Antibacterial Photodynamic Therapy by Zn(II)-Curcumin Complex: Synthesis, Characterization, DFT Calculation, Antibacterial Activity, and Molecular Docking. Chembiochem 2024; 25:e202300652. [PMID: 37921481 DOI: 10.1002/cbic.202300652] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2023] [Revised: 10/28/2023] [Accepted: 11/02/2023] [Indexed: 11/04/2023]
Abstract
The increase in antibacterial drug resistance is threatening global health conditions. Recently, antibacterial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) has emerged as an effective antibacterial treatment with high cure gain. In this work, three Zn(II) complexes viz., [Zn(en)(acac)Cl] (1), [Zn(bpy)(acac)Cl] (2), [Zn(en)(cur)Cl] (3), where en=ethylenediamine (1 and 3), bpy=2,2'-bipyridine (2), acac=acetylacetonate (1 and 2), cur=curcumin monoanionic (3) were developed as aPDT agents. Complexes 1-3 were synthesized and fully characterized using NMR, HRMS, FTIR, UV-Vis. and fluorescence spectroscopy. The HOMO-LUMO energy gap (Eg), and adiabatic splittings (ΔS1-T1 and ΔS0-T1 ) obtained from DFT calculation indicated the photosensivity of the complexes. These complexes have not shown any potent antibacterial activity under dark conditions but the antibacterial activity of these complexes was significantly enhanced upon light exposure (MIC value up to 0.025 μg/mL) due to their light-mediated 1 O2 generation abilities. The molecular docking study suggested that complexes 1-3 interact efficiently with DNA gyrase B (PDB ID: 4uro). Importantly, 1-3 did not show any toxicity toward normal HEK-293 cells. Overall, in this work, we have demonstrated the promising potential of Zn(II) complexes as effective antibacterial agents under the influence of visible light.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has recently emerged as a potential valuable alternative to treat microbial infections. In PDT, singlet oxygen is generated in the presence of photosensitisers and oxygen under light irradiation of a specific wavelength, causing cytotoxic damage to bacteria. This review highlights different generations of photosensitisers and the common characteristics of ideal photosensitisers. It also focuses on the emergence of ruthenium and more specifically on Ru(II) polypyridyl complexes as metal-based photosensitisers used in antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT). Their photochemical and photophysical properties as well as structures are discussed while relating them to their phototoxicity. The use of Ru(II) complexes with recent advancements such as nanoformulations, combinatory therapy and photothermal therapy to improve on previous shortcomings of the complexes are outlined. Future perspectives of these complexes used in two-photon PDT, photoacoustic imaging and sonotherapy are also discussed. This review covers the literature published from 2017 to 2023.

Abstract
Antimicrobial resistance, caused by persistent adaptation and growing resistance of pathogenic bacteria to overprescribed antibiotics, poses one of the most serious and urgent threats to global public health. The limited pipeline of experimental antibiotics in development further exacerbates this looming crisis and new drugs with alternative modes of action are needed to tackle evolving pathogenic adaptation. Transition metal complexes can replenish this diminishing stockpile of drug candidates by providing compounds with unique properties that are not easily accessible using pure organic scaffolds. We spotlight four emerging strategies to harness these unique properties to develop new targeted antibacterial agents.

Abstract
Herein, five novel polypyridyl-based Co(III) complexes of Schiff bases, viz., [Co(dpa)(L1)]Cl (1), [Co(dpa)(L2)]Cl (2), [Co(L3)(L2)]Cl (3), [Co(L3)(L1)]Cl (4), and [Co(L4)(L1)]Cl (5), where dpa (dipicolylamine) = bis(2-pyridylmethyl)amine; H2L1 = (E)-2-((2-hydroxybenzylidene)amino)phenol; H2L2 = (E)-5-(hydroxymethyl)-4-(((2-hydroxyphenyl)imino)methyl)-2-methylpyridin-3-ol; L3 = 4'-phenyl-2,2':6',2''-terpyridine (ph-tpy); and L4 = 4'-ferrocenyl-2,2':6',2''-terpyridine (Fc-tpy), were synthesized and characterized. Complexes 1, 3, and 4 were structurally characterized by single-crystal XRD, indicating an octahedral CoIIIN4O2 coordination core. The absorption bands of these complexes were observed in the visible range with a λmax at ∼430-485 nm. Complex 5 displayed an extra absorption band near 545 nm because of a ferrocene moiety. These absorptions in the visible region reflect the potential of the complexes to act as visible-light antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) agents. All of these complexes showed reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated antibacterial effects against S. aureus (Gram-positive) and E. coli (Gram-negative bacteria) upon low-energy visible light (0.5 J cm-2, 400-700 nm) exposure. Additionally, 1-5 did not show any toxicity toward A549 (Human Lung adenocarcinoma) cells, reflecting their selective bacteria-killing abilities.

