Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are excellent candidates for a range of applications because of their numerous advantages, such as high surface area, porosity, and thermal and chemical stability. In this study, microwave (MW) irradiation is used as a novel stimulus in vitro controlled release of Doxorubicin (DOX) from two MOFs, namely Fe-BTC and MIL-53(Al), to enhance drug delivery in cancer therapy. DOX was encapsulated into Fe-BTC and MIL-53(Al) with drug-loading efficiencies of up to 67% for Fe-BTC and 40% for MIL-53(Al). Several characterization tests, including XRD, FTIR, TGA, BET, FE-SEM, and EDX, confirmed both MOF samples' drug-loading and -release mechanisms. Fe-BTC exhibited a substantial improvement in drug-release efficiency (54%) when exposed to microwave irradiation at pH 7.4 for 50 min, whereas 11% was achieved without the external modality. A similar result was observed at pH 5.3; however, in both cases, the release efficiencies were substantially higher with microwave exposure (40%) than without (6%). In contrast, MIL-53(Al) exhibited greater sensitivity to pH, displaying a higher release rate (66%) after 38 min at pH 5.3 compared to 55% after 50 min at pH 7.4 when subjected to microwave irradiation. These results highlight the potential of both MOFs as highly heat-responsive to thermal stimuli. The results of the MTT assay demonstrated the cell viability across different concentrations of the MOFs after two days of incubation. This suggests that MOFs hold promise as potential candidates for tumor targeting. Additionally, the fact that the cells maintained their viability at different durations of microwave exposure confirms that the latter is a safe modality for triggering drug release from MOFs.

Abstract
Zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF) is of wide interest in biomedical applications due to its extraordinary properties such as high storage capacity, functionality and favorable biocompatibility. However, more comprehensive safety assessments are still essential before ZIF is broadly used in biomedicine. Using the characteristic that aldehyde groups on the surface of ZIF-90 can be modified with other functional groups, a series of ZIF-90s modified with different functional groups (oxime group, carboxyl group, amino group and sulfhydryl group) were synthesized to investigate the effect of functionalization on the toxicity of ZIF-90. ZIF-90 series showed concentration-dependent toxic effects on Photobacterium phosphoreum T3 and the functionalized ZIF-90s are more toxic than pristine ZIF-90, with the ZIF-90 modified with amino group (ZIF-90-NH2) showing the strongest toxicity (IC50 = 23.06 mg/L). Based on the results of the cellular assay and stability exploration, we concluded that corresponding imidazole-ligand release and the property of positively charged are responsible for the elevated toxicity of ZIF-90-NH2. Cell membrane damage, oxidative damage and luminescence damage are the main contributors to the toxic effects of ZIF-90 series. This study explored the effect of surface functionalization on the toxicity of ZIF and proposed mechanistic clues for the safety application of ZIF.

Abstract
In this report, we synthesized some pyrimidine derivatives by multi-component reaction of urea, benzaldehydes, and 1,3-indandione in the presence of ZIF-8/ZnFe2O4/GO-OSO3H nanocomposite under reflux conditions. Initially, graphene oxide was prepared from graphite, and then it was sulfonated using ClOSO3H. Next, GO-OSO3H nanosheets were used to support ZIF-8/ZnFe2O4 nanostructure. The construction of the synthesized structure was established using different spectral techniques such as X-ray crystallography (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX/Mapping), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET). The present method provides various benefits including the efficiency of outcomes, easy separation of the catalyst, and excellent yield of the products within short reaction times. Moreover, the antibacterial activities of pyrimidine derivatives were investigated via the agar-well diffusion method on gram-negative (Escherichia coli) and gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) bacteria and the obtained results illustrated reasonable effects.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are porous materials with unique characteristics that make them well-suited for drug delivery and gene therapy applications. Among the MOFs, zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) has emerged as a promising candidate for delivering exogenous DNA into cells. However, the potential of ZIF-8 as a vector for sperm-mediated gene transfer (SMGT) has not yet been thoroughly explored.This investigation aimed to explore the potential of ZIF-8 as a vector for enhancing genetic transfer and transgenesis rates by delivering exogenous DNA into sperm cells. To test this hypothesis, we employed ZIF-8 to deliver a plasmid expressing green fluorescent protein (GFP) into mouse sperm cells and evaluated the efficiency of DNA uptake. Our findings demonstrate that ZIF-8 can efficiently load and deliver exogenous DNA into mouse sperm cells, increasing GFP expression in vitro. These results suggest that ZIF-8 is a valuable tool for enhancing genetic transfer in SMGT, with important implications for developing genetically modified animals for research and commercial purposes. Additionally, our study highlights the potential of ZIF-8 as a novel class of vectors for gene delivery in reproductive biology.Overall, our study provides a foundation for further research into using ZIF-8 and other MOFs as gene delivery systems in reproductive biology and underscores the potential of these materials as promising vectors for gene therapy and drug delivery.

Int J Nanomedicine 2023; 18:7985-7999. [PMID: 38164268 PMCID: PMC10758197 DOI: 10.2147/ijn.s438771] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/03/2023] [Accepted: 12/20/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024] Open
Abstract
Background As a broad-spectrum antitumorigenic agent, doxorubicin (DOX) is commonly used as a chemotherapeutic drug for treating osteosarcoma (OS). Still, it is associated with significant cell toxicity and ineffective drug delivery, whereas the zeolite imidazolate framework is extensively applied in the biomedical field as a carrier owing to its favorable biocompatibility, high porosity, and pH-responsiveness. Therefore, we need to develop a drug delivery platform that can effectively increase the antitumorigenic effect of the loaded drug and concurrently minimize drug toxicity. Methods In this study, a Fe3O4@ZIF-8 nanocomposite carrier was prepared with ZIF-8 as the shell and encapsulated with Fe3O4 by loading DOX to form DOX- Fe3O4@ZIF-8 (DFZ) drug-loaded magnetic nanoparticles. Then, we characterized and analyzed the morphology, particle size, and characteristics of Fe3O4@ZIF-8 and DFZ by TEM, SEM, and Malvern. Moreover, we examined the inhibitory effects of DFZ in vitro and in vivo. Meanwhile, we established a tumor-bearing mouse model, evaluating its tumor-targeting by external magnetic field guidance. Results DFZ nanoparticles possessed have a size of ~110 nm, with an encapsulation rate of 21% and pH responsiveness. DFZ exerted a superior cytostatic effect and apoptosis rate on K7M2 cells in vitro compared to DOX(p<0.01). In animal experiments, DFZ offers up to 67% tumor inhibition and has shown a superior ability to induce apoptosis than DOX alone in TUNEL results(p<0.01). Tumor-targeting experiments have validated that DFZ can be effectively accumulated in the tumor tissue and enhance anticancer performance. Conclusion In summary, the DFZ nano-delivery system exhibited a more substantial anti-tumorigenic effect as well as superior active tumor targeting of DOX- Fe3O4@ZIF-8 compared to that of DOX alone in terms of biocompatibility, drug loading capacity, pH-responsiveness, tumor-targeting, and anti-tumorigenic effect, indicating its chemotherapeutic application potential.

