Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an endogenously produced gasotransmitter involved in many physiological processes that are integral to proper cellular functioning. Due to its profound anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, H2S plays important roles in preventing inflammatory skin disorders and improving wound healing. Transdermal H2S delivery is a therapeutically viable option for the management of such disorders. However, current small-molecule H2S donors are not optimally suited for transdermal delivery and typically generate electrophilic byproducts that may lead to undesired toxicity. Here, we demonstrate that H2S release from metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) bearing coordinatively unsaturated metal centers is a promising alternative for controlled transdermal delivery of H2S. Gas sorption measurements and powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) studies of 11 MOFs support that the Mg-based framework Mg2(dobdc) (dobdc4- = 2,5-dioxidobenzene-1,4-dicarboxylate) is uniquely well-suited for transdermal H2S delivery due to its strong yet reversible binding of H2S, high capacity (14.7 mmol/g at 1 bar and 25 °C), and lack of toxicity. In addition, Rietveld refinement of synchrotron PXRD data from H2S-dosed Mg2(dobdc) supports that the high H2S capacity of this framework arises due to the presence of three distinct binding sites. Last, we demonstrate that transdermal delivery of H2S from Mg2(dobdc) is sustained over a 24 h period through porcine skin. Not only is this significantly longer than sodium sulfide but this represents the first example of controlled transdermal delivery of pure H2S gas. Overall, H2S-loaded Mg2(dobdc) is an easily accessible, solid-state source of H2S, enabling safe storage and transdermal delivery of this therapeutically relevant gas.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as promising nanocarriers for cancer treatment due to their unique properties. Featuring high porosity, extensive surface area, chemical stability, and good biocompatibility, MOFs are ideal for efficient drug delivery, targeted therapy, and controlled release. They can be designed to target specific cellular organelles to disrupt metabolic processes in cancer cells. Additionally, functionalization with enzymes mimics their catalytic activity, enhancing photodynamic therapy and overcoming apoptosis resistance in cancer cells. The controllable and regular structure of MOFs, along with their tumor microenvironment responsiveness, make them promising nanocarriers for anticancer drugs. These carriers can effectively deliver a wide range of drugs with improved bioavailability, controlled release rate, and targeted delivery efficiency compared to alternatives. In this article, we review both experimental and computational studies focusing on the interaction between MOFs and drug, explicating the release mechanisms and stability in physiological conditions. Notably, we explore the relationship between MOF structure and its ability to damage cancer cells, elucidating why MOFs are excellent candidates for bio-applicability. By understanding the problem and exploring potential solutions, this review provides insights into the future directions for harnessing the full potential of MOFs, ultimately leading to improved therapeutic outcomes in cancer treatment.

Abstract
β-Glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.21) from sweet almond was encapsulated into pH-responsive alginate-polyethylenimine (alginate-PEI) hydrogel. Then, electrochemically controlled cyclic local pH changes resulting from ascorbate oxidation (acidification) and oxygen reduction (basification) were used for the pulsatile release of the enzyme from the composite hydrogel. Activation of the enzyme was controlled by the very same pH changes used for β-glucosidase release, separating these two processes in time. Importantly, the activity of the enzyme, which had not been released yet, was inhibited due to the buffering effect of PEI present in the gel. Thus, only a portion of the released enzyme was activated. Both enzymatic activity and release were monitored by confocal fluorescence microscopy and regular fluorescent spectroscopy. Namely, commercially available very little or nonfluorescent substrate 4-methylumbelliferyl-β-d-glucopyranoside was hydrolyzed by β-glucosidase to produce a highly fluorescent product 4-methylumbelliferone during the activation phase. At the same time, labeling of the enzyme with rhodamine B isothiocyanate was used for release observation. The proposed work represents an interesting smart release-activation system with potential applications in biomedical field.

Abstract
With over 9 million fatalities per year expected by 2030, infectious diseases will remain a significant burden on the world economy and cause high mortality rates. An excellent method to increase the bioactivity of levofloxacin (LEV) in pediatric abdominal wound repair is the finding of a stimuli-based drug delivery system (DDS). We designed and developed an LEV incorporated with zeolite imidazole framework-8 (ZIF-8) as a promising nanocarrier for wound healing applications. The spectral analysis and morphological analysis confirm the formation of our newly fabricated composites. Mouse embryonic fibroblast NIH3T3 cells, the cytotoxicity, cytocompatibility, and cell proliferation characteristics of LEV@ZIF-8 were evaluated in vitro. LEV@ZIF-8 composite considerably improved the biocompatibility against NIH3T3 cells after 72-h of exposure, according to in vitro experiments. Under acidic circumstances, the pH-responsive drug release studies exhibit superior LEV release, and in physiological circumstances, there is no unintended drug release. The LEV@ZIF-8 composite-treated cells demonstrate the most remarkable cell growth and migration method in a very short time, according to the results of the wound scratch experiment. The composite exposure concentration depended on inhibition against various microorganisms in the antibacterial activity testing. According to the study, LEV@ZIF-8 are appropriate and effective DDS for stimuli-based pediatric abdominal wound repair.

