Abstract
5-fluorouracil (5-FU), a chemotherapeutic agent against oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), is limited by poor pharmacokinetics and toxicity. The pH-sensitive zeolite imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) may increase the selectivity and length of 5-FU released into the acidic tumor microenvironment. This study examined the in vitro 5-FU absorption and release profiles of ZIF-8, and then progressed to cytotoxicity assays using the OSCC primary cell line SCC7. The 5-FU loading capacity of ZIF-8 was calculated with UV-vis spectroscopy (λ = 260 nm). 5-FU release was quantified by submerging 5-FU@ZIF-8 in pH 7.4 and 5.5 acetate buffer over 48 h. For the cytotoxicity assays, 5-FU, ZIF-8, and 5-FU@ZIF-8 were added to SCC7 cultures at 25, 50, and 100 μg/mL. Cell viability was assessed through toluidine blue staining and further quantified through transcriptomic RNA sequencing. ZIF-8 stabilized at a maximum absorption of 2.71 ± 0.22 mg 5-FU, and released 0.66 mg more 5-FU at pH 5.5 than 7.4 for at least 72 h. The cytotoxicity assays showed that 5-FU@ZIF-8 had a synergistic inhibitory effect at 50 μg/mL. The RNA sequencing analysis further revealed the molecular targets of 5-FU@ZIF-8 in SCC7. 5-FU@ZIF-8 may release 5-FU based on the pH of the surrounding microenvironments and synergistically inhibit OSCC.

Abstract
With the rapid advancement of nanotechnology, stimuli-responsive nanomaterials have emerged as a feasible choice for the designing of controlled drug delivery systems. Zeolitic imidazolates frameworks are a subclass of Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) that are recognized by their excellent porosity, structural tunability and chemical modifications make them promising materials for loading targeted molecules and therapeutics agents. The biomedical industry uses these porous materials extensively as nano-carriers in drug delivery systems. These MOFs not only possess excellent targeted imaging ability but also cause the death of tumor cells drawing considerable attention in the current framework of anticancer drug delivery systems. In this review, the outline of stability, porosity, mechanism of encapsulation and release of anticancer drug have been reported extensively. In the end, we also discuss a brief outline of current challenges and future perspectives of ZIFs in the biomedical world.

Implantation of In Situ Gelling Systems for the Delivery of Chemotherapeutic Agents. Gels 2024; 10:44. [PMID: 38247767 PMCID: PMC10815592 DOI: 10.3390/gels10010044] [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: 11/30/2023] [Revised: 12/30/2023] [Accepted: 01/02/2024] [Indexed: 01/23/2024] Open
Abstract
Implantation is a modern method of administering chemotherapeutic agents, with a highly targeted effect and better patient tolerance due to the low frequency of administration. Implants are capable of controlled release, which makes them a viable alternative to infusional chemotherapy, allowing patients to enjoy a better quality of life without the need for prolonged hospitalization. Compared to subcutaneous implantation, intratumoral implantation has a number of significant advantages in terms of targeting and side effects, but this area of chemotherapy is still poorly understood in terms of clinical trials. At the same time, there are more known developments of drugs in the form of implants and injections for intratumoral administration. The disadvantages of classical intratumoral implants are the need for surgical intervention to install the system and the increased risk of tumor rupture noted by some specialists. The new generation of implants are in situ implants-systems formed in the tumor due to a phase transition (sol-gel transition) under the influence of various stimuli. Among this systems some are highly selective for a certain type of malignant neoplasm. Such systems are injected and have all the advantages of intratumoral injections, but due to the phase transition occurring in situ, they form depot forms that allow the long-term release of chemotherapeutic agents.

