Zhang Y, Wang J, Liu F, Wang L, Gao G. Preparation of cylindrical Chitosan/β-Cyclodextrin/MIL-68(Al) foam column for solid-phase extraction of sulfonamides in water, urine, and milk. J Chromatogr A 2024; 1730:465130. [PMID: 38955130 DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma.2024.465130] [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: 05/06/2024] [Revised: 06/25/2024] [Accepted: 06/28/2024] [Indexed: 07/04/2024]
Abstract
This study describes the preparation of a cylindrical polymer foam column termed Chitosan/β-Cyclodextrin/MIL-68(Al) (CS/β-CD/MIL-68(Al)). An ice template-freeze drying technique was employed to prepare the CS/β-CD/MIL-68(Al) foam column by embedding MIL-68(Al) in a polymer matrix comprising cross-linked chitosan (CS) and β-cyclodextrin (β-CD). The cylindrical CS/β-CD/MIL-68(Al) foam was subsequently inserted into a syringe to develop a solid phase extraction (SPE) device. Without the requirement for an external force, the sample solution passed easily through the SPE column thanks to the porous structure of the CS/β-CD/MIL-68(Al) foam column. Moreover, the CS/β-CD/MIL-68(Al) foam column was thought to be a superior absorbent for SPE since it included the adsorptive benefits of CS, β-CD, and MIL-68(Al). The SPE was utilized in conjunction with high-performance liquid chromatography to analyze six sulfonamides found in milk, urine, and water. With matrix effects ranging from 80.49 % to 104.9 % with RSD values of 0.4-14.0 %, the method showed high recoveries ranging from 80.6 to 107.4 % for water samples, 93.4-105.2 % for urine, and 87.4-100.9 % for milk. It also demonstrated good linearity in the range of 10-258 ng·mL-1 with the limits of detection ranging from 1.88 to 2.58 ng·mL-1. The cylindrical CS/β-CD/MIL-68(Al) foam column prepared in this work offered several advantages, including its simple fabrication, excellent water stability, absence of pollutants, biodegradability, and reusability. It is particularly well-suited for SPE. Furthermore, the developed SPE method, employing CS/β-CD/MIL-68(Al) foam column, is straightforward and precise, and its benefits, including affordability, ease of preparation, lack of specialized equipment, and solvent economy, underline its broad applicability for the pretreatment of aqueous samples.

Abstract
Disulfiram (DSF) is a second-line drug for the clinical treatment of alcoholism and has long been proven to be safe for use in clinical practice. In recent years, researchers have discovered the cancer-killing activity of DSF, which is highly dependent on the presence of metal ions, particularly copper ions. Additionally, free DSF is highly unstable and easily degraded within few minutes in blood circulation. Therefore, an ideal DSF formulation should facilitate the co-delivery of metal ions and safeguard the DSF throughout its biological journey before reaching the targeted site. Extensive research have proved that nanotechnology based formulations can effectively realize this goal by strategic encapsulation therapeutic agents within nanoparticle. To be more specific, this is accomplished through precise delivery, coordinated release of metal ions at the tumor site, thereby amplifying its cytotoxic potential. Beyond traditional co-loading techniques, innovative approaches such as DSF-metal complex and metal nanomaterials, have also demonstrated promising results at the animal model stage. This review aims to elucidate the anticancer mechanism associated with DSF and its reliance on metal ions, as well as to provide a comprehensive overview of recent advances in the arena of nanomedicine based co-delivery strategies for DSF and metal ion in the context of cancer therapy.

A magnetic graphene oxide and UiO-66 based homogeneous dual recognition electrochemical aptasensor for accurate and sensitive detection of aflatoxin B1. Talanta 2024; 273:125915.

Abstract
Aflatoxin (AFs) contamination is one of the serious food safety issues. Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is the most common and toxic aflatoxin, which has been classified as a class 1 carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC). It is extremely destructive to liver tissue. Developing a convenient and sensitive detection technique is essential. In this paper, we developed a homogeneous dual recognition strategy based electrochemical aptasensor for accurate and sensitive detection of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) based on the magnetic graphene oxide (MGO) and UiO-66. The MGO was synthesized for the recognition and magnetic separation of AFB1 from complex samples. UiO-66/ferrocenecarboxylic acid (Fc)/aptamer composites were constructed as both recognition and signal probes. The probes would specifically capture AFB1 enriched by MGO, which enables dual recognition in homogeneous solution, thus further improving the accuracy of AFB1 detection. The electrochemical aptasensor for AFB1 had a linear range from 0.005 to 500 ng mL-1. Additionally, the limit of detection was 1 pg mL-1. It shows a favorable potential for both sensitive and accurate detection of AFB1 in real samples.

Abstract
Green nanotechnology is one of the most expanding fields that provides numerous novel nanoparticle drug formulations with enhanced bioactivity performance. This study aims to synthesize mesoporous metal organic framework (ZIF-8) phytofabricated with the herb Allium sativum (As) as an indicator system for its antibacterial and antifungal impact. The successful synthesis of ZIF-8 as nanocomposite was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and scanning coupled with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy (SEM-EDX and TEM) that showed the textural retainment of ZIF-8 on composite formation with A. sativum. The nanocomposite, A. sativum extract, and ZIF-8 were subjected to antimicrobial assays against Shigella flexneri, Candida albicans, and Candida parapsilosis. The comparative results indicated the potential action of nanocomposite against the bacteria and both the Candida sps; however, the antifungal action against the Candida sps was more effective than the bacterium S. flexneri. The findings suggest that plants, being an important component of ecosystems, could be further explored for the novel drug discovery using green nanotechnology to enhance their impact on the drug-resistant pathogens.

Abstract
This work aimed to prepare a new system for daunorubicin (DNR) delivery to improve therapeutic efficiency and decrease unwanted side effects. Typically, at first, a carboxylic acid functional group containing metal-organic framework (UiO-66-COOH) was synthesized in a simple way. Then, a third generation of citric acid dendrimer (CAD G3) was grown on it (UiO-66-COOH-CAD G3). Finally, the system was functionalized with pre-modified hyaluronic acid (UiO-66-COOH-CAD-HA). SEM analysis displayed that the synthesized particles have a spherical shape with an average particle size ranging from 260 to 280 nm. An increase in hydrodynamic diameter from 223 nm for UiO-66-COOH to 481 nm for UiO-66-COOH-CAD-HA is a sign of success in the performed reactions. Also, the average pore size was calculated at about 4.04 nm. The DNR loading efficiency of UiO-66-COOH-CAD-HA was evaluated at ∼74 % (DNR@UiO-66-COOH-CAD-HA). It was observed that the drug release rate at a lower pH is more than higher pH. The maximum hemolysis of <3 % means that the UiO-66-COOH-CAD-HA is hemocompatible. The use of DNR-loaded UiO-66-COOH-CAD-HA led to cell-killing of 77.9 % for MDA-MB 231. These results specified the great potential of UiO-66-COOH-CAD-HA for tumor drug delivery, so it could be proposed as a new carrier for anticancer agents to minimize adverse effects and improve therapeutic efficacy.

