Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of targeted drug delivery preparations, and in particular to sonodynamic targeted drug-loaded nanoparticles and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Nanoscale and structured drug preparations play an important role in cancer treatment, and various nanoformulations have been designed as drug delivery platforms for cancer chemotherapy. Hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks (HOFs) are an emerging and attractive class of highly crystalline porous materials with excellent biocompatibility, rich chemical functions, and adjustable porosity. Their metal-free properties and reversible bonding methods, which are different from other porous materials, give them unique advantages in the fields of biotechnology and biomedicine. However, how to safely and effectively deliver drugs to tumor sites has become an urgent problem to be solved.
[0003] In related studies, the selectivity for cancer cells can be improved by combining light, sound, magnetism and active targeting. However, the tissue penetration of near-infrared light in photodynamic therapy (PDT) is poor (about 1 to 5 cm), and it is only suitable for the treatment of superficial tumors. Radiodynamic therapy (RDT) has strong penetration ability, but ionizing radiation causes greater damage to normal tissues. In contrast, ultrasound, as a mechanical wave with a frequency beyond human hearing (>20kHz), can penetrate deep soft tissues up to 10 cm due to its unique advantage of minimal scattering in tissues, and accurately reach the tumor site to avoid damaging normal tissues. Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) is a non-invasive treatment method using ultrasound. It has received increasing attention in recent years. Its mechanism is to produce toxic reactive oxygen species (ROS, 1 O2,·OH) is used for cell apoptosis and necrosis. Therefore, compared with PDT and RDT, SDT has greater clinical translation value, but at present, the targeting of sonosensitizers in SDT in tumor cells is still not strong enough, making it difficult to achieve precise treatment. At the same time, there are also shortcomings such as side effects caused by premature drug leakage and poor anti-tumor effect. Summary of the invention

The particle size of LHRH@DM@HOF-1 was tested in a simulated physiological environment (10% FBS + pH7.4 PBS at 37°C) and a simulated physiological environment (pH7.4 PBS at 37°C) for 7 days.

[0130] The FeTCPPCl in Example 1, the HOF-1 in Comparative Example 1, and the LHRH@HOF-1 in Comparative Example 2 were subjected to FT-IR spectrum analysis using SHIMADZU IRTRACER-100, and the FT-IR spectra of the FeTCPPCl in Example 1, the HOF-1 in Comparative Example 1, and the LHRH@HOF-1 in Comparative Example 2 were obtained as shown in FIG.

[0131] The FeTCPPCl and LHRH@DM@HOF-1 in Example 1, the HOF-1 in Comparative Example 1, and the LHRH@HOF-1 in Comparative Example 2 were subjected to XRD detection using Malvern Panalytical Aeris, and the XRD spectra of the FeTCPPCl and LHRH@DM@HOF-1 in Example 1, the HOF-1 in Comparative Example 1, and the LHRH@HOF-1 in Comparative Example 2 were obtained as shown in FIG.

[0134] (ii) Characterization of the sonodynamic properties of the porous carrier (HOF-1) of comparative example 1.
[0135] The energy band gaps of FeTCPPCl and HOF-1 in Comparative Example 1 were measured: 5 mg of HOF-1 and FeTCPPCl were dissolved in DMF, and UV-vis DRS was used to test the UV-visible diffuse reflectance spectra of the samples. The Tauc plot method was used to calculate Eg, and VB-XPS was used to measure the valence band position (Ev) of HOF, and the band gap curves of FeTCPPCl and HOF-1 were obtained as shown in the figure below: Fig.10 As shown; the energy band diagram of HOF-1 is shown Fig.11 As shown. Fig.10 and Fig.11It can be seen that the calculated band gap is about 2.57 eV between the valence band (2.08 V) and the conduction band (−0.49 V), indicating that HOF-1 can achieve electronic excitation under US irradiation to generate ROS.
[0136] Methylene blue (MB) and 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran (DPBF) were used as probes to detect ·OH and 1 Production of O2.
