Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of liposome preparation, and in particular to a preparation method, product and application of calixarene engineered liposome. Background Art

[0002] Bacterial biofilm is a three-dimensional structured group composed of bacterial cells and their secreted extracellular polymers (EPS). Compared with planktonic bacteria, bacteria in biofilms have a specific microenvironment, including weak acidity, hypoxia, adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and enzyme overexpression ( Nat. Rev. Microbiol. 2020, 18, 571–586; Biomacromolecules 2023, 24, 1003−1013). This makes the bacteria in the biofilm 1,000-fold more resistant to antibiotics ( Adv. Mater. 2023, 2301623). Therefore, developing methods to combat bacterial biofilm infections is an important area of ​​research.

[0003] Liposomes are called "artificial biofilms" and show great potential for drug delivery. However, there are many challenges when using traditional liposomes as antibiotic delivery systems to combat bacterial biofilm infections, including low biofilm penetration efficiency and difficulty in achieving specific release of antibiotics. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a highly effective anti-bacterial biofilm liposome to combat bacterial biofilm infections. Summary of the invention

[0004] Based on the above content, the present invention provides a preparation method, product and application of calixarene engineered liposomes.

[0005] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following solutions:

[0006] One of the technical solutions of the present invention is a method for preparing calixarene engineered liposomes, comprising the following steps:

[0008] The membrane material is 1,2-dipalmitoyl- s - at least one of glycerol-3-phosphorylcholine, LA-phosphoryl-DL-glycerol palmitoyl sodium, 1,2-dioleoyl-3-trimethylpropylammonium chloride, and distearoylphosphatidylethanolamine-polyethylene glycol 2000;

[0009] The structural formula of the guanidinocalixarene is .

[0010] The second technical solution of the present invention is a calixarene engineered liposome prepared according to the above-mentioned preparation method.

[0013] A fifth technical solution of the present invention is a method for preparing the above-mentioned drug for resisting bacterial biofilm infection, comprising mixing and shaking the calixarene engineered liposome with the antibiotic to obtain the drug for resisting bacterial biofilm infection.

[0014] The present invention discloses the following technical effects:

[0015] The present invention proposes a method for preparing a highly effective anti-bacterial biofilm calixarene engineered liposome, that is, preparing a calixarene engineered liposome (Lipo / GA) by embedding an amphiphilic guanidinocalixarene (GA) into a liposome bilayer membrane. Subsequently, an antibiotic (cefazolin sodium (CFZ)) is loaded through host-guest interaction to generate a drug (Lipo / GA / CFZ) for anti-bacterial biofilm infection. Since GA has an ATP-responsive drug release function, Lipo / GA / CFZ can achieve site-specific controlled release of antibiotics. Lipo / GA / CFZ can not only destroy the mature biofilm formed by the Gram-positive bacterium Staphylococcus aureus, but also enhance the bactericidal effect of antibiotics on biofilm-related drug resistance. The present invention provides an effective method for constructing hybrid macrocyclic engineered liposomes, broadens the application potential of liposomes in anti-bacterial biofilm infection, and provides a new strategy for reducing antibiotic resistance.

[0060] The technical solutions provided by the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the embodiments, but they should not be construed as limiting the protection scope of the present invention.

[0061] Example 1

[0062] Weigh 1,2-dipalmitoyl- s 13.16 mg of 3-glycerol-3-phosphorylcholine (DPPC), 2.96 mg of distearoylphosphatidylethanolamine-polyethylene glycol 2000 (DSPE-MPEG2000), and 3.88 mg of GA were dissolved in 4 ml of methanol / chloroform (v / v=1:1), then vacuum-dried at 50 °C, 10.4 ml of distilled water was added, and ultrasonicated at 80 °C for 5 minutes to obtain Lipo / GA. After Lipo / GA was prepared, 1.0 mg of cefazolin sodium (CFZ) was added and shaken for 5 minutes to obtain Lipo / GA / CFZ.

[0063] Comparative Example 1

[0064] The only difference from Example 1 is that the addition of GA and CFZ is omitted, and the remaining steps and parameters are the same as those of Example 1. Lipo is prepared.

[0065] Comparative Example 2

[0066] The only difference from Example 1 is that the addition of CFZ is omitted, and the remaining steps and parameters are the same as those of Example 1. Lipo / GA is prepared.

[0067] Characterization of Lipo / GA / CFZ:

[0068] The morphology of the prepared Lipo / GA / CFZ was characterized by dynamic light scattering (DLS), and Lipo and Lipo / GA were used as controls. Figure 1 As shown in Figure 2, the average hydrated particle sizes of Lipo, Lipo / GA, and Lipo / GA / CFZ are approximately 206 nm, 101 nm, and 108 nm, respectively. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images ( Figure 2 ) showed that Lipo / GA / CFZ, similar to Lipo and Lipo / GA, exhibited spherical morphological characteristics and were hollow vesicle structures.

