The study's goals are to fabricate PLGA nanoparticles (PNPs) loaded with apigenin (AP) and adenosine (AD) using a microfluidic preparation method to a standard emulsification method and investigate the possible heart-protective effects of AP-AD PNPs made using the emulsification method. Compared to microfluidics, the emulsification method fabricated small-size nanoparticles, which are better at encapsulating drugs, retaining more drugs, and having a low viscosity for the myocardial infarction (MI) injection. TheMI model was developed using SD rats injected under the skin with 85 mg/kg doxorubicin (DOX) for 2 days. The metabolic results showed that our AP-AD PNPs accelerated the blood flow in rats with MI, which increased the amounts of AP and AD in the circulatory system. This led to significant improvements in the cardiac index and lower amounts of AST, LDH, and CK in the blood. A histopathological study using Hematoxylin&eosin, and TUNEL staining showed that cardiac function had improved and apoptosis had decreased. Moreover, tests that checked the amounts of IL-6, TNF-α, NO, GSH, MDA, and SOD showed that AP-AD PNPs may help treat MI by reducing oxidative stress and inflammation, making it a potentially useful therapeutic approach.

该研究的目的是用微流控制备法和标准乳化法制备负载有芹菜素(AP)和腺苷(AD)的聚乳酸丙烯酸酯(PLGA)纳米粒子(PNPs),并研究用乳化法制备的AP-AD PNPs可能具有的心脏保护作用。与微流控制备法相比,乳化法制备的纳米粒子尺寸更小,更能包裹药物、保留更多药物,而且粘度低,更适合心肌梗死(MI)注射。心肌梗死模型是利用 SD 大鼠皮下注射 85 毫克/千克多柔比星(DOX)2 天后建立的。代谢结果表明,我们的 AP-AD PNPs 加快了心肌梗死大鼠的血流速度,增加了循环系统中的 AP 和 AD 含量。这导致心脏指数明显改善,血液中的 AST、LDH 和 CK 含量降低。使用苏木精和 TUNEL 染色法进行的组织病理学研究表明,心脏功能得到改善,细胞凋亡减少。此外,对 IL-6、TNF-α、NO、GSH、MDA 和 SOD 含量的检测表明,AP-AD PNPs 可通过减少氧化应激和炎症来帮助治疗心肌梗死,是一种潜在的有效治疗方法。

This work examined the antibacterial and antibiofilm properties of alginate/collagen nanoparticles containing limonene. The multi-drug resistant (MDR) strains were screened, and the morphological features of the produced nanoparticles were determined utilizing SEM, DLS, and FTIR. Additionally, the encapsulation effectiveness, stability, and drug release were assessed. The levels of OmpA and Bap biofilm genes were assessed using qRT-PCR. At the same time, the antibacterial and cytotoxic activities of the nanoparticles were evaluated using well diffusion and MTT techniques, respectively. LAC nanoparticles measuring 300 ± 9.6 nm in size, 83.64 ± 0.19% encapsulation efficiency, and 60-day stability at 4 °C were synthesized. The biological investigation demonstrated that LAC nanoparticles had potent antibacterial capabilities. This was shown by their ability to significantly decrease the transcription of OmpA and Bap biofilm genes at a statistically significant level of p ≤ 0.05. The nanoparticles exhibited reduced antibiotic resistance compared to free limonene and alginate/collagen. Compared to limonene, LAC nanoparticles exhibited negligible cytotoxicity against HEK-293 at doses ranging from 1.56 to 100 µg/mL (p ≤ 0.01). The findings underscore the potential of LAC nanoparticles as a breakthrough in the fight against highly resistant pathogens. The potent antibacterial effects of LAC nanoparticles versus Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii) MDR strains, considered highly resistant pathogens of significant concern, could inspire new strategies in antibacterial research.

