Abstract
Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is a severe condition characterized by impaired liver function and the excessive activation of ferroptosis. Unfortunately, there are limited options currently available for preventing or treating DILI. In this study, MnO2 nanoflowers (MnO2Nfs) with remarkable capabilities of mimicking essential antioxidant enzymes, including catalase, superoxide dismutase (SOD), and glutathione peroxidase are successfully synthesized, and SOD is the dominant enzyme among them by density functional theory. Notably, MnO2Nfs demonstrate high efficiency in effectively eliminating diverse reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), superoxide anion (O2 •-), and hydroxyl radical (•OH). Through in vitro experiments, it is demonstrated that MnO2Nfs significantly enhance the recovery of intracellular glutathione content, acting as a potent inhibitor of ferroptosis even in the presence of ferroptosis activators. Moreover, MnO2Nfs exhibit excellent liver accumulation properties, providing robust protection against oxidative damage. Specifically, they attenuate acetaminophen-induced ferroptosis by inhibiting ferritinophagy and activating the P62-NRF2-GPX4 antioxidation signaling pathways. These findings highlight the remarkable ROS scavenging ability of MnO2Nfs and hold great promise as an innovative and potential clinical therapy for DILI and other ROS-related liver diseases.

Abstract
Acute liver injury (AIL), a fatal clinical disease featured with a swift deterioration of hepatocyte functions in the short term, has emerged as a serious public health issues that warrants attention. However, the effectiveness of existing small molecular antioxidants and anti-inflammatory medications in alleviating AIL remains uncertain. The unique inherent structural characteristics of liver confer it a natural propensity for nanoparticle capture, which present an opportunity to exploit in the formulation of nanoscale therapeutic agents, enabling their selective accumulation in the liver and thereby facilitating targeted therapeutic interventions. Significantly increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation and inflammation response have been evidenced to play crucial roles in occurrence and development of AIL. Nanozymes with ROS-scavenging capacities have demonstrated considerable promise in ROS elimination and inflammation regulation, thereby offering an appealing therapeutic instrument for the management of acute liver injury. In this review, the mechanisms of different type of ALI were summarized. In addition, we provide a comprehensive summary and review of the available ROS-scavenging nanozymes, including transition metal-based nanozymes, noble metal nanozymes, carbon-based nanozymes, and some other nanozymes. Furthermore, the challenges still need to be solved in the field of ROS-scavenging nanozymes for ALI alleviation are also discussed.

Abstract
The field of nanozymes is developing rapidly. In particular, glutathione peroxidase (GPx)-like nanozymes, which catalytically reduce H2O2/organic hydroperoxides to H2O/alcohols, have attracted considerable attention. GPx-like nanozymes are powerful antioxidant enzymes known to combat oxidative stress. They have broad applications, including cytoprotection, anti-inflammation, neuroprotection, tumor therapy, and anti-aging. Although much progress has been made, GPx-like nanozymes have not been well discussed or fully reviewed as other nanozymes. This review aims to summarize recent advances on GPx-like nanozymes from the vantage point of mechanism, classification, and bioapplication. Future prospects for advancing their design and application are also discussed.
