Nanozyme mediated catalytic therapy is an attractive strategy for cancer therapy. However, the nanozymes are tended to assemble into 3D architectures, resulting in poor catalytic efficiency for therapy. This study designs the assembly of nanozymes and natural enzymes into the layered structures featuring hexagonal pores as nanozyme clusterphene and investigates their catalytic therapy with the assistance of electric field. The nanozyme-based clusterphene consists of polyoxometalate (POM) and natural glucose oxidase (GOx), named POMG-based clusterphene, which facilitate multi-enzyme activities including peroxidase (POD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione oxidase (GPx). The highly ordered layers with hexagonal pores of POMG units significantly improve the peroxidase-like (POD-like) activity of the nanozyme and thus the sustained production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). At the same time, GOx can increase endogenous HO and produce gluconic acid while consuming glucose, the nutrient of tumor cell growth. The results indicate that the POD-like activity of POMG-based clusterphene increase approximately sevenfold under electrical stimulation compared with Nd-substituted keggin type POM cluster (NdPW). The experiments both in vitro and in vivo show that the proposed POMG-based clusterphene mediated cascade catalytic therapy is capable of efficient tumor inhibiting and preventing tumor proliferation in tumor-bearing mice model, promising as an excellent candidate for catalytic therapy.
纳米酶介导的催化治疗是癌症治疗的一种有吸引力的策略。然而,纳米酶往往会组装成 3D 结构,从而导致治疗的催化效率低下。本研究设计了纳米酶和天然酶组装成具有六方孔的层状结构作为纳米酶 clusterphene,并在电场的辅助下研究了它们的催化治疗作用。基于纳米酶的 clusterphene 由多金属氧酸盐(POM)和天然葡萄糖氧化酶(GOx)组成,命名为 POMG 基 clusterphene,它促进了包括过氧化物酶(POD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)和谷胱甘肽氧化酶(GPx)在内的多种酶活性。具有六方孔的高度有序的 POMG 单元层显著提高了纳米酶的过氧化物酶样(POD-like)活性,从而持续产生活性氧物种(ROS)。同时,GOx 可以增加内源性 HO 并产生葡萄糖酸,同时消耗葡萄糖,葡萄糖是肿瘤细胞生长的营养物质。结果表明,与 Nd 取代的 keggin 型 POM 簇(NdPW)相比,在电刺激下,POMG 基 clusterphene 的 POD-like 活性增加了约 7 倍。体外和体内实验表明,所提出的基于 POMG 的 clusterphene 介导的级联催化治疗能够有效地抑制肿瘤,并防止荷瘤小鼠模型中的肿瘤增殖,有望成为催化治疗的优秀候选物。
