[PMID: 39053816 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2024.07.032] [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: 04/08/2024] [Revised: 06/25/2024] [Accepted: 07/18/2024] [Indexed: 07/27/2024]
Abstract
Indocyanine green (ICG), the only near-infrared (NIR) dye approved for clinical use, has received increasing attention as a theranostic agent wherein diagnosis (fluorescence) is combined with therapy (phototherapy), but suffers rapid hepatic clearance, poor photostability, and limited accumulation at tumor sites. Here we report that dimerized ICG can self-assemble to form zwitterionic nanoparticles (ZN-dICG), which generate fluorescence self-quenching but exhibit superior photothermal and photodynamic properties over ICG. The zwitterionic moieties confer ZN-dICG an ultralow critical micelle concentration and high colloidal stability with low non-specific binding in vivo. In addition, ZN-dICG can respond to the over-generated reactive oxygen species (ROSs) and dissociate to restore NIR fluorescence of ICG, amplifying the sensitivity via albumin binding for low-background imaging of tumors. Following systemic administration, ZN-dICG accumulated in tumors of xenograft-bearing mice for imaging primary and metastatic tumors, and induced tumor ablation under laser irradiation. The discovery of ZN-dICG would contribute to the design of translational phototheranostic platform with high biocompatibility. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Indocyanine green (ICG) has been extensively studied as a phototheranostic agent that combines imaging with phototherapies, but it suffers from rapid hepatic clearance, poor photostability, and limited accumulation at tumor sites. Here, we report a strategy to construct ICG dimers (ICG-tk-ICG) by conjugating two ICG molecules via a thioketal bond, which can self-assemble into zwitterionic nanoparticles (ZN-dICG) at ultralow critical micelle concentrations, exhibiting superior photothermal and photodynamic properties over ICG. ZN-dICG responds to the over-generated ROS in tumors and dissociates to restore the NIR fluorescence of ICG, enhancing the sensitivity via albumin binding for low-background imaging of tumors. This study offers a supramolecular strategy that may potentiate the clinical translation of ICG in imaging-guided cancer phototherapy.

Abstract
Combining photodynamic antimicrobials with nonwovens is prospective. However, common photosensitizers still have drawbacks such as poor photoactivity and the inability to charge. In this study, a photodynamic and high-efficiency antimicrobial protective material was prepared by grafting bis benzophenone-structured 4,4-terephthaloyl diphthalic anhydride (TDPA) photosensitizer, and antimicrobial agent chlorogenic acid (CA) onto spunbond-meltblown-spunbond (SMS) membranes. The charging rates for ·OH and H2O2 were 6377.89 and 913.52 μg/g/h. The light absorption transients structural storage remained above 69% for 1 month. High electrical capacity remained after seven cycles indicating its rechargeability and recyclability. The SMS/TDPA/CA membrane has excellent bactericidal performance when under illumination or lightless conditions, and the bactericidal efficiency of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus reached over 99%. The construction of self-disinfection textiles based on the photodynamic strategies proposed in this paper is constructive for expanding and promoting the application of textile materials in the medical field.

Abstract
Accurate detection of bacterial antibiotic sensitivity is crucial for theranostics and the containment of antibiotic-resistant infections. However, the intricate task of detecting and quantifying the antibiotic-induced changes in the bacterial cytoplasmic membrane, and their correlation with other metabolic pathways leading to antibiotic resistance, poses significant challenges. Using a novel class of 4-aminophthalimide (4AP)-based fluorescent dyes with precisely tailored alkyl chains, namely 4AP-C9 and 4AP-C13, we quantify stress-mediated alterations in E. coli membranes. Leveraging the unique depth-dependent positioning and environment-sensitive fluorescence properties of these dyes, we detect antibiotic-induced membrane damage through single-cell imaging and monitoring the fluorescence peak maxima difference ratio (PMDR) of the dyes within the bacterial membrane, complemented by other methods. The correlation between the ROS-induced cytoplasmic membrane damage and the PMDR of dyes quantifies sensitivity against bactericidal antibiotics, which correlates to antibiotic-induced lipid peroxidation. Significantly, our findings largely extend to clinical isolates of E. coli and other ESKAPE pathogens like K. pneumoniae and Enterobacter subspecies. Our data reveal that 4AP-Cn probes can potentially act as precise scales to detect antibiotic-induced membrane damage ("thinning") occurring at a subnanometer scale through the quantification of dyes' PMDR, making them promising membrane dyes for rapid detection of bacterial antibiotic resistance, distinguishing sensitive and resistant infections with high specificity in a clinical setup.

