    Abstract In this editorial trend, we aim to collect and present recently available data about the characteristics of SARS-CoV-2 virus, severity, infection, replication, diagnosis, and current medications. In addition, we propose the role of nanomaterials in controlling and treating COVID-19 through their antiviral and antibacterial potential with suggested action mechanisms indicating the capability of interaction between these nanomaterials and SARS-CoV-2. These nanomaterials might be among the possible and most effective cures against coronavirus.

    Abstract Wound healing is a multifaceted biological process requiring innovative strategies to enhance efficiency and counter infections. In this groundbreaking study, we investigate the regenerative potential of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) integrated into a gelatin (GLT) scaffold along with nanocomposites of titanium dioxide (TiO2) (P25)/single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs)/Ag and P25/reduced graphene oxide (rGO)/Ag. Incorporating these advanced materials into the PRP/GLT delivery system aims to optimize the controlled release of growth factors (GFs) and leverage the exceptional properties of nanomaterials for enhanced tissue repair and wound healing outcomes. Antioxidant activity assessment using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity reveals the superior performance of P25/SWCNTs/Ag compared to P25/rGO/Ag. Their synergistic effects are evaluated in conjunction with antibacterial and antifungal antibiotics. Furthermore, the wound healing potential of P25/SWCNTs/Ag and P25/rGO/Ag, combined with PRP/GLT, is examined. Notably, both nanocomposites exhibit promising synergistic effects with gentamicin and fluconazole against pathogenic strains. Significantly, the inclusion of non-activated PRP substantially augments the wound healing efficacy of P25/SWCNTs/Ag on days 3 (p < 0.01) and 15 (p < 0.05). These findings pave the way for advanced wound dressing and therapeutic interventions, capitalizing on the synergistic effects of PRP and nanomaterials, thus ultimately benefiting patients and advancing regenerative medicine.

    Abstract The amniotic membrane (Amnio-M) has various applications in regenerative medicine. It acts as a highly biocompatible natural scaffold and as a source of several types of stem cells and potent growth factors. It also serves as an effective nano-reservoir for drug delivery, thanks to its high entrapment properties. Over the past century, the use of the Amnio-M in the clinic has evolved from a simple sheet for topical applications for skin and corneal repair into more advanced forms, such as micronized dehydrated membrane, amniotic cytokine extract, and solubilized powder injections to regenerate muscles, cartilage, and tendons. This review highlights the development of the Amnio-M over the years and the implication of new and emerging nanotechnology to support expanding its use for tissue engineering and clinical applications.

    Abstract Increasing environmental exposure to silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) and limited neurotoxicity studies pose a challenge for safety evaluation and management of these materials. This study aimed to explore the adverse effects and underlying mechanisms of subacute exposure to SiNPs by the intraperitoneal route on hippocampus function in rats. Data showed that SiNPs induced a significant increase in oxidative/nitrosative stress markers including reactive oxygen species (ROS), malondialdehyde (MDA), protein oxidation (PCO) and nitrite (NO) production accompanied by reduced antioxidant enzyme activity (catalase, superoxide dismutase, and glutathione peroxidase) and decreased glutathione (GSH). Phenotypically, SiNPs exhibited spatial learning and memory impairment in the Morris water maze (MWM) test, a decrease of the discrimination index in the novel object recognition test (NORT) and higher anxiety-like behavior. SiNPs affected the cholinergic system as reflected by reduced acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) activity. In addition, SiNPs significantly increased mRNA expression level of genes related to inflammation (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, and COX-2) and decreased mRNA expression level of genes related to cholinergic system including choline acetyltransferase (ChAT), vesicular acetylcholine transporter (VAChT), AChE, muscarinic acetylcholine receptor M1 (m1AChR) and nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR). Histopathological results further showed an alteration in the hippocampus of treated animals associated with marked vacuolation in different hippocampus areas. These findings provide new insights into the molecular mechanism of SiNPs-induced hippocampal alterations leading to impairment of cognitive and behavioral functions, and implicating oxidative stress and inflammation in the hippocampus, as well as disruption of cholinergic system.
