Abstract
Designing adaptive and smart hydrogel wound dressings to meet specific needs across different stages of wound healing is crucial. Here, we present a composite hydrogel, GSC/PBE@Lut, that offers self-regulating release of cupric ions and luteolin and modulates mechanical properties to promote chronic wound healing. The double network hydrogel, GSC, is fabricated through photo-cross-linking of gelatin methacrylate, followed by Cu2+-alginate coordination cross-linking. On one hand, GSC allows for rapid Cu2+ release to eliminate bacteria in the acidic pH environment during inflammation and reduces the hydrogel's mechanical strength to minimize tissue trauma during early dressing changes. On the other hand, GSC enables slow Cu2+ release during the proliferation stage, promoting angiogenesis and biocompatibility. Furthermore, the inclusion of pH- and reactive oxygen species (ROS)-responsive luteolin nanoparticles (PBE@Lut) in the hydrogel matrix allows for controlled release of luteolin, offering antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects and promoting anti-inflammatory macrophage polarization. In a murine model of Staphylococcus aureus infected wounds, GSC/PBE@Lut demonstrates exceptional therapeutic benefits in antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, angiogenic, and tissue regeneration. Overall, our results suggest that smart hydrogels with controlled bioactive agent release and mechanical modulation present a promising solution for treating chronic wounds.

Abstract
Vascular diseases (VDs) pose the leading threat worldwide due to high morbidity and mortality. The detection of VDs is commonly dependent on individual signs, which limits the accuracy and timeliness of therapies, especially for asymptomatic patients in clinical management. Therefore, more effective early diagnosis and lesion-targeted treatments remain a pressing clinical need. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are porous crystalline materials formed by the coordination of inorganic metal ions and organic ligands. Due to their unique high specific surface area, structural flexibility, and functional versatility, MOFs are recognized as highly promising candidates for diagnostic and therapeutic applications in the field of VDs. In this review, the potential of MOFs to act as biosensors, contrast agents, artificial nanozymes, and multifunctional therapeutic agents in the diagnosis and treatment of VDs from the clinical perspective, highlighting the integration between clinical methods with MOFs is generalized. At the same time, multidisciplinary cooperation from chemistry, physics, biology, and medicine to promote the substantial commercial transformation of MOFs in tackling VDs is called for.

Abstract
Chronic skin wounds, especially infected ones, pose a significant clinical challenge due to their increasing incidence and poor outcomes. The deteriorative microenvironment in such wounds, characterized by reduced extracellular matrix, impaired angiogenesis, insufficient neurogenesis, and persistent bacterial infection, has prompted the exploration of novel therapeutic strategies. In this study, we developed an injectable multifunctional hydrogel (GEL/BG@Cu + Mg) incorporating Gelatin-Tannic acid/ N-hydroxysuccinimide functionalized polyethylene glycol and Bioactive glass doped with copper and magnesium ions to accelerate the healing of infected wounds. The GEL/BG@Cu + Mg hydrogel composite demonstrates good biocompatibility, degradability, and rapid formation of a protective barrier to stop bleeding. Synergistic bactericidal effects are achieved through the photothermal properties of BG@Cu + Mg and sustained copper ions release, with the latter further promoting angiogenesis. Furthermore, the hydrogel enhances neurogenesis by stimulating axons and Schwann cells in the wound bed through the beneficial effects of magnesium ions. Our results demonstrate that the designed novel multifunctional hydrogel holds tremendous promise for treating infected wounds and allowing regenerative neurogenesis at the wound site, which provides a viable alternative for further improving clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Recently, nanomaterials have attracted extensive attention in cancer-targeting therapy and as drug delivery vehicles owing to their unique surface and size properties. Multifunctional combinations of nanomaterials have become a research hotspot as researchers aim to provide a full understanding of their nanomaterial characteristics. In this study, metal-organic framework-capped gold nanorod hybrids were synthesized. Our research explored their ability to kill tumor cells by locally increasing the temperature via photothermal conclusion. The specific peroxidase-like activity endows the hybrids with the ability to disrupt the oxidative balance in vitro. Simultaneously, chemotherapeutic drugs are administered and delivered by loading and transportation for effective combinatorial cancer treatment, thereby enhancing the curative effect and reducing the unpredictable toxicity and side effects of large doses of chemotherapeutic drugs. These studies can improve combinatorial cancer therapy and enhance cancer treatment.

Abstract
To efficiently degrade organic pollutants, photocatalysts must be effective under both ultraviolet (UV) radiation and sunlight. We synthesized a series of new metal-organic frameworks by using mild hydrothermal conditions. These frameworks incorporate three distinct bipyridyl ligands: pyrazine (pyr), 4,4'-bipyridine (bpy), and 1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethane (bpe). The resulting compounds are denoted as [Cu(pyz)(H2O)2MF6], [Cu(bpy)2(H2O)2]·MF6, and [Cu(bpe)2(H2O)2]·MF6·H2O [M = Zr (1, 3, and 5) and Hf (2, 4, and 6)]. All six compounds exhibited a two-dimensional crystal structure comprising infinitely nonintersecting linear chains. Compound 3 achieved 100% degradation of methylene blue (MB) after 8 min under UV irradiation and 100 min under natural sunlight in the presence of H2O2 as the electron acceptor. For compound 5, 100% MB degradation was achieved after 120 min under sunlight and 10 min under UV light. Moreover, reactive radical tests revealed that the dominant species involved in photocatalytic degradation are hydroxyl (•OH), superoxide radicals (•O2-), and photogenerated holes (h+). The photodegradation process followed pseudo-first-order kinetics, with photodegradation rate constants of 0.362 min-1 (0.039 min-1) for 3 and 0.316 min-1 (0.033 min-1) for 5 under UV (sunlight) irradiation. The developed photocatalysts with excellent activity and good recyclability are promising green catalysts for degrading organic pollutants during environmental decontamination.

