Abstract
The industrial applications of enzymes are usually hindered by the high production cost, intricate reusability, and low stability in terms of thermal, pH, salt, and storage. Therefore, the de novo design of nanozymes that possess the enzyme mimicking biocatalytic functions sheds new light on this field. Here, we propose a facile one-pot synthesis approach to construct Cu-chelated polydopamine nanozymes (PDA-Cu NPs) that can not only catalyze the chromogenic reaction of 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DP) and 4-aminoantipyrine (4-AP), but also present enhanced photothermal catalytic degradation for typical textile dyes. Compared with natural laccase, the designed mimic has higher affinity to the substrate of 2,4-DP with Km of 0.13 mM. Interestingly, PDA-Cu nanoparticles are stable under extreme conditions (temperature, ionic strength, storage), are reusable for 6 cycles with 97 % activity, and exhibit superior substrate universality. Furthermore, PDA-Cu nanozymes show a remarkable acceleration of the catalytic degradation of dyes, malachite green (MG) and methylene blue (MB), under near-infrared (NIR) laser irradiation. These findings offer a promising paradigm on developing novel nanozymes for biomedicine, catalysis, and environmental engineering.

Integration of a biocompatible metal-phenolic network and fluorescence microspheres as labels for sensitive and stable detection of carbendazim with a lateral flow immunoassay. Food Chem 2024; 450:139260. [PMID: 38626714 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.139260] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/26/2023] [Revised: 04/02/2024] [Accepted: 04/03/2024] [Indexed: 04/18/2024]
Abstract
High fluorescence intensity microspheres such as aggregation-induced emission fluorescence microspheres (AIEFM) have improved the sensitivity of lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA). The preparation of immune probes in LFIA usually adopts the chemical coupling strategy with 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide for antibody coupling, which has the problems of low coupling efficiency, tedious coupling process, and poor repeatability. A biocompatible metal-phenolic network (MPN), which contains large amounts of phenols and galloyl groups, could easily, quickly, and stably couple with antibodies. Herein, we proposed a strategy based on MPN modification on ultrabright AIEFM surface as a novel label for the rapid detection of carbendazim. The limit of detection of AIEFM@MPN-LFIA was 0.019 ng/mL, which was 4.9 times lower than that of AIEFM-LFIA. In spiked samples, the average recoveries of AIEFM@MPN-LFIA ranged from 80% to 118% (coefficient of variation <13.45%). Therefore, AIEFM@MPN was a promising signal label that could improve the detection performance of LFIA.

Abstract
Metal-phenolic networks (MPNs) have emerged as a versatile and multifunctional platform applied in bioimaging, disease treatment, electrocatalysis, and water purification. The synthesis of MPNs with mesoporous frameworks and ultra-small diameters (<200 nm), crucial for post-modification, cargo loading, and mass transport, remains a formidable challenge. Inspired by mussel chemistry, mesoporous metal-phenolic nanospheres (MMPNs) are facilely prepared by direct deposition of the metal-polyphenol complex on the interface of oil nano-droplets composed of block copolymers/1,3,5-trimethylbenzene followed by a spontaneous template-removal process. Due to the penetrable and stable networks, the oil nano-droplets gradually leak from the networks driven by shear stress during the stirring process. As a result, MMPNs are obtained without additional template removal procedures such as solvent extraction or high-temperature calcination. The materials have a large pore size (∼12.1 nm), uniform spherical morphology with a small particle size (∼99 nm), and a large specific surface area (49.8 m2 g-1). Due to the abundant phenolic hydroxyl groups, the MMPNs show excellent antioxidative property. The MMPNs also have excellent photothermal property, whose photothermal conversion efficiency was 40.9 %. Moreover, the phenolic hydroxyl groups can reduce Ag+ in situ to prepare Ag nanoparticles loaded MMPNs composites, which have excellent inhibition performance of drug-resistant bacteria biofilm.

Ultrathin layer TAFC on BiVO 4 with ligand-to-metal charge transfer enhances built-in electric field for boosting photoelectrochemical water oxidation. J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 668:551-564.

Abstract
To reveal the mechanism of charge transfer between interfaces of BiVO4-based heterogeneous materials in photoelectrochemical water splitting system, the cocatalyst was grown in situ using tannic acid (TA) as a ligand and Fe and Co ions as metal centers (TAFC), and then uniformly and ultra-thinly coated on BiVO4 to form photoanodes. The results show that the BiVO4/TAFC achieves a superior photocurrent density (4.97 mA cm-2 at 1.23 VRHE). The charge separation and charge injection efficiencies were also significantly higher, 82.0 % and 78.9 %, respectively. From XPS, UPS, KPFM, and density functional theory calculations, Ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT) acts as an electron transport highway in TAFC ultrathin layer to promote the concentration of electrons towards metal center, leading to an increase in the work function, which enhances the built-in electric field and further improves the charge transport. This study demonstrated that the LMCT pathway on TA-metal complexes enhances the built-in electric field in BiVO4/TAFC to promote charge transport and thus enhance water oxidation, providing a new understanding of the performance improvement mechanism for the surface-modified composite photoanodes.

Abstract
The use of soy protein isolate (SPI) nanoparticles as a stabilizer in nano-emulsion systems has garnered significant interest. While metal-phenolic networks (MPNs) have been explored for their multifunctional surface modification capabilities, their integration with food protein-based delivery systems remains less explored. In this study, we attempt to develop a novel strategy to encapsulate cinnamaldehyde using MPNs (EGCG-Fe3+) with self-assembling soy protein nanoparticles (SE-Fe NPs) as a stabilizer for nano-emulsions. UV, Raman, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analyses demonstrated that SE-Fe NPs were generated through metal-phenolic coordination and covalent interactions. SE-Fe NPs had a narrower particle size distribution and enhanced radical scavenging (up to 3.35-fold), as well as thermal stability. Furthermore, the smaller droplet size, higher modulus, higher cinnamaldehyde encapsulation efficiency (from 63.5% to 84.2%), and improved bio-accessibility of SE-Fe NPs stabilized nano-emulsions delivery system demonstrated in this study shows promising future applications in the food industry.

Abstract
Adjuvants including aluminum adjuvant (Alum) and oil-water emulsion have been widely used in inactivated pseudorabies virus (PRV) vaccines to improve their performance, however, they are not sufficient to protect from PRV infection because of the weak immune response and poor Th1-type immune response. Divalent manganese ion (Mn2+) has been reported to increase the cellular immune response significantly. In this work, a xanthan gum and carbomer-dispersed Mn2+-loaded tannic acid-polyethylene glycol (TPMnXC) nanoparticle colloid is developed and used as an adjuvant to improve the performance of the inactivated PRV vaccine. The good in vitro and in vivo biocompatibility of the developed TPMnXC colloid has been confirmed by the cell viability assay, erythrocyte hemolysis, blood routine analysis, and histological analysis of mouse organs and injection site. The TPMnXC-adjuvanted inactivated PRV vaccine (TPMnXC@PRV) significantly promotes higher and more balanced immune responses indicating with an increased specific total IgG antibody and IgG2a/IgG1 ratio, efficient splenocytes proliferation, and elevated Th1- and Th2-type cytokine secretion than those of control groups. Wild PRV challenge experiment is performed using mice as a model animal, achieving a protection rate of up to 86.67 %, which is much higher than those observed from the commercial Alum. This work not only demonstrates the high potentiality of TPMnXC in practical applications but also provides a new way to develop the Mn2+-loaded nanoadjuvant for veterinary vaccines.

