Abstract
Nanozymes, as a type of nanomaterials with enzymatic catalytic activity, have demonstrated tremendous potential in cancer treatment owing to their unique biomedical properties. However, the heterogeneity of tumors and the complex tumor microenvironment pose significant challenges to the in vivo catalytic efficacy of traditional nanozymes. Drawing inspiration from natural enzymes, scientists are now using biomimetic design to build nanozymes from the ground up. This approach aims to replicate the key characteristics of natural enzymes, including active structures, catalytic processes, and the ability to adapt to the tumor environment. This achieves selective optimization of nanozyme catalytic performance and therapeutic effects. This review takes a deep dive into the use of these biomimetically designed nanozymes in cancer treatment. It explores a range of biomimetic design strategies, from structural and process mimicry to advanced functional biomimicry. A significant focus is on tweaking the nanozyme structures to boost their catalytic performance, integrating them into complex enzyme networks similar to those in biological systems, and adjusting functions like altering tumor metabolism, reshaping the tumor environment, and enhancing drug delivery. The review also covers the applications of specially designed nanozymes in pan-cancer treatment, from catalytic therapy to improved traditional methods like chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and sonodynamic therapy, specifically analyzing the anti-tumor mechanisms of different therapeutic combination systems. Through rational design, these biomimetically designed nanozymes not only deepen the understanding of the regulatory mechanisms of nanozyme structure and performance but also adapt profoundly to tumor physiology, optimizing therapeutic effects and paving new pathways for innovative cancer treatment.

Abstract
Nanozymes with intrinsic enzyme-mimicking activities have shown great potential to become surrogates of natural enzymes in many fields by virtue of their advantages of high catalytic stability, ease of functionalization, and low cost. However, due to the lack of predictable descriptors, most of the nanozymes reported in the past have been obtained mainly through trial-and-error strategies, and the catalytic efficacy, substrate specificity, as well as practical application effect under physiological conditions, are far inferior to that of natural enzymes. To optimize the catalytic efficacies and functions of nanozymes in biomedical settings, recent studies have introduced biosystem-inspired strategies into nanozyme design. In this review, recent advances in the engineering of biosystem-inspired nanozymes by leveraging the refined catalytic structure of natural enzymes, simulating the behavior changes of natural enzymes in the catalytic process, and mimicking the specific biological processes or living organisms, are introduced. Furthermore, the currently involved biomedical applications of biosystem-inspired nanozymes are summarized. More importantly, the current opportunities and challenges of the design and application of biosystem-inspired nanozymes are discussed. It is hoped that the studies of nanozymes based on bioinspired strategies will be beneficial for constructing the new generation of nanozymes and broadening their biomedical applications.

Abstract
From the view of geometry, chirality is that an object cannot overlap with its mirror image, which has been a fundamental scientific problem in biology and chemistry since the 19th century. Chiral inorganic nanomaterials serve as ideal templates for investigating chiral transfer and amplification mechanisms between molecule and bulk materials, garnering widespread attentions. The chiroptical property of chiral plasmonic nanomaterials is enhanced through localized surface plasmon resonance effects, which exhibits distinctive circular dichroism (CD) response across a wide wavelength range. Recently, 3D chiral plasmonic nanomaterials are becoming a focal research point due to their unique characteristics and planar-independence. This review provides an overview of recent progresses in 3D chiral plasmonic nanomaterials studies. It begins by discussing the mechanisms of plasmonic enhancement of molecular CD response, following by a detailed presentation of novel classifications of 3D chiral plasmonic nanomaterials. Finally, the applications of 3D chiral nanomaterials such as biology, sensing, chiral catalysis, photology, and other fields have been discussed and prospected. It is hoped that this review will contribute to the flourishing development of 3D chiral nanomaterials.

