RESUMO
Drug-resistant bacterial infections cause significant harm to public life, health, and property. Biofilm is characterized by overexpression of glutathione (GSH), hypoxia, and slight acidity, which is one of the main factors for the formation of bacterial resistance. Traditional antibiotic therapy gradually loses its efficacy against multi-drug-resistant (MDR) bacteria. Therefore, synergistic therapy, which regulates the biofilm microenvironment, is a promising strategy. A multifunctional nanoplatform, SnFe2O4-PBA/Ce6@ZIF-8 (SBC@ZIF-8), in which tin ferrite (SnFe2O4, denoted as SFO) as the core, loaded with 3-aminobenzeneboronic acid (PBA) and dihydroporphyrin e6 (Ce6), and finally coated with zeolite imidazole salt skeleton 8 (ZIF-8). The platform has a synergistic photothermal therapy (PTT)/photodynamic therapy (PDT) effect, which can effectively remove overexpressed GSH by glutathione peroxidase-like activity, reduce the antioxidant capacity of biofilm, and enhance PDT. The platform had excellent photothermal performance (photothermal conversion efficiency was 55.7 %) and photothermal stability. The inhibition rate of two MDR bacteria was more than 96 %, and the biofilm clearance rate was more than 90 % (150 µg/mL). In the animal model of MDR S. aureus infected wound, after 100 µL SBC@ZIF-8+NIR (150 µg/mL) treatment, the wound area of mice was reduced by 95 % and nearly healed. The serum biochemical indexes and H&E staining results were within the normal range, indicating that the platform could promote wound healing and had good biosafety. In this study, we designed and synthesized multifunctional nanoplatforms with good anti-drug-resistant bacteria effect and elucidated the molecular mechanism of its anti-drug-resistant bacteria. It lays a foundation for clinical application in treating wound infection and promoting wound healing.

Nanomaterials with biomimetic catalytic abilities have attracted significant attention. However, the stereoselectivity of natural enzymes determined by their unique configurations is difficult to imitate. In this work, a kind of chiral CuxCoyS-CuzS nanoflowers (L/D-Pen-NFs) is developed, using porous CuxCoyS nanoparticles (NPs) as stamens, CuzS sheets as petals, and chiral penicillamine as surface stabilizers. Compared to the natural laccase enzyme, L/D-Pen-NFs exhibit significant advantages in catalytic efficiency, stability against harsh environments, recyclability, and convenience in construction. Most importantly, they display high enantioselectivity toward chiral neurotransmitters, which is proved by L- and D-Pen-NFs' different catalytic efficiencies toward chiral enantiomers. L-Pen-NFs are more efficient in catalyzing the oxidation of L-epinephrine and L-dopamine compared with D-Pen-NFs. However, their catalytic efficiency in oxidizing L-norepinephrine and L-DOPA is lower than that of D-Pen-NFs. The reason for the difference in catalytic efficiency is the distinct binding affinities between CuxCoyS-CuzS nano-enantiomers and chiral molecules. This work can spur the development of chiral nanostructures with biomimetic functions.