Abstract
Our technologically advanced civilization has made sensors an essential component. They have potential uses in the pharmaceutical sector, clinical analysis, food quality control, environmental monitoring, and other areas. One of the most active fields of analytical chemistry research is the fabrication of electrochemical sensors. An intriguing area of electroanalytical chemistry is the modification of electrodes using polymeric films. Due to their benefits, which include high adhesion to the electrode surface, chemical stability of the coating, superior selectivity, sensitivity, and homogeneity in electrochemical deposition, polymer-modified electrodes have attracted a great deal of interest in the electroanalytical sector. Conducting polymers are an important material for sensing devices because of their fascinating features, which include high mechanical flexibility, electrical conductivity, and the capacity to be electrochemically converted between electronically insulating and conducting states. Tannin or lignin nanomaterials can be an inter-linker leading to flexible and functional polymeric networks. There is a continuing demand for fast and simple analytical methods for the determination of many clinically important biomarkers, food additives, environmental pollutants etc. This review in a comprehensive way summarizes and discusses the various metal oxide and sulfide-incorporated tannin and lignin scaffolds using electrochemical sensing and biosensing.

Abstract
Phototherapy has garnered increasing attention as it allows for precise treatment of tumor sites with its accurate spatiotemporal control. In this study, we have successfully synthesized degradable bifunctional phototherapy agents (UCNPs@mSiO2@MPN-MC540/DOX) based on upconversion nanoparticle (UCNPs) and metal phenolic network (MPN), serving as a novel nanoplatform for multimodal tumor treatment in the near-infrared (NIR) biological window. To address the issue of low light penetration depth, the UCNPs we synthesized exhibited efficient light conversion ability under 808 nm laser irradiation to activate the photosensitizer Merocyanine 540 (MC540) for photodynamic therapy. Simultaneously, the 808 nm NIR light can also excite the MPN layer to achieve photothermal therapy for tumors. Additionally, the MPN layer possesses the capability of self-degradation under weakly acidic conditions. Within the tumor microenvironment, the MPN layer gradually degrades, facilitating the controlled release of the chemotherapy drug doxorubicin (DOX), thus achieving pH-responsive drug release and reducing the side effects of chemotherapy. This study provides an example of NIR-excited multimodal tumor treatment and pH-responsive drug release, offering a therapy model for precise tumor therapy.

Abstract
The practical utilization rates of conventional pesticide formulations by target organisms are very low, which results in the pollution of ecological environments and the formation of pesticide residues in agricultural products. Water-based nanopesticide formulations could become alternative and effective formulations to eventually resolve the main issues of conventional pesticide formulations. In this feature article, we describe the design concept of smart (stimuli-responsive) controlled-release nanopesticides, which are created toward hierarchical targets (pests, pathogens, and foliage) in response to multidimensional stimuli from physiological and environmental factors (such as sunlight) of target organisms and plants, for achieving enhanced insecticidal and fungicidal efficacies. The pore sizes and functionalities of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) can be fine-tuned through the choice of metal-containing units and organic ligands. Tailor-made MOF nanoparticles with large microporous or mesoporous sizes, as well as good biocompatibility and high thermal, mechanical, and chemical durabilities, are used to load pesticides within these pores followed by coating of plant polyphenols and natural polymers for stimuli-responsive controlled pesticide release. This feature article highlights our works on smart controlled-release MOF-based nanopesticides and also includes related works from other laboratories. The future challenges and promising prospects of smart controlled-release MOF-based nanopesticides are also discussed.

Abstract
Pickering emulsions stabilized by functional nanoparticles (NPs) have received considerable attention for improving the physical stability and biological function of NPs. Herein, hydrophobic polyphenols were chosen as phenolic ligands to form metal-phenolic network (MPN) coatings on NPs (e.g., silica, polystyrene) mediated by the sono-Fenton reaction. The MPN coatings modulated the surface wettability and charges of NPs and achieved emulsification behavior for preparing Pickering emulsions with pH responsiveness and oxidation resistance. A series of polyphenols, including resveratrol, rutin, naringin, and curcumin, were used to form MPN coatings on NPs, which served as stabilizers for the engineering of functionalized oil-in-water (O/W) Pickering emulsions. This work provides a new avenue for the use of hydrophobic polyphenols to modulate NP emulsifiers, which broadens the application of polyphenols for constructing Pickering emulsions with antioxidant properties.

Abstract
Rapid and sensitive detection of food-borne bacteria has remained challenging over the past few decades. We propose a surface-enhanced Raman scattering sensing strategy based on a novel bioinspired surface-enhanced Raman scattering substrate, which can directly detect dye molecular residues and food-borne pathogen microorganisms in the environment. The surface-enhanced Raman scattering platform consists of a natural diatomite microporous array decorated with a metal-phenolic network that enables the in situ reduction of gold nanoparticles. The as-prepared nanocomposites display excellent surface-enhanced Raman scattering activity with the lowest limit of detection and the maximum Raman enhancement factor of dye molecules up to 10-11 M and 1.18 × 107, respectively. For food-borne bacterial detection, a diatomite microporous array decorated with a metal polyphenol network and gold nanoparticle-based surface-enhanced Raman scattering analysis is capable of distinguishing the biochemical fingerprint information of Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, indicating the great potential for strain identification.

Abstract
Biomolecules play vital roles in many biological processes and diseases, making their identification crucial. Herein, we present a colorimetric sensing method for detecting biomolecules like cysteine (Cys), homocysteine (Hcy), and glutathione (GSH). This approach is based on a reaction system whereby colorless 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) undergoes catalytic oxidation to form blue-colored oxidized TMB (ox-TMB) in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), utilizing the peroxidase and catalase-mimicking activities of metal-phenolic coordination frameworks (MPNs) of Cu-TA, Co-TA, and Fe-TA nanospheres. The Fe-TA nanospheres demonstrated superior activity, more active sites and enhanced electron transport. Under optimal conditions, the Fe-TA nanospheres were used for the detection of biomolecules. When present, biomolecules inhibit the reaction between TMB and H2O2, causing various colorimetric responses at low detection limits of 0.382, 0.776 and 0.750 μM for Cys, Hcy and GSH. Furthermore, it was successfully applied to real water samples with good recovery results. The developed sensor not only offers a rapid, portable, and user-friendly technique for multi-target analysis of biomolecules at low concentrations but also expands the potential uses of MPNs for other targets in the environmental field.

Abstract
Preventing bacterial infections is a crucial aspect of wound healing. There is an urgent need for multifunctional biomaterials without antibiotics to promote wound healing. In this study, we fabricated a guar gum (GG)-based nanocomposite hydrogel, termed GBTF, which exhibited photothermal antibacterial therapy for infected wound healing. The GBTF hydrogel formed a cross-linked network through dynamic borate/diol interactions between GG and borax, thereby exhibiting simultaneously self-healing, adaptable, and injectable properties. Additionally, tannic acid (TA)/Fe3+ nanocomplexes (NCs) were incorporated into the hydrogel to confer photothermal antibacterial properties. Under the irradiation of an 808 nm near-infrared laser, the TA/Fe3+ NCs in the hydrogel could rapidly generate heat, leading to the disruption of bacterial cell membranes and subsequent bacterial eradication. Furthermore, the hydrogels exhibited good cytocompatibility and hemocompatibility, making them a precandidate for preclinical and clinical applications. Finally, they could significantly promote bacteria-infected wound healing by reducing bacterial viability, accelerating collagen deposition, and promoting epithelial remodeling. Therefore, the multifunctional GBTF hydrogel, which was composed entirely of natural substances including guar gum, borax, and polyphenol/ferric ion NCs, showed great potential for regenerating infected skin wounds in clinical applications.

