“…[ 34 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 ]. Similarly, the same dependencies occur with different nanoparticle coatings [ 41 , 42 , 43 ]. Coatings of cerium nanoparticles with various substances, most often of plant origin, are a necessity because they prevent the aggregation of nanocrystals, which leads to a significant decrease in the total area of crystals, which comes into direct contact with the environment.…”

Purpose of the study: the creation of a dextran coating on cerium oxide crystals using different ratios of cerium and dextran to synthesize nanocomposites, and the selection of the best nanocomposite to develop a nanodrug that accelerates quality wound healing with a new type of antimicrobial effect. Materials and methods: Nanocomposites were synthesized using cerium nitrate and dextran polysaccharide (6000 Da) at four different initial ratios of Ce(NO3)3x6H2O to dextran (by weight)—1:0.5 (Ce0.5D); 1:1 (Ce1D); 1:2 (Ce2D); and 1:3 (Ce3D). A series of physicochemical experiments were performed to characterize the created nanocomposites: UV-spectroscopy; X-ray phase analysis; transmission electron microscopy; dynamic light scattering and IR-spectroscopy. The biomedical effects of nanocomposites were studied on human fibroblast cell culture with an evaluation of their effect on the metabolic and proliferative activity of cells using an MTT test and direct cell counting. Antimicrobial activity was studied by mass spectrometry using gas chromatography–mass spectrometry against E. coli after 24 h and 48 h of co-incubation. Results: According to the physicochemical studies, nanocrystals less than 5 nm in size with diffraction peaks characteristic of cerium dioxide were identified in all synthesized nanocomposites. With increasing polysaccharide concentration, the particle size of cerium dioxide decreased, and the smallest nanoparticles (<2 nm) were in Ce2D and Ce3D composites. The results of cell experiments showed a high level of safety of dextran nanoceria, while the absence of cytotoxicity (100% cell survival rate) was established for Ce2D and C3D sols. At a nanoceria concentration of 10−2 M, the proliferative activity of fibroblasts was statistically significantly enhanced only when co-cultured with Ce2D, but decreased with Ce3D. The metabolic activity of fibroblasts after 72 h of co-cultivation with nano composites increased with increasing dextran concentration, and the highest level was registered in Ce3D; from the dextran group, differences were registered in Ce2D and Ce3D sols. As a result of the microbiological study, the best antimicrobial activity (bacteriostatic effect) was found for Ce0.5D and Ce2D, which significantly inhibited the multiplication of E. coli after 24 h by an average of 22–27%, and after 48 h, all nanocomposites suppressed the multiplication of E. coli by 58–77%, which was the most pronounced for Ce0.5D, Ce1D, and Ce2D. Conclusions: The necessary physical characteristics of nanoceria–dextran nanocomposites that provide the best wound healing biological effects were determined. Ce2D at a concentration of 10−3 M, which stimulates cell proliferation and metabolism up to 2.5 times and allows a reduction in the rate of microorganism multiplication by three to four times, was selected for subsequent nanodrug creation.

