Piezoelectric enhanced sulfur doped graphdiyne nanozymes for synergistic ferroptosis–apoptosis anticancer therapy

Abstract Graphdiyne has excellent potential due to its enzymatic properties. Metal-free sulfur-doped Graphdiyne (S-GDY) has piezoelectric characteristics, and ultrasonic excitation of S-GDY enhances peroxidase activity. It can turn hydrogen peroxide into toxic hydroxyl radicals and induce apoptosis...

description Abstract Graphdiyne has excellent potential due to its enzymatic properties. Metal-free sulfur-doped Graphdiyne (S-GDY) has piezoelectric characteristics, and ultrasonic excitation of S-GDY enhances peroxidase activity. It can turn hydrogen peroxide into toxic hydroxyl radicals and induce apoptosis in 4T1 cells. More importantly, the ultrasound (US) enhanced nanozyme induced 4T1 cell ferroptosis by promoting an imbalanced redox reaction due to glutathione depletion and glutathione peroxidase 4 inactivation. S-GDY exhibited enhanced nanozyme activity in vitro and in vivo that may directly trigger apoptosis-ferroptosis for effective tumor therapy. Altogether, this study was expected to provide new insights into the design of piezoelectric catalytic nanozyme and expand their application in the catalytic therapy of tumors. Graphical Abstract
