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.

Project description:Bacterial infection, tissue hypoxia and inflammatory response can hinder the infected wound repair process. To mitigate the above issues, tannic acid-chelated Fe-decorated molybdenum disulfide nanosheets (MoS2@TA/Fe NSs) with dual enzyme activities were developed and anchored to a multifunctional hydrogel. The hydrogel exhibited excellent antibacterial ability owing to the combined effects of photothermal therapy (PTT), glutathione (GSH) loss, and the peroxidase (POD)-like activity (catalyse H2O2 into ·OH under acid condition) of MoS2@TA/Fe NSs. Benefitting from the catalase (CAT)-like activity, the hydrogel could decompose H2O2 into O2 at neutral pH to relieve hypoxia and supply adequate O2. POD-like activity was mainly attributed to MoS2 NSs, while CAT-like activity was primarily due to TA/Fe complex. Moreover, MoS2@TA/Fe NSs endowed the hydrogel with outstanding anti-oxidant ability to scavenge redundant reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) under neutral environment to maintain the balance of antioxidant systems and prevent inflammation. In addition, the hydrogel could inhibit the release of inflammatory factors for the anti-inflammatory property of TA. TA retained partial phenolic hydroxyl groups, which cross-linked the nanosheets to the network structure of the hydrogel and promoted the adhesion of hydrogels. Due to the dynamic boron ester bonds between polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), dextran (Dex), MoS2@TA/Fe, and borax, the hydrogel demonstrated fast self-healing and rapid shape adaptability. This shape-adaptable adhesive hydrogel could fill the whole wound and closely contact the wound, ensuring that it achieved its functions with maximum efficiency. The MoS2@TA/Fe nanozyme-anchored multifunctional hydrogel showed high potential for bacteria-infected wound healing.
