Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of biomedicine, and specifically relates to a nanozyme for targeted relief of chemotherapy cardiotoxicity, and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] The anthracycline drug doxorubicin is currently the main component of clinical anti-cancer treatment. However, earlier studies have pointed out that anthracycline chemotherapy drugs can cause heart-related side effects, including arrhythmia and cardiomyopathy, which has become a limiting factor in their clinical application. How to alleviate chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity and explore effective intervention measures is urgent.
[0003] There are many hypotheses for anthracycline-induced cardiac toxicity, including changes in cell death pathways and mitochondrial dysfunction. Oxidative stress is an important mechanism for anthracycline-induced cell death. Nanozymes are a class of mimetic enzymes that have both the unique properties of nanomaterials and catalytic functions. Compared with nanomaterials and natural enzymes, they have many advantages and are widely used in clinical practice. In particular, nanozymes that mimic enzymes with redox activity are mainly involved in the regulation of ROS in vivo and in cells. Whether their ROS-inhibiting effect can be used to alleviate chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity and how to provide their targeting in the heart requires further research and exploration.

[0134] (II) Detection of enzyme activity and free radical scavenging ability of Au-Ru nanozyme (TBMzyme nanozyme)
[0135] Taking the Au-Ru nanozyme prepared in Example 1 as an example, the enzyme activity and free radical scavenging ability were tested; at the same time, in order to compare with the Au-Ru nanozyme prepared by the present invention, the present invention also prepared Au-Ru nanozyme, Au-Fe nanozyme, Au-Mn nanozyme, Au-Cu nanozyme, Ru-Fe nanozyme, Mn-Fe nanozyme, Fe-Cu nanozyme, Cu-Mn nanozyme, Ru-Mn nanozyme, and Ru-Cu nanozyme; wherein the preparation methods of Au-Ru nanozyme, Au-Fe nanozyme, Au-Mn nanozyme, Au-Cu nanozyme, Ru-Fe nanozyme, Mn-Fe nanozyme, Fe-Cu nanozyme, Cu-Mn nanozyme, Ru-Mn nanozyme, and Ru-Cu nanozyme are basically the same as those in Example 1, except that: HAuCl4 and ruthenium metal salt in step (1) are replaced by metal salts corresponding to the metal elements in the nanozyme, respectively.
[0136] 1. Detection of CAT enzyme activity of Au-Ru nanozyme:
[0137] CAT enzyme, also known as catalase, can decompose H2O2 to produce O2 and water. The method for detecting CAT enzyme activity is as follows: the nanozyme is prepared into a 1 mg / mL aqueous solution and dispersed in a volume of 200 ul into a 10 mL aqueous solution containing 0.1 mM hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), and the generation of O2 is tested using a dissolved oxygen instrument.
[0138] CAT enzyme activity test results Fig. 9 As shown in A.
[0139] Depend on Fig. 9 As shown in Figure A, the CAT enzyme activity of Au-Ru nanozyme is the strongest.
[0140] 2. Detection of SOD enzyme activity of Au-Ru nanozyme:
[0141] SOD enzyme, also known as superoxide dismutase, can dismutate superoxide anions to produce H2O2 and H2O. The xanthine oxidase method was used to determine the SOD mimetic enzyme activity of the sample. The specific operation was as follows: the prepared nanoenzyme solution (0.0015625-0.1 mg / mL) was added to a 96-well plate in a volume of 30 μL, followed by the addition of xanthine, pH 7.4 phosphate buffer, cytochrome C, xanthine oxidase working solution and water. Use an enzyme reader to measure the absorbance of each well at 450 nm 1 minute before and after the addition, and calculate the inhibition percentage. The test results are as follows: Fig. 9 As shown in B
[0142] Depend on Fig. 9 As shown in Figure B, the SOD mimetic enzyme activity of RuCu nanozyme is the highest, while the SOD enzyme activity of Au-Ru nanozyme is relatively low.
