Abstract
Unsafe food additives pose a significant threat to global health, especially in developing countries. Many existing methods rely on clean laboratories, complicated optics equipment, trained personnel and lengthy detection time, which are not suitable for onsite food safety inspections in emergency situations, peculiarly in impoverished areas. In this paper, a fast and visual onsite method is designed for the detection and quantification of additives in food safety by engineering a nanohybrid (MoS2/SDBS/Cu-CuFe2O4)-based catalysis. Interestingly, the nanohybrid presents peroxidase-like mimetic activity toward the substrate containing 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), which are then integrated simply into a detection kit. The blue oxidated TMB in this kit can be converted completely to colorless by some bio-molecule additives in commercial food, such as glutathione (GSH), cysteine (Cys), and ascorbic acid (AA). Remarkably, this process takes just less than 2 min and the detection limits are 2.8 nM, 5.5 nM and 47 nM, respectively. These results show excellent repeatability with a statistical analysis with (*P < 0.05) over 30 tests. Next, the images of the color changes can be captured clearly using a smartphone by red-green-blue (RGB) channels, which provides an opportunity for the development of field-operation device. Additionally, our approach is applied to some targets-indicative foods, showing a recovery range between 95.8 % and 104.2 %, offering an attractive and promising pathway for future practical food safety inspection applications. More importantly, this method can easily be extended to the detection of reducing substances in other analytical fields.

Abstract
The escalating oxidative stress has heightened the daily human demand for diverse antioxidants. Therefore, development of the novel approaches to assess the total antioxidant capacity (TAC) of various nutrients is essential. In this study, drawing inspiration from the active site of native peroxidase enzymes, a novel peroxidase (POD)-like nanozyme was developed based on the cobalt ferrite (CoFe2O4) nanoparticles functionalized with different catalytic amino acids. Based on the TMB/H2O2 colorimetric system, the most substantial enhancement in POD-like activity was obtained by the glutamic acid coating among different charged amino acids studied, with more than 74% increase in specific activity compared to the bare CoFe2O4. A signal-off colorimetric sensing platform based on the obtained nanobiocatalyst was developed for the accurate quantification of the antioxidant capacity of phenolic compounds and vitamin C. The sensitive and selective quantification of ascorbic acid, tannic acid, gallic acid, cyanidin-3-glucoside, and quercetin was obtained by this colorimetric method.

Abstract
Although nanozyme engineering has made tremendous progress, there is a huge gap between them and natural enzymes due to the enormous challenge of precisely adjusting the geometric and electronic structure of active sites. Considering that intentionally adjusting the metal-carrier interactions may bring the promising catalytic activity, in this work, a novel Mo atom nanocluster is successfully synthesized using nitrogen-doped Mxene (MoACs/N-MXene) nanozymes as carriers. The constructed MoACs/N-MXene displays excellent peroxidase-like catalytic activity and kinetics, outweighing its N-MXene and Mo nanoparticles (NPs)-MXene references and natural horse radish peroxidase. This work not only reports a successful example of MoACs/N-MXene nanozyme as a guide for achieving peroxidase-mimic performance of nanozymes for colorimetric glutathione sensing at 0.29 μM, but also expands the application prospects of two-dimensional MXene nanosheets by reasonably introducing metal atomic clusters and nonmetal atom doping and exploring related nanozyme properties.

Abstract
Bacterial infections pose a serious threat to human health, and the emergence of superbugs and the growing antibiotic resistance phenomenon have made the development of novel antimicrobial products. In this paper, an ultrasmall Cu, N co-doped carbon dots (CDs-Cu-N) with excellent peroxidase mimic activity and enhanced catalase mimic activity was successfully prepared and anchored to an injectable chitosan (CS)-based hybrid hydrogel. As expected, the CDs-Cu-N-H2O2-CS hybrid hydrogel maintains the excellent enzyme-mimicking properties of CDs-Cu-N and shows superior antibacterial property, which has been proven to effectively promote the healing of S. aureus-infected wounds with good biocompatibility. Benefitting from the dual-enzyme-mimic activity of CDs-Cu-N, the hybrid hydrogel not only can catalyze the generation of highly toxic ROS from low concentration of H2O2 to inhibit the bacterial infections, but also can significantly promote the wound tissue repair and regeneration by improving the anoxic microenvironment and promoting neovascularization. In addition, this hybrid hydrogel also possessed excellent injectability and moldability. It can adapt to various the irregular shapes of acute wounds, maintaining a moist and safe microenvironment while prolonging the action time of nanozyme on wounds, thus promoting wound healing. This injectable hybrid hydrogel shows great potential applications in the field of wound infection management.

Folic acid capping Bi 3+-doped Ag quantum dots for enzyme-like dual-mode recognition of toxic S 2- and visual sensing of NO 2. Anal Chim Acta 2024; 1319:342963. [PMID: 39122276 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2024.342963] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2024] [Revised: 07/06/2024] [Accepted: 07/08/2024] [Indexed: 08/12/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND NO2- and S2- are two kinds of common toxic anions widely distributed in environmental water, soil and food products. Human beings have suffered a lot of diseases from intake of excessive NO2- or S2-, i.e., infantile methemoglobin, cancer and even to death. Although tremendous efforts have been afforded to monitor NO2- and S2-, most were high instrument-depended with complex processing procedures. To keep food safety and to protect human health, it will be a huge challenge to develop a convenient and efficient way to monitor S2- and NO2- in practice. RESULTS A kind of folic acid capping Bi3+-doped Ag quantum dots (FA@Bi3+-Ag QDs) was developed for the first time by one-pot homogeneous reduced self-assembly. Not only did FA@Bi3+-Ag QDs possess intrinsic fluorescent property, it expressed synergistic peroxidase-like activity to catalyze the redox of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) and H2O2 with Km/vmax of 0.087 mM/6.61 × 10-8 M s-1 and 6.42 mM/6.25 × 10-7 M s-1 respectively. Interestingly, trace S2- could exclusively alter its fluorescent property and peroxidase-like activity, exhibiting significant hypochromic and "turn-on" fluorescent effects. While trace NO2- could make FA@Bi3+-Ag QDs-TMB-H2O2 system hyperchromic. Under the optimized conditions, FA@Bi3+-Ag QDs were applied for dual-mode recognition of S2- and visual sensing of NO2- in real food samples with satisfactory recoveries, i.e., 100.7-107.9 %/95.8-104.7 % and 97.2-104.8 % respectively. The synergistic enzyme-mimic mechanism of FA@Bi3+-Ag QDs and its selective response mechanisms to S2- and NO2- were also proposed. SIGNIFICANCE This represents the first nanozyme-based FA@Bi3+-Ag QDs system for dual-mode recognition of S2- and visual sensing of NO2-, well meeting the basic requirement in drinking water set by WHO. It will offer a promising way for multi-mode monitoring of different pollution using the same nanozyme-based sensor.

