Abstract
Ceria nanoparticles (CeO2 NPs) have become popular materials in biomedical and industrial fields due to their potential applications in anti-oxidation, cancer therapy, photocatalytic degradation of pollutants, sensors, etc. Many methods, including gas phase, solid phase, liquid phase, and the newly proposed green synthesis method, have been reported for the synthesis of CeO2 NPs. Due to the wide application of CeO2 NPs, concerns about their adverse impacts on human health have been raised. This review covers recent studies on the biomedical applications of CeO2 NPs, including their use in the treatment of various diseases (e.g., Alzheimer's disease, ischemic stroke, retinal damage, chronic inflammation, and cancer). CeO2 NP toxicity is discussed in terms of the different systems of the human body (e.g., cytotoxicity, genotoxicity, respiratory toxicity, neurotoxicity, and hepatotoxicity). This comprehensive review covers both fundamental discoveries and exploratory progress in CeO2 NP research that may lead to practical developments in the future.

Abstract
The growing interest in nanomedicine over the last 20 years has carved out a research field called "nanocatalytic therapy," where catalytic reactions mediated by nanomaterials are employed to intervene in disease-critical biomolecular processes. Among many kinds of catalytic/enzyme-mimetic nanomaterials investigated thus far, ceria nanoparticles stand out from others owing to their unique scavenging properties against biologically noxious free radicals, including reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS), by exerting enzyme mimicry and nonenzymatic activities. Much effort has been made to utilize ceria nanoparticles as self-regenerating antioxidative and anti-inflammatory agents for various kinds of diseases, given the detrimental effects of ROS and RNS therein that need alleviation. In this context, this review is intended to provide an overview as to what makes ceria nanoparticles merit attention in disease therapy. The introductory part describes the characteristics of ceria nanoparticles as an oxygen-deficient metal oxide. The pathophysiological roles of ROS and RNS are then presented, as well as their scavenging mechanisms by ceria nanoparticles. Representative examples of recent ceria-nanoparticle-based therapeutics are summarized by categorization into organ and disease types, followed by the discussion on the remaining challenges and future research directions.

Abstract
Ischemic stroke (IS) is one of the most common causes of disability and death. Thrombolysis and neuroprotection are two current major therapeutic strategies to overcome ischemic and reperfusion damage. In this work, a novel peptide-templated manganese dioxide nanozyme (PNzyme/MnO2 ) is designed that integrates the thrombolytic activity of functional peptides with the reactive oxygen species scavenging ability of nanozymes. Through self-assembled polypeptides that contain multiple functional motifs, the novel peptide-templated nanozyme is able to bind fibrin in the thrombus, cross the blood-brain barrier, and finally accumulate in the ischemic neuronal tissues, where the thrombolytic motif is "switched-on" by the action of thrombin. In mice and rat IS models, the PNzyme/MnO2 prolongs the blood-circulation time and exhibits strong thrombolytic action, and reduces the ischemic damages in brain tissues. Moreover, this peptide-templated nanozyme also effectively inhibits the activation of astrocytes and the secretion of proinflammatory cytokines. These data indicate that the rationally designed PNzyme/MnO2 nanozyme exerts both thrombolytic and neuroprotective actions. Giving its long half-life in the blood and ability to target brain thrombi, the biocompatible nanozyme may serve as a novel therapeutic agent to improve the efficacy and prevent secondary thrombosis during the treatment of IS.

Abstract
Acute liver injury (ALI) is a highly fatal condition characterized by sudden massive necrosis of liver cells, inflammation, and impaired coagulation function. Currently, the primary clinical approach for managing ALI involves symptom management based on the underlying causes. The association between excessive reactive oxygen species originating from macrophages and acute liver injury is noteworthy. Therefore, we designed a novel nanoscale phase variant contrast agent, denoted as PFP@CeO2@Lips, which effectively scavenges reactive oxygen species, and enables visualization through low intensity pulsed ultrasound activation. The efficacy of the nanoparticles in scavenging excess reactive oxygen species from RAW264.7 and protective AML12 cells has been demonstrated through in vitro and in vivo experiments. Additionally, these nanoparticles have shown a protective effect against LPS/D-GalN attack in C57BL/6J mice. Furthermore, when exposed to LIPUS irritation, the nanoparticles undergo liquid-gas phase transition and enable ultrasound imaging.

