In this study, we used a simple and rapid colourimetric reaction for visual sensing of Fe2+ and Pb2+ ions in water by employing nano-MnO2 as a natural oxidase mimic to respectively catalyse ABTS and TMB in citrate-phosphate buffer solution (C-PBS) at 25°C and pH 3.8. It was found that nano-MnO2 possessed highly oxidase-mimicking activity with the Km values of 0.030 and 0.027 toward ABTS and TMB, respectively, indicating TMB had a stronger affinity on nano-MnO2 than ABTS. Interestingly, the presence of 0.01 mmol·L−1 Fe2+/Pb2+ ion was able to significantly down-regulate the activity of MnO2 nanozyme in nano-MnO2-mediated ABTS reaction processes (P < 0.01), which mainly due to the strong adsorption of metal ion toward nano-MnO2 surface via the electrostatic attractions, thus leading to the passivation and inactivation of MnO2 nanozyme catalytic activity. Thereinto, Fe2+ reacted with multivalent manganese by oxidation-reduction, while Pb2+ was specifically adsorbed onto the surface of MnO2 nanozyme and formed complexes. Notably, only Fe2+ ion inhibited the activity of MnO2 nanozyme-TMB with a detection limit as low as 1.0 μmol·L−1. In MnO2 nanozyme-ABTS sensing systems, Fe2+ and Pb2+ ions detection limit of 0.5 and 2.0 μmol·L−1 were, respectively, achieved with a linear response range of 0–0.02 and 0–0.8 mmol·L−1, implying the developed MnO2 nanozyme-ABTS sensor was potentially applicable for the visual determination of Fe2+ and Pb2+ ions in water. In the real water samples, MnO2 nanozyme-ABTS achieved high accuracy (relative errors: 3.4‒10.5%) and recovery (96‒110%) for respective detection of Fe2+ and Pb2+ ions. The simple and rapid MnO2 nanozyme-ABTS sensing systems might provide a practical assay for visual detection of Fe2+ and Pb2+ ions in the environmental water samples.

The CRISPR-Cas system was developed into a molecular diagnostic tool with high sensitivity, low cost, and high specificity in recent years. Colorimetric assays based on nanozymes offer an attractive point-of-care testing method for their low cost of use and user-friendly operation. Here, a MnO2 nanozyme-mediated CRISPR-Cas12a system was instituted to detect SARS-CoV-2. MnO2 nanorods linked to magnetic beads via a single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) linker used as an oxidase-like nanozyme inducing the color change of 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine, which can be distinguished by the naked eye. The detection buffer color will change when the Cas12a is activated by SARS-CoV-2 and indiscriminately cleave the linker ssDNA. The detection limit was 10 copies per microliter and showed no cross-reaction with other coronaviruses. The nanozyme-mediated CRISPR-Cas12a system shows high selectivity and facile operation, with great potential for molecular diagnosis in point-of-care testing applications.

2-Mercaptobenzothiazole (MBT) poses an unignorable risk to the aquatic environment and human health. Traditional analysis and prevention methods are unsuitable for broader applications due to their complexity and high-cost instruments. To address these challenges, a novel CuO@MnO 2 (CM) nanozyme has been designed to establish absorbance-colorimetric dual-mode sensing and modulate the content of MBT through reactive oxygen species (ROS) mediated oxidative degradation . CM nanozyme exhibits notable catalytic ability with K m 13.6 μM and V max 0.763 μM/s. Furthermore, by integrating the generated 1 O 2 , O 2 •- and •OH in the presence of O 2 , the absorbance and colorimetric method for MBT sensing is developed, offering a linear detection range from 0.1 to 15 μM through the color change of 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) and TMBox. Besides, the CM nanozyme can oxidatively decompose MBT, significantly reducing its biotoxicity without needing photocatalytic auxiliary equipment. This work presents a promising MBT detection and degradation approach in future applications.

