[PMID: 38718655 DOI: 10.1016/j.watres.2024.121649] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/19/2023] [Revised: 04/04/2024] [Accepted: 04/19/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024]
Abstract
In this study, the distribution and toxicity of nanoscale zero valent iron (nZVI) and nZVIs coated with citric acid and sodium tripolyphosphate (CA-nZVI and STPP-nZVI) in mice were investigated. nZVIs were primarily found in the livers and spleens, followed by the lungs, hearts, and kidneys. Histologic analysis revealed no significant histopathologic abnormalities or lesions in all organs except the liver at 14th d gavage. nZVIs did not have a noticeable impact on the body weight of the mice or the weight of their organs. Compared with the control group, there were no significant changes in hematology indexes in the nZVIs groups. However, the nZVIs groups exhibited varying levels of elevation in alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, and creatinine, suggesting liver and kidney inflammation in mice. The up-regulation of Nuclear Factor erythroid 2-Related Factor 2 and Heme oxygenase 1 in the nZVIs groups may be a response to nZVIs-induced oxidative stress. Immunohistochemical analysis confirmed the inflammatory response induced by the three nZVI groups. Chelating agents did not have a significant impact on the distribution or toxicity of nZVIs in mice. This study contributes to a comprehensive and detailed insight into nZVI toxicity in the environmental field.

Abstract
Due to their good magnetic properties, excellent biocompatibility, and low price, magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) are the most commonly used magnetic nanomaterials and have been extensively explored in biomedical applications. Although magnetic IONPs can be used for a variety of applications in biomedicine, most practical applications require IONP-based platforms that can perform several tasks in parallel. Thus, appropriate engineering and integration of magnetic IONPs with different classes of organic and inorganic materials can produce multifunctional nanoplatforms that can perform several functions simultaneously, allowing their application in a broad spectrum of biomedical fields. This review article summarizes the fabrication of current composite nanoplatforms based on integration of magnetic IONPs with organic dyes, biomolecules (e.g., lipids, DNAs, aptamers, and antibodies), quantum dots, noble metal NPs, and stimuli-responsive polymers. We also highlight the recent technological advances achieved from such integrated multifunctional platforms and their potential use in biomedical applications, including dual-mode imaging for biomolecule detection, targeted drug delivery, photodynamic therapy, chemotherapy, and magnetic hyperthermia therapy.

Abstract
Combining iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe3O4 NPs) and gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) in one nanostructure is a promising technique for various applications. Fe3O4 NPs have special supermagnetic attributes that allow them to be applied in different areas, and Au NPs stand out in biomaterials due to their oxidation resistance, chemical stability, and unique optical properties. Recent studies have generally defined the physicochemical properties of nanostructures without concentrating on a particular formation strategy. This detailed review provides a summary of the latest research on the formation strategy and applications of Fe3O4@Au. The diverse methods of synthesis of Fe3O4@Au NPs with different basic organic and inorganic improvements are introduced. The role and applicability of Au coating on the surface of Fe3O4 NPs schemes were explored. The 40 most relevant publications were identified and reviewed. The versatility of combining Fe3O4@Au NPs as an option for medical application is proven in catalysis, hyperthermia, biomedical imaging, drug delivery and protein separation.

J Nanobiotechnology 2021; 19:195.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The biomedical field has used gold nanorods (GNRs) for decades; however, clinical trials and translation is limited except gold nanoshells. The preparation of gold nanoshells is more complex than that of polyethylene glycol-modified GNRs (PEG-GNRs), and it is difficult to ensure uniform thickness. It is important to encourage and broaden the use of the star member (PEG-GNRs) of gold nanoparticles family for clinical translation. Existing studies on PEG-GNRs are limited with no relevant systematic progression in non-human primates. Herein, we assessed the systematic biocompatibility of PEG-GNRs in rats and clinically relevant Macaca fascicularis. RESULTS In this small animal study, we administrated multiple doses of PEG-GNRs to rats and observed good biocompatibility. In the non-human primate study, PEG-GNRs had a longer blood half-life and produced a negligible immune response. Histological analysis revealed no significant abnormality. CONCLUSIONS PEG-GNRs were well-tolerated with good biocompatibility in both small animals and large non-human primates. The information gained from the comprehensive systemic toxicity assessment of PEG-GNRs in M. fascicularis will be helpful for translation to clinical trials.

Abstract
A novel multi-stimuli-responsive theranostic nanomedicine was designed and fabricated by the conjugation of a thiol end-capped poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-block-acrylic acid) (HS-PNIPAAm-b-PAA) onto Fe3O4@Au nanoparticles (NPs) followed by physical loading of doxorubicin hydrochloride (Dox) as a general anticancer drug. For this purpose, Fe3O4@Au NPs were fabricated through small Au nanolayer grown on larger magnetic NPs. A HS-PNIPAAm-b-PAA was synthesized through an atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) approach, and then conjugated with as-synthesized Fe3O4@Au NPs by Au-S bonding. The Dox loading capacity of the synthesized Fe3O4@Au/Polymer theranostic NPs was calculated to be 81%. The theranostic nanomedicine exhibited excellent in vitro drug release behavior under pH and thermal stimuli. The anticancer activity evaluation using MTT assay (against MCF7 cells) revealed that the fabricated Fe3O4@Au/Polymer has high potential as theranostic nanomedicine for cancer therapy of solid tumors. This nanosystem can also applied in photothermal therapy, hyperthermia therapy, and their combination with chemotherapy due to presence of gold and Fe3O4 nanomaterials in its structure.

Abstract
The assembly of nanoparticle into electrodes with precise structure and uniform core sizes is important for electrocatalysis. In this study, we reported on a simple strategy for in-situ preparation of gold nanoparticles embedded D-sorbitol hydrogel (D-gel@AuNPs). D-sorbitol hydrogel with acyl hydrazide (D-gel) was synthesized and characterized. AuNP's stable electronic structure, high surface coverage and good conductivity was achieved enabled D-gel@AuNPs exhibits the enhanced electrocatalytic performance. The electrochemical results reveal that the catalytic progress is highly promoted by the D-gel@AuNPs with a detection limit of 0.067 mM and detection range of 0.1-30 mM. The high enzymatic activity and stability provide the high possibility for the development of high value glucose sensors. This mechanistically novel strategy expands the scope of assembly of NPs method for the development of enhanced other electrochemical properties such as amperometric sensing and photcatalysis applications, as well as electrocatalysis.
