Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of biomaterials, and in particular to a modified recombinant type III collagen hydrogel loaded with houttuynia cordata vesicles and applications thereof. Background Art
[0002] Due to the complexity of diabetic wound healing, wound management in diabetic patients presents significant challenges. These wounds impose a significant socioeconomic burden and severely impact patients' quality of life. The scavenging of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is crucial for proper wound healing. However, elevated blood glucose levels in diabetic individuals can lead to excessive local production and accumulation of ROS, resulting in cellular and tissue damage and exacerbated tissue inflammation. Furthermore, hyperglycemia impairs endothelial and smooth muscle cell function, disrupts vascular networks, reduces local neovascularization, and further impedes the wound healing process. These factors collectively contribute to the poor treatment outcomes observed in diabetic wounds. Therefore, innovative treatments that mitigate oxidative damage, enhance angiogenesis, and inhibit tissue inflammation are urgently needed to improve outcomes in diabetic wound care.
[0003] Plant-derived extracellular vesicles (PDEVs) have significant potential in mitigating oxidative damage, promoting tissue regeneration, and exerting anti-inflammatory effects. These natural vesicles possess several key advantages, including high stability, inherent bioactivity, and efficient uptake by recipient cells. Due to their antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and proliferative properties, PDEVs hold promise for diabetic wound therapy. A particularly promising source of PDEVs is Houttuynia cordata thunb (HC), a perennial herb from the family Trichosanthes, renowned in traditional Chinese medicine for its wide range of therapeutic effects.
[0004] However, the wound healing process is prolonged and requires continuous tissue growth. The short half-life and rapid clearance of extracellular vesicles (EVs) pose significant challenges, limiting their further application. To overcome these limitations and maximize their therapeutic potential, it is crucial to develop a suitable carrier system to effectively protect and deliver PDEVs in the diabetic wound environment.
[0005] Hydrogels are widely used as wound dressings due to their excellent moisture retention, biocompatibility and customizable physical structure. However, hydrogel drug delivery systems also have certain shortcomings. Many hydrogels lack good controllability in drug release. The release rate of drugs is often affected by environmental changes (such as pH, temperature, etc.) or the structural characteristics of the hydrogel itself, resulting in unstable or too fast or too slow drug release, which is difficult to meet clinical needs. Hydrogels usually have low mechanical strength, which makes them easy to break or unstable in shape in certain practical applications, especially when used in vivo. If hydrogels are used for local administration, higher mechanical strength may be required to maintain structural stability. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a modified recombinant type III collagen hydrogel loaded with houttuynia cordata vesicles and its application. Houttuynia cordata vesicles are combined with modified recombinant human type III collagen to develop a microenvironment-responsive collagen hydrogel made of a physically inert polymer PVA, which can deliver houttuynia cordata vesicles to diabetic wounds.
[0007] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:
[0008] The hydrogel provided by the present invention is composed of houttuynia cordata vesicles, modified recombinant human type III collagen and polymer PVA;
[0009] The preparation method of Houttuynia cordata vesicles (HC-EVs) is as follows: 200g of Houttuynia cordata slices (purchased from Sinopharm Feng Liaoxing (Foshan) Medicinal Materials Pieces Co., Ltd.) were weighed, added to 500ml of sterile autoclaved PBS, and juiced with a juicer. The resulting juice was centrifuged in a 4°C centrifuge (Baiyang, R18, Beijing, China) at 500×g for 20 minutes, 2000×g for 30 minutes, and 10,000×g for 60 minutes to remove large plant tissue and cell debris to obtain Houttuynia cordata vesicles. Subsequently, the Houttuynia cordata vesicles were collected and ultracentrifuged at 100,000×g for 70 minutes and resuspended in PBS. The solution was sterilized by 0.22μm filtration and the resulting liquid was stored in aliquots at -80°C until use.
[0010] Modified recombinant human type III collagen was prepared by oxidative polymerization of recombinant human type III collagen with 3-amino-4-methoxybenzoic acid (AMB), followed by crosslinking with 3-aminophenylboronic acid (APBA) in 2-morpholinoethanesulfonic acid (MES) buffer in the presence of 1-ethyl-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC·HCl) and N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) to form BA-rhCOL3 (BC).
[0011] The method for preparing the modified recombinant type III collagen hydrogel loaded with Houttuynia cordata vesicles is as follows: 250 mg BC is dissolved in 1 ml of 10 10 The HC-EVs@BC hydrogel was prepared by adding 10 wt% PVA to a 1:1 volume ratio of the mixture to the PVA solution.
