[PMID: 38838630 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2024.05.241] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2024] [Revised: 05/30/2024] [Accepted: 05/31/2024] [Indexed: 06/07/2024]
Abstract
Hybrid-nanozymes are promising in various applications, but comprehensive comparison of hybrid-nanozymes composed of single-atoms or nanoparticles on the same support has never been made. Here, manganese-oxide nanosheets were loaded with Pt-single-atoms or differently-sized nanoparticles and their oxidase- and-peroxidase activities compared. High-resolution Transmission-Electron-Microscopy and corresponding Fast Fourier Transform imaging showed that Pt-nanoparticles (1.5 nm diameter) had no clear (111) crystal-planes, while larger nanoparticles had clear (111) crystal-planes. X-ray Photo-electron Spectroscopy demonstrated that unloaded nanosheets were composed of MnO2 with a high number of oxygen vacancies (Vo/Mn 0.4). Loading with 7.0 nm Pt-nanoparticles induced a change to Mn2O3, while loading with 1.5 nm nanoparticles increased the number of vacancies (Vo/Mn 1.2). Nanosheets loaded with 3.0 nm Pt-nanoparticles possessed similarly high catalytic activities as Pt-single-atoms. However, loading with 1.5 nm or 7.0 nm Pt-nanoparticles yielded lower catalytic activities. A model is proposed explaining the low catalytic activity of under- and over-sized Pt-nanoparticles as compared with intermediately-sized (3.0 nm) Pt-nanoparticles and single-atoms. Herewith, catalytic activities of hybrid-nanozymes composed of single-atoms and intermediately-sized nanoparticles are put a par, as confirmed here with respect to bacterial biofilm eradication. This conclusion facilitates a balanced choice between using Pt-single-atoms or nanoparticles in further development and application of hybrid-nanozymes.

Abstract
Pneumonia involves complex immunological and pathological processes leading to pulmonary dysfunction, which can be life-threatening yet lacks effective specialized medications. Natural enzymes can be used as biological agents for the treatment of oxidative stress-related diseases, but limiting to catalytic and environmental stability as well as high cost. Herein, an artificial enzyme, gold nanoclusters (Au NCs) with excellent stability, bioactivity, and renal clearance can be used as the next-generation biological agents for acute lung injury (ALI) and allergic lung disease (ALD). The Au25 clusters can mimic catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx), and the Km of Au24Er1 with H2O2 reaches 1.28 mM, about 22 times higher than natural CAT (≈28.8 mM). The clusters inhibit the oxidative stress in the mitochondria and promote the synthesis of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The molecular mechanism shows that the TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB pathway and M1 macrophage-mediated inflammatory response are suppressed in ALI and the Th1/Th2 imbalance in ovalbumin (OVA)-induced ALD is rescued. Further, the clusters can notably improve lung function in both ALI and ALD models which paves the way for immunomodulation and intervention for lung injury and can be used as a substitute for natural enzymes and potential biopharmaceuticals in the treatment of various types of pneumonia.

Abstract
Rational design of highly active and stable catalysts for dopamine oxidation is still a great challenge. Herein, inspired by the catalytic pocket of natural enzymes, an iodine (I)-doped single Fe-site catalyst (I/FeSANC) is synthesized to mimic the catalytic center of heme enzymes in both geometrical and electronic structures, aiming to enhance dopamine (DA) oxidation. Experimental studies and theoretical calculations show that electronic communication between I and FeN5 effectively modulates the electronic structure of the active site, greatly optimizing the overlap of Fe 3d and O 2p orbitals, thereby enhancing OH adsorption. In addition, the electronic communication induced by iodine doping attenuates the attack of proton hydrogen on the active center, thereby enhancing the stability of I/FeSANC. This work provides new insights into the design of highly active and stable single-atom catalysts and enhances the understanding of catalytic mechanisms for DA oxidation at the atomic scale.

Abstract
Structure, stability, electronic structure, spectroscopy and chemical bonding properties of a fluorine atom doped gas-phase small to medium-sized magnesium clusters, FMgn (n = 2-20), systematically investigated by CALYPSO software together with density functional theory (DFT). Structural calculations showed that FMgn has a structural diversity which is rarely reported in other magnesium-based clusters before. F atoms were always located in the outer layer of the Mgn host clusters and only two or three Mg atoms surround it. FMg18 was revealed to be supposed to have robust relative stability. Charge transfer and density of states were calculated for analyzing the electronic structure characteristics. Theoretical calculations of IR, Raman and UV-Vis spectra were computed to provide data guidelines for future experimental observations. Finally, the F-Mg and Mg-Mg chemical bonds of the FMgn clusters were analyzed, including the critical bonding points (BCPs) of Laplacian of electron density (Δρ), electron localization function (ELF) and interaction region indicator (IRI). The kind and strength of chemical bonds reveal the mechanism by which the F atom was rapidly stabilized by Mgn (n = 2-20) host clusters.

Abstract
Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) is an emerging therapeutic modality triggered by endogenous substances in the tumor microenvironment (TME) to generate reactive oxygen species. However, the mild acid pH, low H2O2 concentration, and overexpressed glutathione can suppress the CDT efficiency. Herein, ultrasound (US)-triggered Cu2+-based single-atom nanoenzymes (FA-NH2-UiO-66-Cu, FNUC) are constructed with the performance of target and glutathione depletion. In the TME, the single-atom Cu sites of FNUC consume glutathione and the FNUC:Cu+ generates •OH via peroxidase-like activity. The US-activated FNUC exhibits a fast •OH generation rate, a low Michaelis constant, and a large •OH concentration, indicating the cavitation effect of US promotes the •OH generation. Meanwhile, the tumor target of FNUC is confirmed by NIR-II fluorescence imaging, in which it is modified with IR-1061. Combined with the antitumor performance of FNUC in vitro and in vivo, the novel Cu-based SAzymes can achieve efficient and precise cancer treatment.

Abstract
The fields of single atom engineering represent cutting-edge areas in nanotechnology and materials science, pushing the boundaries of how small we can go in engineering functional devices and materials. Nanorobots, or nanobots, are robotic systems scaled down to the nanometer level and designed to perform tasks at similarly small scales. Single atom engineering, on the other hand, involves manipulating individual atoms to create precise materials and devices with controlled properties and functionalities. By integrating single atom engineering into nanorobotics, we unlock the potential to enable the precise incorporation of multiple functionalities onto these minuscule machines with nanometer-level precision. In this perspective, we describe the nascent field of single atom engineering in nanorobotics.

