Barberi J, Saqib M, Dmitruk A, Opitz J, Naplocha K, Beshchasna N, Spriano S, Ferraris S. Characterization of Tannic Acid-Coated AZ31 Mg Alloy for Biomedical Application and Comparison with AZ91. MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 17:343. [PMID: 38255511 PMCID: PMC10817444 DOI: 10.3390/ma17020343] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2023] [Revised: 01/02/2024] [Accepted: 01/08/2024] [Indexed: 01/24/2024]
Abstract
Magnesium alloys are promising materials for bioresorbable implants that will improve patient life and reduce healthcare costs. However, their clinical use is prevented by the rapid degradation and corrosion of magnesium, which leads to a fast loss of mechanical strength and the formation of by-products that can trigger tissue inflammation. Here, a tannic acid coating is proposed to control the degradation of AZ31 and AZ91 alloys, starting from a previous study by the authors on AZ91. The coatings on the two materials were characterized both by the chemical (EDS, FTIR, XPS) and the morphological (SEM, confocal profilometry) point of view. Static degradation tests in PBS and electrochemical measurements in different solutions showed that the protective performances of the tannic acid coatings are strongly affected by the presence of cracks. The presence of fractures in the protective layer generates galvanic couples between the coating scales and the metal, worsening the corrosion resistance. Although degradation control was not achieved, useful insights on the degradation mechanisms of coated Mg surfaces were obtained, as well as key points for future studies: it resulted that the absence of cracks in protective coatings is of uttermost importance for novel biodegradable implants with proper degradation kinetics.

Abstract
Bone healing involves complex processes including inflammation, induction, and remodeling. In this context, anti-inflammatory and osteoconductive multi-functional nanoparticles have attracted considerable attention for application in improved bone tissue regeneration. In particular, nanoparticles that promote suppression of inflammatory response after injury and direction of desirable tissue regeneration events are of immense interest to researchers. We herein report a one-step method to prepare multi-functional nanoparticles using tannic acid (TA) and simulated body fluid (SBF) containing multiple mineral ions. Mineral-tannic acid nanoparticles (mTNs) were rapidly fabricated in 10 min, and their size (around 250-350 nm) and chemical composition were controlled through the TA concentration. In vitro analysis using human adipose derived stem cells (hADSCs) showed that mTNs effectively scavenged reactive oxygen species (ROS) and enhanced osteogenesis of hADSCs by inducing secretion of alkaline phosphatase. mTNs also increased osteogenic marker gene expression even in the presence of ROS, which can generally arrest osteogenesis (OPN: 1.74, RUNX2: 1.90, OCN: 1.47-fold changes relative to cells not treated with mTNs). In vivo analysis using a mouse peritonitis model revealed that mTNs showed anti-inflammatory effects by decreasing levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines in blood (IL-6: 73 ± 4, TNF-α: 42 ± 2%) and peritoneal fluid (IL-6: 78 ± 2, TNF-α: 21 ± 6%). We believe that this one-step method for fabrication of multi-functional nanoparticles has considerable potential in tissue engineering approaches that require control of complex microenvironments, as required for tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Breast cancer is one of the most commonly diagnosed cancers in American women. Triple negative breast cancer is among the most advanced and aggressive forms of breast cancer. Treatment options are limited for such cancers, making chemotherapy a convenient and effective treatment. Although these therapies can reduce morbidity and mortality, it is often followed by systemic side effects or relapse. Nanoparticles (NPs) have been considered for drug delivery approaches due to their ability to target various disease sites. Herein, we aim to develop a biomimetic NP construct (cell membrane-cloaked NPs) that exhibits specific affinity with triple negative breast cancer cells. In this regard, we designed biomimetic supramolecular nanoconstructs composed of a poly(vinyl pyrrolidone)-tannic acid (PVP-TA NPs/ PVT NPs) core and biofunctionalized with neutrophil cell membranes (PVT-NEU NPs). In this study, we have synthesized a PVT-NEU NP construct, characterized it, and evaluated it for improved targeting and therapeutic benefits in in vitro and in vivo models. Analysis of PVT-NEU NPs confirms the presence of the core of PVP-TA NPs coated with activated human neutrophil membranes. The study results confirmed that PVT-NEU NPs demonstrated an enhanced interaction and targeting with the tumor cells, thus improving the therapeutic activity of a model therapeutic agent (paclitaxel). Altogether, this study suggests the potential of biomimetic NPs as a promising therapeutic option for targeted drug delivery for advanced-stage breast cancer and other similar diseased conditions.

