Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of wound repair, and in particular to umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell exosomes and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Human mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) are a type of stem cells that have a fibroblast-like morphology (spindle-shaped and fusiform) after adherent culture, can self-renew in vitro, and have the ability to differentiate into osteoblasts, adipocytes, and chondrocytes. Mesenchymal stem cells can not only differentiate into a variety of human cells, including adipocytes, osteoblasts, chondrocytes, muscle cells, tendon cells, etc.; at the same time, they can also be induced to differentiate into hepatocytes, pancreatic β cells, nerve cells, etc. Human mesenchymal stem cells can be isolated from a variety of human tissues (such as bone marrow, umbilical cord, placenta, fat, umbilical cord blood, etc.), and can also be obtained through differentiation or transdifferentiation; mesenchymal stem cells from different sources differ in gene expression and differentiation ability. In terms of application, it has been proven that mesenchymal stem cells are very safe and are the most widely used stem cells in clinical practice.

[0003] The topical use of mesenchymal stem cells to treat refractory wounds and skin injuries can greatly reduce their uncontrollability and tumorigenicity in vivo, but mesenchymal stem cells have a certain survival time in vitro, and cells will undergo apoptosis after 24 hours, affecting the therapeutic effect. Moreover, the skin surface environment is extremely unstable, and it is difficult for cells to survive for a long time. Dead cells form new pollutants, affecting the therapeutic effect. The exosomes of mesenchymal stem cells exist in the culture medium collected after the culture of mesenchymal stem cells, which contain a variety of cytokines, such as stem cell factor (SCF), fibroblast growth factor (FGF), endothelial growth factor (VEGF), epidermal growth factor (EGF), hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), insulin-like growth factor 1-like growth factor (IGF), granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF), interleukin (IL), anti-inflammatory factors, transforming growth factor, etc. The exosomes of MSC have strong repair, regeneration and protection effects in the cardiovascular system, traumatic brain injury, musculoskeletal injury, liver injury, kidney injury, etc. However, in the field of wound repair or skin regeneration, the functional proteins contained therein are required to promote cell proliferation, regeneration and differentiation. Since the functional proteins in exosomes are often determined by the cells that are secreted by them, it is necessary to regulate the differential expression of the functional protein components in exosomes to meet the needs of wound repair or skin regeneration.

[0077] The difference from Example 1 is that during the culture in the second culture medium, the 2% O2 environment is replaced by a 21% (v / v) O2 environment (normoxic conditions), and the other culture conditions and culture process are the same as those in Example 1.

[0078] Comparative Example 4

[0079] The difference from Example 1 is that stromal cell-derived factor-1α is not added to the third culture medium. Other culture conditions and culture processes are the same as those in Example 1.

[0080] Comparative Example 5

[0081] The difference from Example 1 is that during the culture in the third culture medium, pulse ultrasonic treatment is performed. Other culture conditions and culture processes are the same as those in Example 1.

[0082] Experimental Example 1

[0083] The human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell exosomes obtained in Examples 1 to 3 and Comparative Examples 1 to 5 were tested by ELISA to determine the concentrations of EGF, HGF, IGF-1, PDGF, KGF and HB-EGF, TGF-β1, FGF-2, and VEGF-A cytokines. The ELISA kit was purchased from Shanghai Hengyuan Biotechnology Co., Ltd., and the test was performed according to the instructions. The first culture medium, the second culture medium, and the third culture medium of the control group were DMEM / F12 basal culture medium, and hypoxic culture and pulsed ultrasonic treatment were not performed during the culture process. The measured data were normalized to 1 with the concentration in the control culture medium. The data of the embodiment group were displayed as relative multiples. Three groups were repeated in each group, and the average was taken. The results are shown in Table 1.

[0084] Table 1 Relative expression of cytokines in exosomes of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells in different groups

[0085]

[0086]

[0087] EGF, HGF, IGF-1, PDGF, KGF, HB-EGF, TGF-β1, FGF-2, VEGF-A are respectively: epidermal growth factor, hepatocyte growth factor, insulin growth factor-1, platelet-derived growth factor, keratinocyte growth factor, heparin-binding epidermal growth factor, human transforming growth factor-β1, fibroblast growth factor-2, vascular endothelial growth factor-A. The above cytokines are all involved in skin wound repair or skin regeneration. As can be seen from Table 1, the relative expression of cytokines in human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell exosomes in Examples 1 to 3 of the present invention increased to varying degrees compared with the control group, while the expression of the above cytokines in Comparative Examples 1 to 5 was increased, but not as significant as that in Examples 1 to 3. It shows that the culture medium and culture conditions of the first culture, the second culture, and the third culture have a positive regulatory effect on the expression of EGF, HGF, IGF-1, PDGF, KGF, HB-EGF, TGF-β1, FGF-2, and VEGF-A.

[0088] Experimental Example 2 Animal Experiment

[0089] Experimental animals: SPF grade SD rats (Beijing Weitonglihua Experimental Animal Technology Co., Ltd.), weighing 280-300g, female.

[0090] Reagent preparation: Doxorubicin hydrochloride was prepared into a 2 mg / mL solution with normal saline, and the solution was prepared immediately before use. The exosomes obtained in Example 1 of the present invention were dissolved in normal saline to obtain an exosome solution with a concentration of 50 μg / mL.

[0091] A rat model of refractory burn wounds was established: the rats were anesthetized by intraperitoneal injection of 0.5 mL of 3% sodium pentobarbital, and the backs of the rats were depilated; a wound was made on the midline of the back of the rats; the wound was exposed to 95°C for 30 s using a scald mold (aluminum block) with a diameter of 2 cm, and 60 μL of doxorubicin hydrochloride (2 mg / mL) was injected subcutaneously 0.2 cm from the edges of the wound; the scab on the back of the rats was removed on the 28th day after the operation to obtain a rat model of refractory burn wounds.

[0092] The model rats were randomly divided into 9 groups, 3 in each group, and the solutions containing growth factors prepared by the compositions of Examples 1 to 3 and Comparative Examples 1 to 5 were injected into the rats at 5 mm from the edge of the wound, 300 μL each time, and the control group was injected with an equal amount of normal saline. After the operation, the rats were covered with sterile gauze and bandaged with an elastic bandage of appropriate tightness, and the above operation was repeated every 4 days. At 0, 4, 8, 12, and 16 days of drug treatment, digital cameras were used to take pictures, record the wound conditions of the rats, and digital image analysis software was used to analyze the wound area and calculate the healing rate. Wound healing rate = (original wound area-unhealed wound area) / original wound area. The wound healing rates of the rats in each group at 4, 8, 12, and 16 days after drug treatment are shown in Table 2.

[0093] Table 2 Wound healing rates of rats in each group at 4, 8, 12 and 16 days

[0094]

[0095] Table 2 shows the wound repair of rats after each group of experiments. As shown in Table 2, after the exosome solution provided in Examples 1 to 3 was injected into the wound of rats, the wound healing rate of rats was significantly higher than that of Comparative Examples 1 to 5 and the control group, indicating that the exosomes provided in Examples 1 to 3 can effectively repair the wounds of model rats, suggesting that the exosomes provided in Examples 1 to 3 have better wound repair function.

[0096] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present invention.