Abstract
Cancer presents a significant medical challenge that requires effective management. Current cancer treatment options, such as chemotherapy, targeted therapy, radiotherapy, and immunotherapy, have limitations in terms of their efficacy and the potential harm they can cause to normal tissues. In response, researchers have been focusing on developing adjuvants that can enhance tumor responses while minimizing damage to healthy tissues. Among the promising options, nanoceria (NC), a type of nanoparticle composed of cerium oxide, has garnered attention for its potential to improve various cancer treatment regimens. Nanoceria has demonstrated its ability to exhibit toxicity towards cancer cells, inhibit invasion, and sensitize cancer cells to both radiation therapy and chemotherapy. The remarkable aspect is that nanoceria show minimal toxicity to normal tissues while protecting against various forms of reactive oxygen species generation. Its capability to enhance the sensitivity of cancer cells to chemotherapy and radiotherapy has also been observed. This paper thoroughly reviews the current literature on nanoceria's applications within different cancer treatment modalities, with a specific focus on radiotherapy. The emphasis is on nanoceria's unique role in enhancing tumor radiosensitization and safeguarding normal tissues from radiation damage.

Abstract
Diabetic wounds (DW) are constantly challenged by excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation and susceptibility to bacterial contamination. Therefore, the elimination of ROS in the immediate vicinity and the eradication of local bacteria are critical to stimulating the efficient healing of diabetic wounds. In the current study, we encapsulated mupirocin (MP) and cerium oxide nanoparticles (CeNPs) into a polyvinyl alcohol/chitosan (PVA/CS) polymer, and then a PVA/chitosan nanofiber membrane wound dressing was fabricated using electrostatic spinning, which is a simple and efficient method for fabricating membrane materials. The PVA/chitosan nanofiber dressing provided a controlled release of MP, which produced rapid and long-lasting bactericidal activity against both methicillin-sensitive S. aureus (MSSA) and methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) strains. Simultaneously, the CeNPs embedded in the membrane exhibited the desired ROS scavenging capacity to maintain the local ROS at a normal physiological level. Moreover, the biocompatibility of the multifunctional dressing was evaluated both in vitro and in vivo. Taken together, PVA-CS-CeNPs-MP integrated the desirable features of a wound dressing, including rapid and broad-spectrum antimicrobial and ROS scavenging activities, easy application, and good biocompatibility. The results validated the effectiveness of our PVA/chitosan nanofiber dressing, highlighting its promising translational potential in the treatment of diabetic wounds.

Abstract
Cyclodextrins have gained significant and established attention as versatile carriers for the delivery of bioactive compounds derived from natural sources in various applications, including medicine, food and cosmetics. Their toroidal structure and hydrophobic cavity render them ideal candidates for encapsulating and solubilizing hydrophobic and poorly soluble compounds. Most medicinal, food and cosmetic ingredients share the challenges of hydrophobicity and degradation that can be effectively addressed by various cyclodextrin types. Though not new or novel-their first applications appeared in the market in the 1970s-their versatility has inspired numerous developments, either on the academic or industrial level. This review article provides an overview of the ever-growing applications of cyclodextrins in the delivery of bioactive compounds from natural sources and their potential application benefits.

Abstract
Over past decades, nanotechnology has contributed to the biomedical field in areas including detection, diagnosis, and drug delivery via opto-electronic properties or enhancement of biological effects. Though generally considered inert delivery vehicles, a plethora of past and present evidence demonstrates that nanomaterials also exude unique intrinsic biological activity based on composition, shape, and surface functionalization. These intrinsic biological activities, termed self-therapeutic properties, take several forms, including mediation of cell-cell interactions, modulation of interactions between biomolecules, catalytic amplification of biochemical reactions, and alteration of biological signal transduction events. Moreover, study of biomolecule-nanomaterial interactions offers a promising avenue for uncovering the molecular mechanisms of biology and the evolution of disease. In this review, we observe the historical development, synthesis, and characterization of self-therapeutic nanomaterials. Next, we discuss nanomaterial interactions with biological systems, starting with administration and concluding with elimination. Finally, we apply this materials perspective to advances in intrinsic nanotherapies across the biomedical field, from cancer therapy to treatment of microbial infections and tissue regeneration. We conclude with a description of self-therapeutic nanomaterials in clinical trials and share our perspective on the direction of the field in upcoming years.