[0143] 3. Detection of ABTS free radical scavenging activity of Au-Ru nanozymes:
[0144] ABTS can generate a blue-green ABTS free radical with a stable structure after oxidation, and the ABTS free radical has a maximum absorption peak at 735nm. After ABTS reacts with an oxidant, a blue-green ABTS cation free radical (ABTS·+) is generated, which produces a characteristic absorption peak at a wavelength of 734nm. When antioxidants are present, the generation of ABTS·+ will be inhibited, causing the absorption peak at 735nm to decrease, and the degree of decrease in its absorption peak is proportional to the degree of free radical scavenging. Therefore, the present invention uses the ABTS method to detect the free radical scavenging activity of Au-Ru nanozyme. The specific experimental operation is: first, the ABTS solution (7mM) is incubated with potassium persulfate (2.45mM) 5 overnight to activate the ABTS free radical. Add bimetallic nanozymes (Au-Ru nanozyme, Au-Fe nanozyme, Au-Mn nanozyme, Au-Cu nanozyme, Ru-Fe nanozyme, Mn-Fe nanozyme, Fe-Cu nanozyme, Cu-Mn nanozyme, Ru-Mn nanozyme, Ru-Cu nanozyme) with a final concentration of (1.5625-100 μg / mL) to the ABTS free radical solution. Within 6 minutes, measure the time course absorbance of ABTS free radicals at 734 nm. ABTS clearance percentage = (A0-Asample) / A0*100%. A0 is the absorbance of ABTS at 520 nm when no sample is added; Asample is the absorbance of ABTS at 520 nm after adding the sample. The test results are as follows: Fig. 9 As shown in C.
[0145] Depend on Fig. 9 As shown in Figure C, AuRu nanozyme exhibits the highest ability to scavenge ABTS free radicals.
[0146] 4. Detection of DPPH free radical scavenging activity of Au-Ru nanozyme:
[0147] DPPH is a stable free radical that is easily soluble in polar solvents such as methanol and ethanol, and has a maximum absorption peak at 520nm. When an antioxidant is added, DPPH will undergo a fading reaction. The specific operation of the DPPH free radical scavenging activity assay is as follows: dissolve DPPH in anhydrous ethanol and store it away from light, then mix the prepared DPPH solution with different concentrations of bimetallic nanozymes (Au-Ru nanozyme, Au-Fe nanozyme, Au-Mn nanozyme, Au-Cu nanozyme, Ru-Fe nanozyme, Mn-Fe nanozyme, Fe-Cu nanozyme, Cu-Mn nanozyme, Ru-Mn nanozyme, Ru-Cu nanozyme) at (1.5625~100μg / mL). Incubate in the dark at 37°C for 30 minutes, then use an enzyme reader to record the absorbance at 520nm and calculate the scavenged DPPH. The test results are as follows: Fig. 9 As shown in D.
[0148] Depend on Fig. 9 As shown in Figure 5, RuFe exhibits the strongest ability to scavenge DPPH free radicals, while AuRu also has a strong ability to scavenge DPPH free radicals.
[0149] 5. Radar chart analysis of multiple enzyme activities of metal nanozymes
[0150] The enzyme activity and free radical scavenging ability test data of Au-Ru nanozyme, Au-Fe nanozyme, Au-Mn nanozyme, Au-Cu nanozyme, Ru-Fe nanozyme, Mn-Fe nanozyme, Fe-Cu nanozyme, Cu-Mn nanozyme, Ru-Mn nanozyme and Ru-Cu nanozyme were analyzed by multi-type enzyme activity radar chart, and the results are as follows Fig.10 shown.
[0151] Depend on Fig.10 It can be seen that AuRu bimetallic nanozyme has the best synergistic antioxidant activity.
[0152] The surface configuration of the catalytic process of AuRu nanozyme catalyzing the decomposition of H2O is as follows: Fig.11 shown.
[0153] Depend on Fig.11It can be seen that the decomposition of H2O catalyzed by AuRu nanozymes mainly includes two processes: first, the adsorption of the initial OH-; second, the desorption of O2. The energy barrier for O2 desorption is very high, indicating that the O2 produced during the decomposition process on the pure alloy surface easily oxidizes the alloy. This shows that the alloy has a strong reducibility, making the initial generation of O2 challenging. In the actual reaction, small alloy particles are oxidized by H2O2. Only when they are oxidized to a certain extent will their reducibility weaken, making the generation of O2 easier. The energy barrier for the initial OH-adsorption is not particularly high (even lower for the second OH-adsorption). Electron and proton coupling reactions may also directly produce H2O through the Eley-Rideal mechanism.
