Abstract
Harnessing the power of cell biocatalysis for sustainable chemical synthesis requires rational integration of living cells with the modern synthetic catalysts. Here, we develop silica-tiling strategy that constructs a hierarchical, inorganic, protocellular confined nanospace around the individual living cell to accommodate molecularly accessible abiotic catalytic sites. This empowers the living microorganisms for new-to-nature chemical synthesis without compromising the cellular regenerative process. Yeast cell, a widely used biocatalyst, is upgraded via highly controlled self-assembly of 2D-bilayer silica-based catalytic modules on cell surfaces, opening the avenues for diverse chemobiotic reactions. For example, combining [AuPt]-catalyzed NADH regeneration, light-induced [Pd]-catalyzed C-C cross-coupling or lipase-catalyzed esterification reactions-with the natural ketoreductase activity inside yeast cell. The conformal silica bilayer provides protection while allowing proximity to catalytic sites and preserving natural cell viability and proliferation. These living nanobiohybrids offer to bridge cell's natural biocatalytic capabilities with customizable heterogeneous metal catalysis, enabling programmable reaction sequences for sustainable chemical synthesis.

Abstract
The evolutionary complexity of compartmentalized biostructures (such as cells and organelles) endows life-sustaining multistep chemical cascades and intricate living functionalities. Relatively, within a very short time span, a synthetic paradigm has resulted in tremendous growth in controlling the materials at different length scales (molecular, nano, micro, and macro), improving mechanistic understanding and setting the design principals toward different compositions, configurations, and structures, and in turn fine-tuning their optoelectronic and catalytic properties for targeted applications. Bioorthogonal catalysis offers a highly versatile toolkit for biochemical modulation and the capability to perform new-to-nature reactions inside living systems, endowing augmented functions. However, conventional catalysts have limitations to control the reactions under physiological conditions due to the hostile bioenvironment. The present account details the development of bioapplicable multicomponent designer nanoreactors (NRs), where the compositions, morphologies, interfacial active sites, and microenvironments around different metal nanocatalysts can be precisely controlled by novel nanospace-confined chemistries. Different architectures of porous, hollow, and open-mouth silica-based nano-housings facilitate the accommodation, protection, and selective access of different nanoscale metal-based catalytic sites. The modular porosity/composition, optical transparency, thermal insulation, and nontoxicity of silica are highly useful. Moreover, large macropores or cavities can also be occupied by enzymes (for chemoenzymatic cascades) and selectivity enhancers (for stimuli-responsive gating) along with the metal nanocatalysts. Further, it is crucial to selectively activate and control catalytic reactions by a remotely operable biocompatible energy source. Integration of highly coupled plasmonic (Au) components having few-nanometer structural features (gaps, cavities, and junctions as electromagnetic hot-spots) endows an opportunity to efficiently harness low-power NIR light and selectively supply energy to the interfacial catalytic sites through localized photothermal and electronic effects. Different plasmonically integrated NRs with customizable plasmonic-catalytic components, cavities inside bilayer nanospaces, and metal-laminated nanocrystals inside hollow silica can perform NIR-/light-induced catalytic reactions in complex media including living cells. In addition, magnetothermia-induced NRs by selective growth of catalytic metals on a pre-installed superparamagnetic iron-oxide core inside a hollow-porous silica shell endowed the opportunity to apply AMF as a bioorthogonal stimulus to promote catalytic reactions. By combining "plasmonic-catalytic" and "magnetic-catalytic" components within a single NR, two distinct reaction steps can be desirably controlled by two energy sources (NIR light and AMF) of distinct energy regimes. The capability to perform multistep organic molecular transformations in harmony with the natural living system will reveal novel reaction schemes for in cellulo synthesis of active drug and bioimaging probes. Well-designed nanoscale discrete architectures of NRs can facilitate spatiotemporal control over abiotic chemical synthesis without adversely affecting the cell viability. However, in-depth understanding of heterogeneous surface catalytic reactions, rate induction mechanisms, selectivity control pathways, and targeted nanobio interactions is necessary. The broad field of biomedical engineering can hugely benefit from the aid of novel nanomaterials with chemistry-based designs and the synthesis of engineered NRs performing unique bioorthogonal chemistry functions.