Abstract
Zwitterionic thiolate ligands have the potential to introduce novel assembly modes and functions for noble metal clusters. However, their utilization in the synthesis of silver clusters remains understudied, particularly for the clusters containing reductive Ag(0) species. In this article, we report the first synthesis of a mixed-valence silver(0/I) cluster protected by zwitterionic Tab as thiolate ligands (Tab = 4-(trimethylammonio)benzenethiolate), denoted as [Ag22(Tab)24](PF6)20·16CH3OH·6Et2O (Ag22·16CH3OH·6Et2O), alongside an Ag(I) cluster [Ag20(Tab)12(PhCOO)10(MeCN)2(H2O)](PF6)10·11MeCN (Ag20·11MeCN). Ag22 has a distinct hierarchical supratetrahedral structure with a central {Ag6} kernel surrounded by four [Ag4(Tab)6]4+ units. High-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectra demonstrate that Ag22 has two free electrons, indicating a superatomic core. Ag20 has a drum-like [Ag12(Tab)6(PhCOO)6(H2O)]6+ inner core capped by two tetrahedral-like [Ag4(Tab)3(PhCOO)2(MeCN)]2+ units. Ag20 can be transformed into Ag22 after its reaction with NaBH4 in solution. Antibacterial measurements reveal that Ag22 has a significantly lower minimum inhibitory concentration than that of the Ag20 cluster. This work not only extends the stabilization of silver(0/I) clusters to neutral thiol ligands but also offers new materials for the development of novel antibacterial materials.

Abstract
Single atom alloys (SAAs) often bring new chemistry in heterogeneous catalysis and well-defined structure for the study of structure-activity relationship (SAR). However, the existing pressure gap causes the reported SARs quite divergent. Herein, we have studied CO activation over Ni/Cu(100) SAAs in ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) and millibar range. While the Ni SAAs formed on Cu(100) significantly enhance the CO adsorption strength under UHV conditions, the CO treatment at elevated pressure leads to notable surface carbon and oxygen deposition through surface reaction. Density functional theory calculations revealed that either dissociation or disproportionation is thermodynamically forbidden for the coverage of CO less than 5/16 ML. However, these two reaction pathways can be opened at higher CO coverages due to the elevated energy state involving repulsion between adsorbed CO. This work uncovers the initial activation process of CO and demonstrates one typical cause for the pressure gap in surface science study as well.

Abstract
The present work was designed to synthesize Ag2O-supported MgO/rGO nanocomposites (NCs) via green method using Phoenix leaf extract for improved photocatalytic and anticancer activity. Green synthesized Ag2O-supported MgO/rGO NCs were characterized through X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Raman, ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy, and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy, and gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (GC-MS) was applied to examine the chemical components of the Phoenix leaf extract. Characterization data confirmed the preparation of MgO NPs, Ag2O-MgO NCs, and Ag2O-MgO/rGO NC with particle size of 26-28 nm. UV-vis study exhibited that the band gap energy of MgO NPs, Ag2O-MgO NCs, and Ag2O-MgO/rGO NC were in the range of 3.53-3.43 eV. The photocatalytic results showed that the photodegradation of Rh B dye of Ag2O-supported MgO/rGO NCs (82.81%) was significantly higher than pure MgO NPs. Additionally, the biological response demonstrates that the Ag2O-supported MgO/rGO NCs induced high cytotoxicity against MCF-7 cancer cells for 24 h and 48 h compared with both pure MgO NPs and Ag2O-MgO NCs. This study suggests that the adding of Ag2O and rGO sheets played significant role in the enhanced photocatalytic and anticancer performance of MgO NPs.

Abstract
Nanozyme-driven catalytic therapy provides a promising treatment strategy for bacterial biofilm-infected wounds. However, the single functionality and limited catalytic efficiency of nanozyme-based materials often restrict the effectiveness of wound infection treatment. In this study, CuCo2O4 nanoflowers with multiple enzymatic activities were prepared for antibacterial/antibiofilm treatment by cuproptosis-like death. CuCo2O4 exhibited peroxidase-like (POD-like) and oxidase-like (OXD-like) dual enzyme activities that generated large amounts of •OH and O2•-. Moreover, the glutathione peroxidase-like (GSH-Px-like) activity of CuCo2O4 was able to reduce the overexpression of GSH in the wound microenvironment, enhancing the therapeutic effects of reactive oxygen species (ROS). The morphology of CuCo2O4 was modified using a hydrothermal method with PEG4000 as the solvent, resulting in the exposure of more active center sites and a significant improvement in enzyme catalytic activity. The in vitro results demonstrated the pronounced disruption effect of CuCo2O4 on biofilms formed by bacteria. In vivo, CuCo2O4 significantly promoted angiogenesis, collagen deposition, and cell proliferation. Transcriptome sequencing revealed that elevated ROS levels in bacteria led to cell membrane damage and metabolic disruption. In addition, Cu2+ overload in bacteria induces lipid peroxidation accumulation and disrupts the respiratory chain and tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, ultimately leading to bacterial cuproptosis-like death. This therapeutic strategy, which combines the synergistic effects of multiple enzyme-like activities with cuproptosis-like death, provides an approach for treating biofilm infections.

Abstract
Aquatic fishes are threatened by the strong pathogenic bacterium Nocardia seriolae, which challenges the current prevention and treatment approaches. This study introduces luminogens with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) as an innovative and non-antibiotic therapy for N. seriolae. Specifically, the AIE photosensitizer, TTCPy-3 is employed against N. seriolae. We evaluated the antibacterial activity of TTCPy-3 and investigated the killing mechanism against N. seriolae, emphasizing its ability to aggregate within the bacterium and produce reactive oxygen species (ROS). TTCPy-3 could effectively aggregate in N. seriolae, generate ROS, and perform real-time imaging of the bacteria. A bactericidal efficiency of 100% was observed while concentrations exceeding 4 μM in the presence of white light irradiation for 10 min. In vivo, evaluation on zebrafish (Danio rerio) confirmed the superior therapeutic efficacy induced by TTCPy-3 to fight against N. seriolae infections. TTCPy-3 offers a promising strategy for treating nocardiosis of fish, paving the way for alternative treatments beyond traditional antibiotics and potentially addressing antibiotic resistance.

Abstract
Ligand-protected metal clusters possess hybrid properties that seamlessly combine an inorganic core with an organic ligand shell, imparting them exceptional chemical flexibility and unlocking remarkable application potential in diverse fields. Leveraging chemical flexibility to expand the library of available materials and stimulate the development of new functionalities is becoming an increasingly pressing requirement. This Review focuses on the origin of chemical flexibility from the structural analysis, including intra-cluster bonding, inter-cluster interactions, cluster-environments interactions, metal-to-ligand ratios, and thermodynamic effects. In the introduction, we briefly outline the development of metal clusters and explain the differences and commonalities of M(I)/M(I/0) coinage metal clusters. Additionally, we distinguish the bonding characteristics of metal atoms in the inorganic core, which give rise to their distinct chemical flexibility. Section 2 delves into the structural analysis, bonding categories, and thermodynamic theories related to metal clusters. In the following sections 3 to 7, we primarily elucidate the mechanisms that trigger chemical flexibility, the dynamic processes in transformation, the resultant alterations in structure, and the ensuing modifications in physical-chemical properties. Section 8 presents the notable applications that have emerged from utilizing metal clusters and their assemblies. Finally, in section 9, we discuss future challenges and opportunities within this area.

