Flumequine, a quinolone antibacterial drug, has been widely used in aquiculture. However, excess use of flumequine may lead to antibiotic residues in animals and its rapid determination remains a challenge. In this study, a visual lanthanide metal–organic frame probe of Trp@ZIF-8/Tb3+ was used for the determination of flumequine. The probe was stepwise synthetized by tryptophan (Trp), zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8), and terbium (III). In the presence of flumequine, the fluorescence of Tb3+ in Trp@ZIF-8/Tb3+ was sensitized. The fluorescence method was fast, requiring only 40 s, the detection range was wide from 0.03 to 1.53 μM, and the detection limit was 0.018 μM. Moreover, the Trp@ZIF-8/Tb3+ probe had good specificity and strong anti-interference ability, which was used for flumequine determination in milk, tap water, and serum. Furthermore, the Trp@ZIF-8/Tb3+ probe provided a method for the rapid determination of flumequine on test strips: The color changed from blue to green with increasing concentration. Hence, the developed Trp@ZIF-8/Tb3+ probe offers an efficient and convenient method for flumequine determination.

Graphical A seeded growth synthetic strategy has been developed to synthesize ZIF-8 nanostructures in the form of multipods. Systematic studies were carried out to reveal the effect of several reaction parameters on the growth pattern and thus product morphology. We report a facile method to fabricate ZIF-8 nanostructures in the form of multipods. The success of this work relies on the use of seeded growth as the synthetic strategy, where uniform polyhedral ZIF-8 nanocrystals were prepared initially and served as seeds, followed by the addition of Zn precursor and imidazole to allow preferable growth to specific facets of the seeds and thus the formation of multipod structure. In particular, we were able to rationally synthesize ZIF-8 nanostructures in the form of hexapod and dendrite, respectively, using the similar seeded growth procedure, when the seed morphology was cube and truncated rhombic dodecahedron, respectively. Systematic studies were carried out to reveal the effect of several reaction parameters (e. g., seed amount and CTAB concentration) on growth pattern and thus product morphology. The current work demonstrates the feasibility and versatility of seeded growth for synthesis of colloidal metal-organic frameworks (CMOFs) with multipod structure and could find important use in fabrication of CMOFs with controlled sizes and shapes.

Mycotoxins, formed in lots of foods during the production, processing and transportation processes, are the secondary metabolites of Fusarium genus, Penicillium and Aspergillus. Aflatoxin B 1 (AFB 1 ) is considered as one of the most dangerous mycotoxins for human and animals due to its strong carcinogenicity and hepatotoxic effects. Hence, degradation of AFB 1 completely or reduction of AFB 1 to a low degree content has caused much attentions. In this paper, novel ZIF-8/ZnS hollow polyhedral heterostructures were successfully synthesized by sulphurizing ZIF-8 via solvothermal method. The synthesized samples were used as catalysts for AFB 1 degradation under UV light irradiation. All as-synthesized samples were analyzed by XRD , SEM, BET, UV–vis, ESR and so on. The results show that parts of ZIF-8 can be sulphurized by TAA to synthesize ZnS and the ZIF-8 particles were etched to form the hollow structure. The sulphurizing degree of ZIF-8 has great influence on the photocatalytic activity of ZIF-8/ZnS. Compared with ZIF-8/ZnS (50) and ZIF-8/ZnS (150), ZIF-8/ZnS (100) exhibited the best photocatalytic activity and could degrade 98.6 % of AFB 1 . Except that, the reactive species of ZIF-8/ZnS (100) were confirmed to be ·OH and ·O 2 − . This strategy of coupling MOFs with semiconductor provides a facile method to synthesize for catalyst with enhanced photocatalytic activity for degradation of food pollutants produced by aflatoxins.

As one of most studied MOFs , extensive efforts have been devoted on the novel strategy for tailoring the size of zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8). We report here a facile and general method that enables the size-controllable engineering of zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8) by changing the addition order of Zn(NO 3 ) 2 ·6H 2 O (A) and 2-methylimidazole (B), which is very different from the all reported methods. Significant size difference for ZIF-8 s was observed between adding A-methanol solution to B-methanol solution and adding B-methanol solution to A-methanol solution under room temperature magnetic stirring. The influence of addition order on the crystal size was also applicable for preparing ZIF-8 encapsulating metal precursor (M-ZIF-8). We believe that this work not only pave a new way for efficient and general size-controllable design of ZIF-8 and M-ZIF-8, but can be also bridged with other size engineering methods (such as solvothermal method).

