A self-supplied hydrogen peroxide and nitric oxide-generating nanoplatform enhances the efficacy of chemodynamic therapy for biofilm eradication. J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 678:20-29. [PMID: 39178688 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2024.08.148] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/21/2024] [Revised: 08/12/2024] [Accepted: 08/19/2024] [Indexed: 08/26/2024]
Abstract
Bacterial biofilms present a profound challenge to global public health, often resulting in persistent and recurrent infections that resist treatment. Chemodynamic therapy (CDT), leveraging the conversion of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to highly reactive hydroxyl radicals (•OH), has shown potential as an antibacterial approach. Nonetheless, CDT struggles to eliminate biofilms due to limited endogenous H2O2 and the protective extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) within biofilms. This study introduces a multifunctional nanoplatform designed to self-supply H2O2 and generate nitric oxide (NO) to overcome these hurdles. The nanoplatform comprises calcium peroxide (CaO2) for sustained H2O2 production, a copper-based metal-organic framework (HKUST-1) encapsulating CaO2, and l-arginine (l-Arg) as a natural NO donor. When exposed to the acidic microenvironment within biofilms, the HKUST-1 layer decomposes, releasing Cu2+ ions and l-Arg, and exposing the CaO2 core to initiate a cascade of reactions producing reactive species such as H2O2, •OH, and superoxide anions (•O2-). Subsequently, H2O2 catalyzes l-Arg to produce NO, which disperses the biofilm and reacts with •O2- to form peroxynitrite, synergistically eradicating bacteria with •OH. In vitro assays demonstrated the nanoplatform's remarkable antibiofilm efficacy against both Gram-positive Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Gram-negative Pseudomonas aeruginosa, significantly reducing bacterial viability and EPS content. In vivo mouse model experiments validated the nanoplatform's effectiveness in eliminating biofilms and promoting infected wound healing without adverse effects. This study represents a breakthrough in overcoming traditional CDT limitations by integrating self-supplied H2O2 with NO's biofilm-disrupting capabilities, offering a promising therapeutic strategy for biofilm-associated infection.

Abstract
Although nanozymes have drawn great attention over the past decade, the activities of peroxidase-like, oxidase-like, and catalase-like nanozymes are often pH dependent with elusive mechanism, which largely restricts their application. Therefore, a systematical discussion on the pH-related catalytic mechanisms of nanozymes together with the methods to overcome this limitation is in need. In this review, various nanozymes exhibiting pH-dependent catalytic activities are collected and the root causes for their pH dependence are comprehensively analyzed. Subsequently, regulatory concepts including catalytic environment reconstruction and direct catalytic activity improvement to break this pH restriction are summarized. Moreover, applications of pH-independent nanozymes in sensing, disease therapy, and pollutant degradation are overviewed. Finally, current challenges and future opportunities on the development of pH-independent nanozymes are suggested. It is anticipated that this review will promote the further design of pH-independent nanozymes and broaden their application range with higher efficiency.

Abstract
Diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) are chronic, refractory wounds caused by diabetic neuropathy, vascular disease, and bacterial infection, and have become one of the most serious and persistent complications of diabetes mellitus because of their high incidence and difficulty in healing. Its malignancy results from a complex microenvironment that includes a series of unfriendly physiological states secondary to hyperglycemia, such as recurrent infections, excessive oxidative stress, persistent inflammation, and ischemia and hypoxia. However, current common clinical treatments, such as antibiotic therapy, insulin therapy, surgical debridement, and conventional wound dressings all have drawbacks, and suboptimal outcomes exacerbate the financial and physical burdens of diabetic patients. Therefore, development of new, effective and affordable treatments for DFU represents a top priority to improve the quality of life of diabetic patients. In recent years, nanozymes-based diabetic wound therapy systems have been attracting extensive interest by integrating the unique advantages of nanomaterials and natural enzymes. Compared with natural enzymes, nanozymes possess more stable catalytic activity, lower production cost and greater maneuverability. Remarkably, many nanozymes possess multienzyme activities that can cascade multiple enzyme-catalyzed reactions simultaneously throughout the recovery process of DFU. Additionally, their favorable photothermal-acoustic properties can be exploited for further enhancement of the therapeutic effects. In this review we first describe the characteristic pathological microenvironment of DFU, then discuss the therapeutic mechanisms and applications of nanozymes in DFU healing, and finally, highlight the challenges and perspectives of nanozyme development for DFU treatment.

