Detailed Insight into Photocatalytic Inactivation of Pathogenic Bacteria in the Presence of Visible-Light-Active Multicomponent Photocatalysts. NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 14:409.

Abstract
The use of heterogeneous photocatalysis in biologically contaminated water purification processes still requires the development of materials active in visible light, preferably in the form of thin films. Herein, we report nanotube structures made of TiO2/Ag2O/Au0, TiO2/Ag2O/PtOx, TiO2/Cu2O/Au0, and TiO2/Cu2O/PtOx obtained via one-step anodic oxidation of the titanium-based alloys (Ti94Ag5Au1, Ti94Cu5Pt1, Ti94Cu5Au1, and Ti94Ag5Pt1) possessing high visible light activity in the inactivation process of methicillin-susceptible S. aureus and other pathogenic bacteria-E. coli, Clostridium sp., and K. oxytoca. In the samples made from Ti-based alloys, metal/metal oxide nanoparticles were formed, which were located on the surface and inside the walls of the NTs. The obtained results showed that oxygen species produced at the surface of irradiated photocatalysts and the presence of copper and silver species in the photoactive layers both contributed to the inactivation of bacteria. Photocatalytic inactivation of E. coli, S. aureus, and Clostridium sp. was confirmed via TEM imaging of bacterium cell destruction and the detection of CO2 as a result of bacteria cell mineralization for the most active sample. These results suggest that the membrane ruptures as a result of the attack of active oxygen species, and then, both the membrane and the contents are mineralized to CO2.

Abstract
Metal implants, especially Ni-Ti shape memory alloy (Ni-Ti SMA) implants, have increasingly become the first choice for fracture and massive bone defects after orthopedic bone tumor surgery. In this paper, the internal composition and shape memory properties of Ni-Ti shape memory alloy were studied. In addition, the effects of porous Ni-Ti SMA on osseointegration, and the effects of surface hydrophobicity and hydrophilicity on the osseointegration of Ni-Ti implants were also investigated. In addition, the effect of surface coating modification technology of Ni-Ti shape memory alloy on bone bonding was also studied. Several kinds of Ni-Ti alloy implants commonly used in orthopedic clinic and their advantages and disadvantages were introduced. The surface changes of Ni-Ti alloy implants promote bone fusion, enhance the adhesion of red blood cells and platelets, promote local tissue regeneration and fracture healing. In the field of orthopaedics, the use of Ni-Ti shape memory alloy implants significantly promoted clinical development. Due to the introduction of the coating, the osseointegration and biocompatibility of the implant surface have been enhanced, and the success rate of the implant has been greatly improved.

Abstract
Nickel-titanium (NiTi) alloy has been extensively researched in endodontics, particularly in cleaning and shaping the root canal system. Research advances have primarily focused on the design, shape, and geometry of the NiTi files as well as metallurgy and mechanical properties. So far, extensive investigations have been made surrounding surface and thermomechanical treatments, however, limited work has been done in the realm of surface functionalization to augment its performance in endodontics. This review summarizes the unique characteristics, current use, and latest developments in thermomechanically treated NiTi endodontic files. It discusses recent improvements in nano-engineering and the possibility of customizing the NiTi file surface for added functionalization. Whilst clinical translation of this technology has yet to be fully realized, future research direction will lie in the use of nanotechnology. Nitinol (Nickel Titanium alloy) is widely used to clean/shape root canal system in endodontics. To enhance its performance, various thermo-mechanical and nano-engineering modifications have been performed. This comprehensive review summarizes the latest advances and future trends relating to functionalized NiTi endodontic files.

