2023; 22:141-167. [PMID: 36203963 PMCID: PMC9526023 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2022.09.021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 28.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2022] [Revised: 08/12/2022] [Accepted: 09/19/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Currently, there are no clinical drugs available to treat acute kidney injury (AKI). Given the high prevalence and high mortality rate of AKI, the development of drugs to effectively treat AKI is a huge unmet medical need and a research hotspot. Although existing evidence fully demonstrates that reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS) burst at the AKI site is a major contributor to AKI progression, the heterogeneity, complexity, and unique physiological structure of the kidney make most antioxidant and anti-inflammatory small molecule drugs ineffective because of the lack of kidney targeting and side effects. Recently, nanodrugs with intrinsic kidney targeting through the control of size, shape, and surface properties have opened exciting prospects for the treatment of AKI. Many antioxidant nanodrugs have emerged to address the limitations of current AKI treatments. In this review, we systematically summarized for the first time about the emerging nanodrugs that exploit the pathological and physiological features of the kidney to overcome the limitations of traditional small-molecule drugs to achieve high AKI efficacy. First, we analyzed the pathological structural characteristics of AKI and the main pathological mechanism of AKI: hypoxia, harmful substance accumulation-induced RONS burst at the renal site despite the multifactorial initiation and heterogeneity of AKI. Subsequently, we introduced the strategies used to improve renal targeting and reviewed advances of nanodrugs for AKI: nano-RONS-sacrificial agents, antioxidant nanozymes, and nanocarriers for antioxidants and anti-inflammatory drugs. These nanodrugs have demonstrated excellent therapeutic effects, such as greatly reducing oxidative stress damage, restoring renal function, and low side effects. Finally, we discussed the challenges and future directions for translating nanodrugs into clinical AKI treatment. AKI is a common clinical acute syndrome with high morbidity and mortality but without effective clinical drug available. Hypoxia and accumulation of toxic substances are key pathological features of various heterogeneous AKI. Excessive RONS is the core of the pathological mechanism of AKI. The development of nanodrugs is expected to achieve successful treatment in AKI.

Abstract
Poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) nanoparticles (NPs) are commonly used for drug delivery because of their favored biocompatibility and suitability for sustained and controlled drug release. To prolong NP circulation time, enable target-specific drug delivery and overcome physiological barriers, NPs camouflaged in cell membranes have been developed and evaluated to improve drug delivery. Here, we discuss recent advances in cell membrane-coated PLGA NPs, their preparation methods, and their application to cancer therapy, management of inflammation, treatment of cardiovascular disease and control of infection. We address the current challenges and highlight future research directions needed for effective use of cell membrane-camouflaged NPs.

Dendrimers as Modifiers of Inorganic Nanoparticles for Therapeutic Delivery in Cancer. Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:pharmaceutics15020398.

Abstract
The formulation of nanoscale systems with well-defined sizes and shapes is of great interest in applications such as drug and gene delivery, diagnostics and imaging. Dendrimers are polymers that have attracted interest due to their size, shape, branching length, amine density, and surface functionalities. These unique characteristics of dendrimers set them apart from other polymers, their ability to modify nanoparticles (NPs) for biomedical applications. Dendrimers are spherical with multiple layers over their central core, each representing a generation. Their amphiphilic nature and hollow structure allow for the incorporation of multiple drugs or genes, in addition to enabling easy surface modification with cellular receptor-targeting moieties to ensure site-specific delivery of therapeutics. Dendrimers are employed in chemotherapeutic applications for the delivery of anticancer drugs. There are many inorganic NPs currently being investigated for cancer therapy, each with their own unique biological, chemical, and physical properties. To favor biomedical applications, inorganic NPs require suitable polymers to ensure stability, biodegradability and target specificity. The success of dendrimers is dependent on their unique structure, good bioavailability and stability. In this review, we describe the properties of dendrimers and their use as modifiers of inorganic NPs for enhanced therapeutic delivery. Herein, we review the significant developments in this area from 2015 to 2022. Databases including Web of Science, Scopus, Google Scholar, Science Direct, BioMed Central (BMC), and PubMed were searched for articles using dendrimers, inorganic nanoparticles and cancer as keywords.