Abstract
Bioorthogonal catalysis, a class of catalytic reactions that are mediated by abiotic metals and proceed in biological environments without interfering with native biochemical reactions, has gained ever-increasing momentum in prodrug delivery over the past few decades. Albeit great progress has been attained in developing new bioorthogonal catalytic reactions and optimizing the catalytic performance of transition metal catalysts (TMCs), the use of TMCs to activate chemotherapeutics at the site of interest in vivo remains a challenging endeavor. To translate the bioorthogonal catalysis-mediated prodrug activation paradigm from flasks to animals, TMCs with targeting capability and stimulus-responsive behavior have been well-designed to perform chemical transformations in a controlled manner within highly complex biochemical systems, rendering on-demand drug activation to mitigate off-target toxicity. Here, we review the recent advances in the development of controllable bioorthogonal catalysis systems, with an emphasis on different strategies for engineering TMCs to achieve precise control over prodrug activation. Furthermore, we outline the envisaged challenges and discuss future directions of controllable bioorthogonal catalysis for disease therapy.

Abstract
ConspectusThe ligand shells of colloidal nanoparticles (NPs) can serve different purposes. In general, they provide colloidal stability by introducing steric repulsion between NPs. In the context of biological applications, the ligand shell plays a critical role in targeting, enabling NPs to achieve specific biodistributions. However, there is also another important feature of the ligand shell of NPs, namely, the creation of a local environment differing from the bulk of the solvent in which the NPs are dispersed. It is known that charged ligand shells can attract or repel ions and change the effective charge of a NP through Debye-Hückel screening. Positively charged ions, such as H+ (or H3O+) are attracted to negatively charged surfaces, whereas negatively charged ions, such as Cl- are repelled. The distribution of the ions around charged NP surfaces is a radial function of distance from the center of the NP, which is governed by a balance of electrostatic forces and entropy of ions and ligands. As a result, the ion concentration at the NP surface is different from its bulk equilibrium concentration, i.e., the charged ligand shell around the NPs has formed a distinct local environment. This not only applies to charged ligand shells but also follows a more general principle of induced condensation and depletion. Polar/apolar ligand shells, for example, result in a locally increased concentration of polar/apolar molecules. Similar effects can be seen for biocatalysts like enzymes immobilized in nanoporous host structures, which provide a special environment due to their surface chemistry and geometrical nanoconfinement. The formation of a local environment close to the ligand shell of NPs has profound implications for NP sensing applications. As a result, analyte concentrations close to the ligand shell, which are the ones that are measured, may be very different from the analyte concentrations in bulk. Based on previous work describing this effect, it will be discussed herein how such local environments, created by the choice of used ligands, may allow for tailoring the NPs' sensing properties. In general, the ligand shell around NPs can be attractive/repulsive for molecules with distinct properties and thus forms an environment that can modulate the specific response. Such local environments can also be optimized to modulate chemical reactions close to the NP surface (for example, by size filtering within pores) or to attract specific low abundance proteins. The importance hereby is that this is based on interaction with low selectivity between the ligands and the target molecules.

Abstract
An azobenzene-bearing N-heterocyclic carbene-based gold catalyst is reported of which the reactivity in a cyclization reaction depends on the isomeric state of the azobenzene. The configurations of the catalyst can be reversibly switched by light and are stable during the reaction, effectively leading to a switchable catalyst system.

Abstract
Bioorthogonal transition metal catalysts (TMCs) transform therapeutically inactive molecules (pro-drugs) into active drug compounds. Inorganic nanoscaffolds protect and solubilize catalysts while offering a flexible design space for decoration with targeting elements and stimuli-responsive activity. These "drug factories" can activate pro-drugs in situ, localizing treatment to the disease site and minimizing off-target effects. Inorganic nanoscaffolds provide structurally diverse scaffolds for encapsulating TMCs. This ability to define the catalyst environment can be employed to enhance the stability and selectivity of the TMC, providing access to enzyme-like bioorthogonal processes. The use of inorganic nanomaterials as scaffolds TMCs and the use of these bioorthogonal nanozymes in vitro and in vivo applications will be discussed in this review.

