With the development of photothermal nanomaterials, photothermal therapy based on near-infrared light excitation shows great potential for the bacterial infected wound treatment. At the same time, in order to improve the photothermal antibacterial effect of wound infection and reduce the damage of high temperature and heat to healthy tissue, the targeted bacteria strategy has been gradually applied in wound photothermal therapy. In this paper, several commonly used photothermal nanomaterials as well as their targeted bacterial strategies were introduced, and then their applications in photothermal antibacterial therapy, especially in bacterial infected wounds were described. Besides, the challenges of targeted photothermal antibacterial therapy in the wound healing application were analyzed, and the development of photothermal materials with targeted antibacterial property has prospected in order to provide a new idea for wound photothermal therapy.
ObjectiveTo summarize the related research progress of antibacterial modification of orthopaedic implants surface in recent years. Methods The domestic and foreign related literature in recent years was extensively consulted, the research progress on antibacterial modification of orthopaedic implants surface was discussed from two aspects of characteristics of infection in orthopedic implants and surface anti-infection modification. Results The orthopaedic implants infections are mainly related to aspects of bacterial adhesion, decreased host immunity, and surface biofilm formation. At present, the main antimicrobial coating methods of orthopaedic implants are antibacterial adhesion coating, antibiotic coating, inorganic antimicrobial coating, composite antimicrobial coating, nitric oxide coating, immunomodulation, three-dimensional printing, polymer antimicrobial coating, and “smart” coating. Conclusion The above-mentioned antibacterial coating methods of orthopedic implants can not only inhibit bacterial adhesion, but also solve the problems of low immunity and biofilm formation. However, its mechanism of action and modification are still controversial and require further research.
Objective To design and construct a graphene oxide (GO)/silver nitrate (Ag3PO4)/chitosan (CS) composite coating for rapidly killing bacteria and preventing postoperative infection in implant surgery. Methods GO/Ag3PO4 composites were prepared by ion exchange method, and CS and GO/Ag3PO4 composites were deposited on medical titanium (Ti) sheets successively. The morphology, physical image, photothermal and photocatalytic ability, antibacterial ability, and adhesion to the matrix of the materials were characterized. Results The GO/Ag3PO4 composites were successfully prepared by ion exchange method and the heterogeneous structure of GO/Ag3PO4 was proved by morphology phase test. The heterogeneous structure formed by Ag3PO4 and GO reduced the band gap from 1.79 eV to 1.39 eV which could be excited by 808 nm near-infrared light. The photothermal and photocatalytic experiments proved that the GO/Ag3PO4/CS coating had excellent photothermal and photodynamic properties. In vitro antibacterial experiments showed that the antibacterial rate of the GO/Ag3PO4/CS composite coating against Staphylococcus aureus reached 99.81% after 20 minutes irradiation with 808 nm near-infrared light. At the same time, the composite coating had excellent light stability, which could provide stable and sustained antibacterial effect. ConclusionGO/Ag3PO4/CS coating can be excited by 808 nm near infrared light to produce reactive oxygen species, which has excellent antibacterial activity under light.
Objective To investigate the research progress of drug-loaded antibacterial coating of orthopedic metal implants in recent years. Methods The recent literature on the drug-loaded antibacterial coating of orthopedic metal implants were reviewed. The research status, classification, and development trend of drug-loaded antibacterial coating were summarized. Results The drug-loaded antibacterial coating of orthopedic metal implants can be divided into passive release type and active release type according to the mode of drug release. Passive drug release coating can release the drug continuously regardless of whether the presence of bacteria around the implants. Active drug release coating do not release the drug unless the presence of bacteria around the implants. Conclusion The sustained and stable release of drugs is a key problem to be solved in various antibacterial coatings research. The intelligent antibacterial coating which release antibiotics only in the presence of bacteria is the future direction of development.