[0154] The above studies show that AuRu nanozymes have the potential to eliminate reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS). Therefore, AuRu nanozymes were selected as experimental drugs and their antioxidant effects were further verified in vivo.
[0155] (III) Detection of enzyme activity and free radical scavenging ability of ATBMzyme nanozymes
[0156] Taking the ATBMzyme nanozyme prepared in Example 7 as an example, the enzyme activity and free radical scavenging ability were tested.
[0157] 1. Detection of SOD enzyme activity of ATBMzyme nanozyme:
[0158] SOD enzyme, also known as superoxide dismutase, can dismutate superoxide anions to produce H2O2 and H2O. The xanthine oxidase method was used to determine the SOD mimetic enzyme activity of the sample. The specific operation was as follows: the prepared nanoenzyme solution (0.0015625-0.1 mg / mL) was added to a 96-well plate in a volume of 30 μL, followed by the addition of xanthine, pH 7.4 phosphate buffer, cytochrome C, xanthine oxidase working solution and water. Use an enzyme reader to measure the absorbance of each well at 450 nm 1 minute before and after the addition, and calculate the inhibition percentage. The test results are as follows: Fig.12 As shown in A and B
[0159] Depend on Fig.12As shown in Figures A and B, TBMzyme and ATBMzyme exhibited superoxide dismutase (SOD) mimetic enzyme activity in a phosphate buffer at pH 7.4, and ATBMzyme had the highest SOD enzyme activity, which was quantitatively determined to be approximately 913U / mg by theoretical calculation. The SOD enzyme activities of BMzyme (0.01644U / mg) and TBMzyme (0.065U / mg) were relatively low. This suggests that the inclusion of ANP components may provide more active sites and enhance antioxidant capacity without affecting the ability of nanozymes to eliminate hydrogen peroxide. Therefore, ATBMzyme can remove O2· - , degrade H2O2, and promote the production of O2.
[0160] 2. CAT enzyme activity detection of ATBMzyme nanozyme:
[0161] CAT enzyme, also known as catalase, can decompose H2O2 to produce O2 and water. The method for detecting CAT enzyme activity is as follows: the nanozyme is prepared into a 1 mg / mL aqueous solution and dispersed in a volume of 200 ul into a 10 mL aqueous solution containing 0.1 mM hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), and the generation of O2 is tested using a dissolved oxygen instrument.
[0162] CAT enzyme activity test results Fig.12 As shown in C.
[0163] Depend on Fig.12 As shown in Figure C, ATBMzyme nanozyme, TBMzyme nanozyme, and BMzyme nanozyme exhibited hydrogen peroxide CAT mimetic enzyme-like activity in phosphate buffer at pH 7.4.
[0164] 3. Detection of ABTS free radical scavenging activity of ATBMzyme nanozymes:
[0165] ABTS can generate a blue-green ABTS free radical with a stable structure after oxidation, and the ABTS free radical has a maximum absorption peak at 735nm. After ABTS reacts with an oxidant, a blue-green ABTS cation free radical (ABTS·+) is generated, which produces a characteristic absorption peak at a wavelength of 734nm. When an antioxidant is present, the generation of ABTS·+ will be inhibited, causing the absorption peak at 735nm to decrease, and the degree of decrease in its absorption peak is proportional to the degree of free radical scavenging. Therefore, the present invention uses the ABTS method to detect the free radical scavenging activity of nanozymes. The specific experimental operation is: first, the ABTS solution (7mM) is incubated with potassium persulfate (2.45mM) overnight to activate the ABTS free radical. The nanozyme with a final concentration of (1.5625-100μg / mL) is added to the ABTS free radical solution. Within 6 minutes, the time course absorbance of the ABTS free radical at 734nm is measured. ABTS removal percentage = (A0-Asample) / A0*100%. A0 is the absorbance of ABTS at 520nm without adding sample; Asample is the absorbance of ABTS at 520nm after adding sample. Fig.12 As shown in D.