Titanium dioxide nanotubes increase purinergic receptor P2Y6 expression and activate its downstream PKCα-ERK1/2 pathway in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells under osteogenic induction. Acta Biomater 2023; 157:670-682. [PMID: 36442823 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2022.11.045] [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: 07/27/2022] [Revised: 10/25/2022] [Accepted: 11/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanotubes can improve the osseointegration of pure titanium implants, but this exact mechanism has not been fully elucidated. The purinergic receptor P2Y6 is expressed in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and participates in the regulation of bone metabolism. However, it is unclear as to whether P2Y6 is involved in the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs induced by TiO2 nanotubes. TiO2 nanotubes were prepared on the surface of titanium specimens using the anodizing method and characterized their features. Quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction and western blotting were used to detect the expression of P2Y6, markers of osteogenic differentiation, and PKCα-ERK1/2. A rat femoral defect model was established to evaluate the osseointegration effect of TiO2 nanotubes combined with P2Y6 agonists. The results showed that the average inner diameter of the TiO2 nanotubes increased with an increase in voltage (voltage range of 30-90V), and the expression of P2Y6 in BMSCs could be upregulated by TiO2 nanotubes in osteogenic culture. Inhibition of P2Y6 expression partially inhibited the osteogenic effect of TiO2 nanotubes and downregulated the activity of the PKCα-ERK1/2 pathway. When using in vitro and in vivo experiments, the osteogenic effect of TiO2 nanotubes when combined with P2Y6 agonists was more pronounced. TiO2 nanotubes promoted the P2Y6 expression of BMSCs during osteogenic differentiation and promoted osteogenesis by activating the PKCα-ERK1/2 pathway. The combined application of TiO2 nanotubes and P2Y6 agonists may be an effective new strategy to improve the osseointegration of titanium implants. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanotubes can improve the osseointegration of pure titanium implants, but this exact mechanism has not been fully elucidated. The purinergic receptor P2Y6 is expressed in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and participates in the regulation of bone metabolism. However, it is unclear as to whether P2Y6 is involved in the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs induced by TiO2 nanotubes. For the first time, this study revealed the relationship between TiO2 nanotubes and purine receptor P2Y6, and further explored its mode of action, which may provide clues as to the regulatory role of TiO2 nanotubes on osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs. These findings will help to develop novel methods for guiding material design and biosafety evaluation of nano implants.

Abstract
Active hybrid composites represent a novel class of smart materials used to design morphing surfaces, opening up new applications in the aircraft and automotive industries. The bending of the active hybrid composite is induced by the contraction of electrically activated shape memory alloy (SMA) wires, which are placed with an offset to the neutral axis of the composite. Therefore, the adhesion strength between the SMA wire and the surrounding polymer matrix is crucial to the load transfer and the functionality of the composite. Thus, the interface adhesion strength is of great importance for the performance and the actuation potential of active hybrid composites. In this work, the surface of a commercially available one-way effect NiTi SMA wire with a diameter of 1 mm was structured by selective electrochemical etching that preferably starts at defect sites, leaving the most thermodynamically stable surfaces of the wire intact. The created etch pits lead to an increase in the surface area of the wire and a mechanical interlocking with the polymer, resulting in a combination of adhesive and cohesive failure modes after a pull-out test. Consequently, the force of the first failure determined by an optical stress measurement was increased by more than 3 times when compared to the as-delivered SMA wire. The actuation characterization test showed that approximately the same work capacity could be retrieved from structured SMA wires. Moreover, structured SMA wires exhibited the same shape of the stress-strain curve as the as-delivered SMA wire, and the mechanical performance was not influenced by the structuring process. The austenite start As and austenite finish Af transformation temperatures were also not found to be affected by the structuring process. The formation of etching pits with different geometries and densities was discussed with regard to the kinetics of oxide formation and dissolution.

Abstract
Graphene oxide (GO) has attracted considerable attention for biomedical applications such as drug delivery because of its two-dimensional structure, which provides a large surface area on both sides of the nanosheet. Here, a new method for titanium (Ti) surface modification involving a GO coating and aspirin (A) loading (A/Ti-GO) was developed, and the bioactive effects on mouse osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells were preliminarily studied. The X-ray photoelectron spectrometry indicated new C-O-N, C-Si-O-C, and C-N=C bond formation upon GO coating. Remarkably, the torsion test results showed stable bonding between the GO coating and Ti under a torsional shear force found in clinical settings, in that, there was no tearing or falling off of GO coating from the sample surface. More importantly, through π-π stacking interactions, the release of aspirin loaded on the surface of Ti-GO could sustain for 3 days. Furthermore, the A/Ti-GO surface displayed a significantly higher proliferation rate and differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells into osteoblasts, which was confirmed by a water-soluble tetrazolium salt-8 (WST-8) assay and alkaline phosphatase activity test. Consequently, Ti surface modification involving GO coating and aspirin loading might be a useful contribution to improve the success rate of Ti implants in patients, especially in bone conditions.

Abstract
Strain engineering has been a critical aspect of device design in semiconductor manufacturing for the past decade, but remains relatively unexplored for other applications, such as energy storage. Using mechanical strain as an input parameter to modulate electrochemical potentials of metal oxides opens new opportunities intersecting fields of electrochemistry and mechanics. Here we demonstrate that less than 0.1% strain on a Ni-Ti-O based metal-oxide formed on superelastic shape memory NiTi alloys leads to anodic and cathodic peak potential shifts by up to ~30 mV in an electrochemical cell. Moreover, using the superelastic properties of NiTi to enable strain recovery also recovers the electrochemical potential of the metal oxide, providing mechanistic evidence of strain-modified electrochemistry. These results indicate that mechanical energy can be coupled with electrochemical systems to efficiently design and optimize a new class of strain-modulated energy storage materials.
