Alloy nanozyme-reinforced hyaluronic acid-based hydrogel with wound environment-responsive properties for synergistically accelerating infectious wound healing. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 269:131896. [PMID: 38677681 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.131896] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2024] [Revised: 03/12/2024] [Accepted: 04/24/2024] [Indexed: 04/29/2024]
Abstract
The recovery of infectious wound tissues presents a significant global health challenge due to the impediments posed by the harsh healing microenvironment, which includes ongoing bacterial invasion, high oxidative stress, inflammatory response, and impaired angiogenesis. To overcome the above issues, we propose a composite hydrogel based on the multiple-crosslinked mechanism involving the covalent network of CC bonds within catechol and maleic-modified HA (CMHA), the self-assembly network of glycyrrhizic acid (GA), and the metal-polyphenol coordination induced by ZHMCe for accelerating infectious wound healing. The resulting CMHA/GA/ZHMCe hydrogels demonstrate enhanced mechanical, adhesive, antioxidative, and antibacterial properties. Importantly, the hydrogel system possesses wound environment-responsive properties that allow it to adapt to the specific therapeutic requirements of different stages by regulating various enzyme activities in the healing of infected wounds. Furthermore, the biocompatible CMHA/GA/ZHMCe shows the ability to promote cell migration and angiogenesis in vitro while reprogramming macrophages toward an anti-inflammatory phenotype due to the effective release of active ingredients. In vivo experiments confirm that the CMHA/GA/ZHMCe hydrogel significantly enhances infectious wound healing by accelerating re-epithelialization, promoting collagen deposition, regulating inflammation, and contributing to vascularization. These findings underscore the therapeutic potential of our hydrogel dressings for the treatment of bacterially infected cutaneous wound healing.

Abstract
Skin is the first barrier of body which stands guard for defending aggressive pathogens and environmental pressures all the time. Cutaneous metabolism changes in harmful exposure, following with skin dysfunctions and diseases. Lots of researches have reported that polysaccharides extracted from seaweeds exhibited multidimensional bioactivities in dealing with skin disorder. However, few literature systematically reviews them. The aim of the present paper is to summarize structure, bioactivities and structure-function relationship of algal polysaccharides acting on skin. Algal polysaccharides show antioxidant, immunomodulating, hydration regulating, anti-melanogenesis and extracellular matrix (ECM) regulating abilities via multipath ways in skin. These bioactivities are determined by various parameters, including seaweed species, molecular weight, monosaccharides composition and substitute groups. In addition, potential usages of algae-derived polysaccharides in skin care and therapy are also elaborated. Algal polysaccharides are potential ingredients in formulation that providing anti-aging efficacy for skin.

Abstract
AbstractPectin is a complex polysaccharide found in a variety of fruits and vegetables. It has been shown to have potential antidiabetic activity along with other biological activities, including cholesterol-lowering properties, antioxidant activity, anti-inflammatory and immune-modulatory effects, augmented healing of diabetic foot ulcers and other health benefits. There are several pectin-associated antidiabetic mechanisms, such as the regulation of glucose metabolism, reduction of oxidative stress, increased insulin sensitivity, appetite suppression and modulation of the gut microbiome. Studies have shown that pectin supplementation has antidiabetic effects in different animal models and in vitro. In human studies, pectin has been found to have a positive effect on blood glucose control, particularly in individuals with type 2 diabetes. Pectin also shows synergistic effects by enhancing the potency and efficacy of antidiabetic drugs when taken together. In conclusion, pectin has the potential to be an effective antidiabetic agent. However, further research is needed to fully understand its detailed molecular mechanisms in various animal models, functional food formulations and safety profiles for the treatment and management of diabetes and associated complications in humans. The current study was carried out to provide the critical approach towards therapeutical potential, anti-diabetic potential and underlying molecular mechanisms on the basis of existing knowledge.

