Abstract
BACKGROUND Numerous cellular, humoral, and molecular processes are involved in the intricate process of wound healing. PHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Numerous bioactive substances, such as ß-sitosterol, tannic acid, gallic acid, protocatechuic acid, quercetin, ellagic acid, and pyrogallol, along with their pharmacokinetics and bioavailability, have been reviewed. These phytochemicals work together to promote angiogenesis, granulation, collagen synthesis, oxidative balance, extracellular matrix (ECM) formation, cell migration, proliferation, differentiation, and re-epithelialization during wound healing. FINDINGS AND NOVELTY To improve wound contraction, this review delves into how the application of each bioactive molecule mediates with the inflammatory, proliferative, and remodeling phases of wound healing to speed up the process. This review also reveals the underlying mechanisms of the phytochemicals against different stages of wound healing along with the differentiation of the in vitro evidence from the in vivo evidence There is growing interest in phytochemicals, or plant-derived compounds, due their potential health benefits. This calls for more scientific analysis and mechanistic research. The various pathways that these phytochemicals control/modulate to improve skin regeneration and wound healing are also briefly reviewed. The current review also elaborates the immunomodulatory modes of action of different phytochemicals during wound repair.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 278:134637. [PMID: 39128734 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.134637] [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: 06/23/2024] [Revised: 08/01/2024] [Accepted: 08/08/2024] [Indexed: 08/13/2024]
Abstract
Wounds are prone to infection which may be fatal to the life of the patient. The use of antibiotics is essential for managing bacterial infections in wounds, but the long-term use of high doses of antibiotics may lead to bacterial drug resistance and even to creation of superbacteria. Therefore, the development of targeted antimicrobial treatment strategies and the reduction in antibiotic usage are of utmost urgency. In this study, a multifunctional nanodrug delivery system (Cef-rhEGF@ZIF-8@ConA) for the treatment of bacteriostatic infection was synthesized through self-assembly of Zn2+, cefradine (Cef) and recombinant human epidermal growth factor (rhEGF), then conjugated with concanavalin (ConA), which undergoes pH-responsive degradation to release the drugs. First, ConA can specifically combine with bacteria and inhibit the rapid release of Zn2+ ions, thus achieving a long-acting antibacterial effect. Cef exerts its antibacterial effect by inhibiting the synthesis of bacterial membrane proteins. Finally, Zn2+ ions released from the Zn-metal-organic framework (MOF) demonstrate bacteriostatic properties by enhancing the permeability of the bacterial cell membrane. Furthermore, rhEGF upregulates angiogenesis-associated genes, thereby promoting angiogenesis, re-epithelialization and wound healing processes. The results showed that Cef-rhEGF@ZIF-8@ConA has good biocompatibility, with antibacterial efficacy against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli of 99.61 % and 99.75 %, respectively. These nanomaterials can inhibit the release of inflammatory cytokines and promote the release of anti-inflammatory cytokines, while also stimulating the proliferation of fibroblasts to facilitate wound healing. Taken together, the Cef-rhEGF@ZIF-8@ConA nanosystem is an excellent candidate in clinical therapeutics for bacteriostatic infection and wound healing.