Abstract
Cerium oxide (CeO2) is a well-known antioxidant with the ability to scavenge reactive oxygen species due to its unique electronic structure and chemical properties. Although many methods to enhance the antioxidant activity of CeO2have been reported, its antioxidant activity is still not high enough, and some enhancement effects are limited by the material concentration. There are also some CeO2obtained with high antioxidant activity at high concentrations, which is not conducive to the application of biomedicine. Therefore, it is urgent to obtain CeO2material with low cell cytotoxicity, high antioxidant activity and wide application range. In this work, rod-like metal organic framework derived CeO2(CeO2-MOF) was prepared by a simple method. Compared with the CeO2nanorods prepared by hydrothermal method, it shows better antioxidant activity compared with the CeO2nanorods prepared by hydrothermal method. Moreover, the advantage of CeO2-MOF's antioxidant activity is not affected by the hydroxyl radical and material concentrations The reason why CeO2-MOF has higher antioxidant activity should be attributed to its higher Ce3+content and larger specific surface area. In addition, CeO2-MOF also exhibits low cytotoxicity to HeLa cells and PC12 cellsin vitro. The strategy of using MOF as a structural and compositional material to create CeO2provides a new method to explore highly efficient and biocompatible CeO2for practical applications.

Abstract
Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is one of the major antioxidants in vivo and is expected to play critical roles on the defense against reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated damages, such as ionizing radiation damages. Herein, inspired by the function and structure of natural SODs and cerium oxide nanozymes, two monovalent cerium-based metal organic frameworks (Ce-MOFs), CeIIIBTC and CeIVBTC, were designed for superoxide radical (O2•-) elimination and ionizing radiation protection. These two Ce-MOFs selectively scavenge O2•- and are excellent SOD mimics. Like natural SODs and cerium oxide nanozymes, the SOD-like catalytic mechanism of Ce-MOFs involves a cycle between Ce(IV) and Ce(III). Furthermore, by constructing monovalent Ce-MOFs, we found that high-valent CeIVBTC are more effective SOD-like nanozymes compared to CeIIIBTC. With smaller size, better monodispersity, and more effective SOD-like activity, CeIVBTC nanozymes were further applied for ionizing radiation protection. Both in vitro and in vivo results demonstrated that CeIVBTC nanozymes could efficiently scavenge ROS, prevent cells from γ-ray radiation-induced cell viability decrease and DNA damages, and improve the survival rate of irradiated mice by recovering the bone marrow DNA damage and alleviating oxidative stress of tissues. The protective effect and good biocompatibility of CeIVBTC nanozymes will enable the development of Ce-MOFs-based radioprotectants and facilitate treatment of other ROS-related diseases.

Abstract
In this study, organo-inorganic nanohybrids LHGd-MTSPP with enzyme-like activity were prepared by in situ intercalation of anionic 5,10,15,20-tetrakis-(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrin and its complexes with Zn(II) and Pd(II) (MTSPP, M = 2H, Zn(II) and Pd(II)) into gadolinium layered hydroxide (LHGd). The combination of powder XRD, CHNS analysis, FT-IR, EDX, and TG confirmed the layered structure of the reaction products. The basal interplanar distances in LHGd-MTSPP samples were 22.3-22.6 Å, corresponding to the size of an intercalated tetrapyrrole molecule. According to SEM data, LHGd-MTSPP hybrids consisted of individual lamellar nanoparticles 20-50 nm in thickness. The enzyme-like activity of individual constituents, LHGd-Cl and sulfoporphyrins TSPP, ZnTSPP and PdTSPP, and hybrid LHGd-MTSPP materials, was studied by chemiluminescence analysis using the ABAP/luminol system in phosphate buffer solution. All the individual porphyrins exhibited dose-dependent antioxidant properties with respect to alkylperoxyl radicals at pH 7.4. The intercalation of free base TSPP porphyrin into the LHGd preserved the radical scavenging properties of the product. Conversely, in LHGd-MTSPP samples containing Zn(II) and Pd(II) complexes, the antioxidant properties of the porphyrins changed to dose-dependent prooxidant activity. Thus, an efficient approach to the design and synthesis of advanced LHGd-MTSPP materials with switchable enzyme-like activity was developed.

