Int J Nanomedicine 2024; 19:1273-1285. [PMID: 38348176 PMCID: PMC10860590 DOI: 10.2147/ijn.s436613] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2023] [Accepted: 01/24/2024] [Indexed: 02/15/2024] Open
Abstract
Purpose To investigate the inhibition of Streptococcus mutans (S.mutans) and its biofilm by AgBr-nanoparticles (NP) @CTMAB (cetyltrimethyl-ammonium bromide) and evaluate the changes in Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA)'s surface roughness (Ra), microhardness, and flexural strength during prolonged immersion in AgBr-NP@CTMAB for application in the denture cleaning industry. Patients and Methods The antibacterial activity of AgBr-NP@CTMAB against S.mutans was measured colony formation assay, OD600 and laser confocal microscopy. Changes in the specimens' values for surface roughness, microhardness, and flexural strength (MPa) were measured after immersion solutions for 180 or 360 days. Results The AgBr-NP@CTMAB solution exhibited a robust antibacterial effect on planktonic S. mutans, with a minimum bactericidal concentration of 5 µg/mL. The 10 µg/mL AgBr-NP@CTMAB solution efficiently inhibited S. mutans biofilm formation. (2) No significant difference in surface roughness after immersion in AgBr-NP@CTMAB (10 µg/mL and 20 µg/mL) comparing with distilled water (P > 0.05) and Polident had significantly higher than distilled water (P < 0.05). There was a significant decrease in the surface hardness of the PMMA specimens that were immersed in the Polident compared with those in distilled water (P < 0.05). While, no significant differences in surface hardness after immersion in the AgBr-NP@CTMAB (P > 0.05). The result of flexural strength suggested that there was no statistically significant difference (P < 0.05) between AgBr-NP@CTMAB as well as Polident and water. Conclusion AgBrNP@CTMAB can efficiently inhibit the growth of plankton S.mutans and biofilm formation, without affecting the flexural strength, microhardness, or surface roughness of PMMA. Therefore, AgBrNP@CTMAB holds promise as a new denture cleaning agent.

[PMID: 37693886 PMCID: PMC10488770 DOI: 10.2147/ijn.s418465] [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: 05/11/2023] [Accepted: 08/28/2023] [Indexed: 09/12/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Dentin caries remains a significant public concern, with no clinically viable material that effectively combines remineralization and antimicrobial properties. To address this issue, this study focused on the development of a bio-inspired multifunctional nanogel with both antibacterial and biomineralization properties. Methods First, p(NIPAm-co-DMC) (PNPDC) copolymers were synthesized from N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAm) and 2-methacryloyloxyethyl-trimethyl ammonium chloride (DMC). Subsequently, PNPDC was combined with γ-polyglutamic acid (γ-PGA) through physical cross-linking to form nanogels. These nanogels served as templates for the mineralization of calcium phosphate (Cap), resulting in Cap-loaded PNPDC/PGA nanogels. The nanogels were characterized using various techniques, including TEM, particle tracking analysis, XRD, and FTIR. The release properties of ions were also assessed. In addition, the antibacterial properties of the Cap-loaded PNPDC/PGA nanogels were evaluated using the broth microdilution method and a biofilm formation assay. The remineralization effects were examined on both demineralized dentin and type I collagen in vitro. Results PNPDC/PGA nanogels were successfully synthesized and loaded with Cap. The diameter of the Cap-loaded PNPDC/PGA nanogels was measured as 196.5 nm at 25°C and 162.3 nm at 37°C. These Cap-loaded nanogels released Ca2+ and PO43- ions quickly, effectively blocking dental tubules with a depth of 10 μm and promoting the remineralization of demineralized dentin within 7 days. Additionally, they facilitated the heavy intrafibrillar mineralization of type I collagen within 3 days. Moreover, the Cap-loaded nanogels exhibited MIC50 and MIC90 values of 12.5 and 50 mg/mL against Streptococcus mutans, respectively, with an MBC value of 100 mg/mL. At a concentration of 50 mg/mL, the Cap-loaded nanogels also demonstrated potent inhibitory effects on biofilm formation by Streptococcus mutans while maintaining good biocompatibility. Conclusion Cap-loaded PNPDC/PGA nanogels are a multifunctional biomimetic system with antibacterial and dentin remineralization effects. This strategy of using antibacterial nanogels as mineral feedstock carriers offered fresh insight into the clinical management of caries.

