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.

This invention discloses a solution for inhibiting keloids and its preparation method. Physiological saline is treated with low-temperature atmospheric pressure plasma (CAP) to become activated saline. The activated saline contains a large amount of reactive oxygen species and reactive nitrogen species. After injection into the body, its active ingredients induce disulfide death in fibroblasts derived from keloids, thereby inhibiting keloid formation. Compared with existing methods for inhibiting keloids, this application has several unique advantages. First, the effect and degree of CAP activation on fibroblast life and death are dose-dependent, allowing for precise control of the effect. Second, the full spectrum of active species generated by CAP can synergistically act on multiple biological targets, reducing the risk of recurrence. Third, CAP is administered through the process of generating an activated solution from a liquid medium, enabling non-invasive or minimally invasive drug delivery and greatly reducing the risk of systemic toxicity. Finally, CAP technology avoids complex biological agent preparation processes, making it simpler to operate and lower in cost. This invention fills the gap in research on low-temperature atmospheric pressure plasma inhibition of keloids.

This invention belongs to the field of nanobiomedicine technology, specifically relating to a mitochondrial-targeting copper-based nanoparticle (Qu@Cu-SS31) and its application in the preparation of drugs for treating myocardial infarction. The nanoparticles consist of quercetin (Que) and copper ions (Cu²⁺). + The nanoparticles, consisting of a self-assembly of the mitochondrial-targeting peptide SS31, exhibit a uniform, near-spherical morphology with an average particle size of 17.2 ± 1.6 nm. These nanoparticles specifically target cardiomyocyte mitochondria, responsively releasing Cu²⁺. + Furthermore, Qu@Cu-SS31 restores cardiomyocyte copper homeostasis by downregulating the copper metabolism negative regulator COMMD1, the copper uptake protein CTR1, and the copper chaperone protein CCS.

This application provides a CA-crosslinked, Isatis indigotica-derived carbon dots-loaded dual-responsive OPU hydrogel, its preparation method, and its applications. The hydrogel is prepared using oxidized pullulan as a backbone and chlorogenic acid as a crosslinking agent; carbon dots derived from Isatis indigotica are loaded into the hydrogel. This hydrogel exhibits excellent injectability and self-healing ability, effectively conforming to irregular wound surfaces. Under the stimulation of the acidic and oxidative microenvironment unique to infected wounds, the hydrogel gradually dissociates, achieving controlled release of Isatis indigotica carbon dots and chlorogenic acid. The Isatis indigotica carbon dots exhibit potent antibacterial activity, while chlorogenic acid synergistically works to efficiently scavenge excess reactive oxygen species and reactive nitrogen species, promoting tissue regeneration and reducing inflammatory responses. In vitro and in vivo experiments have confirmed that this hydrogel possesses excellent biocompatibility, exerting anti-infective, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory effects in the early stages of healing, and promoting angiogenesis and accelerating wound healing in the later stages.

This invention provides a magnesium alloy, its preparation method, and its applications. The magnesium alloy comprises a magnesium alloy body and a peroxide coating covering the surface of the magnesium alloy body. A protein carrier is adsorbed on the surface of the peroxide coating, and a NO donor is loaded onto the surface of the protein carrier. The magnesium alloy body can generate hydrogen gas in situ within the acidic tumor microenvironment, downregulating the expression of heat shock proteins in tumor cells, making tumor cells sensitive to temperature, and killing tumor cells under a low-intensity alternating magnetic field. Simultaneously, the peroxide coating stimulates the release of NO from the NO donor in the acidic tumor microenvironment, while the magnesium alloy body promotes the production of heat-activated oxygen substances inside cancer cells, which further react with NO to produce more toxic reactive nitrogen substances, achieving further killing of tumor cells.