Abstract
Liver fibrosis is a progressive histological manifestation that happens in almost all chronic liver diseases. An unabated liver fibrosis may eventually develop into liver cirrhosis or hepatocellular carcinoma. Yet, the strategy for reversal of liver fibrosis is still limited. Herein, a biomimetic nano-regulator (P-ZIF8-cirDNAzyme) is developed to affect both collagen synthesis and degradation in liver to remodel collagen microenvironment. It is found that Zn (II) interference can efficiently inhibit collagen synthesis in activated hepatic stellate cells (aHSC) by inactivating proline 4 hydroxylase and affecting many fibrosis-related signaling pathways. Meanwhile, Zn (II)-dependent circular DNAzymes (cirDNAzymes) are used to efficiently silence tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinase-1, accelerating the degradation of collagen. They act in concert to recover the balance between collagen deposition and degradation. Additionally, ZIF-8-cirDNAzyme is coated by platelet membrane (PM) for precisely targeting aHSC via PM's inflammatory tropism and CD62p-CD44 interaction. In carbon tetrachloride-induced fibrotic mice, P-ZIF-8-cirDNAzyme shows a potent anti-fibrotic effect, greatly reducing the expression of collagen by 73.12% and restoring liver function nearly to normal. This work proposes a prospective platform enabling ion interference and gene silencing, collectively acting in aHSC for reversal of liver fibrosis.

Abstract
Zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF-67) has been decorated with natural biomaterials and DNA to develop a promising strategy and suitable and safe co-delivery platform for doxorubicin and sorafenib (DOX-SOR). FT-IR, XRD, FESEM, and TEM were used to characterize the modified MOFs. Combined Ginkgo biloba leaf extract and E. coli DNA were used as green decorations, and as environmentally-friendly methods to be developed, and DOX and SOR were attached to the porosity and on the surface of the MOFs. TEM and FESEM images demonstrated that the green MOFs were successfully synthesized for biomedical applications and showed their cubic structure. As a result of the nanocarrier-drug interactions, 59.7% and 60.2% of the drug payload were achieved with DOX and SOR, respectively. HEK-293, HT-29, and MCF-7 cells displayed excellent viability by decoration with DNA and Ginkgo biloba leaf extract at low and high concentrations (0.1 and 50 μg/mL), suggesting they could be used in biomedical applications. MTT assays demonstrated that the nanocarriers are highly biocompatible with normal cells and possess anticancer properties when applied to HT-29 and MCF-7 cells. As a result of Ginkgo biloba leaf extract and DNA modification, DOX-SOR release was prolonged and pH-sensitive (highest release at pHs 4.5 and 5.5). The internalization and delivery of the drug were also studied using a 2d fluorescence microscope, demonstrating that the drug was effectively internalized. Cell images showed NPs internalizing in MCF-7 cells, proving their efficacy as drug delivery systems.

Abstract
Glucose oxidase (GOx) has a great application potential in the determination of glucose concentration. However, its sensitivity to the environment and poor recyclability limited its broader application. Herein, with the assistance of DA-PEG-DA, a novel immobilized GOx based on amorphous Zn-MOFs (DA-PEG-DA/GOx@aZIF-7/PDA) was developed to impart excellent properties to the enzyme. SEM, TEM, XRD, and BET analyses confirmed that GOx was embedded in amorphous ZIF-7 with ~5 wt% loading. Compared with free GOx, DA-PEG-DA/GOx@aZIF-7/PDA exhibited enhanced stability, excellent reusability, and promising potential for glucose detection. After 10 repetitions, the catalytic activity of DA-PEG-DA/GOx@aZIF-7/PDA can maintain 95.53 % ± 3.16 %. In understanding the in situ embedding of GOx in ZIF-7, the interaction of zinc ion and benzimidazole with GOx was studied by using molecular docking and multi-spectral methods. Results showed that zinc ions and benzimidazole had multiple binding sites on the enzyme, which induced the accelerated synthesis of ZIF-7 around the enzyme. During binding, the structure of the enzyme changes, but such changes hardly affect the activity of the enzyme. This study provides not only a preparation strategy of immobilized enzyme with high activity, high stability, and low enzyme leakage rate for glucose detection, but also a more comprehensive understanding of the formation of immobilized enzymes using the in situ embedding strategy.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) hold great promise for widespread applications in biomedicine and nanomedicine. MOFs are one of the most fascinating nanocarriers for drug delivery, benefiting from their high porosity and facile modification. Furthermore, the tailored components of MOFs can be therapeutic agents for various treatments, including drugs as organic ligands of MOFs, active metal as central metal ions of MOFs, and their combinations as carrier-free MOF-based nanodrug. In this review, the advances in delivery systems and applications as therapeutic agents for nanoscale MOF-based materials are summarized. The challenges of MOFs in clinical translation and the future directions in the field of MOFs therapy are also discussed. We hope that more researchers will focus their attention on advancing and translating MOF-based nanodrugs into pre-clinical and clinical applications.