[0137] MB DMSO solution (0.1 mg / mL) and HOF-1 (50 μg / mL) PBS solution were mixed and hydrogen peroxide was added. They were placed under US at different time intervals (0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 min) to detect ·OH. The degradation of MB under different conditions (MB+US, MB+HOF-1, MB+HOF-1+US and MB+HOF-1+US+H2O2) was observed. The degradation of MB by HOF-1 was obtained as shown in Figure 2. Fig.12 As shown, (a) is the curve of the absorbance of MB changing with wavelength at different time intervals, and (b) is the curve of the absorbance of MB changing with time under different conditions. Fig.12 It can be seen that when the MB solution containing HOF-1 was exposed to US, the absorbance peak at 668 nm in the UV–visible spectrum decreased over time, indicating that the ·OH produced by HOF-1 induced by US oxidized MB into a colorless solution. In addition, the addition of H2O2 resulted in the generation of a large amount of ·OH, which greatly reduced the peak intensity.
[0138] A DMSO solution of DPBF (100 μg / mL) was mixed with a PBS solution of HOF-1 (50 μg / mL), and the mixture was sonicated (1 W / cm2) at different time intervals (0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 min). 2 , 1.0MHz, 50% duty cycle), using the characteristic peak detection of DPBF at 420nm 1 The appearance of O2 was observed, and the degradation of DPBF under different conditions (DPBF+US, DPBF+HOF-1 and DPBF+HOF-1+U) was observed. The degradation of DPBF by HOF-1 was obtained as follows: Fig.13 As shown, (a) is the curve of the absorbance of DPBF changing with wavelength at different time intervals, and (b) is the curve of the absorbance of DPBF changing with time under different conditions. Fig.13 It can be seen that the solution containing DPBF and HOF-1 was exposed to US to detect 1 As the exposure time of US increased, the absorption peak of DPBF at 410 nm in the UV-visible spectrum gradually decreased, indicating that the US-induced HOF-1 produced 1O2 oxidized DPBF to colorless 1,2-dibenzoylbenzene over time, whereas negligible DPBF degradation was observed in the control groups including the US group and the HOF-1-only group.
[0139] Electron spin resonance spectroscopy (ESR) of free radicals: 2 mg of FeTCPPCl and HOF-1 were dissolved in 1 mL of DMF, H2O2 (0.1 mM, 1000 μL) and capture agents DMPO (0.02 M, 100 μL) and TEMP (0.1 M, 50 μL) were added, and the mixture was exposed to ultrasound (1 W / cm 2 , 1.0 MHz, 50% duty cycle), incubated once every 3 minutes, for a total of three incubations, the ESR spectra of FeTCPPCl and HOF-1 were obtained as shown in Fig.14 As shown, (a) is the ESR spectrum of FeTCPPCl and HOF-1 in TEMP, and (b) is the ESR spectrum of FeTCPPCl and HOF-1 in DMPO. Fig.14 It can be seen that ESR detects OH and 1 The generation of O2 was measured by using 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrrolidine-N-oxide (DMPO) and 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine (TEMP) as scavengers to measure ·OH and 1 O2, after FeTCPPCl was prepared into HOF-1, the ROS generation ability was enhanced.
[0140] The mechanism of HOF-1 producing ROS under ultrasound Fig.15 As shown, from Fig.15 It can be seen that at US (1.0 MHz, 0.58 W cm -2 , 2 min, 50% duty cycle), HOF-1 changes from the singlet ground state S0 to the excited singlet state, and then rapidly decays to the lowest energy level S1 of the first excited singlet state through non-radiative relaxation. After the molecule changes to the first excited triplet state T1 through the intersystem crossing process (ISC), HOF-1 relaxes to S0 mainly through phosphorescence and energy transfer. This process is called 1 O2 quenching process of O2 generation.
[0141] HOF-1 phosphorescence emission detection: FeTCPPCl and HOF-1 were dispersed in DMF at a concentration of 20 mM, excited by a 415 nm xenon lamp at 78 K, and the phosphorescence emission was tested in the range of 800-1200 nm. The phosphorescence intensity of FeTCPPCl and HOF-1 was obtained as shown in the figure. Fig.16 As shown. Fig.16It can be seen that the phosphorescence intensity of HOF-1 is 6.3% lower than that of FeTCPPCl. The decrease in phosphorescence intensity is conducive to transferring more energy to the O2 quenching process, thereby enhancing 1 Production of O2.