Abstract
Despite the great potential of anti-PD-L1 antibodies for immunotherapy, their low response rate due to an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment has hampered their application. To address this issue, we constructed a cell membrane-coated nanosystem (mB4S) to reverse an immunosuppressive microenvironment to an immuno-supportive one for strengthening the anti-tumor effect. In this system, Epirubicin (EPI) as an immunogenic cell death (ICD) inducer was coupled to a branched glycopolymer via hydrazone bonds and diABZI as a stimulator of interferon genes (STING) agonist was encapsulated into mB4S. After internalization of mB4S, EPI was acidic-responsively released to induce ICD, which was characterized by an increased level of calreticulin (CRT) exposure and enhanced ATP secretion. Meanwhile, diABZI effectively activated the STING pathway. Treatment with mB4S in combination with an anti-PD-L1 antibody elicited potent immune responses by increasing the ratio of matured dendritic cells (DCs) and CD8+ T cells, promoting cytokines secretion, up-regulating M1-like tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) and down-regulating immunosuppressive myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs). Therefore, this nanosystem for co-delivery of an ICD inducer and a STING agonist achieved promotion of DCs maturation and CD8+ T cells infiltration, creating an immuno-supportive microenvironment, thus potentiating the therapy effect of the anti-PD-L1 antibody in both 4T1 breast and CT26 colon tumor mice.

Abstract
Implant-associated infections and the increasing number of bone implants loosening and falling off after implantation have become urgent global challenges, hence the need for intelligent alternative solutions to combat implant loosening and falling off. The application of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) in biomedical and medical therapy has aroused great interest, especially because its elastic modulus close to bone provides an effective alternative to titanium implants, thereby preventing the possibility of bone implants loosening and falling off due to the mismatch of elastic modulus. In this Review, we provide a comprehensive overview of recent advances in surface modifications to prevent bone binding deficiency and bacterial infection after implantation of bone implants, starting with inorganics for surface modification, followed by organics that can effectively promote bone integration and antimicrobial action. In addition, surface modifications derived from cells and related products of biological activity have been proposed, and there is increasing evidence of clinical potential. Finally, the advantages and future challenges of surface strategies against medical associated poor osseointegration and infection are discussed, with promising prospects for developing novel osseointegration and antimicrobial PEEK materials.

Abstract
The world is fighting infectious diseases. Therefore, effective antimicrobials are required to prevent the spread of microbes and protect human health. Zinc oxide (ZnO) nano-materials are known for their antimicrobial activities. Because of their distinctive physical and chemical characteristics, they can be used in medical and environmental applications. ZnO-based composites are among the leading sources of antimicrobial research. They are effective at killing (microbicidal) and inhibiting the growth (microbiostatic) of numerous microorganisms, such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi. Although most studies have focused on the microbicidal features, there is a lack of reviews on their microbiostatic effects. This review provides a detailed overview of available reports on the microbiostatic activities of ZnO-based nano-materials against different microorganisms. Additionally, the factors that affect the efficacy of these materials, their time course, and a comparison of the available antimicrobials are highlighted in this review. The basic properties of ZnO, challenges of working with microorganisms, and working mechanisms of microbiostatic activities are also examined. This review underscores the importance of further research to better understand ZnO-based nano-materials for controlling microbial growth.

A biomimetic cuproptosis amplifier for targeted NIR-II fluorescence/photoacoustic imaging-guided synergistic NIR-II photothermal immunotherapy. Biomaterials 2024; 305:122455. [PMID: 38160626 DOI: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2023.122455] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2023] [Revised: 11/28/2023] [Accepted: 12/26/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024]
Abstract
The therapeutic efficacy of cuproptosis combined with phototheranostics is still hindered by easy copper efflux, nonspecific accumulation and limited light penetration depth. Here, a high-performance NIR-II semiconductor polymer was first synthesized through dual-donor engineering. Then a biomimetic cuproptosis amplifier (PCD@CM) was prepared by Cu(II)-mediated coordinative self-assembly of NIR-II ultrasmall polymer dots and the chemotherapeutic drug DOX, followed by camouflaging of tumor cell membranes. After homologous targeting delivery to tumor cells, overexpressed GSH in the tumor microenvironment (TME) triggers the disassembly of the amplifier and the release of therapeutic components through the reduction of Cu(II) to Cu(I), which enable NIR-II fluorescence/photoacoustic imaging-guided NIR-II photothermal therapy (PTT) and chemotherapy. The released Cu(I) induces the aggregation of lipoylated mitochondrial proteins accompanied by the loss of iron-sulfur proteins, leading to severe proteotoxic stress and eventually cuproptosis. NIR-II PTT and GSH depletion render tumor cells more sensitive to cuproptosis. The amplified cuproptosis sensitization provokes significant immune surveillance, triggering the immunogenic cell death (ICD) to promote cytotoxic T lymphocyte infiltration together with aPD-L1-mediated immune checkpoint blockade. This work proposes a new strategy to develop cuproptosis sensitization systems enhanced by NIR-II phototheranostics with homologous targeting and anti-tumor immune response capabilities.

Abstract
Nanozyme catalytic therapy for cancer treatments has become one of the heated topics, and the therapeutic efficacy is highly correlated with their catalytic efficiency. In this work, three copper-doped CeO2 supports with various structures as well as crystal facets are developed to realize dual enzyme-mimic catalytic activities, that is superoxide dismutase (SOD) to reduce superoxide radicals to H2 O2 and peroxidase (POD) to transform H2 O2 to ∙OH. The wire-shaped CeO2 /Cu-W has the richest surface oxygen vacancies, and a low level of oxygen vacancy (Vo) formation energy, which allows for the elimination of intracellular reactive oxygen spieces (ROS) and continuous transformation to ∙OH with cascade reaction. Moreover, the wire-shaped CeO2 /Cu-W displays the highest toxic ∙OH production capacity in an acidic intracellular environment, inducing breast cancer cell death and pro-apoptotic autophagy. Therefore, wire-shaped CeO2 /Cu nanoparticles as an artificial enzyme system can have great potential in the intervention of intracellular ROS in cancer cells, achieving efficacious nanocatalytic therapy.

Abstract
Rational design of polymeric conjugates could greatly potentiate the combination therapy of solid tumors. In this study, we designed and prepared two polymeric conjugates (HT-DTX and PEG-YC-1), whereas the drugs were attached to the PEG via a linker sensitive to cathepsin B, over-expressed in TNBC. Stable nanostructures were formed by these two polymer prodrug conjugates co-assembly (PPCC). The stimuli-responsiveness of PPCC was confirmed, and the size shrinkage under tumor microenvironment would facilitate the penetration of PPCC into tumor tissue. In vitro experiments revealed the molecular mechanism for the synergistic effect of the combination of DTX and YC-1. Moreover, the systemic side effects were significantly diminished since the biodistribution of PPCC was improved after i.v. administration in vivo. In this context, the co-assembled nano-structural approach could be employed for delivering therapeutic drugs with different mechanisms of action to exert a synergistic anti-tumor effect against solid tumors, including triple-negative breast cancer.