Abstract
The immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) is a huge hurdle in immunotherapy. Sono-immunotherapy is a new treatment modality that can reverse immunosuppressive TME, but the sonodynamic effects are compromised by overexpressed glutathione (GSH) and hypoxia in the TME. Herein, this work reports a new sono-immunotherapy strategy using Pdδ+ single atom catalysts to enhance positive sonodynamic responses to the immunosuppressive and sono-suppressive TME. To demonstrate this technique, this work employs rich and reductive Ti vacancies in Ti3-xC2Ty nanosheets to construct the atomically dispersed Pd-C3 single atom catalysts (SAC) with Pd content up to 2.5 wt% (PdSA/Ti3-xC2Ty). Compared with Pd nanoparticle loaded Ti3-xC2Ty, PdSA/Ti3-xC2Ty single-atom enzyme showed augmented sonodynamic effects that are ascribed to SAC facilitated electron-hole separation, rapid depletion of overexpressed GSH by ultrasound (US) excited holes, and catalytic decomposition of endogenous H2O2 for relieving hypoxia. Importantly, the sono-immunotherapy strategy can boost abscopal antitumor immune responses by driving maturation of dendritic cells and polarization of tumor-associated macrophages into the antitumoral M1 phenotype. Bilateral tumor models demonstrate the complete eradication of localized tumors and enhance metastatic regression. Th strategy highlights the potential of single-atom catalysts for robust sono-immunotherapy by remodeling the tumor microenvironment.

Abstract
Self-assembly processes triggered by physical or chemical driving forces have been applied to fabricate hierarchical materials with subtle nanostructures. However, various physicochemical processes often interfere with each other, and their precise control has remained a great challenge. Here, in this paper, a rational synthesis of 1D magnetite-chain and mesoporous-silica-nanorod (Fe3O4&mSiO2) branched magnetic nanochains via a physical-chemical coupling coassembly approach is reported. Magnetic-field-induced assembly of magnetite Fe3O4 nanoparticles and isotropic/anisotropic assembly of mesoporous silica are coupled to obtain the delicate 1D branched magnetic mesoporous nanochains. The nanochains with a length of 2-3 µm in length are composed of aligned Fe3O4@mSiO2 nanospheres with a diameter of 150 nm and sticked-out 300 nm long mSiO2 branches. By properly coordinating the multiple assembly processes, the density and length of mSiO2 branches can well be adjusted. Because of the unique rough surface and length in correspondence to bacteria, the designed 1D Fe3O4&mSiO2 branched magnetic nanochains show strong bacterial adhesion and pressuring ability, performing bacterial inhibition over 60% at a low concentration (15 µg mL-1). This cooperative coassembly strategy deepens the understanding of the micro-nanoscale assembly process and lays a foundation for the preparation of the assembly with adjustable surface structures and the subsequent construction of complex multilevel structures.

Abstract
Various clinical symptoms of digestive system, such as infectious, inflammatory, and malignant disorders, have a profound impact on the quality of life and overall health of patients. Therefore, the chase for more potent medicines is both highly significant and urgent. Nanozymes, a novel class of nanomaterials, amalgamate the biological properties of nanomaterials with the catalytic activity of enzymes, and have been engineered for various biomedical applications, including complex gastrointestinal diseases (GI). Particularly, because of their distinctive metal coordination structure and ability to maximize atom use efficiency, single-atom nanozymes (SAzymes) with atomically scattered metal centers are becoming a more viable substitute for natural enzymes. Traditional nanozyme design strategies are no longer able to meet the current requirements for efficient and diverse SAzymes design due to the diversification and complexity of preparation processes. As a result, this review emphasizes the design concept and the synthesis strategy of SAzymes, and corresponding bioenzyme-like activities, such as superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), oxidase (OXD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione peroxidase (GPx). Then the various application of SAzymes in GI illnesses are summarized, which should encourage further research into nanozymes to achieve better application characteristics.

Abstract
Over the years, electrochemical reactors have evolved significantly, with modern reactors now able to achieve a high current density and power output in compact sizes. This leap in performance has not only greatly accelerated the rate of electrochemical reactions but also had a broader impact on the environment. Traditional research perspectives, focused primarily on the internal working systems of reactors, possibly overlook the potential of electrochemical systems in regulating their surrounding environment. A novel research perspective considering the interaction between electrochemical processes and their environmental context as a unified subject of study has gradually emerged alongside the dramatic development of electrochemical techniques. This viewpoint introduces a paradigm shift: electrochemical reactors are not isolated entities but rather are integral parts that interact with their surroundings. Correspondingly, this calls for an innovative research methodology that goes beyond studying the electrochemical processes in isolation. Rather, it integrates the design of the electrochemical system with its specific application environment, ensuring seamless integration for optimal performance under various practical conditions. Therefore, performance metrics should include not only the basic parameters of the electrochemical reactions but also the adaptability of the electrochemical system in real-world scenarios beyond the laboratory. By focusing on environmental integration and application-driven design, the applications of electrochemical technology can be more effectively leveraged. This perspective is exemplified by an electrochemical system based on coupled cathodic oxygen reduction and anodic oxygen evolution reactions. By adopting this new research paradigm, the applications of this electrochemical system can be extended to fields like medical treatment, food science, and microbial fermentation, with an emphasis on tailored designs for these specific application fields. This comprehensive and systematic new research approach aims to fully explore the potential applications of electrochemical technology and foster interdisciplinary collaboration in the electrochemical field.

Abstract
Single-atom nanozymes (SAzymes) showcase not only uniformly dispersed active sites but also meticulously engineered coordination structures. These intricate architectures bestow upon them an exceptional catalytic prowess, thereby captivating numerous minds and heralding a new era of possibilities in the biomedical landscape. Tuning the microstructure of SAzymes on the atomic scale is a key factor in designing targeted SAzymes with desirable functions. This review first discusses and summarizes three strategies for designing SAzymes and their impact on reactivity in biocatalysis. The effects of choices of carrier, different synthesis methods, coordination modulation of first/second shell, and the type and number of metal active centers on the enzyme-like catalytic activity are unraveled. Next, a first attempt is made to summarize the biological applications of SAzymes in tumor therapy, biosensing, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and other biological applications from different mechanisms. Finally, how SAzymes are designed and regulated for further realization of diverse biological applications is reviewed and prospected. It is envisaged that the comprehensive review presented within this exegesis will furnish novel perspectives and profound revelations regarding the biomedical applications of SAzymes.