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
Nanocatalytic medicine, which aims to accurately target and effectively treat tumors through intratumoral in situ catalytic reactions triggered by tumor-specific environments or markers, is an emerging technology. However, the relative lack of catalytic activity of nanoenzymes in the tumor microenvironment (TME) has hampered their use in biomedical applications. Therefore, it is crucial to develop a highly sensitive probe that specifically responds to the TME or disease markers in the TME for precision diagnosis and treatment of diseases. In this work, a chiral photoacoustic (PA) nanoprobe (D/L-Ce@MoO3) based on the H2O2-catalyzed TME activation reaction was constructed in a one-step method using D-cysteine (D-Cys) or L-cysteine (L-Cys), polymolybdate, and cerium nitrate as raw materials. The designed and synthesized D/L-Ce@MoO3 chiral nanoprobe can perform in situ, non-invasive, and precise imaging of pharmacological acute liver injury. In vivo and in vitro experiments have shown that the D/L-Ce@MoO3 probe had chiral properties, the CD signal decreased upon reaction with H2O2, and the absorption and PA signals increased with increasing H2O2 concentration. This is because of the catalytic reaction between Ce ions doped in the nanoenzyme and the high expression of H2O2 caused by drug-induced liver injury to produce ·OH, which has a strong oxidizing property to kill tumor cells and destroy the Mo-S bond in the probe, thus converting the chiral probe into an achiral polyoxometalate (POM) with PA signal.
RESUMO
A sandwich-structured composite nanoenzyme (NH2-MIL-101(Fe)@Au@MIP) was prepared using molecularly imprinted polymers, metal-organic frameworks, and gold nanoparticles and a highly selective glutathione (GSH) colorimetric sensor was constructed. The inner part of the composite nanoenzymes is a metal-organic framework loaded with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), NH2-MIL-101(Fe)@Au, which has superior peroxidase-like activity compared with NH2-MIL-101(Fe). This is due to the surface plasmon resonance effect of AuNPs. GSH can form strong Au-S bonds with AuNPs, which can significantly reduce the enzymatic activity of NH2-MIL-101(Fe)@Au, thereby changing the absorbance at 450 nm of the sensing system. The degree of change in absorbance is correlated with the concentration of GSH. In the outer part, the molecularly imprinted polymer with oxidized glutathione (GSSG) as a dummy template provided specific pores, which significantly improved the selectivity of the sensing system. The sensor showed good GSH sensing performance in the range 1 ~ 50 µM with a lower limit of detection (LOD) of 0.231 µM and good sensing performance in fetal bovine serum, indicating its high potential for clinical diagnostic applications.

A novel colorimetric aptasensor assay based on the excellent magnetic responsiveness and oxidase-like activity of Fe3O4@MIL-100(Fe) was developed. Fe3O4@MIL-100(Fe) absorbed with aptamer and blocked by BSA served as capture probe for selective isolation and enrichment of Listeria monocytogenes one of the most common and dangerous foodborne pathogenic bacteria. The aptamer absorbed on Fe3O4@MIL-100(Fe) was further used as signal probe that specifically binds with target bacteria conjugation of capture probe for colorimetric detection of Listeria monocytogenes, taking advantages of its oxidase-like activity. The linear range of the detection of Listeria monocytogenes was from 102 to 107 CFU mL-1, with the limit of detection as low as 14 CFU mL-1. The approach also showed good feasibility for detection of Listeria monocytogenes in milk and meat samples. The spiked recoveries were in the range 81-114% with relative standard deviations ranging from 1.28 to 5.19%. Thus, this work provides an efficient, convenient, and practical tool for selective isolation and colorimetric detection of Listeria monocytogenes in food.

Deep cutaneous fungal infection (DCFI) is difficult to be treated by the traditional topical application due to low drug transdermal efficiency, poor fungicidal effect, and easy to develop drug resistance. Here, we report a novel biodegradable microneedle patch (CuS/PAF-26 MN) for DCFI treatment. CuS/PAF-26 MN is composed of hyaluronic acid (HA) and sodium carboxymethylcellulose (CMC-Na), which can simultaneously deliver copper sulfide nanoenzyme (CuS NE) and antimicrobial peptide (PAF-26). CuS NE catalyzes hydrogen peroxide to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS), and PAF-26 directly destroys the cell membrane of fungi. The combination of ROS toxicity produced by CuS NE and the destruction of fungal membrane by PAF-26 shows strong antifungal activities without drug resistance. The antifungal effect of CuS/PAF-26 MN is significantly superior to that of traditional ointment, CuS MN or PAF-26 MN in a DCFI mouse model. Therefore, CuS/PAF-26 MN shows a promising application prospect for treating DCFI.

