[PMID: 38522688 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.131022] [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: 01/23/2024] [Revised: 03/14/2024] [Accepted: 03/18/2024] [Indexed: 03/26/2024]
Abstract
In this work, the adsorption of Candida antarctica B (CALB) and Rhizomucor miehei (RML) lipases into hydrophobic wrinkled silica nanoparticles (WSNs) is investigated. WSNs are hydrophobized by chemical vapor deposition. Both proteins are homogeneously distributed inside the pores of the nanoparticles, as confirmed by Transmission Electron Microscopy and Energy Dispersive X-ray measurements. The maximum enzyme load of CALB is twice that obtained for RML. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy confirms the preservation of the enzyme secondary structure after immobilization for both enzymes. Adsorption isotherms fit to a Langmuir model, resulting in a binding constant (KL) for RML 4.5-fold higher than that for CALB, indicating stronger binding for the former. Kinetic analysis reveals a positive correlation between enzyme load and RML activity unlike CALB where activity decreases along the enzyme load increases. Immobilization allows for enhancing the thermal stability of both lipases. Finally, CALB outperforms RML in the hydrolysis of ethyl-3-hydroxybutyrate. However, immobilized CALB yielded 20 % less 3-HBA than free lipase, while immobilized RML increases 3-fold the 3-HBA yield when compared with the free enzyme. The improved performance of immobilized RML can be explained due to the interfacial hyperactivation undergone by this lipase when immobilized on the superhydrophobic surface of WSNs.

Abstract
Biodegradation of insoluble biomass such as cellulose via carbohydrase enzymes is an effective approach to break down plant cell walls and extract valuable materials therein. Yet, the high cost and poor reusability of enzymes are practical concerns. We recently proved that immobilizing multiple digestive enzymes on metal-organic materials (MOMs) allows enzymes to be reused via gravimetric separation, improving the cost efficiency of cereal biomass degradation [ACS Appl. Mater. Interfaces 2021, 13, 36, 43085-43093]. However, this strategy cannot be adapted for enzymes whose substrates or products are insoluble (e.g., cellulose crystals). Recently, we described an alternative approach based on magnetic metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) using model enzymes/substrates [ACS Appl. Mater. Interfaces 2020, 12, 37, 41794-41801]. Here, we aim to prove the effectiveness of combining these two strategies in cellulose degradation. We immobilized multiple carbohydrase enzymes that cooperate in cellulose degradation via cocrystallization with Ca2+, a carboxylate ligand (BDC) in the absence and presence of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs). We then compared the separation efficiency and enzyme reusability of the resultant multienzyme@Ca-BDC and multienzyme@MNP-Ca-BDC composites via gravimetric and magnetic separation, respectively, and found that, although both composites were effective in cellulose degradation in the first round, the multienzyme@MNP-Ca-BDC composites displayed significantly enhanced reusability. This work provides the first experimental demonstration of using magnetic solid supports to immobilize multiple carbohydrase enzymes simultaneously and degrade cellulose and promotes green/sustainable chemistry in three ways: (1) reusing the enzymes saves energy/sources to prepare them, (2) the synthetic conditions are "green" without generating unwanted wastes, and (3) using our composites to degrade cellulose is the first step of extracting valuable materials from sustainable biomasses such as plants whose growth does not rely on nonregeneratable resources.

Abstract
It is critical to develop a highly efficient and sensitive method for detecting the biomarker sarcosine (SA) of prostate cancer due to its importance for men's health. In our work, a fluorescence (FL) and colorimetric dual-mode multienzyme cascade nanoplatform for SA detection was designed and constructed. CuNCs/FeMn-ZIF-8/PCN nanocomposites with high FL properties and peroxidase-like activity were successfully prepared by encapsulating copper nanoclusters (CuNCs) into FeMn-ZIF-8 and then loaded onto P-doped graphitic carbon nitride (PCN). Furthermore, the nanocomposites served as carriers for the immobilization of sarcosine oxidase (SOX) to construct a high-efficiency dual-mode multienzyme cascade nanoplatform CuNCs/SOX@FeMn-ZIF-8/PCN for the detection of SA. The intermediate H2O2 generated in the cascade caused the FL quenching of nanocomposites and the discoloration of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidin. The linear ranges for SA detection in the dual-mode system were 1-100 μM (FL) and 1-200 μM (colorimetric), with detection limits of 0.34 and 0.59 μM, respectively. This nanoplatform exhibited notable repeatability, specificity, and stability, making it suitable for detecting sarcosine in real human urine samples. Therefore, this dual-mode multienzyme cascade nanoplatform would have a potential applicative prospect for detecting SA and other biomarkers in real clinical samples.