Abstract
Melanin, especially integumentary melanin, interacts in numerous ways with electromagnetic radiation, leading to a set of critical functions, including radiation protection, UV-protection, pigmentary and structural color productions, and thermoregulation. By harnessing these functions, melanin and melanin-like materials can be widely applied to diverse applications with extraordinary performance. Here we provide a unified overview of the melanin family (all melanin and melanin-like materials) and their interactions with the complete electromagnetic radiation spectrum (X-ray, Gamma-ray, UV, visible, near-infrared), which until now has been absent from the literature and is needed to establish a solid fundamental base to facilitate their future investigation and development. We begin by discussing the chemistries and morphologies of both natural and artificial melanin, then the fundamentals of melanin-radiation interactions, and finally the exciting new developments in high-performance melanin-based functional materials that exploit these interactions. This Review provides both a comprehensive overview and a discussion of future perspectives for each subfield of melanin that will help direct the future development of melanin from both fundamental and applied perspectives.

Abstract
Nanomaterials present a vast potential as functional materials in environmental engineering. However, there are challenges with nanocomplex for recyclability, reliable/stable, and scale-up industrial integration. Here, a versatile, low-cost, stable and recycled easily metal-polyphenolic-based material carried by wood powder (bioCar-MPNs) adsorption platform was nano-engineered by a simple, fast self-assembly strategy, in which wood powder is an excellent substrate serving as a scaffold and stabilizer to prevent the nanocomplex from aggregating and is easier to recycle. Life cycle analysis highlights a green preparation process and environmental sustainability for bioCar-MPNs. The metal-polyphenolic nanocomplex coated on the wood surface in bioCar-MPNs presents a remarkable surface adsorption property (1829.4 mg/g) at a low cost (2.4 US dollars per 1000 g bioCar-MPNs) for organic dye. Quartz crystal microbalance analysis (QCM) demonstrates an existing strong affinity between polyphenols and organic dyes. Furthermore, Independent Gradient Model (IGM) and Hirshfeld surface analysis reveal the presence of the electrostatic interactions, π-π interactions, and hydrogen bonding. Meanwhile, adsorption efficiency of bioCar-MPNs maintains over 95% in the presence of co-existing ions (Na+, 0.5 M). Importantly, the reasonable utilization of biomass for water treatment can contribute to achieving the high-value and resource utilization of biomass materials.

Abstract
Polypropylene (PP) mesh is widely used in hernioplasty, but it is prone to contamination by pathogenic bacteria. Here, we present an infection microenvironment-responsive metal-phenolic network (MPN) coating, which is made up of Cu2+ and tannic acid (TA) (referred to as CT coating), and is fabricated on PP meshes by layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly. The CT coating provided a robust protection for the PP mesh from pathogenic bacterial infection in a pH-responsive manner due to the pH-responsive disassembly kinetics of MPN complexes. Moreover, the PP meshes with ten CT coating cycles (PP-CT(10)) exhibited excellent stability in a physiological environment, with the killing ratio against "superbug" methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) at pH 5.5 exceeding 99% even after 28 days of PBS (pH 7.4) immersion. In addition, the PP-CT(10) exhibited excellent in vivo anti-infective ability in a rodent subcutaneous implant MRSA infection model, and the results of histological and immunohistochemical analyses demonstrated that the reduced bacterial number alleviated the inflammatory response at implant sites. This study revealed that MPN coating is a promising strategy, which could provide a self-defensive ability for various implants to combat post-surgical infections in a pH-responsive manner.

Abstract
Zinc-based aqueous batteries (ZABs) are attracting extensive attention due to the low cost, high capacity, and environmental benignity of the zinc anode. However, their application is still hindered by the undesired zinc dendrites. Despite Zn-surface modification being promising in relieving dendrites, a thick separator (i.e. glass fiber, 250-700 μm) is still required to resist the dendrite puncture, which limits volumetric energy density of battery. Here, we pivot from the traditional interphase plus extra separator categories, proposing an all-in-one ligand buffer layer (ca. 20 μm) to effectively modulate the Zn2+ transfer and deposition behaviors proved by in situ electrochemical digital holography. Experimental characterizations and density functional theory simulations further reveal that the catechol groups in the buffer layer can accelerate the Zn2+ reduction reaction (ZRR) through the electron-donating p-π conjugation effect, decreasing the negative charge in the coordination environment. Without extra separators, the elaborated system endows low polarization below 28.2 mV, long lifespan of 4950 h at 5 mA cm-2 in symmetric batteries, and an unprecedented volumetric energy density of 99.2 Wh L-1 based on the whole pouch cells. The concomitantly "separator-free" and "dendrite-free" conjugation effect with an accelerated ZRR process could foster the progression of metallic anodes and benefit energetic aqueous batteries.

Abstract
Achieving underwater adhesion possesses a significant challenge, primarily due to the presence of interfacial water, which restricts the potential applications of adhesives. In this study, we present a straightforward and environmentally friendly one-pot approach for synthesizing a solvent-free supramolecular TPFe bioadhesive composed of thioctic acid, proanthocyanidins, and FeCl3. The bioadhesive exhibits excellent biocompatibility and photothermal antibacterial properties and demonstrates effective adhesion on various substrates in both wet and dry environments. Importantly, the adhesive strength of this bioadhesive on steel exceeds 1.2 MPa and that on porcine skin exceeds 100 kPa, which is greater than the adhesive strength of most reported bioadhesives. In addition, the bioadhesive exhibits the ability to effectively halt bleeding, close wounds promptly, and promote wound healing in the rat skin wound model. Therefore, the TPFe bioadhesive has potential as a medical bioadhesive for halting bleeding quickly and promoting wound healing in the biomedical field. This study provides a new idea for the development of bioadhesives with firm wet adhesion.

Polymeric nanoparticles sit at the forefront of numerous promising drug delivery designs, due to their unmatched control over physiochemical properties such as size, shape, architecture, charge, and surface functionality. Furthermore, polymeric nanoparticles have the ability to navigate various biological barriers to precisely target specific sites within the body, encapsulate a diverse range of therapeutic cargo and efficiently release this cargo in response to internal and external stimuli. However, despite these remarkable advantages, the presence of polymeric nanoparticles in wider clinical application is minimal. This review will provide a comprehensive understanding of polymeric nanoparticles as drug delivery vehicles. The biological barriers affecting drug delivery will be outlined first, followed by a comprehensive description of the various nanoparticle designs and preparation methods, beginning with the polymers on which they are based. The review will meticulously explore the current performance of polymeric nanoparticles against a myriad of diseases including cancer, viral and bacterial infections, before finally evaluating the advantages and crucial challenges that will determine their wider clinical potential in the decades to come.

