Abstract
Due to their rapid spread, high variability, and drug-resistant strains, new viral infections are continuously emerging. A lack of effective antiviral drugs and vaccines, resulting in disease and death, has significant socioeconomic consequences. Hemoperfusion can effectively adsorb and remove toxins from the blood, thus purifying the blood and serving as an acute treatment. Therefore, the aim of this study was to construct adsorbents to selectively remove viruses from the blood to quickly treat pathogen infection. We reported on new metal-organic framework (MOF)-polymer beads based on MIL-53(Al) and cellulose acetate (CNC), which were prepared by a one-step phase inversion method and applied as a viral hemo-adsorbent for the first time. The characterization results demonstrated that MIL-53(Al) was well dispersed in the CNC matrix. The adsorption results demonstrated that the capture efficiency of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) could exceed 99.93%, and the corresponding infectious titer decreased by approximately 103 times in clinical application. Moreover, CNC/MIL-53 exhibited low hemolysis ratios and good anticoagulant properties. Furthermore, molecular dynamics simulations revealed that the interplay of hydrogen bonding was the governing physisorption mechanism. Overall, CNC/MIL-53 could serve as a new type of hemoperfusion adsorbent for virus removal from blood and provide a new treatment pathway to mitigate epidemics.

Abstract
2D transition metal carbides and nitrides, i.e., MXene, are recently attracting wide attentions and presenting competitive performances as adsorbents used in hemoperfusion. Nonetheless, the nonporous texture and easily restacking feature limit the efficient adsorption of toxin molecules inside MXene and between layers. To circumvent this concern, here a plerogyra sinuosa biomimetic porous titanium carbide MXene (P-Ti3C2) is reported. The hollow and hierarchically porous structure with large surface area benefits the maximum access of toxins as well as trapping them inside the spherical cavity. The cambered surface of P-Ti3C2 prevents layers restacking, thus affording better interlaminar adsorption. In addition to enhanced toxin removal ability, the P-Ti3C2 is found to selectively adsorb more middle and large toxin molecules than small toxin molecules. It possibly originates from the rich Ti-deficient vacancies in the P-MXene lattice that increases the affinity with middle/large toxin molecules. Also, the vacancies as active sites facilitate the production of reactive oxygen under NIR irradiation to promote the photodynamic antibacterial performance. Then, the versatility of P-MXene is validated by extension to niobium carbide (P-Nb2C). And the simulated hemoperfusion proves the practicability of the P-MXene as polymeric adhesives-free adsorbents to eliminate the broad-spectrum toxins.

Abstract
Blood purification, such as hemodialysis (HD), plasma exchange (PE), and hemoperfusion (HP), is widely applied in patients with organ failure (such as kidney and liver failure). Among them, HP mainly relies on porous adsorbents to efficiently adsorb accumulated metabolic wastes and toxins, thus improving purification efficiency. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), with a high porosity, large surface area, high loading capacity, and tailorable topology, are emerging as some of the most promising materials for HP. Compared with non-metal framework counterparts, the self-built metal centers of MOFs feature the intrinsic advantages of coordination with toxin molecules. However, research on MOFs in blood purification is insufficient, particularly in contrast to materials applied in other biomedical applications. Thus, to broaden this area, this review first discusses the essential characteristics, potential mechanisms, and structure-function relationship between MOFs and toxin adsorption based on porosity, topology, ligand functionalization, metal centers, and toxin types. Moreover, the stability, utilization safety, and hemocompatibility of MOFs are illustrated for adsorbent selection. The current development and progress in MOF composites for HD, HP, and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) are also summarized to highlight their practicability. Finally, we propose future opportunities and challenges from materials design and manufacture to the computational prediction of MOFs in blood purification. It is anticipated that our review will expand the interest of researchers for more impact in this area.

Abstract
Supramolecular self-assembly of low molecular weight molecules into various organic nanostructures has attracted considerable research interest. However, preparing organic nanostructures through a top-down method, such as the disassembly of one large structure into many smaller nanoscale nanostructures, still remains a big challenge. Here, we make use of anti-solvent method to regulate the hierarchical self-assembly of an achiral C3-symmetric molecule in THF/water to prepare various nanostructures, including spherical structures, nanofibers, nanoribbons and nanotwists. Interestingly, the spherical structures could disassemble into nanohelices through good solvent dilution, providing a nanoscale top-down method to prepare organic nanostructures.

