Abstract
Motivated by the remarkable innate characteristics of cells in living organisms, we have found that hybrid materials that combine bioorganisms with nanomaterials have significantly propelled advancements in industrial applications. However, the practical deployment of unmodified living entities is inherently limited due to their sensitivity to environmental fluctuations. To surmount these challenges, an efficacious strategy for the biomimetic mineralization of living organisms with nanomaterials has emerged, demonstrating extraordinary potential in biotechnology. Among them, innovative composites have been engineered by enveloping bioorganisms with a metal-organic framework (MOF) coating. This review systematically summarizes the latest developments in living cells/MOF-based composites, detailing the methodologies employed in structure fabrication and their diverse applications, such as bioentity preservation, sensing, catalysis, photoluminescence, and drug delivery. Moreover, the synergistic benefits arising from the individual compounds are elucidated. This review aspires to illuminate new prospects for fabricating living cells/MOF composites and concludes with a perspective on the prevailing challenges and impending opportunities for future research in this field.

Abstract
Recently, nanotechnology has shown great potential in the field of cancer therapy due to its ability to improve the stability and solubility and reduce side effects of drugs. The biomimetic mineralization strategy based on natural proteins and metal ions provides an innovative approach for the synthesis of nanoparticles. This strategy utilizes the unique properties of natural proteins and the mineralization ability of metal ions to combine nanoparticles through biomimetic mineralization processes, achieving the effective treatment of tumors. The precise control of the mineralization process between proteins and metal ions makes it possible to obtain nanoparticles with the ideal size, shape, and surface characteristics, thereby enhancing their stability and targeting ability in vivo. Herein, initially, we analyze the role of protein molecules in biomineralization and comprehensively review the functions, properties, and applications of various common proteins and metal particles. Subsequently, we systematically review and summarize the application directions of nanoparticles synthesized based on protein biomineralization in tumor treatment. Specifically, we discuss their use as efficient drug delivery carriers and role in mediating monotherapy and synergistic therapy using multiple modes. Also, we specifically review the application of nanomedicine constructed through biomimetic mineralization strategies using natural proteins and metal ions in improving the efficiency of tumor immunotherapy.

Abstract
Encapsulation of natural polymer pectin (Pec) into a zeolitic imidazolate framework-12 (ZIF-12) matrix via a simple chemical method toward anticancer agent gallic acid (GA) detection is reported in this work. GA, a natural phenol found in many food sources, has gained attention by its biological effects on the human body, such as an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory. Therefore, it is crucial to accurately and rapidly determine the GA level in humans. The encapsulation of Pec inside the ZIF-12 has been successfully confirmed from the physiochemical studies such as XRD, Raman, FTIR, and XPS spectroscopy along with morphological FESEM, BET, and HRTEM characterization. Under optimized conditions, the Pec@ZIF-12 composite exhibits wide linear range of 20 nM-250 μM with a detection limit of 2.2 nM; also, it showed excellent selectivity, stability, and reproducibility. Furthermore, the real sample analysis of food samples including tea, coffee, grape, and pomegranate samples shows exceptional recovery percentage in an unspiked manner. So far, there is little literature for encapsulating proteins, enzymes, metals, etc., that have been reported; here, we successfully encapsulated a natural polymer Pec inside the ZIF-12 cage. This encapsulation significantly enhanced the composite electrochemical performance, which could be seen from the overall results. All of these strongly suggest that the proposed Pec@ZIF-12 composite could be used for miniaturized device fabrication for the evaluation of GA in both home and industrial applications.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 461:132475.

Abstract
Suspended microorganisms often experience diminished efficacy in the bioremediation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). In this study, the potential of zeolite imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) and the eco-friendly modifier citric acid (CA) was harnessed to generate a biomimetic mineralized protective shell on the surface of Bacillus subtilis ZL09-26, resulting in an enhanced capability for PAH degradation. This investigation encompassed the integrated responses of B. subtilis ZL09-26 to ZIF-8 and ZIF-8-CA at both cellular and proteomic levels. The amalgamation of ZIF-8 and CA not only stimulated the growth and bolstered the cell viability of B. subtilis ZL09-26, but also counteracted the toxic effects of phenanthrene (PHE) stress. Remarkably, the bioremediation prowess of B. subtilis ZL09-26@ZIF-8-CA surpassed that of ZL09-26@ZIF-8 and ZL09-26, achieving a PHE removal rate of 94.14 % within 6 days. After undergoing five cycles, ZL09-26@ZIF-8-CA demonstrated an enduring PHE removal rate exceeding 83.31 %. A complex interplay of various metabolic pathways orchestrated cellular responses, enhancing PHE transport and degradation. These pathways encompassed direct PHE biodegradation, central carbon metabolism, oxidative phosphorylation, purine metabolism, and aminoacyl-tRNA biosynthesis. This study not only extends the potential applications of biomineralized organisms but also offers alternative strategies for effective contaminant management.

[PMID: 38234668 PMCID: PMC10790290 DOI: 10.22038/ijbms.2023.71892.15644] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2023] [Accepted: 09/19/2023] [Indexed: 01/19/2024]
Abstract
Objectives Zirconium-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) nanostructures, due to their capability of easy surface modification, are considered interesting structures for delivery. In the present study, the surfaces of UIO-66 and NH2-UIO-66 MOFs were modified by polyethyleneimine (PEI) 10000 Da, and their efficiency for plasmid delivery was evaluated. Materials and Methods Two different approaches, were employed to prepare surface-modified nanoparticles. The physicochemical characteristics of the resulting nanoparticles, as well as their transfection efficiency and cytotoxicity, were investigated on the A549 cell line. Results The sizes of DNA/nanocarriers for PEI-modified UIO-66 (PEI-UIO-66) were between 212-291 nm and 267-321 nm for PEI 6-bromohexanoic acid linked UIO-66 (PEI-HEX-UIO-66). The zeta potential of all was positive with the ranges of +16 to +20 mV and +23 to +26 mV for PEI-UIO-66 and PEI-HEX-UIO-66, respectively. Cellular assay results showed that the PEI linking method had a higher rate of gene transfection efficiency with minimal cytotoxicity than the wet impregnation method. The difference between transfection of modified nanoparticles compared to the PEI 10 kDa was not significant but the PEI-HEX-UIO-66 showed less cytotoxicity. Conclusion The present study suggested that the post-synthetic modification of MOFs with PEI 10000 Da through EDC/NHS+6-bromohexanoic acid reaction can be considered as an effective approach for modifying MOFs' structure in order to obtain nanoparticles with better biological function in the gene delivery process.

