Electrochemically modulated nitric oxide (NO) releasing biomedical devices via copper(II)-Tri(2-pyridylmethyl)amine mediated reduction of nitrite.

ABSTRACT: A controllable and inexpensive electrochemical nitric oxide (NO) release system is demonstrated to improve hemocompatibility and reduce bacterial biofilm formation on biomedical devices. Nitric oxide is produced from the electrochemical reduction of nitrite using a copper(II)-tri(2-pyridylmethyl)amine (Cu(II)TPMA) complex as a mediator, and the temporal profile of NO release can be modulated readily by applying different cathodic potentials. Single lumen and dual lumen silicone rubber catheters are employed as initial model biomedical devices incorporating this novel NO release approach. The modified catheters can release a steady, physiologically-relevant flux of NO for more than 7 days. Both single and dual lumen catheters with continuous NO release exhibit greatly reduced thrombus formation on their surfaces after short-term 7-h intravascular placement in rabbit veins (p < 0.02, n = 6). Three day in vitro antimicrobial experiments, in which the catheters are "turned on" for only 3 h of NO release each day, exhibit more than a 100-fold decrease in the amount of surface attached live bacteria (n = 5). These results suggest that this electrochemical NO generation system could provide a robust and highly effective new approach to improving the thromboresistance and antimicrobial properties of intravascular catheters and potentially other biomedical devices.

Comparison of Copper(II)-Ligand Complexes as Mediators for Preparing Electrochemically Modulated Nitric Oxide-Releasing Catheters.

Project description:Further studies aimed at examining the activity of different Cu(II)-ligand complexes to serve as electron-transfer mediators to prepare novel antimicrobial/thromboresistant nitric oxide (NO)-releasing intravenous catheters are reported. In these devices, the NO release can be modulated by applying different potentials or currents to reduce the Cu(II)-complexes to Cu(I) species which then reduce nitrite ions into NO(g) within a lumen of the catheter. Four different ligands are compared with respect to NO generation efficiency and stability over time using both single- and dual-lumen silicone rubber catheters: N-propanoate- N, N-bis(2-pyridylethyl)amine (BEPA-Pr), N-propanoate- N, N-bis(2-pyridylmethyl)amine (BMPA-Pr), 1,4,7-trimethyl-1,4,7-triazacyclononane (Me3TACN), and tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine (TPMA). Of these, the Cu(II)BEPA-Pr and Cu(II)Me3TACN complexes provide biomedically useful NO fluxes from the surface of the catheters, >2 × 10-10 mol·min-1·cm-2, under conditions mimicking the bloodstream environment. Cu(II)Me3TACN exhibits the best stability over time with a steady and continuous NO release observed for 8 d under a nitrogen atmosphere. Antimicrobial experiments conducted over 5 d with NO-releasing catheters turned "on" electrochemically for only 3 or 6 h each day revealed >2 logarithmic units in reduction of bacterial biofilm attached to the catheter surfaces. The use of optimal Cu(II)-ligand complexes within a lumen reservoir along with high levels of nitrite ions can potentially provide an effective method of preventing/decreasing the rate of infections caused by intravascular catheters.

Electrochemically Modulated Nitric Oxide Release From Flexible Silicone Rubber Patch: Antimicrobial Activity For Potential Wound Healing Applications.

Project description:Herein, we report a novel design and the antimicrobial efficacy of a flexible nitric oxide (NO) releasing patch for potential wound healing applications. The compact sized polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) planar patch generates NO via electrochemical reduction of nitrite ions mediated by a copper(II)-ligand catalyst using a portable power system and an internal gold coated stainless steel mesh working electrode. Patches are fabricated via soft lithography and 3-D printing. The devices can continuously release NO over 4 days and exhibit potent bactericidal effects on both Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. The device may provide an effective, safe, and less costly alternative for treating chronic wounds.

Liquid-infused nitric oxide-releasing (LINORel) silicone for decreased fouling, thrombosis, and infection of medical devices.

Project description:Recent reports on liquid-infused materials have shown promise in creating ultra-low fouling surfaces, but are limited in their ability to prevent bacterial proliferation and prevent platelet activation in blood-contacting applications. In this work, a liquid-infused nitric oxide-releasing (LINORel) material is created by incorporating the nitric oxide (NO) donor S-nitroso-acetylpenicillamine (SNAP) and silicone oil in commercial medical grade silicone rubber tubing through a solvent swelling process. This combination provides several key advantages over previous NO-releasing materials, including decreased leaching of NO donor, controlled release of NO, and maintenance of ultra-low fouling property of liquid-infused materials. The LINORel tubing reduces protein adhesion as observed using fluorescence imaging, and platelet adhesion (81.7 ± 2.5%) in vitro over a 2 h period. The LINORel combination greatly reduces bacterial adhesion and biofilm formation of two most common pathogens responsible for hospital acquired infections: gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus and gram-negative Pseudomonas aeruginosa (99.3 ± 1.9% and 88.5 ± 3.3% respectively) over a 7-day period in a CDC bioreactor environment. Overall, the LINORel approach provides a synergistic combination of active and passive non-fouling approaches to increase biocompatibility and reduce infection associated with medical devices.