Abstract
Psoriasis is a complex autoimmune skin condition with a significant genetic component. It causes skin inflammation and is characterized by flaky, silvery reddish spots that can worsen with age. This condition results from an impaired immunological response of T-cells and affects 2-5% of the global population. The severity of the illness determines the choice of treatment. Topical treatments are commonly used to treat psoriasis, but they can have several adverse effects. Biological therapy is another option for treating specific types of psoriasis. Recently, new nanoformulations have revolutionized psoriasis treatment. Various nanocarriers, such as liposomes, nanostructured lipid nanoparticles, niosomes, and nanoemulsions, have been developed and improved for drug delivery. The use of nanocarriers enhances patient compliance, precise drug delivery, and drug safety. This review aims to suggest new nanocarrier-based drug delivery systems for treating psoriasis. It discusses the importance of nanocarriers and compares them to traditional treatments. Anti-psoriatic drugs have also been investigated for cutaneous delivery using nanocarriers. The review also covers various factors that influence dermal targeting. By highlighting several relevant aspects of psoriasis treatment, the review emphasizes the current potential of nanotechnology. Using nanocarriers as a drug delivery technique may be a promising alternative treatment for psoriasis.

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

Abstract
In the onset and progression of psoriasis, redox imbalance is a vital factor. It's widely accepted that too much reactive oxygen species (ROS) always make psoriasis worse. Recent research, however, has shown that the accumulation of ROS is not entirely detrimental, as it helps reduce psoriasis lesions by inhibiting epidermal proliferation and keratinocyte death. As a result, ROS appears to have two opposing effects on the treatment of psoriasis. In this review, the current ROS-related therapies for psoriasis, including basic and clinical research, are presented. Additionally, the design and therapeutic benefits of various drug delivery systems and therapeutic approaches are examined, and a potential balance between anti-oxidative stress and ROS accumulation is also trying to be investigated.

Abstract
Tendon injury is a tricky and prevalent motor system disease, leading to compromised daily activity and disability. Insufficient regenerative capability and dysregulation of immune microenvironment are the leading causes of functional loss. First, this work identifies persistent oxidative stress and mitochondrial impairment in the regional tendon tissues postinjury. Therefore, a smart scaffold incorporating the enzyme mimicry nanoparticle-ceria nanozyme (CeNPs) into the nanofiber bundle scaffold (NBS@CeO) with porous, anisotropic, and enhanced mechanical properties is designed to innovatively explore a targeted energy-supporting repair strategy by rescuing mitochondrial function and remodeling the microenvironment favoring endogenous regeneration. The integrated CeNPs scavenge excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS), stabilize the mitochondria membrane potential (ΔΨm), and ATP synthesis of tendon-derived stem cells (TDSCs) under oxidative stress. In a rat Achilles tendon defect model, NBS@CeO reduces oxidative damage and accelerates structural regeneration of collagen fibers, manifesting as recovering mechanical properties and motor function. Furthermore, NBS@CeO mediates the rebalance of endogenous regenerative signaling and dysregulated immune microenvironment by alleviating senescence and apoptosis of TDSCs, downregulating the secretion of senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), and inducing macrophage M2 polarization. This innovative strategy highlights the role of NBS@CeO in tendon repair and thus provides a potential therapeutic approach for promoting tendon regeneration.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) at supraphysiological concentration have a determinate role in contributing to immuno-metabolic disorders in the epithelial immune microenvironment (EIME) of psoriatic lesions. With an exclusive focus on the gene-oxidative stress environment interaction in the EIME, a comprehensive strategy based on ROS-regulating nanomedicines is greatly anticipated to become the mainstay of anti-psoriasis treatment. This potential therapeutic modality could inhibit the acceleration of psoriasis via remodeling the redox equilibrium and reshaping the EIME. Herein, we present a marked overview of the current progress in the pathomechanisms of psoriasis, with particular concerns on the potential pathogenic role of ROS, which significantly dysregulates redox metabolism of keratinocytes (KCs) and skin-resident or -infiltrating cells. Meanwhile, the emergence of versatile nanomaterial-guided evolution for transdermal drug delivery has been attractive for the percutaneous administration of antipsoriatic therapies in recent years. We emphasize the underlying molecular mechanism of ROS-based nanoreactors for improved therapeutic outcomes against psoriasis and summarize up-to-date progress relating to the advantages and limitations of nanotherapeutic application for transdermal administration, as well as update an insight into potential future directions for nanotherapies in ROS-related skin diseases.