Abstract
Understanding origin of asymmetric information encoded on chiral nanozymes is important in mediating enantioselective catalysis. Herein, the supramolecular chiral nanozymes constructed from P/M-polyaniline (P/M-PANI) nanotwists and metal ions (M2+ , M = Cu, Ni, Co, and Zn) are designed through thioglycolic acid (TA) without chiral molecules to show the regulated catalytic efficiency and enantioselectivity. With combination of chiral environment from supramolecular scaffolds and catalytic center from metal ions, the P-PANI-TA-M2+ as nanozymes show preference to 3,4-dihydroxy-S-phenylalanine (S-DOPA) oxidation while the M-PANI-TA-M2+ show better selectivity to R-DOPA oxidation. Among them, though the Cu2+ doped supramolecular nanotwists show the highest catalytic efficiency, the Co2+ doped ones with moderate catalytic efficiency can exhibit the best enantioselectivity with select factor as high as 2.07. The molecular dynamic (MD) simulation clarifies the mechanism of enantioselective catalysis caused by the differential kinetics with S/R-DOPA enantiomers adsorbed on chiral PANI surface and free in solution. This work systematically studies the synergistic effect between the chiral supramolecular nanostructures assembled by achiral species and metal ions as peroxidase-like catalytic centers to regulate the enantioselectivity, providing deep understanding of the origin of asymmetric catalysis and serving as strong foundation to guide the design of nanozymes with high enantioselectivity.

Abstract
Organic coatings on catalytic metal nanoparticles (NPs) typically hinder their activity due to the blocking of active sites. Therefore, considerable effort is made to remove organic ligands when preparing supported NP catalytic materials. Here, cationic polyelectrolyte coatings are shown to increase the catalytic activity of partially embedded gold nanoislands (Au NIs) toward transfer hydrogenation and oxidation reactions with anionic substrates compared to the activity of identical but uncoated Au NIs. Any potential steric hindrance caused by the coating is countered by a decrease in the activation energy of the reaction by half, resulting in overall enhancement. The direct comparison to identical but uncoated NPs isolates the role of the coating and provides conclusive evidence of enhancement. Our findings show that engineering the microenvironment of heterogeneous catalysts, creating hybrid materials that cooperatively interact with the reactants involved, is a viable and exciting path to improving their performance.

Abstract
Glucose oxidase (GOD) is an oxidoreductase that catalyzes the aerobic oxidation of glucose into hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and gluconic acid, which has been widely used in industrial raw materials production, biosensors and cancer treatment. However, natural GOD bears intrinsic disadvantages, such as poor stability and a complex purification process, which undoubtedly restricts its biomedical applications. Fortunately, several artificial nanomaterials have been recently discovered with a GOD-like activity and their catalytic efficiency toward glucose oxidation can be finely optimized for diverse biomedical applications in biosensing and disease treatments. In view of the notable progress of GOD-mimicking nanozymes, this review systematically summarizes the representative GOD-mimicking nanomaterials for the first time and depicts their proposed catalytic mechanisms. We then introduce the efficient modulation strategy to improve the catalytic activity of existing GOD-mimicking nanomaterials. Finally, the potential biomedical applications in glucose detection, DNA bioanalysis and cancer treatment are highlighted. We believe that the development of nanomaterials with a GOD-like activity will expand the application range of GOD-based systems and lead to new opportunities of GOD-mimicking nanomaterials for various biomedical applications.

Abstract
Chiral nanomaterials in biology play indispensable roles in maintaining numerous physiological processes, such as signaling, site-specific catalysis, transport, protection, and synthesis. Like natural chiral nanomaterials, chiral inorganic nanomaterials can also be established with similar size, charge, surface properties, and morphology. However, chiral inorganic nanomaterials usually exhibit extraordinary properties that are different from those of organic materials, such as high g-factor values, broad distribution range, and symmetrical mirror configurations. Because of these unique characteristics, there is great potential for application in the fields of biosensing, drug delivery, early diagnosis, bio-imaging, and disease therapy. Related research is summarized and discussed in this review to showcase the bio-functions and bio-applications of chiral inorganic nanomaterials, including the construction methods, classification and properties, and biological applications of chiral inorganic nanomaterials. Moreover, the deficiencies in existing studies are noted, and future development is prospected. This review will provide helpful guidance for constructing chiral inorganic nanomaterials with specific bio-functions for problem solving in living systems.

