A Dioscorea opposita Thunb polysaccharide (DOP)-modified ZIF8 material was developed in this study, which can be used as a "smart" glucose-responsive carrier to control the slow release of drugs. The 3-aminophenylboronic acid (APBA) functionalized carboxylated long-chain polymer poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) segments, which were first modified on the surface of ZIF8 nanoparticles with a hydrogen bond and then chemically cross-linked with DOP through a borate ester bond, leading to the drugs loaded on ZIF8 being "closed" in PBS but being "open" via taking off the DOP coating in high concentrations of glucose; thus, leakage can be prevented in the drug loaded and a glucose-triggered release can effectively result. Moreover, the materials showed good biocompatibility and the released trans-N-p-coumaroyltyramine (NCT) could work synergistically with the DOP to improve insulin resistance and promote glucose consumption in insulin-resistant HepG2 cells.