Abstract
As a new type of polymer, water-driven polyurethane (PU) has attracted increasing attention of researchers; however, with the popularization of its application, the following infection problems limit their applications, especially in the biomedical field. Herein, a series of novel cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs)-based PUs were first synthesized by chemical cross-linking CNCs with triblock copolymer polylactide–poly (ethylene glycol)–polylactide (CNC-PU). After covalent binding with tannic acid (TA-CNC-PU), the silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) were further introduced into the material by a reduction reaction (Ag/TA-CNC-PU). Finally, the prepared serial CNCs-based PU nanocomposites were fully characterized, including the microstructure, water contact angle, water uptake, thermal properties as well as antibacterial activity. Compared with CNC-PU, the obtained TA-CNC-PU and Ag/TA-CNC-PU were capable of lower glass transition temperatures and improved thermal stability. In addition, we found that the introduction of tannic acid and Ag NPs clearly increased the material hydrophobicity and antibacterial activity. In particular, the Ag/TA-CNC-PU had a better antibacterial effect on E. coli, while TA-CNC-PU had better inhibitory effect on S. aureus over a 24 h time period. Therefore, these novel CNCs-based PUs may be more beneficial for thermal processing and could potentially be developed into a new class of smart biomaterial material with good antibacterial properties by adjusting the ratio of TA or Ag NPs in their structures.

Removal of Tannic Acid Stabilizes CuO Nanoparticles from Aqueous Media by PAFC: Effect of Process Conditions and Water Chemistry. Molecules 2021; 26:molecules26185615. [PMID: 34577089 PMCID: PMC8470533 DOI: 10.3390/molecules26185615] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2021] [Revised: 09/10/2021] [Accepted: 09/14/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
The increased utilization of CuO nanoparticles (CuO NPs) in various fields has raised concerns about their discharge into water containing a wide range of organic ligands. Moreover, the adsorption of these ligands can stabilize the CuO NPs in drinking water treatment plants. Thus, their removal from potable water is important to mitigate the risk to humans. The present study explored the efficacy of the coagulation-sedimentation (C/S) process for the removal of tannic acid (TA)-stabilized CuO NPs using polyaluminum ferric chloride (PAFC) as a coagulant. Moreover, the influence of process conditions (stirring speed) and water chemistry (i.e., pH and ionic strength (IS)) were also investigated to determine their impact on removal. The results showed that stirring speed in the reaction phase significantly affected the removal due to increased flocculation compared with stirring speed in the mixing phase. In addition, pH and IS affect the colloidal stability and removal efficiency of CuO NPs. A relatively better removal performance (<99%) of CuO NPs was found at lower coagulant dosage in the pH range 6-8. The addition of organic ligands reversed the surface charge potential and enhanced the colloidal stability of CuO NPs, resulting in the destabilization of TA-CuO NPs, thereby reducing the optimum PAFC dosage for removal. By contrast, the IS above the critical coagulation concentration decreased the removal efficiency due to inhibition of the ionic activity of PAFC hydrolysate in the aqueous environment. Fourier transform infrared findings of TA-CuO NPs composite flocs suggest that the primary removal mechanism might be mediated via the combined effect of neutralization, complexation as well as adsorption.

