ABSTRACT

The wide prevalence of oxidative stress-induced diseases has led to a growing demand for antioxidant therapeutics worldwide. Nanozyme antioxidants are drawing enormous attention as practical alternatives for conventional antioxidants. The considerable body of research over the last decade and the promising results achieved signify the potential of nanozyme antioxidants to secure a place in the expanding market of antioxidant therapeutics. Nonetheless, there is no report on clinical trials for their further evaluation. Through analyzing in-depth selected papers which have conducted in vivo studies on nanozyme antioxidants, this review aims to pinpoint and discuss possible reasons impeding development of research toward clinical studies and to offer some practical solutions for future studies to bridge the gap between preclinical and clinical stages.


Lay abstract "We did not experience these kinds of strange illnesses in the past." Everybody might have heard such a familiar sentence from their grandparents and asked themselves, why? The current paper aims to provide readers with one of the answers: "Oxidative stress", which happens when the body fails to neutralize damage caused by unstable molecules called free radicals. In this paper, the authors present the seriousness of oxidative stress-induced clinical conditions. They discuss one of the promising treatments, nanozyme antioxidants, these are mostly based on nano-sized materials with enzyme-like function, in other words, they can speed up chemical reactions. Despite significant results, nanozyme antioxidants have not been investigated in clinical studies. This paper intends to search for the main reasons for this and suggest possible solutions.