Abstract
Bacterial infection has always posed a severe threat to public health. Gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) exhibit exceptional biocompatibility and hold immense potential in biomedical applications. However, their antibacterial effectiveness is currently unsatisfactory. Herein, a chiral antibacterial agent with high stability was prepared by the modification of Au NPs with d-cysteine with the assistance of polyethylene glycol (PEG). The as-synthesized d-cysteine/PEG-Au NPs (D/P-Au NPs) exhibited a stronger (99.5-99.9%) and more stable (at least 14 days) antibacterial performance against Gram-negative (Escherichia coli and Listeria monocytogenes) and Gram-positive (Salmonella enteritidis and Staphylococcus aureus) bacteria, compared with other groups. The analysis of the antibacterial mechanism revealed that the D/P-Au NPs mainly affected the assembly of ribosomes, the biosynthesis of amino acids and proteins, as well as the DNA replication and mismatch repair, ultimately leading to bacterial death, which is significantly different from the mechanism of reactive oxygen species-activated metallic antibacterial NPs. In particular, the D/P-Au NPs were shown to effectively accelerate the healing of S. aureus-infected wounds in mice to a rate comparable to or slightly higher than that of vancomycin. This work provides a novel approach to effectively design chiral antibacterial agents for bacterial infection treatment.

Abstract
Infection and oxidative stress seriously hinder the healing of diabetic wounds, resulting in various serious health and clinical problems. Herein, a sustainable biological hydrogen (H2)-producing hyaluronic acid-based hydrogel patch (HAP-Chl) was constructed by loading an imidazolium-based poly(ionic liquid) (PIL) flocculated live Chlorella as a diabetic wound dressing. The PIL can flocculate Chlorella through electrostatic interactions between PIL and Chlorella to form Chlorella agglomerates, endowing the Chlorella in the central agglomerates with the ability to continuously produce H2 for 24 h under mild conditions. Combining the membrane disruption-related bactericidal mechanism of PIL and the antioxidant properties of the produced H2, HAP-Chl was determined to be antibacterial and antioxidant. In addition to exhibiting biocompatible and nontoxic activities, subsequent Staphylococcus aureus-infected chronic wound studies revealed that HAP-Chl is capable of promoting the healing of chronic wounds by effectively killing bacteria, reducing extensive ROS, relieving inflammation, and promoting the deposition of mature collagen and angiogenesis. This study provides a new strategy for constructing an in situ sustainable H2-producing hydrogel, enabling the formation of novel antibacterial and antioxidant material platforms with potential for wound dressing applications.

A General Strategy for Enhanced Photodynamic Antimicrobial Therapy with Perylenequinonoid Photosensitizers Using a Macrocyclic Supramolecular Carrier. Adv Healthc Mater 2024:e2401778.

