Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of nanomaterials, and more specifically, relates to CuET nanoparticles co-stabilized by hydroxyalkyl starch and polydopamine, nanomedicines for targeted delivery of CuET, and preparation and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] CuET is a coordination compound formed by the reaction of disulfiram, a widely used alcohol abstinence drug in clinical practice, and Cu(Ⅱ) ions. Studies have shown that CuET is the main active ingredient of disulfiram in its anti-cancer function. Disulfiram is first metabolized into DDTC salt after entering the body, and then reacts with Cu(Ⅱ) ions to generate CuET to kill cancer cells. There have been many clinical studies combining disulfiram and Cu(Ⅱ) ions for cancer treatment. However, clinical research results show that its anti-cancer effect is not good. The main reason is that disulfiram is not water soluble, and it is easily metabolized after entering the body, and it cannot effectively form CuET with the function of killing cancer cells at the tumor site. The method of directly using CuET also faces many challenges. CuET is also very poorly soluble in water and is easily cleared in the body. These factors have greatly limited the application of disulfiram and CuET in anti-cancer.

[0003] At present, there are many technologies that use various nanocarriers to load and deliver disulfiram or CuET for tumor treatment. Pu Yuji et al. used a variety of proteins to prepare CuET nanoparticles, which improved the water solubility of CuET. Tang Hanxiao et al. used PVP, PLLA-PEG and other polymers to prepare microspheres encapsulating CuET, which improved the water solubility and stability of CuET. However, these methods all have the following problems: 1. The prepared drug carrier lacks tumor targeting and is difficult to enrich at the tumor site; 2. The preparation process is complicated, the drug loading efficiency is not high, and the drug loading amount is not high; 3. Toxic organic reagents are required in the preparation process, which brings difficulties to impurity removal, purification and quality control. Summary of the invention

[0049] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0050] Hydroxyethyl starch is widely used as a plasma expander in clinical practice, and has good water solubility and excellent biocompatibility. In order to improve the stability of CuET in water, the present invention initially attempts to use hydroxyethyl starch for stabilization. Experiments have found that hydroxyethyl starch can improve the solubility and stability of CuET in water to a certain extent, and can be used for cancer treatment by in vivo injection. However, when it is used as an intravenous drug, no obvious tumor inhibition effect is observed, indicating that its stability cannot meet the requirements of intravenous injection. To this end, the present invention further provides a hydroxyalkyl starch and polydopamine co-stabilized CuET nanoparticles, which are nanoparticles formed by hydroxyalkyl starch and polydopamine co-stabilizing CuET nanocrystals, wherein hydroxyalkyl starch and polydopamine are coated on the surface of the CuET nanocrystals to form the hydroxyalkyl starch and polydopamine co-stabilized CuET nanoparticles. The present invention is by simultaneously coating hydroxyalkyl starch and polydopamine on the surface of CuET nanocrystals, and experiments have found that the solubility and stability of CuET nanocrystals in aqueous solution are significantly improved, and can be used for cancer treatment by intravenous injection.

[0051] The hydroxyalkyl starch of the present invention is hydroxymethyl starch, hydroxyethyl starch, hydroxypropyl starch or hydroxybutyl starch, preferably hydroxyethyl starch. In some embodiments, the molecular weight of the hydroxyalkyl starch is 25-480 kDa, and the molar substitution degree of the hydroxyalkyl of the hydroxyalkyl starch is 0.4-0.6; for example, when the hydroxyalkyl starch is hydroxyethyl starch, the molecular weight of the hydroxyethyl starch is 25-480 kDa, and the molar substitution degree of the hydroxyethyl of the hydroxyethyl starch is 0.4-0.6.

[0052] In some embodiments, the mass ratio of the hydroxyalkyl starch to the CuET nanocrystals is 100:1-100, preferably 100:5-20, and the mass ratio of the polydopamine to the CuET nanocrystals is 10:1-10, preferably 10:3-5.

[0053] In some embodiments, the diameter of the nanoparticles co-stabilized by hydroxyalkyl starch and polydopamine provided by the present invention is 40 to 300 nanometers.

