Preventing bisphosphonate induced osteonecrosis of the jaw with a polyguanidine conjugate (GuaDex): A promising new approach. Bone 2024; 187:117211. [PMID: 39053792 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2024.117211] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/24/2024] [Revised: 07/22/2024] [Accepted: 07/22/2024] [Indexed: 07/27/2024]
Abstract
Osteonecrosis of the jaw (ONJ) is a relatively rare side effect after prolonged use of bisphosphonates, which are drugs used to treat bone resorption in osteoporosis and certain cancers. This study introduces a novel ONJ model in rats by combining exposure to bisphosphonates, oral surgery, and bacterial inoculation. Potential ONJ preventive effects of polyguanidine (GuaDex) or antibiotics were evaluated. The study consisted of twenty-four male Wistar rats were divided into four groups. Groups 1 to 3 were given weekly doses of i.v. Zoledronic acid (ZA), four weeks before and two weeks after an osteotomy procedure on their left mandibular first molar. Group 4 was a negative control. Streptococcus gordonii bacteria were introduced into the osteotomy pulp chamber and via the food for seven days. On day eight, the rats were given different treatments. Group 1 was given a GuaDex injection into the osteotomy socket, Group 2 was given an intramuscular (i.m.) injection of clindamycin, Group 3 (positive control) was given an i.m. injection of saline, and Group 4 was given an i.m. injection of saline. Blood samples were taken two weeks after the osteotomy procedure, after which the rats were euthanized. Bone healing, bone mineral density, histology, and blood status were analyzed. The results showed that Group 1 (GuaDex) had no ONJ, extensive ongoing bone regeneration, active healing activity, vascularization, and no presence of bacteria. Group 2 (clindamycin) showed early stages of ONJ, avascular areas, and bacteria. Group 3 showed stages of ONJ, inflammatory infiltrates, defective healing, and bacterial presence, and Group 4 had normal healing activity and no bacterial presence. Conclusion: ZA treatment and bacterial inoculation after tooth extraction inhibited bone remodeling/healing and induced ONJ characteristic lesions in the rats. Only GuaDex apparently prevented ONJ development, stimulated bone remodeling, and provided an antimicrobial effect.

Abstract
Membrane-targeting compounds are of immense interest to counter complicated multi-drug resistant infections. However, the broad-spectrum effect of such compounds is often unmet due to the surges of antibiotic resistance among majority of Gram-negative bacteria compared to Gram-positive species. Though amphiphiles, synthetic mimics of antimicrobial peptides etc, have been extensively explored for their potential to perturb bacterial membranes, small molecule-based supramolecular hydrogels have remained unexplored. The design of supramolecular hydrogels can be tuned on-demand, catering to desired applications, including facile bacterial membrane perturbation. Considering the strong biocidal properties of Ag-based systems and the bacterial membrane-targeting potential of appended primary amine groups, we designed self-assembled multicomponent supramolecular Ag(I)-hydrogels with urea and DATr (3,5-diamino-1,2,4-triazole) as ligands, which are predisposed for hydrogen bonding and interacting with negatively charged bacterial membranes at physiological pH. The synthesized supramolecular Ag(I)-hydrogels exhibited almost similar antibacterial activity against both Gram-negative (Campylobacter jejuni; C. jejuni) and Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus; S. aureus) bacteria, with minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of ∼60 μg mL-1. Ag(I)-hydrogels facilitated the disruption of the negatively charged bacterial membrane due to electrostatic interaction and complementary hydrogen bonding facilitated by DATr and urea. Sustained intracellular ROS generation in the presence of Ag(I)-hydrogel further expedited cell lysis. We envisage that the multicomponent supramolecular Ag(I)-hydrogels studied herein can be employed in designing effective antibacterial coatings on a range of medical devices, including surgical instruments. Moreover, the present form of the hydrogels has the potential to improve the antibacterial functionality of conventional antimicrobials, thus revitalizing the effective targeting of hard-to-treat multi-drug-resistant (MDR) bacterial infections in a clinical set up.

Abstract
The successful evolution of KPC-2 in bacteria has limited the clinical practice of carbapenems. This dilemma deteriorated the prognosis of associated infections and hence attracted increasing attention from researchers to explore alternative therapeutic options. Here, the enzyme inhibition assay was first performed to screen for a potent KPC-2 inhibitor. The synergistic effect of the candidate with carbapenems was further confirmed by checkboard minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) assay, time-killing assay, disk diffusion method, and live/dead bacteria staining analysis. The mechanisms by which the candidate acts were subsequently explored through molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, etc. Our study found that Ginkgolic Acid (C13:0) (GA) exhibited effective KPC-2 inhibitory activity in both laboratory strain and clinical strain containing KPC-2. It could potentiate the killing effect of carbapenems on KPC-2-positive Klebsiella pnenmoniae (K. pnenmoniae). Further explorations revealed that GA could competitively bind to the active pocket of KPC-2 with meropenem (MEM) via residues Trp104, Gly235, and Leu166. The secondary structure and functional groups of KPC-2 were subsequently altered, which may be the main mechanism by which GA exerted its KPC-2 inhibitory effect. In addition, GA was also found to synergize with MEM to disrupt membrane integrity and increase membrane permeability, which may be another mechanism by which GA reinforced the bactericidal ability of carbapenems. Our study indicated that GA was a significant KPC-2 inhibitor that could prolong the lifespan of carbapenems and improve the prognosis of patients.