Abstract
Perylenequinonoid natural products are a class of photosensitizers (PSs) that exhibit high reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and excellent activity for Type I/Type II dual photodynamic therapy. However, their limited activity against gram-negative bacteria and poor water solubility significantly restrict their potential in broad-spectrum photodynamic antimicrobial therapy (PDAT). Herein, a general approach to overcome the limitations of perylenequinonoid photosensitizers (PQPSs) in PDAT by utilizing a macrocyclic supramolecular carrier is presented. Specifically, AnBox·4Cl, a water-soluble cationic cyclophane, is identified as a universal macrocyclic host for PQPSs such as elsinochrome C, hypocrellin A, hypocrellin B, and hypericin, forming 1:1 host-guest complexes with high binding constants (≈107 m -1) in aqueous solutions. Each AnBox·4Cl molecule carries four positive charges that promote strong binding with the membrane of gram-negative bacteria. As a result, the AnBox·4Cl-PQPS complexes can effectively anchor on the surfaces of gram-negative bacteria, while the PQPSs alone cannot. In vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrate that these supramolecular PSs have excellent water solubility and high ROS generation, with broad-spectrum PDAT effect against both gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. This work paves a new path to enhance PDAT by showcasing an efficient approach to improve PQPSs' water solubility and killing efficacy for gram-negative bacteria.

Abstract
Purpose Recently, Single-atom-loaded carbon-based material is a new environmentally friendly and stable photothermal antibacterial nanomaterial. It is still a great challenge to achieve single-atom loading on carbon materials. Materials and Methods Herein, We doped single-atom Ag into ZIF-8-derived porous carbon to obtain Ag-doped ZIF-8-derived porous carbon(AgSA-ZDPC). The as-prepared samples were characterized by XRD, XPS, FESEM, EDX, TEM, and HAADF-STEM which confirmed that the single-atom Ag successfully doped into the porous carbon. Further, the photothermal properties and antimicrobial activity of AgSA-ZDPC have been tested. Results The results showed that the temperature increased by 30 °C after near-infrared light irradiation(1 W/cm2) for 5 min which was better than ZIF-8-derived porous carbon(ZDPC). It also exhibits excellent photothermal stability after the laser was switched on and off 5 times. When the AgSA-ZDPC concentration was greater than 50 µg/mL and the near-infrared irradiation was performed for 5 min, the growth inhibition of S. aureus and E. coli was almost 100%. Conclusion This work provides a simple method for the preparation of single-atom Ag-doped microporous carbon which has potential antibacterial application.

Abstract
Bacterial infection is a global health problem that closely related to various diseases threatening human life. Although antibiotic therapy has been the mainstream treatment method for various bacterial infectious diseases for decades, the increasing emergence of bacterial drug resistance has brought enormous challenges to the application of antibiotics. Therefore, developing novel antibacterial strategies is of great importance. By producing reactive oxygen species (ROS) with photosensitizers (PSs) under light irradiation, antibacterial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) has emerged as a non-invasive and promising approach for treating bacterial infections without causing drug resistance. However, the insufficient therapeutic penetration, poor hydrophilicity, and poor biocompatibility of traditional PSs greatly limit the efficacy of aPDT. Recently, studies have found that nanomaterials with characteristics of favorable photocatalytic activity, surface plasmonic resonance, easy modification, and high drug loading capacity can improve the therapeutic efficacy of aPDT. In this review, we aim to provide a comprehensive understanding of the mechanism of nanomaterials-mediated aPDT and summarize the representative nanomaterials in aPDT, either as PSs or carriers for PSs. In addition, the combination of advanced nanomaterials-mediated aPDT with other therapies, including targeted therapy, gas therapy, and multidrug resistance (MDR) therapy, is reviewed. Also, the concerns and possible solutions of nanomaterials-based aPDT are discussed. Overall, this review may provide theoretical basis and inspiration for the development of nanomaterials-based aPDT.