Abstract
Bisphenol compounds [bisphenol A (BPA), etc.] are one class of the most important and widespread pollutants in food and environment, which pose severe endocrine disrupting effect, reproductive toxicity, immunotoxicity, and metabolic toxicity on humans and animals. Simultaneous rapid determination of BPA and its analogues (bisphenol S, bisphenol AF, etc.) with extraordinary potential resolution and sensitivity is of great significance but still extremely challenging. Herein, a series of single-atom catalysts (SACs) were synthesized by anchoring different metal atoms (Mg, Co, Ni, and Cu) on N-doped carbon materials and used as sensing materials for simultaneous detection of bisphenols with similar chemical structures. The Mg-based SAC enables the potential discrimination and simultaneous rapid detection of multiple bisphenols, showing outstanding analytical performances, outperforming all other SACs and traditional electrode materials. Our experiments and density functional theory calculations show that pyrrolic N serves as the adsorption site for the adsorption of bisphenols and the Mg atom serves as the active site for the electrocatalytic oxidation of bisphenols, which play a synergistic role as dual active centers in improving the sensing performance. The results of this work may pave the way for the rational design of SACs as advanced sensing and catalytic materials.

Facilitation of Fenton-Like Reaction of Copper-Nitrogen-Doped Carbon-Based Nanocatalysts by Enhancing Hydroxyl Adsorption on Single-Atom Cu-N xC 4- x Sites. SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2024; 20:e2309637.

Abstract
Copper-nitrogen-doped carbon-based nanocatalysts (Cu-NCs), containing atomically dispersed Cu-NxC4- x sites, are efficient in boosting the Fenton-like reaction. However, the mechanisms of the Fenton-like reaction, including the pH effect on the products and the effect of the coordination environment on catalytic activity, remain controversial, restricting the development of Cu-NCs. Cu-NCs are experimentally synthesized with Cu-N4 sites and prove that the Fenton-like reaction generates mainly hydroxyl radicals (·OH) in the acidic but ·OH and superoxide radicals (·O2 -) in the neutral. The density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal that the catalytic activity of Cu-NCs in the Fenton-like reaction is associated with the adsorption strength of ·OH at the Cu site. Further investigation of the effect of the coordination environment of Cu-NCs indicates that the Cu-N2C2 site, which can enhance the ·OH adsorption strength, is an ideal catalyst site for the Fenton-like reaction. These results open the way to facilitating the catalytic activity of Cu-NCs in the Fenton-like reaction.

Abstract
Active polymetallic atomic clusters can initiate heterogeneous catalytic reactions in the tumor microenvironment, and the products tend to cause manifold damage to cell metabolic functions. Herein, bimetallic PtPd atomic clusters (BAC) are constructed by the stripping of Pt and Pd nanoparticles on nitrogen-doped carbon and follow-up surface PEGylation, aiming at efficacious antineoplastic therapy through heterogeneous catalytic processes. After endocytosed by tumor cells, BAC with catalase-mimic activity can facilitate the decomposition of endogenous H2O2 into O2. The local oxygenation not only alleviates hypoxia to reduce the invasion ability of cancer cells but also enhances the yield of •O2- from O2 catalyzed by BAC. Meanwhile, BAC also exhibit peroxidase-mimic activity for •OH production from H2O2. The enrichment of reactive oxygen species (ROS), including the radicals of •OH and •O2-, causes significant oxidative cellular damage and triggers severe apoptosis. In another aspect, intrinsic glutathione (GSH) peroxidase-like activity of BAC can indirectly upregulate the level of lipid peroxides and promote ferroptosis. Such deleterious redox dyshomeostasis caused by ROS accumulation and GSH consumption also results in immunogenic cell death to stimulate antitumor immunity for metastasis suppression. Collectively, this paradigm is expected to inspire more facile designs of polymetallic atomic clusters in disease therapy.

Abstract
Nanozymes have great potential to be used as an alternative to natural enzymes in a variety of fields. However, low catalytic activity compared with natural enzymes limits their practical use. It is still challenging to design nanozymes comparable to their natural counterparts in terms of the specific activity. In this study, a surface engineering strategy is employed to improve the specific activity of Ru nanozymes using charge-transferrable ligands such as polystyrene sulfonate (PSS). PSS-modified Ru nanozyme exhibits a peroxidase-like specific activity of up to 2820 U mg-1 , which is twice that of horseradish peroxidase (1305 U mg-1 ). Mechanism studies suggest that PSS readily accepts negative charge from Ru, thus reducing the affinity between Ru and ·OH. Importantly, the modified Ru-peroxidase nanozyme is successfully used to develop an immunoassay for human alpha-fetoprotein and achieves a 140-fold increase in detection sensitivity compared with traditional horseradish-peroxidase-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Therefore, this work provides a feasible route to design nanozymes with high specific activity that meets the practical use as an alternative to natural enzymes.

Abstract
Single-atom nanozymes (SAzymes) have been greatly developed for rapid detection, owing to their rich active sites and excellent catalytic activity. Although several excellent reviews concentrating on SAzymes have been reported, they mainly focused on advanced synthesis, sensing mechanisms, and biomedical applications. To date, few reviews elaborate on the promising applications of SAzymes in food safety inspection and food nutrition evaluation. In this paper, we systematically reviewed the enzyme-like activity of SAzymes and the catalytic mechanism, in addition to recent research advances of SAzymes in the domain of food safety inspection and food nutrition evaluation in the past few years. Furthermore, current challenges hampering practical applications of SAzymes in food assay are summarized and analyzed, and possible research areas focusing on SAzyme-based sensors in rapid food testing are also proposed.

Abstract
The reaction system of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) catalyzed by nanozyme has a broad prospect in antibacterial treatment. However, the complex catalytic activities of nanozymes lead to multiple pathways reacting in parallel, causing uncertain antibacterial results. New approach to effectively regulate the multiple catalytic activities of nanozyme is in urgent need. Herein, Cu single site is modified on nanoceria with various catalytic activities, such as peroxidase-like activity (POD) and hydroxyl radical antioxidant capacity (HORAC). Benefiting from the interaction between coordinated Cu and CeO2 substrate, POD is enhanced while HORAC is inhibited, which is further confirmed by density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Cu-CeO2 + H2O2 system shows good antibacterial properties both in vitro and in vivo. In this work, the strategy based on the interaction between coordinated metal and carrier provides a general clue for optimizing the complex activities of nanozymes.

Abstract
Due to their inherent advantages, silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) have greatly potential applications as bioactive materials in biosensors/biomedicine. However, the long-term and nonspecific accumulation in healthy tissues may give rise to toxicity, thereby impeding their widespread clinical application. Hence, it is imperative and noteworthy to develop biodegradable and clearable SiNPs for biomedical purposes. Recently, the design of multi-stimuli responsive SiNPs to improve degradation efficiency under specific pathological conditions has increased their clinical trial potential as theranostic nanoplatform. This review comprehensively summaries the rational design and recent progress of biodegradable SiNPs under various internal and external stimuli for rapid in vivo degradation and clearance. In addition, the factors that affect the biodegradation of SiNPs are also discussed. We believe that this systematic review will offer profound stimulus and timely guide for further research in the field of SiNP-based nanosensors/nanomedicine.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), with biocompatible and bio-friendly properties, exhibit intriguing potential for the drug delivery system and imaging-guided synergistic cancer theranostics. Even though tremendous attention has been attracted on MOFs-based therapeutics, which play a crucial role in therapeutic drugs, gene, and biomedical agents delivery of cancer therapy, they are often explored as simple nanocarriers without further "intelligent" functions. Herein, Fe-doped MOFs with CoP nanoparticles loading were rationally designed and synthesized for photothermal enhanced reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated treatment. Fe-ZIFs@CoP could generate efficient ROS through the Fenton reaction while depleting glutathione for amplifying oxidative stress. Particularly, due to the photothermal effect of Fe-ZIFs@CoP, the hyperthermia generated by as-synthesized Fe-ZIFs@CoP facilitated the advanced performance of the Fenton effect for a high amount of ROS generation. The promising "all-in-one" synergistic MOFs platform herein reported provides some prospects for future directions in this area.