Abstract
Nanozymes, a type of nanomaterials that function similarly to natural enzymes, receive extensive attention in biomedical fields. However, the widespread applications of nanozymes are greatly plagued by their unsatisfactory enzyme-mimicking activity. Localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR), a nanoscale physical phenomenon described as the collective oscillation of surface free electrons in plasmonic nanoparticles under light irradiation, offers a robust universal paradigm to boost the catalytic performance of nanozymes. Plasmonic nanozymes (PNzymes) with elevated enzyme-mimicking activity by leveraging LSPR, emerge and provide unprecedented opportunities for biocatalysis. In this review, the physical mechanisms behind PNzymes are thoroughly revealed including near-field enhancement, hot carriers, and the photothermal effect. The rational design and applications of PNzymes in biosensing, cancer therapy, and bacterial infections elimination are systematically introduced.

Abstract
As pioneering Fe3O4 nanozymes, their explicit peroxidase (POD)-like catalytic mechanism remains elusive. Although many studies have proposed surface Fe2+-induced Fenton-like reactions accounting for their POD-like activity, few have focused on the internal atomic changes and their contribution to the catalytic reaction. Here we report that Fe2+ within Fe3O4 can transfer electrons to the surface via the Fe2+-O-Fe3+ chain, regenerating the surface Fe2+ and enabling a sustained POD-like catalytic reaction. This process usually occurs with the outward migration of excess oxidized Fe3+ from the lattice, which is a rate-limiting step. After prolonged catalysis, Fe3O4 nanozymes suffer the phase transformation to γ-Fe2O3 with depletable POD-like activity. This self-depleting characteristic of nanozymes with internal atoms involved in electron transfer and ion migration is well validated on lithium iron phosphate nanoparticles. We reveal a neglected issue concerning the necessity of considering both surface and internal atoms when designing, modulating, and applying nanozymes. The mechanism of peroxidase-like Fe3O4 nanozymes remains elusive. Here, the authors show the electron transfer mechanism of Fe(II) ions to regenerate surface Fe(II) and the related phase transformation and depletion of activity.

Abstract
Ferroptosis, an iron-dependent regulated cell death process driven by excessive lipid peroxides, can enhance cancer vulnerability to chemotherapy, targeted therapy and immunotherapy. As an essential upstream process for ferroptosis activation, lipid peroxidation of biological membranes is expected to be primarily induced by intrabilayer reactive oxygen species (ROS), indicating a promising strategy to initiate peroxidation by improving the local content of diffusion-limited ROS in the lipid bilayer. Herein, liposomes embedded with PEG-coated 3 nm γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles in the bilayer (abbreviated as Lp-IO) were constructed to promote the intrabilayer generation of hydroxyl radicals (•OH) from hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), and the integration of amphiphilic PEG moieties with liposomal bilayer improved lipid membrane permeability to H2O2 and •OH, resulting in efficient initiation of lipid peroxidation and thus ferroptosis in cancer cells. Additionally, Lp-IO enabled traceable magnetic resonance imaging and pH/ROS dual-responsive drug delivery. Synergistic antineoplastic effects of chemotherapy and ferroptosis, and alleviated chemotherapeutic toxicity, were achieved by delivering doxorubicin (capable of xCT and glutathione peroxidase inhibition) with Lp-IO. This work provides an efficient alternative for triggering therapeutic lipid peroxidation and a ferroptosis-activating drug delivery vehicle for combination cancer therapies.

