Abstract
Aims Delayed postoperative inoculation of orthopaedic implants with persistent wound drainage or bacterial seeding of a haematoma can result in periprosthetic joint infection (PJI). The aim of this in vivo study was to compare the efficacy of vancomycin powder with vancomycin-eluting calcium sulphate beads in preventing PJI due to delayed inoculation. Methods A mouse model of PJI of the knee was used. Mice were randomized into groups with intervention at the time of surgery (postoperative day (POD) 0): a sterile control (SC; n = 6); infected control (IC; n = 15); systemic vancomycin (SV; n = 9); vancomycin powder (VP; n = 21); and vancomycin bead (VB; n = 19) groups. Delayed inoculation was introduced during an arthrotomy on POD 7 with 1 × 105 colony-forming units (CFUs) of a bioluminescent strain of Staphylococcus aureus. The bacterial burden was monitored using bioluminescence in vivo. All mice were killed on POD 21. Implants and soft-tissue were harvested and sonicated for analysis of the CFUs. Results The mean in vivo bioluminescence in the VB group was significantly lower on POD 8 and POD 10 compared with the other groups. There was a significant 1.3-log10 (95%) and 1.5-log10 (97%) reduction in mean soft-tissue CFUs in the VB group compared with the VP and IC groups (3.6 × 103 vs 7.0 × 104; p = 0.022; 3.6 × 103 vs 1.0 × 105; p = 0.007, respectively) at POD 21. There was a significant 1.6-log10 (98%) reduction in mean implant CFUs in the VB group compared with the IC group (1.3 × 100 vs 4.7 × 101, respectively; p = 0.038). Combined soft-tissue and implant infection was prevented in 10 of 19 mice (53%) in the VB group as opposed to 5 of 21 (24%) in the VP group, 3 of 15 (20%) in the IC group, and 0% in the SV group. Conclusion In our in vivo mouse model, antibiotic-releasing calcium sulphate beads appeared to outperform vancomycin powder alone in lowering the bacterial burden and preventing soft-tissue and implant infections.

Abstract
Fracture-related infections are a challenging complication in orthopedic trauma that often necessitates multiple surgeries. Early administration of systemic antibiotics and surgical intervention remains the gold standard of care, but despite these measures, treatment failures can be as high as 35%. For these reasons, the introduction of local antibiotics at the site of at-risk fractures has increased over the past decade. This review looks at the various measures being used clinically including local antibiotic powder, polymethylmethacrylate, biodegradable substances, antibiotic-coated implants, and novel methods such as hydrogels and nanoparticles that have the potential for use in the future.

Abstract
Implant-associated infections (IAIs) represent a major health burden due to the complex structural features of biofilms and their inherent tolerance to antimicrobial agents and the immune system. Thus, the viable options to eradicate biofilms embedded on medical implants are surgical operations and long-term and repeated antibiotic courses. Recent years have witnessed a growing interest in the development of robust and reliable strategies for prevention and treatment of IAIs. In particular, it seems promising to develop materials with anti-biofouling and antibacterial properties for combating IAIs on implants. In this contribution, we exclusively focus on recent advances in the development of modified and functionalized implant surfaces for inhibiting bacterial attachment and eventually biofilm formation on orthopedic implants. Further, we highlight recent progress in the development of antibacterial coatings (including self-assembled nanocoatings) for preventing biofilm formation on orthopedic implants. Among the recently introduced approaches for development of efficient and durable antibacterial coatings, we focus on the use of safe and biocompatible materials with excellent antibacterial activities for local delivery of combinatorial antimicrobial agents for preventing and treating IAIs and overcoming antimicrobial resistance.

Abstract
A surgically implantable device is an inevitable treatment option for millions of people worldwide suffering from diseases arising from orthopedic injuries. A global paradigm shift is currently underway to tailor and personalize replacement or reconstructive joints. Additive manufacturing (AM) has provided dynamic outflow to the customized fabrication of orthopedic implants by enabling need-based design and surface modification possibilities. Surgical grade 316L Stainless Steel (316L SS) is promising with its cost, strength, composition, and corrosion resistance to fabricate 3D implants. This work investigates the possibilities of application of the laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) technique to fabricate 3D-printed (3DP) implants, which are functionalized with a multilayered antimicrobial coating to treat potential complications arising due to postsurgical infections (PSIs). Postsurgical implant-associated infection is a primary reason for implantation failure and is complicated mainly by bacterial colonization and biofilm formation at the installation site. PLGA (poly-d,l-lactide-co-glycolide), a biodegradable polymer, was utilized to impart multiple layers of coating using the airbrush spray technique on 3DP implant surfaces loaded with gentamicin (GEN). Various PLGA-based polymers were tested to optimize the ideal lactic acid: glycolic acid ratio and molecular weight suited for our investigation. 3D-Printed PLGA-GEN substrates sustained the release of gentamicin from the surface for approximately 6 weeks. The 3DP surface modification with PLGA-GEN facilitated cell adhesion and proliferation compared to control surfaces. The cell viability studies showed that the implants were safe for application. The 3DP PLGA-GEN substrates showed good concentration-dependent antibacterial efficacy against the common PSI pathogen Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and Staphylococcus epidermidis (S. epidermidis). The GEN-loaded substrates demonstrated antimicrobial longevity and showed significant biofilm growth inhibition compared to control. The substrates offered great versatility regarding the in vitro release rates, antimicrobial properties, and biocompatibility studies. These results radiate great potential in future human and veterinary clinical applications pertinent to complications arising from PSIs, focusing on personalized sustained antibiotic delivery.

Abstract
Bone implant-associated infection is one of the most challenging problems encountered by orthopedic surgeons. There is considerable interest in the development of drug-loaded antibacterial coatings for the surfaces of metal implants. However, it is difficult to achieve the stable local release of an effective drug dose for many antibacterial coatings. In the present study, analyses of the thickness and water contact angle of multiple layers confirmed the successful assembly of multilamellar membrane structures. Measurement of the zone of bacterial inhibition indicated gradual degradation of the (montmorillonite [MMT]/hyaluronic acid [HA])10 multilamellar film structure with concentration-dependent degradation during incubation with hyaluronidase solution and Staphylococcus aureus. In vivo results resembled the in vitro results. Overall, the findings confirm that the (MMT/HA-rifampicin)10 multilamellar film structure exhibits good antibacterial properties and excellent biocompatibility. Further studies of the clinical potential of the antibacterial coating prepared in this experiment are warranted.

Abstract
Aim: Bioactive glass (Bioglass) is a substance causing strong mechanical bondings at the interface of soft tissue-biomaterial-bone through a series of biochemical and biophysical reactions, commonly used to restore developing bone defects due to surgery. On the other hand, phosphatidylcholine is a lipid substance increasing antibiotics’ efficiency as a carrier. Since we met no study using the combination of Bioglass and phosphatidylcholine for bone defects, we aimed to investigate whether the bioglass-phosphatidylcholine combination would be more effective.
Material and Method: Thirty Sprague-Dawley 3-6-months-old female rats with a mean weight of 400 gr were divided into five subgroups (six in each group). A 5-mm critical defect was created in the middle of the condyle throughout the burr’s diameter bilaterally. The phosphatidylcholine-bioglass graft was placed at one side, and Bioglass contralaterally to fill the defect. The rats were sacrificed at 24 hours, 72 hours, first, third, and sixth weeks postoperatively. The right and left rat femurs were removed and examined histopathologically.
Results: There was no statistically significant difference between the groups regarding filling volume, newly formed and necrotic bone, fibrous tissue, residual graft material, integration, foreign body reaction, and defect organization, indicating that Bioglass served efficiently for filling the defect. In addition, phosphatidylcholine neither augmented nor impaired the healing process.
Conclusion: These results indicated that Bioglass served efficiently for filling the defect, and the presence of phosphatidylcholine neither augmented nor impaired the healing process. However, further experimental studies are required until its clinical application is implemented.