本研究考察了含有柠檬烯的海藻酸/胶原蛋白纳米粒子的抗菌和抗生物膜特性。筛选了耐多药(MDR)菌株,并利用扫描电镜、DLS 和傅立叶变换红外光谱测定了所制纳米粒子的形态特征。此外,还对封装效果、稳定性和药物释放进行了评估。利用 qRT-PCR 技术评估了 OmpA 和 Bap 生物膜基因的水平。同时,还分别使用井扩散和 MTT 技术评估了纳米颗粒的抗菌和细胞毒性活性。合成的 LAC 纳米粒子大小为 300 ± 9.6 nm,封装效率为 83.64 ± 0.19%,在 4 °C 下可稳定 60 天。生物学研究表明,LAC 纳米粒子具有强大的抗菌能力。这表现在它们能够显著降低 OmpA 和 Bap 生物膜基因的转录,且 p ≤ 0.05 具有统计学意义。与游离的柠檬烯和海藻酸/胶原相比,纳米粒子表现出更低的抗生素耐药性。与柠檬烯相比,在剂量为 1.56 至 100 µg/mL 时,LAC 纳米粒子对 HEK-293 的细胞毒性可忽略不计(p ≤ 0.01)。这些发现凸显了 LAC 纳米粒子在抗击高抗药性病原体方面的突破潜力。LAC 纳米粒子对鲍曼不动杆菌(A. baumannii)MDR 菌株的强效抗菌作用可激发抗菌研究的新策略。

IF 3.5 3区 生物学 Q2 BIOTECHNOLOGY & APPLIED MICROBIOLOGY Pub Date : 2024-10-30 DOI: 10.1186/s12896-024-00909-7

Background: Natural pigments are becoming more significant because of the rising cost of raw materials, pollution, and the complexity of synthetic pigments. Compared to synthetic pigments, natural pigments exhibit antimicrobial properties and is less allergic. Pigments from microbial sources could easily be obtained in an inexpensive culture media, produced in high yields, and microbes are capable of producing different colored pigments. Searching for new sources for natural pigments to replace synthetic ones in food applications has become an urgent necessity, but the instability of these compounds is sometimes considered one of the obstacles that reduce their application. Encapsulation provides an ideal solution for natural dye protection through a controlled release strategy. Thus, this study aims at isolation of several soil fungi and subsequent screening their pigment production ability. The chosen pigment-producing fungal strain underwent full identification. The produced pigment was extracted with ethyl acetate and estimated spectrophotometrically. As there is a necessity to obtain a high pigment yield for efficient industrial application, the best production medium was tested, optimum conditions for maximum dye production were also investigated through the response surface methodology, and gamma irradiation was also employed to enhance the fungal productivity. Encapsulation of the produced pigment into chitosan microsphere was tested. The pigment release under different pH conditions was also investigated.

Results: A new strain, Fusarium verticillioides AUMC 15934 was chosen and identified for a violet pigment production process. Out of four different media studied, the tested strain grew well on potato dextrose broth medium. Optimum conditions are initial medium pH 8, 25 °C-incubation temperature, and for 15-day incubation period under shaking state. Moreover, a 400 Gy irradiation dose enhanced the pigment production. Chitosan microsphere loaded by the pigment was successfully prepared and characterized by infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy.

Conclusion: This irradiated Fusarium strain provides a more economically favorable source for production of a natural violet dye with an optimum productivity, enhanced yield, and improved properties (such as, enhanced stability, controlled release, and bioaccessibility) by encapsulation with chitosan for efficient application in food industry.

背景:由于原材料成本上升、污染和合成颜料的复杂性,天然颜料正变得越来越重要。与合成颜料相比,天然颜料具有抗菌特性,过敏性较低。微生物来源的颜料可以很容易地在廉价的培养基中获得,产量高,而且微生物能够生产不同颜色的颜料。寻找天然色素的新来源以取代食品中的合成色素已成为当务之急,但这些化合物的不稳定性有时被认为是减少其应用的障碍之一。封装技术通过控制释放策略为天然染料的保护提供了理想的解决方案。因此,本研究旨在分离几种土壤真菌,并随后筛选它们的色素生产能力。所选的色素生产真菌菌株经过了全面鉴定。产生的色素用乙酸乙酯提取,并用分光光度法进行估算。由于需要获得较高的色素产量以实现有效的工业应用,因此对最佳生产介质进行了测试,还通过响应面方法研究了染料产量最大化的最佳条件,并采用伽马射线照射来提高真菌的生产率。还测试了将生产的颜料封装到壳聚糖微球中的情况。此外,还研究了不同 pH 值条件下的色素释放情况:结果:选择并鉴定了一株新菌株 Fusarium verticillioides AUMC 15934,用于紫色颜料的生产过程。在所研究的四种不同培养基中,被测菌株在马铃薯葡萄糖肉汤培养基上生长良好。最佳条件是初始培养基 pH 值为 8,培养温度为 25 °C,在振荡状态下培养 15 天。此外,400 Gy 的辐照剂量可提高色素产量。成功制备了负载色素的壳聚糖微球,并通过红外光谱和扫描电子显微镜对其进行了表征:该辐照镰刀菌菌株为生产天然紫色染料提供了一种更经济的来源,通过壳聚糖封装,该染料具有最佳的生产率、更高的产量和更好的性能(如更高的稳定性、可控释放性和生物可及性),可有效地应用于食品工业。