Gad SF, Vasiukhina A, Keller JS, Solorio L, Yeo Y. Multidimensional opioid abuse deterrence using a nanoparticle-polymer hybrid formulation. J Control Release 2024; 370:490-500. [PMID: 38685384 DOI: 10.1016/j.jconrel.2024.04.046] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/27/2024] [Revised: 04/16/2024] [Accepted: 04/25/2024] [Indexed: 05/02/2024]
Abstract
Misuse of prescription opioid drugs is the leading cause of the opioid crisis and overdose-related death. Abuse deterrent formulations (ADFs) have been developed to discourage attempts to tamper with the formulation and alter the ingestion methods. However, abusers develop complex extraction strategies to circumvent the ADF technologies. For comprehensive deterrence of drug abuse, we develop tannic acid nanoparticles (NPs) that protect encapsulated opioids from solvent extraction and thermal challenge (crisping), complementing the existing formulation strategy to deter injection abuse. Here, we develop a hybrid ADF tablet (NP-Tab), consisting of iron-crosslinked tannic acid NPs encapsulating thebaine (model opioid compound), xanthan gum, and chitosan (gel-forming polymers), and evaluate its performance in common abuse conditions. NP-Tab tampered by crushing and suspended in aqueous solvents forms an instantaneous gel, which is difficult to pull or push through a 21-gauge needle. NPs insulate the drug from organic solvents, deterring solvent extraction. NPs also promote thermal destruction of the drug to make crisping less rewarding. However, NP-Tab releases thebaine in the simulated gastric fluid without delay, suggesting that its analgesic effect may be unaffected if consumed orally as prescribed. These results demonstrate that NP-Tab can provide comprehensive drug abuse deterrence, resisting aqueous/organic solvent extraction, injection, and crisping, while retaining its therapeutic effect upon regular usage.

Abstract
Films formed by metals and phenols through a coordinative interaction have been extensively studied in previous years. We report the successful formation of MPN films from the phenolic compounds caffeic acid and lignosulfonate using Fe3+ ions for complexation. The likewise examined p-coumaryl alcohol showed some MPN film formation tendency, while for coniferyl alcohol and sinapyl alcohol, no successful film buildup could be observed. These newly formed films were compared to tannic acid-Fe3+ films as a reference. Film growth and degradation were tracked by using UV-vis absorption spectroscopy. The films were degradable under different conditions such as alkaline environments or in the presence of a strong chelator. Small hollow capsules with a diameter of 3 μm and thicknesses in the nanometer range were produced. Additionally, the prepared films showed varying colors and levels of wettability. By utilizing the films' coating properties, we successfully dyed human hair in various colors.

Abstract
In recent years, the development of biomaterials from green organic sources with nontoxicity and hyposensitivity has been explored for a wide array of biotherapeutic applications. Polyphenolic compounds have unique structural features, and self-assembly by oxidative coupling allows molecular species to rearrange into complex biomaterial that can be used for multiple applications. Self-assembled polyphenolic structures, such as hollow spheres, can be designed to respond to various chemical and physical stimuli that can release therapeutic drugs smartly. The self-assembled metallic-phenol network (MPN) has been used for modulating interfacial properties and designing biomaterials, and there are several advantages and challenges associated with such biomaterials. This review comprehensively summarizes current challenges and prospects of self-assembled polyphenolic hollow spheres and MPN coatings and self-assembly for biomedical applications.

Polyphenol-mediated defect patching of graphene oxide membranes for sulfonamide contaminants removal and fouling control. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 469:133890. [PMID: 38422736 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2024.133890] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2023] [Revised: 02/22/2024] [Accepted: 02/23/2024] [Indexed: 03/02/2024]
Abstract
Graphene oxide (GO)-based laminar membranes are promising candidates for next-generation nanofiltration membranes because of their theoretically frictionless nanochannels. However, nonuniform stacking during the filtration process and the inherent swelling of GO nanosheets generate horizontal and vertical defects, leading to a low selectivity and susceptibility to pore blockage. Herein, both types of defects are simultaneously patching by utilizing tannic acid and FeⅢ. Tannic acid first partially reduced the upper GO framework, and then coordinated with FeⅢ to form a metal-polyphenol network covering horizontal defects. Due to the enhanced steric hindrance, the resulting membrane exhibited a two-fold increase in sulfonamide contaminants exclusion compared to the pristine GO membrane. A non-significant reduction in permeance was observed. In terms of fouling control, shielding defects significantly alleviated the irreversible pore blockage of the membrane. Additionally, the hydrophilic metal-polyphenol network weakened the adhesion force between the membrane and foulants, thereby improving the reversibility of fouling in the cleaning stage. This work opens up a new way to develop GO-based membranes with enhanced separation performance and antifouling ability.

Abstract
Surface modification is an important approach to improve osseointegration of the endosseous implants, however it is still desirable to develop a facile yet efficient coating strategy. Herein, a metal-phenolic network (MPN) is proposed as a multifunctional nanocoating on titanium (Ti) implants for enhanced osseointegration through early immunomodulation. With tannic acid (TA) and Sr2+ self-assembled on Ti substrates, the MPN coatings provided a bioactive interface, which can facilitate the initial adhesion and recruitment of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and polarize macrophage toward M2 phenotype. Furthermore, the TA-Sr coatings accelerated the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs. In vivo evaluations further confirmed the enhanced osseointegration of TA-Sr modified implants via generating a favorable osteoimmune microenvironment. In general, these results suggest that TA-Sr MPN nanocoating is a promising strategy for achieving better and faster osseointegration of bone implants, which can be easily utilized in future clinical applications.

Abstract
Nature has exhibited a high degree of control over the structures and functions. Supramolecules have been utilized to mimic the subtle assembly in nature. However, sophisticated synthesis of molecular skeletons or programmable design of the driving forces raises great challenges in fabricating high-level superstructures in a controlled manner. Natural polyphenols show great promises as building blocks for a diverse of assemblies with controlled structures and functionalities. The intrinsically embedded phenolic groups (i. e., catechol and galloyl groups) are readily forming multiple molecular interactions, including coordination, hydrogen bonding, and π-π interactions with various materials of inorganic particles, organic compounds, synthetic polymers, and biomacromolecules, providing the self-assembled structures or nanocoating on surfaces. Subsequent assembly occurred by further bonding of polyphenols to construct supraparticles. To gain control over the self-assembly, the key lies in the interplay among the molecular interactions with one or two being dominant. In this Perspective, we introduce the representative polyphenol-based assemblies and their derived supraparticles to exhibit the effective harness of the controlled self-assembly by polyphenols.

Abstract
Probiotics-based oral therapy has become a promising way to prevent and treat various diseases, while the application of probiotics is primarily restricted by loss of viability due to adverse conditions in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract during oral delivery. Layer-by-layer (LbL) single-cell encapsulation approaches are widely employed to improve the bioavailability of probiotics. However, they are generally time- and labor-intensive owing to multistep operation. Herein, a simple yet efficient LbL technique is developed to coat a model probiotic named Escherichia coli Nissle 1917 (EcN) through polyphenol-Ca2+ network directed allyl-modified gelatin (GelAGE) adsorption followed by cross-linking of GelAGE via photoinitiated thiol-ene click reaction to protect EcN from harsh microenvironments of GI tract. LbL single-cell encapsulation can be performed within 1 h through simple operation. It is revealed that coated EcN exhibits significantly improved viability against acidic gastric fluid and bile salts, and enhanced colonization in the intestinal tract without loss of proliferation capabilities. Furthermore, oral therapy of coated EcN remarkably relieves the pathological symptoms associated with colitis in mice including down-regulating inflammation, repairing epithelial barriers, scavenging reactive oxygen species (ROS), and restoring the homeostasis of gut microbiota. This simplified LbL coating strategy has great potential for various probiotics-mediated biomedical and nutraceutical applications.