Abstract
In the last two decades, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with highly tunable structure and porosity, have emerged as drug nanocarriers in the biomedical field. In particular, nanoscaled MOFs (nanoMOFs) have been widely investigated because of their potential biocompatibility, high drug loadings, and progressive release. To enhance their properties, MOFs have been combined with magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) to form magnetic nanocomposites (MNP@MOF) with additional functionalities. Due to the magnetic properties of the MNPs, their presence in the nanosystems enables potential combinatorial magnetic targeted therapy and diagnosis. In this Review, we analyze the four main synthetic strategies currently employed for the fabrication of MNP@MOF nanocomposites, namely, mixing, in situ formation of MNPs in presynthesized MOF, in situ formation of MOFs in the presence of MNPs, and layer-by-layer methods. Additionally, we discuss the current progress in bioapplications, focusing on drug delivery systems (DDSs), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), magnetic hyperthermia (MHT), and theragnostic systems. Overall, we provide a comprehensive overview of the recent advances in the development and bioapplications of MNP@MOF nanocomposites, highlighting their potential for future biomedical applications with a critical analysis of the challenges and limitations of these nanocomposites in terms of their synthesis, characterization, biocompatibility, and applicability.

Abstract
The use of drug delivery systems in targeting and achieving the targeting of drugs in treating diseases, especially cancer, has attracted the attention of researchers. Letrozole is one of the drugs for the treatment of breast cancer. In this study, the organic-metallic pharmaceutical porous nanostructure based on zirconium UiO-66 loaded letrozole was synthesized. Its cytotoxicity and effect on apoptosis and migration against breast cancer cell line were investigated. In this experimental study, the UiO-66 nanoparticle-loaded letrozole was synthesized using zirconium chloride (ZrCl4), dimethylformamide (DMF), and HCl. Its characteristics were determined by scanning electron microscopy, and its average size was determined by the DLS method. Also, the rate of letrozole drug release from the nanoparticle was investigated in 24, 48, and 72 h. In addition, its cytotoxicity effects were investigated using the MTT colorimetric method at concentrations of 3.125-100 µg/ml against the breast cancer cell line (MCF-7) in the periods of 48 and 72 h. Also, the expression level of apoptotic genes Bax and Bcl2 was investigated by the Real-Time PCR method. Also, the amount of cell migration was done by the migration assay method. The results showed that UiO-66 bound to letrozole had a spherical morphology and an average size of 9.2 ± 160.1. Also, the letrozole drug was loaded by 62.21 ± 1.80% in UiO-66 nanoparticles and had a slower release pattern than free letrozole in the drug release test, so within 72 h, 99.99% of free letrozole was released in If in UiO-66 containing letrozole, 57.55% of the drug has been released. Also, the cytotoxicity results showed that UiO-66 bound to letrozole has more significant cytotoxic effects than free letrozole (p < 0.05). Also, the results of Bax and Bcl2 gene expression showed that the treatment of MCF-7 cells with UiO-66 nanoparticles attached to letrozole increased the expression of Bax and Bcl2 genes compared to the reference gene Beta-actin in MCF-7 cell line, respectively. (p < 0.05) increased by 3.71 ± 0.42 and (p < 0.01) decreased by 0.636 ± 0.034 (p < 0.05). Cell migration results showed that the concentration of 50 µg/ml of UiO-66 bound to letrozole decreased the migration of MCF-7 cells. Generally, the results of this study showed that UiO-66 loaded letrozole can be used as a suitable drug carrier for cellular purposes, as it has increased the effects of cytotoxicity and the rate of apoptosis in breast cancer cell line (MCF-7), so it can be used with more studies used nanocarriers as a drug delivery system.

Abstract
To accurately detect tumor marker carbohydrate antigen 72-4 (CA72-4) of serum samples is of great significance for the early diagnosis of malignant tumors. In the present study, MnO2/hollow nanobox metal-organic framework (HNM)-AuPtPd nanocomposites were prepared via multi-step synthesis and superposition method and a series of characterizations were carried out. A highly sensitive immunosensor Ab/MnO2/HNM-AuPtPd/GCE based on the composite nanomaterial was further prepared and used to detect the tumor marker CA72-4. The constructed immunosensor achieved signal amplification by increasing the electrocatalytic activity to H2O2 by means of the synergistic effect of MnO2 ultra-thin nanosheets (MnO2 UNs) and HNM-AuPtPd. At the same time, the electrochemical properties of the immunosensor were analyzed using cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance, amperometry (with the test voltage of -0.4 V), and differential pulse voltammetry. The experimental results showed that the MnO2/HNM-AuPtPd nanocomposites were successfully prepared, and the immunosensor Ab/MnO2/HNM-AuPtPd/GCE demonstrated an excellent electrochemical performance. The electrochemical immunosensor had the highest detection sensitivity under the optimal experimental conditions, such as incubation pH of 7.0, incubation time of 60 min, with the addition of 15 μL of H2O2, and in the concentration range 0.001-500 U/mL. It had a low detection limit of 1.78×10-5 U/mL (S/N = 3). Moreover, the serum sample recovery were in the range from 99.38 to 100.52%. This study provides a new method and experimental basis for the detection of tumor markers in clinical practice.

