Their induced and cleaved processes for drug release via the mitochondrial and rat sarcoma virus (RAS)-rapidly accelerated fibrosarcoma (RAF)-serine/tyrosine/threonine kinases (MEK)-extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) signalling pathways [40] are highlighted. ...
... Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) are a new class of porous inorganic−organic materials through the composition between organic ligands and metal ions or clusters, which play an important role in water treatment [25], biosensors [26], electrode materials [27], catalysis [28], adsorption [29,30], diagnostics [31], promotion of wound healing [32] and drug delivery [33,34]. With the continuous development of nanomaterial technology, MOFbased antimicrobial materials have become a hot spot for antimicrobial applications [35]. ...
... During the operation of nuclear power plants and after the disposal of spent fuel, a large quantity of radioactive waste gas is generated, including C-14, I-129, I-131, Co-60, Cs-134, Cs-137, Sr-90, Ce-144, Kr-85 and Xe-13, etc., of which the most serious ones are I-129, I-131. [33][34][35][36] Radioactive iodine vapor is one of the toxic substances contaminated in nuclear waste, as radioactive iodine is absorbed into the bloodstream and quickly accumulates in the thyroid gland. Where the radioactivity may cause radiation damage to thyroid cells, leading to cancers, genetic mutations and other health problems, as well as affecting plants and animals in the ecosystem. ...
... For example, a hydrazide-linked MTH-TFPB COF was prepared by mild oxidation of a hydrazone-linked MTH-TFPB COF. [14] Interestingly, owing to the advantageous interaction between hydrazide moieties and I 2 molecules, hydrazide-MTH-TFPB COF showed higher I 2 uptake (3.05 g g À 1 ), which was~1.3 times than hydrazone-MTH-TFPB COF. Another hydrazone-linked H-COF was converted into an oxadiazole-linked ODA-COF via postoxidative cyclization. ...
... Moreover, it can lead to urate crystal formation that causes gout (a type of inflammatory arthritis), leading to joint damage, loss of motion and an acute inflammatory response (Koka et al., 2000). Hyperuricemia is the causative risk factor for gout (Choi et al., 2005) and increases the risks for chronic kidney disease (CKD) (Johnson et al., 2018), cardiovascular disease (Feig et al., 2008;Gaffo et al., 2009), hypertension (Feig and Johnson, 2003), insulin resistance (Facchini et al., 1991;Yoo et al., 2005), and diabetic kidney disease (Kim et al., 2012;Qu et al., 2022). Currently, it is recognized that hyperuricemia alone is not sufficient to cause gout and that other factors also play roles in urate crystal formation. ...
... The effects of MC on human health have not yet been explored. In zebrafish, the median lethal concentration was placed at 3.17 mg/L (He et al., 2022). MC was cytotoxic at 6 mg/kg bw/d in rodents (EFSA, 2009). ...
... Polymers are commonly used as matrices, and the CS is generally coated onto polymer surfaces using coating methods, such as using porous glycidyl methacrylate-co-ethylene dimethacrylate monolith (Noel Echevarria et al. 2018) and glycidyl methacrylate-divinylbenzene copolymer particles (Li et al. 2020) as matrices. In addition, metal oxides such as zirconia (Kumar and Park 2011) as well as covalent organic frameworks (Yan et al. 2022) have been used as matrices to synthesize chiral separation materials, also using coating methods. ...