Abstract
Single-molecule-based synergistic phototherapy holds great potential for antimicrobial treatment. Herein, we report an orthogonal molecular cationization strategy to improve the reactive oxygen species (ROS) and hyperthermia generation of heptamethine cyanine (Cy7) for photodynamic and photothermal treatments of bacterial infections. Cationic pyridine (Py) is introduced at the meso‑position of the asymmetric Cy7 with intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) to construct an atypical electron-transfer triad, which reduces ΔES1-S0, circumvents rapid charge recombination, and simultaneously enhances intersystem crossing (ISC) based on spin-orbit charge-transfer ISC (SOCT-ISC) mechanism. This unique molecular construction produces anti-Stokes luminescence (ASL) because the rotatable CN bond enriched in high vibrational-rotational energy levels improves hot-band absorption (HBA) efficiency. The obtained triad exhibits higher singlet oxygen quantum yield and photothermal conversion efficiency compared to indocyanine green (ICG) under irradiation above 800 nm. Cationization with Py enables the triad to target bacteria via intense electrostatic attractions, as well as biocidal property against a broad spectrum of bacteria in the dark. Moreover, the triad under irradiation can enhance biofilm eradication performance in vitro and statistically improve healing efficacy of MRSA-infected wound in mice. Thus, this work provides a simple but effective strategy to design small-molecule photosensitizers for synergistic phototherapy of bacterial infections. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: We developed an orthogonal molecular cationization strategy to enhance the reactive oxygen species and thermal effects of heptamethine cyanine (Cy7) for photodynamic and photothermal treatments of bacterial infections. Specifically, cationic pyridine (Py) was introduced at the meso‑position of the asymmetric Cy7 to construct an atypical electron-transfer triad, which reduced ΔES1-S0, circumvented rapid charge recombination, and simultaneously enhanced intersystem crossing (ISC). This triad, with a rotatable CN bond, produced anti-Stokes luminescence due to hot-band absorption. The triad enhanced antimicrobial performance and statistically improved the healing efficacy of MRSA-infected wounds in mice. This site-specific cationization strategy may provide insights into the design of small molecule-based photosensitizers for synergistic phototherapy of bacterial infections.

Abstract
Hypoxia and infection are urgent clinical problems in chronic diabetic wounds. Herein, living Chlorella-loaded poly(ionic liquid)-based microneedles (PILMN-Chl) are constructed for microacupuncture oxygen and antibacterial therapy against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)-infected chronic diabetic wounds. The PILMN-Chl can stably and continuously produce oxygen for more than 30 h due to the photosynthesis of the loaded self-supported Chlorella. By combining the barrier penetration capabilities of microneedles, the continuous and sufficient oxygen supply of Chlorella, and the sterilization activities of PIL, the PILMN-Chl can accelerate chronic diabetic wounds in vivo by topical targeted sterilization and hypoxia relief in deep parts of wounds. Thus, the self-oxygen produced microneedles modality may provide a promising and facile therapeutic strategy for treating chronic, hypoxic, and infected diabetic wounds.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are emerging porous materials that can serve as carriers of photosensitizers and photothermal agents. Meanwhile, a large number of active sites in MOFs endow them with the characteristics of modification by postsynthetic modification. Herein, a dual-modal PDT/PTT therapeutic agent HMIL-121-acriflavine-tetrakis (4-amoniophenyl) porphyrin (HMIL-ACF-Por), prepared by the postsynthetic modification of the MOF (HMIL-121), was reported for antibacterial applications. The prepared HMIL-ACF-Por enables the generation of abundant reactive oxygen species, including the superoxide anion radical (O2-) and singlet oxygen (1O2), and thermal energy under 808 nm NIR laser irradiation. HMIL-ACF-Por showed good antibacterial ability against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus in vitro. Meanwhile, HMIL-ACF-Por can effectively inhibit the inflammatory response caused by bacterial infection and accelerate S. aureus-infected wound healing under laser irradiation owing to the synergistic effect of photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT). These results demonstrate that HMIL-ACF-Por is a promising PDT/PTT therapeutic agent. This work also contributes to offering an effective solution for treating bacterial infections and promotes the application of MOF-based materials in biomedicine.