Abstract
Seasonal influenza still greatly threatens public health worldwide, leading to significant morbidity and mortality. Antiviral medications for influenza treatment are limited and accompanied by increased drug resistance. In severe influenza virus infection, hyperinflammation and hypoxia may be the significant threats associated with mortality, so the development of effective therapeutic methods to alleviate excessive inflammation while reducing viral damage is highly pursued. Here, a multifunctional MOF-based nanohybrid of Cu─TCPP@Mn3 O4 as a novel drug against influenza A virus infection (MOF = metal-organic framework; TCPP = tetrakis (4-carboxyphenyl) porphyrin) is designed. Cu─TCPP@Mn3 O4 exhibits potent inhibitory capability against influenza A virus infection in vitro and in vivo. The mechanism study reveals that Cu─TCPP@Mn3 O4 inhibits the virus entry by binding to the HA2 subunit of influenza A virus hemagglutinin. In addition, the nanoparticles of Mn3 O4 in Cu─TCPP@Mn3 O4 can scavenge intracellular ROS with O2 generation to downregulate inflammatory factors and effectively inhibit cytokines production. By reconstructing the antioxidant microenvironment, Cu─TCPP@Mn3 O4 features as a promising nanomedicine with anti-inflammatory and anti-viral synergistic effects.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are widely used in the biomedical industry. In this study, we developed a new method for obtaining a metal-organic structure of strontium and terephthalic acid, Sr(BDC), and an alternative activation method for removing DMF from the pores. Sr(BDC) MOFs were successfully prepared and characterized by XRD, FTIR, TGA, and SEM. The importance of the activation steps was confirmed by TGA, which showed that the Sr(BDC)(DMF) sample can contain up to a quarter of the solvent (DMF) before activation. In our study, IR spectroscopy confirmed the possibility of removing DMF by ethanol treatment from the Sr-BDC crystals. A comparative analysis of the effect of the activation method on the specific surface and pore size of Sr-BDC and its sorption properties using the model drug doxorubicin showed that due to the undeveloped surface of the Sr-(BDC)(DMF) sample, it is not possible to obtain an adsorption isotherm and determine the pore size distribution, thus showing the importance of the activation step. Cytotoxicity and apoptosis assays were carried out to study the biological activity of MOFs, and we observed relatively low toxicity in the tested concentration range after 48 h, with over 92% cell survival for Sr(BDC)(DMF) and Sr(BDC)(260 °C), with a decrease only in the highest concentration (800 mg L-1). Similar results were observed in our apoptosis assays, as they revealed low apoptotic population generation of 2.52%, 3.23%, and 2.77% for Sr(BDC)(DMF), Sr(BDC) and Sr(BDC)(260 °C), respectively. Overall, the findings indicate that ethanol-activated Sr(BDC) shows potential as a safe and effective material for drug delivery.

Abstract
In the current project, magnetic Bio-MOF-13 was used as an efficient carrier for the targeted delivery and controlled release of doxorubicin (DOX) to MDA-MB-231 cells. Magnetic Bio-MOF-13 was prepared by two strategies and compared to determine the optimal state of the structure. In the first path, Bio-MOF-13 was grown in situ on the surface of Fe3O4 nanoparticles (core/shell structure), while in the second method, the two presynthesized materials were mixed together (surface composite). Core/shell structure, among prepared nanocomposites, was chosen for biological evaluation due to its favorable structural features like a high accessible surface area and pore volume. Also, it is highly advantageous for drug release due to its ability to selectively release DOX in the acidic pH of breast cancer cells, while preventing any premature release in the neutral pH of the blood. Drug release from the carrier structure is precisely controlled not only by pH but also by an external magnetic field, guaranteeing accurate drug delivery at the intended location. Confocal microscopy and flow cytometry assay clearly confirms the increase in drug concentration in the MDA-MB-231 cell line after external magnet applying. This point, along with the low toxicity of the carrier components, makes it a suitable candidate for injectable medicine. According to MTT results, the percentage of viable MDA-MB-231 cells after treatment with 10 μL of DOX@Fe3O4/Bio-MOF-13 core/shell composite in different concentrations, in the presence and absence of magnetic field is 0.87 ± 0.25 and 2.07 ± 0.15, respectively. As a result, the DOX@Fe3O4/Bio-MOF-13 core/shell composite was performed and approved for targeted drug delivery and magnetic field-assisted controlled release of DOX to the MDA-MB-231 cell line.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have a high specific surface area, adjustable pores and can be used to obtain functional porous materials with diverse and well-ordered structures through coordination and self-assembly, which has intrigued wide interest in a broad range of disciplines.

Core-shell inorganic NP@MOF nanostructures for targeted drug delivery and multimodal imaging-guided combination tumor treatment. Adv Colloid Interface Sci 2023; 321:103007. [PMID: 37812992 DOI: 10.1016/j.cis.2023.103007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/14/2022] [Revised: 08/16/2023] [Accepted: 09/23/2023] [Indexed: 10/11/2023]
Abstract
It is well known that metal-organic framework (MOF) nanostructures have unique characteristics such as high porosity, large surface areas and adjustable functionalities, so they are ideal candidates for developing drug delivery systems (DDSs) as well as theranostic platforms in cancer treatment. Despite the large number of MOF nanostructures that have been discovered, conventional MOF-derived nanosystems only have a single biofunctional MOF source with poor colloidal stability. Accordingly, developing core-shell MOF nanostructures with good colloidal stability is a useful method for generating efficient drug delivery, multimodal imaging and synergistic therapeutic systems. The preparation of core-shell MOF nanostructures has been done with a variety of materials, but inorganic nanoparticles (NPs) are highly effective for drug delivery and imaging-guided tumor treatment. Herein, we aimed to overview the synthesis of core-shell inorganic NP@MOF nanostructures followed by the application of core-shell MOFs derived from magnetic, quantum dots (QDs), gold (Au), and gadolinium (Gd) NPs in drug delivery and imaging-guided tumor treatment. Afterward, we surveyed different factors affecting prolonged drug delivery and cancer therapy, cellular uptake, biocompatibility, biodegradability, and enhanced permeation and retention (EPR) effect of core-shell MOFs. Last but not least, we discussed the challenges and the prospects of the field. We envision this article may hold great promise in providing valuable insights regarding the application of hybrid nanostructures as promising and potential candidates for multimodal imaging-guided combination cancer therapy.

Abstract
Two series of newly synthesized sustainable block copolymers based on poly(butylene succinate) (PBSu) and polylactide (PLA) were studied. The copolymers were synthesized by a ring-opening polymerization of PLA in the presence of two initial PBSu of low molar mass. We focused on the effects of the PBSu/PLA ratio (1/99 up to 15/85), chain length and initial PBSu length on the final thermal transitions in the copolymers with an emphasis on molecular mobility/dynamics and subsequently on crystallization. Both aspects are considered relevant to the final materials performance, as well as facilitation of polymer renewability. Calorimetry and dielectric spectroscopy were the main investigation tools. In the amorphous state (i.e., in which the direct effects of copolymer structure are assessable), the segmental mobility of neat PLA was significantly faster in the copolymers. Segmental mobility was monitored via the decrease in the calorimetric and dielectric (α relaxation) glass-transition temperatures, Tg and Tg,diel, respectively. The effect was systematic with an increase in the PBSu/PLA ratio, and was rationalized through the plasticizing role of PBSu (low-Tg component) and facilitated also by the simultaneous lowering of the chain length in the copolymers. Dielectric spectroscopy allowed evaluation of the dynamical fragility (cooperativity) of chains, which was strongly suppressed in the copolymers. This finding suggested an increase in free volume or a gradual increase of interchain distances. This phenomenon could favor the natural enzymatic degradation of the systems (compostability), which is limited in neat PLA. We recorded enhancement of nucleation and the crystalline fraction in the copolymers that was likely connected with faster chain diffusion. Further lowering of the Tg with the implementation of crystallization was noted (which seemed a controversial effect) but which indicated crystallization-induced phase separation.

