Toprakcioglu Z, Wiita EG, Jayaram AK, Gregory RC, Knowles TPJ. Selenium Silk Nanostructured Films with Antifungal and Antibacterial Activity. ACS APPLIED MATERIALS & INTERFACES 2023; 15:10452-10463. [PMID: 36802477 PMCID: PMC9982822 DOI: 10.1021/acsami.2c21013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2022] [Accepted: 02/08/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
The rapid emergence of drug-resistant bacteria and fungi poses a threat for healthcare worldwide. The development of novel effective small molecule therapeutic strategies in this space has remained challenging. Therefore, one orthogonal approach is to explore biomaterials with physical modes of action that have the potential to generate antimicrobial activity and, in some cases, even prevent antimicrobial resistance. Here, to this effect, we describe an approach for forming silk-based films that contain embedded selenium nanoparticles. We show that these materials exhibit both antibacterial and antifungal properties while crucially also remaining highly biocompatible and noncytotoxic toward mammalian cells. By incorporating the nanoparticles into silk films, the protein scaffold acts in a 2-fold manner; it protects the mammalian cells from the cytotoxic effects of the bare nanoparticles, while also providing a template for bacterial and fungal eradication. A range of hybrid inorganic/organic films were produced and an optimum concentration was found, which allowed for both high bacterial and fungal death while also exhibiting low mammalian cell cytotoxicity. Such films can thus pave the way for next-generation antimicrobial materials for applications such as wound healing and as agents against topical infections, with the added benefit that bacteria and fungi are unlikely to develop antimicrobial resistance to these hybrid materials.

Abstract
Some existing therapies such as antimicrobial regimens, drug combinations, among others, are employed for the treatment of infections that are a threat to the healthcare industry owing to low drug efficacy, increasing dosage regimes, mutation in bacteria and poor pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics properties of drugs. Overuse of antibiotics is fostering the emergence and spread of inherent microorganisms that confer temporary and permanent resistance. Nanocarriers accompanying the ABC transporter efflux mechanism are considered 'magic bullets' (i.e., effective antibacterial agents) and can traverse the multidrug-resistant obstacle owing to their multifunctional capabilities (e.g., nanostructure, variability in in vivo functions, etc.) by interfering with normal cell activity. This review focuses on novel applications of the ABC transporter pump by nanocarriers to overcome the resistance caused by the various organs of the body. Teaser: Nanocarriers, the ABC transporter and overcoming multidrug resistance.

Abstract
Fungi and bacteria afflict humans with innumerous pathogen-related infections and ailments. Most of the commonly employed microbicidal agents target commensal and pathogenic microorganisms without discrimination. To distinguish and fight the pathogenic species out of the microflora, novel antimicrobials have been developed that selectively target specific bacteria and fungi. The cell wall features and antimicrobial mechanisms that these microorganisms involved in are highlighted in the present review. This is followed by reviewing the design of antimicrobials that selectively combat a specific community of microbes including Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains as well as fungi. Finally, recent advances in the antimicrobial immunomodulation strategy that enables treating microorganism infections with high specificity are reviewed. These basic tenets will enable the avid reader to design novel approaches and compounds for antibacterial and antifungal applications.

Abstract
The rapid emergence of superbugs which are resistant to existing antibiotics is becoming a huge global threat to public health, which demands the discovery of next-generation antibacterial agents for combating superbugs. Herein, we report the design of a two-dimensional (2D) reduced graphene oxide (r-GO) and one-dimensional (1D) WO3 nanowire-based photothermal-photocatalytic heterostructure for combating multiantibiotic-resistant Salmonella DT104, carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae Escherichia coli, and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus superbugs. In the presence of near-infrared (NIR) light, due to the generation of electrons and holes, the WO3-based heterostructure generates reactive oxygen species by photocatalytic reaction from water and oxygen, which kills superbugs. To enhance the photocatalytic superbug killing efficiency, r-GO has been used for suppressing the recombination of the photoinduced electron-hole pairs. Reported data show that NIR light-driven synergistic photocatalytic-photothermal processes can be used for 100% degradation of methylene blue using a heterostructure-based catalyst, and the photodegradation rate for the heterostructure is much better than the literature data for different types of WO3/GO-based nanocomposites. Experimentally, time-dependent antibacterial efficiency data reveals that the heterostructure can destroy 100% superbugs within 30 min of light exposure via a synergistic photothermal and photocatalytic mechanism, whereas the WO3 nanowire can kill around 35% superbugs only via photocatalytic action only and r-GO can kill 25% superbugs via photothermal action even after 30 min of exposure to light. Systematic time-dependent microscopy and spectroscopy studies reveal that the excellent antisuperbug activities for heterostructures are due to membrane damage, ATP, and DNA/RNA breakage. For possible real-life applications, sun light-based superbug inactivation shows 100% inactivation possible within 250 min of light exposure using 12 mg/mL heterostructures. The reported sun light-driven killing of superbugs provides a simple and versatile platform to combat drug-resistant superbugs.

Abstract
The emergence and global spread of bacterial resistance to conventionally used antibiotics have highlighted the urgent need for new antimicrobial agents that might replace antibiotics. Currently, nanomaterials hold considerable promise as antimicrobial agents in anti-inflammatory therapy. Due to their distinctive functional physicochemical characteristics and exceptional biocompatibility, carbon dots (CDs)-based composites have attracted a lot of attention in the context of these antimicrobial nanomaterials. Here, a thorough assessment of current developments in the field of antimicrobial CDs-based composites is provided, starting with a brief explanation of the general synthesis procedures, categorization, and physicochemical characteristics of CDs-based composites. The many processes driving the antibacterial action of these composites are then thoroughly described, including physical destruction, oxidative stress, and the incorporation of antimicrobial agents. Finally, the obstacles that CDs-based composites now suffer in combating infectious diseases are outlined and investigated, along with the potential applications of antimicrobial CDs-based composites.