Abstract
Serious lung diseases and other health problems caused by tobacco consumption are becoming more and more prominent all over the world. Scavenging the excessive harmful free radicals in cigarette smoke is proven to be an effective method in reducing the above problems. Carbon-based nanozymes have been widely studied due to their ability of scavenging free radicals. Accordingly, the biochar derived from silkworm excrement was reported as a nanozyme with free radical scavenging ability. The biochar nanozyme calcination at 900 °C with better free radical scavenging abilities was loaded into commercial cigarette filters for the following free radical scavenging verification in tobacco smoke. Mouse model results reveal the lung tissue could be improved by the addition of biochar nanozyme. This work not only provides an effective approach to reduce the harm caused by tobacco but also provides potential applications to rationally realize low-cost, ease of production, and a wide variety of biochar sources.

Abstract
Ultrasound (US)-augmented tumor ablation with sono-catalysts has emerged as a promising therapeutic modality due to high tissue penetration, nonionizing performance, and low cost of US-based therapies. Developing peroxisome-mimetic cascade biocatalysts for US-augmented synergistic treatment would further effectively reduce the dependence of the microenvironment H2O2 and enhance the tumor-localized reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation. Here, we proposed and synthesized a novel spiky cascade biocatalyst as peroxisome-mimics that consist of multiple enzyme-mimics, i.e., glucose oxidase-mimics (Au nanoparticles for producing H2O2) and heme-mimetic atomic catalytic centers (Fe-porphyrin for ROS generation), for US-augmented cascade-catalytic tumor therapy. The synthesized spiky cascade biocatalysts exhibit an obvious spiky structure, uniform nanoscale size, independent of endogenous H2O2, and efficient US-responsive biocatalytic activities. The enzyme-mimetic biocatalytic experiments show that the spiky cascade biocatalysts can generate abundant ·OH via a cascade chemodynamic path and also 1O2 via US excitation. Then, we demonstrate that the spiky cascade biocatalysts show highly efficient ROS production to promote melanoma cell apoptosis under US irradiation without extra H2O2. Our in vivo animal data further reveal that the proposed US-assisted chemodynamic cascade therapies can significantly augment the therapy efficacy of malignant melanoma. We suggest that these efficient peroxisome-mimetic cascade-catalytic strategies will be promising for clinical tumor therapies.

Abstract
The structural change-mediated catalytic activity regulation plays a significant role in the biological functions of natural enzymes. However, there is virtually no artificial nanozyme reported that can achieve natural enzyme-like stringent spatiotemporal structure-based catalytic activity regulation. Here, we report a sub-nanostructural transformable gold@ceria (STGC-PEG) nanozyme that performs tunable catalytic activities via near-infrared (NIR) light-mediated sub-nanostructural transformation. The gold core in STGC-PEG can generate energetic hot electrons upon NIR irradiation, wherein an internal sub-nanostructural transformation is initiated by the conversion between CeO2 and electron-rich state of CeO2-x, and active oxygen vacancies generation via the hot-electron injection. Interestingly, the sub-nanostructural transformation of STGC-PEG enhances peroxidase-like activity and unprecedentedly activates plasmon-promoted oxidase-like activity, allowing highly efficient low-power NIR light (50 mW cm-2)-activated photocatalytic therapy of tumors. Our atomic-level design and fabrication provide a platform to precisely regulate the catalytic activities of nanozymes via a light-mediated sub-nanostructural transformation, approaching natural enzyme-like activity control in complex living systems.

