[PMID: 38660254 PMCID: PMC11040063 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e29500] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/19/2023] [Revised: 04/05/2024] [Accepted: 04/09/2024] [Indexed: 04/26/2024] Open
Abstract
The emergence of antimicrobial resistance among biofilm forming pathogens aimed to search for the efficient and novel alternative strategies. Metallic nanoparticles have drawn a considerable attention because of their significant applications in various fields. Numerous methods are developed for the generation of these nanoparticles however, mycogenic (fungal-mediated) synthesis is attractive due to high yields, easier handling, eco-friendly and being energy efficient when compared with conventional physico-chemical methods. Moreover, mycogenic synthesis provides fungal derived biomolecules that coat the nanoparticles thus improving their stability. The process of mycogenic synthesis can be extracellular or intracellular depending on the fungal genera used and various factors such as temperature, pH, biomass concentration and cultivation time may influence the synthesis process. This review focuses on the synthesis of metallic nanoparticles by using fungal mycelium, mechanism of synthesis, factors affecting the mycosynthesis and also describes their potential applications as antioxidants and antibiofilm agents. Moreover, the utilization of mycogenic nanoparticles as quorum quenching agent in hampering the bacterial cell-cell communication (quorum sensing) has also been discussed.

Evaluation of the biological responses of silver nanoparticles synthesized using Pelargonium x hortorum extract. RSC Adv 2023; 13:29784-29800. [PMID: 37829709 PMCID: PMC10565737 DOI: 10.1039/d3ra00201b] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2023] [Accepted: 09/27/2023] [Indexed: 10/14/2023] Open
Abstract
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are one of the widely studied nanomaterials for diverse biomedical applications, in particular, as antimicrobial agents to kill bacteria, fungi, and viruses. In this report, AgNPs were synthesized using a geranium (Pelargonium x hortorum) leaves extract and tested for their antimicrobial and cytotoxic activity and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. Using green biosynthesis, the leaves extract was employed as a reducing and stabilizing agent. Synthesis parameters like reaction time and precursor (silver nitrate AgNO3) volume final were modified, and the products were tested against Streptococcus mutans. For the first time, the metabolomic analysis of extract, we have identified more than 50 metabolites. The UV-Vis analysis showed a peak ranging from 410-430 nm, and TEM confirmed their nearly spherical morphology for all NPs. The antimicrobial activity of the NPs revealed a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 10 μg mL-1. Concerning cytotoxicity, a dose-time-dependent effect was observed with a 50% cellular cytotoxicity concentration (CC50) of 4.51 μg mL-1 at 24 h. Interestingly, the cell nuclei were visualized using fluorescence microscopy, and no significant changes were observed. These results suggest that synthesized spherical AgNPs are promising potential candidates for medical applications.

Abstract
Psidium guajava fruits are highly appreciated for their nutrients and bioactive compounds content, which contribute to their antioxidant and antimicrobial capacities. The purpose of this study was to determine bioactive compound (phenolic, flavonoids, and carotenoid contents), antioxidant activity (DPPH, ABTS, ORAC, and FRAP), and antibacterial potential against MDR and food-borne pathogenic strains of Escherichia coli, and Staphylococcus aureus during different stages of fruit ripening.The results elucidated that ripe fruits (methanolic extract) contain the highest total phenolic, flavonoids, and carotenoid contents (417.36 ± 2.63 µg GAE/gm of FW, 711.78 ± 0.70 µg QE/gm of FW and 0.683 ± 0.06 µg/gm of FW) followed by hexane, ethyl acetate, and aqueous. Methanolic extract of the ripe fruits showed the highest antioxidant activity when measured by DPPH (61.55 ± 0.91%), FRAP (31.83 ± 0.98 mM Fe(II)/gm of FW), ORAC (17.19 ± 0.47 mM TE/ gm of FW), and ABTS (41.31 ± 0.99 µmol Trolox/gm of FW) assays. In the antibacterial assay, the ripe stage had the highest antibacterial activity against MDR and food-borne pathogenic strains of Escherichia coli, and Staphylococcus aureus. The methanolic ripe extract was found to possess maximum antibacterial activity ZOI, MIC, and IC50 18.00 ± 1.00 mm, 95.95 ± 0.05%, and 0.58 μg/ml; 15.66 ± 0.57 mm, 94.66 ± 0.19%, and 0.50 μg/ml, respectively, against pathogenic and MDR strains of E. coli and 22.33 ± 0.57 mm, 98.97 ± 0.02%, and 0.26 μg/ml; 20.33 ± 1.15 mm, 96.82 ± 0.14%, and 0.39 μg/ml, respectively, against pathogenic and MDR strains of S. aureus. Considering the bioactive compounds and beneficial effects, these fruit extracts could be promising antibiotic alternatives, avoiding antibiotic overuse and its negative effects on human health and the environment, and can be recommended as a novel functional food.