Abstract
Eradication of infectious biofilms is becoming increasingly difficult due to the growing number of antibiotic-resistant strains. This necessitates development of nonantibiotic-based, antimicrobial approaches. To this end, we designed a heterocatalytic metal-organic framework composed of zirconium 1,4-dicarboxybenzene (UiO-66) with immobilized Pt nanoparticles (Pt-NP/UiO-66). Pt-NP/UiO-66 enhanced singlet-oxygen generation compared with Pt nanoparticles or UiO-66, particularly in an acidic environment. Singlet-oxygen generation degraded phosphodiester bonds present in eDNA gluing biofilms together and therewith dispersed biofilms. Remaining biofilms possessed a more open structure. Concurrently, Pt-NP/UiO-66 stimulated macrophages to adapt a more M1-like, "fighting" phenotype, moving faster toward their target bacteria and showing increased bacterial killing. As a combined effect of biofilm dispersal and macrophage polarization, a subcutaneous Staphylococcus aureus biofilm in mice was more readily eradicated by Pt-NP/UiO-66 than by Pt nanoparticles or UiO-66. Therewith, heterocatalytic Pt-NP/UiO-66 metal-organic frameworks constitute a nonantibiotic-based strategy to weaken protective matrices and disperse infectious biofilms, while strengthening macrophages in bacterial killing.

Abstract
Amphiphilic Janus dendrimers are arrangements containing both hydrophilic and hydrophobic units, capable of forming ordered aggregates by intermolecular noncovalent interactions between the dendrimer units. Compared to conventional dendrimers, these molecular self-assemblies possess particular and effective attributes i.e., the presence of different terminal groups, essential to design new elaborated materials. The present review will focus on the pharmaceutical and biomedical application of amphiphilic Janus dendrimers. Important information for the development of novel optimized pharmaceutical formulations, such as structural classification, synthetic pathways, properties and applications, will offer the complete characterization of this type of Janus dendrimers. This work will constitute an up-to-date background for dendrimer specialists involved in designing amphiphilic Janus dendrimer-based nanomaterials for future innovations in this promising field.

Abstract
Bacterial infection has become one of the leading causes of death worldwide, particularly in low-income countries. Despite the fact that antibiotics have provided successful management in bacterial infections, the long-term overconsumption and abuse of antibiotics has contributed to the emergence of multidrug resistant bacteria. To address this challenge, nanomaterials with intrinsic antibacterial properties or that serve as drug carriers have been substantially developed as an alternative to fight against bacterial infection. Systematically and deeply understanding the antibacterial mechanisms of nanomaterials is extremely important for designing new therapeutics. Recently, nanomaterials-mediated targeted bacteria depletion in either a passive or active manner is one of the most promising approaches for antibacterial treatment by increasing local concentration around bacterial cells to enhance inhibitory activity and reduce side effects. Passive targeting approach is widely explored by searching nanomaterial-based alternatives to antibiotics, while active targeting strategy relies on biomimetic or biomolecular surface feature that can selectively recognize targeted bacteria. In this review article, we summarize the recent developments in the field of targeted antibacterial therapy based on nanomaterials, which will promote more innovative thinking focusing on the treatment of multidrug-resistant bacteria.

Abstract
Aging population has been boosting the need for orthopedic implants. However, biofilm has been a major obstacle for orthopedic implants due to its insensitivity to antibiotics and tendency to drive antimicrobial resistance. Herein, an antibacterial polypeptide coating with excellent in vivo adhesive capacity was prepared to prevent implants from forming biofilms and inducing acquired antibiotic resistance. A peptide-based copolymer, poly[phenylalanine10-stat-lysine12]-block-3,4-dihydroxy-l-phenylalanine [Poly(Phe10-stat-Lys12)-DOPA] was modularly designed, where poly(Phe10-stat-Lys12) is antibacterial polypeptide with high antibacterial activity, and DOPA provides strong adhesion in both wet and dry microenvironments. Meanwhile, compared to traditional "graft-onto" methods, this antibacterial coating can be facilely achieved by immersing Titanium substrates into antibacterial polypeptide solution for 5 min at room temperature. The poly(Phe10-stat-Lys12)-DOPA polymer showed good antibacterial activity with minimum inhibitory concentrations against S. aureus and E. coli of 32 and 400 μg/mL, respectively. Compared to obvious antimicrobial resistance of S. aureus after continuous treatment with vancomycin, this antibacterial coating doesn't drive antimicrobial resistance upon long-term utilization. Transcriptome sequencing and qPCR tests further confirmed that the antibacterial coating was able to inhibit the expression of multiple peptide resistance factor (mprF) and lipoteichoic acid modification D-alanylation genes (dltB and dltC) that can increase the net positive charge of bacterial cell wall to induce the resistance to cationic antimicrobial peptides. In vivo experiments confirmed that this poly(Phe10-stat-Lys12)-DOPA coating can both effectively prevent biofilm formation through surface contact sterilization and avoid local and systemic infections. Overall, we proposed a facile method for preparing antibacterial orthopedic implants with longer indwelling time and without inducing antimicrobial resistance by coating a polypeptide-based polymer on the implants.

Abstract
The wide spread of antibiotic resistance has been alarming in recent years and poses a serious global hazard to public health as it leads to millions of deaths all over the world. The wide spread of resistance and sharing resistance genes between different types of bacteria led to emergence of multidrug resistant (MDR) microorganisms. This problem is exacerbated when microorganisms create biofilms, which can boost bacterial resistance by up to 1000-fold and increase the emergence of MDR infections. The absence of novel and potent antimicrobial compounds is linked to the rise of multidrug resistance. This has sparked international efforts to develop new and improved antimicrobial agents as well as innovative and efficient techniques for antibiotic administration and targeting. There is an evolution in nanotechnology in recent years in treatment and prevention of the biofilm formation and MDR infection. The development of nanomaterial-based therapeutics, which could overcome current pathways linked to acquired drug resistance, is a hopeful strategy for treating difficult-to-treat bacterial infections. Additionally, nanoparticles' distinct size and physical characteristics enable them to target biofilms and treat resistant pathogens. This review highlights the current advances in nanotechnology to combat MDR and biofilm infection. In addition, it provides insight on development and mechanisms of antibiotic resistance, spread of MDR and XDR infection, and development of nanoparticles and mechanisms of their antibacterial activity. Moreover, this review considers the difference between free antibiotics and nanoantibiotics, and the synergistic effect of nanoantibiotics to combat planktonic bacteria, intracellular bacteria and biofilm. Finally, we will discuss the strength and limitations of the application of nanotechnology against bacterial infection and future perspectives.

Engineering zinc oxide hybrid selenium nanoparticles for synergetic anti-tuberculosis treatment by combining Mycobacterium tuberculosis killings and host cell immunological inhibition. Front Cell Infect Microbiol 2023; 12:1074533.