Abstract
A unitary model of drug release dynamics is proposed, assuming that the polymer-drug system can be assimilated into a multifractal mathematical object. Then, we made a description of drug release dynamics that implies, via Scale Relativity Theory, the functionality of continuous and undifferentiable curves (fractal or multifractal curves), possibly leading to holographic-like behaviors. At such a conjuncture, the Schrödinger and Madelung multifractal scenarios become compatible: in the Schrödinger multifractal scenario, various modes of drug release can be "mimicked" (via period doubling, damped oscillations, modulated and "chaotic" regimes), while the Madelung multifractal scenario involves multifractal diffusion laws (Fickian and non-Fickian diffusions). In conclusion, we propose a unitary model for describing release dynamics in polymer-drug systems. In the model proposed, the polymer-drug dynamics can be described by employing the Scale Relativity Theory in the monofractal case or also in the multifractal one.

Abstract
Access to clean drinking water is a basic requirement, and eliminating pollutants from wastewater is important for saving water ecosystems. The porous structure and surface characteristics of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) can function as a perfect scaffold for removing toxic compounds from wastewater. Porphyrins are promising building blocks for constructing MOFs. Porphyrin-based metal-organic frameworks (P-MOFs) have been fabricated using porphyrin ligands, metal clusters, or ions. These materials can harvest light from a wide region of the solar spectrum, and their framework morphology and physicochemical properties can be controlled by changing their peripheral subunits or metal ions. These porous crystalline materials have generated interest because of their distinctive characteristics, including large permanent porosity, interesting surface morphology, broad conformational diversity, high photostability, and semiconducting nature. This article discusses the recent progress and usefulness of P-MOFs. The fabrication procedures of P-MOFs are discussed, followed by the adsorptive and photocatalytic removal of contaminants from wastewater. The relationships between the geometries of P-MOFs and their light-harvesting and charge-transfer mechanisms for the photocatalytic degradation of pollutants are highlighted. Finally, some future perspectives and obstacles in the photodegradation usage of P-MOFs are discussed, along with feasible research directions to standardize efficient photocatalysts for improved photodegradation for water treatment.

Abstract
This study presents a facile preparation and durable amorphous Fe and Al-based MOF nanoplate (AlFe-BTC MOFs) catalyst with notable stability in Fenton reactions. Rigorous characterization using XRD, HR-TEM, and BET confirms the amorphous nature of the synthesized AlFe-BTC MOFs, revealing mesopores (3.4 nm diameter), a substantial surface area (232 m2/g), and a pore volume of 0.69 cc/g. XPS analysis delineates distinct Al2p and Fe2p binding energy values, signifying specific chemical bonding. FE-SEM elemental mapping elucidates the distinctive distribution of Fe and Al within the framework of AlFe-BTC MOFs. In catalytic activity testing, the amorphous AlFe-BTC MOFs exhibited outstanding performance, achieving complete degradation of Methylene blue (MB) dye and 78% TOC removal over 45 min of treatment under mild reaction conditions. The catalyst's durability was assessed, revealing about 75% TOC removal and complete dye decomposition over five successive recycles, with less than 1 mg/L of Fe and Al leaching. UV-Vis spectra revealed the destruction of MB dye over multiple recycling studies. Based on this finding, the amorphous AlFe-BTC MOF nanoplates emerge as a promising solution for efficient dye removal from industrial wastewater, underscoring their potential in advanced environmental remediation processes.

Their high surface area, pore structures, stimuli-responsiveness, antibacterial properties, biocompatibility, and potential for combination therapies make them suitable for complex wound care challenges. MOF-based composites promote cell proliferation, angiogenesis, and matrix synthesis, acting as carriers for bioactive molecules and promoting tissue regeneration. They also have stimuli-responsivity, enabling photothermal therapies for skin cancer and infections. Herein, a critical analysis of the current state of research on MOFs and MOF-based composites for wound healing and dressings is provided, offering valuable insights into the potential applications, challenges, and future directions in this field. This literature review has targeted the multifunctionality nature of MOFs in wound-disease therapy and healing from different aspects and discussed the most recent advancements made in the field. In this context, the potential reader will find how the MOFs contributed to this field to yield more effective, functional, and innovative dressings and how they lead to the next generation of biomaterials for skin therapy and regeneration.

