Background Due to the intelligent survival strategy and self-preservation of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), many antibiotics are ineffective in treating MRSA infections. Nano-drug delivery systems have emerged as a new method to overcome this barrier. The aim of this study was to construct a novel nano-drug delivery system for the treatment of MRSA infection, and to evaluate the therapeutic effect and biotoxicity of this system. We prepared a nano silver metal-organic framework using 2-methylimidazole as ligand and silver nitrate as ion provider. Vancomycin (Vanc) was loaded with Ag-MOF, and nano-sized platelet vesicles were prepared to encapsulate Ag-MOF-Vanc, thus forming the novel platelet membrane-camouflaged nanoparticles PLT@Ag-MOF-Vanc.Results The synthesized Ag-MOF particles had uniform size and shape of radiating corona. The mean nanoparticle size and zeta potential of PLT@Ag-MOF-Vanc were 148 nm and − 25.6 mV, respectively. The encapsulation efficiency (EE) and loading efficiency (LE) of vancomycin were 81.0 and 64.7 %, respectively. PLT@Ag-MOF-Vanc was shown to be a pH-responsive nano-drug delivery system with good biocompatibility. Ag-MOF had a good inhibitory effect on the growth of three common clinical strains (Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and S. aureus). PLT@Ag-MOF-Vanc showed better antibacterial activity against common clinical strains in vitro than free vancomycin. PLT@Ag-MOF-Vanc killed MRSA through multiple approaches, including interfering with the metabolism of bacteria, catalyzing reactive oxygen species production, destroying the integrity of cell membrane, and inhibiting biofilm formation. Due to the encapsulation of the platelet membrane, PLT@Ag-MOF-Vanc can bind to the surface of the MRSA bacteria and the sites of MRSA infection. PLT@Ag-MOF-Vanc had a good anti-infective effect in mouse MRSA pneumonia model, which was significantly superior to free vancomycin, and has no obvious toxicity.Conclusion sPLT@Ag-MOF-Vanc is a novel effective targeted drug delivery system, which is expected to be used safely in anti-infective therapy of MRSA.Graphic abstract

Multifunctional nanoplatforms have been developed into advanced drug delivery systems for cancer therapy. In this study, we report a charge-switchable nanocapsule with multistage pH-responsive behaviors. First, DOX-encapsulated and oleylamine-embedded hollow structures with a diameter of 132 ± 21 nm are prepared via the double emulsion method. Subsequently, the hollow structures are encompassed by Gd-DTPA-, chlorin e6 (Ce6)-, and folate (FA)-modified BSA to form tumour-targeted, dual NIR/MR imaging-guided and chemo–photodynamic therapeutic nanoplatforms. Importantly, the nanocapsule can intelligently switch its surface charge to positive under mildly acidic conditions (pH 6.5) with no release of Ce6 and DOX, which is confirmed by ξ-potential and cumulative release measurements. Moreover, confocal imaging pictures demonstrate that acid-sensitive DOX sealed in nanocapsules is progressively released into the nuclei of MGC-803 cells. These advantages as well as FA-targeting facilitate effective endocytosis and synergistic therapeutic efficacy. Selective tumour accumulation and long tumour retention time are further indicated by NIR/MR in vivo imaging. In addition, excellent therapeutic efficacy combined with chemotherapy (DOX) and photodynamic therapy (PDT) is observed with the tumour eventually ablating at the 15th day. All results demonstrate that the as-prepared nanocapsules hold great potential for clinical cancer theranostics.

The accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) within colonic tissue represents a critical factor in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The application of antioxidant therapy utilizing artificial nanozymes has emerged as an effective strategy for the management of IBD. Nevertheless, current nanozymes exhibit limitations in stability, tissue compatibility, and systemic toxicity, which constrain their applicability within the biomedical domain. Herein, we designed a biocompatible colon-targeted integrated therapeutic system (BiOSe-RA@FP), the core of which is Bi 2 O 2 Se (BiOSe) nanosheets encapsulating natural plant rosmarinic acid (RA), enclosed within pH-responsive enteric hydrogel microspheres (FP). This system ensures targeted delivery of BiOSe-RA to the inflamed colon and prolongs its local retention time. BiOSe-RA fully exerts the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) in the colon, effectively removing ROS (·OH, ·O 2 − , and H 2 O 2 ). Concurrently, BiOSe-RA exerts excellent anti-inflammatory activities in the colon, which could inhibit the secretion of inflammatory factors, and induce macrophages to polarize the M2 type. The ultimate effect is to preserve the integrity of the intestinal epithelial mucosal barrier and restore microbial homeostasis in the colon by mitigating intestinal oxidative stress and ameliorating the inflammatory microenvironment. The constructed BiOSe-RA@FP could regulate intestinal microbial community disorders, providing a safe and effective new solution for the treatment of IBD.

The hydrophilic benzimidazole@ZIF-8@tannic acid (ZBT) nanoparticles and the pH-responsive modified epoxy (EP) coatings based on ZBT were prepared innovatively. The result exhibited that the ZBT had excellent compatibility with the EP coatings, and the addition of ZBT improved the protective properties of the EP coatings, which were attributed to the formation of the Zn(OH) 2 deposition film, the inhibitor adsorption film and the ferric tannate film on the steel substrate. Meanwhile, the original adhesion and wet adhesion strengths of the ZBT/EP coatings were both enhanced, which was mainly attributed to the enhanced interaction between the ZBT/EP coatings and the carbon steel, and the crosslinking density and the degree of curing of the coatings were also improved. After 173 days of immersion, the impedance value of the ZBT coatings remained at 7.89 × 10 7 Ω·cm 2 , while the EP coatings decreased to 3.94 × 10 3 Ω·cm 2 . The wet adhesion loss of EP and ZBT/EP coatings was 63.6 % and 27.1 %, respectively. In the end, the protective mechanism of the ZBT/EP coatings was first proposed.

Stimuli-responsive block copolymers have exhibited their feasibility for drug delivery and analysis of biomolecules. However, study of the electrophoretic behavior of antibiotics by open tubular capillary electrochromatography (OT-CEC) based on smart block copolymers coatings is still a substantial challenge. Herein, we reported an OT-CEC protocol for analysis of cephalosporin antibiotics with pH-responsive block copolymers as coatings. By using the reversible addition-fragmentation chain-transfers radical polymerisation technique, the smart poly(styrene-maleic anhydride-acrylic acid) (P(St-MAn-AA)) was synthesized and subsequently chemical bonded onto the inner walls of amino-grafted capillaries. The pH induced changes in the stretch/curl states of P(St-MAn-AA) chains were used to generate an adjustable hydrophobic/hydrophilic interaction and hydrogen bonds between the polymer coatings and the analytes. The OT-CEC performance was evaluated by varying the monomer ratios, polymer coating amounts and layers, buffer concentrations and pH values. Baseline separation of the three-test antibiotics was achieved at pH 8.0. The proposed OT-CEC technique was further applied to the determination of rat serum antibiotics in the metabolic processes. The present work demonstrates an enhancement in antibiotics separation efficiency, and shows a great potential for the preparation of stimuli-responsive block copolymers coatings and in OT-CEC analysis of real samples in living bio-systems.

Tumor cells transmit various immunosuppressive signals and induce a dysfunctional state in T cells, which essentially leads to immune escape and tumor progression. However, developing effective strategies to counteract the domestication of T cells by tumor cells remains a challenge. Here, we prepared pH-responsive lipid nanoparticles (NL/PLDs) co-loaded with PCSK9 shRNA, lonidamine (LND), and low-dose doxorubicin (DOX). NL/PLDs can awaken domesticated T cells function by sending pro-activation, pro-recognition, and pro-killing signals by increasing tumor immunogenicity, increasing the expression of major histocompatibility complex I (MHC-I) on tumor cells, and alleviating the suppression effect of tumor-secreted lactic acid (LA) on the T cell effector function, respectively. In melanoma-bearing mice, NL/PLDs effectively relieved tumor immunosuppressive microenvironment (TIME) and enhanced the antitumor immunity mediated by CD8 + T cells. Furthermore, when combined with aPD-1, NL/PLDs demonstrated strong antitumor effects and increased immunotherapeutic efficacy. This regulatory strategy provides new insights for enhancing immunotherapy by regulating tumor immunosuppressive signals and shows significant potential for clinical tumor treatment.