[0142] (III) In vitro pharmacodynamic experiments of DM@HOF-1, LHRH@DM@HOF-1 in Example 1 and HOF-1 in Comparative Example 1.
[0143] 4T1 cells were plated at 1 × 10 4 The cells were seeded at a density of 100 μg / cm2 in a 24-well plate and allowed to adhere. After FITC was conjugated to HOF-1, DM@HOF-1 and LHRH@DM@HOF-1, the obtained FITC@HOF-1, FITC@DM@HOF-1 and FITC-LHRH@DM@HOF-1 were added to the cell culture medium, incubated with the cells for 24 h, washed three times with ice-cold PBS, fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 30 min, stained with DAPI for 3 min, washed, and mounted with glycerol. The cells were imaged using a confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM, 2-PLUS, Nikon), and the confocal laser images of FITC@HOF-1, FITC@DM@HOF-1 and FITC-LHRH@DM@HOF-1 were obtained as shown in the figure. Fig.17 As shown, (a) is a confocal laser image, and (b) is a flow cytometry analysis diagram. Fig.17 It can be seen that the FITC-LHRH@DM@HOF-1 group exhibited strong fluorescence in 4T1 mouse breast cancer cells compared with FITC@HOF-1 and FITC@DM@HOF-1, proving that FITC-LHRH@DM@HOF-1 has active targeting and is successfully enriched in 4T1 cells.
[0144] 4T1 cells or RAW264.7 cells were seeded in 96-well plates at a density of 1×10 4 The cells were incubated with 100 μL of culture medium for 24 h, and then treated with different concentrations of LHRH@HOF-1. Each group was repeated 3 times. After incubation for 48 h, an MTT-based cytotoxicity assay was performed to obtain the cytotoxicity of 4T1 cells and RAW264.7 cells in the range of 0 to 100 μg mL LHRH@HOF-1 concentrations. -1 The cell survival data are shown in Table 2. The survival rates of 4T1 cells and RAW264.7 cells were observed in the presence of LHRH@HOF-1 at concentrations ranging from 0 to 100 μg mL -1 The cell survival rate bar graph is as follows Fig.18 As shown, from Fig.18 It can be seen that LHRH@HOF-1 has a high concentration of 0 to 100 μg mL -1It showed no cytotoxicity over a wide concentration range.
[0145] Table 24 T1 cells and RAW264.7 cells in the LHRH@HOF-1 concentration range of 20 to 100 μg mL -1 Cell viability data
[0146] <![CDATA[Concentration (μg·mL -1 )]]> 4T1 cell survival rate (%) RAW264.7 cell survival rate (%) 0 101.58 100.78 20 99.97 100.15 40 100.97 100.84 60 98.64 102.67 80 93.64 95.78 100 92.16 82.16
[0147] 4T1 cancer cells were treated with PBS, DOX (5 μM), LHRH@HOF-1 (20 μM) + DOX (5 μM) + US. The cells were exposed to US environment (0.58 W / cm 2 , 1.0 MHz, 50% duty cycle, 5 minutes). Anti-rabbit CRT antibody (1:1000) and anti-rabbit HMGB1 antibody (1:1000) were used for immunofluorescence staining of cell surface CRT and HMGB1 at 4°C overnight, and Cy3-labeled goat anti-rabbit IgG secondary antibody (1:1000) was used at room temperature for 2 hours. After DAPI staining, CLSM observation was performed to obtain confocal laser images of PBS, DOX, and LHRH@HOF-1+DOX as shown in the figure. Fig.19 As shown. DOX is a representative anthracycline chemotherapy drug that can enhance sonodynamic therapy-induced immunogenic cell death (ICD). The release of extracellular HMGB1 and the exposure of calreticulin (CRT) are key signals for ICD. Fig.19 It can be seen that the LHRH@HOF-1+DOX+US groups all had strong red fluorescence, confirming the exposure of CRT on the 4T1 cell membrane and the release of HMGB1.
