Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as a unique class of nanostructured materials, resulting from the self-assembly of metal ions or clusters with organic ligands, offering a wide range of applications in fields such as drug delivery, gas catalysis, and electrochemical sensing. Among them, HKUST-1, a copper-based MOF, has gained substantial attention due to its remarkable three-dimensional porous structure. Comprising copper ions and benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylic acid, HKUST-1 exhibits an extraordinary specific surface area and pronounced porosity, making it a promising candidate in biomedicine. Notably, the incorporation of copper ions endows HKUST-1 with noteworthy activities, including antitumor, antibacterial, and wound healing-promoting properties. In this comprehensive review, we delve into the various synthesis methods and activation pathways employed in the preparation of HKUST-1. We also explore the distinct advantages of HKUST-1 in terms of its structural properties and functionalities. Furthermore, we investigate the exciting and rapidly evolving biomedical applications of HKUST-1. From its role in tumor treatment to its antibacterial effects and its ability to promote wound healing, we showcase the multifaceted potential of HKUST-1 in addressing critical challenges in biomedicine.

Abstract
Regarded as one of the hallmarks of tumorigenesis and tumor progression, the evasion of apoptotic cell death would also account for treatment resistance or failure during cancer therapy. In this study, a Ca2+/Cu2+ dual-ion "nano trap" to effectively avoid cell apoptosis evasion by synchronously inducing paraptosis together with apoptosis was successfully designed and fabricated for breast cancer treatment. In brief, disulfiram (DSF)-loaded amorphous calcium carbonate nanoparticles (NPs) were fabricated via a gas diffusion method. Further on, the Cu2+-tannic acid metal phenolic network was embedded onto the NPs surface by self-assembling, followed by mDSPE-PEG/lipid capping to form the DSF-loaded Ca2+/Cu2+ dual-ions "nano trap". The as-prepared nanotrap would undergo acid-triggered biodegradation upon being endocytosed by tumor cells within the lysosome for Ca2+, Cu2+, and DSF releasing simultaneously. The released Ca2+ could cause mitochondrial calcium overload and lead to hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) overexpression. Meanwhile, Ca2+/reactive oxygen species-associated mitochondrial dysfunction would lead to paraptosis cell death. Most importantly, cell paraptosis could be further induced and strengthened by the toxic dithiocarbamate (DTC)-copper complexes formed by the Cu2+ combined with the DTC, the metabolic products of DSF. Additionally, the released Cu2+ will be reduced by intracellular glutathione to generate Cu+, which can catalyze the H2O2 to produce a toxic hydroxyl radical by a Cu+-mediated Fenton-like reaction for inducing cell apoptosis. Both in vitro cellular assays and in vivo antitumor evaluations confirmed the cancer therapeutic efficiency by the dual ion nano trap. This study can broaden the cognition scope of dual-ion-mediated paraptosis together with apoptosis via a multifunctional nanoplatform.

Therapeutic efficacy of rare earth carbonate with chemoradiotherapy in late-stage non-small cell lung cancer: a cohort prospective study. Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2023; 14:1301032. [PMID: 38192415 PMCID: PMC10773736 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2023.1301032] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2023] [Accepted: 11/24/2023] [Indexed: 01/10/2024] Open
Abstract
Objective To compare the therapeutic effects and adverse reactions of sterilizing rare earth carbonate combined with concurrent chemoradiotherapy and simple concurrent chemoradiotherapy in the treatment of late-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and to analyze the reasons for the differences. Method A total of 817 patients with pathologically diagnosed late-stage NSCLC from June 1, 2021 to December 30, 2022, in the affiliated hospital of Kunming University of Science and Technology, were selected. They were randomly divided into a control group of 394 people and an experimental group of 423 people. The control group was given concurrent chemoradiotherapy (cisplatin + etoposide), while the experimental group simultaneously took a low dose of sterilized rare earth carbonate (0.05mg/Kg). The χ² test and Fisher's test were used to compare the clinical pathological features, objective response rate (ORR), ECOG score, and adverse reactions of the two groups of patients, while survival analysis was used to compare the progression-free survival (PFS) of the two groups. Cox regression analysis was used to test factors related to prognosis. Results The differences in clinical pathological features between the two groups of patients were not statistically significant, with all P>0.05. The ORR of the control group was 45.18% (178/394), and the experimental group was 89.83% (380/423), with a statistically significant difference (P=0.001). After treatment, the ECOG score of the experimental group was lower than that of the control group, P<0.001. The adverse reaction grading of patients in both groups was below level 3 after treatment, and no treatment-related fatalities occurred. The risk of pulmonary infection and bone marrow suppression in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group. Conclusion In late-stage NSCLC patients, compared with simple concurrent chemoradiotherapy, the combination of concurrent chemoradiotherapy and sterilizing rare earth carbonate can significantly improve the short-term therapeutic effect and prognosis of patients, with good safety.