Abstract
In this study, a novel multifunctional nanocomposite wound dressing was developed, consisting of TEMPO-oxidized bacterial cellulose (TOBC) nanofibers functionalized with donut-like copper-based metal-organic frameworks (CuVB3 MOFs). These CuVB3 MOFs were constructed using copper nodes linked by vitamin B3 molecules, resulting in a copper nicotinate crystal structure as confirmed by X-ray diffraction. Electron microscopy confirmed the presence of donut-like microstructures with uniform element distribution in the synthesized MOFs. Through the incorporation of CuVB3 MOFs into the TOBC nanofibers, innovative TOBC-CuVB3 nanocomposites were created. Biocompatibility testing using the MTT assay demonstrated enhanced cell viability of over 115% for the TOBC-CuVB3 nanocomposite. Acridine Orange staining revealed a ratio of 88-92% live cells on the wound dressings. Furthermore, fibroblast cells cultured on TOBC-CuVB3 exhibited expanded morphologies with long filopodia. The agar diffusion method exhibited improved antibacterial activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains, correlating with increased CuVB3 concentration in the samples. In vitro cellular scratch assays demonstrated excellent wound healing potential, with a closure rate of over 98% for wounds treated with the TOBC-CuVB3 nanocomposite. These findings underscore the synergistic effects of copper, vitamin B3, and TOBC nanofibers in the wound healing process.

Abstract
Various binding modes of tunable metal organic frameworks (MOFs) and functional DNAzymes (Dzs) synergistically catalyze the emergence of abundant functional nanoplatforms. Given their serial variability in formation, structural designability, and functional controllability, Dzs@MOFs tend to be excellent building blocks for the precise "intelligent" manufacture of functional materials. To present a clear outline of this new field, this review systematically summarizes the progress of Dz integration into MOFs (MOFs@Dzs) through different methods, including various surface infiltration, pore encapsulation, covalent binding, and biomimetic mineralization methods. Atomic-level and time-resolved catalytic mechanisms for biosensing and imaging are made possible by the complex interplay of the distinct molecular structure of Dzs@MOF, conformational flexibility, and dynamic regulation of metal ions. Exploiting the precision of DNAzymes, MOFs@Dzs constructed a combined nanotherapy platform to guide intracellular drug synthesis, photodynamic therapy, catalytic therapy, and immunotherapy to enhance gene therapy in different ways, solving the problems of intracellular delivery inefficiency and insufficient supply of cofactors. MOFs@Dzs nanostructures have become excellent candidates for biosensing, bioimaging, amplification delivery, and targeted cancer gene therapy while emphasizing major advancements and seminal endeavors in the fields of biosensing (nucleic acid, protein, enzyme activity, small molecules, and cancer cells), biological imaging, and targeted cancer gene delivery and gene therapy. Overall, based on the results demonstrated to date, we discuss the challenges that the emerging MOFs@Dzs might encounter in practical future applications and briefly look forward to their bright prospects in other fields.

Abstract
Microwave ablation (MWA) is a promising minimally invasive therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the efficiency of MWA in treating HCC is evidently limited by the incomplete ablation of large tumors and tumors in high-risk locations. Here we designed an iron-based metal-organic framework nanomedicine (PFP-Apa-MOF) by loading perfluoropentane (PFP) and apatinib (Apa). After being absorbed by HCC, iron could induce ferroptosis. PFP could be activated into bubbles and act as an ultrasound agent for detecting the ablation margin. As an effective antiangiogenic drug, Apa could inhibit tumor residual growth after MWA. The high efficiency of PFP-Apa-MOF was fully demonstrated in vitro and in vivo. The results showed that MWA combined with PFP-Apa-MOF clearly enhanced the ablation efficiency, leading to apparent tumor inhibition, and increased tumor apoptosis and lipid peroxide. PFP-Apa-MOF could play a valuable role in enhancing MWA to achieve better therapeutic efficacy in HCC.

Abstract
PURPOSE BSA-biomineralized Gd nanoparticles (Gd@BSA NPs) have been recognized as promising nanoscale MR contrast agents. The aim of this study was to carry out a preclinical evaluation of these NPs in a middle-sized animal model (rabbits). METHODS New Zealand white rabbits were treated intravenously with Gd@BSA NPs (0.02 mmol Gd/kg) via a clinically-used high-pressure injector, with commercial Gd-diethylene triamine pentaacetate (Gd-DTPA)-injected group as control. Then MR angiography was performed according to the standard clinical protocol with a 3.0-T MR scanner. The SNR and CNR of the main arteries and branches were monitored. Pharmacokinetics and bioclearance were continuously evaluated in blood, urine, and feces. Gd deposition in vital organs was measured by ICP‒MS. Weight monitoring, HE staining, and blood biochemical analysis were also performed to comprehensively estimate systemic toxicity. RESULTS The ultrasmall Gd@BSA NPs (<6 nm) exhibited high stability and T1 relaxivity. Compared to Gd-DTPA, Gd@BSA NPs demonstrated superior vascular system imaging performance at ultralow doses, especially of the cardiac artery and other main branches, and exhibited a significantly higher SNR and CNR. Notably, the Gd@BSA NPs showed a shorter half-life in blood, less retention in organs, and improved biocompatibility. CONCLUSION The preclinical evaluations here demonstrated that Gd@BSA NPs are promising and advantageous MR CA candidates that can be used at a low dose with excellent MR imaging performance, thus suggesting its further clinical trials and applications.

Chen ZY, Zhou RB, Wang RD, Su SL, Zhou F. Dual-crosslinked network of polyacrylamide-carboxymethylcellulose hydrogel promotes osteogenic differentiation in vitro. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 234:123788. [PMID: 36822291 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.123788] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2022] [Revised: 02/16/2023] [Accepted: 02/17/2023] [Indexed: 02/23/2023]
Abstract
In our previous study, we successfully designed a dual-crosslinked network hydrogel by introducing the monomers acrylamide (AM), carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8), and alendronate (Aln). With the simultaneous presentation of physical and chemical crosslinks, the fabricated hydrogel with 10 % concentration of Aln@ZIF-8 (PAM-CMC-10%Aln@ZIF-8) exhibited excellent mechanical characteristics, high Aln loading efficiency (63.83 %), and a slow release period (6 d). These results demonstrate that PAM-CMC-10%Aln@ZIF-8 is a potential carrier for delaying Aln. In this study, we mainly focused on the biocompatibility and osteogenic ability of PAM-CMC-10%Aln@ZIF-8 in vitro, which is a continuation of our previous work. First, this study investigated the biocompatibility of dual-crosslinked hydrogels using calcein-AM/Propidium Iodide and cell counting kit-8. The morphology of rat bone mesenchymal stem cells was assessed using FITC-phalloidin/DAPI and vinculin immunostaining. Finally, osteogenic induction ability in vitro was assessed via alkaline phosphatase expression and alizarin red S staining, which was also confirmed using real-time PCR at the gene level and immunofluorescence at the protein level. The results indicated that the introduction of Aln enabled a dual-crosslinked hydrogel with superior biocompatibility and outstanding osteogenic differentiation ability in vitro, providing a solid foundation for subsequent animal experiments in vivo.