Abstract
Biomaterial-associated infection is difficult to detect and brings consequences that can lead to morbidity and mortality. Bacteria can adhere to the implant surface, grow, and form biofilms. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) can target and kill bacterial cells using a plethora of mechanisms of action such as rupturing the cell membrane by creating pores via depolarization with their cationic and amphipathic nature. AMPs can thus be coated onto metal implants to prevent microbial cell adhesion and growth. The aim of this systematic review was to determine the potential clinical applications of AMP-modified implants through in vivo induced infection models. Following a database search recently up to 22 January 2022 using PubMed, Web of Science and Cochrane databases, and abstract/title screening using the PRISMA framework, 24 studies remained, of which 18 were used in the random effects meta-analysis of standardized mean differences (SMD) to get effect sizes. Quality of studies was assessed using SYRCLE's risk of bias tool. The data from these 18 studies showed that AMPs carry antibacterial effects, and the meta-analysis confirmed the favorited antibacterial efficacy of AMP-coated groups over controls (SMD -1.74, 95%CI [-2.26, -1.26], p < 0.00001). Subgroup analysis showed that the differences in effect size are random, and high heterogeneity values suggested the same. HHC36 and vancomycin were the most common AMPs for surface modification and Staphylococcus aureus, the most tested bacterium in vivo. Covalent binding with polymer brush coating and physical layer-by-layer incorporation of AMPs were recognized as key methods of incorporation to achieve desired densities. The use of fusion peptides seemed admirable to incorporate additional benefits such as osteointegration and wound healing and possibly targeting more microbe strains. Further investigation into the incorporation methods, AMP activity against different bacterial strains, and the number of AMPs used for metal implant surface modification is needed to progress toward potential clinical application.

Abstract
Prosthetic joint infection (PJI) is the most serious complication following total joint arthroplasty, this being because it is associated with, among other things, high morbidity and low quality of life, is difficult to prevent, and is very challenging to treat/manage. The many shortcomings of antibiotic-loaded poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) bone cement (ALBC) as an agent for preventing and treating/ managing PJI are well-known. One is that microorganisms responsible for most PJI cases, such as methicillin-resistant S. aureus, have developed or are developing resistance to gentamicin sulfate, which is the antibiotic in the vast majority of approved ALBC brands. This has led to many research efforts to develop cements that do not contain gentamicin (or, for that matter, any antibiotic) but demonstrate excellent antimicrobial efficacy. There is a sizeable body of literature on these so-called “antibiotic-free antimicrobial” PMMA bone cements (AFAMBCs). The present work is a comprehensive and critical review of this body. In addition to summaries of key trends in results of characterization studies of AFAMBCs, the attractive features and shortcomings of the literature are highlighted. Shortcomings provide motivation for future work, with some ideas being formulation of a new generation of AFAMBCs by, example, adding a nanostructured material and/or an extract from a natural product to the powder and/or liquid of the basis cement, respectively.

Abstract
The prevention of surgical site infections is directly related to the minimization of surgical invasiveness, and is in line with the concept of minimally invasive spine therapy (MIST). In recent years, the incidence of postoperative infections has been increasing due to the increased use of spinal implant surgery in patients at high risk of infection, including the elderly and easily infected hosts, the limitations of poor bone marrow transfer of antibiotics, and the potential for contamination of surgical gloves and instruments. Thus, the development of antimicrobial implants in orthopedic and spinal surgery is becoming more and more popular, and implants with proven antimicrobial, safety, and osteoconductive properties (i.e., silver, iodine, antibiotics) in vitro, in vivo, and in clinical trials have become available for clinical use. We have developed silver-containing hydroxyapatite (Ag-HA)-coated implants to prevent post-operative infection, and increase bone fusion capacity, and have successfully commercialized antibacterial implants for hip prostheses and spinal interbody cages. This narrative review overviews the present status of available surface coating technologies and materials; describes how the antimicrobial, safety, and biocompatibility (osteoconductivity) of Ag-HA-coated implants have been demonstrated for commercialization; and reviews the clinical use of antimicrobial implants in orthopedic and spinal surgery, including Ag-HA-coated implants that we have developed.

Abstract
The rapid development of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria and biofilm-related infections (BRIs) has urgently called for new strategies to combat severe orthopaedic device-related infections (ODRIs). Antimicrobial coating has emerged as a promising strategy in halting the incidence of ODRIs and treating ODRIs in long term. With the advancement of material science and biotechnology, numerous antimicrobial coatings have been reported in literature, showing superior antimicrobial and osteogenic functions. This review has specifically discussed the currently developed antimicrobial coatings in the perspective of drug release from the coating system, focusing on their realization of controlled and on demand antimicrobial agents release, as well as multi-functionality. Acknowledging the multidisciplinary nature of antimicrobial coating, the conceptual design, the deposition method and the therapeutic effect of the antimicrobial coatings have been described in detail and discussed critically. Particularly, the challenges and opportunities on the way toward the clinical translation of antimicrobial coatings have been highlighted.

Abstract
Objective To investigate the physicochemical properties of pure titanium surface grafted with chlorhexidine (CHX) by phenolamine coating, and to evaluate its antibacterial activity and osteoblast-compatibility in vitro. Methods Control group was obtained by alkali and thermal treatment, and then immersed in the mixture of epigallocatechin-3-gallate/hexamethylene diamine (coating group). Phenolamine coating was deposited on the surface, and then it was immersed in CHX solution to obtain the grafted surface of CHX (grafting group). The surface morphology was observed by scanning electron microscope, the surface element composition was analyzed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and the surface hydrophilicity was measured by water contact angle test. Live/dead bacterial staining, nephelometery, and inhibition zone method were executed to evaluate the antibacterial property. Cytotoxicity was evaluated by MTT assay and cell fluorescence staining. Bacteria-MC3T3-E1 cells co-culture was conducted to evaluate the cell viability on the samples under the circumstance with bacteria. Results Scanning electron microscope observation results showed that deposits of coating group and grafting group increased successively and gradually covered the porous structure. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy results showed the peak of N1s enhanced and the peak of Cl2p appeared in grafting group. Water contact angle test results showed that the hydrophilic angle of three groups increased in turn, and there was significant difference between groups ( P<0.05). Live/dead bacteria staining results showed that the grafting group had the least amount of bacteria adhered to the surface and the proportion of dead bacteria was high. The grafting group had a transparent inhibition zone around it and the absorbance ( A) value did not increase, showing significant difference when compared with control group and coating group ( P<0.05). MTT assay and cell fluorescence staining results showed that the number of adherent cells on the surface of the grafting group was the least, but the adherent cells had good proliferation activity. Bacteria-cell co-culture results showed that there was no bacteria on the surface of grafting group but live cells adhered well. Conclusion CHX-grafted phenolamine coating has the ability to inhibit bacterial adhesion and proliferation, and effectively protect cell adhesion and proliferation in a bacterial environment.

