Int Endod J 2024; 57:787-803. [PMID: 38340038 DOI: 10.1111/iej.14040] [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: 10/23/2023] [Revised: 01/15/2024] [Accepted: 01/27/2024] [Indexed: 02/12/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND 'Periodontitis' refers to periodontal destruction of connective tissue attachment and bone, in response to microorganisms forming subgingival biofilms on the root surface, while 'apical periodontitis' refers to periapical inflammatory processes occurring in response to microorganisms within the root canal system. The treatment of both diseases is based on the elimination of the bacterial challenge, though its predictability depends on the ability of disrupting these biofilms, what may need adjunctive antibacterial strategies, such as the next-generation antibacterial strategies (NGAS). From all the newly developed NGAS, the use of polymeric nanotechnology may pose a potential effective approach. Although some of these strategies have only been tested in vitro and in preclinical in vivo models, their use holds a great potential, and therefore, it is relevant to understand their mechanism of action and evaluate their scientific evidence of efficacy. OBJECTIVES To explore NGAS based on polymeric nanotechnology used for the potential treatment of periodontitis and apical periodontitis. METHOD A systemic search of scientific publications of adjunctive antimicrobial strategies using nanopolymers to treat periodontal and periapical diseases was conducted using The National Library of Medicine (MEDLINE by PubMed), The Cochrane Oral Health Group Trials Register, EMBASE and Web of Science. RESULTS Different polymeric nanoparticles, nanofibres and nanostructured hydrogels combined with antimicrobial substances have been identified in the periodontal literature, being the most commonly used nanopolymers of polycaprolactone, poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) and chitosan. As antimicrobials, the most frequently used have been antibiotics, though other antimicrobial substances, such as metallic ions, peptides and naturally derived products, have also been added to the nanopolymers. CONCLUSION Polymeric nanomaterials containing antimicrobial compounds may be considered as a potential NGAS. Its relative efficacy, however, is not well understood since most of the existing evidence is derived from in vitro or preclinical in vivo studies.

Abstract
Bacterial infection and inflammation caused by excess oxidative stress are serious challenges in chronic wound healing. The aim of this work is to investigate a wound dressing based on natural- and biowaste-derived biopolymers loaded with an herb extract that demonstrates antibacterial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory activities without using additional synthetic drugs. Turmeric extract-loaded carboxymethyl cellulose/silk sericin dressings were produced by esterification crosslinking with citric acid followed by freeze-drying to achieve an interconnected porous structure, sufficient mechanical properties, and hydrogel formation in situ in contact with an aqueous solution. The dressings exhibited inhibitory effects on the growth of bacterial strains that were related to the controlled release of the turmeric extract. The dressings provided antioxidant activity as a result of the radical scavenging effect on DPPH, ABTS, and FRAP radicals. To confirm their anti-inflammatory effects, the inhibition of nitric oxide production in activated RAW 264.7 macrophages was investigated. The findings suggested that the dressings could be a potential candidate for wound healing.

Double crosslinked biomimetic composite hydrogels containing topographical cues and WAY-316606 induce neural tissue regeneration and functional recovery after spinal cord injury. Bioact Mater 2022; 24:331-345. [PMID: 36632504 PMCID: PMC9816912 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2022.12.024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/15/2022] [Revised: 11/01/2022] [Accepted: 12/22/2022] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is an overwhelming and incurable disabling condition, for which increasing forms of multifunctional biomaterials are being tested, but with limited progression. The promising material should be able to fill SCI-induced cavities and direct the growth of new neurons, with effective drug loading to improve the local micro-organism environment and promote neural tissue regeneration. In this study, a double crosslinked biomimetic composite hydrogel comprised of acellularized spinal cord matrix (ASCM) and gelatin-acrylated-β-cyclodextrin-polyethene glycol diacrylate (designated G-CD-PEGDA) hydrogel, loaded with WAY-316606 to activate canonical Wnt/β-catenin signaling, and reinforced by a bundle of three-dimensionally printed aligned polycaprolactone (PCL) microfibers, was constructed. The G-CD-PEGDA component endowed the composite hydrogel with a dynamic structure with a self-healing capability which enabled cell migration, while the ASCM component promoted neural cell affinity and proliferation. The diffusion of WAY-316606 could recruit endogenous neural stem cells and improve neuronal differentiation. The aligned PCL microfibers guided neurite elongation in the longitudinal direction. Animal behavior studies further showed that the composite hydrogel could significantly recover the motor function of rats after SCI. This study provides a proficient approach to produce a multifunctional system with desirable physiological, chemical, and topographical cues for treating patients with SCI.

