Abstract
The development of antiepileptic drugs is still a long process. In this study, heparin-modified superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (UFH-SPIONs) were prepared, and their antiepileptic effect and underlying mechanism were investigated. UFH-SPIONs are stable, homogeneous nanosystems with antioxidant enzyme activity that are able to cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and enriched in hippocampal epileptogenic foci. The pretreatment with UFH-SPIONs effectively prolonged the onset of seizures and reduced seizure severity after lithium/pilocarpine (LP)-induced seizures in rats. The pretreatment with UFH-SPIONs significantly decreased the expression of inflammatory factors in hippocampal tissues, including IL-6, IL-1β, and TNF-α. LP-induced oxidative stress in hippocampal tissues was in turn reduced upon pretreatment with UFH-SPIONs, as evidenced by an increase in the levels of the antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) and a decrease in the level of lipid peroxidation (MDA). Moreover, the LP-induced upregulation of apoptotic cells was decreased upon pretreatment with UFH-SPIONs. Together, these observations suggest that the pretreatment with UFH-SPIONs ameliorates LP-induced seizures and downregulates the inflammatory response and oxidative stress, which exerts neuronal protection during epilepsy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) have the highest mortality worldwide. Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) and their cardiomyocyte derivatives (hPSC-CMs) offer a valuable resource for disease modeling, pharmacological screening, and regenerative therapy. While most CVDs are linked to significant over-production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), the effects of current antioxidants targeting excessive ROS are limited. Nanotechnology is a powerful tool to develop antioxidants with improved selectivity, solubility, and bioavailability to prevent or treat various diseases related to oxidative stress. Cerium oxide nanozymes (CeONZs) can effectively scavenge excessive ROS by mimicking the activity of endogenous antioxidant enzymes. This study aimed to assess the nanotoxicity of CeONZs and their potential antioxidant benefits in stressed human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) and their derived cardiomyocytes (hESC-CMs). RESULTS CeONZs demonstrated reliable nanosafety and biocompatibility in hESCs and hESC-CMs within a broad range of concentrations. CeONZs exhibited protective effects on the cell viability of hESCs and hESC-CMs by alleviating excessive ROS-induced oxidative stress. Moreover, CeONZs protected hESC-CMs from doxorubicin (DOX)-induced cardiotoxicity and partially ameliorated the insults from DOX in neonatal rat cardiomyocytes (NRCMs). Furthermore, during hESCs culture, CeONZs were found to reduce ROS, decrease apoptosis, and enhance cell survival without affecting their self-renewal and differentiation potential. CONCLUSIONS CeONZs displayed good safety and biocompatibility, as well as enhanced the cell viability of hESCs and hESC-CMs by shielding them from oxidative damage. These promising results suggest that CeONZs may be crucial, as a safe nanoantioxidant, to potentially improve the therapeutic efficacy of CVDs and be incorporated into regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Free radicals are secreted following skin damage and cause oxidative stress and inflammatory reactions that increase the difficulty of wound healing. In this study, copper-based nanozyme Cu2 Se nanosheets (NSs) are synthesized by an anion-exchange strategy and apply to wounds with F127 hydrogels to investigate the healing effect of this nanozyme composite hydrogels on wounds. Cu2 Se NSs have a large number of catalytically active centers, are simple to synthesize, require few reaction conditions and have a short synthesis cycle. In vitro experiments have shown that Cu2 Se NSs possess superoxide dismutase (SOD)-like activity and nitrogen radical scavenging activity and promote angiogenesis and fibroblast migration. The doping of Cu2 Se NSs into the F127 hydrogel does not have a significantly affect on the properties of the hydrogel. This hybridized hydrogel not only adapts to the irregular and complex morphology of acute wounds but also prolongs the duration of nanozyme action on the wound, thus promoting wound healing. Transcriptomic analysis further reveals the potential therapeutic mechanism of the Cu2 Se/F127 hydrogel in promoting acute wound healing. Animal experiments have shown that the Cu2 Se/F127 hydrogel has good biosafety. The Cu2 Se/F127 hydrogel provides an innovative idea for the development of hydrogel dressings for the treatment of acute wounds.

