In this study, we report a cascade nanozymatic system with significantly improved selectivity and sensitivity that combines more substrate-specific reactions and sensitive fiuorescence detection. Taking detection of ascorbic acid(AA)as an example, a cascade catalytic reaction system consisting of oxidase-like N-doped carbon nanocages(NC) and peroxidase-like copper oxide(Cu O) improved the reaction selectivity in transforming the substrate into the target product by more than 1200 times against the interference of uric acid. The cascade catalytic reaction system was also applicable for transfer from open reactors into a spatially confined microfiuidic device, increasing the slope of the calibration curves by approximately 1000-fold with a linear detection range of 2.5 nmol/L to 100 nmol/L and a low limit of detection of 0.77 nmol/L. This work offers a new strategy that achieves significant improvements in selectivity and sensitivity.展开更多

In this study, a biocompatible ferruginated carbon quantum dots (Fe-CQDs) nanozyme is developed to target ROS, thereby reducing oxidative damage and improving the absorption and transfer of Cd ions in wheat. Notably, Fe-CQDs exhibit multi-enzyme activities mimicking peroxidase (POD), catalase (CAT), and superoxide dismutase (SOD), enabling effective neutralization of active species such as hydroxyl radicals (•OH), hydrogen peroxide (H_(2)O_(2)), and superoxide anions (O_(2)•^(-)). Importantly, root application of 10 mg L^(-1) Fe-CQDs alleviates Cd stress and promotes wheat growth in both hydroponic and soil cultures. Specifically, the levels of O_(2)•^(-), H_(2)O_(2), and malondialdehyde (MDA) in leaf tissues decrease, whereas the non-enzyme antioxidant, reduced glutathione (GSH), increases. Cell wall thickness in the Fe-CQDs-treated group is reduced by 42.4% compared with the Cd group. Moreover, Fe-CQDs enhance the expression of genes related to antioxidants, stress resistance, Cd detoxification, and nutrient transport. Transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses show that Fe-CQDs stimulate the production of flavonoids and regulate the activity of metal transporter genes (YSL, ABC, ZIP) to maintain ROS homeostasis. These findings highlight the potential of Fe-CQDs nanozyme platforms in mitigating oxidative damage and enhancing crop growth, offering new insights into the application of nanobiotechnology in agriculture.展开更多

Herein, selenium-doped porous N-doped carbon skeletons(Se/NC) nanozymes with highly specific peroxidase-like activity were synthesized by a MOF-pyrolysis-doping protocol. Se doping adjusted the electronic structure of NC by introducing more vacancies, defective carbon and graphitic N,and endowed the resultant Se/NC enhanced charge transfer and substrate affinity. The Se/NC exhibited specific peroxidase-mimicking activity and could catalyze 3,3,5,5-tetramethylbenzidine oxidation by H_(2)O_(2). Density functional theory(DFT) calculations and experimental trials indicated that both Se=O and C–Se–C species were the main active sites of Se/NC. The C–Se–C bond is the main catalytic active site endowing Se/NC with the property of nanozyme, while the Se=O bond effectively enhances its affinity to H_(2)O_(2) and accelerate H2O2dissociation. The Se/NC showed an approximately 185-fold increase in peroxidase-like activity compared to NC. Based on the inhibition of the peroxidase-like activity of Se/NC by methimazole, a colorimetric sensor was developed to achieve its sensitive detection with 2 nmol/L of limit of detection. It was successfully used for detecting methimazole in real samples. Current Se doping strategy simplifies the fabrication process of high performance specific nanozyme and promises great potential for environmental analysis.展开更多