Abstract
ZIF-8 (zeolitic imidazolate framework-8) is a potential drug delivery system because of its unique properties, which include a large surface area, a large pore capacity, a large loading capacity, and outstanding stability under physiological conditions. ZIF-8 nanoparticles may be readily functionalized with targeting ligands for the identification and absorption of particular cancer cells, enhancing the efficacy of chemotherapeutic medicines and reducing adverse effects. ZIF-8 is also pH-responsive, allowing medication release in the acidic milieu of cancer cells. Because of its tunable structure, it can be easily functionalized to design cancer-specific targeted medicines. The delivery of ZIF-8 to cancer cells can be facilitated by folic acid-conjugation. Hence, it can bind to overexpressed folate receptors on the surface of cancer cells, which holds the promise of reducing unwanted deliveries. As a result of its importance in cancer treatment, the folate-conjugated ZIF-8 was the major focus of this review.

Abstract
Nanomaterials (NMs) have garnered significant attention in recent decades due to their versatile applications in a wide range of fields. Thanks to their tiny size, enhanced surface modifications, impressive volume-to-surface area ratio, magnetic properties, and customized optical dispersion. NMs experienced an incredible upsurge in biomedical applications including diagnostics, therapeutics, and drug delivery. This minireview will focus on notable examples of NMs that tackle important issues, demonstrating various aspects such as their design, synthesis, morphology, classification, and use in cutting-edge applications. Furthermore, we have classified and outlined the distinctive characteristics of the advanced NMs as nanoscale particles and hybrid NMs. Meanwhile, we emphasize the incredible potential of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), a highly versatile group of NMs. These MOFs have gained recognition as promising candidates for a wide range of bio-applications, including bioimaging, biosensing, antiviral therapy, anticancer therapy, nanomedicines, theranostics, immunotherapy, photodynamic therapy, photothermal therapy, gene therapy, and drug delivery. Although advanced NMs have shown great potential in the biomedical field, their use in clinical applications is still limited by issues such as stability, cytotoxicity, biocompatibility, and health concerns. This review article provides a thorough analysis offering valuable insights for researchers investigating to explore new design, development, and expansion opportunities. Remarkably, we ponder the prospects of NMs and nanocomposites in conjunction with current technology.

Abstract
Polymer science exploited metal organic frameworks (MOFs) for various purposes, which is due to the fact that these materials are ideal platforms for identifying design features for advanced functional materials. The mechanism of polymerization using MOFs, is still largely unexplored and the detailed characterization of both materials in essential to understand the important interactions between the components. In this work modern advanced research methods were used to investigate the properties of MOF-containing hybrid polymeric microspheres. Hydrothermal conversion of CFA-derived iron particles was used to obtain MOF nanostructures, which were then introduced to the structure of hybrid polymer microspheres based on ethylene glycol dimethylacrylate (EGDMA) and triethoxyvinylsilane (TEVS). Chemical structures were confirmed by ATR-FTIR method. To provide information about the elemental composition of the tested materials and for the determination of chemical bonds present in the tested samples XPS method was applied. Morphology was studied using SEM microscopy, whereas porosity was investigated using ASAP technique. Swellability coefficients were determined using typical organic solvents and distilled water. Moreover, the ecological aspect concerning the use of fly ashes deserves to be emphasized.

Abstract
A drug delivery system (DDS) is a useful technology that efficiently delivers a target drug to a patient's specific diseased tissue with minimal side effects. DDS is a convergence of several areas of study, comprising pharmacy, medicine, biotechnology, and chemistry fields. In the traditional pharmacological concept, developing drugs for disease treatment has been the primary research field of pharmacology. The significance of DDS in delivering drugs with optimal formulation to target areas to increase bioavailability and minimize side effects has been recently highlighted. In addition, since the burst release found in various DDS platforms can reduce drug delivery efficiency due to unpredictable drug loss, many recent DDS studies have focused on developing carriers with a sustained release. Among various drug carriers, mesoporous silica DDS (MS-DDS) is applied to various drug administration routes, based on its sustained releases, nanosized porous structures, and excellent solubility for poorly soluble drugs. However, the synthesized MS-DDS has caused complications such as toxicity in the body, long-term accumulation, and poor excretion ability owing to acid treatment-centered manufacturing methods. Therefore, biosilica obtained from diatoms, as a natural MS-DDS, has recently emerged as an alternative to synthesized MS-DDS. This natural silica carrier is an optimal DDS platform because culturing diatoms is easy, and the silica can be separated from diatoms using a simple treatment. In this review, we discuss the manufacturing methods and applications to various disease models based on the advantages of biosilica.

