RESUMO
Developing ultrasensitive lateral flow immunoassays (LFIAs) has garnered significant attention in the field of point-of-care testing. In this study, a trimetallic dendritic nanozyme (Pd@Pt-Ru) was synthesized through Ru deposition on a Pd@Pt core and utilized to enhancing the sensitivity of LFIAs. Pd@Pt-Ru exhibited a Km value of 5.23 mM for detecting H2O2, which indicates an H2O2 affinity comparable with that of horseradish peroxidase. The Ru surface layer reduces the activation energy barrier, which increases the maximum reaction rate. As a proof of concept, the proposed Pd@Pt-Ru nanozyme was incorporated into LFIAs (A-Pd@Pt-Ru-LFIAs) for detecting human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG). Compared with conventional gold nanoparticle (AuNP)-LFIAs, A-Pd@Pt-Ru-LFIAs demonstrated 250-fold increased sensitivity, thereby enabling a visible detection limit as low as 0.1 IU/L. True positive and negative rates both reached 100%, which renders the proposed Pd@Pt-Ru nanozyme suitable for detecting hCG in clinical samples.

Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) is an emerging therapeutic modality triggered by endogenous substances in the tumor microenvironment (TME) to generate reactive oxygen species. However, the mild acid pH, low H2O2 concentration, and overexpressed glutathione can suppress the CDT efficiency. Herein, ultrasound (US)-triggered Cu2+-based single-atom nanoenzymes (FA-NH2-UiO-66-Cu, FNUC) are constructed with the performance of target and glutathione depletion. In the TME, the single-atom Cu sites of FNUC consume glutathione and the FNUC:Cu+ generates â¢OH via peroxidase-like activity. The US-activated FNUC exhibits a fast â¢OH generation rate, a low Michaelis constant, and a large â¢OH concentration, indicating the cavitation effect of US promotes the â¢OH generation. Meanwhile, the tumor target of FNUC is confirmed by NIR-II fluorescence imaging, in which it is modified with IR-1061. Combined with the antitumor performance of FNUC in vitro and in vivo, the novel Cu-based SAzymes can achieve efficient and precise cancer treatment.

Nanozymes with peroxidase-like activity have been extensively studied for colorimetric biosensing. However, their catalytic activity and specificity still lag far behind those of natural enzymes, which significantly affects the accuracy and sensitivity of colorimetric biosensing. To address this issue, we design PdSn nanozymes with selectively enhanced peroxidase-like activity, which improves the sensitivity and accuracy of a colorimetric immunoassay. The peroxidase-like activity of PdSn nanozymes is significantly higher than that of Pd nanozymes. Theoretical calculations reveal that the p-d orbital hybridization of Pd and Sn not only results in an upward shift of the d-band center to enhance hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) adsorption but also regulates the O-O bonding strength of H2O2 to achieve selective H2O2 activation. Ultimately, the nanozyme-linked immunosorbent assay has been successfully developed to sensitively and accurately detect the prostate-specific antigen (PSA), achieving a low detection limit of 1.696 pg mL-1. This work demonstrates a promising approach for detecting PSA in a clinical diagnosis.

Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) play a crucial function in solid tumor antigen clearance and immune suppression. Notably, 2D transitional metal dichalcogenides (i.e., molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) nanozymes) with enzyme-like activity are demonstrated in animal models for cancer immunotherapy. However, in situ engineering of TAMs polarization through sufficient accumulation of free radical reactive oxygen species for immunotherapy in clinical samples remains a significant challenge. In this study, defect-rich metastable MoS2 nanozymes, i.e., 1T2H-MoS2, are designed via reduction and phase transformation in molten sodium as a guided treatment for human breast cancer. The as-prepared 1T2H-MoS2 exhibited enhanced peroxidase-like activity (≈12-fold enhancement) than that of commercial MoS2, which is attributed to the charge redistribution and electronic state induced by the abundance of S vacancies. The 1T2H-MoS2 nanozyme can function as an extracellular hydroxyl radical generator, efficiently repolarizing TAMs into the M1-like phenotype and directly killing cancer cells. Moreover, the clinical feasibility of 1T2H-MoS2 is demonstrated via ex vivo therapeutic responses in human breast cancer samples. The apoptosis rate of cancer cells is 3.4 times greater than that of cells treated with chemotherapeutic drugs (i.e., doxorubicin).
RESUMO
Design and fabrication of integrated multifunctional probes with intrinsic catalytic and detection abilities is of great importance to simplify the operation in biosensing application with high sensitivity. Herein, dual-emitting lanthanide coordination polymers (Ln-CPs) were facilely prepared by self-assembly of guanine diphosphate (GDP), terephthalic acid (TA), Tb3+ and Cu2+ designated as Tb/Cu-GDP/TA CPs. The doped Cu2+ endowed CPs with obviously enhanced peroxidase mimicking activity compared with free Cu2+. In the presence of H2O2, the probe catalyzed the oxidation of TA generating a new blue fluorescent product, while the fluorescence of Tb3+ decreased simultaneously. Therefore, a new sensitive ratiometric fluorescent sensor for H2O2 has been developed with a good linear range from 0.01 to 300 µM and limit of 1.62 nM. Moreover, the proposed platform could be extended to GSH ratiometric assay in the presence of H2O2, and interestingly, the detection performance could be easily adjusted by adding different concentration of H2O2. This work will facilitate the development of luminescent nanoenzymes based on Ln-CPs to construct the simple ratiomatric sensing platform.
RESUMO
The high catalytic activity of Cu-based nanozymes mainly depends on the efficient Fenton-like reaction of Cu+/ H2O2, but Cu+ cannot exist stably. Trying to find a material that can stably support Cu+ while promoting the electron cycle of Cu2+/Cu+ still faces serious challenges. C60 is expected to be an ideal candidate to solve this problem due to its unique structure and rich physicochemical properties. Here, we designed and synthesized a C60-doped Cu+-based nanozyme (termed as C60-Cu-Bpy) by loading high catalytic active site Cu+ onto C60 and coordinating with 2,2'-bipyridine (Bpy). The single crystal diffraction analysis and a series of auxiliary characterization technologies were used to demonstrate the successful preparation of C60-Cu-Bpy. Significantly, the C60-Cu-Bpy exhibited superior peroxidase-like activity during the catalytic oxidation of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB). Then, the catalytic mechanism of C60-Cu-Bpy as peroxidase was elucidated in detail, mainly benefiting from the dual function of C60. On the one hand, C60 acted as a carrier to directly support Cu+, which has the ability to efficiently decompose H2O2 to produce reactive oxygen species. The other was that C60 acted as an electron buffer, contributing to promoting the Cu2+/Cu+ cycle to facilitate the reaction. Furthermore, a colorimetric sensor for the quantitative analysis of bleomycin was established based on the principle of bleomycin specific inhibition of C60-Cu-Bpy peroxidase-like activity, with satisfactory results in practical samples. This study provides a new strategy for the direct synthesis of Cu+-based nanozymes with high catalytic performance.
RESUMO
Nanozymes are nanomaterials with mimetic enzyme properties and the related research has attracted much attention. It is of great value to develop methods to construct nanozymes and to study their application in bioanalysis. Herein, the metal-ligand cross-linking strategy was developed to fabricate superstructure nanozymes. This strategy takes advantage of being easy to operate, adjustable, cheap, and universal. The fabricated superstructure nanozymes possess efficient peroxidase-like catalytic activity. The enzyme reaction kinetic tests demonstrated that for TMB and H2O2, the Km is 0.229 and 1.308 mM, respectively. Furthermore, these superstructure nanozymes are applied to highly efficient and sensitive detection of glucose. The linear range for detecting glucose is 20-2000 µM, and the limit of detection is 17.5 µM. Furthermore, mechanistic research illustrated that this integrated system oxidizes glucose to produce hydrogen peroxide and further catalyzes the production of ·OH and O2·-, which results in a chromogenic reaction of oxidized TMB for the detection of glucose. This work could not only contribute to the development of efficient nanozymes but also inspire research in the highly sensitive detection of other biomarkers.
RESUMO
Rapid, convenient, and sensitive detection of bacteria and development of novel antibacterial materials are conducive to accurate treatment of bacterial infection and reducing the generation of drug-resistant bacteria caused by overuse of antibiotics. A dual-function magnetic nanozyme, Fc-MBL@rGO@Fe3O4, has been constructed with broad-spectrum bacterial affinity and good peroxidase-like activity. Detection signal amplification was realized in the presence of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) with a detection limit of 26 CFU/mL. In addition, the excellent photothermal properties of Fc-MBL@rGO@Fe3O4 could realize synergistic chemodynamic/photothermal antibacterial therapy. Furthermore, the good bacterial affinity of Fc-MBL@rGO@Fe3O4 enhances the accurate and rapid attack of hydroxyl radical (·OH) on the bacterial membrane and achieves efficient sterilization (100%) at low concentration (40 µg/mL) and mild temperature (47â). Notably, Fc-MBL@rGO@Fe3O4 has a broad spectrum of antibacterial activity against Gram-negative, Gram-positive, and drug-resistant bacteria. The magnetic nanoplatform integrating detection-sterilization not only meets the need for highly sensitive and accurate detection in different scenarios, but can realize low power density NIR-II light-responsive chemodynamic/photothermal antibacterial therapy, which has broad application prospects.