Abstract
Introduction As a deadly disease induced by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), tuberculosis remains one of the top killers among infectious diseases. The low intracellular Mtb killing efficiency of current antibiotics introduced the long duration anti-TB therapy in clinic with strong side effects and increased drug-resistant mutants. Therefore, the exploration of novel anti-TB agents with potent anti-TB efficiency becomes one of the most urgent issues for TB therapies. Methods Here, we firstly introduced a novel method for the preparation of zinc oxide-selenium nanoparticles (ZnO-Se NPs) by the hybridization of zinc oxide and selenium to combine the anti-TB activities of zinc oxide nanoparticles and selenium nanoparticles. We characterized the ZnO-Se NPs by dynamic laser light scattering and transmission electron microscopy, and then tested the inhibition effects of ZnO-Se NPs on extracellular Mtb by colony-forming units (CFU) counting, bacterial ATP analysis, bacterial membrane potential analysis and scanning electron microscopy imaging. We also analyzed the effects of ZnO-Se NPs on the ROS production, mitochondrial membrane potential, apoptosis, autophagy, polarization and PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway of Mtb infected THP-1 macrophages. At last, we also tested the effects of ZnO-Se NPs on intracellular Mtb in THP-1 cells by colony-forming units (CFU) counting. Results The obtained spherical core-shell ZnO-Se NPs with average diameters of 90 nm showed strong killing effects against extracellular Mtb, including BCG and the virulent H37Rv, by disrupting the ATP production, increasing the intracellular ROS level and destroying the membrane structures. More importantly, ZnO-Se NPs could also inhibit intracellular Mtb growth by promoting M1 polarization to increase the production of antiseptic nitric oxide and also promote apoptosis and autophagy of Mtb infected macrophages by increasing the intracellular ROS, disrupting mitochondria membrane potential and inhibiting PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway. Discussion These ZnO-Se NPs with synergetic anti-TB efficiency by combining the Mtb killing effects and host cell immunological inhibition effects were expected to serve as novel anti-TB agents for the development of more effective anti-TB strategy.

Abstract
Antibiotic resistance has become a global threat to health due to abuse of antibiotics. Lots of existing antibiotics have lost their effect on drug resistant bacteria. Moreover, the discovery of novel antibiotics becomes more and more difficult. It is necessary to develop new strategies to fight against antibiotic resistance. Nano-drug delivery systems endow old antibiotics with new vitality to defeat the antibiotic resistant barrier by protecting antibiotics against hydrolysis, increasing uptake and circumventing efflux pump. Among them, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) are one of the most extensively investigated as carrier of antibiotics due to large drug loading capability, tunable physicochemical characteristics, and biocompatibility. MSNs can improve the delivery of antibiotics to bacteria greatly by reducing size, modifying surface, and regulating shapes. Furthermore, MSNs hybridized metal ions or metal nanoparticles exert stronger antibacterial effect by controlling the release of metal ions or increasing active oxygen species. In addition, metal capped MSNs are also able to load antibiotics to exert synergistic antibacterial effect. This paper firstly reviewed the current application of various nanomaterials as antibacterial agents, and then focused on the MSNs including the introduction of MSNs and various approaches for improving antibacterial effect of MSNs.

Abstract
The emergence of resistance to pathogenic bacteria has resulted from the misuse of antibiotics used in wound treatment. Therefore, nanomaterial-based agents can be used to overcome these limitations. In this study, polycaprolactone (PCL)/gelatin/graphene oxide electrospun nanofibers (PGO) are functionalized via plasma treatment with the monomeric groups diallylamine (PGO-M1), acrylic acid (PGO-M2), and tert-butyl acrylate (PGO-M3) to enhance the action against bacteria cells. The surface functionalization influences the morphology, surface wettability, mechanical properties, and thermal stability of PGO nanofibers. PGO-M1 and PGO-M2 exhibit good antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, whereas PGO-M3 tends to reduce their antibacterial properties compared to PGO nanofibers. The highest proportion of dead bacteria cells is found on the surface of hydrophilic PGO-M1, whereas live cells are colonized on the surface of hydrophobic PGO-M3. Likewise, PGO-M1 shows a good interaction with L929, which is confirmed by the high levels of adhesion and proliferation with respect to the control. All the results confirm that surface functionalization can be strategically used as a tool to engineer PGO nanofibers with controlled antibacterial properties for the fabrication of highly versatile devices suitable for different applications (e.g., health, environmental pollution).

Abstract
Antimicrobial resistance is a major and growing global problem and new approaches to combat infections caused by antibiotic resistant bacterial strains are needed. In recent years, increasing attention has been paid to nanomedicine, which has great potential in the development of controlled systems for delivering drugs to specific sites and targeting specific cells, such as pathogenic microbes. There is continued interest in metallic nanoparticles and nanosystems based on metallic nanoparticles containing antimicrobial agents attached to their surface (core shell nanosystems), which offer unique properties, such as the ability to overcome microbial resistance, enhancing antimicrobial activity against both planktonic and biofilm embedded microorganisms, reducing cell toxicity and the possibility of reducing the dosage of antimicrobials. The current review presents the synergistic interactions within metallic nanoparticles by functionalizing their surface with appropriate agents, defining the core structure of metallic nanoparticles and their use in combination therapy to fight infections. Various approaches to modulate the biocompatibility of metallic nanoparticles to control their toxicity in future medical applications are also discussed, as well as their ability to induce resistance and their effects on the host microbiome.

Abstract
Orthopedic implants provide an avascular surface for microbial attachment and biofilm formation, impeding the entry of immune cells and the diffusion of antibiotics. The above is an important cause of dental and orthopedic implant-associated infection (IAI). For the prevention and treatment of IAI, the drawbacks of antibiotic resistance and surgical treatment are increasingly apparent. Due to their outstanding biological properties such as biocompatibility, immunomodulatory effects, and antibacterial properties, graphene-based nanomaterials (GBNs) have been applied to bone tissue engineering to deal with IAI, and in particular have great potential application in drug/gene carriers, multi-functional platforms, and coating forms. Here we review the latest research progress and achievements in GBNs for the prevention and treatment of IAI, mainly including their biomedical applications for antibacterial and immunomodulation effects, and for inducing osteogenesis. Furthermore, the biosafety of graphene family materials in bone tissue regeneration and the feasibility of clinical application are critically analyzed and discussed.

