Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a glucose oxidase / simvastatin magnetic nanomotor, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] If tumor cells cannot obtain sufficient oxygen and nutrients to sustain their rapid growth, they will die due to lack of energy support; this process is known as "tumor starvation therapy." Since most tumor cells have a significantly faster metabolic rate than normal cells, and glucose is the primary energy source for tumor cell growth and metabolism, tumor cells are highly sensitive to changes in intracellular glucose concentration. Glucose deficiency can activate metabolism and related signaling pathways, leading to cell death. Due to the complexity, diversity, and heterogeneity of tumors, single glucose oxidase starvation therapy is unlikely to be an effective clinical treatment strategy. Therefore, multimodal synergistic therapies based on glucose oxidase will be an important research focus in the future.

[0003] Combining glucose oxidase with hypoxia-activated prodrugs can achieve synergistic therapeutic effects of tumor starvation therapy and hypoxia-activated therapy. Researchers have innovatively developed a new tumor treatment strategy by combining glucose oxidase-based starvation therapy with AQ4N-based hypoxia-activated therapy using liposome nanocarriers. Furthermore, glucose oxidase catalyzes the production of gluconic acid and hydrogen peroxide from glucose, showing potential applications in the synergistic treatment of tumor starvation and oxidation therapies. Researchers have reported a glucose-reactive nanodrug composed of glucose oxidase nanogels, which can regulate hydrogen peroxide production and can be used for starvation and oxidation therapy in melanoma. Photothermal therapy is a method of treating tumors by converting near-infrared light energy into heat energy using photothermal agents. Its therapeutic effect is not affected by the hypoxic tumor microenvironment; therefore, researchers have used photothermal agents as nanocarriers to deliver glucose oxidase to tumor tissue to improve therapeutic efficacy. Photodynamic therapy has attracted much attention due to its ability to directly irradiate tumor sites and its relatively low invasiveness. However, glucose oxidation mediated by glucose oxidase can increase hypoxia in tumor tissue, which is detrimental to photodynamic therapy. Therefore, some researchers have combined glucose oxidase and catalase. Catalase can promote the decomposition of endogenous hydrogen peroxide to produce oxygen, thereby promoting the decomposition of glucose by glucose oxidase and accelerating the production of cytotoxic reactive oxygen species under light conditions. The combination of the two has the ability to form a cascade biological reaction and can be used for synergistic treatment of starvation therapy and photodynamic therapy.

[0004] Currently, there is still a long way to go before glucose oxidase (GOx)-based cancer therapies can be truly applied clinically and solve existing challenges in tumor treatment. First, reducing the dosage of glucose oxidase, eliminating adverse reactions caused by high-dose nanomedicines, and exploring new treatment strategies are all issues that need to be addressed. Second, while glucose oxidase is inherently biocompatible and non-toxic, and several studies have demonstrated the biosafety of currently used glucose oxidase nanomedicines, it is still a protein and therefore has several drawbacks, such as poor stability and a short half-life in vivo. Furthermore, simvastatin, a commonly used lipid-lowering drug, has been shown to have some anti-tumor potential, but the exact mechanism is still unclear, and its use alone is unlikely to achieve ideal anti-tumor effects. Therefore, designing an appropriate carrier is crucial for achieving sustained delivery and precise control of glucose oxidase and simvastatin release, while also further enhancing the response to traditional anticancer therapies. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a glucose oxidase / simvastatin magnetic nanomotor, its preparation method, and its application. On the one hand, glucose oxidase is loaded onto magnetic nanoparticles through a condensation reaction, preserving the bioactivity of GOx. On the other hand, the magnetic nanomotor is driven in a magnetic field, and GOx provides driving force to the motor through catalytic reactions in the tumor microenvironment, promoting drug penetration into tumor tissue and enhancing drug targeting. Simultaneously, the loaded simvastatin can not only affect the lipid metabolism of tumor cells but also inhibit the uptake of glucose by tumor cells. This dual intervention of GOx and tumor cell energy metabolism significantly enhances the anti-tumor activity of GOx compared to glucose oxidase starvation therapy alone.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this invention to solve its technical problem is:

[0007] A method for preparing a glucose oxidase / simvastatin magnetic nanomotor includes the following steps:

[0008] 1) Add FeCl3·6H2O to deionized water and stir magnetically for 5-15 minutes. Then mix the suspension with sodium citrate, urea and PAM, and stir for another 20-40 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a Teflon autoclave and seal it. Keep it at 190-210℃ for 22-26 hours, and then let it cool naturally at room temperature. Wash it several times with deionized water and ethanol. After centrifugation, disperse the precipitate in deionized water to obtain a hollow mesoporous Fe3O4 nano solution.

[0009] 2) Add PAA solution and ammonia water to Fe3O4 nano solution respectively, and stir mechanically for 20-40 minutes; then slowly add isopropanol dropwise using a separatory funnel, and continue stirring for 20-40 minutes to obtain Fe3O4-PAA nano solution for the next step of the experiment;

[0011] 4) The lipid-soluble drug simvastatin was dissolved in an organic solvent to form a simvastatin solution, which was then mixed with the nanoparticle solution obtained in step 3). The mixture was stirred evenly in a metal bath, and the precipitate was collected after centrifugation to obtain Sim-loaded Fe3O4-PAA / mSiO2 nanoparticles.

[0012] 5) Resuspend the precipitate obtained in step 4) in buffer solution, add EDC and NHS solutions respectively, and stir for 20-40 minutes;

[0013] 6) Add glucose oxidase to deionized water and vortex to dissolve it to obtain an enzyme solution;

[0014] 7) Add the enzyme solution obtained in step 6) to the mixture in step 5), continue stirring for 3-5 hours, centrifuge, and resuspend the precipitate in deionized water to obtain glucose oxidase-simvastatin magnetic nanomotor.

[0015] Preferably, in step 1), the concentrations of FeCl3·6H2O, sodium citrate, and urea are 0.05M, 0.10M, and 0.15M, respectively; the centrifugation speed is 8000-10000 rpm, and the time is 10-20 minutes; magnetic separation can also be used.

[0016] Preferably, in step 2), the mass concentration of the Fe3O4 nanosolution is 0.5 mg / mL, and the volume ratio of isopropanol to nanoparticle suspension is 29:1.

[0017] Preferably, in step 3), the centrifugation speed is 8000-10000 rpm and the time is 10-20 minutes, or magnetic separation can also be used.

[0018] Preferably, the organic solvent mentioned in step 4) is one or a combination of two or more of acetonitrile, ethanol, methanol, acetone, and dimethyl sulfoxide; the mass ratio of simvastatin to nanoparticles is 1:4 to 1:5; the metal bath temperature is 37°C, the rotation speed is 800 to 1000 rpm, and the time is 2 to 12 hours; the centrifugation speed is 8000 to 10000 rpm, and the time is 10 to 20 minutes.

[0019] Preferably, the EDC and NHS concentrations in step 5) are 5 mg / mL, and the mass ratio to the nanoparticles is 1:1 to 1:1.5. Other carboxylic acid activators can also be used. The buffer solution is phosphate buffer or 2-morpholine ethanesulfonic acid buffer with a pH of 6.0 to 6.2. The metal bath temperature is 37°C, the rotation speed is 800 to 1000 rpm, and the time is 0.5 to 2 hours.

[0020] Preferably, in step 6), the concentration of the enzyme solution is 0.1–10 mg / mL.

[0021] Preferably, in step 7), the mass ratio of glucose oxidase to nanoparticles is 1:0.2 to 1:0.5; the metal bath temperature is 37°C, the rotation speed is 800 to 1000 rpm, and the time is 2 to 4 hours; the centrifugation speed is 8000 to 10000 rpm, and the time is 10 to 20 minutes.