Abstract
Engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) are artificially synthesized particles with unique physicochemical properties. ENPs are being extensively used in several consumer items, elevating the probability of ENP exposure to biological systems. ENPs interact with various biomolecules like lipids, proteins, nucleic acids, where proteins are most susceptible. The ENP-protein interactions are mostly studied for corona formation and its effect on the bio-reactivity of ENPs, however, an in-depth understanding of subsequent interactive effects on proteins, such as alterations in their structure, conformation, free energy, and folding is still required. The present review focuses on ENP-protein interactions and the subsequent effects on protein structure and function followed by the therapeutic potential of ENPs for protein misfolding diseases.

Abstract
Introduction Breast cancer has the highest mortality rate among cancers in women. Patients suffering from certain breast cancers, such as triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), lack effective treatments. This represents a clinical concern due to the associated poor prognosis and high mortality. As an approach to succeed over conventional therapy limitations, we present herein the design and evaluation of a novel nanodevice based on enzyme-functionalized gold nanoparticles to efficiently perform enzyme prodrug therapy (EPT) in breast cancer cells. Results In particular, the enzyme horseradish peroxidase (HRP) – which oxidizes the prodrug indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) to release toxic oxidative species – is incorporated on gold nanoconjugates (HRP-AuNCs), obtaining an efficient nanoplatform for EPT. The nanodevice is biocompatible and effectively internalized by breast cancer cell lines. Remarkably, co-treatment with HRP-AuNCs and IAA (HRP-AuNCs/IAA) reduces the viability of breast cancer cells below 5%. Interestingly, 3D tumor models (multicellular tumor spheroid-like cultures) co-treated with HRP-AuNCs/IAA exhibit a 74% reduction of cell viability, whereas the free formulated components (HRP, IAA) have no effect. Conclusion Altogether, our results demonstrate that the designed HRP-AuNCs nanoformulation shows a remarkable therapeutic performance. These findings might help to bypass the clinical limitations of current tumor enzyme therapies and advance towards the use of nanoformulations for EPT in breast cancer.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted extensive attention for the development of colorimetric detection methods due to their ease of modification and high density of active sites. However, most of the reported colorimetric sensors based on MOFs show only a single nanozyme activity. Herein, the bifunctional enzyme activities of a hexagonal prism Cu MOF with fumaric acid as the ligand (Cu FMA), namely laccase-like activity under alkaline conditions (pH = 8) and peroxidase-like activity under acidic conditions (pH = 4), were verified. The specificity of Cu FMA at different pH values may be due to the presence of the Cu+ active center introduced by the weak reducibility of FMA. At pH = 8, Cu+ active centers are beneficial for dissociating the H-O bonds of phenolic compounds for the laccase system. In contrast, the dissociation of H-O is weakened at pH = 4, which prompts the breaking of the O-O bonds of H2O2 as a Fenton-like reaction for the peroxidase system. Based on the dual enzyme activities, Cu FMA sensors exhibit outstanding detectability for epinephrine and glucose with linear ranges of 2.7-54.6 μM and 0.01-0.8 mM and detection limits of 1.1 μM and 2.28 × 10-7 M, respectively. The Cu FMA colorimetric sensor can be applied for detecting and measuring glucose and epinephrine in human serum samples. This work paves the way for Cu MOFs to be used as the basis for rational regulation of the activity of dual nanozymes and for multifunctional applications under completely independent conditions.

Abstract
Albeit metal-organic framework (MOF) composites have been extensively explored, reducing the size and dimensions of various contents within the composition, to the nanoscale regime, has recently presented unique opportunities for enhanced properties with the formation of MOF-based nanocomposites. Many distinctive strategies have been used to fabricate these nanocomposites such as through the introduction of nanoparticles (NPs) into a MOF precursor solution or vice versa to achieve a core-shell or heterostructure configuration. As such, MOF-based nanocomposites offer seemingly limitless possibilities and promising solutions for the vast range of applications across biomedical disciplines especially for improving in vivo implementation. In this review, we focus on the recent development of MOF-based nanocomposites, outline their classification according to the type of integrations (NPs, coating materials, and different MOF-derived nanocomposites), and direct special attention towards the various approaches and strategies employed to construct these nanocomposites for their prospective utilization in biomedical applications including biomimetic enzymes and photo, chemo, sonodynamic, starvation and hyperthermia therapies. Lastly, our work aims to highlight the exciting potential as well as the challenges of MOF-based nanocomposites to help guide future research as well as to contribute to the progress of MOF-based nanotechnology in biomedicine.