Abstract
Superoxide dismutase (SOD) can convert active oxygen to oxygen or hydrogen peroxide, and recent research has suggested that it can protect against lung damage and fibrosis. Clinical applications based on SOD remain limited however due to costs and low stability. We here investigated a potential new therapeutic delivery system for this enzyme in the form of SOD-overexpressing Bacillus amyloliquefaciens spores which we introduced into a bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis mouse model. This treatment significantly alleviated the disease, as quantified using a hydroxyproline assay, at 107 colony forming unit (CFU) of Bacillus spores per day. Exposure of the mice to the spores was further found to decrease the lung mRNA levels of CTGF, Col1a1, α-SMA, TGF-β, TNF-α, and IL-6, and the protein levels of TGF-β, Smad2/3, αSMA and Col1a1, all major indicators of pulmonary fibrosis. Survival benefits, and reduced byproducts of lipid peroxidase such as malondialdehyde and 4-hydroxynen, were also noted in the treated animals. The beneficial effects of these Bacillus spores on pulmonary fibrosis were further found to be greater than the equivalent free SOD concentration. Immunofluorescence staining of primary pulmonary fibroblasts extracted from the bleomycin-induced model showed decreased αSMA expression following the in vivo treatment with SOD-overexpressing Bacillus. Our treatment approach SOD through Bacillus spores shows beneficial effects against pulmonary fibrosis, combined with the suppression of the SMAD/TGF-β pathway, suggesting that it is an effective novel delivery route for antioxidants.

Abstract
The development of rapid, noninvasive diagnostics to detect lung diseases is a great need after the COVID-2019 outbreak. The nanotechnology-based approach has improved imaging and facilitates the early diagnosis of inflammatory lung diseases. The multifunctional properties of nanoprobes enable better spatial-temporal resolution and a high signal-to-noise ratio in imaging. Targeted nanoimaging agents have been used to bind specific tissues in inflammatory lungs for early-stage diagnosis. However, nanobased imaging approaches for inflammatory lung diseases are still in their infancy. This review provides a solution-focused approach to exploring medical imaging technologies and nanoprobes for the detection of inflammatory lung diseases. Prospects for the development of contrast agents for lung disease detection are also discussed.

Abstract
Human serum albumin (HSA) nanoparticles are promising biocompatible, nontoxic, and non-immunogenic platforms for biomedical applications such as bioimaging and drug and gene delivery. The development of nonviral gene delivery vectors is a great challenge for efficient and safe gene therapy. Sulforaphane (SF) can stimulate the expression of antioxidant genes via activation of a nuclear transcription factor, the erythroid-2 related factor 2 (Nrf-2). Here, we use polyethyleneimine (PEI)-stabilized HSA nanoparticles to stimulate endogenous antioxidant defense mechanisms in lung epithelial cells L-132 through the combinatorial effect of SF drug and antioxidant superoxide dismutase 1 gene (pSOD1 plasmid) delivered by HSA-PEI-SF-pSOD1 nanocomposites (NCs). The developed NCs demonstrated high biocompatibility (L-132 viability, >95%, MTT assay) and high antioxidant activity because of efficient entry of the SOD1 gene and SF-loaded NCs at a very low (3 μg) dose in L-132 cells. A high transfection efficiency of L-132 cells (∼66%, fluorescent microscopy) was obtained with the GFP-tagged transgene SOD1-GFP. We speculate that the antioxidant activity of HSA-PEI-SF-pSOD1 NCs in L-132 cells is due to the initial release of SF followed by subsequent SOD1 gene expression after three to four days of incubation. Hence, the developed HSA-based NCs can be efficient biocompatible nanocarriers for safe and effective drug and gene delivery applications to treat diseases with high oxidative stress due to combinatorial SF and SOD1 gene mechanisms.