[0069] Lipo / GA / CFZ responsively releases CFZ in the presence of ATP. The specific test method is as follows:

[0070] 250 μL of Lipo / GA / CFZ was encapsulated in a dialysis membrane (molecular weight cutoff 1000 Da) and immersed in 4750 μL of PBS (10 mM), pH 7.4, with or without ATP (2 mM). At designated time intervals (0, 0.5, 1, 2,4, 6, 8, 12, and 24 hours (h)), 100 μL of the solution was removed for subsequent analysis. Subsequently, an equal volume of new PBS was added to maintain a constant volume. Subsequently, the absorbance of the solution was evaluated at a wavelength of 270 nm by UV-visible spectrometer.

[0071] The results are as follows Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 In the equation, "-ATP" indicates an environment without ATP, and "+ATP" indicates an environment with ATP. Figure 3 It can be seen that after 6 h of incubation in the absence of ATP, the release of CFZ in the Lipo / GA / CFZ system was 15%. In contrast, in the presence of ATP, the release of CFZ increased significantly to 25% after the same incubation time. Further extending the incubation time to 24 h, the release of CFZ in the ATP environment increased significantly to 43%. In sharp contrast, in the absence of ATP, the release of CFZ remained at a relatively stable level. These experimental results show that Lipo / GA / CFZ has ATP-responsive drug release capabilities.

[0072] Interaction between Lipo / GA / CFZ and planktonic bacteria:

[0073] In order to explore the interaction between Lipo / GA / CFZ and planktonic bacteria, the red fluorescent dye Nile Red (NR) was first embedded in Lipo / GA / CFZ and Lipo, respectively. The specific method was as follows: NR was dissolved in methanol, added to Lipo / GCA / CFZ or Lipo, ultrasonicated for 5 minutes, and the insoluble matter was removed after centrifugation to obtain the fluorescently labeled complex Lipo / GA / CFZ / NR or Lipo / NR. Subsequently, this complex was co-incubated with planktonic Staphylococcus aureus Xen36, and the bacteria were stained with the green fluorescent dye acridine orange (AO). The incubated samples were observed by confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM), and the results are shown in Figure 2. Figure 4As shown. As a control group, the red fluorescence of Lipo / NR did not show obvious overlap with the green fluorescence of Staphylococcus aureus, suggesting a lack of obvious interaction between Lipo / NR and bacteria. In contrast, the red fluorescence of Lipo / GA / CFZ / NR overlapped with the green fluorescence of bacteria, forming a yellow fluorescence image. In addition, through quantitative analysis, we found that there was a significant co-localization phenomenon between Lipo / GA / CFZ / NR and Staphylococcus aureus, with a Pearson correlation coefficient of up to 0.85, which was much higher than the Pearson correlation coefficient of Lipo / NR of 0.01. It is worth noting that Staphylococcus aureus showed obvious aggregation after contact with Lipo / GA / CFZ / NR, which further confirmed the strong interaction between Lipo / GA / CFZ and bacteria.

[0074] Lipo / GA / CFZ inhibits bacterial biofilm formation:

[0075] The present invention studies the inhibitory effect of Lipo / GA / CFZ on the biofilm formation of Staphylococcus aureus. 8 / mL of bacteria (1 mL) were added to the confocal culture dish, and then the resulting suspension was replaced with a culture medium (2 mL) containing different materials, with concentrations of Lipo (900 µM), CFZ (100 µM), Lipo / GA (900 / 100 µM) or Lipo / GA / CFZ (900 / 100 / 100 µM), PBS as the control group, and cultured at 37 °C for 24 h. Afterwards, the resulting suspension was replaced with 2 mL of culture medium and cultured for another 48 h. Through CLSM imaging, CFZ, Lipo / GA, and Lipo / GA / CFZ can effectively inhibit the formation of biofilms (such as Figure 5 Qualitative analysis of fluorescence intensity showed that the volume of biofilms pretreated with Lipo / GA was significantly lower than that of biofilms treated with Lipo, suggesting that the co-assembly of GA may enhance the ability of liposomes to inhibit biofilm formation (as shown in Figure 2A). Figure 6 CFZ, Lipo / GA, and Lipo / GA / CFZ all showed concentration-dependent biofilm inhibition effects, resulting in 58%, 80%, and 85% reductions in biofilm biomass at 100 µM concentration, respectively, compared with the PBS-treated group (as shown in Figure 2A). Figure 7 as shown).

[0076] Although inhibiting the formation of bacterial biofilms is of great significance in preventing infections, it is usually only taken seriously when mature biofilms cause infections. Therefore, it is particularly important to eliminate mature biofilms when treating infections associated with bacterial biofilms. Subsequently, the present invention studied the effects of Lipo / GA and Lipo / GA / CFZ in eradicating biofilms. The mature biofilms of Staphylococcus aureus were treated with PBS, Lipo (900 µM), CFZ (100 µM), Lipo / GA (900 / 100 µM) or Lipo / GA / CFZ (900 / 100 / 100 µM) for 24 h and then observed using CLSM. 3D CLSM images (such as Figure 8 ) showed that the biofilms treated with PBS, Lipo, and CFZ still maintained a dense and thick structure. In contrast, the bacterial density and thickness of the biofilms were significantly reduced after treatment with Lipo / GA and Lipo / GA / CFZ. Further quantitative analysis showed that ( Fig. 9 As shown in Figure 2 ), Lipo and CFZ had little effect on the biofilm volume, while Lipo / GA and Lipo / GA / CFZ treatments significantly reduced the biofilm volume, and the biofilm volume of the Lipo / GA / CFZ treatment was lower than that of the Lipo / GA treatment (** p < 0.01).