Abstract
Cyclodextrins (CDs) are a family of cyclic oligosaccharides, consisting of a macrocyclic ring of glucose subunits linked by α-1,4 glycosidic bonds. The shape of CD molecules is similar to a truncated cone with a hydrophobic inner cavity and a hydrophilic surface, which allows the formation of inclusion complexes with various molecules. This review article summarises over 200 reports published by the end of 2021 that discuss the complexation of CDs with antibiotics and antibacterial agents, including beta-lactams, tetracyclines, quinolones, macrolides, aminoglycosides, glycopeptides, polypeptides, nitroimidazoles, and oxazolidinones. The review focuses on drug-delivery applications such as improving solubility, modifying the drug-release profile, slowing down the degradation of the drug, improving biological membrane permeability, and enhancing antimicrobial activity. In addition to simple drug/CD combinations, ternary systems with additional auxiliary substances have been described, as well as more sophisticated drug-delivery systems including nanosponges, nanofibres, nanoparticles, microparticles, liposomes, hydrogels, and macromolecules. Depending on the desired properties of the drug product, an accelerated or prolonged dissolution profile can be achieved when combining CD with antibiotics or antimicrobial agents.

Abstract
In medical science, sometimes two drugs with different solubilities are simultaneously required in combination to treat various diseases. Herein, a pH-responsive, copolymeric, antioxidant, biocompatible, and chemically crosslinked network gel is prepared to explore its capability as a matrix for controlled release of both hydrophobic [ibuprofen (IB)] and hydrophilic [tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH)] drugs, simultaneously. This three-dimensional β-CD-Meth-cl-(PHPMA-co-PAAc) network hydrogel is synthesized via two steps: (I) methacrylation of β-cyclodextrin and (II) grafting of poly(hydroxypropyl methacrylate) and poly(acrylic acid), followed by crosslinking of poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate onto the backbone of methacrylated β-cyclodextrin (β-CD-Meth). The successful synthesis of the hydrogel is confirmed using several physiochemical characterizations. The β-CD-Meth-cl-(PHPMA-co-PAAc) hydrogel has an excellent network-like surface morphology. The potential pH-responsive high swelling behavior and excellent shrinking features suggest the reversible nature of the synthesized gel. Besides, rheological analyses affirm its excellent viscoelastic nature. This network gel is biodegradable and its non-cytotoxic nature toward human dermal fibroblast cells is demonstrated. Moreover, the dual drug release pattern from the copolymer under both in vitro and in vivo conditions portrays that this hydrogel has superior ability to be used as a controlled release matrix for both hydrophobic and hydrophilic drugs (TCH and IB) with varying solubilities concurrently.

Abstract
As a low cost, biocompatible, and bioresorbable synthetic polymer, poly (ɛ-caprolactone) (PCL) is widely used for different biomedical applications including drug delivery, wound dressing, and tissue engineering. An extensive range of in vitro and in vivo tests has proven the favourable applicability of PCL in biomedicine, bringing about the FDA approval for a plethora of PCL made medical or drug delivery systems. This popular polymer, widely researched since the 1970s, can be readily processed through various techniques such as 3D printing and electrospinning to create biomimetic and customized medical products. However, low mechanical strength, insufficient number of cellular recognition sites, poor bioactivity, and hydrophobicity are main shortcomings of PCL limiting its broader use for biomedical applications. To maintain and benefit from the high potential of PCL, yet addressing its physicochemical and biological challenges, blending with nature-derived (bio)polymers and incorporation of nanofillers have been extensively investigated. Here, we discuss novel additives that have been meant for enhancement of PCL nanofiber properties and thus for further extension of the PCL nanofiber application domain. The most recent researches (since 2017) have been covered and an updated overview about hybrid PCL nanofibers is presented with focus on those including nature-derived additives, e.g., polysaccharides and proteins, and synthetic additives, e.g., inorganic and carbon nanomaterials.