Synthesis and Application of Albumin Nanoparticles Loaded with Prussian Blue Nanozymes. COLLOIDS AND INTERFACES 2022.

Abstract
Prussian blue nanozymes exhibit peroxidase-like catalytic activity and are therefore considered a stable and inexpensive alternative to natural peroxidases in the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). In this work, we propose a robust method of Prussian blue nanozyme functionalization, which relies on the entrapment of nanozymes into albumin nanoparticles. The principle of the method is the addition of ethanol to a solution that contains albumin and nanozymes. At a high ethanol concentration solubility of albumin decreases, resulting in the formation of albumin nanoparticles loaded with nanozymes. The hydrodynamic diameter of nanoparticles was between 120 and 230 nm and depended on the nanozyme-to-BSA ratio. Encapsulation efficiency of nanozymes reached 96–99% and up to 190 μg of nanozymes were loaded per 1 mg of nanoparticles. Nanoparticles were stable at pH 5.5–7.5 and upon long-term storage in deionized water. Excellent reproducibility of the synthesis procedure was confirmed by the preparation of three individual batches of Prussian-blue-loaded BSA nanoparticles with almost identical properties. Nanoparticles were functionalized with monoclonal antibodies using glutaraldehyde cross-linking. The resulting conjugates were applied as labels in an ELISA-like assay of tumor marker prostate-specific antigen (PSA). The lower limit of detection was below 1 ng/mL, which enables measurement of PSA in the range of clinically relevant concentrations.

Abstract
The physiochemical properties of drugs used in treating inflammation-associated lung diseases (i.e., asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, pulmonary fibrosis) play an important role in determining the effectiveness of formulations. Most commonly used drugs are associated with low solubility, low stability and rapid clearance, thus resulting in low bioavailability and therapeutic index. This review focuses on current trends and development of drugs (i.e., corticosteroids, long-acting β-agonists and biomacromolecules such as DNA, siRNA and mRNA) employed to treat inflammatory lung diseases. In addition, this review includes the current challenges of and future perspective with regard to nanotechnology in the treatment of inflammatory lung diseases.

Abstract
Superoxide dismutases (SODs) are a group of metalloenzymes that catalyze the dismutation of superoxide radicals (O2˙-) into hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and oxygen (O2). As the first line of defense against reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated damage, SODs are expected to play an important role in the treatment of oxidative stress-related diseases. However, the clinical applications of SODs have been severely limited by their structural instability and high cost. Compared with natural enzymes, nanozymes, nanomaterials with enzyme-like activity, are more stable, and economical, can be easily modified and their activities can be adjusted. Due to their excellent characteristics, nanozymes have attracted widespread attention in recent years and are expected to become effective substitutes for natural enzymes in many application fields. Importantly, some nanozymes with SOD-like activity have been developed and proved to have a mitigating effect on diseases caused by oxidative stress. These studies on SOD-like nanozymes provide a feasible strategy for breaking through the dilemma of SOD clinical applications. However, at present, the specific catalytic mechanism of SOD-like nanozymes is still unclear, and many important issues need to be resolved. Although there are many comprehensive reviews to introduce the overall situation of the nanozyme field, the research on SOD-like nanozymes still lacks a systematic review. From the structure and mechanism of natural SOD enzymes to the structure and regulation of SOD-like nanozymes, and then to the measurement and application of nanozymes, this review systematically summarizes the recent progress in SOD-like nanozymes. The existing shortcomings and possible future research hotspots in the development of SOD-like nanozymes are summarized and prospected. We hope that this review would provide ideas and inspirations for further research on the catalytic mechanism and rational design of SOD-like nanozymes.