Abstract
The destruction of the ecological environment caused by human activity and modern industrial development is so severe that the water environment has become seriously polluted. Therefore, the exploration of high-efficiency absorbents has become one of the hot topics to solve this issue. Herein, a porous metal-organic framework [Cu(L)]·2.5H2O·0.5DMF (1, DMF = N,N-dimethylformamide) was successfully constructed using a rigid N-heterocyclic 5-(4-(1H,3,4-triazol-1-yl)phenyl)isophthalic acid (H2L) ligand. In particular, its structure includes the classical paddle-wheel-shaped secondary building units and two 1D channels with diameters of 7.2 and 3.2 Å, respectively. Complex 1 shows great sorption performance for methylene blue (MB) with a maximum capacity of 589 mg·g-1. The various influence factors, including the time, dye concentration, adsorbent dosage, and the pH of the solution, are investigated respectively. Also, the adsorption process is more in line with the first-order kinetics and the Langmuir isothermal adsorption model. The strong electrostatic force and intermolecular forces are primarily responsible for the remarkable adsorption ability of MB.

Abstract
Metal-organic complexes are one of the most studied materials in the last few decades, which are fabricated from organic ligands and metal ions to form robust frameworks with porous structures. In this work, iron-1,4-benzenedicarboxylic-polyethylene glycol (Fe-BDC-PEG) with a porous structure was successfully constructed by an iron(III) benzene dicarboxylate and polyethylene glycol diacid. The drug-delivery properties of the resultant Fe-BDC-PEG were tested for the loading and release of the 5-fluorouracil compound. The maximal loading capacity of Fe-BDC-PEG for 5-fluorouracil was determined to be 348.22 mg/g. The drug release of 5-fluorouracil-loaded Fe-BDC-PEG after 7 days was 92.69% and reached a maximum of 97.52% after 10 days. The 7 day and acute oral toxicity of Fe-BDC-PEG in mice were studied. The results show that no reasonable change or mortality was observed upon administration of Fe-BDC-PEG complex in mice at 10 g/kg body weight. When the uptake of Fe-BDC-PEG particles in mice was continued for 7 consecutive days, the mortality, feed consumption, body weight, and daily activity were negligibly changed.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are crystalline porous materials with periodic network structures formed by self-assembly of metal ions and organic ligands. Attributed to their tunable composition and pore size, ultrahigh surface area (1000-7000 m2/g) and pore volume (1.04-4.40 cm3/g), easy surface modification, appropriate physiological stability, etc., MOFs have been widely used in biomedical applications in the last two decades, especially for the delivery of bioactive agents. In the initial stage, MOFs were widely used to load small molecule drugs with ultra-high doses. Whereafter, more recent work has focused on the load of biomacromolecules, such as nucleic acids and proteins. Over the past years, we have devoted extensive effort to investigate the function of MOF materials for bioactive agent delivery. MOFs can be used not only as an intelligent nanocarrier to deliver or protect bioactive agents but also as an activator for their release or activation in response to the different microenvironments. Altogether, this review details the current progress of MOF materials for bioactive agent delivery and looks into their future development.

Abstract
Enzymes are a class of natural catalysts with high efficiency, specificity, and selectivity unmatched by their synthetic counterparts and dictate a myriad of reactions that constitute various cascades in living cells. The development of suitable supports is significant for the immobilization of structurally flexible enzymes, enabling biomimetic transformation in the extracellular environment. Accordingly, porous organic frameworks, including metal organic frameworks (MOFs), covalent organic frameworks (COFs) and hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks (HOFs), have emerged as ideal supports for the immobilization of enzymes because of their structural features including ultrahigh surface area, tailorable porosity, and versatile framework compositions. Specially, organic framework-encased enzymes have shown significant enhancement in stability and reusability, and their tailorable pore opening provides a gatekeeper-like effect for guest sieving, which is beneficial for mimicking intracellular biocatalysis processes. This immobilization technique brings new insight into the development of next-generation enzyme materials and shows huge potential in healthcare applications, such as biomarker diagnosis, biostorage, and cancer and antibacterial therapies. In this review, we describe the state-of-the-art strategies for the structural immobilization of enzymes using the well-explored MOFs and burgeoning COFs and HOFs as scaffolds, with special emphasis on how these porous framework-confined technologies can provide a favorable microenvironment for mimicking natural biocatalysis. Subsequently, advanced characterization techniques for enzyme conformation, the effect of the confined microenvironment on the activity of enzymes, and the emerging healthcare applications will be surveyed.

Abstract
With the development of society, traumatic bone defects caused by accidents, diseases and surgeries have become common, eventually resulting in an increase in bone defects. The treatment of bone defects is characterized by a long period of treatment, high cost and uncontrollable outcomes. Also, it results in complications such as infection and bone discontinuity. Hence, due to this situation, the physical, mental and financial aspects of the patient are severely affected. What's more, such outcomes pose a challenge to orthopaedic surgeons. As a result, bone therapy and bone repair have become a hot topic of interest. In repairing bone defects, materials other than autogenous bone are still unable to provide good biocompatibility, osteogenesis, osteoconductivity and osteoinduction properties at the same time. In addition, the scarcity of autologous bone sources has forced the search for new autologous bone replacement materials. Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) are a new class of developed functional materials that have been widely used in the biomedical field during the recent years due to their porous nature, large specific surface area and diverse structures. With the progress in the investigation into bone treatment and repair, more and more investigators are using MOFs in bone therapy and bone repair. With these viewpoints, in the present perspective, the use of MOFs in bone therapy and bone repair has been summarized, and an insight into the future of MOFs in bone therapy and bone repair has been provided.

Abstract
The strategy for dual drug-loaded nanomedicine with targeting properties was always complex. Herein, a novel strategy for the preparation of metal-organic particle-based nanomedicine has been developed, and combretastatin A4 (CA4) and mitoxantrone (MIT) loaded MOPs (CMMOPs) have been obtained. In this system, using merely Cu(II) as a bridge to connect and coordinate with the dual drugs has resulted in the CMMOPs possessing a fairly high drug load of almost 90%. Moreover, the coordination between Cu(II) and the drugs was stable at physiological pH but easily cleavable in the tumor acidic microenvironment, which would provide a good targeting property for CMMOPs. The in vivo experiments indicated that CMMOPs possessed a significantly enhanced antitumor efficiency with negligible side effects. The results suggest that CMMOPs could be a potential anticancer formulation for tumor-targeted drug delivery.