Antibacterial nanofibers of pullulan/tetracycline-cyclodextrin inclusion complexes for Fast-Disintegrating oral drug delivery. J Colloid Interface Sci 2021; 610:321-333.

Abstract
Tetracycline is a widely used antibiotic suffering from poor water solubility and low bioavailability. Here, hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HPβCD) was used to form inclusion complexes (IC) of tetracycline with 2:1 M ratio (CD:drug). Then, tetracycline-HPβCD-IC was mixed with pullulan- a non-toxic, water-soluble biopolymer - to form nanofibrous webs via electrospinning. The electrospinning of pullulan/tetracycline-HPβCD-IC was yielded into defect-free nanofibers collected in the form of a self-standing and flexible material with the loading capacity of ∼ 7.7 % (w/w). Pullulan/tetracycline nanofibers was also generated as control sample having the same drug loading. Tetracycline was found in the amorphous state in case of pullulan/tetracycline-HPβCD nanofibers due to inclusion complexation. Through inclusion complexation with HPβCD, enhanced aqueous solubility and faster release profile were provided for pullulan/tetracycline-HPβCD-IC nanofibers compared to pullulan/tetracycline one. Additionally, pullulan/tetracycline-HPβCD-IC nanofibers readily disintegrated when wetted with artificial saliva while pullulan/tetracycline nanofibers were not completely absorbed by the same simulate environment. Electrospun nanofibers showed promising antibacterial activity against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Briefly, our findings indicated that pullulan/tetracycline-HPβCD-IC nanofibers could be an attractive material as orally fast disintegrating drug delivery system for the desired antibiotic treatment thanks to its promising physicochemical and antibacterial properties.

Abstract
Herein, an ultrasensitive and selective nanofluidic device for tetracycline (TC) was developed in association with γ-cyclodextrin and graphene oxide (GO). The assay was designed based on the change of the nanochannel surface charge due to the selective recognition ability of GO between aptamers and TC-aptamer complexes. And γ-cyclodextrin was utilized to eliminate the excess TC since the amine group molecules were inclined to be adsorbed onto the nanochannel surface and affected the adsorption efficiency of the nanochannel. In the presence of TC, TC specifically binded to the aptamer to form TC-aptamer and was separated from GO. The TC-aptamer complexes could be quantitated with conical nanochannels coated with polyethyleneimine (PEI)/Zr4+. The redundant TC was removed by γ-cyclodextrin. The detection limit of the nanofluidic device was as low as 2 ng L-1 (S/N = 3) and the linear range was 10 ng L-1 to 10 μg L-1. Moreover, the nanofluidic device provided high specificity and good recovery rates of 94.8-109.3% in natural river, tapwater and wastewater samples. The results revealed that our study provided a new rapid detection method for trace contaminant analysis.