Abstract
Single-atom nanozymes (SANs) are nanomaterials-based nanozymes with atomically dispersed enzyme-like active sites. SANs offer improved as well as tunable catalytic activity. The creation of extremely effective SANs and their potential uses have piqued researchers' curiosity due to their advantages of cheap cost, variable catalytic activity, high stability, and large-scale production. Furthermore, SANs with uniformly distributed active centers and definite coordination structures offer a distinctive opportunity to investigate the structure-activity correlation and control the geometric and electrical features of metal centers. SANs have been extensively explored in photo-, thermal-, and electro-catalysis. However, SANs suffer from the following disadvantages, such as efficiency, non-mimicking of the 3-D complexity of natural enzymes, limited and narrow range of artificial SANs, and biosafety aspects. Among a quite limited range of artificial SANs, the peroxidase action of SANs has attracted significant research attention in the last five years with the aim of producing reactive oxygen species for use in cancer therapy, and water treatment among many other applications. In this review, we explore the recent progress of different SANs as peroxidase mimics, the role of the metal center in enzymatic activity, possible prospects, and underlying limitations in real-time applications.

Abstract
Due to their appealing physiochemical properties, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have been widely employed in biomedical fields. In this study, we utilize ferric ions and fluorine-containing organic ligands as both structural and functional units to develop a stimulus-responsive nanoagent, 19FIMOF-TA nanoparticles, for activatable 19F magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and synergistic therapy of tumors. This nanoagent could respond to excess GSH in a tumor microenvironment, discharging fluorinated organic ligands and reduced ferrous ions. The release of these fluorine-containing small molecules results in boosting of the 19F MRI signals, which could be further enhanced by the photothermal effect of this nanoagent to achieve a responsive cascaded amplification of 19F MRI signals for tumor visualization. Meanwhile, ferroptosis promoted by the ferrous ions leads to significant tumor cell death, which is synergistically aggravated by the photothermal effect. The encouraging results illustrate the promising potential of our nanoagent for effective tumor imaging and combinative cancer therapy.

Abstract
The presence of transition-metal single-atom catalysts effectively enhances the interaction between the substrate and reactant molecules, thus exhibiting extraordinary catalytic performance. In this work, we for the first time report a facile synthetic procedure for placing highly dispersed Ru single atoms on stable CNF(ZnO) nanocages. We unravel the atomistic nature of the Ru single atoms in CNF(ZnO)/Ru systems using advanced HAADF-STEM, HRTEM, and XANES analytical methods. Density functional theory calculations further support the presence of ruthenium single-atom sites in the CNF(ZnO)/Ru system. Our work further demonstrates the excellent photocatalytic ability of the CNF(ZnO)/Ru system with respect to H2 production (5.8 mmol g-1 h-1) and reduction of CO2 to CH3OH [249 μmol (g of catalyst)-1] with apparent quantum efficiencies of 3.8% and 1.4% for H2 and CH3OH generation, respectively. Our studies unambiguously demonstrate the presence of atomically dispersed ruthenium sites in CNF(ZnO)/Ru catalysts, which greatly enhance charge transfer, thus facilitating the aforementioned photocatalytic redox reactions.

Abstract
RATIONALE To realize imaging-guided multi-modality cancer therapy with minimal side effects remains highly challenging. METHODS We devised a bioinspired hollow nitrogen-doped carbon sphere anchored with individually dispersed Mn atoms (Mn/N-HCN) via oxidation polymerization with triton micelle as a soft template, followed by carbonization and annealing. Enzyme kinetic analysis and optical properties were performed to evaluate the imaging-guided photothermally synergized nanocatalytic therapy. RESULTS Simultaneously mimicking several natural enzymes, namely peroxidase (POD), catalase (CAT), oxidase (OXD), and glutathione peroxidase (GPx), this nano-multizyme is able to produce highly cytotoxic hydroxyl radical (•OH) and singlet oxygen (1O2) without external energy input through parallel and series catalytic reactions and suppress the upregulated antioxidant (glutathione) in tumor. Furthermore, NIR-II absorbing Mn/N-HCN permits photothermal therapy (PTT), enhancement of CAT activity, and photoacoustic (PA) imaging to monitor the accumulation kinetics of the nanozyme and catalytic process in situ. Both in vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrate that near-infrared-II (NIR-II) PA-imaging guided, photothermally enhanced and synergized nanocatalytic therapy is efficient to induce apoptosis of cancerous cells and eradicate tumor tissue. CONCLUSIONS This study not only demonstrates a new method for effective cancer diagnosis and therapy but also provides new insights into designing multi-functional nanozymes.

Abstract
Single-atom nanozymes (SAzymes) have obtained increasing interest to mimic natural enzymes for efficient cancer therapy, while challenged by chemoresistance from cellular redox homeostasis and the interface of reductive species in tumor microenvironment (TME). Herein, a dual single-atomic ultrathin 2D metal organic framework (MOF) nanosheet of multienzyme (Pd/Cu SAzyme@Dzy) is prepared to synergistically overcome chemoresistance for multienzyme enhanced cancer catalytic therapy. The Pd SAzyme exhibits peroxidase (POD)-like catalytic activity for overcoming chemoresistance via disturbing cellular redox balance. This is further enhanced by cascade generation of more ∙OH via Cu+ -catalyzed POD-like reactions, initiated by in situ-reduction of Cu2+ into Cu+ upon GSH depletion. This process can also avoid the consumption of ∙OH by endogenous reductive GSH in TME, ensuring the adequate amount of ∙OH for highly efficient therapy. Besides, the DNAzyme is also delivered for gene therapy of silencing cancer-cell-targeting VEGFR2 protein to further enhance the therapy. Based on both experiments and theoretical calculations, the synergetic multienzyme-based cancer therapy is examined and the enhancement by the cascade tumor antichemoresistance is revealed.