Abstract
Photoreceptor degeneration is one of the major causes of progressive blindness which lacks of curative treatment. GW2580, a highly selective inhibitor of colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor, has the protective potential on neurons; however, little was known about the application of GW2580 on photoreceptor degeneration. In this study, BV-2 and 661W cells coculture system was constructed to investigate the interaction between microglia and photoreceptors. GW2580 was loaded into zeolitic imidazolate framework-90-rhodamine B (ZIF-90-RhB) to synthesize a novel kind of nanoparticles, namely, ZIF-90-RhB-GW2580, through a one-step self-assembly approach. A photoreceptor degeneration model was generated by intense light exposure in zebrafish and ZIF-90-RhB-GW2580 nanoparticles were delivered by the intraocular injection. The results showed that in vitro GW2580 treatment promoted phenotypic transformation in microglia and led to the blockade of photoreceptor apoptosis. Following the intraocular delivery of ZIF-90-RhB-GW2580 nanoparticles, the microglial proliferation and inflammatory response were significantly inhibited; moreover, the photoreceptors underwent alleviated injury with a recovery of retinal structure and visual function. In conclusion, the intraocular injection of ZIF-90-RhB-GW2580 at the early stage enables the precise delivery and sustained release of the GW2580, thus preventing the progression of photoreceptor degeneration.

Abstract
Metal ions or clusters that have been bonded with organic linkers to create one- or more-dimensional structures are referred to as metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). Reticular synthesis also forms MOFs with properly designated components that can result in crystals with high porosities and great chemical and thermal stability. Due to the wider surface area, huge pore size, crystalline nature, and tunability, numerous MOFs have been shown to be potential candidates in various fields like gas storage and delivery, energy storage, catalysis, and chemical/biosensing. This study provides a quick overview of the current MOF synthesis techniques in order to familiarize newcomers in the chemical sciences field with the fast-growing MOF research. Beginning with the classification and nomenclature of MOFs, synthesis approaches of MOFs have been demonstrated. We also emphasize the potential applications of MOFs in numerous fields such as gas storage, drug delivery, rechargeable batteries, supercapacitors, and separation membranes. Lastly, the future scope is discussed along with prospective opportunities for the synthesis and application of nano-MOFs, which will help promote their uses in multidisciplinary research.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have a good designability, a well-defined pore, stimulus responsiveness, a high surface area, and a controllable morphology. Up to now, various MOFs have been widely used as nanocarriers and have attracted lots of attention in the field of drug delivery and release because of their good biocompatibility and high-drug-loading capacity. Herein, we provide a comprehensive summary of MOF-based nanocarriers for drug delivery and release over the last five years. Meanwhile, some representative examples are highlighted in detail according to four categories, including the University of Oslo MOFs, Fe-MOFs, cyclodextrin MOFs, and other MOFs. Moreover, the opportunities and challenges of MOF-based smart delivery vehicles are discussed. We hope that this review will be helpful for researchers to understand the recent developments and challenges of MOF-based drug-delivery systems.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a common head and neck cancer, and the incidence of OSCC is increasing. As the mortality of OSCC keeps increasing, it is crucial to clarify its pathogenesis and develop new therapeutic strategies. METHODS Confocal laser scanning microscopy was used to evaluate the uptake of nanoparticles (NPs). The potential functions of USP30 were evaluated by cell counting kit (CCK)-8, flow cytometry, biochemical assay, coimmunoprecipitation, qRT-PCR, and immunoblotting. The antitumor effect of NP-loaded USP30 inhibitor MF-094 was evaluated in vitro and in vivo. RESULTS In this study, increased USP30 expression was found in OSCC specimens and cell lines through qRT-PCR and immunoblotting. CCK-8, flow cytometry, and biochemical assay revealed that the deubiquitylated catalytic activity of USP30 contributed to cell viability and glutamine consumption of OSCC. Subsequently, USP30 inhibitor MF-094 was loaded in ZIF-8-PDA and PEGTK to fabricate ZIF-8-PDA-PEGTK nanoparticles, which exhibited excellent inhibition of cell viability and glutamine consumption of OSCC, both in vitro and in vivo. CONCLUSION The results indicated the clinical significance of USP30 and showed that nanocomposites provide a targeted drug delivery system for treating OSCC.

Abstract
In this study, the flexible aluminum-based MIL-53(Al) metal-organic framework was loaded with doxorubicin (DOX) and naproxen (NAP) and was examined as a promising pH/ultrasound dual-responsive drug delivery system. The two drugs were encapsulated in MIL-53(Al) individually to produce
the DOX@MIL-53(Al) and NAP@MIL-53(Al) nanocarriers. They were also encapsulated as a dual-drug formulation to produce the DOX* + NAP*@MIL-53(Al) nanocarrier. The MOF nanoparticles were characterized using the Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared
spectroscopy (FTIR), and Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) techniques. In the case of the DOX@MIL, the nanocarriers’ drug Encapsulation Efficiency (EE) and Encapsulation Capacity (EC) were 92% and 16 wt.%, respectively, whereas, in the case of NAP@MIL-53(Al), the average NAP EE and EC were
around 97.7% and 8.5 wt.%, respectively. On the other hand, in the DOX* + NAP*@MIL-53(Al) nanoparticles, the average DOX* EE and EC were 38.9% and 6.22 wt.%, respectively, while for NAP*, the average EE and EC were 70.2% and 4.49 wt.%, respectively. In vitro release experiments demonstrated
the good pH and Ultrasound (US) dual-responsiveness of these nanocarriers, with a maximum US-triggered DOX and NAP release, at a pH level of 7.4, of approximately 53% and 95%, respectively. In comparison, the measured release was around 90% and 36% at pH 5.3 for DOX and NAP, respectively.
In the case of the dualdrug formulation, the nanocarrier displayed similar pH/US dual-responsive behavior. Finally, the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) results confirmed the biocompatibility and low cytotoxicity of MIL-53(Al) at concentrations up to 1000
μg/ml.

Hybrid liposome/metal-organic framework as a promising dual-responsive nanocarriers for anticancer drug delivery. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2022; 217:112599.