Abstract
Cell implantation offers an appealing avenue for heart repair after myocardial infarction (MI). Nevertheless, the implanted cells are subjected to the aberrant myocardial niche, which inhibits cell survival and maturation, posing significant challenges to the ultimate therapeutic outcome. The functional cardiac patches (CPs) have been proved to construct an elastic conductive, antioxidative, and angiogenic microenvironment for rectifying the aberrant microenvironment of the infarcted myocardium. More importantly, inducing implanted cardiomyocytes (CMs) adapted to the anisotropic arrangement of myocardial tissue by bioengineered structural cues within CPs are more conducive to MI repair. Herein, a functional Cig/(TA-Cu) CP served as biomimetic cardiac niche was fabricated based on structural anisotropic cigarette filter by modifying with tannic acid (TA)-chelated Cu2+ (TA-Cu complex) via a green method. This CP possessed microstructural anisotropy, electrical conductivity and mechanical properties similar to natural myocardium, which could promote elongation, orientation, maturation, and functionalization of CMs. Besides, the Cig/(TA-Cu) CP could efficiently scavenge reactive oxygen species, reduce CM apoptosis, ultimately facilitating myocardial electrical integration, promoting vascular regeneration and improving cardiac function. Together, our study introduces a functional CP that integrates multimodal cues to create a biomimetic cardiac niche and provides an effective strategy for cardiac repair.

Abstract
Manipulation of the gut microbiota using oral microecological preparations has shown great promise in treating various inflammatory disorders. However, delivering these preparations while maintaining their disease-site specificity, stability, and therapeutic efficacy is highly challenging due to the dynamic changes associated with pathological microenvironments in the gastrointestinal tract. Herein, a superior armored probiotic with an inflammation-targeting capacity is developed to enhance the efficacy and timely action of bacterial therapy against inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The coating strategy exhibits suitability for diverse probiotic strains and has negligible influence on bacterial viability. This study demonstrates that these armored probiotics have ultraresistance to extreme intraluminal conditions and stable mucoadhesive capacity. Notably, the HA-functionalized nanoarmor equips the probiotics with inflamed-site targetability through multiple interactions, thus enhancing their efficacy in IBD therapy. Moreover, timely "awakening" of ingested probiotics through the responsive transferrin-directed degradation of the nanoarmor at the site of inflammation is highly beneficial for bacterial therapy, which requires the bacterial cells to be fully functional. Given its easy preparation and favorable biocompatibility, the developed single-cell coating approach provides an effective strategy for the advanced delivery of probiotics for biomedical applications at the cellular level.

Abstract
Multifunctional drug delivery systems (DDS) are in high demand for effectively targeting specific cells, necessitating excellent biocompatibility, precise release mechanisms, and sustained release capabilities. The hollow multishelled structure (HoMS) presents a promising solution, integrating structural and compositional design for efficient DDS development amidst complex cellular environments. Herein, starting from a Fe-based metal-organic framework (MOF), amorphous coordination polymers (CP) composited HoMS with controlled shell numbers are fabricated by balancing the rate of MOF decomposition and shell formation. Fe-CP HoMS loaded with DOX is utilized for synergistic chemotherapy and chemodynamic therapy, offering excellent responsive drug release capability (excellent pH-triggered drug release 82% within 72 h at pH 5.0 solution with doxorubicin (DOX) loading capacity of 284 mg g-1). In addition to its potent chemotherapy attributes, Fe-CP-HoMS possesses chemodynamic therapy potential by continuously catalyzing H2O2 to generate ·OH species within cancer cells, thus effectively inhibiting cancer cell proliferation. DOX@3S-Fe-CP-HoMS, at a concentration of 12.5 µg mL-1, demonstrates significant inhibitory effects on cancer cells while maintaining minimal cytotoxicity toward normal cells. It is envisioned that CP-HoMS could serve as an effective and biocompatible platform for the advancement of intelligent drug delivery systems in the realm of cancer therapy.

Abstract
The role of tannins (TA), a well-known abundant and ecologically friendly chelating ligand, in metal capture has long been studied. Different kinds of TA-containing adsorbents are synthesized for uranium capture, while most adsorbents suffer from unfavorable adsorption kinetics. Herein, the design and preparation of a TA-containing 2D crosslinked network adsorbent (TANP) is reported. The ≈1.8-nanometer-thick TANP films curl up into micrometer-scale pores, which contribute to fast mass transfer and full exposure of active sites. The coordination environment of uranyl (UO2 2+) ions is explored by integrated analysis of U L3-edge XANES and EXAFS. Density functional theory calculations indicate the energetically favorable UO2 2+ binding. Consequently, TANP with excellent adsorption kinetics presents a high uranium capture capacity (14.62 mg-U g-Ads-1) and a high adsorption rate (0.97 mg g-1 day-1) together with excellent selectivity and biofouling resistance. Life cycle assessment and cost analysis demonstrate that TANP has tremendous potential for application in industrial-scale uranium extraction from seawater.

Abstract
This study proposes a robust microshell encapsulation system in which a metal-organic membrane (MOM), consisting of phytic acids (PAs) and metal ions, intrinsically prevents the molecular crystal growth of organic crystalline materials (OCMs). To develop this system, OCM-containing oil-in-water (O/W) Pickering emulsions were enveloped with the MOM, in which anionic pulp cellulose nanofiber (PCNF) primers electrostatically captured zinc ions at the O/W interface and chelated with PA, thus producing the MOM with a controlled shell thickness at the micron scale. We ascertained that the MOM formation fills and covers ∼75% of the surface pore size of PCNF films, which enhances the interfacial modulus by 2 orders of magnitude compared to that when treated with bare PCNFs. Through a feasibility test using a series of common OCMs, including ethylhexyl triazone, avobenzone, and ceramide, we demonstrated the excellent ability of our MOM microshell system to stably encapsulate OCMs while retaining their original molecular structures over time. These findings indicate that our MOM-reinforced microshell technology can be applied as a platform to substantially confine the crystal growth of various types of OCMs.

Abstract
The improvement of the capability of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm) hydrogel coating in cell adhesion and detachment is critical to efficiently prepare cell sheets applied in cellular therapies and tissue engineering. To enhance cell response on the surface, the amine group-modified PNIPAAm (PNIPAAm-APTES) nanohydrogels were synthesized and deposited spontaneously on tannic acid (TA)-modified polyethylene (PE) plates. Subsequently, TA was introduced onto PNIPAAm-APTES nanohydrogels to fabricate coatings composed of TA-modified PNIPAAm-APTES (PNIPAAm-APTES-TA). Characterization techniques, including TEM, SEM, XPS, and UV-Vis spectroscopy, confirmed the effective deposition of hydrogels of PNIPAAm as well as the morphologies, content of chemical bonding-TA, and stability of various coatings. Importantly, the porous hydrogel coatings exhibited superhydrophilicity at 20 °C and thermo-responsive behavior. The fluorescence measurement demonstrated that the coating's stability effectively regulated protein behavior, influencing cell response. Notably, cell response tests revealed that even without precise control over the chain length/thickness of PNIPAAm during synthesis, the coatings enhanced cell adhesion and detachment, facilitating efficient cell culture. This work represented a novel and facile approach to preparing bioactive PNIPAAm for cell culture.