Abstract
Recently, proteins separation has drawn great interest for the full investigation of a proteome because the proteins separation is the precondition when conducting clinical research or proteomics research. Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) are fabricated via covalent connection between organic ligands and metal ions/clusters units. MOFs have attracted much attention due to the ultra-high specific surface area, tunable structure, more metal site or unsaturated site, and chemical stability. Over the past decade, different functionalization types of MOFs have been reported in combination with amino acids, nucleic acids, proteins, polymers, and nanoparticles for various applications. In this review, the synthesis and functionalization of MOFs have been thoroughly discussed, and we introduced the existing problems and development trends in these fields. Furthermore, MOFs as advanced adsorbents for selective separation of proteins/peptides are summarized. Additionally, we present a comprehensive prospects and challenges in the preparation of robust functional MOFs-based adsorbents and make a final outlook on their future development prospects in selective separation of proteins/peptides.

Abstract
In this study, a new and efficient Rod-like bifunctional Fe-based MOF@CuO nanocomposites (RL BF Fe-based MOF@CuO NC) were synthesized as new and efficient heterogeneous catalyst through a simple method from easily available 1,3,5-benzenetricarbocylic acid linker, nitrate ferric as a source of iron and copper oxide (CuO) nanoparticles under microwave irradiation. The synthesized nanocatalysts were characterized with different techniques such as Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), mapping, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The RL BF Fe-based MOF@CuO NC had relatively high specific surface area (203 m2 g-1) while exhibiting superparamagnetic properties. The catalytic activity of RL BF Fe-based MOF@CuO NC was explored in a facile and green methodology to prepare diverse N‑amino-2-pyridones by one-pot four component reactions comprising aromatic aldehyde, malononitrile, methyl cyanoacetate and hydrazine hydrate within mild and solvent-free conditions. This protocol enjoys features like providing the final products during low reaction times in excellent yields under solvent-free conditions. The use of easily available and inexpensive reactants for the synthesis of the catalyst, environmental compatibility, low catalyst loading, fast and clean work-up and reusability of catalyst for several cycles with consistent activity are counted as the outstanding features of this procedure.

Green Synthesis of MOF-Mediated pH-Sensitive Nanomaterial AgNPs@ZIF-8 and Its Application in Improving the Antibacterial Performance of AgNPs. Int J Nanomedicine 2023; 18:4857-4870. [PMID: 37662688 PMCID: PMC10473413 DOI: 10.2147/ijn.s418308] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2023] [Accepted: 08/04/2023] [Indexed: 09/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Purpose Herein, an emerging drug delivery system was constructed based on zeolite imidazole backbone (ZIF-8) to improve antibacterial defects of nanosilver (AgNPs), such as easily precipitated and highly cytotoxic. Methods The homogeneous dispersion of AgNPs on ZIF-8 was confirmed by UV-Vis spectroscopy, FTIR spectroscopy, particle size analysis, zeta potential analysis, and SEM. The appropriate AgNPs loading ratio on ZIF-8 was screened through the cell and antibacterial experiments based on biosafety and antibacterial performance. The optimal environment for AgNPs@ZIF-8 to exert antibacterial performance was probed in the context of bacterial communities under different acid-base conditions. The potential mechanism of AgNPs@ZIF-8 to inhibit the common clinical strains was investigated by observing the biofilm metabolic activity and the level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in bacteria. Results The successful piggybacking of AgNPs by ZIF-8 was confirmed using UV-Vis spectroscopy, FTIR spectroscopy, particle size analysis, zeta potential analysis, and SEM characterization methods. Based on the bacterial growth curve (0-24 hours), the antibacterial ability of AgNPs@ZIF-8 was found to be superior to AgNPs. When the mass ratio of ZIF-8 and AgNPs was 1:0.25, the selection of AgNPs@ZIF-8 was based on its superior antimicrobial efficacy and enhanced biocompatibility. Notably, under weakly acidic bacterial microenvironments (pH=6.4), AgNPs@ZIF-8 demonstrated a more satisfactory antibacterial effect. In addition, experiments on biofilms showed that concentrations of AgNPs@ZIF-8 exceeding 1×MIC resulted in more than 50% biofilm removal. The nanomedicine was found to increase ROS levels upon detecting the ROS concentration in bacteria. Conclusion Novel nanocomposites consisting of low cytotoxicity drug carrier ZIF-8 loaded with AgNPs exhibited enhanced antimicrobial effects compared to AgNPs alone. The pH-responsive nano drug delivery system, AgNPs@ZIF-8, exhibited superior antimicrobial activity in a mildly acidic environment. Moreover, AgNPs@ZIF-8 effectively eradicated pathogenic bacterial biofilms and elevated the intracellular level of ROS.

Abstract
Today, with the indiscriminate use of antibiotics, we face the resistance of some bacterial strains against some antibiotics. Therefore, it is essential to report and synthesize new compounds with antimicrobial properties. A novel copper/dipicolinic acid-metal-organic framework cross-linked oxidized pectin and chitosan (Cu/DPA-MOF/OP/CS) hydrogel polymer was synthesized under environmental conditions with the controllable process, which uses biodegradable polymer compounds such as pectin and chitosan in its structure. The efficient physicochemical features of the synthesized Cu/DPA-MOF/OP/CS hydrogel using SEM, FT-IR, TGA, BET, XRD, and EDS/mapping were identified and confirmed. The newly synthesized Cu/DPA-MOF/OP/CS hydrogel showed activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains and fungal species, and significant antibacterial and antifungal properties were observed. In antibacterial activity, the MIC against Gram-positive species was in the range of 16-128 mg/mL, the MIC against Gram-negative species was in the range of 64-256 mg/mL, and the MIC against fungal species was in the range of 128-512 mg/mL. In antimicrobial evaluations, in addition to the MIC test, the MBC test, the MFC test, and the IZD test were performed, and the results were reported. The results were compared with commercial antibiotics in the market. Development of novel nanostructures based on hydrogel polymers with distinctive functionality can affect the performance of these nanostructures in different areas.