[0148] (IV) In vivo pharmacodynamics experiments of LHRH@DM@HOF-1 in Example 1, HOF-1 in Comparative Example 1, and LHRH@HOF-1 in Comparative Example 2.
[0149] In order to evaluate the anti-tumor effect of LHRH@DM@HOF-1-mediated sonodynamic combined with chemotherapeutic drugs (DOX and MET) in tumor-bearing mice, 4T1 cells were cultured at 1×10 4 The density of 50 μg / ml was injected into the left mammary fat pad of BALB / c mice (female BALB / c mice, provided by the Experimental Animal Center of Yanbian University (Yanbian, China)) to establish an orthotopic breast cancer mouse model. After 14 days, the tumor-bearing mice were obtained and randomly divided into 5 groups. The experiments were carried out with different treatment schemes (treatment schemes: blank control (Ⅰ, PBS); comparative application example 2 (Ⅱ, LHRH@HOF-1); comparative application example 1 (Ⅲ, HOF-1+US); comparative application example 3 (Ⅳ, DOX+MET); application example 1 (Ⅴ, LHRH@DM@HOF-1+US)). The schematic diagram of the experimental process is shown in the figure. Fig. 20 As shown, from Fig. 20 It can be seen that after the orthotopic breast cancer mouse model was established, the preparation was injected into the tail vein, US was applied 24 hours later, the treatment was repeated 8 times, and the mice were killed one week later.
[0150] In order to verify the ability of LHRH@DM@HOF-1 to target tumors in vivo, in vivo imaging studies were performed using 4T1 tumor-bearing BALB / c mice. In vivo fluorescence imaging was performed at different time points after intravenous injection using different treatment regimens. Fig.21 As shown, from Fig.21 It can be seen that 6 hours after injection, the fluorescence of LHRH@DM@HOF-1 was observed on the tumor, and the signal at the tumor site continued to increase (Group V). Tumor growth curves and weights of 4T1 tumor-bearing mice under different treatment regimens (data are expressed as mean ± SD, n = 5) are shown in Figure 5. Fig. 22 As shown, (a) is the tumor growth curve, (b) is the tumor weight; the photos of the tumor after different treatment regimens on day 14 are shown Fig.23 As shown. Figures 21 to 23 It can be seen that after 14 days of administration, the tumor growth of Group V was significantly inhibited, while the anticancer effects of Groups I, II and III were not obvious; unlike Group IV, the tumor growth of Group V was significantly inhibited, and the significant therapeutic effect was attributed to the enrichment of LHRH@DM@HOF-1 in the tumor site, which promoted the activation of the drug and the accumulation of ROS generated by the sonodynamic effect.
[0151] H&E staining, CRT staining, HMGB1 staining, PD-L1 staining and TUNEL staining of tumor sections under different treatment regimens (scale bar = 50 μm) Fig.24 As shown. Fig.24 It can be seen that the H&E results showed that the tumor tissue necrosis in the LHRH@DM@HOF-1+US group was aggravated and cell fragments were obvious, while no obvious apoptosis was observed in the dissected tumors in the PBS group; TUNEL detection of tumor tissue further showed that LHRH@DM@HOF-1+US could enhance ICD by reversing immunosuppression; using HMGB1 and CRT as detection indicators to examine the activation of ICD, immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence results showed that HMGB1 release was stronger and CRT expression was enhanced in the LHRH@DM@HOF-1+US treatment group; the PD-L1 level in the DOX+MET treatment group was lower than that in the HOF-1+US group, indicating that MET inhibited the expression of PD-L1 and achieved the reversal of immunosuppression. These results confirm that LHRH@DM@HOF-1 actively targets the tumor site, the sonodynamic effect of HOF-1 enhances chemotherapy-induced ICD, and the activated MET reverses immunosuppression, thereby allowing ICD to continue to work.
[0152] Six hours after the sonodynamic targeted drug-loaded nanoparticles provided by the present invention were injected into 4T1 tumor-bearing BALB / c mice, fluorescence of the sonodynamic targeted drug-loaded nanoparticles was observed on the tumor, and the signal continued to increase; 14 days after administration, tumor growth was significantly inhibited, and the nanoparticles had good targeting and anti-tumor effects.