Synthetic dyes, such as Alizarin Red S, contribute significantly to environmental pollution. This study investigates the biosorption potential of Alhagi maurorum biosorbent for the removal of Alizarin Red S (ARS) from aqueous solutions. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was used to analyze the biosorbent's adsorption sites. Various parameters were optimized to maximize dye adsorption. An optimal removal efficiency of 82.26% was attained by employing 0.9 g of biosorbent with a 25 ppm dye concentration at pH 6 and 60 °C over 30 min. The data were modeled using various isothermal and kinetic models to understand the adsorption behavior. Thermodynamic parameters indicated that the adsorption process was spontaneous and endothermic. The pseudo-second-order kinetic model best described the data, indicating chemisorption as the rate-limiting step. The data matched best to the Langmuir model, indicating that the adsorption occurs as a monolayer on uniform surfaces with a finite number of binding sites. The model showed a strong correlation (R² = 0.991) and a maximum adsorption capacity (qmax) of 8.203 mg/g. Principal component analysis (PCA) identified temperature as the dominant factor, with the primary component, PC1 capturing 100% of its effect. The mechanisms involved in ARS biosorption on A. maurorum include electrostatic interactions, hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic interactions, dipole-dipole interactions, and π-π stacking. Alhagi maurorum showed promising potential for biosorbing toxic dyes from contaminated water, suggesting further investigation for practical applications.

茜素红 S 等合成染料是造成环境污染的主要原因。本研究探讨了 Alhagi maurorum 生物吸附剂从水溶液中去除茜素红 S (ARS) 的生物吸附潜力。傅立叶变换红外光谱(FTIR)用于分析生物吸附剂的吸附位点。为了最大限度地吸附染料,对各种参数进行了优化。在 pH 值为 6、温度为 60 °C 的条件下,使用 0.9 克生物吸附剂,在 30 分钟内吸附 25 ppm 浓度的染料,最佳去除率为 82.26%。使用各种等温模型和动力学模型对数据进行建模,以了解吸附行为。热力学参数表明,吸附过程是自发和内热的。伪二阶动力学模型对数据进行了最佳描述,表明化学吸附是限速步骤。数据与 Langmuir 模型最为吻合,表明吸附是在具有有限结合位点的均匀表面上以单层形式发生的。该模型显示出很强的相关性(R² = 0.991),最大吸附容量(qmax)为 8.203 毫克/克。主成分分析(PCA)确定温度是主导因素,主成分 PC1 对温度的影响达到 100%。A. maurorum 对 ARS 的生物吸附机制包括静电作用、氢键作用、疏水作用、偶极子-偶极子作用和 π-π 堆积作用。Alhagi maurorum在生物吸附受污染水体中的有毒染料方面表现出了巨大的潜力,建议进一步研究其实际应用。

Optimizing extraction conditions can help maximize the efficiency and yield of the extraction process while minimizing negative impacts on the environment and human health. For the purpose of the current study, an artificial neural network (ANN) combined with a genetic algorithm (GA) was utilized for that the extraction conditions of Hypericum spectabile were optimized. In this particular investigation, the main objective was to get the highest possible levels of total antioxidant status (TAS) for the extracts that were obtained. In addition to this, conditions of the extract that exhibited the maximum activity have been determined and the biological activity of the extract that was obtained under these conditions was analyzed. TAS values were obtained from extracts obtained using extraction temperatures of 30-60 °C, extraction times of 4-10 h, and extract concentrations of 0.25-2 mg/mL. The best model selected from the established ANN models had a mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) value of 0.643%, a mean squared error (MSE) value of 0.004, and a correlation coefficient (R) value of 0.996, respectively. The genetic algorithm proposed optimal extraction conditions of an extraction temperature of 59.391 °C, an extraction time of 8.841 h, and an extraction concentration of 1.951 mg/mL. It was concluded that the integration of ANN-GA can successfully be used to optimize extraction parameters of Hypericum spectabile. The total antioxidant value of the extract obtained under optimum conditions was determined as 9.306 ± 0.080 mmol/L, total oxidant value as 13.065 ± 0.112 µmol/L, oxidative stress index as 0.140 ± 0.001. Total phenolic content (TPC) was 109.34 ± 1.29 mg/g, total flavonoid content (TFC) was measured as 148.34 ± 1.48 mg/g. Anti-AChE value was determined as 30.68 ± 0.77 µg/mL, anti-BChE value was determined as 41.30 ± 0.48 µg/mL. It was also observed that the extract exhibited strong antiproliferative activities depending on the increase in concentration. As a result of LC-MS/MS analysis of the extract produced under optimum conditions in terms of phenolic content. The presence of fumaric, gallic, protocatechuic, 4-hydroxybenzoic, caffeic, 2-hydoxycinamic acids, quercetin and kaempferol was detected. As a result, it was determined that the H. spectabile extract produced under optimum conditions had significant effects in terms of biological activity.