Abstract
Resistance and severe side effects of classical chemotherapeutic drugs are major challenges to cancer therapy. New therapeutic agents and combination therapy are considered potential solutions that enhance the efficacy of the drug as well as reduce drug resistance. The success of a platinum-based anticancer drug, cisplatin, has paved the way to explore metal-centered anticancer therapeutic agents. Herein, the zeolite-Y-encapsulated Zn(II)Salmphen complex is synthesized using a flexible ligand approach. The Zn(II)Salmphen complex and its encapsulation within the supercage of zeolite-Y were characterized by elemental analysis, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, UV-vis, fluorescence, powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), NMR, and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) techniques. Elemental analysis, PXRD, and SEM, all together confirm the integrity of the zeolite framework after the encapsulation of Zn(II)Salmphen complex in it, and elemental analysis provides the Si/Al ratio and Zn content present. FTIR and XPS studies indicate the successful encapsulation of the complex. NMR and HRMS studies confirm that the Zn(II)Salmphen complex is dimer; however, within the supercage of zeolite-Y, it is expected to exist as a monomer. The extent of structural modification of the encapsulated Zn(II)Salmphen complex is intimated by electronic spectroscopic studies. The free-state Zn(II)Salmphen is a fluorescent complex, and even the encapsulated Zn(II)Salmphen complex, when taken in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), shows fluorescence. In comparison to cisplatin, encapsulated Zn(II)Salmphen complex displays comparable cytotoxicity (IC50 = 2.0 ± 0.5 μg/mL at 48 h) toward breast cancer cell line, whereas free Zn(II)Salmphen has better cytotoxicity (IC50 = 1.5 ± 0.5 μg/mL at 48 h). Importantly, elemental analysis has revealed that the IC50 value, if calculated only in terms of Zn(II)Salmphen within Zn(II)Salmphen-Y, is as low as 54.59 ng/mL, indicating a very high efficacy of the drug. Interestingly, a 48 h treatment with the encapsulated Zn(II)Salmphen complex shows no toxicity toward immortal noncancerous keratinocyte cells (HaCaT), whereas cisplatin has an IC50 value of 1.75 ± 0.5 μg/mL. Internalization studies indicate that zeolite-Y targets cancer cells better than it does noncancerous ones. Hence, cellular uptake of the zeolite-encapsulated Zn(II)Salmphen complex in cancer cells is more than that in HaCaT cells, resulting in the generation of more reactive oxygen species and cell death. Significant upregulation of DNA damage response protein indicates that DNA-damage-induced cellular apoptosis could be the mechanism of drug action. Overall, the zeolite-encapsulated Zn(II)Salmphen complex could be a better alternative to the traditional drug cisplatin with minimal effect on noncancerous HaCaT cells and can also be utilized as a fluorescent probe in exploring the mechanistic pathway of its activity against cancer cells.

Abstract
Beneficial effects of a natural zeolite clinoptilolite in vivo on mammals, including humans, have been empirically observed and documented in literature. The positive biological activities have been associated to its detoxifying and antioxidative properties, and its immunostimulative and adsorption properties. Herein, we present the in vitro and in vivo study of clinoptilolite zeolite materials adsorption properties for d-glucose. In particular, we present data on the interaction of d-glucose on the tested zeolites' surface obtained by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and quantification by ultra high-performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC). We also present results on the reduction of blood glucose levels in mice pre-treated with clinoptilolite in vivo upon feeding with d-glucose. In vivo results were in line with the in vitro adsorption and/or interaction properties of tested zeolite materials for d-glucose and were quantified by UHPLC as well (11.34% for TMAZ; 10.82% for PMA and 8.76% for PMAO2). In vivo experiments in mice showed that PMA zeolite reduces blood glucose levels upon 15 min for 13% (at p < 0.05) up to 19.11% upon 120 min (without statistical significance) in clinoptilolite pre-treated mice fed by addition of d-glucose. Due to lack of explicit mechanistic knowledge on zeolite clinoptilolite interactions or adsorption with sugars in vitro and in vivo, presented study provides novel insights into these aspects for researchers in the field. The presented data merit further investigations as the material clearly shows a potential in management of hyperglycemia, such as for example in obese people, people with diabetes and people with metabolic syndrome where it could help regulate blood glucose levels.

