Abstract

A selenium-containing metal–organic framework with remarkable antioxidant capacity and ROS-scavenging activity was constructed by a controlled de novo encapsulation approach of a glycoconjugate mimetic, specifically a sp2-iminoglycolipid bearing a selenoureido fragment (DSeU), within a zeolitic-imidazolate framework exoskeleton. Biocompatible and homogeneous nanosized particles of ∼70 nm (DSeU@ZIF8) were obtained, which could be efficiently internalized in cells, overcoming the poor solubility in biological media and limited bioavailability of glycolipids. The ZIF-particle served as nanocarrier for the intracellular delivery of the selenocompound to cells, promoted by the acidic pH inside endosomes/lysosomes. As demonstrated by in vitro studies, the designed DSeU@ZIF8 nanoparticles displayed a high antioxidant activity at low doses; lower intracellular ROS levels were observed upon the uptake of DSeU@ZIF8 by human endothelial cells. Even more interesting was the finding that these DSeU@ZIF8 particles were able to reverse to a certain level the oxidative stress induced in cells by pre-treatment with an oxidizing agent. This possibility of modulating the oxidative stress in living cells may have important implications in the treatment of diverse pathological complications that are generally accompanied with elevated ROS levels.