[0022] Another technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a glucose oxidase / simvastatin magnetic nanomotor prepared by the method described in any of the above-mentioned methods, wherein the simvastatin loading rate in the glucose oxidase / simvastatin magnetic nanomotor is 15% to 25%, the glucose oxidase content is 20% to 35%, and the glucose oxidase / simvastatin magnetic nanomotor can reach a speed of 20 to 25 μm / s when the magnetic field frequency is 25 Hz.

[0023] Another technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a glucose oxidase / simvastatin magnetic nanomotor prepared by the method described in any of the above-mentioned methods, or the application of the above-mentioned glucose oxidase / simvastatin magnetic nanomotor in the preparation of a tumor treatment drug, wherein the tumor cells are 4T1 breast cancer cells.

[0024] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0025] The nanomotor prepared by this method has good driving force in a magnetic field. At a magnetic field frequency of 25 Hz, the speed can reach 20-25 μm / s and has good directionality. At the same time, glucose oxidase can provide driving force for the nanomotor through catalytic reaction in the tumor microenvironment, enhancing self-diffusion motion. This dual-driven nanomotor, as a carrier, can enhance its ability to target lesion sites and promote drug penetration in tumor tissue.

[0026] Ferric oxide nanoparticles with a hollow mesoporous structure can serve as carriers for the drug simvastatin. In addition to affecting the energy supply of tumor cells by reducing cholesterol production, simvastatin can also inhibit glucose uptake by tumor cells by blocking glucose transport and glucose metabolism. At the same time, simvastatin exerts anti-tumor effects by inhibiting tumor cell proliferation, promoting tumor cell apoptosis, and inhibiting tumor cell invasion and migration.

[0027] Glucose oxidase modified on the outer surface of nanocarriers can consume glucose in tumor tissue, further blocking the energy supply of tumor cells and exhibiting a highly efficient tumor-suppressing effect.

[0028] Through a relatively simple preparation process, a nanomotor with excellent targeting and multiple combined tumor treatment effects was obtained, minimizing the shortcomings of single treatment and ultimately achieving its highly efficient synergistic treatment of tumors.

[0059] Experimental Example 1

[0060] Self-driving behavior of an FPS-Sim-GOx magnetic nanomotor in a magnetic field:

[0061] The FPS-Sim-GOx magnetic nanomotor was resuspended in PBS buffer. A custom-designed five-coil magnetic field generator was used as the magnetocontrol system. The motor's motion was observed under an inverted fluorescence microscope at magnetic field frequencies of 1, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, and 60 Hz. The recorded motion video of the motor was analyzed using ImageJ and Chemotaxis software to track the motor's trajectory and calculate the mean square displacement (MSD).

[0062] Figure 3 The figure shows the motion trajectory of the FPS-Sim-GOx magnetic nanomotor under different magnetic field frequencies. This demonstrates that the FPS-Sim-GOx magnetic nanomotor exhibits different motion modes under the influence of magnetic fields of different frequencies, enabling it to achieve a certain degree of self-driven motion. Figure 4 The study further demonstrated the motion speed of the FPS-Sim-GOx magnetic nanomotor under different magnetic field frequencies. It can be seen that changes in magnetic field frequency significantly affect the motion speed of the nanomotor; as the frequency increases, the motor speed changes, providing a better basis for motion control. Figure 5 This demonstrates the mean square displacement (MSD) of the FPS-Sim-GOx magnetic nanomotor under different magnetic field frequencies. By analyzing the motion trajectory, the MSD variation of the nanomotor at different frequencies is obtained, further proving the influence of magnetic field frequency on the motor's motion characteristics.

[0063] Experimental Example 2

[0064] Enzymatic chemotaxis of an FPS-Sim-GOx magnetic nanomotor:

[0065] A three-inlet, one-outlet microfluidic device was used. The three inlet channels, from top to bottom, contained 5mM glucose solution, FPS-Sim-GOx magnetic nanomotor solution, and PBS buffer solution. The solution was delivered by an injection pump to simulate blood flow in capillaries in vivo. The middle channel was observed using an inverted microscope, and the chemotactic displacement of the nanomotor was determined by the change in fluorescence intensity perpendicular to the flow direction compared with the control group.