Abstract
In this work, liposome-coated iron (III) benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate (Fe-BTC) metal-organic framework is examined as a promising pH/Ultrasound dual-responsive nanocarriers for doxorubicin (DOX) delivery. The successful coating of the MOF particles (Lip-Fe-BTC) with the phospholipid bilayer (PBL) was established by direct fusion into the synthesized liposomes. The liposome coating was verified using several techniques, including dynamic light scattering (DLS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The DLS measurements showed an increase in the average particle diameter of liposomes from 150 nm to 163.1 nm for Lip-Fe-BTC particles. The Fe-BTC particles had the highest average particle diameter (287.3 nm). These results demonstrated that the PBL reduced the aggregation of the particles and improved their dispersity in the release medium. The TGA results demonstrated the MOF's excellent thermal stability. Furthermore, the nanocarrier's loading efficiency and capacity were determined to be ~90% and ~13.5 wt%, respectively. The in-vitro DOX release experiments demonstrated that the DOX-loaded Fe-BTC and liposome-coated Fe-BTC particles showed good pH and US dual-responsive capability, making them promising nanocarriers for drug delivery. The application of US enhanced DOX release from both Fe-BTC and liposome-coated Fe-BTC. In the case of Fe-BTC-DOX particles, the application of US enhanced the DOX release to around 38% and 67%, at pH levels of 7.4 and 5.3, respectively. Similarly, DOX release from the Lip-Fe-BTC-DOX particles reached ~35% and ~53%, at pH levels of 7.4 and 5.3, respectively. The MTT assay showed the biocompatibility and low cytotoxicity of these nanocarriers below 100 µg/ml.

Abstract
Zeolite imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) is a promising platform for drug delivery, and information regarding the stability of ZIF-8 nanoparticles in cell culture media is essential for proper interpretation of in vitro experimental results. In this work, we report a quantitative investigation of the ZIF-8 nanoparticle's stability in most common cell culture media. To this purpose, ZIF-8 nanoparticles containing sterically shielded nitroxide probes with high resistance to reduction were synthesized and studied using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR). The degradation of ZIF-8 in cell media was monitored by tracking the cargo leakage. It was shown that nanoparticles degrade at least partially in all studied media, although the degree of cargo leakage varies widely. We found a strong correlation between the amount of escaped cargo and total concentration of amino acids in the environment. We also established the role of individual amino acids in ZIF-8 degradation. Finally, 2-methylimidazole preliminary dissolved in cell culture media partially inhibits the degradation of ZIF-8 nanoparticles. The guidelines for choosing the proper cell culture medium for the in vitro study of ZIF-8 nanoparticles have been formulated.

Abstract
Despite the promise of tumor starvation therapies, they are often associated with nonspecific and incomplete energy blockade. Here, a novel paradigm of starvation therapy is proposed to synergize the "Zn2+ interference"-mediated glycolysis inhibition and Zn2+ -activating GLUT1 (Glucose transporter 1) tumor specific depletion for systematic energy exhaustion. It is discovered that ZIF-8 (zinc imidazolate metal-organic frameworks ) can induce abrupt intracellular Zn2+ elevation preferentially in melanoma cells, and then achieve effective glycolysis blockade through "Zn2+ interference"-triggered decrease of NAD+ and inactivation of GAPDH, making it a powerful tumor energy nanoinhibitor. Meanwhile, Zn2+ -activating DNAzymes for specifically cleaving GLUT1 mRNA is designed. This DNAzyme can only be activated under intracellular Zn2+ overloading, and then directionally cut off glucose supply, which further restrains the adaptive up-regulation of glycolytic flux after glycolysis inhibition in tumors. Afterward, DNAzymes are loaded in ZIF-8 concurrently tethered by hyaluronic acid (HA), constructing a "nanoenabled energy interrupter ". Such a rational design presents a preferential accumulation tendency to tumor sites due to the active CD44-targeting mechanisms, specifically achieves remarkable systematic energy exhaustion in melanoma cells, and affords 80.8% in tumor growth suppression without systemic toxicity in vivo. This work verifies a fascinating therapeutic platform enabling ion interference-inductive starvation strategy for effective tumor therapy.

[PMID: 35213987 PMCID: PMC8875190 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics14020254] [Citation(s) in RCA: 34] [Impact Index Per Article: 17.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2021] [Revised: 01/14/2022] [Accepted: 01/16/2022] [Indexed: 12/31/2022] Open
Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) is one of the most widely used anthracycline anticancer drugs due to its high efficacy and evident antitumoral activity on several cancer types. However, its effective utilization is hindered by the adverse side effects associated with its administration, the detriment to the patients’ quality of life, and general toxicity to healthy fast-dividing cells. Thus, delivering DOX to the tumor site encapsulated inside nanocarrier-based systems is an area of research that has garnered colossal interest in targeted medicine. Nanoparticles can be used as vehicles for the localized delivery and release of DOX, decreasing the effects on neighboring healthy cells and providing more control over the drug’s release and distribution. This review presents an overview of DOX-based nanocarrier delivery systems, covering loading methods, release rate, and the cytotoxicity of liposomal, micellar, and metal organic frameworks (MOFs) platforms.

Abstract
With the steady development of metal-organic framework (MOF) materials, this peculiar class of three-dimensional materials has found application prospects in a myriad of areas. The integration of different metals with various categories of ligands engendered a full gamut of frameworks, which of course are supplemented by diversified modification methods. Amongst many metal centers utilized to design and synthesize targeted MOFs, alkali/alkaline earth metal-based MOFs are gaining significant attention because these metal centers can be regarded as human endogenous metals. Numerous studies have shown that alkali/alkaline earth metal MOFs (A/A-E MOFs) tend to have better properties than other metals. This is because A/A-E MOFs offer better biocompatibility, so it is expected to be used in a broader field of biomedicine in the near future. This review mainly introduces the application of A/A-E MOF materials in drug delivery, sensing, and some materials with unique biomedical applications, and elaborates the challenges, obstacles and development of some A/A-E MOF materials in the biomedical field.