[0166] Depend on Fig.12 As shown in Figure D, ATBMzyme nanozyme, TBMzyme nanozyme, and BMzyme nanozyme significantly inhibited the production of ABTS free radicals, and ATBMzyme showed the strongest scavenging effect. This result shows that ATBMzyme nanozyme, TBMzyme nanozyme, and BMzyme nanozyme can be used to treat diseases related to nitrogen free radicals.
[0167] 4. Detection of DPPH free radical scavenging activity of ATBMzyme nanozyme:
[0168] DPPH is a stable free radical that is easily soluble in polar solvents such as methanol and ethanol, and has a maximum absorption peak at 520nm. When an antioxidant is added, DPPH will undergo a fading reaction. The specific operation of the DPPH free radical scavenging activity assay is as follows: dissolve DPPH in anhydrous ethanol, store it away from light, and then mix the prepared DPPH solution with nanozymes of different concentrations. Incubate in the dark at 37°C for 30 minutes, then use an enzyme reader to record its absorbance at 520nm and calculate the scavenged DPPH. The test results are as follows: Fig.12 As shown in E.
[0169] Depend on Fig.12 As shown in Figure E, ATBMzyme nanozyme and TBMzyme nanozyme significantly inhibited the production of DPPH hydroxyl radicals, and ATBMzyme nanozyme showed the strongest scavenging effect.
[0170] The above enzyme activity and free radical scavenging ability experimental results show that ANP and TA play a synergistic role in jointly regulating the enzyme activity of ATBMzyme nanozyme, and play an important role in the enzyme activity of ATBMzyme nanozyme.
[0171] (IV) In vivo distribution study and safety assessment of TBMzyme and ATBMzyme nanozymes:
[0172] 1. Experimental animals:
[0173] Male BALB / C mice aged 8 weeks were obtained from the Institute of Laboratory Animal Science, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences (Beijing, China) and were adapted for feeding for one week before the start of the study. All mice were housed in a temperature-controlled environment with a 12-h light / dark cycle at 22 ± 2 °C and provided with sterile food and drinking water. All experiments involving animals were performed in accordance with the Guide for the Use and Care of Laboratory Animals, and the study was approved by the Sub-center Animal Care and Use Committee of the National Center for Cardiovascular Diseases (FZX-IACUCC-2024005).
[0174] 2. Construction of tumor-bearing mouse model:
[0175] Eight-week-old BALB / c mice were injected subcutaneously with 8×10 6 4T1 cells were injected into the mouse cage, and small round and protruding vacuoles were visible at the site of cell inoculation. The mouse was placed back into the cage, and after 3-5 days, obvious white masses were seen at the injection site, indicating that the tumor-bearing mouse model was successfully established.
[0176] 3. Grouping and treatment of experimental animals
[0177] Eighteen tumor-bearing mice were divided into PBS group, cy5.5-TBMzyme group and cy5.5-ATBMzyme group, with 6 mice in each group.
[0178] 4. Experimental drugs:
[0179] The experimental drugs are: Cy5.5-labeled ATBMzyme nanozyme (cy5.5-ATBMzyme nanozyme) and Cy5.5-labeled TBMzyme (cy5.5-TBMzyme nanozyme).
[0180] Synthesis of cy5.5-ATBMzyme nanozyme: Weigh 10 mg of TBMzyme / ATBMzyme and disperse it in 10 ml of deionized water, add 1 mg of Cy5.5-NHS ester, stir for 2 hours, dialyze and freeze-dry to obtain Cy5.5-labeled ATBMzyme nanozyme. The cy5.5-TBMzyme nanozyme is the same as the cy5.5-ATBMzyme nanozyme. The preparation method of the cy5.5-ATBMzyme nanozyme solution is as follows: weigh an appropriate amount of cy5.5-ATBMzyme nanozyme freeze-dried powder, add an appropriate amount of deionized water, and use a probe to prepare a 5 mg / mL cy5.5-ATBMzyme nanozyme solution. The preparation method of the cy5.5-TBMzyme nanozyme solution is the same as that of the cy5.5-ATBMzyme nanozyme solution.