Abstract
An ideal chronic wound dressing needs to have some properties, such as antibacterial, antioxidant, regulating macrophage polarization and promoting angiogenesis. This work presents a microneedle patch fabricated from oxidized konjac glucomannan (OKGM-MNs), in which Copper-gallate metal-organic framework (CuGA-MOF) is encapsulated for wound healing (denoted as CuGA-MOF@OKGM-MNs). CuGA-MOF is composed of Cu2+ and gallic acid (GA), which are released through microneedles in the deep layer of the dermis. The released Cu2+ is able to act as an antibacterial agent and promote angiogenesis, while GA as a reactive oxygen species scavenger displays antioxidant activity. More attractively, the material OKGM used to prepare the microneedle patch is not only a drug carrier but also plays a role in promoting macrophage polarization M2 phenotype. In vitro experiments showed that CuGA-MOF@OKGM-MNs had good antibacterial and antioxidant properties. The therapeutic effect on wound healing has been confirmed in full-thickness skin wounds of diabetes mice models, which showed that the wound could be completely healed within 21 days under the treatment of CuGA-MOF@OKGM-MNs, and the healing effect was better than other groups. These indicated that the proposed CuGA-MOF@OKGM-MNs could be applicable in the treatment of clinical wound healing.

Abstract
In this work, a dual-signal output sensor was developed for the ratiometrically electrochemical and colorimetric detection of glyphosate (GLYP) based on the duplex nature of 2D Cu-TCPP(Fe) nanosheets (2D Cu-TCPP(Fe) NSs). Cu active center sites in 2D Cu-TCPP(Fe) NSs could transform into CuCl for signal amplification in the presence of chloride ions (Cl-), which dropped dramatically upon GLPY addition due to the strong interaction between GLYP and cuprous ion triggering the competitive reaction with the conversion of CuCl into Cu-GLYP complex. Meanwhile, the constant current signals of Fe2+/3+ in the iron-porphyrin structure of Cu-TCPP(Fe) served as an inner reference, resulting in a ratiometrically electrochemical GLYP sensor. Moreover, 2D Cu-TCPP(Fe) NSs with intrinsic peroxidase-like activity was employed for the colorimetric determination of GLYP based on the specific inhibitory effect of GLYP on the peroxidase activity of 2D Cu-TCPP(Fe) nanozyme. GLYP concentrations can be quantified in the range from 1.0 × 10-10 M to 1.0 × 10-6 M and 1.0 × 10-9 M to 1.0 × 10-7 M, with detection limits of 3.9 × 10-12 M and 1.89 × 10-11 M for ratiometrically electrochemical method and colorimetric assay, respectively. Such a dual-mode sensor with remarkable selectivity, reproducibility, and stability was finally applied for GLYP detection in real samples and reliable outcomes were achieved.

In this study, by using microwave irradiation; penicillin, which is a known antibiotic; and copper metal-organic frameworks (Cu-MOFs), a new penicillinoate@copper metal-organic framework (penicillinoate@Cu-MOF) was synthesized. The structure and characterization of the newly synthesized compound were determined using FT-IR spectrums, EDAX analysis, elemental analysis, XRD patterns, SEM images, nitrogen adsorption/desorption curves, and TGA curve. Then, its antimicrobial effects were evaluated on numerous Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains and were compared with those of penicillin and gentamicin. In continuation of the biological activities, antioxidant tests were performed on the compounds using the DPPH method. For biological activities, the synthesized penicillinoate@Cu-MOF is much more effective than penicillin and Cu-MOF. The loading of penicillin on the nanostructure and the presence of copper in the final composition can be attributed to the high antibiotic properties of the synthesized composition.

Abstract
Controlled delivery of target molecules is required in many medical and chemical applications. For such purposes, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), which possess desirable features such as high porosity, large surface area, and adjustable functionalities, hold great potential as drug carriers. Herein, Quercetin (QU), as an anticancer drug, was loaded on Cu2 (BDC)2 (DABCO) and Cu2 (F4 BDC)2 )DABCO) MOFs (BDC=1,4-benzenedicarboxylate and DABCO=1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane). As these Cu-MOFs have a high surface area, an appropriate pore size, and biocompatible ingredients, they can be utilized to deliver QU. The loading efficiency of QU in these MOFs was 49.5 % and 41.3 %, respectively. The drug-loaded compounds displayed sustained drug release over 15 days, remarkably high drug loading capacities and pH-controlled release behavior. The prepared nanostructures were characterized by different characterization technics including FT-IR, PXRD, ZP, TEM, FE-SEM, UV-vis, and BET. In addition, MTT assays were carried out on the HEK-293 and HeLa cell lines to investigate cytotoxicity. Cellular apoptosis analysis was performed to investigate the cell death mechanisms. Grand Canonical Monte Carlo simulations were conducted to analyze the interactions between MOFs and QU. Moreover, the stability of MOFs was also investigated during and after the drug release process. Ultimately, kinetic models of drug release were evaluated.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with peroxidase (POD)-like activity have great potential for combating drug-resistant bacterial infections. However, the use of POD-like activities is severely limited by low oxygen levels and high levels of glutathione (GSH) within the microenvironment of bacterial infection. Herein, G-quadruplex/hemin DNAzyme-aptamer probes and tannic acid-chelated Au nanoparticle (Au-TA)-decorated Cu-based MOF nanosheets (termed GATC) with triple-enzyme activities were developed for visual detection and efficient antibacterial therapy. First, the monometallic MOFs (Cu-ZIF) showed the best catalytic and loading capacity performance compared with the bimetallic MOFs (CoCu-ZIF and ZnCu-ZIF). Then, Cu-MOFs, Au-TA, and DNAzyme improve the POD-like activity to generate more hydroxyl radicals (•OH) to kill bacteria. GATC can bind to bacteria through aptamer recognition, increasing the bacterial surface contact area for efficient antibacterial activity. GATC can decompose H2O2 into O2 to alleviate hypoxia and improve the microenvironment due to its catalase (CAT)-like activity. In addition, GATC exhibited GSH peroxidase-like activity, which can avoid the loss of •OH and result in bacterial death more easily. Compared with previous studies, GATC exhibited extraordinary bactericidal ability at an extremely low dosage of 3 μg/mL against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Notably, the GATC-catalyzed chromogenic reaction could accurately monitor the MRSA infection treatment process. Overall, this work could establish a therapeutic platform for the monitoring and management of bacteria-infected wounds.