The development of multifunctional hydrogels, especially hydrogels with antibacterial and antioxidant properties, plays a crucial role in the effective healing of diabetic wounds. This work proposed a novel composite hydrogel with the oxidized gellan gum (O-GG) and hyaluronic acid (HA) as the hydrogel matrix, and the crosslinking was realized via the Ca 2+ . ε-polylysine/MnO 2 nanozymes (EM) offered antioxidant and antibacterial properties to the corresponding composite hydrogels. The results verified that the O-GG/HA@EM hydrogel exhibited excellent cytocompatibility and injectability. The CCK-8 data indicated that the proliferation rate of mouse fibroblasts reached 314.58 % after three days of coculture with the hydrogel. The hydrogel effectively alleviated oxidative stress and hypoxic microenvironments in wounds, inhibited bacterial infection, and promoted angiogenesis, thereby significantly accelerating the healing process of diabetic wounds. Data from a mouse diabetic wound model revealed that the wound closure rate in the sample group reached 92.4 % after 14 days. This composite hydrogel provides a novel and effective solution for the treatment of chronic diabetic wounds.

Manganese dioxide (MnO 2 )-based heterogeneous catalysts have gained significant attention in nanozyme research due to their exceptional oxidase-mimicking capabilities. This work reports the rational design of MnO 2 functionalized magnetic carbon nanotubes (Fe 3 O 4 @C@MnO 2 ) through a multistep synthesis strategy. The magnetic N-doped hollow carbon substrate (Fe 3 O 4 @C) was first synthesized via controlled pyrolysis of FeOOH-coated polydopamine precursors. Subsequent interfacial redox reaction with KMnO 4 enabled the in situ deposition of ultrathin MnO 2 nanosheets on the nanotube substrate, forming a triple-component coaxial architecture. This hollow structure not only facilitates dense MnO 2 deposition but also maintains robust magnetic responsiveness. The obtained Fe 3 O 4 @C@MnO 2 exhibits remarkable enzyme-mimetic capability, catalyzing TMB chromogenic conversion with 0.92-fold enhanced catalytic performance relative to pristine MnO 2 . Systematic mechanistic studies reveal that tannic acid (TA) competitively inhibits ·OH radical generation via MnO 2 -TA complexation, while the carbon interlayer enhances electron transfer efficiency. Owing to the superior enzyme-mimetic performance of Fe 3 O 4 @C@MnO 2 and their inhibition effect by TA, a sensitive colorimetric biosensing assay was fabricated, achieving a TA detection limit of 0.029 μM with a 0.096–4.82 μM linear concentration range. This work exemplifies the synergy of structural engineering and component optimization in designing multifunctional nanozymes, showing potential applications in food quality monitoring, environmental analysis, and point-of-care diagnostics.

Development of multifunctional enzymatic nanomaterials with rapid and sensitive characteristics for glutathione determination is extremely urgent for early cancer diagnosis. Herein, a core–shell ultrasensitive nanozyme (denoted as CPT/DM-FA) for triple-mode glutathione sensing and specific in vitro cancer detection is constructed. The dendritic mesoporous silica nanoparticle (DMSN) core not only acts as a camptothecin carrier, but also offers the nanoplatform to synthesize the MnO2 shell. Due to the DMSN-regulated high dispersion of MnO2, the atomic utilization efficiency of MnO2 is surprisingly enhanced, and leads to notable enzymatic activity with Km 0.136 μM and Vmax 0.59 μM/s. In addition, by integrating the quenching ability based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer and oxidase-mimic-mediated 1O2, O2– generation of MnO2, the fluorescence, UV–vis, and colorimetric method for glutathione sensing is established with a comprehensive linear range from 2 to 250 μM and a limit of detection of 0.654 μM. Besides, after surface folic acid modification, the CPT/DM-FA could also specifically detect cancer cells from 25 to 1 50 000 through the color reaction of 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine. We believe this nanozyme could afford a potential strategy to amplify the nanozyme activity for further biomedical applications.

