Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of fiber scaffold, in particular to an exosome functionalized bone regeneration topological fiber scaffold and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Trauma, infection and tumor resection can all cause bone defects. According to statistics, there are more than 3 million patients with bone defects in China every year. Bone defect treatment is one of the important problems that orthopedic clinicians have been trying to solve for a long time. At present, the vascularization and biological functional repair of bone defects still face severe challenges. Therefore, the development of vascularization-promoting and biological functional bone defect repair scaffolds can reduce the pain and social and economic burden of patients, and has important significance for promoting the construction of "healthy China" and improving the quality of life and health level of the people. So far, based on the exploration of the structure-property relationship of scaffold material components, a series of bone regeneration repair scaffolds have been designed and developed, which have shown great potential in promoting bone performance. However, the newly formed bone often leads to bone sclerosis or bone necrosis due to the lack of effective new blood vessel network, so there are still great challenges in achieving biological functional repair of bone defects.

[0003] The strategy of loading biochemical factors or cells to promote vascularization to construct vascularized bone regeneration scaffolds has been widely reported. Most of the bone tissue regeneration scaffolds designed and constructed at present directly regulate the behavior of cells related to vascular formation to promote vascular formation, and few regulate the "angiogenesis-osteogenesis-osteoclast" three-way coupling effect in the process of vascularized bone regeneration to achieve vascularized bone regeneration. Exosomes, as an important tool for intercellular communication, are called "lipid nanoparticles in nature", and have been proven to play an important role in promoting angiogenesis-osteogenesis. Macrophages have strong plasticity and are highly involved in the bone immune response and vascularized bone regeneration mediated by endothelial cells, osteoblasts and osteoclasts. Therefore, macrophage-derived exosomes, as messengers of intercellular communication, are likely to play an important role in regulating the "angiogenesis-osteogenesis-osteoclast" three-way coupling effect to mediate vascularized bone regeneration, but there are few related reports. SUMMARY

[0004] In order to solve the above-mentioned deficiencies existing in the prior art, the purpose of the present application is to provide an exosome functionalized bone regeneration topological fiber scaffold and a preparation method thereof, which can effectively improve the preparation of existing fiber scaffolds and the problems of bone tissue engineering scaffolds in realizing vascularized bone tissue regeneration.

[0005] The technical scheme for solving the above technical problems of the present application is as follows: a preparation method of an exosome functionalized bone regeneration topological fiber scaffold is provided, comprising the following steps:

[0006] (1) preparing a fiber scaffold substrate by electrospinning of bioactive molecules and high molecular compounds with different degradation rates;

[0007] (2) soaking the fiber scaffold substrate in an aqueous solution to obtain a topological fiber scaffold with a micro-sodium secondary pore structure;

[0008] (3) modifying the topological fiber scaffold with a micro-sodium secondary pore structure to make its surface positively charged, and then loading exosomes onto the fiber scaffold to obtain an exosome functionalized bone regeneration topological fiber scaffold.

[0009] The fiber scaffold substrate is soaked in PBS buffer or water, and the biologically active ingredients in the fiber scaffold substrate degrade quickly, while the high molecular compounds degrade slowly, forming a degradation gradient difference. The topological fiber scaffold with a micro-sodium secondary pore structure can be obtained by soaking in an aqueous solution, taking advantage of the degradation gradient difference between the high molecular compounds and the biologically active molecules. The micro-sodium secondary pore structure defined here refers to the pores between the fibers being micron-sized, and the pores on the fibers being nanometer-sized. The topological fiber scaffold with a micro-sodium secondary pore structure can promote cell adhesion, migration, proliferation and differentiation. When implanted in vivo, it can promote the adhesion of BMSCs (bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells) and macrophages, and further promote osteogenic differentiation and regulate bone immune response, ultimately mediating bone regeneration. The exosomes loaded on the topological fiber scaffold can be macrophage-derived exosomes, which can act as messengers for cell-to-cell communication, regulate the interaction between endothelial cells, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells and immune cells, and play an important role in regulating vascularized bone regeneration mediated by the "angiogenesis-osteogenesis-osteoclast" ternary coupling effect. The topological fiber scaffold provided in the present application combines the physical properties (micro-sodium secondary pore structure) and biological properties (functional exosomes) of the scaffold itself to regulate cell behavior and mediate vascularized bone regeneration.

[0010] On the basis of the above technical solution, the present application can also be improved as follows:

[0011] Further, the specific process of step (1) is as follows: dispersing the biologically active molecules in an organic solvent, adding a high molecular compound, mixing uniformly to obtain a spinning solution, and preparing a fiber scaffold substrate by electrospinning.

[0012] Further, the biologically active molecules in step (1) are fish collagen, gelatin and derivatives thereof; the high molecular compound is a synthetic or natural high molecular compound, which can be polycaprolactone, poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid), polylactic acid, polyurethane, polyamide, chitosan, fish collagen, gelatin and derivatives thereof. The weight of the biologically active molecules accounts for 5-60% of the weight of the high molecular compound, preferably the weight of the biologically active molecules accounts for 10-30% of the weight of the high molecular compound.

[0013] The bioactive molecules and high molecular compounds are not limited to the above-mentioned compounds, as long as the bioactive components and the high molecular compounds have a certain degradation rate gradient in the aqueous solution, and can be electrospun into fibers, that is, the degradation rate gradient difference of the bioactive molecules and the high molecular compounds is beneficial to the formation of the topological fiber pore structure, and further adjusts the physicochemical properties and cell behavior of the topological fiber scaffold.

[0014] Further, the organic solvent in step (1) is trifluoroethanol, hexafluoroisopropanol, acetone, trifluoroacetic acid or N,N-dimethylformamide.