Abstract
Transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) exists mainly in two polymorphs, namely, 1T (metallic) and 2H (semiconducting). To tailor the characteristics and practical utility of TMDs for different applications, functionalization is essential. In our earlier studies, we have shown that functionalized 1T and 2H MoS2 exhibit exceptionally high antibacterial activity. The functionalization and related biological applications of other 1T (chemically exfoliated) TMDs were reported, but regarding other 2H TMDs, the functionalization and antibacterial activity are not explored yet. Hence, here we prepared functionalized 2H TMDs such as WS2, WSe2, and MoSe2 other than MoS2 by using a positively charged thiolate surfactant ligand. Further, functionalized 2H TMDs were utilized for antibacterial activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria for a comparative antibacterial analysis. Interestingly, we found disparity in activity among the functionalized 2H TMDs, that is, MoS2 shows higher activity than WS2 followed by MoSe2 and WSe2. The intracellular reactive oxygen species measurement was found to be in the order MoS2 > WS2 > MoSe2 > WSe2, which is solely responsible for variation in the activity of functionalized TMDs. These results indicate that the easy functionalization of all types TMDs by using thiol ligand and importance of core material should be considered while designing functionalized material for specific applications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND S. aureus is one of the causative agents of bovine mastitis. The treatment using conventional antimicrobials has been hampered due to the development of antimicrobial resistance and the ability of the bacteria to form biofilms and localize inside the host cells. OBJECTIVES Here, the efficacy of graphene oxide (GO), a carbon-based nanomaterial, was tested against the biofilms and intracellular S. aureus invitro. Following that, the mechanism for the intracellular antimicrobial activities and GO toxicities was elucidated. METHODS GO antibiofilm properties were evaluated based on the disruption of biofilm structure, and the intracellular antimicrobial activities were determined by the survival of S. aureus in infected bovine mammary cells following GO exposure. The mechanism for GO intracellular antimicrobial activities was investigated using endocytosis inhibitors. GO toxicity towards the host cells was assessed using a resazurin assay. RESULTS At 100 ug/mL, GO reduced between 30 and 70% of S. aureus biofilm mass, suggesting GO's ability to disrupt the biofilm structure. At 200 ug/mL, GO killed almost 80% of intracellular S. aureus, and the antimicrobial activities were inhibited when cells were pre-treated with cytochalasin D, suggesting GO intracellular antimicrobial activities were dependent on the actin-polymerization of the cell membrane. At < 250 ug/mL, GO enhanced the viability of the Mac-T cell, and cells were only affected at higher dosages. CONCLUSION The in vitro efficacy of GO against S. aureus in vitro suggested the compound could be further tested in Vivo to zrecognize its potential as one of the components of bovine mastitis therapy.

Abstract
Absent angiogenesis and bacterial infection are two major challenges that simultaneously delay the repair of injured tissues and organs. However, most current therapeutic systems deliver therapeutic cues in a separate and inaccurate manner which stimulates angiogenesis or inhibits infection leading to limited repair and side effects. Advanced therapeutic systems capable of providing accurate angiogenic stimulation and anti-infection signals in response to the changing microenvironment are urgently needed. Herein, a nano-reactor (ZFVO) involving zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF-67)-deposited hollow vanadium oxide (VO2 ) is developed to intelligently execute pro-angiogenesis and/or disinfection via the responsive release of cobalt ions and hydroxyl radicals to the injury and infection sites, respectively. ZFVO nano-reactor demonstrates a novel strategy for constructing drug-free nano-platforms with a hierarchical structure which has potential for the accurate treatment of trauma and orthopedic diseases.

Abstract
Currently, nanomaterials with exceptional antibacterial activity have become an emerging domain in research. The optimization of nanomaterials against infection causing agents is the next step in dealing with the present-day problem of antibiotics. In this research work, Ag2O, CoFe2O4, and Ag2O/CoFe2O4/rGO are prepared by chemical methods. Ag2O was prepared by co-precipitation method, while solvothermal technique was utilized for the synthesis of CoFe2O4. The ternary nanocomposite was synthesized by a simple in situ reduction using a two-step approach. The structural and morphological properties were studied by UV-Vis spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction spectroscopy (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS), and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). From the X-ray diffraction analysis, the crystallite size is found to be 14 nm, 5 nm, and 6 nm for Ag2O, CoFe2O4, and Ag2O/CoFe2O4/rGO respectively. The synthesized nanomaterials were investigated for antibacterial activities against gram-positive strain Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and gram-negative strain Escherichia coli (E. coli) using Agar well diffusion method. Ag2O and CoFe2O4 showed zones of inhibition (ZOI) of 13 mm and 11 mm against gram positive bacteria while 12 mm against gram negative bacteria respectively, while ternary nanocomposite showed 14 mm and 13 mm of ZOI. The antibacterial activity of nanomaterials showed a gradual increment with an increase in the concentration of the materials. Ag2O, CoFe2O4, and Ag2O/CoFe2O4/rGO showed minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values of 4.5, 6.5, and 4.5 μg/mL for S. aureus and 6.5, 7.2, and 4.8 μg/mL for E. coli respectively. Minimum bactericidal concentrations were found to be same as the MIC values. Additionally, a time-kill curve analysis was performed and for ternary nanocomposite; the killing response was most effective as the complete killing was achieved at 3 h of incubation at 3-MIC (9.75 μg/mL). These results demonstrate that all the nanomaterials, as a kind of antibacterial material, have a great potential for a wide range of biomedical applications.

Abstract
Co3O4 NPs in N-doped porous carbon (Co3O4 NPs@N-PC) materials were prepared by one-pot pyrolysis of a ZIF-67 powder under N2 atmosphere and followed by oxidation under air atmosphere (200 °C) toward promotion catalytic activity and activation of peroxymonosulfate (PMS) to degradation sulfamethoxazole (SMZ). 2-methylimidazole was used as a nitrogen source and a competitive ligand for the synthesis of Co3O4 NPs@N-PC, which in addition to affecting nucleation and growth of the crystal, promotes the production of active Co-N sites. Co3O4 NPs@N-PC nano-architecture has high specific surface areas (250 m2 g-1) and is a non-toxic, effective and stable PMS activator. The effect of operating parameters including SMZ concentration, catalyst dosage, temperature and pH in the presence of Co3O4 NPs@N-PC was investigated. The Co3O4 NPs@N-PC composite showed superior performance in activating PMS over a wide range of pH (2-10) and different temperatures so that complete degradation of SMZ (50 μM, 100 mL) was achieved within 15 min. The role of Co2+/Co3+ redox system in the mechanism before and after PMS activation was determined using XPS analysis. Surface-generated radicals led to the degradation of SMZ, in which the SMZ degradation rate attained 0.21 min-1 with the mineralization of 36.8%. The feasible degradation mechanism of SMZ was studied in the presence of different scavengers and it was revealed that the degradation reaction proceeds from the radical/non-radical pathway and in this process most of the SO4- and OH radicals are dominant. The recoverability and reuse of Co3O4 NPs@N-PC were evaluated to confirm its stability and potential for SMZ degradation and it was observed that the catalyst maintains its catalytic power for at least 5 cycles.