Abstract
Telomerase is constitutively overexpressed in the majority of human cancers and telomerase inhibition provides a promising broad-spectrum anticancer therapeutic strategy. BIBR 1532 is a well-known synthetic telomerase inhibitor that blocks the enzymatic activity of hTERT, the catalytic subunit of telomerase. However, water insolubility of BIBR 1532 leads to low cellular uptake and inadequate delivery and thus, limits its anti-tumor effects. Zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) is considered as an attractive drug delivery vehicle for improved transport, release and anti-tumor effects of BIBR 1532. Herein, ZIF-8 and BIBR 1532@ZIF-8 were synthesized, respectively, and the physicochemical characterizations confirmed the successful encapsulation of BIBR 1532 in ZIF-8 coupled with an improved stability of BIBR 1532. ZIF-8 could alter the permeability of lysosomal membrane probably by the imidazole ring-dependent protonation. Moreover, ZIF-8 encapsulation facilitated the cellular uptake and release of BIBR 1532 with more accumulation in the nucleus. BIBR 1532 encapsulation with ZIF-8 triggered a more obvious growth inhibition of cancer cells as compared with free BIBR 1532. A more potent inhibition on hTERT mRNA expression, aggravated G0/G1 arrest accompanied with an increased cellular senescence were detected in BIBR 1532@ZIF-8-treated cancer cells. Our work has provided preliminary information on improving the transport, release and efficacy of water-insoluble small molecule drugs by using ZIF-8 as a delivery vehicle.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a highly versatile class of ordered porous materials, which hold great promise for different biomedical applications, including antibacterial therapy. In light of the antibacterial effects, these nanomaterials can be attractive for several reasons. First, MOFs exhibit a high loading capacity for numerous antibacterial drugs, including antibiotics, photosensitizers, and/or photothermal molecules. The inherent micro- or meso-porosity of MOF structures enables their use as nanocarriers for simultaneous encapsulation of multiple drugs resulting in a combined therapeutic effect. In addition to being encapsulated into an MOF's pores, antibacterial agents can sometimes be directly incorporated into an MOF skeleton as organic linkers. Next, MOFs contain coordinated metal ions in their structure. Incorporation of Fe2/3+, Cu2+, Zn2+, Co2+, and Ag+ can significantly increase the innate cytotoxicity of these materials for bacteria and cause a synergistic effect. Finally, abundance of functional groups enables modifying the external surface of MOF particles with stealth coating and ligand moieties for improved drug delivery. To date, there are a number of MOF-based nanomedicines available for the treatment of bacterial infections. This review is focused on biomedical consideration of MOF nano-formulations designed for the therapy of intracellular infections such as Staphylococcus aureus, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and Chlamydia trachomatis. Increasing knowledge about the ability of MOF nanoparticles to accumulate in a pathogen intracellular niche in the host cells provides an excellent opportunity to use MOF-based nanomedicines for the eradication of persistent infections. Here, we discuss advantages and current limitations of MOFs, their clinical significance, and their prospects for the treatment of the mentioned infections.

Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 242:124627. [PMID: 37119882 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.124627] [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: 02/15/2023] [Revised: 04/18/2023] [Accepted: 04/23/2023] [Indexed: 05/01/2023]
Abstract
This manuscript describes the synthesis and characterization of a hybrid polymer/HKUST-1 composite for oral drug delivery. A green, one-pot approach was employed to synthesize the modified metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) composite using alkali lignin as a novel pH-responsive biopolymer carrier for the simulated oral delivery system. Several analytical techniques, including Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to analyze the chemical and crystalline structure of HKUST-1 and L/HKUST-1 composite. The drug loading capacity and drug-controlled release behavior of HKUST-1 and L/HKUST-1 were examined using ibuprofen (IBU) as an oral drug model. L/HKUST-1 composite demonstrated a pH-controlled drug release behavior by advancing the drug stability at low pHs such as the gastric medium and controlling drug release in the pH range of 6.8-7.4, similar to intestinal pH. The results suggest that the L/HKUST-1 composite is a promising candidate for oral medication delivery.

Abstract
A chiral metal-organic framework L-Histidine-Zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (L-His-ZIF-67) was synthesized by the mixture of chiral organic ligand L-histidine and non-chiral organic ligand 2-methylimidazole directly, and to the author's knowledge, the chiral L-His-ZIF-67 coated capillary column we prepared has still not been reported to date in the field of capillary electrophoresis. This chiral metal-organic frameworks material was used as the chiral stationary phase for enantioseparation of drugs by open-tubular capillary electrochromatography. The separation conditions such as pH value, buffer concentration and proportion of organic modifier were optimized. Under optimal conditions, the established enantioseparation system achieved good separation effect, and the resolution of five chiral drugs: esmolol (7.93), nefopam (3.03), salbutamol (2.42), scopolamine (1.08) and sotalol (0.81). In addition, the chiral recognition mechanism of L-His-ZIF-67 was elucidated by a series of mechanism experiments, and the specific interaction force was preliminarily speculated.

Abstract
Cancer is ranked as the second leading cause of death globally. Traditional cancer therapies including chemotherapy are flawed, with off-target and on-target toxicities on the normal cells, requiring newer strategies to improve cell selective targeting. The application of nanomaterial has been extensively studied and explored as chemical biology tools in cancer theranostics. It shows greater applications toward stability, biocompatibility, and increased cell permeability, resulting in precise targeting, and mitigating the shortcomings of traditional cancer therapies. The nanoplatform offers an exciting opportunity to gain targeting strategies and multifunctionality. The advent of nanotechnology, in particular the development of smart nanomaterials, has transformed cancer diagnosis and treatment. The large surface area of nanoparticles is enough to encapsulate many molecules and the ability to functionalize with various biosubstrates such as DNA, RNA, aptamers, and antibodies, which helps in theranostic action. Comparatively, biologically derived nanomaterials perceive advantages over the nanomaterials produced by conventional methods in terms of economy, ease of production, and reduced toxicity. The present review summarizes various techniques in cancer theranostics and emphasizes the applications of smart nanomaterials (such as organic nanoparticles (NPs), inorganic NPs, and carbon-based NPs). We also critically discussed the advantages and challenges impeding their translation in cancer treatment and diagnostic applications. This review concludes that the use of smart nanomaterials could significantly improve cancer theranostics and will facilitate new dimensions for tumor detection and therapy.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a very promising platform for applications in various industries. In recent years, a variety of methods have been developed for the preparation and modification of MOFs, providing a wide range of materials for different applications in life science. Despite the wide range of different MOFs in terms of properties/sizes/chemical nature, they have not found wide application in biomedical practices at present. In this review, we look at the main methods for the preparation of MOFs that can ensure biomedical applications. In addition, we also review the available options for tuning the key parameters, such as size, morphology, and porosity, which are crucial for the use of MOFs in biomedical systems. This review also analyses possible applications for MOFs of different natures. Their high porosity allows the use of MOFs as universal carriers for different therapeutic molecules in the human body. The wide range of chemical species involved in the synthesis of MOFs makes it possible to enhance targeting and prolongation, as well as to create delivery systems that are sensitive to various factors. In addition, we also highlight how injectable, oral, and even ocular delivery systems based on MOFs can be used. The possibility of using MOFs as therapeutic agents and sensitizers in photodynamic, photothermal, and sonodynamic therapy was also reviewed. MOFs have demonstrated high selectivity in various diagnostic systems, making them promising for future applications. The present review aims to systematize the main ways of modifying MOFs, as well as the biomedical applications of various systems based on MOFs.

