TECHNICAL FIELD

BACKGROUND

[0002] With the development of social economy, the demand and consumption of psychotropic drugs are on the rise, the types of abuse are updated and iterated at an accelerated pace, causing the legal management to lag behind, and the abuse of narcotic and psychotropic drugs is still severe and complex.

[0003] To solve the problem of lagging behind in the management of new narcotic and psychotropic drugs in judicial practice, prevent and combat the behavior of alternative abuse of psychotropic drugs, and protect public safety and people's health, judicial organs actively carry out related work, but face many difficulties and challenges. On the one hand, there are many types of psychotropic drugs, complex chemical structures, and unknown mechanisms of action, making it difficult to accurately identify and classify them. On the other hand, there is a lack of sufficient experimental data and scientific basis, making it difficult to determine the specific damage to human function, the strength of addiction, and the related criminal responsibility and penalty standards.

[0004] It is of great significance to clarify the psychotropic toxicity or physiological / psychological dependence of psychotropic drugs for judicial work and related research. At present, the methods for evaluating the psychotropic toxicity or physiological / psychological dependence of drugs mainly include animal experiments and in vitro experiments. Although animal experiments have high biological relevance and reliability, they have problems such as animal welfare, ethics, cost, time, scale, etc. Although in vitro experiments have the advantages of flexibility and high efficiency, the current in vitro models are mainly two-dimensional cell culture models, which cannot simulate the in vivo environment, resulting in inaccurate evaluation of drug absorption, metabolism and toxicity.

[0043] The examples are given to better illustrate the present application, but are not intended to limit the present application to the examples only. Therefore, the skilled in the art can make non-essential improvements and adjustments to the embodiments according to the above disclosure, which still fall within the protection scope of the present application.

[0044] The terms used herein are only used to describe specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present disclosure. Unless there is a clear different meaning in the context, the singular form includes the plural form. As used herein, it should be understood that terms such as "include", "have", "contain", etc. are intended to indicate the presence of features, numbers, operations, components, parts, elements, materials, or combinations. The terms of the present application are disclosed in the specification, and are not intended to exclude the possibility that one or more other features, numbers, operations, components, parts, elements, materials, or combinations thereof can exist or can be added. As used herein, " / " can be interpreted as "and" or "or" depending on the circumstances.

[0045] The embodiment of the present application provides a biological ink, which comprises a neuroblastoma cell line, methacrylated gelatin (hereinafter also referred to as GelMA), a photoinitiator and a basement membrane matrix (hereinafter also referred to as Matrigel).

[0046] It should be noted that GelMA is a kind of light crosslinking hydrogel based on the dual characteristics of temperature sensitivity and light crosslinking, and has good biocompatibility and plasticity. Using GelMA hydrogel as a biological ink to print a neuroblastoma cell line can manufacture a nerve tissue scaffold with complex shape and porous structure, and provide a suitable growth environment for neuroblastoma cells. In addition, the RGD peptide in GelMA can specifically enhance the adhesion of SH-SY5Y cells, promote the expression of immature neuron marker tuj1; the matrix can induce neuron differentiation and promote the expression of mature neuron marker map2; in addition, the combination of GelMA and basement membrane matrix can prepare a biological model that can simulate the in vivo environment and simulate human nerve function (such as the characteristics and functions of human brain neurons), and promote the expression of dopaminergic neuron marker TH; when the two kinds of matrix glue are combined, the expression of the three markers TUJ1\MAP2\TH is induced to the highest.

[0047] It should also be noted that the cell clusters of the biological model constructed based on GelMA and basement membrane matrix in the present application have better stability than the existing cell clusters based on low adhesion micropore array, and at the same time have the advantages of cell clusters (such as having a dense extracellular matrix to reduce the transport efficiency of exogenous drugs and having a biomimetic nature).

[0048] In some specific examples, the neuroblastoma cell line in the above-mentioned biological ink can be selected from one or more of SH-SY5Y cell line, SK-N-SH cell line or SK-N-BE cell line.