The genetic algorithm proposed optimal extraction conditions of an extraction temperature of 59.391 °C, an extraction time of 8.841 h, and an extraction concentration of 1.951 mg/mL. It was concluded that the integration of ANN-GA can successfully be used to optimize extraction parameters of Hypericum spectabile. The total antioxidant value of the extract obtained under optimum conditions was determined as 9.306 ± 0.080 mmol/L, total oxidant value as 13.065 ± 0.112 µmol/L, oxidative stress index as 0.140 ± 0.001. Total phenolic content (TPC) was 109.34 ± 1.29 mg/g, total flavonoid content (TFC) was measured as 148.34 ± 1.48 mg/g. Anti-AChE value was determined as 30.68 ± 0.77 µg/mL, anti-BChE value was determined as 41.30 ± 0.48 µg/mL. It was also observed that the extract exhibited strong antiproliferative activities depending on the increase in concentration. As a result of LC-MS/MS analysis of the extract produced under optimum conditions in terms of phenolic content. The presence of fumaric, gallic, protocatechuic, 4-hydroxybenzoic, caffeic, 2-hydoxycinamic acids, quercetin and kaempferol was detected. As a result, it was determined that the H. spectabile extract produced under optimum conditions had significant effects in terms of biological activity.</p>","PeriodicalId":8905,"journal":{"name":"BMC Biotechnology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-10-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11520853/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142520902","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cloning is a key molecular biology procedure for obtaining a genetically homogenous population of organisms or cell lines. It requires the expansion of new cell populations starting from single genetically modified cells. Despite the technical progress, cloning of many cell lines remains difficult. Cloning often fails either due to the strenuous conditions associated with manipulating cells or because many cells don't tolerate a single-cell state. Here we describe a new cloning method utilizing low adhesion microcavity plates. This new technique, named microcavity-assisted cloning (MAC) was developed to clone difficult-to-clone HepG2 cells. The clones were produced following CRISPR/Cas9 knockout of the GSTA1 gene by a random distribution of 200, 400, and 800 cells into 550 microcavities of a 24-well low adhesion plate originally designed for the culture of spheroids. The knockout of GSTA1 was verified at the protein level using Western blotting. The advantages of the MAC method are its low cost, ease of the procedure, and the possibility of scaling up the throughput and automatization.

克隆是获得基因同源的生物群体或细胞系的关键分子生物学程序。它要求从单个转基因细胞开始扩增新的细胞群。尽管技术不断进步,但许多细胞系的克隆仍然困难重重。克隆失败的原因往往是操作细胞的条件过于苛刻,或者是许多细胞无法忍受单细胞状态。在这里,我们描述了一种利用低附着力微腔板的新型克隆方法。这项新技术被命名为微腔辅助克隆(MAC),用于克隆难以克隆的 HepG2 细胞。克隆是在 CRISPR/Cas9 敲除 GSTA1 基因后产生的,方法是将 200、400 和 800 个细胞随机分布到 24 孔低粘附性板的 550 个微腔中,该板原本是为培养球形细胞而设计的。用 Western 印迹法在蛋白质水平上验证了 GSTA1 的基因敲除。MAC 方法的优点是成本低、操作简便,而且可以提高产量和自动化程度。

Background: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) clearance depends on an effective adaptive immune response, especially HBV-specific T cell-mediated cellular immunity; however, it is difficult to produce enough HBV-specific T cells effectively.