Abstract
Here, we prepared the solid inclusion complexes between Caffeic acid (CA) and Cyclodextrins (β- and γ-CDs) (CA/CDs) that were effectively embedded into Poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) electrospun nanofibers via electrospinning technique to enhanced solubility and antibacterial activity. In tested Cyclodextrins are β-and γ-CDs with CA in the ratio of 1:1 resulting in the formation of CA/CDs by co-precipitation method. The physical properties of CA/CDs were examined by FT-IR, UV, and Raman Spectroscopy. The phase solubility test showed a much higher solubility of CA due to inclusion complexes (ICs). Furthermore, CA/β-CD and CA/γ-CD perfected achieved 0.70:1 and 0.80:1 the molar ratio of ICs, confirmed by NMR studies. The fiber size distribution, average diameter, and morphology features were evaluated by SEM analysis. The dissolution profile of PVA/CA and PVA/CA/CDs were tested within 150 min, resulting in CA dissolved in PVA/CA/CDs slightly higher than PVA/CA nanofibers due to enhanced solubility of ICs. Moreover, PVA/CA/CDs exhibit high antibacterial activity against gram-positive bacteria of E-Coli and gram-negative bacteria of S. aureus. Finally, these results suggest that PVA/CA/CDs may be promising materials for active food packaging applications.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a set of inflammatory conditions affecting the tissues surrounding the teeth predominantly sustained by bacterial infections. The aim of the work was the design and the development of scaffolds based on biopolymers to be inserted in the periodontal pocket to restore tissue integrity and to treat bacterial infections. Nanofibrous scaffolds were prepared by means of electrospinning. Gelatin was considered as base component and was associated to low and high molecular weight chitosans and alginate. The scaffolds were characterized by chemico–physical properties (morphology, solid state-FTIR and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)-surface zeta potential and contact angle), and mechanical properties. Moreover, preclinical properties (cytocompatibility, fibroblast and osteoblast adhesion and proliferation and antimicrobial properties) were assessed. All the scaffolds were based on cylindrical and smooth nanofibers and preserved their nanofibrous structure upon hydration independently of their composition. They possessed a high degree of hydrophilicity and negative zeta potentials in a physiological environment, suitable surface properties to enhance cell adhesion and proliferation and to inhibit bacteria attachment. The scaffold based on gelatin and low molecular weight chitosan proved to be effective in vitro to support both fibroblasts and osteoblasts adhesion and proliferation and to impair the proliferation of Streptococcus mutans and Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, both pathogens involved in periodontitis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the antibacterial effect of a novel non-resorbable, bioactive polymeric nanostructured membrane (NMs), when doped with zinc, calcium and doxycycline. METHODS A validated in vitro subgingival biofilm model with six bacterial species (Streptococcus oralis, Actinomyces naeslundii, Veillonela parvula, Fusobacterium nucleatum, Porphyromonas gingivalis and Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans) was used. The experimental NMs, with and without being doped with doxycycline, calcium and zinc, were placed on hydroxyapatite (HA) discs. As positive control membranes, commercially available dense polytetrafluoroethylene (d-PTFE) membranes were used and, as negative controls, the HA discs without any membrane. The experimental, positive and negative control discs were exposed to a mixed bacterial suspension, at 37 °C under anaerobic conditions, during 12, 24, 48 and 72 h. The resulting biofilms were analyzed through scanning electron microscopy (SEM), to study their structure, and by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), to assess the bacterial load, expressed as colony forming units (CFU) per mL. Differences between experimental and control groups were evaluated with the general linear model and the Bonferroni adjustment. RESULTS As shown by SEM, all membrane groups, except the NMs with doxycycline, resulted in structured biofilms from 12-72 hours. Similarly, only the membranes loaded with doxycycline demonstrated a significant reduction in bacterial load during biofilm development, when compared with the control groups (p < 0.001). SIGNIFICANCE Doxycycline-doped nanostructured membranes have an impact on biofilm growth dynamics by significant reducing the bacterial load.

Abstract
Cyclodextrins (CD) are a group of cyclic oligosaccharides with a cavity/specific structure that enables to form inclusion complexes (IC) with a variety of molecules through non-covalent host-guest interactions. By an elegant combination of CD with biocompatible, synthetic and natural polymers, different types of universal drug delivery systems with dynamic/reversible properties have been generated. This review presents the design of nano- and micro-carriers, hydrogels, and fibres based on the polymer/CD supramolecular systems highlighting their possible biomedical applications. Application of the most prominent hydrophobic aliphatic polyesters that exhibit biodegradability, represented by polylactide and polycaprolactone, is described first. Subsequently, particular attention is focused on materials obtained from hydrophilic polyethylene oxide. Moreover, examples are also presented for grafting of CD on polysaccharides. In summary, we show the application of host-guest interactions in multi-component functional biomaterials for controlled drug delivery.