文摘Researchers have shown significant interest in modulating the peroxidase-like activity of nanozymes.Among these,bimetallic nanozymes have shown superior peroxidase-like activity over monometallic counterparts,offering enhanced performance and cost-efficiency in nanozyme designs.Herein,bimetallic nanozymes comprising nickel(Ni)and osmium(Os)incorporated into hyaluronate(HA)have been developed,resulting in HA-Nin/Os nanoclusters.Subsequently,comprehensive characterizations have been conducted.Further investigation has revealed that HA-Nin/Os efficiently catalyzed 3,3,5,5-tetramethylbenzidine(TMB)oxidation with hydrogen peroxide(H_(2)O_(2)),confirming its peroxidase-like behavior and role as a nanozyme.Impressively,HA-Ni_(2)/Os(Ni/Os=2:1)displays heightened substrate affinity,accelerated reaction rates,enhanced hydroxyl radical production in acidic conditions,and exhibits activity unit of 1224 U/mg,representing more than two-fold increase compared to non-Ni-supported Os nanozyme.Theoretical calculations indicate that Ni support enhances the peroxidase-like process of Os nanozyme by improving H_(2)O_(2) adsorption and TMB oxidation.Crucially,the support of Ni does not significantly alter the other enzyme-like activities of Os nanozymes,thereby enabling Ni to selectively enhance their peroxidase-like activity.In terms of application,the peroxidase-like ability of HA-Ni_(2)/Os,facilitated by HA's carboxyl groups enabling crosslinking,proves effective in a squamous carcinoma antigen immunoassay.Moreover,HA-Ni_(2)/Os exhibit reliable stability,promising as a peroxidase substitute.This work underscores the advantages of incorporating Ni into Os,specifically enhancing peroxidase-like activity,highlighting the potential of Os bimetallic nanozymes for peroxidase-based applications.
文摘Directed degradation of abundant renewable lignin into small aromatic compounds is crucial for lignin valorization but challenging.The degradation of lignin in natural environments typically involves multienzyme synergy.However,the proteinaceous characteristics of lignin-degrading enzymes restrict their accessibility to certain regions of intricate lignin,resulting in the multienzyme systems being unable to fully demonstrate their effectiveness.Herein,a de novo biomimetic enzyme-nanozyme hybrid system was constructed by combiningλ-MnO_(2) nanozyme with laccase CotA from Bacillus subtilis,aimed at facilitating lignin degradation under mild conditions.The lignin degradation rate of the CotA+λ-MnO_(2) hybrid system was determined to be 25.15%,which was much higher than those of the lignin degradation systems with only laccase CotA(15.32%)orλ-MnO_(2) nanozyme(14.90%).Notably,the proportion of aromatic chemicals in the products derived from the hybrid system reached as much as 48%,which was 41.2%and 118.2%higher than those of the CotA-andλ-MnO_(2)-catalyzed systems,respectively.Analysis of products mapping and lignin structure changes suggested that the higher proportion of aromatic compounds in the CotA+λ-MnO_(2)hybrid system was more likely to benefit from the laccase-mediated methoxylation.Moreover,electron paramagnetic resonance analysis indicated that the intensity and kind of free radicals such as·OH and·O_(2)^(-)are closely linked to the degradation rate and reaction type.This work is the inaugural application of an enzyme-nanozyme hybrid system for lignin degradation,demonstrating the potential of the synergistic interaction between enzyme and nanozyme in the directed degradation of lignin.

文摘As environmental pollutants pose a serious threat to socioeconomic and environmental health,the development of simple,efficient,accurate and costeffective methods for pollution monitoring and control remains a major challenge,but it is an unavoidable issue.In the past decade,the artificial nanozymes have been widely used for environmental pollutant monitoring and control,because of their low cost,high stability,easy mass production,etc.However,the conventional nanozyme technology faces significant challenges in terms of difficulty in regulating the exposed crystal surface,complex composition,low catalytic activity,etc.In contrast,the emerging single-atom nanozymes(SANs)have attracted much attention in the field of environmental monitoring and control,due to their multiple advantages of atomically dispersed active sites,high atom utilization efficiency,tunable coordination environment,etc.To date,the insufficient efforts have been made to comprehensively characterize the applications of SANs in the monitoring and control of environmental pollutants.Building on the recent advances in the field,this review systematically summarizes the main synthesis methods of SANs and highlights their advances in the monitoring and control of environmental pollutants.Finally,we critically evaluate the limitations and challenges of SANs,and provide the insights into their future prospects for the monitoring and control of environmental pollutants.