Abstract
This comprehensive review provides a deep exploration of the unique roles of single atom catalysts (SACs) in photocatalytic hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) production. SACs offer multiple benefits over traditional catalysts such as improved efficiency, selectivity, and flexibility due to their distinct electronic structure and unique properties. The review discusses the critical elements in the design of SACs, including the choice of metal atom, host material, and coordination environment, and how these elements impact the catalytic activity. The role of single atoms in photocatalytic H2O2 production is also analysed, focusing on enhancing light absorption and charge generation, improving the migration and separation of charge carriers, and lowering the energy barrier of adsorption and activation of reactants. Despite these advantages, several challenges, including H2O2 decomposition, stability of SACs, unclear mechanism, and low selectivity, need to be overcome. Looking towards the future, the review suggests promising research directions such as direct utilization of H2O2, high-throughput synthesis and screening, the creation of dual active sites, and employing density functional theory for investigating the mechanisms of SACs in H2O2 photosynthesis. This review provides valuable insights into the potential of single atom catalysts for advancing the field of photocatalytic H2O2 production.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) based on Fenton/Fenton-like reaction has emerged as a promising cancer treatment strategy. Yet, the strong anti-oxidation property of tumor microenvironment (TME) caused by endogenous glutathione (GSH) still severely impedes the effectiveness of CDT. Traditional CDT nanoplatforms based on core@shell structure possess inherent interference of different subunits, thus hindering the overall therapeutic efficiency. Consequently, it is urgent to construct a novel structure with isolated functional units and GSH depletion capability to achieve desirable combined CDT therapeutic efficiency. RESULTS Herein, a surface curvature-induced oriented assembly strategy is proposed to synthesize a sushi-like novel Janus therapeutic nanoplatform which is composed of two functional units, a FeOOH nanospindle serving as CDT subunit and a mSiO2 nanorod serving as drug-loading subunit. The FeOOH CDT subunit is half covered by mSiO2 nanorod along its long axis, forming sushi-like structure. The FeOOH nanospindle is about 400 nm in length and 50 nm in diameter, and the mSiO2 nanorod is about 550 nm in length and 100 nm in diameter. The length and diameter of mSiO2 subunit can be tuned in a wide range while maintaining the sushi-like Janus structure, which is attributed to a Gibbs-free-energy-dominating surface curvature-induced oriented assembly process. In this Janus therapeutic nanoplatform, Fe3+ of FeOOH is firstly reduced to Fe2+ by endogenous GSH, the as-generated Fe2+ then effectively catalyzes overexpressed H2O2 in TME into highly lethal ·OH to achieve efficient CDT. The doxorubicin (DOX) loaded in the mSiO2 subunit can be released to achieve combined chemotherapy. Taking advantage of Fe3+-related GSH depletion, Fe2+-related enhanced ·OH generation, and DOX-induced chemotherapy, the as-synthesized nanoplatform possesses excellent therapeutic efficiency, in vitro eliminating efficiency of tumor cells is as high as ~ 87%. In vivo experiments also show the efficient inhibition of tumor, verifying the synthesized sushi-like Janus nanoparticles as a promising therapeutic nanoplatform. CONCLUSIONS In general, our work provides a successful paradigm of constructing novel therapeutic nanoplatform to achieve efficient tumor inhibition.

Abstract
In expanding our research activities of superlattice engineering, designing new giant molecules is the necessary first step. One attempt is to use inorganic transition metal clusters as building blocks. Efficient functionalization of chemically precise transition metal clusters, however, remains a great challenge to material scientists. Herein, we report an efficient thiol-Michael addition approach for the modifications of cyclic titanium-oxo cluster (CTOC). Several advantages, including high efficiency, mild reaction condition, capability of complete addition, high atom economy, as well as high functional group tolerance were demonstrated. This approach can afford high yields of fully functionalized CTOCs, which provides a powerful platform for achieving versatile functionalization of precise transition metal clusters and further applications.

Abstract
Biosensors have been widely used for bacteria determination with great success. However, the "lock-and-key" methodology used by biosensors to identify bacteria has a significant limitation: it can only detect one species of bacteria. In recent years, optical (fluorescent and colorimetric) sensor arrays are gradually gaining attention from researchers as a new type of biosensor. They can acquire multiple features of a target simultaneously, form a feature pattern, and determine the bacteria species with the help of pattern recognition/machine learning algorithms. Previous reviews in this area have focused on the interaction between the sensor array and bacteria or the materials used to make the sensors. This review, on the other hand, will provide researchers with a better understanding of the field by discussing fluorescent and colorimetric sensor arrays based on the mechanism of optical signal generation. These sensor arrays will be compared based on the identified species. Finally, we will discuss the limitations of these sensor arrays and explore possible solutions.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, carbonyl, chlorine, bromine, and iodine species (RXS, where X = O, N, S, C, Cl, Br, and I) have important roles in various normal physiological processes and act as essential regulators of cell metabolism; their inherent biological activities govern cell signaling, immune balance, and tissue homeostasis. However, an imbalance between RXS production and consumption will induce the occurrence and development of various diseases. Due to the considerable progress of nanomedicine, a variety of nanosystems that can regulate RXS has been rationally designed and engineered for restoring RXS balance to halt the pathological processes of different diseases. The invention of radical-regulating nanomaterials creates the possibility of intriguing projects for disease treatment and promotes advances in nanomedicine. In this comprehensive review, we summarize, discuss, and highlight very-recent advances in RXS-based nanomedicine for versatile disease treatments. This review particularly focuses on the types and pathological effects of these reactive species and explores the biological effects of RXS-based nanomaterials, accompanied by a discussion and the outlook of the challenges faced and future clinical translations of RXS nanomedicines.

Abstract
Traditional treatment methods for tumors are inefficient and have severe side effects. At present, new therapeutic methods such as phototherapy, chemodynamic therapy, and gasodynamic therapy have been innovatively developed. High concentrations of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas exhibit cancer-suppressive effects. Herein, a Prussian blue-loaded tetra-sulfide modified dendritic mesoporous organosilica (PB@DMOS) was rationally constructed with glutathione (GSH)-triggered/photothermal-enhanced H2S signaling molecule release properties for gas therapy. The as-synthesized nanoplatform confined PB nanoparticles in the mesoporous structure of organosilica silica due to electrostatic adsorption. In the case of a GSH overexpressed tumor microenvironment, H2S gas was controllably released. And the temperature increases due to the photothermal effects of PB nanoparticles, further enhancing H2S release. At the same time, PB nanoparticles with excellent hydrogen peroxide catalytic performance also amplified the efficiency of tumor therapy. Thus, a collective nanoplatform with gas therapy/photothermal therapy/catalytic therapy functionalities shows potential promise in terms of efficient tumor therapy.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a clinically approved noninvasive tumor therapy that can selectively kill malignant tumor cells, with promising use in the treatment of various cancers. PDT is typically composed of three important parts: the specific wavelength of light, photosensitizer (PS), and oxygen. With the progressing investigation on PDT treatment, the most recent attention has focused on improving photodynamic efficiency. Tumor hypoxia has always been a critical factor hindering the efficacy of PDT. Nanoscale metal-organic frameworks (nMOF), the fourth generation of PS, present great potential in photodynamic therapy. In particular, nMOF combined with metal nanoparticles and metal oxide/peroxide has demonstrated unique properties for enhanced PDT. The metal and metal oxide nanoparticles can catalyze H2O2 to generate oxygen or automatically produces oxygen, alleviating the hypoxia and improving the photodynamic efficiency. Metal peroxide nanoparticles can spontaneously produce oxygen in water or under acidic conditions. Therefore, this Review summarizes the recent development of nMOF combined with metal nanoparticles (platinum nanoparticles and gold nanoparticles) and metal oxide/peroxide (manganese dioxide, ferric oxide, cerium oxide, calcium peroxide, and magnesium peroxide) for enhanced photodynamic therapy by alleviating tumor hypoxia. Finally, future perspectives of nMOF combined nanomaterials in PDT are put forward.