Abstract
The estrogen metabolite 2-methoxyestradiol (2ME) is a promissory anticancer drug mainly because of its pro-apoptotic properties in cancer cells. However, the therapeutic use of 2ME has been hampered due to its low solubility and bioavailability. Thus, it is necessary to find new ways of administration for 2ME. Zeolites are inorganic aluminosilicates with a porous structure and are considered good adsorbents and sieves in the pharmaceutical field. Here, mordenite-type zeolite nanoparticles were loaded with 2ME to assess its efficiency as a delivery system for prostate cancer treatment. The 2ME-loaded zeolite nanoparticles showed an irregular morphology with a mean hydrodynamic diameter of 250.9 ± 11.4 nm, polydispersity index of 0.36 ± 0.04, and a net negative surface charge of -34 ± 1.73 meV. Spectroscopy with UV-vis and Attenuated Total Reflectance Infrared Fourier-Transform was used to elucidate the interaction between the 2ME molecules and the zeolite framework showing the formation of a 2ME-zeolite conjugate in the nanocomposite. The studies of adsorption and liberation determined that zeolite nanoparticles incorporated 40% of 2ME while the liberation of 2ME reached 90% at pH 7.4 after 7 days. The 2ME-loaded zeolite nanoparticles also decreased the viability and increased the mRNA of the 2ME-target gene F-spondin, encoded by SPON1, in the human prostate cancer cell line LNCaP. Finally, the 2ME-loaded nanoparticles also decreased the viability of primary cultures from mouse prostate cancer. These results show the development of 2ME-loaded zeolite nanoparticles with physicochemical and biological properties compatible with anticancer activity on the human prostate and highlight that zeolite nanoparticles can be a good carrier system for 2ME.

Abstract
Sn species modified zeolite TS-1 with a unique mesopore structure (Sn-TS-1) and rich oxygen vacancy defects has been designed via a sol-gel method and an ion-exchange process, which can be used as an enzyme-free electrochemical sensor for H2O2 detection. The resultant composite Sn-TS-1 has a high BET surface area of 191 cm2 g-1, fast electron transfer, rich oxygen vacancies, and abundant active sites, showing super performance in H2O2 reduction with a low detection limit (0.27 μM, S/N = 3). The current is linear with H2O2 concentration from 1 to 1000 and 1000 to 11 000 μM, and the corresponding sensitivities are 360.4 and 80.44 μA mM-1 cm-1, respectively. More importantly, this Sn-TS-1 sensor also shows excellent anti-interference ability and stability. This work provides a new idea for an enzyme-free sensor for H2O2 detection in biological environments, which has promising potential in point-of-care (POC) testing for H2O2.

Essential Oils Encapsulated in Zeolite Structures as Delivery Systems (EODS): An Overview. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 27:molecules27238525. [PMID: 36500617 PMCID: PMC9740572 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27238525] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/08/2022] [Revised: 11/24/2022] [Accepted: 11/29/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Essential oils (EO) obtained from plants have proven industrial applications in the manufacturing of perfumes and cosmetics, in the production and flavoring of foods and beverages, as therapeutic agents in aromatherapy, and as the active principles or excipients of medicines and pharmaceutics due to their olfactory, physical-chemical, and biological characteristics. On behalf of the new paradigm of a more natural and sustainable lifestyle, EO are rather appealing due to their physical, chemical, and physiological actions in human beings. However, EO are unstable and susceptible to degradation or loss. To tackle this aspect, the encapsulation of EO in microporous structures as zeolites is an attractive solution, since these host materials are cheap and non-toxic to biological environments. This overview provides basic information regarding essential oils, including their recognized benefits and functional properties. Current progress regarding EO encapsulation in zeolite structures is also discussed, highlighting some representative examples of essential oil delivery systems (EODS) based on zeolites for healthcare applications or aromatherapy.

