A H2O2-Supplied Supramolecular Material for Post-irradiated Infected Wound Treatment
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a light triggered therapy by producing reactive oxygen species (ROS), but traditional PDT may suffer from the real-time illumination that reduces the compliance of treatment and cause phototoxicity. A supramolecular photoactive G-quartet based material is reported, which is self-assembled from guanosine (G) and 4-formylphenylboronic acid/1,8-diaminooctane, with incorporation of riboflavin as a photocatalyst to the G4 nanowire, for post-irradiation photodynamic antibacterial therapy. The G4-materials, which exhibit hydrogel-like properties, provide a scaffold for loading riboflavin, and the reductant guanosine for the riboflavin for phototriggered production of the therapeutic H 2 O 2 . The photocatalytic activity shows great tolerance against room temperature storage and heating/cooling treatments. The riboflavin-loaded G4 hydrogels, after photo-irradiation, are capable of killing gram-positive bacteria (e.g., Staphylococcus aureus ), gram-negative bacteria (e.g., Escherichia coli ), and multidrug resistant bacteria (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus ) with sterilization ratio over 99.999%. The post-irradiated hydrogels also exhibit great antibacterial activity in the infected wound of the rats, revealing the potential of this novel concept in the light therapy.