Abstract
Herein, we report a straightforward strategy to construct reusable, hemocompatible, and highly efficient bilirubin adsorbents by installing zwitterionic modules into a porous organic polymer (POP) for hemoperfusion application. Three types of zwitterions with different amounts are used to evaluate their impacts on the characteristics of POPs, including carboxybetaine methacrylate (CB), sulfobetaine methacrylate (SB), and 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (MPC). Results show that zwitterions can improve hemocompatibility, hydrophilicity, and bilirubin uptake of the POP. Among all zwitterionic POPs, POP-CB-40% exhibits the best bilirubin uptake, ∼46.5 times enhancement compared with the non-zwitterionic POP in 100% serum. This enhancement can be attributed to the improved hydrophilicity and protein resistance ability in biological solutions. More importantly, the reusability test shows that POP-CB-40% maintains ∼99% of bilirubin uptake capacity at fifth recycling in 100% serum. Findings in this work provide a guideline for the design of biocompatible and efficient POP-based bilirubin adsorbents for hemoperfusion therapy.

Abstract
Excessive accumulation of bilirubin in patients with hyperbilirubinemia can lead to tissue and organ damage and neurological diseases, and is even life-threatening in severe cases. Hemoperfusion is an effective method for removing bilirubin, but clinically used hemoperfusion adsorbents have unsatisfactory adsorption capacity and kinetics. In order to obtain a safe and efficient bilirubin adsorbent, Zr-based Metal-Organic Framework (MOF) material UiO-66 with high specific surface area and aqueous medium stability was prepared and modified with varying degrees of amination to improve its adsorption capacity. According to adsorption experiments in aqueous solution and simulated plasma, it was confirmed that the unsaturated coordinated zirconium in UiO-66 can effectively induce the aggregation and precipitation of free bilirubin unbound to albumin and the amino group on UiO-66-NH2 has a strong affinity for albumin bound bilirubin. The adsorption effect of UiO-66-NH2 with a high degree of amino modification is significantly stronger than that of UiO-66-NH2 with a low degree of modification. In simulated plasma with a bilirubin concentration of 40 mg dL-1, the adsorption capacities of UiO-66 and UiO-66-NH2-1.9 can reach 69.08 mg g-1 and 81.13 mg g-1. The adsorption isotherm fitting and adsorption kinetics fitting results also show that UiO-66 and UiO-66-NH2 are good adsorbents for bilirubin. In dynamic adsorption, the adsorbents also showed good performance and did not affect the protein in the plasma. The hemolysis test, coagulation time test, and cytotoxicity test confirmed that the bilirubin adsorbents based on UiO-66 and UiO-66-NH2 have good blood compatibility and biocompatibility. This study provides new ideas for the development of a novel bilirubin adsorbent and a theoretical basis for the study of bilirubin adsorption mechanisms.

Abstract
Biocompatible adsorbents play an essential role in hemoperfusion. Nevertheless, there are no hemoperfusion adsorbents that can simultaneously remove small and medium toxins, including bilirubin, urea, phosphor, heavy metals, and antibiotics. This bottleneck significantly impedes the miniaturization and portability of hemoperfusion materials and devices. Herein, a biocompatible protein-polysaccharide complex is reported that exhibits "multi-in-one" removal efficacy for liver and kidney metabolism wastes, toxic metal ions, and antibiotics. Through electrostatic interactions and polysaccharide-mediated coacervation, adsorbents can be prepared by simply mixing lysozyme (LZ) and sodium alginate (SA) together in seconds. The LZ/SA absorbent presented high adsorption capacities for bilirubin, urea, and Hg2+ of up to 468, 331, and 497 mg g-1 , respectively, and the excellent anti-protein adsorption endowed LZ/SA with a record-high adsorption capacity for bilirubin in the interference of serum albumin to simulate the physiological environment. The LZ/SA adsorbent also has effective adsorption capacity for heavy metals (Pb2+ , Cu2+ , Cr3+ , and Cd2+ ) and multiple antibiotics (terramycin, tetracycline, enrofloxacin, norfloxacin, roxithromycin, erythromycin, sulfapyrimidine, and sulfamethoxazole). Various adsorption functional groups exposed on the adsorbent surface significantly contribute to the excellent adsorption capacity. This fully bio-derived protein/alginate-based hemoperfusion adsorbent has great application prospects in the treatment of blood-related diseases.

