AB  - Immobilizing antifungal polyenes such as nystatin (Nys) and amphotericin B (AmB) into biodegradable formulations is advantageous compared to free drug administration providing sustained release, reduced dosing due to localized targeting and overall reduced systemic drug toxicity. In this study, we encapsulated Nys and AmB in medium chain length polyhydroxyalkanoates (mcl-PHA) microspheres (7–8 µm in diameter). The obtained formulations have been validated for antifungal activity in vitro against a panel of pathogenic fungi including species of Candida, Aspergillus, Microsporum and Trichophyton genera and toxicity and efficacy in vivo using the zebrafish model of disseminated candidiasis. While free polyenes, especially AmB, were highly toxic to zebrafish embryos at the effective (MIC) doses, after their loading into mcl-PHA microspheres, inner organ toxicity and teratogenicity associated with both drugs were not observed, even at 100 × MIC doses. The obtained mcl-PHA/polyene formulations have successfully eradicated C. albicans infection and showed an improved therapeutic profile in zebrafish by enhancing infected embryos survival. This approach is contributing to the antifungal arsenal as polyenes, although the first broad-spectrum antifungals on the market are still the gold standard for treatment of fungal infections.

AB  - The aims of the study were: 1) to evaluate the effect on biofilm formation of barrier membranes and titanium surfaces coated with graphene-oxide (GO); 2) to analyze the connection between the superficial topography of the tested materials and the amount of bacterial accumulation on them and 3) to analyze the biocompatibility of GO functionalized discs using the zebrafish model. Methods: Single species bacterial biofilms (Streptococcus oralis, Veilonella parvula, Fusobacterium nucleatum, Porphyomonas gingivalis) were grown on GO-free membranes, membranes coated with 2 and 10 μg/ml of GO, GO-free and GO-coated titanium discs. The biofilms were analyzed by determining the CFU count and by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and the materials’ topography by Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). Zebrafish model was used to determine the materials’ toxicity and inflammatory effects. Results: AFM showed similar roughness of control and GO-coated materials. CFU counts on GO-coated discs were significantly lower than on control discs for all species. CFU counts of S. oralis, V. parvula and P. gingivalis were lower on biofilms grown on both types of GO-coated membranes than on GO-free membrane. SEM analysis showed different formation of single species biofilm of S. oralis on control and GO-coated materials. GO-functionalized titanium discs do not induce toxic or inflammatory effects. Significance: Titanium implant surfaces functionalized with GO have shown to be biocompatible and less susceptible to biofilm formation. These results encourage further in vivo investigation of the tested materials on infection prevention, specifically in prevention and reduction of peri-implant mucositis and periimplantitis incidence.

AB  - We have studied the effect of compositions and methods of preparation on the physico-chemical and biocompatible behavior of the hydrogel matrices. Hydrogel matrices are synthesized by free radical polymerization of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate net and with gelatin. Highly porous hydrogel structures were obtained by porogenation, and by cryogenic treatment followed by freeze-drying. All samples were characterized for structural, morphological, absorption, degradation and in vitro (healthy human fibroblast cell line) and in vivo (zebrafishDanio rerio) biocompatible properties. The obtained results show that cryo samples, especially with gelatin show better, favorable absorption, morphological and biocompatible properties in comparison with PHEMA samples, which makes these materials highly attractive for biomedical uses.

AB  - Star-shaped polymers of biodegradable aliphatic polyester, poly(epsilon-caprolactone), PCL, with different number of arms (three, four, and six) were synthesized by ring-opening polymerization initiated by multifunctional alcohols used as cores. As potential biomaterials, synthesized star-shaped poly(epsilon-caprolactone)s,sPCL, were thoroughly characterized in terms of their degradation under different pH conditions and in respect to their cytotoxicity. The in vitro degradation was performed in phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) and hydrochloric acid solution (pH 1.0) over 5 weeks. Degradation ofsPCL films was followed by the weight loss measurements, GPC, FTIR, and AFM analysis. While the most of the samples were stable against the abiotic hydrolysis at pH 7.4 after 5 weeks of degradation, degradation was significantly accelerated in the acidic medium. Degradation rate of polymer films was affected by the polymer architecture and molecular weight. The molecular weight profiles during the degradation revealed random chain scission of the ester bonds indicating bulk degradation mechanism of hydrolysis at pH 7.4, while acidic hydrolysis proceeded through the bulk degradation associated with surface erosion, confirmed by AFM. The in vitro toxicity tests, cytotoxicity applying normal human fibroblasts (MRC5) and embryotoxicity assessment (using zebra fish model,Danio rerio), suggested those polymeric materials as suitable for biomedical application.

AB  - New (beta-aminoester) hydrogels (PBAE) based on di(ethylene glycol)diacrylate and glycine are successfully synthesized and characterized for the first time in this work. PBAE macromers are obtained using Michael addition. By changing the diacrylate/amine stoichiometric ratio, but maintaining it  gt 1, samples with different chemical structure containing acrylate end-groups are obtained. The hydrogels are synthesized from macromers utilizing free radical polymerization. Chemical structure of macromers and hydrogels is confirmed by proton nuclear magnetic resonance, and Fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy. Swelling and degradation rates in physiological pH range change notably with pH and monomer molar ratio, validating pH sensitivity and zwitterionic behavior, which can be finely tuned by changing any of these parameters. In vitro cytotoxicity and in vivo acute embryotoxicity in zebrafish (Danio rerio) performed to assess the biocompatibility of the novel hydrogel materials and their degradation products reveal that materials are nontoxic and biocompatible. The Cephalexin in vitro drug release study, at pH values 2.20, 5.50, and 7.40, demonstrates pH-sensitive delivery with the release profiles effectively controlled by pH and the hydrogel composition. PBAE hydrogels exhibit great potential for a variety of biomedical applications, including tissue regeneration and intelligent drug delivery systems.