文摘Compared with natural enzymes, nanozymes have the advantages of high stability and low cost;however,selectivity and sensitivity are key issues that prevent their further development. In this study, we report a cascade nanozymatic system with significantly improved selectivity and sensitivity that combines more substrate-specific reactions and sensitive fiuorescence detection. Taking detection of ascorbic acid(AA)as an example, a cascade catalytic reaction system consisting of oxidase-like N-doped carbon nanocages(NC) and peroxidase-like copper oxide(Cu O) improved the reaction selectivity in transforming the substrate into the target product by more than 1200 times against the interference of uric acid. The cascade catalytic reaction system was also applicable for transfer from open reactors into a spatially confined microfiuidic device, increasing the slope of the calibration curves by approximately 1000-fold with a linear detection range of 2.5 nmol/L to 100 nmol/L and a low limit of detection of 0.77 nmol/L. This work offers a new strategy that achieves significant improvements in selectivity and sensitivity.

文摘Sorafenib(Sora)not only has an inhibitory effect on angiogenesis via indirectly inhibiting tumor growth through antiangiogenesis,but also can inactivate the glutathione peroxidase 4(GPX4)to induce ferroptosis.Nonetheless,the therapeutic efficacy is hampered by a plethora of factors,including low bioavailability and tumor microenvironment(TME).Of particular note is the hypoxic and reductive TME,which acts as a significant impediment and poses formidable challenges to attain the most optimal treatment outcomes.Herein,we developed a novel therapeutic platform based on Sora-loaded mesoporous ferromanganese nanoparticles(PMFNs@Sora).PMFNs mimics both catalase and GPX activities.The self-sustained catalase activity enables continuous decomposition of hydrogen peroxide to generate oxygen,which alleviates hypoxia microenvironment.The GPX activity simultaneously amplifies the therapeutic efficacy of Sora.The as-synthesized PMFNs@Sora demonstrates significantly enhanced antitumor effect in vitro through apoptosis-ferroptosis,revealed by Western blot.Furthermore,PMFNs@Sora also showed effective tumor growth inhibition in vivo.This multifunctional nanoplatform offers a promising strategy for modulating the TME and enhancing cancer treatment in clinical application.

文摘Excessive accumulation of cadmium (Cd) impairs crop growth by inducing oxidative damage through the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). In this study, a biocompatible ferruginated carbon quantum dots (Fe-CQDs) nanozyme is developed to target ROS, thereby reducing oxidative damage and improving the absorption and transfer of Cd ions in wheat. Notably, Fe-CQDs exhibit multi-enzyme activities mimicking peroxidase (POD), catalase (CAT), and superoxide dismutase (SOD), enabling effective neutralization of active species such as hydroxyl radicals (•OH), hydrogen peroxide (H_(2)O_(2)), and superoxide anions (O_(2)•^(-)). Importantly, root application of 10 mg L^(-1) Fe-CQDs alleviates Cd stress and promotes wheat growth in both hydroponic and soil cultures. Specifically, the levels of O_(2)•^(-), H_(2)O_(2), and malondialdehyde (MDA) in leaf tissues decrease, whereas the non-enzyme antioxidant, reduced glutathione (GSH), increases. Cell wall thickness in the Fe-CQDs-treated group is reduced by 42.4% compared with the Cd group. Moreover, Fe-CQDs enhance the expression of genes related to antioxidants, stress resistance, Cd detoxification, and nutrient transport. Transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses show that Fe-CQDs stimulate the production of flavonoids and regulate the activity of metal transporter genes (YSL, ABC, ZIP) to maintain ROS homeostasis. These findings highlight the potential of Fe-CQDs nanozyme platforms in mitigating oxidative damage and enhancing crop growth, offering new insights into the application of nanobiotechnology in agriculture.

文摘Acrylamide(AA)is a neurotoxin and carcinogen that formed during the thermal food processing.Conventional quantification techniques are difficult to realize on-site detection of AA.Herein,a flower-like bimetallic FeCu nanozyme(FeCuzyme)sensor and portable platform were developed for naked-eye and on-site detection of AA.The FeCuzyme was successfully prepared and exhibited flower-like structure with 3D catalytic centers.Fe/Cu atoms were considered as active center and ligand frameworks were used as cofactor,resulting in collaborative substrate-binding features and remarkably peroxidase-like activity.During the catalytic process,the 3,3′,5,5′-tetrame-thylbenzidine(TMB)oxidation can be quenched by glutathione(GSH),and then restored after thiolene Michael addition reaction between GSH and AA.Given the“on–off–on”effect for TMB oxidation and high PODlike activity,FeCuzyme sensor exhibited a wide linear relationship from 0.50 to 18.00μM(R^(2)=0.9987)and high sensitivity(LOD=0.2360μM)with high stability.The practical application of FeCuzyme sensor was successfully validated by HPLC method.Furthermore,a FeCuzyme portable platform was designed with smartphone/laptop,and which can be used for naked-eye and on-site quantitative determination of AA in real food samples.This research provides a way for rational design of a novel nanozyme-based sensing platform for AA detection.

