Nosocomial infections caused by microbial biofilm formation on biomaterial surfaces such as urinary catheters are complicated by antibiotic resistance, representing a common problem in hospitalized patients. Therefore, we aimed to modify silicone catheters to resist microbial adherence and biofilm formation by the tested microorganisms. This study used a simple direct method to graft poly-acrylic acid onto silicone rubber films using gamma irradiation to endow the silicone surface with hydrophilic carboxylic acid functional groups. This modification allowed the silicone to immobilize ZnO nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) as an anti-biofilm. The modified silicone films were characterized by FT-IR, SEM, and TGA. The anti-adherence ability of the modified silicone films was evidenced by the inhibition of biofilm formation by otherwise strong biofilm-producing Gram-positive, Gram-negative, and yeast clinical isolates. The modified ZnO NPs grafted silicone showed good cytocompatibility with the human epithelial cell line. Moreover, studying the molecular basis of the inhibitory effect of the modified silicone surface on biofilm-associated genes in a selected Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolate showed that anti-adherence activity might be due to the significant downregulation of the expression of lasR, lasI, and lecB genes by 2, 2, and 3.3-fold, respectively. In conclusion, the modified silicone catheters were low-cost, offering broad-spectrum anti-biofilm activity with possible future applications in hospital settings.

Abstract

Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is one of the devastating complications in diabetes mellitus (DM). Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is one of the incretins secreted from L cells in the intestine. Crocin (a carotenoid component of saffron) has antioxidants properties. We investigated the renal effects of Exendin-4 as a GLP-1 agonist and Crocin in DN.Thirty male rats were divided into five groups: control, type II DM, type II DM + Exendin-4, type II DM + Crocin ‏ and type II DM + Exendine-4 + Crocin. At the end of the experimental period, systolic and diastolic blood pressures were measured, and GFR was calculated. Blood and urine samples were collected for biochemical analysis. Tissue samples were collected from the kidney for histological examination and biochemical measurements of protein expression.Treatment with GLP-1 agonist or Crocin caused a significant improvement in renal function. Better results were achieved with simultaneous administration of both drugs with inhibition of notch signalling pathway and the related proteins.

Elchaghaby, M. A., S. Rashad, and Y. M. Yousry, "Inhibitory effect of silver nanoparticles synthesized using the chamomile extract against Streptococcus mutans cariogenic pathogen.", Dental and medical problems, vol. 60, issue 3, pp. 483-488, 2023. Abstract

BACKGROUND: With the recent use and development of nanomaterials, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are gaining much attention as a promising antibacterial agent for use in caries prevention.

OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to biosynthesize AgNPs using chamomile extract as a reducing agent and to investigate its inhibitory effect against Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) dental bacteria.

MATERIAL AND METHODS: Chamomile extract was prepared by sonication and added dropwise to silver nitrate (1mM) solution to synthesize AgNPs. Its formation was confirmed spectrophotometrically, and its size was determined. The disc diffusion method was used to test the antibacterial activity of the biosynthesized AgNPs against S. mutans. Also, its minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was assessed.

RESULTS: The spectrum of biosynthesized AgNPs showed a maximum peak at 454 nm, and the peak area increased with increasing time. The mean AgNP size was 41 nm. The inhibition zone diameter recorded for AgNPs against S. mutans was 10 mm, while the MIC was 280 μg/ml.

CONCLUSIONS: AgNPs biosynthesized using chamomile extract were proven to exert good antibacterial activity against cariogenic S. mutans. Using chamomile extract as a reducing agent can provide a rapid, affordable, and eco-friendly approach for AgNP production, which could be incorporated into various dental vehicles for dental caries prevention.