Multifunctional N, Fe-doped carbon dots (N, Fe-CDs) were synthesized by the one-step hydrothermal method using ferric ammonium citrate and dicyandiamide as raw materials. The N, Fe-CDs exhibited peroxidase-like (POD) activity by catalyzing the oxidization of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) to the green oxidation state ox-TMB in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Subsequently, based on the POD activity of N, Fe-CDs, an efficient and sensitive colorimetric method for the detection of H2O2 and ascorbic acid (AA) was established with a limit of detection of 0.40 µM and 2.05 µM. The proposed detection method has been successfully applied to detect AA in fruit juice, vitamin C tablets, and human serum samples and has exhibited excellent application prospects in biotechnology and food fields. Furthermore, N, Fe-CDs also showed a protective effect on the cell damage caused by H2O2 and could be used as an antioxidant agent.

Pursuing effective and generalized strategies for modulating the electronic structures of atomically dispersed nanozymes with remarkable catalytic performance is exceptionally attractive yet challenging. Herein, we developed a facile "formamide condensation and carbonization" strategy to fabricate a library of single-atom (M1-NC; 6 types) and dual-atom (M1/M2-NC; 13 types) metal-nitrogen-carbon nanozymes (M = Fe, Co, Ni, Mn, Ru, Cu) to reveal peroxidase- (POD-) like activities. The Fe1Co1-NC dual-atom nanozyme with Fe1-N4/Co1-N4 coordination displayed the highest POD-like activity. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations revealed that the Co atom site synergistically affects the d-band center position of the Fe atom site and served as the second reaction center, which contributes to better POD-like activity. Finally, Fe1Co1 NC was shown to be effective in inhibiting tumor growth both in vitro and in vivo, suggesting that diatomic synergy is an effective strategy for developing artificial nanozymes as novel nanocatalytic therapeutics.

Developing artificial enzymes based on organic molecules or polymers for reactive oxygen species (ROS)-related catalysis has broad applicability. Herein, inspired by porphyrin-based heme mimics, we report the synthesis of polyphthalocyanine-based conjugated polymers (Fe-PPc-AE) as a new porphyrin-evolving structure to serve as efficient and versatile artificial enzymes for augmented reactive oxygen catalysis. Owing to the structural advantages, such as enhanced π-conjugation networks and π-electron delocalization, promoted electron transfer, and unique Fe-N coordination centers, Fe-PPc-AE showed more efficient ROS-production activity in terms of Vmax and turnover numbers as compared with porphyrin-based conjugated polymers (Fe-PPor-AE), which also surpassed reported state-of-the-art artificial enzymes in their activity. More interestingly, by changing the reaction medium and substrates, Fe-PPc-AE also revealed significantly improved activity and environmental adaptivity in many other ROS-related biocatalytic processes, validating the potential of Fe-PPc-AE to replace conventional (poly)porphyrin-based heme mimics for ROS-related catalysis, biosensors, or biotherapeutics. It is suggested that this study will offer essential guidance for designing artificial enzymes based on organic molecules or polymers.