Abstract
Polyoxometalates (POM) are anionic oxoclusters of early transition metals that are of great interest for a variety of applications, including the development of sensors and catalysts. A crucial step in the use of POM in functional materials is the production of composites that can be further processed into complex materials, e.g. by printing on different substrates. In this work, we present an immobilization approach for POMs that involves two key processes: first, the stable encapsulation of POMs in the pores of mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSPs) and, second, the formation of microstructured arrays with these POM-loaded nanoparticles. Specifically, we have developed a strategy that leads to water-stable, POM-loaded mesoporous silica that can be covalently linked to alkene-bearing surfaces by amine-Michael addition and patterned into microarrays by scanning probe lithography (SPL). The immobilization strategy presented facilitates the printing of hybrid POM-loaded nanomaterials onto different surfaces and provides a versatile method for the fabrication of POM-based composites. Importantly, POM-loaded MSPs are useful in applications such as microfluidic systems and sensors that require frequent washing. Overall, this method is a promising way to produce surface-printed POM arrays that can be used for a wide range of applications.

Abstract
The use of nanoparticles is crucial for the development of a new generation of nanodevices for clinical applications. Silica-based nanoparticles can be tailored with a wide range of functional biopolymers with unique physicochemical properties thus providing several advantages: (1) limitation of interparticle interaction, (2) preservation of cargo and particle integrity, (3) reduction of immune response, (4) additional therapeutic effects and (5) cell targeting. Therefore, the engineering of advanced functional coatings is of utmost importance to enhance the biocompatibility of existing biomaterials. Herein we will focus on the most recent advances reported on the delivery and therapeutic use of silica-based nanoparticles containing biopolymers (proteins, nucleotides, and polysaccharides) with proven biological effects.

Abstract
Biomimetic mineralization of proteins and nucleic acids into hybrid metal-organic nanoparticles allows for protection and cellular delivery of these sensitive and generally membrane-impermeable biomolecules. Although the concept is not necessarily restricted to zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs), so far reports about intracellular delivery of functional proteins have focused on ZIF structures. Here, we present a green room-temperature synthesis of amorphous iron-fumarate nanoparticles under mildly acidic conditions in water to encapsulate bovine serum albumin (BSA), horseradish peroxidase (HRP), green fluorescent protein (GFP), and Cas9/sgRNA ribonucleoproteins (RNPs). The synthesis conditions preserve the activity of enzymatic model proteins and the resulting nanoparticles deliver functional HRP and Cas9 RNPs into cells. Incorporation into the iron-fumarate nanoparticles preserves and protects the activity of RNPs composed of the acid-sensitive Cas9 protein and hydrolytically labile RNA even during exposure to pH 3.5 and storage for 2 months at 4 °C, which are conditions that strongly impair the functionality of unprotected RNPs. Thus, the biomimetic mineralization into iron-fumarate nanoparticles presents a versatile platform for the delivery of biomolecules and protects them from degradation during storage under challenging conditions.

Abstract
Although many different methods are known for the immobilization of enzymes on solid supports for use in flow-through applications as enzyme reactors, the reproducible immobilization of predetermined amounts of catalytically active enzyme molecules remains challenging. This challenge was tackled using a macro- and mesoporous silica monolith as a support and dendronized polymer-enzyme conjugates. The conjugates were first prepared in an aqueous solution by covalently linking enzyme molecules and either horseradish peroxidase (HRP) or bovine carbonic anhydrase (BCA) along the chains of a water-soluble second-generation dendronized polymer using an established procedure. The obtained conjugates are stable biohybrid structures in which the linking unit between the dendronized polymer and each enzyme molecule is a bisaryl hydrazone (BAH) bond. Quantitative and reproducible enzyme immobilization inside the monolith is possible by simply adding a defined volume of a conjugate solution of a defined enzyme concentration to a dry monolith piece of the desired size. In that way, (i) the entire volume of the conjugate solution is taken up by the monolith piece due to capillary forces and (ii) all conjugates of the added conjugate solution remain stably adsorbed (immobilized) noncovalently without detectable leakage from the monolith piece. The observed flow-through activity of the resulting enzyme reactors was directly proportional to the amount of conjugate used for the reactor preparation. With conjugate solutions consisting of defined amounts of both types of conjugates, the controlled coimmobilization of the two enzymes, namely, BCA and HRP, was shown to be possible in a simple way. Different stability tests of the enzyme reactors were carried out. Finally, the enzyme reactors were applied to the catalysis of a two-enzyme cascade reaction in two types of enzymatic flow-through reactor systems with either coimmobilized or sequentially immobilized BCA and HRP. Depending on the composition of the substrate solution that was pumped through the two types of enzyme reactor systems, the coimmobilized enzymes performed significantly better than the sequentially immobilized ones. This difference, however, is not due to a molecular proximity effect with regard to the enzymes but rather originates from the kinetic features of the cascade reaction used. Overall, the method developed for the controllable and reproducible immobilization of enzymes in the macro- and mesoporous silica monolith offers many possibilities for systematic investigations of immobilized enzymes in enzymatic flow-through reactors, potentially for any type of enzyme.