Abstract
The zeolitic imidazolate framework ZIF-8 (Zn(mim)2, mim = 2-methylimidazolate) has recently been proposed as a drug delivery platform for anticancer therapy based on its capability of decomposing in acidic media. The concept presumes a targeted release of encapsulated drug molecules in the vicinity of tumor tissues that typically produce secretions with elevated acidity. Due to challenges of in vivo and in vitro examination, many studies have addressed the kinetics of ZIF-8 decomposition and subsequent drug release in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) with adjusted acidity. However, the presence of hydrogen phosphate anions [HPO4]2− in PBS may also affect the stability of ZIF-8. As yet, no separate analysis has been performed comparing the dissolving capabilities of PBS and various acidification agents used for regulating pH. Here, we provide a systematic study addressing the effects of phosphate anions with and without lactic acid on the degradation rate of ZIF-8 microcrystals. Lactic acid has been chosen as an experimental acidification agent, since it is particularly secreted by tumor cells. Interestingly, the effect of a lactic acid solution with pH 5.0 on ZIF-8 degradation is shown to be weaker compared to a PBS solution with pH 7.4. However, as an additive, lactic acid is able to enhance the decomposition efficacy of other solutions by 10 to 40 percent at the initial stage, depending on the presence of other ions. Additionally, we report mild toxicity of ZIF-8 and its decomposition products, as examined on HDF and A549 cell lines. ZIF-8 microcrystals demonstrate different degradation kinetics in water, PBS (pH 7.4), and PBS with lactic acid (pH 5.0).![]()

Abstract
The curing of a mixture of glycidyl phenyl ether (GPE) and hexahydro-4-methylphthalic anhydride (MHHPA) with zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs)-ZIF-7, ZIF-8, ZIF-11, and ZIF-14-as latent thermal initiators has been critically evaluated. For ZIF-8 and ZIF-14, the % conversion values for GPE were 92 and 93%, respectively, for curing at 100 °C and for 1 h. With regard to the stability of ZIF-8 and ZIF-14 in the GPE-MHHPA mixture, the % conversion values for GPE were 11 and 12% for storage over 8 days at 25 °C. The ZIF-8 and ZIF-14 initiators exhibited excellent thermal latency for heating at 100 °C and showed good stability for storage at 25 °C. To evaluate the practicality of the resin curing system, the reactions of 2,2-bis(4-glycidyloxyphenyl)propane (DGEBA) and MHHPA with ZIFs were studied by differential scanning calorimetry. Prominent exothermic peaks for ZIF-8 and ZIF-14 were observed at 157 and 162 °C, respectively; by comparison, for the commercially available microencapsulated latent thermal initiators HX-3088 and HX-3722, the respective peak maxima were 177 and 181 °C, respectively. The exothermic peak maxima for ZIF-8 and ZIF-14 were lower than those for HX-3088 and HX-3722. The ZIF-8 and ZIF-14 initiators can be stored in precured epoxy resin at 25 °C and cured by lower temperatures compared with commercially-available initiators HX-3088 and HX-3722.

Abstract
Purpose Bone metastases are common in malignant tumors, especially for the advanced cancers. Chemotherapy is an important treatment in clinic, but the application is limited due to the severe adverse reactions. We try to design bone-targeted drug delivery systems (DDS) for the delivery of chemotherapeutic drugs in bone metastatic carcinoma. Material and Methods We added alendronate (Aln) to metal organic framework (MOF) to synthesize a new bone-targeted DDS named Aln-MOF. Doxorubicin (DOX) as a classic anti-cancer drug was encapsulated. The material characterization, drug release and bone affinity were detected. In vitro experiment, the cell toxicity was detected by cck-8 test and cellular uptake were detected by laser scanning confocal microscope and flow cytometry. In vivo experiment, the pharmacokinetics of DDS in the blood was analyzed by fluorescence spectrophotometer and the biodistribution was detected by a multi-mode optical in vivo imaging system. The anti-tumor effects of MOFDOX and Aln-MOFDOX were evaluated by monitoring the tumor volume and weight during the animal experiment. In addition, the toxicity of DDS to different organs was determined by HE staining. Results Aln-MOF showed good stability, no cytotoxicity and better bone affinity than MOF. Both MOFDOX and Aln-MOFDOX could release DOX, and the release rate at pH = 5.5 was faster than the rate at pH = 7.4. The cellular uptake of Aln-MOF and MOF showed no difference. Aln-MOF had a long retention time in blood, which is beneficial for the enrichment of Aln-MOF in tumor sites. Aln-MOF mainly concentrated at bone metastases in mice. MOFDOX and Aln-MOFDOX could effectively delay tumor progression, and the effect of Aln-MOFDOX was more obvious (P < 0.05). Conclusion Our study confirmed that Aln-MOF has good stability, bone targeting and biosafety. Aln-MOFDOX could release DOX and effectively kill tumor cells of bone metastases. Aln-MOFDOX has a promising prospect in the treatment of bone metastasis.

Abstract
AbstractDeveloping cost-effective electrocatalysts for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is vital in energy conversion and storage applications. Herein, we report a simple method for the synthesis of graphene-reinforced CoS/C nanocomposites and the evaluation of their electrocatalytic performance for typical electrocatalytic reactions. Nanocomposites of CoS embedded in N, S co-doped porous carbon and graphene (CoS@C/Graphene) were generated via simultaneous sulfurization and carbonization of one-pot synthesized graphite oxide-ZIF-67 precursors. The obtained CoS@C/Graphene nanocomposites were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis-mass spectroscopy, scanning electronic microscopy, transmission electronic microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and gas sorption. It is found that CoS nanoparticles homogenously dispersed in the in situ formed N, S co-doped porous carbon/graphene matrix. The CoS@C/10Graphene composite not only shows excellent electrocatalytic activity toward ORR with high onset potential of 0.89 V, four-electron pathway and superior durability of maintaining 98% of current after continuously running for around 5 h, but also exhibits good performance for OER and HER, due to the improved electrical conductivity, increased catalytic active sites and connectivity between the electrocatalytic active CoS and the carbon matrix. This work offers a new approach for the development of novel multifunctional nanocomposites for the next generation of energy conversion and storage applications.