Abstract
Wound healing is a dynamic and complex restorative process, and traditional dressings reduce their therapeutic effectiveness due to the accumulation of drugs in the cuticle. As a novel drug delivery system, microneedles (MNs) can overcome the defect and deliver drugs to the deeper layers of the skin. As the core of the microneedle system, loaded drugs exert a significant influence on the therapeutic efficacy of MNs. Metallic elements and herbal compounds have been widely used in wound treatment for their ability to accelerate the healing process. Metallic elements primarily serve as antimicrobial agents and facilitate the enhancement of cell proliferation. Whereas various herbal compounds act on different targets in the inflammatory, proliferative, and remodeling phases of wound healing. The interaction between the two drugs forms nanoparticles (NPs) and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), reducing the toxicity of the metallic elements and increasing the therapeutic effect. This article summarizes recent trends in the development of MNs made of metallic elements and herbal compounds for wound healing, describes their advantages in wound treatment, and provides a reference for the development of future MNs.

Abstract
Cuproptosis, a kind of newly recognized cell death modality, shows enormous prospect in cancer treatment. The inducer of cuproptosis has more advantages in tumor therapy, especially that can trigger cuproptosis and chemodynamic therapy (CDT) simultaneously. However, cuproptosis is restricted to the deficiency of intracellular copper ions and the nonspecific delivery of copper-based ionophores. Therefore, high level delivery, responsive release, and utilizing synergistic-function of inducer become the key on cuproptosis-based oncotherapy. In this work, a cascade nanosystem is constructed for enhanced cuproptosis and CDT. In the weak acidic environment of tumor cells, DNA, zinc ions, and Cu+ can release from the nanosystem. Since Cu+ having superior performance in mediating both Fenton-like reaction and cuproptosis, the released Cu+ induces cuproptosis and CDT efficiently, accompanied by Cu2+ generation. Then Cu2+ can be converted into Cu+ partially by glutathione (GSH) to from a Cu+ supply loop and ensure the synergistic action. Meanwhile, the consumption of GSH also contributes to cuproptosis and CDT in return. Finally, DNA and Zn2+ form DNAzyme to shear catalase-related RNA, resulting in the accumulation of hydrogen peroxide and further enhancing combination therapy. These results provide a promising nanotherapeutic platform and may inspire the design for potential cancer treatment based on cuproptosis.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, carbonyl, chlorine, bromine, and iodine species (RXS, where X = O, N, S, C, Cl, Br, and I) have important roles in various normal physiological processes and act as essential regulators of cell metabolism; their inherent biological activities govern cell signaling, immune balance, and tissue homeostasis. However, an imbalance between RXS production and consumption will induce the occurrence and development of various diseases. Due to the considerable progress of nanomedicine, a variety of nanosystems that can regulate RXS has been rationally designed and engineered for restoring RXS balance to halt the pathological processes of different diseases. The invention of radical-regulating nanomaterials creates the possibility of intriguing projects for disease treatment and promotes advances in nanomedicine. In this comprehensive review, we summarize, discuss, and highlight very-recent advances in RXS-based nanomedicine for versatile disease treatments. This review particularly focuses on the types and pathological effects of these reactive species and explores the biological effects of RXS-based nanomaterials, accompanied by a discussion and the outlook of the challenges faced and future clinical translations of RXS nanomedicines.

Abstract
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection is a pressing clinical issue that impedes wound healing. Pro-inflammatory M1 macrophages is required to clear bacteria and recruit various cell types during the initial phase of wound healing, but timing of this process is crucial. Herein, a microenvironment-responsive nanofibrous dressing capable of timely macrophage phenotype transition in vivo is constructed by coating copper ions (Cu2+)-polydopamine (PDA) networks on poly (ε-caprolactone) fiber (PCL-fiber) membrane. During the initial post-implantation period, the nanofibrous dressing show pH-sensitive Cu2+ release in the acidic infection microenvironment. The release Cu2+ have a direct killing effect on MRSA, and promote the proinflammatory M1 phenotype of macrophages to enhance the antibacterial macrophage response. Later, PDA to become a reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenger when in microenvironments with elevated ROS levels, which conferred the dressing with an immunomodulatory activity that convert M1 macrophages into M2 macrophages. In vivo examination in an MRSA infected full-thickness skin wounds of rat model demonstrates that this dressing significantly facilitated infection eradication and wound healing through modulating local inflammatory phenotype. Overall, this study offers a simple and effective approach for timely manipulation of inflammation progression to promote infected wound healing.

Abstract
Innovative active and pH-colorimetric composite films were fabricated from gelatin/poly(vinyl alcohol) (Gel/PVA) integrated with copper-based metal-organic frameworks (Cu-MOFs) and red cabbage anthocyanin (RCA). The incorporation of Cu-MOFs improved the tensile strength, water resistance, and UV shielding properties of the developed composite films. The addition of anthocyanins and 3 wt% Cu-MOFs endowed the polymer matrix with excellent antioxidant (100 % against ABTS and DPPH radicals) and antibacterial (against Gram-positive and Gram-negative foodborne pathogenic bacteria) functions. The fabricated composite films exhibited significant color change at alkaline conditions of pH 7-12 and a marked color change upon exposure to ammonia. The designed indicator films used for shrimp freshness tracking and a visual color change from pink (for fresh shrimp) to green (for spoiled shrimp) was observed during storage at 28 °C for 24 h. The potential applications of the engineered composite films were studied by shrimp packaging, and the quality parameters of packaged samples were monitored during storage. The synergistic effects of adding anthocyanins and MOF nanostructures works for better product freshness preservation and responds well to shrimp spoilage level, introducing novel active and intelligent packaging options for practical smart packaging applications.

