Abstract
Description
A method for preparing fat bodies
[0001] This application claims priority to a Chinese patent application filed with the Patent Office of China on March 5, 2024, with application number 202410251149.0 and invention name “A Method for Preparing Fat Bodies”, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field
[0002] The present invention belongs to the field of biomedical technology, and in particular relates to a large-scale preparation method of fat bodies. Background Art
[0003] Fat bodies are artificially synthesized nanospheres that mimic the lipid structure of lipoproteins or lipid droplets in cells. The main structural feature of fat bodies is a single-molecule phospholipid layer wrapped around a neutral lipid core, with a hydrophobic interior and a hydrophilic outer surface. Fat bodies have significant structural differences from previously disclosed liposome nanoparticles, lipid nanoparticles for nucleic acid delivery, and exosome nanoparticles. The internal hydrophobic neutral lipid core gives fat bodies a natural advantage in delivering hydrophobic small molecules. At the same time, the specific monolayer phospholipid membrane on the periphery simulates the phospholipid membrane structure of lipid droplets or lipoproteins, which can recruit specific proteins and provide a basis for the design of targeting molecules.
[0004] Nanoemulsions are prepared using methods such as high-pressure homogenization, microfluidics, ultrasound, phase inversion emulsification, and self-emulsification. The basic principle of high-pressure homogenization is to generate high pressures of up to 300 MPa in the chamber during the delivery stroke, forcing a coarse emulsion through the micron-sized orifices of the homogenizer valve. Turbulence, shear stress, and cavitation transform the coarse emulsion into finer droplets. The high-pressure homogenization emulsification process consists of two main stages: first, the dispersed phase is disrupted, resulting in the formation of tiny droplets in the homogenization chamber, increasing the surface area. Then, emulsifier molecules accumulate at the newly formed interface, stabilizing the droplets. Repeated high-pressure homogenization can generate a large number of nanodroplets. The microfluidics method uses microchannels with a size range of 50 to 300 μm to generate nanodroplets. Its basic principle is similar to that of high-pressure homogenization. The crude emulsion is passed through the microchannel at a high pressure and high flow rate at the inlet, and is divided into two branches through the branch channel. Then, the branches are reconnected in the downstream interactive channel. In the interaction chamber, the crude emulsions from the two channels collide with each other at a very high speed, and the shear rate can reach 107 s. -1, thereby breaking up the coarse emulsion into a fine emulsion. Ultrasonic methods utilize the mechanical vibrations and acoustic cavitation generated by ultrasound to prepare nanoemulsions. The intense shock waves produced by ultrasound and cavitation create high pressure and turbulence, causing the microdroplets to collapse and break up, producing fine nanoemulsions. However, ultrasonic treatment requires an optimal level of input energy to achieve the smallest droplet diameter. Excessively high or low energy levels result in poor emulsification. Ultrasonic probes are often used to emulsify droplets to produce nanoemulsions, and benchtop sonicators are also used for small-scale nanoemulsion production. These are commonly used high-energy input methods for preparing nanoemulsions. Several low-energy input methods are also used to prepare nanoemulsions. Phase transfer emulsification exploits the fact that some emulsifiers, at a fixed composition, change their hydrophilicity or lipophilicity with temperature. Some nonionic surfactants change their spontaneous curvature due to hydration of their polar ends, forming oil-in-water emulsions at low temperatures. At high temperatures, this decreases as the emulsifier's solubility in water increases, resulting in water-in-oil emulsions. The temperature at which an oil-in-water emulsion transforms into a water-in-oil emulsion is called the phase transition temperature. Emulsions can form near this temperature, but they are unstable and require rapid cooling or heating to produce kinetically stable emulsions with small particle sizes and narrow particle size distributions. Self-emulsification is another low-energy emulsion synthesis method. This method involves mixing water, oil, and an emulsifier at a specific temperature. Gentle mechanical agitation allows the emulsifier to enter the aqueous phase, increasing the oil-water interfacial area and forming nanodroplets.
[0005] However, the above-mentioned emulsion synthesis methods each have disadvantages: high-pressure homogenization and microfluidics easily form amorphous membrane structures mixed in the emulsion; phase transfer method and self-emulsification method require specific emulsifiers (surfactants), which do not conform to the biocompatibility principle of fat body raw materials. Published fat body synthesis technologies are mainly vortex and ultrasound. Their basic principle is to use mechanical force or ultrasonic cavitation to force phospholipids and triglycerides to self-assemble in an aqueous system to form a single-layer phospholipid membrane coated with triglyceride core nanospheres (patent No. CN105483076B, US10987431B2, EP3395329A). The vortex method is to introduce phospholipids and neutral lipids into an aqueous system (buffer) respectively, and high-speed vortex separation of large oil droplets into small oil droplets. At the same time, phospholipid molecules can form a single-layer phospholipid membrane on the surface of the small oil droplets. After multiple vortexes, the large droplets are homogenized into small droplets, and then separated into fat bodies through a purification step. While existing vortexing techniques can produce high-purity liposomes, their phospholipid utilization rate is very low (<10%). Furthermore, the process is complex and requires manual operation (using a vortexer for 10 seconds x 24 cycles). Therefore, this technique is suitable for preparing small batches of liposomes for laboratory research but not for large-scale production. Ultrasonic methods utilize the mechanical vibrations generated by an ultrasonic probe combined with ultrasonic cavitation and turbulence to break up large neutral lipid droplets into smaller ones. Phospholipid molecules are then assembled on the surface of the neutral lipid droplets to form liposomes. However, current ultrasonic liposome preparation requires either probe ultrasound or water-bath ultrasonic emulsification in an ultrasonic cleaning machine. The resulting liposomes also suffer from low phospholipid utilization, making them unsuitable for large-scale production.