Abstract
The biomacromolecule silk fibroin (SF) may be constructed to promote biomimetic nucleation and nanostructures of inorganic nanomaterials, offering it a promising candidate for use in various biomimetic applications. We combined SF-NPs and ZIF-8-NPs to fabricate new drug vehicles that effectively release the drug. SF nanoparticles (SF-NPs) were assembled into quercetin (QCT), a myocardial drug added to fabricate QSF-NPs. By acting as a template for the ZIF-8 nucleation onto the surface, the QSF-NPs fabricated core-shell-structured nanocomposites (named QSF@Z-NCs) with ZIF-8 as the core-shell and the QSF-NPs. The biocompatibility analysis using the MTT assay revealed that the developed QCT, SF-NPs, and QSF@Z-NCs are not harmful to cardiac myoblast (H9C2) cells. The in vivo model demonstrated that H9C2 cells encouraged cardiomyocyte fibre regeneration in myocardial infarction rats. We fabricated a brand-new technique using H9C2 cells and QSF@Z-NCs that might encourage the healing processes in myocardial ischemia cells. This study's results demonstrate that it successfully treats myocardial injury.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a unique class of multifunctional hybrid crystals that have been successfully utilized in diverse ranges of applications. However, since MOFs are prone to aqueous degradation, the development of stable luminescent MOF platforms in aqueous media is still a huge challenge. Here, a novel dual-ligand Eu3+/DUT-52-COOH composite is prepared based on the luminescent DUT-52 prototype structure via a dual-ligand strategy and a post-synthetic modification (PSM) method. The functionalized Eu3+/DUT-52-COOH material exhibits dual emission and good photothermal stability in aqueous media. Thus, Eu3+/DUT-52-COOH is developed as a ratiometric luminescent sensor to achieve highly selective and sensitive detection of Cu2+ and Cr2O72- in aqueous solutions and has a low detection limit of 3.43 μM and 25.7 nM, respectively. This work is one of the few cases of detecting Cu2+ and Cr2O72- in aqueous media based on a DUT-52, and the detection signals can be observed by the bare eye without using sophisticated analytical instruments. The possible sensing mechanism is discussed in detail. The results obtained in this project may provide broad prospects for developing smart sensing systems to accomplish highly efficient, easily operable and quantitative intelligent recognition of Cu2+ and Cr2O72-.

Abstract
Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) offer new ideas for the design of antibacterial materials because of their antibacterial properties, high porosity and specific surface area, low toxicity and good biocompatibility compared with other nanomaterials. Herein, a novel antimicrobial nanomaterial, MIL-101(Fe)@ZnO, has been synthesized by hydrothermal synthesis and characterized by FTIR, UV-vis, ICP-OES, XRD, SEM, EDS and BET to show that the zinc ions are doped into the crystal lattice of MIL-101(Fe) to form a Fe-Zn bimetallic structure. MIL-101(Fe)@ZnO was found to be effective against a wide range of antibacterial materials including Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Acinetobacter baumannii, Acinetobacter junii and Staphylococcus epidermidis. It has a significant antibacterial effect, weak cytotoxicity, high safety performance and good biocompatibility. Meanwhile, MIL-101(Fe)@ZnO was able to achieve antibacterial effects by causing cells to produce ROS, disrupting the cell membrane structure, and causing protein leakage and lipid preoxidation mechanisms. In conclusion, MIL-101(Fe)@ZnO is an easy-to-prepare antimicrobial nanomaterial with broad-spectrum bactericidal activity and low toxicity.