Abstract
Hierarchically porous metal-organic frameworks (HP-MOFs) have attracted a lot of attention in recent years because their hierarchical pores have critical importance in strengthening their performance, including guest diffusion kinetics, catalytic activity, and selectivity, especially with reference to large molecules. However, the preparation method for simple, controllable, and stable HP-MOFs at a micro-/meso-/macroscopic scale is still lacking. Herein, we showed several forms of HKUST-1 (HKUST = Hong Kong University of Science and Technology) by simply changing the copper source and solvent type, including original micron HKUST-1 (O-HKUST-1), half-foam HKUST-1 (HF-HKUST-1), and fully foam HKUST-1 (F-HKUST-1). Compared to O-HKUST-1, HF-HKUST-1 and F-HKUST-1 possessed an apparent hierarchically porous structure due to the high fusion of HKUST-1 nanocrystals. Especially in F-HKUST-1, all of the HKUST-1 nanocrystals were tightly integrated into each other, which formed a holistic hollow foam structure. Hence, F-HKUST-1 exhibited the highest adsorption capacity toward large molecules, including proteases, phosphotungstic acid, and organic dyes. Meanwhile, F-HKUST-1 presented the highest photocatalytic degradation capability for rhodamine B. Furthermore, F-HKUST-1, loaded with phosphotungstic acid (F-HKUST-1@PTA), which was used as a catalyst, indicated a catalytic capacity comparable to that of a homogeneous catalyst (pure phosphotungstic acid).

Abstract
In recent years, the presence of pathogens in the environment has become an issue of widespread concern in society. Thus, new research lines have been developed regarding the removal of pathogens and persistent pollutants in water. In this research, the efficacy of nanostructure copper-organic framework, HKUST-1, has been evaluated for its ability to eliminate Escherichia coli and generate sulphate radicals as catalyst for the treatment of effluents with a high microbiological load via peroxymonosulphate (PMS) activation. The disinfection process has been optimized, achieving complete elimination of Escherichia coli growth after 30 min of testing using a concentration of 60.5 mg/L HKUST-1 and 0.1 mM of PMS. To overcome the operational limitations of this system and facilitate its handling and reutilization in a flow disinfection process, HKUST-1 has been efficiently encapsulated on polyacrylonitrile as a novel development that could be scaled up to achieve continuous treatment.

[PMID: 36934606 DOI: 10.1016/j.bios.2023.115226] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2023] [Revised: 03/01/2023] [Accepted: 03/10/2023] [Indexed: 03/13/2023]
Abstract
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) can act as molecular sponges of microRNA (miRNA) to form circRNA-miRNA axis, which regulates the expressions of downstream proteins. Although the mechanism has been widely reported in various bioprocesses, there is still a lack of reliable and facile way to intuitively monitor and locate the interaction between circRNA and miRNA inside living cells. In this study, multiple DNA probes are designed and loaded onto two-dimensional Cu metal-organic framework (2D Cu-MOF) nanosheets for one-step analysis of circRNA-miRNA axis. The nanosheets serve as not only powerful fluorescence quenchers but also excellent nanocarriers of abundant DNA probes for further assembly. The Probes@Cu-MOF complex can be applied to track the circRNA-miRNA axis in living cells with high sensitivity and co-localization analysis. This platform combines the transmembrane advantage of nanosheets and the signal amplification ability of localized DNA cascade assembly, so it holds great potential for understanding the biological functions of circRNA-miRNAs in cancer pathogenesis and for therapeutic applications.

Syphilis mimetic nanoparticles for cuproptosis-based synergistic cancer therapy via reprogramming copper metabolism. Int J Pharm 2023; 640:123025.

Abstract
Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is one of the most devastating type of human lung cancer and has a high propensity to metastasize into the brain. Cuproptosis recently has been defined as a copper dependent cell death, offers a new lens to develop the novel copper-based nanostructure inducing cuproptosis for suppressing tumor growth and metastasis. Here, we report a syphilis mimetic TP0751-peptide decorated stem cell membrane-coated copper-based metal organic framework (Cu-MOF) nanodelivery system for SCLC brain metastasis. The Cu-MOF is employed as nanocarrier to support siRNA with high loading efficiency, and its pH sensitivity facilitates endosomal disruption upon cellular uptake. Furthermore, the cell membrane coating Cu-MOF presents a good biocompatibility, high BBB transcytosis, and specific uptake by tumor cells within the brain. In vitro and in vivo trials have shown that TP-M-Cu-MOF/siATP7a exhibited high silencing efficiency against target gene, specifically blocked copper trafficking, increased copper intake, triggered cuproptosis, and improved therapeutic efficacy in SCLC brain metastasis tumor-bearing mice. Overall, the biomimetic nanodelivery platform presented here further offers a promising way of orchestrating gene therapy to target copper-dependent signalling for reprogramming copper metabolism and cuproptosis-based synergistic therapy in mice bearing brain metastases.

Abstract
This manuscript describes the synthesis and characterization of a hybrid polymer/HKUST-1 composite for oral drug delivery. A green, one-pot approach was employed to synthesize the modified metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) composite using alkali lignin as a novel pH-responsive biopolymer carrier for the simulated oral delivery system. Several analytical techniques, including Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to analyze the chemical and crystalline structure of HKUST-1 and L/HKUST-1 composite. The drug loading capacity and drug-controlled release behavior of HKUST-1 and L/HKUST-1 were examined using ibuprofen (IBU) as an oral drug model. L/HKUST-1 composite demonstrated a pH-controlled drug release behavior by advancing the drug stability at low pHs such as the gastric medium and controlling drug release in the pH range of 6.8-7.4, similar to intestinal pH. The results suggest that the L/HKUST-1 composite is a promising candidate for oral medication delivery.

Abstract
The simulation of neurons receiving stimulation and transmitting signals by proton conduction has great potential applications in electrochemistry and biology. In this work, copper tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin (Cu-TCPP), which is a proton conductive metal organic framework (MOF) with photothermal response, is adopted as the structural framework, with the in situ co-incorporation of polystyrene sulfonate (PSS) and sulfonated spiropyran (SSP) to prepare the composite membranes. The resultant PSS-SSP@Cu-TCPP thin-film membranes were used as the logic gates i.e., NO gate, NOR gate and NAND gate because of the photothermal effect of Cu-TCPP MOFs and the photoinduced conformational changes of SSP. This membrane exhibits the high proton conductivity of 1.37 × 10-4 S cm-1. Under the conditions of 55 °C and 95% relative humidity (RH), using 405 nm laser irradiation with 400 mW cm-2 and 520 nm laser irradiation with 200 mW cm-2 as inputs, the device can be adjusted between various steady states, and the value of the conductivity is regarded as the output with different thresholds in different logic gates. Before and after laser irradiation, the electrical conductivity changes dramatically, and the ON/OFF switching ratio reached 1068. The application of three logic gates is realized by constructing circuits with LED lights. Depending on the convenience of light and the easy measurement of conductivity, this kind of device with light source as input and electrical signal as output provides the possibility to realize the remote control of chemical sensors and complex logic gates devices.