Abstract
Purpose Electrospun PLA fiber devices were investigated in the form of fiber mats and disks. Metronidazole was used as an active agent; its concentration was 12.2 and 25.7 wt% in the devices. Methods The structure was studied by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy, drug release by dissolution measurements, while the antimicrobial efficiency was tested on five bacterial strains. Results The XRD study showed that the polymer was partially crystalline in both devices, but a part of metronidazole precipitated and was in the form of crystals among and within the fibers. Liquid penetration and dissolution were different in the two devices, they were faster in disks and slower in fiber mats, due to the morphology of the device and the action of capillary forces. Disks released the drug much faster than fiber mats. Although the release study indicated fast drug dissolution, the concentration achieved a plateau value in 24 hrs for the disks; the inhibition effect lasted much longer, 13 days for bacteria sensitive to metronidazole. The longer inhibition period could be explained by the slower diffusion of metronidazole located inside the fibers of the device. Conclusion The results suggest that the devices may be effective in the treatment of periodontitis.

Abstract
In this study, the polymer-free electrospinning was performed in order to produce cyclodextrin/ibuprofen inclusion complex nanofibers, which could have potential as the fast dissolving oral drug delivery system. Ibuprofen is a poorly water-soluble nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug; however, the water solubility of ibuprofen can be significantly enhanced by inclusion complexation with cyclodextrins. Here, hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HPβCyD) was chosen both as a nanofiber matrix and host molecule for inclusion complexation in order to enhance water solubility and fast dissolution of ibuprofen. Ibuprofen was inclusion-complexed with HPβCyD in highly concentrated aqueous solutions of HPβCyD (200%, w/v) having two different molar ratios: 1:1 and 2:1 (HPβCyD/ibuprofen). The HPβCyD/ibuprofen-IC (1:1) aqueous solution was turbid having some undissolved/uncomplexed ibuprofen, whereas HPβCyD/ibuprofen-IC (2:1) aqueous solution was homogeneous and clear, indicating that ibuprofen was totally complexed with HPβCyD and becomes water soluble. Then, both HPβCyD/ibuprofen-IC solutions (1:1 and 2:1) were electrospun into bead-free and uniform nanofibers having ∼200 nm fiber diameter. The electrospun HPβCyD/ibuprofen-IC nanofibers were obtained as nanofibrous webs having self-standing and flexible character, which is appropriate for fast dissolving oral drug delivery systems. Ibuprofen was completely preserved during the electrospinning process, and the resulting electrospun HPβCyD/ibuprofen-IC nanofibers were produced without any loss of ibuprofen by preserving the initial molar ratio of 1:1 and 2:1 (HPβCyD/ibuprofen). X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry measurements indicated the presence of some crystalline ibuprofen in HPβCyD/ibuprofen-IC (1:1) nanofibers, whereas ibuprofen was totally in the amorphous state in HPβCyD/ibuprofen-IC (2:1) nanofibers. Nonetheless, both HPβCyD/ibuprofen-IC (1:1 and 2:1) nanofibrous webs have shown very fast dissolving character when contacted with water or when wetted with artificial saliva. In brief, our results revealed that electrospun HPβCyD/ibuprofen-IC nanofibrous webs have potential as fast dissolving oral drug delivery systems.

