| 1 | Optimizing mechanical property and cytocompatibility of the biodegradable Mg-Zn-Y-Nd alloy by hot extrusion and heat treatment显示文摘The Mg-Zn-Y-Nd alloy is a new type of degradable material for biomedical application. In the present study, Mg-6Zn-1.2Y-0.8Nd alloy was fabricated, and then extrusion and heat treatment were conducted to optimize its mechanical properties and cytocompatibility. The microstructure observation, mechanical property, degradation behavior and cytocompatibility tests were conducted on the Mg-Zn-Y-Nd alloy with three different states: as-cast(alloy C), as-extruded(alloy E) and extruded + heat treated(alloy EH).The results show that alloy C consists of coarse grains and continuous secondary phases. The extrusion process has caused incomplete recrystallization, and results in a mixed grain structure of elongated grains and small equiaxed grains(alloy E). The heat treatment process has promoted the recrystallization and homogenized the grain structure(alloy EH). Both the strength and ductility of the alloy has been improved by extrusion, but the following heat treatment has decreased the strength and increased the ductility.The degradation behavior of the alloy C and E alloys does not show much difference, but improves slightly in alloy EH, because the heat treatment has homogenized the microstructure and released the residual stress in the alloy. The directly and indirectly cell viability tests indicate that alloy EH exhibits the best cytocompatibility, which should be ascribed to its relative uniform degradation and low ion releasing rate. In summary, the combination of hot extrusion and heat treatment could optimize the mechanical property and cytocompatibility of the Mg-Zn-Y-Nd alloy together, which is beneficial for the future application of the alloy. | Yiyuan Kang Beining Du Yueming Li Baojie Wang Liyuan Sheng Longquan Shao Yufeng Zheng Tingfei Xi | 2019 | Journal of Materials Science & Technology2019,35,1: | 8 |
| 2 | Effective and biocompatible antibacterial surfaces via facile synthesis and surface modification of peptide polymers显示文摘It is an urgent need to tackle drug-resistance microbial infections that are associated with implantable biomedical devices.Host defense peptide-mimicking polymers have been actively explored in recent years to fight against drug-resistant microbes.Our recent report on lithium hexamethyldisilazide-initiated superfast polymerization on amino acid N-carboxyanhydrides enables the quick synthesis of host defense peptide-mimicking peptide polymers.Here we reported a facile and cost-effective thermoplastic polyurethane(TPU)surface modification of peptide polymer(DLL:BLG=90:10)using plasma surface activation and substitution reaction between thiol and bromide groups.The peptide polymer-modified TPU surfaces exhibited board-spectrum antibacterial property as well as effective contact-killing ability in vitro.Furthermore,the peptide polymer-modified TPU surfaces showed excellent biocompatibility,displaying no hemolysis and cytotoxicity.In vivo study using methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA)for subcutaneous implantation infectious model showed that peptide polymer-modified TPU surfaces revealed obvious suppression of infection and great histocompatibility,compared to bare TPU surfaces.We further explored the antimicrobial mechanism of the peptide polymer-modified TPU surfaces,which revealed a surface contact-killing mechanism by disrupting the bacterial membrane.These results demonstrated great potential of the peptide-modified TPU surfaces for practical application to combat bacterial infections that are associated with implantable materials and devices. | Ziyi Lu Yueming Wu Zihao Cong Yuxin Qian Xue Wu Ning Shao Zhongqian Qiao Haodong Zhang Yunrui She Kang Chen Hengxue Xiang Bin Sun Qian Yu Yuan Yuan Haodong Lin Meifang Zhu Runhui Liu | 2021 | Bioactive Materials2021,6,12: | 5 |
| 3 | The antimicrobial peptide PFR induces necroptosis mediated by ER stress and elevated cytoplasmic calcium and mitochondrial ROS levels: cooperation with Ara-C to act against acute myeloid leukemia显示文摘Dear Editor,Antimicrobial peptides(AMPs)are an ancient class of short polypeptides present in a large number of species in nature with a variety of functions.1 PFR(PFWRIRIRR-NH 2)is one kind of AMP identified among the derivatives of lactoferrin.2 Our previous results showed that PFR inhibited the proliferation of human acute myeloid leukemia(AML)HL60 cells potentially without toxicity against normal cells.In addition,PFR induced necrosis by membrane disruption detected using scanning electron micro-scopy.3 However,the underlying mechanisms of these effects are not clearly understood. | Yudie Lv Gang Shao Qiyu Zhang Xi Wang Yueming Meng Lingfei Wang Feiyan Huang Tianxin Yang Yuanting Jin Caiyun Fu | 2019 | Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy2019,4,1: | 1 |
| 4 | Host defense peptide-mimicking peptide polymer-based antibacterial hydrogel enables efficient healing of MRSA-infected wounds显示文摘Wound infections are a compelling health issue caused by the invasion and proliferation of pathogens in wound sites.Antibioticloaded hydrogels are widely used to achieve anti-infectious wound healing.However,due to the quick emergence of drugresistant bacteria,such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA),wound infection has been a formidable challenge to human health.To address MRSA-infected wounds,an antibacterial peptide polymer-loaded hyaluronic acid(HA)hydrogel(Gel-HA@P)is prepared.The peptide polymer is designed to mimic host defense peptides as the antibiotic alternative showing potent antibacterial activity,low susceptibility to drug resistance and good stability against proteolysis.HA is biocompatible and biodegradable hydrogel substrate as a primary constituent of the extracellular matrix and suitable for cell migration and wound healing.Gel-HA@P shows potent activity against MRSA in vitro and in vivo,low toxicity during the treatment and promotes the wound healing in vivo.This design has proven to be an effective and antibiotic-free strategy to enable the healing of MRSA-infected wounds. | Zhongqian Qiao Wenjing Zhang Yueming Wu Weinan Jiang Ning Shao Jiayang Xie Guixue Xia Qimeng Chen Zhefeng Liu Jingcheng Zou Jiawei Gu Shifang Luan Haodong Lin Runhui Liu | 2023 | Science China Chemistry2023,66,6: | 1 |
