Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of biomedicine, and particularly relates to a composite material based on elastin-like polypeptide and a cell membrane bionic nanomedicine based on elastin-like polypeptide. Background Art

[0002] Gliomas are the most invasive and lethal primary brain tumors of the central nervous system, with poor prognosis, easy recurrence, and a five-year survival rate of less than 10%. The current treatment of gliomas is mainly surgical resection, supplemented by radiotherapy and chemotherapy, but due to its high invasiveness, genetic heterogeneity and protection of the blood-brain barrier (BBB), it has brought great resistance to the treatment of gliomas (Wu et al.Pharmacol.Res.2021,171,105780). With the continuous development of biology and the deepening of tumor research, targeted therapy and immunotherapy applied to gliomas have made progress, greatly improving the prognosis of glioma patients, but facing the inevitable drug resistance of gliomas and other problems is still unsolved. Therefore, it is urgent to prepare a suitable treatment system in combination with existing technical means to achieve efficient diagnosis and treatment of gliomas.

[0003] Sonodynamic therapy is a new type of tumor treatment with the advantages of being non-invasive, non-invasive, and having a high tissue penetration depth. It kills tumor cells by delivering small molecule sonosensitizers to the tumor site and inducing tumor cells to produce singlet oxygen through ultrasonic stimulation, thereby destroying tumor cell membrane components and nucleic acids (Zhang et al. Adv. Sci. 2023, 10(6), 2206009).

[0004] However, small molecule drug ingredients, including sonosensitizers that can be used for sonodynamic therapy, are easily metabolized during in vivo delivery and often lack selectivity for lesion sites. Therefore, they are often accompanied by serious side effects and low therapeutic efficiency during use. With the continuous development of nanomedicine, various nanosystems that can be designed on demand provide feasible strategies for solving these problems and provide new opportunities for achieving effective cancer diagnosis and treatment. Among the many organic / inorganic components used to construct nanodelivery platforms, biomacromolecules have attracted more and more attention due to their versatility and natural biocompatibility (Cheng et al. Polym. Int. 2022, 71 (4), 371-378). Elastin-like polypeptide (ELP) is an artificial polypeptide with elastin characteristics designed and synthesized based on the amino acid sequence of natural elastin. Its amino acid sequence is mainly composed of pentapeptide (Val-Pro-Gly-Xaa-Gly, VPGXG) repeating units. These artificial peptides exhibit temperature-dependent phase transition behavior and can be used to prepare stimulus-responsive biomaterials. By changing their sequence composition or modifying specific amino acid residues, their response to stimuli such as temperature, pH and light can be adjusted (Ibrahimova et al. Bioconjugate Chem. 2021, 32 (8), 1719-1728). At present, there are many literature reports that hydrophobic small molecule drugs such as DOX, PTX, and TT1 are connected to ELP, and the resulting complexes self-assemble to form nanomicelle structures, which enhance the water solubility of hydrophobic drugs and improve drug delivery efficiency for tumor treatment (Andrew MacKay et al. Nat. Mater. 2009, 8 (12), 993-999; Bhattacharyya et al. Nat. Commun. 2015, 6, 7939; Ibrahimova et al. Bioconjugate Chem. 2021, 32 (8), 1719-1728). A large number of studies have verified that ELP can be used as a non-immunogenic and precisely controllable nanocarrier building block.

[0005] Tannic acid (TA) and manganese ion (Mn 2+ ) can form a metal polyphenol network through coordination for tumor diagnosis and treatment. 3+ , Mn 2+ It can not only inhibit tumor cells through chemodynamic therapy, but also has the potential to activate immunity. The research of Jiang Zhengfan's team at Peking University found that Mn 2+It can strongly activate the intracellular cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS)-stimulator of interferon genes (STING) pathway, release a large amount of type I interferon, and activate the natural immune response of macrophages and dendritic cells (DCs) (Zhao et al. Cell Rep. 2020, 32 (7), 108053). 2+ The "manganese-free therapy" combined with PD-1 antibodies significantly enhanced the therapeutic effect of tumors by activating cellular immunity (Lv et al. Cell Res. 2020, 30(11), 966-979). The Dai Yunlu team of the University of Macau combined the phenolic hydroxyl groups of chemically synthesized polyphenol derivatives with Mn 2+ A new metal-polyphenol network was constructed by coordination, using Mn 2+ Activate cGAS and increase its responsiveness to intracellular dsDNA, activate the STING pathway, thereby maturing DCs and activating anti-tumor immune responses, reshaping the tumor immune microenvironment (Yanet.al.Adv.Mater.,2022,34(10),2105783). The nanomedicine prepared in this design showed good anti-tumor effects, but active targeting was not involved in the design.