A photoactivatable and phenylboronic acid-functionalized nanoassembly for combating multidrug-resistant gram-negative bacteria and their biofilms. BURNS & TRAUMA 2023; 11:tkad041. [PMID: 37849944 PMCID: PMC10578387 DOI: 10.1093/burnst/tkad041] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2023] [Revised: 05/23/2023] [Accepted: 07/19/2023] [Indexed: 10/19/2023]
Abstract
Background Multidrug-resistant (MDR) gram-negative bacteria-related infectious diseases have caused an increase in the public health burden and mortality. Moreover, the formation of biofilms makes these bacteria difficult to control. Therefore, developing novel interventions to combat MDR gram-negative bacteria and their biofilms-related infections are urgently needed. The purpose of this study was to develop a multifunctional nanoassembly (IRNB) based on IR-780 and N, N'-di-sec-butyl-N, N'- dinitroso-1,4-phenylenediamine (BNN6) for synergistic effect on the infected wounds and subcutaneous abscesses caused by gram-negative bacteria. Methods The characterization and bacteria-targeting ability of IRNB were investigated. The bactericidal efficacy of IRNB against gram-negative bacteria and their biofilms was demonstrated by crystal violet staining assay, plate counting method and live/dead staining in vitro. The antibacterial efficiency of IRNB was examined on a subcutaneous abscess and cutaneous infected wound model in vivo. A cell counting kit-8 assay, Calcein/PI cytotoxicity assay, hemolysis assay and intravenous injection assay were performed to detect the biocompatibility of IRNB in vitro and in vivo. Results Herein, we successfully developed a multifunctional nanoassembly IRNB based on IR-780 and BNN6 for synergistic photothermal therapy (PTT), photodynamic therapy (PDT) and nitric oxide (NO) effect triggered by an 808 nm laser. This nanoassembly could accumulate specifically at the infected sites of MDR gram-negative bacteria and their biofilms via the covalent coupling effect. Upon irradiation with an 808 nm laser, IRNB was activated and produced both reactive oxygen species (ROS) and hyperthermia. The local hyperthermia could induce NO generation, which further reacted with ROS to generate ONOO-, leading to the enhancement of bactericidal efficacy. Furthermore, NO and ONOO- could disrupt the cell membrane, which converts bacteria to an extremely susceptible state and further enhances the photothermal effect. In this study, IRNB showed a superior photothermal-photodynamic-chemo (NO) synergistic therapeutic effect on the infected wounds and subcutaneous abscesses caused by gram-negative bacteria. This resulted in effective control of associated infections, relief of inflammation, promotion of re-epithelization and collagen deposition, and regulation of angiogenesis during wound healing. Moreover, IRNB exhibited excellent biocompatibility, both in vitro and in vivo. Conclusions The present research suggests that IRNB can be considered a promising alternative for treating infections caused by MDR gram-negative bacteria and their biofilms.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is a gaseous molecule that has a central role in signaling pathways involved in numerous physiological processes (e.g., vasodilation, neurotransmission, inflammation, apoptosis, and tumor growth). Due to its gaseous form, NO has a short half-life, and its physiology role is concentration dependent, often restricting its function to a target site. Providing NO from an external source is beneficial in promoting cellular functions and treatment of different pathological conditions. Hence, the multifaceted role of NO in physiology and pathology has garnered massive interest in developing strategies to deliver exogenous NO for the treatment of various regenerative and biomedical complexities. NO-releasing platforms or donors capable of delivering NO in a controlled and sustained manner to target tissues or organs have advanced in the past few decades. This review article discusses in detail the generation of NO via the enzymatic functions of NO synthase as well as from NO donors and the multiple biological and pathological processes that NO modulates. The methods for incorporating of NO donors into diverse biomaterials including physical, chemical, or supramolecular techniques are summarized. Then, these NO-releasing platforms are highlighted in terms of advancing treatment strategies for various medical problems.