Abstract
The rise of various multidrug-resistant bacteria has created a need for new biocompatible and biodegradable antibacterial compounds. Cationic polysaccharides are promising candidates for this role. Therefore, cationic derivatives of commercial dextrans with molar masses of 11 kDa, 76 kDa, 411 kDa, and 1500-2500 kDa and various degrees of substitution (DSQ 0.34-0.52) were prepared and their antimicrobial properties against four gram-negative nosocomial bacteria were tested. As expected, a higher DSQ led to higher efficiency. The best antimicrobial properties were found for derivatives of 411 kDa, followed by 76 kDa and 1500-2000 kDa dextrans. This indicates that there is a certain optimum molar mass with the best antimicrobial properties. However, as molar mass increased, the biocompatibility of cationic dextran steadily decreased, with increased hemagglutination and toxicity being seen for human cells. The derivatives of 76 kDa dextran with higher DSQ (0.40-0.52) were the best antimicrobial agents suitable for further clinical testing.

Abstract
Bacteria organized in biofilms show significant tolerance to conventional antibiotics compared to their planktonic counterparts and form the basis for chronic infections. Biofilms are composites of different types of extracellular polymeric substances that help in resisting several host-defense measures, including phagocytosis. These are increasingly being recognized as a passive virulence factor that enables many infectious diseases to proliferate and an essential contributing facet to anti-microbial resistance. Thus, inhibition and dispersion of biofilms are linked to addressing the issues associated with therapeutic challenges imposed by biofilms. This report is to address this complex issue using a self-assembled guanidinium-Ag(0) nanoparticle (AD-L@Ag(0)) hybrid gel composite for executing a combination therapy strategy for six difficult to treat biofilm-forming and multidrug-resistant bacteria. Improved efficacy was achieved primarily through effective biofilm inhibition and dispersion by the cationic guanidinium ion derivative, while Ag(0) contributes to the subsequent bactericidal activity on planktonic bacteria. Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of the AD-L@Ag(0) formulation was tested against Acinetobacter baumannii (25 μg mL-1), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (0.78 μg mL-1), Staphylococcus aureus (0.19 μg mL-1), Klebsiella pneumoniae (0.78 μg mL-1), Escherichia coli (clinical isolate (6.25 μg mL-1)), Klebsiella pneumoniae (clinical isolate (50 μg mL-1)), Shigella flexneri (clinical isolate (0.39 μg mL-1)) and Streptococcus pneumoniae (6.25 μg mL-1). Minimum bactericidal concentration, and MBIC50 and MBIC90 (Minimum Biofilm Inhibitory Concentration at 50% and 90% reduction, respectively) were evaluated for these pathogens. All these results confirmed the efficacy of the formulation AD-L@Ag(0). Minimum Biofilm Eradication Concentration (MBEC) for the respective pathogens was examined by following the exopolysaccharide quantification method to establish its potency in inhibition of biofilm formation, as well as eradication of mature biofilms. These effects were attributed to the bactericidal effect of AD-L@Ag(0) on biofilm mass-associated bacteria. The observed efficacy of this non-cytotoxic therapeutic combination (AD-L@Ag(0)) was found to be better than that reported in the existing literature for treating extremely drug-resistant bacterial strains, as well as for reducing the bacterial infection load at a surgical site in a small animal BALB/c model. Thus, AD-L@Ag(0) could be a promising candidate for anti-microbial coatings on surgical instruments, wound dressing, tissue engineering, and medical implants.

Abstract
AbstractGlioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is a malignant CNS tumor with a poor prognosis. GBM shows aberrant glycosylation with hypersialylation. This property is a potential target for therapy. This study investigates the growth inhibitory efficacy of poly-guanidine (GuaDex), with an affinity for sialic acid (Sia). Glioma cell cultures and patient-derived glioma cell lines (PDGCLs) expressing Prominin-1 (CD133) were used. Human fibroblasts and astrocyte-derived cells were used as controls. Temozolomide (standard GBM drug, TMZ) and DMSO were used as a comparison. GuaDex at 1–10 µM concentrations, were incubated for 3.5–72 h and with PDGCLs cells for 6–24 h. The cytotoxicity was estimated with a fluorometric cytotoxicity assay (FMCA). Fluorescence-labelled GuaDex was used to study the cell interactions. Sia expression was confirmed with a fluorescence labelled Sia binding lectin. Expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein was determined. GuaDex induction of growth inhibition was fast, showing after less than 5 min incubation while the control cells were not affected even after 50 min incubation. The growth inhibitory effect on PDGCLs spheroids was persistent still showing after 4 weeks post-treatment. The growth inhibition of GuaDex was induced at low µM concentrations while TMZ induced only a slight inhibition at mM concentrations. GuaDex efficacy appears significant and warrants further studies.