[0181] 5. Study on the in vivo distribution of TBMzyme and ATBMzyme nanozymes:
[0182] PBS buffer, cy5.5-ATBMzyme nanozyme solution, and cy5.5-TBMzyme nanozyme solution were injected into the PBS group, cy5.5-TBMzyme group, and cy5.5-ATBMzyme group tumor-bearing mice by tail vein injection, respectively, with an injection dose of 10 mg / kg body weight. 24 hours after injection, the heart, liver, spleen, kidney, lung, and tumor tissues of the mice were obtained for immunofluorescence frozen section staining.
[0183] The experimental results are as follows Fig.13 shown.
[0184] Depend on Fig.13 It can be seen that ATBMzyme nanozyme and TBMzyme nanozyme can be detected in cardiac tissue, but relatively less in other tissues, and ATBMzyme nanozyme is distributed more in cardiac tissue than TBMzyme nanozyme; this result shows that both ATBMzyme nanozyme and TBMzyme nanozyme can target cardiac tissue.
[0185] 6. Biosafety assessment of TBMzyme and ATBMzyme nanozymes:
[0186] PBS buffer, cy5.5-ATBMzyme nanozyme solution, and cy5.5-TBMzyme nanozyme solution were injected into the PBS group, cy5.5-TBMzyme group, and cy5.5-ATBMzyme group tumor-bearing mice by tail vein injection, respectively, with an injection dose of 10 mg / kg body weight. The injection was performed once a week for 4 weeks. After 4 weeks, the liver and kidney tissues of the mice were taken for HE staining; at the same time, the blood of the mice was taken by eyeball blood sampling, and the blood samples were centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 10 minutes. Then, serum was collected from the supernatant, and the levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT, elabscience, E-BC-K235-M), aspartate aminotransferase (AST, elabscience, E-BC-K236-M), urea (UREA, elabscience, E-BC-K183-M), and creatinine (CREA, elabscience, E-BC-K188-M) in the serum were evaluated using ELISA kits.
[0187] Among them, the HE staining results of mouse liver and kidney groups are as follows Fig.14 shown.
[0188] Depend on Fig.14 It can be seen that there was no significant difference in the morphology of liver and kidney tissues of tumor-bearing mice in the PBS group, cy5.5-TBMzyme group, and cy5.5-ATBMzyme group.
[0189] The results of the detection of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), urea (UREA) and creatinine (CREA) levels in the serum of tumor-bearing mice were as follows: Fig.15 shown.
[0190] Depend on Fig.15 It can be seen that there was no significant difference in the levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), urea (UREA) and creatinine (CREA) in the serum of tumor-bearing mice among the PBS group, cy5.5-TBMzyme group and cy5.5-ATBMzyme group, indicating that TBMzyme nanozymes and ATBMzyme nanozymes do not affect the liver and kidney functions of mice.
[0191] The above results show that TBMzyme nanozymes and ATBMzyme nanozymes can target cardiac tissue to exert their effects, and that they will not affect the functions of other tissues and have good safety.
[0192] (V) Effects of TBMzyme and ATBMzyme nanozymes on myocardial damage caused by DOX and the killing effect of DOX on tumors:
[0193] 1. Experimental animals:
[0194] Male BALB / C mice aged 8 weeks were obtained from the Institute of Laboratory Animal Science, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences (Beijing, China) and were adapted for feeding for one week before the start of the study. All mice were housed in a temperature-controlled environment with a 12-h light / dark cycle at 22 ± 2 °C and provided with sterile food and drinking water. All experiments involving animals were performed in accordance with the Guide for the Use and Care of Laboratory Animals, and the study was approved by the Sub-center Animal Care and Use Committee of the National Center for Cardiovascular Diseases (FZX-IACUCC-2024005).
[0195] 2. Construction of tumor-bearing mouse model:
[0196] The method for constructing the tumor-bearing mouse model is the same as that in Example 6, which will not be described in detail here. After the tumor-bearing mouse model is successfully constructed, the length and width of the mass are measured with a vernier caliper to calculate the volume of the tumor mass.
