Application of diatomic iron-iron site nano-enzyme in preparation of targeted osteoarthritis treatment medicine by relieving oxidative stress and cartilage degeneration

The invention relates to a diatomic iron-iron site nano-enzyme constructed by relieving oxidative stress and cartilage degeneration and used for targeted osteoarthritis treatment. According to the invention, a nitrogen-doped porous carbon anchored diatomic iron nano enzyme catalyst (Fe2-NCs) with Fe-Fe dimer coordination is developed by using a'subject-object 'strategy. The Fe2-NCs protect cartilage cells from oxidative stress induced apoptosis by modulating ROS and active nitrogen species (RNS) and promoting O2 release. In addition, Fe2-NCs restores mitochondrial function by inhibiting NOX4 expression, improving ATP production, and normalizing COXIV levels. In an in-vivo OA model, the Fe2-NCs can reduce the expression of a pro-inflammatory medium COX-2 through an NF-kappa B signal channel, inhibit the up-regulation of MMP-13 and delay the degradation of type II collagen. The invention provides a new theoretical framework and methodological approach for the treatment of osteoarthritis, and has important clinical and scientific significance.

A method for culturing NK cells and its application

This invention relates to the field of cell culture technology, and discloses a method for culturing NK cells and its applications. When NK cells enter a hypoxic environment, not only do their cytotoxic activity and proliferative capacity rapidly decline, but they also experience metabolic disorders such as impaired mitochondrial function, insufficient ATP production, and abnormal accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), leading to functional failure and limiting their application in tumor therapy. Existing technologies mainly rely on constant or single-stage hypoxia induction, failing to improve the insufficient hypoxia adaptation of NK cells at the metabolic level. Therefore, this invention provides a method that uses repeated acclimatization culture with gradually decreasing oxygen concentration to allow NK cells to gradually adapt to the metabolic demands of a hypoxic environment. NK cells cultured using this method exhibit a more stable metabolic state and superior cytotoxic activity in a hypoxic environment, significantly enhancing their anti-tumor efficacy and solving the problem of metabolic imbalance and rapid functional loss of NK cells in the hypoxic tumor microenvironment in existing technologies.