Sensitization of glioblastoma cancer cells to radiotherapy and magnetic hyperthermia by targeted temozolomide-loaded magnetite tri-block copolymer nanoparticles as a nanotheranostic agent. Life Sci 2022; 306:120729. [PMID: 35753439 DOI: 10.1016/j.lfs.2022.120729] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/15/2022] [Revised: 06/09/2022] [Accepted: 06/20/2022] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
AIMS Recently, the development of new strategies in the treatment and diagnosis of cancer cells such as thermo-radiation-sensitizer and theranostic agents have received a great deal of attention. In this work, folic acid-conjugated temozolomide-loaded SPION@PEG-PBA-PEG nanoparticles (TMZ-MNP-FA NPs) were proposed for use as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents and to enhance the cytotoxic effects of hyperthermia and radiotherapy. MAIN METHODS Nanoparticles were synthesized by the Nano-precipitation method and their characteristics were determined by dynamic light scattering (DLS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray powder diffraction (XRD). To evaluate the thermo-radio-sensitization effects of NPs, C6 cells were treated with nanoparticles for 24 h and then exposed to 6-MV X-ray radiation. After radiotherapy, the cells were subjected to an alternating magnetic field (AMF) hyperthermia. The therapeutic potential was assessed using clonogenic assay, ROS generation measurement, flow cytometry assay, and qRT-PCR analysis. Also, the diagnostic properties of the nanoparticles were assessed by MRI. KEY FINDINGS MRI scanning indicated that nanoparticles accumulated in C6 cells could be tracked by T2-weighted MR imaging. Colony formation assay proved that TMZ-MNP-FA NPs enhanced the anti-proliferation effects of AMF by 1.94-fold compared to AMF alone (P < 0.0001). Moreover, these NPs improved the radiation effects with a dose enhancement factor of 1.65. All results showed that the combination of carrier-based chemotherapy with hyperthermia and radiotherapy caused a higher anticancer efficacy than single- or two-modality treatments. SIGNIFICANCE The nanoparticles advanced in this study can be proposed as the promising theranostic and thermo-radio-sensitizer platform for the diagnosis and tri-modal synergistic cancer therapy.

Abstract
Natural enzyme-based catalytic cascades hold great promise for cancer therapy, but their clinical utility is greatly hindered by the loss of their functions during in vivo delivery. Herein, a plasmonic trienzyme-integrated metal-organic framework (plasEnMOF) nanoplatform with high-efficiency enzyme cascades is reported for synergistic starvation, chemodynamic, and plasmonic hyperthermia trimodal therapy of hypoxic tumors. These plasEnMOFs are created with encapsulation of near-infrared-II (NIR-II) plasmonic Au nanorods and natural enzymes-catalase (CAT), glucose oxidase (GOx), and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) within zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) MOFs. As a trienzyme cascade system, the plasEnMOFs effectively deplete intratumoral glucose and generate toxic reactive oxygen species (ROS) for starvation therapy and chemodynamic therapy (CDT) combined with the plasmonic hyperthermia therapy (PHT). The enhanced glucose consumption and ROS generation by the NIR-II plasmonic photothermal effect are also demonstrated. The improved chemo- and thermotolerance of the encapsulated natural enzymes within the protective ZIF-8 MOFs are evidenced. With the integrated enzyme cascades and NIR-II photothermal effects, these plasEnMOFs are demonstrated with exceptional therapeutic effects on 4T1 xenograft tumors through the combined starvation/CDT/PHT therapy. This work highlights the superiority of natural enzyme cascade systems integrated in plasmonic MOFs for high-efficiency enzymatic cancer therapy.

Abstract
Due to the limitations resulting from hypoxia and the self-aggregation of photosensitizers, photodynamic therapy (PDT) has not been applied clinically to treat most types of solid tumors. Zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) is a common metal-organic framework that has ultra-high porosity, an adjustable structure, good biocompatibility, and pH-induced biodegradability. In this review, we summarize the applications of ZIF-8 and its derivatives in PDT. This review is divided into two parts. In the first part, we summarize progress in the application of ZIF-8 to enhance PDT and realize theranostics. We discuss the use of ZIF-8 to avoid the self-aggregation of photosensitizers, alleviate hypoxia, increase the PDT penetration depth, and combine PDT with multi-modal imaging. In the second part, we summarize how ZIF-8 can achieve synergistic PDT with other anti-tumor therapies, including chemotherapy, photothermal therapy, chemodynamic therapy, starvation therapy, protein therapy, gene therapy, and immunotherapy. Finally, we highlight the challenges that must be overcome for ZIF-8 to be widely applied in PDT. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first review of ZIF-8-based nanoplatforms for PDT.

Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14101997. [PMID: 35631883 PMCID: PMC9146912 DOI: 10.3390/polym14101997] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/15/2022] [Revised: 05/10/2022] [Accepted: 05/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
An effective strategy was developed to fabricate novel lanthanide ions–pyromellitic acid–methoxy poly(ethylene glycol) (Ln-PMA-MPEG) nano-assemblies. The amphiphilic partially esterified derivative (PMA-MPEG) of pyromellitic acid with methoxy poly(ethylene glycol) was designed and synthesized via the coupling reaction. Ln-PMA-MPEG nano-assemblies were rapidly fabricated using PMA-MPEG as a polymer ligand with Eu3+ ions or mixed Eu3+/Tb3+ ions through biomimetic mineralization in neutral aqueous systems. The size of the as-prepared materials could be designed in the range 80–200 nm with a uniform distribution. The materials were readily dispersed in various solvents and displayed visible color variations and different photoluminescent properties for solvent recognition. The mixed Eu/Tb-PMA-MPEG nanomaterials were investigated as ratiometric sensors for the detection of trace water in DMF and Fe3+ ions in aqueous solutions. The sensor materials can quantitatively detect trace water in DMF from 0% to 10% (v/v). The resultant materials also display a strong correlation between the double luminescence intensity ratios (ITb/IEu) and Fe3+ concentration, with a good linear detection concentration in the range of 0–0.24 mM and a limit of detection of 0.46 μM, and other metal ions did not interfere with the sensing mechanism for Fe3+ ions. The novel nano-assemblies have potential applications as ratiometric fluorescent nanosensors in the chemical industry as well as in biomedical fields.