Abstract
Overexpression of collagenase, elastase, and tyrosinase is caused by external factors such as ultraviolet (UV) radiation and stress, resulting in wrinkle formation and freckles through the loss of skin elasticity and skin pigmentation. In this study, we developed novel carbon quantum dots (CQDs) with antioxidant and anti-aging properties using tannic acid as a carbon source through a simple microwave-assisted pyrolysis method. The synthesized tannic acid-derived CQDs (T-CQDs) showed bright blue fluorescence (QY = 28.2 ± 4.0%), exhibiting maximum emission at 430 nm under 350 nm excitation. Even though small amount of the T-CQDs (3μg ml-1) was used, they exhibited excellent free radical scavenging ability (82.8 ± 4.3%). Also, the T-CQDs (10μg ml-1) revealed remarkable inhibitory activity against skin aging-related collagenase (77.6 ± 4.8%), elastase (52.6 ± 1.0%), and tyrosinase (44.2 ± 1.3%), demonstrating their antioxidant and anti-aging effects. Furthermore, their antioxidant and anti-aging properties were superior to those of tannic acid, L-ascorbic acid, and quercetin used as positive controls. Finally, the T-CQDs effectively suppressed UV-induced reactive oxygen species generation by 30% at the cellular levels and showed high cell viability (99.7 ± 0.8%) even at 500μg ml-1. These results demonstrate that the T-CQDs with superior antioxidant, anti-aging properties, and low cytotoxicity can be utilized as novel anti-aging materials in cosmetic and nanomedicine fields.

Abstract
The marked increase in bacterial colonization of medical devices and multiple drug resistance to traditional antibiotics underline the pressing need for developing novel antibacterial surface coatings. In the present investigation, natural polyphenol tannic acid (TA)-capped silver nanoparticles (TA-Ag NPs) were synthesized via an environmentally friendly and sustainable one-step redox reaction under UV irradiation with a simultaneous and uniform deposition on polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and other substrate surfaces. In the synthesis process, the dihydroxyphenyl and trihydroxyphenyl groups of TA actively participate in Ag+ reduction, forming co-ordination linkages with Ag NPs and bestowing the deposition on the PDMS surface. The physico-chemical features of TA-Ag NPs were characterized in detail. Microscopic examination, surface elemental analysis, and wettability measurements clearly reveal the decoration of TA-Ag NPs on the substrate surfaces. The modified PDMS surfaces can kill the adhered bacteria or resist the bacterial adhesion, and no live bacteria can be found on their surfaces. Most importantly, the modified PDMS surfaces exhibit predominant antibacterial effects both in vitro in the catheter bridge model and in vivo in a rat subcutaneous infection model. On the other hand, the functionalized surfaces exhibit only a negligible level of cytotoxicity against L929 mouse fibroblasts with no side effects on the major organs of Sprague-Dawley rats after implantation, indicating their biocompatibility for potential biomedical applications.

Abstract
In this paper, we propose a fluorescent biosensor for the sequential detection of Pb2+ ions and the cancer drug epirubicin (Epn) using the interactions between label-free guanine-rich ssDNA (LFGr-ssDNA), acridine orange (AO), and a metal-phenolic nanomaterial (i.e., nano-monoclinic copper-tannic acid (NMc-CuTA)). An exploration of the sensing mechanism shows that LFGr-ssDNA and AO strongly adsorb on NMc-CuTA through π-π stacking and electrostatic interactions, and this results in the fluorescence quenching of AO. In order to sense the target Pb2+, initially, LFGr-ssDNA specifically binds with Pb2+ ions to form a G4 complex (G-Pb2+-G base pair), which was released from the surface of NMc-CuTA with strong AO fluorescence enhancement (Turn-ON). The subsequent addition of a biothiol, like cysteine (Cys), to the G4 complex decreases the fluorescence, as the Pb2+ ions released from the G4 complex have a higher interaction affinity with the sulfur atoms of Cys; this further induces the unwinding of the G4 complex to form LFGr-ssDNA. Finally, Epn was added to this, which intercalates with LFGr-ssDNA to form a G4 complex via G-Epn-G, resulting in fluorescence recovery (Turn-ON). Accordingly, the Turn-ON fluorescent probe had subsequent limits of detection of 1.5 and 5.6 nM for Pb2+ and Epn, respectively. Hence, the reported NMc-CuTA-based sensing platform has potential applications for the detection of Pb2+ and Epn in real samples with good sensitivity and selectivity.