文摘Simultaneously suppressing tumor growth and metastasis is a pivotal strategy in the treatment of cutaneous melanoma(CM).Towards this end,we first developed a novel PtCu nanozyme(PtCu-zyme)integrating single-atom Pt and Pt subnanoclusters,which was further functionalized with triphenylphosphine(TPP)to yield PtCu-TPP and confer the nanozyme mitochondria-targeting capabilities.By combining PtCuTPP with a hyaluronic acid(HA)analog,isoliquiritigenin-grafted HA(HA-ISL),we later formulated PtCuTPP loaded microneedles(PtCu-TPP@MNs)for potent CM treatment.Our findings indicated that PtCuzyme exhibited exceptional oxidative enzyme-like properties and PtCu-TPP@MNs significantly inhibited the tumor growth and pulmonary metastasis.Furthermore,PtCu-TPP@MNs not only prolonged the survival of CM-bearing mice but also retained the nanozymes in the tumor,continually catalyzing reactive oxygen species(ROS)generation for sustained nanocatalytic therapy.In vitro studies revealed that PtCuTPP specifically localized within mitochondria,increasing ROS levels and causing mitochondrial damage,which in turn enhanced the cytotoxicity towards tumor cells.These findings suggest that PtCu-TPP@MN delivery system holds significant promise for the effective treatment of CM,potentially offering a valuable alternative to existing therapeutic strategies.

文摘Wound healing in diabetic patients presents significant challenges due to heightened risks of bacterial infection,elevated glucose levels,and insufficient angiogenesis.Nanozymes are widely employed for wound healing,but most current nanozyme systems exhibit only moderate activity limited by incompatible reaction microenvironments including p H and hydrogen peroxide(H_(2)O_(2))concentration.Herein,a glucoseactivated nanozyme hydrogel was developed using bovine serum albumin(BSA)-modified gold nanoparticles(Au NPs)attached to a two-dimensional(2D)metal-organic framework(MOF)(Cu-TCPP(Fe)@Au@BSA)by an in situ growth method.The Au NPs function as a glucose oxidase(GOx)-like enzyme,converting glucose to gluconic acid and H_(2)O_(2),triggering the peroxidase(POD)-like activity of Cu-TCPP(Fe)to produce hydroxyl radicals(·OH),effectively eliminating bacteria.Additionally,the modification of BSA reduces the Au NP size,enhancing enzyme activity.Both in vitro and in vivo tests demonstrate that this nanozyme hydrogel can be activated by the microenvironment to lower blood glucose,eliminate bacterial infections,and promote epithelial formation and collagen deposition,thus accelerating diabetic wound healing effectively.The multifunctional nanozyme hydrogel dressing developed in this study presents a promising therapeutic approach to enhance diabetic wound healing.

文摘In this work,a novel bifunctional zirconium dioxide@zeolitic imidazolate framework-90(ZrO_(2)@ZIF-90)nanozyme was successfully developed for the catalytic degradation and electrochemical detection of methyl parathion(MP).The ZrO_(2)@ZIF-90 nanozyme with phosphatase hydrolysis activity can convert MP into p-nitrophenol(p-NP).The addition of ZrO_(2)riched in Lewis acid Zr(IV)sites significantly enhanced the phosphatase hydrolysis activity of ZIF-90.ZrO_(2)@ZIF-90 also displayed satisfactory electrocatalytic performance on account of the high surface area,high porosity and powerful enrichment ability of the ZIF-90 and the excellent ion transfer capacity of ZrO_(2).A ZrO_(2)@ZIF-90 nanozyme modified glassy carbon electrode(ZrO_(2)@ZIF-90/GCE)was then fabricated to analyze p-NP formed through MP degradation.Under the optimized conditions,the developed sensor displayed satisfactory analytical performance with a low limit of detection of 0.53μmol/L and two wide linear ranges(3-10 and 10-200μmol/L).ZrO_(2)@ZIF-90 nanozyme accomplished to the degradation and electrochemical detection of MP in river water and spiked fruits.This study identifies a promising new strategy for the design of bifunctional nanozymes for the detection of environmental hazards.