Abstract
Immunotherapy, including checkpoint blockade immunotherapy (CBI), has witnessed remarkable progress in cancer therapy. Nonetheless, significant obstacles to successful immunotherapy remain. Notably, tumour non-responsiveness to immunotherapy due to immunosuppressive tumour microenvironments (TMEs). To revitalize immunosuppressive TMEs various therapeutic strategies have been reported by researchers. Immunostimulatory adjuvant treatments (IAT) are the most widely investigated ones. Due to their biodegradability, compositional tenability, and inherent immune effectiveness, nanoscale metal-organic frameworks (nMOFs) with metal nodes and organic linkers can be used as versatile nanomaterials for IAT. This review summarizes the progress in nMOF-based tumour immunotherapy in promoting immunostimulatory TMEs. And in combination with other cancer immunotherapies to increase tumour immunogenicity and antitumor efficacy. Finally, the challenges of nMOFs in tumour immunotherapy are also discussed.

Abstract
Modulating the precise self-assembly of functional biomacromolecules is a critical challenge in biotechnology. Herein, functional biomacromolecule-assembled hierarchical hybrid nanoarchitectures in a spatially controlled fashion are synthesized, achieving the biorecognition behavior and signal amplification in the immunoassay simultaneously. Biomacromolecules with sequential assembly on the scaffold through the biomineralization process show significantly enhanced stability, bioactivity, and utilization efficiency, allowing tuning of their functions by modifying their size and composition. The hierarchically hybrid nanoarchitectures show great potential in construction of ultrasensitive immunoassay platforms, achieving a three order-of-magnitude increase in sensitivity. Notably, the well-designed HRP@Ab2 nanoarchitectures allow for optical immunoassays with a detection range from picogram mL-1 to microgram mL-1 on demand, providing great promise for quantitative analysis of both low-abundance and high-residue targets for biomedical applications.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) could serve as multifunctional nanoplatforms to load small-molecule drugs and enzyme-mimicking nanoparticles (NPs) with a high efficiency for combined cancer therapy. Herein, we have prepared novel 2D Cu-tetrakis (4-carboxyphenyl) porphyrin (TCPP) nanosheets with an average thickness of 1.2 ± 0.1 nm using Cu2O nanocubes (50 nm) as a template and solid copper ion supplier. Cu2O nanocubes can be consumed and hybridized with the obtained Cu-TCPP, depending on the molar ratio of Cu2O and TCPP linker. The resultant Cu2O/Cu-TCPP could serve as nanoplatforms for co-loading of Pt and Au NPs to construct multifunctional Cu2O/Cu-TCPP/(Pt-Au) nanomedicines, which showed a superior anticancer effect via multiple therapeutic modes. For instance, Cu(II)-TCPP can produce 1O2 in the presence of acidic H2O2 by the Russell mechanism and the intrinsic Cu(I) ions (derived from the residual Cu2O) could mediate a Fenton-like reaction in tumorous tissues to generate toxic hydroxyl radicals (•OH). Moreover, the loaded Pt NPs with catalase (CAT)-mimic activity could decompose hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) into O2 within the tumor cells, increasing the local O2 concentration, modulating the tumorous hypoxia atmosphere, and promoting the O2-dependent glucose oxidation reaction. Furthermore, Au NPs with glucose oxidase (GOx)-mimic activity could accelerate the consumption of glucose and cut nutrient supply to induce starvation therapy. Consequently, our designed 2D MOF-based therapeutic nanomedicines would be a promising candidate for future smart and combined cancer therapy.

Silk fibroin-capped metal-organic framework for tumor-specific redox dyshomeostasis treatment synergized by deoxygenation-driven chemotherapy. Acta Biomater 2022; 138:545-560.

Abstract
Disturbance in redox homeostasis always leads to oxidative damages to cellular components, which inhibits cancer cell proliferation and causes tumor regression. Therefore, synergistic effects arising from cellular redox imbalance together with other treatment modalities are worth further investigation. Herein, a metal-organic framework nanosystem (NMOF) based on coordination between Fe (III) and 4,4,4,4-(porphine-5,10,15,20-tetrayl) tetrakis (benzoic acid) (TCPP) was synthesized through a one-pot method. After surface capping of silk fibroin (SF) to form NMOF@SF nanoparticles (NPs), this nanoplatform can serve as an eligible nanocarrier to deliver tirapazamine (TPZ), a hypoxia-activated precursor. As-developed NS@TPZ (NST) NPs remained inactive in the normal tissue, whereas became highly active upon endocytosis by tumor cells via glutathione (GSH)-mediated reduction of Fe (III) into Fe (II), further enabling Fe (II)-mediated chemodynamic therapy (CDT). Upon optical laser irradiation, TCPP-mediated photodynamic therapy (PDT) coordinated with CDT to aggravate intracellular oxidative stress. Thus, such reactive oxygen species accumulation and GSH deprivation contributed to a deleterious redox dyshomeostasis. On the other hand, local deoxygenation caused by PDT can increase the cytotoxicity of released TPZ, which significantly improved the integral therapeutic effectiveness relying on the combined redox balance disruption and bioreductive chemotherapy. More importantly, severe immunogenic cell death can be triggered by the combinatorial treatment modalities and the presence of SF, which facilitated an almost complete tumor eradication in vivo. Taken together, this paradigm provides an insightful strategy for tumor-specific redox dyshomeostasis treatment synergized by deoxygenation-driven chemotherapy, which can remarkably enhance antitumor efficacy with negligible adverse effects. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Recently, silk fibroin (SF) has been demonstrated to be effective in activating antitumor immune system through polarization tumor-associated macrophages into M1 subtype. However, engineering SF into multifunctional nanocomposites is seldom reported for combination tumor therapy. In another aspect, disruption of redox homeostasis becomes increasingly attractive for tumor suppression with high clinical-relevance. Herein, we established a newfashioned NMOF nanosystem, named as NST, for tumor-specific redox dyshomeostasis treatment synergized by deoxygenation-driven chemotherapy. This platform takes advantages of Fe2+/Fe3+ coupled Fenton-like reaction and GSH depletion, as well as TCPP-mediated photosensitization for admirable redox unbalancing, which further initiates hypoxia-relevant toxin of TPZ for chemotherapy. Finally, combinatorial treatments and the presence of SF could trigger ICD for rendering a complete tumor eradication in vivo.

