  • capability and were used to decrease the level of proinflammatory cytokines, including TNF-α and IL-6, at the inflammatory sites. As another example, an alendronate-coated nanoceria (CeAL) nanozyme was reported by Zhou et al. for both ROS and RNS scavenging [107]. Other RNS scavenging nanomaterials such as

Nanoceria loaded with edaravone and coated with angiopep-2 and poly(ethylene glycol) on their surface have been used for stroke treatment [118]. This nanocomposite system consisted of
  • three key components: (1) edaravone and nanoceria were responsible for ROS scavenging; (2) poly(ethylene glycol) increased biocompatibility, monodispersity, and extended the half-life in the bloodstream; and (3) angiopep-2 served as targeting ligand, which specifically binds to the low-density

Graphical Abstract
  • of nanoceria (i.e., cerium oxide in the form of nanoparticles) can store or release oxygen, cycling between Ce3+ and Ce4+; therefore, they can cause or relieve oxidative stress within living systems. Nanoceria dissolution occurs in acidic environments. Nanoceria stabilization is a known problem even
  • during its synthesis; in fact, a carboxylic acid, namely citric acid, is used in many synthesis protocols. Citric acid adsorbs onto nanoceria surfaces, limiting particle formation and creating stable dispersions with extended shelf life. To better understand factors influencing the fate of nanoceria, its
  • dissolution and stabilization have been previously studied in vitro using acidic aqueous environments. Nanoceria agglomerated in the presence of some carboxylic acids over 30 weeks, and degraded in others, at pH 4.5 (i.e., the pH value in phagolysosomes). Plants release carboxylic acids, and cerium