Abstract
Hypoxanthine is a promising index for evaluating the freshness of various aquatic products. Combined the hydrogels containing upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs), Co3O4 NPs, and N-ethyl-N-(3-sulfopropyl)-3-methylaniline sodium salt/4-amino-antipyrine (TOPS/4-AAP) with a smartphone, a portable sensor was developed for the convenient, sensitive detection of hypoxanthine. With the H2O2 from xanthine oxidase (XOD)-catalyzed reactions of hypoxanthine, the fluorescence of UCNPs was effectively quenched by the purple product produced from the oxidization of TOPS/4-AAP catalyzed by Co3O4 NPs exhibiting peroxidase activity, among which the color change could be transformed into digital signals for quantification of hypoxanthine. The Green value in the RGB analysis of the fluorescence image was negatively proportional to hypoxanthine concentration in the range of 2.5-20 mg/L with a detection limit of 0.69 mg/L and a quantitation limit of 2.30 mg/L. Finally, this sensor was applied for hypoxanthine detection in real aquatic products, showing potential application for freshness evaluation of aquatic products.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 475:134884. [PMID: 38878434 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2024.134884] [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: 01/26/2024] [Revised: 03/17/2024] [Accepted: 06/10/2024] [Indexed: 06/27/2024]
Abstract
Nanoplastics (NPs), identified as emerging pollutants, pose a great risk to environment and global public health, exerting profound influences on the prevalence and dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). Despite evidence suggesting that nano-sized plastic particles can facilitate the horizontal gene transfer (HGT) of ARGs, it is imperative to explore strategies for inhibiting the transfer of ARGs. Currently, limited information exists regarding the characteristics of environmentally aged NPs and their impact on ARGs propagation. Herein, we investigated the impact of photo-aged NPs on the transfer of ARG-carrying plasmids into Escherichia coli (E. coli) cells. Following simulated sunlight irradiation, photo-aged nano-sized polystyrene plastics (PS NPs) exhibited multiple enzyme-like activities, including peroxidase (POD) and oxidase (OXD), leading to a burst of reactive oxygen species (ROS). At relatively low concentrations (0.1, 1 μg/mL), both pristine and aged PS NPs facilitated the transfer of pUC19 and pHSG396 plasmids within E. coli due to moderate ROS production and enhanced cell membrane permeability. Intriguingly, at relatively high concentrations (5, 10 μg/mL), aged PS NPs significantly suppressed plasmids transformation. The non-unidirectional impact of aged PS NPs involved the overproduction of ROS (•OH and •O2-) via nanozyme activity, directly degrading ARGs and damaging plasmid structure. Additionally, oxidative damage to bacteria resulted from the presence of much toxic free radicals, causing physical damage to cell membranes, reduction of the SOS response and restriction of adenosine-triphosphate (ATP) supply, ultimately leading to inactivation of recipient cells. This study unveils the intrinsic multienzyme-like activity of environmentally aged NPs, highlighting their potential to impede the transfer and dissemination of ARGs.

Abstract
Glutathione (GSH) is an essential antioxidant in the human body, but its detection is difficult due to the interference of complex components in serum. Herein, hollow double-layer Pt@CeO2 nanospheres were developed as oxidase mimetics, and the light-assisted oxidase mimetics effects were found. The oxidase activity was enhanced significantly by utilizing the synergistic effect of Schottky junction and the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of Pt under UV light. A novel GSH colorimetric-fluorescent-SERS sensing platform was established, with the sensing performance notably boosted by using the light-assisted oxidase mimetics effects. This platform boasts an exceptionally low detection limit (LOD) of 0.084 μM, while the detection time was shortened from 10 min to just 2 min. The anti-interference detection with high recovery rate (96.84%-107.4 %) in real serum made it be promising for practical application.

Abstract
Engineering multimetallic nanocatalysts with the entropy-mediated strategy to reduce reaction activation energy is regarded as an innovative and effective approach to facilitate efficient heterogeneous catalysis. Accordingly, conformational entropy-driven high-entropy alloys (HEAs) are emerging as a promising candidate to settle the catalytic efficiency limitations of nanozymes, attributed to their versatile active site compositions and synergistic effects. As proof of the high-entropy nanozymes (HEzymes) concept, elaborate PdMoPtCoNi HEA nanowires (NWs) with abundant active sites and tuned electronic structures, exhibiting peroxidase-mimicking activity comparable to that of natural horseradish peroxidase are reported. Density functional theory calculations demonstrate that the enhanced electron abundance of HEA NWs near the Fermi level (EF) is facilitated via the self-complementation effect among the diverse transition metal sites, thereby boosting the electron transfer efficiency at the catalytic interface through the cocktail effect. Subsequently, the HEzymes are integrated with a portable electronic device that utilizes Internet of Things-driven signal conversion and wireless transmission functions for point-of-care diagnosis to validate their applicability in digital biosensing of urinary biomarkers. The proposed HEzymes underscore significant potential in enhancing nanozymes catalysis through tunable electronic structures and synergistic effects, paving the way for reformative advancements in nano-bio analysis.

Abstract
cGAS/STING pathway, which is highly related to tumor hypoxia, is considered as a potential target for remodeling the immunosuppressive microenvironment of solid tumors. Metal ions, such as Mn2+, activate the cGAS/STING pathway, but their efficacy in cancer therapy is limited by insufficient effect on immunogenic tumor cell death of a single ion. Here, we evaluate the association between tumor hypoxia and cGAS/STING inhibition and report a polymetallic-immunotherapy strategy based on large mesoporous trimetal-based nanozyme (AuPdRh) coordinated with Mn2+ (Mn2+@AuPdRh) to activate cGAS/STING signaling for robust adaptive antitumor immunity. Specifically, the inherent CAT-like activity of this polymetallic Mn2+@AuPdRh nanozyme decomposes the endogenous H2O2 into O2 to relieve tumor hypoxia induced suppression of cGAS/STING signaling. Moreover, the Mn2+@AuPdRh nanozyme displays a potent near-infrared-II photothermal effect and strong POD-mimic activity; and the generated hyperthermia and •OH radicals synergistically trigger immunogenic cell death in tumors, releasing abundant dsDNA, while the delivered Mn2+ augments the sensitivity of cGAS to dsDNA and activates the cGAS-STING pathway, thereby triggering downstream immunostimulatory signals to kill primary and distant metastatic tumors. Our study demonstrates the potential of metal-based nanozyme for STING-mediated tumor polymetallic-immunotherapy and may inspire the development of more effective strategies for cancer immunotherapy.

Abstract
In recent years, using pharmacological ascorbic acid has emerged as a promising therapeutic approach in cancer treatment, owing to its capacity to induce extracellular hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) production in solid tumors. The H2O2 is then converted into cytotoxic hydroxyl free radicals (HO˙) by redox-active Fe2+ inside cells. However, the high dosage of ascorbic acid required for efficacy is hampered by adverse effects such as kidney stone formation. In a recent study, we demonstrated the efficient catalytic conversion of H2O2 to HO˙ by wüstite (Fe1-xO) nanoparticles (WNPs) through a heterogenous Fenton reaction. Here, we explore whether WNPs can enhance the therapeutic potential of ascorbic acid, thus mitigating its dose-related limitations. Our findings reveal distinct pH dependencies for WNPs and ascorbic acid in the Fenton reaction and H2O2 generation, respectively. Importantly, WNPs exhibit the capability to either impede or enhance the cytotoxic effect of ascorbic acid, depending on the spatial segregation of the two reagents by cellular compartments. Furthermore, our study demonstrates that treatment with ascorbic acid promotes the polarization of WNP-loaded macrophages toward a pro-inflammatory M1 phenotype, significantly suppressing the growth of 4T1 breast cancer cells. This study highlights the importance of orchestrating the interplay between ascorbic acid and nanozymes in cancer therapy and presents a novel macrophage-based cell therapy approach.

Abstract
Hydrolytic nanozyme-based visual colorimetry has emerged as a promising strategy for the detection of aluminum ions. However, most studies focus on simulating the structure of natural enzymes while neglecting to regulate the rate of hydrolysis-related steps, leading to low enzyme-like activity for hydrolytic nanozymes. Herein, we constructed a ruthenium dioxide (RuO2) in situ embedded cerium oxide (CeO2) nanozyme (RuO2/CeO2) with a Lewis acid-base pair (Ce-O-Ru-OH), which can simulate the catalytic behavior of phosphatase (PPase) and can be quantitatively quenched by Al3+ to achieve accurate and sensitive Al3+ colorimetric sensing detection. The incorporation of Ru into CeO2 nanorods accelerates the dissociation of H2O, followed by subsequent combination of hydroxide species to Lewis acidic Ce-O sites. This synergistic effect facilitates substrate activation and significantly enhances the hydrolysis activity of the nanozyme. The results show that the RuO2/CeO2 nanozyme exhibits a limit of detection as low as 0.5 ng/mL. We also demonstrate their efficacy in detecting Al3+ in various practical food samples. This study offers novel insights into the advancement of highly sensitive hydrolytic nanozyme engineering for sensing applications.