Addressing the Needs of the Rapidly Aging Society through the Development of Multifunctional Bioactive Coatings for Orthopedic Applications. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23052786. [PMID: 35269928 PMCID: PMC8911303 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23052786] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2022] [Revised: 02/27/2022] [Accepted: 02/28/2022] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
The unprecedented aging of the world's population will boost the need for orthopedic implants and expose their current limitations to a greater extent due to the medical complexity of elderly patients and longer indwelling times of the implanted materials. Biocompatible metals with multifunctional bioactive coatings promise to provide the means for the controlled and tailorable release of different medications for patient-specific treatment while prolonging the material's lifespan and thus improving the surgical outcome. The objective of this work is to provide a review of several groups of biocompatible materials that might be utilized as constituents for the development of multifunctional bioactive coatings on metal materials with a focus on antimicrobial, pain-relieving, and anticoagulant properties. Moreover, the review presents a summary of medications used in clinical settings, the disadvantages of the commercially available products, and insight into the latest development strategies. For a more successful translation of such research into clinical practice, extensive knowledge of the chemical interactions between the components and a detailed understanding of the properties and mechanisms of biological matter are required. Moreover, the cost-efficiency of the surface treatment should be considered in the development process.

A systematic review and meta-analysis of animal literature. J Orthop Res 2021; 39:2615-2637.

Abstract
Surgical site infection in the presence of orthopedic implants poses significant healthcare and socioeconomic burden. To assess the potential of various prevention strategies against Staphylococcus-induced stainless steel-associated infections, a review of animal evidence was designed. The databases of PubMed, Embase, and CENTRAL were searched until March 10, 2020, for articles including animal models with stainless steel instrumentation and techniques to prevent Staphylococcus infection. We conducted a random-effects meta-analysis of standardized mean differences (SMD) with subgroup analysis linked to various protection strategies and we recorded complications. Quality was assessed with the SYRCLE's risk of bias tool. Twenty-five studies were included. Combined active coating (featuring organic antibacterial compound release) and degradable passive finishing (lipid- or polymer-based structure modification reducing bacterial adhesion) was favored over untreated controls (SMDs for methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus [MSSA] and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus [MRSA] were -3.46, 95% CI [-4.53 to -2.4], p < .001 [n = 4 head-to-head comparisons]; and -6.67, 95% CI [-10.53 to -3], p < .001 [n = 5 head-to-head comparisons], respectively). Systemic vitamin D supplementation and systemic antibiotic administration with or without local antibiotics demonstrated favorable outcomes against MSSA infection. On the contrary, no benefit was seen following vaccination. Of note, no side effects were documented. On the basis of data gathered from eight studies, which comprised 294 animals, a bioresorbable polymer- or lipid-based surface modification supplemented with organic coating yielded improved infection-related outcomes against MSSA and MRSA stainless steel infections, and therefore, this strategy could be further investigated in human research.

Abstract
Despite technological advancement, nosocomial infections are prevalent due to the rise of antibiotic resistance. A combinatorial approach with multimechanistic antibacterial activity is desired for an effective antibacterial medical device surface strategy. In this study, an antimicrobial peptide, nisin, is immobilized onto biomimetic nitric oxide (NO)-releasing medical-grade silicone rubber (SR) via mussel-inspired polydopamine (PDA) as a bonding agent to reduce the risk of infection. Immobilization of nisin on NO-releasing SR (SR-SNAP-Nisin) and the surface characteristics were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and contact angle measurements. The NO release profile (7 days) and diffusion of SNAP from SR-SNAP-Nisin were quantified using chemiluminescence-based nitric oxide analyzers and UV-vis spectroscopy, respectively. Nisin quantification showed a greater affinity of nisin immobilization toward SNAP-doped SR. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry analysis on surface nisin leaching for 120 h under physiological conditions demonstrated the stability of nisin immobilization on PDA coatings. SR-SNAP-Nisin shows versatile in vitro anti-infection efficacy against Gram-negative Escherichia coli and Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus in the planktonic and adhered states. Furthermore, the combination of NO and nisin has a superior ability to impair biofilm formation on polymer surfaces. SR-SNAP-Nisin leachates did not elicit cytotoxicity toward mouse fibroblast cells and human umbilical vein endothelial cells, indicating the biocompatibility of the material in vitro. The preventative and therapeutic potential of SR-SNAP-Nisin dictated by two bioactive agents may offer a promising antibacterial surface strategy.

Abstract
Implant related infections are the most common cause of joint arthroplasty failure, requiring revision surgeries and a new implant, resulting in a cost of $8.6 billion annually. To address this problem, we created a class of coating technology that is applied in the operating room, in a procedure that takes less than 10 min, and can incorporate any desired antibiotic. Our coating technology uses an in situ coupling reaction of branched poly(ethylene glycol) and poly(allyl mercaptan) (PEG-PAM) polymers to generate an amphiphilic polymeric coating. We show in vivo efficacy in preventing implant infection in both post-arthroplasty infection and post-spinal surgery infection mouse models. Our technology displays efficacy with or without systemic antibiotics, the standard of care. Our coating technology is applied in a clinically relevant time frame, does not require modification of implant manufacturing process, and does not change the implant shelf life.

Abstract
Biofilms are aggregates formed as a protective survival state by microorganisms to adapt to the environment and can be resistant to antimicrobial agents and host immune responses due to chemical or physical diffusion barriers, modified nutrient environments, suppression of the growth rate within biofilms, and the genetic adaptation of cells within biofilms. With the widespread use of medical devices, medical device-associated biofilms continue to pose a serious threat to human health, and these biofilms have become the most important source of nosocomial infections. However, traditional antimicrobial agents cannot completely eliminate medical device-associated biofilms. New strategies for the treatment of these biofilms and targeting biofilm infections are urgently required. Several novel approaches have been developed and identified as effective and promising treatments. In this review, we briefly summarize the challenges associated with the treatment of medical device-associated biofilm infections and highlight the latest promising approaches aimed at preventing or eradicating these biofilms.

[PMID: 32759748 PMCID: PMC7466637 DOI: 10.3390/nano10081527] [Citation(s) in RCA: 32] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2020] [Revised: 07/23/2020] [Accepted: 07/28/2020] [Indexed: 01/24/2023]
Abstract
The second part of our review describing new achievements in the field of biofilm prevention and control, begins with a discussion of the active antibiofilm nanocoatings. We present the antibiofilm strategies based on antimicrobial agents that kill pathogens, inhibit their growth, or disrupt the molecular mechanisms of biofilm-associated increase in resistance and tolerance. These agents of various chemical structures act through a plethora of mechanisms targeting vital bacterial metabolic pathways or cellular structures like cell walls and cell membranes or interfering with the processes that underlie different stages of the biofilm life cycle. We illustrate the latter action mechanisms through inhibitors of the quorum sensing signaling pathway, inhibitors of cyclic-di-GMP signaling system, inhibitors of (p)ppGpp regulated stringent response, and disruptors of the biofilm extracellular polymeric substances matrix (EPS). Both main types of active antibiofilm surfaces, namely non-leaching or contact killing systems, which rely on the covalent immobilization of the antimicrobial agent on the surface of the coatings and drug-releasing systems in which the antimicrobial agent is physically entrapped in the bulk of the coatings, are presented, highlighting the advantages of each coating type in terms of antibacterial efficacy, biocompatibility, selective toxicity, as well as drawbacks and limitations. Developments regarding combined strategies that join in a unique platform, both passive and active elements are not omitted. In such platforms with dual functionality, passive and active strategies can be applied either simultaneously or sequentially. We especially emphasize those systems that can be reversely and repeatedly switched between the non-fouling status and the bacterial killing status, thereby allowing several bacteria-killing/surface regeneration cycles to be performed without significant loss of the initial bactericidal activity. Eventually, smart antibiofilm coatings that release their antimicrobial payload on demand, being activated by various triggers such as changes in local pH, temperature, or enzymatic triggers, are presented. Special emphasis is given to the most recent trend in the field of anti-infective surfaces, specifically smart self-defensive surfaces for which activation and switch to the bactericidal status are triggered by the pathogens themselves.