Objective To investigate the physicochemical properties of pure titanium surface grafted with chlorhexidine (CHX) by phenolamine coating, and to evaluate its antibacterial activity and osteoblast-compatibility in vitro. MethodsControl group was obtained by alkali and thermal treatment, and then immersed in the mixture of epigallocatechin-3-gallate/hexamethylene diamine (coating group). Phenolamine coating was deposited on the surface, and then it was immersed in CHX solution to obtain the grafted surface of CHX (grafting group). The surface morphology was observed by scanning electron microscope, the surface element composition was analyzed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and the surface hydrophilicity was measured by water contact angle test. Live/dead bacterial staining, nephelometery, and inhibition zone method were executed to evaluate the antibacterial property. Cytotoxicity was evaluated by MTT assay and cell fluorescence staining. Bacteria-MC3T3-E1 cells co‐culture was conducted to evaluate the cell viability on the samples under the circumstance with bacteria. Results Scanning electron microscope observation results showed that deposits of coating group and grafting group increased successively and gradually covered the porous structure. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy results showed the peak of N1s enhanced and the peak of Cl2p appeared in grafting group. Water contact angle test results showed that the hydrophilic angle of three groups increased in turn, and there was significant difference between groups (P<0.05). Live/dead bacteria staining results showed that the grafting group had the least amount of bacteria adhered to the surface and the proportion of dead bacteria was high. The grafting group had a transparent inhibition zone around it and the absorbance (A) value did not increase, showing significant difference when compared with control group and coating group (P<0.05). MTT assay and cell fluorescence staining results showed that the number of adherent cells on the surface of the grafting group was the least, but the adherent cells had good proliferation activity. Bacteria-cell co-culture results showed that there was no bacteria on the surface of grafting group but live cells adhered well. ConclusionCHX-grafted phenolamine coating has the ability to inhibit bacterial adhesion and proliferation, and effectively protect cell adhesion and proliferation in a bacterial environment.
Currently, all the conventional antibiotics have developed corresponding drug-resistant pathogenic strains, which have increasingly become a serious threat to people's health. Development of completely new types of antibiotics is one of effective ways to solve the drug resistance issue. Antimicrobial peptides with broad-spectrum antibacterial and antimicrobial activity and wild variety become the ideal alternative to traditional antibiotics. Antimicrobial peptides are derived from wide range of sources, such as plants, animals, and microorganisms. Mechanism of function of the antimicrobial peptides and the investigation approaches of different antimicrobial peptides also vary dramatically. In this paper, we give an overview of preparation, antibacterial mechanisms, and research methodology of antimicrobial peptides.
5–20 wt% trimethoxysilylpropyl octadecyldimethyl ammonium chloride (QAS) was used to modify Poly (ε-caprolactone) (PCL)-gelatin hybrid to fabricate non-leaching antibacterial nanofiber membranes (PG-Q) by electrospinning. The results from scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) indicated that the QAS leaded to phase separation between the QAS and PCL. Hydrophilic test demonstrated that the PG-Q nanofiber membranes had hydrophobic surface, which was help for peeling off the dressing from the wound. Additionally, the physical and chemical cross-linking between the QAS/PCL and QAS/gelatin were confirmed by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), which were good for long lasting antibacterial effect. The PG-Q membranes also showed excellent cell-biocompatibility. Furthermore, compared with pure PCL nanofiber membrane, the PG-Q nanofiber membranes, especially PG-Q15 (QAS: 15 wt%) and PG-Q20 (QAS: 20 wt%), showed a considerable increase in the bacteriostatic rate of S. aureus and P. aeruginosa (more than 99% after 12 h). Therefore, electrospinning non-leaching antibacterial nanofiber membranes could be an optimal choice for antibacterial wound dressing.
The objective of the study is to analyze the biological characteristics and stability of the linear derivative Bac2a from bactenecin, compared with the control peptide melittin. The secondary structure, antibacterial activity, hemolytic activity, cell toxicity and stability of the Bac2a were determined by circular dichroism spectroscopy, broth micro-dilution method and MTT assay. The results showed that Bac2a was a nonregular curl in aqueous solution, however, it was an α-helix structure in the hydrophobic environment. The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of Bac2a ranged from 2 to 32 μmol/L, so the bacteriostatic activity of Bac2a was strong. The hemolytic rate was only 14.81% when the concentration of Bac2a was 64 μmol/L, which showed that the hemolytic rate of Bac2a was low. The therapy index of Bac2a was 3.26, and the cytotoxicity was relatively low, thus the cell selectivity was relatively high. In addition, with the heating treatment of 100℃ for 1 h, Bac2a still possessed rather a high antibacterial activity and showed a good heating stability. In a word, Bac2a has good application prospects in food, medicine and other fields, and is expected as a substitute for traditional antibiotics.
Objective To systematically review the efficacy of long-acting antibacterial material in the prevention of secondary urinary infection. Methods PubMed, The Cochrane Library, CNKI, CBM, WanFang Data and VIP databases were electronically searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on the efficacy of long-acting antibacterial material in the prevention of secondary urinary infection from inception to November, 2016. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies, then, meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.3 software. Results A total of 16 RCTs were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that: the long-acting antibacterial material group was superior to the general intervention group in morbidity of secondary urinary infection (Peto OR=0.17, 95%CI 0.13 to 0.23, P<0.000 01), and bacterial positive rate of secondary urinary infection (Peto OR=0.15, 95%CI 0.08 to 0.27,P<0.000 01). Conclusion Current evidence shows that long-acting antibacterial material can effectively reduce the infection rates of secondary urinary infection. Due to limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high quality studies are needed to verify the above conclusion.
