Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of orthopedic medical materials, and in particular to an injectable bone cement with low exotherm and low elastic modulus, and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Osteoporosis is one of the most common diseases in the clinic and is a prominent problem in various common diseases around the world. Among them, osteoporotic fractures are more prominent and often occur in middle-aged and elderly people, with the highest incidence in postmenopausal women. The disease is accompanied by severe pain and limited activity, which poses a serious threat to the health of patients. In recent years, the method of minimally invasive vertebroplasty to inject bone cement to treat osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures has achieved considerable results in reducing vertebral pain and preventing vertebral collapse.

[0003] Methyl methacrylate (PMMA) bone cement can provide excellent mechanical support for the vertebral body and has become a commonly used material for vertebroplasty in clinical practice. Hydroxyapatite (HA), one of the main components of bones, has excellent bioactivity and biocompatibility. It can combine with the surrounding matrix bone through chemical reactions, and promote bone remodeling and new bone formation through mutual absorption and replacement with bone tissue. Among them, nanohydroxyapatite (n-HA) can effectively improve its solubility and bioactivity at a larger specific surface area, and has better practicality.

[0004] At the site of osteoporotic fracture, the oxygen level drops significantly due to the destruction of bones and blood vessels. The resulting hypoxia inhibits cell metabolism, causes cell death, and delays bone healing. At the same time, the massive proliferation of osteoclasts also inhibits bone repair and healing. PMMA bone cement has many defects in the clinical application of treating osteoporotic fractures. The large amount of heat released during the curing of bone cement raises the local temperature of bone tissue to above 60°C, which will damage bone tissue when it is higher than the tolerance temperature of bone tissue (about 47°C). In addition, PMMA bone cement has poor adhesion to human tissue and is not biologically active, and is prone to loosening after implantation. At the same time, the elastic modulus of methyl methacrylate bone cement is generally between 1700MPa and 3700MPa, and the high elastic modulus increases the risk of adjacent bone fractures. Although nanohydroxyapatite has excellent biocompatibility and osteoconductivity, its main mechanical properties are insufficient, and when it is compounded with polymers, due to factors such as agglomeration and poor adhesion, it will lead to problems of decreased mechanical strength and insufficient load-bearing capacity. Summary of the invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an injectable bone cement with low exotherm and low elastic modulus, and a preparation method and use thereof, wherein the anti-osteoporosis drug alendronate sodium is loaded into the bone cement to promote the formation of new bone by inhibiting the proliferation of osteoclasts.

[0030] On the other hand, the present invention provides the application of the injectable bone cement with low exotherm and low elastic modulus in the preparation of an implant material for the treatment of osteoporotic fractures.

[0031] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0032] 1) In the present invention, perfluorinated grafted hydroxyapatite is prepared and mixed with alendronate sodium and the oxidant benzoyl peroxide as the solid phase, and is poured into the liquid polymethyl methacrylate prepolymer according to a certain ratio and stirred evenly. At the same time, a certain amount of N,N-dimethylaniline reducing agent is added to prepare an injectable bone cement for the treatment of osteoporotic fractures with low exotherm, low elastic modulus, and the functions of inhibiting osteoclast proliferation and carrying oxygen. Each step of the reaction is safe and reliable, the operation is simple, and the conversion rate of each step is relatively high.

[0033] 2) Through the grafting of the hydrophobic polymer on hydroxyapatite, the interfacial binding property between its surface and the polymer is improved, enhancing the dispersion effect in the PMMA polymer.

[0034] 3) After the hydroxyapatite is modified with double bonds, a functional perfluoropolymer is grafted. The perfluorinated molecules can carry oxygen and promote angiogenesis and the proliferation of bone marrow stem cells by continuously releasing oxygen, thus accelerating the healing of bone tissue. As a representative anti-osteoporosis drug, alendronate sodium has a good affinity for bones, can inhibit the activity of osteoclasts and promote calcium intake. Alendronate sodium and the perfluorinated molecules in the perfluorinated modified hydroxyapatite act synergistically to promote the treatment of osteoporosis. In addition, by means of free radical polymerization, perfluorinated monomers are grafted onto hydroxyapatite, which can effectively increase the grafting amount to improve the interfacial dispersion of hydroxyapatite in organic polymers, and endow the bone cement with the function of carrying oxygen to improve the treatment effect of osteoporotic fractures.

[0035] 4) The bone cement is further cured under the redox system and acts jointly with the heat dissipating agent alendronate sodium and the modified hydroxyapatite, greatly reducing the heat released during the curing of the bone cement and lowering the maximum exothermic temperature below 43°C, playing a protective role for bone tissue. In addition, the bone cement prepared by the present invention has excellent drug release properties, mechanical properties and injectability, and its elastic modulus is between 700-900 MPa, having potential application value.