| 5 | Synergistic Combination of Biodegradable Peptide Polymer and Curcumin as Promising Antibiotic Substitution in Aquaculture to Alleviate the Global Challenge of Antimicrobial Resistance显示文摘The massive use of antibiotics in aquaculture and resulted antibacterial resistance problem urgently need antibiotic substitutions. Herein, we report a promising substitution of aquaculture antibiotics using a synergistic combination of biodegradable peptide polymers and curcumin, a natural compound from plant. The synergistic combination shows strong antibacterial activity against V. fluvialis and some other common bacteria in aquaculture. The membrane-damaging antibacterial mechanism echoes our finding that the synergistic combination will not induce bacteria to develop resistance after continuous use. The synergistic combination also displays effective cure on V. fluvialis-infected zebrafish. The biodegradability of the peptide polymer enables the combination to lose antibacterial activity and will not cause selective pressure on bacterial in the environment. Our study indicates potential application of synergistic composition, biodegradable peptide polymer and curcumin, as promising antibiotic substitution in aquaculture, which represents a promising strategy to address the global challenge of antimicrobial resistance. | Pengcheng Ma Yuan Chen Ning Shao Junyu Zhang Yueming Wu Runhui Liu | 2022 | Chinese Journal of Chemistry2022,40,24: | 1 |
| 6 | Long-term case-fatality rate of nontuberculous mycobacterial disease in people living with HIV显示文摘Background:Few data are available regarding the long-term case-fatality rate(CFR)among people living with HIV(PLWH)with nontuberculous mycobacteria(NTM)disease.The aim of this study is to analyze the long-term CFR in patients with NTM disease and to identify risk factors for their death.Methods:A retrospective cohort study of 379 cases of microbiologically confirmed NTM disease in PLWH was conducted from January 1,2012,to December 31,2020,in Shanghai,China.We used Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and the log-rank test to compare the long-term CFR in patients with disseminated NTM(DNTM)and localized NTM disease.Univariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis and a stepwise Cox proportional hazards regression model were used to estimate the predictors of long-term CFR.Results:The cohort was followed up for a median of 26 months.The total CFR was 15.7%by one year and increased to 22.6%at 5 years after the diagnosis of NTM disease.The 5-year CFR of PLWH with DNTM was significantly higher than that of PLWH with localized NTM(26.7%vs 19.6%for DNTM and localized NTM disease,respectively).Older age[hazard ratio(HR)=1.04,95%confidence interval(CI):1.02-1.06,P<0.001],comorbidity(HR=2.05,95%CI:1.21-3.49,P<0.01),DNTM(HR=2.08,95%CI:1.17-3.68,P<0.05),and HIV viral load(HR=1.32,95%CI:1.12-1.55,P<0.001)were all independent risk factors for long-term CFR.In the subgroup analysis,time to culture positivity was negatively correlated with CFR in patients with DNTM(HR=0.90,95%CI:0.82-0.98,P<0.05).Conclusions:NTM was associated with a high long-term CFR in PLWH.Further approaches to prevent NTM disease in PLWH are urgently needed. | Jingjing Hu Ling Gu Yueming Shao Renfang Zhang Tangkai Qi Jianjun Sun Zhenyan Wang Wei Song Yang Tang Jiangrong Wang Shuibao Xu Junyang Yang Yinzhong Shen Li Liu Jun Chen Hongzhou Lu | 2022 | Infectious Diseases of Poverty2022,11,1: | 0 |
| 7 | Tactfully revealing the working mechanisms on a tetraarylimidazole derivative:AIE characteristic,ESIPT process and ICT effect integrating in one molecule显示文摘Recently,a novel tetraarylimidazole derivative 2-(benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)-4-(4,5-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-1-phenyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)-phenol(be called MHBT herein)was architectured by our research group showing the fascinating synergy of aggregation-induced emission(AIE)characteristic,excited-state intramolecular proton transfer(ESIPT)mechanism and intramolecular charge transfer(ICT)effect.Nevertheless,a detailed and reasonable interpretation of its mechanisms both in theory is urgently needed.Consequently,to unveil the working mechanism meticulously,herein,we tactfully applied density functional theory(DFT)and time-dependent density functional theory(TD-DFT)methods to illuminate the underlying mechanisms in different solvent conditions.After optimizing the structures,the geometric parameters of hydrogen bonds(HBs),the infrared(IR)vibrational spectrum,the reduced density gradient(RDG)isosurfaces were calculated in detail,vividly explaining how the enhancement of HBs behaved as the driving force to proceed ESIPT process.Simultaneously,the frontier molecular orbitals(FMOs)combined with the potential energy curves(PECs)were conducted to interpretate the role and character of ICT and ESIPT in molecule MHBT.Further,the PECs of MHBT for dihedral angles in different organic solvents were calculated to compare the dominant torsion degree,rationalizing the AIE phenomenon from the view of the restriction of intramolecular rotation process.This work may well underpin the understanding of the interaction between different mechanisms in fluorescent dyes and thereby provide meaningful guideline for the design and construction of ideal molecules. | Min Liu Shibo Zhong Bin Feng Yueming Ren Xiaohui Liu Shuaige Bai Fei Chen Shao Liu Wenbin Zeng | 2023 | Chinese Chemical Letters2023,34,8: | 0 |