Abstract
Prosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a devastating complication that results in substantial costs to society and patient morbidity. Advancements in our knowledge of this condition have focused on prevention, diagnosis, and treatment, in order to reduce rates of PJI and improve patient outcomes. Preventive measures such as optimization of patient comorbidities, and perioperative antibiotic usage are intensive areas of current clinical research to reduce the rate of PJI. Improved diagnostic tests such as synovial fluid (SF) α-defensin enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and nucleic acid-based tests for serum, SF, and tissue cultures, have improved diagnostic accuracy and organism identification. Increasing the diversity of available antibiotic therapy, immunotherapy, and alternative implant coatings remain promising treatments to improve infection eradication in the setting of PJI.

Abstract
Prosthetic joint infection (PJI) is one of the most devastating complications in orthopedic surgery. One approach used to prevent PJI is local antibiotic therapy. This study evaluates the antibiotic release, in vitro cytocompatibility and in vivo effectiveness in preventing PJI caused by Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) of the fluorine- and phosphorus-doped, bottle-shaped, nanostructured (bNT) Ti-6Al-4V alloy loaded with a mixture of gentamicin and vancomycin (GV). We evaluated bNT Ti-6Al-4V loading with a mixture of GV, measuring the release of these antibiotics using high-performance liquid chromatography. Further, we describe bNT Ti-6Al-4V GV cytocompatibility and its efficacy against S. aureus using an in vivo rabbit model. GV was released from bNT Ti-6Al-4V following a Boltzmann non-linear model and maximum release values were obtained at 240 min for both antibiotics. The cell proliferation of MCT3T3-E1 osteoblastic cells significantly increased at 48 (28%) and 168 h (68%), as did the matrix mineralization (52%) of these cells and the gene expression of three of the most important markers related to bone differentiation (more than threefold for VEGF and BGLAP, and 65% for RunX) on bNT Ti-6Al-4V GV compared with control. In vivo study results show that bNT Ti-6Al-4V GV can prevent S. aureus PJI according to histopathological and microbiological results. According to our results, bNT Ti-6Al-4V loaded with a mixture of GV using the soaking method is a promising biomaterial with favorable cytocompatibility and osteointegration, demonstrating local bactericidal properties against S. aureus. © 2019 Orthopaedic Research Society.

Abstract
Objective
Fibrin sealants have been used for hemostasis, sealant for cerebrospinal fluid leakage, and adhesive barrier in neurosurgery. Further, as its clinical use and role of an effective drug delivery vehicle have been proposed. This study was performed to measure antibacterial activity and continuous local antibiotic release from different concentrations of vancomycin-impregnated fibrin sealant in vitro.
Methods
Antibacterial activity was investigated by disk diffusion test by measuring the diameter of the growth inhibition zone of bacteria (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, ATCC29213) from vancomycin-embedded fibrin sealant disc diluted at five different concentrations (C1–C5; 8.33, 4.167, 0.83, 0.083, and 0.0083 mg/disc, respectively). Continuous and conditioned release of vancomycin concentration (for 2 weeks and for 5 days, respectively) were also measured using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method. To mimic the physiologic wound conditions with in vitro, conditioned vancomycin release in phosphate buffer solution (PBS) was measured and replaced PBS for five consecutive days, half a day or completely daily.
Results
In the disk diffusion test, the mean diameters of bacterial inhibition zone were 2.54±0.07 cm, 2.61±0.12 cm, and 2.13±0.15 cm (C1, C2, and C3 respectively) but 1.67±0.06 cm and 1.23±0.15 cm in C4 and C5, respectively. Continuous elution test elicited the peak release of vancomycin from the fibrin sealant at 48 hours, with continued release until 2 weeks. However, conditioned vancomycin release decreased to half or more on day 2, however, the sustainable release was measured over the therapeutic dose (10–20 μg/mL) for 5 days and 4 days in assays of half and total exchange of PBS.
Conclusion
This study suggests that fibrin sealant can provide an efficient vehicle for antibiotic drug release in a wide range of neurosurgical procedures and the safe and effective therapeutic dose will be at the concentration embedded of 4.167 mg/disc or more of vancomycin.

Abstract
Antimicrobial coating of medical devices has emerged as a potentially effective tool to prevent or ameliorate device-related infections. In this study the plasma deposition process for direct deposition of pharmaceutical drugs on to a range of surfaces and the retention of structure function relationship and antimicrobial efficacy against mono-species biofilms were investigated. Two selected sample antibiotics-ampicillin and gentamicin, were deposited onto two types of surfaces-polystyrene microtiter plates and stainless steel coupons. The antimicrobial efficacy of the antibiotic-coated surfaces was tested against challenge populations of both planktonic and sessile Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, with responses monitored for up to 14 days. The plasma deposition process bonded the antibiotic to the surfaces, with localized retention of antibiotic activity. The antibiotics deposited on the test surfaces retained a good efficacy against planktonic cells, and importantly prevented biofilm formation of attached cells for up to 96 h. The antibiotic rapidly eluted from the surface of antibiotic-coated surfaces to the surrounding medium, with retention of effect in this surrounding milieu for up to 2 weeks. Control experiments established that there was no independent antimicrobial or growth promoting effect of the plasma deposition process, where there was no antibiotic in the helium plasma assisted delivery stream. Apart from the flexibility offered through deposition on material surfaces, there was no additive or destructive effect associated with the helium assisted plasma deposition process on the antibiotic. The plasma assisted process was a viable mean of coating clinically relevant materials and developing innovative functional materials with retention of antibiotic activity, without employing a linker or plasma modified polymer, thus minimizing bio-compatibility issues for medical device materials. This offers potential to prevent or control instrumented or non-permanent device associated infection localized to the surgical or implant site.