Abstract
The preparation of an antioxidant hybrid material by controlled heteroaggregation of manganese oxide nanoparticles (MnO2 NPs) and sulfate-functionalized polystyrene latex (SL) beads was accomplished. Negatively charged MnO2 NPs were prepared by precipitation and initially functionalized with poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDADMAC) polyelectrolyte to induce charge reversal allowing decoration of oppositely charged SL surfaces via simple mixing. The PDADMAC-functionalized MnO2 NPs (PMn) aggregated with the SL particles leading to the formation of negatively charged, neutral and positively charged (SPMn) composites. The charge neutralization resulted in rapidly aggregating dispersions, while stable samples were observed once the composites possessed sufficiently high negative and positive charge, below and above the charge neutralization point, respectively. The antioxidant assays revealed that SL served as a suitable substrate and that the PDADMAC functionalization and immobilization of MnO2 NPs did not compromise their catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase (SOD)-like activities, which were also maintained within a wide temperature range. The obtained SPMn composite is expected to be an excellent candidate as an antioxidant material for the efficient scavenging of reactive oxygen species at both laboratory and larger scales, even under harsh conditions, where natural antioxidants do not function.

Abstract
Ceria (CeO2) nanozymes have drawn much attention in recent years due to their unique physiochemical properties and excellent biocompatibility. It is therefore very important to establish a simple and robust guideline to regulate CeO2 with desired multi-enzyme-mimicking activities that are ideal for practical bioapplications. In this work, the multi-enzyme-mimicking activities of CeO2 were regulated in a facile manner by a wet-chemical method with different synthesis temperatures. Interestingly, a distinct response in multi-enzyme-mimicking activities of CeO2 was observed towards different synthesis temperatures. And the regulation was ascribed to the comprehensive effect of the oxygen species, size, and self-restoring abilities of CeO2. This study demonstrates that high-performance CeO2 can be rationally designed by a specific synthesis temperature, and the guidelines from radar chart analysis established here can advance the biomedical applications of ceria-based nanozymes.

Abstract
Nanozymes are nanomaterials with enzyme-like characteristics. As a new generation of artificial enzymes, nanozymes have the advantages of low cost, good stability, simple preparation, and easy storage, allowing them to overcome many of the limitations of natural enzymes in enzymatic therapy. Currently, most reported nanozymes exhibit oxidoreductase-like activities and can regulate redox balance in cells. Nanozymes with superoxide dismutase and catalase activity can be used to scavenge reactive oxygen species (ROS) for cell protection, while those with peroxidase and oxidase activity can generate ROS to kill harmful cells, such as tumor cells and bacteria. In this review, we summarize recent progress in nanozyme-based medicine for enzymatic therapy and highlight the opportunities and challenges in this field for future study.

Abstract
With the rapid development of biology and nanotechnology, designing nanomaterials with intrinsic enzyme-like activities has attracted huge attention in recent years. Herein, for the first time, we use zein as a new protein precursor to prepare N-rich carbonized zein nanosheets (C-Zein) via facile pyrolysis. Zein is an inert, biodegradable and sustainable natural biopolymer. After high-temperature carbonization, zein can be converted into highly catalytically active C-Zein, which can possess excellent peroxidase- and oxidase-like catalytic activities. Such intrinsic enzyme-like activities of C-Zein are closely related to its graphitization degree, the ratio of graphitic nitrogen and the formation of disordered graphene. Intriguingly, C-Zein also exhibits high photothermal conversion efficiency in the near-infrared (NIR) region. Coupling their unique photothermal and catalytic properties, the as-prepared C-Zein can act as a robust agent for synergistic photothermal-catalytic cancer treatment under the irradiation of NIR light. We expect that this work paves the way to use zein for designing efficient artificial enzymes and accelerate further growth in exploring its new biomedical and pharmaceutical applications.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the most prevalent obstructive lung disease worldwide characterized by decline in lung function. It is associated with airway obstruction, oxidative stress, chronic inflammation, mucus hypersecretion, and enhanced autophagy and cellular senescence. Cigarette smoke being the major risk factor, other secondary risk factors such as the exposure to air pollutants, occupational exposure to gases and fumes in developing countries, also contribute to the pathogenesis of COPD. Conventional therapeutic strategies of COPD are based on anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory drugs. However, traditional anti-oxidant pharmacological therapies are commonly used to alleviate the impact of COPD as they have many associated repercussions such as low diffusion rate and inappropriate drug pharmacokinetics. Recent advances in nanotechnology and stem cell research have shed new light on the current treatment of chronic airway disease. This review is focused on some of the anti-oxidant therapies currently used in the treatment and management of COPD with more emphasis on the recent advances in nanotechnology-based therapeutics including stem cell and gene therapy approaches for the treatment of chronic airway disease such as COPD and asthma.