Abstract
We have prepared a novel assembly with copper nanoclusters (CuNCs) and imidazolium-based gemini surfactants (different chain lengths). These novel mimic enzymes formed through the assembly of nanocluster-gemini surfactants have been utilized in creating colorimetric sensors to detect biomolecules. Yet, understanding the method for detecting glutathione (GSH) and its sensing mechanism using this specific assembly-based colorimetric sensor poses a significant challenge. Because of the role of surface ligands, the complexes of cysteine-capped CuNCs (Cys-CuNCs) and gemini surfactants exhibit strong amphiphilicity, enabling them to self-assemble like a molecular amphiphile. We have investigated the kinetics and catalytic capabilities of this Cys-CuNCs@gemini surfactant assembly through peroxidase-like activity. Additionally, a sensitive and simple-to-use colorimetric sensing approach for glutathione (GSH) is also disclosed here, demonstrating a low limit of detection, by using this peroxidase-like activity of Cys-CuNCs@gemini surfactant assemblies. Thus, the remarkable advantages of the Cys-CuNCs@gemini surfactant nanozyme make it suitable for the precise colorimetric detection of GSH, demonstrating excellent sensitivity and reliable selectivity. Additionally, it performs well in detecting GSH in various soft drinks.

Abstract
The emerging cell death modality of ferroptosis has garnered increasing attention for antitumor treatment but still suffers from low therapeutic efficacy. A metal-organic frameworks (MOFs)-based magnetic nanozyme (PZFH) comprising porphyrin-based Zr-MOF (PCN) on zinc ferrite (ZF) nanoparticles modified with hyaluronic acid, delivering excellent magnetophotonic response for efficient ferroptosis, is reported here. PZFH shows multienzyme-like cascade activity encompassing a photon-triggered oxidase-like catalysis to generate O2 -, which is converted to H2O2 by superoxide dismutase-like activity and subsequent ·OH by magneto-promoted peroxidase (POD) behavior. Newly formed Fe─N coordination and increased Fe2+/Fe3+ levels in the PZFH contribute to the enhanced POD activity, which is further enhanced by accelerated surface electron transfer when exposure to alternated magnetic field. Accumulation of lipid peroxides is eventually accomplished through the conversion of ·OH radicals and singlet oxygen (1O2) produced through laser irradiation. When combined with the depletion of inhibition of glutathione and glutathione peroxidase 4, PZFH exhibits significantly enhanced ferroptosis in tumor-bearing mice, offering insights into nanomedicine for ferroptosis and holding great promise in clinical antitumor therapies.

Abstract
Single-atom nanozymes (SANs) have become a breakthrough in atomically precise catalysis, which relies on the catalytic active site formed by the single-atom itself. From this angle, SANs and their advantages compared to natural enzymes as well as spaces for their application are emphasized. The SANs have outstanding control over their catalytic activities; this is compared with bulk materials and natural enzymes. The structure of the SANs has very promising potential for the next generation of biosensing and biomedical devices and environmental remediation. Although their capabilities are high, difficulties still arise. The specificity, scalability, biosafety, and catalysis mechanisms raise additional issues that require further research. We build up a vision of the perspectives of the better implementation of SANs, which are designed for diagnostic purposes, improving industrial technologies, and creating new sustainable technologies in the food processing industry. AI and machine learning systems may clarify the structure-performance relationship of SANs for improved material and process selectivity. The future of SANs is very promising, and by addressing these challenges and leveraging advancements in artificial intelligence and materials science, SANs have the potential to become powerful tools for a sustainable future.

Abstract
The biomimetic enzyme cascade system plays a key role in biosensing as a sophisticated signal transduction and amplification strategy. However, constructing a regulated enzyme cascade sensing system remains challenging due to the mismatch of multiple enzyme activities and poor stability. Herein, we design an efficient dual-enhanced enzyme cascade hybrid system (UFD-DEC) containing DNA-controlled nanozymes (Fe-cdDNA) and enzyme (urease) via combining the electrostatic contact effect with the hydrogel-directed confinement effect. Precise modulation of Fe-cdDNA nanozyme by DNA offers a means to control its catalytic efficiency. This regulated UFD-DEC system accelerates the reaction rate and provides remarkable stability compared with the free enzyme system. Benefiting from the plasticity properties of hydrogels, a "lab-in-a-tube" platform was constructed by encapsulating UFD-DEC in a microcentrifuge tube. Such a UFD-DEC-based hydrogel tube exhibits sufficient adaptability to profile urea when used in conjunction with a smartphone-assisted image processing algorithm, which on-site delivers urea information with a detection limit of 0.12 mmol L-1. This customizable and inexpensive miniaturized biosensor platform for monitoring urea may facilitate point-of-care testing applications.

Abstract
Reproducing human visual functions with artificial devices is a long-standing goal of the neuromorphic domain. However, emulating the chemical language communication of the visual system in fluids remains a grand challenge. Here, a "multi-color" hydrogel-based photoelectrochemical retinomorphic synapse is reported with unique chemical-ionic-electrical signaling in an aqueous electrolyte that enables, e.g., color perception and biomolecule-mediated synaptic plasticity. Based on the specific enzyme-catalyzed chromogenic reactions, three multifunctional colored hydrogels are developed, which can not only synergize with the Bi2S3 photogate to recognize the primary colors but also synergize with a given polymeric channel to promote the long-term memory of the system. A synaptic array is further constructed for sensing color images and biomolecule-coded information communication. Taking advantage of the versatile biochemistry, the biochemical-driven reversible photoelectric response of the cone cell is further mimicked. This work introduces rich chemical designs into retinomorphic devices, providing a perspective for replicating the human visual system in fluids.

Abstract
As a new type of artificial enzyme, a nanozyme is an ideal substitute for natural enzymes and has been successfully applied in many fields. However, in the application of biomolecular detection, most nanozymes have the disadvantages of long reaction times or high detection limits, prompting researchers to search for new efficient nanozymes. In this work, the enzyme-like activities of three polyoxometalate-based iron-organic complexes ([Fe(bpp)2](Mo6O19), [Fe(bpp)2]2(Mo8O26)·2CH3OH, and [Fe(bpp)2]4H[Na(Mo8O26)]3), namely, FeMo6, Fe2Mo8, and Fe4Mo8Na, were analyzed. All three polyoxometalate-based iron-organic complexes were found to be capable of catalyzing hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to oxidize 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine and o-phenylenediamine, resulting in visible color changes, further exhibiting peroxidase-like activity. Results showed that Fe4Mo8Na had more active sites due to its long chain structure, endowing more prominent peroxidase-like activity compared with Fe2Mo8 and FeMo6. A colorimetric sensing platform for H2O2 and ascorbic acid detection based on Fe4Mo8Na was established. The linear response range for H2O2 detection was 0.5-100 μM, and the detection limit was 0.143 μM. The linear response for ascorbic acid detection ranges from 0 to 750 μM with a detection limit of 1.07 μM. This study provides a new perspective for developing new nanozymes and expanding the sensing and detection application of nanozymes.

[PMID: 39068841 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2024.07.193] [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: 05/28/2024] [Revised: 07/18/2024] [Accepted: 07/23/2024] [Indexed: 07/30/2024]
Abstract
NH2-MIL-88B (Fe) (MOF) is a promising photocatalytic material for antitumor therapy because of its distinctive electronic structure. However, inadequate separation of photo-generated electrons and slow reaction rate in low/high-valence iron (Fe) cycles limit their clinical application. In the present study, "electronic storage station" as a ligand-to-metal charge transfer bridge bond was constructed to inhibit recombination of electron/hole under 650 nm laser irradiation. Cupric (Cu) ions and gallic acid (GA) were self-assembled into a MOF (denoted as CGMOF) to create an FeO(GA)Cu bridge bond. GA, characterized by robust electron delocalization and abundant electron-donating groups, significantly enhances electron transfer efficiency for photodynamic therapy (PDT). CGMOF can respond to endogenous glutathione and release cuprous ions, accelerating the iron ion/ferrous ion cycles for chemodynamic therapy (CDT). The released Fe species can serve as T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging contrast. Extended X-ray absorption fine structure spectra confirmed the presence of GA-containing FeOCu bonds in CGMOF. Furthermore, a series of photo-electrochemical tests confirmed that the formation of FeO(GA)Cu bond prominently elevated the redox capacity and increased the carrier density of CGMOF by 2.74-fold compared to that of MOF. In addition, cinnamaldehyde was grafted onto CGMOF for tumor-responsive hydrogen peroxide self-supply. Concurrently, hyaluronic acid was surface-modified to achieve the targeted delivery of nano-photosensitizers. In summary, this study presents an innovative approach for engineering Fe-based metal-organic frameworks for synergetic PDT/CDT applications.