Abstract
Glucose monitoring is essential to evaluate the degree of glucose metabolism disorders. The enzymatic determination has been the most widely used method in glucose detection because of its high efficiency, accuracy, and sensitivity. Noble metal nanomaterials (NMs, i.e., Au, Ag, Pt, and Pd), inheriting their excellent electronic, optical, and enzyme-like properties, are classified as noble metal nanozymes (NMNZs). As the NMNZs are often involved in two series of reactions, the oxidation of glucose and the chromogenic reaction of peroxide, here the chemical mechanism by employing NMNZs with glucose oxidase (GOx) and peroxidase (POD) mimicking activities is briefly summarized first. Subsequently, the regulation strategies of the GOx-like, POD-like and tandem enzyme-like activities of NMNZs are presented in detail, including the materials, size, morphology, composition, and the reaction condition of the representative NMs. In addition, in order to further mimic the enantioselectivity of enzyme, the design of NMNZs with enantioselective recognition of d-glucose and l-glucose by using different chiral compounds (DNA, amino acids, and cyclodextrins) and molecular imprinting is further described in this review. Finally, the feasible solutions to the existing challenges and a vision for future development possibilities are discussed.

Abstract
Excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) may generate deleterious effects on biomolecules, such as DNA damage, protein oxidation and lipid peroxidation, causing cell and tissue damage and eventually leading to the pathogenesis of diseases, such as neurodegenerative diseases, ischemia/reperfusion ((I/R)) injury, and inflammatory diseases. Therefore, the modulation of ROS can be an efficient means to relieve the aforementioned diseases. Several studies have verified that antioxidants such as Mitoquinone (a mitochondrial-targeted coenzyme Q10 derivative) can scavenge ROS and attenuate related diseases. Nanozymes, defined as nanomaterials with intrinsic enzyme-like properties that also possess antioxidant properties, are hence expected to be promising alternatives for the treatment of ROS-related diseases. This review introduces the types of nanozymes with inherent antioxidant activities, elaborates on various strategies (eg, controlling the size or shape of nanozymes, regulating the composition of nanozymes and environmental factors) for modulating their catalytic activities, and summarizes their performances in treating ROS-induced diseases.

Abstract
Artificial organelles are compartmentalized nanoreactors, in which enzymes or enzyme-mimic catalysts exhibit cascade catalytic activities to mimic the functions of natural organelles. Importantly, research on artificial organelles paves the way for the bottom-up design of synthetic cells. Due to the separation effect of microcompartments, the catalytic reactions of enzymes are performed without the influence of the surrounding medium. The current techniques for synthesizing artificial organelles rely on the strategies of encapsulating enzymes into vesicle-structured materials or reconstituting enzymes onto the microcompartment materials. However, there are still some problems including limited functions, unregulated activities, and difficulty in targeting delivery that hamper the applications of artificial organelles. The emergence of nanozymes (nanomaterials with enzyme-like activities) provides novel ideas for the fabrication of artificial organelles. Compared with natural enzymes, nanozymes are featured with multiple enzymatic activities, higher stability, easier to synthesize, lower cost, and excellent recyclability. Herein, the most recent advances in nanozyme-based artificial organelles are summarized. Moreover, the benefits of compartmental structures for the applications of nanozymes, as well as the functional requirements of microcompartment materials are also introduced. Finally, the potential applications of nanozyme-based artificial organelles in biomedicine and the related challenges are discussed.

Abstract
Gold nanorods (NRs), pseudo-one-dimensional rod-shaped nanoparticles (NPs), have become one of the burgeoning materials in the recent years due to their anisotropic shape and adjustable plasmonic properties. With the continuous improvement in synthetic methods, a variety of materials have been attached around Au NRs to achieve unexpected or improved plasmonic properties and explore state-of-the-art technologies. In this review, we comprehensively summarize the latest progress on Au NRs, the most versatile anisotropic plasmonic NPs. We present a representative overview of the advances in the synthetic strategies and outline an extensive catalogue of Au-NR-based heterostructures with tailored architectures and special functionalities. The bottom-up assembly of Au NRs into preprogrammed metastructures is then discussed, as well as the design principles. We also provide a systematic elucidation of the different plasmonic properties associated with the Au-NR-based structures, followed by a discussion of the promising applications of Au NRs in various fields. We finally discuss the future research directions and challenges of Au NRs.