Abstract
Separation and purification of Cytochrome C (Cyt-C) is important for proteomic. High efficient and selective pretreatment method for Cyt-C in real samples are always needed. Herein, polyniobate (K7H[Nb6O19]·13H2O, Nb6O19) is modified on a metal-organic framework MIL-125(Ti) through intermolecular hydrogen bonds and an aqueous-stable composite Nb6O19/MIL-125(Ti) is successfully prepared to pretreat complex protein sample. Protein adsorption studies have shown that Nb6O19/MIL-125(Ti) can promote the selective adsorption of Cyt-C due to the synergistic effect of electrostatic and hydrogen-bond interactions. At pH=10.0 (Britton-Robinson buffer), the adsorption efficiency of 300 μL 100 μg·mL-1 Cyt-C onto 1.0 mg Nb6O19/MIL-125(Ti) can reach 99.5%. The adsorption behavior of Cyt-C fits well with the Langmuir adsorption model, corresponding to a maximum theoretical adsorption capacity of 168.35 mg·g-1. Using 3 mol·L-1 NaCl as the eluent, a high elution efficiency of 92.19% is obtained. In addition, the results of the sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) analysis confirm that Nb6O19/MIL-125(Ti) efficiently adsorbed Cyt-C from scrofa heart extraction. LC-MS/MS spectrometry results show that the purification of Cyt-C reduces the abundance from the 12th to the 154th place after Nb6O19/MIL-125(Ti) treatment. Moreover, low abundant proteins, e.g., Superoxide dismutase 1, IF rod domain-containing protein and Ubiquitin-60S ribosomal protein L40 were considerably enriched. These outcomes confirm the practicability of Nb6O19/MIL-125 (Ti) as a Cyt-C extractant has potential application value in scrofa heart proteomics.

Abstract
Primary amoebic meningoencephalitis and granulomatous amoebic encephalitis are distressing infections of the central nervous system caused by brain-eating amoebae, namely, Naegleria fowleri and Acanthamoeba spp., respectively, and present mortality rates of over 90%. No single drug has been approved for use against these infections, and current therapy is met with an array of obstacles including high toxicity and limited specificity. Thus, the development of alternative effective chemotherapeutic agents for the management of infections due to brain-eating amoebae is a crucial requirement to avert future mortalities. In this paper, we synthesized a conducting polymer-based nanocomposite entailing polyaniline (PANI) and molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) and explored its anti-trophozoite and anti-cyst potentials against Acanthamoeba castellanii and Naegleria fowleri. The intracellular generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and ultrastructural appearances of amoeba were also evaluated with treatment. Throughout, treatment with the 1:2 and 1:5 ratios of PANI/MoS2 at 100 μg/mL demonstrated significant anti-amoebic effects toward A. castellanii as well as N. fowleri, appraised to be ROS mediated and effectuate physical alterations to amoeba morphology. Further, cytocompatibility toward human keratinocyte skin cells (HaCaT) and primary human corneal epithelial cells (pHCEC) was noted. For the first time, polymer-based nanocomposites such as PANI/MoS2 are reported in this study as appealing options in the drug discovery for brain-eating amoebae infections.

Abstract
The study's primary goal was to enhance medicinal potential of piperine (PIP)-loaded zeolitic imidazolate frameworks-8 (PIP@ZIF-8) against doxorubicin (DOX)-induced cognitive impairments in zebrafish. Herein, PIP@ZIF-8 was synthesized via easy, economical and reproducible ultrasonication method followed by spray drying technology. ZIF-8's structural integrity has been confirmed by PXRD, and even after PIP was encapsulated, the structure of ZIF-8 remained unchanged. Pure ZIF-8 and PIP@ZIF-8 were subjected to TEM analysis, which revealed hexagonal morphology with a nanosize range. FTIR and UV-Visible spectroscopy studies confirmed the drug loading of ZIF-8. Studies on in vitro release revealed 71.48 ± 7.21% and 34.56 ± 5.35% PIP release from PIP@ZIF-8 and unformulated PIP, respectively in pH 7.4. The highest antioxidant scavenging results were obtained with vitamin C (73.77 ± 6.7%) at an intensity of 200 μg/ml, though it was 65.09 ± 2.5% and 57.99 ± 3.1% for PIP@ZIF-8 and PIP, respectively. In vivo studies on zebrafish showed that DOX administration remarkably impaired cognitive activity in T-Maze, and downregulated spatial memory and locomotor activity in the open field test. In addition, DOX administration caused a downregulation in GSH and SOD levels and increase in LPO, AChE and TNF-α levels compared to the vehicle group along with changes in brain histopathology. Further, PIP@ZIF-8 reversed the DOX-induced cognitive impairments by its antioxidant and neuroprotective properties. It can be concluded that PIP@ZIF-8 has a promising therapeutic potential against the chemotherapy-induced cognitive impairments in zebrafish.