Abstract
Here, Zirconium metal-organic frameworks @ gold (ZrMOF @ Au) cluster architectures have been fabricated and then functionalized with two fluorescent dyes (Quasar [QS] and Cyanine5.5 [Cy5.5]) through deoxyribonucleic acid hybridization, to form a fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) encoded ZrMOF @ Au-QS/Cy5.5 complex. In the presence of the target intracellular microRNA (miR)-21, the fluorescence of Cy5.5 at 705 nm (F705 ) decreases and the fluorescence of QS at 665 nm (F665 ) increases when Cy5.5 is released from the surface of ZrMOF @ Au-QS/Cy5.5. The change in the fluorescence ratio (F705 /F665 ) shows an outstanding linear range of 0.006-67.9 amol/ngRNA , and the limit of detection is 4.51 zmol/ngRNA in living cells. The high ratio loading of nucleic acid on surface of ZrMOF @ Au cluster and two fluorescence encoded signal enables better sensitivity and reliability. Zeptomolar sensitivity and good linearity against target affords distinct imaging-based monitoring of the cancer marker miR-21 both in living cells and in vivo. At the same time, the architecture displays remarkable photothermal conversion efficiency (53.7%) and gives rise to outstanding therapy ability in vivo. This strategy offers new avenues for the intelligent quantification of miRNAs for simultaneous diagnoses and treatments of early-stage cancers.

Abstract
Bacteria and their derivatives (membrane vesicles, MVs) exhibit great advantages for targeting hypoxic tumor cores, strong penetration ability and activating immune responses, holding great potential as auspicious candidates for therapeutic and drug-delivery applications. However, the safety issues and low therapeutic efficiency by single administration still need to be solved. To further optimize their performance and to utilize their natural abilities, scientists have strived to modify bacteria with new moieties on their surface while preserving their advantages. The aim of this review is to give a comprehensive overview of a non-genetic engineering modification strategy that can be used to optimize the bacteria with nanomaterials and the design strategy that can be used to optimize MVs for better targeted therapy. Here, the advantages and disadvantages of these processes and their applicability for the development of bacteria-related delivery system as antitumor therapeutic agents are discussed. The prospect and the challenges of the above targeted delivery system are also proposed.

Abstract
Most carrier-based nano drug delivery systems (nano-DDSs) are subjected to complex preparation or purification processes, metabolic instability and potential systemic toxicity. To overcome these issues, it is urgent to develop a multifunctional carrier-free nano-DDS that can be fabricated by a simple approach for enhanced anticancer efficacy. In this work, the carrier-free supramolecular nanoprodrug (CF SNPD) based on lactose (Lac) functionalized dimeric camptothecin (CPT) was developed, in which Lac and CPT were conjugated by the aromatized thioacetal (ATA, a reactive oxygen species (ROS)-responsive bond). The obtained Lac-ATA-CPT2 prodrug and the photosensitizer Chlorin e6 (Ce6) formed CF SNPD (denoted as Ce6@Lac-ATA-CPT2 NPs) in water by supramolecular self-assembly. The design of dimeric CPT endowed Ce6@Lac-ATA-CPT2 NPs with ultrahigh drug-loading capacity (up to 94%) and excellent stability. The Lac-functionalized CF SNPD displayed active specific targetability to HepG2 cells resulting from the carbohydrate-protein interactions. Furthermore, the fluorescence signal of Ce6 facilitated the precise tracking and localization of Ce6@Lac-ATA-CPT2 NPs within the cell. Meanwhile, the ROS generated by Ce6 not only cleaved ATA linker to trigger on-demand CPT release, but also exhibited a killing effect on tumor cells, enabling synergistic therapy via CPT-mediated chemotherapy (CT) and Ce6-induced photodynamic therapy (PDT). Therefore, the multifunctional CF SNPD may be one of the promising therapeutic options for liver cancer.

[PMID: 34815800 PMCID: PMC8581412 DOI: 10.7150/thno.65399] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2021] [Accepted: 10/06/2021] [Indexed: 01/02/2023] Open
Abstract
Rationale: Glucose oxidase (GOx)-based biocatalytic nanoreactors can cut off the energy supply of tumors for starvation therapy and deoxygenation-activated chemotherapy. However, these nanoreactors, including mesoporous silica, calcium phosphate, metal-organic framework, or polymer nanocarriers, cannot completely block the reaction of GOx with glucose in the blood, inducing systemic toxicity from hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and anoxia. The low enzyme loading capacity can reduce systemic toxicity but limits its therapeutic effect. Here, we describe a real 'ON/OFF' intelligent nanoreactor with a core-shell structure (GOx + tirazapamine (TPZ))/ZIF-8@ZIF-8 modified with the red cell membrane (GTZ@Z-RBM) for cargo delivery. Methods: GTZ@Z-RBM nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared by the co-precipitation and epitaxial growth process under mild conditions. The core-shell structure loaded with GOx and TPZ was characterized for hydrate particle size and surface charge. The GTZ@Z-RBM NPs morphology, drug, and GOx loading/releasing abilities, system toxicity, multimodal synergistic therapy, and tumor metastasis suppression were investigated. The in vitro and in vivo outcomes of GTZ@Z-RBM NPs were assessed in 4T1 breast cancer cells. Results: GTZ@Z-RBM NPs could spatially isolate the enzyme from glucose in a physiological environment, reducing systemic toxicity. The fabricated nanoreactor with high enzyme loading capacity and good biocompatibility could deliver GOx and TPZ to the tumors, thereby exhausting glucose, generating H2O2, and aggravating hypoxic microenvironment for starvation therapy, DNA damage, and deoxygenation-activated chemotherapy. Significantly, the synergistic therapy effectively suppressed the breast cancer metastasis in mice and prolonged life without systemic toxicity. The in vitro and in vivo results provided evidence that our biomimetic nanoreactor had a powerful synergistic cascade effect in treating breast cancer. Conclusion: GTZ@Z-RBM NPs can be used as an 'ON/OFF' intelligent nanoreactor to deliver GOx and TPZ for multimodal synergistic therapy and tumor metastasis suppression.