Abstract
Catalytic therapy based on nanozymes is promising for the treatment of bacterial infections. However, its therapeutic efficacy is usually restricted by the limited amount of hydrogen peroxide and the weak acidic environment in infected tissues. To solve these issues, we prepared polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)-polyacrylic acid (PAA)-iron oxide (Fe3O4)/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)-zinc peroxide (ZnO2) double-layer electrospun nanofibers (PPF/PZ NFs). In this design, PVA serves as the carrier for ZnO2 nanoparticles (NPs), Fe3O4 NPs, and PAA. The double-layer structure of nanofibers can spatially separate the PAA and ZnO2 to avoid their reaction with each other during preparation and storage, while in the wet wound bed, PVA can dissolve and PAA can provide H+ ions to promote the generation of hydrogen peroxide and subsequent conversion to hydroxyl radicals for bacteria killing. In vitro experimental results demonstrated that PPF/PZ NFs can reduce the methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus by 3.1 log (99.92%). Moreover, PPF/PZ NFs can efficiently treat the bacterial infection in a mouse wound model and promote wound healing with negligible toxicity to animals, indicating their potential use as "plug-and-play" antibacterial wound dressings. This work provides a novel strategy for the construction of double-layer electrospun nanofibers as catalytic wound dressings with hydrogen peroxide/acid self-supplying properties for the efficient treatment of bacterial infections.

Abstract
The high-glycemic microenvironment of diabetic wounds promotes bacterial proliferation, leading to persistent infections and delayed wound healing. This poses a significant threat to human health, necessitating the development of new nanodrug visualization platforms. In this study, we designed and synthesized cascade nano-systems modified with targeted peptide and hyaluronic acid for diabetic infection therapy. The nano-systems were able to target the site of infection using LL-37, and in the microenvironment of wound infection, the hyaluronic acid shell of the nano-systems was degraded by endogenous hyaluronidase. This precise degradation released a cascade of nano-enzymes on the surface of the bacteria, effectively destroying their cytoskeleton. Additionally, the metals in the nano-enzymes provided a photo-thermal effect, accelerating wound healing. The cascade nano-visualization platform demonstrated excellent bactericidal efficacy in both in vitro antimicrobial assays and in vivo diabetic infection models. In conclusion, this nano-system employs multiple approaches including targeting, enzyme-catalyzed therapy, photothermal therapy, and chemodynamic therapy to kill bacteria and promote healing. The Ag@Pt-Au-LYZ/HA-LL-37 formulation shows great potential for the treatment of diabetic wounds.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have great potential for combating pathogenic bacterial infections and are expected to become an alternative to antibiotics. However, organic linkers obstruct and saturate the inorganic nodes of MOF structures, making it challenging to utilize the applied potential of metal centers. Here, we combined controlled ligand decarboxylation with noble metal nanoparticles to rationally remodel MIL-53, resulting in a hybrid nanozyme (AgAu@QMIL-53, AAQM) with excellent multiple enzyme-like activities that both eradicate bacteria and promote diabetic wound healing. Specifically, benefitting from oxidase (OXD)-like and peroxidase (POD)-like activities, AAQM converts oxygen (O2) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) into superoxide anion radicals (O2-) and hydroxyl radicals (OH) to eradicate bacteria. In in vitro antibacterial experiments, AAQM exhibited favorable killing efficacy against Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) (>99 %). Notably, due to its superoxide (SOD)-like activity and outstanding reactive nitrogen species (RNS) elimination capacity, AAQM can produce adequate O2 and alleviate oxidative stress in diabetic wounds. Benefiting from the rational modification of MIL-53, the synthesized hybrid nanozyme can effectively kill bacteria while alleviating oxidative stress and ultimately promote infected diabetic wound healing. Overall, this biomimetic enzyme-catalyzed strategy will bring enlightenment to the design of self-antibacterial agents for efficient disinfection and wound healing simultaneously.

Abstract
Infectious diseases caused by bacterial invasions have imposed a significant global health and economic burden. More worryingly, multidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogenic bacteria born under the abuse of antibiotics have further escalated the status quo. Nowadays, at the crossroads of multiple disciplines such as chemistry, nanoscience and biomedicine, nanozymes, as enzyme-mimicking nanomaterials, not only possess excellent bactericidal ability but also reduce the possibility of inducing resistance. Thus, nanozymes are promising to serve as an alternative to traditional antibiotics. Nanozymes that mimic peroxidase (POD) activity are also known as POD nanozymes. In recent years, POD nanozymes have become one of the most frequently reported and effective nanozymes due to their broad-spectrum bactericidal properties and unique sterilization mechanism. In this review, we introduce the mechanism as well as the classification of POD nanozymes. More importantly, to further improve the antibacterial efficacy of POD nanozymes, we elaborate on three aspects: (1) improving the physicochemical properties; (2) regulating the catalytic microenvironment; and (3) designing multimodel POD nanozymes. In addition, we review the nanosafety of POD nanozymes for discussing their potential toxicity. Finally, the remaining challenges of POD nanozymes and possible future directions are discussed. This work provides a systematic summary of POD nanozymes and hopefully contributes to the early clinical translation.

The mechanism of the pH-sensitive effect of the bR electrode is explained, which generates a transient photovoltage under light irradiation and a negative photovoltage when the lamp is turned off. Since the photoelectric signal of bR is affected by different pH values, the photovoltage is changed by adjusting the pH value. The ratio (Vn/Vp) of negative photovoltage (Vn) to positive photovoltage (Vp) has a good linear relationship (R2 = 0.9911) in the pH range of 4.0-10.0. In vitro experiments using rats as a model confirmed that this wearable pH biometer can monitor pH changes that occur in wound infection.