Abstract
High-entropy nanomaterials exhibit exceptional mechanical, physical, and chemical properties, finding applications in many industries. Peroxidases are metalloenzymes that accelerate the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide. This study uses the high-entropy approach to generate multimetal oxide-based nanozymes with peroxidase-like activity and explores their application as sensors in ex vivo bioassays. A library of 81 materials was produced using a coprecipitation method for rapid synthesis of up to 100 variants in a single plate. The A and B sites of the magnetite structure, (AA')(BB'B'')2O4, were substituted with up to six different cations (Cu/Fe/Zn/Mg/Mn/Cr). Increasing the compositional complexity improved the catalytic performance; however, substitutions of single elements also caused drastic reductions in the peroxidase-like activity. A generalized linear model was developed describing the relationship between material composition and catalytic activity. Binary interactions between elements that acted synergistically or antagonistically were identified, and a single parameter, the mean interaction effect, was observed to correlate highly with catalytic activity, providing a valuable tool for the design of high-entropy-inspired nanozymes.

Highly spontaneous spin polarization engineering of single-atom artificial antioxidases towards efficient ROS elimination and tissue regeneration. NANOSCALE 2024.

Abstract
The creation of atomic catalytic centers has emerged as a conducive path to design efficient nanobiocatalysts to serve as artificial antioxidases (AAOs) that can mimic the function of natural antioxidases to scavenge noxious reactive oxygen species (ROS) for protecting stem cells and promoting tissue regeneration. However, the fundamental mechanisms of diverse single-atom sites for ROS biocatalysis remain ambiguous. Herein, we show that highly spontaneous spin polarization mediates the hitherto unclear origin of H2O2-elimination activities in engineering ferromagnetic element (Fe, Co, Ni)-based AAOs with atomic centers. The experimental and theoretical results reveal that Fe-AAO exhibits the best catalase-like kinetics and turnover number, while Co-AAO shows the highest glutathione peroxidase-like activity and turnover number. Furthermore, our investigations prove that both Fe-AAO and Co-AAO can effectively secure the functions of stem cells in high ROS microenvironments and promote the repair of injured tendon tissue by scavenging H2O2 and other ROS. We believe that the proposed highly spontaneous spin polarization engineering of ferromagnetic element-based AAOs will provide essential guidance and practical opportunities for developing efficient AAOs for eliminating ROS, protecting stem cells, and accelerating tissue regeneration.

Approach of a small protein to the biomimetic bis-(μ-oxo) dicopper active-site installed in MOF-808 pores with restricted access perturbs substrate selectivity of oxidase nanozyme. Chem Sci 2024; 15:10810-10822.

Abstract
Advances in nanozymes have taken shape over the past few years in several domains. However, persisting challenging limitations of selectivity, specificity, and efficiency necessitate careful attention to aid in the development of next-generation artificial enzymes. Despite nanozymes having significant therapeutic and biotechnological prospects, the multienzyme mimetic activities can compromise their intended applications. Furthermore, the lack of substrate selectivity can hamper crucial biological pathways. While working on addressing the challenges of nanozymes, in this work, we aim to highlight the interplay between the substrates and bis-(μ-oxo) dicopper active site-installed MOF-808 for selectively mimicking oxidase. This oxidase mimetic with a small pore-aperture (1.4 nm), similar to the opening of enzyme binding pockets, projects a tight control over the dynamics and the reactivity of substrates, making it distinct from the general oxidase nanozymes. Interestingly, the design and the well-regulated activity of this nanozyme effectively thwart DNA from approaching the active site, thereby preventing its oxidative damage. Crucially, we also show that despite these merits, the oxidase selectivity is compromised by small proteins such as cytochrome c (Cyt c), having dimensions larger than the pore aperture of MOF-808. This reaction lucidly produces water molecules as a result of four electron transfer to an oxygen molecule. Such unintended side reactivities warrant special attention as they can perturb redox processes and several cellular energy pathways. Through this study, we provide a close look at designing next-generation artificial enzymes that can address the complex challenges for their utility in advanced applications.

Abstract
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease characterized by the disruption of the intestinal epithelial barrier. This study described the synthesis and characterization of CCM-Co-ZIF-8, a novel composite material with enzyme-like activities similar to catalase, peroxidase, and superoxide dismutase. CCM-Co-ZIF-8 demonstrated the ability to scavenge reactive oxygen species that play a critical role in UC pathogenesis. In vitro studies using lipopolysaccharide-induced RAW264.7 cells showed that CCM-Co-ZIF-8 exhibited anti-inflammatory activity by promoting the transition of macrophages from an M1 to an M2 phenotype. In vivo experiments using a mouse model of UC demonstrated that CCM-Co-ZIF-8 suppressed the expression of proinflammatory cytokines. These findings suggested that CCM-Co-ZIF-8 might hold promise as a therapeutic strategy for the treatment of UC.

Abstract
In this work, we reported a cholesterol oxidase (Chox)-loaded platinum (Pt) nanozyme with the collaborative cascade nanoreactor for the construction of nanozyme-enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (N-ELSA) models to realize high-throughput rapid evaluation of cancer markers. Considering the high specific surface area and manipulable surface sites, ZIF-8 was used as a substrate for natural enzyme and nanozyme loading. The constructed ZIF-8-Pt nanozyme platform exhibited efficient enzyme-like catalytic efficiency with a standard corrected activity of 60.59 U mg-1, which was 12 times higher than that of the ZIF-8 precursor, and highly efficient photothermal conversion efficiency (∼35.49%). In N-ELISA testing, developed multienzyme photothermal probes were immobilized in microplates based on antigen-antibody-specific reactions. Cholesterol was reacted in a cascade to reactive oxygen radicals, which attacked 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine, causing it to oxidize and color change, thus exhibiting highly enhanced efficient photothermal properties. Systematic temperature evaluations were performed by a hand-held microelectromechanical system thermal imager under the excitation of an 808 nm surface light source to determine the cancer antigen 15-3 (CA15-3) profiles in the samples. Encouragingly, the temperature signal from the microwells increased with increasing CA15-3, with a linear range of 2 mU mL-1 to 100 U mL-1, considering it to be the sensor with the widest working range for visualization and portability available. This work provides new horizons for the development of efficient multienzyme portable colorimetric-photothermal platforms to help advance the community-based process of early cancer detection.

Abstract
Herein, we developed a platinum-copper nano-enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (NLISA) based split diagnostic platform for the ultrasensitive detection of cardiac troponin I (cTnI). The PtCu nanozyme synthesized by one-pot synthesis exhibited ultra-high peroxidase-like activity (35.17 U mg-1), which was about 4.5 times higher than that of the unmodified Pt nanozyme (8.83 U mg-1). Due to the efficient peroxidase-like activity of the copper-platinum complexed nanozyme, transduction and sequential amplification of cTnI biological signals were achieved in combination with a liposome-embedded amplification strategy. The encapsulation efficiency was calculated by introducing a liposomal bilayer model, which showed that the introduction of a single liposomal molecule could amplify the signal up to 870-fold, thus promising a high sensitivity test. Notably, the dynamic response of cTnI was in the range of 0.1-5000 pg mL-1 with an ultra-low detection limit (0.048 pg mL-1). The developed NLISA analysis system provides a new way to discover efficient and sensitive alternatives to ELISA kits, which can meet the practical needs of community healthcare testing conditions and rapid testing in hospitals.

