Benefits of technology

The invention provides a method for reducing wrinkles in skin by injecting a filler composition into the skin. Additionally, the invention provides a hyaluronic acid hydrogel that can be used to deliver bioactive substances like proteins or stem cells. The hydrogel can be crosslinked to have specific physical properties and is safe and compatible with the body. The method for making the hydrogel involves modifying hyaluronic acid with a gallol group and crosslinking it under appropriate conditions. Overall, the invention provides a means to improve skin quality and appearance by injecting a filler and delivering bioactive substances.

Problems solved by technology

However, with aging, amounts of hyaluronic acid, collagen, elastin, and other matrix polymers present in the skin decrease.
Loss of this material results in wrinkles, holes, moisture loss, and / or other undesirable conditions that contribute to aging.
However, hyaluronic acid crosslinked products prepared by the methods in these patents have low stability against a hyaluronic acid-degrading enzyme and a high content of unreacted chemicals, which may cause bio-toxicity.
In addition, it is not easy to control crosslinking or physical properties of these products depending on an intended use.
Thus, there are limitations in applying such products to various medical materials.

Preparation Example 1

[0104]Preparation of Hyaluronic Acid Derivative Modified with Gallol Group

[0105]As illustrated in FIG. 1, a hyaluronic acid derivative modified with a gallol group according to the present invention was prepared. Specifically, hyaluronic acid (MW 200K, Lifecore Biomedical, LLC, IL, USA) was completely dissolved in water (TDW), and 1 equivalent of N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS, Sigma-Aldrich, Inc., St. Louis, Mo., USA) and 1.5 equivalent of 1-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ehtylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC, Thermo Scientific, Rockford, Ill., USA) were added thereto. After 30 minutes, 1 equivalent of 5′-hydroxydopamine (Sigma-Aldrich, Inc.) was added thereto as a PG moiety and the resultant was allowed to react at pH 4 to 4.5 for 24 hours. Reactants having two different molar ratios were used in the preparation of HA-PG conjugates (HA:EDC:NHS:PG=1:1.5:1:1 or 2:1.5:1:1). Then, EDC, NHS, and 5′-hydroxydopamine were removed by dialysis based on PBS and water (Cellu / Sep (tr...

[0106]Preparation of Hyaluronic Acid Hydrogel

[0107]The hyaluronic acid derivatives of Preparation Example 1 were crosslinked to prepare a hyaluronic acid hydrogel, in which each crosslinking method using sodium periodate (NaIO4) as an oxidizing agent or sodium hydroxide (NaOH) as a pH adjusting agent (pH 8 to 9) was employed. Specifically, the hyaluronic acid derivatives were dissolved in PBS (1% (w / v), 2% (w / v)), and then crosslinking was allowed to proceed while performing mixing with 4.5 mg / ml of NaIO4 or 0.08 M NaOH at a volumetric ratio of 1.5:1 to 4:1 relative to the hyaluronic acid derivative solution. As illustrated in FIG. 3, through each of these crosslinking methods, a light brown-colored hyaluronic acid hydrogel or a blue-colored hyaluronic acid hydrogel was prepared.

[0108]In order to specifically identify crosslinking of the hyaluronic acid hydrogel, analysis with ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-vis) was performed. In a case of using NaIO4, as illustrated in FIG. 4...

[0109]Changes in Physical Properties of Hyaluronic Acid Hydrogel Depending on Crosslinking Method

[0110]In the present example, changes in physical properties of hyaluronic acid hydrogels, depending on difference in crosslinking method in Preparation Example 2, were compared. On the other hand, in the hydrogel preparation step, a molar concentration ratio of hyaluronic acid to 5′-hydroxydopamine (0.5×(HA:EDC:NHS:5′-hydroxydopamine=2:1.5:1:1), lx (HA:EDC:NHS:5′-hydroxydopamine=1:1.5:1:1)) could be used to adjust a rate of being substituted with a gallol group to 4% to 5% (0.5×) or 8% to 9% (1×) (not shown), and changes in physical properties of hydrogels depending on a degree of substitution of 5′-hydroxydopamine were also compared. Specifically, hydrogel formation and changes in elastic modulus over time were compared depending on crosslinking methods; and elasticity, adhesive strength, swelling, and degradation patterns depending on the crosslinking method and the degree of substitu...

Abstract

The present invention provides a hydrogel platform using, as a substrate, hyaluronic acid (HA) conjugated to a pyrogallol (PG) moiety. The HA-PG conjugate of the present invention can be rapidly crosslinked by two different methods, in each of which an oxidizing agent is used or a pH is adjusted. The hydrogel of the present invention can not only have excellent biocompatibility, but also can have efficiently controlled physical characteristics such as a crosslinking rate, elasticity, and adhesive strength, depending on each crosslinking method. On the basis of such excellent stability and functionality, the hydrogel of the present invention can be used in various fields including drug delivery, biopharmaceutical materials such as a wound healing agent or anti-adhesive agent, medicines, and cosmetic products.