[0006] Although the nano-drug delivery system can achieve drug loading, exogenous substances are easily captured by the mononuclear phagocytic system and quickly cleared from the body. In addition, the existence of the BBB greatly limits the accumulation of drugs in situ brain gliomas, which greatly reduces the diagnosis and treatment efficiency of brain gliomas.

The T values ​​of the material at different Mn concentrations were measured by magnetic resonance imaging analyzer. 1 Relaxation time, the reciprocal of the relaxation time is linearly fitted with the Mn concentration, and its slope is the relaxation rate r 1 .like Figure 6 As shown, the r 1 3.663mM -1 s -1 , indicating that Ce6-ELP@TM / MM has good T 1 MR imaging effects.

[0088] Example 8

[0089] C6 cells were used as model cells to study the phagocytosis of Ce6-ELP@TM / MM prepared in Example 1. C6 cells in the logarithmic growth phase were collected and cultured at 1×10 5 The cells were seeded at a density of 100 cells per well in a 12-well plate. The culture medium used was DMEM complete culture medium supplemented with 100 U / mL penicillin, 100 U / mL streptomycin, and 10% FBS.

The fluorescence intensity in the cells was detected by flow cytometry. Figure 7As shown in the figure, as the incubation time increases, the phagocytic amount of Ce6-ELP@TM / MM by C6 cells gradually increases and reaches the highest phagocytic amount at 4 hours. Therefore, in subsequent experiments, Ce6-ELP@TM / MM was first incubated with cells for 4 hours, and then the cells were ultrasonically treated to achieve sonodynamic therapy of tumors.

[0091] C6 cells were used as model cells to study the in vitro antitumor activity of Ce6, Ce6-ELP nanomicelles, Ce6-ELP@TM and Ce6-ELP@TM / MM prepared in Example 1. C6 cells in the logarithmic growth phase were collected and cultured at 1×10 4 The cells were seeded in 6 96-well plates at a density of 100 cells per well. The culture medium used was DMEM complete culture medium supplemented with 100 U / mL penicillin, 100 U / mL streptomycin and 10% FBS. The plates were placed in a 5% CO 2 , incubate at 37°C for 24h. Discard the original culture medium, and add complete culture medium containing different concentrations of Ce6, Ce6-ELP nanomicelles, Ce6-ELP@TM and Ce6-ELP@TM / MM (the concentrations of the materials used are the corresponding concentrations when the Ce6 concentration is 0.2, 0.5, 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50 μg / mL) to each well plate. Then place the well plate in 5% CO 2 , incubate at 37°C for 24h, discard the original culture medium, add DMEM medium containing 10% (v / v) CCK-8, and continue to culture for 2-4h. Finally, use a multifunctional microplate reader to test the absorbance value of each well at a wavelength of 450nm. The cells treated with PBS are used as blank controls, and the cell viability is recorded as 100%. The results are as follows Figure 8 As shown in the figure, within the experimental concentration range, the cell viability of Ce6 and Ce6-ELP nanoemulsions did not decrease significantly, indicating that the nanoemulsions have good cell compatibility. 2+ After the addition of Mn 2+ It has a chemodynamic therapeutic effect, which gives the nanomedicine certain cancer cell killing properties. In contrast, the cell viability of the Ce6-ELP@TM / MM group was lower than that of the Ce6-ELP@TM group, which may be due to the fact that after MM bionics, the nanomedicine enhanced the uptake of nanomedicine by cancer cells through homologous targeting.