Abstract
The organization of microporous space in zeolites is discussed. A new step-by-step model is proposed that explains the principles of organizing the hierarchy of microporous space at the stage of assembling zeolites from elements of minimal size: a primary building unit, secondary building units, tertiary building units or building polyhedra, a sodalite cage, and a supercage. To illustrate the stepwise hierarchical porous structure of nanomaterials, the following zeolites with small and large micropores have been selected as the model objects: sodalite (SOD, the maximum diameter of a sphere that can enter the pores is 0.3 nm) and zeolites of type A (LTA, the maximum diameter of a sphere that can enter the pores is 0.41 nm), type X, Y (FAU, the maximum diameter of a sphere that can enter the pores is 0.75 nm), and type BETA (the maximum diameter of a sphere that can enter the pores is 0.67 nm). Two-dimensional and three-dimensional modeling in 3Ds Max software was used. We believe that such an approach will be useful for developing ways to create complex zeolite compositions for specific applications, such as catalysis, where the geometry of the pores determines the size of the molecules entering the voids and computer modeling can play an important predictive role. This work takes a look at specific aspects of using the heat desorption method to study mesoporous materials with a BETA zeolite as an example and presents the results of experimental research into the characteristics of the porous structure of hierarchically structured zeolite materials (specific surface area 180-380 m2/g, external surface area 120-200 m2/g, micropore volume 0.001-0.1 mL/g).

Abstract
The flue gas from fossil fuel power plants is a long-term stable and concentrated emission source of CO2, and it is imperative to reduce its emission. Adsorbents have played a pivotal role in reducing CO2 emissions in recent years, but the presence of water vapor in flue gas poses a challenge to the stability of adsorbents. In this study, ZIF-94, one of the ZIF adsorbents, showed good CO2 uptake (53.30 cm3/g), and the calculated CO2/N2 (15:85, v/v) selectivity was 54.12 at 298 K. Because of its excellent structural and performance stability under humid conditions, the CO2/N2 mixture was still well-separated on ZIF-94 with a separation time of 30.4 min when the relative humidity was as high as 99.2%, which was similar to the separation time of the dry gas experiments (33.2 min). These results pointed to the enormous potential applications of ZIF-94 for CO2/N2 separation under high humidity conditions in industrial settings.

Abstract
Zeolites belong to aluminosilicate microporous solids, with strong and diverse catalytic activity, which makes them applicable in almost every kind of industrial process, particularly thanks to their eco-friendly profile. Another crucial characteristic of zeolites is their tremendous adsorption capability. Therefore, it is self-evident that the widespread use of zeolites is in environmental protection, based primarily on the adsorption capacity of substances potentially harmful to the environment, such as pharmaceuticals, pesticides, or other industry pollutants. On the other hand, zeolites are also recognized as drug delivery systems (DDS) carriers for numerous pharmacologically active agents. The enhanced bioactive ability of DDS zeolite as a drug carrying nanoplatform is confirmed, making this system more specific and efficient, compared to the drug itself. These two applications of zeolite, in fact, illustrate the importance of (ir)reversibility of the adsorption process. This review gives deep insight into the balance and dynamics that are established during that process, i.e., the interaction between zeolites and pharmaceuticals, helping scientists to expand their knowledge necessarily for a more effective application of the adsorption phenomenon of zeolites.

Abstract
Cancer-targeting nanotherapeutics offer promising opportunities for selective delivery of cytotoxic chemotherapeutics to cancer cells. However, the understanding of dissolution behavior and safety profiles of such nanotherapeutics is scarce. In this study, we report the dissolution profile of a cancer-targeting nanotherapeutic, gemcitabine (GEM) encapsulated within RGD-functionalized zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (GEM⊂RGD@nZIF-8), in dissolution media having pH = 6.0 and 7.4. GEM⊂RGD@nZIF-8 was not only responsive in acidic media (pH = 6.0) but also able to sustain the dissolution rate (57.6%) after 48 h compared to non-targeting nanotherapeutic GEM⊂nZIF-8 (76%). This was reflected by the f2 value of 36.1, which indicated a difference in the dissolution behaviors of GEM⊂RGD@nZIF-8 and GEM⊂nZIF-8 in acidic media compared to those in neutral media (pH = 7.4). A dissolution kinetic study showed that the GEM release mechanism from GEM⊂RGD@nZIF-8 followed the Higuchi model. In comparison to a non-targeting nanotherapeutic, the cancer-targeting nanotherapeutic exhibited an enhanced permeability rate in healthy zebrafish embryos but did not induce lethality to 50% of the embryos (LC50 > 250 μg mL-1) with significantly improved survivability (75%) after 96 h of incubation. Monitoring malformation showed minimal adverse effects with only 8.3% of edema at 62.5 μg mL-1. This study indicates that cancer-targeting GEM⊂RGD@nZIF, with its pH-responsive behavior for sustaining chemotherapeutic dissolution in a physiologically relevant environment and its non-toxicity toward the healthy embryos within the tested concentrations, has considerable potential for use in cancer treatment.