Abstract
Ceria (CeO2) nanostructures are well-known in catalysis for energy and environmental preservation and remediation. Recently, they have also been gaining momentum for biological applications in virtue of their unique redox properties that make them antioxidant or pro-oxidant, depending on the experimental conditions and ceria nanomorphology. In particular, interest has grown in the use of biotemplates to exert control over ceria morphology and reactivity. However, only a handful of reports exist on the use of specific biomolecules to template ceria nucleation and growth into defined nanostructures. This review focusses on the latest advancements in the area of biomolecular templates for ceria nanostructures and existing opportunities for their (bio)applications.

Abstract
Superoxide dismutases (SODs) are a group of metalloenzymes that catalyze the dismutation of superoxide radicals (O2˙-) into hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and oxygen (O2). As the first line of defense against reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated damage, SODs are expected to play an important role in the treatment of oxidative stress-related diseases. However, the clinical applications of SODs have been severely limited by their structural instability and high cost. Compared with natural enzymes, nanozymes, nanomaterials with enzyme-like activity, are more stable, and economical, can be easily modified and their activities can be adjusted. Due to their excellent characteristics, nanozymes have attracted widespread attention in recent years and are expected to become effective substitutes for natural enzymes in many application fields. Importantly, some nanozymes with SOD-like activity have been developed and proved to have a mitigating effect on diseases caused by oxidative stress. These studies on SOD-like nanozymes provide a feasible strategy for breaking through the dilemma of SOD clinical applications. However, at present, the specific catalytic mechanism of SOD-like nanozymes is still unclear, and many important issues need to be resolved. Although there are many comprehensive reviews to introduce the overall situation of the nanozyme field, the research on SOD-like nanozymes still lacks a systematic review. From the structure and mechanism of natural SOD enzymes to the structure and regulation of SOD-like nanozymes, and then to the measurement and application of nanozymes, this review systematically summarizes the recent progress in SOD-like nanozymes. The existing shortcomings and possible future research hotspots in the development of SOD-like nanozymes are summarized and prospected. We hope that this review would provide ideas and inspirations for further research on the catalytic mechanism and rational design of SOD-like nanozymes.

TPGS assists the percutaneous administration of curcumin and glycyrrhetinic acid coloaded functionalized ethosomes for the synergistic treatment of psoriasis. Int J Pharm 2021; 604:120762.

Abstract
Combined therapy with anti-inflammatory drugs is preferred for the topical treatment of psoriasis, but the codelivery of drugs is restricted due to the lack of a suitable delivery system. Ethosomes with excellenttransdermal propertiesare perfect as carriers for hyperplastic skin. Therefore, glycyrrhetinic acid-D-α-tocopherol acid polyethylene glycol succinate (GA-TPGS) was synthesized, which prevented the inflammation and lipid peroxidation damage, thus effectively stabilizing the psoriasis. Then GA-TPGS was surface-modified on the curcumin (Cur) loaded ethosomes to construct curcumin-loaded GA-TPGS-modified multifunctional ethosomes (Cur@GA-TPGS-ES), exerting synergistic treatment for psoriasis. Using an interleukin-6-induced cell model, we found that Cur@GA-TPGS-ES displayed desirable suppression of inflammation response and oxidative stress damage. Compared with the ethanol solution, the percutaneous penetration rates of Cur and GA in Cur@GA-TPGS-ES were superior. In vivo microdialysis revealed similar results, suggesting an increase of transcutaneous absorption in Cur@GA-TPGS-ES. Fluorescence staining revealed that the cellular uptake and skin distribution were distinctly enhanced with the delivery by Cur@GA-TPGS-ES. After topical administration to imiquimod-induced psoriatic mice, the Cur@GA-TPGS-ES group showed powerful treatment from inflammatory infiltration inhibition of Cur, glucocorticoid-like effects of GA and anti-lipid peroxidation of TPGS. Overall, GA-TPGS mediated ethosomes possess more advantageous transdermal properties and synergistic antipsoriatic efficacy.