Abstract
Applications of nanotechnology have gained progressive interest for regeneration of injured wound tissue. The aim of the present study was to evaluate effects of polyethylene glycol (PEG)-based nanocerium on excisional and incisional wound models in rats. For excisional wound healing model, 24 male white Wistar rats were randomized into 4 groups of 6 rats each: control group with creation of wounds and no treatment, PEG group with creation of wounds and dressing the wound with PEG, NanoCer group with application of 1 mL nanocerium on the wound, and PEG/NanoCer group with dressing the wound with PEG-based nanocerium. Wound size was measured on days 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, and 21 postsurgery. For incisional wound healing model, 24 healthy male Wistar rats were randomized into 4 groups of 6 rats each the same way in the excisional wound model. Reduction in wound area, hydroxyproline contents, and biomechanical parameters indicated that there was a significant difference ( P > .05) between PEG/NanoCer and other groups. Biomechanical testing was performed on day 9 postsurgery in the incisional model. Biochemical and quantitative histological studies demonstrated that there was a significant difference ( P > .05) between PEG/NanoCer and other groups. PEG/NanoCer offered potential advantages in wound healing acceleration and improvement through angiogenesis stimulation, fibroblast proliferation, and granulation tissue formation on early days of healing phases. Acceleration in wound repair was associated with earlier wound area reduction and enhanced tensile strength of damaged area by rearrangement of granulation tissue and collagen fibers. PEG-based nanocerium could have therapeutic benefits in wound healing.

Abstract
Multifunctional nanomaterials integrating therapeutic and imaging modalities in one platform have opened a new era in the present therapeutic strategies. In the present study, a multifunctional silk fibroin-based carrier has been designed for the delivery of antioxidant and imaging agents. One-step desolvation method was used to prepare sulforaphane (antioxidant drug) loaded silk fibroin nanoparticles (SFSNPs). These anionic SFSNPs were further coupled with cationic cerium oxide nanoparticles (CeNPs) and PEI passivated carbon dots (CDs) to form self-assembled CeNP-CD@SFSNPs nanocomposites. CDs were synthesized from mulberry leaves (Morus indica) as green source of carbon and bPEI as a passivating agent to get positively charged CDs. The CDs functioned as molecular probes by emitting green fluorescence while the presence of CeNPs augmented the antioxidant potential due to their unique redox property. Time-dependent in vitro release of sulforaphane was fast in acidic pH than under normal physiological conditions. Cytotoxicity studies were performed on L132 normal epithelial lung cell lines and A549 lung cancer cell lines to analyze the toxicity of the nanocomposites. Green fluorescence from the CDs facilitated in fluorescence microscopic imaging and cellular uptake studies. ROS scavenging capability was analyzed by exposing cells to H2O2 stress using flow cytometry and DCFH-DA staining. Overall, the synthesized CeNP-CD@SFSNPs nanocomposites efficiently reduced ROS levels by simultaneously enabling imaging of the cells. Thus, this CeNP-CD@SFSNPs nanocomposite could be a potential candidate for simultaneous imaging and drug delivery against oxidative stress.