[0049] It should be noted that the neuroblastoma cell line in the present application refers to a cell line with neuron characteristics or expressing nerve markers, such as SH-SY5Y cell line, SK-N-SH cell line or SK-N-BE cell line; preferably, the SH-SY5Y cell line, which is a human neuroblastoma cell line, has various neuron characteristics and can be used to study the protective or damaging effect of drugs on human brain neurons. In addition, the biological model constructed by the SH-SY5Y cell line maintains high activity of the cell cluster and significantly down-regulates the proliferation rate within 0-6 days of culture, indicating that the cells appear differentiation phenotype, which is a cell line suitable for constructing a biological model.

[0050] In some specific examples, the above-mentioned biological ink can satisfy one or more of the following conditions:

[0051] (i) the neuroblastoma cell line is selected from one or more of SH-SY5Y cell line, SK-N-SH cell line or SK-N-BE cell line;

[0052] (ii) the photoinitiator is selected from one or more of LAP, Irgacure 2959 or Irgacure 819;

[0053] (iii) the neurospheres are in a single cell suspension;

[0054] (iv) in the bio-ink, the mass percentage of the methacrylated gelatin is 4-6%, and the mass percentage of the basement membrane matrix is 20-30%; specifically, when the mass percentage of the methacrylated gelatin is higher than 8%, the Young's modulus is too large, which is not suitable for cell culture, and in the present application, the mass percentage is preferably 4-6%, such as 4.2%, 4.5%, 4.7%, 4.9%, 5.2%, 5.5%, 5.7% or 5.9%, etc.; in addition, when the mass percentage of the basement membrane matrix is too large, the bio-ink cannot be in a semi-gel state during printing, causing printing difficulties, in addition, more than 30% will not have a positive guiding effect on the expression of neuronal markers, and will increase the economic cost, and in the present application, the mass percentage is preferably 20-30%, such as 23%, 25%, 27% or 29%, etc.

[0055] (v) in the bio-ink, the cell density of the neurospheres is 1.2x10^6 / ml-1.2x10^7 / ml.

[0056] In some specific examples, in the above bio-ink, any one of the following can be preferentially selected:

[0057] 1) in the bio-ink, the mass percentage of GelMA is 4.2%, and the mass percentage of the basement membrane matrix is 30%;

[0058] 2) in the bio-ink, the mass percentage of GelMA is 5.6%, and the mass percentage of the basement membrane matrix is 20%.

[0059] It should be noted that the bio-model prepared from the above two groups of bio-ink is more accurate in evaluating the effect of psychotropic drugs on human body function damage or addiction and evaluating the effect of physiological / psychological dependence caused by psychotropic drugs.

[0060] In some specific examples, the neurospheres in the above bio-ink can be in a single cell suspension form.

[0061] It should be noted that the neurospheres in the bio-ink in the present application can be in a single cell suspension, and the preparation of the single cell suspension is well known in the art, such as can be obtained by trypsin digestion.

[0063] It should be noted that the three-dimensional bioprinting technology based on 3D printing is a technology of precisely positioning and stacking biological materials, cells and the like according to a preset three-dimensional structure, so as to generate an artificial tissue or organ with specific morphology and function. The biological model constructed based on the technology can be used to evaluate the influence of a drug on different tissues or organs, has high customization, complexity, flexibility and accuracy, can realize spatial distribution and interaction of multiple cell types, multiple biological materials and multiple biological signals, and can simulate the microstructure and macro function of a natural tissue.

[0065] In some specific examples, in the preparation method, the amount of cells in each droplet is 1.0x10^ 5 cells-1.0x10^ 7 cells.

[0066] It should be noted that the amount of cells in each droplet in the present application is the limit carrying capacity of two-dimensional cell culture, but in three-dimensional culture, the cells can exceed the carrying capacity after proliferation.

[0067] The embodiment of the present application also provides an application of the in-vitro humanized neural model in the present application in evaluating the psychotropic toxicity or physiological / psychological dependence of a drug.

[0068] In some specific examples, in the application, the drug comprises a psychoactive drug, an antitumor drug or a central nervous system drug.