Nitric Oxide-Releasing Cyclodextrins.

Project description:A series of secondary amine-modified cyclodextrin (CD) derivatives was synthesized with diverse exterior terminal groups (i.e., hydroxyl, methyl, methoxyl, and primary amine). Subsequent reaction with nitric oxide (NO) gas under alkaline conditions yielded N-diazeniumdiolate-modified CD derivatives. Adjustable NO payloads (0.6-2.4 ?mol/mg) and release half-lives (0.7-4.2 h) were achieved by regulating both the amount of secondary amine precursors and the functional groups around the NO donors. The bactericidal action of these NO-releasing cyclodextrin derivatives was evaluated against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a Gram-negative pathogen, with antibacterial activity proving dependent on both the NO payload and exterior modification. Materials containing a high density of NO donors or primary amines exhibited the greatest ability to eradicate P. aeruginosa. Of the materials prepared, only the primary amine-terminated heptasubstituted CD derivatives exhibited toxicity against mammalian L929 mouse fibroblast cells. The NO donor-modified CD was also capable of delivering promethazine, a hydrophobic drug, thus demonstrating potential as a dual-drug-releasing therapeutic.

Nitric Oxide-Releasing Alginates.

Project description:Low and high molecular weight alginate biopolymers were chemically modified to store and release potentially therapeutic levels of nitric oxide (NO). Carbodiimide chemistry was first used to modify carboxylic acid functional groups with a series of small molecule alkyl amines. The resulting secondary amines were subsequently converted to N-diazeniumdiolate NO donors via reaction with NO gas under basic conditions. NO donor-modified alginates stored between 0.4-0.6 μmol NO·mg-1. In aqueous solution, the NO-release kinetics were diverse (0.3-13 h half-lives), dependent on the precursor amine structure. The liberated NO showed bactericidal activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus with pathogen eradication efficiency dependent on both molecular weight and NO-release kinetics. The combination of lower molecular weight (∼5 kDa) alginates with moderate NO-release durations (half-life of ∼4 h) resulted in enhanced killing of both planktonic and biofilm-based bacteria. Toxicity against human respiratory epithelial (A549) cells proved negligible at NO-releasing alginate concentrations required to achieve a 5-log reduction in viability in the biofilm eradication assay.

Nitric oxide-releasing porous silicon nanoparticles.

Project description:In this study, the ability of porous silicon nanoparticles (PSi NPs) to entrap and deliver nitric oxide (NO) as an effective antibacterial agent is tested against different Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. NO was entrapped inside PSi NPs functionalized by means of the thermal hydrocarbonization (THC) process. Subsequent reduction of nitrite in the presence of d-glucose led to the production of large NO payloads without reducing the biocompatibility of the PSi NPs with mammalian cells. The resulting PSi NPs demonstrated sustained release of NO and showed remarkable antibacterial efficiency and anti-biofilm-forming properties. These results will set the stage to develop antimicrobial nanoparticle formulations for applications in chronic wound treatment.

Nitric oxide-releasing electrospun polymer microfibers.

Project description:The preparation of electrospun polymer microfibers with nitric oxide (NO)-release capabilities is described. Polymer solutions containing disodium 1-[2-(carboxylato)pyrrolidin-1-yl]diazen-1-ium-1,2-diolate (PROLI/NO), a low-molecular-weight NO donor, were electrospun to generate fibers ranging from 100-3000 nm in diameter capable of releasing NO upon immersion in aqueous solutions under physiological conditions (pH 7.4, 37 °C), with kinetics depending on polymer composition and fiber diameter. The NO release half-life for PROLI/NO-doped electrospun fibers was 2-200 times longer than that of PROLI/NO alone. The influence of polymer concentration, applied voltage, capillary diameter, solution conductivity, flow rate, and additives on fiber properties are reported and discussed with respect to potential applications.

Selective Release of Aromatic Heterocycles from Ruthenium Tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine with Visible Light.

Project description:Three complexes of the general formula [Ru(TPA)L2](PF6)2 [TPA = tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine], where L = pyridine (1), nicotinamide (2), and imidazole (3), were prepared and characterized spectroscopically. X-ray crystallographic data were obtained for 1 and 3. Complexes 1-3 show strong absorption in the visible region and selective release of heterocycles upon irradiation with visible light. Time-dependent density functional theory calculations are consistent with the presence of singlet metal-to-ligand charge-transfer bands in the visible region in 1-3. Caged heterocycles 1-3 are highly stable in solution in the dark, including in cell growth media. Cell viability data show no signs of toxicity of 1-3 against PC-3 cells at concentrations up to 100 μM under light and dark conditions, consistent with Ru(TPA) acting as a nontoxic and effective photocaging group for aromatic heterocycles.