[0051] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0052] Example 1

[0053] A preparation method of an injectable bone cement with low exotherm and low elastic modulus includes the following steps:

[0054] (1) Synthesis of double bond modified hydroxyapatite (HA-CH=CH2): Dissolve 1 g of hydroxyapatite (HA), 1 g of hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI), and 2 drops of dibutyltin dilaurate (DBTDL) in 30 mL of anhydrous DMF, and react at 45 °C for 8 h under reflux condensation and nitrogen protection to obtain isocyanate group modified hydroxyapatite (HA-NCO). Dissolve 1.10 g of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) in 5 mL of DMF, slowly inject it into the above reaction system, stir overnight, centrifuge, and separate the particles by centrifugation and redispersion cycles with dichloromethane multiple times. Collect the powder and place it in a vacuum oven at 35 °C to dry thoroughly for 24 h, and grind it with a mortar to obtain a white powder HA-CH=CH2.

[0055] As Figure 2 shown, the successful synthesis of HA-NCO was proved by the absorption peak of -NCO at 2273 cm -1 . The successful synthesis of HA-CH=CH2 was proved by the appearance of the absorption peak of carbon-carbon double bond at 1680 cm -1 and the absorption peak of carbonyl at 1729 cm -1 , as well as the disappearance of the isocyanate group absorption peak.

[0056] (2) Synthesis of perfluorinated monomer (FOM): Dissolve 1 g of perfluorononanol, 0.3 g of isocyanatoethyl methacrylate, and 0.01 g of triethylamine in 15 mL of anhydrous tetrahydrofuran, heat and react at 50 °C for 24 h, and then remove tetrahydrofuran by vacuum rotary evaporation to obtain a crude product. Use a mixed solution of petroleum ether:ethyl acetate with a volume ratio of 6:1 as the eluent, purify it by silica gel column chromatography, evaporate the excess solvent, and dry it in a vacuum oven at 35 °C for 12 h to obtain a white powder FOM.

[0057] As Figure 3 shown, the successful synthesis of the product FOM was proved by the absorption peaks of the newly formed double bond and methyl after the reaction.

[0058] (3) Synthesis of HA-PFOM: Dissolve 0.5 g of double bond modified hydroxyapatite (HA-CH=CH2), 1.5 g of perfluorinated monomer (FOM), and 10 mg of azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) in 10 mL of anhydrous DMF and load it into a sealed tube. Freeze and degas three times under a nitrogen atmosphere and at -80 °C, and after vacuum flame sealing, react at 75 °C for 60 h, cool to terminate the reaction, and separate the particles by centrifugation and redispersion cycles with dichloromethane multiple times. Collect the powder and place it in a vacuum oven at 35 °C to dry thoroughly for 18 h, and grind it with a mortar to obtain a white powder HA-PFOM.

[0059] As Figure 4 shown, after the reaction, at 1239 cm -1Absorption peak of -CF3 at 1204 cm -1 and 1150 cm -1 Asymmetric and symmetric absorption peaks of -CF2 at, and the absorption peak of the carbonyl group at 1723 cm -1 proved the successful grafting of HA-PFOM.

[0060] As Figure 5 shown, the functionalized products HA-CH=CH2 and HA-PFOM showed the same peaks as HA, which confirmed that the grafting reaction did not cause any crystal changes and the formation of secondary phases, and still had good crystallinity.

[0061] As Figure 6 shown, it was calculated that the grafting rate of the double bond of hydroxyapatite was 23.1%, and the copolymerization rate of the double bond-modified hydroxyapatite and the perfluoromonomer was 0.75:1, that is, an average of 0.47 perfluoromonomers were grafted onto each hydroxyl group of hydroxyapatite.

[0062] As Figure 7 shown, the successful modification of hydroxyapatite was illustrated by the absorption peaks of fluorine and calcium elements.

[0063] (4) Preparation of methyl methacrylate prepolymer solution: 100 mg of benzoyl peroxide (BPO) was dissolved in 20 g of methyl methacrylate solution, placed in a conical flask and heated in a water bath at 75 °C for 20 min, then the heating was stopped, and the conical flask was placed in cold water to cool to terminate the reaction.

[0064] (5) Preparation of bone cement: Using 2 g of methyl methacrylate prepolymer solution as the liquid phase, and a mixture of 100 mg of perfluorinated modified hydroxyapatite (HA-PFOM), 100 mg of alendronate sodium (ALN) and 10 mg of benzoyl peroxide (BPO) as the solid phase, and after adding 10 mg of N,N-dimethylaniline (DMA), the two phases were thoroughly mixed and injected into a mold. It was placed in an oven at 37 °C for heating and curing, and the final bone cement sample was obtained after demolding.

[0065] Example 2

[0066] The preparation method of an injectable bone cement with low exotherm and low elastic modulus in this example is different from that in Example 1. In this example, a mixture of 200 mg of perfluorinated modified hydroxyapatite (HA-PFOM), 200 mg of alendronate sodium (ALN) and 10 mg of benzoyl peroxide (BPO) was used as the solid phase.

[0067] Example 3

[0068] The preparation method of an injectable bone cement with low exotherm and low elastic modulus in this example is different from that in Example 1. In this example, 300 mg of perfluorinated modified hydroxyapatite (HA-PFOM), 300 mg of alendronate sodium (ALN), and 10 mg of benzoyl peroxide (BPO) are mixed as the solid phase.