Abstract
Albeit microemulsion systems have emerged as efficient platforms for fabricating tunable nano/microstructures, lack of understanding on the emulsion-interfacial assembly hindered the control of fabrication. Herein, a nucleation-inhibited microemulsion interfacial assembly method is proposed, which deviates from conventional interfacial nucleation approaches, for the synthesis of polydopamine microvesicles (PDA MVs). These PDA MVs exhibit an approximate diameter of 1 µm, showcasing a pliable structure reminiscent of cellular morphology. Through modifications of antibodies on the surface of PDA MVs, their capacity as artificial antigen presentation cells is evaluated. In comparison to solid nanoparticles, PDA MVs with cell-like structures show enhanced T-cell activation, resulting in a 1.5-fold increase in CD25 expression after 1 day and a threefold surge in PD-1 positivity after 7 days. In summary, the research elucidates the influence of nucleation and interfacial assembly in microemulsion polymerization systems, providing a direct synthesis method for MVs and substantiating their effectiveness as artificial antigen-presenting cells.

Abstract
Thermodynamic therapy (TDT) based on oxygen-independent free radicals exhibits promising potential for the treatment of hypoxic tumors. However, its therapeutic efficacy is seriously limited by the premature release of the drug and the free radical scavenging effect of glutathione (GSH) in tumors. Herein, we report a GSH depletion and biosynthesis inhibition strategy using EGCG/Fe-camouflaged gold nanorod core/ZIF-8 shell nanoparticles embedded with azo initiator 2,2'-azobis[2-(2-imidazolin-2-yl) propane] dihydrochloride (AIPH) and L-buthionine-sulfoximine (BSO) for tumor-targeting photothermal (PTT) and thermodynamic therapy (TDT). This nanoplatform (GNR@ZIF-8-AIPH/BSO@EGCG/Fe, GZABEF) endows a pH-responsive release performance. With the 67 kDa lamin receptor (67LR)-targeting ability of EGCG, GZABEF could selectively release oxygen-independent free radicals in tumor cells under 1064 nm laser irradiation. More importantly, Fe3+-mediated GSH depletion and BSO-mediated GSH biosynthesis inhibition significantly boosted the accumulation of alkyl radicals. In 4T1 cells, GZABEF induced cancer cell death via intracellular GSH depletion and GSH peroxidase 4 (GPX4) inactivation. In a subcutaneous xenograft model of 4T1, GZABEF demonstrated remarkable tumor growth inhibition (78.2%). In addition, excellent biosafety and biocompatibility of GZABEF were observed both in vitro and in vivo. This study provides inspiration for amplified TDT/PTT-mediated antitumor efficacy.

Abstract
The limited osteointegration often leads to the failure of implant, which can be improved by fixing bioactive molecules onto the surface, such as arginyl-glycyl-aspartic acid (RGD): a cell adhesion motif. Metal-Phenolic Networks (MPNs) have garnered increasing attention from different disciplines in recent years due to their simple and rapid process for depositing on various substrates or particles with different shapes. However, the lack of cellular binding sites on MPNs greatly blocks its application in tissue engineering. In this study, we present a facile and efficient approach for producing PC/Fe@c(RGDfc) composite coatings through the conjugation of c(RGDfc) peptides onto the surface of PC/Fe-MPNs utilizing thiol-click reaction. By combined various techniques (ellipsometry, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry, water contact angle, scanning electronic microscopy, atomic force microscopy) the physicochemical properties (composition, coating mechanism and process, modulus and hydrophilicity) of PC/Fe@c(RGDfc) surface were characterized in detail. In addition, the PC/Fe@c(RGDfc) coating exhibits the remarkable ability to positively modulate cellular attachment, proliferation, migration and promoted bone-implant integration in vivo, maintaining the inherent features of MPNs: anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative properties, as well as multiple substrate deposition. This work contributes to engineering MPNs-based coatings with bioactive molecules by a facile and efficient thiol-click reaction, as an innovative perspective for future development of surface modification of implant materials.

Abstract
Bamboo fibers (BF), as an important sustainable natural material, are becoming a hot alternative to synthetic fibers for the reinforcement of polypropylene (PP)-based composites. However, the weak interfacial compatibility between BF and PP as matrix and their inherent flammability limit the practical application of BF/PP composites (BPC). Here, a fire-safe BPC was fabricated by constructing flame-retardant interfacial layers containing tannic acid (TA)-Fe3+ complex and halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) on the fiber matrix followed by a hot-pressing process. The results showed that the interfacial chelating of TA with Fe3+ improved the dispersion of HNTs on the fibers and the interfacial interactions within the fiber matrix, resulting in the as-fabricated composite with significantly improved mechanical properties and water resistance. In addition, the flame-retardant composite exhibited higher thermal stability and enhanced residual char content. Moreover, the composite possessed significant flame-retardant performances with a reduction of 23.75 % in the total heat release and 32.44 % in the total smoke production, respectively, owing to the flame retarding in gaseous phase and condensed phase of TA-Fe3+@HNTs layers. This work offers a green and eco-friendly strategy to address the inherent problems of BPC material in terms of fire safety and interfacial compatibility, thus broadening their applications in the automotive interior and construction industries.

Abstract
Caries are one of the most common oral diseases caused by pathogenic bacterial infections, which are widespread and persistently harmful to human health. Using nanoparticles to invade biofilms and produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) in situ is a promising strategy for killing bacteria and disrupting the structure of biofilms. In this work, a biofilm-targeting Fenton nanoreactor is reported that can generate ROS responsive to the cariogenic microenvironment. The nanoreactor is constructed by metal-phenolic encapsulation of calcium peroxide (CaO2) followed by modification with a biofilm targeting ligand dextran. Within the cariogenic biofilm, the Fenton nanoreactor is activated by an acidic microenvironment to be decomposed into H2O2 and iron ions, triggering a Fenton-like reaction to generate ROS that can eliminate the biofilm by breaking down extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) and killing cariogenic bacteria. Meanwhile, the depletion of excess protons in biofilm leads to a reversal of the cariogenic microenvironment. The Fenton nanoreactor can effectively inhibit the biofilm formation of Streptococcus mutans on ex vivo human teeth and is effective in preventing caries meanwhile maintaining the oral microbial diversity in rat caries infection model. This work provides a novel and efficient modality for acid microenvironment-driven ROS therapy.

Abstract
Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is a combination of raw herbs and herbal extracts with a plethora of documented beneficial bioactivities, which has unique advantages in anti-tumor therapy, and many of its major bioactive molecules have been identified in recent years due to advances in chemical separation and structural analysis. However, the major chemical classes of plant-derived bioactive compounds frequently possess chemical properties, including poor water solubility, stability, and bioavailability, that limit their therapeutic application. Alternatively, natural small molecules (NSMs) containing these components possess modifiable groups, multiple action sites, hydrophobic side chains, and a rigid skeleton with self-assembly properties that can be exploited to construct self-assembled nanoparticles with therapeutic effects superior to their individual constituents. For instance, the construction of a self-assembled nanodrug delivery system can effectively overcome the strong hydrophobicity and poor in vivo stability of NSMs, thereby greatly improving their bioavailability and enhancing their anti-tumor efficacy. This review summarizes the self-assembly methods, mechanisms, and applications of a variety of NSMs, including terpenoids, flavonoids, alkaloids, polyphenols, and saponins, providing a theoretical basis for the subsequent research on NSMs and the development of SANDDS.