Structural and Functional Dynamics of Staphylococcus aureus Biofilms and Biofilm Matrix Proteins on Different Clinical Materials. Microorganisms 2019; 7:microorganisms7120584. [PMID: 31756969 PMCID: PMC6955704 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms7120584] [Citation(s) in RCA: 29] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2019] [Revised: 11/14/2019] [Accepted: 11/18/2019] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
Abstract
Medical device-associated staphylococcal infections are a common and challenging problem. However, detailed knowledge of staphylococcal biofilm dynamics on clinically relevant surfaces is still limited. In the present study, biofilm formation of the Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923 strain was studied on clinically relevant materials-borosilicate glass, plexiglass, hydroxyapatite, titanium and polystyrene-at 18, 42 and 66 h. Materials with the highest surface roughness and porosity (hydroxyapatite and plexiglass) did not promote biofilm formation as efficiently as some other selected materials. Matrix-associated poly-N-acetyl-β-(1-6)-glucosamine (PNAG) was considered important in young (18 h) biofilms, whereas proteins appeared to play a more important role at later stages of biofilm development. A total of 460 proteins were identified from biofilm matrices formed on the indicated materials and time points-from which, 66 proteins were proposed to form the core surfaceome. At 18 h, the appearance of several r-proteins and glycolytic adhesive moonlighters, possibly via an autolysin (AtlA)-mediated release, was demonstrated in all materials, whereas classical surface adhesins, resistance- and virulence-associated proteins displayed greater variation in their abundances depending on the used material. Hydroxyapatite-associated biofilms were more susceptible to antibiotics than biofilms formed on titanium, but no clear correlation between the tolerance and biofilm age was observed. Thus, other factors, possibly the adhesive moonlighters, could have contributed to the observed chemotolerant phenotype. In addition, a protein-dependent matrix network was observed to be already well-established at the 18 h time point. To the best of our knowledge, this is among the first studies shedding light into matrix-associated surfaceomes of S. aureus biofilms grown on different clinically relevant materials and at different time points.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We have developed iodine-supported titanium implants, which were shown to have good anti-bacterial effects for Methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) in our past basic research. However, PJI can be caused by various bacteria including MRSA, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, MSSE, and fungus. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether these implants also have good antibacterial attachment effects for MRSA, P. aeruginosa, MSSE, and fungus. METHODS Ti-6Al-4V titanium plates were either left untreated (Ti), treated with oxide film on the Ti surface by anodization (Ti-O), or treated with an iodine coating on oxidation film (Ti-I). The antibacterial activity of the TiI was measured by experimental methods according to Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS) protocols. Implants in this study were exposed to MRSA (ATCC43300), P. aeruginosa (ATCC27853), MSSE (ATCC35984), and Candida Albicans (ATCC10231). Colonies were counted immediately after the bacteria attached to the metal surface and again after 24 h incubation. The difference in the number of bacteria on each metal plate was statistically investigated and an antibacterial activity value was calculated. An effective antibacterial active value of more than 2.0 was judged to be effective according to JIS protocol. RESULTS No countable viable bacteria were observed on the Ti-I surface. For all bacteria there was a significant difference in the mean number of viable bacteria between Ti-I and Ti or Ti-O. Antibacterial activity value in Ti-I and Ti-O was more than 5.9 and 3.6 respectively for MRSA, more than 2.8 and zero for P. aeruginosa, more than 4.3 and zero for MSSE, and more than 4.7 and zero for C. Albicans. CONCLUSIONS This study showed that iodine-supported titanium implants have good antimicrobial attachment effects for MRSA, P. aeruginosa, MSSE, and C. Albicans. Iodine-supported titanium implants could have great potential as innovative antibacterial implants that can prevent early onset periprosthetic joint infection.

Abstract
Prophylaxis and the treatment of implant-related infections has become a key focus area for research into improving the outcome of orthopedic implants. Functional resorbable coatings have been developed to provide an antimicrobial surface on the implant and reduce the risk of infection. However, resorbable coatings developed to date still suffer from low adhesive strength and an inadequate release rate of antibiotics. This study presents a novel double-coating of micro-arc oxidation and resorbable polylactide copolymer on a Ti-6Al-4V implant with the aim of reducing the risk of infection post-implantation. The adhesive strength, rate of coating degradation, and antibiotic release rate were investigated. A key finding was that the micro-arc oxidation coating with the addition of antibiotics increased the adhesive strength of the poly-l-lactide-co-ε-caprolactone (PLC) coatings. The adhesive strength was influenced by the concentration of the PLC solution, the surface structure of the titanium substrate, and the composition of the coatings. The antibiotics blended into the PLC coating had a release cycle of approximately 10 days, which would be long enough to reduce the risk of developing an infection after implantation. The double coatings presented in this study have an excellent potential for reducing the incidence and severity of implants-related early infections.

Abstract
Complex extremity wounds in Wounded Warriors can become contaminated with microbes, which may cause clinical outcomes resulting in amputation, morbidity, or even fatality. Local delivery of multiple or broad-spectrum antibiotics allows practicing clinicians treatment solutions that may inhibit biofilm formation. Propagation of vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus is also a growing concern. The development of vancomycin-resistant S. aureus has become a critical challenge in nosocomial infection prevention in the USA, but to date has seen little occurrence in osteomyelitis. As an alternative, locally delivered ciprofloxacin and rifampin were investigated in a preclinical model for the prevention of biofilm in complex extremity wounds with implanted fixation device. In vitro assays demonstrated ciprofloxacin and rifampin possess an additive effect against Gram-negative Pseudomonas aeruginosa and were actively eluted from a chitosan sponge based local delivery system. In an in vivo orthopedic hardware-associated polymicrobial model (S. aureus and Escherichia coli) the combination was able to achieve complete clearance of both bacterial strains. E. coli was detected in bone of untreated animals, but did not form biofilm on wires. Results reveal the clinical potential of antibiotic-loaded chitosan sponges to inhibit infection through tailored antibiotic selection at desired concentrations with efficacy towards biofilm inhibition.

Abstract
Military personnel have high risk for infection, particularly those with combat-related extremity trauma. Administration of multiple or broad-spectrum antibiotics provides clinicians with a strategy for preventing biofilm-based medical device infections. Selection of effective antibiotic combinations based on common pathogens may be used to improve chitosan wound dressing sponge-based local antibiotic delivery systems. In vitro assays in this study demonstrate that vancomycin and amikacin have a synergistic relationship against a strain of osteomyelitis-producing Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus, although an indifferent relationship was observed against Gram-negative Pseudomonas aeruginosa. In an in vivo model of orthopedic hardware-associated polymicrobial (S. aureus and Escherichia coli) biofilm, chitosan sponges loaded with a combination of vancomycin and amikacin at 5 mg/mL each showed a greater percentage of complete clearance, 50%, than either antibiotic alone, 8.33%. Doubling the loading concentration of the combination achieved a complete clearance rate of 100%, a four log-fold reduction of S. aureus on the wire and a six log-fold reduction in bone. E. coli was detected in bone of untreated animals but did not form biofilm on wires. Results demonstrate the clinical potential of chitosan sponges to prevent infection and illustrates antibiotic selection and loading concentrations necessary for effective biofilm prevention.

Abstract
Limb salvage is widely practiced as standard of care in most cases of extremity bone sarcoma. Allograft and endoprosthesis reconstructions are the most widely utilized modalities for the reconstruction of large segment defects, however complication rates remain high. Aseptic loosening and infection remain the most common modes of failure. Implant integration, soft-tissue function, and infection prevention are crucial for implant longevity and function. Macro and micro alterations in implant design are reviewed in this manuscript. Tissue engineering principles using nanoparticles, cell-based, and biological augments have been utilized to develop implant coatings that improve osseointegration and decrease infection. Similar techniques have been used to improve the interaction between soft tissues and implants. Tissue engineered constructs (TEC) used in combination with, or in place of, traditional reconstructive techniques may represent the next major advancement in orthopaedic oncology reconstructive science, although preclinical results have yet to achieve durable translation to the bedside.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The incidence of complications from prosthetic joint infection (PJI) is increasing, and treatment failure remains high. We review the current literature with a focus on Staphylococcus aureus pathogenesis and biofilm, as well as treatment challenges, and novel therapeutic strategies. RECENT FINDINGS S. aureus biofilm creates a favorable environment that increases antibiotic resistance, impairs host immunity, and increases tolerance to nutritional deprivation. Secreted proteins from bacterial cells within the biofilm and the quorum-sensing agr system contribute to immune evasion. Additional immunoevasive properties of S. aureus include the formation of staphylococcal abscess communities (SACs) and canalicular invasion. Novel approaches to target biofilm and increase resistance to implant colonization include novel antibiotic therapy, immunotherapy, and local implant treatments. Challenges remain given the diverse mechanisms developed by S. aureus to alter the host immune responses. Further understanding of these processes should provide novel therapeutic mechanisms to enhance eradication after PJI.