Abstract
The rapid evolution of antibiotic resistance and the complicated bacterial infection microenvironments are serious obstacles to traditional antibiotic therapy. Developing novel antibacterial agents or strategy to prevent the occurrence of antibiotic resistance and enhance antibacterial efficiency is of the utmost importance. Cell membrane-coated nanoparticles (CM-NPs) combine the characteristics of the naturally occurring membranes with those of the synthetic core materials. CM-NPs have shown considerable promise in neutralizing toxins, evading clearance by the immune system, targeting specific bacteria, delivering antibiotics, achieving responsive antibiotic released to the microenvironments, and eradicating biofilms. Additionally, CM-NPs can be utilized in conjunction with photodynamic, sonodynamic, and photothermal therapies. In this review, the process for preparing CM-NPs is briefly described. We focus on the functions and the recent advances in applications of several types of CM-NPs in bacterial infection, including CM-NPs derived from red blood cells, white blood cells, platelet, bacteria. CM-NPs derived from other cells, such as dendritic cells, genetically engineered cells, gastric epithelial cells and plant-derived extracellular vesicles are introduced as well. Finally, we place a novel perspective on CM-NPs' applications in bacterial infection, and list the challenges encountered in this field from the preparation and application standpoint. We believe that advances in this technology will reduce threats posed by bacteria resistance and save lives from infectious diseases in the future.

Abstract
As the development of new antibiotics lags far behind the emergence of drug-resistant bacteria, alternative strategies to resolve this dilemma are urgently required. Antibody-drug conjugate is a promising therapeutic platform to delivering cytotoxic payloads precisely to target cells for efficient disease treatment. Antibody-antimicrobial conjugates (AACs) have recently attracted considerable interest from researchers as they can target bacteria in the target sites and improve the effectiveness of drugs (i.e., reduced drug dosage and adverse effects), abating the upsurge of antimicrobial resistance. In this review, the selection and progress of three essential blocks that compose the AACs: antibodies, antimicrobial payloads, and linkers are discussed. The commonly used conjugation strategies and the latest applications of AACs in recent years are also summarized. The challenges and opportunities of this booming technology are also discussed at the end of this review.

Abstract
Nanozyme-based chemodynamic therapy (CDT) has shown tremendous potential in the treatment of bacterial infections. However, the CDT antibacterial efficacy is severely limited by the catalytic activity of nanozymes or the infection microenvironments such as insufficient hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and overexpressed glutathione (GSH). Herein, a versatile hybrid nanozyme (MoS2/CuO2) is rationally constructed by simply decorating ultrasmall CuO2 nanodots onto lamellar MoS2 platelets of hydrangea-like MoS2 nanocarrier via a covalent Cu-S bond. The MoS2/CuO2 nanozyme exhibits the peroxidase-mimic activity for catalytically converting H2O2 produced by acid-triggered decomposition of the decorated CuO2 into hydroxyl radical (•OH). Meanwhile, the MoS2/CuO2 can consume GSH overexpressed in the infection sites via redox reaction mediated by polyvalent transition metal ions (Cu2+ and Mo6+) for enhanced CDT. More importantly, MoS2 support can promote the conversion of Cu2+ to Cu+ by a co-catalytic reaction based on the Mo4+/Mo6+ redox couples, and provide photonic hyperthermia (PTT) to augment the peroxidase-mimic activity. The developed MoS2/CuO2 nanozymes possesses a desirable catalytic property, as well as a remarkably improved antibacterial efficiency both in vitro and in vivo. Taken together, this study proposes a synergetic multiple enhancement strategy to successfully construct the versatile hybrid nanozymes for intensive in vivo PTT/CDT dual-mode anti-infective therapy. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) has shown great potentialities in the treatment of bacterial infections, while its therapeutic efficiency is severely limited by the infection microenvironments such as insufficient hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and overexpressed glutathione (GSH). Here, we rationally construct a hybrid nanozyme (MoS2/CuO2) with peroxidase-like activity that can enhance CDT by regulating local microenvironments, that is, simultaneously self-supplying H2O2 and consuming GSH. Importantly, MoS2 support can promote the conversion of Cu2+ to Cu+ by the Mo4+/Mo6+ redox couples, and provide photonic hyperthermia (PTT) to augment the peroxidase-mimic activity. The developed MoS2/CuO2 shows desirable PTT/CDT dual-mode antibacterial efficacy both in vitro and in vivo. This study proposes a versatile hybrid nanozyme with multiple enhancement effects for intensive in vivo anti-infective therapy.

Abstract
The design of adsorbents for rapid, selective extraction of ultra-trace amounts of gold from complex liquids is desirable from both an environmental and economical point of view. However, the development of such materials remains challenging. Herein, we report the fabrication of two vinylene-linked two-dimensional silver(I)-organic frameworks prepared via Knoevenagel condensation. This material enables selective sensing of gold with a low limit of detection of 60 ppb, as well as selective uptake of ultra-trace gold from complex aqueous mixtures including distilled water with 15 competing metal ions, leaching solution of electronic waste (e-waste), wastewater, and seawater. The present adsorbent delivers a gold adsorption capacity of 954 mg g-1, excellent selectivity and reusability, and can rapidly and selectively extract ultra-trace gold from seawater down to ~20 ppb (94% removal in 10 minutes). In addition, the purity of recovered gold from e-waste reaches 23.8 Karat (99.17% pure).

Abstract
Bacterial pneumonia is one of the leading causes of death worldwide and exerts a significant burden on health-care resources. Antibiotics have long been used as first-line drugs for the treatment of bacterial pneumonia. However, antibiotic therapy and traditional antibiotic delivery are associated with important challenges, including drug resistance, low bioavailability, and adverse side effects; the existence of physiological barriers further hampers treatment. Fortunately, these limitations may be overcome by the application of nanotechnology, which can facilitate drug delivery while improving drug stability and bioavailability. This review summarizes the challenges facing the treatment of bacterial pneumonia and also highlights the types of nanoparticles that can be used for antibiotic delivery. This review places a special focus on the state-of-the-art in nanomaterial-based approaches to the delivery of antibiotics for the treatment of pneumonia.