Abstract
Modern global industrialization along with the ever-increasing growth of the population has resulted in continuous enhancement in the discharge and accumulation of various toxic and hazardous chemicals in the environment. These harmful pollutants, including toxic gases, inorganic heavy metal ions, anthropogenic waste, persistent organic pollutants, toxic dyes, pharmaceuticals, volatile organic compounds, etc., are destroying the ecological balance of the environment. Therefore, systematic monitoring and effective remediation of these toxic pollutants either by adsorptive removal or by catalytic degradation are of great significance. From this viewpoint, porous organic polymers (POPs), being two- or three-dimensional polymeric materials, constructed from small organic molecules connected with rigid covalent bonds have come forth as a promising platform toward various leading applications, especially for efficient environmental remediation. Their unique chemical and structural features including high stability, tunable pore functionalization, and large surface area have boosted the transformation of POPs into various macro-physical forms such as thick and thin-film membranes, which led to a new direction in advanced level pollutant removal, separation and catalytic degradation. In this review, our focus is to highlight the recent progress and achievements in the strategic design, synthesis, architectural-engineering and applications of POPs and their composite materials toward environmental remediation. Several strategies to improve the adsorption efficiency and catalytic degradation performance along with the in-depth interaction mechanism of POP-based materials have been systematically summarized. In addition, evolution of POPs from regular powder form application to rapid and more efficient size and chemo-selective, "real-time" applicable membrane-based application has been further highlighted. Finally, we put forward our perspective on the challenges and opportunities of these materials toward real-world implementation and future prospects in next generation remediation technology.

Abstract
Molecular inorganic catalysts (MICs) tend to have solvent-exposed metal centers that lack substrate specificity and are easily inhibited by biological nucleophiles. Unfortunately, these limitations exclude many MICs from being considered for in vivo applications. To overcome this challenge, a strategy to spatially confine MICs using Lewis acid-driven self-assembly is presented. It was shown that in the presence of external cations (e.g., Li+, Na+, K+, or Cs+) or phosphate buffered saline, diiridium macrocycles spontaneously formed supramolecular iridium-cation species, which were characterized by X-ray crystallography and dynamic light scattering. These nanoassemblies selectively reduced sterically unhindered C[double bond, length as m-dash]O groups via transfer hydrogenation and tolerated up to 1 mM of glutathione. In contrast, when non-coordinating tetraalkylammonium cations were used, the diiridium catalysts were unable to form higher-ordered structures and discriminate between different aldehyde substrates. This work suggests that in situ coordination self-assembly could be a versatile approach to enable or enhance the integration of MICs with biological hosts.

Abstract
In this study, we successfully synthesized rod-shaped [Au25(PPh3)10(S-Adm)5Cl2]2+ nanoclusters using kinetic controls. The complete molecular structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray crystallography and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. In comparison with the previously reported [Au25(PPh3)10(PET)5Cl2]2+ clusters, both nanoclusters have an icosahedral composition of Au13 linked by Au atoms that share a vertex, but [Au25(PPh3)10(S-Adm)5Cl2]2+ clusters appear elongated due to the rigidity of adamantane. We conducted ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry (UV-vis) measurements of [Au25(PPh3)10(PET)5Cl2]2+ and [Au25(PPh3)10(S-Adm)5Cl2]2+ in dichloromethane solvent to elucidate the modulation of the cluster properties of different ligands. The lowest energy absorption peak of [Au25(PPh3)10(S-Adm)5Cl2]2+ shifted to lower energies compared to the [Au25(PPh3)10(PET)5Cl2]2+ clusters in UV-vis measurements. Temperature-dependent absorption measurements revealed that [Au25(PPh3)10(S-Adm)5Cl2]2+ clusters were less affected by temperature compared to [Au25(PPh3)10(PET)5Cl2]2+. This result is attributed to the exciton phonon coupling of [Au25(PPh3)10(S-Adm)5Cl2]2+ clusters being weaker than [Au25(PPh3)10(PET)5Cl2]2+ clusters. Furthermore, the absorption spectra of [Au25(PPh3)10(PET)5Cl2]2+ and [Au25(PPh3)10(S-Adm)5Cl2]2+ clusters were measured using different types of solutions, and it was found that the lowest energy absorption peaks of [Au25(PPh3)10(S-Adm)5Cl2]2+ were shifted and affected by the solution at room temperature, which suggested that the [Au25(PPh3)10(S-Adm)5Cl2]2+ clusters with solution hydrogen bonds also interacted strongly at room temperature. Theoretical calculations show that changes in ligands affect the differences in the molecular orbitals and structures of the clusters, which cause changes in the optical properties.

Abstract
The manipulation of carbon nitride (CN) structures is one main avenue to enhance the activity of CN-based photocatalysts. Increasing the efficiency of photocatalytic heterogeneous materials is a critical step toward the realistic implementation of sustainable schemes for organic synthesis. However, limited knowledge of the structure/activity relationship in relation to subtle structural variations prevents a fully rational design of new photocatalytic materials, limiting practical applications. Here, the CN structure is engineered by means of a microwave treatment, and the structure of the material is shaped around its suitable functionality for Ni dual photocatalysis, with a resulting boosting of the reaction efficiency toward many CX (X = N, S, O) couplings. The combination of advanced characterization techniques and first-principle simulations reveals that this enhanced reactivity is due to the formation of carbon vacancies that evolve into triazole and imine N species able to suitably bind Ni complexes and harness highly efficient dual catalysis. The cost-effective microwave treatment proposed here appears as a versatile and sustainable approach to the design of CN-based photocatalysts for a wide range of industrially relevant organic synthetic reactions.

Abstract
Surface functionalization has a prominent influence on tuning/manipulating the physicochemical properties of nanometer scaled materials. Ultrasmall sized nanoclusters with very few atoms have received enormous attention due to their bright fluorescence, biocompatibility, lower toxicity, good colloidal stability and strong photostability. These properties make them suitable for diagnostic applications. In this work, we intend to study the effect of surface functional ligands on their biodistribution both in vitro and in vivo organelle systems for bioimaging applications.

