Problems solved by technology

[0006] At present, chitosan and its derivatives as insoluble drug carriers have the following problems: (1) hydrophilic chitosan nanospheres cannot directly load insoluble drugs. The present invention adopts O / W / O double emulsion The loading of insoluble drugs can be achieved by using the method, and the nanospheres loaded with insoluble drugs can be prepared by further curing the double emulsion
The stability of complex emulsions, especially nano-complex emulsion droplets, is a great challenge during the preparation process.
(2) Insoluble drugs such as paclitaxel are usually easy to devitrify to form large crystal particles during the preparation process and destroy the emulsion, resulting in drug leakage or even embedding failure
(3) Pure chitosan nanospheres have a solid structure, and it is difficult for the release liquid to enter the nanospheres, resulting in a slow release rate of the drug
(4) Most of the nanospheres prepared by chitosan adopt the chemical crosslinking method. After chemical crosslinking and curing, the functional group amino groups on the surface of chitosan nanospheres are occupied during crosslinking, and cannot be further connected to PEG chains or grafted targets. To the molecule
(5) The preparation method is very limited, and the mechanical stirring method is mainly used. When using this method to prepare the emulsion, due to the uneven particle size, the small milk droplet will be absorbed by the large milk droplet, and the large milk droplet will be absorbed by the large milk droplet due to shearing. Destroyed by the effect of shear force, which leads to the very uneven particle size of the prepared chitosan nanospheres
At the same time, in the process of merging and breaking up of droplets, the internal drug can easily escape to the outside of the droplet, resulting in a decrease in the embedding rate of the drug.
The inhomogeneous particle size of nanospheres will also bring many difficulties to the practical application of chitosan and its derivative nanospheres.
(6) Most nanospheres will be recognized and cleared by the reticuloendothelial system after intravenous injection, so that the drug cannot reach the therapeutic concentration
(7) Due to the lack of targeting, the simple nanosphere carrier brings irreversible toxic and side effects to normal body tissues

Abstract

The invention relates to a chitosan-carboxylated chitosan nanosphere loading an insoluble antitumor drug. The nanosphere has a porous and aperture-controlled structure which controls rapid and stable release of the drug. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) chains and tumor-targeting specific molecules are coupled on the surface of the nanosphere, so as to effectively increase the cycle period of the drug in vivo, improve the affinity of the nanosphere to tumor cells and improve the bioavailability of the drug. Besides, the nanosphere has less toxic side effects and better antitumor effects. The invention also provides a method for preparing the chitosan-carboxylated chitosan nanosphere loading or combining the insoluble antitumor drug. The amino groups of chitosan/carboxylated chitosan are cross-linked to form a sphere, and the carboxyl groups of carboxylated chitosan are coupled with the PEG chains and then grafted with the targeting molecules, so that the drug is uniformly dispersed in the form of in-situ crystallization in chitosan and its derivative nanosphere, as a result, the drug-loading rate is greatly increased and the release rate of the drug is stabilized.