Poly (Methyl Methacrylate)-Containing Silver-Phosphate Glass Exhibits Potent Antimicrobial Activity without Deteriorating the Mechanical and Biological Properties of Dental Prostheses. Polymers (Basel) 2023; 15:polym15020297. [PMID: 36679178 PMCID: PMC9864078 DOI: 10.3390/polym15020297] [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] [Received: 12/01/2022] [Revised: 12/30/2022] [Accepted: 01/03/2023] [Indexed: 01/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) is a commonly used denture material with poor antimicrobial effects. This study investigated the antimicrobial effects of PMMA-containing silver-phosphate glass. We fabricated a novel material comprising PMMA-containing silver-phosphate glass. Then, microhardness, flexural strength, and gloss unit were analyzed. Antimicrobial activity against Streptococcus mutans and Candida albicans was investigated. Colony-forming units were counted, and antimicrobial rates were measured. Biocompatibility tests were performed using a colorimetric MTT assay for evaluating cell metabolic activity. The microhardness, flexural strength, and gloss unit of the experimental groups (with silver-phosphate glass) were not significantly different from those of the control group (no silver-phosphate glass) (P > 0.05), which showed clinically valid values. With increasing proportions of silver-phosphate glass, the antimicrobial activity against the two microorganisms increased (P < 0.05). Furthermore, S. mutans showed more than 50% antimicrobial activity in 4%, 6%, and 8% experimental groups, C. albicans showed more than 50% antimicrobial activity in 6% and 8% groups, and a statistically significant difference in antimicrobial activity was observed compared to the control (P < 0.05). The cell viability of the experimental groups was not significantly different from that of the control group (P > 0.05). Both control and experimental groups showed approximately 100% cell viability. These results suggest that silver-phosphate glass is a promising antimicrobial material in dentistry.

Microbiol Spectr 2022; 10:e0226522. [PMID: 36314964 PMCID: PMC9769984 DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.02265-22] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/17/2022] [Accepted: 10/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/05/2022] Open
Abstract
Social hygiene is seriously threatened by the rise in colistin (COL) resistance against Gram-negative bacteria (GNB). With resistance to last-line antibiotics such as COL becoming more common, it is imperative to identify alternative treatment options. In our work, we sought to determine if COL plus kaempferol (KP) present synergistic effects on the antibacterial and antibiofilm activities against colistin-resistant (Col-R) GNB in vivo and in vitro. Twenty-four Col-R GNB were collected as the experimental strains. The synergistic activity of COL and KP was evaluated by checkerboard method, time-killing assays, and the Galleria mellonella experiment. The antibiofilm effectiveness of the COL/KP combination against Col-R GNB was assessed using biofilm inhibition and eradication assays and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Cytotoxicity tests were performed to detect the toxicity of KP monotherapy or combination therapy. There is synergistic antibacterial activity of COL and KP combination in vitro. KP combined with COL could inhibit the formation of bacterial biofilms. The amalgamation of COL and KP considerably reduced the amount of bacteria in the biofilm, according to the SEM findings. The COL/KP combination improved the survivorship of infected larvae in the G. mellonella in vivo infection model. In addition, the combination of KP and COL showed no cytotoxicity at synergistic combined concentrations according to cytotoxicity assays. This represents the first account of the antibacterial and antibiofilm activities of KP in combination with COL against Col-R GNB. Therefore, our results may provide an effective alternative route to combat Col-R GNB infections. IMPORTANCE COL is one of the few antibiotics effective against clinical isolates of GNB. However, in recent years, GNB resistance to colistin has been increasing. As a result, the combined application of colistin in conjunction with nonantibacterial medications has garnered considerable interest. In this work, the KP/COL combination showed effective antibacterial and antibiofilm activities in vitro and in vivo. The synergistic effect of combined application may be attributed to membrane permeability. Due to the low cytotoxicity of the combined concentration, the combination exhibits a promising future for use in clinical anti-infection treatments. This finding might broaden the potential applications for COL.