Abstract
Due to its built-up chemoresistance after prolonged usage, the demand for replacing platinum in metal-based drugs (MBD) is rising. The first MBD approved by the FDA for cancer therapy was cisplatin in 1978. Even after nearly four and a half decades of trials, there has been no significant improvement in osteosarcoma (OS) therapy. In fact, many MBD have been developed, but the chemoresistance problem raised by platinum remains unresolved. This motivates us to elucidate the possibilities of the copper and zinc (CuZn) combination to replace platinum in MBD. Thus, the anti-chemoresistance properties of CuZn and their physiological functions for OS therapy are highlighted. Herein, we summarise their chelators, main organic solvents, and ligand functions in their structures that are involved in anti-chemoresistance properties. Through this review, it is rational to discuss their ligands' roles as biosensors in drug delivery systems. Hereafter, an in-depth understanding of their redox and photoactive function relationships is provided. The disadvantage is that the other functions of biosensors cannot be elaborated on here. As a result, this review is being developed, which is expected to intensify OS drugs with higher cure rates. Nonetheless, this advancement intends to solve the major chemoresistance obstacle towards clinical efficacy.

Abstract
Cuproptosis is a new form of programmed cell death and exhibits enormous potential in cancer treatment. However, reducing the undesirable Cu ion release in normal tissue and maximizing the copper-induced therapeutic effect in cancer sites are two main challenges. In this study, we constructed a photothermally triggered nanoplatform (Au@MSN-Cu/PEG/DSF) to realize on-demand delivery for synergistic therapy. The released disulfiram (DSF) chelated with Cu2+ in situ to generate highly cytotoxic bis(diethyldithiocarbamate)copper (CuET), causing cell apoptosis, and the formed Cu+ species promoted toxic mitochondrial protein aggregation, leading to cell cuproptosis. Synergistic with photothermal therapy, Au@MSN-Cu/PEG/DSF could effectively kill tumor cells and inhibit tumor growth (inhibition rate up to 80.1 %). These results provide a promising perspective for potential cancer treatment based on cuproptosis, and may also inspire the design of advanced nano-therapeutic platforms.

Abstract
Over the past years, metal-organic frameworks (MOF) have been directly used as electrodes or as a precursor for MOF-derived materials in energy storage and conversion systems. In the wide range of existing MOF derivatives, MOF-derived layered double hydroxides (LDHs) are determined to be promising materials due to their unique structure and features. However, MOF-derived LDHs (MDL) materials can suffer from insufficient intrinsic conductivity and agglomeration during formation. Various techniques and approaches were designed and applied to tackle these problems, such as using ternary LDHs, ion-doping, sulphurization, phosphorylation, selenization, direct growth, and conductive substrates. All the mentioned enhancement techniques aim to create the ideal electrode materials with maximum performance. In this review, we gathered and discussed the most recent progressive advances, different synthesis methodologies, unsolved challenges, applications, and electrochemical and electrocatalytic performance of MDL materials. We hope this work will be a reliable source for future progress and synthesis of these materials.

Abstract
Fighting against bacterial infection and accelerating wound healing remain important and challenging in infected wound care. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have received much attention for their optimized and enhanced catalytic performance in different dimensions of these challenges. The size and morphology of nanomaterials are important in their physiochemical properties and thereby their biological functions. Enzyme-mimicking catalysts, based on MOFs of different dimensions, display varying degrees of peroxidase (POD)-like activity toward hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) decomposition into toxic hydroxyl radicals (•OH) for bacterial inhibition and accelerating wound healing. In this study, we investigated the two most studied representatives of copper-based MOFs (Cu-MOFs), three-dimensional (3D) HKUST-1 and two-dimensional (2D) Cu-TCPP, for antibacterial therapy. HKUST-1, with a uniform and octahedral 3D structure, showed higher POD-like activity, resulting in H2O2 decomposition for •OH generation rather than Cu-TCPP. Because of the efficient generation of toxic •OH, both Gram-negative Escherichia coli and Gram-positive methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus could be eliminated under a lower concentration of H2O2. Animal experiments indicated that the as-prepared HKUST-1 effectively accelerated wound healing with good biocompatibility. These results reveal the multivariate dimensions of Cu-MOFs with high POD-like activity, providing good potential for further stimulation of specific bacterial binding therapies in the future.

Abstract
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) plays a key role in signal transduction pathways associated with cell proliferation, growth, and survival. Its overexpression and aberrant activation in malignancy correlate with poor prognosis and short survival. Targeting inhibition of EGFR by small-molecular tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) is emerging as an important treatment model besides of chemotherapy, greatly reshaping the landscape of cancer therapy. However, they are still challenged by the off-targeted toxicity, relatively limited cancer types, and drug resistance after long-term therapy. In this review, we summarize the recent progress of oral, pulmonary, and injectable drug delivery systems for enhanced and targeting TKI delivery to tumors and reduced side effects. Importantly, EGFR-TKI-based combination therapies not only greatly broaden the applicable cancer types of EGFR-TKI but also significantly improve the anticancer effect. The mechanisms of TKI resistance are summarized, and current strategies to overcome TKI resistance as well as the application of TKI in reversing chemotherapy resistance are discussed. Finally, we provide a perspective on the future research of EGFR-TKI-based cancer therapy.