Abstract
Among modern biomaterials, hybrid tools containing an organic component and a metal cation are recognized as added value, and, for many advanced biomedical applications, synthetic polymers are used as thin protective/functional coatings for medical or prosthetic devices and implants. These materials require specific non-degradability, biocompatibility, antimicrobial, and antiproliferative properties to address safety aspects concerning their use in medicine. Moreover, bioimaging monitoring of the biomedical device and/or implant through biological tissues is a desirable ability. This article reports a novel hybrid metallopolymer obtained by grafting zinc-coordinated fragments to an organic polymeric matrix. This hybrid polymer, owing to its relevant emission in the deep red to near-infrared (DR/NIR) region, is monitorable; therefore, it represents a potential material for biomedical coating. Furthermore, it shows good biocompatibility and adhesion properties and excellent stability in slightly acidic/basic water solutions. Finally, in contact with the superficial layers of human skin, it shows antimicrobial properties against Staphylococcus aureus bacterial strains.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a new class of porous crystalline materials composed of metal and organic material. MOFs have fascinating properties, such as fine tunability, large specific surface area, and high porosity. MOFs are widely used for environmental protection, biosensors, regenerative medicine, medical engineering, cell therapy, catalysts, and drug delivery. Recent studies have reported various significant properties of MOFs for biomedical applications, such as drug detection and delivery. In contrast, MOFs have limitations such as low stability and low specificity in binding to the target. MOF-based membranes improve the stability and specificity of conventional MOFs by increasing the surface area and developing the possibility of MOF-ligand binding, while conjugated membranes dramatically increase the area of active functional groups. This special property makes them attractive for drug and biosensor fabrication, as both the spreading and solubility components of the porosity can be changed. Asymmetric membranes are a structure with high potential in the biomedical field, due to the different characteristics on its two surfaces, the possibility of adjusting various properties such as the size of porosity, transfer rate and selectivity, and surface properties such as hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity. MOF assisted asymmetric membranes can provide a platform with different properties and characteristics in the biomedical field. The latest version of MOF materials/membranes has several potential applications, especially in medical engineering, cell therapy, drug delivery, and regenerative medicine, which will be discussed in this review, along with their advantages, disadvantages, and challenges.

Abstract
After periodontal tissue injury, reconstruct soft tissue sealing around the tooth surface is of fundamental importance to treat periodontitis. Among multiple cell types, fibroblast plays a central role in reestablishing functional periodontium. To enhance fibroblast activity, a novel metal-organic framework-based nanoplatform is fabricated using mesoporous Prussian blue (MPB) nanoparticles to load baicalein (BA), named MPB-BA. Drug release test displayed sustained BA release of MPB-BA. Cell proliferation, transwell migration and wound healing tests revealed accelerated fibroblast proliferation and migration for the established MPB-BA nanoplatform. Moreover, vinculin immunofluorescence staining, western blot and quantitative real-time PCR analysis showed up-regulated vinculin protein and integrin α5 and integrin β1 gene expressions for MPB-BA, suggesting improved cell adhesion. In addition, hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) and Masson trichromatic staining suggested superior anti-inflammatory and collagen fiber reconstruction effects for MPB-BA in a rat experimental periodontitis model in vivo. Our study may provide a promising strategy for the treatment of periodontitis.

Metal-Organic Frameworks and Their Biodegradable Composites for Controlled Delivery of Antimicrobial Drugs. Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:pharmaceutics15010274. [PMID: 36678903 PMCID: PMC9861052 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics15010274] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2022] [Revised: 01/06/2023] [Accepted: 01/09/2023] [Indexed: 01/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing global crisis with an increasing number of untreatable or exceedingly difficult-to-treat bacterial infections, due to their growing resistance to existing drugs. It is predicted that AMR will be the leading cause of death by 2050. In addition to ongoing efforts on preventive strategies and infection control, there is ongoing research towards the development of novel vaccines, antimicrobial agents, and optimised diagnostic practices to address AMR. However, developing new therapeutic agents and medicines can be a lengthy process. Therefore, there is a parallel ongoing worldwide effort to develop materials for optimised drug delivery to improve efficacy and minimise AMR. Examples of such materials include functionalisation of surfaces so that they can become self-disinfecting or non-fouling, and the development of nanoparticles with promising antimicrobial properties attributed to their ability to damage numerous essential components of pathogens. A relatively new class of materials, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), is also being investigated for their ability to act as carriers of antimicrobial agents, because of their ultrahigh porosity and modular structures, which can be engineered to control the delivery mechanism of loaded drugs. Biodegradable polymers have also been found to show promising applications as antimicrobial carriers; and, recently, several studies have been reported on delivery of antimicrobial drugs using composites of MOF and biodegradable polymers. This review article reflects on MOFs and polymer-MOF composites, as carriers and delivery agents of antimicrobial drugs, that have been studied recently, and provides an overview of the state of the art in this highly topical area of research.

Abstract
Pressure sensors urgently need high-performance sensing materials in order to be developed further. Sensitivity and creep are regarded as two key indices for assessing a sensor's performance. For the design and optimization of sensing materials, an accurate estimation of the impact of several parameters on sensitivity and creep is essential. In this study, sensitivity and creep were predicted using the response surface methodology (RSM) and support vector regression (SVR), respectively. The input parameters were the concentrations of nickel (Ni) particles, multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), and multilayer graphene (MLG), as well as the magnetic field intensity (B). According to statistical measures, the SVR model exhibited a greater level of predictability and accuracy. The non-dominated sorting genetic-II algorithm (NSGA-II) was used to generate the Pareto-optimal fronts, and decision-making was used to determine the final optimal solution. With these conditions, the optimized results revealed an improved performance compared to the earlier study, with an average sensitivity of 0.059 kPa-1 in the pressure range of 0-16 kPa and a creep of 0.0325, which showed better sensitivity in a wider range compared to previous work. The theoretical sensitivity and creep were relatively similar to the actual values, with relative deviations of 0.317% and 0.307% after simulation and experimental verification. Future research for transducer performance optimization can make use of the provided methodology because it is representative.

Synthesis and Characterization of a Novel Zinc-Based Metal-Organic Framework Containing Benzoic Acid: A Low-Toxicity Carrier for Drug Delivery. IRANIAN JOURNAL OF PHARMACEUTICAL RESEARCH : IJPR 2023; 22:e136238.

Abstract
In recent years, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have gained attention in the biomedical field, particularly as drug carriers for treating tumors. Therefore, we decided to synthesize a novel benzoic acid Zn-based MOF and study the Zn-based MOFs' drug-delivery properties and the drug-delivery system's anticancer effects. This study successfully synthesized a zinc-based MOF using solvent thermal synthesis. The crystal structure of a Zn-based MOF was investigated using thermogravimetric analysis, X-ray diffraction, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Subsequently, the results of UV spectrophotometry showed that Doxorubicin was successfully loaded with a loading amount of 33.74%. Furthermore, the drug release experiments demonstrated that the Zn-based MOF was pH-sensitive, releasing more at a pH of 3.8 than at pH 5.8 or 7.4. Finally, the Zn-based MOF loaded with drugs exhibited high antitumor activity against HepG2 cells while demonstrating remarkably low toxicity to normal cells (LO2). Taken together, these results demonstrate that the Zn-based MOF has the potential to serve as a carrier in the field of drug delivery systems.