文摘The treatment of chronic wounds presents significant challenges due to the necessity of accelerating healing within complex microenvironments characterized by persistent inflammation and biochemical imbalances.Factors such as bacterial infections,hyperglycemia,and oxidative stress disrupt cellular functions and impair angiogenesis,substantially delaying wound repair.Nanozymes,which are engineered nanoscale materials with enzyme-like activities,offer distinct advantages over conventional enzymes and traditional nanomaterials,making them promising candidates for chronic wound treatment.To enhance their clinical potential,nanozyme-based catalytic systems are currently being optimized through formulation advancements and preclinical studies assessing their biocompatibility,anti-oxidant activity,antibacterial efficacy,and tissue repair capabilities,ensuring their safety and clinical applicability.When integrated into multifunctional wound dressings,nanozymes modulate reactive oxygen species levels,promote tissue regeneration,and simultaneously combat infections and oxidative damage,extending beyond conventional enzyme-like catalysis in chronic wound treatment.The customizable architectures of nanozymes enable precise therapeutic applications,enhancing their effectiveness in managing complex wound conditions.This review provides a comprehensive analysis of the incorporation of nanozymes into wound dressings,detailing fabrication methods and emphasizing their transformative potential in chronic wound management.By identifying and addressing key limitations,we introduce strategic advancements to drive the development of nanozyme-driven dressings,paving the way for next-generation chronic wound treatments.

文摘The presence of the blood–brain barrier limits the drug concentration in the brain,while low concentrations of antibiotics make it difficult to kill infecting bacteria and tends to induce drug resistance,making the clinical treatment of bacterial meningitis challenging.Herein,a nose-to-brain delivery strategy of small-sized nanozyme has been fabricated for combating bacterial meningitis,to overcome the low drug concentration and drug resistance.This strategy was achieved by a proteinsupported Au nanozyme(ANZ).With a particle size of less than 10 nm,it possesses both glucose oxidase-like and peroxidase-like activities and can generate large amounts of reactive oxygen species through a cascade effect without the addition of external H_(2)O_(2).Benefiting from the cascade catalytic amplification effect generated by its dual enzymelike activities,ANZ shows significant broad-spectrum antibacterial activity without inducing bacterial resistance in vitro.Notably,small-sized ANZ exhibits higher brain entry efficiency and greater accumulation after intranasal administration compared to oral or intravenous administration.In a mouse model of bacterial meningitis,the mice treated with ANZ had lower bacterial loads in the brain and higher survival and clinical behavior scores compared to the classical antibiotic ceftriaxone.Additionally,the meningitis mice exhibited undamaged cognitive and behavioral abilities,indicating the excellent biocompatibility of ANZ.The above results demonstrate that nose-to-brain delivery of ANZ exhibits high intracerebral accumulation,strong antibacterial efficacy and does not lead to bacterial resistance.It holds broad prospects for the treatment of bacterial meningitis.

文摘Ultrasensitive detection of multiple diseases markers is of great importance in improving diagnostic accuracy,precision,and efficiency.A versatile Au nanozyme Raman probe strategy was employed to develop an ultrasensitive multiplex surface-enhanced Raman scattering(SERS)immunosensor using encoded silica photonic crystal beads(SPCBs).The efficient Au nanozyme Raman probe strategy was constructed using a robust Au nanozyme with high dual enzyme-like activity and SERS activity.On the one hand,Au nanozyme tags with oxidase-like activity can catalyze the oxidation of Raman-inactive 3,3,5,5-tetramethylbenzidine(TMB)to Raman-active oxidized TMB(ox-TMB)in the presence of O_(2).On the other hand,Au nanozyme tags with peroxidase-like activity can catalyze Raman-inactive TMB to Ramanactive ox-TMB in the presence of H_(2)O_(2).This dual catalysis action results in many Raman-active reporter molecules(ox-TMB)enabling highly sensitive detection.Meanwhile,the Au nanozyme as an extraordinary SERS substrate further enhances the detection signals of these Raman reporter molecules.Using reflection peaks of different SPCBs to encode tumor markers,an ultrasensitive multiplex SERS immunosensor was developed for detection of carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA)and alpha-fetoprotein(AFP),which exhibited wide linear ranges of 0.001-100 ng/m L for CEA and 0.01-1000 ng/m L for AFP,accompanied by low detection limits of 0.66 pg/m L for CEA and 9.5 pg/m L for AFP,respectively.This work demonstrates a universal and promising nanozyme Raman probe strategy to develop ultrasensitive multiplex SERS immunosensors for precise clinical diagnosis of disease.