Abstract
Drug delivery systems (DDS) are continuously being explored since humans are facing more numerous complicated diseases than ever before. These systems can preserve the drug's functionality and improve its efficacy until the drug is delivered to a specific site within the body. One of the least used materials for this purpose are metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). MOFs possess many properties, including their high surface area and the possibility for the addition of functional surface moieties, that make them ideal drug delivery vehicles. Such properties can be further improved by combining different materials (such as metals or ligands) and utilizing various synthesis techniques. In this work, the microfluidic technique is used to synthesize Zeolitic Imidazole Framework-67 (ZIF-67) containing cobalt ions as well as its bimetallic variant with cobalt and zinc as ZnZIF-67 to be subsequently loaded with diclofenac sodium and incorporated into sodium alginate beads for sustained drug delivery. This study shows the utilization of a microfluidic approach to synthesize MOF variants. Furthermore, these MOFs were incorporated into a biopolymer (sodium alginate) to produce a reliable DDS which can perform sustained drug releases for up to 6 days (for 90% of the full amount released), whereas MOFs without the biopolymer showed sudden release within the first day.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have proven to be very effective carriers for drug delivery in various biological applications. In recent years, the development of hybrid nanostructures has made significant progress, including developing an innovative MOF-loaded nanocomposite with a highly porous structure and low toxicity that can be used to fabricate core-shell nanocomposites by combining complementary materials. This review study discusses using MOF materials in cancer treatment, imaging, and antibacterial effects, focusing on oral cancer cells. For patients with oral cancer, we offer a regular program for accurately designing and producing various anticancer and antibacterial agents to achieve maximum effectiveness and the lowest side effects. Also, we want to ensure that the anticancer agent works optimally and has as few side effects as possible before it is tested in vitro and in vivo. It is also essential that new anticancer drugs for cancer treatment are tested for efficacy and safety before they go into further research.

Abstract
Nanometal-organic frameworks (NMOFs) are porous network structures composed of metal ions or metal clusters through self-assembly. NMOFs have been considered as a promising nano-drug delivery system due to their unique properties such as pore and flexible structures, large specific surface areas, surface modifiability, non-toxic and degradable properties. However, NMOFs face a series complex environment during in vivo delivery. Therefore, surface functionalization of NMOFs is vital to ensure that the structure of NMOFs remain stable during delivery, and can overcome physiological barriers to deliver drugs more accurately to specific sites, and achieve controllable release. In this review, the first part summarizes the physiological barriers that NMOFs faced during drug delivery after intravenous injection and oral administration. The second part summarizes the current main ways to load drugs into NMOFs, mainly including pore adsorption, surface attachment, formation of covalent/coordination bonds between drug molecules and NMOFs, and in situ encapsulation. The third part is the main review part of this paper, which summarizes the surface modification methods of NMOFs used in recent years to overcome the physiological barriers and achieve effective drug delivery and disease therapy, which are mainly divided into physical modifications and chemical modifications. Finally, the full text is summarized and prospected, with the hope to provide ideas for the future development of NMOFs as drug delivery.

Abstract
Composites of polyaniline (PANI) and Zr-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), UiO-66 and UiO-66-NH2, were synthesized by the oxidative polymerization of aniline in the presence of MOF templates with the MOF content in the resulting materials (78.2 and 86.7 wt %, respectively) close to the theoretical value (91.5 wt %). Scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy showed that the morphology of the composites was set by the morphology of the MOFs, whose structure was mostly preserved after the synthesis, based on the X-ray diffraction data. Vibrational and NMR spectroscopies pointed out that MOFs participate in the protonation of PANI and conducting polymer chains were grafted to amino groups of UiO-66-NH2. Unlike PANI-UiO-66, cyclic voltammograms of PANI-UiO-66-NH2 showed a well-resolved redox peak at around ≈0 V, pointing at the pseudocapacitive behavior. The gravimetric capacitance of PANI-UiO-66-NH2, normalized per mass of the active material, was also found to be higher compared to that of pristine PANI (79.8 and 50.5 F g-1, respectively, at 5 mV s-1). The introduction of MOFs into the composites with PANI significantly improved the cycling stability of the materials over 1000 cycles compared to the pristine conducting polymer, with the residual gravimetric capacitance being ≥100 and 77%, respectively. Thus, the electrochemical performance of the prepared PANI-MOF composites makes them attractive materials for application in energy storage.

Abstract
Lanthanide metal-organic frameworks (lanthanide MOFs) may be utilized for a variety of environmental and human health applications due to their luminescent properties and high thermal and water stability. However, the cytotoxic and epigenetic effects produced in human cells are not known. Therefore, we evaluated the cytotoxic effects, internalization, and changes in the mRNA abundance of DNA methylation and demethylation enzymes by exposing human fibroblast cells to a metal-organic framework [H2NMe2]3 [Tb(III)(2,6 pyridinedicarboxylate)3] (Tb-MOF). For this purpose, the cells were exposed to six concentrations (0.05 to 1.6 mg/mL) of Tb-MOF for 48 h. Field emission electron microscopy coupled to linear energy dispersive spectroscopy (FESEM‒EDS) and confocal microscopy analysis were performed. The cytotoxicity was determined with crystal violet and MTT assays. The results demonstrated the internalization of Tb-MOF at concentrations as low as 0.05 mg/mL, as well as concentration-dependent toxicity. Additionally, we detected significant changes in the gene expression levels of DNA methyltransferases and demethylases due to the presence of Tb-MOF, suggesting that Tb-MOF could generate epigenetic changes even at low concentrations. The results of our study may establish a foundation for future research attempting to develop and apply secure nanomaterials (e.g., MOFs) to minimize damage to the environment and human health.