[0054] The present invention also provides a CuET nanoparticle dispersion co-stabilized by hydroxyalkyl starch and polydopamine, which comprises CuET nanoparticles co-stabilized by hydroxyalkyl starch and polydopamine, wherein the nanoparticles are nanoparticles formed by hydroxyalkyl starch and polydopamine co-stabilizing CuET nanocrystals, wherein hydroxyalkyl starch and polydopamine are coated on the surface of the CuET nanocrystals so that the CuET nanocrystals are stably dispersed in water to form the dispersion.

[0055] In some embodiments, the concentration of the CuET nanoparticles co-stabilized by hydroxyalkyl starch and polydopamine in the dispersion is 0.1 to 100 mg / mL, preferably 1 to 10 mg / mL.

[0056] In the present invention, hydroxyalkyl starch and polydopamine are used as stabilizers to coat CuET nanocrystals, which may prevent the aggregation and precipitation of CuET nanocrystals by virtue of the weak binding effect between hydroxyalkyl starch, polydopamine and CuET, thereby improving the solubility and stability of CuET nanocrystals in aqueous solution.

[0057] The present invention also provides a method for preparing the nanoparticle dispersion, comprising the following steps:

[0058] (1) mixing a Cu(II) ion salt solution and a DDTC salt solution in a hydroxyalkyl starch aqueous solution to react with each other to obtain a hydroxyalkyl starch stabilized CuET nanoparticle dispersion;

[0059] (2) mixing the CuET nanoparticle dispersion stabilized by hydroxyalkyl starch in step (1) with dopamine under alkaline conditions to cause polymerization of dopamine, and obtaining the CuET nanoparticle dispersion co-stabilized by hydroxyalkyl starch and polydopamine after purification.

[0060] In some embodiments, in step (1), the concentration of the hydroxyalkyl starch aqueous solution is 0.1-100 mg / mL; the concentration of copper (II) ions in the Cu (II) ion salt solution is 0.000177-17.7 mg / mL; the molar ratio of the DDTC ions to the Cu (II) ions is 1.8-2.2:1, preferably 2:1; the Cu (II) ion salt is copper nitrate, copper sulfate or copper chloride; the DDTC salt solution is a DDTC sodium salt aqueous solution or a DDTC potassium salt aqueous solution; the Cu (II) ion salt solution and the DDTC salt solution are added dropwise to the hydroxyalkyl starch aqueous solution, and stirred while dropping to obtain a hydroxyalkyl starch stabilized CuET nanoparticle dispersion. The stirring includes but is not limited to magnetic stirring, mechanical stirring, vortex oscillation or ultrasonic oscillation.

[0061] In some embodiments, the Cu(II) ion salt solution and the DDTC salt solution are added to the hydroxyalkyl starch aqueous solution by dropwise addition, and the dropwise addition speed is 0.01 to 10 mL / s. When the stirring method is magnetic stirring, mechanical stirring, or vortex oscillation, the stirring speed is 10 to 3000 rpm / min. When the stirring method is ultrasonic oscillation, the ultrasonic power is 10 to 200 W.

[0062] In some embodiments, in step (2), the molar ratio of dopamine to the Cu(II) ions in step (1) is 10:0.427-4.27; after the hydroxyalkyl starch-stabilized CuET nanoparticle dispersion is mixed with dopamine in step (2), ammonia water or sodium hydroxide is also introduced to obtain the alkaline environment, and the pH range is 9-11. The purification in step (2) is ultrafiltration or dialysis.

[0063] In order to further improve the stability of CuET nanoparticles co-stabilized by hydroxyalkyl starch and polydopamine in the blood, the present invention modifies the surface of polydopamine in the nanoparticles with thiolated hydroxyalkyl starch, so that polydopamine reacts with thiol to form a CS covalent bond, further improving the stability of the nanodrug in the blood, and provides a CuET nanodrug co-stabilized by hydroxyalkyl starch and modified polydopamine. In some embodiments, the dispersion of CuET nanoparticles co-stabilized by hydroxyalkyl starch and polydopamine is mixed with thiolated hydroxyalkyl starch and then reacted, so that the surface of polydopamine therein is modified with thiolated hydroxyalkyl starch, that is, the CuET nanodrug co-stabilized by hydroxyalkyl starch and modified polydopamine is obtained. In some embodiments, the mass ratio of the thiolated hydroxyalkyl starch to the Cu(II) ions in the CuET is 100:0.00177~17.7.