Abstract
Bimetallic nanomaterials have generated significant interest across diverse scientific disciplines, due to their unique and tunable properties arising from the synergistic combination of two distinct metallic elements. This study presents a novel approach for synthesizing branched gold-platinum nanoparticles by utilizing poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH)-stabilized branched gold nanoparticles, with a localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) response of around 1000 nm, as a template for platinum deposition. This approach allows precise control over nanoparticle size, the LSPR band, and the branching degree at an ambient temperature, without the need for high temperatures or organic solvents. The resulting AuPt branched nanoparticles not only demonstrate optical activity but also enhanced catalytic properties. To evaluate their catalytic potential, we compared the enzymatic capabilities of gold and gold-platinum nanoparticles by examining their peroxidase-like activity in the oxidation of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB). Our findings revealed that the incorporation of platinum onto the gold surface substantially enhanced the catalytic efficiency, highlighting the potential of these bimetallic nanoparticles in catalytic applications.

Abstract
Nanozymes are nanomaterials with intrinsic enzyme-like activity with selected advantages over native enzymes such as simple synthesis, controllable activity, high stability, and low cost. These materials have been explored as surrogates to natural enzymes in biosensing, therapeutics, environmental protection, and many other fields. Among different nanozymes classes, metal- and metal oxide-based nanozymes are the most widely studied. In recent years, bi- and tri-metallic nanomaterials have emerged often showing improved nanozyme activity, some of which even possess multifunctional enzyme-like activity. Taking this concept even further, high-entropy nanomaterials, that is, complex multicomponent alloys and ceramics like oxides, may potentially enhance activity even further. However, the addition of various elements to increase catalytic activity may come at the cost of increased toxicity. Since many nanozyme compositions are currently being explored for in vivo biomedical applications, such as cancer therapeutics, toxicity considerations in relation to nanozyme application in biomedicine are of vital importance for translation. This article is categorized under: Therapeutic Approaches and Drug Discovery > Emerging Technologies Toxicology and Regulatory Issues in Nanomedicine > Toxicology of Nanomaterials Diagnostic Tools > Diagnostic Nanodevices.

Abstract
As an indispensable part of the human sensory system, visual acuity may be impaired and even develop into irreversible blindness due to various ocular pathologies. Among ocular diseases, fundus neovascularization diseases (FNDs) are prominent etiologies of visual impairment worldwide. Intravitreal injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor drugs remains the primary therapy but is hurdled by common complications and incomplete potency. To renovate the current therapeutic modalities, nanomedicine emerged as the times required, which is endowed with advanced capabilities, able to fulfill the effective ocular fundus drug delivery and achieve precise drug release control, thus further improving the therapeutic effect. This review provides a comprehensive summary of advances in nanomedicine for FND management from state-of-the-art studies. First, the current therapeutic modalities for FNDs are thoroughly introduced, focusing on the key challenges of ocular fundus drug delivery. Second, nanocarriers are comprehensively reviewed for ocular posterior drug delivery based on the nanostructures: polymer-based nanocarriers, lipid-based nanocarriers, and inorganic nanoparticles. Thirdly, the characteristics of the fundus microenvironment, their pathological changes during FNDs, and corresponding strategies for constructing smart nanocarriers are elaborated. Furthermore, the challenges and prospects of nanomedicine for FND management are thoroughly discussed.

Abstract
Saxitoxin (STX), which is produced by certain dinoflagellate species, is a type of paralytic shellfish poisoning toxin that poses a serious threat to human health and the environment. Therefore, developing a technology for the convenient and cost-effective detection of STX is imperative. In this study, we developed an affinity peptide-imprinted polymer-based indirect competitive ELISA (ic-ELISA) without using enzyme-toxin conjugates. AuNP/Co3O4@Mg/Al cLDH was synthesized by calcining AuNP/ZIF-67@Mg/Al LDH, which was obtained by combining AuNPs, ZIF-67, and flower-like Mg/Al LDH. This synthesized nanozyme exhibited high catalytic activity (Km = 0.24 mM for TMB and 132.5 mM for H2O2). The affinity peptide-imprinted polymer (MIP) was imprinted with an STX-specific template peptide (STX MIP) on a multi-well microplate and then reacted with an STX-specific signal peptide (STX SP). The interaction between the STX SP and MIP was detected using a streptavidin-coated nanozyme (SA-AuNP/Co3O4@Mg/Al cLDH). The developed MIP-based ic-ELISA exhibited excellent selectivity and sensitivity, with a limit of detection of 3.17 ng/mL (equivalent: 0.317 μg/g). Furthermore, the system was validated using a commercial ELISA kit and mussel tissue samples, and it demonstrated a high STX recovery with a low coefficient of variation. These results imply that the developed ic-ELISA can be used to detect STX in real samples.

Abstract
It is important to develop rapid, accurate, and portable technologies for detecting the freshness of chilled meat to meet the current demands of meat industry. This report introduces freshness indicators for monitoring the freshness changes of chilled meat, and systematically analyzes the current status of existing detection technologies which focus on the feasibility of using nanozyme for meat freshness sensing detection. Furthermore, it examines the limitations and foresees the future development trends of utilizing current nanozyme sensing systems in evaluating chilled meat freshness. Harmful chemicals are produced by food spoilage degradation, including biogenic amines, volatile amines, hydrogen sulfide, and xanthine, which have become new freshness indicators to evaluate the freshness of chilled meat. The recognition mechanisms are clarified based on the special chemical reaction with nanozyme or directly inducting the enzyme-like catalytic activity of nanozyme.

Abstract
Defective bismuth telluride (Bi2Te3) nanosheets, an artificial nanozyme mimicking haloperoxidase activity (hPOD), show promise as eco-friendly, bactericidal, and antimicrofouling materials by enhancing cytotoxic hypohalous acid production from halides and H2O2. Microscopic and spectroscopic characterization reveals that controlled NaOH (upto X = 250 µL) etching of the nearly inactive non-transition metal chalcogenide Bi2Te3 nanosheets creates controlled defects (d), such as Bi3+species, in d-Bi2Te3-X that induces enhanced hPOD activity. d-Bi2Te3-250 exhibits approximately eight-fold improved hPOD than the as-grown Bi2Te3 nanosheets. The antibacterial activity of d-Bi2Te3-250 nanozymes, studied by bacterial viability, show 1, and 45% viability for Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, respectively, prevalent in marine environments. The hPOD mechanism is confirmed using scavengers, implicating HOBr and singlet oxygen for the effect. The antimicrofouling property of the d-Bi2Te3-250 nanozyme has been studied on Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm in a lab setting by multiple assays, and also on titanium (Ti) plates coated with the nanozyme mixed commercial paint, exposed to seawater in a real setting. All studies, including direct microscopic evidence, exhibit inhibition of microfouling, up to ≈73%, in the presence of nanozymes. This approach showcases that defect engineering can induce antibacterial, and antimicrofouling activity in non-transition metal chalcogenides, offering an inexpensive alternative to noble metals.