Abstract
Carbonic anhydrase (CA) is an excellent candidate for novel biocatalytic processes based on the capture and utilization of CO2. The setup of efficient methods for enzyme immobilization makes CA utilization in continuous bioreactors increasingly attractive and opens up new opportunities for the industrial use of CA. The development of efficient processes for CO2 capture and utilization (CCU) is one of the most challenging targets of modern chemical reaction engineering. In the general frame of CCU processes, the interest in the utilization of immobilized CA as a biocatalyst for augmentation of CO2 reactive absorption has grown consistently over the last decade. The present mini-review surveys and discusses key methodologies for CA immobilization aimed at the development of heterogeneous biocatalysts for CCU. Advantages and drawbacks of covalent attachment on fine granular solids, immobilization as cross-linked enzyme aggregates, and "in vivo" immobilization methods are presented. In particular, criteria for optimal selection of CA-biocatalyst and design of CO2 absorption units are presented and discussed to highlight the most effective solutions. Perspectives on biocatalytic CCU processes that can include the use of CA in an enzymatic reactive CO2 absorption step are eventually presented with a special focus on two examples of CO2 fixation pathways: hybrid enzyme-microalgae process and enzyme cascade for the production of carboxylic acids. KEY POINTS: • Covalent immobilization techniques applied to CA are effective for CO2 ERA. • Biocatalyst type and morphology must be selected considering CO2 ERA conditions. • Immobilized CA can offer novel routes to CO2 capture and direct utilization.

Abstract
We report the synthesis of a hybrid nanocatalyst obtained through the immobilization of bio-inspired [{Mn(bpy)(H2O)}(µ-2-MeC6H4COO)2(µ-O){Mn(bpy)(NO3)}]NO3 compound into functionalized, monodispersed, mesoporous silica nanoparticles. The in situ dual functionalization sol–gel strategy adopted here leads to the synthesis of raspberry-shaped silica nanoparticles of ca. 72 nm with a large open porosity with preferential localization of 1,4-pyridine within the pores and sulfobetaine zwitterion on the nanoparticles’ periphery. These nano-objects exhibit improved catalase-mimicking activity in water thanks to the encapsulation/immobilization of the catalytic active complex and high colloidal stability in water, as demonstrated through the dismutation reaction of hydrogen peroxide.

Abstract
Two-dimensional covalent organic frameworks (2D-COFs) are a class of crystalline porous organic polymers that consist of covalently linked, two-dimensional sheets that can stack together through noncovalent interactions. Here we report the synthesis of a novel COF, called PyCOFamide, which has an experimentally observed pore size that is greater than 6 nm in diameter. This is among the largest pore size reported to date for a 2D-COF. PyCOFamide exhibits permanent porosity and high crystallinity as evidenced by the nitrogen adsorption, powder X-ray diffraction, and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. We show that the pore size of PyCOFamide is large enough to accommodate fluorescent proteins such as Superfolder green fluorescent protein and mNeonGreen. This work demonstrates the utility of noncovalent structural reinforcement in 2D-COFs to produce larger and persistent pore sizes than previously possible.

BIOMATERIALS ADVANCES 2022; 133:112621.