Abstract
Chiral growth and chirality transfer associated with plasmonic nanostructures have rejuvenated the field of chirality. As the precise regioselective growth of inorganic crystals into chiral shapes at the nanoscale is extremely challenging, "bottom-up" synthesis of intrinsically chiral nanoparticles with structural stability is obviously attractive and important. With the thiolated bimolecular cosurfactants, we demonstrated a chemical strategy for the synthesis of intrinsically helical plasmonic nanorods (HPNRs) with strong and tailorable plasmonic circular dichroism (PCD) responses, deriving from the zwitterionic interactions between the -NH3+ and -COO- groups of the cysteine molecules (Cys). The influence of structural parameters of HPNRs on PCD responses was analyzed systematically by theoretical simulations. Among the different structural parameters, the pitch depth was found to have the greatest impact on the PCD signals, in agreement with the experimental results. Moreover, the obtained HPNRs with the strong, tunable, and stable chiroptical properties were found to be able to induce circularly polarized luminescence of achiral luminophores. Due to the generality of this effect, this chiral plasmonic nanostructure may have great potential for use in the fields of chiral sensors, chiral catalysis, and displays.

Abstract
Nanomaterials with intrinsic catalytic activities (nanozyme) have drawn broad attention for various biomedical applications, with peroxidase-mimic nanozymes particularly attractive for cancer therapy due to their capability to catalyze the conversion of tumor-abundant H2O2 into more toxic hydroxyl radicals (˙OH) for effective tumor ablation. However, the facile surface modification of nanozymes for tumor-targeted delivery while retaining their catalytic activity remains a challenge. Here, we report an approach to functionalize the CuO nanozyme with DNA to enable targeted delivery and selective tumor destruction. We systematically studied the adsorption of DNA on the CuO surface, with special attention paid to the catalytic activity and DNA adsorption stability in the presence of various biological ligands. After gaining a fundamental understanding, a di-block DNA sequence was designed for adsorption on to the CuO surface, which allowed stable adsorption during in vivo circulation, passive accumulation into the tumor tissue, and the specific recognition of tumor cells, resulting in significant nanocatalytic tumor suppression in tumor xenograft mice models with no noticeable cytotoxicity. This work paves a way for the rational design of DNA-modified nanozymes for catalytic tumor therapy, and fundamentally, provides a new insight into the biointerface chemistry of CuO with DNA.

Abstract
Nanozymes aim to mimic enzyme activities. In addition to catalytic activity, nanozymes also need to have specificity and catalyze biologically relevant reactions under physiological conditions to fit in the definition of enzyme and to set nanozymes apart from typical inorganic catalysts. Previous discussions in the nanozyme field mainly focused on the types of reactions or certain analytical, biomedical or environmental applications. In this article, we discuss efforts made to mimic enzymes. First, the catalytic cycles are compared, where a key difference is specific substrate binding by enzymes versus non-specific substrate adsorption by nanozymes. We then reviewed efforts to engineer and surface-modify nanomaterials to accelerate reaction rates, strategies to graft affinity ligands and molecularly imprinted polymers to achieve specific catalysis, and methods to bring nanozyme reactions to neutral pH and ambient temperature. Most of the current nanozyme reactions used a few model chromogenic substrates of no biological relevance. Therefore, we also reviewed efforts to catalyze the conversion of biomolecules and biopolymers using nanozymes. By the efforts to close the gaps between nanozymes and enzymes, we believe nanozymes are catching up rapidly. Still, challenges exist in materials design to further improve nanozymes as true enzyme mimics and achieve impactful applications.

Abstract
Nanozymes as a newcomer in the artificial enzyme family have shown several advantages over natural enzymes such as their high stability in harsh environments, facile production on large scale, long storage time, low costs, and higher resistance to biodegradation. However, compared with natural enzymes, it is still a great challenge to design a nanozyme with high selectivity, especially high enantioselectivity. It is highly desirable and demanding to develop chiral nanozymes with high and on-demand enantioselectivity for practical applications. Herein, we present an unprecedented approach to construct chiral artificial peroxidase with ultrahigh enantioselectivity. Inspired by the structure of the natural enzyme horseradish peroxidase (HRP), we have constructed a series of stereoselective nanozymes (Fe3O4@Poly(AA)) by using the ferromagnetic nanoparticle (Fe3O4 NP) yolk as the catalytic core and amino acid-appended chiral polymer shell as the chiral selector. Among them, Fe3O4@Poly(d-Trp) exhibits the highest enantioselectivity. More intriguingly, their enantioselectivity will be readily reversed by replacing d-Trp with l-Trp. The selectivity factor is up to 5.38, even higher than that of HRP. Kinetic parameters, dialysis experiments, and molecular simulations together with activation energy reveal that the selectivity originates from the d-/l-Trp appended polymer shell, which can result in better affinity and catalytic activity to d-/l-tyrosinol. The artificial peroxidases have been used for asymmetric catalysis to prepare enantiopure d- or l-enantiomers. Besides, by using fluorescent labelled FITC-tyrosinolL and RhB-tyrosinolD, the artificial peroxidases can catalyze green or red fluorescent chiral tyrosinol to selectively label live yeast cells among yeast, S. aureus, E. coli and B. subtilis bacterial cells. This work opens a new avenue for better design of stereoselective artificial enzymes.

