Multi-Omics Study on Molecular Mechanisms of Single-Atom Fe-Doped Two-Dimensional Conjugated Phthalocyanine Framework for Photocatalytic Antibacterial Performance. Molecules 2024; 29:1601. [PMID: 38611880 PMCID: PMC11013413 DOI: 10.3390/molecules29071601] [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: 02/19/2024] [Revised: 03/21/2024] [Accepted: 03/27/2024] [Indexed: 04/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Currently, photocatalysis of the two-dimensional (2D) conjugated phthalocyanine framework with a single Fe atom (CPF-Fe) has shown efficient photocatalytic activities for the removal of harmful effluents and antibacterial activity. Their photocatalytic mechanisms are dependent on the redox reaction-which is led by the active species generated from the photocatalytic process. Nevertheless, the molecular mechanism of CPF-Fe antimicrobial activity has not been sufficiently explored. In this study, we successfully synthesized CPF-Fe with great broad-spectrum antibacterial properties under visible light and used it as an antibacterial agent. The molecular mechanism of CPF-Fe against Escherichia coli and Salmonella enteritidis was explored through multi-omics analyses (transcriptomics and metabolomics correlation analyses). The results showed that CPF-Fe not only led to the oxidative stress of bacteria by generating large amounts of h+ and ROS but also caused failure in the synthesis of bacterial cell wall components as well as an osmotic pressure imbalance by disrupting glycolysis, oxidative phosphorylation, and TCA cycle pathways. More surprisingly, CPF-Fe could disrupt the metabolism of amino acids and nucleic acids, as well as inhibit their energy metabolism, resulting in the death of bacterial cells. The research further revealed the antibacterial mechanism of CPF-Fe from a molecular perspective, providing a theoretical basis for the application of CPF-Fe photocatalytic antibacterial nanomaterials.

Yang J, Luo H, Zhu X, Cai L, Zhou L, Ruan H, Chen J. Copper-doped bismuth oxychloride nanosheets assembled into sphere-like morphology for improved photocatalytic inactivation of drug-resistant bacteria. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 912:168916. [PMID: 38036130 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.168916] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/11/2023] [Revised: 11/22/2023] [Accepted: 11/25/2023] [Indexed: 12/02/2023]
Abstract
The devastating microbiological contamination as well as emerging drug-resistant bacteria has posed severe threats to the ecosystem and public health, which propels the continuous exploitation of safe yet efficient disinfection products and technology. Here, copper doping engineered bismuth oxychloride (Cu-BiOCl) nanocomposite with a hierarchical spherical structure was successfully prepared. It was found that due to the exposure of abundant active sites for the adsorption of both bacteria cells and molecular oxygen in the structure, the obtained Cu-BiOCl with nanosheets assembled into sphere-like morphology exhibited remarkable photocatalytic antibacterial effects. In particular, compared to the pure BiOCl, composite Cu-BiOCl possessed improved antibacterial effects against Escherichia coli (E. coli), Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), and Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). The combination of physicochemical characterizations and theoretical calculations has revealed that copper doping significantly promoted the light absorbance, inhibited the recombination of electron-hole pairs, and enhanced molecular oxygen adsorption, which resulted in more generation of active species including reactive oxygen species (ROS) and h+ to achieve superior photocatalytic bacterial inactivation. Finally, transcriptome analysis on MRSA pinpointed photocatalytic inactivation induced by Cu-BiOCl may retard largely the development of drug-resistance. Therefore, the built spherical Cu-BiOCl nanocomposite has provided an ecofriendly, economical and robust strategy for the efficient removal of drug-resistant bacteria with promising potentials for environmental and healthcare utilizations.