[0069] It should be noted that the psychoactive drug, the antitumor drug or the central nervous system drug are all drugs known in the art; for example, the psychoactive drug can be a caffeine, a hallucinogen (such as diethylamide of lysergic acid, mescaline, phencyclidine or ketamine), an opiate (such as diacetylmorphine, morphine, methadone, dihydroetorphine, meperidine, buprenorphine or fentanyl), and the like; for another example, the antitumor drug can be carboplatin, vincristine sulfate or cisplatin, and the like; for another example, the central nervous system drug can be an antipsychotic drug (such as risperidone, aripiprazole, chlorpromazine, haloperidol, and the like, which alleviates symptoms by blocking dopamine receptors in the brain or regulating other neurotransmitter systems), an antiepileptic drug (such as carbamazepine, phenytoin sodium or valproate sodium, and the like, which prevents abnormal discharge by stabilizing nerve cell membranes or regulating neurotransmitters), an antidepressant drug (such as a tricyclic antidepressant (such as amitriptyline, imipramine or chlorimipramine), a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (such as paroxetine, sertraline, fluoxetine), a 5-HT1A receptor partial agonist, and the like, which exerts an antidepressant effect by increasing the level of 5-hydroxytryptamine in the brain, agonizing 5-HT1A receptors or other mechanisms), an anxiolytic drug (such as diazepam, lorazepam, and the like, which exerts an effect by enhancing the action of gamma-aminobutyric acid in the brain, which is an inhibitory neurotransmitter), a ganglionic blocking drug (such as mecamylamine, pirenzepine or hexamethonium, and the like, which can block the transmission of nerve impulses), a nerve terminal blocking drug (such as oryzanol, cobalamin or methylcobalamin), an adrenergic receptor blocking drug (such as metoprolol tartrate, metoprolol succinate or bisoprolol, and the like), and the like.

[0070] The embodiment of the present application also provides an opiate drug classification prediction model based on the in-vitro humanized neural model in the present application, and the opiate drug classification prediction model comprises:

[0071] Step 1, obtaining data features of the neurotoxicity target data, randomly selecting candidate features as root nodes of a classification tree from the data features, and selecting the best split point of the data features based on Gini importance to split the nodes to obtain child nodes of the classification tree, recursively selecting the best split point of the data features until the node splitting meets a stop condition to obtain a classification tree model;

[0083] In order to better understand the application, the content of the application will be further illustrated below in combination with specific examples, but the content of the application is not limited to the following examples.

[0084] I. Construction of humanized neural model

[0085] In the following examples, GelMA and photoinitiator LAP are from EFL (Engineering For Life); Matrigel is from Corning, item number 356237.

[0086] Example 1

[0087] (1) Cell seeding: SH-SY5Y cell line (human neuroblastoma cell line) (cell concentration 1 x 10^4 cells / mL) was seeded in DMEM / F12 medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum, 1% penicillin-streptomycin double antibody (medium type: 11320033, Thermo, 1:1 (V / V) mixture of DMEM and Ham's F-12, which contains glucose, amino acids and vitamins of DMEM and F-12) in a 37°C, 5% carbon dioxide incubator, and when the cells grew to 90% confluence, stable passage was carried out (i.e. 2D culture cells were obtained);

[0088] (2) Manufacture of neural microspheres (hereinafter also referred to as cell microspheres): when the cells proliferated to 90% confluence in the two-dimensional culture dish, the proliferated SH-SY5Y cells were digested into a single cell suspension with 0.25% trypsin; then the single cell suspension was seeded into an oxygen-permeable device with a regular hexagonal honeycomb micro-pore array (an oxygen-permeable device with a regular hexagonal honeycomb micro-pore array was prepared by pouring polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) into an etched silicon plate mold, with a single hole inner diameter of 126 μm and a PDMS membrane thickness of about 0.5 mm) and cultured for 48 h (2 days) to aggregate into neural microspheres;