Abstract
Bacteria-infected wound healing is a complex and chronic process that poses a great threat to human health. A thermo-sensitive hydrogel that undergoes a sol-gel transition at body temperature is an attractive wound dressing for healing acceleration and infection prevention. In this paper, we present a thermo-sensitive and reactive oxygen species (ROS)-scavenging hydrogel based on polydopamine modified poly(ε-caprolactone-co-glycolide)-b-poly(ethylene glycol)-b-poly(ε-caprolactone-co-glycolide) (PDA/P2) triblock copolymer. The PDA/P2 solution at a concentration of 30 wt% could form a gel at 34-38 °C. The ROS-scavenging ability of PDA/P2 was demonstrated by DPPH and ABTS assays and intracellular ROS downregulation in RAW264.7 cells. Furthermore, silver nanoparticles were encapsulated in the hydrogel (PDA/P2-4@Ag gel) to provide antibacterial activity against E. coli and S. aureus. An in vivo S. aureus-infected rat model demonstrated that the PDA/P2-4@Ag hydrogel dressing could promote wound healing via inhibiting bacterial growth, alleviating the inflammatory response, and inducing angiogenesis and collagen deposition. This study provides a new strategy to prepare temperature-sensitive hydrogel-based multifunctional wound dressings.

Abstract
Developing degradable filter membranes that inhibit bacterial infection for preventing particle matter and infectious disease has been a research hotspot. Here, the fiber membranes of polylactic acid (PLA)/HKUST-1 with porous structure through the entire fiber matrix were prepared by electrospinning method. Due to the HKUST-1 incorporation and the presence of pore through fiber, the hydrophobicity of prepared membranes had been improved. The PLA/HKUST-1 membranes exhibited the good antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus , and the antibacterial rate for S. aureus reached 99.99%. The filtration performance of PLA/HKUST-1 membranes was better than that of the melt-blown fabric although their thickness was only about one-third of the thickness of the currently commercial polypropylene melt-blown fabric.

Abstract
Introduction The high concentration of glutathione (GSH) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) levels within the tumor microenvironment (TME) are the major obstacle to induce the unsatisfactory anticancer treatment efficiency. The synergistic cancer therapy strategies of the combination the GSH depletion enhanced chemodynamic therapy (CDT) with photothermal therapy (PTT) have been proved to be the promising method to significantly improve the therapeutic efficacy. Methods The copperphosphotungstate was incorporated into polyanilines to design copperphosphotungstate doped polyaniline nanorods (CuPW@PANI Nanorods) via chemical oxidant polymerization of aniline. The low long-term toxicity and biocompatibility were evaluated. Both in vitro and in vivo experiments were carried out to confirm the GSH depletion enhanced CDT/NIR-II PTT synergistic therapy. Results CuPW@PANI Nanorods feature biosafety and biocompatibility, strong NIR-II absorbance, and high photothermal-conversion efficiency (45.14%) in NIR-II bio-window, making them highly applicable for photoacoustic imaging and NIR-II PTT. Moreover, CuPW@PANI Nanorods could consume endogenous GSH to disrupt redox homeostasis and perform a Fenton-like reaction with H2O2 to produce cytotoxic •OH for the enhanced CDT. Furthermore, NIR-II photothermal-induced local hyperthermia accelerates •OH generation to enhance CDT, which realizes high therapeutic efficacy in vivo. Conclusion This study provides a proof of concept of GSH-depletion augmented chemodynamic/NIR-II photothermal therapy.

Abstract
A novel two-dimensional copper(II) framework (LDU-1), formulated as {[Cu2(L)2·2NMP}n (H2L = flavone-6,2'-dicarboxylic acid, NMP = N-Methyl pyrrolidone), has been constructed under solvothermal conditions and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy (IR), thermogravimetric analysis and powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD). In the crystal structure, the Cu(II) shows hex-coordinated with the classical Cu paddle-wheel coordination geometry, and the flavonoid ligand coordinates with the Cu(II) ion in a bidentate bridging mode. Of particular interest of LDU-1 is the presence of anti-tumor activity against three human cancer cell lines including lung adenocarcinoma(A549), Michigan cancer foundation-7 (MCF-7), erythroleukemia (K562) and murine melanoma B16F10, indicating synergistic enhancement effects between metal ions and organic linkers. A cell cycle assay indicates that LDU-1 induces cells to arrest at S phase obviously at a lower concentration.

Abstract
Bacterial infections pose a serious threat to people's health. Efforts are being made to develop antibacterial agents that can inhibit bacterial growth, prevent biofilm formation, and kill bacteria. In recent years, materials based on metal organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted significant attention for various antibacterial applications due to their high specific surface area, high enzyme-like activity, and continuous release of metal ions. This paper reviews the recent progress of MOFs as antibacterial agents, focusing on preparation methods, fundamental antibacterial mechanisms, and strategies to enhance their antibacterial effects. Finally, several prospects related to MOFs for antibacterial application are proposed, aiming to provide possible research directions in this field.

Abstract
This paper is to discuss the potential of using CuZn in an electrical biosensor drug carrier for drug delivery systems. CuZn is the main semiconductor ingredient that has great promise as an electrochemical detector to trigger releases of active pharmaceutical ingredients (API). This CuZn biosensor is produced with a green metal of frameworks, which is an anion node in conductive polymers linked by bioactive ligands using metal-polymerisation technology. The studies of Cu, Zn, and their oxides are highlighted by their electrochemical performance as electrical biosensors to electrically trigger API. The three main problems, which are glucose oxidisation, binding affinity, and toxicity, are highlighted, and their solutions are given. Moreover, their biocompatibilities, therapeutic efficacies, and drug delivery efficiencies are discussed with details given. Our three previous investigations of CuZn found results similar to those of other authors' in terms of multiphases, polymerisation, and structure. This affirms that our research is on the right track, especially that related to green synthesis using plant extract, CuZn as a nanochip electric biosensor, and bioactive ligands to bind API, which are limited to the innermost circle of the non-enzymatic glucose sensor category.

Copper-olsalazine metal-organic frameworks as a nanocatalyst and epigenetic modulator for efficient inhibition of colorectal cancer growth and metastasis. Acta Biomater 2022; 152:495-506.

