Celastrol (CEL) has garnered significant interest for its anti-tumour properties and potential colorectal cancer (CRC) treatment. However, clinical use is constrained by limited bioavailability toxicity. Herein, a biotin-decorated CEL nano-drug delivery system using zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8) as carrier was synthesized, named CEL@ZIF-8@BIO. It exhibited excellent water solubility, efficient loading of CEL, high release rate in acidic environments. In vitro experiments demonstrated that CEL@ZIF-8@BIO inhibited proliferation, induced cell cycle arrest G0/G1 phase, increased ROS production reduced mitochondrial membrane CRC cells. RNA-Seq analysis indicated the anticancer mechanism may be linked to ferroptosis increase Fe2 + levels, oxidative stress, lipid peroxidation, dysfunction Furthermore, these effects could reversed inhibitor. vivo research revealed significantly growth tumours reduce toxicity associated with Taken together, shows great promise therapy due improved efficacy

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide, and its prevention treatment face severe challenges. It crucial to improve targeting drugs on tumor cells tissues. Celastrol (CeT), as an active ingredient traditional Chinese medicine, possesses strong antitumor effects, especially in triggering apoptosis HCC. However, due toxicity lack targeting, application greatly limited. HMCLPs, a nano-biomimetic platform carrying CeT with controllable drug release, enhanced immunocompatibility, were developed for first time, which can be used By utilizing homologous cell membranes hyaluronic acid (HA), HMCLPs precisely target regions release controlled manner. Both vitro vivo studies have demonstrated that loaded significantly increased accumulation reactive oxygen species (ROS), induced mitochondrial damage, triggered HCC cells, resulting effective minimal adverse reaction. The development nanocarrier system delivery offers promising therapeutic strategy This innovative approach improves targeted bioavailability CeT, dramatically induces exerts powerful effects while minimizing systemic toxicity. present study highlights potential combining nanocarriers natural compounds such enhance efficacy reduce

Abstract Single pack epoxy adhesives, known for their simple operation process, combined with good reactivity at moderate temperatures and excellent storage stability, have gained extensive attention. An appropriate accelerator is crucial enhancing performance. This study demonstrates that the zinc zeolitic imidazolate framework ZIF‐8 (Zn(2‐methylimidazole) 2 ) can effectively serve as an effective epoxy‐anhydride system, evidenced by complete exothermic curing curve obtained via differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) tests of (A‐128) anhydride (THPA) adhesive sample ZIF‐8. The optimal addition amount (0.9%) was determined assessing glass transition temperature ( T g cured resin varying weight fractions. Furthermore, ideal conditions—gel 388.4 K, 416.7 post‐treatment 441.9 K—were established analyzing heating curves different circumstances. system exhibited superior stability compared to commercial accelerators like PN‐23 or DMP‐30. attributed steric hindrance coordination bonds ZIF‐8, indicated a large pre‐exponential factor A 1 = 5.58 × 10 8 low‐value reaction rate constant k 0.3461 −3 s −1 ). In addition, kinetic parameters, autocatalytic equation model been derived through isothermal kinetics analysis.
