Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of drugs for treating allergic rhinitis, and specifically relates to a preparation method and application of a mesenchymal stem cell exosome rhinitis spray. Background Art
[0002] Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a non-infectious inflammatory disease that occurs in the nasal mucosa. It refers to the symptoms of hypersecretion, swelling of the nasal mucosa, paroxysmal sneezing and nasal itching that occur in atopic individuals after contact with allergens. Some patients will have related symptoms such as reversible hyposmia and allergic conjunctivitis. A European study showed that allergic rhinitis often begins to develop in childhood or adolescence, with a prevalence of more than 5% in children under 3 years old, about 9% in children aged 6-7 years old, and even higher in children aged 13-14 years old, up to 15%; the prevalence of allergic rhinitis in adults varies from region to region, and the prevalence of allergic rhinitis between regions is about 46%, which has become one of the most common chronic health problems in the world. It has a certain impact on patients' sleep, learning efficiency, work productivity and social life, and is also one of the important causes of psychological diseases such as anxiety and depression in patients, while adding to the economic burden on the country and individuals.
[0003] At present, the main methods for treating allergic rhinitis include drug therapy, physical therapy, surgical treatment and lifestyle adjustment. In terms of drug therapy, nasal spray hormones, oral Chinese patent medicines, mucus promoters and antibiotics are often used to reduce inflammation, promote secretion discharge and relieve symptoms. Physical therapy includes massage, hot compress, acupuncture, saline nasal washing and ultrashort wave therapy, etc., which aim to improve nasal ventilation function, promote local blood circulation and accelerate the absorption of inflammation. For patients with severe conditions or ineffective drug treatment, surgical treatment such as endoscopic nasal surgery and partial turbinate resection are effective options that can eliminate lesions and restore nasal physiological functions. However, these methods also have certain limitations. Although drug therapy can relieve symptoms, it is often difficult to cure chronic rhinitis and sinusitis, and long-term use may produce drug resistance, and even more severe symptoms may appear after stopping the drug. Although physical therapy is non-invasive and can improve local symptoms, the effect is relatively slow, and the effect may not be obvious for some patients. Although surgical treatment can cure the disease, the operation itself has certain risks and the cost is relatively high. Some patients may not be able to accept it due to physical conditions or economic reasons.
[0004] Mesenchymal stem cell-based therapy is an emerging treatment method in recent years. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) have the potential for self-renewal and multidirectional differentiation, and can repair damaged areas through immune regulation and paracrine effects, creating a good environment for tissue regeneration. Studies have shown that mesenchymal stem cells and related exosome products show good therapeutic potential for allergic rhinitis. Summary of the invention

[0018] Experimental example: Study on the therapeutic effect of exosome nasal spray on mice with allergic rhinitis 1) Establishment of mouse allergic rhinitis model Female 6-8 week old Balb / c mice were housed in an SPF animal room. On Day 0, Day 7 and Day 14, mice were sensitized by intraperitoneal injection of 25 µg of lactalbumin (OVA) and 2 mg of aluminum hydroxide (Al(OH)3) to promote primary sensitization. The control group was intraperitoneally injected with an equal amount of saline. Starting from Day 21, 100 µL of 3% lactalbumin solution was dripped into both sides of the nasal cavity of the mice every day for one week for secondary immunization. The control group was nasally dripped with saline. The scratching and sneezing behaviors of the mice were observed and counted within 10 minutes, and scored according to the behavioral scoring criteria of the rhinitis model. The scoring criteria are as follows: Scratching the nose 1-2 times, sneezing 1-2 times, and runny nose to the nostrils are each scored 1 point; Scratching the nose many times, sneezing 3-10 times, and runny nose beyond the anterior nares were each scored 2 points; Violent scratching of the nose and face, rubbing everywhere, sneezing more than 10 times, and runny nose are each worth 3 points; The scores of each symptom were added together, and a score of 5 or more indicated that the model was successfully established; 2) Therapeutic