[0089] The crude emulsion is purified to obtain fat bodies; the resulting crude emulsion contains membrane structures resulting from phospholipid self-association, which should be removed during the separation and purification step. In the present invention, the principle that fat bodies contain a neutral lipid core, which generally results in a lower density than the buffer, can be exploited. The crude emulsion can be purified by stepwise centrifugation to remove membrane contamination in the crude emulsion and collect the fat bodies. The change in fat body density as a function of diameter is calculated as shown in formula (a).
[0090] Among them D Adiposome is the density of fat body, r Adiposome is the radius of the fat body, D Polar lipid and D Neutral lipid are the density of polar lipids and the density of neutral lipids, respectively. Polar lipid is the thickness of a fully hydrated polar lipid monolayer.
[0091] The calculation of the pseudo-gravitational acceleration (×g) required for the centrifugation process as a function of the fat body diameter is shown in formula (bd).
[0092] During the centrifugal process, fat bodies are mainly affected by three forces, namely buoyancy, viscous resistance and centrifugal force. When the three forces are balanced, the fat body radius r, fat body density ρ a , continuous phase (buffer) density ρ b , the centrifugal angular velocity ω, the effective centrifugal radius of the fat body x (the distance from the center of the fat body to the center of the centrifuge rotor), and the viscosity coefficient η of the continuous phase are as shown in formula b.
[0093] The floating coefficient s can be defined for the fat body according to the formula, and the corresponding analytical expression is formula c. Δρ is the difference between the continuous phase density and the fat body density.
[0094] Define the pseudo-gravitational acceleration in the centrifugal field as g'=ω 2 R, R is the effective radius of the centrifuge rotor, and the diameter of the fat body is d. The relationship between the distance traveled by the fat body in a fixed time during centrifugation and the pseudo-gravitational acceleration can be calculated using formula d.
[0095] Therefore, the required centrifugal force can be determined by determining the movement distance of the fat body and the centrifugal time in different centrifugal fields.

The use of density gradient medium can increase the overall density of the crude emulsion so that the fat bodies can float during centrifugation and be separated from membrane pollution. Different centrifugal speeds can be used to separate fat bodies with different particle size distributions, thereby obtaining fat bodies of different particle sizes.

Ultrasonic emulsification was performed at 250 W, 40 kHz, and 60% amplitude at 30°C for 1 minute, with 30-second intervals between sonications, for a predetermined total sonication time. The specific sonication times for each sample were 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, and 20 minutes. Samples were taken at each time point to measure the average particle size and polydispersity index of the emulsion.

