Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have received extensive attention in tumor therapy because of their advantages, including large specific surface area, regular pore size, adjustable shape, and facile functionalization. MOFs are porous materials formed by the coordination bonding of metal clusters and organic ligands. This review summarized the most recent advancements in tumor treatment based on nMOFs. First, we discuss the classification of MOFs, which primarily include the series of isoreticular MOF (IRMOF), zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF), coordination pillared-layer (CPL), Materials of Institute Lavoisier (MIL), porous coordination network (PCN), University of Oslo (UiO) and Biological metal-organic frameworks (BioMOFs). Then, we discuss the use of nMOFs in antitumor therapy, including drug delivery strategies, photodynamic therapy (PDT), photothermal therapy (PTT), and combination therapy. Finally, the obstacles and opportunities in nMOFs are discussed.

Mirhadi E, Kesharwani P, Johnston TP, Sahebkar A. Nanomedicine-mediated therapeutic approaches for pulmonary arterial hypertension. Drug Discov Today 2023; 28:103599. [PMID: 37116826 DOI: 10.1016/j.drudis.2023.103599] [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: 01/12/2023] [Revised: 03/29/2023] [Accepted: 04/21/2023] [Indexed: 04/30/2023]
Abstract
Nanomedicine has emerged as a field in which there are opportunities to improve the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of incurable diseases. Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is known as a severe and fatal disease affecting children and adults. Conventional treatments have not produced optimal effectiveness in treating this condition. Several reasons for this include drug instability, poor solubility of the drug and a shortened duration of pharmacological action. The present review focuses on new approaches for delivering anti-PAH drugs using nanotechnology with the aim of overcoming these shortcomings and increasing their efficacy. Solid-lipid nanoparticles, liposomes, metal-organic frameworks and polymeric nanoparticles have demonstrated advantages for the potential treatment of PAH, including increased drug bioavailability, drug solubility and accumulation in the lungs.

Abstract
Cancer is a multifaceted disease that results from the complex interaction between genetic and environmental factors. Cancer is a mortal disease with the biggest clinical, societal, and economic burden. Research on better methods of the detection, diagnosis, and treatment of cancer is crucial. Recent advancements in material science have led to the development of metal–organic frameworks, also known as MOFs. MOFs have recently been established as promising and adaptable delivery platforms and target vehicles for cancer therapy. These MOFs have been constructed in a fashion that offers them the capability of drug release that is stimuli-responsive. This feature has the potential to be exploited for cancer therapy that is externally led. This review presents an in-depth summary of the research that has been conducted to date in the field of MOF-based nanoplatforms for cancer therapeutics.

ZnO@ZIF-8 Nanoparticles as Nanocarrier of Ciprofloxacin for Antimicrobial Activity. Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:pharmaceutics15010259.

Abstract
Numerous antimicrobial drugs have been prescribed to kill or inhibit the growth of microbes such as bacteria, fungi, and viruses. Despite the known therapeutic efficacy of these drugs, inefficient delivery could result in an inadequate therapeutic index and several side effects. In order to overcome this adversity, the present study investigated antibiotic drug loading in zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs), in association with ZnO nanoparticles with known antimicrobial properties. In an economic synthesis method, the ZnO surface was first converted to ZIF-8 with 2-methylimidazole as a ligand, resulting in a ZnO@ZIF-8 structure. This system enables the high drug-loading efficiency (46%) of an antimicrobial drug, ciprofloxacin, within the pores of the ZIF-8. This association provides a control of the release of the active moieties, in simulated body-fluid conditions, with a maximum of 67% released in 96 h. The antibacterial activities of ZnO@ZIF-8 and CIP-ZnO@ZIF-8 were tested against the Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus strain and the Gram-negative Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain, showing good growth inhibition. This result was obtained by combining ZnO@ZIF-8 with ciprofloxacin in a minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) that was 10 times lower than ZnO@ZIF-8 for S. aureus and 200 times lower for P. aeruginosa, suggesting that CIP-ZnO@ZIF-8 may have potential application in prolonged antimicrobial treatment.

Abstract
The application of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) in drug delivery has advanced rapidly over the past decade, showing huge progress in the development of novel systems. Although a large number of versatile MOFs that can carry and release multiple compounds have been designed and tested, one of the main limitations to their translation to the clinic is the limited biological understanding of their interaction with cells and the way they penetrate them. This is a crucial aspect of drug delivery, as MOFs need to be able not only to enter into cells but also to release their cargo in the correct intracellular location. While small molecules can enter cells by passive diffusion, nanoparticles (NPs) usually require an energy-dependent process known as endocytosis. Importantly, the fate of NPs after being taken up by cells is dependent on the endocytic pathways they enter through. However, no general guidelines for MOF particle internalization have been established due to the inherent complexity of endocytosis as a mechanism, with several factors affecting cellular uptake, namely NP size and surface chemistry. In this review, we cover recent advances regarding the understanding of the mechanisms of uptake of nano-sized MOFs (nanoMOFs)s, their journey inside the cell, and the importance of biological context in their final fate. We examine critically the impact of MOF physicochemical properties on intracellular trafficking and successful cargo delivery. Finally, we highlight key unanswered questions on the topic and discuss the future of the field and the next steps for nanoMOFs as drug delivery systems.

Abstract
Biomacromolecular drugs have become an important class of therapeutic agents for the treatment of human diseases. Considering their high propensity for being degraded in the human body, the choice of an appropriate delivery system is key to ensure the therapeutic efficacy of biomacromolecular drugs in vivo. As an emerging class of supramolecular "host" materials, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) exhibit advantages in terms of the tunability of pore size, encapsulation efficiency, controllable drug release, simplicity in surface functionalization and good biocompatibility. As a result, MOF-based host-guest systems have been extensively developed as a new class of flexible and powerful platform for the delivery of therapeutic biomacromolecules. In this review, we summarize current research progress in the synthesis of MOFs as delivery materials for a variety of biomacromolecules. Firstly, we briefly introduce the advances made in the use of biomacromolecular drugs for disease therapy and the types of commonly used clinical delivery systems. We then describe the advantages of using MOFs as delivery materials. Secondly, the strategies for the construction of MOF-encapsulated biomacromolecules (Biomacromolecules@MOFs) and the release mechanisms of the therapeutics are categorized. Thirdly, the application of MOFs to deliver different types of biomacromolecules (e.g., antigens/antibodies, enzymes, therapeutic proteins, DNA/RNA, polypeptides, and polysaccharides) for the treatment of various human diseases based on immunotherapy, gene therapy, starvation therapy and oxidation therapy is summarized. Finally, the remaining challenges and available opportunities for MOFs as drug delivery systems are outlined, which we anticipate will encourage additional research efforts directed towards developing Biomacromolecules@MOFs systems for biomedical applications.

Abstract
Cancers of the gastrointestinal tract constitute one of the most common cancer types worldwide and a ∼58% increase in the global number of cases has been estimated by IARC for the next twenty years. Recent advances in drug delivery technologies have attracted scientific interest for developing and utilizing efficient therapeutic systems. The present review focuses on the use of nanoscale MOFs (Nano-MOFs) as carriers for drug delivery and imaging purposes. In pursuit of significant improvements to current gastrointestinal cancer chemotherapy regimens, systems that allow multiple concomitant therapeutic options (polytherapy) and controlled release are highly desirable. In this sense, MOF-based nanotherapeutics represent a significant step towards achieving this goal. Here, the current state-of-the-art of interdisciplinary research and novel developments into MOF-based gastrointestinal cancer therapy are highlighted and reviewed.