effect of exosome nasal spray on OVA-induced allergic rhinitis in mice After successful modeling, AR model mice were divided into model blank group (Model), no exosome spray group (N-Exos), positive control group (P-Drug, mometasone furoate nasal spray), low-dose exosome spray group (L-Exos), and high-dose exosome group (H-Exos), with 4 mice in each group; a normal control group (Control) was also set up without any treatment. The blank group was given 20µL of normal saline per nostril, the positive control group was given 20µL of mometasone furoate nasal spray per nostril, and the exosome spray group was given 20µL of exosome spray, among which the exosome concentration in the low-dose group was 1 / 2 of that in the high-dose group; AR mice in each group were given continuous medication for 7 days, and 3% OVA solution was given nasal drops every day to maintain sensitization, and the mice were observed and counted for 10 minutes of behavior on the 8th to 10th day, and the levels of inflammatory factors in the serum of mice in each group were detected; 3) Therapeutic results of exosome nasal spray on OVA-induced allergic rhinitis in mice Female Balb / c mice were sensitized by intraperitoneal injection of OVA for three consecutive weeks. In the fourth week, 3% OVA solution was used for nasal challenge. The behavioral observation and statistical scoring of mice within ten minutes after the last three OVA challenges showed that the number of nose scratching, sneezing and runny nose in the model group mice increased significantly, and the AR score was significantly higher than that in the control group ( p <0.0001, Figure 7 Control vs. Model), and the scoring results showed that the AR model mice were successfully established; After one week of 3% OVA stimulation, the AR model mice were successfully modeled. The nasal cavity of each group of mice was intervened by exosome-free spray, mometasone furoate nasal spray, low-dose exosome spray, and high-dose exosome spray. The behavioral observation statistics on the last two days showed that the low-dose exosome spray, high-dose exosome spray, and mometasone furoate nasal spray groups were able to improve the number of mice scratching their noses and sneezing; compared with mometasone furoate nasal spray, high-dose exosome spray had a better improvement on the symptoms of mice scratching their noses and sneezing ( Figure 7 ); At the same time, the expression levels of allergic inflammatory cytokines in the serum of each group of mice were detected. The results showed that compared with the model group and the group without exosome spray, the IL-2 level in each treatment group was significantly increased ( Figure 8A), IL-4 ( Figure 8 B) IL-17 Figure 8 C) TNF-α ( Figure 8 D) The level in mouse serum was significantly reduced, indicating that mesenchymal stem cell exosomes can inhibit the expression of inflammation in rhinitis mice through immunomodulatory effects, and the expression level of inflammatory factors in the high-dose exosome group is closer to that in the normal group of mice.
[0019] Summary and discussion: Technical advantages of this application: 1. Using bioreactor and tangential flow ultrafiltration system, stem cell exosomes are enriched in large quantities with high purity and controllable concentration, which is convenient for mass production and quality control.
[0020] 2. Use membrane lipid vesicle exosomes with a diameter of 70-170nm (see Figure 2 The exosomes of mesenchymal stem cells are described in the particle size analysis chart and the identification section (Figure 2). They contain a variety of biologically active RNA, miRNA, DNA and proteins, and have similar properties to mesenchymal stem cells. In addition, the exosomes of mesenchymal stem cells are tiny in size, can be loaded with lipids, proteins, nucleic acids and other signal substances, are easy to absorb and release, and have no immunogenicity.
[0021] 3. A thermosensitive gel carrier is used to combine mesenchymal stem cell exosomes so that the product can be evenly sprayed in the nasal cavity. The temperature of the nasal cavity is used to quickly adsorb the gel in the nasal cavity, allowing the exosomes to reside and continuously release. This solution solves the problem of difficulty in applying the drug to the nasal cavity and difficulty in retaining the drug.
[0022] 4. The technology of encapsulating exosomes with thermosensitive gel is used, and the temperature of the nasal cavity is used to transform the spray from a flowing liquid to a gel, which can make the exosomes more evenly distributed and more active.
[0023] 5. The water-based spray gel has good affinity; the product is mild and non-irritating, and the application of medicine is convenient and hygienic without any foreign body sensation.