A Zn-MOF-GOx-based cascade nanoreactor promotes diabetic infected wound healing by NO release and microenvironment regulation. Acta Biomater 2024; 182:245-259. [PMID: 38729545 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2024.05.015] [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: 01/23/2024] [Revised: 04/16/2024] [Accepted: 05/05/2024] [Indexed: 05/12/2024]
Abstract
Diabetic wound healing is a great clinical challenge due to the microenvironment of hyperglycemia and high pH value, bacterial infection and persistent inflammation. Here, we develop a cascade nanoreactor hydrogel (Arg@Zn-MOF-GOx Gel, AZG-Gel) with arginine (Arg) loaded Zinc metal organic framework (Zn-MOF) and glucose oxidase (GOx) based on chondroitin sulfate (CS) and Pluronic (F127) to accelerate diabetic infected wound healing. GOx in AZG-Gel was triggered by hyperglycemic environment to reduce local glucose and pH, and simultaneously produced hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to enable Arg-to release nitric oxide (NO) for inflammation regulation, providing a suitable microenvironment for wound healing. Zinc ions (Zn2+) released from acid-responsive Zn-MOF significantly inhibited the proliferation and biofilm formation of S.aureus and E.coli. AZG-Gel significantly accelerated diabetic infected wound healing by down-regulating pro-inflammatory tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and interleukin (IL)-6, up-regulating anti-inflammatory factor IL-4, promoting angiogenesis and collagen deposition in vivo. Collectively, our nanoreactor cascade strategy combining "endogenous improvement (reducing glucose and pH)" with "exogenous resistance (anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory)" provides a new idea for promoting diabetic infected wound healing by addressing both symptoms and root causes. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: A cascade nanoreactor (AZG-Gel) is constructed to solve three key problems in diabetic wound healing, namely, hyperglycemia and high pH microenvironment, bacterial infection and persistent inflammation. Local glucose and pH levels are reduced by GOx to provide a suitable microenvironment for wound healing. The release of Zn2+ significantly inhibits bacterial proliferation and biofilm formation, and NO reduces wound inflammation and promotes angiogenesis. The pH change when AZG-Gel is applied to wounds is expected to enable the visualization of wound healing to guide the treatment of diabetic wound. Our strategy of "endogenous improvement (reducing glucose and pH)" combined with "exogenous resistance (anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory)" provides a new way for promoting diabetic wound healing.

Abstract
Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) has emerged as a highly promising strategy for non-antibiotic treatment of infections due to its unique advantages in efficient bactericidal action and reduction of drug resistance. The natural photosensitizing properties of curcumin (Cur) are widely acknowledged; however, its limited bioavailability has impeded its practical application. In this study, we developed a nanomaterial called Cur@ZIF-8@BA by encapsulating Cur within ZIF-8 and modifying the surface with boric acid (BA). The Cur@ZIF-8@BA exhibits pH-responsive properties and enhances bacterial binding, thereby effectively promoting photodynamic therapy. Moreover, its antibacterial activity against E. coli, Staphylococcus aureus and A. baumannii is significantly increased in the presence of light compared to a dark environment. The mechanism behind this may be that BA increases the affinity of Cur@ZIF-8@BA towards bacteria, and making released Zn2+ and BA from the nanomaterial increase bacterial cell membrane permeability. This facilitates efficient delivery of Cur into bacterial cells, resulting in generation of abundant reactive oxygen species (ROS) and subsequent bactericidal activity. In conclusion, our prepared Cur@ZIF-8@BA holds great promise as a photodynamically mediated antimicrobial strategy.

Abstract
Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) can cause a variety of malignancies. Ganciclovir (GCV) is one of the most efficient drugs against KSHV, but its non-specificity can cause other side effects in patients. Nucleic acid miR-34a-5p can inhibit the transcription of KSHV RNA and has great potential in anti-KSHV therapy, but there are still problems such as easy degradation and low delivery efficiency. Here, we constructed a co-loaded dual-drug nanocomplex (GCV@ZIF-8/PEI-FA+miR-34a-5p) that contains GCV internally and adsorbs miR-34a-5p externally. The folic acid (FA)-coupled polyethyleneimine (PEI) coating layer (PEI-FA) was shown to increase the cellular uptake of the nanocomplex, which is conducive to the enrichment of drugs at the KSHV infection site. GCV and miR-34a-5p are released at the site of the KSHV infection through the acid hydrolysis characteristics of ZIF-8 and the "proton sponge effect" of PEI. The co-loaded dual-drug nanocomplex not only inhibits the proliferation and migration of KSHV-positive cells but also decreases the mRNA expression level of KSHV lytic and latent genes. In conclusion, this co-loaded dual-drug nanocomplex may provide an attractive strategy for antiviral drug delivery and anti-KSHV therapy.

