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.

Novel compositions of recombinant human CC10 protein have been generated by chemically modifying the pure protein in vitro. Several new synthetic preparations containing isoforms of chemically modified rhCC10 have been generated by processes that utilize reactive oxygen species and reactive nitrogen species.

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.