Abstract
Bacteria can form single- and multispecies biofilms exhibiting diverse features based upon the microbial composition of their community and microenvironment. The study of bacterial biofilm development has received great interest in the past 20 years and is motivated by the elegant complexity characteristic of these multicellular communities and their role in infectious diseases. Biofilms can thrive on virtually any surface and can be beneficial or detrimental based upon the community's interplay and the surface. Advances in the understanding of structural and functional variations and the roles that biofilms play in disease and host-pathogen interactions have been addressed through comprehensive literature searches. In this review article, a synopsis of the methodological landscape of biofilm analysis is provided, including an evaluation of the current trends in methodological research. We deem this worthwhile because a keyword-oriented bibliographical search reveals that less than 5% of the biofilm literature is devoted to methodology. In this report, we (i) summarize current methodologies for biofilm characterization, monitoring, and quantification; (ii) discuss advances in the discovery of effective imaging and sensing tools and modalities; (iii) provide an overview of tailored animal models that assess features of biofilm infections; and (iv) make recommendations defining the most appropriate methodological tools for clinical settings.

Abstract
Titanium (Ti) plays a predominant role as the material of choice in orthopaedic and dental implants. Despite the majority of Ti implants having long-term success, premature failure due to unsuccessful osseointegration leading to aseptic loosening is still too common. Recently, surface topography modification and biological/non-biological coatings have been integrated into orthopaedic/dental implants in order to mimic the surrounding biological environment as well as reduce the inflammation/infection that may occur. In this review, we summarize the impact of various Ti coatings on cell behaviour both in vivo and in vitro. First, we focus on the Ti surface properties and their effects on osteogenesis and then on bacterial adhesion and viability. We conclude from the current literature that surface modification of Ti implants can be generated that offer both osteoinductive and antimicrobial properties.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Osteomyelitis, a common and debilitating invasive infection of bone, is a frequent complication following orthopedic surgery and causes pathologic destruction of skeletal tissues. Bone destruction during osteomyelitis results in necrotic tissue, which is poorly penetrated by antibiotics and can serve as a nidus for relapsing infection. Osteomyelitis therefore frequently necessitates surgical debridement procedures, which provide a unique opportunity for targeted delivery of antimicrobial and adjunctive therapies. Areas covered: Following surgical debridement, tissue voids require implanted materials to facilitate the healing process. Antibiotic-loaded, non-biodegradable implants have been the standard of care. However, a new generation of biodegradable, osteoconductive materials are being developed. Additionally, in the face of widespread antimicrobial resistance, alternative therapies to traditional antibiotic regimens are being investigated, including bone targeting compounds, antimicrobial surface modifications of orthopedic implants, and anti-virulence strategies. Expert commentary: Recent advances in biodegradable drug delivery scaffolds make this technology an attractive alternative to traditional techniques for orthopedic infection that require secondary operations for removal. Advances in novel treatment methods are expanding the arsenal of viable antimicrobial treatment strategies in the face of widespread drug resistance. Despite a need for large scale clinical investigations, these strategies offer hope for future treatment of this difficult invasive disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Phosphatidylcholine coatings have been shown to elute antibiotics for several days. A recently developed biofilm inhibitor, cis-2-decenoic acid (C2DA), has been shown to exhibit synergistic activity with several common antibiotics. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of C2DA and amikacin dual drug delivery from a phosphatidylcholine coating. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES (1) What are the in vitro elution profiles of amikacin and C2DA from phosphatidylcholine-coated coupons in incubated phosphate-buffered saline? (2) Does the presence of C2DA in eluate samples lower the amount of amikacin needed for bacterial inhibition in overnight bacterial turbidity assays? (3) Does addition of amikacin and C2DA result in decreased colony-forming units (CFUs) on wire implants and bone when compared with phosphatidylcholine coatings alone in a mouse model of periprosthetic joint infection? METHODS Effects of loading concentrations were assessed during 7-day in vitro elution studies for coatings containing all mixtures of 0%, 5%, 15%, and 25% wt of amikacin and C2DA (n = 4) through quantitative high-performance liquid chromatography concentration determination and plotting concentration eluted over time. Antimicrobial activity was assessed by overnight turbidity testing of elution study samples against Staphylococcus aureus or Pseudomonas aeruginosa. In vivo efficacy was assessed using phosphatidylcholine-coated wire implants in a murine (mouse) model of infection (n = 3). Wire implants were coated with phosphatidylcholine containing no antimicrobials, amikacin alone, C2DA alone, or amikacin and C2DA and then inserted into the intramedullary femur of each mouse and inoculated with S aureus. The number of viable bacterial colonies on the implant surface and in the surrounding bone was determined after 1 week with the goal of achieving complete bacterial clearance. Total viable CFU count and proportion of samples achieving complete clearance were compared between groups. RESULTS Elution samples showed a burst response of amikacin and C2DA for 1 to 2 days with C2DA release continuing at low levels through Day 4. All tested eluate samples inhibited P aeruginosa. Samples from coatings containing 25% amikacin or 15% amikacin and any amount of C2DA were able to inhibit S aureus formation, but all coatings with 5% amikacin or 15% amikacin but no C2DA were not inhibitory. All in vivo treatment groups achieved complete bacterial clearance on the wire implant, and the C2DA alone and amikacin alone coatings cleared all CFUs in bone (pin: phosphatidylcholine only one of three; amikacin three of three, C2DA three of three, amikacin + C2DA three of three, p = 0.04 [Fisher's exact test]; bone: coating only: zero of three; amikacin: three of three; C2DA; three of three; C2DA + amikacin: one of three; p = 0.03 [Fisher's exact test]). CONCLUSIONS Phosphatidylcholine coatings elute antimicrobials in vitro under infinite sink conditions for up to 4 days in phosphate-buffered saline and were able to reduce bacterial colonies in a preliminary in vivo model. Turbidity testing with eluate samples containing varying amounts of C2DA and amikacin agrees with previous studies showing synergy between them. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Used as an adjunctive to systemic therapy, C2DA-loaded phosphatidylcholine coatings have potential value as a prophylactic infection prevention measure. Future studies may include different antibiotics, animal studies with larger sample sizes and more controls, and advanced coating delivery methods.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Local drug delivery devices offer a promising method for delivering vancomycin and amikacin for musculoskeletal wounds. However, current local delivery devices such as beads and sponges do not necessarily allow for full coverage of a wound surface with eluted antibiotics and do not address the need for reducing the antibiotic diffusion distance to help prevent contamination by bacteria or other microorganisms. We blended chitosan/polyethylene glycol (PEG) pastes/sponges to increase biocompatibility and improve antibiotic coverage within the wound. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES (1) Are blended chitosan/PEG pastes biodegradable? (2) Are the blended pastes biocompatible? (3) How much force does paste require for placement by injection? (4) Will the pastes elute active antibiotics to inhibit bacteria in vitro? (5) Can the pastes prevent infection in a preclinical model with hardware? METHODS Our blended paste/sponge formulations (0.5% acidic, 1% acidic, and acidic/neutral) along with a control neutral 1% chitosan sponge were tested in vitro for degradability, cytocompatibility, injectability tested by determining the amount of force needed to inject the pastes, elution of antibiotics, and activity tested using zone of inhibition studies. Along with these studies, in vivo models for biocompatibility and infection prevention were tested using a rodent model and an infected mouse model with hardware, respectively. By evaluating these characteristics, an improved local drug delivery device can be determined. RESULTS All three of the paste formulations evaluated were almost fully degraded and with 6 days of degradation, the percent remaining being was less than that of the control sponge (percent remaining: control 99.251% ± 1.0%; 0.5% acidic 1.6% ± 2.1%, p = 0.002; 1% acidic 1.7% ± 1.6%, p = 0.002; acidic/neutral 2.3% ± 1.7%, p = 0.010). There was good biocompatibility because cell viability in vitro was high (control 100.0 ± 14.3; 0.5% acidic formulation at 79.4 ± 12.6, p < 0.001; 1% acidic formulation at 98.6 ± 6.1, p = 0.993; acidic/neutral formulation at 106.7 ± 12.8, p = 0.543), and in vivo inflammation was moderate (control 2.1 ± 1.2; 0.5% acidic 3.3 ± 0.2, p = 0.530; 1% acidic 2.5 ± 0.9, p = 0.657; acidic/neutral 2.9 ± 1.1, p = 0.784). Force required to inject the 0.5% acidic and 1% acidic pastes was less than the acidic/neutral paste used as a control (control 167.7 ± 85.6; 0.5% acidic 41.3 ± 10.7, p = 0.070; 1% acidic 28.0 ± 7.0, p = 0.940). At 72 hours, all paste formulations exhibited in vitro activity against Staphylococcus aureus (control 2.6 ± 0.8; 0.5% acidic 98.1 ± 33.5, p = 0.002; 1% acidic 87.3 ± 17.2, p = 0.006; acidic/neutral 83.5 ± 14.3, p = 0.010) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (control 163.0 ± 1.7; 0.5% acidic 85.7 ± 83.6, p = 0.373; 1% acidic 38.0 ± 45.1, p = 0.896; acidic/neutral 129.7 ± 78.0, p = 0.896). Also, the paste formulations were able to prevent the infection with 100% clearance on the implanted hardware and surrounding tissue with the control being a 0.5% acidic paste group without antibiotics (control 4 × 104 ± 4.8 × 104; 0.5% acidic 0.0 ± 0.0, p value: 0.050; 1% acidic 0.0 ± 0.0, p = 0.050; acidic/neutral 0.0 ± 0.0, p = 0.050). CONCLUSIONS The preliminary studies demonstrated promising results for the blended chitosan/PEG pastes with antibiotics provided degradability, biocompatibility, injectability, and infection prevention for musculoskeletal-type wounds. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The preliminary studies with the chitosan paste delivered antibiotics to a contaminated musculoskeletal wound with hardware and prevented infection. More studies in a complex musculoskeletal wound and dosage studies are needed for continued development.