Single-atom catalysts (SACs), distinguished by their maximum atom efficiency and precise control over the coordination and electronic properties of individual atoms, show great promise in electrocatalysis. Gaining a comprehensive understanding of the electrochemical performance of SACs requires the screening of electron transfer process at micro/nano scale. This research pioneers the use of electrogenerated chemiluminescence microscopy (ECLM) to observe the electrocatalytic reactions at individual SACs. It boasts sensitivity at the single photon level and temporal resolution down to 100â ms, enabling real-time capture of the electrochemical behavior of individual SACs during potential sweeping. Leveraging the direct correlation between ECL emission and heterogeneous electron transfer processes, we introduced photon flux density for quantitative analysis, unveiling the electrocatalytic efficiency of individual SACs. This approach systematically reveals the relationship between SACs based on different metal atoms and their peroxidase (POD)-like activity. The outcomes contribute to a fundamental understanding of SACs and pave the way for designing SACs with diverse technological and industrial applications.
RESUMO
Engineering the catalytic performance of nanozymes is of vital importance for their broad applications in biological analysis, cancer treatment, and environmental management. Herein, a strategy to boost the peroxidase-like activity of Pd-based nanozymes with oxophilic metallic bismuth (Bi) is demonstrated, which is based on the incorporation of oxophilic Bi in the Pd-based alloy nanocrystals (NCs). To synthesize PdBi alloy NCs, a seed-mediated method is employed with the assistance of underpotential deposition (UPD) of Bi on Pd. The strong interaction of Bi atoms with Pd surfaces favors the formation of alloy structures with controllable shapes and excellent monodispersity. More importantly, the PdBi NCs show excellent peroxidase-like activities compared with pristine Pd NCs. The structure-function correlations for the PdBi nanozymes are elucidated, and an indirect colorimetric method based on cascade reactions to determine alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is established. This method has good linear range, low detection limit, excellent selectivity, and anti-interference. Collectively, this work not only provides new insights for the design of high-efficiency nanozymes, expands the colorimetric sensing platform based on enzyme cascade reactions, but also represents a new example for UPD-directed synthesis of alloy NCs.

Carbon dots (CDs) with good water solubility and biocompatibility have become a research hotspot in the nano-enzyme and biomedical field. However, the problems of low catalytic activity and ambiguous catalytic site of CDs as nanozymes still need to be addressed. In this work, CDs loaded with Cu single atoms are obtained through pyrolysis, and the coordination structure and surface functional groups are regulated by adjusting the pyrolysis temperature. CDs obtained at 300 °C (named Cu-CDs-300) have the most carboxyl content and Cu is coordinated in the form of CuN2 O2 , which can better decompose H2 O2 to produce free radical and is beneficial to catalyze the oxidation of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB). The vmax is 6.56*10-7 m s-1 , 6.56 times higher than that of horseradish peroxidase (HRP). Moreover, Cu-CDs-300 can effectively lead to CT26 apoptosis by generating much free radicals. This work demonstrates the synergistic effect of oxygen-containing functional groups and metal coordination structures on peroxide-like activity of CDs and provides new ideas for the design of clear active structure and high efficiency peroxide-like single atom CDs catalyst.
RESUMO
Recently, single-atom catalysts are attracting much attention in sensor field due to their remarkable peroxidase- or oxidase-like activities. Herein, peroxidase-like FeCoZn triple-atom catalyst supported on S- and N-doped carbon derived from ZIF-8 (FeCoZn-TAC/SNC) serves as a proof-of-concept nanozyme. In this paper, a dual-channel nanozyme-based colorimetric sensor array is presented for identifying seven preservatives in food. Further experiments reveal that the peroxidase-like activity of the FeCoZn TAzyme enables it to catalyze the oxidation of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) and o-phenylenediamine (OPD) in the presence of H2 O2 , yielding the blue oxTMB and yellow oxOPD, respectively. However, food preservatives are adsorbed on the nanozyme surface through π-π stacking interaction and hydrogen bond, and the reduction in catalytic activity of FeCoZn TAzyme causes differential colorimetric signal variations, which provide unique "fingerprints" for each food preservative.

