Abstract

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is frequently associated with reactive oxygen species (ROS) and causes high mortality in clinics annually, and nanotechnology-mediated antioxidative therapy is emerging as a novel strategy for AKI treatment. Herein, four kinds of natural antioxidants are able to coordinate with iron (Fe) ions to form ultra-small coordination polymer nanodots (CPNs) with good water dispersibility and strong ROS scavenging ability. In particular, Fe-curcumin CPNs (Fe-Cur CPNs) are applied for cellular ROS scavenging and rhabdomyolysis-induced AKI relief.