Abstract
Nucleic acid plays a crucial role in countless biological processes. Hence, there is great interest in its detection and analysis in various fields from chemistry, biology, to medicine. Nanoporous crystalline materials exhibit enormous potential as an effective platform for nucleic acid recognition and application. These materials have highly ordered and uniform pore structures, as well as adjustable surface chemistry and pore size, making them good carriers for nucleic acid extraction, detection, and delivery. In this review, the latest developments in nanoporous crystalline materials, including metal organic frameworks (MOFs), covalent organic frameworks (COFs), and supramolecular organic frameworks (SOFs) for nucleic acid recognition and applications are discussed. Different strategies for functionalizing these materials are explored to specifically identify nucleic acid targets. Their applications in selective separation and detection of nucleic acids are highlighted. They can also be used as DNA/RNA sensors, gene delivery agents, host DNAzymes, and in DNA-based computing. Other applications include catalysis, data storage, and biomimetics.

Abstract
Currently, hemoperfusion is clinically the most rapid and effective treatment for removing toxins from the blood. The core of hemoperfusion is the sorbent inside the hemoperfusion device. Due to the complex composition of the blood, adsorbents tend to adsorb substances such as proteins in the blood (non-specific adsorption) while adsorbing toxins. Hyperbilirubinemia is caused by excessive levels of bilirubin in the human blood, causing irreversible damage to the patient's brain and nervous system, and even leading to death. High adsorption and high biocompatibility adsorbents with specific bilirubin adsorption are urgently needed to treat hyperbilirubinemia. Herein, poly(L-arginine) (PLA) which can specifically adsorb bilirubin, was introduced into chitin/MXene (Ch/MX) composite aerogel spheres. Ch/MX/PLA prepared by supercritical CO2 technology had higher mechanical properties than Ch/MX and can withstand 50,000 times its own weight. The in vitro simulated hemoperfusion test showed that the adsorption capacity of Ch/MX/PLA was as high as 596.31 mg/g, which was 15.38 % higher than that of Ch/MX. Binary and ternary competitive adsorption tests showed that Ch/MX/PLA also had good adsorption capacity in the presence of a variety of interfering molecules. In addition, hemolysis rate testing and CCK-8 testing confirmed that Ch/MX/PLA had better biocompatibility and hemocompatibility. Ch/MX/PLA can meet the required properties of clinical hemoperfusion sorbents and has the ability to produce mass production. It has good application potential in the clinical treatment of hyperbilirubinemia.

Abstract
Hyperbilirubinemia, presenting as jaundice, is a life-threatening critical illness in newborn babies and acute severe hepatic failure patients. Over the past few decades, extracorporeal hemoadsorption by adsorbent therapy has been widely applied in the treatment of hyperbilirubinemia. The capability of hemoadsorption depends on the adsorbents. Most of the clinically used bilirubin adsorbents are made up of styrene/divinylbenzene copolymer and quaternary ammonium salt, which usually have poor biocompatibility and weak mechanical strength. To overcome the drawbacks of commercial polymer adsorbents, advanced synthetic and natural polymers with/without nanomaterials have been designed, and novel adsorbent fabrication technologies have also been developed. In this review, the adsorption mechanism of bilirubin adsorbents has been summarized, which is the basic criterion in adsorbent development. Furthermore, the preparation method, adsorption mechanism, relative merits and practicability of the emerging bilirubin adsorbents have been evaluated. Based on the existing studies, this work highlights the future direction of the efforts on how to design and develop bilirubin adsorbents with good overall clinical performance. Perhaps this study can change traditional perspectives and propose new strategies for bilirubin clearance from the aspects of pathogenic mechanisms, metabolic pathways, and material-based innovation.