Abstract
Bioorthogonal chemistry has inspired a new subarea of chemistry providing a powerful tool to perform novel biocompatible chemospecific reactions in living systems. Following the premise that they do not interfere with biological functions, bioorthogonal reactions are increasingly applied in biomedical research, particularly with respect to genetic encoding systems, fluorogenic reactions for bioimaging, and cancer therapy. This Minireview compiles recent advances in the use of heterogeneous catalysts for bioorthogonal reactions. The synthetic strategies of Pd-, Au-, and Cu-based materials, their applicability in the activation of caged fluorophores and prodrugs, and the possibilities of using external stimuli to release therapeutic substances at a specific location in a diseased tissue are discussed. Finally, we highlight frontiers in the field, identifying challenges, and propose directions for future development in this emerging field.

Abstract
Bioorthogonal catalysis mediated by Pd-based transition metal catalysts has sparked increasing interest in combating diseases. However, the catalytic and therapeutic efficiency of current Pd0 catalysts is unsatisfactory. Herein, inspired by the concept that ligands around metal sites could enable enzymes to catalyze astonishing reactions by changing their electronic environment, a LM-Pd catalyst with liquid metal (LM) as an unusual modulator has been designed to realize efficient bioorthogonal catalysis for tumor inhibition. The LM matrix can serve as a "ligand" to afford an electron-rich environment to stabilize the active Pd0 and promote nucleophilic turnover of the π-allylpalladium species to accelerate the uncaging process. Besides, the photothermal properties of LM can lead to the enhanced removal of tumor cells by photo-enhanced catalysis and photothermal effect. We believe that our work will broaden the application of LM and motivate the design of bioinspired bioorthogonal catalysts.

Abstract
Synergy engineering is an important way to enhance the kinetic activity of oxygen-evolution-reaction (OER) electrocatalysts. Here, we fabricated NiFe amorphous nanoreactor (NiFe-ANR) oxide as OER electrocatalysts via a mild self-catalytic reaction. Firstly, the amorphousness helps transform NiFe-ANR into highly active hydroxyhydroxides, and its many fine-grain boundaries increase active sites. More importantly, as proved by experiments and finite element analysis, the nanoreactor structure alters the spatial curvature and the mass transfer over the catalyst, thereby enriching OH- in the catalyst surface and inner part. Thus, the catalyst with the structure of amorphous nanoreactors gained excellent activity, far superior to the NiFe catalyst with the structure of crystalline nanoreactor or amorphous non-nanoreactor. This work provides new insights into the applications and mechanisms of amorphousness and nanoreactors, embodying the "1+1>2" synergy of crystalline state and morphology.

Abstract
The design of smart nanoplatforms presenting well-definite structures able to achieve controlled cascade action remotely triggered by external stimuli presents a great challenge. We report here a new nanosystem consisting of magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles covalently grafted with a thermosensitive radical initiator alkoxyamine, able to provide controlled and localized release of free radicals triggered by an alternating current (ac) magnetic field. These nanoparticles exhibit a high intrinsic loss power of 4.73 nHm2 kg-1 providing rapid heating of their surface under the action of an ac field, inducing the homolysis of alkoxyamine C-ON bond and then the oxygen-independent formation of radicals. This latter was demonstrated by electronic paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy, and the kinetics of homolysis has been investigated allowing a comparison of the temperature of alkoxyamine's homolysis with the one measured during the magnetothermia process.

Abstract
In tandem catalytic systems, controlling the reaction steps and side reactions is extremely challenging. Here, we demonstrate a nanoreactor platform comprising magnetic- and plasmonic-coupled catalytic modules that synchronizes reaction steps at unconnected neighboring reaction sites via decoupled nanolocalized energy harvested using distinct antennae reactors while minimizing the interconflicting effects. As was desired, the course of the reaction and product yields can be controlled by a convenient remote operation of alternating magnetic field (AMF) and near-infrared light (NIR). Following this strategy, a tandem reaction involving [Pd]-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura C-C cross-coupling and [Pt]-catalyzed aerobic alcohol oxidation enabled an excellent yield of cinnamaldehyde (ca. 95%) by overcoming the risk of side reactions. The customization scope for using different catalytic metals (Pt, Pd, Ru, and Rh) with in situ control over product release through remotely operable benign energy sources opens avenues for designing diverse catalytic schemes for targeted applications.

