Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of nano drug delivery, and in particular relates to a stem cell membrane-modified liposome nano drug delivery particle and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Breast cancer treatment has undergone a profound transformation from single surgery to comprehensive treatment, encompassing multiple approaches including surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, endocrine therapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy. However, traditional chemotherapy drugs often face challenges such as poor water solubility, significant side effects, and poor targeting, which compromise therapeutic efficacy and patients' quality of life. In recent years, with the rapid development of nanoscience and technology, nanodrug delivery technology has been widely used in the development and treatment of breast cancer drugs. Although traditional nanoparticles, such as liposomes, can improve drug bioavailability and targeting, they still face numerous challenges in crossing biological barriers, evading immune surveillance, and achieving precise delivery. Furthermore, the toxicity and safety of nanodrug delivery systems require thorough research and evaluation.
[0003] Stem cell membranes are rich in a variety of functional proteins and carbohydrate molecules, which play an important role in cell recognition, signal transduction, and immune evasion. In recent years, stem cell membranes have been combined with nanoparticle drug delivery systems to create nanoparticles with stem cell membrane properties. These particles can mimic stem cell behaviors, such as targeted migration, immune evasion, and intercellular interactions, providing new insights into breast cancer treatment.
[0004] While the research and development of stem cell membrane-inspired nano-drug delivery systems has shown tremendous potential, their development remains in its early stages, facing a series of complex technical challenges, including material stability, biosafety, drug targeting, and optimizing the performance of the nanomaterials themselves. Therefore, we urgently need to develop novel stem cell membrane-modified nano-drug delivery systems, continuously explore nano-drug delivery systems that are compatible with stem cell membranes, and conduct thorough toxicity and safety assessments to achieve efficient and safe drug delivery in vivo. Summary of the Invention

[0011] The core layer and the membrane layer constitute the stem cell membrane-coated liposome nanoparticles, and the amount of the chitosan derivative is 400-600wt% of the stem cell membrane-coated liposome nanoparticles. The object of the present invention is to develop a stem cell membrane-modified liposome nanoparticle loaded with dual drugs to solve the problems existing in the clinical application of the existing nano drug delivery system.

[0104] Test example:
[0105] The present invention performs morphological characterization on the liposome nanoparticles and stem cell membrane-coated liposome nanoparticles prepared in the examples. Taking the dual-drug-loaded liposome nanoparticles prepared in Example 3 and the stem cell membrane-coated liposome nanoparticles prepared in Example 6 as examples, the morphological characterization results are shown in FIG. Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 a is the morphology of dual-drug-loaded liposome nanoparticles, which are spherical in structure and about 100 nm in size; Figure 1 b is the morphology of stem cell membrane-coated liposome nanoparticles. Its overall shape and structure have not changed significantly, and the boundaries of the membrane coating can be clearly observed, which indicates that the stem cell membrane-coated liposome nanoparticles have been successfully synthesized.
[0106] The present invention conducted a stability test on the liposome nanoparticles and stem cell membrane-coated liposome nanoparticles prepared in the examples. The dual-drug-loaded liposome nanoparticles prepared in Example 3, the single-drug-loaded liposome nanoparticles prepared in Example 1, the stem cell membrane-coated liposome nanoparticles prepared in Example 6, and the chitosan-based coated liposome nanoparticles prepared in Example 9 were tested for particle size in PBS solution for 18 days.

As time goes by, the particle size of the liposome nanoparticles not coated by the stem cell membrane increases significantly. However, the stem cell membrane-coated liposome nanoparticles and the chitosan-coated liposome nanoparticles showed relatively stable particle size information during the test, and the chitosan-coated liposome nanoparticles modified with carboxymethyl chitosan showed the best stability, indicating that carboxymethyl chitosan can further enhance the environmental stability of the stem cell membrane.
[0107] The present invention conducted an in vitro drug release test on the chitosan-coated liposome nanoparticles prepared in Example 9, simulating a tumor microenvironment with a pH of 6.8 and a normal cell environment with a pH of 7.4. The results are as follows: Figure 3As shown in the figure, the drug is continuously released as time goes by, and the chitosan-coated liposome nanoparticles release the drug faster and in a larger amount in a pH = 6.8 environment than in a pH = 7.4 environment, which indicates that the stem cell membrane-modified liposome nanoparticles of the present invention are very suitable for application in an acidic tumor microenvironment.
