[PMID: 37467596 DOI: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2023.122237] [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: 10/09/2022] [Revised: 06/24/2023] [Accepted: 07/02/2023] [Indexed: 07/21/2023]
Abstract
Although biodegradable polymer coatings can impede corrosion of magnesium (Mg)-based orthopedic implants, they are prone to excessive degradation and accidental scratching in practice. Bone implant-related infection and limited osteointegration are other factors that adversely impact clinical application of Mg-based biomedical implants. Herein, a self-healing polymeric coating is constructed on the Mg alloy together with incorporation of a stimuli-responsive drug delivery nanoplatform by a spin-spray layer-by-layer (SSLbL) assembly technique. The nanocontainers are based on simvastatin (SIM)-encapsulated hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles (S@HMSs) modified with polydopamine (PDA) and polycaprolactone diacrylate (PCL-DA) bilayer. Owing to the dynamic reversible reactions, the hybrid coating shows a fast, stable, and cyclical water-enabled self-healing capacity. The antibacterial assay indicates good bacteria-killing properties under near infrared (NIR) irradiation due to synergistic effects of hyperthermia, reactive oxygens species (ROS), and SIM leaching. In vitro results demonstrate that NIR laser irradiation promotes the cytocompatibility, osteogenesis, and angiogenesis. The coating facilitates alkaline phosphatase activity and expedites extracellular matrix mineralization as well as expression of osteogenesis-related genes. This study reveals a useful strategy to develop multifunctional coatings on bioabsorbable Mg alloys for orthopedic implants.

Danduboyina A, Panjiyar BK, Borra SR, Panicker SS. Cardiovascular Benefits of Resistance Training in Patients With Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction: A Systematic Review. Cureus 2023; 15:e47813. [PMID: 38021681 PMCID: PMC10676736 DOI: 10.7759/cureus.47813] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 10/27/2023] [Indexed: 12/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases pose a serious problem for health globally. Among these, congestive heart failure is the leading cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide. According to the recent census, heart failure contributes to a huge financial burden annually. Exercise therapy is an integral part of the non-pharmacological management of heart failure. Due to the availability of various types of exercise therapies and rapid advancements in the existing evidence, it is often challenging to prescribe an appropriate exercise program. Although there is unequivocal evidence supporting the cardiovascular benefits of aerobic therapy, the incorporation of resistance training into exercise regimens should also be encouraged due to its effects on muscular endurance and ameliorating skeletal myopathy in heart failure. In this study, we used a systematic literature review (SLR) approach to give an overview of the current literature and highlight the cardiovascular benefits of resistance training, alone or in combination with aerobic training. We reviewed articles from well-recognized journals published between 2013 and 2023, finally narrowing down to nine selected papers for a thorough analysis. The inclusion criteria comprise studies dealing with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), resistance training alone or in combination with aerobic therapy, and studies available for free in either the PubMed or Google Scholar databases. The systematic review revealed that resistance training in combination with aerobic therapy has greater cardiovascular benefits than either resistance or aerobic therapy alone. A few unique approaches, like periodic intermittent muscular exercise (PRIME) and super circuit training (SCT), have demonstrated an improvement in cardiac and non-cardiac clinical outcomes compared to conventional exercise therapies. Moreover, various factors, like lack of motivation and lack of time, contribute to poor adherence to exercise therapy. Approaches like telerehabilitation and designing exercise regimens with activities that patients enjoy have led to improvements in long-term adherence rates. Nevertheless, further exploration and research by conducting randomized controlled trials on a larger scale is essential to explore the potential of resistance training in the rehabilitation of patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction and to develop the most effective exercise therapy.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases are the main killers threatening human health. Many studies have shown that abnormal energy metabolism plays a key role in the occurrence and development of acute and chronic cardiovascular diseases. Regulating cardiac energy metabolism is a frontier topic in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. However, we are not very clear about the choice of different substrates, the specific mechanism of energy metabolism participating in the course of cardiovascular disease, and how to develop appropriate drugs to regulate energy metabolism to treat cardiovascular disease. Therefore, this paper reviews how energy metabolism participates in cardiovascular pathophysiological processes and potential drugs aimed at interfering energy metabolism.It is expected to provide good suggestions for promoting the clinical prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases from the perspective of energy metabolism.

Simvastatin-loaded nano-niosomes efficiently downregulates the MAPK-NF-κB pathway during the acute phase of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury. Mol Biol Rep 2022; 49:10377-10385. [PMID: 36097124 DOI: 10.1007/s11033-022-07891-3] [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: 04/23/2022] [Revised: 08/10/2022] [Accepted: 08/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Simvastatin can potentially mitigate acute inflammatory phase of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury. However, these effects negatively influenced by its poor bioavailability, low water solubility and high metabolism. Here, we investigated the effects of SIM-loaded nano-niosomes on a rat model of MI/R injury to find a drug delivery method to tackle the barriers. METHODS Nano-niosomes' characteristics were identified using dynamic light scattering and transmission electron microscopy. Fifty male Wistar rats were divided into five groups: Sham; MI/R; MI/R + nano-niosome; MI/R + SIM; MI/R + SIM-loaded nano-niosomes. Left anterior descending artery was ligated for 45 min, and 3 mg/kg SIM, nano-niosomes, or SIM-loaded nano-niosomes was intramyocardially injected ten min before the onset of reperfusion. ELISA assay was used to assess cardiac injury markers (cTnI, CK-MB) and inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-6, TGF-β, MPC-1). Expression level of MAPK-NF-κB and histopathological changes were evaluated by western blot and hematoxylin & eosin staining, respectively. RESULTS the size of nano-niosome was 137 nm, reached to 163 nm when simvastatin was loaded. To achieve optimized niosomes span 80, a drug/cholesterol ratio of 0.4 and seven min of sonication time was applied. Optimized entrapment efficiency of SIM-loaded nano-niosomes was 98.21%. Inflammatory cytokines and the expression level of MAPK and NF-κB were reduced in rats receiving SIM-loaded nano-niosomes compared to MI/R + SIM and MI/R + SIM-loaded nano-niosomes. CONCLUSION Our results showed that SIM-loaded nano-niosomes could act more efficiently than SIM in alleviating the acute inflammatory response of reperfusion injury via downregulating the activation of MAPK-NF-κB.