Abstract
The ongoing biomedical nanotechnology has intrigued increasingly intense interests in cerium oxide nanoparticles, ceria nanoparticles or nano-ceria (CeO2-NPs). Their remarkable vacancy-oxygen defect (VO) facilitates the redox process and catalytic activity. The verification has illustrated that CeO2-NPs, a nanozyme based on inorganic nanoparticles, can achieve the anti-inflammatory effect, cancer resistance, and angiogenesis. Also, they can well complement other materials in tissue engineering (TE). Pertinent to the properties of CeO2-NPs and the pragmatic biosynthesis methods, this review will emphasize the recent application of CeO2-NPs to orthopedic biomedicine, in particular, the bone tissue engineering (BTE). The presentation, assessment, and outlook of the orthopedic potential and shortcomings of CeO2-NPs in this review expect to provide reference values for the future research and development of therapeutic agents based on CeO2-NPs.

Cerium Oxide Nanoparticles Regulate Osteoclast Differentiation Bidirectionally by Modulating the Cellular Production of Reactive Oxygen Species. Int J Nanomedicine 2020; 15:6355-6372.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cerium oxide nanoparticles (CeO2NPs) are potent scavengers of cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS). Their antioxidant properties make CeO2NPs promising therapeutic agents for bone diseases and bone tissue engineering. However, the effects of CeO2NPs on intracellular ROS production in osteoclasts (OCs) are still unclear. Numerous studies have reported that intracellular ROS are essential for osteoclastogenesis. The aim of this study was to explore the effects of CeO2NPs on osteoclast differentiation and the potential underlying mechanisms. METHODS The bidirectional modulation of osteoclast differentiation by CeO2NPs was explored by different methods, such as fluorescence microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), and Western blotting. The cytotoxic and proapoptotic effects of CeO2NPs were detected by cell counting kit (CCK-8) assay, TdT-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL) assay, and flow cytometry. RESULTS The results of this study demonstrated that although CeO2NPs were capable of scavenging ROS in acellular environments, they facilitated the production of ROS in the acidic cellular environment during receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-Β ligand (RANKL)-dependent osteoclast differentiation of bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMMs). CeO2NPs at lower concentrations (4.0 µg/mL to 8.0 µg/mL) promoted osteoclast formation, as shown by increased expression of Nfatc1 and C-Fos, F-actin ring formation and bone resorption. However, at higher concentrations (greater than 16.0 µg/mL), CeO2NPs inhibited osteoclast differentiation and promoted apoptosis of BMMs by reducing Bcl2 expression and increasing the expression of cleaved caspase-3, which may be due to the overproduction of ROS. CONCLUSION This study demonstrates that CeO2NPs facilitate osteoclast formation at lower concentrations while inhibiting osteoclastogenesis in vitro by inducing the apoptosis of BMMs at higher concentrations by modulating cellular ROS levels.

Abstract
Many autoimmune disorders such as psoriasis lead to the alteration of skin components which generally manifests as unwanted topical symptoms. One of the most widely approved psoriasis-like animal models is the imiquimod (IMQ)-induced mouse model. This representation mimics various aspects of the complex cutaneous pathology and could be appropriate for testing topical treatment options. We perform a thorough characterization of this model by assessing some parameters that are not fully described in the literature, namely a precise description of skin disruption. It was evaluated by transepidermal water loss measurements and analyses of epidermis swelling as a consequence of keratinocyte hyperproliferation. The extent of neo-angiogenesis and hypervascularity in dermis were highlighted by immunostaining. Moreover, we investigated systemic inflammation through cytokines levels, spleen swelling and germinal centers appearance in draining lymph nodes. The severity of all parameters was correlated to IMQ concentration in skin samples. This study outlines new parameters of interest useful to assess this model. We highlight the skin barrier disruption and report a systemic inflammatory reaction occurring at distance both in spleen and lymph nodes. These newly identified biological endpoints could be exploited to investigate the efficacy of therapeutic candidates for psoriasis and more extensively for several other skin inflammatory diseases.