Abstract
Despite the current progress in optimizing and tailoring the performance of nanozymes through structural and synthetic adaptation, there is still a lack of dynamic modulation approaches to alter their catalytic activity. Here, we demonstrate that DNA can act as an auxiliary regulator via a straightforward incubation method with Fe-N-C single-atom nanozymes (SAzymes), causing a leap in the enzyme-like activity of Fe-N-C from moderate to a higher level. The DNA-assisted enhancement is attributed to the increased substrate affinity of Fe-N-C nanozymes through electrostatic attraction between the substrate and DNA. Based on the prepared DNA/Fe-N-C system, colorimetric sensors for dopamine (DA) detection were constructed. Surprisingly, the incorporation of DNA not only enabled the detection of DA in a low concentration range, but also greatly improved the sensitivity with a 436-fold decrease in detection limit. The quantitative determination of DA was achieved in two-segment linear ranges of 0.01-4 μM and 5-100 μM with an ultralow detection limit of 9.56 nM. The DNA/Fe-N-C system shows superior performance compared to the original Fe-N-C system, making it an ideal choice for nanozyme-based biosensors. This simple design approach has paved the way for enhancing nanozyme activity and is expected to serve as a general strategy for optimizing biosensor performance.

Biomedical,clinical and environmental applications of platinum-based nanohybrids: An updated review. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2023; 231:116148. [PMID: 37211181 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2023.116148] [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: 01/13/2023] [Revised: 04/25/2023] [Accepted: 05/13/2023] [Indexed: 05/23/2023]
Abstract
Platinum nanoparticles (Pt NPs) have numerous applications in various sectors, including pharmacology, nanomedicine, cancer therapy, radiotherapy, biotechnology and environment mitigation like removal of toxic metals from wastewater, photocatalytic degradation of toxic compounds, adsorption, and water splitting. The multifaceted applications of Pt NPs because of their ultra-fine structures, large surface area, tuned porosity, coordination-binding, and excellent physiochemical properties. The various types of nanohybrids (NHs) of Pt NPs can be fabricated by doping with different metal/metal oxide/polymer-based materials. There are several methods to synthesize platinum-based NHs, but biological processes are admirable because of green, economical, sustainable, and non-toxic. Due to the robust physicochemical and biological characteristics of platinum NPs, they are widely employed as nanocatalyst, antioxidant, antipathogenic, and anticancer agents. Indeed, Pt-based NHs are the subject of keen interest and substantial research area for biomedical and clinical applications. Hence, this review systematically studies antimicrobial, biological, and environmental applications of platinum and platinum-based NHs, predominantly for treating cancer and photo-thermal therapy. Applications of Pt NPs in nanomedicine and nano-diagnosis are also highlighted. Pt NPs-related nanotoxicity and the potential and opportunity for future nano-therapeutics based on Pt NPs are also discussed.

Abstract
The development of hemoglobin (Hb)-based oxygen carriers (HBOCs) holds a lot of potential to overcome important drawbacks of donor blood such as a short shelf life or the potential risk of infection. However, a crucial limitation of current HBOCs is the autoxidation of Hb into methemoglobin (metHb), which lacks oxygen-carrying capacity. Herein, we address this challenge by fabricating a Hb and gold nanoclusters (AuNCs) composite (Hb@AuNCs) which preserves the exceptional features of both systems. Specifically, the Hb@AuNCs retain the oxygen-transporting properties of Hb, while the AuNCs provide antioxidant functionality as shown by their ability to catalytically deplete harmful reactive oxygen species (ROS). Importantly, these ROS-scavenging properties translate into antioxidant protection by minimizing the autoxidation of Hb into non-functional metHb. Furthermore, the AuNCs render Hb@AuNCs with auto-fluorescence properties which could potentially allow them to be monitored once administered into the body. Last but not least, these three features (i.e., oxygen transport, antioxidant and fluorescence properties) are well maintained following storage as a freeze-dried product. Thus, overall, the as-prepared Hb@AuNCs hold the potential to be used as a multifunctional blood surrogate in the near future.

Abstract
Catalysts have achieved efficacy in scavenging reactive oxygen species (ROS) to eliminate neuroinflammation, but it ignores the essential fact of blocking the source of ROS regeneration. Here, we report the single-atom catalysts (SACs) Pt/CeO2, which can effectively catalyze the breakdown of existing ROS and induce mitochondrial membrane potential (Δψm) depolarization by interfering with the α-glycerophosphate shuttle pathway and malate-aspartate shuttle pathway, indirectly triggering the self-clearance of dysfunctional mitochondria and thus eradicating the source of ROS generation. In a therapeutic model of Parkinson's disease (PD), Pt/CeO2 wrapped by neutrophil-like (HL-60) cell membranes and modified by rabies virus glycoprotein (RVG29) effectively crosses the blood-brain barrier (BBB), enters dopaminergic neurons entering the neuroinflammatory region breaking down existing ROS and inducing mitophagy by electrostatic adsorption targeting mitochondria to prevent ROS regeneration after catalyst discharge. This strategy of efficiently eliminating ROS at the lesion and fundamentally blocking the source of ROS production can address both symptoms and root causes and provides a mechanism of explanation and action target for the treatment of inflammation-related diseases.

Abstract
Gadolinium chelates for tumor magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) face challenges such as inadequate sensitivity, lack of selectivity, and risk of Gd leakage. This study presents a single-atom Gd nano-contrast agent (Gd-SA) that enhances tumor MRI. Isolated Gd atoms coordinated by six N atoms and two O atoms are atomically dispersed on a hollow carbon nanosphere, allowing the maximum utilization of Gd atoms with reduced risk of toxic Gd ion leakage. Owning to the large surface area and fast exchange of relaxed water molecules, Gd-SA shows excellent T1-weighted magnetic resonance enhancement with a r1 value of 11.05 mM-1 s-1 at 7 T, which is 3.6 times that of the commercial gadolinium-diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (Gd-DTPA). In vivo MRI results show that the Gd-SA has a higher spatial resolution and a wider imaging time window for tumors than Gd-DTPA, with low hematological, hepatic, and nephric toxicities. These advantages demonstrate the great potential of single-atom Gd-based nanomaterials as safe, efficient, and long-term MRI contrast agents for cancer diagnosis.

Abstract
Recently, there has been considerable interest in a new family of transition metal carbides, carbonitrides, and nitrides referred to as MXenes (Ti3C2Tx) due to the variety of their elemental compositions and surface terminations that exhibit many fascinating physical and chemical properties. As a result of their easy formability, MXenes may be combined with other materials, such as polymers, oxides, and carbon nanotubes, which can be used to tune their properties for various applications. As is widely known, MXenes and MXene-based composites have gained considerable prominence as electrode materials in the energy storage field. In addition to their high conductivity, reducibility, and biocompatibility, they have also demonstrated outstanding potential for applications related to the environment, including electro/photocatalytic water splitting, photocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction, water purification, and sensors. This review discusses MXene-based composite used in anode materials, while the electrochemical performance of MXene-based anodes for Li-based batteries (LiBs) is discussed in addition to key findings, operating processes, and factors influencing electrochemical performance.