[0092] To evaluate the effect of sonodynamic therapy, C6 cells in the logarithmic growth phase were collected and cultured at 1×10 4The cells were seeded in 6 96-well plates at a density of 100 cells per well. The culture medium used was DMEM complete culture medium supplemented with 100 U / mL penicillin, 100 U / mL streptomycin and 10% FBS. The plates were placed in a 5% CO 2 , incubate at 37°C for 24h. Discard the original culture medium, and add complete culture medium containing different concentrations of Ce6, Ce6-ELP nanomicelles, Ce6-ELP@TM and Ce6-ELP@TM / MM (the concentrations of the materials used are the corresponding concentrations when the Ce6 concentration is 0.2, 0.5, 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50 μg / mL) to each well plate. Then place the well plate in 5% CO 2 , incubated at 37°C for 4 h, at 1 MHz, 1 W cm -2 , 40s of conditioned cells were then incubated for 8h, the original culture medium was discarded, and DMEM culture medium containing 10% (v / v) CCK-8 was added and cultured for 2-4h. Finally, the absorbance of each well was tested at a wavelength of 450nm using a multifunctional microplate reader. Cells treated with PBS were used as blank controls, and cell viability was recorded as 100%. The results are shown in Fig. 9 As shown in Figure 2, after ultrasound irradiation, the cell viability level gradually decreased with the increase of Ce6 concentration. Figure 8 Compared with the group without ultrasound, the cell viability level after ultrasound treatment was significantly reduced, which indicates that sonodynamic therapy plays a stronger role in the anti-tumor activity mediated by the nanodrug than chemodynamic therapy and can more effectively inhibit the activity of cancer cells. After MM biomimetic, the uptake of nanodrugs by cancer cells was enhanced, further improving its effect. According to the experimental results, the half-maximal inhibition concentration of different nanodrugs under ultrasound assistance can be calculated, which are 5.14μg / mL (Ce6), 6.38μg / mL (Ce6-ELP nanomicelles), 4.63μg / mL (Ce6-ELP@TM) and 4.02μg / mL (Ce6-ELP@TM / MM).

[0094] C6 cells were used as a cell model to evaluate the effects of different materials on intracellular ROS levels. C6 cells in the logarithmic growth phase were collected and counted at 1×10 5 The cells were inoculated in a 12-well plate at a density of 100 cells / mL and cultured for 24 h. The original culture medium was discarded and culture medium containing PBS or culture medium containing Ce6, Ce6-ELP nanomicelles, Ce6-ELP@TM and Ce6-ELP@TM / MM (the concentrations of the materials used were the corresponding concentrations when the concentration of Ce6 was 4 μg / mL) was added to each well and incubated with the cells under 5% CO. 2 The cells and materials were incubated at 37°C for 6 h. In the ultrasound treatment group, cells and materials were incubated for 4 h at 1 MHz and 1 W cm-2 The cells were treated with the conditions of 100 μL PBS for 30 s and then incubated for 2 h. The original culture medium was discarded, the cells were washed with PBS three times, and the cells were collected by trypsin digestion. They were incubated with DCFH-DA probe diluted with serum-free culture medium for 30 min in the dark. After washing with PBS three times, the cells were resuspended in 300 μL PBS and the fluorescence intensity was detected by flow cytometry. Fig.10 (ab) As shown, without ultrasound, the Mn 2+ Ce6-ELP@TM and Ce6-ELP@TM / MM can significantly increase the level of intracellular ROS, which is due to the fact that Mn 2+ It can catalyze the production of hydroxyl radicals through a Fenton-like reaction, thus achieving chemodynamic therapy for cancer cells. After the cells were co-incubated with the material and further irradiated with ultrasound, the ROS levels in each group increased significantly (cd), which was due to the generation of singlet oxygen by the sonosensitizer Ce6 under ultrasound irradiation. These results indicate that the prepared Ce6-ELP@TM / MM can utilize Mn 2+ Hydroxyl free radicals are produced, which can further produce singlet oxygen under the action of ultrasound, thereby increasing the ROS level in cancer cells through chemodynamic / sonodynamic therapy.