[0109] A 25 mg / ml 1,2-dioleoylphosphatidylcholine (DOPC) chloroform solution was prepared, and specific amounts of DOPC (125 μg, 250 μg, 375 μg, 500 μg, and 1,000 μg) were transferred to a 1.5 mL Eppendorf tube and the chloroform was removed with a gentle stream of nitrogen. The dried DOPC was mixed with 100 μL of HEPES buffer. Then, 1 μL of triolein (TOG) was added to the buffer and the mixture was sonicated at 250 W, 40 kHz, 60% amplitude at 30 ± 5 ° C for 1 minute. The sonication was paused for 10 seconds while another 1 μL of TOG was added to the mixture. Then, the sonication was restarted for 1 minute. This process was repeated until 5 μL of TOG was finally added to the mixture. Seven further cycles of sonication were performed until a total sonication time of 12 minutes was obtained to prepare a crude fat body emulsion. Measure the absorbance of the crude emulsion (indicating the concentration of the emulsion) and select samples with high absorbance for separation and purification.
[0110] The crude emulsion was purified using fractional centrifugation to collect the fat bodies. First, 100 μL of the emulsion was mixed with 10 μL of HEPES buffer containing 50% glycerol to increase the density of the emulsion. Then, HEPES buffer was gently added to the top of the emulsion until the emulsion and buffer phases were close in height (the total volume of the emulsion and buffer was approximately 750 μL).
[0111] The suspension was subjected to gradient centrifugation, starting with 1,000-1,600 x g at 4°C for 5 min and fat body sample 1 was collected from the top of the buffer. If necessary, the buffer was gently refilled.
[0112] Centrifuge again at 16,000-18,000 × g at 4°C for 5 minutes and collect fat body sample 2 from the top of the buffer. Gently refill the buffer if necessary.
[0113] Finally, the cells were centrifuged at 20,000-21,000 × g for 5 min at 4°C and fat body samples were collected from the top of the buffer solution.
[0114] The collected fat body samples 1, 2, and 3 were observed for their microscopic morphology using an optical microscope and an electron microscope, their average particle size and polydispersity were measured using a dynamic light scattering particle size analyzer, and their lipid composition and purity were detected using thin layer chromatography.

A control group (2,000 μg DOPC) containing the same phospholipid dosage reported in the literature (ACS Nano 2016, 10, 3, 3312–3322) was used. A represents the OD600 value of the purified fat bodies produced using different amounts of DOPC.

[0117] Figure 5 shows the transmission electron microscopic morphology of fat bodies collected under different centrifugation conditions in the 500 μg group. Liposomes were prepared by transferring 500 μg of DOPC dissolved in chloroform to a 1.5 mL Eppendorf tube and drying it with a gentle stream of nitrogen. The dried phospholipids were mixed with 200 μL of HEPES buffer and 5 μL of triolein.

Liposome samples were prepared by transferring 80 μL of a 25 mg / mL DOPC chloroform solution (containing 2,000 μg of DOPC) to a new 1.5 mL Eppendorf tube and evaporating the chloroform with a gentle stream of nitrogen. The dried DOPC was mixed with 100 μL of HEPES buffer to prepare a phospholipid buffer mixture. The phospholipid buffer mixture was then sonicated. The mixture was sonicated at 250W, 40kHz, and 60% amplitude at 30±5°C for 1 minute, followed by a 10-second pause.