Simultaneously enhancing the photocatalytic and photothermal effect of NH2-MIL-125-GO-Pt ternary heterojunction for rapid therapy of bacteria-infected wounds. Bioact Mater 2022; 18:421-432. [PMID: 35415303 PMCID: PMC8968451 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2022.03.035] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/27/2022] [Revised: 03/20/2022] [Accepted: 03/20/2022] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Infections caused by bacteria threaten human health, so how to effectively kill bacteria is an urgent problem. We therefore synthesized a NH2-MIL-125-GO-Pt ternary composite heterojunction with graphene oxide (GO) and platinum (Pt) nanoparticles co-doped with metal-organic framework (NH2-MIL-125) for use in photocatalytic and photothermal synergistic disinfection under white light irradiation. Due to the good conductivity of GO and the Schottky junction between Pt and MOF, the doping of GO and Pt will effectively separate and transfer the photogenerated electron-hole pairs generated by NH2-MIL-125, thereby effectively improving the photocatalytic efficiency of NH2-MIL-125. Meanwhile, NH2-MIL-125-GO-Pt has good photothermal effect under white light irradiation. Therefore, the NH2-MIL-125-GO-Pt composite can be used for effective sterilization. The antibacterial efficiency of NH2-MIL-125-GO-Pt against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli were as high as 99.94% and 99.12%, respectively, within 20 min of white light irradiation. In vivo experiments showed that NH2-MIL-125-GO-Pt could effectively kill bacteria and promote wound healing. This work brings new insights into the use of NH2-MIL-125-based photocatalyst materials for rapid disinfection of environments with pathogenic microorganisms. The NH2-MIL-125-GO-Pt ternary heterojunction is constructed by a simple hydrothermal method and in-situ growth method. Two electron-hole pair separation paths are constructed in NH2-MIL-125-GO-Pt. The unique porous structure and characteristics of NH2-MIL-125-GO-Pt can effectively adsorb oxygen and generate ROS. NH2-MIL-125-GO-Pt can treat wounds infected by bacteria with excellent biosafety.

Gold nanoclusters-loaded hydrogel formed by dimeric hydrogen bonds crosslinking: A novel strategy for multidrug-resistant bacteria-infected wound healing. Mater Today Bio 2022; 16:100426.

Abstract
Restoring skin integrity after wound infection remains a tougher health challenge due to the uncontrolled antibiotic-resistant pathogens caused by antibiotic abuse. Herein, an injectable hydrogel with dual antibacterial and anti-inflammatory activities composed of gold nanoclusters (GNCs) and carbomer (CBM) is developed for wound dressing to overcome multidrug-resistant infection. Firstly, both experimental investigations and molecular dynamics simulation validate the protonation state of 6-mercaptohexanoic acid (MHA) ligands play an important role in its antibacterial action of GNCs. The self-organizing GNCs-CBM composite hydrogel is then spontaneously cross-linked by the dimeric hydrogen bonds (H-bonds) between the MHA ligands and the acrylic acid groups of CBM. Benefitting from the dimeric H-bonds, the hydrogel becomes thickening enough as an ideal wound dressing and the GNCs exist in the hydrogel with a high protonation level that contributes to the enhanced bactericidal function. In all, by combining bactericidal and immunomodulatory actions, the GNCs-CBM hydrogel demonstrated excellent synergy in accelerating wound healing in animal infection models. Hence, the dimeric H-bonds strengthening strategy makes the GNCs-CBM hydrogel hold great potential as a safe and effective dressing for treating infected wounds.

Abstract
Antibiotic resistance has become a major public health concern around the world. This is exacerbated by the non-discovery of novel drugs, the development of resistance mechanisms in most of the clinical isolates of bacteria, as well as recurring infections, hindering disease treatment efficacy. In vitro data has shown that antibiotic combinations can be effective when microorganisms are resistant to individual drugs. Recently, advances in the direction of combination therapy for the treatment of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacterial infections have embraced antibiotic combinations and the use of nanoparticles conjugated with antibiotics. Nanoparticles (NPs) can penetrate the cellular membrane of disease-causing organisms and obstruct essential molecular pathways, showing unique antibacterial mechanisms. Combined with the optimal drugs, NPs have established synergy and may assist in regulating the general threat of emergent bacterial resistance. This review comprises a general overview of antibiotic combinations strategies for the treatment of microbial infections. The potential of antibiotic combinations with NPs as new entrants in the antimicrobial therapy domain is discussed.

Abstract
Biomacromolecules such as enzymes and proteins with bactericidal activity are promising for antibacterial applications in a mild, biocompatible, and environmentally friendly manner. However, low bactericidal efficiency has hindered its applications. Nanobiohybrids, constructed from biomacromolecules and functional nanomaterials, could enhance the function of biomacromolecules. However, the incompatibility between biological components and nanomaterials is still the major challenge of designing nanobiohybrids. Here, we rationally design lysozyme-Ag-polymer nanocomposites, which display high stability and antibacterial activity in a cooperative manner. The sufficient presence of Ag-N coordination between Ag and the polymer/protein contributed to the high stability of the nanocomposites. Compared with lysozyme and commercial silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) alone, the enzyme-Ag-polymer nanocomposites showed dramatically enhanced antibacterial activity. We propose a tightly encapsulated invasion (TEI) mechanism for a greatly improved antibacterial activity. The bacteria closely interacted with nanocomposites, and cell walls were hydrolyzed by lysozyme especially, facilitating the penetration of silver into the bacteria, and then reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated by silver to kill bacteria. In addition, the specific TEI mechanism resulted in high biocompatibility toward mammalian cells.

Abstract
Fungal keratitis is one of the most common blindness-causing diseases, but clinical antifungal treatment remains a challenge. The fungal cell wall and biofilm matrix which severely confine the drug preparation are the critical obstructive factors to therapeutic effects. Herein, we report ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) modified AgCu2O nanoparticles (AgCuE NPs) to disrupt the cell wall and then eradicate C. albicans through the internal cascade synergistic effects of ion-released chemotherapy, chemodynamic therapy, photodynamic therapy, and mild photothermal therapy. AgCuE NPs exhibited excellent antifungal activity both in preventing biofilm formation and in destroying mature biofilms. Furthermore, AgCuE NP based gel formulations were topically applied to kill fungi, reduce inflammation, and promote wound healing, using optical coherence tomography and photoacoustic imaging to monitor nanogel retention and therapeutic effects on the infected murine cornea model. The AgCuE NP gel showed good biosafety and no obvious ophthalmic and systemic side effects. This study suggests that the AgCuE NP gel is an effective and safe antifungal strategy for fungal keratitis with a favorable prognosis and potential for clinical translation.