The ultrasound treatment group was incubated with the cells and materials for 4 h at 1 MHz, 1 W cm -2 , 30s of treatment, and then continued to incubate for 12h. Then, all the cells in the wells were digested, centrifuged, collected, and incubated with cell apoptosis detection reagent Annexin V-FITC and PI diluted 100 times with PBS for 10min, and cell apoptosis and necrosis were detected by flow cytometry. The results are shown in Fig.11 As shown in Figure 2, without ultrasound irradiation, cells treated with Ce6 and Ce6-ELP nanomicelles did not show significant cell killing, but after integrating Mn2+ After that, the level of cell death increased, which was due to the Mn 2+ After the cells were treated with the same material, the level of cell apoptosis increased significantly compared with that before ultrasound, which once again proved that Ce6-ELP@TM / MM-mediated sonodynamic therapy played a major role, and combined with chemodynamic therapy and MM bionics, it could exert a stronger therapeutic effect.

[0098] In order to verify the ICD effect caused by the nanomaterials prepared in Example 1 in treating cancer cells, C6 cells were used as a cell model to evaluate the release of ICD markers high mobility group protein (HMGB-1) and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) after treatment with Ce6, Ce6-ELP nanomicelles, Ce6-ELP@TM and Ce6-ELP@TM / MM (the concentrations of the materials used were the corresponding concentrations when the concentration of Ce6 was 4 μg / mL) and ultrasonic irradiation. Cancer cells that were not treated with ultrasonic waves were used as controls.

[0099] C6 cells in the logarithmic growth phase were collected and counted at 1×10 5 The cells were inoculated at a density of 100 cells / mL in a 12-well plate.

The culture medium was collected and the HMGB-1 ELISA kit and ATP detection kit were used to test the HMGB-1 and ATP content in the cell culture medium, respectively. The results are shown in Fig.12As shown in the figure, similar to the results of apoptosis detection, the HMGB-1 and ATP secreted by cells treated with Ce6-ELP nanomicelles were similar to those in the PBS group without ultrasound irradiation, but after coating with TM, the release levels of HMGB-1 and ATP in the Ce6-ELP@TM and Ce6-ELP@TM / MM groups increased, indicating that chemodynamic therapy has a certain effect in inducing ICD in cancer cells. After further ultrasound irradiation, the release of HMGB-1 and ATP in each treatment group increased significantly. These results indicate that Ce6-ELP@TM / MM can induce ICD in cancer cells under the assistance of ultrasound.