Abstract
Nanomaterials possess superior advantages due to their special geometries, higher surface area, and unique mechanical, optical, and physicochemical properties. Their characteristics make them great contributors to the development of many technological and industrial sectors. Therefore, novel nanomaterials have an increasing interest in many research areas including biomedicine such as chronic inflammations, disease detection, drug delivery, and infections treatment. Their relevant role is, in many cases, associated with an effective catalytic application, either as a pure catalyst (acting as a nanozyme) or as a support for catalytically active materials (forming nanobiocatalysts). In this review, we analyze the construction of nanozymes and nanobiocatalyst by different existing forms of nanomaterials including carbon-based nanomaterials, metal-based nanomaterials, and polymer-based nanocomposites. Then, we examine successful examples of such nanomaterials employed in biomedical research. The role played by nanomaterials in catalytic applications is analyzed to identify possible research directions toward the development of the field and the achievement of real practicability.

Abstract
Food safety issue is becoming an international challenge for human health owing to the presence of contaminants. In this context, reliable, rapid, and sensitive detecting technology is extremely demanded to establish food safety assurance systems. MOFs (Metal-organic frameworks) are a new type of porous crystalline material with particular physical and chemical characteristics presented in food safety requirements. (Bio)sensors driven MOF materials have emerged as a promising alternative and complementary analytical techniques, owing to their great specific area, high porosity, and uniform and fine-tunable pore buildings. Nevertheless, the insufficient stability and electrical conductivity of classical MOFs limit their utilization. Employing graphene-derived nanomaterials with high functional elements as patterns for the MOF materials not only improves the structural instability and poor conductivity but also impedes the restacking and aggregation between graphene layers, thus significantly extending the MOFs application. A review of MOFs-graphene-based material used in food contamination detection is urgently needed for encouraging the advance of this field. Herein, this paper systematically outlines current breakthroughs in MOF-graphene-based nanoprobes, outlines their principles, and illustrates their employments in identifying mycotoxins, heavy metal ions, pathogens, antibiotics, and pesticides, referring to their multiplexing and sensitivity ability. The challenges and limitations of applying MOF-graphene composite for precise and efficient assessment of food were also debated. This paper would maybe offer some inspired concepts for an upcoming study on MOF-based composites in the food security context.

Revisiting Non-Conventional Crystallinity-Induced Effects on Molecular Mobility in Sustainable Diblock Copolymers of Poly(propylene adipate) and Polylactide. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27217449.

Abstract
This work deals with molecular mobility in renewable block copolymers based on polylactide (PLA) and poly(propylene adipate) (PPAd). In particular, we assess non-trivial effects on the mobility arising from the implementation of crystallization. Differential scanning calorimetry, polarized light microscopy and broadband dielectric spectroscopy were employed in combination for this study. The materials were subjected to various thermal treatments aiming at the manipulation of crystallization, namely, fast and slow cooling, isothermal melt- and cold-crystallization. Subsequently, we evaluated the changes recorded in the overall thermal behavior, semicrystalline morphology and molecular mobility (segmental and local). The molecular dynamics map for neat PPAd is presented here for the first time. Unexpectedly, the glass transition temperature, Tg, in the amorphous state drops upon crystallization by 8–50 K. The drop becomes stronger with the increase in the PPAd fraction. Compared to the amorphous state, crystallization leads to significantly faster segmental dynamics with severely suppressed cooperativity. For the PLA/PPAd copolymers, the effects are systematically stronger in the cold- as compared to the melt-crystallization, whereas the opposite happens for neat PLA. The local βPLA relaxation of PLA was, interestingly, recorded to almost vanish upon crystallization. This suggests that the corresponding molecular groups (carbonyl) are strongly involved and immobilized within the semicrystalline regions. The overall results suggest the involvement of either spatial nanoconfinement imposed on the mobile chains within the inter-crystal amorphous areas and/or a crystallization-driven effect of nanophase separation. The latter phase separation seems to be at the origins of the significant discrepancy recorded between the calorimetric and dielectric recordings on Tg in the copolymers. Once again, compared to more conventional techniques such as calorimetry, dielectric spectroscopy was proved a powerful and quite sensitive tool in recording such effects as well as in providing indirect indications for the polymer chains’ topology.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a class of hybrid porous crystalline materials that are assembled with metal ions/clusters and organic linkers. The fungibility of organic ligands and metal centers endow MOFs that are easy to design and synthesize. Based on their unique structure, multifarious MOFs with diverse functionalities have recently been widely applied in various research areas. Particularly striking is the application of photo-responsive MOFs in biological sensing and imaging. Notably, the photoelectronic properties make photo-responsive MOFs an ideal platform for cancer phototherapy. Moreover, ultrahigh porosities and tunable pore sizes allow MOFs to load anticancer drugs, further enhancing the antitumor efficiency. In this review, the categories and developing strategies of MOFs are briefly introduced. The application fields of MOFs in bioimaging, such as up-conversion fluorescence imaging, single/two-photon fluorescence bioimaging, magnetic resonance imaging, etc., are summarized. The working mechanism of MOFs in photo-responsive, photothermal therapy (PTT), and photodynamic therapy (PDT) are expounded. Examples of using MOFs for cancer treatment, including PTT, PDT, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy, are also demonstrated. Lastly, current limitations, challenges, and future perspectives for bioimaging and cancer treatment of MOFs are discussed. We believe that the versatile MOF will bring the dawn to the next generation of cancer treatment.

Identification of Photocatalytic Alkaloids from Coptidis Rhizome by an Offline HPLC/CC/SCD Approach. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27196179.

Abstract
Natural products continue to be a valuable source of active metabolites; however, researchers of natural products are mostly focused on the biological effects, and their chemical utility has been less explored. Furthermore, low throughput is a bottleneck for classical natural product research. In this work, a new offline HPLC/CC/SCD (high performance liquid chromatography followed by co-crystallization and single crystal diffraction) workflow was developed that greatly expedites the discovery of active compounds from crude natural product extracts. The photoactive total alkaloids of the herbal medicine Coptidis rhizome were firstly separated by HPLC, and the individual peaks were collected. A suitable coformer was screened by adding it to the individual peak solution and observing the precipitation, which was then redissolved and used for co-crystallization. Seven new co-crystals were obtained, and all the single crystals were subjected to X-ray diffraction analysis. The molecular structures of seven alkaloids from milligrams of crude extract were resolved within three days. NDS greatly decreases the required crystallization amounts of alkaloids to the nanoscale and enables rapid stoichiometric inclusion of all the major alkaloids with full occupancy, typically without disorder, affording well-refined structures. It is noteworthy that anomalous scattering by the coformer sulfur atoms enables reliable assignment of absolute configuration of stereogenic centers. Moreover, the identified alkaloids were firstly found to be photocatalysts for the green synthesis of benzimidazoles. This study demonstrates a new and green phytochemical workflow that can greatly accelerate natural product discovery from complex samples.