Abstract
Although new antibiofilm agents have been developed to prevent and eliminate pathogenic biofilms, their widespread clinical use is hindered by poor biocompatibility and bioavailability, unspecific interactions and insufficient local concentrations. The development of innovative drug delivery strategies can facilitate penetration of antimicrobials through biofilms, promote drug dispersal and synergistic bactericidal effects, and provide novel paradigms for clinical application. In this Review, we discuss the potential benefits of such emerging techniques for improving the clinical efficacy of antibiofilm agents, as well as highlighting the existing limitations and future prospects for these therapies in the clinic.

Abstract
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing global problem with more than 1 million deaths due to AMR infection in 2019 alone. New and innovative therapeutics are required to overcome this challenge. Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) is a rapidly growing area of research poised to provide much needed help in the fight against AMR. aPDT works by administering a photosensitizer (PS) that is activated only when irradiated with light, allowing high spatiotemporal control and selectivity. The PS typically generates reactive oxygen species (ROS), which can damage a variety of key biological targets, potentially circumventing existing resistance mechanisms. Metal complexes are well known to display excellent optoelectronic properties, and recent focus has begun to shift towards their application in tackling microbial infections. Herein, we review the last five years of progress in the emerging field of small-molecule metal complex PSs for aPDT.

Abstract
Biofilm formation and antimicrobial resistance pose significant challenges not only in clinical settings (i.e., implant-associated infections, endocarditis, and urinary tract infections) but also in industrial settings and in the environment, where the spreading of antibiotic-resistant bacteria is on the rise. Indeed, developing effective strategies to prevent biofilm formation and treat infections will be one of the major global challenges in the next few years. As traditional pharmacological treatments are becoming inadequate to curb this problem, a constant commitment to the exploration of novel therapeutic strategies is necessary. Light-triggered therapies have emerged as promising alternatives to traditional approaches due to their non-invasive nature, precise spatial and temporal control, and potential multifunctional properties. Here, we provide a comprehensive overview of the different biofilm formation stages and the molecular mechanism of biofilm disruption, with a major focus on the quorum sensing machinery. Moreover, we highlight the principal guidelines for the development of light-responsive materials and photosensitive compounds. The synergistic effects of combining light-triggered therapies with conventional treatments are also discussed. Through elegant molecular and material design solutions, remarkable results have been achieved in the fight against biofilm formation and antibacterial resistance. However, further research and development in this field are essential to optimize therapeutic strategies and translate them into clinical and industrial applications, ultimately addressing the global challenges posed by biofilm and antimicrobial resistance.

Abstract
Currently, undeveloped diagnosis and delayed treatment of bacteria-infected sites in vivo not only expand the risk of tissue infection but are also a major clinical cause of multiple drug-resistant bacterial infections. Herein, an efficient nanoplatform for near-infrared (NIR)-light-controlled release and bacteria-targeted delivery of nitric oxide (NO) combined with photothermal therapy (PTT) is presented. Using maltotriose-decorated mesoporous polydopamine (MPDA-Mal) and BNN6, a smart antibacterial (B@MPDA-Mal) is developed to combine bacterial targeting, gas-controlled release, and PTT. Utilizing bacteria's unique maltodextrin transport system, B@MPDA-Mal can accurately distinguish bacterial infection from sterile inflammation and target the bacteria-infected sites for efficient drug enrichment. Moreover, NIR-light causes MPDA to generate heat, which not only effectively induces BNN6 to produce NO, but also raises the temperature to harm the bacteria further. NO/photothermal combination therapy effectively eliminates biofilm and drug-resistant bacteria. The myositis model of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus infection is established and indicates that B@MPDA-Mal can successfully eradicate inflammation and abscesses in mice. Meanwhile, magnetic resonance imaging technology is used to monitor the treatment procedure and healing outcomes. Given the aforementioned advantages, the smart antibacterial nanoplatform B@MPDA-Mal can be used as a potential therapeutic tool in the biomedical field against drug-resistant bacterial infections.