[0012] The present invention's microenvironment-responsive collagen hydrogel loaded with houttuynia cordata vesicles is composed of houttuynia cordata vesicles, modified recombinant human type III collagen, and the polymer PVA. When applied to diabetic wounds, the hydrogel maintains a moist environment. The presence of reactive oxygen species in the environment and the influence of the skin's pH environment promote the cleavage of boronate bonds in the collagen hydrogel, thereby scavenging the reactive oxygen species and releasing the encapsulated houttuynia cordata vesicles into the diabetic wound. This provides a potential and effective treatment for diabetic wounds.
[0013] Compared with other treatment methods, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] (1) The microenvironment-responsive collagen hydrogel loaded with Houttuynia cordata vesicles of the present invention is formed by boronate bonds. The boronate bonds are broken when they encounter reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the environment and the influence of the pH environment of the skin, thereby removing the reactive oxygen species and releasing the encapsulated Houttuynia cordata vesicles to the diabetic wound.
[0015] (2) The hydrogel of the present invention is simple to prepare and has low cost, which lays the foundation for large-scale preparation.
[0016] (3) The hydrogel is composed of modified recombinant human type III collagen. The structure of the hydrogel can control the slow release of Houttuynia cordata vesicles, ensuring that its active ingredients (such as anti-inflammatory factors, antioxidant factors, etc.) act continuously and stably on the wound, reducing the volatility and peak concentration of the drug, avoiding the rapid disappearance of the drug effect, and thus prolonging the duration of the therapeutic effect. When the hydrogel slowly releases the active ingredients in Houttuynia cordata, combined with the repair function of type III collagen, an optimized microenvironment can be formed in the local area. Houttuynia cordata enhances the repair and support effect of the hydrogel on cells by reducing inflammation and oxidative stress, making the effects of the two complement and promote each other.

[0031] Example 1 Preparation of modified recombinant human type III collagen
[0032] 1 g of recombinant human type III collagen and 100 mg of 3-amino-4-methoxybenzoic acid (AMB) were dissolved in 20 mL of deionized water, and 150 mg of ammonium persulfate (APS) was added as an oxidative polymerization catalyst. After 24 hours of reaction, the solution was dialyzed against deionized water for 3 days and then lyophilized to obtain AC.
[0033] Next, 2 g of A-C was dissolved in 20 mL of 2-morpholinoethanesulfonic acid buffer (MES) (pH = 5.0). Meanwhile, 0.52 g of 3-aminophenylboronic acid (APBA), 0.32 g of l-ethyl-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC-HCl), and 0.12 g of N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) were fully dissolved in the buffer. The mixture was stirred in an ice bath for 2 hours. Finally, B-C was obtained by lyophilization.
[0034] Preparation of modified recombinant human type III collagen hydrogel of Example 2
[0035] Before preparing the hydrogel, B-C and PVA were completely dissolved in deionized water to form solutions with concentrations of 25 wt% and 10 wt%, respectively. Then, the two solutions were rapidly mixed at a volume ratio of 1:1 to prepare B-C hydrogel (B-CH), and the mixture was then placed in a refrigerator at -20°C for three freeze-thaw cycles.
[0036] Preparation of Houttuynia cordata vesicles of Example 3
[0037] Houttuynia cordata slices were purchased from Fengxie (Foshan) Herbal Slice Co., Ltd. of China National Pharmaceutical Group. 200 g of Houttuynia cordata slices were weighed and added to 500 ml of high-pressure sterile PBS buffer (1X, pH 7.2-7.4, purchased from Adamas life). The juice was obtained by using a juicer and centrifuged at 500 x g for 20 minutes, 2000 x g for 30 minutes, and 10000 x g for 60 minutes in a centrifuge (Baiyang, R18, Beijing, China) to remove large plant tissues and cell debris to obtain Houttuynia cordata vesicles. Subsequently, the vesicles were collected by ultracentrifugation at 100,000 x g for 70 minutes and resuspended in 50 mL of PBS. The resuspended vesicles were filtered through a 0.22 μm sterile filter to obtain Houttuynia cordata vesicles (HC-EVs), and the resulting liquid was finally stored at -80°C for standby use.

[0047] Example 8 In vitro drug release
[0048] To investigate the microenvironment responsiveness of hydrogels, protein nanoparticles with a similar size to HC-EVs (100 nm ovalbumin nanoparticles) were used to simulate the release of HC-EVs in different environments. These protein nanoparticles were labeled with RhB to detect their release. An in vivo imaging system (ABL-X5, Tanon, China) was used to measure the emission concentration of the protein nanoparticles (excitation wavelength: 546 nm, emission wavelength: 610 nm). The hydrogels containing fluorescently labeled nanoparticles were placed in dialysis bags and soaked in different PBS solutions (10 mL per group): group 1 (pH 7.4), group 2 (pH 5.0), group 3 (pH 7.4 + 0.2 mM H2O2), group 4 (pH 5.0 + 0.2 mM H2O2), group 5 (pH 7.4 + 4 g / L glucose), and group 6 (pH 7.4 + 4 g / L glucose) Figure 2 (e.f), Figure 3 ).

