[PMID: 39022883 DOI: 10.1002/adma.202406156] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2024] [Revised: 07/07/2024] [Indexed: 07/20/2024]
Abstract
Polymyxins have been regarded as an efficient therapeutic against many life-threatening, multidrug resistant Gram-negative bacterial infections; however, the cytotoxicity and emergence of drug resistance associated with polymyxins have greatly hindered their clinical potential. Herein, the reaction-induced self-assembly (RISA) of polymyxins and natural aldehydes in aqueous solution is presented. The resulting assemblies effectively mask the positively charged nature of polymyxins, reducing their cytotoxicity. Moreover, the representative PMBA4 (composed of polymyxin B (PMB) and (E)-2-heptenal (A4)) assemblies demonstrate enhanced binding to Gram-negative bacterial outer membranes and exhibit multiple antimicrobial mechanisms, including increased membrane permeability, elevated bacterial metabolism, suppression of quorum sensing, reduced ATP synthesis, and potential reduction of bacterial drug resistance. Remarkably, PMBA4 assemblies reverse drug resistance in clinically isolated drug-resistant strains of Gram-negative bacteria, demonstrating exceptional efficacy in preventing and eradicating bacterial biofilms. PMBA4 assemblies efficiently eradicate Gram-negative bacterial biofilm infections in vivo and alleviate inflammatory response. This RISA strategy offers a practical and clinically applicable approach to minimize side effects, reverse drug resistance, and prevent the emergence of resistance associated with free polymyxins.

Cetyltrimethylammonium-chloride assisted in situ metabolic incorporation of nano-sized ROS-generating cascade-reaction containers in Gram-positive and Gram-negative peptidoglycan layers for the control of bacterially-induced sepsis. Acta Biomater 2024; 181:347-361. [PMID: 38702010 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2024.04.045] [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: 01/26/2024] [Revised: 04/03/2024] [Accepted: 04/28/2024] [Indexed: 05/06/2024]
Abstract
Cascade-reaction containers generating reactive oxygen species (ROS) as an alternative for antibiotic-based strategies for bacterial infection control, require endogenous oxygen-sources and ROS-generation close to or preferably inside target bacteria. Here, this is achieved by cetyltrimethylammonium-chloride (CTAC) assisted in situ metabolic labeling and incorporation of mesoporous SiO2-nanoparticles, dual-loaded with glucose-oxidase and Fe3O4-nanoparticles as cascade-reaction containers, inside bacterial cell walls. First, azide-functionalized d-alanine (D-Ala-N3) was inserted in cell wall peptidoglycan layers of growing Gram-positive pathogens. In Gram-negatives, this could only be achieved after outer lipid-membrane permeabilization, using a low concentration of CTAC. Low concentrations of CTAC had no adverse effect on in vitro blood clotting or hemolysis nor on the health of mice when blood-injected. Next, dibenzocyclooctyne-polyethylene-glycol modified, SiO2-nanoparticles were in situ click-reacted with d-Ala-N3 in bacterial cell wall peptidoglycan layers. Herewith, a two-step cascade-reaction is facilitated inside bacteria, in which glucose-oxidase generates H2O2 at endogenously-available glucose concentrations, while subsequently Fe3O4-nanoparticles catalyze generation of •OH from the H2O2 generated. Generation of •OH inside bacterial cell walls by dual-loaded mesoporous SiO2-nanoparticles yielded more effective in vitro killing of both planktonic Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria suspended in 10 % plasma than SiO2-nanoparticles solely loaded with glucose-oxidase. Gram-positive or Gram-negative bacterially induced sepsis in mice could be effectively treated by in situ pre-treatment with tail-vein injected CTAC and d-Ala-N3, followed by injection of dual-loaded cascade-reaction containers without using antibiotics. This makes in situ metabolic incorporation of cascade-reaction containers as described attractive for further investigation with respect to the control of other types of infections comprising planktonic bacteria. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: In situ metabolic-incorporation of cascade-reaction-containers loaded with glucose-oxidase and Fe3O4 nanoparticles into bacterial cell-wall peptidoglycan is described, yielding ROS-generation from endogenous glucose, non-antibiotically killing bacteria before ROS inactivates. Hitherto, only Gram-positives could be metabolically-labeled, because Gram-negatives possess two lipid-membranes. The outer membrane impedes direct access to the peptidoglycan. This problem was solved by outer-membrane permeabilization using a quaternary-ammonium compound. Several studies on metabolic-labeling perform crucial labeling steps during bacterial-culturing that in real-life should be part of a treatment. In situ metabolic-incorporation as described, can be applied in well-plates during in vitro experiments or in the body as during in vivo animal experiments. Surprisingly, metabolic-incorporation proceeded unhampered in blood and a murine, bacterially-induced sepsis could be well treated.