Abstract
Antimicrobial peptide mimics have been used to kill bacteria and construct antibacterial materials. Precise design and construction of chemical structure are essential for easy access to highly effective antimicrobial peptide mimics. Herein, cationic guanidinium-based polymers (PGXs) with varying hydrophobic structures were synthesized to explore the structure and antibacterial activity relationship of antimicrobial peptide mimics and to construct antibacterial implants. The effect of the hydrophobic chemical structure, including carbon chain length and configuration, on the antimicrobial activities against both Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus was investigated. The antibacterial activities of PGXs improved with increasing alkyl chain length, and PGXs with a straight-chain hydrophobic structure exhibited better bactericidal activities than those with cyclic alkane and aromatic hydrocarbon. Furthermore, PGXs grafted with poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS-PGXs) showed a similar bactericidal change tendency of PGXs in solution. Additionally, the PDMS-PGXs showed potent antibiofilm performance in vitro, which can inhibit bacterial infection in vivo as subcutaneous implants. This study may propose a basis for the precise design and construction of antibacterial materials and provide a promising way of designing biomedical devices and implants with bacterial infection-combating activities.

Abstract
Diabetes-related chronic wounds characterized by hyperglycemia and weak alkaline milieu provide numerous advantages for bacteria growth and biofilm formation, setting a myriad of stumbling blocks for wound healing. Therefore, reshaping the spatially and temporally pathological wound microenvironment against bacterial infection is critical to rescue stalled healing progress in diabetes-related chronic wounds. Herein, we demonstrate on the room-temperature construction of a glucose oxidase (GOx)-mimicking and peroxidase (POD)-mimicking dual-nanozymes catalytic cascade system upon the partial reduction of Fe3+ to Fe2+ and the deposition of Au nanoparticles, simultaneously. The as-prepared dual-nanozymes catalytic cascade system possesses the capabilities of reshaping the pathological microenvironments of diabetic wound via glucose consumption and acidification, leading to amplified catalytic cascade activities for sterilization. On the one hand, the GOx-mimicking enzymatic activity of the catalytic cascade system can not only deplete glucose and acidize wound milieu to inhibit bacteria growth, but also utilize the weak alkaline milieu of diabetic wound to provide sufficient H2O2 and a favorable pH for subsequent OH generation. On the other hand, the POD-mimicking enzymatic activity of the catalytic cascade system can continuously produce OH for sterilization under the weak acidic milieu in the presence of abundant H2O2. Benefiting from the simply and mild preparation process and the excellent dual-nanozymes catalytic cascade activities under the deliberate evolved milieus of diabetes-related chronic wounds, our catalytic cascade system exhibits the promising healing effect and clinical translation potential against diabetic wound infection.

Abstract
Antibiotics play an important role in the treatment of diseases, but bacterial resistance caused by their widespread and unreasonable use has become an urgent problem in clinical treatment. With the rapid advancement of nanoscience and nanotechnology, the development of nanomedicine has been transformed into a new approach to the problem of bacterial resistance. As a new type of carbon-based nanomaterial, carbon dots (CDs) have attracted the interest of antibacterial researchers due to their ease of preparation, amphiphilicity, facile surface functionalization, and excellent optical properties, among other properties. This article reviewed the synthesis methods and properties of various CDs and their composites in order to highlight the advancements in the field of CDs-based antibacterial agents. Then we focused on the relationship between the principal properties of CDs and the antibacterial mechanism, including the following: (1) the physical damage caused by the small size, amphiphilicity, and surface charge of CDs. (2) Photogenerated electron transfer characteristics of CDs that produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) in themselves or in other compounds. The ability of ROS to oxidize can lead to the lipid peroxidation of cell membranes, as well as damage proteins and DNA. (3) The nano-enzyme properties of CDs can catalyze reactions that generate ROS. (4) Synergistic antibacterial effect of CDs and antibiotics or other nanocomposites. Finally, we look forward to the challenges that CDs-based nanocomposites face in practical antibacterial applications and propose corresponding solutions to further expand the application potential of nanomaterials in the treatment of infectious diseases, particularly drug-resistant bacterial infections.