Abstract
Phenolic contaminants (R-OH) are a category of highly toxic organic compounds that are widespread in aquatic ecosystems and can induce carcinogenic risk to wildlife and humans; natural enzymes as green catalysts are capable of step-polymerizing these compounds to produce diverse macromolecular self-coupling products via radical-mediated C-C and C-O-C bonding at either the ortho- or para-carbon position, thereby evading the bioavailability and ecotoxicity of these compounds. Intriguingly, certain artificial metal and metal-oxide nanomaterials are known as nanozymes. They not only possess the unique properties of nanomaterials but also display intrinsic enzyme-mimicking activities. These artificial nanozymes are expected to surmount the shortcomings, such as low stability, easy inactivation, difficult recycling, and high cost, of natural enzymes, thus contributing to eco-environmental restoration. This review highlights the available studies on the enzymatic characteristics and catalytic mechanisms of natural enzymes and artificial metal and metal-oxide nanozymes in the removal and transformation of R-OH. These advances will provide key research directions beneficial to the multifunctional applications of artificial nanozymes in aquatic ecosystems.

Abstract
Aim: To explore the potential therapeutic effect of yttrium oxide nanoparticles (Y2O3 NPs) on fulminant hepatic failure. Materials & methods: RAW264.7 cells and a lipopolysaccharide/D-galactosamine-induced hepatic failure murine model were used to assess the effects of Y2O3 NPs. Results: Y2O3 NPs exhibited anti-inflammatory activity by scavenging cellular reactive oxygen species and dampening reactive oxygen species-mediated NF-κB activation in vitro. A single intraperitoneal administration of Y2O3 NPs (30 mg/kg) enhanced hepatic antioxidant status and reduced oxidative stress and inflammatory response in lipopolysaccharide/galactosamine-induced mice. Y2O3 NPs also attenuated hepatic NF-κB activation, cell apoptosis and liver injury. Conclusion: Y2O3 NP administration could be used as a novel therapeutic strategy for treating fulminant hepatic failure and oxidative stress-related diseases.

Abstract
Abiotic and biotic stress induce the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which limit crop production. Little is known about ROS reduction through the application of exogenous scavengers. In this study, C60 fullerol, a free radical scavenger, was foliar applied to three-week-old cucumber plants (1 or 2 mg/plant) before exposure to copper ions (5 mg/plant). Results showed that C60 fullerols augmented Cu toxicity by increasing the influx of Cu ions into cells (170% and 511%, respectively, for 1 and 2 mg of C60 fullerols/plant). We further use metabolomics and proteomics to investigate the mechanism of plant response to C60 fullerols. Metabolomics revealed that C60 fullerols up-regulated antioxidant metabolites including 3-hydroxyflavone, 1,2,4-benzenetriol, and methyl trans-cinnamate, among others, while it down-regulated cell membrane metabolites (linolenic and palmitoleic acid). Proteomics analysis revealed that C60 fullerols up-regulated chloroplast proteins involved in water photolysis (PSII protein), light-harvesting (CAB), ATP production (ATP synthase), pigment fixation (Mg-PPIX), and electron transport ( Cyt b6f). Chlorophyll fluorescence measurement showed that C60 fullerols significantly accelerated the electron transport rate in leaves (13.3% and 9.4%, respectively, for 1 and 2 mg C60 fullerols/plant). The global view of the metabolic pathway network suggests that C60 fullerols accelerated electron transport rate, which induced ROS overproduction in chloroplast thylakoids. Plant activated antioxidant and defense pathways to protect the cell from ROS damaging. The revealed benefit (enhance electron transport) and risk (alter membrane composition) suggest a cautious use of C60 fullerols for agricultural application.

