Iron oxide nanoparticles with photothermal performance and enhanced nanozyme activity for bacteria-infected wound therapy.

ABSTRACT: Metal-based nanomaterials usually have broad-spectrum antibacterial properties, low biological toxicity and no drug resistance due to their intrinsic enzyme-like catalytic properties and external field (magnetic, thermal, acoustic, optical and electrical) responsiveness. Herein, iron oxide (Fe₃O₄) nanoparticles (IONPs) synthesized by us have good biosafety, excellent photothermal conversion ability and peroxidase-like catalytic activity, which can be used to construct a photothermal-enzymes combined antibacterial treatment platform. IONPs with peroxide-like catalytic activity can induce H₂O₂ to catalyze the production of •OH in a slightly acidic environment, thus achieving certain bactericidal effects and increasing the sensitivity of bacteria to heat. When stimulated by near-infrared light, the photothermal effect could destroy bacterial cell membranes, resulting in cleavage and inactivation of bacterial protein, DNA or RNA. Meanwhile, it can also improve the catalytic activity of peroxidase-like and promote IONPs to catalyze the production of more •OH for killing bacteria. After IONPs synergistic treatment, the antibacterial rate of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus reached nearly 100%. It also has an obvious killing effect on bacteria in infected wounds of mice and can effectively promote the healing of S. aureus-infected wounds, which has great application potential in clinical anti-infection treatment.

Copper single-atom catalysts with photothermal performance and enhanced nanozyme activity for bacteria-infected wound therapy.

Project description:Nanozymes have become a new generation of antibiotics with exciting broad-spectrum antibacterial properties and negligible biological toxicity. However, their inherent low catalytic activity limits their antibacterial properties. Herein, Cu single-atom sites/N doped porous carbon (Cu SASs/NPC) is successfully constructed for photothermal-catalytic antibacterial treatment by a pyrolysis-etching-adsorption-pyrolysis (PEAP) strategy. Cu SASs/NPC have stronger peroxidase-like catalytic activity, glutathione (GSH)-depleting function, and photothermal property compared with non-Cu-doped NPC, indicating that Cu doping significantly improves the catalytic performance of nanozymes. Cu SASs/NPC can effectively induce peroxidase-like activity in the presence of H2O2, thereby generating a large amount of hydroxyl radicals (•OH), which have a certain killing effect on bacteria and make bacteria more susceptible to temperature. The introduction of near-infrared (NIR) light can generate hyperthermia to fight bacteria, and enhance the peroxidase-like catalytic activity, thereby generating additional •OH to destroy bacteria. Interestingly, Cu SASs/NPC can act as GSH peroxidase (GSH-Px)-like nanozymes, which can deplete GSH in bacteria, thereby significantly improving the sterilization effect. PTT-catalytic synergistic antibacterial strategy produces almost 100% antibacterial efficiency against Escherichia coli (E. coli) and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). In vivo experiments show a better PTT-catalytic synergistic therapeutic performance on MRSA-infected mouse wounds. Overall, our work highlights the wide antibacterial and anti-infective bio-applications of Cu single-atom-containing catalysts.

Photothermal Regulated Nanozyme of CuFeS<sub>2</sub> Nanoparticles for Efficiently Promoting Wound Healing Infected by Multidrug Resistant Bacteria.

Project description:Peroxidase-mediated chemokinetic therapy (CDT) can effectively resist bacteria; however, factors such as the high dosage of drugs seriously limit the antibacterial effect. Herein, CuFeS2 nanoparticles (NPs) nanozyme antibacterial system with the photothermal effect and peroxidase-like catalytic activity are proposed as a combined antibacterial agent with biosafety, high-efficiency, and broad-spectrum antibacterial ability. In addition, the as-obtained CuFeS2 NPs with a low doses of Cu+ and Fe3+ can change the permeability of bacterial cell membranes and break the antioxidant balance by consuming intracellular glutathione (GSH), which results in more conducive ROS production. Meanwhile, the photothermal heating can regulate the CuFeS2 NPs close to their optimal reaction temperature (60 °C) to release more hydroxyl radical in low concentrations of H2O2 (100 µM). The proposed CuFeS2 NPs-based antibacterial system achieve more than 99% inactivation efficiency of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (106 CFU mL-1 MRSA), hyperspectral bacteria β-Escherichia coli (106 CFU mL-1 ESBL) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (106 CFU mL-1 PA), even at low concentration (2 μg mL-1), which is superior to those of the conventional CuO NPs at 4 mg mL-1 reported in the literature. In vivo experiments further confirm that CuFeS2 NPs can effectively treat wounds infected by MRSA and promote the wound healing. This study demonstrates that excellent antibacterial ability and good biocompatibility make CuFeS2 NPs a potential anti-infection nanozyme with broad application prospects.

Iron-Single-Atom Nanozyme with NIR Enhanced Catalytic Activities for Facilitating MRSA-Infected Wound Therapy.

