Dual Functionalization of Hyaluronan Dermal Fillers with Vitamin B3: Efficient Combination of Bio-Stimulation Properties with Hydrogel System Resilience Enhancement. Gels 2024; 10:361. [PMID: 38920908 PMCID: PMC11203111 DOI: 10.3390/gels10060361] [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: 05/06/2024] [Revised: 05/17/2024] [Accepted: 05/22/2024] [Indexed: 06/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Hyaluronic acid (HA) hydrogels are commonly used for facial dermal filling and for alternative medical aesthetic purposes. High diversity exists in commercial formulations, notably for the optimization of finished product stability, functionality, and performance. Polyvalent ingredients such as calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) or vitamin B3 (niacinamide) are notably used as bio-stimulants to improve skin quality attributes at the administration site. The aim of the present study was to perform multi-parametric characterization of two novel cross-linked dermal filler formulas (HAR-1 "Instant Refine" and HAR-3 "Maxi Lift") for elucidation of the various functional impacts of vitamin B3 incorporation. Therefore, the HAR products were firstly comparatively characterized in terms of in vitro rheology, cohesivity, injectability, and resistance to chemical or enzymatic degradation (exposition to H2O2, AAPH, hyaluronidases, or xanthine oxidase). Then, the HAR products were assessed for cytocompatibility and in vitro bio-stimulation attributes in a primary dermal fibroblast model. The results showed enhanced resilience of the cohesive HAR hydrogels as compared to JUVÉDERM® VOLBELLA® and VOLUMA® reference products in a controlled degradation assay panel. Furthermore, significant induction of total collagen synthesis in primary dermal fibroblast cultures was recorded for HAR-1 and HAR-3, denoting intrinsic bio-stimulatory effects comparable or superior to those of the Radiesse® and Sculptra™ reference products. Original results of high translational relevance were generated herein using robust and orthogonal experimental methodologies (hydrogel degradation, functional benchmarking) and study designs. Overall, the reported results confirmed the dual functionalization role of vitamin B3 in cross-linked HA dermal fillers, with a significant enhancement of hydrogel system stability attributes and the deployment of potent bio-stimulatory capacities.

Abstract
Nutritional status monitoring plays an important role in the maintenance of human health and disease prevention. Monitoring the intake of vitamins can support the improvement of diet behavior. In this work, a polyaniline (PANI) film-based nonenzymatic electrochemical sensor was prepared to track the vitamin C level in sweat. The PANI film was modified with organic acids (ethylformic acid, malic acid, tartaric acid, and phytic acid). The phytic acid-modified PANI film based on sensor has a wide detection range (0.5-500 μmol·L-1), high sensitivity (665.5 and 326.2 μA·(mmol·L-1)-1·cm-2), and low detection limit (0.17 μmol·L-1) toward vitamin C in sweat. The phytate enhances the band transport between PANI chains, which increases the electrical conductivity of the film to improve the electrochemical properties of the sensor. In addition, we monitored changes of vitamin C levels in human body after taking vitamin C pills by detecting sweat or saliva. The ability to track the pharmacological profile demonstrates the potential of PANI film-based sensors for applications in personalized nutritional intake and tracking. And a simple and portable vitamin C detection system was developed to improve the practicability of the sensor. This work provides an idea for the application of wearable electrochemical sensing devices in nutrition guidance.

Abstract
An ascorbic acid (AA) sensor was constructed based on the fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between CdS quantum dots (CdS QDs) and polydopamine (PDA) to detect trace AA sensitively. FRET occurred due to the broad absorption spectrum of PDA completely overlapped with the narrow emission spectrum of CdS QDs. The fluorescence of CdS QDs was quenched and in the "off" state. When AA was present, the conversion of DA to PDA was hindered and the FRET disappeared, resulting in the fluorescence of CdS QDs in an "on" state. Importantly, the degree of fluorescence recovery of CdS QDs displayed a desirable linear correlation with the concentration of AA in the range of 5.0-100.0 μmol/L, the linear equation is y=0.0119cAA+0.3113, and the detection limit is 1.16 μmol/L (S/N = 3, n = 9). There was almost no interference with common amino acid, glucose and biological sulfhydryl small molecules to AA. Trace amount of AA in vitamin C tablets were determined and satisfactory results were obtained; the recoveries were observed to be 98.01-100.7%.

Abstract
Abstract
Cyclic voltammetry, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance and quantum chemistry calculations were applied to explore the hydrogen bond interactions between ascorbic acid (AA) and glycine. The experimental results demonstrate the existence of hydrogen bonds in AA-glycine system, which has a significant effect on the oxidation peak potentials and currents of AA and the chemical shifts of glycine. The formation of hydrogen bonds between AA and glycine were further confirmed by the density functional theory, quantum theory of atoms in molecules and natural bond orbital analyses.

Abstract
Abstract
The interactions of ascorbic acid (AA) with urea were investigated by using the cyclic voltammetry, density functional theory, atoms in molecules and natural bond orbital analyses. The experimental and theoretical results show that the hydrogen bonds are formed between AA and urea, wherein the mainly interaction sites are the hydrogen atoms on enediol of AA and the oxygen atom on carbonyl of urea. The electrochemical behavior of AA was significantly affected by above interactions.