Abstract
Among different hollow nanostructures, the preparation of hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles (HMSNs) is still a hotspot research field due to their unique properties e.g., large pore sizes and volumes, high drug loading capacity, ease of surface modification, large surface area, and biodegradability. Herein, novel uniform HMSNs are prepared for the first time by a combination of heterogeneous oil-water biphase stratification and simple mono-, di-, and tri-valent etching reactions. The biphase stratification reaction allows self-assembly of reactants at the oil-water interface, while the subsequent step is designed for the efficient selective silica etching under mild conditions. We have studied the effect of cation's valence (NH4+, Ca2+, and Al3+) on the silica etching reaction coupled with the biphase stratification reaction both in the absence and presence of the auxiliary pore expanded agent 1, 3, 5 trimethylbenzene (TMB). In the absence of TMB, the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis confirms that Al3+ creates materials with the largest pore size (18.0 nm), whereas the use of NH4+ results in the largest pore volume (2.30 cm3/g). The pores generated using Ca2+ and Al3+ as silica etching agents have a volume 2.01 cm3/g and 2.05 cm3/g, respectively. Similar experiments in the presence of TMB leads to the formation of HMSN with larger pore sizes (24 nm and 21.5 nm) and volumes (2.70 cm3/g and 2.12 cm3/g) when using Al3+ and Ca2+, respectively, as etching agents. Drug loading capacity using Langmuir adsorption model indicate our hollow MSN material exhibit the high adsorbing DOX up to 558.23 mg per gram of nanoparticles in pH of 7.2. Furthermore, synthetized NPs exhibited high loading capacity for large protein and biomolecules such as BSA. Our findings confirmed that the charge density of cation has a critical role on selective silica etching in the preparation of HMSNs.

Abstract
Screening enzymatic active compounds is one of the important fields in drug research. α-Glucosidase can hydrolyze carbohydrates to monosaccharides after meals and lead to the rise of blood glucose levels in human body. Thus, the inhibition of α-glucosidase activity is an effective approach for the diabetes treatment. In this work, we developed a new method to simultaneously screen multiple bioactive compounds within a single CE running. The affect factors on the method performance, including injection, mixing, incubation, separation and detection, were carefully analyzed and discussed. Under the optimum, the mixture consisting of two internal standards (DMSO and 4-nitrophenol) and five compounds (lyoniresinol, hydroxytyrosol, rutin, kaempferol, and quercetin) was simultaneously screened, and kaempferol and quercetin showed stronger activity and this conclusion was also supported by offline assay. Furthermore, molecular docking was employed for investigating its interaction mechanism. Eventually, the established method has been applied to screen potential α-glucosidase inhibitors from an extract of Lycium barbarum and the peak area of rutin, taxifolin, quercetin, and chlorogenic acid in L. barbarum samples changed before and after the enzymatic reaction, confirming that these four compounds had potential inhibitory activities, which was consistent with the literature data. The present work provides a promising method for the target and rapid discovery of bioactive compounds from a plant extract or mixture.

Abstract
Porous silica particles have shown applications in various technological fields including their use as catalyst supports in heterogeneous catalysis. The mesoporous silica particles have ordered porosity, high surface area, and good chemical stability. These interesting structural or textural properties make porous silica an attractive material for use as catalyst supports in various heterogeneous catalysis reactions. The colloidal nature of the porous silica particles is highly useful in catalytic applications as it guarantees better mass transfer properties and uniform distribution of the various metal or metal oxide nanocatalysts in solution. The catalysts show high activity, low degree of metal leaching, and ease in recycling when supported or immobilized on porous silica-based materials. In this overview, we have pointed out the importance of porous silica as catalyst supports. A variety of chemical reactions catalyzed by different catalysts loaded or embedded in porous silica supports are studied. The latest reports from the literature about the use of porous silica-based materials as catalyst supports are listed and analyzed. The new and continued trends are discussed with examples.

Abstract
Mesoporous materials have drawn more and more attention in the field of biosensors due to their high surface areas, large pore volumes, tunable pore sizes, as well as abundant frameworks. In this review, the progress on mesoporous materials-based biosensors from enzymatic to nonenzymatic are highlighted. First, recent advances on the application of mesoporous materials as supports to stabilize enzymes in enzymatic biosensing technology are summarized. Special emphasis is placed on the effect of pore size, pore structure, and surface functional groups of the support on the immobilization efficiency of enzymes and the biosensing performance. Then, the development of a nonenzymatic strategy that uses the intrinsic property of mesoporous materials (carbon, silica, metals, and composites) to mimic the behavior of enzymes for electrochemical sensing of some biomolecules is discussed. Finally, the challenges and perspective on the future development of biosensors based on mesoporous materials are proposed.