Abstract
As one of the representative bioorthogonal reactions, the copper-catalyzed click reaction provides a promising approach for in situ prodrug activation in cancer treatment. To solve the issue of inherent toxicity of Cu(i), biocompatible heterogeneous copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) were developed for the Cu-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction. However, the unsatisfactory catalytic activity and off-target effect still hindered their application in biological systems. Herein, we constructed a DNAzyme-augmented and targeted bioorthogonal catalyst for synergistic cancer therapy. The system could present specificity to cancer cells and promote the generation of Cu(i) via DNAzyme-induced value state conversion of DNA-templated ultrasmall CuNPs upon exposure to endogenous H2O2, thereby leading to high catalytic activity for in situ drug synthesis. Meanwhile, DNAzyme could produce radical species to damage cancer cells. The synergy of in situ drug synthesis and chemodynamic therapy exhibited excellent anti-cancer effects and minimal side effects. The study offers a simple and novel avenue to develop highly efficient and safe bioorthogonal catalysts for biological applications.

Abstract
Nanoreactors for scavenging reactive oxygen species (ROS), a major factor in inflammatory diseases, can reduce overproduced ROS, and thus can prevent further progress of the diseases or facilitate the regeneration of damaged inflamed tissues. Herein, we designed a pluronic-based nanocarrier loaded with dual antioxidant enzymes present in vivo (superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT)) as a nanoreactor system for the regeneration of inflammatory tissue. The catalytic activity of each enzyme was enhanced by loading it into the nanocarrier. More importantly, the nanocarrier could enhance the cascade reaction between SOD and CAT, which converts the superoxide anion to oxygen. The synergistic anti-inflammatory effect of the nanoreactor based on the cascade reaction was verified in vitro. Furthermore, in an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) mouse model, the dual enzyme (SOD/CAT)-loaded nanocarrier could result in significantly enhanced tissue regeneration and notably alleviated inflammation activities upon intravenous administration of them compared to other control groups, including single enzyme (SOD or CAT)-loaded nanocarrier and the free mixture of both enzymes without the nanocarrier. Thus, the efficacy of the nanoreactor for the cascade reaction on tissue regeneration in vivo was proved. Accordingly, the nanoreactor could be applied for tissue regeneration therapy against various inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Liver fibrosis is challenging to treat because of the lack of effective agents worldwide. Recently, we have developed a novel compound, N-(3,4,5-trichlorophenyl)-2(3-nitrobenzenesulfonamido) benzamide referred to as IMB16-4. However, its poor aqueous solubility and poor oral bioavailability obstruct the drug discovery programs. To increase the dissolution, improve the oral bioavailability and enhance the antifibrotic activity of IMB16-4, PVPK30 was selected to establish the IMB16-4 nanoparticles. Drug release behavior, oral bioavailability, and anti-hepatic fibrosis effects of IMB16-4 nanoparticles were evaluated. The results showed that IMB16-4 nanoparticles greatly increased the dissolution rate of IMB16-4. The oral bioavailability of IMB16-4 nanoparticles was improved 26-fold compared with that of pure IMB16-4. In bile duct ligation rats, IMB16-4 nanoparticles significantly repressed hepatic fibrogenesis and improved the liver function. These findings indicate that IMB16-4 nanoparticles will provide information to expand a novel anti-hepatic fibrosis agent.