Abstract
Periodontitis, a complex inflammatory disease initiated by bacterial infections, presents a significant challenge in public health. The increased levels of reactive oxygen species and the subsequent exaggerated immune response associated with periodontitis often lead to alveolar bone resorption and tooth loss. Herein, we develop multifunctional metal-phenolic composites (i.e., Au@MPN-BMP2) to address the complex nature of periodontitis, where gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are coated by metal-phenolic networks (MPNs) and bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2). In this design, MPNs exhibit remarkable antibacterial and antioxidant properties, and AuNPs and BMP2 promote osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells under inflammatory conditions. In a rat model of periodontitis, treatment with Au@MPN-BMP2 leads to notable therapeutic outcomes, including mitigated oxidative stress, reduced progression of inflammation, and the significant prevention of inflammatory bone loss. These results highlight the multifunctionality of Au@MPN-BMP2 nanoparticles as a promising therapeutic approach for periodontitis, addressing both microbial causative factors and an overactivated immune response. We envision that the rational design of metal-phenolic composites will provide versatile nanoplatforms for tissue regeneration and potential clinical applications.

Abstract
Small molecules, including therapeutic drugs and tracer molecules, play a vital role in biological processing, disease treatment and diagnosis, and have inspired various nanobiotechnology approaches to realize their biological function, particularly in drug delivery. Desirable features of a delivery system for functional small molecules (FSMs) include high biocompatibility, high loading capacity, and simple manufacturing processes, without the need for chemical modification of the FSM itself. Herein, we report a simple and versatile approach, based on metal-phenolic-mediated assembly, for assembling FSMs into nanoparticles (i.e., FSM-MPN NPs) under aqueous and ambient conditions. We demonstrate loading of anticancer drugs, latency reversal agents, and fluorophores at up to ~80 % that is mostly facilitated by π and hydrophobic interactions between the FSM and nanoparticle components. Secondary nanoparticle engineering involving coating with a polyphenol-antibody thin film or sequential co-loading of multiple FSMs enables cancer cell targeting and combination delivery, respectively. Incorporating fluorophores into FSM-MPN NPs enables the visualization of biodistribution at different time points, revealing that most of these NPs are retained in the kidney and heart 24 h post intravenous administration. This work provides a viable pathway for the rational design of small molecule nanoparticle delivery platforms for diverse biological applications.

Abstract
Due to the presence of natural neoantigens, autologous tumor cells hold great promise as personalized therapeutic vaccines. Yet autologous tumor cell vaccines require multi-step production that frequently leads to the loss of immunoreactive antigens, causing insufficient immune activation and significantly hampering their clinical applications. Herein, we introduce a novel whole-cell cancer vaccine by cloaking cancer cells with lipopolysaccharide-decorated manganese(II)-phenolic networks (MnTA nanocloaks) to evoke tumor-specific immune response for highly efficacious synergistic cancer immunotherapy. The natural polyphenols coordinate with Mn2+ and immediately adhere to the surface of individual cancer cells, thereby forming a nanocloak and encapsulating tumor neoantigens. Subsequent decoration with lipopolysaccharide induces internalization by dendritic cells, where Mn2+ ions are released in the cytosol, further facilitating the activation of the stimulator of the interferon genes (STING) pathway. Highly effective tumor suppression was observed by combining the nanocloaked cancer cell treatment with anti-programmed cell death ligand 1 (anti-PD-L1) antibodies-mediated immune checkpoint blockade therapy. Our work demonstrates a universal yet simple strategy to engineer a cell-based nanobiohybrid system for enhanced cancer immunotherapy.

Abstract
The interplay between polyphenols, amines, and metals has broad implications for surface chemistry, biomaterials, energy storage, and environmental science. Traditionally, polyphenol-amine combinations have been recognized for their ability to form adhesive, material-independent thin layers that offer a diverse range of surface functionalities. Herein, we demonstrate that a coating of tannic acid (TA) and polyethyleneimine (PEI) provides an efficient platform for capturing and monitoring metal ions in water. A unique feature of our PEI/TA-coated microbeads is the 'Detection-Capture' (Detec-Ture) mechanism. The galloyl groups in TA coordinate with Fe(III) ions (capture), initiating their oxidation to gallol-quinone. These oxidized groups subsequently react with PEI amines, leading to the formation of an Fe(II/III)-gallol-PEI network that produces a vivid purple color, thereby enabling visual detection. This mechanism couples metal capture directly with detection, distinguishing our approach from existing studies, which have either solely focused on metal removal or metal detection. The metal capturing capacity of our materials stands at 0.55 mg g-1, comparable to that of established materials like alginate and wollastonite. The detection sensitivity reaches down to 0.5 ppm. Our findings introduce a novel approach to the utility of metal-polyphenol-amine networks, presenting a new class of materials suited for simultaneous metal ion detection and capture in environmental applications.

Abstract
Water-energy sustainability will depend upon the rapid development of advanced pressure-driven separation membranes. Although energy-efficient, water-treatment membranes are constrained by ubiquitous fouling, which may be alleviated by engineering self-cleaning membrane interfaces. In this study, a metal-polyphenol network was designed to direct the armorization of catalytic nanofilms (ca. 18 nm) on inert polymeric membranes. The chelation-directed mineralized coating exhibits high polarity, superhydrophilicity, and ultralow adhesion to crude oil, enabling cyclable crude oil-in-water emulsion separation. The in-place flux recovery rate exceeded 99.9%, alleviating the need for traditional ex situ cleaning. The chelation-directed nanoarmored membrane exhibited 48-fold and 6.8-fold figures of merit for in-place self-cleaning regeneration compared to the control membrane and simple hydraulic cleaning, respectively. Precursor interaction mechanisms were identified by density functional theory calculations. Chelation-directed armorization offers promise for sustainable applications in catalysis, biomedicine, environmental remediation, and beyond.

Abstract
Sliver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have attracted tremendous interest as an alternative to commercially available antibiotics due to their low microbial resistance and broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity. However, AgNPs are highly reactive and unstable and are susceptible to fast oxidation. Synthesizing stable and efficient AgNPs using green chemistry principles remains a major challenge. To address this issue, we establish a facile route to form AgNP-doped zein nanoparticle core-satellite superstructures with ultralow minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC). In brief, polyphenol surface-functionalization of zein nanoparticles was performed, and the epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) layer on zein nanoparticles served as a reducing-cum-stabilizing agent. We used EGCG-decorated zein nanoparticles (ZE) as a template to direct the nucleation and growth of AgNPs to develop metallized hybrid nanoparticles (ZE-Ag). The highly monodispersed core-satellite nanoparticles (∼150 nm) decorated with ∼4.9 nm AgNPs were synthesized successfully. The spatial restriction of EGCG by zein nanoparticles confined the nucleation and growth of AgNPs only on the surface of the particles, which prevented the formation of entangled clusters of polyphenols and AgNPs and concomitantly inhibited the coalescence and oxidation of AgNPs. Thus, this strategy improved the effective specific surface area of AgNPs, and as a result, ZE-Ag efficiently killed the indicator bacteria, Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA) after 20 min of incubation, with MBCs of 2 and 4 μg/mL, respectively. This situation indicated that as-prepared core-satellite nanoparticles possessed potent short-term sterilization capability. Moreover, the simulated wound infection model also confirmed the promising application of ZE-Ag as an efficient antimicrobial composite. This work provides new insights into the synthesis and emerging application of AgNPs in food preservation, packaging, biomedicine, and catalysis.

