    Abstract Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are built using various organic ligands and metal ions (or clusters). With properties of high porosity, tunable chemical composition, and potential for post-synthetic modification, they have been applied in biomedicine, especially in bio-sensing, bio-imaging, and drug delivery. Since organic ligands and metal centers (ions or clusters) in the structure of MOFs can directly influence the property, function, and performance of MOFs, strict screening of organic ligands and metal centers is necessary. Especially, to improve the application of MOFs in the field of biomedicine, biocompatible organic ligands with low toxicity are desirable. In recent years, biological metal-organic frameworks (bio-MOFs) with ideal biocompatibility and diverse functionality have attracted wide attention. Endogenous biomolecules, including nucleobases, amino acids, peptides, proteins, porphyrins and saccharides, are employed as frameworks for MOF construction. These biological ligands coordinate with diverse metal centers in different ways, leading to the structural diversity of bio-MOFs. In this review, we summarize the organic ligand selectivity in constructing different types of bio-MOFs and their influence in biomedical applications with attractive new functions.

    Abstract Tumor is a kind of abnormal organism generated by the proliferation and differentiation of cells in the body under the action of various initiating and promoting factors, which seriously threatens human life and health. Tumorigenesis is a gradual process that involves multistage reactions and the accumulation of mutations. Gene mutation usually occurs during tumorigenesis, and can be used for tumor diagnosis. Early diagnosis is the most effective way to improve the cure rate and reduce the mortality rate. Among the peripheral blood circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), gene mutation in keeping with tumor cells can be detected, which can potentially replace tumor tissue section for early diagnosis. It has been considered as a liquid biopsy marker with good clinical application prospect. However, the high fragmentation and low concentration of ctDNA in blood result in the difficulty of tumor stage determination. Therefore, high sensitive and specific mutation detection methods have been developed to detect trace mutant ctDNA. At present, the approaches include digital PCR (dPCR), Bead, Emulsion, Amplification and Magnetic (BEAMing), Next Generation Sequencing (NGS), Amplification Refractory Mutation System (ARMS), etc. In this paper, the principle, characteristics, latest progress and application prospects of these methods are reviewed, which will facilitate researchers to choose appropriate ctDNA detection approaches.

    Abstract Drug resistance is a significant factor that hinders the success of cancer chemotherapy. The widely recognized mechanisms of drug resistance include changes to cell proliferation, cycle/apoptosis, drug metabolism/transport, DNA damage and the epithelial to mesenchymal transition. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), short non-coding RNAs with lengths of approximately 19-25 nucleotides, are related to cancer drug resistance, which is regulated by the aforementioned mechanisms. Based on the importance of miRNAs in regulating drug resistance, it is also necessary to take appropriate miRNA detection methods into consideration. To date, a number of advanced miRNA detection methods with high specificity and sensitivity have been developed, such as isothermal amplification-based methods, nanomaterial-based methods, chromatography-based methods, mass spectrometry-based methods and so on. Herein, biogenesis of miRNAs, the relationship between miRNAs and cancer drug resistance, and miRNA detection methods are introduced and discussed to facilitate the development of non-invasive diagnosis and inhibition of cancer drug resistance.

    Abstract Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are chemically reactive molecules that can mediate a wide variety of biological processes. The imbalance of these reactive intermediates in the metabolism will result in the phenomenon known as oxidative stress. Therefore, a great number of approaches have been developed for measuring ROS in biological systems. Due to their reactive and transient nature, the ROS are generally difficult to determine. Fluorescent and luminescent probes for monitoring ROS have shown advantages such as high sensitivity, selectivity, as well as real-time imaging, which can yield visible information about the ROS. The recent progress in preparing ROS probes (including small organic molecules, metal complexes or nanomaterials) for detecting and imaging of ROS production in living cells or whole organisms were summarized in this review. The design strategies and ROS sensing mechanisms of these functional probes were described.

    Abstract Let-7a, a type of low-expressed microRNAs in cancer cells, has been investigated as a promising biomarker and therapeutic target for tumor suppression. Developing simple and sensitive detection methods for let-7a is important for cancer diagnosis and treatment. In this work, the hybridization chain reaction (HCR) was initiated by let-7a via two hairpin primers (H1 and H2). After the HCR, the remaining hairpin H1 was further detected by lateral flow assay (LFA) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. For LFA, biotin-modified H1(bio-H1) and free H2 were used for HCR. With the decrease of let-7a concentration, the color of T line gradually increased. As for electrochemical methods, the H1'-AuNP-modified electrode was used for detection of bio-H1 based on the difference of impedance (Δ

    Abstract Altering the glucose supply and the metabolic pathways would be an intriguing strategy in starvation therapy toward cancers. Nevertheless, starvation therapy alone could be inadequate to eliminate tumor cells completely. Herein, a multifunctional bioreactor was fabricated for synergistic starvation-chemotherapy through embedding glucose oxidase (GOx) and doxorubicin (DOX) in the tumor targeting ligands (RGD) modified red blood cell membrane camouflaged metal-organic framework (MOF) nanoparticle (denoted as RGD-mGZD). Owing to the remarkable biointerfacing property, the designed RGD-mGZD could not only possess enhanced blood retention time inherited from red blood cells, but also preferentially target the tumor site after the modification with RGD peptide. Once the bioreactor reached the desired region, GOx promptly consumed the intratumoral glucose and oxygen to starve cancer cells for robust starvation therapy. More importantly, the aggravated acidic microenvironment at the tumor region was found to induce the decomposition of the MOF structure, thus triggering the release of DOX for reinforced chemotherapy. This bioreactor would further prompt the development of synergistic patterns toward cancer treatment in a spatiotemporally controlled manner.

    Abstract The major scientific challenge of enantiomeric separation is to develop simple, rapid, and sensitive routine analytical methods. Generally, enantio-resolution is still based on "three-point interaction" theory, which indicates that homochiral sites are needed for enantio-selective interaction. However, in recent years, advanced materials with precise homochiral fabrication at the nanoscale have been synthesized, and have shown great potential in development of high-throughput enantio-resolution methods. This tutorial review summarizes fabrication and applications of homochiral materials for enantio-selective recognition and separation. These materials, which include intrinsic and restructured chiral metal surfaces, plasmonic nanostructures, coordination polymers, organic polymer sensors, and molecularly imprinted polymers, have been applied as sensors or chiral stationary phases (CSPs) for efficient enantio-resolution.