Abstract
The aim of the presented study was to examine the in vitro antimicrobial activity of rutin hydrate (RH) alone and in combination with amikacin against 12 reference strains of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The antibacterial activity assay was evaluated in the concentration range of 2-2048 µg/mL. A serial microdilution method was used to determine the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of the examined compound against reference strains. RH showed varying potential against the tested strains with MICs ranging from 128 to 1024 µg/mL. In order to examine the combinatory profile of RH and amikacin, the fractional inhibitory concentrations (FICs) were determined. The RH-amikacin combination was more active against Gram-negative bacteria where four synergism and two additive interactions were noted. For four out of six Gram-positive isolates, an indifferent effect of RH and amikacin was demonstrated, and for two strains, the tested combination had an additive effect. The results of this study showed that RH possesses antimicrobial potential in vitro towards the tested reference isolates. Moreover, it shows a promising combined effect with amikacin against Gram-negative bacteria.

Abstract
The increasingly aging society led to a rise in the prevalence of chronic wounds (CWs), posing a significant burden to public health on a global scale. One of the key features of CWs is the presence of a maladjusted immune microenvironment characterized by persistent and excessive (hyper)inflammation. A variety of immunomodulatory therapies have been proposed to address this condition. Yet, to date, current delivery systems for immunomodulatory therapy remain inadequate and lack efficiency. This highlights the need for new therapeutic delivery systems, such as nanosystems, to manage the pathological inflammatory imbalance and, ultimately, improve the treatment outcomes of CWs. While a plethora of immunomodulatory nanosystems modifying the immune microenvironment of CWs have shown promising therapeutic effects, the literature on the intersection of immunomodulatory nanosystems and CWs remains relatively scarce. Therefore, this review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the pathogenesis and characteristics of the immune microenvironment in CWs, discuss important advancements in our understanding of CW healing, and delineate the versatility and applicability of immunomodulatory nanosystems-based therapies in the therapeutic management of CWs. In addition, we herein also shed light on the main challenges and future perspectives in this rapidly evolving research field.

Abstract
The primary goal of peri-implantitis treatments remains the decontamination of implant surfaces exposed to polymicrobial biofilms and renders biocompatibility. In this study, we reported a synergistic strategy for the debridement and re-osteogenesis of contaminated titanium by using erythritol air abrasion (AA) coupled with an as-synthesized pH-responsive antimicrobial agent. Here, the anionic antibacterial peptide Maximin H5 C-terminally deaminated isoform (MH5C) was introduced into the Zeolitic Imidazolate Frameworks (ZIF-8) via a one-pot synthesis process. The formed MH5C@ZIF-8 nanoparticles (NPs) not only possessed suitable stability, but also guarantee the slow-release effect of MH5C. Antibacterial experiments revealed that MH5C@ZIF-8 NPs exhibited excellent antimicrobial abilities toward pathogenic bacteria of peri-implantitis, confirming ZIF-8 NPs as efficient nanoplatforms for delivering antibacterial peptide. To evaluate the comprehensive debridement efficiency, single-species as well as mixed-species biofilms were successively established on commercially used titanium surfaces and decontaminated with different methods: removed only by erythritol air abrasion, treated merely with MH5C@ZIF-8 NPs, or received both managements. The results demonstrated that only erythritol air abrasion accompanied with MH5C@ZIF-8 NPs at high concentrations eliminated almost all retained bacteria and impeded biofilm rehabilitation, while neither erythritol air abrasion nor MH5C@ZIF-8 NPs alone could achieve this. Subsequently, we evaluated the re-osteogenesis on previously contaminated surfaces which were treated with different debridement methods afterwards. We found that cell growth and osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) in the group received both treatments (AA + MH5C@ZIF-8) were higher than those in other groups. Our work emphasized the great potential of the synergistic therapy as a credible alternative for removing microorganisms and rendering re-osseointegration on contaminated implant surfaces, boding well for the comprehensive applications in peri-implantitis treatments.