Abstract
Management of diabetic wounds presents a global health challenge due to elevated levels of ROS in the wound microenvironment, persistent dysregulation of inflammation modulation, and limitations in commercially available dressings. Addressing this issue, we have developed a pH-responsive and glucose-sensitive multifunctional hydrogel dressing that dynamically responds to the wound microenvironment and enables on-demand drug release. The dressing incorporates a matrix material based on aminophenylboronic acid-functionalized alginate and a polyhydroxy polymer, alongside an enhancer phase consisting of self-assembled metal-phenol coordination nanospheres formed by tannic acid and iron ions. Using the dynamic borate ester bonds and catechol-metal ion coordination bonds, the dressing exhibits remarkable shape adaptability, self-healing capability, tissue adhesiveness, antioxidant activity, and photothermal responsiveness, without additional curatives or crosslinking agents. As a wound dressing, it elicits macrophage polarization towards an anti-inflammatory phenotype while maintaining long-lasting antimicrobial effects. In a diabetic mouse model of full-thickness wound infections, it effectively mitigated inflammation and vascular damage, significantly expediting the wound healing process with a commendable 97.7% wound closure rate. This work provides a new direction for developing multifunctional smart hydrogel dressings that can accelerate diabetic wound healing for human health.

Abstract
Chronic wounds frequently arise as a complication in diabetic patients, and their management remains a significant clinical hurdle due to their nonhealing nature featured by heightened oxidative stress and impaired healing cells at the wound site. Herein, we present a 2D copper antioxidant nanozyme induced by phenolic ligand-metal charge transfer (LMCT) to eliminate reactive oxygen species (ROS) and facilitate the healing of chronic diabetic wounds. We found that polyphenol ligands coordinated on the Cu3(PO4)2 nanosheets led to a strong charge transfer at the interface and regulated the valence states of Cu. The obtained Cu nanozyme exhibited efficient scavenging ability toward different oxidative species and protected human cells from oxidative damage. The nanozyme enhanced the healing of diabetic wounds by promoting re-epithelialization, collagen deposition, angiogenesis, and immunoregulation. This work demonstrates the LMCT-induced ROS scavenging ability on a nanointerface, providing an alternative strategy of constructing metal-based nanozymes for the treatment of diabetic wounds as well as other diseases.

Abstract
Herein, a novel humic acid-Fex+ complex-coated ZVI (HA-Fex+@ZVI) was synthesized and used to activate peroxydisulfate (PDS) for phenol degradation. The HA-Fex+ shell selectively reacted with PDS rather than O2, leading to the formation of modified ZVI with excellent surface stability in storage and ultraefficient PDS activation in advanced oxidation processes (AOPs). As a result, the phenol degradation and PDS activation efficiencies of HA-Fex+@ZVI/PDS were ∼14.4 and ∼1.8 times higher than those of ZVI/PDS, respectively. Mechanistic explorations revealed that the replacement of the HA-Fex+ shell relative to the original passivation layer of ZVI greatly changed the SO4•- generation pathway from a heterogeneous process to a homogeneous process, resulting from the slow exposure of Fe0 (generating dissolved Fe2+) and the depolymerized HA (enhancing the Fe3+/Fe2+ cycle). Based on experimental analysis and density functional theory (DFT) calculations, the Fe3+ in HA-Fex+ could be reduced to Fe2+ by PDS, resulting in the disintegration of the HA-Fex+ shell and exposure of Fe0 core active sites. Furthermore, compared to similar catalysts synthesized with commercial HA and traditional chemicals, HA-Fex+@ZVI synthesized with multiple waste biomasses exhibited better performance. This research provides valuable insights for designing ZVI-based catalysts with excellent storage stability and ultraefficient PDS catalytic activity for AOPs.

Abstract
Regarded as one of the hallmarks of tumorigenesis and tumor progression, the evasion of apoptotic cell death would also account for treatment resistance or failure during cancer therapy. In this study, a Ca2+/Cu2+ dual-ion "nano trap" to effectively avoid cell apoptosis evasion by synchronously inducing paraptosis together with apoptosis was successfully designed and fabricated for breast cancer treatment. In brief, disulfiram (DSF)-loaded amorphous calcium carbonate nanoparticles (NPs) were fabricated via a gas diffusion method. Further on, the Cu2+-tannic acid metal phenolic network was embedded onto the NPs surface by self-assembling, followed by mDSPE-PEG/lipid capping to form the DSF-loaded Ca2+/Cu2+ dual-ions "nano trap". The as-prepared nanotrap would undergo acid-triggered biodegradation upon being endocytosed by tumor cells within the lysosome for Ca2+, Cu2+, and DSF releasing simultaneously. The released Ca2+ could cause mitochondrial calcium overload and lead to hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) overexpression. Meanwhile, Ca2+/reactive oxygen species-associated mitochondrial dysfunction would lead to paraptosis cell death. Most importantly, cell paraptosis could be further induced and strengthened by the toxic dithiocarbamate (DTC)-copper complexes formed by the Cu2+ combined with the DTC, the metabolic products of DSF. Additionally, the released Cu2+ will be reduced by intracellular glutathione to generate Cu+, which can catalyze the H2O2 to produce a toxic hydroxyl radical by a Cu+-mediated Fenton-like reaction for inducing cell apoptosis. Both in vitro cellular assays and in vivo antitumor evaluations confirmed the cancer therapeutic efficiency by the dual ion nano trap. This study can broaden the cognition scope of dual-ion-mediated paraptosis together with apoptosis via a multifunctional nanoplatform.

Abstract
Puerarin (Pue) is a naturally bioactive compound with many potential functions in regulating blood glucose and lipid metabolism. However, the low bioavailability and rapid elimination in vivo limit the application of Pue in diabetic treatment. Here, we developed a metal-polyphenol-functionalized microgel to effectively deliver Pue in vivo and eventually alleviate the onset of diabetes. Pue was initially encapsulated in alginate beads through electrospray technology, and further immersed in Fe3+ and tannic acid solution from tannic acid (TA)-iron (Fe) coatings (TF). These constructed Pue@SA-TF microgels exhibited uniform spheres with an average size of 367.89 ± 18.74 µm and high encapsulation efficiency of Pue with 61.16 ± 1.39%. In vivo experiments proved that compared with free Pue and microgels without TF coatings, the biological distribution of Pue@SA-TF microgels specifically accumulated in the small intestine, prolonged the retention time of Pue, and achieved a high effectiveness in vivo. Anti-diabetic experimental results showed that Pue@SA-TF microgels significantly improved the levels of blood glucose, blood lipid, and oxidative stress in diabetic mice. Meanwhile, histopathological observations indicated that Pue@SA-TF microgels could significantly alleviate the damage to the liver, kidney, and pancreas in diabetic mice. Our study provided an effective strategy for oral delivery of Pue and achieved high anti-diabetic efficacy.