As an essential indicator of liver function, bilirubin is of great significance for clinical diagnosis. A non-enzymatic sensor has been established for sensitive bilirubin detection based on the bilirubin oxidation catalyzed by unlabeled gold nanocages (GNCs). GNCs with dual-localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) peaks were prepared by a one-pot method. One peak around 500 nm was ascribed to gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), and the other located in the near-infrared region was the typical peak of GNCs. The catalytic oxidation of bilirubin by GNCs was accompanied by the disruption of cage structure, releasing free AuNPs from the nanocage. This transformation changed the dual peak intensities in opposite trend, and made it possible to realize the colorimetric sensing of bilirubin in a ratiometric mode. The absorbance ratios showed good linearity to bilirubin concentrations in the range of 0.20~3.60 µmol/L with a detection limit of 39.35 nM (3σ, n = 3). The sensor exhibited excellent selectivity for bilirubin over other coexisting substances. Bilirubin in real human serum samples was detected with recoveries ranging from 94.5 to 102.6%. The method for bilirubin assay is simple, sensitive and without complex biolabeling.

Carbon dots (C-Dots), with unique properties from tunable photoluminescence to biocompatibility, show wide applications in biotechnology, optoelectronic device and catalysis. Chiral C-Dots are expected to have strongly chirality-dependent biological and catalytic properties. For chiral C-Dots, a clear structure and quantitative structure-property relationship need to be clarified. Here, chiral C-Dots were fabricated by electrooxidation polymerization from serine enantiomers. The oxidized serine has a reversed chiral configuration to serine, which leads to the chiral C-Dots possessing inverse handedness compared with their raw materials. Electron circular dichroism spectrum, together with other diverse characterization techniques and theoretical calculations, confirmed that these chiral C-Dots (2-7 nm) have a well-defined primary structure of polycyclic dipeptide and possess a spatial structure with a c-axis of hexagonal symmetry and two cyclic dipeptides as the spatial structural unit. These chiral C-Dots also show enantioselective catalytic activity on DOPA enantiomers oxidation.

Bladder cancer is a common malignancy in the urinary system. Defects of drug molecules in bladder during treatment, such as passive diffusion, rapid clearance of periodic urination, poor adhesion and permeation abilities, lead to low delivery efficiency of conventional drugs and high recurrence rate of disease. In this study, we designed multi-responsive mesoporous polydopamine (PDA) composite nanorods cooperating with nano-enzyme and photosensitiser for intensive immunotherapy of bladder cancer. The strongly adhesive mesoporous PDA with wheat germ agglutinin on nanoparticles could specifically adhere to epithelial glycocalyx and made the nanoparticles aggregate in urinary pathways. Meanwhile, 2,3-dimethylmaleic anhydride could be hydrolysed in acidic conditions of tumour microenvironment, giving it a positive charge (charge reversal), which is more amenable to enter cancer cells. Afterwards, manganese dioxide nanorods could catalyse the reaction of excess H2 O2 in tumour microenvironment to generate active oxygen, so as to change the hypoxic environment in tumour, and achieve a pH-responsive for slow release of PD-L1. After the ICG was irradiated by infrared light, a large amount of singlet oxygen was generated, thereby enhancing the therapeutic effect and reducing toxicity in vivo. Besides, mesoporous PDA with indocyanine green photothermal agent could have a local heat up quickly under the near-infrared light to kill cancer cells, thereby enhancing therapeutic efficacy. Accordingly, this mesoporous PDA composite nanorods shed a light on bladder tumour treatment.

An electrochemical sensor based on dual functional Cu2+-modified metal-organic framework nanoparticles (Cu2+-NMOFs) for sensitive detection of bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is reported. Cu2+-NMOFs were prepared and characterized by SEM, EDS, XRD, and XPS. In this LPS sensor, LPS firstly immobilized in gold nanoparticles/reduced graphene oxide by C18 alkane thiol chains, since the LPS can interact with the C18 alkyl chains by strong intermolecular interactions. Then the Cu2+-NMOFs were captured by the anionic groups of the carbohydrate portions of LPS molecules and played a vital role of recognition unit. More importantly, the Cu2+-NMOFs can catalyze dopamine oxidation to generate aminochrome, resulting in a strong electrochemical oxidation signal. The electrochemical sensor based on dual functional Cu2+-NMOFs was investigated by differential pulse voltammetry, and the stripping peak currents of dopamine oxidized to aminochrome were used to monitor the level of LPS. The developed method demonstrated a wide linear range from 0.0015 to 750 ng/mL with a limit of detection of 6.1 × 10-4 ng/mL. The fabricated sensor was applied to detect LPS in mouse blood serum and satisfactory results were achieved. Compared to other detection schemes by using the LPS-binding proteins, peptides, and aptamer, the proposed LPS determination based on the catalytic peroxidase-mimicking NMOFs has some advantages such as good reproducibility, low detection limit, and excellent specificity. Graphical abstract An electrochemical sensor based on dual functional Cu2+-modified metal-organic framework was developed for detection of bacterial lipopolysaccharide. This sensor combined a metal ion-based target recognition and electrocatalytic detection, and provided a high sensitive strategy for detection of lipopolysaccharide.