Abstract
Actinobacteria obtained from the least explored Indian regions were studied for their ability to suppress meningitis-causing bacteria in nanoparticle form. Drug-resistant bacteria and long-term treatment with different medications make meningitis control complicated. Thus, new meningitis drugs are required to combat MDR bacteria. In this study, secondary metabolites isolated from actinomycetes strains, Microbacterium proteolyticum LA2(R) and Streptomyces rochei LA2(O), were employed to synthesize silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) at 37 °C for seven days incubation. UV-Vis spectroscopy, TEM, FTIR, and HPLC studies were used for the confirmation of the synthesis of AgNPs. Furthermore, these NPs demonstrated antibacterial and antibiofilm activities against meningitis-causing bacteria. The average size of LA2(R) and LA2(O) isolated secondary metabolites mediated AgNPs was observed to be 27 ± 1and 29 ± 2 nm by TEM analysis. FTIR study of RAgNPs and OAgNPs revealed that presence of peaks with positions of 1637.17 cm1 and 1636.10 cm1 for C=O amide group appearances in the amide I linkage. These NPs were effective against bacterial pathogens such as S. pneumoniae, H. influenzae, and N. meningitidis and confirmed by their MICs, i.e., 109.4, 120.60, and 138.80 μg/ml of RAgNPs and 105.80, 114.40 and 129.06 μg/ml of OAgNPs, respectively. Additionally, the production of biofilms is impeded by these nanoparticles on S. pneumoniae, H. influenzae, and N. meningitidis by 73.14%, 71.89% and 64.81%, respectively. These findings confirm the potential role of synthesized AgNPs against biofilm forming meningitis causing Multidrug resistance (MDR) microbes.

Silver Nanoparticles Produced by Laser Ablation and Re-Irradiation Are Effective Preventing Peri-Implantitis Multispecies Biofilm Formation. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms231912027.

Abstract
Implant-associated infection due to biofilm formation is a growing problem. Given that silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) have shown antibacterial effects, our goal is to study their effect against multispecies biofilm involved in the development of peri-implantitis. To this purpose, Ag-NPs were synthesized by laser ablation in de-ionized water using two different lasers, leading to the production of colloidal suspensions. Subsequently, part of each suspension was subjected to irradiation one and three times with the same laser source with which it was obtained. Ag-NPs were immobilized on the surface of titanium discs and the resultant materials were compared with unmodified titanium coupons. Nanoparticles were physico-chemically analysed to determine their shape, crystallinity, chemical composition, and mean diameter. The materials were incubated for 90 min or 48 h, to evaluate bacterial adhesion or biofilm formation respectively with Staphylococcus aureus or oral mixed bacterial flora composed of Streptococcus oralis, Actinomyces naeslundii, Veionella dispar, and Porphyromonas gingivalis. Ag-NPs help prevent the formation of biofilms both by S. aureus and by mixed oral bacterial flora. Nanoparticles re-irradiated three times showed the biggest antimicrobial effects. Modifying dental implants in this way could prevent the development of peri-implantitis.