Abstract
In recent year, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been displayed to be a category of promising drug delivery systems because of their crystalline structure, the potential of further functionality, and high porosity. In this research, graphene oxide was synthesized from pure graphite via hummer method and then MgFe2O4 nanoparticles was incorporated into the synthesized ZIF-8 metal-organic frameworks which followed with loading on the surfaces of graphene oxide. In continue, tetracycline as an antibiotic drug was loaded on the surfaces and the cavities of the prepared nanocomposite. The outcomes of this research revealed that 90% of the tetracycline was loaded on the synthesized ZIF-8/GO/MgFe2O4 nanostructure. Next, drug release was done at pH: 5 and pH: 7.4 within 3 days, resulting about 88% and 92% release of the tetracycline, respectively. With using different spectroscopic methods like X-ray crystallography (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX/Mapping), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), thermalgravimetric analysis (TGA), and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), the structure of synthesized materials was confirmed. Furthermore, the antibiotic activity of tetracycline trapped into the ZIF-8/GO/MgFe2O4 was evaluated by agar-well diffusion method on both gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) and gram-negative (Escherichia coli) bacteria, which showed good antibacterial results.

Abstract
Owing to their facile synthesis, tailorable porosity, diverse compositions, and low toxicity, zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF) nanoparticles (NPs) have emerged as attractive platforms for a variety of biologically relevant applications. To date, a small subset of ZIFs representing only two topologies and very few linker chemistries have been studied in this realm. We seek to expand the bio-design space for ZIF NPs through the targeted synthesis of a hierarchically complex ZIF based on two types of cages, ZIF-20, with lta topology. This study demonstrates the rapid synthesis and size tunability of ZIF-20 particles across the micro and nanoregimes via microwave heating and the use of a modulating agent. To evaluate the utility of ZIF particles for biological applications, we examine their stability in biologically relevant media and demonstrate biocompatibility with A549 human epithelial cells. Further, the ability to encapsulate and release methylene blue, a therapeutic and bioimaging agent, is validated. Importantly, ZIF-20 NPs display a unique behavior relative to previously studied ZIFs based on their specific structural and chemical features. This finding highlights the need to expand the design space across the broader ZIFs family, to exploit a wider range of relevant properties for biological applications and beyond.

Abstract
Chagas disease is a neglected tropical disease caused by the flagellate protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi (T. cruzi). Endemic in underdeveloped and developed countries, due to the migratory movement, it is considered a serious public health problem. Endemic in underdeveloped countries and due to the migratory movement, in developed countries as well, it is considered a serious public health problem. One of the reasons for this is a weak therapeutic arsenal, represented only by the drug benznidazole (BNZ) which, although it promotes significant cure rates in the acute phase of the disease, presents serious problems of toxicity and bioavailability, mainly due to its low aqueous solubility. Several studies have presented several drug delivery systems (DDS) based on BNZ aiming at enhancing its solubility in aqueous medium and, with this, promoting an increase in the dissolution rate and, consequently, in its bioavailability. However, the present work is a pioneer in using a zeolitic imidazolate framework as a carrier agent for a DDS in order to promote a pH-sensitive modulation of the drug. Thus, this work aimed to develop a novel DDS based on BNZ and the ZIF-8 to use it in development of prolonged-release dosage forms to alternative treatment of Chagas disease. The BNZ@ZIF-8 system was obtained through an ex situ method selected due to its higher incorporation efficiency (38%). Different characterization techniques corroborated the obtainment and drug release data were analyzed by in vitro dissolution assay under sink and non-sink conditions and setting the kinetic results through both model dependent and independent methods. Under sink conditions, at pH 4.5, BNZ and BNZ@ZIF-8 showed similar release profile, but the DDS was effective in promoting a prolonged release. At pH 7.6, after 7 h, BNZ showed a lower release than BNZ@ZIF-8. On the other hand, in non-sink conditions at pH 4.5 the BNZ presented 80% of drug release in 3 h, while the DDS in 6 h. At pH 7.6, BNZ presented a release of 80% in 2 h, while the DDS reaches it in only at 12 h. Therefore, at pH 4.5 the DDS BNZ@ZIF-8 showed a faster release with a burst effect, while at pH 7.6 it showed a prolonged and controlled release. Finally, it is evident that a promising DDS pH-sensitive was obtained as a novel carrier that might be able to prolongs BNZ release in dosage forms intended for the alternative treatment of Chagas disease.

Abstract
Zeolite imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF8) represents a class of highly porous materials with a very high surface area, large pore volume, thermal stability, and biocompatibility. In this study, ZIF8-based nanostructures demonstrated a high loading capacity for doxorubicin (62 mg Dox per g ZIF8) through the combination of π-π stacking, hydrogen bonding, and electrostatic interactions. Dox-loaded ZIF8 was subsequently decorated with polyacrylic acid (PAA) (ZIF8-Dox@PAA) that showed good dispersity, fluorescent imaging capability, and pH-responsive drug release. The stable localization and association of Dox in ZIF8@PAA were investigated by C13 nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The NMR chemical shifts suggest the formation of hydrogen bonding interactions and π-π stacking interactions between the imidazole ring of ZIF8 and the benzene ring of Dox that can significantly improve the storage of Dox in the ZIF8 nanostructure. Additionally, the release mechanism of ZIF8-Dox@PAA was discussed based on the detachment of the PAA layer, enhanced solubility of Dox, and destruction of ZIF8 at different pH conditions. In vitro release test of ZIF8-Dox@PAA at pH 7.4 showed the low release rate of 24.7% even after 100 h. However, ZIF8-Dox@PAA at pH 4.0 exhibited four stages of release profiles, significantly enhanced release rate of 84.7% at the final release stage after 30 h. The release kinetics of ZIF8-Dox@PAA was analyzed by the sigmoidal Hill, exponential Weibull, and two-stage BiDoseResp models. The ZIF8-Dox@PAA nanocarrier demonstrated a promising theranostic nanoplatform equipped with fluorescent bioimaging, pH-responsive controlled drug release, and high drug loading capacity.