Abstract
Conventional cancer therapies, such as radiotherapy and chemotherapy, can have long-term side effects. Phototherapy has significant potential as a non-invasive alternative treatment with excellent selectivity. Nevertheless, its applicability is restricted by the availability of effective photosensitizers and photothermal agents, and its low efficacy when it comes to avoiding metastasis and tumor recurrence. Immunotherapy can promote systemic antitumoral immune responses, acting against metastasis and recurrence; however, it lacks the selectivity displayed by phototherapy, sometimes leading to adverse immune events. The use of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) in the biomedical field has grown significantly in recent years. Due to their distinct properties, including their porous structure, large surface area, and inherent photo-responsive properties, MOFs can be particularly useful in the fields of cancer phototherapy and immunotherapy. MOF nanoplatforms have successfully demonstrated their ability to address several drawbacks associated with cancer phototherapy and immunotherapy, enabling an effective and low-side-effect combinatorial synergistical treatment for cancer. In the coming years, new advancements in MOFs, particularly regarding the development of highly stable multi-function MOF nanocomposites, may revolutionize the field of oncology.

Abstract
Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as a promising biomedical material due to its unique features such as high surface area, pore volume, variable pore size, flexible functional groups, and excellent efficiency for drug loading. In this review, we explored the use of novel and smart metal organic frameworks as drug delivery vehicles to discover a safer and more controlled mode of drug release aiming to minimize their side effects. Here, we systematically discussed the background of MOFs following a thorough review on structural and physical properties of MOFs, their synthesis techniques, and the important characteristics to establish a strong foundation for future research. Furthermore, the current status on the potential applications of MOF-based stimuli-responsive drug delivery systems, including pH-, ion-, temperature-, light-, and multiple responsive systems for the delivery of anticancer drugs has also been presented. Lastly, we discuss the prospects and challenges in implementation of MOF-based materials in the drug delivery. Therefore, this review will help researchers working in the relevant fields to enhance their understanding of MOFs for encapsulation of various drugs as well as their stimuli responsive mechanism.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are extremely versatile materials, which serve to create platforms with exceptional porosity and specific reactivities. The production of MOFs at the nanoscale (NMOFs) offers the possibility of creating innovative materials for bioapplications as long as they maintain the properties of their larger counterparts. Due to their inherent chemical versatility, synthetic methods to produce them at the nanoscale can be combined with inorganic nanoparticles (NPs) to create nanocomposites (NCs) with one-of-a-kind features. These systems can be remotely controlled and can catalyze abiotic reactions in living cells, which have the potential to stimulate further research on these nanocomposites as tools for advanced therapies.

Abstract
The synthesis of biocompatible nanoporous zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) was performed in the presence of gum arabic (GA), curcumin (CCM), and folic acid (FA) as a template for the biomineralization process, a natural anticancer component, and a targeting agent, respectively. The synthesis of ZIF-8-GA-CCM-FA was completed in a single step at room temperature in aqueous media with a minimum amount of ethanol at a linker/metal molar ratio of 10. FA was dissolved by the alkaline medium produced by a 2-methyl imidazolium (HmIm) linker without using any toxic organic solvent or additional conjugation agents. The FA-modified carrier can target the folate receptors on Hela cells. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report about the one-pot encapsulation of CCM and FA in a biocompatible ZIF-8-GA framework in a green solvent. This method enables high CCM loading in the ZIF-8-GA framework structure (ca. 90%) at a short time of 15 min. The effect of CCM concentration was investigated on the size, morphology, and crystallinity of the synthesized structures. The products were characterized with field emission scanning electron microscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area analysis, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared, and UV-vis spectroscopy techniques. The release rate of CCM from ZIF-8-GA-CCM-FA was studied at different pH values. In vitro drug release of CCM was higher in the acidic medium (pH 5.5, 6.5) compared to physiological pH (7.4). The cytotoxicity of ZIF-8-GA, ZIF-8-GA-CCM, and ZIF-8-GA-CCM-FA structures was evaluated by the standard 3-(4,5 dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay on the three cell lines (fibroblast (normal cell), Hela (FR-positive), and A549 (FR-negative). These results suggested that the ZIF-8-GA-CCM-FA framework can have a promising effect on the targeted treatment of cancer cells.