Abstract
Globally, the increase of pathogenic bacteria with antibiotic-resistant characteristics has become a critical challenge in medical treatment. The misuse of conventional antibiotics to treat an infectious disease often results in increased resistance and a scarcity of effective antimicrobials to be used in the future against the organisms. Here, we discuss the rise of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and the need to combat it through the discovery of new synthetic or naturally occurring antibacterial compounds, as well as insights into the application of various drug delivery approaches delivered via various routes compared to conventional delivery systems. AMR-related infectious diseases are also discussed, as is the efficiency of various delivery systems. Future considerations in developing highly effective antimicrobial delivery devices to address antibiotic resistance are also presented here, especially on the smart delivery system of antibiotics.

Abstract
Photoactive antibacterial therapy is one of the novel therapeutic methods that has great application potential and prospects for curbing bacterial infections. In this work, a photoactivated iridium complex (Ir-Cl) is synthesized for photoactive antibacterial research. Ir-Cl exhibits photoacidolysis, which can generate H+ and be converted into a photolysis product Ir-OH under blue light irradiation. At the meantime, this process is accompanied by 1O2 generation. Notably, Ir-Cl can selectively permeate S. aureus and exhibit excellent photoactive antibacterial activity. Mechanism studies show that Ir-Cl can ablate bacterial membranes and biofilms under light irradiation. Metabolomics analysis proves that Ir-Cl with light exposure mainly disturbs some amino acids' degradation (e.g., valine, leucine, isoleucine, arginine) and pyrimidine metabolism, which indirectly causes the ablation of biofilms and ultimately produces irreversible damage to S. aureus. This work provides guidance for metal complexes in antibacterial application.

Abstract
The effective prevention and treatment of bacterial infections is imperative to wound repair and the improvement of patient outcomes. In recent years, nanomaterials have been extensively applied in infection control and wound healing due to their special physiochemical and biological properties. Incorporating antibacterial nanomaterials into wound dressing has been associated with improved biosafety and enhanced treatment outcomes compared to naked nanomaterials. In this review, we discuss progress in the application of nanomaterial-based wound dressings for advanced management of infected wounds. Focus is given to antibacterial therapy as well as the all-in-one detection and treatment of bacterial infections. Notably, we highlight progress in the use of nanoparticles with intrinsic antibacterial performances, such as metals and metal oxide nanoparticles that are capable of killing bacteria and reducing the drug-resistance of bacteria through multiple antimicrobial mechanisms. In addition, we discuss nanomaterials that have been proven to be ideal drug carriers for the delivery and release of antimicrobials either in passive or in stimuli-responsive manners. Focus is given to nanomaterials with the ability to kill bacteria based on the photo-triggered heat (photothermal therapy) or ROS (photodynamic therapy), due to their unparalleled advantages in infection control. Moreover, we highlight examples of intelligent nanomaterial-based wound dressings that can detect bacterial infections in-situ while providing timely antibacterial therapy for enhanced management of infected wounds. Finally, we highlight challenges associated with the current nanomaterial-based wound dressings and provide further perspectives for future improvement of wound healing.

Abstract
Intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) has been known as a highly prevalent and disabling disease, which is one of the main causes of low back pain and disability. Unfortunately, there is no effective cure to treat this formidable disease, and surgical interventions are typically applied. Herein, we report that the local administration of nitric oxide (NO)-releasing micellar nanoparticles can efficiently treat IVDD associated with Modic changes in a rat model established by infection with Cutibacterium acnes (C. acnes). By covalent incorporation of palladium(II) meso-tetraphenyltetrabenzoporphyrin photocatalyst and coumarin-based NO donors into the core of micellar nanoparticles, we demonstrate that the activation of the UV-absorbing coumarin-based NO donors can be achieved under red light irradiation via photoredox catalysis, although it remains a great challenge to implement photoredox catalysis reactions in biological conditions due to the complex microenvironments. Notably, the local delivery of NO can not only efficiently eradicate C. acnes pathogens but also inhibit the inflammatory response and osteoclast differentiation in the intervertebral disc tissues, exerting antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and antiosteoclastogenesis effects. This work provides a feasible means to efficiently treat IVDD by the local administration of NO signaling molecules without resorting to a surgical approach.