[0064] In some embodiments, the thiolated hydroxyalkyl starch can be prepared by three steps: step S1, reacting hydroxyethyl starch with succinic anhydride to obtain carboxylated hydroxyethyl starch; step S2, reacting carboxylated hydroxyethyl starch with 2-(pyridine disulfide)-ethylamine hydrochloride to obtain hydroxyethyl starch-2-(pyridine disulfide); step S3, thiolation of hydroxyethyl starch-2-(pyridine disulfide) to obtain thiolated hydroxyalkyl starch.

[0065] Furthermore, in order to improve the targeting of CuET nanomedicine, the present invention also provides a nanomedicine for targeted delivery of CuET, which is a nanomedicine obtained by modifying the surface of polydopamine in the CuET nanoparticles co-stabilized with hydroxyalkyl starch and polydopamine with a layer of thiolated hydroxyalkyl starch coupled with a tumor-targeting molecule. The tumor-targeting molecule includes but is not limited to folic acid, lactobionic acid or iRGD peptide.

[0066] Taking folic acid as an example of a tumor-targeting molecule, thiolated hydroxyalkyl starch coupled with folic acid can be prepared by four steps: step S1, coupling hydroxyethyl starch with folic acid through an ester bond; step S2, reacting the hydroxyethyl starch coupled with folic acid with succinic anhydride to obtain carboxylated hydroxyethyl starch coupled with folic acid; step S3, reacting the carboxylated hydroxyethyl starch coupled with folic acid with 2-(pyridine disulfide)-ethylamine hydrochloride to obtain hydroxyethyl starch-2-(pyridine disulfide) coupled with folic acid; step S4, thiolation of hydroxyethyl starch-2-(pyridine disulfide) coupled with folic acid to obtain thiolated hydroxyalkyl starch coupled with folic acid, and the reaction route is as follows. Figure 1 shown.

[0067] In some embodiments, the preparation method of the nanodrug comprises the following steps: mixing the CuET nanoparticle dispersion co-stabilized by hydroxyalkyl starch and polydopamine with the thiolated hydroxyalkyl starch coupled with the tumor-targeting molecule and reacting the mixture so that the surface of the polydopamine is modified with a layer of thiolated hydroxyalkyl starch coupled with the tumor-targeting molecule, thereby obtaining the nanodrug.

[0068] In some embodiments, the mass ratio of the thiolated hydroxyalkyl starch coupled with folic acid to the Cu(II) ion in the CuET is 100:0.00177-17.7. The reaction time after mixing is 4-48 hours.

[0069] The CuET nanoparticles co-stabilized by hydroxyalkyl starch and polydopamine, the CuET nanoparticle dispersion co-stabilized by hydroxyalkyl starch and polydopamine, the CuET nanomedicine co-stabilized by hydroxyalkyl starch and modified polydopamine and / or the nanomedicine for targeted delivery of CuET described in the present invention can be used to prepare drugs for treating and / or preventing tumors.

[0070] Hyperbaric oxygen is widely used in the clinic as a treatment for carbon monoxide poisoning. The present invention has found that hyperbaric oxygen also helps promote the anti-tumor effect of anti-tumor nanomedicines. The present invention combines CuET nanoparticles co-stabilized by hydroxyalkyl starch and polydopamine, CuET nanoparticle dispersions co-stabilized by hydroxyalkyl starch and polydopamine, CuET nanomedicine co-stabilized by hydroxyalkyl starch and modified polydopamine, and / or the nanomedicine for targeted delivery of CuET with hyperbaric oxygen for anti-tumor treatment of mice, achieving good anti-tumor effects.