Abstract
Despite the extensive explorations of nanoscale metal-organic frameworks (nanoMOFs) in drug delivery, the intrinsic bioactivity of nanoMOFs, such as anticancer activity, is severely underestimated owing to the overlooked integration of the hierarchical components including nanosized MOFs and molecular-level organic ligands and metal-organic complexes. Herein, we propose a de novo design of multifunctional bioactive nanoMOFs ranging from molecular to nanoscale level, and demonstrate this proof-of-concept by a copper-olsalazine (Olsa, a clinically approved drug for inflammatory bowel disease, here as a bioactive linker and DNA hypomethylating agent) nanoMOF displaying a multifaceted anticancer mechanism: (1) Cu-Olsa nanoMOF-mediated redox dyshomeostasis for enhanced catalytic tumor therapy, (2) targeting downregulation of cyclooxygenase-2 by the organic complex of Cu2+ and Olsa, and (3) Olsa-mediated epigenetic regulation. Cu-Olsa nanoMOF displayed an enzyme-like catalytic activity to generate cancericidal species ·OH and 1O2 from rich H2O2 in tumors, improved the expression of tumor suppressors TIMP3 and AXIN2 by epigenetic modulation, and fulfilled selective inhibition of colorectal cancer cells over normal cells. The hyaluronic acid-modified nanoMOF further verified the efficient suppression of CT26 colorectal tumor growth and metastasis in murine models. Overall, these results suggest that Olsa-based MOF presents a platform of epigenetic therapy-synergized nanomedicine for efficient cancer treatment and provides a powerful strategy for the design of intrinsically bioactive nanoMOFs. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with intrinsic bioactivities such as anticancer and antibacterial activity are of great interest. Herein, we reported a bioactive copper-olsalazine (Cu-Olsa) nanoMOF as a nanodrug for colorectal cancer treatment. This nanoMOF per se displayed enzyme-like catalytic activity to generate cancericidal species ·OH and 1O2 from rich H2O2 in tumors for nanocatalytic tumor therapy. Upon dissociation into small molecular copper-organic complex and olsalazine in cancer cells, COX-2 inhibition and epigenetic modulation were fulfilled for selective inhibition of colorectal cancer growth and metastasis.

Abstract
With the development of cross-fertilisation in various disciplines, flexible wearable sensing technologies have emerged, bringing together many disciplines, such as biomedicine, materials science, control science, and communication technology. Over the past few years, the development of multiple types of flexible wearable devices that are widely used for the detection of human physiological signals has proven that flexible wearable devices have strong biocompatibility and a great potential for further development. These include electronic skin patches, soft robots, bio-batteries, and personalised medical devices. In this review, we present an updated overview of emerging flexible wearable sensor devices for biomedical applications and a comprehensive summary of the research progress and potential of flexible sensors. First, we describe the selection and fabrication of flexible materials and their excellent electrochemical properties. We evaluate the mechanisms by which these sensor devices work, and then we categorise and compare the unique advantages of a variety of sensor devices from the perspective of in vitro and in vivo sensing, as well as some exciting applications in the human body. Finally, we summarise the opportunities and challenges in the field of flexible wearable devices.

Abstract
Platinum-based chemotherapy is widely used to treat various cancers. However, exogenous platinum is likely to cause severe side effects and drug resistance induced by upregulated glutathione (GSH) in cancer cells poses a threat to the management of cancer progression and recurrence. Anticancer copper-organic complexes are excellent candidates to substitute platinum-based chemotherapeutics, exhibiting lower systemic toxicity and even overcoming platinum-based chemotherapy resistance. Here, we report the GSH-resistance of copper(II) bis(diethyldithiocarbamate) (CuET) and its reversal of cisplatin resistance in non-small-cell lung cancer via cuproptosis. Electrochemistry and UV-vis spectroscopy studies demonstrate that CuET possesses a lower reduction potential and the reaction inertness with GSH. Importantly, CuET overcomes the drug resistance of A549/DDP cells and the anticancer effect is hardly affected by intracellular GSH levels. To improve the solubility and bioavailability, bovine serum albumin-stabilized CuET nanoparticles (NPs) are prepared and they have a high drug loading content of 27.5% and excellent physiological stability. In vitro studies manifest that CuET NPs augment the distributions in the cytosol and cytoskeleton, inducing cell death via cuproptosis in A549/DDP cells, which is distinctly different from the apoptosis pattern induced by cisplatin. In vivo antitumor evaluation shows that the nanomedicine has superior biosafety and potent antitumor activity in a cisplatin-resistant tumor model. Our study suggests that copper-organic complex-based nanosystems could be a powerful toolbox to tackle the platinum-based drug resistance and systemic toxicity concerns.

Abstract
Sensitive and selective detection of cancer biomarkers is crucial for early diagnosis and treatment of cancer, one of the most dangerous diseases in the world. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), a class of hybrid porous materials fabricated through the assembly of metal ions/clusters and organic ligands, have attracted increasing attention in the sensing of cancer biomarkers, due to the advantages of adjustable size, high porosity, large surface area and ease of modification. MOFs have been utilized to not only fabricate active sensing interfaces but also arouse a variety of measurable signals. Several representative analytical technologies have been applied in MOF-based biosensing strategies to ensure high detection sensitivity toward cancer biomarkers, such as fluorescence, electrochemistry, electrochemiluminescence, photochemistry and colorimetric methods. In this review, we summarized recent advances on MOFs-based biosensing strategies for the detection of cancer biomarkers in recent three years based on the categories of metal nodes, and aimed to provide valuable references for the development of innovative biosensing platform for the purpose of clinical diagnosis.

Abstract
The pursuit of mesoporous Fe-based nanoagents addresses the field of developing alternative Fe-bearing nanoagents for synergistic cancer therapy with the expectation that the use of an essential element may avoid the issues raised by the exogenous administration of other metal element-based nanoagents. Herein, we highlight the interface-engineered mesoporous FeB (mFeB) where the core mFeB is interfacially oxidized into an FeOOH nanosheet loaded with the chemotherapeutic drug doxorubicin (DOX) and further encapsuled within the double-sulfide-bonded SiO2 outer layer, denoted as mFeB@DOX-ss-SiO2, which can realize programmed drug release for synergistic cancer theranostics. When only in a tumor microenvironment, the nanoagent can be activated to release DOX from the mFeB and FeOOH nanosheets as well as expose the easily oxidized mFeB to spontaneously transform to FeOOH nanosheets with Fenton activity to facilitate chemodynamic therapy (CDT). In addition, the high photothermal conversion efficiency of mFeB@DOX-ss-SiO2 would promote CDT. Also, owing to the inherent nature of ferromagnetism and red fluorescence of DOX, mFeB@DOX-ss-SiO2 can realize T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging and fluorescence imaging. In vivo mouse model experiments demonstrate that mFeB@DOX-ss-SiO2 with good biocompatibility realizing CDT/photothermal therapy/chemotherapy achieved complete tumor suppression. This study opens up a new way to explore theranostic nanoagents.