Abstract
In a biological system, the spatiotemporal arrangement of enzymes in a dense cellular milieu, subcellular compartments, membrane-associated enzyme complexes on cell surfaces, scaffold-organized proteins, protein clusters, and modular enzymes have presented many paradigms for possible multienzyme immobilization designs that were adapted artificially. In metabolic channeling, the catalytic sites of participating enzymes are close enough to channelize the transient compound, creating a high local concentration of the metabolite and minimizing the interference of a competing pathway for the same precursor. Over the years, these phenomena had motivated researchers to make their immobilization approach naturally realistic by generating multienzyme fusion, cluster formation via affinity domain-ligand binding, cross-linking, conjugation on/in the biomolecular scaffold of the protein and nucleic acids, and self-assembly of amphiphilic molecules. This review begins with the discussion of substrate channeling strategies and recent empirical efforts to build it synthetically. After that, an elaborate discussion covering prevalent concepts related to the enhancement of immobilized enzymes' catalytic performance is presented. Further, the central part of the review summarizes the progress in nature motivated multienzyme assembly over the past decade. In this section, special attention has been rendered by classifying the nature-inspired strategies into three main categories: (i) multienzyme/domain complex mimic (scaffold-free), (ii) immobilization on the biomolecular scaffold, and (iii) compartmentalization. In particular, a detailed overview is correlated to the natural counterpart with advances made in the field. We have then discussed the beneficial account of coassembly of multienzymes and provided a synopsis of the essential parameters in the rational coimmobilization design.

Abstract
Efficient delivery of active proteins to specific cells and organs is one of the most important issues in medical applications. However, in most cases, proteins without appropriate carriers face numerous barriers when delivered to the target, due to their unsatisfied properties, such as poor stability, short half-life, and low membrane permeability. Herein, we have presented a large-pore mesoporous silica nanoparticle (LPMSN)-based protein delivery system. LPMSNs were obtained with ethyl acetate as a pore expander. A 2,3-dimethylmaleamic acid-containing silane coupling agent was modified on LPMSNs to provide pH-triggered charge reversal. After Cytochrome c (CC) was encapsulated in the large pores of LPMSNs, amino-terminated polyethylene glycol-modified gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) served as gateguards to cap the tunnels of LPMSNs and to avoid the leakage of CC. Above nanocomposites exhibited the capability to deliver active CC into cancer cells, charge reversal-induced protein release, as well as to initiate the apoptosis machinery of cancer cells in vitro. Importantly, the nanocomposites significantly inhibited tumor growth and extended survival rate without obvious side effects. This study provides a smart and efficient protein delivery platform with good safety profiles for efficacious tumor protein therapy in vivo.

Abstract
High catalytic efficiency, stereoselectivity, and sustainability outcomes of enzymes entice chemists for considering biocatalytic transformations to supplant conventional synthetic routes. As a green and versatile enzyme, horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-based enzymatic catalysis has been widely employed in a range of biological and chemical transformation processes. Nevertheless, like many other enzymes, HRP is likely to denature or destabilize in harsh realistic conditions due to its intrinsic fragile nature, which results in inevitably shortened lifespan and immensely high bioprocess cost. Enzyme immobilization has proven as a prospective strategy for improving their biocatalytic performance in continuous industrial processes. Nanostructured materials with huge accessible surface area, abundant porous structures, exceptional functionalities, and high chemical and mechanical stability have recently garnered intriguing research interests as novel kinds of supporting matrices for HRP immobilization. Many reported immobilized biocatalytic systems have demonstrated high catalytic performances than that to the free form of enzymes, such as enhanced enzyme efficiency, selectivity, stability, and repeatability due to the protective microenvironments provided by nanostructures. This review delineates an updated overview of HRP immobilization using an array of nanostructured materials. Furthermore, the general physicochemical aspects, improved catalytic attributes, and the robust practical implementations of engineered HRP-based catalytic cues are also discussed with suitable examples. To end, concluding remarks, challenges, and worthy suggestions/perspectives for future enzyme immobilization are also given.