Ratiometric fluorescent nanoplatforms with self-calibrating capabilities offer enhanced detection accuracy by minimizing environmental interference. However, challenges such as signal cross-interference and nanomaterial instability persist in complex biological systems. To address these issues, we developed a glutathione (GSH)-responsive ratiometric fluorescent nanoprobe by integrating a porphyrin-based metal-organic framework (PCN-224) with MnO 2 nanosheets (NSs). The PCN-224 serves as both a nanocarrier and luminescent moiety, while MnO 2 acts as oxidase (OXD) mimetic nanozyme and the reactive site for GSH. The ratiometric detection mechanism relies on the intrinsic fluorescence of PCN-224 (emission at 655 nm) and the OXD-like activity of PCN-224@MnO 2 , which catalyzes the oxidation of o -phenylenediamine (OPD) to generate fluorescent 2,3-diaminophenazine (DAP, emission at 570 nm). Upon GSH exposure, the redox reaction between GSH and MnO 2 produces Mn 2+ , quenching the OXD-like activity and diminishing the DAP fluorescence, while the PCN-224 fluorescence recovers due to MnO 2 decomposition. The nanoplatform exhibits a wide detection range spanning from 0.1 to 60 μM with a low detection limit of 15 nM and high selectivity. Furthermore, it enables accurate GSH quantification in complex biological matrices, including human serum and cell lysates, and facilitates real-time monitoring of endogenous and exogenous GSH in living cells via fluorescence imaging. This study not only presents sensitive and reliable platform for GSH detection, but also overcomes key limitations in ratiometric sensing, such as signal interference and nanomaterial instability, by utilizing a stimuli-responsive fluorescent nanoprobe design.

The osteoarthritis (OA) symptoms cannot be fully remedied by using only a single functional component because of its complex pathogenesis. Herein, a MnO 2 nanozyme-encapsulated hydrogel was fabricated via dispersing bovine serum albumin (BSA)-MnO 2 (BM) nanoparticles (NPs) into a hyaluronic acid (HA)/platelet-rich plasma (PRP) gel network crosslinked by Schiff base reaction. Due to the self-healing and pH-responsive properties of Schiff base bonds, the hydrogel not only functioned as viscosupplementation but also exhibited pH-responsive release of BM NPs and growth factors in PRP. The BM NPs could attenuate the severe oxidative stress , and the PRP could promote chondrocyte proliferation. In a rat OA model, the HA/PRP/BM hydrogel markedly suppressed cartilage matrix degradation. Both the in vitro and in vivo studies showed that this novel hydrogel platform could inhibit the development of osteoarthritis through a synergetic effect of mechanical dissipation, depressing inflammation, facilitating cartilage repair, and thus has essential application prospects in OA treatment.

Excessive oxidative stress, dysregulated immune homeostasis, and disruption of the intestinal epithelial barrier are crucial features of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Traditional treatments focusing solely on inflammation resolution remain unsatisfactory. Herein, a yeast-inspired orally administered nanocomposite was developed. First, the MD@MPDA core was fabricated by integrating manganese dioxide (MnO2) nanozymes onto diallyl trisulfide (H2S prodrug)-loaded mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticles (MPDA). Then, yeast cell wall (YCW) was chosen to encapsulate MD@MPDA, namely, YMD@MPDA. The β-glucan embedded in the YCW shell not only protected the nanocomposite from the harsh gastrointestinal environment but also allowed the targeting enrichment in the inflamed colon. Furthermore, M1 macrophages triggered the intracellular GSH-responsive H2S release in the pathological microenvironment. MD@MPDA effectively alleviated inflammatory responses by MnO2-mediated ROS-scavenging and H2S-participated immunomodulation. The synergistic action contributed to macrophage mitochondrial function restoration and M2 polarization by suppressing NOX4 signaling and p38 MAPK pro-inflammatory signaling. In the mice model of dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced IBD, the multipronged manner of scavenging oxidative stress, remodeling innate and adaptive immune homeostasis, and reshaping gut microbiota caused by YMD@MPDA effectively ameliorated inflammation and restored intestinal barrier functions. Overall, the YMD@MPDA nanocomposite provides a promising codelivery strategy of antioxidative nanozymes and gas prodrugs for the comprehensive management of IBD.
