Nitric Oxide Release and Antibacterial Efficacy Analyses of S-Nitroso-N-Acetyl-Penicillamine Conjugated to Titanium Dioxide Nanoparticles.

ABSTRACT: Therapeutic agents can be linked to nanoparticles to fortify their selectivity and targeted delivery while impeding systemic toxicity and efficacy loss. Titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiNPs) owe their rise in biomedical sciences to their versatile applicability, although the lack of inherent antibacterial properties limits its application and necessitates the addition of bactericidal agents along with TiNPs. Structural modifications can improve TiNP's antibacterial impact. The antibacterial efficacy of nitric oxide (NO) against a broad spectrum of bacterial strains is well established. For the first time, S-nitroso-N-acetylpenicillamine (SNAP), an NO donor molecule, was covalently immobilized on TiNPs to form the NO-releasing TiNP-SNAP nanoparticles. The TiNPs were silanized with 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane, and N-acetyl-d-penicillamine was grafted to them via an amide bond. The nitrosation was carried out by t-butyl nitrite to conjugate the NO-rich SNAP moiety to the surface. The total NO immobilization was measured to be 127.55 ± 4.68 nmol mg^-1 using the gold standard chemiluminescence NO analyzer. The NO payload can be released from the TiNP-SNAP under physiological conditions for up to 20 h. The TiNP-SNAP exhibited a concentration-dependent antimicrobial efficiency. At 5 mg mL^-1, more than 99.99 and 99.70% reduction in viable Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus and Gram-negative Escherichia coli bacteria, respectively, were observed. No significant cytotoxicity was observed against 3T3 mouse fibroblast cells at all the test concentrations determined by the CCK-8 assay. TiNP-SNAP is a promising and versatile nanoparticle that can significantly impact the usage of TiNPs in a wide variety of applications, such as biomaterial coatings, tissue engineering scaffolds, or wound dressings.

Project description:The prolonged and localized delivery of nitric oxide (NO), a potent antithrombotic and antimicrobial agent, has many potential biomedical applications. In this work, the origin of the long-term storage stability and sustained NO release mechanism of S-nitroso-N-acetyl-D-penicillamine (SNAP)-doped CarboSil 20 80A polymer, a biomedical thermoplastic silicone-polycarbonate-urethane, is explored. Long-term (22 days) localized NO release is achieved by utilizing a cross-linked silicone rubber as topcoats, which can greatly reduce the amount of SNAP, NAP, and NAP disulfide leaching from the SNAP-doped CarboSil films, as measured by LC-MS. Raman spectroscopy and powder X-ray diffraction characterization of SNAP-doped CarboSil films demonstrate that a polymer-crystal composite is formed during the solvent evaporation process when SNAP exceeds its solubility in CarboSil (ca. 3.4-4.0 wt %). Further, when exceeding this solubility threshold, SNAP exists in an orthorhombic crystal form within the bulk of the polymer. The proposed mechanism of sustained NO release in SNAP-doped CarboSil is that the solubilized SNAP in the polymer matrix decomposes and releases NO, primarily in the water-rich regions near the polymer/solution interface, and the dissolved SNAP in the bulk polymeric phase becomes unsaturated, resulting in the dissolution of crystalline SNAP within the bulk of the polymer. This is a very slow process that ultimately leads to NO release at the physiological flux levels for >3 weeks. The increased stability of SNAP within CarboSil is attributed to the intermolecular hydrogen bonds between the SNAP molecules that crystallize. This crystallization also plays a key role in maintaining RSNO stability within the CarboSil polymer for >8 months at 37 °C (88.5% remains). Further, intravascular catheters fabricated with this new material are demonstrated to significantly decrease the formation of Staphylococcus aureus biofilm (a leading cause of nosocomial bloodstream infections) (in vitro) over a 7 day period, with 5 log units reduction of viable cell count on catheter surfaces. It is also shown that the NO release catheters can greatly reduce thrombus formation on the catheter surfaces during 7 h implantation in rabbit veins, when compared to the control catheters fabricated without SNAP. These results suggest that the SNAP-doped CarboSil system is a very attractive new composite material for creating long-term NO release medical devices with increased stability and biocompatibility.
