Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of medical beauty, and particularly to a preparation method of an injectable agarose gel containing a sodium hyaluronate derivative. Background Art

[0002] Injectable beauty is a type of non-surgical plastic surgery. By injecting a biological material or a synthetic biocompatible material into the dermis or subcutaneous tissue, different mechanisms are used to reduce skin wrinkles or reshape the body, which is a type of plastic surgery method.

[0003] Hyaluronic acid is a linear high-molecular-weight viscous polysaccharide composed of repeating disaccharide units of glucuronic acid and N-acetylglucosamine. Hyaluronic acid is an endogenous substance in the human body, with good biocompatibility; it has high viscoelasticity and non-Newtonian rheological properties; it is non-toxic, non-immunogenic, non-irritating, has high safety, and can be degraded and eliminated by injecting hyaluronidase. Therefore, it is widely used as a soft tissue filler in beauty. That is, injecting hyaluronic acid into the skin to increase the volume of soft tissue can achieve the purpose of removing wrinkles or reshaping the body.

[0004] However, since hyaluronic acid itself exists in a liquid form, it is very easy to be decomposed under the action of hyaluronidase and free radicals in the body. The hyaluronic acid-based gel is basically degraded and absorbed in the body in about 6 months, and consumers have to inject again, which increases the burden on consumers. Therefore, it is difficult to achieve the plastic effect and the filling effect has a short duration.

[0005] Therefore, it is an urgent problem to provide an injectable agarose gel with excellent enzyme resistance, long retention time in the body, low toxicity, low residue, and small extrusion force. Summary of the Invention

[0103] Table 1: Cytotoxicity Test of Sodium Hyaluronate Derivative Gel Solution

[0104]

[0105] From the test results in Table 1, it can be seen that the sodium hyaluronate derivative gel solution prepared by cross-linking sodium hyaluronate with glycerol triglycidyl ether and neopentyl glycol diglycidyl ether in the present invention has good biocompatibility and low toxicity; the sodium hyaluronate derivative gel solution prepared from glycerol triglycidyl ether and neopentyl glycol diglycidyl ether with a mass ratio of 1:4 shows the best biocompatibility effect.

[0106] 10. The above sodium hyaluronate derivative gel solutions 1-8 were subjected to an in vitro enzyme stability test.

[0107] The above sodium hyaluronate derivative gel solutions 1-8 were sterilized by γ-ray irradiation (dose 25 kGy), and then an in vitro enzyme stability test was carried out.

[0108] Take 0.5 g of the above sodium hyaluronate derivative gel solution, add 2 mL of hyaluronidase solution with an activity of 300 U / mL, and then enzymatically hydrolyze at 37 °C for 40 hours; after enzymatic hydrolysis, add PBS buffer to 5 mL; then take 1 mL, add 4 mL of absolute ethanol and mix well, and then centrifuge at 10000 r / min for 12 min; take 2 mL of the supernatant after centrifugation and make up the volume to 5 mL with PBS buffer to obtain solution K1.

[0109] Take 0.5 g of the above sodium hyaluronate derivative gel solution, add 10 mL of sulfuric acid solution with a concentration of 0.5 mol / L, hydrolyze in a boiling water bath for 15 min, and then dilute with water to 100 mL to obtain solution K2.

[0110] Take 1 mL each of solution K1 and solution K2, and measure the glucuronic acid content in solution K1 and solution K2 by the modified carbazole colorimetric method.

[0111] Calculate the in vitro anti-enzyme degradation coefficient R of the gel solution. The calculation formula is: R = 100 * (1 - 0.625T1 / T2), where T1 is the glucuronic acid content of solution K1 and T2 is the glucuronic acid content of solution K2.

[0112] Among them, the higher the value of the in vitro anti-enzyme degradation coefficient R, the better the in vitro anti-enzyme degradation performance and the more stable the gel. The results of the in vitro enzyme stability test of the above sodium hyaluronate derivative gel solutions 1-8 are shown in Table 2.

[0113] Table 2: In vitro enzyme stability test of sodium hyaluronate derivative gel solution

[0114]

[0115] It can be seen from the test results in Table 2 that the sodium hyaluronate derivative gel solution prepared by crosslinking sodium hyaluronate with glycerol triglycidyl ether and neopentyl glycol diglycidyl ether in the present invention has good inhibitory effect on the degradation of hyaluronidase and has a long retention time in vivo. From the comparison results of gel solutions 1, 5-8, it can be obtained that when glycerol triglycidyl ether and neopentyl glycol diglycidyl ether are used to crosslink sodium hyaluronate in the mass ratio range of 1:(3-5), the in vitro enzyme stability of the obtained sodium hyaluronate derivative gel solution is better. It is speculated that this may be because the crosslinking degree of the molecular chains, the strength and chain length of the crosslinking chains brought by different crosslinking agents affect the physical and chemical properties of the crosslinked products, and the properties of the crosslinked products obtained by doping different crosslinking agents for crosslinking are more stable.

[0119] Step 2: Place the buffer solution in a mixing container, then add agarose and sodium hyaluronate derivative gel solution, heat to 50°C, stir at 500 revolutions per minute for 1 hour to mix evenly, cool to 25°C, and sterilize by γ-ray irradiation (dose 28 kGy) to obtain the injectable agarose gel;

[0120] Among them, the injectable agarose gels prepared using the above sodium hyaluronate derivative gel solutions 1-8 are sequentially named injectable agarose gels 1-8. Then, performance tests of the products are carried out, and the test results are shown in Table 3.
