Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of polypeptide auxiliary materials, and specifically relates to a polypeptide microneedle dressing and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] The skin is the largest organ in the human body, including the epidermis, dermis and subcutaneous tissue. The structure of the dermis is composed of collagen, elastic fibers and matrix. During the growth of a person, ultraviolet rays can penetrate the skin to reach the dermis, activating matrix metalloproteinases in the body that induce excessive degradation of collagen. At the same time, the sugar ingested by the human body will also react with the collagen in the skin, causing the collagen to decompose. When the synthesis and loss rate of collagen in the skin no longer maintain a balanced state, the skin will lack elasticity and lose support, resulting in wrinkles and other skin aging problems.

[0003] Collagen is an important component in the dermis of human skin, especially type I and type III collagen, which are the main structural proteins in human skin and play a role in maintaining the normal physiological functions of the skin. Therefore, non-toxic and non-irritating collagen is usually injected into the dermis (as a dermal filler) to offset skin wrinkles and restore skin fullness. However, collagen cannot be directly absorbed through the skin barrier, so new drug delivery methods have become a difficult problem to solve.

[0004] Microneedle patches are composed of tiny microneedles and a substrate, can carry active ingredients, act on the skin in a minimally invasive manner, and are an invasive treatment tool for introducing drugs into the skin. Compared with traditional skin dressings, microneedle patches have many advantages: ① The microneedle administration method is simple and easy to operate; ② The microneedle delivers the active ingredients to specific locations under the skin through puncture, thereby improving the transdermal efficiency of the active ingredients. Therefore, it is particularly important to obtain a collagen microneedle to deliver the collagen active ingredient to the subcutaneous tissue to achieve the purpose of promoting skin cell regeneration or proliferation. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to solve the above defects and shortcomings in the prior art, the present invention provides a polypeptide microneedle dressing and a preparation method thereof.

[0006] To solve the above technical problems: The first object of the present invention is to provide a polypeptide microneedle dressing, which comprises a microneedle substrate and a needle array arranged on the microneedle substrate, wherein the needle array is composed of polypeptide microgel and carboxymethyl chitosan hydrogel, and the microneedle substrate is carboxymethyl chitosan hydrogel; preferably, the polypeptide microgel is loaded with active molecules having a positive effect on the skin through heparin molecules; Preferably, the polypeptide is one of animal collagen, recombinant collagen, recombinant human collagen, gelatin or recombinant peptide; more preferably, the polypeptide is recombinant human collagen with a molecular weight of 100-300Kda; most preferably, the recombinant human collagen is recombinant human type I collagen or recombinant human type III collagen.

[0007] The above-mentioned animal-derived collagen is derived from cattle, pigs or fish, the recombinant collagen and recombinant human-derived collagen are derived from mammalian expression systems, plant expression systems, insect expression systems or microbial expression systems; the gelatin is extracted from animal bones, skins, and connective tissues; the recombinant peptides are derived from bacterial expression systems, yeast expression systems, and mammalian cell expression systems; the molecular weights of the animal-derived collagen and recombinant collagen are 50-300 KDa, and the molecular weight of the gelatin is 1-30 Kda.

[0008] Furthermore, the active ingredient is basic fibroblast growth factor, antimicrobial peptide with repair and regeneration function, nicotinamide for treating skin inflammation or lidocaine for local anesthesia.

[0009] The second object of the present invention is to provide a method for preparing a polypeptide microneedle dressing, comprising the following steps: Step 1, preparation of peptide microgel: Adding methacrylic acid to the first polypeptide solution to prepare a methacrylic anhydride first polypeptide solution, collecting the supernatant by centrifugation, diluting, filtering, and dialyzing for 3-4 days, and freeze-drying to obtain a solid sample, and dissolving the solid sample in a photoinitiator to obtain a solution A; As a preferred solution, the first polypeptide is recombinant human type I collagen, methacrylic acid is added to the recombinant human type I collagen solution, and the mixture is reacted for 3-5 hours under magnetic stirring to prepare a methacrylic anhydride recombinant human type I collagen solution (RHCⅠ-MA solution), and then the supernatant is collected by centrifugation, diluted, filtered, dialyzed through a dialysis bag for 3-4 days, and freeze-dried to obtain a sponge-like solid sample of RHCⅠ-MA, and then the freeze-dried RHCⅠ-MA is dissolved in a certain amount of photoinitiator to obtain "solution A"; The second polypeptide solution is treated in the same manner to obtain solution B; wherein the second polypeptide is recombinant human type III collagen; Preferably, the volume ratio of methacrylic acid added to the recombinant human type I / III collagen solution is 1%-15%; more preferably, 3%-10%.

[0010] Solution A and solution B are fully mixed to obtain solution C, and solution C is slowly added dropwise to a mixed solution of paraffin and surfactant span 80 at a rotation speed of 1000-5000 rpm, stirred, irradiated with 405 nm ultraviolet light for 3-10 minutes, centrifuged to remove the supernatant, added PBS buffer and mixed evenly, and the oil phase is removed, and the process is repeated 3-5 times until the oil phase is completely removed, and the precipitate is collected by filtration to obtain the polypeptide microgel; preferably, the volume ratio of liquid paraffin (oil phase) to surfactant span 80 is 10:2; the rotation speed is 2000 rpm, and the particle size of the microgel is inversely proportional to the rotation speed, and the faster the rotation speed, the smaller the particle size of the obtained microgel.

