Intracellular Antioxidant Activity of Biocompatible Citrate-Capped Palladium Nanozymes. NANOMATERIALS 2020; 10:nano10010099. [PMID: 31947820 PMCID: PMC7023661 DOI: 10.3390/nano10010099] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2019] [Revised: 12/20/2019] [Accepted: 12/28/2019] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
A method for the aqueous synthesis of stable and biocompatible citrate-coated palladium nanoparticles (PdNPs) in the size range comparable to natural enzymes (4–8 nm) has been developed. The toxicological profile of PdNPs was assessed by different assays on several cell lines demonstrating their safety in vitro also at high particle concentrations. To elucidate their cellular fate upon uptake, the localization of PdNPs was analyzed by Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). Moreover, crucial information about their intracellular stability and oxidation state was obtained by Sputtering-Enabled Intracellular X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (SEI-XPS). TEM/XPS results showed significant stability of PdNPs in the cellular environment, an important feature for their biocompatibility and potential for biomedical applications. On the catalytic side, these PdNPs exhibited strong and broad antioxidant activities, being able to mimic the three main antioxidant cellular enzymes, i.e., peroxidase, catalase, and superoxide dismutase. Remarkably, using an experimental model of a human oxidative stress-related disease, we demonstrated the effectiveness of PdNPs as antioxidant nanozymes within the cellular environment, showing that they are able to completely re-establish the physiological Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) levels in highly compromised intracellular redox conditions.

Abstract
Thiolate-capped RhNPs in imidazolium-based ionic liquids were synthesized from [Rh(μ-SR)(COD)]2 dimmers under H2 pressure without external addition of ligand stabilizers, preserving thiolate integrity on the nanoparticle surface. This nanoparticulated systems showed a remarkable selectivity that led to their application in the one pot reductive N-alkylation to produce amines.

Abstract
The catalyst immobilization in a liquid phase represents an attractive means to preserve high activities and selectivities, also permitting an easy recycling. To attain this goal, organic products should be extracted in a simple way from the catalytic phase leading to metal-free target compounds; for this reason, ionic liquids exhibiting high affinity for metallic species and low affinity for low polar compounds, turn into a promising medium, in particular for the synthesis of fine chemicals. In the present Accounts, we illustrate this approach through our research involving both molecular organometallic compounds and metallic nanoparticles dispersed in an ionic liquid phase.

Abstract
Palladium nanoparticles generated from organometallic complexes in the presence of functionalized mono-phosphines (L1-L3), in both THF and imidazolium-based ionic liquids (ImILs), were successfully synthesized. Depending on the phosphine and solvent nature, PdNPs with different extent of aggregation were observed. Actually, the ligand L1, P(CH2CH2CH2Ph)3, led to small and well-dispersed nanoparticles in both ILs, [BMI][PF6] and [EMI][HP(O)2OMe], in contrast to more agglomerated PdNPs obtained in THF. PdNPs in ILs were catalytically active and chemoselective in C-C cross-coupling (Suzuki-Miyaura and Heck-Mizoroki) and hydrogenation reactions. Well-defined Pd(0) and Pd(II) organometallic complexes containing L1, [PdCl2(L1)2] and [Pd(ma)(L1)2], were also prepared for comparative purposes.