Abstract
Increasing concern over the safety of consumable products, particularly aquatic products, due to freshness issues, has become a pressing issue. Therefore, ensuring the quality and safety of aquatic products is paramount. To address this, a dual-mode colorimetric-fluorescence sensor utilizing Ce-MOF as a mimic peroxidase to detect H2S was developed. Ce-MOF was prepared by a conventional solvothermal synthesis method. Ce-MOF catalyzed the oxidation of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to produce blue oxidized TMB (oxTMB). When dissolved, hydrogen sulfide (H2S) was present in the solution, and it inhibited the catalytic effect of Ce-MOF and caused the color of the solution to fade from blue to colorless. This change provided an intuitive indication for the detection of H2S. Through steady-state dynamic analysis, the working mechanism of this sensor was elucidated. The sensor exhibited pronounced color changes from blue to colorless, accompanied by a shift in fluorescence from none to light blue. Additionally, UV-vis absorption demonstrated a linear correlation with the H2S concentration, ranging from 200 to 2300 µM, with high sensitivity (limit of detection, LOD = 0.262 μM). Fluorescence intensity also showed a linear correlation, ranging from 16 to 320 µM, with high selectivity and sensitivity (LOD = 0.156 μM). These results underscore the sensor's effectiveness in detecting H2S. Furthermore, the sensor enhanced the accuracy of H2S detection and fulfilled the requirements for assessing food freshness and safety.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2024:e202408935.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) regulation for single-atom nanozymes (SAzymes), e.g., Fe-N-C, is a key scientific issue that determines the activity, selectivity, and stability of aerobic reaction. However, the poor understanding of ROS formation mechanism on SAzymes greatly hampers their wider deployment. Herein, inspired by cytochromes P450 affording bound ROS intermediates in O2 activation, we report Fe-N-C containing the same FeN4 but with tunable second-shell coordination can effectively regulate ROS production pathways. Remarkably, compared to the control Fe-N-C sample, the second-shell sulfur functionalized Fe-N-C delivered a 2.4-fold increase of oxidase-like activity via the bound Fe=O intermediate. Conversely, free ROS (⋅O2 -) release was significantly reduced after functionalization, down to only 17 % of that observed for Fe-N-C. The detailed characterizations and theoretical calculations revealed that the second-shell sulfur functionalization significantly altered the electronic structure of FeN4 sites, leading to an increase of electron density at Fermi level. It enhanced the electron transfer from active sites to the key intermediate *OOH, thereby ultimately determining the type of ROS in aerobic oxidation process. The proposed Fe-N-Cs with different second-shell anion were further applied to three aerobic oxidation reactions with enhanced activity, selectivity, and stability.

Abstract
Prussian blue analogues (PBAs) are promising materials due to their rich active sites and straightforward synthesis. However, their limited conductivity and electron transfer inefficiency hinder practical applications. This study utilizes a simple one-pot synthesis approach to produce a tungsten-disulfide (WS2) and iron-cobalt Prussian blue analogue composite (WS2-PBA), enhancing conductivity and electron transfer rate performance. Through the inclusion of sodium citrate into the solution, the S-edge site concentration of WS2 increases. This augmentation introduces additional active sites and defects into the catalyst, enhancing its catalytic activity. The effectiveness of the WS2-PBA 3D-Origami paper device for lactate detection in sweat is also evaluated for biomedical applications. The device demonstrated a robust relationship between the lactate concentration and current intensity (R2 = 0.997), with a detection limit of 1.83 mM. Additionally, this platform has successfully detected lactate in clinical sweat, correlating with the high-performance liquid chromatography test results, suggesting promising prospects for clinical diagnosis. In the future, the excellent catalytic and Rct performance of the WS2-PBA will enable its use in biomedical applications.

Abstract
In this study, a dual-mode colorimetric/CL nanosensor was developed for glyphosate detection based on the specific inhibition of Fe3O4@Cu peroxidase-like activity. Synthesized Fe3O4@Cu exhibited high levels of peroxidase-like activity that triggered the oxidation of luminol/3,3',5,5'-tetramethyl benzidine dihydrochloride (TMB) to excited-state 3-aminophthalic acid/blue oxTMB, thereby delivering a CL signal/visible colorimetric signal, however, the presence of glyphosate inhibited this activity, resulting in a decrease in signal strength. In-depth investigation revealed that this inhibitory mechanism occurs via two pathways: one in which glyphosate chelates with Fe(III)/Cu(II) and occupy the catalytical active sites of Fe3O4@Cu, thereby decreasing the generation of OH, and another in which glyphosate competes with TMB to consume generated OH, thus reducing the oxidation of TMB. This mechanism formed the basis of our novel dual-mode colorimetric/CL glyphosate nanosensor, which achieved limits of detection (LODs) of 0.086 µg/mL and 0.019 µg/mL in tests, thus demonstrating its significant potential for on-site glyphosate monitoring.

Abstract
Ferroptosis induction is particularly promising for cancer therapy when the apoptosis pathway is compromised. Current strategies in nanomedicine for inducing ferroptosis primarily focus on promoting the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). However, the presence of intracellular antioxidants, such as nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), can limit the effectiveness of such therapy by activating detoxification systems and eliminating ROS. To overcome this challenge, we developed a synergistic ferroptosis-inducing agent by modifying manganese (Mn2+)-1,8-dihydroxy-3-hydroxymethyl-anthraquinone (aloe-emodin, AE) with polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) to create nanoparticles (MAP NPs). In the tumor microenvironment, these NPs degraded and released AE and Mn(II), facilitating the generation of ROS and Mn(IV) through a Fenton-like reaction between hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and Mn(II). Mn(IV) subsequently interacts with glutathione (GSH) to induce a cyclic catalytic effect, and the depletion of GSH diminished the activation of glutathione-dependent peroxidase 4 (GPX4). Furthermore, AE inhibits the activity of Nrf2 and depleted GSH, thereby synergistically enhancing antitumor efficacy. Here it is demonstrated that MAP NPs effectively generate a robust ROS storm within tumor cells, suggesting that high-performance ferroptosis therapy is effective. Additionally, the inclusion of Mn(II) in the MAP NPs enables real-time monitoring of therapeutic efficacy via magnetic resonance T1-weighted contrast imaging.

Abstract
Hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is a common pathological process during hepatectomy and liver transplantation and the two primary reasons for hepatic IRI are reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated oxidative stress and excessive inflammatory responses. Herein, a novel antioxidant nanodrug (A-MPDA@Fe3O4@PVP) is prepared by employing L-arginine-doped mesoporous polydopamine (A-MPDA) nanoparticles as the carrier for deposition of ultra-small ferric oxide (Fe3O4) nanoparticles and further surface modification with polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP). A-MPDA@Fe3O4@PVP not only effectively reduces the aggregation of ultra-small Fe3O4, but also simultaneously replicates the catalytic activity of catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase (SOD). A-MPDA@Fe3O4@PVP with good antioxidant activity can rapidly remove various toxic reactive oxygen species (ROS) and effectively regulate macrophage polarization in vitro. In the treatment of hepatic IRI, A-MPDA@Fe3O4@PVP effectively alleviates ROS-induced oxidative stress, reduces the expression of inflammatory factors, and prevents apoptosis of hepatocytes through immune regulation. A-MPDA@Fe3O4@PVP can further protect liver tissue by activating the PPARγ/NF-κB pathway. This multiplex antioxidant enzyme therapy can provide new references for the treatment of IRI in organ transplantation and other ROS-related injuries such as fibrosis, cirrhosis, and bacterial and hepatic viral infection.

Abstract
Nanozymes have demonstrated significant potential in combating malignant tumor proliferation through catalytic therapy. However, the therapeutic effect is often limited by insufficient catalytic performance. In this study, we propose the utilization of strain engineering in metallenes to fully expose the active regions due to their ultrathin nature. Here, we present the first report on a novel tensile strain-mediated local amorphous RhRu (la-RhRu) bimetallene with exceptional intrinsic photothermal effect and photo-enhanced multiple enzyme-like activities. Through geometric phase analysis, electron diffraction profile, and X-ray diffraction, it is revealed that crystalline-amorphous heterophase boundaries can generate approximately 2 % tensile strain in the bimetallene. The ultrathin structure and in-plane strain of the bimetallene induce an amplified strain effect. Both experimental and theoretical evidence support the notion that tensile strain promotes multiple enzyme-like activities. Functioning as a tumor microenvironment (TME)-responsive nanozyme, la-RhRu exhibits remarkable therapeutic efficacy both in vitro and in vivo. This work highlights the tremendous potential of atomic-scale tensile strain engineering strategy in enhancing tumor catalytic therapy.