[0011] Step 2, coupling heparin molecules: dissolve heparin sodium salt powder in EDC solution, add the polypeptide microgel prepared in step 1, shake and react for 4-6 hours at room temperature, rinse with PBS buffer solution after the reaction, and obtain polypeptide microgel-heparin molecule complex; preferably, the EDC concentration is 0.1 M-0.3 M. The concentration of EDC affects the cross-linking between polypeptide microgel and heparin molecules. When the concentration of EDC is low, the heparin molecules cannot be fully coupled with the polypeptide microgel, and when the concentration is too high, it will affect the biological activity of the heparin molecules. Therefore, the applicant found that when the concentration of EDC is 0.1M-0.3M, it does not affect the biological activity of the heparin molecules while ensuring that the heparin molecules and polypeptide microgels are fully coupled.

[0012] The active molecule is dissolved in PBS buffer, and the above-mentioned polypeptide microgel-heparin molecule complex is added, and incubated at 4°C for 10-12 h to obtain a polypeptide microgel-heparin molecule-active molecule complex as a needle body; Preferably, the active ingredient is basic fibroblast growth factor, antimicrobial peptides with repair and regeneration functions, nicotinamide for treating skin inflammation, or lidocaine for local anesthesia. The polypeptide microgel is loaded with active molecules through heparin. On the one hand, the polypeptide as an effective ingredient can supplement the deficiency in the skin.

[0013] Step 3: Preparation of microneedle substrate: Carboxymethyl chitosan is dissolved in PBS buffer solution to obtain carboxymethyl chitosan hydrogel, and the polypeptide microgel-heparin molecule-active molecule complex of step three is added and mixed evenly, and bubbles are removed by negative pressure to obtain a microneedle preparation; carboxymethyl chitosan is used to prepare the microneedle substrate, firstly, the introduction of organic solvents is avoided; secondly, the carboxymethyl chitosan hydrogel has good biodegradability and biocompatibility, can be naturally degraded in the body, and its degradation products are harmless to the organism, and it itself will not cause immune response or inflammation.

[0014] The microneedle preparation is injected into the PDMS microneedle negative membrane, and then carboxymethyl chitosan hydrogel is added to form a microneedle base. The mold is dried and the PDMS mold is removed to obtain the polypeptide microneedle dressing.

[0015] Furthermore, the volume ratio of the carboxymethyl chitosan hydrogel to the polypeptide microgel-heparin molecule-active molecule complex is 1:5-5:1.

[0016] Furthermore, the photoinitiator is LAP or irgacure 2959; wherein the mass concentration of LAP is 0.1%-1%, and the mass concentration of irgacure 2959 is 0.1%-5%.

[0017] Further, the volume ratio of solution A to solution B is 1:10-10:1 Beneficial technical effects achieved by the present invention: The present invention provides a polypeptide microneedle dressing and a preparation method thereof, the dressing comprising a microneedle substrate and a needle array arranged on the microneedle substrate, the needle body consisting of polypeptide microgel and carboxymethyl chitosan hydrogel, the microneedle substrate being carboxymethyl chitosan hydrogel; delivering collagen active ingredients to the subcutaneous tissue to achieve the purpose of promoting skin cell regeneration or proliferation. Active molecules having a positive effect on the skin are loaded on the polypeptide microgel through heparin molecules to promote the growth and proliferation of skin basal cells.

[0038] Next, prepare the microneedle preparation filled in the microneedle PDMS mold: (3) Weigh a certain amount of recombinant human type I collagen (RHCⅠ) powder and dissolve it in PBS buffer to prepare a 10% (w / v) recombinant human type I collagen solution. Add 600ul of methacrylic acid to the recombinant human type I collagen solution and react under magnetic stirring for 3-5 hours to prepare RHCⅠ-MA solution. Then collect the supernatant by centrifugation, dilute, filter through a 0.22 um disposable syringe filter, dialyze through a dialysis bag for 3-4 days, and freeze-dry to obtain a RHCⅠ-MA sponge-like solid sample. Then, dissolve the freeze-dried RHCⅠ-MA in a 0.1% (w / v) photoinitiator LAP solution to obtain "Solution A". Use recombinant human type III collagen to prepare "Solution B" in the same way as above.

Add 600ul of methacrylic acid to the recombinant human type I collagen solution and react under magnetic stirring for 3-5 hours to prepare RHCⅠ-MA solution. Then collect the supernatant by centrifugation, dilute, filter through a 0.22 um disposable syringe filter, dialyze through a dialysis bag for 3-4 days, and freeze-dry to obtain a RHCⅠ-MA sponge-like solid sample. Then, dissolve the freeze-dried RHCⅠ-MA in a 0.1% (w / v) photoinitiator LAP solution to obtain "Solution A". Use recombinant human type III collagen to prepare "Solution B" in the same way as above.

(4) Solution A and solution B were mixed evenly in a volume ratio of 1:1 to obtain solution C. Solution C was then slowly added dropwise into a mixed solution of liquid paraffin (oil phase) and surfactant span 80 in a volume ratio of 10:2 at 2000 rpm through a syringe and stirred for 3 min.
