Facile surface functional polyetheretherketone with antibacterial and immunoregulatory activities for enhanced regeneration toward bacterium-infected bone destruction.

ABSTRACT: Existing biologically inert or unmodified implants to treat infectious bone defects or osteomyelitis still cannot effectively solve bacterial infection and osseointegration. In this work, a simple co-deposition strategy was developed to modify porous polyetheretherketone (PEEK) with improved antibacterial activity and controllable immunoregulatory ability. After PEEK was treated by H₂SO₄ to obtain porous PEEK (SPEEK), the self-polymerization of dopamine was operated on SPEEK in the solution of dopamine and gentamicin sulfate (GS) to prepare polydopamine (pDA) and GS layer-modified SPEEK (labeled as SPEEK-pDA-GS). The morphology, surface property, and molecular structure of SPEEK-pDA-GS were investigated. Besides the antibacterial property of SPEEK-pDA-GS ascribed to the successful immobilization of GS, SPEEK-pDA-GS exhibited promoted osseointegration through the results of mineralization, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels and osteogenic gene expression. Furthermore, the evaluation of the cell proliferation suggested that SPEEK-pDA-GS possessed the biocompatibility and the immunoregulatory ability that induced macrophages to anti-inflammatory M2 phenotype. Using rat as model, in vivo results containing X-ray, μ-CT, immunohistochemistry, and pathological analysis showed the excellent healing effect of SPEEK-pDA-GS on bone defect with infection with biological safety. This work illustrates a new insight into the simple and effective modification of PEEK and other implants with antibacterial, immunoregulatory, and osseointegration abilities for clinical requirement.

Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) Implant for the Reconstruction of Severe Destruction in the Maxilla: Case Report.

Project description:Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) implants are being increasingly used to reconstruct defects in the oral and maxillofacial region. This article reports a special case of a patient with major destruction in his maxilla due to a war injury. The resultant defect was reconstructed with a 3D-printed, patient-specific, PEEK implant, restoring acceptable function and aesthetics. The patient followed up for 13 months and showed no technical or biological complications, proving the reliability of this treatment option for recreating severe maxillofacial deformities, and benefiting from the advantage they offer, which is eliminating the need for additional surgery to harvest autogenous bone grafts. Thus, when applicable, the use of PEEK implants could be a possible alternative to other treatment modalities.

Facile synthesis of hollow spherical g-C3N4@LDH/NCQDs ternary nanostructure for multifunctional antibacterial and photodegradation activities

Project description:Summary Heterojunction nanostructure construction and morphology engineering are considered to be effective approaches to improve photocatalytic performance. Herein, ternary hierarchical hollow structures consisting of cobalt-aluminum-layered double hydroxide (CoAl-LDH) nanoplates grown on hollow carbon nitride spheres (HCNS) and decorated with N-doped carbon quantum dots (NCQDs) were prepared using a templating method and a subsequent solvothermal process. The obtained HCNS@LDH/NCQD composites presented an improved performance in photocatalytic degradation of tetracycline and inactivation of E. coli compared with pure HCNS and LDH under visible light illumination. The enhanced photocatalytic activity of the designed photocatalyst could be attributed to the following reasons: (1) A special hollow structure provides more active sites and has multiple capabilities of light reflection by helping with a high specific surface area that improves the harvesting efficiency of solar light and (2) the strong synergistic effect among the constituents, which promotes separation and transfer of charge carriers and broadens the photo-response range. Graphical abstract Highlights • Novel LDH@N-HCS/CN photocatalyst was successfully fabricated• LDH@N-HCS/CN demonstrated high photocatalytic activity for NP degradation• The tailored photocatalyst showed excellent stability and reusability Materials synthesis; Nanomaterials; Photoabsorption

Multifunctionalized carbon-fiber-reinforced polyetheretherketone implant for rapid osseointegration under infected environment.