Abstract
Discrimination of enantiomers poses a scientific challenge as the chemical and physical properties of enantiomers are nearly identical. The chiral analysis is usually performed by separation techniques, including chromatography, electrophoresis, or optical instrumentation based on an interaction of the analyzed sample with a polarized beam of light. Here we present a novel method for a chiral screening based on a combination of the black phosphorus@Graphene nanocomposite and Raman spectroscopy. The nanocomposite allows to enhance the Raman signal with factors higher than 100 asymmetrically and provide altered signals for mixtures containing varying enantiomeric ratios of target compounds. Tryptophan, Phenylalanine, DOPA, Isoleucine, and Leucine were selected as model compounds; the method allows us to discriminate between mixtures with 10, 25, 50, 75, and 100% enantiomeric purity.

Abstract
Ligand-induced chirality in asymmetric CdSe/CdS core-shell nanocrystals (NCs) has been extensively applied in chiral biosensors, regioselective syntheses and assemblies, circularly polarized luminescence (CPL), and chiroptic-based devices due to their excellent physiochemical properties, such as the tunable quantum confinement effects, surface functionality, and chemical stability. Herein, we present CdSe/CdS NCs with various morphologies such as nanoflowers, tadpoles, and dot/rods (DRs) with chirality induced by surface chiral ligands. The observed circular dichroism (CD) and CPL activities are closely associated with the geometrical characteristics of the nanostructures, such as the shell thickness and the aspect ratio of the CdSe/CdS NCs. Furthermore, in situ observations of the growth of tadpoles with a single tail indicate that the CD response is mainly attributed to the CdS shell, which has a maximum tail length of ∼45 nm (approximately λ/10 of the incident light wavelength). On the other hand, the CPL activity is only related to the CdSe core, and the activity benefits from a thin CdS shell with a relatively high photoluminescence quantum yield (QY). Further theoretical models demonstrated the aspect-ratio-dependent g-factor and QY variations in these asymmetric nanostructures. These findings provide insights into not only the asymmetric synthesis of CdSe/CdS NCs, but also the rational design of CdSe/CdS nanostructures with tunable CD and CPL activities.

Abstract
Nanomaterials with enzyme-mimicking behavior (nanozymes) have attracted a lot of research interest recently. In comparison to natural enzymes, nanozymes hold many advantages, such as good stability, ease of production and surface functionalization. As the catalytic mechanism of nanozymes is gradually revealed, the application fields of nanozymes are also broadly explored. Beyond traditional colorimetric detection assays, nanozymes have been found to hold great potential in a variety of biomedical fields, such as tumor theranostics, antibacterial, antioxidation and bioorthogonal reactions. In this review, we summarize nanozymes consisting of different nanomaterials. In addition, we focus on the catalytic performance of nanozymes in biomedical applications. The prospects and challenges in the practical use of nanozymes are discussed at the end of this Minireview.