Abstract
Purpose Titanium dioxide nanoparticles, 25 nm in size of crystallites (TiO2 P25), are among the most produced nanomaterials worldwide. The broad use of TiO2 P25 in material science has implied a request to evaluate their biological effects, especially in the lungs. Hence, the pulmonary A549 cell line has been used to estimate the effects of TiO2 P25. However, the reports have provided dissimilar results on caused toxicity. Surprisingly, the physicochemical factors influencing TiO2 P25 action in biological models have not been evaluated in most reports. Thus, the objective of the present study is to characterize the preparation of TiO2 P25 for biological testing in A549 cells and to evaluate their biological effects. Methods We determined the size and crystallinity of TiO2 P25. We used four techniques for TiO2 P25 dispersion. We estimated the colloid stability of TiO2 P25 in distilled water, isotonic NaCl solution, and cell culture medium. We applied the optimal dispersion conditions for testing the biological effects of TiO2 P25 (0–100 µg.mL−1) in A549 cells using biochemical assays (dehydrogenase activity, glutathione levels) and microscopy. Results We found that the use of fetal bovine serum in culture medium is essential to maintain sufficient colloid stability of dispersed TiO2 P25. Under these conditions, TiO2 P25 were unable to induce a significant impairment of A549 cells according to the results of biochemical and microscopy evaluations. When the defined parameters for the use of TiO2 P25 in A549 cells were met, similar results on the biological effects of TiO2 P25 were obtained in two independent cell laboratories. Conclusion We optimized the experimental conditions of TiO2 P25 preparation for toxicity testing in A549 cells. The results presented here on TiO2 P25-induced cellular effects are reproducible. Therefore, our results can be helpful for other researchers using TiO2 P25 as a reference material.

Abstract
Silver nanoparticles play a significant role in biomedical sciences due to their unique properties allowing for their use as an effective sensing and remediation platform Herein, the green synthesis of silver nanostructures (Ag NSs), prepared via aqueous extract of waste Brassica oleracea leaves in the presence of silver nitrate solution (10-4 M), is reported. The Ag NSs are fully characterized and their efficacy with respect to 4-nitrophenol reduction, glucose sensing, and microbes is determined. Visually, the color of silver nitrate containing solution altered from colorless to yellowish, then reddish grey, confirming the formation of Ag NSs. HRTEM and SEAD studies revealed the Ag NSs to have different morphologies (triangular, rod-shaped, hexagonal, etc., within a size range of 20–40 nm) with face-centered cubic (fcc) crystal structure. The Ag NSs possess high efficacy for nitrophenol reduction (<11 min and degradation efficiency of 98.2%), glucose sensing (LOD: 5.83 µM), and antimicrobial activity (E. coli and B. subtilis with clearance zones of 18.3 and 14 mm, respectively). Thus, the current study alludes towards the development of a cost-effective, sustainable, and efficient three-in-one platform for biomedical and environmental applications.

Abstract
Background: Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are used in industrial applications as catalysts, sanitary materials, and health supplements. Generally, AgNPs have shown cytotoxicity such as cell membrane damage. However, the mechanisms of their toxicity have not been completely elucidated. Methods: The cellular effects (cell viability, induction of chemokine and cellular oxidative stress) of two AgNP water suspensions (AgNP-A for cosmetic application and AgNP-B for industrial application) on epithelial-like A549 cells and macrophage-like differentiated THP-1 (dTHP-1) cells were examined. Results: AgNPs caused enhancement of IL-8 expression and oxidative stress. The cellular uptake of AgNP-A cells was observed. However, the cellular uptake of AgNP-B into A549 cells was hardly observed. Moreover, the intracellular Ag level was increased by AgNP suspensions exposure. Cell viability was not affected by AgNP suspensions exposure. Conclusions: AgNPs induce chemokine expression and cellular oxidative stress on culture cells. The intracellular Ag level may be important for these cellular effects.

Antitumor Activity against A549 Cancer Cells of Three Novel Complexes Supported by Coating with Silver Nanoparticles. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23062980. [PMID: 35328401 PMCID: PMC8950742 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23062980] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2021] [Revised: 02/28/2022] [Accepted: 03/07/2022] [Indexed: 12/26/2022] Open
Abstract
A novel biologically active organic ligand L (N’-benzylidenepyrazine-2-carbohydrazonamide) and its three coordination compounds have been synthesized and structurally described. Their physicochemical and biological properties have been thoroughly studied. Cu(II), Zn(II), and Cd(II) complexes have been analyzed by F-AAS spectrometry and elemental analysis. The way of metal–ligand coordination was discussed based on FTIR spectroscopy and UV-VIS-NIR spectrophotometry. The thermal behavior of investigated compounds was studied in the temperature range 25–800 °C. All compounds are stable at room temperature. The complexes decompose in several stages. Magnetic studies revealed strong antiferromagnetic interaction. Their cytotoxic activity against A549 lung cancer cells have been studied with promising results. We have also investigated the biological effect of coating studied complexes with silver nanoparticles. The morphology of the surface was studied using SEM imaging.