Abstract
Healing bacterial chronic wounds caused by hyperglycemia is of great significance to protect the physical and mental health of diabetic patients. In this context, emerging chemodynamic therapy (CDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT) with broad antibacterial spectra and high spatiotemporal controllability have flourished. However, CDT was challenged by the near-neutral pH and inadequate H2O2 surrounding the chronic wound site, while PTT showed overheating-triggered side effects (e.g., damaging the normal tissue) and poor effects on thermotolerant bacterial biofilms. Therefore, we engineered an all-in-one glucose-responsive photothermal nanozyme, GOX/MPDA/Fe@CDs, consisting of glucose oxidase (GOX), Fe-doped carbon dots (Fe@CDs), and mesoporous polydopamine (MPDA), to efficiently treat chronic diabetic wound bacterial infections and eradicate biofilms without impacting the surrounding normal tissues. Specifically, GOX/MPDA/Fe@CDs produced a local temperature (∼ 45.0°C) to enhance the permeability of the pathogenic bacterium and its biofilm upon near-infrared (NIR) 808 nm laser irradiation, which was seized to initiate endogenous high blood glucose to activate the catalytic activity of GOX on the GOX/MPDA/Fe@CD surface to achieve the simultaneous self-supplying of H2O2 and H+, cascade catalyzing •OH production via a subsequent peroxidase-mimetic activity-induced Fenton/Fenton-like reaction. As such, the in vivo diabetic wound infected with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus was effectively healed after 12.0 days of treatment. This work was expected to provide an innovative approach to the clinical treatment of bacterially infected diabetic chronic wounds. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: An all-in-one glucose-responsive photothermal nanozyme GOX/MPDA/Fe@CDs was constructed. Cascade nanozyme GOX/MPDA/Fe@CDs self-supply H2O2 and H+ to break H2O2 and pH limits to fight bacterial infections. Synergistic chemotherapy and photothermal therapy with nanozyme GOX/MPDA/Fe@CDs accelerates healing of biofilm-infected diabetic wounds.

Acta Biomater 2023; 166:254-265. [PMID: 37187300 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2023.05.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/29/2022] [Revised: 04/21/2023] [Accepted: 05/09/2023] [Indexed: 05/17/2023]
Abstract
Oral aphthous ulcers are a common inflammatory efflorescence of oral mucosa, presenting as inflammation and oral mucosal damage and manifesting as pain. The moist and highly dynamic environment of the oral cavity makes the local treatment of oral aphthous ulcers challenging. Herein, a poly(ionic liquid)-based diclofenac sodium (DS)-loaded (PIL-DS) buccal tissue adhesive patch fabricated with intrinsically antimicrobial, highly wet environment adhesive properties and anti-inflammatory activities to treat oral aphthous ulcers was developed. The PIL-DS patch was prepared via polymerization of a catechol-containing ionic liquid, acrylic acid, and butyl acrylate, followed by anion exchange with DS-. The PIL-DS can adhere to wet tissues, including mucosa muscles and organs, and efficiently deliver the carried DS- at wound sites, exerting remarkable synergistic antimicrobial (bacteria and fungi) properties. Accordingly, the PIL-DS elicited dual therapeutic effects on oral aphthous ulcers with Staphylococcus aureus infection through antibacterial and anti-inflammatory activities, significantly accelerating oral aphthous ulcer healing as an oral mucosa patch. The results indicated that the PIL-DS patch, with inherently antimicrobial and wet adhesion properties, is promising for treating oral aphthous ulcers in clinical practice. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Oral aphthous ulcers are a common oral mucosal disease, which could lead to bacterial infection and inflammation in severe cases, especially for people with large ulcers or low immunity. However, moist oral mucosa and highly dynamic oral environment make it challenging to maintain therapeutic agents and physical barriers at the wound surface. Therefore, an innovative drug carrier with wet adhesion is urgently needed. Herein, a poly(ionic liquid)-based diclofenac sodium (DS)-loaded (PIL-DS) buccal tissue adhesive patch was developed to treat oral aphthous ulcers showing intrinsically antimicrobial and highly wet environment adhesive properties due to the presence of catechol-containing ionic liquid monomer. Additionally, the PIL-DS showed significantly therapeutic effects on oral aphthous ulcers with S. aureus infection through antibacterial and anti-inflammatory activities. We expect that our work can provide inspiration for the development of treatment for microbially infected oral ulcers.