[0089] (3) Bio-ink mixing: after centrifugation of the neural microspheres at 1000 rpm for 3 min, the supernatant was discarded, and the cells were resuspended to prepare a bio-ink (the photoinitiator LAP powder was dissolved in D-PBS buffer to form a 0.25% mass fraction solution, then the solution was used to dissolve GelMA to form a GelMA solution with a GelMA mass concentration of 6%, the GelMA solution and Matrigel were mixed in a volume ratio of 7:3 to form a mixture, and the mixture and the single cell suspension were mixed to form a bio-ink; in the bio-ink, the final GelMA mass fraction was 4.2%, the Matrigel mass fraction was 30%, and the cell density was 1.0 x 10^ 7 / mL);

[0090] (4) Droplet-like nerve model manufacturing: The prepared bio-ink was sucked into a 3 mL syringe, and a point injection needle with an inner diameter of 0.34 mm was assembled on a 3D printer (SunP BioMaker 4) (photocured for 20 s after printing was completed); in the 96-well plate high-throughput toxicology characterization experiment, 10 μl of droplets were printed in each well, and the cell amount in each well was 1.0x10^5, which played a better effect in subsequent experimental measurement; wherein the printing parameters included: the printing used a point injection needle with a size of 23G (inner diameter of 0.34 mm), printing speed: 4 mm / s; extrusion speed: 1 mm³ / s, to ensure that the droplet extrusion amount was 10 uL. In addition, a three-dimensional grid-like model for drug dependence evaluation was printed in a 60 mm culture dish by micro-extrusion (printing parameters: 23G (inner diameter of 0.34 mm), printing speed: 4 mm / s; extrusion speed: 1 mm³ / s, extrusion form: 15x15x1.2 mm grid-like printing layer height 0.4, printing layer number 3), and the grid-like structure was 15 mmx15 mmx1.2 mm, and about 100 μL of bio-ink was required for each structure.

[0091] Example 2

[0092] The difference between Example 2 and Example 1 is that the bio-ink mixture in step (3) is different, and the others are the same as Example 1; in Example 2, the bio-ink mixture includes: centrifuging the neural microspheres at 1000 rpm for 3 min, then discarding the supernatant, resuspending the cells, and then preparing the bio-ink (dissolving the photoinitiator LAP powder in D-PBS buffer to form a 0.25% solution, then dissolving GelMA in the solution to form a GelMA solution with a GelMA mass concentration of 6%, mixing the GelMA solution and Matrigel to form a mixture, and mixing the mixture with the single cell suspension to form the bio-ink; in the bio-ink, the final GelMA mass fraction is 5.6%, the Matrigel mass fraction is 20%, and the cell density is 1.0x10^ 7 / mL).

[0093] Comparative Example 1

[0094] According to Figure 1The flowchart shown realizes the rapid construction of SH-SY5Y neural model (SH-SY5Y cell cluster) based on a low-adhesion micropore array, as follows: an oxygen-permeable device with a honeycomb-shaped micropore array of regular hexagons is prepared by pouring polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) into an etched silicon plate mold, with a single-hole inner diameter of 126 μm and a PDMS membrane thickness of about 0.5 mm; the low-adhesion microenvironment effectively guides the self-assembly of SH-SY5Y cells, and after 48 hours of culture, microscopic imaging confirms that a large number of cell clusters with uniform morphology, high stability and good activity are formed in the device, providing a reliable in vitro model for efficient construction of a neural model.

[0095] However, SH-SY5Y is a semi-adherent cell, and previous experiments have shown that it will be in a suspended state under environmental stress, and the SH-SY5Y cell cluster planted in the PDMS oxygen-permeable micropore array device cannot meet the subsequent evaluation of neurotoxicity, and in the presence of drugs, the morphology and structure of the cell cluster are unstable and prone to deformation or rupture.

[0106] II. Application of humanized neural model

[0107] (I) Cell differentiation phenotype

[0108] The humanized neural model prepared in Example 1 maintains high activity (p<0.001) within 0-6 days of culture (37°C, CO2) as a high-throughput drug toxicity evaluation model and as a drug dependence evaluation model, and the proliferation rate is significantly down-regulated, indicating that the cells appear a differentiation phenotype. Figure 2

[0109] (II) Fentanyl toxicity characterization study​

[0110] (1) The drug dependence evaluation models prepared in Example 1 and Example 2 and Comparative Examples 2 to 6 were respectively cultured in 35 mm dishes, 2 mL of culture medium was added in each dish, and the culture was carried out for 24 h (37°C, CO2);

