摘要
Osteoarthritis (OA) progresses due to the excessive generation of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS/RNS) and abnormal ATP energy metabolism related to the oxidative phosphorylation pathway in the mitochondria. Highly active single-atom nanozymes (SAzymes) can help regulate the redox balance and have shown their potential in the treatment of inflammatory diseases. In this study, we innovatively utilised ligand-mediated strategies to chelate Pt4+ with modified g-C3N4 by π–π interaction to prepare g–C3N4–loaded Pt single-atom (Pt SA/C3N4) nanozymes that serve as superoxide dismutase (SOD)/catalase (CAT) mimics to scavenge ROS/RNS and regulate mitochondrial ATP production, ultimately delaying the progression of OA. Pt SA/C3N4 exhibited a high loading of Pt single atoms (2.45 wt%), with an excellent photothermal conversion efficiency (54.71%), resulting in tunable catalytic activities under near-infrared light (NIR) irradiation. Interestingly, the Pt–N6 active centres in Pt SA/C3N4 formed electron capture sites for electron holes, in which g-C3N4 regulated the d-band centre of Pt, and the N-rich sites transferred electrons to Pt, leading to the enhanced adsorption of free radicals and thus higher SOD- and CAT-like activities compared with pure g-C3N4 and g–C3N4–loaded Pt nanoparticles (Pt NPs/C3N4). Based on the use of H2O2-induced chondrocytes to simulate ROS-injured cartilage in vitro and an OA joint model in vivo, the results showed that Pt SA/C3N4 could reduce oxidative stress-induced damage, protect mitochondrial function, inhibit inflammation progression, and rebuild the OA microenvironment, thereby delaying the progression of OA. In particular, under NIR light irradiation, Pt SA/C3N4 could help reverse the oxidative stress-induced joint cartilage damage, bringing it closer to the state of the normal cartilage. Mechanistically, Pt SA/C3N4 regulated the expression of mitochondrial respiratory chain complexes, mainly NDUFV2 of complex 1 and MT-ATP6 of ATP synthase, to reduce ROS/RNS and promote ATP production. This study provides novel insights into the design of artificial nanozymes for treating oxidative stress-induced inflammatory diseases.