Abstract
Mycelium is an abundant waste from the fermentation industry, and the environmental problems associated with its required disposal seriously limited the development of fermentation industry. In China, millions of tons of various kinds of mycelium residues were produced each year. Research into providing added-value to mycelium, while avoiding its disposal, is hence of paramount importance. Mycelium can be used as carrier for enzymes, while the enzyme immobilization moreover improves their stability and lifetime performance. Carrier recycling, the natural degradation and disposal of artificial polymer carriers are critical issues in immobilization. This research investigated its use to manufacture a highly-stable immobilized enzyme. An acid pretreatment was employed to enhance the adsorption ability of mycelium, and its adsorption ability was compared with other carriers. Under the optimal conditions, a core-shell immobilized enzyme with porous structure was obtained. The stability and the recycle results of the evaluation indicated the excellent performance of the immobilized enzyme. The mycelium recycling was also investigated to verify the practicability. All the results indicated that the use of a mycelium-based carrier was a promising strategy for the reutilization of the fermentation waste, and this technique provides an alternative way to reduce the total amount of the waste mycelium. Meanwhile, the stability and reusability performance of the mycelium-based immobilization could also decrease the influence of the disposal of the solid waste from denatured enzymes to the environment.

Abstract
The enormous versatility of mesoporous silica nanoparticles permits the creation of a large number of nanotherapeutic systems for the treatment of cancer and many other pathologies. In addition to the controlled release of small drugs, these materials allow a broad number of molecules of a very different nature and sizes. In this review, we focus on biogenic species with therapeutic abilities (proteins, peptides, nucleic acids, and glycans), as well as how nanotechnology, in particular silica-based materials, can help in establishing new and more efficient routes for their administration. Indeed, since the applicability of those combinations of mesoporous silica with bio(macro)molecules goes beyond cancer treatment, we address a classification based on the type of therapeutic action. Likewise, as illustrative content, we highlight the most typical issues and problems found in the preparation of those hybrid nanotherapeutic materials.

Factorial design-optimized and gamma irradiation-assisted fabrication of selenium nanoparticles by chitosan and Pleurotus ostreatus fermented fenugreek for a vigorous in vitro effect against carcinoma cells. Int J Biol Macromol 2019; 156:1584-1599. [PMID: 31790741 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2019.11.210] [Citation(s) in RCA: 35] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2019] [Revised: 11/20/2019] [Accepted: 11/26/2019] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
The novelty of the present work looks in the synthesis of aqueous dispersed selenium nanoparticles (Se NPs) using gamma rays with the aid of various natural macromolecules such as citrus pectin (CP), sodium alginate (Alg), chitosan (CS) and aqueous extract of fermented fenugreek powder (AEFFP) using Pleurotus ostreatus for investigating their impact in vitro toward carcinoma cell. The synthesized Se NPs were characterized by XRD, UV-Vis., DLS, HRTEM, SEM, EDX and FTIR. Nucleation and growth mechanisms were also discussed. The factorial design was applied to examine the importance of multiple parameters on Se NPs production with a special focus on temperature and gamma rays influences. FTIR spectrum exhibited the existence of several functional groups in Se NPs-capping macromolecules. Results revealed that Se NPs' size was dramatically-influenced by the type of stabilizer, precursors concentration, pH and the absorbed gamma rays dose. The current research reported the promising antitumor application of Se NPs against Ehrlich Ascites Carcinoma (EAC) and human Colon Adenocarcinoma (CACO) in vitro. The proliferation of EAC was significantly-hindered by Se NPs-CS (38.0 μg/ml) at 60 kGy (IC50 = 23.12%) and Se NPs-AEFFP (19.00 μg/ml) at 15 kGy (IC50 = 7.21%). Also, Se NPs control the generation of CACO cells, IC50 was recorded as 25.32% for Se NPs-CS (38.0 μg/ml) and 8.57% for Se NPs-AEFFP (19.00 μg/ml).

Abstract
Incorporation of biological systems in water nanodroplets has recently emerged as a new frontier to investigate structural changes of biomolecules, with perspective applications in ultra-fast drug delivery. We report on the molecular dynamics of the digestive protein Pepsin subjected to a double confinement. The double confinement stemmed from embedding the protein inside a water nanodroplet, which in turn was caged in a nanochannel mimicking the mesoporous silica SBA-15. The nano-bio-droplet, whose size fits with the pore diameter, behaved differently depending on the protonation state of the pore surface silanols. Neutral channel sections allowed for the droplet to flow, while deprotonated sections acted as anchoring piers for the droplet. Inside the droplet, the protein, not directly bonded to the surface, showed a behavior similar to that reported for bulk water solutions, indicating that double confinement should not alter its catalytic activity. Our results suggest that nanobiodroplets, recently fabricated in volatile environments, can be encapsulated and stored in mesoporous silicas.