Abstract
The development of different methods for tuning surface properties is currently of great interest. The presented work is devoted to the use of modified nanodiamonds to control the wetting and biological fouling of polymers using optical sensors as an example. We have shown that, depending on the type of modification and the amount of nanodiamonds, the surface of the same fluorinated polymer can have both bactericidal properties and, on the contrary, good adhesion to the biomaterial. The precise control of wetting and biofouling properties of the surface was achieved by the optimization of the modified nanodiamonds thermal anchoring conditions. In vitro and in vivo tests have shown that the fixation of amine functional groups leads to inhibition of biological activity, while the presence of a large number of polar groups of mixed composition (amide and acid chloride) promotes adhesion of the biomaterial and allows one to create a biosensor on-site. A comprehensive study made it possible to establish that in the first 5 days the observed biosensor response is provided by cells adhered to the surface due to the cell wall interaction. On the 7th day, the cells are fixed by means of the polysaccharide matrix, which provides much better retention on the surface and a noticeably greater response to substrate injections. Nevertheless, it is important to note that even 1.5 h of incubation is sufficient for the formation of the reliable bioreceptor on the surface with the modified nanodiamonds. The approach demonstrated in this work makes it possible to easily and quickly isolate the microbiome on the surface of the sensor and perform the necessary studies of its substrate specificity or resistance to toxic effects.

Abstract
Effective disinfection is a basic procedure in medical facilities, including those conducting dental surgeries, where treatments for tissue discontinuity are also performed, as it is an important element of infection prevention. Disinfectants used in dentistry and dental and maxillofacial surgery include both inorganic (hydrogen peroxide, sodium chlorite-hypochlorite) and organic compounds (ethanol, isopropanol, peracetic acid, chlorhexidine, eugenol). Various mechanisms of action of disinfectants have been reported, which include destruction of the structure of bacterial and fungal cell membranes; damage of nucleic acids; denaturation of proteins, which in turn causes inhibition of enzyme activity; loss of cell membrane integrity; and decomposition of cell components. This article discusses the most important examples of substances used as disinfectants in dentistry and presents the mechanisms of their action with particular focus on severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The search was conducted in ScienceDirect, PubMed, and Scopus databases. The interest of scientists in the use of disinfectants in dental practice is constantly growing, which results in the increasing number of publications on disinfection, sterilization, and asepsis. Many disinfectants often possess several of the abovementioned mechanisms of action. In addition, disinfectant preparations used in dental practice either contain one compound or are frequently a mixture of active compounds, which increases their range and effectiveness of antimicrobial action. Currently available information on disinfectants that can be used to prevent SARS-CoV-2 infection in dental practices was summarized.

Abstract
In this work, corn starch (St) was firstly grafted with polyacrylamide (PAM) to obtain StAM, which was subsequently immobilized with arginine to obtain a guanidine-containing starch-based resin, StAM–Arg. The synthesized products were characterized via Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), 13C-NMR nuclear magnetic resonance (13C-NMR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), gel permeation chromatography (GPC), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). StAM–Arg exhibited a significantly enhanced adsorption capacity for acid fuchsin (AF), acid orange G (AOG), and acid blue 80 (AB80) compared with zeolite, diatomite, St and StAM, and it also exhibited broad-spectrum adsorption for different dyes. Weak acidic conditions were favorable for the resin to adsorb acid dyes. The decolorization rate (DR) by StAM–Arg for mixed wastewater reached 82.49%, which was higher than that of activated carbon (DR = 58.09%). StAM–Arg showed high resistance to microbial degradation, resulting in significantly improved structural stability for the resin. Its antibacterial rate (AR) for E. coli was up to 99.73%. After 7 days in simulated natural water, the weight loss ratio (WR) of StAM–Arg was 14.5%, which was much lower than that of St (WR = 66.53%). The introduced guanidine groups were considered to be the major reason for the observed improvements. Furthermore, the cationic guanidine could trap the acid dyes via ion-exchange reactions, while effectively inhibiting or eliminating the growth of bacteria on the adsorbent surface. The above advantages, including good dyestuff adsorption properties, high structural stability and prolonged service life, make StAM–Arg overcome the inherent drawbacks of the existing natural polymer adsorbents and have good application prospect in the treatment of textile wastewater. In the side reaction, the two aldehyde groups in the glutaraldehyde molecules should undergo an aldol condensation reaction with the hydroxyl group in the starch molecule, which has been corrected.![]()

Abstract
Nanotechnology came to stay improving the quality of human life by reducing environmental contamination of earth and water with pathogens. This review discusses how self-assembled antimicrobial nanomaterials can contribute to maintain humans, their water and their environment inside safe boundaries to human life even though some of these nanomaterials display an overt toxicity. At the core of their strategic use, the self-assembled antimicrobial nanomaterials exhibit optimal and biomimetic organization leading to activity at low doses of their toxic components. Antimicrobial bilayer fragments, bilayer-covered or multilayered nanoparticles, functionalized inorganic or organic polymeric materials, coatings and hydrogels disclose their potential for environmental and public health applications in this review.