Recently, nanozymes based on polymer-stabilized gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have attracted more and more attention on account of their polymer-ligands' multiple functionalization sites. However, the contribution of polymer hydrogen bonding to the catalytic activity of AuNPs has received little attention. This study designed and fabricated poly(N-2-hydroxypropylmethacrylamide)-capped AuNPs (PHPAM@AuNPs) using a hydroxyl-rich polymer as the ligand. The PHPAM@AuNPs exhibited good peroxidase-mimicking activity capable of efficiently oxidizing 3,3'5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) with H2O2. The effect of PHPAM hydrogen bonding on the catalytic activity of PHPAM@AuNPs was investigated. Under peroxidase-mimicking catalysis, homocysteine introduced a notable reduction in oxidation, allowing the creation of a colorimetric method for homocysteine detection with high selectivity and sensitivity. The ultraviolet-visible absorption intensity of oxidized TMB showed a strong linear relationship with homocysteine concentration in the range of 3.0-20.0 µM (R2 = 0.998), with a limit of detection of 0.4 µM. The proposed colorimetric protocol was used to monitor homocysteine in rat serum following intraperitoneal injection. This work provides a new way to refine AuNP-based nanozymes by relying on polymer-ligand hydrogen bonding. It has strong application potential in the analysis of endogenous molecules in real samples.

Lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) can be used as a biomarker for diseases such as cancer, diabetes, atherosclerosis, and sepsis. In this study, we demonstrated the ability of nanozymes to displace the natural derived enzyme in enzyme-based assays for the measurement of LPC. Synthesized polyvinylpyrrolidone-stabilized platinum-ruthenium nanozymes (PVP/PtRu NZs) had a uniform size of 2.48 ± 0.24 nm and superb peroxidase-mimicking activity. We demonstrated that the nanozymes had high activity over a wide pH and temperature range and high stability after long-term storage. The LPC concentration could be accurately analyzed through the absorbance and fluorescence signals generated by the peroxidation reaction using the synthesized nanozyme with substrates such as 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) and 10-acetyl-3,7-dihydroxyphenoxazine (Ampliflu™ Red). LPC at a concentration of 0-400 µM was used for the analysis, and the coefficient of determination (R2) was 0.977, and the limit of detection (LOD) was 23.1 µM by colorimetric assay. In the fluorometric assay, the R2 was 0.999, and the LOD was 8.97 µM. The spiked recovery values for the determination of LPC concentration in human serum samples were 102-115%. Based on these results, we declared that PVP/PtRu NZs had an ability comparable to that of the native enzyme horseradish peroxidase (HRP) in the enzyme-based LPC detection method.