Abstract
Diabetic wounds are a prevalent and devastating complication of diabetes, which may impede their healing and regeneration. In diabetic wounds, excess reactive oxygen species (ROS) activate the nuclear factor kappa-B pathway, leading to transcriptional silencing of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), resulting in a vicious cycle of oxidative stress and inflammation. Conventional nanozymes have limitations in preventing the continuous production of ROS, including the most oxidizing reactive hydroxyl radical (·OH), although they can remove pre-existing ROS. Herein, a novel antioxidant nanoplatform addresses this challenge by incorporating JSH-23 into the mesoporous of cupric-doped cerium oxide nanozymes. Additionally, for rapid wound adaptability and durable tissue adhesion, a nanozyme hydrogel spray consisting of oxidized sodium alginate and methacrylate gelatin is constructed, named OG@CCJs. This platform resurrects Nrf2 transcriptional activity of macrophages in vitro, curbing the production of ROS at its source, particularly ·OH, while enabling the nanozymes to scavenge previously generated ROS. OG@CCJs significantly alleviate oxidative stress in diabetic wounds in vivo, promoting wound healing. Overall, the proposed nanozyme-hydrogel spray with enhanced ·OH-scavenging activity uses a "two-track" antioxidant strategy to rebuild the antioxidant defense barrier of macrophages. This pioneering approach highlights the tremendous potential of OG@CCJs for facilitating diabetic wound healing.

Abstract
As the body's largest organ, the skin is located at the internal and external environment interface, serving as a line of defense against various harmful stressors. Recently, marine-derived physiologically active ingredients have attracted considerable attention in the cosmeceutical industry due to their beneficial effects on skin health. Sargassum, a genus of brown macroalgae, has traditionally been consumed as food and medicine in several countries and is rich in bioactive compounds such as meroterpenoids, sulfated polysaccharides, fucoidan, fucoxanthin, flavonoids, and terpenoids. Sargassum spp. have various beneficial effects on skin disorders. They help with atopic dermatitis by improving skin barrier protection and reducing inflammation. Several species show potential in treating acne by inhibiting bacterial growth and reducing inflammation. Some species, such as Sargassum horneri, demonstrate antiallergic effects by modulating mast cell activity. Certain Sargassum species exhibit anticancer activity by inhibiting tumor growth and promoting apoptosis, and some species help with wound healing by promoting angiogenesis and reducing oxidative stress. Overall, Sargassum spp. demonstrate potential for treating and managing various skin conditions. Therefore, the bioactive compounds of Sargassum spp. may be natural ingredients with a wide range of functional properties for preventing and treating skin disorders. The present review focused on the various biological effects of Sargassum extracts and derived compounds on skin disorders.

Abstract
Skin wound healing, particularly diabetic wound healing, is challenging in clinical management. Impaired wound healing is associated with persistent oxidative stress, altered inflammatory responses, unsatisfactory angiogenesis and epithelialization. Magnesium ascorbyl phosphate (MAP), which is an ascorbic acid derivative and active ingredient in cosmetics, has been reported to scavenge reactive oxygen species (ROS), and is considered a potential therapeutic agent for diabetic wounds. Herein, we report a hybrid gelatin-MAP scaffolds that can reduces oxidative stress damage, enhances angiogenesis and collagen remodeling to accelerate diabetic wound repair. Preliminary insights based on network pharmacology indicate that MAP may accelerate wound repair through multiple biological pathways, including extracellular matrix remodeling and anti-apoptosis. In vitro studies showed that the hybrid hydrogel scaffold had suitable mechanical properties, excellent biocompatibility and bioactivity. Further animal experiments demonstrated that the hydrogel accelerated full-thickness wound repair in diabetic mice (repair rate MAP vs Control=91.791±3.306 % vs 62.962±6.758 %) through antioxidant, neuroangiogenesis, collagen remodeling, and up-regulated the expression of the related factors COL-1, CD31, VEGF, and CGRP. Overall, we developed a bioactive hybrid hydrogel encapsulating MAP that synergistically promotes diabetic wound repair through multiple biological effects. This potentially integrated therapeutic scaffold may enrich future surgical approaches for treating diabetic wounds.

Abstract
Bacteria-induced epidemics and infectious diseases are seriously threatening the health of people around the world. In addition, antibiotic therapy has been inducing increasingly more serious bacterial resistance, which makes it urgent to develop new treatment strategies to combat bacteria, including multidrug-resistant bacteria. Natural extracts displaying antibacterial activity and good biocompatibility have attracted much attention due to greater concerns about the safety of synthetic chemicals and emerging drug resistance. These antibacterial components can be isolated and utilized as antimicrobials, as well as transformed, combined, or wrapped with other substances by using modern assistive technologies to fight bacteria synergistically. This review summarizes recent advances in natural extracts from three kinds of sources-plants, animals, and microorganisms-for antibacterial applications. This work discusses the corresponding antibacterial mechanisms and the future development of natural extracts in antibacterial fields.