Hypoxanthine is a promising index for evaluating the freshness of various aquatic products. Combined the hydrogels containing upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs), Co3O4 NPs, and N-ethyl-N-(3-sulfopropyl)-3-methylaniline sodium salt/4-amino-antipyrine (TOPS/4-AAP) with a smartphone, a portable sensor was developed for the convenient, sensitive detection of hypoxanthine. With the H2O2 from xanthine oxidase (XOD)-catalyzed reactions of hypoxanthine, the fluorescence of UCNPs was effectively quenched by the purple product produced from the oxidization of TOPS/4-AAP catalyzed by Co3O4 NPs exhibiting peroxidase activity, among which the color change could be transformed into digital signals for quantification of hypoxanthine. The Green value in the RGB analysis of the fluorescence image was negatively proportional to hypoxanthine concentration in the range of 2.5-20 mg/L with a detection limit of 0.69 mg/L and a quantitation limit of 2.30 mg/L. Finally, this sensor was applied for hypoxanthine detection in real aquatic products, showing potential application for freshness evaluation of aquatic products.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated therapeutic strategies, including chemodynamic therapy (CDT), photodynamic therapy (PDT), and their combination, are effective for treating cancer. Developing a nanoreactor with combined functions of catalase (CAT) and peroxidase (POD) that can simultaneously convert excess H2O2 in tumors into O2 required for type II PDT and hydroxyl radicals (â¢OH) for CDT can help achieve combined therapy. Here, we reported on a safe Fe2O3/CNx nanoreactor with dual enzyme simulated activity, in which CNx sheet was the carrier and reducing agent to convert Fe2O3 to Fe2+. After modified by MgO2 and photosensitizer Ce6, MgO2-Fe2O3/CNx-Ce6 (MFCC) platform integrated multiple functions, including photosensitizer delivery, compensated H2O2 continuous supply, relieve of hypoxia, generation of â¢OH and consumption of GSH into a single formulation. Under 660â¯nm irradiation for 4â¯min, MFCC actives more ROS to conduct PDT/CDT, leading to the remarkable reduced survival rate of breast cancer cells to 14â¯%. Due to the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect, MFCC can retain and accumulate at the tumor site of mice for a longer period that inhibit the expression of tumor angiogenic factors, suppress tumor neovascularization, and suppress the proliferation and growth of tumor cells.

Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease that can result in the irreversible loss of tooth-supporting tissues and elevate the likelihood and intensity of systemic diseases. The presence of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and associated related oxidative stress is intricately linked to the progression and severity of periodontal inflammation. Targeted removal of local ROS may serve to attenuate inflammation, improve the unfavorable periodontal microenvironment and potentially reverse ensuing pathological cascades. These ROS scavenging nanoparticles, which possess additional characteristics such as anti-inflammation and osteogenic differentiation, are highly sought after for the treatment of periodontitis. In this study, negative charged human serum albumin-crosslinked manganese-doped self-assembling Prussian blue nanoparticles (HSA-MDSPB NPs) were fabricated. These nanoparticles demonstrate the ability to scavenge multiple ROS including superoxide anion, free hydroxyl radicals, singlet oxygen and hydrogen peroxide. Additionally, HSA-MDSPB NPs exhibit the capacity to alleviate inflammation in gingiva and alveolar bone both in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, HSA-MDSPB NPs have been shown to play a role in promoting the polarization of macrophages from the M1 to M2 phenotype, resulting in reduced production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. More attractively, HSA-MDSPB NPs have been demonstrated to enhance cellular osteogenic differentiation. These properties of HSA-MDSPB NPs contribute to decreased inflammation, extracellular matrix degradation and bone loss in periodontal tissue. In conclusion, the multifunctional nature of HSA-MDSPB NPs provides a promising therapeutic approach for the treatment of periodontitis.
RESUMO
Cerium oxide (CeO2-x) performs well in photothermal and catalytic properties due to its abundance of oxygen vacancies. Based on this, we designed a thermosensitive therapeutic nanoplatform to achieve continuous circular drug release in tumor. It can solve the limitation caused by insufficient substrate in the process of tumor treatment. Briefly, CeO2-x and camptothecin (CPT) were wrapped in an agarose hydrogel, which could be melted by the photothermal effect of CeO2-x. At the same time, the local temperature increase provided photothermal treatment, which could induce the apoptosis of tumor cell. After that, CPT was released to damage the DNA in tumor cells to realize chemical treatment. In addition, CPT could active nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide oxidase to react with O2 to increase the intracellular H2O2. After that, the exposed CeO2-x could catalyze H2O2 to generate cytotoxic reactive oxygen species for chemodynamic therapy. More importantly, CeO2-x could catalyze H2O2 to produce O2, which could combine with the catalytic action of CPT to construct a substrate self-cycling nanoenzyme system. Overall, this self-cycling nanoplatform released hypoxia in the tumor microenvironment and built a multimode tumor treatment, which achieved an ideal antitumor affect.

The conventional silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) are characterized with high loading rate and stacking phenomenon, leading to shedding caused biotoxicity and low catalytic efficiency. This seriously hinders their application in biomedicine. Here, we modified the highly dispersible Ag NPs and Ag single-atoms (SAs) synthesis by combining the halloysite clay nanotubes (HNTs) and dodecahydro-dodecaborate (closo-[B12H12]2-) to increase the biocompatible properties and decrease the loading rate. This novel Ag single-atom nanoenzyme alongside Ag NPs nanoenzyme avoid the elevated-temperature calcination while maintaining the exceptionally high-level efficiency of Ag utilization via the reducibility and coordination stabilization of closo-[B12H12]2- and HNTs. With theoretical calculation and electron paramagnetic resonance, we confirmed that both Ag SAzymes and Ag NPs in HNT@B12H12@Ag nanoenzyme are capable decompose the H2O2 into hydroxyl radical (·OH). For the application, we investigated the catalytic activity in the tumor cells and antitumor effects of HNT@B12H12@Ag nanoenzyme both in vitro and in vivo, and confirmed that it effectively suppressed melanoma growth through ·OH generation, with limited biotoxicity. This study provides a novel Ag nanoenzyme synthesis approach to increase the possibility of its clinical application.

The substrates of oxidase are biologically essential substances that are closely associated with human physiological health. However, current biosensing methods suffer from tough recyclability and undesired denaturation of enzyme due to impurity interference. Herein, we have developed a visual and reusable biosensor for detecting substrate using glucose oxidase (GOx) as a model oxidase. GOx was immobilized onto gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) at -20 °C in one step without additional reagents. The resulting nano-enzyme generated coloimetric signals by coupling with horseradish peroxidase (HRP) using TMB as the substrate. Our results demonstrated that the immobilized GOx exhibited satisfactory sensitivity (0.68 µM) for glucose detection and higher inherent stability than free GOx under harsh conditions, enabling reliable detection of glucose in complex fluids (colored beverages and saliva). Furthermore, the nano-enzyme retained 80 % activity even after four cycles of catalytic oxidation. This strategy constructs a universal biosensor for substrates with nano-enzyme which rely only on intrinsic cysteine within the oxidase while avoiding functional handle modification.