Abstract
The intracellular delivery of functional nanoparticles (NPs) and the release of therapeutic payloads at a target site are central issues for biomedical applications. However, the endosomal entrapment of NPs typically results in the degradation of active cargo, leading to poor therapeutic outcomes. Current advances to promote the endosomal escape of NPs largely involve the use of polycationic polymers and cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs), which both can suffer from potential toxicity and convoluted synthesis/conjugation processes. Herein, we report the use of metal-phenolic networks (MPNs) as versatile and nontoxic coatings to facilitate the escape of NPs from endo/lysosomal compartments. The MPNs, which were engineered from the polyphenol tannic acid and FeIII or AlIII, enabled the endosomal escape of both inorganic (mesoporous silica) and organic (polystyrene and melamine resin) NPs owing to the "proton-sponge effect" arising from the buffering capacity of MPNs. Postfunctionalization of the MPN-coated NPs with low-fouling polymers did not impair the endosomal escape, indicating the modular and generalizable nature of this approach. We envisage that the ease of fabrication, versatility, low cytotoxicity, and promising endosomal escape performance displayed by the MPN coatings offer opportunities for such coatings to be used for the efficient delivery of cytoplasm-targeted therapeutics using NPs.

Abstract
We report HRP-catalyzed polymerization of Tannic acid (TA) and application of the poly (Tannic acid) (p(TA)) as a versatile platform for covalent immobilization of biomolecules on various electrode surfaces based on electrochemical oxidation of the p(TA) and subsequent oxidative coupling reactions with the biomolecules. We also used this method for capturing cancer cells through a linker molecule, folic acid (FA). Furthermore, we have demonstrated that enhanced electrocatalytic activity of the p(TA)-modified surface could be used for simultaneous electrochemical determination of biologically important electroactive molecules such as ascorbic acid (AA), dopamine (DA), and uric acid (UA). This HRP-catalyzed polymerization of TA and p(TA)-mediated surface modification method can provide a simple and new framework to construct multifunctional platforms for covalent attachment of biomolecules and development of sensitive electrochemical sensing devices.

Abstract
Metal nanoparticles, synthesized using Phyto-constituents are the most economically and environmentally benign materials ever. Biogenic silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) from three fractions of Arisaema flavum tuber extract were synthesized and characterized by UV-visible spectroscopy, XRD (X-rays diffraction), FT-IR (Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy) TEM (transmission electron microscopy) and EDX (Energy dispersive Microscopy). XRD pattern show the face centred cubic crystalline (Fcc) structure of AgNPs. FTIR spectra confirmed the presence of different Polyphenolic compounds capping the AgNps. UV-visible spectroscopy result confirmed the presence of Ag because of the particular surface plasmon Resonance (SPR) in the area of 400-430 nm. The electron microscope studies revealed the formation of spherical AgNPs with diameter ranging from 12 nm to 20 nm. Strong signals of AgNPs were confirmed with EDX analysis. The antibacterial properties of the AgNPs prepared with various extracts were tested against multi-drug resistant bacteria. Which showed significant antibacterial activity against all the multidrug resistant bacterial strains and especially multidrug resistant engineered E.ColiQH4. AgNPs synthesized by methanolic, Ethyl Acetate and aqueous Extracts of Areseama Flavum exhibited significant Photocatalytic activity to reduce methylene blue. Small size, spherical shape and high dispersion are the key properties due to which the AgNPs are having significant biological and photocatalytic activity. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first report of biogenic AgNPs regarding antibacterial activity against multidrug resistant Engineered E.Coli QH4.