[0069] Example 4

[0070] The preparation method of an injectable bone cement with low exotherm and low elastic modulus in this example is different from that in Example 1. In this example, 400 mg of perfluorinated modified hydroxyapatite (HA-PFOM), 400 mg of alendronate sodium (ALN), and 10 mg of benzoyl peroxide (BPO) are mixed as the solid phase.

[0071] The contents of perfluorinated modified hydroxyapatite and alendronate sodium in Examples 1-4 are shown in the following table:

[0072] Table 1 Contents of perfluorinated modified hydroxyapatite and alendronate sodium in Examples 1-4

[0073]

[0074] As Figure 8 shown, the maximum temperature during the polymerization process is lower than 43 °C, far lower than the requirement of less than 90 °C in the international standard of surgical implants - acrylic resin cement (ISO-5833), which can inhibit tissue damage caused by a large amount of heat release during the polymerization process.

[0075] As Figure 9 shown, according to the method in the international standard of surgical implants - acrylic resin cement (ISO-5833), the setting times of the 4 groups of bone cements are measured to be 10-14 min, all meeting the requirement of less than 15 min in the national standard ISO-5833.

[0076] As Figure 10 shown, the bone cement splines are all cylinders with a diameter of 6 mm and a height of 12 mm. According to the test requirements in the international standard of surgical implants - acrylic resin cement (ISO-5833), the four groups of bone cements all meet the requirement of greater than 70 MPa in the national standard ISO-5833, maintaining good compressive mechanical properties.

[0077] As Figure 11As shown, the bone cement splines are all cylinders with a diameter of 6 mm and a height of 12 mm. The elastic modulus measured on a universal material testing machine is between 700 MPa and 900 MPa, which is significantly lower than that of the usual PMMA bone cement (1700 MPa - 3700 MPa). To a certain extent, it can reduce the wear of normal bones and the risk of secondary fractures caused by the stress changes in the fractured vertebrae and adjacent vertebrae due to the high elastic modulus.

[0078] As Figure 12 shown, the bone cement splines are all cuboids with a length of 75 mm, a width of 10 mm, and a height of 3.3 mm. According to the method in the international standard of surgical implants - acrylic resin cement (ISO - 5833), the flexural strength of the four groups all meets the requirement of being greater than 50 MPa in the national standard ISO - 5833, indicating good flexural mechanical properties.

[0079] As Figure 13 shown, the results show that the bone cement has good injectability.

[0080] As Figure 14 shown, after soaking the bone cement blocks with a diameter of 6 mm and a height of 12 mm in porcine plasma for 7 days, the weight loss rates of each group are very low, indicating that it can still maintain the structural integrity and has good anti - dispersion ability.

[0081] As Figure 14 shown, after the bone cement particles are soaked in an aqueous solution for different times, the extract is mixed with ninhydrin and sodium bicarbonate solution, and after heating at 90 °C for 25 min, the release rate of alendronate sodium is calculated to increase with time through the change of the absorption peak at 570 nm in the ultraviolet - visible absorption spectrum, and the final release rate can reach about 64% after 7 days.

[0082] Cytotoxicity detection tests were carried out on the bone cements of Examples 1 - 4 and the control group. That is, the bone cement powder was soaked in deionized water for 24 h, and the supernatant was extracted and incubated with bone marrow macrophages in a 96 - well plate for 24 h. Then, CCK - 8 reagent was added to each well and incubated at 37 °C for 2 h, and the ultraviolet - visible absorbance at 450 nm was measured.

[0083] Table 2 Results of cytotoxicity detection tests for the bone cements of Examples 1 - 4 and the control group

[0084] Experimental group Survival rate of bone marrow macrophages Control group 100% Example 1 99.7% Example 2 98.3% Example 3 97.7% Example 4 97.2%

[0085] As can be seen from Table 2, the calculated cell survival rates are all above 97%, proving that the bone cements prepared in Examples 1 - 4 of the present invention have good biocompatibility.

[0086] The alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activities of the bone cements in Examples 1-4 and the control group were measured. SD rat osteoblasts were seeded on a 24-well plate and co-cultured with the bone cements. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) was extracted on the 7th day, and the absorbance at 409 nm was read using a plate reader. The ALP activity was normalized with the total protein content.

[0088] Experimental group Alkaline phosphatase activity Control group 4.1 Example 1 5.6 Example 2 6.4 Example 3 7.9 Example 4 11.7

[0089] As can be seen from Table 3, with the increase in the contents of alendronate sodium and modified hydroxyapatite, the alkaline phosphatase (ALN) activity increased significantly, which was beneficial to bone healing.

[0090] The above content is only an example and illustration of the structure of the present invention. Those skilled in the art of the present technology can make various modifications or supplements to the described specific embodiments or use similar methods for substitution. As long as they do not deviate from the structure of the present invention or exceed the scope defined by this claims, they should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