Total TOG was prepared using 4.6 mg (5 μL) of TOG, not mixed with DOPC, but added directly to the same volume of buffer, followed by the same sonication and lipid extraction procedures. B is a quantification of DOPC by thin-layer chromatography. Figures a1-c1 show liposomes collected by centrifugation at 1,000 × g, 1,300 × g, and 1,600 × g, respectively, and prepared with 375 μg of DOPC. Figures d1-f1 show liposomes collected by centrifugation at 1,000 × g, 1,300 × g, and 1,600 × g, respectively, and prepared with 500 μg of DOPC. Total DOPC was prepared using 500 μg of DOPC, not mixed with TOG, but added directly to the same volume of buffer, followed by the same sonication and lipid extraction procedures. C shows the yields of DOPC and TOG calculated using ImageJ based on grayscale intensity on the TLC plate. D is the ratio of DOPC to total lipids. For all quantitative measurements, n = 3. Under these conditions, the neutral lipid utilization rate of liposome fractions collected after centrifugation at 1,000 × g, 1,300 × g, or 1,600 × g and then at 16,000 × g was >40%, and the phospholipid utilization rate was >30%. This phospholipid utilization rate was nearly fourfold higher than that of published methods. The ratio of phospholipids to neutral lipids also showed that the actual liposome purity was consistent with the predicted value. Thin-layer chromatography was performed using a neutral lipid eluent (n-hexane: ether: acetic acid = 80:20:1, v / v / v) and, after drying, then developing with a phospholipid eluent (chloroform: methanol: acetic acid: water = 75:13:9:3, v / v / v / v) to a depth of 1 / 5 to 1 / 4 the neutral lipid eluent. After sufficient drying, the samples were stained with saturated iodine vapor for 30 minutes to visualize the lipid composition.
[0119] Figure 7 shows the results of a fat body stability test. Fat bodies were produced using 500 μg of DOPC. Fat bodies collected by centrifugation at 1,300 × g and then 16,000 × g were sealed and stored at 4°C. The average diameter of the fat bodies was measured using DLS at predetermined intervals (n = 9). Figure 7 shows that the stability of the fat bodies collected by centrifugation at 16,000 × g did not change significantly over 90 days.
[0120] Example 2
[0121] A phospholipid mixture (DOPC (98.5%) + DSPE-PEG (2000) Amine (1.5%), mol / mol) was first dissolved in ethanol. Ultrasonication and heating were used to adjust the ethanolic phospholipid solution concentrations to 64, 95, and 127 mM, respectively. 5 μl of triolein (TOG) was added to 100 μl of HEPES buffer. The ethanolic solution of the dissolved phospholipid mixture was then added dropwise to the TOG buffer mixture, 1 μl at a time. The mixture was sonicated at 250 W, 40 kHz, and 60% amplitude at 30 ± 5°C for 1 minute. The sonication was paused for 10 seconds. The ethanol solution was then added dropwise, sonicating for 1 minute and pausing until all 4 μl of the ethanolic phospholipid solution had been added. An additional 2 μl of pure ethanol was then added, resulting in phospholipid additions of 0.25 μmol, 0.38 μmol, and 0.51 μmol, respectively, corresponding to phospholipid / neutral lipid ratios of 5%, 7.5%, and 10% (mol%). Repeat until the total ultrasonic treatment time is 15 minutes to prepare a fat body crude emulsion.
[0122] The crude emulsion was purified by ultrafiltration centrifugation to collect the fat bodies. An ExoEasy spin column (QIAGEN, Germany) with a molecular weight cutoff of 100 kDa was used. 800 μl of crude fat body emulsion was transferred to the column and centrifuged at 1,000 × g for 5 minutes at 4°C. The lower emulsion (approximately 50% to 60% of the total volume) was collected into a new 1.5 ml EP tube. The upper emulsion was further centrifuged (1,000 × g for 5 minutes at 4°C). The remaining emulsion was designated as Fraction 1. The lower emulsion was then centrifuged again at 16,000 × g for 5 minutes at 4°C to separate the upper fat body layer from the lower dilute emulsion (approximately 80% of the total volume). The upper fat body layer was designated as Fraction 2, and the lower dilute emulsion was designated as Fraction 3.
[0123] The collected fat body sample components 1, 2, and 3 were observed for their microscopic morphology using an optical microscope, and their average particle size and polydispersity were measured using a dynamic light scattering particle size analyzer.
[0124] FIG8 is a schematic diagram of the process for preparing fat bodies according to Example 2 of the present invention.
[0125] Figure 9 shows that Fractions 1 and 2 are rich in fat bodies and appear as white emulsions, while Fraction 3 contains very few fat bodies and is nearly transparent. OD600 (the absorbance of the emulsion at 600 nm) indicates that the concentration of Fraction 1 is much higher than that of Fraction 2 (under conditions where the emulsion droplet size is similar).
[0126] Figures 10-12 show the microscopic morphology of fat bodies prepared from three different phospholipid concentrations. Figure 10 shows the microscopic morphology of fat body fractions with a 5.0% phospholipid neutral lipid ratio: (A) Fraction 1, (B) Fraction 2, and (C) Fraction 3. From left to right, the images are bright field (DIC), Nile Red staining, and merged channels. Scale bar: 5 μm.
[0127] Figure 11 shows the microscopic morphology of different fat body fractions with a 7.5% phospholipid-neutral lipid ratio. (A) Fraction 1, (B) Fraction 2, and (C) Fraction 3. From left to right, bright field (DIC), Nile Red staining, and merged channels are shown. Scale bar: 5 μm.
[0128] Figure 12 shows the microscopic morphology of fat body fractions at different 10.0% phospholipid-neutral lipid ratios. (A) Fraction 1, (B) Fraction 2, and (C) Fraction 3. From left to right, the images are bright field (DIC), Nile Red staining, and merged channels. Scale bar: 5 μm.
[0129] Figures 10-12 show that Fractions 1 and 2 in each group are uniform spherical particles. However, under the same dilution conditions, Fraction 3, despite having a smaller droplet volume, exhibits Nile Red staining of the neutral lipid core within the spherical particles. Figure 13 provides the particle size distribution of different adipocytes. As the phospholipid dosage increases, the average particle size of Fraction 1 decreases, while that of Fractions 2 and 3 shows little change. This method demonstrates the applicability of ultrafiltration separation to the separation and purification of adipocytes.