[0108] The present invention performs a targeting test on the single drug-loaded liposome nanoparticles prepared in Example 3 and the stem cell membrane-coated liposome nanoparticles prepared in Example 6. The samples are respectively selected and co-incubated with breast cancer cells 4T1 and normal breast cells EMT6. MSCm-lipo-nab-PTX-DXR is the stem cell membrane-coated liposome nanoparticles of Example 6, and lipo-nab-PTX-DXR is the single drug-loaded liposome nanoparticles of Example 3. MSCm-lipo-nab-PTX-DXR+4T1 cells and control groups lipo-nab-PTX-DXR+4T1 cells and MSCm-lipo-nab-PTX-DXR+EMT6 cells are selected and loaded with fluorescein FITC. The specific test method is as follows: 4T1 and EMT6 were inoculated in a confocal cell culture dish, cultured with DMEM containing 10% fetal bovine serum for 24 hours, and then the culture medium was discarded. 100 μL of FITC-MSCm-lipo-nab-PTX-DXR, FITC-lipo-nab-PTX-DXR, and FITC-MSCm-lipo-nab-PTX-DXR were taken and mixed evenly with 900 μL of culture medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum, totaling 1 mL, and the final concentration of the nanoparticles was 1 mg / mL, and incubated with 4T1 and EMT6 for 4 hours. The incubation solution was discarded, washed 3 times with PBS solution, and then the breast cancer cells 4T1 were co-incubated with the above samples using confocal microscopy, and observed and imaged using CLSM. The experimental results are as follows. Figure 4 As shown in the data, FITC-MSCm-lipo-nab-PTX-DXR+4T1 cells showed stronger fluorescence intensity than FITC-lipo-nab-PTX-DXR+4T1 cells and FITC-MSCm-lipo-nab-PTX-DXR+EMT6 cells, indicating that stem cells coated with liposome nanoparticles have the best targeting effect on breast cancer cells and will not cause excessive interference to normal cells, which will be beneficial for subsequent treatment.
[0109] The present invention conducted immune escape tests on the dual-drug-loaded liposome nanoparticles prepared in Example 3, the stem cell membrane-coated liposome nanoparticles prepared in Example 6, and the chitosan-coated liposome nanoparticles prepared in Example 9. Macrophages were inoculated in a confocal cell culture dish and cultured for 24 hours. The culture medium was discarded and the three samples were mixed with culture medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum at a volume ratio of 1:9. The samples were incubated with macrophages for 4 hours, washed with PBS, and then confocal imaging was performed. The results are shown in Figure 2. Figure 5 As shown, lipo-nab-PTX-DXR is the dual-drug-loaded liposome nanoparticles of Example 3, MSCm-lipo-nab-PTX-DXR is the stem cell membrane-coated liposome nanoparticles of Example 6, and CMCTS@MSCm-lipo-nab-PTX-DX is the chitosan-based coated liposome nanoparticles of Example 9. Compared with the stem cell membrane-coated liposome nanoparticles and the chitosan-based coated liposome nanoparticles, the dual-drug-loaded liposome nanoparticles that are not coated with the stem cell membrane show the characteristics of being taken up in large quantities by macrophages, which shows that the stem cell membrane-coated liposome nanoparticles have higher immunocompatibility. In addition, it was found that the chitosan-based coated liposome nanoparticles modified with carboxymethyl chitosan are less likely to be taken up by macrophages than the stem cell membrane-coated liposome nanoparticles, which also indirectly illustrates the protective effect of carboxymethyl chitosan on the stem cell membrane and its potential immune-promoting ability.
