Article Abstract

We report the rational design of metal-organic layers (MOLs) that are built from [Hf O (OH) (HCO ) ] secondary building units (SBUs) and Ir[bpy(ppy) ] - or [Ru(bpy) ] -derived tricarboxylate ligands (Hf-BPY-Ir or Hf-BPY-Ru; bpy=2,2'-bipyridine, ppy=2-phenylpyridine) and their applications in X-ray-induced photodynamic therapy (X-PDT) of colon cancer. Heavy Hf atoms in the SBUs efficiently absorb X-rays and transfer energy to Ir[bpy(ppy) ] or [Ru(bpy) ] moieties to induce PDT by generating reactive oxygen species (ROS). The ability of X-rays to penetrate deeply into tissue and efficient ROS diffusion through ultrathin 2D MOLs (ca. 1.2 nm) enable highly effective X-PDT to afford superb anticancer efficacy.

Integrating multi-enzyme systems within metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) has garnered significant attention in biocatalysis due to their tunable structural properties and ability to enhance enzyme performance in cascade reactions. The unique features of MOFs, such as well-defined pore apertures, tailorable compositions, and high loading capacity, facilitate the design of robust multi-enzyme bio-composites with enhanced recyclability and specificity. This review explores systematic approaches for the compartmentalization and positional co-immobilization of multiple enzymes within MOFs, focusing on two key strategies: (i) layer-by-layer assembly and (ii) pore-engineered compartmentalization.

Precise control of particle size, pore size distribution, and carbon layer spacing under green and low-energy conditions is critical for developing advanced carbon electrodes for supercapacitors and sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). Herein, we proposed a new strategy to prepare an MgAl bimetallic metal-organic framework (MOF) via a pre-ionization strategy, effectively avoiding harsh conditions and using organic solvents in hydrothermal synthesis. By fine-tuning the Mg/Al ratio and pyrolysis conditions, the particle size, pore size distribution and carbon layer spacing of rod porous carbon (RPC) were precisely adjusted.

The use of highly flammable materials such as foams, resins, and plastics has led to an increase in the frequency and severity of urban fires worldwide. To address this issue, this study developed a high-specific-surface-area mesoporous metal-organic framework (Fe-MOFs) with heat trapping and smoke adsorption. The Fe-MOFs, zinc tailings (ZTs), piperazine pyrophosphate (PAPP), and sodium lignosulfonate (LS) were used to modify rigid polyurethane foam (RPUF).

Burns complicated by antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections present a formidable clinical challenge, characterized by key pathological processes, including pathogen colonization, chronic inflammatory responses, and excessive accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Photocatalytic metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as a promising nonantibiotic strategy against antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections. However, the ROS generated by MOF-based photocatalysis is often insufficient for effective antibacterial activity, while excessive ROS may induce tissue injury.