Abstract
Catalysts derived from pyrolysis of metal organic frameworks (MOFs) are promising candidates to replace expensive and scarce platinum-based electrocatalysts commonly used in polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells. MOFs contain ordered connections between metal centers and organic ligands. They can be pyrolyzed into metal- and nitrogen-doped carbons, which show electrocatalytic activity toward the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Furthermore, metal-free heteroatom-doped carbons, such as N-F-Cs, are known for being active as well. Thus, a carbon material with Co-N-F doping could possibly be even more promising as ORR electrocatalyst. Herein, we report the mechanochemical synthesis of two polymorphs of a zeolitic imidazole framework, Co-doped zinc 2-trifluoromethyl-1H-imidazolate (Zn0.9Co0.1(CF3-Im)2). Time-resolved in situ X-ray diffraction studies of the mechanochemical formation revealed a direct conversion of starting materials to the products. Both polymorphs of Zn0.9Co0.1(CF3-Im)2 were pyrolyzed, yielding Co-N-F containing carbons, which are active toward electrochemical ORR.

Abstract
Introduction: Zeolites are natural or synthetic aluminosilicates, characterized by a regular and microporous crystalline structure that plays a particularly active role in neutralizing free radicals, screening UV rays and in the adsorption of toxins and heavy metals. Skin is one of the main areas for the accumulation of toxic substances released by environmental pollutants. The biological scavenger activity of zeolite opens a wide spectrum of applications in cosmetics and dermatology. Up to now, there is little evidence related to the use of natural zeolite in cosmetics. Aim: The purpose of this work was to evaluate the ability of zeolite to retain heavy metals in a new skin care formulation, in order to provide a proof of principle of its employment in the field of cosmetics. Materials and Methods: Taking the advantages of spiked samples, we studied the in vitro adsorption properties of zeolite in a new skin care formulation. The removal capacities of Cadmium, Lead, Chromium, Nickel and Cobalt were studied, using the inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). First of all, the better concentration of zeolite was defined, testing two different proportions of zeolite, from 1% to 3%, keeping all other components constant. Then, on the 3% formulation, the adsorption properties of each single metal were measured. Results and Conclusions: Our preliminary study demonstrated the selectivity of zeolite in retaining Cadmium (p < 0.0001), Nickel (p = 0.026), in a 3% zeolite-based formulation. This work provides a proof of principle of zeolite employment in the field of cosmetics. Based on the data collected, our work provides a scientific proof of principle of zeolite employment in the field of cosmetics. New and extensive research will be needed to explore all the potential benefits of zeolite.

Abstract
Several drug-delivery systems have been reported on and often successfully applied in cancer therapy. Cell-targeted delivery can reduce the overall toxicity of cytotoxic drugs and increase their effectiveness and selectivity. Besides traditional liposomal and micellar formulations, various nanocarrier systems have recently become the focus of developmental interest. This review discusses the preparation and targeting techniques as well as the properties of several liposome-, micelle-, solid-lipid nanoparticle-, dendrimer-, gold-, and magnetic-nanoparticle-based delivery systems. Approaches for targeted drug delivery and systems for drug release under a range of stimuli are also discussed.