[0110] The chitosan-coated liposome nanoparticles prepared in Examples 9, 12, 15 and Comparative Examples 1-4 were subjected to immune escape testing according to the above method, wherein the samples were mixed evenly with a culture medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum at a volume ratio of 1:10, incubated with macrophages for 4 hours, washed with PBS, and then subjected to confocal imaging. The test results are shown in FIG. Figure 6As shown in the figure, after the core layer is coated with the stem cell membrane, the immune escape ability of the obtained stem cell membrane-coated liposome nanoparticles is improved, and the immune escape ability comes from the effect of the stem cell membrane. In order to further improve the immune escape ability, the present invention adds a chitosan derivative for coating treatment. Among them, the single use of carboxymethyl chitosan can further improve the immune escape ability of the chitosan-coated liposome nanoparticles. If carboxymethyl chitosan is replaced by chitosan, chitosan can hardly improve the immune escape ability of the obtained chitosan-coated liposome nanoparticles. If Replacing carboxymethyl chitosan with chitosan amino acid derivatives or chitosan polyenamino derivatives prepared in the present invention in one step also barely improves the immune escape ability of the resulting chitosan-coated liposome nanoparticles. The chitosan amino acid derivatives in the present invention are prepared by reacting chitosan with S-lactylglutathione, and the chitosan polyenamino derivatives in the present invention are prepared by reacting chitosan with N-methylacryloylglycine. The present invention has found that the immune escape ability of the resulting chitosan-coated liposome nanoparticles can be enhanced when carboxymethyl chitosan, chitosan amino acid derivatives, or chitosan polyenamino derivatives are used together. When carboxymethyl chitosan, chitosan amino acid derivatives, or chitosan polyenamino derivatives are used, the present invention has found that if polyethylene glycol glutarate is further added, the outer layer formed by the combined use of carboxymethyl chitosan, chitosan amino acid derivatives, chitosan polyenamino derivatives, or polyethylene glycol glutarate has better immune escape ability.
[0111] The present invention conducted cell safety tests on the dual-drug-loaded liposome nanoparticles prepared in Example 3, the stem cell membrane-coated liposome nanoparticles prepared in Example 6, and the chitosan-coated liposome nanoparticles prepared in Examples 7-9, and evaluated the killing effect of the nanoparticles of the present invention on breast cancer 4T1 cells and the biosafety on normal breast EMT6 cells based on the CCK8 method. The above-mentioned test samples were selected, the specific culture time was set to 24 h, the sample concentration was set to 10 μg / mL, and after incubation for 3 h, the optical density (OD) value of each well was measured at 450 nm on a microplate reader and the cell survival rate was calculated. The experimental results are as follows: Figure 7As shown, lipo-nab-PTX-DXR is the dual-drug-loaded liposome nanoparticles of Example 3, MSCm-lipo-nab-PTX-DXR is the stem cell membrane-coated liposome nanoparticles of Example 6, CMCTS@MSCm-lipo-nab-PTX is the chitosan-based coated liposome nanoparticles of Example 7, CMCTS@MSCm-lipo-DXR is the chitosan-based coated liposome nanoparticles of Example 8, and CMCTS@MSCm-lipo-nab-PTX-DX is the chitosan-based coated liposome nanoparticles of Example 9. On the one hand, the above samples generally have a significant inhibitory effect on breast cancer 4T1 cells, among which the chitosan-based coated liposome nanoparticles of Example 9 show a better proliferation inhibition rate than the two samples loaded with a single drug in the same system, which can be attributed to the synergistic effect between the two drugs. In addition, the chitosan-based coated liposome nanoparticles of Example 9 had a similar inhibitory effect on 4T1 cells as the dual-drug-loaded liposome nanoparticles of Example 3 and the stem cell membrane-coated liposome nanoparticles of Example 6, indicating that the coating with the stem cell membrane and the modification with carboxymethyl chitosan did not hinder the killing of breast cancer cells. On the other hand, the above samples generally had good biocompatibility with normal breast EMT6 cells, among which the chitosan-based coated liposome nanoparticles prepared in Examples 7-9 had similar cell activity; however, compared with the dual-drug-loaded liposome nanoparticles of Example 3 and the stem cell membrane-coated liposome nanoparticles of Example 6, the chitosan-based coated liposome nanoparticles of Example 9 showed an effect that was nearly 20% better than the above samples, which can be attributed to the coating of the liposomes with the stem cell membrane and the modification of the stem cell membrane with carboxymethyl chitosan, which further illustrates the protective effect of carboxymethyl chitosan on the stem cell membrane.
[0112] The present invention conducted a biosafety test on the chitosan-coated liposome nanoparticles prepared in Examples 9, 12, and 15. Normal breast EMT6 cells were used. The cell survival rate of breast EMT6 cells in the chitosan-coated liposome nanoparticles in Examples 12 and 15 was not much different from that in Example 9, indicating that the chitosan-coated liposome nanoparticles in Examples 12 and 15 of the present invention also have excellent biosafety.