Project description:Carbon fiber reinforced polyetheretherketone (CFRPEEK) possesses a similar elastic modulus to that of human cortical bone and is considered as a promising candidate to replace metallic implants. However, the bioinertness and deficiency of antibacterial activities impede its application in orthopedic and dentistry. In this work, titanium plasma immersion ion implantation (Ti-PIII) is applied to modify CFRPEEK, achieving unique multi-hierarchical nanostructures and active sites on the surface. Then, hybrid polydopamine (PDA)@ZnO-EDN1 nanoparticles (NPs) are introduced to construct versatile surfaces with improved osteogenic and angiogenic properties and excellent antibacterial properties. Our study established that the modified CFRPEEK presented favorable stability and cytocompatibility. Compared with bare CFRPEEK, improved osteogenic differentiation of rat mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and vascularization of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) are found on the functionalized surface due to the zinc ions and EDN1 releasing. In vitro bacteriostasis assay confirms that hybrid PDA@ZnO NPs on the functionalized surface provided an effective antibacterial effect. Moreover, the rat infected model corroborates the enhanced antibiosis and osteointegration of the functionalized CFRPEEK. Our findings indicate that the multilevel nanostructured PDA@ZnO-EDN1 coated CFRPEEK with enhanced antibacterial, angiogenic, and osteogenic capacity has great potential as an orthopedic/dental implant material for clinical application.

Characterization and Bioactivity Evaluation of (Polyetheretherketone/Polyglycolicacid)-Hydroyapatite Scaffolds for Tissue Regeneration.

Project description:Bioactivity and biocompatibility are crucial for tissue engineering scaffolds. In this study, hydroxyapatite (HAP) was incorporated into polyetheretherketone/polyglycolicacid (PEEK/PGA) hybrid to improve its biological properties, and the composite scaffolds were developed via selective laser sintering (SLS). The effects of HAP on physical and chemical properties of the composite scaffolds were investigated. The results demonstrated that HAP particles were distributed evenly in PEEK/PGA matrix when its content was no more than 10 wt %. Furthermore, the apatite-forming ability became better with increasing HAP content after immersing in simulated body fluid (SBF). Meanwhile, the composite scaffolds presented a greater degree of cell attachment and proliferation than PEEK/PGA scaffolds. These results highlighted the potential of (PEEK/PGA)-HAP scaffolds for tissue regeneration.

A Facile Method for the Fabrication of Silver Nanoparticles Surface Decorated Polyvinyl Alcohol Electrospun Nanofibers and Controllable Antibacterial Activities.

Project description:Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) electrospun nanofibers (NFs) are ideal carriers for loading silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) serving as antibacterial materials. However, it is still a challenge to adjust the particles size, distribution, and loading density via a convenient and facile method in order to obtain tunable structure and antimicrobial activities. In this study, Ag NPs surface decorated PVA composite nanofibers (Ag/PVA CNFs) were fabricated by the solvothermal method in ethylene glycol, which plays the roles of both reductant and solvent. The morphology and structure of the as-fabricated Ag/PVA CNFs were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, selected area electron diffraction, X-ray diffraction, UV-visible spectroscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Ag NPs had an average diameter of 30 nm, the narrowest size distribution and the highest loading density were successfully decorated on the surfaces of PVA NFs, at the AgNO3 concentration of 0.066 mol/L. The antibacterial properties were evaluated by the methods of absorption, turbidity, and growth curves. The as-fabricated Ag/PVA hybrid CNFs exhibit excellent antimicrobial activities with antibacterial rates over 98%, especially for the sample prepared with AgNO3 concentration of 0.066 mol/L. Meanwhile, the antibacterial effects are more significant in the Gram-positive bacteria of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) than the Gram-negative bacteria of Escherichia coli (E. coli), since PVA is more susceptive to S. aureus. In summary, the most important contribution of this paper is the discovery that the particles size, distribution, and loading density of Ag NPs on PVA NFs can be easily controlled by adjusting AgNO3 concentrations, which has a significant impact on the antibacterial activities of Ag/PVA CNFs.

Green, facile and fast synthesis of silver nanoparticles by using solution plasma techniques and their antibacterial and anticancer activities.

