Problems solved by technology

The synthesis of small molecules is relatively easy, but due to the artificial design of its structure and the use of secondary bond forces to form gels, it is difficult to degrade the gel and the strength of the formed gel is limited.
Polymer gels have the characteristics of simple preparation, easy structure control, and considerable strength, but it is difficult to achieve biodegradation; at the same time, it is difficult to achieve the regulation of specific cell functions
Currently used polymer materials such as chitin, sodium alginate, collagen or chemically modified synthetic polymers such as polyethylene glycol, etc., these polymer materials have good support, but the chemical residues in the synthesis , free radical initiators, ultraviolet rays and other issues limit its wide application

Embodiment 1

[0042] The preparation method of the present embodiment hydrogel comprises the following steps:

[0043] Peptide Ac-I 3 SLKGQ-NH 2 Under the action of the buffer solution Hepes buffer solution, dilute to a concentration of 8mM, vortex and sonicate, heat in a water bath at 85°C and cool to room temperature, add transglutaminase (TGase) to make the final concentration of TGase The concentration was 0.9U / mL, and incubated at 37°C. After 24 hours and 15 days, hydrogels were able to form. Rheologically tested, such as Figure 4 As shown, Ac-I 3 SLKGQ-NH 2 The storage modulus G' of the polypeptide hydrogel is about 800 Pa, and the loss modulus G" is about 1 / 10 of the storage modulus G', indicating that the system forms a typical hydrogel.

[0044] Hydrogel degradation test: at 37°C, matrix metalloproteinase II (MMP-2) was added to the self-assembled hydrogel to make the final concentration 100ng / mL, and the gel was placed in a 37°C water bath After incubation for 15 days, the...

[0046] Ac-I 3 SLKGQ-NH 2 Gel preparation method:

[0047] Select the short peptide Ac-I prepared by the aforementioned solid-phase synthesis method 3 SLKGQ-NH 2Under the action of Hepes buffer, dilute to a concentration of 8mM, after oscillating and sonicating, heat in a water bath at 85°C for 2 hours, cool naturally to room temperature, add 5mM CaCl dissolved in Hepes buffer 2 and 2mM dithiothreitol (DTT) transglutaminase, so that the final concentration of the enzyme is 0.9U / mL, and the final concentration of the short peptide is 7.27mM. The resulting solution was incubated in a water bath at 37°C for 24 hours to obtain an inverted self-supporting hydrogel.

[0048] The gel in embodiment 2 is assayed:

[0049] Pipette 20 μL of Ac-I 3 SLKGQ-NH 2 The gel was added dropwise on the cleaned silicon wafer, and then 300 μL of ultrapure water was added quickly, and after standing for 10 seconds for adsorption, the sample was blown dry with nitrogen gas, and scanned by AFM. It...

[0052] Characterization of Ac-I by Haake rheometer 3 SLKGQ-NH 2 For the mechanical properties (viscoelasticity) of hydrogel samples, a cone-plate with a diameter of 35mm and a taper of 2° was used as the rotor, and a flat plate with a diameter of 35mm was used as the stator. The sample volume used for each measurement was 400 μL, and the experimental temperature was constant at 25°C. Stress scanning is carried out at a frequency of 1Hz, and the scanning range is from 0.01% to 100%. The linear viscoelastic region of the gel is measured, and the appropriate stress is selected from the linear viscoelastic region for dynamic frequency scanning, and the scanning range is from 0.01Hz to 100Hz. The relationship between the energy modulus G' and the energy loss modulus G".

[0053] Ac-I 3 SLKGQ-NH 2 Dilute to a concentration of 8mM under the action of Hepes buffer, add transglutaminase according to the method of Example 2, and place it in a water bath at 37°C for 24 hours, then tak...

Abstract

The invention provides a polypeptide for preparing hydrogel. The amino acid sequence of the polypeptide is SEQ ID NO: 1. The polypeptide is used for preparing the hydrogel. The prepared hydrogel can be used for producing cell culture holders. The polypeptide has the advantages that enzymes of organisms are catalyzed under physiological conditions to form the hydrogel, and accordingly, damage of external chemical agents, ultraviolet light and the like to tissues is avoided; the biological enzymes can be degraded, the hydrogel is degraded by endogenous substances in the organisms, and accordingly, potential toxicity and immunogenicity risks caused by introduction of exogenous chemical agents are avoided; the polypeptide is an ideal tissue engineering material and is significant to human life health.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of preparation of hydrogel, in particular to a polypeptide for preparing hydrogel and the prepared hydrogel. Background technique [0002] The preparation of hydrogels in the prior art can be divided into two categories: macromolecular crosslinking and small molecule self-assembly. The synthesis of small molecules is relatively easy, but because its structure is artificially designed and the use of secondary bond forces to form the gel makes it difficult to degrade the gel and the strength of the formed gel is limited. Polymer gels have the characteristics of simple preparation, easy structure control, and considerable strength, but it is difficult to achieve biodegradation; at the same time, it is difficult to achieve the regulation of specific cell functions. Currently used polymer materials such as chitin, sodium alginate, collagen or chemically modified synthetic polymers such as polyethylene glycol, et...