Abstract
Due to their flexible composition, large surface areas, versatile surface properties, and degradability, nanoscale metal organic frameworks (nano MOFs) are drawing significant attention in nanomedicine. In particular, iron trimesate MIL-100 (Fe) is studied extensively in the drug delivery field. Nanosized MIL-100 (Fe) are obtained mostly by microwave-assisted synthesis. Simpler, room-temperature (RT) synthesis methods attract growing interest and have scale-up potential. However, the preparation of RT MIL100 is still very challenging because of the high tendency of the nanoparticles to aggregate during their synthesis, purification and storage. To address this issue, we prepared RT MIL100 using acetic acid as a modulator and used non-toxic cyclodextrin-based coatings to ensure stability upon storage. Hydrodynamic diameters less than 100 nm were obtained after RT synthesis, however, ultrasonication was needed to disaggregate the nanoparticles after their purification by centrifugation. The model drug adenosine monophosphate (AMP) was successfully encapsulated in RT MIL100 obtained using acetic acid as a modulator. The coated RT MIL100 has CD-exhibited degradability, good colloidal stability, low cytotoxicity, as well as high drug payload efficiency. Further studies will focus on applications in the field of cancer therapy.

Abstract
The present work reports the synthesis of new N4-donor compounds carrying p-xylyl spacers in their structure. Different Schiff base aliphatic N-donors were obtained synthetically and subsequently evaluated for their ability to interact with two models of nucleic acids: calf-thymus DNA (CT-DNA) and the RNA from yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae (herein simply indicated as RNA). In more detail, by condensing p-xylylenediamine and a series of aldehydes, we obtained the following Schiff base ligands: 2-thiazolecarboxaldehyde (L1), pyridine-2-carboxaldehyde (L2), 5-methylisoxazole-3-carboxaldehyde (L3), 1-methyl-2-imidazolecarboxaldehyde (L4), and quinoline-2-carboxaldehyde (L5). The structural characterisation of the ligands L1-L5 (X-ray, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, elemental analysis) and of the coordination polymers {[CuL1]PF6}n (herein referred to as Polymer1) and {[AgL1]BF4}n, (herein referred to as Polymer2, X-ray, 1H NMR, ESI-MS) is herein described in detail. The single crystal X-ray structures of complexes Polymer1 and Polymer2 were also investigated, leading to the description of one-dimensional coordination polymers. The spectroscopic and in silico evaluation of the most promising compounds as DNA and RNA binders, as well as the study of the influence of the 1D supramolecular polymers Polymer1 and Polymer2 on the proliferation of Escherichia coli bacteria, were performed in view of their nucleic acid-modulating and antimicrobial applications. Spectroscopic measurements (UV-Vis) combined with molecular docking calculations suggest that the thiazolecarboxaldehyde derivative L1 is able to bind CT-DNA with a mechanism different from intercalation involving the thiazole ring in the molecular recognition and shows a binding affinity with DNA higher than RNA. Finally, Polymer2 was shown to slow down the proliferation of bacteria much more effectively than the free Ag(I) salt.

Abstract
Linezolid (LNZ) is a new-generation synthetic molecule for the antibacterial treatment of severe infections, particularly in infective cases where the bacterial resistance to first-choice drugs is caused by Gram-positive pathogens. In this context, since 2009, some strains resistant to LNZ in patients with long-term treatments have been reported. Therefore, there is a need to use not only new drug molecules with antibacterial activities in the dosage form but also a different approach to pharmacotherapeutic strategies for skin infections, which lead to a reduction in the concentration of biocides. This work explores LNZ hosted at two isostructural MOFs, MOF-74(Zn) and MOF-74(Cu), as promising antimicrobial systems for gradual biocide release within 6 h. These systems reach a lower minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) in comparison to free LNZ. Even a decreased MIC value is also observed, which is an encouraging result regarding the efficiency of the systems to control concentration-dependent antimicrobial resistance.

