Abstract
Tumor recurrence and massive bone defects are two critical challenges for postoperative treatment of oral and maxillofacial tumor, posing serious threats to the health of patients. Herein, in order to eliminate residual tumor cells and promote osteogenesis simultaneously, the hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) self-sufficient TCP-PDA-CaO2-CeO2 (TPCC) scaffolds are designed by preparing CaO2 or/and CeO2 nanoparticles (NPs)/chitosan solution and modifying the NPs into polydopamine (PDA)-modified 3D printed TCP scaffolds by rotary coating method. CaO2 NPs loaded on the scaffolds can release Ca2+ and sufficient H2O2 in the acidic tumor microenvironment (TME). The generated H2O2 can further produce hydroxyl radicals (·OH) under catalysis effect by peroxidase (POD) activity of CeO2 NPs, in which the photothermal effect of the PDA coating enhances its POD catalytic effect. Overall, NPs loaded on the scaffold chemically achieve a cascade reaction of H2O2 self-sufficiency and ·OH production, while functionally achieving synergistic effects on anti-tumor and bone promotion. In vitro and in vivo studies show that the scaffolds exhibit effective osteo-inductivity, induced osteoblast differentiation and promote osseointegration. Therefore, the multifunctional composite scaffolds not only validate the concept of chemo-dynamic therapy (CDT) cascade therapy, but also provide a promising clinical strategy for postoperative treatment of oral and maxillofacial tumor.

Abstract
A synergistic therapy agent (STA) with photothermal, photodynamic, chemodynamic, and starvation therapy (PTT, PDT, CDT, and ST) functions was developed. Hollow, mesoporous, and nearly uniform CeO2 nanoparticles (H-CeO2 NPs) were synthesized using a staged shape templating sol-gel protocol. Chlorin e6 (Ce6) was adsorbed onto H-CeO2 NPs, and a thin polydopamine (PDA) layer was formed on Ce6-adsorbed H-CeO2 NPs. Glucose oxidase (GOx) was bound onto PDA-coated Ce6-adsorbed H-CeO2 NPs to obtain the targeted STA (H-CeO2@Ce6@PDA@GOx NPs). A reversible photothermal conversion behavior with the temperature elevations up to 34 °C was observed by NIR laser irradiation at 808 nm. A cascade enzyme system based on immobilized GOx and intrinsic catalase-like activity of H-CeO2 NPs was rendered on STA for enhancing the effectiveness of PDT by elevation of ROS generation and alleviation of hypoxia in a tumor microenvironment. Glucose-mediated generation of highly toxic hydroxyl radicals (·OH) was evaluated for CDT. The effectiveness of PDT on glioblastoma T98G cells was markedly enhanced by O2 generation started by the decomposition of glucose. A similar increase in cell death was also observed when ST and CDT functions were enhanced by photothermal action. The viability of T98G cells decreased to 10.6% by in vitro synergistic action including ST, CDT, PDT, and PTT without using any antitumor agent.

Abstract
Nanozymes, as a type of nanomaterials with enzymatic catalytic activity, have demonstrated tremendous potential in cancer treatment owing to their unique biomedical properties. However, the heterogeneity of tumors and the complex tumor microenvironment pose significant challenges to the in vivo catalytic efficacy of traditional nanozymes. Drawing inspiration from natural enzymes, scientists are now using biomimetic design to build nanozymes from the ground up. This approach aims to replicate the key characteristics of natural enzymes, including active structures, catalytic processes, and the ability to adapt to the tumor environment. This achieves selective optimization of nanozyme catalytic performance and therapeutic effects. This review takes a deep dive into the use of these biomimetically designed nanozymes in cancer treatment. It explores a range of biomimetic design strategies, from structural and process mimicry to advanced functional biomimicry. A significant focus is on tweaking the nanozyme structures to boost their catalytic performance, integrating them into complex enzyme networks similar to those in biological systems, and adjusting functions like altering tumor metabolism, reshaping the tumor environment, and enhancing drug delivery. The review also covers the applications of specially designed nanozymes in pan-cancer treatment, from catalytic therapy to improved traditional methods like chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and sonodynamic therapy, specifically analyzing the anti-tumor mechanisms of different therapeutic combination systems. Through rational design, these biomimetically designed nanozymes not only deepen the understanding of the regulatory mechanisms of nanozyme structure and performance but also adapt profoundly to tumor physiology, optimizing therapeutic effects and paving new pathways for innovative cancer treatment.