[0015] Further, in step (1), the electrospinning process parameters are set as follows: voltage 5-15kV, push injection speed 0.1-2mL / h, and receiving distance 5-25cm; preferably, the process parameters are as follows: voltage 6-10kV, push injection speed 0.2-0.6mL / h, and receiving distance 10-20cm.

[0016] Further, in step (1), the fiber scaffold substrate is a uniaxial fiber, a coaxial fiber with a core-shell structure or a multi-axial structure fiber.

[0017] Further, in step (2), the aqueous solution is PBS buffer or water, and the soaking time is 3-14 days, preferably 3-7 days.

[0018] The beneficial effects of the above further technical solutions are: the content of the bioactive components in the fiber scaffold substrate and the soaking time in the PBS buffer or water are very important, the higher the content of the bioactive components, the easier the formation of the pore structure, and the soaking time directly affects the formation of the topological fiber pore structure, the pore size and distribution, the micro-nano pore structure of the topological fiber scaffold plays an important role in adjusting the physicochemical properties, degradation performance, biocompatibility and cell behavior of the material system, and the corresponding pore structure and density can be selected according to the specific application environment.

[0019] Further, in step (3), the process of modifying the topological fiber scaffold is as follows: the topological fiber scaffold is soaked in NaOH solution, washed with deionized water after taking out, and then the surface of the topological fiber scaffold is positively charged through the EDC / NHS / PEI / MES reaction system, and finally washed with physiological saline.

[0020] Further, the concentration of the NaOH solution is 0.1-1 mol / L, and the soaking time is 3-10 min; the molar ratio of EDC to NHS is 3:1-1:1, and the molar ratio of PEI to EDC is 1:3-1:1; the concentration of MES is 0.1-0.5 M, the pH is 5-6.5, and the added volume is 10-20 mL; preferably, the concentration of the NaOH solution is 0.1-0.5 mol / L, and the soaking time is 5 min; the molar ratio of EDC to NHS is 2:1-1:1, and the molar ratio of PEI to EDC is 1:2-1:1; the concentration of MES is 0.1-0.3 M.

[0021] Further, the reaction time of the topological fiber scaffold in the EDC / NHS / PEI / MES reaction system is 0.5-2 h, and preferably the reaction time is 0.5-1 h.

[0022] The beneficial effects of the above further technical solutions are: the fiber scaffold is soaked in a NaOH solution, the purpose of this treatment is to improve the hydrophilicity of the fiber scaffold, and carboxyl groups are generated on the fiber surface through hydrolysis, and then the scaffold is thoroughly cleaned with deionized water. After cleaning, the fiber scaffold is subjected to an EDC / NHS / PEI / MES reaction system, so that PEI is coupled to the fiber scaffold, and the surface of the fiber scaffold is positively charged. MES is a buffer in EDC / NHS / PEI / MES, and the molar ratio of EDC / NHS / PEI plays a more important role in the surface modification of the topological fiber scaffold. On the basis of the above specific molar ratio, the surface charge of the topological fiber scaffold can be effectively converted to a positive charge, which is beneficial for loading exosomes.

[0023] Further, the process of loading exosomes onto the fiber scaffold in step (3) is: placing the fiber scaffold with a positively charged surface in an aqueous solution containing exosomes, and after standing at 0-4℃ for 3-24 h, the exosome functionalized bone regeneration topological fiber scaffold is obtained.

[0024] Further, the concentration of the aqueous solution containing exosomes is 1×10 9 -1×10 15 / ml, and preferably the concentration is 1×10 11 -1×10 13 / ml; the standing time is preferably 4-12 h.

[0025] The beneficial effects of the above further technical solutions are: PEI has abundant amino groups, which can effectively load exosomes onto the surface of the topological fiber scaffold material through positive and negative charge interaction.

[0026] Further, the exosomes are M2 macrophage-derived exosomes, or M1 macrophage or bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell or bone marrow cell-derived exosomes.

[0027] Exosomes, as the messenger of cell-cell communication, can regulate the interaction of endothelial cells, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells and immune cells, and can regulate the immune cell responsiveness around the implanted material, and plays an important role in regulating the vascularized bone regeneration mediated by the“angiogenesis-osteogenesis-osteoclastogenesis”ternary coupling effect.

[0028] The present application has the following beneficial effects:

[0029] The preparation and modification method of the topological fiber scaffold provided by the present application is simple and effective, the biologically active molecules and high molecular compounds with different degradation rate gradients are subjected to electrospinning and simple soaking treatment in the later stage, and the topological fiber scaffold with micro-nano secondary pore structure is prepared, the surface electric property of the topological fiber scaffold is converted into positive charge through the NaOH / EDC / NHS / PEI / MES reaction system, and the negatively charged exosomes can be loaded on the surface of the high molecular based topological fiber scaffold material through the charge effect.

[0030] The hydrophilicity of the topological fiber scaffold is significantly improved after surface modification, which is beneficial to cell adhesion, migration, proliferation and differentiation, and further promotes bone tissue regeneration.

[0031] The micro-nano secondary pore structure of the topological fiber scaffold improves the nanoscale roughness of the fiber scaffold, which is beneficial to cell adhesion and migration.

[0032] In addition, after the topological fiber scaffold is loaded with exosomes, not only the nanoscale roughness of the scaffold is further improved, but also the immune cell responsiveness after implantation of the scaffold is adjusted, the behaviors of endothelial cells, osteoblasts and osteoclasts are adjusted, and then the vascularized bone tissue regeneration is effectively realized.

[0033] The method for regulating vascularized bone regeneration by combining the physical properties of the topological fiber scaffold itself and biological clues provided by the present application is simple and effective, the preparation and modification method of the topological fiber scaffold is stable, repeatable, simple to operate and easy to scale up.
