Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of preparation of bioactive drugs, and in particular relates to a novel biopharmaceutical based on porphyrin derivatives and lipids and a manufacturing process thereof. Background Art
[0002] Porphyrin is a macrocyclic compound containing four pyrrole molecules. Due to its unique structure and special properties, it has been widely used in biochemistry, medicine, analytical chemistry, synthetic chemistry, materials science and other fields in recent years.
[0003] Current research on different types of porphyrins includes modifying protoporphyrin with polyethylene glycol to prepare water-soluble porphyrin derivatives, and using nitrobenzaldehyde and pyrrole as raw materials to prepare tetraaminophenylporphyrin. Furthermore, porphyrin-containing siloxanes have also been prepared, but these methods simply dope the porphyrin into the siloxane, where the porphyrin acts as a thermal stabilizer. Different porphyrins or varying amounts of porphyrin are added as needed to improve the thermal stability of the siloxane. However, these methods do not effectively improve the processing properties of porphyrins.
[0004] To this end, we provide new biopharmaceuticals based on porphyrin derivatives and lipids and their manufacturing processes to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions:
[0006] The present invention is a novel biopharmaceutical based on porphyrin derivatives and lipids, which comprises a protein containing natural porphyrin and its derivatives, and a lipid with a natural or modified active ingredient;
[0007] The above substances are in the form of mixtures or individual substances and are formed into liposomes or emulsions by appropriate means.
[0008] The present invention is further configured such that the emulsion contains:
[0009] 0.001% to 1% porphyrin substance FS;
[0010] 0.001% to 1% hydrophobic feoofitin a;
[0011] 0.01% to 10% lipid as an emulsifier;
[0012] and acceptable auxiliary ingredients, taste and aroma additives, and water.
[0013] The present invention is further configured such that the lipid of the active ingredient is derived from cyanobacteria of the genus Spirulina, plants of the genus Urea or phospholipids derived from cholesterol.
[0014] The present invention is further provided that the drug is prepared in liquid form, has a higher molar concentration of lipid content, is suitable for oral spraying, aerosol inhalation or solution inhalation, and can be activated under irradiation of light of a specific wavelength.
[0015] The present invention is further configured such that the drug also contains lecithin and cholesterol, with the ratio of the two being 7:3.
[0016] The manufacturing process of the novel biopharmaceutical based on porphyrin derivatives and lipids includes the following steps:
[0017] preparing proteins and their derivatives containing natural porphyrins;
[0018] Preparation of active lipids of natural or modified origin;
[0019] The above ingredients are combined to form liposomes or emulsions.
[0020] The present invention is further configured such that the extraction process of the porphyrin substance FS comprises the following steps:
[0021] Extraction of raw porphyrin;
[0022] acid treatment to remove magnesium ions;
[0023] Washing with organic solvents (e.g., hexane, acetone), hydrochloric acid, and citric acid buffers;
[0024] Phosphorylation was performed in vacuo;
[0025] Combined with differential chromatography to improve extraction efficiency.
[0026] The present invention is further configured to mix the porphyrin solution with ethanol, purified water and glycerol (20%) by high-intensity mixing in a turbulent flow mode, thereby obtaining an emulsion with a specific ratio;
[0027] The specific steps include mixing the alcohol solution of FS with a hydro-alcoholic mixture and glycerol or Tyzol (surfactant), followed by further mixing under turbulent conditions.
[0028] The present invention is further configured such that the types of liposomes in the emulsion include multilamellar vesicles (MLL), large unilamellar vesicles (BOL) and small unilamellar vesicles;
[0029] Hairy liposomes can be formed by using phospholipids; other lipids such as phosphatidyldiethanolamine or phosphatidyldianiline can also be used to prepare hairy liposomes.
[0030] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0031] 1. The biopharmaceuticals containing porphyrin derivatives and lipids provided by the present invention utilize liposomes or emulsions as carriers to effectively deliver active ingredients (such as porphyrin substance FS and hydrophobic pheophytin a) to the target site. This drug delivery system can improve the stability and bioavailability of the drug in the body.
[0032] 2. The biopharmaceuticals provided by the present invention, which contain porphyrin derivatives and lipids, are prepared in liquid form and are suitable for a variety of administration routes, including oral spray, aerosol inhalation, or solution inhalation, providing more flexible treatment options. They are particularly suitable for the treatment of diseases that require local effects and are activated under irradiation with light of a specific wavelength. Thus, the drug effect can be enhanced by controlling an external light source, providing a non-invasive treatment method.
[0033] 3. The active ingredients in the biopharmaceuticals containing porphyrin derivatives and lipids provided by the present invention are derived from phospholipids derived from cyanobacteria, plants, or cholesterol in nature. These natural ingredients generally have good biocompatibility and low toxicity risk, which increases the safety of drug use. In addition, by using different lipid materials and technologies (such as phosphatidylserine proteins), various types of liposomes such as multi-hairy liposomes, large unilamellar liposomes, and small unilamellar liposomes can be prepared, providing the possibility of optimizing the release characteristics and targeting ability of drugs.
[0034] Of course, any product implementing the present invention does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
