Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the most common pathogens encountered in clinical wound infections. Clinical studies have shown that P. aeruginosa infection results in a larger wound area, inhibiting healing, and a high prevalence of antimicrobial resistance. Hydroxypyridinone-derived iron chelator Deferiprone (Def) and heme analogue Gallium-Protoporphyrin (GaPP) in a chitosan-dextran hydrogel (Chitogel) have previously been demonstrated to be effective against PAO1 and clinical isolates of P. aeruginosa in vitro. Moreover, this combination of these two agents has been shown to improve sinus surgery outcomes by quickly reducing bleeding and preventing adhesions. In this study, the efficacy of Def-GaPP Chitogel was investigated in a P. aeruginosa biofilm-infected wound murine model over 6 days. Two concentrations of Def-GaPP Chitogel were investigated: Def-GaPP high dose (10 mM Def + 500 µg/mL GaPP) and Def-GaPP low dose (5 mM Def + 200 µg/mL GaPP). The high-dose Def-GaPP treatment reduced bacterial burden in vivo from day 2, without delaying wound closure. Additionally, Def-GaPP treatment decreased wound inflammation, as demonstrated by reduced neutrophil infiltration and increased anti-inflammatory M2 macrophage presence within the wound bed to drive wound healing progression. Def-GaPP Chitogel treatment shows promising potential in reducing P. aeruginosa cutaneous infection with positive effects observed in the progression of wound healing. |