Abstract
Oxidative stress exerts a key influence in osteoporosis in part by inhibiting osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs). With their unique antioxidant properties and reported biocompatibility, cerium oxide (CeO2) ceramics exhibit promising potential for the treatment of osteoporosis resulting from oxidative stress. In this study, protective effects of CeO2-incorporated hydroxyapatite coatings (HA-10Ce and HA-30Ce) on the viability and osteogenic differentiation of H2O2-treated BMSCs were examined. CeO2-incorporated HA coatings enhanced cell viability and attenuated cell apoptosis caused by H2O2. An increase in CeO2 content in HA coatings better alleviated H2O2-induced inhibition of osteogenic differentiation by increasing alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, calcium deposition activity, and mRNA expression levels of osteogenesis markers runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), ALP, and osteocalcin (OCN) in BMSCs. Furthermore, the H2O2-induced decrease of gene and protein expressions of β-catenin and cyclin D1 in the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway was successfully rescued by the CeO2 incorporated HA coatings. Besides, the decreased expression of receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL) and the increased ratio of osteoprotegerin (OPG)/RANKL in BMSCs on the CeO2-modified coatings was observed, indicating the inhibition of osteoclastogenesis. The above results were mediated by the antioxidant properties of CeO2. The CeO2-incorporated HA coatings reversed the decreased superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, reduced reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, and suppressed the malondiadehyde (MDA) formation. The findings suggested that CeO2-modified HA coatings may be promising coating materials for osteoporotic bone regeneration.

Abstract
Nanoparticles (NPs) possess unique physical and chemical properties that make them appropriate for various applications. The structural alteration of metallic NPs leads to different biological functions, specifically resulting in different potentials for the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). The amount of ROS produced by metallic NPs correlates with particle size, shape, surface area, and chemistry. ROS possess multiple functions in cellular biology, with ROS generation a key factor in metallic NP-induced toxicity, as well as modulation of cellular signaling involved in cell death, proliferation, and differentiation. In this review, we briefly explained NP classes and their biomedical applications and describe the sources and roles of ROS in NP-related biological functions in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, we also described the roles of metal NP-induced ROS generation in stem cell biology. Although the roles of ROS in metallic NP-related biological functions requires further investigation, modulation and characterization of metallic NP-induced ROS production are promising in the application of metallic NPs in the areas of regenerative medicine and medical devices.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) induced oxidative stress is one of the major factors responsible for initiation of several intracellular toxic events that leads to cell death. Antioxidant enzymes defence system of the body is responsible for maintaining the oxidative balance and cellular homeostasis. Several diseases are promoted by the excessive oxidative stress caused by the impaired antioxidant defence system that leads to oxidant/antioxidant imbalance in the body. In order to restore or precise the aberrant antioxidant system, a large number of catalytic nanoparticles has been screened so far. Exceptional antioxidative activity of nanoceria made it as a potential antioxidative nano-agent for the effective scavenging of toxic ROS. In this work albumin coated nanoceria (ANC) was synthesized and further characterised by various physicochemical techniques. The antioxidant and superoxide dismutase (SOD) assay confirm that the albumin coating do not alter the antioxidant potential of ANC. The biocompatibility and protective efficacy of ANC against oxidative stress was investigated both in vitro and in vivo in human lung epithelial (L-132) cells and zebrafish embryos, respectively. The inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) analysis corroborates the uptake of ANC by the cells. Furthermore, the semi-quantitative gene expression studies confirmed that the ANC successfully defend the cells against oxidative stress by preserving the antioxidant system of the cells. Thus, the current work open up a new avenue for the development of improved antioxidant nano-drug therapies.

Abstract
Oxidative stress is a risk factor in the pathogenesis of osteoporosis, and plays a major role in bone regeneration of osteoporotic patients. Cerium oxide (CeO2) ceramics have the unique ability to protect various types of cells from oxidative damage, making them attractive for biomedical applications. In this study, we developed a plasma sprayed CeO2 coating with a hierarchical topography where ceria nanoparticles were superimposed in the micro-rough coating surface. The protective effects of the CeO2 coating on the response of osteoblasts to H2O2-induced oxidative stress have been demonstrated in terms of cell viability, apoptosis and differentiation. The CeO2 coating reversed the reduced superoxide dismutase activity, decreased reactive oxygen species production and suppressed malondialdehyde formation in H2O2-treated osteoblasts. It indicated that the CeO2 coating can preserve the intracellular antioxidant defense system. The cytocompatibility of the CeO2 coating was further assessed in vitro by cell viability assay and scanning electron microscopy analysis. Taken together, the CeO2 coating could provide an opportunity to be utilized as a potential candidate for bone regeneration under oxidative stress.