Abstract
Chemotherapeutic agents used in treating certain cancer types operate in a non-selective manner tending to accumulate in normal, healthy tissue when high doses are used. To mitigate the toxicity effect resulting from this, there is an urgent need to develop active nano delivery systems capable of regulating optimal doses specifically to cancer cells without harming adjacent normal cells. Herein, we report a versatile nanoparticle - zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (nZIF-8) - that is loaded with a chemotherapeutic agent (gemcitabine; GEM) and surface-functionalized with an autonomous homing system (Arg-Gly-Asp peptide ligand; RGD) via a straightforward, one-pot solvothermal reaction. Successful functionalization of the surface of nZIF-8 loaded GEM (GEM⊂nZIF-8) with RGD was proven by spectroscopic and electron microscopy techniques. This surface-functionalized nanoparticle (GEM⊂RGD@nZIF-8) exhibited enhanced uptake in human lung cancer cells (A549), compared with non-functionalized GEM⊂nZIF-8. The GEM⊂RGD@nZIF-8, experienced not only efficient uptake within A549, but also induced obvious cytotoxicity (75% at a concentration of 10 μg mL-1) and apoptosis (62%) after 48 h treatment when compared to the nanoparticle absent of the RGD homing system (GEM⊂nZIF-8). Most importantly, this surface-functionalized nanoparticle was more selective towards lung cancer cells (A549) than normal human lung fibroblast cells (MRC-5) with a selectivity index (SI) of 3.98. This work demonstrates a new one-pot strategy for realizing a surface-functionalized zeolitic imidazolate framework that actively targets cancer cells via an autonomous homing peptide system to deliver a chemotherapeutic payload effectively.

Abstract
In recent years, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been widely used in the field of electrochemical energy storage and conversion because of their excellent properties, such as high specific surface area, adjustable pore size, high porosity, structural diversity, and functional controllability. This paper reviews the applications of metal-organic framework-derived composites such as nitrogen-doped carbon, transition metal sulfides, transition metal selenides, transition metal phosphides and metal selenium compound modifications in potassium ion batteries (PIBs) as anode electrode materials. A variety of MOF-derived composites with different structures and morphologies based on several types of ligands, including 2-methylimidazole, aromatic carboxylic acids, and ferricyanide, have been discussed. Moreover, the current challenges faced by MOF-derived materials and possible countermeasures are proposed.

Abstract
Exploration of an efficient dual-drug based nanocarrier with high drug loading capacity, specific targeting properties, and long-term stability is highly desirable in cancer therapy. Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have proven to be a promising class of drug carriers due to their high porosity, crystalline properties with defined structure information, and their potential for further functionalization. To enhance the drug efficacy as well as to overcome the burst effect of drugs, here we synthesized a pH responsive folic acid (FA) and graphene oxide (GO) decorated zeolitical imidazolate frameworks-8 (GO–FA/ZIF-8), for targeted delivery of doxorubicin (DOX) and cyclophosphamide (CP), simultaneously. In this system, DOX molecules were encapsulated in the pores of ZIF-8 during in situ synthesis of ZIF-8 and CP molecules have been captured by the GO surface via hydrogen bonding and π–π interactions as well. Furthermore, the resulting pH-responsive nanocarrier (DOX@ZIF-8/GO–FA/CP) showed in vitro sustained release characteristics (76% of DOX and 80% of CP) by cleavage of chemical bonding and disruption of the MOFs structure under acidic condition (at pH 5.6). Moreover, DOX@ZIF-8/GO–FA/CP has synergistic cytotoxic effects as compared to the combination of both the drugs without ZIF-8/GO–FA when treating MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell lines (with a combination index of 0.29 and 0.75 for MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cell-lines, respectively). Hence this system can be applied as an effective platform for smart dual drug delivery in breast cancer treatment through its remarkable manageable multidrug release. Exploration of an efficient dual-drug based nanocarrier with high drug loading capacity, specific targeting properties, and long-term stability is highly desirable in cancer therapy.![]()

Abstract
Due to the extreme pore volume and valuable surface area, zeolitic imidazole frameworks (ZIFs) are promising vehicles that enhance the delivery of therapeutic agents to tissues. Furthermore, these nanoporous materials have high stability in the pH and temperature of the surrounding healthy cells (37 °C and pH = 7) and an exotic potential to deform in carcinogenic environment (T > 37 °C and pH ∼ 5.5), which make them perfect smart drug delivery vehicle candidates. In this work, a series of molecular dynamics (MD) and metadynamics simulations have been performed to gain molecular insight into the mechanisms involved in the process of co-loading of doxorubicin (DOX) and EpiGalloCatechin-3 Gallate (EGCG) on ZIF-8, which form a smart drug delivery system (SDDS). The obtained results revealed that DOX was adsorbed on the carrier mostly through electrostatic interactions (Ecoul = ∼−1200 kJ mol−1, Etot = −1700 kJ mol−1), and EGCG was stacked on ZIF-8 mainly via van der Waals interactions (EL-J = ∼−600 kJ mol−1, Etot = ∼−1200 kJ mol−1). It is worth mentioning that the drug–drug L-J interactions (EL-J = ∼500 kJ mol−1) were also important in the co-loading process. The insertion of DOX and EGCG as additive agents to the initial ZIF-8/EGCG and ZIF-8/DOX systems led to the enhancement of the drug–carrier pair interactions to about ∼−2300 kJ mol−1 and ∼−2000 kJ mol−1, respectively. This finding implied that the drug–drug interactions had a complementary role in the development of SDDS via ZIF-8. From the metadynamics simulation, it was found that the geometry of the drugs is a determining factor in an efficient co-loading SDDS. Adsorption free energy of a molecule depends on where and how the molecule meets ZIF-8 surface.![]()

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Doxorubicin is a common apoptotic chemotherapeutic which has shown an obvious inhibitory effect in cancer chemotherapy. Here, cucurbit[n]urils (n = 7,10) have been proposed as a doxorubicin carrier, and the effects of diameter, protonation on loading and releasing of the anticancer drug doxorubicin has been studied. METHODS The Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculation and Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulation are performed to study the adsorption process of the (guest) Doxorubicin molecule in the neutral and protonated states within the (host) cucurbit[n]urils (n = 7,10). RESULTS DFT results show that the adsorption process in water is thermodynamically favorable. It is found that the binding energies for protonated drug encapsulation in cucurbit[n]urils are weaker than those of the neutral drug, implying the protonation of doxorubicin can promote the drug release from the adsorption situation. The electron density values and their Laplacian are evaluated to identify the nature of the intermolecular interactions through the topological parameters using the Bader's theory of atoms in molecules. Furthermore, the natural bond orbital analysis shows that the electrons aretransferred from cucurbit[n]urils to drug in all complexes. MD simulation results indicate that value of drug diffusion coefficient is small, therefore, we expect DOX to be slowly released from the CB cavity. CONCLUSIONS Based on obtained results, cucurbit[n]urils may be a prominent nano-carrier to loading and release drug on to target cells.