Abstract
The antibacterial properties of nanomaterials (NMs) can be exploited in a range of consumer products (e.g., wound dressings, food packaging, textiles, medicines). There is also interest in the exploitation of NMs as treatments for infectious diseases to help combat antibiotic resistance. Whilst the antibacterial activity of NMs has been assessed in vitro and in vivo in numerous studies, the methodology used is very varied. Indeed, while numerous approaches are available to assess the antibacterial effect of NMs in vitro, they have not yet been systematically assessed for their suitability and sensitivity for testing NMs. It is therefore timely to consider what assays should be prioritised to screen the antibacterial properties of NMs. The majority of existing in vitro studies have focused on investigating the antibacterial effects exhibited by silver (Ag) NMs and have employed a limited range of assays. We therefore compared the antibacterial effects of copper oxide (CuO) NMs to Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, and Bacillus subtilis at various concentrations (12.5-200 µg/mL) using a battery of tests (well and disc diffusion, plate counts-time-kill method, optical density measurement-OD, Alamar Blue and live/dead viability assays, and quantitative polymerase chain reaction). CuO NMs were most toxic to B. subtilis and E. coli, while P. aeruginosa was the least sensitive strain. All assays employed detected the antibacterial activity of CuO NMs; however, they varied in their sensitivity, time, cost, technical difficulty and requirement for specialized equipment. In the future, we suggest that a combination of approaches is used to provide a robust assessment of the antibacterial activity of NMs. In particular, we recommend that the time-kill and OD assays are prioritised due to their greater sensitivity. We also suggest that standard operating protocols are developed so that the antibacterial activity of NMs can be assessed using a harmonised approach.

Abstract
Antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB) are a serious threat to the health of people and the ecological environment. With this problem becoming more and more serious, more countries made research on the ARB, and the research number has been sharply increased particularly over the past decade. Therefore, it is quite necessary to globally retrace relevant researches on the ARB published from 2010 to 2020. This will help researchers to understand the current research situation, research trends and research hotspots in this field. This paper uses bibliometrics to examine publications in the field of ARB from 2010 to 2020 that were retrieved from the Web of Science (WOS). Our study performed a statistical analysis of the countries, institutions, journals, authors, research areas, author keywords, Essential Science Indicators (ESI) highly cited papers, and ESI hotspots papers to provide an overview of the ARB field as well as research trends, research hotspots, and future research directions in the field. The results showed that the number of related studies is increasing year by year; the USA is most published in the field of ARB; China is the most active in this field in the recent years; the Chinese Acad Sci published the most articles; Sci. Total Environ. published the greatest number of articles; CM Manaia has the most contributions; Environmental Sciences and Ecology is the most popular research area; and "antibiotic resistance," "antibiotics," and "antibiotic resistance genes" were the most frequently occurring author keywords. A citation analysis showed that aquatic environment-related antibiotic resistance is a key research area in this field, while antimicrobial nanomaterial-related research is a recent popular topic.

Abstract
In order to solve the problems of rubropunctatin insoluble in water and its low bioavailability, and explore the synthesis method of green silver nanoparticles, rubropunctatin was used as reducing agent and blocking agent, rubropunctatin-functionalized silver nanoparticles (R-AgNPs) were successfully synthesized. The distinctive absorption peak at 410 nm confirmed the formation of R-AgNPs. Zeta potential measurement showed excellent stability of R-AgNPs with negative values of -29.81 ± 0.37 mV. The results of TEM and XRD showed that the prepared R-AgNPs were round, well dispersed and crystallized with average particle size of 13.54 ± 0.42 nm. FT-IR and XPS studies show that functional groups are involved in R-AgNPs synthesis. The antibacterial activity of R-AgNPs was compared with commercial silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) by microdilution method. The results showed that R-AgNPs (MIC 7.81 μg/mL) has stronger antibacterial activity than commercial AgNPs. The bacteria morphology was observed by the live and dead (SYTO 9/PI) staining assay and SEM showed that the antibacterial effect of R-AgNPs was caused by the destruction of the bacterial cell membrane. Cytotoxicity of rubropunctatin-functionalized silver nanoparticles and commercial silver nanoparticles on mouse fibroblast 3T3 cells was assessed by CCK-8 assay. The results showed that the toxicity of rubropunctatin-functionalized silver nanoparticles to 3T3 cells was lower than that of commercial silver nanoparticles. In summary, synthesis of silver nanoparticles using rubropunctatin is a green synthesis method, and R-AgNPs is a potential antibacterial agent.

Abstract
The water oxidation of bimetallic Al/Ag nanoparticles has been shown to yield nanoscale structures whose morphology, phase composition and textural characteristics are determined by the synthesis conditions. Flower-like nanoscale structures with silver nanoparticles, with an average size of 17 nm, are formed in water at 60 °C. Under hydrothermal conditions at temperatures of 200 °C and a pressure of 16 MPa, boehmite nanoplatelets with silver nanoparticles, with an average size of 22 nm, are formed. The oxidation of Al/Ag nanoparticles using humid air at 60 °C and 80% relative humidity results in the formation of rod-shaped bayerite nanoparticles and Ag nanoparticles with an average size of 19 nm. The thermal treatment of nanoscale structures obtained at a temperature of 500 °C has been shown to lead to a phase transition into γ-Al2O3, while maintaining the original morphology, and to a decrease in the average size of the silver nanoparticles to 12 nm and their migration to the surface of nanoscale structures. The migration of silver to the nanoparticle surface influences the formation of a double electric layer of particles, and leads to a shift in the pH of the zero-charge point by approximately one, with the nanostructures acquiring pronounced antimicrobial properties.