Abstract
The opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) causes infections that are difficult to treat, which is due to the bacterial resistance to antibiotics. We herein identify a gold(I) N-heterocyclic carbene compound as a highly potent antibacterial agent towards P. aeruginosa. The compound significantly attenuates P. aeruginosa virulence and leads to low tendency to develop bacterial resistance. The antibacterial mechanism studies show that the compound abrogates bacterial membrane integrity, exhibiting a high bactericidal activity toward P. aeruginosa. The relatively low cytotoxic compound has excellent therapeutic effects on both the eukaryotic cell co-culture and murine wound infection experiments, suggesting its potential application as a bactericidal agent to combat P. aeruginosa infection.

Abstract
The use of nitric oxide (NO) is emerging as a promising, novel approach for the treatment of antibiotic resistant bacteria and biofilm infections. Depending on the concentration, NO can induce biofilm dispersal, increase bacteria susceptibility to antibiotic treatment, and induce cell damage or cell death via the formation of reactive oxygen or reactive nitrogen species. The use of NO is, however, limited by its reactivity, which can affect NO delivery to its target site and result in off-target effects. To overcome these issues, and enable spatial or temporal control over NO release, various strategies for the design of NO-releasing materials, including the incorporation of photo-activable, charge-switchable, or bacteria-targeting groups, have been developed. Other strategies have focused on increased NO storage and delivery by encapsulation or conjugation of NO donors within a single polymeric framework. This review compiles recent developments in NO drugs and NO-releasing materials designed for applications in antimicrobial or anti-biofilm treatment and discusses limitations and variability in biological responses in response to the use of NO for bacterial eradiation.

Abstract
Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) has become a fundamental tool in modern therapeutics, notably due to the expanding versatility of photosensitizers (PSs) and the numerous possibilities to combine aPDT with other antimicrobial treatments to combat localized infections. After revisiting the basic principles of aPDT, this review first highlights the current state of the art of curative or preventive aPDT applications with relevant clinical trials. In addition, the most recent developments in photochemistry and photophysics as well as advanced carrier systems in the context of aPDT are provided, with a focus on the latest generations of efficient and versatile PSs and the progress towards hybrid-multicomponent systems. In particular, deeper insight into combinatory aPDT approaches is afforded, involving non-radiative or other light-based modalities. Selected aPDT perspectives are outlined, pointing out new strategies to target and treat microorganisms. Finally, the review works out the evolution of the conceptually simple PDT methodology towards a much more sophisticated, integrated, and innovative technology as an important element of potent antimicrobial strategies.

Abstract
The synthetic approaches for the preparation of trans(NO,OH)-cis(NO2,NO2)-[RuNO(L)2(NO2)2OH], where L = ethyl nicotinate (I) and methyl nicotinate (II), are reported. The structures of the complexes are characterized by X-ray diffraction and analyzed by Hirshfeld surface analysis. Both compounds show a nitric oxide release reaction under 445 or 532 nm irradiation of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) solutions, which is studied by combined ultraviolet-visible- (UV-vis), infrared- (IR), and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The charge transfer from the OH-Ru-NO chain and nitrite ligands to the antibonding orbitals of Ru-NO is responsible for the photo-cleavage of the ruthenium-nitrosyl bond. The elimination of NO leads to a side reaction, namely the protonation of the parent hydroxyl compound. The cytotoxicity and photo-induced cytotoxicity investigations of both compounds on the breast adenocarcinoma cell line MCF-7 reveal that (I) and (II) are cytotoxic with IC50 values of 27.5 ± 2.8 μM and 23.3 ± 0.3 μM, respectively. Moreover, (I) shows an increase of the toxicity after light irradiation by 7 times (IC50 = 4.1 ± 0.1), which makes it a prominent target for deeper biological investigations.