[0077] To further analyze the effects of different treatments on the structure of mature biofilms, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to observe the treated biofilms. Fig.10 It was shown that in the biofilm treated with PBS, the bacteria were densely wrapped by EPS. In the biofilm treated with Lipo / GA and Lipo / GA / CFZ, the EPS matrix was almost invisible, and the number of bacteria was significantly reduced after Lipo / GA / CFZ treatment. The morphology of the remaining bacterial cells changed, with irregular boundaries and loss of complete membrane structure. Therefore, Lipo / GA / CFZ not only has the antibacterial activity of CFZ, but also has the biofilm destruction effect of Lipo / GA.

[0078] In order to verify this conclusion, the present invention used crystal violet staining to analyze the residual biomass in the biofilm after different treatments (such as Fig.11 The results showed that free CFZ had almost no ability to disperse mature biofilms, while Lipo / GA showed concentration-dependent biofilm dispersion ability, with a maximum dispersion of 65% of biofilms at a concentration of 100 μM. In contrast, Lipo / GA / CFZ had a higher biofilm dispersion efficiency and was able to remove 76% of S. aureus biofilms, a result consistent with previous speculation.

[0079] In the in vitro experiment, the significant removal effect of Lipo / GA / CFZ on biofilm was encouraging. Subsequently, the present invention further evaluated the ability of Lipo / GA / CFZ to remove Staphylococcus aureus Xen36 biofilm in vivo. The experimental design process is as follows Fig.12 As shown, 100 μL of 1×10 9 / mL of luminescent Staphylococcus aureus Xen36, the bio-optical imaging system was used to record the luminescence intensity and area of ​​the cocci, and the maximum value was reached on the second day after injection, indicating that the subcutaneous infection model of mice was successfully established. The mice were randomly divided into five groups. Starting from the second day after infection, the mice were given in situ subcutaneous injections of the corresponding materials every other day: (i) 100 μL PBS, (ii) 100 μL Lipo, (iii) 100 μL CFZ, (iv) 100 μL Lipo / GA, (v) 100 μL Lipo / GA / CFZ, and the equivalent concentrations of GA and CFZ were both 100 µM. The results showed that the bioluminescence intensity of the infection site of mice in the PBS and Lipo treatment groups first increased and then gradually weakened. The CFZ, Lipo / GA and Lipo / GA / CFZ treatment groups significantly reduced the bioluminescence intensity of the infection site (such as Fig.13 Quantitative analysis results showed that after 7 days of Lipo / GA / CFZ treatment, the bioluminescence intensity decreased by 95%, which was 35% more than that of the Lipo / GA treatment group (as shown in Fig.14 At the same time, the analysis of relative infection area (such as Fig.15 As shown in Figure 2, after treatment with PBS, Lipo, CFZ, or Lipo / GA, the infected area of ​​mice became 290%, 238%, 47%, and 47% of the original area, respectively, on day 7. However, the infected area of ​​the Lipo / GA / CFZ-treated group was reduced to 0.2%, showing a higher therapeutic effect (as shown in Figure 2). Fig.16 In addition, the viable bacteria counts at the subcutaneous infection sites of mice in different treatment groups were measured (as shown in Fig.17 The results (shown in Figure 2) showed that the CFUs in the Lipo / GA / CFZ-treated group were reduced most significantly, with a 3.6-log reduction compared with the PBS-treated group. This indicates that Lipo / GA / CFZ has excellent biofilm removal and bactericidal abilities in vivo.

[0080] The present invention develops an ATP-responsive calixarene engineered liposome (Lipo / GA), which aims to inhibit the formation of bacterial biofilms and eradicate mature biofilms that have been formed by bacteria. By encapsulating the antibiotic (CFZ) in Lipo / GA and utilizing the overexpression of ATP in the biofilm microenvironment, the precise release of the antibiotic is achieved. In a mouse model of Staphylococcus aureus infection, Lipo / GA / CFZ exhibited a significant synergistic therapeutic effect. Guanidino-modified calixarene endows liposomes with the ability to clear biofilms, while achieving site-specific release of antibiotics through an ATP-responsive mechanism, providing a general strategy for reducing drug resistance. In addition, the design of amphiphilic macrocyclic supramolecules as liposome materials provides a potential improvement approach for liposome-based biofilm delivery systems.

[0081] The embodiments described above are only descriptions of the preferred modes of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Without departing from the design spirit of the present invention, various modifications and improvements made to the technical solutions of the present invention by ordinary technicians in this field should all fall within the protection scope determined by the claims of the present invention.