Abstract
Plasmon-enhanced light harvesting has been of great interest to enhance the catalytic efficiency of some composites or hybrids. The enhanced peroxidase-like activity of phosphorylated iron(III) porphyrin (TPPFe(III))-based nanocomposite, induced by localized surface plasmon resonance for a colorimetric assay, was developed in this study. Firstly, a phosphate group modification strategy was adopted to synthesize water-soluble iron(III) porphyrin materials. Then, the as-synthesized TPPFe(III) was covalently attached to core-shell gold nanorods (GNRs), GNR@Au2S/AuAgS, to form TPPFe(III)-GNR@Au2S/AuAgS nanocomposite, which shows greatly enhanced peroxidase-like activity compared to TPPFe(III). A mechanism for the enhanced peroxidase-like activity of TPPFe(III)-GNR@Au2S/AuAgS was proposed, which results from a synergic effect of hot electrons excited by localized surface plasmon resonance and photogenerated electrons of the TPPFe(III), verified by experiments. Furthermore, a fast colorimetric assay for the detection of H2O2 and glucose was established based on the unique property of TPPFe(III)-GNR@Au2S/AuAgS. This colorimetric assay was applied to determine practical human serum samples; satisfactory results demonstrate this method has high accuracy. The present study would not only provide some insights into the mechanism of plasmon-activated enzyme-like reactions, but also offer new strategies for improving the catalytic activity of a mimetic enzyme.

Abstract
Because of the high catalytic activities and substrate specificity, natural enzymes have been widely used in industrial, medical, and biological fields, etc. Although promising, they often suffer from intrinsic shortcomings such as high cost, low operational stability, and difficulties of recycling. To overcome these shortcomings, researchers have been devoted to the exploration of artificial enzyme mimics for a long time. Since the discovery of ferromagnetic nanoparticles with intrinsic horseradish peroxidase-like activity in 2007, a large amount of studies on nanozymes have been constantly emerging in the next decade. Nanozymes are one kind of nanomaterials with enzymatic catalytic properties. Compared with natural enzymes, nanozymes have the advantages such as low cost, high stability and durability, which have been widely used in industrial, medical, and biological fields. A thorough understanding of the possible catalytic mechanisms will contribute to the development of novel and high-efficient nanozymes, and the rational regulations of the activities of nanozymes are of great significance. In this review, we systematically introduce the classification, catalytic mechanism, activity regulation as well as recent research progress of nanozymes in the field of biosensing, environmental protection, and disease treatments, etc. in the past years. We also propose the current challenges of nanozymes as well as their future research focus. We anticipate this review may be of significance for the field to understand the properties of nanozymes and the development of novel nanomaterials with enzyme mimicking activities.

Abstract
DNA treatment of metal nanoparticles provides a potent tool for tuning their native properties and constructing advanced materials. However, there have been limited studies on interactions between DNA and nanomaterial-based artificial enzymes (nanozymes) to influence their intrinsic peroxidase-like properties. Here, we present the utilization of DNA as a capping ligand to engineer various bio-nanointerfaces for high-precise and adjustable regulation of catalytic behaviors of nanozymes toward the oxidation of substrates. The treatment of stiff double-stranded DNA only induced a negligible enhancement of the catalytic activity of nanozymes, and both coil-like single-stranded DNA and hairpin DNA-capped nanoparticles produced a medium signal increase. Interestingly, hybridization chain reaction (HCR) product-treated nanoparticles showed the highest peroxidase-like activities among four DNA structures. Furthermore, significant parameters that influence HCR process and the modulation of catalysis, such as the concentration of the hairpin DNA, the ionic strength, and the amount of nanozyme, were also systematically investigated. On the basis of HCR amplification and iron oxide (Fe3O4) nanoparticles, we develop a simple, fast, label-free, and sensitive colorimetric strategy for sensing of a Yersinia pestis-relevant DNA sequence with a detection limit as low as 100 pM as well as single nucleotide polymorphism discrimination. These results highlight DNA engineering as a facile strategy to regulate the catalytic activities of nanozymes and understand the interactions between metallic nanoparticles and nucleic acids for biosensing applications.

