Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to an artificial meniscus and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the field of biocomposite materials. Background Art

[0002] Meniscus is a crescent-shaped fibrocartilage tissue composed of water, extracellular matrix and meniscus cells. Meniscus exists in the joints of the knee, wrist and jaw. The knee meniscus is located between the femur and the tibial plateau and plays an important role. It is subjected to various loads in daily life and sports activities, such as compression, rotation, stretching, shearing, etc. The functions of the meniscus mainly include: bearing weight, improving the adaptability of the tibiofemoral joint, maintaining the stability of the knee joint, buffering stress and shock, lubricating the joint, and increasing the contact area of ​​the joint. When the meniscus is bruised, the normal function of the knee joint will be greatly attenuated, the knee joint will be seriously burdened, especially during intense sports activities, and the meniscus cannot be regenerated. Therefore, it is urgent to develop an artificial meniscus substitute to provide the corresponding functions of the removed natural meniscus, thereby slowing down or even avoiding the wear of the articular cartilage.

[0003] The ideal meniscus substitute should have similar geometric features to the natural meniscus, anisotropic mechanical properties, excellent biocompatibility and long-term stability in vivo. To this end, researchers have developed various types of meniscus substitutes, including polytetrafluoroethylene, polyester, porous polyurethane, polyvinyl alcohol hydrogel, polycarbonate polyurethane, etc. However, the above meniscus substitutes all have some shortcomings, such as: polytetrafluoroethylene materials have low strength and poor wear resistance, and are prone to deformation and wear after implantation, resulting in the deposition of fragments in the joint cavity and the formation of synovitis, damaging the articular cartilage; polyester also has synovitis and articular cartilage wear; porous polyurethane also has the problem of damaging the articular cartilage; polyvinyl alcohol hydrogel has poor mechanical properties; polycarbonate polyurethane has a large friction coefficient and damages the cartilage tissue, etc.

[0004] Therefore, considering the above scientific research status and the urgent need for artificial meniscus, it is of great significance to develop an artificial meniscus material with high mechanical properties, low wear and high biocompatibility. Summary of the invention

[0027] The idea is to achieve this by taking the main physical properties of the natural meniscus (tensile strength 13.25MPa, friction coefficient 0.14, relative cell survival rate 100%) as the target, using polyurethane as the main material, and improving the mechanical properties of the material and the problem of cartilage contusion through chemical modification and physical structure design. First, the overall structure is designed, with modified polyurethane as the matrix material; and a "mesh cover" is designed for this matrix material, and then the matrix material and the "mesh cover" are formed into a whole to solve the problem of insufficient mechanical properties; at the same time, the matrix material and the "mesh cover" are chemically modified to solve the problems of poor mechanical properties and cartilage contusion; in addition, for cartilage contusion, on the one hand, the friction coefficient is reduced; on the other hand, it is solved by promoting cartilage proliferation compensation.

At the same time, the polyurethane structure prepared by this method has better mechanical properties; it is blended with amino-containing biomacromolecules to improve its hydrophilicity, which is beneficial to biocompatibility; the external "mesh cover" is specifically: prepared by copolymerization of polyamide and polyurethane, which not only improves the compatibility with the matrix but also provides the mechanical strength of the fiber structure; and is blended with polyamide / zwitterionic copolymer to enhance water solubility; in addition, the structure of zwitterionic can re-form new ions with calcium bromide ions, which has the effect of promoting cartilage proliferation. The two materials are "integrated" according to the structural design, placed in aldehyde solution for cross-linking to form a whole, and placed in calcium bromide solution to form new functions.

[0049] The reaction process adopted for the S23 polycondensation reaction depends on the end-capping groups in S21 and S22: if S21 is a carboxyl end-capping structure and S22 is an amino end-capping structure, the polycondensation reaction of S23 is the same as S21, which is a polyamide synthesis process step; conversely, if S21 is an amino end-capping structure and S22 is an intermediate product 1I end-capping structure; then the polycondensation reaction of S23 is the same as S22, which is a polyurethane synthesis process step.

[0058] The embodiment of the present invention also provides a method for preparing an artificial meniscus, comprising: S31, preparing a mold for making a disc-shaped artificial meniscus.

[0059] S32, disposing a functional fiber fabric inside the mold.

[0060] S33, adding the modified polyurethane-based material solution into the mold, removing bubbles, and letting it stand to obtain a molded object I.

[0061] Wherein, the outer end of the artificial meniscus is connected to the functional fiber fabric; The modified polyurethane-based material solution described in the following examples of the present invention is prepared by mixing the modified polyurethane-based material with N,N-dimethylformamide E in a dosage ratio of 10 g:100 mL.

[0062] S34, placing the formed product I in a glutaraldehyde solution for 5-10 hours to obtain a formed product II.

[0067] The solutions described in the following examples of the present invention, unless otherwise specified, are all made of water.

[0068] The artificial meniscus of the present invention uses a self-made modified polyurethane material as a matrix material and a functional fiber fabric as an external "binding" material. After being impregnated with glutaraldehyde, the amino-containing biomacromolecules in the matrix material and the hanging amino groups of the external "binding" material can undergo an aldehyde-amine condensation reaction, so that the external "binding" material firmly wraps the matrix material to form an integrated material; at the same time, after being impregnated with a calcium bromide solution, bromide ions, calcium ions and ammonium ions and phosphate ions in zwitterions act due to electrostatic force and ring tension, and the ion radius of bromide ions and calcium ions is smaller than that of atomic clusters such as ammonium ions and phosphate ions. Finally, bromide ions are more likely to combine with positive and negative ions of ammonium ions, and calcium ions are combined with phosphate ions, thereby improving the sustained release effect of bromide ions, promoting the proliferation and differentiation of chondrocytes, compensating for worn cartilage, and improving the service life.