Abstract
Medication in arthritis therapies is complex because the inflammatory progression of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA) is intertwined and influenced by one another. To address this problem, drug delivery systems (DDS) are composed of four independent exogenous triggers and four dependent endogenous stimuli that are controlled on program and induced on demand, respectively. However, the relationships between the mechanisms of endogenous stimuli and exogenous triggers with pathological alterations remain unclear, which results in a major obstacle in terms of clinical translation. Thus, the rationale for designing a guidance system for these mechanisms via their key irritant biosensors is in high demand. Many approaches have been applied, although successful clinical translations are still rare. Through this review, the status quo in historical development is highlighted in order to discuss the unsolved clinical difficulties such as infiltration, efficacy, drug clearance, and target localisation. Herein, we summarise and discuss the rational compositions of exogenous triggers and endogenous stimuli for programmable therapy. This advanced active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) implanted dose allows for several releases by remote controls for endogenous stimuli during lesion infections. This solves the multiple implantation and local toxic accumulation problems by using these flexible desired releases at the specified sites for arthritis therapies.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) show great potential in biomedicine, but the synthesis of fluorescent ones with a highly conjugated structure in mild conditions remains a challenge. Herein, we reported a facile method to synthesize a nanosized, highly conjugated, and N-enriched COF material with bright fluorescence and further integrated it as a novel nanoplatform for efficient cancer starvation/gas therapy. High surface area and a porous structure endowed COFs with large loading capacity for both glucose oxidase and l-arginine, while conjugated monomer and N-doping guaranteed bright fluorescence and relatively strong interactions between loaded cargos. Well-designed size allowed easy cell uptake of drug-loaded COFs, which finally resulted in a highly efficient starvation therapy by consuming large amounts of glucose in cancer cells. H2O2, the byproduct during glucose consumption, was made full use of oxidizing l-arginine to generate toxic NO. This constructed combined starvation and gas therapy and exhibited emerging antimigration performance. Both in vitro and in vivo experiments confirmed an excellent cancer therapeutic effect than a single therapy, and the novel therapeutic platform showed good biocompatibility. Detailed mechanism study demonstrated that cell apoptosis and lysosomal damage contributed most to the synergistic treatment. Our study developed a new strategy to synthesize highly conjugated COFs with fluorescence and reported the potential applications in cancer therapy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Nanomaterials have been used for bio-applications since the late 20st century. In an attempt to tailor and optimize their properties, and by extension their efficiency, composites have attracted considerable attention. In this regard, recent studies on plasmonic nanoparticles and metal-organic framework (NP@MOF) composites suggested these materials show great promise in this field. AREAS COVERED This review focused on the more recent scientific advances in the synthetic strategies to optimize plasmonic MOF nanocomposites currently available, as well as their bio-application, particularly as biosensors and therapy. EXPERT OPINION Plasmonic MOF nanocomposites have shown great potential as they combine the properties of both materials with proven efficiency in bio-application. On the one hand, nanoMOFs have proven their potential particularly as drug nanocarriers, owing to their exceptional porosity and tunability. On the other hand, plasmonic nanoparticles have been an asset for imaging and phototherapy. Different strategies have been reported to develop these nanocomposites, mainly including core-shell, encapsulation, and in situ reduction. In addition, advanced composite structures should be considered, such as mixed metal nanoparticles, hollow structures or the combination of several approaches. Specifically, plasmonic MOF nanocomposites prove to be attractive stimuli responsive drug delivery systems, phototherapeutic agents as well as highly sensitive biosensors.

Abstract
The design and preparation of multifunctional drug carriers for combined photothermal–chemotherapy of cancer have attracted extensive attention over the past few decades. However, the development of simple-structured stimuli-responsive theranostic agents as both photothermal agents and chemotherapeutic agents remains a big challenge. Herein, a novel double-shelled nanocarrier composed of hollow Ag2S (HAg2S) nanospheres and a mesoporous polydopamine (MPDA) exterior shell was fabricated through a facile process. Notably, HAg2S possesses both fluorescence and photothermal properties. MPDA acts as a drug carrier and photothermal agent. Meanwhile, the cavity structure between HAg2S and MPDA provides more space for drug loading. The nanocarrier presents a high drug loading rate of 23.4%. It exhibits an apparent pH-responsive DOX release property due to the acidic sensitivity of PDA. In addition, the release of DOX is promoted under NIR irradiation, which is attributed to the heating action generated by the photothermal effect of HAg2S and MPDA. The cytotoxicity test shows that the nanocarriers possess good biocompatibility. Compared with single photothermal therapy or chemotherapy, the combined treatment represents a synergistic effect with higher therapeutic efficacy. In addition, the nanocarriers exhibit excellent fluorescence imaging capability and can target HepG2 cells. These simple-structured smart nanocarriers have a great potential for fluorescence-mediated combination cancer therapy.