[0101] In order to evaluate the maturation of dendritic cells by the material prepared in Example 1 and ultrasound-induced cancer cell ICD, the maturation level of dendritic cells was verified by Transwell experiment using C6 cells and dendritic cells as cell models. C6 cells in the logarithmic growth phase were collected and 1×10 5 The cells were inoculated into the upper chamber of a 12-well Transwell plate at a density of 100 cells / mL and placed in a new 12-well plate. The culture medium used was DMEM complete culture medium supplemented with 100 U / mL penicillin, 100 U / mL streptomycin, and 10% FBS. The plate was placed in a 5% CO 2 At the same time, dendritic cells in the logarithmic growth phase were collected and cultured at 1×10 5 The cells were inoculated into the lower chamber of a 12-well Transwell plate at a density of 100 cells / mL. The culture medium used was DMEM complete culture medium supplemented with 100 U / mL penicillin, 100 U / mL streptomycin, and 10% FBS. The plate was placed in a 5% CO 2 After culturing the cancer cells for 24 h, the original culture medium was discarded, and the culture medium containing Ce6, Ce6-ELP nanomicelles, Ce6-ELP@TM and Ce6-ELP@TM / MM (the concentrations of the materials used were the corresponding concentrations when the concentration of Ce6 was 4 μg / mL) was added to each well and the cells were cultured under 5% CO 2 The cells were incubated at 37°C for 12 h. The ultrasound treatment group was incubated with the cells and materials for 4 h at 1 MHz and 1 W cm -2 The cells were treated with the conditions of 1% PBS and 30 s, and then incubated for 8 h. Subsequently, the culture medium in the dendritic cells was replaced, and the C6 cells treated with different materials were transferred to the dendritic cell upper chamber for co-culture for 24 h. The lower dendritic cells were collected and co-incubated with dendritic cell maturation marker proteins CD80-FITC and CD86-PE antibodies on ice for 30 min, then washed three times with PBS, and the cells were resuspended in PBS. The maturation of dendritic cells was detected by flow cytometry. The results are shown in Fig.13As shown, without ultrasound, the degree of maturation of dendritic cells in the Ce6-ELP@TM / MM group was slightly higher than that in the PBS group. However, after ultrasound treatment, the maturation level of dendritic cells in each group increased significantly, which was consistent with the release of ICD markers. The above results show that the nanomaterial Ce6-ELP@TM / MM prepared in Example 1 can effectively induce ICD in cancer cells after combining chemodynamic therapy and sonodynamic therapy, promote cell secretion of HMGB-1 and ATP, and induce dendritic cell maturation, and sonodynamic therapy plays a major role in the nanomaterial prepared by the present invention.

[0103] Ce6 cells were used as a cell model to evaluate the effects of different materials on the cGAS-STING pathway in cells. 5 The cells were inoculated at a density of 100 cells / mL in a 6-well plate. The culture medium used was DMEM complete culture medium supplemented with 100 U / mL penicillin, 100 U / mL streptomycin, and 10% FBS. The plate was placed in a 5% CO 2 The original culture medium was discarded, and the culture medium containing Ce6, Ce6-ELP nanomicelles, Ce6-ELP@TM and Ce6-ELP@TM / MM (the concentration of the materials used was the corresponding concentration when the concentration of Ce6 was 4 μg / mL) was added to each dish and the cells were incubated at 5% CO. 2 The cells were incubated at 37°C for 24 h. The ultrasound treatment group was incubated with the cells and materials for 4 h at 1 MHz and 1 W cm -2 The cells were treated with the conditions of 10% PBS and 10% PBS for 30 seconds, and then incubated for 20 hours. Then, all the cells in the wells were digested, centrifuged, and collected. The cells were lysed on ice and centrifuged at 4°C and 12,000 rpm for 5 minutes. The supernatant protein solution was collected and the protein concentration was determined. SDS-PAGE electrophoresis, membrane transfer, immunoreaction, and ECL chemical developer fixation experiments were then performed in sequence to study the changes in the content of p-STING, p-IRF3, and p-TBK1 in the cells. The results are shown in Fig.14 As shown in the figure, the expression of STING pathway related proteins changed to varying degrees after treatment with each group of materials, while after treatment with Mn 2+ After treatment with the materials, the levels of various proteins increased significantly, indicating that Mn 2+It can activate the cGAS-STING pathway and activate anti-tumor immunity. After ultrasound irradiation, the upregulation level of STING pathway-related proteins in the Ce6-ELP@TM / MM+US group was more significant, which may be because the singlet oxygen produced by sonodynamic therapy can enhance the DNA damage of cells, thereby promoting the activation of the cGAS-STING pathway. The activation of the cGAS-STING pathway can be combined with ICD caused by sonodynamic / chemodynamic therapy to achieve immunotherapy for tumors.

[0105] All animal experiments were conducted in strict accordance with the standards of the Animal Protection Association. 6-8 week old female ICR mice were purchased from Shanghai Slake Laboratory Animal Center. The orthotopic glioma model was established by the following method: the mice were anesthetized and their heads were fixed using a stereotaxic apparatus. The surgical area was disinfected, the skin was lightly cut with a blade, and a hole was made in the skull. Then 5 μL of 5×10 5 The PBS cell suspension of C6 cells was slowly inoculated into the right striatum of each mouse within 5 minutes (2.0 mm from the dorsal side of the bregma, 2.0 mm from the right lateral side of the sagittal suture, and 3.0 mm in depth). 5-7 days after inoculation, magnetic resonance imaging was used to monitor and confirm whether the orthotopic glioma model was successfully established. The established orthotopic glioma model was used for subsequent in vivo anti-tumor treatment experiments.