Diabetic wounds has a gradually increasing incidence and morbidity. Excessive inflammation due to immune imbalance leads to delayed wound healing. Here, we reveal the interconnection between activation of the NLRP3 inflammatory pathway in endotheliocyte and polarization of macrophages via the cGAS-STING pathway in the oxidative microenvironment. To enhance the immune-regulation based on repairing mitochondrial oxidative damage, a zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 coated with cerium dioxide that carries Rhoassociated protein kinase inhibition Y-27632 (CeO2-Y@ZIF-8) is developed. It is encapsulated in a photocross-linkable hydrogel (GelMA) with cationic quaternary ammonium salt groups modified to endow the antibacterial properties (CeO2-Y@ZIF-8@Gel). CeO2 with superoxide dismutase and catalase activities can remove excess reactive oxygen species to limit mitochondrial damage and Y-27632 can repair damaged mitochondrial DNA, thus improving the proliferation of endotheliocyte. After endotheliocyte uptakes CeO2-Y@ZIF-8 NPs to degrade peroxides into water and oxygen in cells and mitochondria, NLRP3 inflammatory pathway is inhibited and the leakage of oxidatively damaged mitochondrial DNA (Ox-mtDNA, a damage-associated molecular pattern) through mPTP decreases. Futhermore, as the cGAS-STING pathway activated by Ox-mtDNA down-regulated, the M2 phenotype polarization and anti-inflammatory factors increase. Collectively, CeO2-Y@ZIF-8@Gel, through remodulating the crosstalk between macrophage reprogramming and angiogenesis to alleviate inflammation in the microenvironment and accelerates wound healing.
RESUMO
Immunotherapy is a promising mainstream approach in anti-tumor therapy. It boasts advantages such as durable responses and lower side effects. However, there are still some limitations to be addressed. Current cancer immunotherapy has shown low response rates due to inadequate immunogenicity of certain tumor cells. To address these challenges, an acid-specific nanoreactor was developed, designed to induce immunogenicity by triggering ferroptosis in tumor cells. The nanoreactor integrates glucose oxidase (GOx) with a single-atom nanoenzyme (SAE), which exhibits high peroxidase (POD)-like activity in the acidic tumor microenvironment (TME). This specific acid-sensitivity transforms endogenous hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) into cytotoxic hydroxyl radicals (â¢OH). GOx enhances the POD-like SAE activity in the nanoreactor by metabolizing glucose in tumor cells, producing gluconic acid and H2O2. This nanoreactor induces high levels of oxidative stress within tumor cells through the synergistic action of SAE and GOx, leading to depletion of GSH and subsequently triggering ferroptosis. The resulting nanoreactor-induced ferroptosis leads to immunogenic cell death (ICD) and significantly recruits T lymphocyte infiltration in tumor tissues. This study was designed with the concept of triggering ferroptosis-dependent ICD mechanism in bladder cancer cells, and developed an acid-specific nanoreactor to enhance the immunotherapy efficacy for bladder cancer, which introduces a novel approach for immunotherapy of bladder cancer.

Titanium (Ti) and titanium alloy are the most common metal materials in clinical orthopedic surgery. However, in the initial stage of surgery and implantation, the production of excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) can induce oxidative stress (OS) microenvironment. OS will further inhibit the growth of new bone, resulting in surgical failure. In this study, based on the fact that nanoscale manganese dioxide (MnO2) can show H2O2-like enzyme activity, a MnO2 nanocoating was prepared on mciro-nano structured surface of Ti substrate via a two-step method of alkaline thermal and hydrothermal treatment. The results of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffractometer (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) showed that the nano-MnO2 coating was successfully fabricated on the surface of Ti substrate. The results of measurement of H2O2, dissolved O2 and intracellular ROS in vitro showed that the treated Ti substrate could efficiently eliminate H2O2 and reduce ROS. Furthermore, the modified Ti substrate could promote the early adhesion, proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of MSCs, which was demonstrated by experimental results of cell morphology, cell viability, alkaline phosphatase, collagen, and mineralization deposition. The results of quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) of MSCs adhered the modified Ti substrate showed that the expression of genes related to osteogenic differentiation significantly increased. More importantly, the modified Ti implant could eliminate ROS at the injury site, reduce OS and promote the regeneration of bone tissue, which was demonstrated via hematoxylin/eosin, Masson's trichrome and immunohistochemical staining. In conclusion, the modified Ti implant presented here had the effect of reducing OS and promoting osseointegration. Relevant research ideas and results provide new methods for the research and development of functional implants, which have potential application value in the field of orthopedics.