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

Abstract
Starvation therapy based on glucose oxidase (GOx) has attracted considerable attention in tumor treatment. However, several shortcomings severely hinder its further applications, including limited therapeutic efficacy, poor enzyme stability, and potential side effects. Herein, a strategy of cascade reaction-enhanced combined therapy based on the oxygen-evolving multifunctional nanoreactors is proposed for tumor therapy. The GOx and catalase (CAT) are immobilized in metal-organic frameworks by biomimetic mineralization to improve their stability via spatial confinement. The GOx can consume glucose, reduce ATP levels, and down-regulate the expression of heat shock proteins, which consequently sensitize tumor cells to indocyanine green-based photothermal therapy. Furthermore, the hydrogen peroxide generated by GOx as well as overexpressed in tumor can be decomposed by CAT and continuously generate oxygen, which further enhance the efficacy of oxygen-dependent starvation therapy and photodynamic therapy. The nanoreactors are directly delivered to the superficial tumor by microneedles, achieving efficient tumor accumulation and dramatically strengthened antitumor efficacy without obvious side effects, which provides a valuable paradigm for the application of cascade reaction-based combined therapy.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), comprised of organic ligands and metal ions/metal clusters via coordinative bonds are highly porous, crystalline materials. Their tunable porosity, chemical composition, size and shape, and easy surface functionalization make this large family more and more popular for drug delivery. There is a growing interest over the last decades in the design of engineered MOFs with controlled sizes for a variety of biomedical applications. This article presents an overall review and perspectives of MOFs-based drug delivery systems (DDSs), starting with the MOFs classification adapted for DDSs based on the types of constituting metals and ligands. Then, the synthesis and characterization of MOFs for DDSs are developed, followed by the drug loading strategies, applications, biopharmaceutics and quality control. Importantly, a variety of representative applications of MOFs are detailed from a point of view of applications in pharmaceutics, diseases therapy and advanced DDSs. In particular, the biopharmaceutics and quality control of MOFs-based DDSs are summarized with critical issues to be addressed. Finally, challenges in MOFs development for DDSs are discussed, such as biostability, biosafety, biopharmaceutics and nomenclature.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks are a class of new and promising anti-cancer materials. MOFs with adjustable pore size, large specific surface area, diverse structure, and excellent chemical and physical properties make them a class of effective protection carriers for anti-cancer substances. This review is centered on the core point of "anti-cancer" and discusses MOFs' research progress in anti-cancer therapies. Firstly, we provided readers with the different types of MOFs, their preparation strategies and the resulting structures. Then, different MOF composites and their biological applications were systematically presented. The specificity of biomolecules endows MOFs with broader anti-cancer applications, while MOFs can protect the drugs and biomolecules to make the best of a challenging situation. Finally, we elucidated a comprehensive overview of the biological applications of MOFs, including research hotspots as drug delivery and biomolecule carriers. Besides, we looked forward to the future developments of MOFs in the field of anti-cancer therapies. As a class of novel materials, the anti-cancer applications of MOFs are extended through the combination of different materials and different methods to improve their efficacy.

Abstract
Porous nanomaterials with high surface area, tunable porosity, and large mesopores have recently received particular attention in cancer therapy and imaging. Introduction of additional pores to nanostructures not only endows the tunability of optoelectronic and optical features optimal for tumor treatment, but also modulates the loading capacity and controlled release of therapeutic agents. In recognition, increasing efforts have been made to fabricate various porous nanomaterials and explore their potentials in oncology applications. Thus, a systematic and comprehensive summary is necessary to overview the recent progress, especially in last ten years, on the development of various mesoporous nanomaterials for cancer treatment as theranostic agents. While outlining their individual synthetic mechanisms after a brief introduction of the structures and properties of porous nanomaterials, the current review highlighted the representative applications of three main categories of porous nanostructures (organic, inorganic, and organic-inorganic nanomaterials). In each category, the synthesis, representative examples, and interactions with tumors were further detailed. The review was concluded with deliberations on the key challenges and future outlooks of porous nanostructures in cancer theranostics.

Abstract
Instinctive hierarchically biomineralized structures of various organisms, such as eggs, algae, and magnetotactic bacteria, afford extra protection and distinct performance, which endow fragile organisms with a tenacious ability to adapt and survive. However, spontaneous formation of hybrid materials is difficult for most organisms in nature. Rapid development of chemistry and materials science successfully obtained the combinations of organisms with nanomaterials by biomimetic mineralization thus demonstrating the reproduction of the structures and functions and generation of novel functions that organisms do not possess. The rational design of biomaterial-organism hybridization can control biological recognition, interactions, and metabolism of the organisms. Thus, nanomaterial-organism hybrids represent a next generation of organism engineering with great potential biomedical applications. This review summarizes recent advances in material-directed organism engineering and is mainly focused on biomimetic mineralization technologies and their outstanding biomedical applications. Three representative types of biomimetic mineralization are systematically introduced, including external mineralization, internal mineralization, and genetic engineering mineralization. The methods involving hybridization of nanomaterials and organisms based on biomimetic mineralization strategies are described. These strategies resulted in applications of various nanomaterial-organism hybrids with multiplex functions in cell engineering, cancer treatment, and vaccine improvement. Unlike classical biological approaches, this material-based bioregulation is universal, effective, and inexpensive. In particular, instead of traditional medical solutions, the integration of nanomaterials and organisms may exploit novel strategies to solve current biomedical problems. This article is categorized under: Implantable Materials and Surgical Technologies > Nanomaterials and Implants Therapeutic Approaches and Drug Discovery > Nanomedicine for Oncologic Disease Therapeutic Approaches and Drug Discovery > Nanomedicine for Infectious Disease.

Abstract
Significant progress has been made in the use of phycocyanin (PC) as a photosensitizer (PS) agent for photodynamic therapy (PDT). The clinical use of PC, however, has been limited by its poor stability, unfavorable pharmacokinetics, limited tumor cell uptake, and the hypoxic nature of the tumor microenvironment. In this study, a novel biomimetic mineralization approach is described for encapsulating PC using zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8), after which MPEG2000 -COOH is further utilized as an anchor on the ZIF/PC complex in order to yield MPEG2000 -ZIF/PC composites (PMs). These PMs are then used as a stable reinforced PS for PDT, effectively improving the intracellular delivery of this protein PS. In contrast to prior studies that have sought to overcome intratumoral hypoxia via increasing oxygen delivery to the tumor site, the mitochondrial complex I inhibitor papaverine (PPV) is instead utilized to reduce intratumor oxygen consumption in an effort to augment the PDT efficacy of the PMs. It is found that this combination treatment strategy markedly improves the antitumor properties of these PMs both in vitro and in patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models without inducing significant side effects. It is therefore proposed that the "armor-plating" of protein PS agents with ZIF-8 in combination with PPV may be a promising approach to precision medicine-mediated tumor treatment.

Abstract
This article aims to provide an overview of the studies focused on using coordination compounds as antiviral agents against different types of viruses. We present various strategies so far used to this end. This article is divided into two sections. The first collects the series of designed antiviral drugs based on coordination compounds. This approach has been developed for many years, starting from the 70s with the discovery of cis-platin (cis-DDP). It has been mainly focused on studying the synergistic effect of a wide variety of new compounds obtained by combining metal ions with organic antiviral ligands. Then, we collect various strategies analyzing the coordination compounds interacting with viruses using different processes such as wrapping viruses, rapid detection of RNA or DNA virus, or nanocarriers. These recent and novel insights help to study viruses from other points of view, allowing to measure their physical and chemical properties. We also highlight a section in which the issue of viruses from a disinfection viewpoint is addressed, using coordination compounds as a tool able to control the release of antiviral and biocide agents. This is an emerging and promising field but this approach is actually little developed. We finally provide a section with a general conclusion and perspectives.