Abstract
Metal-organic framework (MOF) nanocomposites have recently gained intensive attention for biosensing and disease therapy applications owing to their outstanding physiochemical properties. However, the direct growth of MOF nanocomposites is usually hindered by the mismatched lattice in the interface between the MOF and other nanocomponents. Surface ligands, molecules with surfactant-like properties, are demonstrated to exhibit the robust capability to modify the interfacial properties of nanomaterials and can be utilized as a powerful strategy for the synthesis of MOF nanocomposites. Besides this, surface ligands also exhibit significant functions in the morphological control and functionalization of MOF nanocomposites, thus greatly enhancing their performance in biomedical applications. In this review, the surface ligand-assisted synthesis and biomedical applications of MOF nanocomposites are comprehensively reviewed. Firstly, the synthesis of MOF nanocomposites is discussed according to the diverse roles of surface ligands. Then, MOF nanocomposites with different properties are listed with their applications in biosensing and disease therapy. Finally, current challenges and further directions of MOF nanocomposites are presented to motivate the development of MOF nanocomposites with elaborate structures, enriched functions, and excellent application prospects.

Buffet-style Cu(II) for enhance disulfiram-based cancer therapy. J Colloid Interface Sci 2022; 624:734-746.

Abstract
Studies have shown that disulfiram (DSF) can combine with Cu2+ to form bis(N, N-diethyldithiocarbamate) copper(II) complex (CuET) as antitumor drugs. However, there is insufficient endogenous Cu2+ dose to eradicate cancer cells selectively. Inspired by the buffet, we use Cu2+ doped hollow zeolitic imidazolate framework nanoparticles (HZIFCu) as the carrier and equipped with DSF and indocyanine green (ICG) and targeted by folic acid (FA) (D&I@HZIFCu-FA) to enhance DSF-based cancer therapy. D&I@HZIFCu-FA could effectively supply Cu2+ by a buffet-style, assisting the "DSF-to-CuET" transformation in the tumor. Additionally, self-supply Cu2+ could convert H2O2 into ·OH by triggering a Fenton-like reaction for chemo-dynamic therapy, and ICG achieves photothermal therapy for tumors under laser irradiation. This work provides a buffet-style for Cu2+ to make DSF a strong candidate for cancer treatment by combining chemotherapy, chemo-dynamic therapy, and photothermal therapy and inspires more research about its applications in tumor therapy.

Abstract
Disulfiram (DSF) has been used as an alcoholism drug for 70 years. Recently, it has attracted increasing attention owing to the distinguished anticancer activity, which can be further potentiated by the supplementation of Cu2+. Although encouraging anticancer results are obtained in lab, the clinical outcomes of oral DSF are not satisfactory, which urges an in-depth understanding of the underlying mechanisms, bottlenecks, and proposal of potential methods to address the dilemma. In this review, a critical summarization of various molecular biological anticancer mechanisms of DSF/Cu2+ is provided and the predicament of orally delivering DSF in clinical oncotherapy is explained by the metabolic barriers. We highlight the recent advances in the DSF/Cu2+ delivery strategies and the emerging treatment regimens for cancer treatment. Last but not the least, we summarize the clinical trials regarding DSF and make a prospect of DSF/Cu-based cancer therapy.
