Cardiovascular diseases pose a significant global health challenge, contributing to high mortality rates and impacting overall well-being and quality of life. Nitric oxide (NO) plays a pivotal role as a vasodilator, regulating blood pressure and enhancing blood flow-crucial elements in preventing cardiovascular diseases, making it a prime therapeutic target. Herein, metal-based nanozymes (NZs) designed to induce NO release from both endogenous and exogenous NO-donors are investigated. Successful synthesis of gold, platinum (Pt) and cerium oxide NZs is achieved, with all three NZs demonstrating the ability to catalyze the NO release from various NO sources, namely S-nitrosothiols and diazeniumdiolates. Pt-NZs exhibit the strongest performance among the three NZ types. Further exploration involved investigating encapsulation and coating techniques using poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) nanoparticles as experimental carriers for Pt-NZs. Both strategies showed efficiency in serving as platforms for Pt-NZs, successfully showing the ability to trigger NO release.

Nitric oxide (NO) has an important class of endogenous diatomic molecules that play a key regulatory role in many physiological and biochemical processes. However, the type of nitrosamine NO donor stimulated by light has many advantages compared to the conventional NO donors such as diazeniumdiolates and -nitrosothiols compounds, including easy synthesis, good stability, and controllable release. In addition, NO release can be regulated by light induction with a built-in calibration mechanism fluorescence.

As a gasotransmitter, nitric oxide (NO) regulates physiological pathways and demonstrates therapeutic effects such as vascular relaxation, anti-inflammation, antiplatelet, antithrombosis, antibacterial, and antiviral properties. However, gaseous NO has high reactivity and a short half-life, so NO delivery and storage are critical questions to be solved. One way is to develop stable NO donors and the other way is to enhance the delivery and storage of NO donors from biomaterials.

Chronic wounds, such as pressure ulcers, vascular ulcers and diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs), often stay in a state of pathological inflammation and suffer from persistent infection, excess inflammation, and hypoxia, thus they are difficult to be healed. Nitric oxide (NO) plays a critical role in the regulation of various wound healing processes, including inflammatory response, cell proliferation, collagen formation, antimicrobial action and angiogenesis. The important role of NO in wound healing attracts intensive research focus on NO-based wound healing therapy.

Nitric oxide (NO) is an important pharmaceutical agent of considerable therapeutic interest ascribed to its vasodilative, tumoricidal and antibacterial effects. Rapid development of functional nanomaterials has provided opportunities for us to achieve controllable exogenous delivery of NO. In the current review, a variety of functionalized colloidal nanovehicles that have been developed to date for nitric oxide delivery are reported.