Abstract
Exploring catalysts with low cost and excellent performance for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is still a significant challenge. In this work, zeolitic imidazolate framework 8 (ZIF-8), hybridized with polyvinylpyrrolidone, was used to prepare Zn, Ni co-loaded N-doped porous carbon (ZnNi/NPC) via a straightforward absorption and pyrolysis process. The as-prepared ZnNi/NPC was used as a catalyst for the HER. This experiment showed that the porous structure and Ni doping have a significant influence on the HER activity of the catalyst. Compared with Zn/NC and Zn/NPC, ZnNi/NPC exhibits superior HER activity with an overpotential of 198 mV and a Tafel slope of 69.2 mV dec-1. ZnNi/NPC also shows excellent physical and chemical stability during the HER process. Considering the lower cost and excellent HER performance of ZnNi/NPC, this work provides an attractive solution to fabricate non-precious materials and offers a possible new strategy to replace Pt-based electrocatalysts for HER.

Abstract
Systemic chemotherapy for treating tumors often leads to serious systemic side effects and affects patient compliance. Although the emerging technology of drug delivery systems (DDSs) can deliver the required cargo to tumor sites, DDSs are limited due to insufficient targeting ability or deficient pharmacokinetics. Herein, we assembled a novel targeting DDS for precision tumor therapy by applying a tumor-targeting polypeptide cyclic RGD (cRGD)-modified erythrocyte membrane (eM-cRGD) cloaked on zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) nanoparticles (NPs) with encapsulated doxorubicin (DOX). For a mass ratio of ZIF-8:DOX = 1:1, the loading capacity was up to 49%. The nanoscale-sized targeting DDS promoted NP accumulation in tumor tissues via enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effects, and the NPs actively targeted ligands and were then transferred to endosomes. The pH-sensitive carriers released higher DOX levels under the low pH mimicking that of a tumor microenvironment and tumor intracellular organelles, allowing enhanced inhibition of cancer cell growth. The cumulative release rate of DOX from DOX@ZIF-8 NPs reached 82.8% at 48 h in acidic conditions of pH = 5.0, while the cumulative release rate of DOX from the DOX@ZIF-8 NPs reached only 24.92% at pH = 7.4. The internalization of the DDS was approximately 44.35% that of the unmodified DDS by immune cells, as confirmed by flow cytometry. In vivo studies verified that the RGD-modified DDS had the ability to prolong blood circulation (t1/2 = 6.81 h), enhancing the tumor-specific accumulation of NPs by means of the integrin αvβ3 receptor-mediated pathway, which was further valuated in mice bearing human cervical cancer (HeLa) cells, and yielding a significant antitumor effect; the tumor inhibition rate was as high as 85.46%. Under the same conditions, the blood circulation half-life of the unmodified DDS was only 3.22 h, and the tumor inhibition rate of free DOX was 81.34%. Moreover, the RGD modified with a carrier could achieve a satisfactory chemotherapeutic effect while minimizing side effects. In summary, our novel targeting DDS could contribute to the development of intelligent DDSs for tumor precision therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) is a major public health problem in the world. One of the highly effective drugs in anti-HIV therapy is efavirenz (EFZ), which is classified as Class II according to the Classification System of Biopharmaceuticals, presenting low solubility and high permeability, this being an obstacle related to the drug. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to obtain an innovative system based on EFZ and the Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework (ZIF-8) to use in the development of prolonged-release pharmaceutical forms that can circumvent this problem. METHODS The EFZ: ZIF-8 system was obtained by a selected ex-situ method due to its higher incorporation efficiency. Different characterization techniques corroborated the obtainment of the system, and drug release was analyzed by dissolution testing under sink conditions, the profiles being adjusted to some kinetic models. RESULTS At pH 1.2, the structure of ZIF-8 breaks down rapidly, releasing a large amount of drug within either 3h or short time. In the pH 4.5 and 6.8 medium, the EFZ release from the EFZ: ZIF-8 system obtained in ethanol was prolonged, releasing 95% of the drug in 24h at pH 4.5 and 75% medium at pH 6.8. CONCLUSION It is evident that a promising pH-sensitive system was obtained using ZIF-8 as a novel carrier of EFZ intended for the alternative treatment of AIDS.

Abstract
The extensive and diversified applications of the well-known plasmonic nanoparticle systems along with their easy and environment-friendly synthesis strategies drive us to investigate in-depth this important research field. In the current scenario, our present study deals with an important plasmonic nanomaterial, i.e., globular protein, and human serum albumin (HSA)-conjugated gold nanoparticle (HSA-Au NP) system. The well-known chemical denaturants, urea and guanidine hydrochloride (GdnHCl or GnHCl), are investigated to show detrimental effects toward the formation of gold nanoparticles; however, the effect of GdnHCl is observed to be much prominent compared to that of urea. The synthesized nanoparticle system is found to be highly biocompatible from the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT)-based cytotoxicity assay, and therefore, the applications of encapsulation of the well-known anticancer drug molecule, doxorubicin hydrochloride (Dox), in the nanoparticle system are further studied. In this drug encapsulation study, drug-metal complexation between Dox and HAuCl4·3H2O has been discussed elaborately. Similar to the nanoparticle formation, the effects of denaturants on drug encapsulation have also been discovered, and interestingly, it has been observed that urea plays a positive role, whereas GdnHCl plays a negative or detrimental role toward drug encapsulation in the synthesized gold nanoparticle system. The detailed photophysical mechanisms behind the drug encapsulation in the synthesized plasmonic nanosystem at every stage have also been explored. Overall, this study will conclusively explain the influences of the extensively used chemical denaturants on the synthesis and drug encapsulation behaviors of a well-known protein-conjugated gold nanoparticle, and as a consequence, it can be highly useful and acceptable to the biomedical and pharmaceutical research communities.
