Manganese silicate nanospheres-incorporated hydrogels：starvation therapy and tissue regeneration.

ABSTRACT: To prevent postoperative skin tumor recurrence and repair skin wound, a glucose oxidase (GOx)-loaded manganese silicate hollow nanospheres (MS HNSs)-incorporated alginate hydrogel (G/MS-SA) was constructed for starvation-photothermal therapy and skin tissue regeneration. The MS HNSs showed a photothermal conversion efficiency of 38.5%, and endowed composite hydrogels with satisfactory photothermal effect. Taking advantage of the catalytic activity of Mn ions, the composite hydrogels could decompose hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) into oxygen (O₂), which can alleviate the problem of tumor hypoxia microenvironment and endow GOx with an ability to consume glucose in the presence of O₂ for tumor starvation. Meanwhile, hyperthermia triggered by near infrared (NIR) irradiation could not only accelerate the reaction rate of H₂O₂ decomposition by MS HNSs and glucose consumption by GOx, but also ablate tumor cells. The anti-tumor results showed that synergistic effect of starvation-photothermal therapy led to the highest death rate of tumor cells among all groups, and its anti-tumor effect was obviously improved as compared with that of single photothermal treatment or starvation treatment. Interestingly, the introduction of MS HNSs into hydrogels could distinctly promote the epithelialization of the wound beds by releasing Mn ions as compared with the hydrogels without MS HNSs. It is expected that such a multifunctional platform with starvation-photothermal therapy will be promising for treating tumor-caused skin defects in combination of its regeneration bioactivity in the future.

Project description:Electrospinning technique has attracted considerable attention in fabrication of cellulose nanofibrils or nanocellulose membranes, in which polycaprolactone (PCL) could be used as a promising precursor to prepare various cellulose nanofibril membranes for periodontal tissue regeneration. Conventional bio-membranes and cellulose films used in guided tissue regeneration (GTR) can prevent the downgrowth of epithelial cells, fibroblasts, and connective tissue in the area of tooth root but have limitations related to osteogenic and antimicrobial properties. Cellulose nanofibrils can be used as an ideal drug delivery material to encapsulate and carry some drugs. In this study, magnesium oxide (MgO) nanoparticles-incorporated PCL/gelatin core-shell nanocellulose periodontal membranes were fabricated using coaxial electrospinning technique, which was termed as Coaxial-MgO. The membranes using single-nozzle electrospinning technique, namely Blending-MgO and Blending-Blank, were used as control. The morphology and physicochemical property of these nanocellulose membranes were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive spectrum of X-ray (EDS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), contact angle, and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The results showed that the incorporation of MgO nanoparticles barely affected the morphology and mechanical property of nanocellulose membranes. Coaxial-MgO with core-shell fiber structure had better hydrophilic property and sustainable release of magnesium ion (Mg2+). CCK-8 cell proliferation and EdU staining demonstrated that Coaxial-MgO membranes showed better human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) proliferation rates compared with the other group due to its gelatin shell with great biocompatibility and hydrophilicity. SEM and immunofluorescence assay results illustrated that the Coaxial-MgO scaffold significantly enhanced hPDLSCs adhesion. In vitro osteogenic and antibacterial properties showed that Coaxial-MgO membrane enhanced alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, formation of mineralized nodules, osteogenic-related genes [ALP, collagen type 1 (COL1), runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2)], and high antibacterial properties toward Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans (A. a) when compared with controls. Our findings suggested that MgO nanoparticles-incorporated coaxial electrospinning PCL-derived nanocellulose periodontal membranes might have great prospects for periodontal tissue regeneration.

Project description:BackgroundWhite Portland cement is a calcium silicate material. It exhibits antibacterial properties and is biocompatible. In addition, calcium silicate-based materials are known to release calcium ions and form apatite. The purpose of this study was to develop a novel bioactive restorative resin composite with antibacterial and apatite forming properties to prevent tooth caries at the interface of teeth and restorative materials, by incorporation of hydrated calcium silicate (hCS) derived from white Portland cement.MethodsTo prepare the experimental composite resins, a 30 wt% light-curable resin matrix and 70 wt% filler, which was mixed with hCS and silanized glass powder were prepared in following concentrations: 0, 17.5, 35.0, and 52.5 wt% hCS filler. The depth of cure, flexural strength, water sorption, solubility, and antibacterial effect were tested. After immersion in artificial saliva solution for 15, 30, 60, and 90 days, ion concentration by ICP-MS and apatite formation using SEM-EDS, Raman spectroscopy and XRD from experimental specimens were analyzed.ResultsAll experimental groups showed clinically acceptable depths of cure and flexural strength for the use as the restorative composite resin. Water sorption, solubility, released Ca and Si ions increased with the addition of hCS to the experimental composite resin. Experimental groups containing hCS showed greater antibacterial effects compared with the 0 wt% hCS filler group (p < 0.05). The 52.5 wt% hCS filler group produced precipitates mainly composed of Ca and P detected as hydroxyapatite after immersion in artificial saliva solution for 30, 60, and 90 days.ConclusionsThis results show that composite resins containing hCS filler is effective in antibacterial effects. hCS has also apatite formation ability for reducing gap size of microleakage by accumulating hydroxyapatite precipitates at the restoration-tooth interface. Therefore, novel composite resin containing hCS is promising bioactive resin because of its clinically acceptable physiochemical properties, antibacterial properties, and self-sealing potential for prevention of microleakage for longer usage of restorations.

Project description:This article presents a comprehensive study of the development of a novel nanocomposite comprising core-shell Fe3O4@MCM-41 with superparamagnetic properties and hydroxyapatite (HAp). The nanocomposite serves as a pH-responsive nanocarrier, offering an efficient injectable dosage for teriparatide (PTH (1-34)) delivery. The aim is to address the limitations associated with drug-induced side effects, precautionary measures, and frequent injections. The nanocomposites, as prepared, were characterized using techniques including X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared, zeta potential, dynamic light scattering, VSM, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. The nanocomposites' average crystallite diameter was determined to be 27 ± 5 nm. The hydrodynamic size of the PTH (1-34)-loaded nanocarrier ranged from 357 to 495 nm, with a surface charge of -33 mV. The entrapment and loading efficiencies were determined to be 73% and 31%, respectively. All of these findings collectively affirm successful fabrication. Additionally, in vivo medication delivery was investigated using the HPLC method, mirroring the in vitro tests. Utilizing the dialysis approach, we demonstrated sustained-release behavior. PTH (1-34) diffusion increased as the pH decreased from 7.4 to 5.6. After 24 h, drug release was higher at acidic pH (88%) compared to normal pH (43%). The biocompatibility of the PTH (1-34)-loaded nanocarrier was assessed using the MTT assay employing the NIH3T3 and HEK-293 cell lines. The results demonstrated that the nanocarrier not only exhibited nontoxicity but also promoted cell proliferation and differentiation. In the in vivo test, the drug concentration reached 505 μg within 30 min of exposure to the magnetic field. Based on these findings, the Fe3O4@MCM-41/HAp/PTH (1-34) nanocomposite, in combination with a magnetic field, offers an efficient and biocompatible approach to enhance the therapeutic effect of osteogenesis and overcome drug limitations.