Results: In this work, we investigated the proportions of stimulated cells, serum, and culture media as the three primary factors to determine the most effective procedure and applied it to HLA-A2 (+) people. In parallel, we also examined the correlation between clinical parameters and HBV-specific immunity. Concerning amplification efficiency, 4 × 105 cells stimulation was superior to 2 × 106 cells stimulation, AIM-V medium outperformed 1640 medium, and fetal bovine serum (FBS) exceeded human AB serum under comparable conditions. As expected, this procedure is also suitable for developing HBV-specific CD8 + T cells in HLA-A2(+) individuals. Expanded HBV-specific T cell responses decreased with treatment time and were negatively correlated with HBV DNA and HBsAg. Furthermore, the number of HBV-specific IFN-γ + SFCs was strongly correlated with the ALT level and negatively correlated with the absolute lymphocyte count and the ALB concentration.

Conclusions: We confirm that stimulating 4 × 105 PBMCs in AIM-V medium supplemented with 10% FBS is the best approach and that HBeAg, HBsAg, and ALB are independent predictors of HBV-specific T-cell responses.

背景:乙型肝炎病毒(HBV)的清除依赖于有效的适应性免疫反应,特别是HBV特异性T细胞介导的细胞免疫;然而,很难有效地产生足够的HBV特异性T细胞:在这项工作中,我们研究了刺激细胞、血清和培养基这三个主要因素的比例,以确定最有效的程序,并将其应用于 HLA-A2 (+) 人群。同时,我们还研究了临床参数与 HBV 特异性免疫之间的相关性。在扩增效率方面,4 × 105 细胞刺激优于 2 × 106 细胞刺激,AIM-V 培养基优于 1640 培养基,胎牛血清(FBS)优于同等条件下的人 AB 血清。正如预期的那样,这种方法也适用于培养 HLA-A2(+) 人的 HBV 特异性 CD8 + T 细胞。扩大的 HBV 特异性 T 细胞反应随治疗时间的延长而减少,并与 HBV DNA 和 HBsAg 呈负相关。此外,HBV 特异性 IFN-γ + SFCs 的数量与 ALT 水平密切相关,与淋巴细胞绝对计数和 ALB 浓度呈负相关:我们证实,在添加了 10% FBS 的 AIM-V 培养基中刺激 4 × 105 PBMCs 是最佳方法,HBeAg、HBsAg 和 ALB 是预测 HBV 特异性 T 细胞反应的独立指标。

Sepsis is an inevitable stage of bacterial invasion characterized by an uncontrolled inflammatory response resulting in a syndrome of multiorgan dysfunction. Most conventional antibiotics used to treat sepsis are efficacious, but they have undesirable side effects. The green synthesised Ag NPs were synthesized by 5 g of the earthworm extract dissolved in a volume of 500mL of distilled water and then added to 2,500 mL aqueous solution of 1mM silver nitrate at 40 °C. After 4 h, the mixture was then allowed to dry overnight at 60 °C. Later, Ag NPs were washed and collected. They were characterized by X-ray diffraction, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. Sepsis model as induced by feces-intraperitoneal injection method. Eighteen male mice were assigned into three main groups: the control group, the sepsis-model group, and the Ag NPs-treated group. The control group received a single oral dose of distilled water and, after two days, intraperitoneally injected with 30% glycerol in phosphate buffer saline. The Sepsis-model group received a single oral dose of distilled water. Ag NPs - The treated group received a single oral dose of 5.5 mg/kg of Ag NPs. After two days, the sepsis-model group and Ag NPs-treated group were intraperitoneally injected with 200 µL of faecal slurry. Ag NPs treatment in septic mice significantly decreased liver enzyme activities, total protein, and serum albumin. Moreover, Ag NPs significantly enhanced kidney function, as indicated by a significant decrease in the levels of creatinine, urea, and uric acid. In addition, Ag NPs showed a powerful antioxidant effect via the considerable reduction of malondialdehyde and nitric oxide levels and the increase in antioxidant content. The histopathological investigation showed clear improvement in hepatic and kidney architecture. Our findings demonstrate the protective efficacy of biogenic Ag NPs against sepsis-induced liver and kidney damage.