Project description:Patients with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections may have higher death rates than those with non-drug-resistant infections. Nanozymes offer a promising approach to eliminating bacteria by producing reactive oxygen species. However, most of the conventional nanozyme technologies encounter significant challenges with respect to size, composition, and a naturally low number of active sites. The present study synthesizes a iron-single-atom structure (Fe-SAC) via nitrogen doped-carbon, a Fe-N5 catalyst (Fe-SAC) with a high metal loading (4.3 wt.%). This catalyst permits the development of nanozymes consisting of single-atom structures with active sites resembling enzymes, embedded within nanomaterials. Fe-SAC displays peroxidase-like activities upon exposure to H2O2. This structure facilitates the production of hydroxyl radicals, well-known for their strong bactericidal effects. Furthermore, the photothermal properties augment the bactericidal efficacy of Fe-SAC. The findings reveal that Fe-SAC disrupts the bacterial cell membranes and the biofilms, contributing to their antibacterial effects. The bactericidal properties of Fe-SAC are harnessed, which eradicates the MRSA infections in wounds and improves wound healing. Taken together, these findings suggest that single Fe atom nanozymes offer a novel perspective on the catalytic mechanism and design, holding immense potential as next-generation nanozymes.

Atomically dispersed nanozyme-based synergistic mild photothermal/nanocatalytic therapy for eradicating multidrug-resistant bacteria and accelerating infected wound healing.

Project description:Constructing a synergistic multiple-modal antibacterial platform for multi-drug-resistant (MDR) bacterial eradication and effective treatment of infected wounds remains an important and challenging goal. Herein, we developed a multifunctional Cu/Mn dual single-atom nanozyme (Cu/Mn-DSAzymes)-based synergistic mild photothermal/nanocatalytic-therapy for a MDR bacterium-infected wound. Cu/Mn-DSAzymes with collaborative effects exhibit remarkable dual CAT-like and OXD-like enzyme activities and could efficiently catalyze cascade enzymatic reactions with a low level of H2O2 as an initial reactant to produce reparative O2 and lethal ˙O2-. Moreover, a black N-doped carbon nanosheet supports of Cu/Mn-DSAzymes show superior NIR-II-triggered photothermal performance, endowing them with photothermal-enhanced dual enzyme catalysis. In addition, such enhanced dual enzyme catalysis likely improves the susceptibility and lethality of photothermal effects on MDR bacteria. In vitro and in vivo studies demonstrate that Cu/Mn-DSAzyme-mediated synergistic nanocatalytic and photothermal effects possess dramatic antibacterial outcomes against MDR bacteria and evidently reduced inflammation at wound sites. Moreover, the combined photothermal effect and O2 release mediated by Cu/Mn-DSAzymes promotes macrophage polarization to reparative M2 phenotype, collagen deposition, and angiogenesis, considerably accelerating wound healing. Therefore, Cu/Mn-DSAzyme-based synergetic dual-modal antibacterial therapy is a promising strategy for MDR bacterium-infected wound treatment, owing to their excellent antibacterial ability and significant tissue remodeling effects.

Fluoride-activated photothermal system for promoting bacteria-infected wound healing.

Project description:Although photothermal therapy (PTT) employing nanozymes has shown excellent antibacterial potential, excessive heating generally harms host cells and hinders recovery. Herein, we report an innovative technique for acquiring the programmed temperature by managing the catalytic activity of nanozymes. The photothermal system of CeO2 + F- + TMB can obtain precise photothermal temperature by adjusting the concentration of fluoride ions under near-infrared irradiation. At the optimized photothermal temperature, the photothermal system affords fine photothermal antibacterial treatment with high-efficiency antibacterial effects against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli in vitro. In vivo wound healing experiments confirm that the system can effectively promote fibroblast proliferation, angiogenesis and collagen deposition with remarkable wound healing efficiency. This strategy offers a novel design concept for creating a new generation of PTT and opens the way for the creation of alternative antibiotics.

Multifunctional nanozyme-reinforced copper-coordination polymer nanoparticles for drug-resistance bacteria extinction and diabetic wound healing.