ZIF-8@ZIF-8/PAN nanofibers were fabricated by the incorporation of zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) with electrospun polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofibers, and following by the in-situ growth of ZIFs onto the surface of the nanofibers. The abundant micropores and active sites of ZIFs supplied the effective adsorption and reduction to heavy metal ions of Cr(VI). The obtained novel nanofibers overcome the crystal agglomeration of ZIF-8 effectively and maintained the porous structures by the nanofibrous morphology of PAN and the evenly distributed ZIF-8, and thus exhibited relative higher surface area (871.0 m 2 g −1 ) and excellent loading efficiency of ZIF-8 (82.9 %). As target adsorbate, Cr(VI) could be removed from aqueous media effectively with the maximum adsorption capacity ( q max ) of 39.68 mg g −1 , and with better recyclability. Significantly, guided with the proposed feasible adsorption-reduction mechanism of Cr(VI), toxic Cr(VI) ions could be further reduced partially to the relative harmless Cr(III). Potentially, the present stable and advantageous approach to loading and growing metal organic frameworks (MOFs) onto electrospun nanofibers could be extended to other water-stable MOFs and to remove various heavy metal ions.

Telomerase is constitutively overexpressed in the majority of human cancers and telomerase inhibition provides a promising broad-spectrum anticancer therapeutic strategy. BIBR 1532 is a well-known synthetic telomerase inhibitor that blocks the enzymatic activity of hTERT, the catalytic subunit of telomerase. However, water insolubility of BIBR 1532 leads to low cellular uptake and inadequate delivery and thus, limits its anti-tumor effects. Zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) is considered as an attractive drug delivery vehicle for improved transport, release and anti-tumor effects of BIBR 1532. Herein, ZIF-8 and BIBR[email protected]were synthesized, respectively, and the physicochemical characterizations confirmed the successful encapsulation of BIBR 1532 in ZIF-8 coupled with an improved stability of BIBR 1532. ZIF-8 could alter the permeability of lysosomal membrane probably by the imidazole ring-dependent protonation. Moreover, ZIF-8 encapsulation facilitated the cellular uptake and release of BIBR 1532 with more accumulation in the nucleus. BIBR 1532 encapsulation with ZIF-8 triggered a more obvious growth inhibition of cancer cells as compared with free BIBR 1532. A more potent inhibition on hTERT mRNA expression, aggravated G0/G1 arrest accompanied with an increased cellular senescence were detected in BIBR[email protected]cancer cells. Our work has provided preliminary information on improving the transport, release and efficacy of water-insoluble small molecule drugs by using ZIF-8 as a delivery vehicle.Keywords:ZIF-8;drug loading;transport;protonation effect;telomerase inhibitor

Hypoxia and overexpression of glutathione (GSH) are typical characteristics of the tumor microenvironment, which severely hinders cancer treatments. Here, we design a novel biodegradable therapeutic system, O2–Cu/ZIF-8@Ce6/ZIF-8@F127 (OCZCF), to simultaneously achieve GSH depletion and O2-enhanced combination therapy. Notably, the doped Cu2+ doubles the O2 storage capacity of the ZIF-8 matrix, which makes OCZCF an excellent pH-sensitive O2 reservoir for conquering tumor hypoxia, enhancing the photodynamic therapy (PDT) efficiency of chlorin e6 (Ce6) under 650 nm laser irradiation. Moreover, the released Cu2+ can act as a smart reactive oxygen species protector by consuming intracellular GSH. The byproduct Cu+ will undergo highly efficient Fenton-like reaction to achieve chemodynamic therapy (CDT) in the presence of abundant H2O2. The accompanying O2 will further alleviate hypoxia. The in vitro and in vivo experimental data indicate that OCZCF could cause remarkable tumor inhibition through enhanced synergetic PDT and CDT, which may open up a new path for cancer therapy.

Based on the neck-controlled conduction model of chemiresistive gas sensors, construction of neck-controlled conduction networks in metal oxide films is an efficient method to improve their sensitivity. In this work, we develop a facile route to prepare the neck-connected ZnO (NC-ZnO) films with controllable diameters of the necked part by the sintering of core-shell zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8)@ZnO films. In order to certify the enhancement of sensitivity by construction of neck-controlled conduction networks, their gas sensing properties towards ethanol are systematically investigated. The results demonstrate that the sensitivity of the optimal NC-ZnO film is dramatically improved, and the response value is about 6-times higher than that of ZnO film, reaching up to 124 ( I g /I a ) towards 50 ppm of ethanol. The results meet our expectation and are in conformity with the neck-controlled conduction model, which further indicates the developed approach in this work is expected to open up a new strategy for the preparation of neck-connected metal oxide films.