Abstract
Biofilms of the foodborne pathogen Staphylococcus aureus show improved resistance to antibiotics and are difficult to eliminate. To enhance antibacteria and biofilm dispersion via extracellular matrix diffusion, a new lipid nanoparticle was prepared, which employed a mixture of phospholipids and a 0.8% surfactin shell. In the lipid nanoparticle, 31.56 μg mL-1 of erythromycin was encapsulated. The lipid nanoparticle size was approximately 52 nm and the zeta-potential was -67 mV, which was measured using a Marvin laser particle size analyzer. In addition, lipid nanoparticles significantly dispersed the biofilms of S. aureus W1, CICC22942, and CICC 10788 on the surface of stainless steel, reducing the total viable count of bacteria in the biofilms by 103 CFU mL-1 . In addition, the lipid nanoparticle can remove polysaccharides and protein components from the biofilm matrix. The results of laser confocal microscopy showed that the lipid nanoparticles effectively killed residual bacteria in the biofilms. Thus, to thoroughly eliminate biofilms on material surfaces in food factories to avoid repeated contamination, drug-lipid nanoparticles present a suitable method to achieve this.

Abstract
Biofilm-associated infections (BAIs) have been considered a major threat to public health, which induce persistent infections and serious complications. The poor penetration of antibacterial agents in biofilm significantly limits the efficiency of combating BAIs. Magnetic urchin-like core-shell nanospheres of Fe3O4@Bi2S3 were developed for physically destructing biofilm and inducing bacterial eradication via reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and innate immunity regulation. The urchin-like magnetic nanospheres with sharp edges of Fe3O4@Bi2S3 exhibited propeller-like rotation to physically destroy biofilm under a rotating magnetic field (RMF). The mild magnetic hyperthermia improved the generation of ROS and enhanced bacterial eradication. Significantly, the urchin-like nanostructure and generated ROS could stimulate macrophage polarization toward the M1 phenotype, which could eradicate the persistent bacteria with a metabolic inactivity state through phagocytosis, thereby promoting the recovery of implant infection and inhibiting recurrence. Thus, the design of magnetic-driven sharp-shaped nanostructures of Fe3O4@Bi2S3 provided enormous potential in combating biofilm infections.

Abstract
The presence of bacterial biofilms has presented a significant challenge to human health. This study presents the development of biofilm microenvironment-responsive polymeric micelles as a novel approach to address the challenges posed by bacterial biofilms. These micelles are composed of two key components: a zwitterionic component, inspired by protein isoelectric points, containing balanced quantities of primary amines and carboxylic groups that undergo a positive charge transformation in acidic microenvironments, and a hydrophobic triclosan conjugate capable of releasing triclosan in the presence of bacterial lipases. Through the synergistic combination of pH-responsiveness and lipase-responsiveness, we have significantly improved drug penetration into biofilms and enhanced its efficacy in killing bacteria. With their remarkable drug-loading capacity and the ability to specifically target and eliminate bacteria within biofilms, these zwitterionic polymeric micelles hold great promise as an effective alternative for treating biofilm-associated infections. Their unique properties enable efficient drug delivery and heightened effectiveness against biofilm-related infections.

Abstract
The vagina has been regarded as a crucial route for drug delivery. Despite the wide range of available vaginal dosage forms for vaginal infection control, poor drug absorptivity remains a significant challenge due to various biological barriers in the vagina, such as mucus, epithelium, immune systems, and others. To overcome these barriers, different types of vaginal drug delivery systems (VDDSs), with outstanding mucoadhesive, mucus-penetrating properties, have been designed to enhance the absorptivity of vagina-administered agents in the past decades. In this Review, we introduce a general understanding of vaginal administration, its biological barriers, the commonly used VDDSs, such as nanoparticles and hydrogels, and their applications in controlling microbe-associated vaginal infections. Additionally, further challenges and concerns regarding the design of VDDSs will be discussed.

Abstract
New antimicrobial strategies are urgently needed to meet the challenges posed by the emergence of drug-resistant bacteria and bacterial biofilms. This work reports the facile synthesis of antimicrobial dynamic covalent nano-networks (aDCNs) composing antibiotics bearing multiple primary amines, polyphenols, and a cross-linker acylphenylboronic acid. Mechanistically, the iminoboronate bond drives the formation of aDCNs, facilitates their stability, and renders them highly responsive to stimuli, such as low pH and high H2O2 levels. Besides, the representative A1B1C1 networks, composed of polymyxin B1(A1), 2-formylphenylboronic acid (B1), and quercetin (C1), inhibit biofilm formation of drug-resistant Escherichia coli, eliminate the mature biofilms, alleviate macrophage inflammation, and minimize the side effects of free polymyxins. Excellent bacterial eradication and inflammation amelioration efficiency of A1B1C1 networks are also observed in a peritoneal infection model. The facile synthesis, excellent antimicrobial performance, and biocompatibility of these aDCNs potentiate them as a much-needed alternative in current antimicrobial pipelines.

