Controlled release of metal phenolic network protected phage for treating bacterial infection

Phage is a promising therapeutic agent for treating antibiotic resistant bacteria. However, in the process of treatment, phage may be cleared by the immune system and cleaved by protease, which could affect the efficacy of phage. In order to solve the above problems, phage encapsulation is usually adopted. In this study, we employed metal phenolic network (MPN) for efficient phage encapsulation which could protect phage from the cleavage of protease, and keep cytotoxicity weak. In the model of skin wound infection, the encapsulated phage could be released in response to pH change to achieve good antibacterial effect. Furthermore, the MPN encapsulation could prolong the T4 phage residence time at the wound. Our findings suggest that MPN can be a promising material for phage encapsulation.