Abstract
Sensitive detection and point-of-care test of bacterial pathogens is of great significance in safeguarding the public health worldwide. Inspired by the characteristics of horseradish peroxidase (HRP), we synthesized a hybrid nanoflower with peroxidase-like activity via a three-component self-assembled strategy. Interestingly, the prepared nanozyme not only could act as an alternative to HRP for colorimetric biosensing, but also function as a unique signal probe that could be recognized by a pregnancy test strip. By combining the bifunctional properties of hybrid nanoflower, isothermal amplification of LAMP, and the specific recognition and non-specific cleavage properties of CRISPR/Cas12a system, the dual-readout CRISPR/Cas12a biosensor was developed for sensitive and rapid detection of Salmonella enterica. Moreover, this platform in the detection of Salmonella enterica had limits of detection of 1 cfu/mL (colorimetric assay) in the linear range of 101-108 cfu/mL and 102 cfu/mL (lateral flow assay) in the linear range of 102-108 cfu/mL, respectively. Furthermore, the developed biosensor exhibited good recoveries in the spiked samples (lake water and milk) with varying concentrations of Salmonella enterica. This work provides new insights for the design of multifunctional nanozyme and the development of innovative dual-readout CRISPR/Cas system-based biosensing platform for the detection of pathogens.

Abstract
Given the challenge of multidrug resistance in antibiotics, non-antibiotic-dependent antibacterial strategies show promise for anti-infective therapy. V2C MXene-based nanomaterials have demonstrated strong biocompatibility and photothermal conversion efficiency (PCE) for photothermal therapy (PTT). However, the limitation of V2C MXene's laser irradiation to the near-infrared region I (NIR-I) restricts tissue penetration, making it difficult to achieve complete bacterial eradication with single-effect therapeutic strategies. To address this, Pt nanoparticles (Pt NPs) are attached to V2C, forming artificial nanoplatforms (Pt@V2C). Pt@V2C exhibits enhanced PCE (59.6%) and a longer irradiation laser (NIR-II) due to the surface plasmon resonance effect of Pt NPs and V2C. Notably, Pt@V2C displays dual enzyme-like activity with chemodynamic therapy (CDT) and NIR-II enhanced dual enzyme-like activity. The biocatalytic mechanism of Pt@V2C is elucidated using density functional theory. In an in vivo animal model, Pt@V2C effectively eliminates methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus from deep-seated tissues in subcutaneous abscesses and bacterial keratitis environments, accelerating abscess resolution and promoting wound and cornea healing through the synergistic effects of PTT/CDT. Transcriptomic analysis reveals that Pt@V2C targets inflammatory pathways, providing insight into its therapeutic mechanism. This study presents a promising therapeutic approach involving hyperthermia-amplified biocatalysis with Pt NPs and MXene nanocomposites.

Abstract
Currently, nanozymes have made important research progress in the fields of catalysis, biosensing and tumor therapy, but most of nanozymes sensing systems are single-mode detection, which are easily affected by environment and operation, so it is crucial to construct nanozymes sensing system with dual-signal detection to obtain a more stable and reliable performance. In this paper, Ag-carbon dots (Ag-CDs) bifunctional nanomaterials were synthesized using carbon dots as reducing agent and protective agent by a facile and green one-step method. A simple and sensitive colorimetric-SERS dual-mode sensing platform was constructed for the detection of glucose and glutathione(GSH) in body fluids by taking advantage of good peroxidase-like and SERS activities of Ag-CDs. Ag-CDs catalyzes H2O2 to hydroxyl radicals(•OH), which oxidized TMB to form ox-TMB blue solution with characteristic absorption peak at 652 nm and Raman characteristic peak at 1607 cm-1. Ag-CDs sensing method exhibited high performance for glucose and GSH with detection limits for colorimetric and SERS as low as 11.30 μM and 3.54 μM, 0.38 μM and 0.24 μM respectively (S/N = 3). In addition, Ag-CDs have good stability and uniformity, ensuring long-term applicability of catalytic system. This colorimetric-SERS dual-mode sensing platform can be used for the determination of glucose and GSH in saliva and urine, and has the advantages of simple, low cost, rapid, and high accuracy, which has a potential application prospect in biosensor and medical research.

Abstract
Unavoidable damage to normal tissues and tumor microenvironment (TME) resistance make it challenging to eradicate breast carcinoma through radiotherapy. Therefore, it is urgent to develop radiotherapy sensitizers that can effectively reduce radiation doses and reverse the suppressive TME. Here, a novel biomimetic PEGylated Cu2WS4 nanozyme (CWP) with multiple enzymatic activities is synthesized by the sacrificing template method to have physical radiosensitization and biocatalyzer-responsive effects on the TME. Experiment results show that CWP can improve the damage efficiency of radiotherapy on breast cancer cell 4T1 through its large X-ray attenuation coefficient of tungsten and nucleus-penetrating capacity. CWP also exhibit strong Fenton-like reactions that produced abundant ROS and GSH oxidase-like activity decreasing GSH. This destruction of redox balance further promotes the effectiveness of radiotherapy. Transcriptome sequencing reveals that CWP induced ferroptosis by regulating the KEAP1/NRF2/HMOX1/GPX4 molecules. Therefore, owing to its multiple enzymatic activities, high-atomic W elements, nucleus-penetrating, and ferroptosis-inducing capacities, CWP effectively improves the efficiency of radiotherapy for breast carcinoma in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, CWP-mediated radiosensitization can trigger immunogenic cell death (ICD) to improve the anti-PD-L1 treatments to inhibit the growth of primary and distant tumors effectively. These results indicate that CWP is a multifunctional nano-sensitizers for radiotherapy and immunotherapy.

Abstract
The insufficient exposure sites and active site competition of multienzyme are the two main factors to hinder its therapeutic effect. Here, a phase-junction nanomaterial (amorphous-crystalline CuxS-Ag2S) is designed and prepared through a simple room temperature ion-exchange process. A small amount of Ag+ is added into Cu7S4 nanocrystals, which transforms Cu7S4 into amorphous phased CuxS and produces crystalline Ag2S simultaneously. In this structure, the overhanging bonds on the amorphous CuxS surface provide abundant active sites for optimizing the therapeutic activity. Meanwhile, the amorphous state enhances the photothermal effect through non-radiative relaxation, and due to its low thermal resistance, phase-junction CuxS-Ag2S forms a significant temperature gradient to unlock the optimized thermo-electrodynamic therapy. Furthermore, benefiting from the high asymmetry of the amorphous state, the material forms a spin-polarized state that can effectively inhibit electron-hole recombination. In this way, the thermoelectric effect can facilitate the enzyme-catalyzed cycle by providing electrons and holes, enabling an enhanced coupling of thermoelectric therapy with multienzyme activity, which induces excellent anti-tumor performance. More importantly, the catalytic process simulated by density-functional theory proves that Ag+ alleviates the burden on the Cu sites through favorable adsorption of O2 and prevents active site competition.

Glucose Oxidase Energized Osmium with Dual-Active Centers and Triple Enzyme Activities for Infected Diabetic Wound Management. Adv Healthc Mater 2024; 13:e2303548. [PMID: 38507709 DOI: 10.1002/adhm.202303548] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/16/2023] [Revised: 03/13/2024] [Indexed: 03/22/2024]
Abstract
Diabetic wounds are susceptible to bacterial infections, largely linked to high blood glucose levels (hyperglycemia). To treat such wounds, enzymes like glucose oxidase (GOx) can be combined with nanozymes (nanomaterials mimic enzymes) to use glucose effectively for purposes. However, there is still room for improvement in these systems, particularly in terms of process simplification, enzyme activity regulation, and treatment effects. Herein, the approach utilizes GOx to directly facilitate the biomineralized growth of osmium (Os) nanozyme (GOx-OsNCs), leading to dual-active centers and remarkable triple enzyme activities. Initially, GOx-OsNCs use vicinal dual-active centers, enabling a self-cascaded mechanism that significantly enhances glucose sensing performance compared to step-by-step reactions, surpassing the capabilities of other metal sources such as gold and platinum. In addition, GOx-OsNCs are integrated into a glucose-sensing gel, enabling instantaneous visual feedback. In the treatment of infected diabetic wounds, GOx-OsNCs exhibit multifaceted benefits by lowering blood glucose levels and exhibiting antibacterial properties through the generation of hydroxyl free radicals, thereby expediting healing by fostering a favorable microenvironment. Furthermore, the catalase-like activity of GOx-OsNCs aids in reducing oxidative stress, inflammation, and hypoxia, culminating in improved healing outcomes. Overall, this synergistic enzyme-nanozyme blend is user-friendly and holds considerable promise for diverse applications.