Abstract
Drug combination provides an efficient pathway to combat drug resistance in bacteria and bacterial biofilms. However, the facile methodology to construct the drug combinations and their applications in nanocomposites is still lacking. Here the two-tailed antimicrobial amphiphiles (T2 A2 ) composed of nitric oxide (NO)-donor (diethylenetriamine NONOate, DN) and various natural aldehydes are reported. T2 A2 self-assemble into nanoparticles due to their amphiphilic nature, with remarkably low critical aggregation concentration. The representative cinnamaldehyde (Cin)-derived T2 A2 (Cin-T2 A2 ) assemblies demonstrate excellent bactericidal efficacy, notably higher than free Cin and free DN. Cin-T2 A2 assemblies kill multidrug-resistant staphylococci and eradicate their biofilms via multiple mechanisms, as proved by mechanism studies, molecular dynamics simulations, proteomics, and metabolomics. Furthermore, Cin-T2 A2 assemblies rapidly eradicate bacteria and alleviate inflammation in the subsequent murine infection models. Together, the Cin-T2 A2 assemblies may provide an efficient, non-antibiotic alternative in combating the ever-increasing threat of drug-resistant bacteria and their biofilms.

Abstract
Diabetic ulcers have received much attention in recent years due to their high incidence and mortality, motivating the scientific community to develop various strategies for such chronic disease treatments. However, the therapeutic outcome of these approaches is highly compromised by invasive bacteria and a severe inflammatory microenvironment. To overcome these dilemmas, microenvironment-responsive self-delivery glucose oxidase@manganese sulfide (GOx@MnS) nanoparticles (NPs) are developed by one-step biomineralization. When they encounter the high glucose level in the ulcer site, GOx particles catalyze glucose to decrease the local pH and trigger the steady release of both manganese ions (Mn2+) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S). Mn2+ reacts with hydrogen peroxide to generate hydroxyl radicals for the elimination of bacterial infection; meanwhile, H2S is able to suppress the inflammatory response and accelerate diabetic wound healing through macrophage polarization. The excellent biocompatibility, strong bactericidal activity, and considerable immunomodulatory effect promise GOx@MnS NPs have great therapeutic potential for diabetic wound treatment.

Abstract
Prodrug nanoassemblies combine the advantages of prodrug and nanomedicines, offering great potential in targeting the lesion sites and specific on-demand drug release, maximizing the therapeutic performance while minimizing their side effects. However, there is still lacking a facile pathway to prepare the lipid prodrug nanoassemblies (LPNAs). Herein, we report the LPNAs via the dynamic covalent boronate between catechol and boronic acid. The resulting LPNAs possess properties like drug loading in a dynamic covalent manner, charge reversal in an acidic microenvironment, and specific drug release at an acidic and/or oxidative microenvironment. Our methodology enables the encapsulation and delivery of three model drugs: ciprofloxacin, bortezomib, and miconazole. Moreover, the LPNAs are often more efficient in eradicating pathogens or cancer cells than their free counterparts, both in vitro and in vivo. Together, our LPNAs with intriguing properties may boost the development of drug delivery and facilitate their clinical applications.

Abstract
To address the issue posed by drug-resistant bacteria and inspired by natural antimicrobial enzymes, we report the atomically doped copper on guanine-derived nanosheets (G-Cu) that possess the integrated catalytic cascade property of glucose oxidase and peroxidase, yielding free radicals to eliminate drug-resistant bacteria upon light irradiation. Density functional theory calculations demonstrate that copper could notably promote oxygen activation and H2O2 splitting on the G-Cu complexes. Further all-atom simulation and experimental data indicate that the lysis of bacteria is mainly induced by cell membrane damage and the elevation of intracellular reactive oxygen species. Lastly, the G-Cu complexes efficiently eliminate the staphylococci in the infected wounds and accelerate their closure in a murine model, with negligible side effects on the normal tissues. Therefore, our G-Cu complexes may provide an efficient nonantibiotic alternative to the current treatments for bacterial infections.

Abstract
Developing nature-inspired nanomaterials with enzymatic activity is essential in combating bacterial biofilms. Here, it is reported that incorporating the carboxylic acid in phenolic/Fe nano-networks can efficiently manipulate their peroxidase-like activity via the acidic microenvironment and neighboring effect of the carboxyl group. The optimal gallic acid/Fe (GA/Fe) nano-networks demonstrate highly enzymatic activity in catalyzing H2 O2 into oxidative radicals, damaging the cell membrane and extracellular DNA in Streptococcus mutans biofilms. Theoretical calculation suggests that the neighboring carboxyl group can aid the H2 O2 adsorption, free radical generation, and catalyst reactivation, resulting in superb catalytic efficiency. Further all-atom simulation suggests the peroxidation of lipids can increase the cell membrane fluidity and permeability. Also, GA/Fe nano-networks show great potential in inhibiting tooth decay and treating other biofilm-associated diseases without affecting the commensal oral flora. This strategy provides a facile and scale-up way to prepare the enzyme-like materials and manipulate their enzymatic activity for biomedical applications.