Cancer Lett 2024; 582:216517.

Abstract
Src homology 2 domain-containing phosphatase (SHP2) is a non-receptor protein phosphatase that transduces signals from upstream receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs)/non-RTKs to Ras/MAPK pathway. Accumulating studies indicated that SHP2 is a critical mediator of resistance to current targeted therapies in multiple cancers. Here, we reported a novel SHP2 allosteric inhibitor JC-010a, which was highly selective to SHP2 and bound at the "tunnel" allosteric site of SHP2. The effect of JC-010a on combating RTK/non-RTK or MAPK inhibitors-induced acquired resistance was explored. Our study demonstrated that JC-010a monotherapy significantly inhibited the proliferation of cancer cells with different oncogenic drivers via inhibiting signaling through SHP2. Importantly, JC-010a abolished acquired resistance induced by targeted therapies: in KRAS-mutant cancers, JC-010a abrogated selumetinib-induced adaptive resistance mediated by RTK/SHP2; in BCR-ABL-driven leukemia cells, we demonstrated JC-010a inhibited BCR-ABL T315I mutation-mediated imatinib resistance and proposed a novel mechanism of JC-010a involving the disrupted co-interaction of SHP2, BCR-ABL, and Hsp90; in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells, JC-010a inhibited both EGFR T790M/C797S mutation and alternate RTK-driven resistance to gefitinib or osimertinib; importantly, we first proposed a novel potential therapeutic strategy for RET-rearranged cancer, we confirmed that JC-010a monotherapy inhibited cell resistance to BLU-667, and JC-010a/BLU-667 combination prolonged anticancer response both in vivo and in vitro cancer models by inhibiting the alternate MET activation-induced RAS/MAPK reactivation, thereby promoting cancer cell apoptosis. These findings suggested that JC-010a was a novel selective SHP2 allosteric inhibitor, and combing JC-010a with current targeted therapy agents provided a promising therapeutic approach for clinical resistant cancers.

Abstract
Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) often remain untreated because they are difficult to heal, caused by reduced skin sensitivity and impaired blood vessel formation. In this study, we propose a novel approach to manage DFUs using a multifunctional hydrogel made from a combination of alginate and gum arabic. To enhance the healing properties of the hydrogel, we immobilized nerve growth factor (NGF), within specially designed mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN). The MSNs were then incorporated into the hydrogel along with carnosine (Car), which further improves the hydrogel's therapeutic properties. The hydrogel containing the immobilized NGF (SiNGF) could control the sustain release of NGF for >21 days, indicating that the target hydrogel (AG-Car/SiNGF) can serve as a suitable reservoir managing diabetic wound regeneration. In addition, Car was able to effectively reduce inflammation and significantly increase angiogenesis compared to the control group. Based on the histological results obtained from diabetic rats, the target hydrogel (AG-Car/SiNGF) reduced inflammation and improved re-epithelialization, angiogenesis, and collagen deposition. Specific staining also confirmed that AG-Car/SiNGF exhibited improved tissue neovascularization, transforming growth factor-beta (TGFβ) expression, and nerve neurofilament. Overall, our research suggests that this newly developed composite system holds promise as a potential treatment for non-healing diabetic wounds.

Abstract
Conventional enzyme-based continuous glucose sensors in interstitial fluid usually rely on dissolved oxygen as the electron-transfer mediator to bring electrons from oxidase to electrode while generating hydrogen peroxide. This may lead to several problems. First, the sensor may provide biased detection results owing to fluctuation of oxygen in interstitial fluid. Second, the polymer coatings that regulate the glucose/oxygen ratio can affect the dynamic response of the sensor. Third, the glucose oxidation reaction continuously produces corrosive hydrogen peroxide, which may compromise the long-term stability of the sensor. Here, we introduce an oxygen-independent nonenzymatic glucose sensor based on water splitting-assisted electrocatalysis for continuous glucose monitoring. For the water splitting reaction (i.e., hydrogen evolution reaction), a negative pretreatment potential is applied to produce a localized alkaline condition at the surface of the working electrode for subsequent nonenzymatic electrocatalytic oxidation of glucose. The reaction process does not require the participation of oxygen; therefore, the problems caused by oxygen can be avoided. The nonenzymatic sensor exhibits acceptable sensitivity, reliability, and biocompatibility for continuous glucose monitoring in hypoxic environments, as shown by the in vitro and in vivo measurements. Therefore, we believe that it is a promising technique for continuous glucose monitoring, especially for clinically hypoxic patients.