[0111] (2) After the culture was completed, 100 uL of fentanyl solution (fentanyl hydrochloride was dissolved in methanol to prepare a mother liquor with a concentration of 100 mM, and then diluted with cell culture medium to different concentrations) of different concentrations (1 mM, 10 mM, 100 mM) was added for incubation for 24 h;

[0112] (3) After the incubation was completed, the CCK8 kit (YEASEN, 40203ES60) was used to detect the cell proliferation activity under the action of different concentrations of fentanyl (the detection method was referred to the kit instruction), and thus the fentanyl neurotoxicity characterization data was obtained.

[0113] (Three) Fentanyl neurodependence characterization

[0114] The increase of the expression amount of opioid receptors indicates that the neurodependence of the cells to fentanyl increases, which can be used as a reference standard for quantifying fentanyl crime; the desensitization and expression reduction of opioid receptors is the main mechanism of opioid drug tolerance; and the increase and decrease of the expression amount of dopamine and dopamine receptors after tolerance is the main mechanism of opioid drug addiction. Therefore, the influence of psychotropic drugs on the release amount of dopamine, the expression of four kinds of opioid receptors (mu opioid receptor, kappa opioid receptor, delta opioid receptor and nociceptin receptor (NOP)), and the expression of dopamine receptors in the in-vitro 3D neural model can be evaluated.

[0115] The specific steps in this characterization are as follows:

[0116] (1) The drug dependence evaluation models prepared in Example 1 and Example 2 and Comparative Examples 2 to 6 were respectively cultured in 35 mm dishes, 2 mL of culture medium was added in each dish, and the culture was carried out for 24 h (37°C, CO2);

[0117] (2) After the culture was completed, 100 uL of fentanyl solution (fentanyl hydrochloride was dissolved in methanol to prepare a mother liquor with a concentration of 100 mM, and then diluted with cell culture medium to different concentrations) of different concentrations (1 mM, 10 mM, 100 mM) was added for incubation for 24 h;

[0118] (3) After the incubation was completed, the CCK8 kit (YEASEN, 40203ES60) was used to detect the cell proliferation activity under the action of different concentrations of fentanyl (the detection method was referred to the kit instruction), and thus the fentanyl neurotoxicity characterization data was obtained.

[0119] (4) After sufficient lysis (generally 20 min), centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 5 min, discard the supernatant, and add 5 mL of complete medium to repeat the washing and centrifugation once to obtain the cell sample;

[0120] (5) The expression levels of μ, δ and σ opioid receptors were determined by qPCR kit (SYBR GREEN I Master Mix (11184ES08, YEASEN, refer to the kit instructions for testing method), and the expression level of secreted dopamine was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit (Bioek: Human Dopamine ELISA Detection Kit).

[0121] The statistical results of dopamine release under different concentrations of fentanyl (0, 1 μM, 10 μM, 100 μM) are shown in Table 1, and the expression levels of the four opioid receptors under different concentrations of fentanyl (0, 1 μM, 10 μM, 100 μM) are shown in Table 2. Figure 3 Figure 4

[0122] In addition, the expression of neuronal differentiation biomarkers Tuj1, MAP2, NEfL, NEfM and TH of the cell samples obtained in Examples 1 to 2 and Comparative Examples 2 to 6 was detected by qPCR kit (SYBR GREEN I Master Mix (11184ES08, YEASEN, refer to the kit instructions for testing method), and the results are shown in Tables 3 and 4. Figure 5 Figure 6 The expression levels of Tuj1, MAP2, NEfL, NEfM and TH in Examples 1 and 2 were significantly increased (the expression levels of the neural markers TUJ1\MAP2\TH in the model in Example 2 were higher than those in Example 1), indicating that the 3D neural model in the application had good biological activity and neural related functionality, and could be used for subsequent high-throughput drug screening and neurotoxicity evaluation. Moreover, the expression levels of neuronal differentiation biomarkers in the mixed system were significantly increased compared with the pure GelMA and Matrigel system or other mixed systems.
