α-lipoic acid (LA) is an essential cofactor for mitochondrial dehydrogenases and required cell growth, metabolic fuel production, antioxidant defense. In vitro, LA binds copper (Cu) with high affinity as endogenous membrane permeable metabolite could be advantageous in mitigating the consequences of Cu overload human diseases. We tested this hypothesis 3T3-L1 preadipocytes inactivated transporter Atp7a; these cells accumulate show morphologic changes mitochondria impairment. Treatment corrected morphology Atp7a −/− similar to chelator bathocuproinedisulfonate (BCS) improved function; however, mechanisms BCS action were different. Unlike BCS, did not decrease intracellular but instead increased selenium levels that low cells. Proteome analysis confirmed distinct responses compounds identified upregulation selenoproteins major effect on preadipocytes. Upregulation was associated GSH:GSSG ratio cellular compartments, which lowered by elevated Cu, reversal protein oxidation. Thus, diminishes toxic effects improving redox environment. also are decreased tissues a Wilson disease animal model, especially liver, making attractive candidate supplemental treatment disease.

Опубликована: Апрель 24, 2024

Abstract Single‐atom nanozymes (SAzymes) with atomically dispersed active sites are potential substitutes for natural enzymes. A systematic study of its multiple functions can in‐depth understand SAzymes's nature, which remains elusive. Here, we develop a novel ultrafast synthesis sputtered SAzymes by in situ bombarding‐embedding technique. Using this method, copper (Cu) (CuSA) is developed unreported unique planar Cu‐C 3 coordinated configuration. To enhance the tumor‐specific targeting, employ bioorthogonal approach to engineer CuSA, denoted as CuSACO. CuSACO not only exhibits minimal off‐target toxicity but also possesses exceptional ultrahigh catalase‐, oxidase‐, peroxidase‐like multienzyme activities, resulting reactive oxygen species (ROS) storm generation effective tumor destruction. Surprisingly, release Cu ions presence glutathione (GSH) induce cuproptosis, enhancing treatment efficacy. Notably, CuSACO′s remarkable photothermal properties enables precise therapy (PTT) on tumors. This, combined nanozyme catalytic cuproptosis and immunotherapy, efficiently inhibiting growth orthotopic breast tumors gliomas, lung metastasis. Our research highlights an innovative strategy utilize mechanism therapeutic efficacy, broadening exploration development enzyme‐like behavior physiological action SAzymes.