[0106] The ICR mice with successfully constructed C6 orthotopic glioma were randomly divided into 6 groups, with 5 mice in each group: PBS, Ce6-ELP@TM, Ce6-ELP@TM / MM, PBS+US, Ce6-ELP@TM+US, Ce6-ELP@TM / MM+US (Ce6 = 5 mg / kg -1 , 100 μL), the injection method was tail vein injection, and the ultrasound treatment group was treated with ultrasound at 1 MHz, 1.5 W cm 2 h after intravenous injection. -2 , 2 minutes of treatment. The day of treatment was recorded as day 1, and treatment was conducted once every 2 days, for a total of 4 times. At the same time, the magnetic resonance imaging system was used to monitor and record the changes in tumor volume on days 0, 3, 6, and 9, and Magnevist (9.38 mg / mouse) was used as a contrast agent. Tumor volume (V) was calculated according to the following formula: V = a × b 2 / 2, where a represents the measured length of the tumor and b represents the measured width of the tumor. Fig.15(ab), relative to the PBS group, each treatment group showed different degrees of tumor inhibition effect, and the tumor volume growth rate decreased. Compared with the non-ultrasound group, the relative tumor volume of mice after ultrasound treatment was significantly reduced, further proving that sonodynamic therapy still played a major role in Ce6-ELP@TM / MM-mediated in vivo anti-tumor treatment. In addition, Ce6-ELP@TM / MM coated with MM had the best inhibitory effect on tumor growth under ultrasound assistance. This phenomenon is due to the fact that MM can promote the immune escape of nanodrugs and prolong their circulation time in the body on the one hand; on the other hand, it can also help nanodrugs cross the BBB and actively target tumor tissues, thereby increasing drug accumulation at the tumor site. Fig.15 (c) is the curve of mouse body weight changes during treatment. The data show that the body weight of tumor-bearing mice in each group decreased slightly, which may be due to the rapid growth of in situ brain glioma, which has a certain impact on the growth of mice.

[0107] Example 16

[0108] To observe the changes of ICD and Mn caused by different treatments 2+ In order to activate anti-tumor immunity in mice, brain tissues of mice in different groups were collected under sterile conditions, and cells were ground and extracted using a 400-mesh cell sieve, and then filtered through a nylon wool column to obtain T cells. The above-extracted T cell suspension was labeled with Anti-CD3-PE / Anti-CD4-FTIC or Anti-CD3-PE / Anti-CD8-FTIC, and the changes in the levels of CD4+T cells and CD8+T cells in the tumor site were analyzed by flow cytometry. The results are shown in Fig.16 As shown in the figure, after different treatments, the level of T cell infiltration in the mouse tumor site was increased, and the level of tumor-infiltrating T cells in the mouse treated with ultrasound was more significantly increased. The Ce6-ELP@TM / MM plus ultrasound group achieved the best immune activation effect due to enhanced tumor accumulation. The activation of T cells in the tumor site indicates that Ce6-ELP@TM / MM can, on the one hand, induce ICD to activate anti-tumor immune response and recruit T cells into tumor tissue through sonodynamic / chemodynamic therapy, and on the other hand, it can utilize Mn 2+ Activation of the cGAS-STING pathway and the maturation of the generated ICD on DCs are used to promote anti-tumor immune response. In general, the nanomedicine Ce6-ELP@TM / MM prepared by the present invention can achieve immune escape after MM biomimetic, obtain prolonged blood circulation time, and achieve brain delivery of drugs across the BBB, thereby performing chemodynamic / sonic dynamic treatment of in situ brain gliomas, and further achieving immunotherapy of tumors by inducing ICD and activating the cGAS-STING pathway.
