The increasing spread of antibiotic resistance in bacterial pathogens poses a huge threat to global human health. Precise targeting of bacterial pathogens while avoiding collateral damage to healthy tissues has become the overriding goal for bacterial infection treatment. Inspired by the host specificity of bacteriophages, a biomimetic intelligent platform was designed for highly precise photothermal treatment herein.
The increasing spread of antibiotic resistance in bacterial pathogens poses a huge threat to global human health. Precise targeting of bacterial pathogens while avoiding collateral damage to healthy tissues has become the overriding goal for bacterial infection treatment. Inspired by the host specificity of bacteriophages, a biomimetic intelligent platform was designed for highly precise photothermal treatment herein. As proof-of-concept, the lysin cell-binding domain (CBD) from a newly discovered virulent methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) phage Z was applied to the functionalization of gold nanosheets. Our results demonstrated that the bionanocomposite gold particles (Au@PEG-CBDz) could be effectively delivered directly to MRSA and kill them effectively under near infrared irradiation in vitro, while displaying good in vivo biocompatibility. This work is the first to report the combination of phage lysin navigatory function with photothermal effect-induced bactericidal activity from Au nanosheets, providing a novel therapeutic mode for the precision treatment of antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections.