Abstract
Bacterial biofilms are a major healthcare concern resulting in refractory conditions such as chronic wounds, implant infections and failure, and multidrug-resistant infections. Aggressive and invasive strategies are employed to cure biofilm infections but are prone to long and expensive treatments, adverse side-effects, and low patient compliance. Recent strategies such as ultrasound-based therapies and antimicrobial nanomaterials have shown some promise in the effective eradication of biofilms. However, maximizing therapeutic effect while minimizing healthy tissue damage is a key challenge that needs to be addressed. Here a combination treatment involving ultrasound and antimicrobial polymeric nanoparticles (PNPs) that synergistically eradicate bacterial biofilms is reported. Ultrasound treatment rapidly disrupts biofilms and increases penetration of antimicrobial PNPs thereby enhancing their antimicrobial activity. This results in superior biofilm toxicity, while allowing for a two- to sixfold reduction in both the concentration of PNPs as well as the duration of ultrasound. Furthermore, that this reduction minimizes cytotoxicity toward fibroblast cells, while resulting in a 100- to 1000-fold reduction in bacterial concentration, is demonstrated.

Abstract
Infections caused by multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria are becoming a serious threat to public health worldwide. With an ever-reducing pipeline of last-resort drugs further complicating the current dire situation arising due to antibiotic resistance, there has never been a greater urgency to attempt to discover potential new antibiotics. The use of nanotechnology, encompassing a broad range of organic and inorganic nanomaterials, offers promising solutions. Organic nanomaterials, including lipid-, polymer-, and carbon-based nanomaterials, have inherent antibacterial activity or can act as nanocarriers in delivering antibacterial agents. Nanocarriers, owing to the protection and enhanced bioavailability of the encapsulated drugs, have the ability to enable an increased concentration of a drug to be delivered to an infected site and reduce the associated toxicity elsewhere. On the other hand, inorganic metal-based nanomaterials exhibit multivalent antibacterial mechanisms that combat MDR bacteria effectively and reduce the occurrence of bacterial resistance. These nanomaterials have great potential for the prevention and treatment of MDR bacterial infection. Recent advances in the field of nanotechnology are enabling researchers to utilize nanomaterial building blocks in intriguing ways to create multi-functional nanocomposite materials. These nanocomposite materials, formed by lipid-, polymer-, carbon-, and metal-based nanomaterial building blocks, have opened a new avenue for researchers due to the unprecedented physiochemical properties and enhanced antibacterial activities being observed when compared to their mono-constituent parts. This review covers the latest advances of nanotechnologies used in the design and development of nano- and nanocomposite materials to fight MDR bacteria with different purposes. Our aim is to discuss and summarize these recently established nanomaterials and the respective nanocomposites, their current application, and challenges for use in applications treating MDR bacteria. In addition, we discuss the prospects for antimicrobial nanomaterials and look forward to further develop these materials, emphasizing their potential for clinical translation.

Abstract
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are the vital constituents that stimulate the
innate immune defense system against pathogens and perform several biological
activities, which provide the first defensive line against infectious diseases. Owing to
their unique structure, they can be utilized as a therapeutic strategy for infectious
diseases in fishes. Several kinds of AMPs are reported in fishes with broad-spectrum
antimicrobial properties. Besides, the bacterial cells cannot develop resistance strains
against these cationic compounds with low molecular weight. Thus, AMPs may be
considered an alternative to antibiotics to prevent or control infectious diseases in
aquaculture. It is essential to provide sufficient knowledge about the mode of action of
AMPs against fish pathogenic agents and their future applications.

The Antimicrobial Effect of Gold Quantum Dots and Femtosecond Laser Irradiation on the Growth Kinetics of Common Infectious Eye Pathogens: An In Vitro Study.

Abstract
We studied the antimicrobial effect of gold quantum dots (AuQDs), femtosecond laser irradiation, and the combined effect of laser irradiation and AuQD treatment against common infectious eye pathogens. The INSPIRE HF100 laser system (Spectra Physics) provided a femtosecond laser, which was pumped by a mode-locked femtosecond Ti: sapphire laser MAI TAI HP (Spectra Physics), while a Quanta-Ray nanosecond Nd: YAG laser (Spectra-Physics) was used to precisely synthesize 7.8, 8.7, and 11.6 nm spherical AuQDs. Then, the in vitro growth kinetics and growth rate analysis of E. coli, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecalis, Listeria monocytogenes, and Candida albicans (treated with the AuQDs, femtosecond laser irradiation, or combined laser and AuQDs treatment) was measured. The biocompatibility of the AuQDs with the retinal epithelial cell lines (ARPE-19) and their toxicity to the cells was assayed. The results showed that (1) in vitro irradiation using a 159 J/cm2 energy density obtained from the 400 nm femtosecond laser suppressed the growth of each of the five pathogens. (2) Similarly, treatment with the AuQDs was antimicrobial against the four bacteria. The AuQDs with an average size of 7.8 nm were more highly antimicrobial and biocompatible and were less cytotoxic than the larger AuQD sizes. (3) The combined femtosecond laser irradiation and AuQD treatment was more highly antimicrobial than each treatment alone. (4) The AuQD treatment did not impair the rate of wound closure in vitro. These findings suggest that combined femtosecond laser irradiation and AuQD treatment is significantly antimicrobial against Candida albicans, Gram-positive L. monocytogenes, S. aureus, and E. faecalis, as well as Gram-negative E. coli. The nontoxicity and biocompatibility of the AuQD particles tested suggest that this form of treatment may be clinically viable.

Abstract
Pathogenic bacterial infection and poor native tissue integration are two major issues encountered by biomaterial implants and devices, which are extremely hard to overcome within a single surface, especially for those without involvement of antibiotics. Herein, a self-adaptive surface that can transform from non-antibiotic antibacterial actions to promotion of cell proliferation is developed by in situ assembly of bacteriostatic 3,3'-diaminodipropylamine (DADP)-doped zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) on bio-inspired nanopillars. Initially, the nanocomposite surface shows impressive antibacterial effects, even under severe bacterial infection, due to the combination of mechano-bactericidal activity from a nanopillar structure and bacteriostatic activity contributed by pH-responsive release of DADP. After the complete degradation of the ZIF-8 layer, the refurbished nanopillars not only can still physically rupture bacterial membrane but also facilitate mammalian cell proliferation, due to the obvious difference in cell size. More strikingly, the nanocomposite surface totally avoids the usage of antibiotics, eradicating the potential risk of antimicrobial resistance, and the surface exhibited excellent histocompatibility and lower inflammatory response properties as revealed by in vivo tests. This type of self-adaptive surface may provide a promising alternative for addressing the intractable implant-associated requirements, where antibiotic-free antibacterial activity and native tissue integration are both highly needed.