Abstract
PURPOSE We have developed iodine-supported titanium implants that suppress microbial activities and conducted in vivo and in vitro studies to determine their antimicrobial properties. METHODS The implants were Ti-6Al-4 V titanium implants either untreated (Ti), treated with oxide film on the Ti surface by anodization (Ti-O), or treated with an iodine coating on oxidation film (Ti-I). The strain of bacteria used in this study was Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus strain ATCC 25923. We analyzed the antibacterial attachment effects in vivo by using rats. The attachment bacteria on the implant surface were evaluated using a spread-plate method assay. A biofilm study was performed in vitro. The biofilm formed after bacterial attachment was qualitatively studied with fluorescence microscopy (FM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Also, the formed biofilm was quantitatively studied with a spread-plate method assay. RESULTS In vivo analysis of antimicrobial attachment effects showed that the mean viable bacterial number was significantly lower on Ti-I than Ti or Ti-O surfaces. In the in vitro biofilm study, FM and SEM images showed thick and mature biofilm formation on Ti and Ti-O and thin, small biofilm formation on Ti-I. A quantitative biofilm analysis found a significant difference in the number of viable bacteria between Ti-I and Ti or Ti-O. CONCLUSIONS This study showed that iodine-supported implants have a good antibacterial attachment effect and inhibit biofilm formation and growth. Iodine-supported implants may have great potential as innovative antibacterial implants that can prevent implant related infection in orthopaedic surgery.

Tobin EJ. Recent coating developments for combination devices in orthopedic and dental applications: A literature review. Adv Drug Deliv Rev 2017; 112:88-100. [PMID: 28159606 DOI: 10.1016/j.addr.2017.01.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 73] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2016] [Revised: 12/30/2016] [Accepted: 01/30/2017] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
Orthopedic and dental implants have been used successfully for decades to replace or repair missing or damaged bones, joints, and teeth, thereby restoring patient function subsequent to disease or injury. However, although device success rates are generally high, patient outcomes are sometimes compromised due to device-related problems such as insufficient integration, local tissue inflammation, and infection. Many different types of surface coatings have been developed to address these shortcomings, including those that incorporate therapeutic agents to provide localized delivery to the surgical site. While these coatings hold enormous potential for improving device function, the list of requirements that an ideal combination coating must fulfill is extensive, and no single coating system today simultaneously addresses all of the criteria. Some of the primary challenges related to current coatings are non-optimal release kinetics, which most often are too rapid, the potential for inducing antibiotic resistance in target organisms, high susceptibility to mechanical abrasion and delamination, toxicity, difficult and expensive regulatory approval pathways, and high manufacturing costs. This review provides a survey of the most recent developments in the field, i.e., those published in the last 2-3years, with a particular focus on technologies that have potential for overcoming the most significant challenges facing therapeutically-loaded coatings. It is concluded that the ideal coating remains an unrealized target, but that advances in the field and emerging technologies are bringing it closer to reality. The significant amount of research currently being conducted in the field provides a level of optimism that many functional combination coatings will ultimately transition into clinical practice, significantly improving patient outcomes.

Fosfomycin Addition to Poly(D,L-Lactide) Coating Does Not Affect Prophylaxis Efficacy in Rat Implant-Related Infection Model, But That of Gentamicin Does. PLoS One 2016; 11:e0165544. [PMID: 27806071 PMCID: PMC5091905 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0165544] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/17/2016] [Accepted: 10/13/2016] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Gentamicin is the preferred antimicrobial agent used in implant coating for the prevention of implant-related infections (IRI). However, the present heavy local and systemic administration of gentamicin can lead to increased resistance, which has made its future use uncertain, together with related preventive technologies. Fosfomycin is an alternative antimicrobial agent that lacks the cross-resistance presented by other classes of antibiotics. We evaluated the efficacy of prophylaxis of 10% fosfomycin-containing poly(D,L-lactide) (PDL) coated K-wires in a rat IRI model and compared it with uncoated (Control 1), PDL-coated (Control 2), and 10% gentamicin-containing PDL-coated groups with a single layer of coating. Stainless steel K-wires were implanted and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 43300) suspensions (103 CFU/10 μl) were injected into a cavity in the left tibiae. Thereafter, K-wires were removed and cultured in tryptic soy broth and then 5% sheep blood agar mediums. Sliced sections were removed from the tibiae, stained with hematoxylin-eosin, and semi-quantitatively evaluated with X-rays. The addition of fosfomycin into PDL did not affect the X-ray and histopathological evaluation scores; however, the addition of gentamicin lowered them. The addition of gentamicin showed a protective effect after the 28th day of X-ray evaluations. PDL-only coating provided no protection, while adding fosfomycin to PDL offered a 20% level protection and adding gentamicin offered 80%. Furthermore, there were 103 CFU level growths in the gentamicin-added group, while the other groups had 105. Thus, the addition of fosfomycin to PDL does not affect the efficacy of prophylaxis, but the addition of gentamicin does. We therefore do not advise the use of fosfomycin as a single antimicrobial agent in coating for IRI prophylaxis.