Abstract
In the past few decades, great progress has been made in the field of nanomaterials against bacterial infection. However, with the widespread emergence of drug-resistant bacteria, people try their best to explore and develop new antibacterial strategies to fight bacteria without obtaining or increasing drug resistance. Recently, multi-mode synergistic therapy has been considered as an effective scheme for the treatment of bacterial infections, especially the combination of photothermal therapy (PTT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT) with controllable, non-invasive, small side effects and broad-spectrum antibacterial characteristics. It can not only improve the efficiency of antibiotics, but also do not promote antibiotic resistance. Therefore, multifunctional nanomaterials which combine the advantages of PTT and PDT are more and more used in the treatment of bacterial infections. However, there is still a lack of a comprehensive review of the synergistic effect of PTT and PDT in anti-infection. This review first focuses on the synthesis of synergistic photothermal/photodynamic nanomaterials and discusses the ways and challenges of photothermal/photodynamic synergism, as well as the future research direction of photothermal/photodynamic synergistic antibacterial nanomaterials.

Abstract
Focused ultrasound ablation surgery (FUAS) is a novel therapy with a wide range of potential applications. However, synergists are crucial to the therapy process due to the ultrasonic energy's attenuation properties. As a result of the complex hypoxic environment in the tumor area and many factors, the existing synergists have limitations such as weak targeting, single imaging mode, and easy tumor recurrence after treatment. Because of the above deficiencies, this study intends to construct bio-targeted oxygen production probes consisting of Bifidobacterium that naturally target the hypoxia region of the tumor and multi-functional oxygen-producing nanoparticles equipped with IR780, perfluorohexane (PFH), CBP (carboplatin), and oxygen. The probes are expected to achieve targeted and synergistic FUAS therapy and dual-mode imaging to mediate tumor diagnosis and treatment. The oxygen and drugs carried in it are accurately released after FUAS stimulation, which is expected to alleviate tumor hypoxia, avoid tumor drug resistance, improve the effect of chemotherapy, and realize FUAS combined with chemotherapy antitumor therapy. This strategy is expected to make up for the deficiencies of existing synergists, improve the effectiveness and safety of treatment, and provide the foundation for future tumor therapy progress.

Synthesis and evaluation of water-soluble imidazolium salt chitin with broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity and excellent biocompatibility for infected wound healing. Carbohydr Polym 2023; 306:120575. [PMID: 36746566 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2023.120575] [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: 11/19/2022] [Revised: 01/04/2023] [Accepted: 01/08/2023] [Indexed: 01/13/2023]
Abstract
Infections caused by bacteria have long constituted a major threat to human health and the economy. Therefore, there is an urgent need to design broad-spectrum antibacterial materials possessing good biocompatibility to treat such infections. Herein, inspired by the good biocompatibility of chitin and antibacterial properties of imidazolium salts, a polysaccharide-based material, imidazolium salt chitin (IMSC), was homogeneously prepared using a facile method with epichlorohydrin as a chemical crosslinker to combine chitin with imidazole to enhance Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus)-infected wound healing. The characteristics, antimicrobial properties, and biosafety of IMSC were evaluated. The results demonstrated successful grafting of imidazole onto chitin. Furthermore, IMSC exhibited good water solubility, broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity, hemocompatibility, and biocompatibility. Moreover, IMSC enabled complete healing of S. aureus-infected wound in Sprague-Dawley rats within 15 days of application, thus demonstrating that IMSC could reduce wound inflammation and remarkably accelerate wound healing owing to its efficient antibacterial activity and ability to promote collagen deposition in and around the wound area. Therefore, this study provides a promising and potential therapeutic strategy for infected wound healing by synthesizing a water-soluble and broad-spectrum antimicrobial material exhibiting good biocompatibility.