Abstract
Periodontal diseases (PD) are mixed bacterial infections caused by microorganisms that colonize the tooth surface, leading to destructions at tooth-supporting tissues. Several local delivery systems, as nanofibers, have been developed for the treatment of PD. The purpose of the present study was developing polycaprolactone (PCL) nanofibers incorporating two antibacterial agents, OTC and ZnO, for use in the treatment of PD. Nanofibers were produced by electrospinning method: PCL loaded with ZnO (PCL-Z), PCL loaded with OTC (PCL-OTC), PCL loaded with OTC and ZnO (PCL-OTCz) and pristine PCL (PCL-P). The nanofibers were characterized physicochemically using different techniques. In addition, in vitro study of the OTC release from the nanofibers was performed. The PCL-OCT showed sustained release of the drug up to 10 h, releasing 100% of OTC. However, the PCL-OTCz nanofiber showed a slow release of OTC up to 120 h (5th day) with 54% of drug retention. The cytotoxicity assay showed that PCL-OTC nanofiber was slightly cytotoxic after 48 h and the other nanofibers were non-cytotoxic. The antibacterial activity of the nanofibers was evaluated by qualitative and quantitative analysis and against mixed bacterial culture, composed of four Gram-negative anaerobic bacteria involved in periodontal diseases. The disk diffusion method showed that the PCL-OTC displayed higher inhibition zone than PCL-OTCz (p < 0.001). The quantitative analysis, evaluated by broth culture, showed that the PCL-OTC and PCL-OTCz exhibited excellent activity against a mixed bacterial culture with growth inhibition of 98.0% and 97.5%, respectively. Based on these results, the PCL-OTCz nanofibers developed have great potential as a drug delivery system for the PD treatment.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a common infectious disease characterized by loss of tooth-supporting structures, which eventually leads to tooth loss. The heavy burden of periodontal disease and its negative consequence on the patient's quality of life indicate a strong need for developing effective therapies. According to the World Health Organization, 10⁻15% of the global population suffers from severe periodontitis. Advances in understanding the etiology, epidemiology and microbiology of periodontal pocket flora have called for antibacterial therapeutic strategies for periodontitis treatment. Currently, antimicrobial strategies combining with polymer science have attracted tremendous interest in the last decade. This review focuses on the state of the art of antibacterial polymer application against periodontal pathogens and biofilms. The first part focuses on the different polymeric materials serving as antibacterial agents, drug carriers and periodontal barrier membranes to inhibit periodontal pathogens. The second part reviews cutting-edge research on the synthesis and evaluation of a new generation of bioactive dental polymers for Class-V restorations with therapeutic effects. They possess antibacterial, acid-reduction, protein-repellent, and remineralization capabilities. In addition, the antibacterial photodynamic therapy with polymeric materials against periodontal pathogens and biofilms is also briefly described in the third part. These novel bioactive and therapeutic polymeric materials and treatment methods have great potential to inhibit periodontitis and protect tooth structures.

Abstract
Electrospun nanofibers have sparked tremendous attention in drug delivery since they can offer high specific surface area, tailored release of drugs, controlled surface chemistry for preferred protein adsorption, and tunable porosity. Several functional motifs were incorporated into electrospun nanofibers to greatly expand their drug loading capacity or to provide the sustained release of the embedded drug molecules. In this regard, cyclodextrins (CyD) are considered as ideal drug carrier molecules as they are natural, edible, and biocompatible compounds with a truncated cone-shape with a relatively hydrophobic cavity interior for complexation with hydrophobic drugs and a hydrophilic exterior to increase the water-solubility of drugs. Further, the formation of CyD-drug inclusion complexes can protect drug molecules from physiological degradation, or elimination and thus increases the stability and bioavailability of drugs, of which the release takes place with time, accompanied by fiber degradation. In this review, we summarize studies related to CyD-functional electrospun nanofibers for drug delivery applications. The review begins with an introductory description of electrospinning; the structure, properties, and toxicology of CyD; and CyD-drug complexation. Thereafter, the release of various drug molecules from CyD-functional electrospun nanofibers is provided in subsequent sections. The review concludes with a summary and outlook on material strategies.