Abstract
The interaction between incident light and surface electrons in conductive nanoparticles produces localized plasmon oscillations with a resonant frequency that strongly depends on the composition, size, geometry, and dielectric environment. Hybrid heterostructure materials combining two or more materials in one structure represent a powerful way to achieve unique properties and multifunctionality compared to those of the individual nanoparticle components. Hybrid gold nanorods and gold nanoclusters (GNR/AuNCs) heterostructures prepared by intimate integration of GNRs with AuNCs exhibit both localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) property and peroxidase-like activity. It is found that the catalytic activity of the AuNC/GNR heterostructure could be remarkably enhanced by LSPR induced by photon-plasmon coupling in the visible to near-infrared (NIR) region. Meanwhile, the catalytic activity of enzyme-like AuNC/GNRs may be regulated by immunoreactions to realize specific recognition of a target analyte. Accordingly, a fast colorimetric assay within 5 min for the detection of prostate specific antigen (PSA) was developed based on a AuNC/GNRs heterostructure mask regulated by the target molecule under photon-plasmon coupling. The color intensity is inversely proportional to the PSA concentration, and quantitative analysis may be achieved in a range of 10 and 200 pg mL-1. This sensor was practically applied to detect PSA levels in prostate cancer serum samples and the determined values agreed well with those measured by the hospital using standard methods. This indicates that the AuNC/GNRs heterostructure-based assay has high accuracy for the analysis of practical samples. Moreover, the new method has the advantages of very fast determination and low sample volume requirements.

Abstract
Although various nanomaterials have been designed for biocatalysis, few of them can accelerate chemical reactions with high selectivity and stereocontrol, which remains them from being perfect alternatives to nature enzymes. Herein, inspired by the natural enzymes, an enantioselective nanomaterial has been constructed, with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) as active centers, chiral cysteine (Cys) as selectors for chiral recognition, and expanded mesoporous silica (EMSN) as a skeleton of the artificial enzyme. In the oxidation of chiral 3,4-dihydroxy-phenylalanine (DOPA), the nanozyme with d-Cys shows preference to l-DOPA while the artificial enzyme with l-Cys shows preference to d-DOPA. Subsequent calculation of apparent steady-state kinetic parameters and activation energies together with molecular dynamics (MD) simulations showed that the different affinity precipitated by hydrogen bonding formation between chiral Cys and DOPA is the origin of chiral selectivity.

Synthesis and Plasmonic Chiroptical Studies of Sodium Deoxycholate Modified Silver Nanoparticles. MATERIALS 2018; 11:ma11081291.

Abstract
Sodium deoxycholate modified silver nanoparticles prepared in the presence of sodium deoxycholate as a chiral inducer exhibit plasmonic circular dichroism (CD) signals. The plasmon-induced chirality arises from the presence of chiral molecules (sodium deoxycholate) on the surface of Ag nanoparticles, which transfer their chiral properties to the visible wavelength range due to the Coulomb interactions between the chiral molecules and plasmonic nanoparticles. The prepared Ag nanoparticles (NPs) exhibit distinct line shapes of plasmonic CD, which can be tailored by varying the pH values of the solutions. A mechanism was proposed to explain the generation of the distinct plasmonic CD shapes, which indicated that the arrangements of chiral molecules in the plasmonic hot spots between Ag NPs are crucial for the induced plasmonic CD.

Abstract
Catalyzed oxygen insertion into C-H bonds represents a continuous challenge in chemistry. Particularly, driving this process at ambient temperature and aqueous media represents a "holy grail" in catalysis. We report on the catalyzed cascade transformations of l-tyrosine or l-phenylalanine to dopachrome in the presence of l-ascorbic acid/H2O2 as oxidizing mixture and CuFe-Prussian Blue-like nanoparticles, Fe3O4 nanoparticles or Au nanoparticles as catalysts. The process involves the primary transformation of l-tyrosine to l-DOPA that is further oxidized to dopachrome. The transformation of l-phenylalanine to dopachrome in the presence of CuFe-Prussian Blue-like nanoparticles and l-ascorbic acid/H2O2 involves in the first step the formation of l-tyrosine and, subsequently, the operation of the catalytic oxidation cascade of l-tyrosine to l-DOPA and dopachrome. Electron spin resonance experiments demonstrate that ascorbate radicals and hydroxyl radicals play cooperative functions in driving the different oxygen-insertion processes. In addition, the aerobic elecrocatalyzed oxidation of l-tyrosine to dopachrome in the presence of naphthoquinone-modified Fe3O4 nanoparticles and l-ascorbic acid is demonstrated. In this system, magnetic-field attraction of the naphthoquinone-modified Fe3O4 nanoparticles onto the electrode allows the quinone-mediated electrocatalyzed reduction of O2 to H2O2 (bias potential -0.5 V vs SCE). The electrogenerated H2O2 is then utilized to promote the transformation of l-tyrosine to dopachrome in the presence of l-ascorbic acid and Fe3O4 catalyst.