Abstract
Hybrid systems composed of living cells and nanomaterials have been attracting great interest in various fields of research ranging from materials science to biomedicine. In particular, the interfacing of noble metal nanoparticles and bacterial cells in a single architecture aims to generate hybrid systems that combine the unique physicochemical properties of the metals and biological attributes of the microbial cells. While the bacterial cells provide effector and scaffolding functions, the metallic component endows the hybrid system with multifunctional capabilities. This synergistic effort seeks to fabricate living materials with improved functions and new properties that surpass their individual components. Herein, we provide an overview of this research field and the strategies for obtaining hybrid systems, and we summarize recent biological applications, challenges and current prospects in this exciting new arena.

Abstract
Bioorthogonal chemistry refers to any chemical reactions that can occur inside of living systems without interfering with native biochemical processes, which has become a promising strategy for modulating biological processes. The development of synthetic metal-based catalysts to perform bioorthogonal reactions has significantly expanded the toolkit of bioorthogonal chemistry for medicinal chemistry and synthetic biology. A wide range of homogeneous and heterogeneous transition metal catalysts (TMCs) have been reported, mediating different transformations such as cycloaddition reactions, as well as bond forming and cleaving reactions. However, the direct application of 'naked' TMCs in complex biological media poses numerous challenges, including poor water solubility, toxicity and catalyst deactivation. Incorporating TMCs into nanomaterials to create bioorthogonal nanocatalysts can solubilize and stabilize catalyst molecules, with the decoration of the nanocatalysts used to provide spatiotemporal control of catalysis. This review presents an overview of the advances in the creation of bioorthogonal nanocatalysts, highlighting different choice of nano-scaffolds, and the therapeutic and diagnostic applications.

Abstract
Despite the enormous application potential, methods for conformal few-atomic-layer deposition on colloidal nanocrystals (NCs) are scarce. Similar to the process of lamination, we introduce a "confine and shine" strategy to homogeneously modify the different surface curvatures of plasmonic NCs with ultrathin conformal layers of diverse catalytic noble metals. This self-limited epitaxial skinlike metal growth harvests the localized surface plasmon resonance to induce reduction chemistry directly on the NC surface, confined inside hollow silica. This strategy avoids any kinetic anisotropic metal deposition. Unlike the conventional thick, anisotropic, and dendritic shells, which show severe nonradiative damping, the skinlike metal lamination preserves the key plasmonic properties of the core NCs. Consequently, the plasmonic-catalytic hybrid nanoreactors can carry out a variety of organic reactions with impressive rates.

Abstract
Nanodevices, harvesting the power of synthetic catalysts and enzymes to perform enantioselective synthesis inside cell, have never been reported. Here, we synthesized round bottom jar-like silica nanostructures (SiJARs) with a chemo-responsive metal-silicate lid. This was isolated as an intermediate structure during highly controlled solid-state nanocrystal-conversion at the arc-section of silica shell. Different catalytic noble metals (Pt, Pd, Ru) were selectively modified on the lid-section through galvanic reactions. And, lid aperture-opening was regulated by mild acidic conditions or intracellular environment which accommodated the metal nanocrystals and enzymes, and in turn created an open-mouth nanoreactor. Distinct from the free enzymes, SiJARs performed asymmetric aldol reactions with high activity and enantioselectivity (yield >99 %, ee=95 %) and also functioned as the artificial catalytic organelles inside living cells. This work bridges the enormous potential of sophisticated nanocrystal-conversion chemistry and advanced platforms for new-to-nature catalysis.

Abstract
Porous silica particles have shown applications in various technological fields including their use as catalyst supports in heterogeneous catalysis. The mesoporous silica particles have ordered porosity, high surface area, and good chemical stability. These interesting structural or textural properties make porous silica an attractive material for use as catalyst supports in various heterogeneous catalysis reactions. The colloidal nature of the porous silica particles is highly useful in catalytic applications as it guarantees better mass transfer properties and uniform distribution of the various metal or metal oxide nanocatalysts in solution. The catalysts show high activity, low degree of metal leaching, and ease in recycling when supported or immobilized on porous silica-based materials. In this overview, we have pointed out the importance of porous silica as catalyst supports. A variety of chemical reactions catalyzed by different catalysts loaded or embedded in porous silica supports are studied. The latest reports from the literature about the use of porous silica-based materials as catalyst supports are listed and analyzed. The new and continued trends are discussed with examples.