Abstract
The fabrication of nanofibers by electrospinning has gained popularity in the past two decades; however, only in this decade, have polymeric nanofibers been functionalized using cyclodextrins (CDs) or their inclusion complexes (ICs). By combining electrospinning of polymers with free CDs, nanofibers can be fabricated that are capable of capturing small molecules, such as wound odors or environmental toxins in water and air. Likewise, combining polymers with cyclodextrin-inclusion complexes (CD-ICs), has shown promise in enhancing or controlling the delivery of small molecule guests, by minor tweaking in the technique utilized in fabricating these nanofibers, for example, by forming core⁻shell or multilayered structures and conventional electrospinning, for controlled and rapid delivery, respectively. In addition to small molecule delivery, the thermomechanical properties of the polymers can be significantly improved, as our group has shown recently, by adding non-stoichiometric inclusion complexes to the polymeric nanofibers. We recently reported and thoroughly characterized the fabrication of polypseudorotaxane (PpR) nanofibers without a polymeric carrier. These PpR nanofibers show unusual rheological and thermomechanical properties, even when the coverage of those polymer chains is relatively sparse (~3%). A key advantage of these PpR nanofibers is the presence of relatively stable hydroxyl groups on the outer surface of the nanofibers, which can subsequently be taken advantage of for bioconjugation, making them suitable for biomedical applications. Although the number of studies in this area is limited, initial results suggest significant potential for bone tissue engineering, and with additional bioconjugation in other areas of tissue engineering. In addition, the behaviors and uses of aliphatic polyester nanofibers functionalized with CDs and CD-ICs are briefly described and summarized. Based on these observations, we attempt to draw conclusions for each of these combinations, and the relationships that exist between their presence and the functional behaviors of their nanofibers.

Abstract
Biodegradable polymers have met with an increasing demand in medical usage over the last decades. One of such polymers is poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL), which is a polyester that has been widely used in tissue engineering field for its availability, relatively inexpensive price and suitability for modification. Its chemical and biological properties, physicochemical state, degradability and mechanical strength can be adjusted, and therefore, it can be used under harsh mechanical, physical and chemical conditions without significant loss of its properties. Degradation time of PCL is quite long, thus it is used mainly in the replacement of hard tissues in the body where healing also takes an extended period of time. It is also used at load-bearing tissues of the body by enhancing its stiffness. However, due to its tailorability, use of PCL is not restricted to one type of tissue and it can be extended to engineering of soft tissues by decreasing its molecular weight and degradation time. This review outlines the basic properties of PCL, its composites, blends and copolymers. We report on various techniques for the production of different forms, and provide examples of medical applications such as tissue engineering and drug delivery systems covering the studies performed in the last decades.

Hybrid nanofibers based on poly-caprolactone/gelatin/hydroxyapatite nanoparticles-loaded Doxycycline: Effective anti-tumoral and antibacterial activity. MATERIALS SCIENCE & ENGINEERING. C, MATERIALS FOR BIOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS 2017; 83:25-34. [PMID: 29208285 DOI: 10.1016/j.msec.2017.08.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 61] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/06/2017] [Revised: 07/19/2017] [Accepted: 08/02/2017] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
Cancer is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality Worldwide, 19.3 million new cancer cases are expected to be identified in 2025. Among the therapeutic arsenal to cancer control one could find the Doxycycline and the nano hydroxyapatite. The Doxycycline (Dox) not only shown antibiotic effect but also exhibits a wide range of pleiotropic therapeutic properties as the control of the invasive and metastatic cancer cells characteristics. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate both cytotoxicity in vitro and antibacterial activity of electrospun Dox-loaded hybrid nanofibrous scaffolds composed by hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (nHA), poly-ε-caprolactone (PCL) and gelatin (Gel) polymers. Both nHA and Dox were dispersed into different PCL/Gel ratios (70:30, 60:40, 50:50wt%) solutions to form electrospun nanofibers. The nHA and Dox/nHA/PCL-Gel hybrid nanofibers were characterized by TEM microscopy. In vitro Dox release behavior from all of these Dox-loaded nHA/PCL-Gel nanofibers showed the same burst release profile due to the high solubility of Gel in the release medium. Antibacterial properties of nanofiber composites were evaluated using Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and Gram-negative Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) bacteria. The co-delivery of nHA particles and Dox simultaneously exhibited inhibition of bacterial growth more efficiently than the delivery of either Dox or nHA at the same concentrations, indicating a synergistic effect. The results showed that cancer cell tested had different sensibility to co-delivery system. On the whole, A-431 cells were found exhibited the most pronounced synergistic effect compared to CACO-2 and 4T1 cancer cells. Based on the anticancer as well as the antimicrobial results in this study, the developed Dox/nHA/PCL-Gel composite nanofibers are suitable as a drug delivery system with potential applications in the biomedical fields.