[0066] Figure 6 The enzymatic chemotaxis of the FPS-Sim-GOx magnetic nanomotor was demonstrated. The chemotactic behavior of the nanomotor in glucose solution was observed using a microfluidic device simulating blood flow. The changes in fluorescence intensity clearly show that the FPS-Sim-GOx magnetic nanomotor can chemotactically move towards the target site under the influence of glucose solution, demonstrating its enzyme-catalyzed chemotactic properties.

[0067] Experimental Example 3

[0068] Detection of tumor-killing effects of FPS-Sim-GOx magnetic nanomotors at the 2D cellular level:

[0069] 4T1 breast cancer cells were used as model cells. After resuscitation, the cells were passaged three times and then digested. A cell suspension at a density of 1 × 10⁵ cells / mL was added to 96-well plates and cultured for 24 hours in a 5% CO₂ incubator at 37°C. Cells were treated according to the following regimens: Group 1 was the control group; Group 2 received different concentrations of Simvastatin; Group 3 received FPS-Sim nanoparticles; Group 4 received FPS-Sim-GOx magnetic nanomotors; and Group 5 received FPS-Sim-GOx magnetic nanomotors followed by magnetic field treatment (25 Hz). Four hours after adding CCK-8 solution, the absorbance was measured at 450 nm using a microplate reader, and the relative cell viability of each well was calculated. Relative viability = (OD value of experimental group - OD value of blank group) / (OD value of control group - OD value of blank group).

[0070] Figure 7 This is a graph showing the cytotoxicity of CCK-8 cells treated with different drug groups. The graph displays the cell viability of different groups. By comparing the results of the FPS-Sim-GOx magnetic nanomotor treatment group with the control group, it was found that the FPS-Sim-GOx magnetic nanomotor can significantly reduce cell viability at a certain concentration, exhibiting strong cytotoxicity.

[0071] Experiment Example 4

[0072] Tumor penetration capability of FPS-Sim-GOx magnetic nanomotors detected at the 3D cellular level:

[0073] (1) 3D tumor cell spheres were prepared by selecting 4T1 breast cancer cells and 3T3 fibroblasts at a ratio of 1:5, with 1200 cells per well in each well of a low-adsorption U-shaped 96-well plate, and centrifuged at 3500 rpm for 5 minutes. The morphology and size were observed under a microscope from the second to the fifth day. When the diameter of the tumor spheres was about 250 mm, they could be used as models.

[0074] (2) The culture medium of the tumor cell sphere model was replaced with a solution containing the same concentration of fluorescently labeled FPS-Sim-GOx magnetic nanomotors and glucose concentrations of 0, 50, 100 and 200 μg / mL. After incubation for 4 h, the culture medium was discarded, and the cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde solution. The cells were then observed under a confocal laser scanning microscope, and fluorescence scanning was performed on the cell spheres from different layers to evaluate the permeation effect of FPS-Sim-GOx magnetic nanomotors in the tumor spheres. The above operation was repeated to evaluate the permeation effect of FPS-Sim-GOx magnetic nanomotors in the tumor spheres at magnetic field frequencies of 0, 5, 15 and 25 Hz.

[0075] Figure 8 This study demonstrates the penetration of FPS-Sim-GOx magnetic nanomotors into 3D tumor cell spheres at different glucose concentrations. The results in the figure show that the FPS-Sim-GOx magnetic nanomotors can effectively penetrate into the interior of tumor cell spheres at different glucose concentrations, and the penetration effect is enhanced with increasing glucose concentration.

[0076] Figure 9 This demonstrates the penetration of FPS-Sim-GOx magnetic nanomotors into 3D tumor cell spheres under different magnetic field frequencies. The figure shows that the penetration ability of the FPS-Sim-GOx magnetic nanomotors varies with different magnetic field frequencies. Increasing the magnetic field frequency effectively promotes the penetration of the nanomotors, demonstrating the significant impact of magnetic field modulation on its penetration effect.