Evaluation of Antibiotics Active against Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Based on Activity in an Established Biofilm. Antimicrob Agents Chemother 2016; 60:5688-94. [PMID: 27401574 DOI: 10.1128/aac.01251-16] [Citation(s) in RCA: 36] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/10/2016] [Accepted: 07/07/2016] [Indexed: 01/16/2023] Open
Abstract
We used in vitro and in vivo models of catheter-associated biofilm formation to compare the relative activity of antibiotics effective against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in the specific context of an established biofilm. The results demonstrated that, under in vitro conditions, daptomycin and ceftaroline exhibited comparable activity relative to each other and greater activity than vancomycin, telavancin, oritavancin, dalbavancin, or tigecycline. This was true when assessed using established biofilms formed by the USA300 methicillin-resistant strain LAC and the USA200 methicillin-sensitive strain UAMS-1. Oxacillin exhibited greater activity against UAMS-1 than LAC, as would be expected, since LAC is an MRSA strain. However, the activity of oxacillin was less than that of daptomycin and ceftaroline even against UAMS-1. Among the lipoglycopeptides, telavancin exhibited the greatest overall activity. Specifically, telavancin exhibited greater activity than oritavancin or dalbavancin when tested against biofilms formed by LAC and was the only lipoglycopeptide capable of reducing the number of viable bacteria below the limit of detection. With biofilms formed by UAMS-1, telavancin and dalbavancin exhibited comparable activity relative to each other and greater activity than oritavancin. Importantly, ceftaroline was the only antibiotic that exhibited greater activity than vancomycin when tested in vivo in a murine model of catheter-associated biofilm formation. These results emphasize the need to consider antibiotics other than vancomycin, most notably, ceftaroline, for the treatment of biofilm-associated S. aureus infections, including by the matrix-based antibiotic delivery methods often employed for local antibiotic delivery in the treatment of these infections.

Impact of sarA and Phenol-Soluble Modulins on the Pathogenesis of Osteomyelitis in Diverse Clinical Isolates of Staphylococcus aureus. Infect Immun 2016; 84:2586-94.

Abstract
We used a murine model of acute, posttraumatic osteomyelitis to evaluate the virulence of two divergent Staphylococcus aureus clinical isolates (the USA300 strain LAC and the USA200 strain UAMS-1) and their isogenic sarA mutants. The results confirmed that both strains caused comparable degrees of osteolysis and reactive new bone formation in the acute phase of osteomyelitis. Conditioned medium (CM) from stationary-phase cultures of both strains was cytotoxic to cells of established cell lines (MC3TC-E1 and RAW 264.7 cells), primary murine calvarial osteoblasts, and bone marrow-derived osteoclasts. Both the cytotoxicity of CM and the reactive changes in bone were significantly reduced in the isogenic sarA mutants. These results confirm that sarA is required for the production and/or accumulation of extracellular virulence factors that limit osteoblast and osteoclast viability and that thereby promote bone destruction and reactive bone formation during the acute phase of S. aureus osteomyelitis. Proteomic analysis confirmed the reduced accumulation of multiple extracellular proteins in the LAC and UAMS-1 sarA mutants. Included among these were the alpha class of phenol-soluble modulins (PSMs), which were previously implicated as important determinants of osteoblast cytotoxicity and bone destruction and repair processes in osteomyelitis. Mutation of the corresponding operon reduced the cytotoxicity of CM from both UAMS-1 and LAC cultures for osteoblasts and osteoclasts. It also significantly reduced both reactive bone formation and cortical bone destruction by CM from LAC cultures. However, this was not true for CM from cultures of a UAMS-1 psmα mutant, thereby suggesting the involvement of additional virulence factors in such strains that remain to be identified.

Abstract
AIM: To test antibiotic-loaded coating for efficacy in reducing bacterial biofilm and development of osteomyelitis in an orthopaedic model of implant infection.
METHODS: Phosphatidylcholine coatings loaded with 25% vancomycin were applied to washed and sterilized titanium wires 20 mm in length. A 10 mm segment was removed from rabbit radius (total = 9; 5 coated, 4 uncoated), and the segment was injected with 1 × 106 colony forming units (CFUs) of Staphylococcus aureus (UAMS-1 strain). Titanium wires were inserted through the intramedullary canal of the removed segment and into the proximal radial segment and the segment was placed back into the defect. After 7 d, limbs were removed, X-rayed, swabbed for tissue contamination. Wires were removed and processed to determine attached CFUs. Tissue was swabbed and streaked on agar plates to determine bacteriological score.
RESULTS: Antibiotic-loaded coatings resulted in significantly reduced biofilm formation (4.7 fold reduction in CFUs; P < 0.001) on titanium wires and reduced bacteriological score in surrounding tissue (4.0 ± 0 for uncoated, 1.25 ± 0.5 for coated; P = 0.01). Swelling and pus formation was evident in uncoated controls at the 7 d time point both visually and radiographically, but not in antibiotic-loaded coatings.
CONCLUSION: Active antibiotic was released from coated implants and significantly reduced signs of osteomyelitic symptoms. Implant coatings were well tolerated in bone. Further studies with additional control groups and longer time periods are warranted. Antibiotic-loaded phosphatidylcholine coatings applied at the point of care could prevent implant-associated infection in orthopaedic defects.

The radish defensins RsAFP1 and RsAFP2 act synergistically with caspofungin against Candida albicans biofilms. Peptides 2016; 75:71-9. [PMID: 26592804 DOI: 10.1016/j.peptides.2015.11.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 45] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/13/2015] [Revised: 11/09/2015] [Accepted: 11/09/2015] [Indexed: 01/28/2023]
Abstract
The radish defensin RsAFP2 was previously characterized as a peptide with potent antifungal activity against several plant pathogenic fungi and human pathogens, including Candida albicans. RsAFP2 induces apoptosis and impairs the yeast-to-hypha transition in C. albicans. As the yeast-to-hypha transition is considered important for progression to mature biofilms, we analyzed the potential antibiofilm activity of recombinant (r)RsAFP2, heterologously expressed in Pichia pastoris, against C. albicans biofilms. We found that rRsAFP2 prevents C. albicans biofilm formation with a BIC-2 (i.e., the minimal rRsAFP2 concentration that inhibits biofilm formation by 50% as compared to control treatment) of 1.65 ± 0.40 mg/mL. Moreover, biofilm-specific synergistic effects were observed between rRsAFP2 doses as low as 2.5 μg/mL to 10 μg/mL and the antimycotics caspofungin and amphotericin B, pointing to the potential of RsAFP2 as a novel antibiofilm compound. In addition, we characterized the solution structure of rRsAFP2 and compared it to that of RsAFP1, another defensin present in radish seeds. These peptides have similar amino acid sequences, except for two amino acids, but rRsAFP2 is more potent than RsAFP1 against planktonic and biofilm cultures. Interestingly, as in case of rRsAFP2, also RsAFP1 acts synergistically with caspofungin against C. albicans biofilms in a comparable low dose range as rRsAFP2. A structural comparison of both defensins via NMR analysis revealed that also rRsAFP2 adopts the typical cysteine-stabilized αβ-motif of plant defensins, however, no structural differences were found between these peptides that might result in their differential antifungal/antibiofilm potency. This further suggests that the conserved structure of RsAFP1 and rRsAFP2 bears the potential to synergize with antimycotics against C. albicans biofilms.