Treatment of diabetic wounds is a significant clinical challenge due to the massive infections caused by bacteria. In this study, multifunctional glycol chitosan and polydopamine-coated BiO 1-x I (GPBO) nanoparticles (NPs) with near-infrared (NIR) photothermal and photocatalytic abilities are prepared. When infection occurs, the local microenvironment becomes acidic, and the pH-switchable GPBO can target the bacteria of the wound site. The NIR-assisted GPBO treatment exhibits anti-bacterial effects with fast response, high efficiency, and long duration to Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa , and Staphylococcus aureus . GPBO achieves excellent photothermal imaging and CT imaging of the mouse subcutaneous abscess model. With the assistance of NIR irradiation, the GPBO promotes the healing of the diabetic wound model with the effects of anti-bacteria, anti-inflammation, the M2 polarization promotion of macrophages, and angiogenesis. This is the first-time report of nano-sized BiO 1-x I. The synthesis and selected application for the imaging and targeted therapy of diabetic wounds are presented. This study offers an example of the NP-assisted precise diagnosis and therapy of bacterial infection diseases.

The development of novel, safe, and efficient pest and disease control technologies for agricultural crops remains a pivotal area of research. In this study, by combining ZIF-8 and ZIF-90, a water-stable, pH-responsive bilayer MOF nanoparticle (NP) named Z8@Z90 was created, and tebuconazole (TEB) was added to form T@Z8@Z90, used for controlling peanut southern blight. The loading efficiency of TEB within the T@Z8@Z90 reached 26.15%, enabling rapid release in acidic environments triggered by oxalic acid (OA) secreted by Sclerotium rolfsii. In vitro experiments showed that T@Z8@Z90 can regulate the oxalic acid secretion of S. rolfsii and destroy its cell membrane structure. Additional experiments revealed that T@Z8@Z90 reduced sclerotial formation, decreased the total protein content of sclerotia, and influenced their sensitivity to pesticides, thereby mitigating the risk of reinfection by S. rolfsii. Notably, T@Z8@Z90 exhibited efficient translocation within peanut seedlings, being absorbed through the roots and transported to the leaves. At a concentration of 200 mg/L, T@Z8@Z90 exhibited high safety profiles for peanut seedling growth compared to the TEB suspension. Moreover, T@Z8@Z90 is safer for earthworms than TEB SC. Overall, this study offers valuable insights for the management of soil-borne diseases in agriculture and contributes to the advancement of sustainable agricultural practices.

In the treatment of solid tumors, the complex barriers composed of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) prevent drug delivery and T cells infiltration into tumor tissues. Although nanocarriers hold great prospects in drug delivery, fibrosis causes the biological barrier and immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (ITM) that impairs the anti-tumor efficacy of nanocarriers. Here, a small dendritic macromolecule loaded with doxorubicin (PAMAM-ss-DOX) (DP) is synthesized and encapsulated into pH-responsive nanoliposome, together with adjuvant toll-like receptor 7/8 (TLR7/8) agonist resiquimod (R848) and losartan (LOS). The pH-responsive liposome facilitates the simultaneous and effective delivery of DP, R848, and LOS, which can decompose and release these drugs under the acidic tumor microenvironment. The small sized DP (≈25 nm) with the ability to penetrate into tumor tissue and immunogenic cell death (ICD) can reverse the ITM and elicit immune response, which is equivalent to the effect of an in situ vaccine. Moreover, LOS reduces the activity of CAFs effectively, which can contribute to the infiltration of T cells. Therefore, this nano-platform provides a new therapeutic strategy for enhanced chemo-immunotherapy.