Abstract
Biomolecule carrier structures have attracted substantial interest owing to their potential utilizations in the field of bone tissue engineering. In this study, MOF-embedded electrospun fiber scaffold for the controlled release of BMP-6 was developed for the first time, to enrich bone regeneration efficacy. The scaffolds were achieved by first, one-pot rapid crystallization of BMP-6 encapsulated ZIF-8 nanocrystals-as a novel carrier for growth factor molecules- and then electrospinning of the blending solution composed of poly (ε-caprolactone) and BMP-6 encapsulated ZIF-8 nanocrystals. BMP-6 molecule encapsulation efficiency for ZIF-8 nanocrystals was calculated as 98%. The in-vitro studies showed that, the bioactivity of BMP-6 was preserved and the release lasted up to 30 days. The release kinetics fitted the Korsmeyer-Peppas model exhibiting a pseudo-Fickian behavior. The in-vitro osteogenesis studies revealed the superior effect of sustained release of BMP-6 towards osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 pre-osteoblasts. In-vivo studies also revealed that the sustained slow release of BMP-6 was responsible for the generation of well-mineralized, new bone formation in a rat cranial defect. Our results proved that; MOF-carriers embedded in electrospun scaffolds can be used as an effective platform for bone regeneration in bone tissue engineering applications. The proposed approach can easily be adapted for various growth factor molecules for different tissue engineering applications.

Biomineralization is a common process in organisms to produce hard biomaterials by combining inorganic ions with biomacromolecules. Multifunctional nanoplatforms are developed based on the mechanism of biomineralization in many biomedical applications. In the past few years, biomineralization-based nanoparticle drug delivery systems for the cancer treatment have gained a lot of research attention due to the advantages including simple preparation, good biocompatibility, degradability, easy modification, versatility, and targeting. In this review, the research trends of biomineralization-based nanoparticle drug delivery systems and their applications in cancer therapy are summarized. This work aims to promote future researches on cancer therapy based on biomineralization. Rational design of nanoparticle drug delivery systems can overcome the bottleneck in the clinical transformation of nanomaterials. At the same time, biomineralization has also provided new research ideas for cancer treatment, i.e., targeted therapy, which has significantly better performance.

Abstract
Dual-functional theranostics are powerful tools that can allow for the in-field understanding of cancer pathology, yet their use is held back by the paucity of suitable theranostics for living systems. Moreover, typical in vitro screening conditions for probe molecules do not necessarily generate candidates that can function effectively in the natural in cellulo environment, limiting their follow-up use in living systems. We introduce herein a general strategy for the development of an iridium(iii) theranostic by grafting a well-known inhibitor as a "binding unit" onto an iridium(iii) complex precursor as a "signaling unit". To further optimize their emissive properties, we explored the effect of imaging behavior by incorporating different substituents onto the parental "signaling unit". This design concept was validated by a series of tailored iridium(iii) theranostics 2a-2h for the visualization and inhibition of EGFR in living cancer cells. By comprehensively assessing the theranostic potency of 2a-2h in both in vitro and in cellulo contexts, probe 2f containing electron-donating methoxy groups on the "signaling unit" was discovered to be the most promising candidate theranostic with desirable photophysical/chemical properties. Probe 2f selectively bound to EGFR in vitro and in cellulo, enabling it to selectively discriminate living EGFR-overexpressing cancer cells from normal cells that express low levels of EGFR with an "always-on" luminescence signal output. In particular, its long-lived lifetime enabled its luminescence signal to be readily distinguished from the interfering fluorescence of organic dyes by using time-resolved techniques. Complex 2f simultaneously visualized and inhibited EGFR in a dose-dependent manner, leading to a reduction in the phosphorylation of downstream proteins ERK and MEK, and inhibition of the activity of downstream transcription factor AP1. Notably, complex 2f is comparable to the parental EGFR inhibitor 1b, in terms of both inhibitory activity against EGFR and cytotoxicity against EGFR-overexpressing cancer cells. This tailored dual-functional iridium(iii) theranostic toolkit provides an alternative strategy for the personalized diagnosis and treatment of cancers.

Abstract
Nanostructured manganese dioxide (MnO2) has attracted extensive attention in the field of anticancer applications. As we all know, the tumor microenvironment is usually characterized by a high glutathione (GSH) concentration, overproduced hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), acidity, and hypoxia, which affect the efficacy of many traditional treatments such as chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgery. Fortunately, as one kind of redox-active nanomaterial, nanostructured MnO2 has many excellent properties such as strong oxidation ability, excellent catalytic activity, and good biodegradability. It can be used effectively in diagnosis and treatment when it reacts with some harmful substances in the tumor site. It can not only enhance the therapeutic effect but also adjust the tumor microenvironment. Therefore, it is necessary to present the recent achievements and progression of nanostructured MnO2 for anticancer applications, including preparation methods, diagnosis, and treatment. Special attention was paid to photodynamic therapy (PDT), bioimaging and cancer diagnosis (BCD), and drug delivery systems (DDS). This review is expected to provide helpful guidance on further research of nanostructured MnO2 for anticancer applications.

Abstract
The incorporation of new modalities into chemotherapy greatly enhances the anticancer efficacy combining the merits of each treatment, showing promising potentials in clinical translations. Herein, a hybrid nanomedicine (Au/FeMOF@CPT NPs) is fabricated using metal-organic framework (MOF) nanoparticles and gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) as building blocks for cancer chemo/chemodynamic therapy. MOF NPs are used as vehicles to encapsulate camptothecin (CPT), and the hybridization by Au NPs greatly improves the stability of the nanomedicine in a physiological environment. Triggered by the high concentration of phosphate inside the cancer cells, Au/FeMOF@CPT NPs effectively collapse after internalization, resulting in the complete drug release and activation of the cascade catalytic reactions. The intracellular glucose can be oxidized by Au NPs to produce hydrogen dioxide, which is further utilized as chemical fuel for the Fenton reaction, thus realizing the synergistic anticancer efficacy. Benefitting from the enhanced permeability and retention effect and sophisticated fabrications, the blood circulation time and tumor accumulation of Au/FeMOF@CPT NPs are significantly increased. In vivo results demonstrate that the combination of chemotherapy and chemodynamic therapy effectively suppresses the tumor growth, meantime the systemic toxicity of this nanomedicine is greatly avoided.