Three-dimension chitosan hydrogel loading melanin composite nanoparticles for wound healing by anti-bacteria, immune activation and macrophage autophagy promotion. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 237:124176. [PMID: 37023589 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.124176] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2023] [Revised: 03/15/2023] [Accepted: 03/21/2023] [Indexed: 04/08/2023]
Abstract
Application of Combined photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT) has become one of the most promising strategy to replace antibiotics and avoid the epidemic of drug-resistant strains during wound healing. However, high amount of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and high temperature cause severe stress response to normal tissues, leading to potential risks of wound healing. Herein, a three-dimension chitosan hydrogel melanin-glycine-C60 nanoparticles (MGC NPs) were prepared to realized effective anti-bacterial activity, immune activation and macrophage autophagy promotion in three-dimensional wound space without triggering stress response. MGC NP is a composite polymer material composed of natural melanin polymer, oligopeptide and carbon-based material, which showed excellent biological safety. By regulating the peptide length between melanin and C60 and nanoparticle content, a high ROS/heat environment at the upper wound site and a low ROS/heat environment at the lower region adjacent to the wound tissue were established to obtain a three-dimension hydrogel with precise PDT and PTT efficiency in different regions. Highly effective PDT/PTT was used to kill microorganisms in upper region, thus providing a barrier to reduce microbial infection. Mild PDT/PTT in lower region promoted the polarization of M1 macrophage to M2 macrophage and activated autophagy of M2 macrophages, regulating the immune microenvironment and promoting wound repair. In conclusion, the novel three-dimensional PDT/PTT therapy based on natural macromolecules proposed in this study accelerates wound healing through dual pathways on the premise of avoiding wound stress response, which is of great significance for the development of clinical strategies for phototherapy.

Abstract
The main treatment for bacterial infections is antibiotic therapy, but the emergence of bacterial resistance has severely limited the efficacy of antibiotics. Therefore, another effective means of treating bacterial infections is needed to alleviate the therapeutic pressure caused by antibiotic resistance. Photodynamic antibacterial therapy (PDAT) has gradually entered people's field of vision as an infection treatment method that does not depend on antibiotics. PDAT induces photosensitizers (PS) to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) under light irradiation, and kills bacteria by destroying biological macromolecules at bacterial infection sites. In recent years, researchers have found that some nanomaterials delivering PS can improve PDAT through targeted delivery or synergistic therapeutic effect. Therefore, in this article, we will review the recent applications of several nanomaterials in PDAT, including metal nanoclusters, metal-organic frameworks, and other organic/inorganic nanoparticles, and discuss the advantages and disadvantage of these nanomaterials as carriers for delivery PS to further advance the development of PDAT.

Abstract
The repair of diabetic wounds has always been a job that doctors could not tackle quickly in plastic surgery. To solve this problem, it has become an important direction to use biocompatible biodegradable biomaterials as scaffolds or dressing loaded with a variety of active substances or cells, to construct a wound repair system integrating materials, cells, and growth factors. In terms of wound healing, composite biodegradable biomaterials show strong biocompatibility and the ability to promote wound healing. This review describes the multifaceted integration of biomaterials with drugs, stem cells, and active agents. In wounds, stem cells and their secreted exosomes regulate immune responses and inflammation. They promote angiogenesis, accelerate skin cell proliferation and re-epithelialization, and regulate collagen remodeling that inhibits scar hyperplasia. In the process of continuous combination with new materials, a series of materials that can be well matched with active ingredients such as cells or drugs are derived for precise delivery and controlled release of drugs. The ultimate goal of material development is clinical transformation. At present, the types of materials for clinical application are still relatively single, and the bottleneck is that the functions of emerging materials have not yet reached a stable and effective degree. The development of biomaterials that can be further translated into clinical practice will become the focus of research.