文摘Acute lung injury(ALI)was characterized by excessive reactive oxygen species(ROS)levels and inflammatory response in the lung.Scavenging ROS could inhibit the excessive inflammatory response,further treating ALI.Herein,we designed a novel nanozyme(P@Co)comprised of polydopamine(PDA)nanoparticles(NPs)loading with ultra-small Co,combining with near infrared(NIR)irradiation,which could efficiently scavenge intracellular ROS and suppress inflammatory responses against ALI.For lipopolysaccharide(LPS)induced macrophages,P@Co+NIR presented excellent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory capacities through lowering intracellular ROS levels,decreasing the expression levels of interleukin-6(IL-6)and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)as well as inducing macrophage M2 directional polarization.Significantly,it displayed the outstanding activities of lowering acute lung inflammation,relieving diffuse alveolar damage,and up-regulating heat shock protein 70(HSP70)expression,resulting in synergistic enhanced ALI therapy effect.It offers a novel strategy for the clinical treatment of ROS related diseases.
文摘Tuning the nanozyme s activity and specificity is very crucial for developing highly sensitive sensors for various applications. Herein, selenium-doped porous N-doped carbon skeletons(Se/NC) nanozymes with highly specific peroxidase-like activity were synthesized by a MOF-pyrolysis-doping protocol. Se doping adjusted the electronic structure of NC by introducing more vacancies, defective carbon and graphitic N,and endowed the resultant Se/NC enhanced charge transfer and substrate affinity. The Se/NC exhibited specific peroxidase-mimicking activity and could catalyze 3,3,5,5-tetramethylbenzidine oxidation by H_(2)O_(2). Density functional theory(DFT) calculations and experimental trials indicated that both Se=O and C–Se–C species were the main active sites of Se/NC. The C–Se–C bond is the main catalytic active site endowing Se/NC with the property of nanozyme, while the Se=O bond effectively enhances its affinity to H_(2)O_(2) and accelerate H2O2dissociation. The Se/NC showed an approximately 185-fold increase in peroxidase-like activity compared to NC. Based on the inhibition of the peroxidase-like activity of Se/NC by methimazole, a colorimetric sensor was developed to achieve its sensitive detection with 2 nmol/L of limit of detection. It was successfully used for detecting methimazole in real samples. Current Se doping strategy simplifies the fabrication process of high performance specific nanozyme and promises great potential for environmental analysis.

文摘Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease,which seriously affects the physical and mental health of patients.The progression of psoriasis is influenced by the excessive production of reactive oxygen species(ROS)and inflammatory responses.In this paper,novel celastrol(Ce)-loaded metal-phenolic nanozymes(tannic acid-Fe^(3+))(TA-Fe)integrated microneedles(Ce@TA-Fe/MNs)were constructed to achieve the combined oxidative stress alleviation and anti-inflammatory therapy of psoriasis.Molecular dynamics simulations and structural characterization confirmed the successful fabrication of nanozymes.The Ce@TA-Fe/MNs system,characterized by its rapid dissolution kinetics and superior mechanical strength,enabled minimally invasive skin penetration for efficient nanozymes delivery.Nanozymes possessed superoxide dismutase and catalase mimetic enzyme activities,effectively eliminating excessive ROS in psoriatic skin lesions.Additionally,the release of Ce from Ce@TA-Fe provided strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.Based on these characteristics,Ce@TA-Fe/MNs could effectively alleviate the symptoms in psoriasis mice models.These findings demonstrated that the integration of Ce-equipped nanozymes within MNs holds great promise as a therapeutic strategy for the clinical management of psoriasis.