Abstract
A blend of Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) and SiO₂ microspheres in N,N-Dimethylformamide (DMF) underwent phase inversion to form a PVDF/SiO₂ membrane with SiO₂ microspheres in the membrane's pores. Subsequently, the SiO₂ microspheres have been used as platforms for in site Ag nanoparticles (NPs) synthesis, forming a composite membrane. Benefitting from the full exposure of Ag NPs to the reactants, the composite membrane shows high catalytic reactivity when catalyzing the reduction of p-nitrophenol under a cross-flow. The catalytic reaction follows the first-order kinetics, and the reaction rate increases with an increase in the amount of Ag NPs in the membrane, the reaction temperature, and the operating pressure. What is more, highly purified products can be produced and separated from the reactants in a timely manner by using the composite membrane.

Abstract
Asymmetric synthesis of molecules is of crucial importance to obtain pure chiral compounds, which are of primary interest in many areas including medicine, biotechnology, and chemistry. Various methods have been used very successfully to increase the enantiomeric yield of reaction pathways, but there is still room for the development of alternative highly enantioselective reaction concepts, either as a scientific challenge of tremendous fundamental significance, or owing to the increasing demand for enantiopure products, e.g., in the pharmaceutical industry. In this context, we report here a strategy for the synthesis of chiral compounds, based on pulsed electrochemical conversion. We illustrate the approach with the stereospecific electroreduction of a prochiral model molecule at chiral mesoporous metal structures, resulting in an enantiomeric excess of over 90%. This change of paradigm opens up promising reaction schemes for the straightforward synthesis of high-added-value molecules.

Abstract
Stereoselectivity towards substrates is one of the most important characteristics of enzymes. Amino acids, as cofactors of many enzymes, play important roles in stereochemistry. Herein, chiral nanozymes were constructed by grafting a series of d- or l-amino acids onto the surfaces of ceria (cerium oxide) nanoparticles. We selected the most commonly used drug for combating Parkinson's disease, that is, 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) enantiomers, as examples for chiral catalysis. Through detailed kinetic studies of cerium oxide nanoparticles (CeNPs) modified with different eight amino acids, we found that phenylalanine-modified CeNP was optimal for the DOPA oxidation reaction and showed excellent stereoselectivity towards its enantiomers. l-Phenylalanine-modified CeNPs showed higher catalytic ability for oxidation of d-DOPA, while d-phenylalanine-modified CeNPs were more effective towards l-DOPA. Taken together, the results indicated that stereoselective nanozyme can be constructed by grafting nanoparticles with chiral molecules. This work may inspire better design of chiral nanozymes.

Abstract
Fluorescence microscopy and electrochemistry were employed to examine capping agent dynamics in silver nanoparticles capped with DNA intercalated with ethidium bromide, a fluorescent molecule. The capped NPs were studied first electrochemically, demonstrating that the intercalation of the capping agent promotes oxidation of the silver core, occurring at 0.50 V (vs. Ag, compared with 1.15 V for Ag NPs capped in DNA alone). Second, fluorescence electrochemical microscopy revealed that the electron transfer from the nanoparticles is gated by the capping agent, allowing dynamic insights unobservable using electrochemistry alone.

Abstract
The surface/interface matters as the size of materials enters the nanoscale. Control of surface/interface, therefore, plays an important role in creating novel nanostructures with unusual properties and in obtaining devices with high performance. Herein, we demonstrate unique interface regulation in fabricating nanostructures with strong plasmonic circular dichroism (PCD). With chiral cysteine (Cys) as surface-modulating molecules, starfruit-like Au nanoparticles (NPs) with high PCD responses are obtained via Au overgrowth on Au nanorods (AuNRs). Pre-incubation of the AuNRs with Cys is vital in achieving strong and reproducible PCD responses. Instead of contributing to PCD signals, the pre-adsorbed Cys molecules are found to play a major role in manipulating the Au growth mode and thus the formation of hotspots within the shell. Strong PCD signal mainly comes from the entrapped Cys molecules within the hotspots and is enhanced via local field effect. The distinct roles of the same ligands at different surfaces/interfaces are elucidated. Furthermore, our findings contribute to the strategy of utilizing interface modulation to fabricate complex nanostructures with novel properties.