[0054] L929 cells were seeded in 6-well plates and cultured for 24 h. Subsequently, a scratch was created in the cell monolayer using a pipette tip to simulate a wound. The cells were washed twice with PBS and then incubated with extracts of HC-EVs, B-CH, and HC-EVs@B-CH. Images of the scratch area were taken every 0, 12, 24, and 36 h to monitor the healing of the scratch. The wound healing rate ( Figure 5 (ce)).
[0055] Example 12 In vivo wound healing
[0056] Female ICR mice (6 weeks old, approximately 20 g) were acclimated for 1 week and then fasted for 24 hours. A 10 mg / mL solution of STZ was prepared in 0.1 mol / L sodium citrate buffer (pH 4.0). Hyperglycemia was induced by intraperitoneal injection of 100 mg / kg STZ. Blood glucose levels were measured using an Accu-Chek Active blood glucose meter. Mice with blood glucose levels exceeding 15 mmol / L were selected for study, and their blood glucose levels were monitored throughout the treatment period. Dorsal tissue was harvested from the selected mice, and isoflurane anesthesia was induced. A 1 cm long elliptical full-thickness skin wound was created on the upper back using a disposable biopsy punch to establish a chronic diabetic wound model. The diabetic mice were divided into four groups according to treatment: (I) control group (saline), (II) HC-EVs group, (III) B-CH group, and (IV) HC-EVs@B-CH group. Wound closure was recorded using a digital camera, and wound area was analyzed using ImageJ software (NIH, ImageJ 2.1.1, USA). The animals were sacrificed on the 7th and 14th days after surgery, and wound samples were collected for analysis ( Figure 6 ).
[0057] Example 13 Histological evaluation of skin samples
[0058] The samples were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde, embedded in paraffin, and sliced into 6 μm thick slices. The wound surface was histologically analyzed using hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining and Masson trichrome staining. After staining, images were captured using a microscope (ECLIPSE Ti2, Nikon, Japan) and analyzed using ImageJ software. In immunofluorescence staining, the samples were incubated with anti-CD31, anti-CD86, and anti-CD206 primary antibodies at 4°C overnight, followed by incubation with Cy3-conjugated secondary antibodies at 37°C for 1 hour. They were then stained with DAPI for 10 minutes. Finally, images were captured using a microscope (ECLIPSE Ti2, Nikon, Japan) and processed using ImageJ software ( Figure 7 , 8).
[0059] Example 14 mRNA Sequencing
[0060] Total RNA was extracted using Trizol reagent, and its quality and concentration were assessed using a spectrophotometer (NanoDrop 2000, Thermo Scientific, USA) and a bioanalyzer (Agilent 2100, Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, USA). Libraries were prepared using the TruSeq Stranded mRNA LT Sample Prep Kit (Illumina, San Diego, USA), and sequencing was performed using the Illumina HiSeq X Ten platform (Shanghai Aoyi Biotechnology Co., Ltd., China). Raw reads were processed using Trimmomatic to remove low-quality reads, and clean reads were aligned to the mouse reference genome (GRCm38) using HISAT2. Gene expression levels were quantified by calculating FPKM values using Cufflinks, and gene read counts were obtained using HTSeq-count. Differential expression analysis was performed using the DESeq R package (2012), with thresholds of P < 0.05 and |log2 fold-change| ≥ 1.0. Functional annotation and pathway analysis were performed using the DAVID (Database for annotation, Visualization, and Integrated Discovery) bioinformatics resource (version 6.8, https: / / david.ncifcrf.gov / summary.jsp) based on the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway annotations. Three animals were included in each experimental group ( Figure 9 ).
[0061] Example 15 Western Blot
[0062] Animal tissues were lysed using RIPA lysis buffer, and protein concentrations were determined using a BCA assay. Protein samples were separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and transferred to PVDF membranes. The membranes were blocked with 5% bovine serum albumin for 1 hour at 37°C and then incubated with primary antibodies overnight at 4°C. The primary antibodies used included anti-NF-κB p65 Rabbit pAb (1:300), anti-phospho-NF-κB p65 (S536) Rabbit pAb (1:600), anti-IκBα Rabbit pAb (1:1000), recombinant anti-phospho-IκBα Rabbit mAb (S32) Rabbit pAb (1:1000), anti-yap1 Rabbit pAb (1:1000), and anti-phospho-yap1 (S127) Rabbit pAb (1:500). After washing with TBST, the cells were incubated with HRP-labeled goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) (1:10,000). The signals were detected by chemiluminescence (Millipore, Bedford, MA, USA) and quantified using ImageJ software ( Figure 10 ).