Project description:BackgroundDrug-resistant bacterial infections in chronic wounds are a persistent issue, as they are resistant to antibiotics and can cause excessive inflammation due to generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). An effective solution would be to not only combat bacterial infections but also scavenge ROS to relieve inflammation at the wound site. Scaffolds with antioxidant properties are attractive for their ability to scavenge ROS, and there is medical demand in developing antioxidant enzyme-mimicking nanomaterials for wound healing.MethodsIn this study, we fabricated copper-coordination polymer nanoparticles (Cu-CPNs) through a self-assembly process. Furthermore, ε-polylysine (EPL), an antibacterial and cationic polymer, was integrated into the Cu-CPNs structure through a simple one-pot self-assembly process without sacrificing the glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and superoxide dismutase (SOD)-mimicking activity of Cu-CPNs.ResultsThe resulting Cu-CPNs exhibit excellent antioxidant propertiesin mimicking the activity of glutathione peroxidase and superoxide dismutase and allowing them to effectively scavenge harmful ROS produced in wound sites. The in vitro experiments showed that the resulting Cu-CPNs@EPL complex have superior antioxidant properties and antibacterial effects. Bacterial metabolic analysis revealed that the complex mainly affects the cell membrane integrity and nucleic acid synthesis that leads to bacterial death.ConclusionsThe Cu-CPNs@EPL complex has impressive antioxidant properties and antibacterial effects, making it a promising solution for treating drug-resistant bacterial infections in chronic wounds. The complex's ability to neutralize multiple ROS and reduce ROS-induced inflammation can help relieve inflammation at the wound site. Schematic illustration of the ROS scavenging and bacteriostatic function induced by Cu-CPNs@EPL nanozyme in the treatment of MRSA-infected wounds.

Iron oxide-carbon core-shell nanoparticles for dual-modal imaging-guided photothermal therapy.

Project description:Nanostructured materials that have low tissue toxicity, multi-modal imaging capability and high photothermal conversion efficiency have great potential to enable image-guided near infrared (NIR) photothermal therapy (PTT). Here, we report a bifunctional nanoparticle (BFNP, ?16?nm) comprised of a magnetic Fe3O4 core (?9.1?nm) covered by a fluorescent carbon shell (?3.4?nm) and prepared via a one-pot solvothermal synthesis method using ferrocene as the sole source. The BFNP exhibits excitation wavelength-tunable, upconverted and near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence property due to the presence of the carbon shell, and superparamagnetic behavior resulted from the Fe3O4 core. BFNPs demonstrate dual-modal imaging capacity both in vitro and in vivo with fluorescent imaging excited under a varying wavelength from 405?nm to 820?nm and with T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (r2?=?264.76?mM-1?s-1). More significantly, BFNPs absorb and convert NIR light to heat enabling photothermal therapy as demonstrated mice bearing C6 glioblastoma. These BFNPs show promise as an advanced nanoplatform to provide imaging guided photothermal therapy.

Thermoresponsive Hydrogel-Enabled Thermostatic Photothermal Therapy for Enhanced Healing of Bacteria-Infected Wounds.

Project description:Photothermal therapy (PTT) has emerged as an attractive technique for the treatment of bacterial infections. However, the uncontrolled heat generation in conventional PTT inevitably causes thermal damages to healthy tissues and/or organs. It is thus essential to develop a smart and universal strategy to regulate the photothermal equilibrium temperature to a preset safe threshold. Herein, a thermoresponsive hydrogel-enabled thermostatic PTT system for enhanced healing of bacteria-infected wounds is reported. In this system, the near-infrared (NIR)-triggered heat generation by photothermal nanomaterials is spontaneously transferred to a thermoresponsive hydrogel with a lower critical solution temperature (LCST), leading to its rapid phase transition by forming considerable light-scattering centers to block NIR penetration. Such a dynamic and reversible process automatically regulates the photothermal equilibrium temperature to the phase-transition point of the LCST-type hydrogel. In contrast to temperature-uncontrolled conventional PTT with severe thermal damages, the thermoresponsive hydrogel-enabled thermostatic PTT provides effective protection on healthy tissues and/or organs, which remarkably accelerates wound healing by efficient bacterial eradication. This study establishes a smart, simple and universal PTT platform, holding great promise in the safe and efficient treatment of bacterial skin infections.

Reversible Inhibition of Iron Oxide Nanozyme by Guanidine Chloride.

Project description:Nanozymes have been widely applied in bio-assays in the field of biotechnology and biomedicines. However, the physicochemical basis of nanozyme catalytic activity remains elusive. To test whether nanozymes exhibit an inactivation effect similar to that of natural enzymes, we used guanidine chloride (GuHCl) to disturb the iron oxide nanozyme (IONzyme) and observed that GuHCl induced IONzyme aggregation and that the peroxidase-like activity of IONzyme significantly decreased in the presence of GuHCl. However, the aggregation appeared to be unrelated to the quick process of inactivation, as GuHCl acted as a reversible inhibitor of IONzyme instead of a solo denaturant. Inhibition kinetic analysis showed that GuHCl binds to IONzyme competitively with H2O2 but non-competitively with tetramethylbenzidine. In addition, electron spin resonance spectroscopy showed that increasing GuHCl level of GuHCl induced a correlated pattern of changes in the activity and the state of the unpaired electrons of the IONzymes. This result indicates that GuHCl probably directly interacts with the iron atoms of IONzyme and affects the electron density of iron, which may then induce IONzyme inactivation. These findings not only contribute to understanding the essence of nanozyme catalytic activity but also suggest a practically feasible method to regulate the catalytic activity of IONzyme.