Background/Objectives: The issue of effective wound healing remains highly relevant. The objective of the study is to develop an optimal method for the synthesis of nanosized cerium oxide powder obtained via the thermal decomposition of cerium carbonate precipitated from aqueous nitrate solution for the technical creation of new drugs in production conditions; the select modification of synthesis under different conditions based on the evaluation of the physicochemical characteristics of the obtained material and its biological activity, and an evaluation of the broad-spectrum effect on cells involved in the regeneration of skin structure as well as antimicrobial properties. Methods: Several modes of the industrial synthesis of cerium dioxide nanoparticles (NPs) were carried out. The synthesis stages and the chemical and physical parameters of the obtained NPs were described using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and mass spectrometry. The cell cultures of human fibroblasts and keratinocytes were cultured with different concentrations of different nanoceria variations, and the cytotoxicity and the metabolic and proliferative activity were investigated. An MTT test and cell counting were performed. The antimicrobial activity of CeO2 variations at a concentration of 0.1–0.0001 M against Pseudomonas aeruginosa was studied. Results: The purity of the synthesized nanoceria powders in all the batches was >99.99%. According to TEM data, the size of the NPs varied from 1 nm to 70 nm under different conditions and methodologies. The most optimal technology for the synthesis of the nanoceria with the maximum biological effect was selected. A method for obtaining the most bioactive NPs of optimal size (up to 10 nm) was proposed. The repeatability of the results of the proposed method of nanoceria synthesis in terms of particle size was confirmed. It was proven that the more structural defects on the surface of the CeO2 crystal lattice, the higher the efficiency of the NPs due to oxygen vacancies. The strain provided the best redox activity and antioxidant properties of the nanoceria, which was demonstrated by better regenerative potential on various cell lines. The beneficial effect of synthesized nanoceria on the proliferative and metabolic activity of the cell lines involved in skin regeneration (human fibroblasts, human keratinocytes) was demonstrated. The antimicrobial effect of synthesized nanoceria on the culture of the most-resistant-to-modern-antibiotics microorganism Pseudomonas aeruginosa was confirmed. The optimal concentrations of the nanoceria to achieve the maximum biological effect were determined (10−3 M). Conclusions: It was possible to develop a method for the industrial synthesis of nanoceria, which can be used to produce drugs and medical devices containing CeO2 NPs.

Background/Objectives: The aim was to study the possibilities of biomedical application of gadolinium oxide nanoparticles (Gd2O3 NPs) synthesized under industrial conditions, and evaluate their physicochemical properties, redox activity, biological activity, and safety using different human cell lines. Methods: The powder of Gd2O3 NPs was obtained by a process of thermal decomposition of gadolinium carbonate precipitated from nitrate solution, and was studied using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy dispersive X-ray analyzer (EDX). The redox activity of different concentrations of Gd2O3 NPs was studied by the optical spectroscopy (OS) method in the photochemical degradation process of methylene blue dye upon irradiation with an optical source. Biological activity was studied on different human cell lines (keratinocytes, fibroblasts, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs)) with evaluation of the effect of a wide range of Gd2O3 NP concentrations on metabolic and proliferative cellular activity (MTT test, direct cell counting, dead cell assessment, and visual assessment of cytoarchitectonics). The test of migration activity assessment on a model wound was performed on MSC culture. Results: According to TEM data, the size of the NPs was in the range of 2–43 nm, with an average of 20 nm. XRD analysis revealed that the f Gd2O3 nanoparticles had a cubic structure (C-form) of Gd2O3 (Ia3)¯ with lattice parameter a = 10.79(9) Å. Raman spectroscopy showed that the f Gd2O3 nanoparticles had a high degree of crystallinity. By investigating the photooxidative degradation of methylene blue dye in the presence of f Gd2O3 NPs under red light irradiation, it was found that f Gd2O3 nanoparticles showed weak antioxidant activity, which depended on the particle content in the solution. At a concentration of 10−3 M, the highest antioxidant activity of f Gd2O3 nanoparticles was observed when the reaction rate constant of dye photodegradation decreased by 5.5% to 9.4 × 10−3 min−1. When the concentration of f Gd2O3 NPs in solution was increased to 10−2 M upon irradiation with a red light source, their antioxidant activity changed to pro-oxidant activity, accompanied by a 15% increase in the reaction rate of methylene blue degradation. Studies on cell lines showed a high level of safety and regenerative potential of Gd2O3 NPs, which stimulated fibroblast metabolism at a concentration of 10−3 M (27% enhancement), stimulated keratinocyte metabolism at concentrations of 10−3 M–10−5 M, and enhanced keratinocyte proliferation by an average of 35% at concentrations of 10−4 M. Furthermore, it accelerated the migration of MSCs, enhancing their proliferation, and promoting the healing of the model wound. Conclusions: The results of the study demonstrated the safety and regenerative potential of redox-active Gd2O3 NPs towards different cell lines. This may be the basis for further research to develop nanomaterials based on Gd2O3 NPs for skin wound healing and in regenerative medicine generally.