败血症是细菌入侵的必然阶段,其特点是炎症反应失控,导致多器官功能障碍综合征。用于治疗败血症的大多数传统抗生素虽然有效,但却有不良副作用。将 5 克蚯蚓提取物溶解在 500 毫升蒸馏水中,然后加入 2,500 毫升 1 毫摩尔硝酸银水溶液中,在 40 °C 下合成绿色合成的 Ag NPs。4 小时后,混合物在 60 °C 下干燥过夜。之后,清洗并收集 Ag NPs。通过 X 射线衍射、紫外可见光谱和透射电子显微镜对其进行表征。粪便腹腔注射法诱导的败血症模型。18 只雄性小鼠被分为三大组:对照组、败血症模型组和 Ag NPs 处理组。对照组口服一次蒸馏水,两天后腹腔注射 30% 甘油磷酸盐缓冲盐水。败血症模型组口服一次蒸馏水。Ag NPs - 治疗组单次口服 5.5 mg/kg Ag NPs。两天后,败血症模型组和 Ag NPs 处理组腹腔注射 200 µL 粪便。用 Ag NPs 治疗败血症小鼠可显著降低肝酶活性、总蛋白和血清白蛋白。此外,Ag NPs 还能明显增强肾功能,这体现在肌酐、尿素和尿酸水平的明显下降上。此外,Ag NPs 还通过大幅降低丙二醛和一氧化氮水平以及增加抗氧化剂含量显示出强大的抗氧化作用。组织病理学调查显示,肝脏和肾脏结构明显改善。我们的研究结果表明,生物源Ag NPs对败血症引起的肝脏和肾脏损伤具有保护作用。

Wound infections resulting from pathogen infiltration pose a significant challenge in healthcare settings and everyday life. When the skin barrier is compromised due to injuries, surgeries, or chronic conditions, pathogens such as bacteria, fungi, and viruses can enter the body, leading to infections. These infections can range from mild to severe, causing discomfort, delayed healing, and, in some cases, life-threatening complications. Zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles (NPs) have been widely recognized for their antimicrobial and wound healing properties, while cinnamic acid is known for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. Based on these properties, the combination of ZnO NPs with cinnamic acid (CA) was hypothesized to have enhanced efficacy in addressing wound infections and promoting healing. This study aimed to synthesize and evaluate the potential of ZnO-CN NPs as a multifunctional agent for wound treatment. ZnO-CN NPs were synthesized and characterized using key techniques to confirm their structure and composition. The antioxidant and anti-inflammatory potential of ZnO-CN NPs was evaluated through standard in vitro assays, demonstrating strong free radical scavenging and inhibition of protein denaturation. The antimicrobial activity of the nanoparticles was tested against common wound pathogens, revealing effective inhibition at a minimal concentration. A zebrafish wound healing model was employed to assess both the safety and therapeutic efficacy of the nanoparticles, showing no toxicity at tested concentrations and facilitating faster wound closure. Additionally, pro-inflammatory cytokine gene expression was analyzed to understand the role of ZnO-CN NPs in wound healing mechanisms. In conclusion, ZnO-CN NPs demonstrate potent antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties, making them promising candidates for wound treatment. Given their multifunctional properties and non-toxicity at tested concentrations, ZnO-CN NPs hold significant potential as a therapeutic agent for clinical wound management, warranting further investigation in human models.

病原体渗入造成的伤口感染是医疗机构和日常生活中的一大挑战。当皮肤屏障因受伤、手术或慢性疾病而受损时,细菌、真菌和病毒等病原体就会进入人体,导致感染。这些感染从轻微到严重不等,会引起不适、延迟愈合,在某些情况下还会导致危及生命的并发症。氧化锌(ZnO)纳米粒子(NPs)的抗菌和伤口愈合特性已得到广泛认可,而肉桂酸则以其抗氧化和抗炎活性而闻名。基于这些特性,人们假设氧化锌纳米粒子与肉桂酸(CA)的结合在解决伤口感染和促进伤口愈合方面具有更强的功效。本研究旨在合成 ZnO-CN NPs 并评估其作为多功能伤口治疗剂的潜力。采用关键技术合成了 ZnO-CN NPs,并对其结构和组成进行了表征。通过标准体外实验评估了 ZnO-CN NPs 的抗氧化和抗炎潜力,结果表明其具有很强的清除自由基和抑制蛋白质变性的作用。纳米颗粒的抗菌活性针对常见的伤口病原体进行了测试,结果表明在最低浓度下就能有效抑制病原体。采用斑马鱼伤口愈合模型来评估纳米粒子的安全性和治疗效果,结果表明在测试浓度下纳米粒子无毒性,并能促进伤口更快愈合。此外,还分析了促炎细胞因子基因的表达,以了解 ZnO-CN NPs 在伤口愈合机制中的作用。总之,ZnO-CN NPs 具有强大的抗氧化、抗炎和抗菌特性,因此有望用于伤口治疗。鉴于 ZnO-CN NPs 的多功能特性以及在测试浓度下的无毒性,它们作为临床伤口管理的治疗剂具有巨大的潜力,值得在人体模型中进一步研究。