Acta Biomater 2024; 177:431-443. [PMID: 38307478 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2024.01.041] [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: 09/16/2023] [Revised: 01/23/2024] [Accepted: 01/25/2024] [Indexed: 02/04/2024]
Abstract
The noble metal NPs that are currently applied to photothermal therapy (PTT) have their photoexcitation location mainly in the NIR-I range, and the low tissue penetration limits their therapeutic effect. The complexity of the tumor microenvironment (TME) makes it difficult to inhibit tumor growth completely with a single therapy. Although TME has a high level of H2O2, the intratumor H2O2 content is still insufficient to catalyze the generation of sufficient hydroxide radicals (‧OH) to achieve satisfactory therapeutic effects. The AuPd-GOx-HA (APGH) was obtained from AuPd bimetallic nanodumbbells modified by glucose oxidase (GOx) and hyaluronic acid (HA) for photothermal enhancement of tumor starvation and cascade catalytic therapy in the NIR-II region. The CAT-like activity of AuPd alleviates tumor hypoxia by catalyzing the decomposition of H2O2 into O2. The GOx-mediated intratumoral glucose oxidation on the one hand can block the supply of energy and nutrients essential for tumor growth, leading to tumor starvation. On the other hand, the generated H2O2 can continuously supply local O2, which also exacerbates glucose depletion. The peroxidase-like activity of bimetallic AuPd can catalyze the production of toxic ‧OH radicals from H2O2, enabling cascade catalytic therapy. In addition, the high photothermal conversion efficiency (η = 50.7 %) of APGH nanosystems offers the possibility of photothermal imaging-guided photothermal therapy. The results of cell and animal experiments verified that APGH has good biosafety, tumor targeting, and anticancer effects, and is a precious metal nanotherapeutic system integrating glucose starvation therapy, nano enzyme cascade catalytic therapy, and PTT therapy. This study provides a strategy for photothermal-cascade catalytic synergistic therapy combining both exogenous and endogenous processes. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: AuPd-GOx-HA cascade nanoenzymes were prepared as a potent cascade catalytic therapeutic agent, which enhanced glucose depletion, exacerbated tumor starvation and promoted cancer cell apoptosis by increasing ROS production through APGH-like POD activity. The designed system has promising photothermal conversion ability in the NIR-II region, simultaneously realizing photothermal-enhanced catalysis, PTT, and catalysis/PTT synergistic therapy both in vitro and in vivo. The present work provides an approach for designing and developing catalytic-photothermal therapies based on bimetallic nanoenzymatic cascades.

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
The weak catalytic activity of nanocatalysts and the insufficient endogenous hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in tumor microenvironment (TME) seriously restricted the efficacy of catalytic therapy, and the non-degradability of inorganic nanocarriers was also unfavorable for their clinical applications. Herein, by depositing gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and platinum nanoparticles (PtNPs) with ultrasmall size and modifying photosensitizer (IR808), a biocompatible bovine serum albumin (BSA) nanoplatform (BSA@Au/Pt-IR808) with triple-amplification of enzyme activity was constructed to enhance photodynamic therapy (PDT) and catalytic therapy. Ultrasmall AuNPs possessed glucose oxidase (GOx)-like activity, by which the self-supplying H2O2 accelerated the dual-enzyme activity of peroxidase (POD) and catalase (CAT) of ultrasmall PtNPs, promoting the generation of hydroxyl radical (·OH) and singlet oxygen (1O2). Compared with BSA-IR808 and BSA@Pt, the yields of 1O2 and ·OH of BSA@Au/Pt-IR808 increased by 38.2% and 18.6%. Under the combination action of photothermal therapy (PTT)/PDT/catalytic therapy of BSA@Au/Pt-IR808, the cell viability significantly reduced to 12.8%, and the tumors were completely eliminated, demonstrating the enhanced PDT and catalytic therapy against breast cancer.

Abstract
Disease or organ damage due to unhealthy living habits, or accidents, is inevitable. Discovering an efficient strategy to address these problems is urgently needed in the clinic. In recent years, the biological applications of nanotechnology have received extensive attention. Among them, as a widely used rare earth oxide, cerium oxide (CeO2 ) has shown good application prospects in biomedical fields due to its attractive physical and chemical properties. Here, the enzyme-like mechanism of CeO2 is elucidated, and the latest research progress in the biomedical field is reviewed. At the nanoscale, Ce ions in CeO2 can be reversibly converted between +3 and +4. The conversion process is accompanied by the generation and elimination of oxygen vacancies, which give CeO2 the performance of dual redox properties. This property facilitates nano-CeO2 to catalyze the scavenging of excess free radicals in organisms, hence providing a possibility for the treatment of oxidative stress diseases such as diabetic foot, arthritis, degenerative neurological diseases, and cancer. In addition, relying on its excellent catalytic properties, customizable life-signaling factor detectors based on electrochemical techniques are developed. At the end of this review, an outlook on the opportunities and challenges of CeO2 in various fields is provided.

Platinum (Pt) based nanoplatforms are biocompatible nanoagents with photothermal antitumor performance, while exhibiting excellent radiotherapy sensitization properties. Pt-nanoplatforms have extensive research prospects in the realm of cancer treatment due to their highly selective and minimally invasive treatment mode with low damage, and integrated diagnosis and treatment with image monitoring and collaborative drug delivery. Platinum based anticancer chemotherapeutic drugs can kill tumor cells by damaging DNA through chemotherapy. Meanwhile, Pt-nanoplatforms also have good electrocatalytic activity, which can mediate novel electrodynamic therapy. Simultaneously, Pt(II) based compounds also have potential as photosensitizers in photodynamic therapy for malignant tumors. Pt-nanoplatforms can also modulate the immunosuppressive environment and synergistically ablate tumor cells in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors. This article reviews the research progress of platinum based nanoplatforms in new technologies for cancer therapy, starting from widely representative examples of platinum based nanoplatforms in chemotherapy, electrodynamic therapy, photodynamic therapy, photothermal therapy, and immunotherapy. Finally, multimodal imaging techniques of platinum based nanoplatforms for biomedical diagnosis are briefly discussed.

Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2023; 222:113116. [PMID: 36603409 DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2022.113116] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/14/2022] [Revised: 12/14/2022] [Accepted: 12/22/2022] [Indexed: 12/25/2022]
Abstract
Novel highly hydrophilic and biocompatible bismuth nanospheres with gold nanoparticles growing outside (Bi@Au nano-acanthospheres, Bi@Au NASs) were synthesized through a simple procedure, which demonstrated to be a promising photothermal agent owing to the ultrahigh photothermal conversion efficiency (η = 46.6 %). The as-prepared Bi@Au NASs showed excellent blood compatibility and fairly low cytotoxicity to human lung cancer A549 cells, as well as efficient photothermal ablation (PTA) therapy induced by a near-infrared laser. Under the 808 nm laser radiation, the tumour temperature could be elevated by ∼25 °C high enough to kill the cancer cells. Moreover, the anticancer drug doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) was successfully loaded in Bi@Au NASs with a loading content as high as 16.78 % and released under a pH sensitive release profile, a characteristic beneficial for intravenous delivery of DOX into cancer cells for chemotherapy. The presence of the Bi element enabled Bi@Au NASs to act as a favourable computed tomography (CT) contrast medium for CT imaging-guided tumour treatment. Compared with cancer treatment through either photothermal therapy or chemotherapy, the chemo-photothermal synergistic therapy using Bi@Au NASs as both a photothermal agent and a drug carrier has efficiently enhanced the in vitro and in vivo therapeutic effects in cancer treatment.

Abstract
Bimetallic nanomaterials (BMNs) composed of two different metal elements have certain mixing patterns and geometric structures, and they often have superior properties than monometallic nanomaterials. Bimetallic-based nanomaterials have been widely investigated and extensively used in many biomedical fields especially cancer therapy because of their unique morphology and structure, special physicochemical properties, excellent biocompatibility, and synergistic effect. However, most reviews focused on the application of BMNs in cancer diagnoses (sensing, and imaging) and rarely mentioned the application of the treatment of cancer. The purpose of this review is to provide a comprehensive perspective on the recent progress of BNMs as therapeutic agents. We first introduce and discuss the synthesis methods, intrinsic properties (size, morphology, and structure), and optical and catalytic properties relevant to cancer therapy. Then, we highlight the application of BMNs in cancer therapy (e.g., drug/gene delivery, radiotherapy, photothermal therapy, photodynamic therapy, enzyme-mediated tumor therapy, and multifunctional synergistic therapy). Finally, we put forward insights for the forthcoming in order to make more comprehensive use of BMNs and improve the medical system of cancer treatment.

Abstract
Nanozymes are nanomaterials with mimicked enzymatic activity, whose catalytic activity can be designed by changing their physical parameters and chemical composition. With the development of biomedical and material science, artificially created nanozymes have high biocompatibility and can catalyze specific biochemical reactions under biological conditions, thus playing a vital role in regulating physiological activities. Under pathological conditions, natural enzymes are limited in their catalytic capacity by the varying reaction conditions. In contrast, compared to natural enzymes, nanozymes have advantages such as high stability, simplicity of modification, targeting ability, and versatility. As a result, the novel role of nanozymes in medicine, especially in tumor therapy, is gaining increasing attention. In this review, function and application of various nanozymes in the treatment of cancer are summarized. Future exploration paths of nanozymes in cancer therapies based on new insights arising from recent research are outlined.

Abstract
Malignant tumors, one of the worst-case scenarios within human health problems, are now posing an increasing threat to the well-being of the global population. At present, the treatment of malignant tumors mainly includes surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, etc. Radiotherapy and chemotherapy are often applied to inoperable tumors, and some other tumors after surgery as important adjuvant therapies. Nonetheless, both radiotherapy and chemotherapy have a series of side effects, such as radiation-induced lung injury, and chemotherapy-induced bone marrow suppression. In addition, the positioning accuracy of radiotherapy and chemotherapy is not assured and satisfactory, and the possibility of tumor cells not being sensitive to radiation and chemotherapy drugs is also problematic. Nanozymes are nanomaterials that display natural enzyme activities, and their applications to tumor therapy have made great progress recently. The most studied one, platinum nanozyme, has been shown to possess a significant correlation with radiotherapy sensitization of tumors as well as photodynamic therapy. However, there are still several issues that limited the usage of platinum-based nanozymes in vivo. In this review, we briefly summarize the representative studies regarding platinum nanozymes, and especially emphasize on the current challenges and the directions of future development for platinum nanozymes therapy.