Abstract
The structural design of multiple functional components could integrate synergistic effects to enhance the catalytic performance of MoS2-based composites for catalytic applications. Herein, one-dimensional (1D) Co-MoS2/Pd@NCMTs composites were designed to prepare Co-doped MoS2/Pd nanosheets (NSs) on N-doped carbon microtubes (NCMTs) from tubular polypyrrole (PPy) as multifunctional catalysts. The Co-MoS2/Pd@NCMTs composites integrated the synergistic effects of Co-doping, a 1D tubular structure, and noble-metal Pd decoration. Thus, a higher catalytic activity was observed in 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) reduction and peroxidase-like catalysis than other components, such as MoS2, MoS2@NCMTs, and Co-MoS2@NCMTs. Remarkably, the results indicated that the dissolution, diffusion, and redistribution led to the dissolution of MoO3@ZIF-67 cores and generation of Co-doped MoS2 NSs. Benefiting from the synergistic effect from these components, Co-MoS2/Pd@NCMTs were considered as a facile colorimetric sensing platform for detecting tannic acid. Moreover, outstanding performance was realized in the reduction of 4-NP with the composites. Thus, we provide a simple synthetic strategy for simultaneously integrating electronic engineering and structural advantages to develop an efficient MoS2-based multifunctional catalyst.

Abstract
Gold nanoclusters (AuNCs) represent an emerging type of engineered nanomaterials with intrinsic enzymatic activity for both chemical and biological applications, but the catalytic activity of most reported AuNCs remains rather limited. Herein, we report a new, efficient strategy of promoting the peroxidase-mimic activity of AuNCs by tailoring their catalytic interfaces via small molecule-mediated weak interactions. Inspired by the presence of imidazole structures in many biocatalytic centers, we screened a series of imidazole-containing small molecules to evaluate their impact on the enzymatic activity of AuNCs. Through monitoring the absorbance change of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine, 1-methyl-2-imidazolecarboxaldehyde (MCA) was identified to possess the most significant effect on enhancing the peroxidase-mimic activity of glutathione-stabilized AuNCs (GSH-AuNCs) among all the examined molecules. Interestingly, the enhancement effect of MCA on the catalytic activity of these AuNCs was found to be highly reversible and can be switched on/off by simply adding MCA/dialysis treatment. Molecular dynamics simulations and further experimental analysis confirmed that these MCA molecules were adsorbed on the surface of GSH-AuNCs through weak non-covalent interactions. The underlying mechanism analysis suggested that the presence of MCA can efficiently promote the production of •OH in the GSH-AuNC system. As a proof of example, we then demonstrated that the presence of MCA can greatly increase the bioanalytical performance of AuNC-based peroxidase mimics, as evidenced by a 65-fold lower LOD for glucose detection of AuNCs@MCA than that using AuNCs only. Finally, the present system has been successfully applied for sensing the blood glucose level of both healthy people and diabetics with promising results.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease characterized by increased blood glucose levels, leading to damage of the nerves blood vessels, subsequently manifesting as organ failures, wounds, or ulcerations. Wounds in patients with diabetes are further complicated because of reduced cytokine responses, infection, poor vascularization, and delayed healing processes. Surface-functionalized and bioengineered nanoparticles (NPs) have recently gained attention as emerging treatment modalities for wound healing in diabetes. Here, we review emerging therapeutic NPs to treat diabetic wounds and highlight their discrete delivery mechanisms and sites of action. We further critically assess the current challenges of these nanoengineered materials for successful clinical translation and discuss their potential for growth in the clinical marketplace.