Stabilization Activity of Kelp Extract in Ethylene-Propylene Rubber as Safe Packaging Material. Polymers (Basel) 2023; 15:polym15040977. [PMID: 36850259 PMCID: PMC9967782 DOI: 10.3390/polym15040977] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2023] [Revised: 02/12/2023] [Accepted: 02/13/2023] [Indexed: 02/18/2023] Open
Abstract
This paper presents the stabilization effects of the solid extract of kelp (Ascophyllum nodosum) on an engineering elastomer, ethylene-propylene copolymer (EPR), which may be used as packaging material. Progressive increase in additive loadings (0.5, 1, and 2 phr) increases the oxidation induction time for thermally aged rubber at 190 °C from 10 min to 30 min for pristine material and modified polymer by adding 2 phr protection powder. When the studied polymer is γ-irradiated at 50 and 100 kGy, the onset oxidation temperatures increase as a result of blocking the oxidation reactivity of free radicals. The stabilization effect occurs through the activity of alginic acid, which is one of the main active components associated with alginates. The accelerated degradation caused by γ-exposure advances more slowly when the kelp extract is present. The OOT value for the oxidation of EPR samples increases from 130 °C to 165 °C after the γ-irradiation of pristine and modified (2 phr of kelp powder) EPR, respectively. The altered oxidation state of EPR samples by the action of γ-rays in saline serum is faster in neat polymer than in stabilized material. When the probes are placed in physiological serum and irradiated at 25 kGy, the OOT value for neat EPR (145 °C) is much lower than the homologous value for the polymer samples protected by kelp extract (153 °C for the concentration of 0.5 phr, 166 °C for the concentration of 1 phr, and 185 °C for the concentration of 2 phr).

Abstract
Natural polysaccharides (NPs) possess numerous health-promoting effects, such as liver protection, kidney protection, lung protection, neuroprotection, cardioprotection, gastrointestinal protection, anti-oxidation, anti-diabetic, and anti-aging. Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) antioxidant pathway is an important endogenous antioxidant pathway, which plays crucial roles in maintaining human health as its protection against oxidative stress. Accumulating evidence suggested that Nrf2 antioxidant pathway might be one of key regulatory targets for the health-promoting effects of NPs. However, the information concerning regulation of NPs on Nrf2 antioxidant pathway is scattered, and NPs show different regulatory behaviors in their different health-promoting processes. Therefore, in this article, structural features of NPs having regulation on Nrf2 antioxidant pathway are overviewed. Moreover, regulatory effects of NPs on this pathway for health-promoting effects are summarized. Furthermore, structure-activity relationship of NPs for health-promoting effects by regulating the pathway is preliminarily discussed. Otherwise, the prospects on future work for regulation of NPs on this pathway are proposed. This review is beneficial to well-understanding of underlying mechanisms for health-promoting effects of NPs from the view angle of Nrf2 antioxidant pathway, and provides a theoretical basis for the development and utilization of NPs in promoting human health.

Abstract
Current research across the globe still focuses strongly on naturally derived biomaterials in various fields, particularly wound care. There is a need for more effective therapies that will address the physiological deficiencies underlying chronic wound treatment. The use of moist bioactive scaffolds has significantly increased healing rates compared to local and traditional treatments. However, failure to heal or prolonging the wound healing process results in increased financial and social stress imposed on health institutions, caregivers, patients, and their families. The urgent need to identify practical, safe, and cost-effective wound healing scaffolding from natural-based biomaterials that can be introduced into clinical practice is unequivocal. Naturally derived products have long been used in wound healing; however, clinical trial evaluations of these therapies are still in their infancy. Additionally, further well-designed clinical trials are necessary to confirm the efficacy and safety of natural-based biomaterials in treating wounds. Thus, the focus of this review is to describe the current insight, the latest discoveries in selected natural-based wound healing implant products, the possible action mechanisms, and an approach to clinical studies. We explore several tested products undergoing clinical trials as a novel approach to counteract the debilitating effects of impaired wound healing.
