Nanomaterials having enzyme-like activity (nanozymes) make them suitable candidates for various biomedical applications. In this study, we demonstrate the morphology-dependent enzyme mimetic activity of Mn O nanoparticles. It is found that Mn O nanoparticles mimic the functions of all three cellular antioxidant enzymes: superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione peroxidase (GPx). Interestingly, the nanozyme activity of Mn O depends on various factors including size, morphology, surface area, and the redox properties of the metal ions. The Mn O nanoflowers exhibited remarkably high activity in all three enzyme systems and the order of multienzyme activity of different morphologies was: flowers ≫ flakes > hexagonal plates≈polyhedrons≈cubes. Interestingly, all five nanoforms are taken up by the mammalian cells and were found to be biocompatible, with very low cytotoxicity. The activity of the most active nanoflowers was studied in primary human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) and human pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (hPMEC) and it was found that Mn O does not reduce the level of nitric oxide (NO). This is in contrast to the effect of some of the Mn-porphyrin-based SOD mimetics, which are known to scavenge NO in endothelial cells.
具有酶样活性的纳米材料(纳米酶)使它们成为各种生物医学应用的合适候选者。在这项研究中,我们证明了 MnO 纳米粒子的形态依赖性酶模拟活性。研究发现,MnO 纳米粒子模拟了三种细胞抗氧化酶的功能:超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)和谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶(GPx)。有趣的是,MnO 的纳米酶活性取决于多种因素,包括尺寸、形态、表面积和金属离子的氧化还原性质。MnO 纳米花在所有三种酶系统中表现出极高的活性,不同形态的多酶活性顺序为:花>薄片>六方板≈多面体≈立方体。有趣的是,所有五种纳米形态都被哺乳动物细胞摄取,并且被发现具有生物相容性,细胞毒性非常低。最活跃的纳米花的活性在原代人脐静脉内皮细胞(HUVEC)和人肺微血管内皮细胞(hPMEC)中进行了研究,结果发现 MnO 不会降低一氧化氮(NO)的水平。这与一些基于 Mn-卟啉的 SOD 模拟物的作用形成对比,已知这些模拟物会在血管内皮细胞中清除 NO。
