Mesoporous silica nanoparticles as carrier to overcome bacterial drug resistant barriers

Jie Zhuang et al.

Summary: Due to abuse of antibiotics, antibiotic resistance has become a global health threat. Many existing antibiotics have lost their effectiveness against drug-resistant bacteria, and the discovery of new antibiotics is becoming increasingly difficult. It is necessary to develop new strategies to combat antibiotic resistance. Nano-drug delivery systems, particularly mesoporous silica nano-particles (MSNs), have been extensively investigated as carriers of antibiotics. MSNs improve the delivery of antibiotics by reducing size, modifying surface, and regulating shapes. Furthermore, MSNs hybridized with metal ions or nanoparticles enhance the antibacterial effect by controlling the release of metal ions or increasing active oxygen species. Metal-capped MSNs can also load antibiotics to exert a synergistic antibacterial effect. This paper reviews the current application of various nanomaterials as antibacterial agents, with a focus on MSNs and approaches for improving their antibacterial effect.

No country for old antibiotics! Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) as next-generation treatment for skin and soft tissue infection

Mina Raileanu et al.

Summary: In recent years, the treatment of skin infections and chronic wounds has become challenging due to the unprecedented rise of bacterial antibiotic resistance and lack of adequate therapies. In this review, the use of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) is discussed as a potential new treatment strategy. The appropriate selection of AMPs based on their characteristics and physicochemical properties is emphasized to maximize their antibacterial efficacy against multi-drug resistant pathogens. Clinical trials investigating the efficacy of AMPs in skin and soft tissue infections are comprehensively assessed, and two strategies using AMPs to overcome antibiotic resistance are presented.

Copper-enhanced silver releasing from bimetal-containing bioactive glass (AgCu/80S) elicits antibacterial efficacy against drug-resistant Staphylococcus aureus

Ya-Chi Huang et al.

Summary: In this study, a bioactive glass named AgCu/80S was prepared using the sol-gel method, which is capable of co-releasing silver and copper. The results of thermal gravimetric analysis, X-ray diffraction analysis, and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry analysis confirmed the successful incorporation of silver and copper into the bioactive glass. Additionally, copper in AgCu/80S could enhance the release of silver, inhibiting the growth of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. In conclusion, AgCu/80S is a multifunctional bioactive material with antibacterial properties, and further studies are needed to explore its potential.

Effect of the ratio of R = [Na2O]/[B2O3] on the structure, Ag species, and antibacterial activity of Ag-doped borosilicate glass

Ruixin Guo et al.

Summary: The composition effect, especially the ratio of [Na2O]/[B2O3], was investigated in this study for Ag-doped three-component Na2O-B2O3-SiO2 glass systems. Experimental results showed that increased addition of Na2O facilitated the reduction of Ag+ to Ag-0 and caused a decrease in antibacterial activity.

Incorporation of 45S5 bioglass via sol-gel in β-TCP scaffolds: Bioactivity and antimicrobial activity evaluation

B. R. Spirandeli et al.

Summary: The beta-TCP bioresorbable scaffolds were impregnated with 45S5 bioglass to improve biocompatibility, bioactivity, and antimicrobial activity without compromising mechanical strength and porosity. The incorporation of bioglass enhanced bioactivity, cell viability, and antimicrobial activity, making beta-TCP/45S5 scaffolds potential candidates for tissue engineering, particularly in bone tissue regeneration and recovery.