The water-soluble sulfated derivatives, apigenin-8-sulfonate sodium (AS) and apigenin-3′, 8-disulfonate sodium (ADS) derived from parent apigenin (AP), were synthesized and characterized by infrared (IR) spectra, hydrogen nuclear magnetic resonance ( 1 H NMR), carbon nuclear magnetic resonance ( 13 C NMR), high-resolution mass spectra (HRMS), and elemental analysis. The mice model of hepatotoxicity induced by d -Galactosamine ( d -GalN) was used to evaluate the hepatoprotective effects of AP, AS, and ADS. The results indicated that AP, AS, and ADS could reduce the level of serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and hepatic malondialdehyde (MDA) induced by d -GalN, and restore the activities of antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), and catalase (CAT) toward normal levels. The histological results also suggested that AP, AS, and ADS could alleviate liver toxicity. The possible mechanisms could be ascribed to the protection role of AP, AS, and ADS, which kept hepatic cells from oxidative damage and maintain intracellular antioxidant enzyme activity. These findings uncovered that AP, AS, and ADS were able to protect liver from d -GalN-induced acute damage, and AS was the most potent hepatoprotective drug among the three compounds.

Non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are widely used for analgesic and anti-inflammatory purposes but are often hampered by side effects such as gastrointestinal issues. Flurbiprofen, a potent NSAID, has significant therapeutic potential but may cause adverse effects due to its non-selective cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibition. This study aimed to enhance its efficacy and reduce side effects by developing flurbiprofen-loaded ZIF-8 nanoparticles (FP@ZIF-8). ZIF-8, with its high porosity, pH sensitivity, and biocompatibility, serves as an excellent carrier for targeted drug delivery. FP@ZIF-8 nanoparticles demonstrated successful flurbiprofen encapsulation with a drug loading rate of up to 53% and showed pH-responsive drug release. In vitro studies revealed that FP@ZIF-8 nanoparticles not only promoted the proliferation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) but also significantly reduced lipopolysaccharide (LPS) -induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in RAW264.7 macrophages. In vivo experiments further indicated that FP@ZIF-8 effectively alleviated inflammation-induced pain in mouse models and downregulated key inflammatory cytokines. The biosafety assessment confirmed the excellent biocompatibility and safety of FP@ZIF-8 nanoparticles. These findings suggest that FP@ZIF-8 is a promising drug delivery system for treating inflammatory pain conditions.

Octatrimethylsilyl-[8]cycloparaphenylene ([8]CPP-8TMS) was synthesized using the copper(I)-mediated homocoupling reaction of the highly functionalized biphenyl precursor and subsequent platinum-mediated macrocyclization. [8]CPP-8TMS was well characterized by spectroscopic techniques, including NMR, mass, UV–vis absorption, and fluorescence spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis indicates that [8]CPP-8TMS possesses a highly symmetric structure and adopts an intermolecular tubular packing. [8]CPP-8TMS can serve as a versatile platform for the efficient construction of unprecedented functional nanocarbon structures.

Nanoscale zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 coating with certain density can significantly improve the osteogenic activity of titanium implants both in vitro and in vivo. In this study, we loaded dimethyloxalylglycine into zeolitic imidazolate framework-8-modified implants (Z-AHT) to enhance the angiogenic activity, and the obtained products were denoted as D-AHT. Firstly, we characterized the specimens via scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, and surface contact angle. Then, the release kinetics of both zinc ions and dimethyloxalylglycine were investigated. To illustrate the combined effects of surface topography and chemistry (zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 and dimethyloxalylglycine) on osteogenic and angiogenic activity, MC3T3-E1 preosteoblast cells and human umbilical vein endothelial cells were respectively cultured on D-AHT. Pure Ti and Z-AHT were designated as control groups. As evidenced by the expression of osteogenic genes (Alp, Col1, Opg, and Runx2) and the secretion of ALP protein, D-AHT showed comparable osteogenic activity to Z-AHT which was better than that of Ti. Further angiogenesis assay revealed a better human umbilical vein endothelial cell migration on D-AHT, suggesting that D-AHT can be an attractive candidate for application in implant surface modification.