[0197] 3. Grouping and treatment of experimental animals
[0198] Twenty-four tumor-bearing mice were divided into Vehicle group, DOX group, DOX+TBMzyme group, and DOX+ATBMzyme group, with 6 mice in each group.
[0199] The tumor-bearing mice in the DOX group, DOX+TBMzyme group, and DOX+ATBMzyme group were injected with DOX (injection dose of 5 mg / kg body weight) through the tail vein, and the mice in the Vehicle group were injected with normal saline through the tail vein once a week for a total of four weeks; moreover, 6 hours before each DOX injection, the tumor-bearing mice in the DOX group, DOX+TBMzyme group, and DOX+ATBMzyme group were injected with normal saline (injection dose of 1 ml / kg body weight), TBMzyme nanozyme solution (injection dose of 10 mg / kg body weight), and ATBMzyme nanozyme solution (injection dose of 15 mg / kg body weight) through the tail vein, respectively, and the mice in the Vehicle group were injected with normal saline through the tail vein at the same time period; wherein, the TBMzyme nanozyme solution and ATBMzyme nanozyme solution used for injection were prepared with water as the solvent, and the concentration was 2.5 mg / mL (the schematic diagram of the medication process of the mice in the DOX group, DOX+TBMzyme group, and DOX+ATBMzyme group is shown in Fig.16 shown).
[0200] 4. Echocardiography of mice:
[0201] Transthoracic echocardiography was performed on the mice in the Vehicle group, DOX group, DOX+TBMzyme group, and DOX+ATBMzyme group using the Visual Sonics Vevo 3000 system (Fuji Visual Sonics, Japan). During the examination, the mice were anesthetized and maintained in an environment of 1-2% isoflurane and 2 liters of 20% oxygen per minute. The left ventricular ejection fraction (EF) and left ventricular fractional shortening (FS) were analyzed using Vevo analysis software (Fuji Visual Sonics, Japan). The test results are shown in Fig.17 shown.
[0202] Depend on Fig.17 It can be seen that DOX significantly weakened the cardiac ejection function of mice, while TBMzyme and ATBMzyme could effectively alleviate the weakening of cardiac function caused by DOX.
[0203] 5. Myocardial enzyme spectrum detection in mice:
[0204] The cardiac injury and heart failure markers LDH, cTNT and CKMB were detected in the mice in the Vehicle group, DOX group, DOX+TBMzyme group and DOX+ATBMzyme group. LDH, cTNT and CKMB were detected using ELISA kits. The ELISA kit for LDH was No. E-EL-M0419c, purchased from Elabscience; the ELISA kit for cTNT was No. E-EL-M1801c, purchased from Elabscience; and the ELISA kit for CKMB was No. E-EL-M0355c, purchased from Elabscience. The test results are shown in Figure 2. Fig.18 shown.
[0205] Depend on Fig.18 It can be seen that the supplementation of TBMzyme and ATBMzyme can effectively alleviate the increase of myocardial enzyme spectrum caused by DOX and reduce myocardial cell damage.
[0206] 6. Effects of TBMzyme and ATBMzyme nanozymes on the tumor killing effect of DOX:
[0207] To study whether ATBMzyme affects the tumor killing effect of DOX, tumor tissues of tumor-bearing mice in the Vehicle group, DOX group, DOX+TBMzyme group, and DOX+ATBMzyme group were collected to observe the changes in tumor tissue size; at the same time, the tumor volume and weight of the four groups of mice were measured and calculated on the first day (recorded as Day 0) and the 24th day (recorded as Day 24) after DOX injection. Fig.19shown.
[0208] Depend on Fig.19 It can be seen that compared with the DOX group, there was no difference in the size of tumor tissue in the DOX+TBMzyme group and the DOX+ATBMzyme group, while the tumor volume of these three groups was significantly smaller than that of the Vehicle group, indicating that nanozymes did not affect the tumor size after DOX treatment. This result shows that ATBMzyme does not affect the killing effect of DOX on tumors.