Project description:We herein present a simple, fast, efficient and environmentally friendly method for preparing silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using the solution plasma method in the presence of extracts from Paramignya trimera (P. trimera). The effects of P. trimera extract concentrations and the applied voltage on the formation of AgNPs were investigated. Surface plasmon resonance spectra show a strong peak at 413 nm for the prepared samples. The Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy measurement results indicated the presence of possible functional groups in the prepared AgNPs. Morphological analysis revealed that the AgNPs were spherical with an average size of 8 nm. The prepared AgNPs exhibited good stability in solution compared to that of AgNPs prepared by the solution plasma technique without P. trimera extract. The formation mechanism of AgNPs is also proposed. The prepared AgNPs exhibited high antibacterial ability against Gram (+) Staphylococcus aureus, Gram (-) Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria and strong anticancer activity for the AGS gastric cancer cell line. The obtained results demonstrated that this is a simple, rapid, environmentally friendly method for preparing AgNPs instead of conventional methods using chemical reducing agents for potential applications.

A symbiotic bacterium of Antarctic fish reveals environmental adaptability mechanisms and biosynthetic potential towards antibacterial and cytotoxic activities.

Project description:Antarctic microbes are important agents for evolutionary adaptation and natural resource of bioactive compounds, harboring the particular metabolic pathways to biosynthesize natural products. However, not much is known on symbiotic microbiomes of fish in the Antarctic zone. In the present study, the culture method and whole-genome sequencing were performed. Natural product analyses were carried out to determine the biosynthetic potential. We report the isolation and identification of a symbiotic bacterium Serratia myotis L7-1, that is highly adaptive and resides within Antarctic fish, Trematomus bernacchii. As revealed by genomic analyses, Antarctic strain S. myotis L7-1 possesses carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes), biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs), stress response genes, antibiotic resistant genes (ARGs), and a complete type IV secretion system which could facilitate competition and colonization in the extreme Antarctic environment. The identification of microbiome gene clusters indicates the biosynthetic potential of bioactive compounds. Based on bioactivity-guided fractionation, serranticin was purified and identified as the bioactive compound, showing significant antibacterial and antitumor activity. The serranticin gene cluster was identified and located on the chrome. Furthermore, the multidrug resistance and strong bacterial antagonism contribute competitive advantages in ecological niches. Our results highlight the existence of a symbiotic bacterium in Antarctic fish largely represented by bioactive natural products and the adaptability to survive in the fish living in Antarctic oceans.

Ganglion cell regeneration following whole-retina destruction in zebrafish.

Project description:The retinas of adult teleost fish can regenerate neurons following injury. The current study provides the first documentation of functional whole retina regeneration in the zebrafish, Danio rerio, following intraocular injection of the cytotoxin, ouabain. Loss and replacement of laminated retinal tissue was monitored by analysis of cell death and cell proliferation, and by analysis of retina-specific gene expression patterns. The spatiotemporal process of retinal ganglion cell (RGC) regeneration was followed through the use of selective markers, and was found to largely recapitulate the spatiotemporal process of embryonic ganglion cell neurogenesis, over a more protracted time frame. However, the re-expression of some ganglion cell markers was not observed. The growth and pathfinding of ganglion cell axons was evaluated by measurement of the optic nerve head (ONH), and the restoration of normal ONH size was found to correspond to the time of recovery of two visually-mediated behaviors. However, some abnormalities were noted, including overproduction of RGCs, and progressive and excessive growth of the ONH at longer recovery times. This model system for whole-retina regeneration has provided an informative view of the regenerative process.

Zinc-Modified Sulfonated Polyetheretherketone Surface with Immunomodulatory Function for Guiding Cell Fate and Bone Regeneration.

Project description:The cytokines released by immune cells are considered important factors to induce bone tissue regeneration. However, the pathway of those bone-targeting macrophage cytokines induced by biomaterial surface under tissue microenvironment is rarely reported. In this study, the immunomodulatory capability of zinc ions on macrophage polarization and its effects on osteogenic differentiation are investigated. Hence, a layer of zinc ions are incorporated on sulfonated polyetheretherketone (SPEEK) biomaterials by using a customized magnetron sputtering technique. The results reveal that the microenvironment on Zn-coated SPEEK can modulate nonactivated macrophage polarization to an anti-inflammatory phenotype and induce the secretion of anti-inflammatory and osteogenic cytokines. The osteogenic differentiation capability of bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) is therefore enhanced, leading to improved osteointegration between the zinc-coated SPEEK and bone tissue. This study verifies that zinc ion is a promising additive in the osteoimmunomodulation process and provides knowledge that may pave the way to develop the next generation of immunomodulatory biomaterials.