Nanozyme, with enzyme-mimicking activity and excellent stability, has attracted extensive attention. However, some inherent disadvantages, including poor dispersion, low selectivity, and insufficient peroxidase-like activity, still limit its further development. Therefore, an innovative bioconjugation of a nanozyme and natural enzyme was conducted. In the presence of graphene oxide (GO), histidine magnetic nanoparticles (H-Fe3O4) were first synthesized by a solvothermal method. The GO-supported H-Fe3O4 (GO@H-Fe3O4) exhibited superior dispersity and biocompatibility because GO was the carrier and possessed outstanding peroxidase-like activity because of the introduction of histidine. Furthermore, the mechanism of the peroxidase-like activity of GO@H-Fe3O4 was the generation of â¢OH. Uric acid oxidase (UAO) was selected as the model natural enzyme and covalently linked to GO@H-Fe3O4 with hydrophilic poly(ethylene glycol) as a linker. UAO could specifically catalyze the oxidation of uric acid (UA) to generate H2O2, and subsequently, the newly produced H2O2 oxidized the colorless 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) to blue ox-TMB under the catalysis of GO@H-Fe3O4. Based on the above cascade reaction, the GO@H-Fe3O4-linked UAO (GHFU) and GO@H-Fe3O4-linked ChOx (GHFC) were used for the detection of UA in serum samples and cholesterol (CS) in milk, respectively. The method based on GHFU exhibited a wide detection range (5-800 µM) and a low detection limit (1.5 µM) for UA, and the method based on GHFC exhibited a wide detection range (4-400 µM) and a low detection limit (1.13 µM) for CS. These results demonstrated that the proposed strategy had great potential in the field of clinical detection and food safety.

The peroxidase-like activity of Ti3C2 nanosheets (Ti3C2 NSs) was evaluated by catalytic oxidation of colorless o-phenylenediamine (OPD) into orange-yellow 2,3-diaminophenazine (DAP) with the aid of H2O2. The catalytic behavior followed the typical Michaelis-Menten kinetics. Systematic studies about the catalytic activity of Ti3C2 NSs including cytochrome C (Cyt C) electron transfer experiments, radical capture experiments, and fluorescence analysis were conducted, revealing that the catalytic mechanism of Ti3C2 NSs was attributed to nanozyme-accelerated electron transfer between substrates and nanozyme-promoted generation of active species (superoxide anion free radical (·O2-) and holes (h+)). Single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) inhibited the peroxidase-like activity of Ti3C2 NSs, and the reduced catalytic activity was ascribed to DNA-hindered substrate accessibility to nanozyme surface. Based on the DNA controllable peroxidase-mimicking activity of Ti3C2 NSs, taking microcystin-LR (MC-LR) aptamer as an example, a label-free colorimetric aptasensor was proposed for the sensitive detection of MC-LR. The colorimetric aptasensor showed a wide linear range (0.01-60 ng mL-1), low limit of detection (6.5 pg mL-1), and high selectivity. The practicality of the colorimetric aptasensor was demonstrated by detecting different levels of MC-LR in spiked real water samples; satisfactory recoveries (97.2-102.1%) and low relative standard deviations (1.16-3.72%) were obtained.

1,5-anhydroglucitol (1,5-AG) is of considerable clinical relevance as a biochemical marker of glucose metabolism in the assessment and monitoring of diabetes. Herein, a simple colorimetric biosensor was constructed for the identification and detection of 1,5-AG by using pyranose oxidase (PROD) enzyme cascaded with reduced graphene oxide/persimmon tannin/Pt@Pd (RGO-PT/Pt@Pd NPs) nanozyme. The as-prepared RGO-PT/Pt@Pd NPs had excellent peroxidase-like activity and can be applied as a nanozyme. First, PROD enzyme reacts with the target 1,5-AG, decomposing 1,5-AG into 1,5-anhydrofuctose (1,5-AF) and H2O2. At this point, the highly catalytic RGO-PT/Pt@Pd NPs nanozyme produces a cascade with PROD enzyme which catalyzes the decomposition of H2O2 to produce O2. This in turn oxidizes the substrate 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) and produces a color change in the solution. Finally, the detection of 1,5-AG was achieved by measuring the absorption peak at 652 nm with an ultraviolet visible (UV-vis) spectrophotometer. Under optimal conditions, the linear operating range of the 1,5-AG enzyme cascade colorimetric sensor was 1.0-100.0 µg/mL, and the limit of detection (LOD) was 0.81 µg/mL. The proposed colorimetric biosensor was successfully applied to detect 1,5-AG in spiked human serum samples with the recoveries of 97.2-103.9% and RSDs of 1.94-4.48%. It provides a promising developmental assay for clinical detection of 1,5-AG.