Abstract
Polyphenols with antioxidant properties are of significant interest in medical and pharmaceutical applications. Given the diverse range of activities of polyphenols in vivo, accurate detection of these compounds plays a crucial role in nutritional surveillance and pharmaceutical development. Yet, the efficient quantitation of polyphenol contents and qualification of monomer compositions present a notable challenge when studying polyphenol bioavailability. In this study, platinum-modified nickel-iron layered double hydroxide (Pt/NiFe-LDH hybrids) were designed to mimic peroxidases for colorimetric analysis and act as enhanced matrices for laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (LDI MS) to quantify and qualify polyphenols. The hybrids exhibited an enzymatic activity of 33.472 U/mg for colorimetric assays, facilitating the rapid and direct quantitation of total tea polyphenols within approximately 1 min. Additionally, the heterogeneous structure and exposed hydroxyl groups on the hybrid surface contributed to photoelectric enhancement and in-situ enrichment of polyphenols in LDI MS. This study introduces an innovative approach to detect polyphenols using advanced materials, potentially inspiring the future development and applications of other photoactive nanomaterials.

Abstract
Bacterial infections pose a serious threat to human health and socioeconomics worldwide. In the post-antibiotic era, the development of novel antimicrobial agents remains a challenge. Polyphenols are natural compounds with a variety of biological activities such as intrinsic antimicrobial activity and antioxidant properties. Metal-polyphenol obtained by chelation of polyphenol ligands with metal ions not only possesses efficient antimicrobial activity but also excellent biocompatibility, which has great potential for application in biomedical and food packaging fields. Herein, we developed metal-polyphenol coordination nanosheets named copper oxidized tannic acid quinone (CuTAQ) possessing efficient antibacterial and anti-biofilm effects, which was synthesized by a facile one-pot method. The synthesis was achieved by chelation of partially oxidized tannic acid (TA) with Cu2+ under mild conditions, which supports low-cost and large-scale production. It was demonstrated that CuTAQ exhibited high antibacterial activity via disrupting the integrity of bacterial cell membranes, inducing oxidative stress, and interfering with metabolism. In addition, CuTAQ exhibits excellent peroxidase catalytic activity and photothermal conversion properties, which play a significant role in enhancing its bactericidal and biofilm scavenging abilities. This study provides insights for rational design of innovative metal-polyphenol nanomaterials with efficient antimicrobial properties.

Abstract
Single-atom nanozymes with well-defined atomic structures and electronic coordination environments can effectively mimic the functions of natural enzymes. However, the costly and intricate preparation processes have hindered further exploration and application of these single-atom nanozymes. In this study, we presented a synthesis technique for creating Fe-N central single-atom doped graphene quantum dot (FeN/GQDs) nanozymes using a one-step solvothermal process, where individual iron atoms form strong bonds with graphene quantum dots through nitrogen coordination. Unlike previous studies, this method significantly simplifies the synthesis conditions for single-atom nanozymes, eliminating the need for high temperatures and employing environmentally friendly precursors derived from pineapple (ananas comosus) leaves. The resulting FeN/GQDs exhibited peroxidase-like catalytic activity and kinetics comparable to that of natural enzymes, efficiently converting H2O2 into hydroxyl radical species. Leveraging their excellent peroxide-like activity, FeN/GQDs nanozymes have been successfully applied to construct a colorimetric biosensor system characterized by remarkably high sensitivity for glucose detection. This achievement demonstrated a promising approach to designing single-atom nanozymes with both facile synthesis procedures and high catalytic activity, offering potential applications in wearable sensors and personalized health monitoring.

Abstract
Electron transfer is considered to be a typical parameter that affects the catalytic activity of nanozymes. However, there is still controversy regarding whether higher or lower electron transfer numbers are beneficial for improving the catalytic activity of nanozymes. To address this issue, we propose the introduction of Pd doping as an important electron regulation strategy to tune electron transfer between Pt and ZIF-8 carriers (PtxPd1@ZIF-8). We observe a volcano-shaped relationship between the electron transfer number and catalytic activity, reaching its peak at Pt4Pd1@ZIF-8. Mechanism studies indicate that as the electron transfer number from Pt to ZIF-8 carriers increases, the d-band center of the active site Pt increases, reducing the occupancy of antibonding states and enhancing the adsorption capacity of the key intermediate (*O). However, a further increase in the adsorption of *O energy makes it difficult to desorb and participate in the next reaction, thus exhibiting volcanic activity. The optimized Pt4Pd1@ZIF-8 nanozyme is applied to develop an immunoassay for the detection of zearalenone, achieving a detection limit of 0.01 μg/L, which is 6 times higher than that of the traditional enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. This work not only reveals the potential regulatory mechanism of electron transfer on the catalytic activity of nanozymes but also improves the performance of nanozyme-based biosensors.

Abstract
Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is a key marker for a prostate cancer diagnosis. The low sensitivity of traditional lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) methods makes them unsuitable for point-of-care testing. Herein, we designed a nanozyme by in situ growth of Prussian blue (PB) within the pores of dendritic mesoporous silica (DMSN). The PB was forcibly dispersed into the pores of DMSN, leading to an increase in exposed active sites. Consequently, the atom utilization is enhanced, resulting in superior peroxidase (POD)-like activity compared to that of cubic PB. Antibody-modified DMSN@PB nanozymes serve as immunological probes in an enzymatic-enhanced colorimetric and photothermal dual-signal LFIA for PSA detection. After systematic optimization, the LFIA based on DMSN@PB successfully achieves a 4-fold amplification of the colorimetric signal within 7 min through catalytic oxidation of the chromogenic substrate by POD-like activity. Moreover, DMSN@PB exhibits an excellent photothermal conversion ability under 808 nm laser irradiation. Accordingly, photothermal signals are introduced to improve the anti-interference ability and sensitivity of LFIA, exhibiting a wide linear range (1-40 ng mL-1) and a low PSA detection limit (0.202 ng mL-1), which satisfies the early detection level of prostate cancer. This research provides a more accurate and reliable visualization analysis methodology for the early diagnosis of prostate cancer.

Abstract
Cobalt ferrite (CoFe) nanoparticles (NPs) with appropriate physicochemical and biological properties have attracted great attention for biomedical applications. In the present study, chitosan-coated mesoporous CoFe (CoFeCH) NPs were synthesized using a facile one-step hydrothermal method and fully characterized using FE-SEM, EDS, BET, FTIR spectroscopy, DLS, TGA, XRD, and VSM. The spherical, highly colloidal, and monodispersed CoFeCH NPs with an average hydrodynamic size of 177.9 nm, PDI of 0.238 and zeta potential value of -33 represented a high saturation magnetization value of 59.37 emu g-1. N2 adsorption-desorption analysis confirmed the mesoporous structure of CoFeCH NPs with a type IV isotherm, calculated specific surface area of 89.583 m2 g-1 and total pore volume of 0.3668 cm3 g-1. CoFeCH NPs exhibited high antibacterial effects on S. aureus and E. coli, comparable with standard antibiotics, while CH-coating led to higher biocompatibility of CoFe NPs on human cells in vitro. CoFeCH NPs also showed significant peroxidase activity with a Km value of 14.37 and specific activity of 0.632 mmol min-1. CoFeCH NPs were successfully used as a MRI contrast agent with an R2 value of 91.3 mM-1 s-1. The overall results indicated the high potential of synthesized CoFeCH NPs by the present method for biomedical applications, especially as an antibacterial and MRI contrast agent.
