Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of biomedicine, and specifically relates to a bionic PLGA composite nano material and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Atherosclerosis, referred to as AS, its pathogenesis mainly involves high levels of plasma cholesterol, especially plasma low-density lipoprotein cholesterol LDL-C, and the accumulation of inflammatory cells in atherosclerotic plaques. The early lesions of atherosclerosis originate from the accumulation of cholesterol under the endothelium. With the continuous development of atherosclerosis, the expression of adhesion molecules on the endothelium increases, recruiting monocytes to the lesion plaques, and then monocytes differentiate into macrophages and ingest excessive LDL-C to form foam cells, and accelerate the recruitment of more immune cells to the inflammatory site of the plaque through a positive feedback mechanism, thereby promoting the further development of atherosclerotic plaques. Existing methods for treating atherosclerosis mainly include drug therapy, vascular intervention therapy and surgical treatment, and oral drug therapy is the main treatment. However, clinical oral medication has the disadvantages of low drug targeting, poor water solubility and rapid clearance, resulting in limited efficacy. Therefore, the development of a new drug formulation is a problem that needs to be solved urgently.

[0003] Eloumab is a proprotein convertase subtilisin / kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitor, also known as a PCSK9 inhibitor, which has attracted widespread attention in the treatment of atherosclerosis due to its function of lowering LDL-C. It is well known that the low-density lipoprotein cholesterol receptor LDLR is the main pathway for the removal of cholesterol from the circulation. Eloumab can block the PCSK9 protein-mediated LDLR degradation process, thereby upregulating the cell surface LDLR level and ultimately achieving the effect of lowering plasma LDL. However, the current LDL-lowering therapy cannot fully address the residual cardiovascular risk caused by potential inflammation. Therefore, the combination of anti-inflammatory drugs is an effective way to solve this problem. Curcumin is a natural polyphenol derived from the rhizome of turmeric. It has attracted widespread attention due to its anti-inflammatory, immunosuppressive, antioxidant, antiviral, antitumor activities and its lipid-lowering function. Previous studies have shown that curcumin may play an anti-atherosclerotic role by regulating macrophage polarization and inhibiting the transmission of inflammatory signals. However, the poor water solubility and low bioavailability of this natural drug have greatly limited its clinical use. Therefore, it is considered to adjust the administration method and use the two drugs in combination for the treatment of atherosclerosis. However, how to deliver the two drugs to the lesion area at the same time and increase the accumulation of the drugs in the inflammatory area remains a major challenge. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a bionic PLGA composite nanomaterial, which can deliver two drugs, evolocumab and curcumin, to the lesion area at the same time and improve the accumulation of drugs in the inflammatory area.

[0010] Preferably, the method of encapsulating the curcumin in poly(lactic acid-co-glycolic acid) comprises any one of a nanoprecipitation method, an emulsification solvent volatilization method, a liquid / solvent evaporation method, a liquid-driven co-flow focusing method and an emulsification / solvent diffusion method.

[0011] Preferably, the method of encapsulating the evolocumab in poly(lactic acid-co-glycolic acid) comprises any one of a spray drying method, an emulsification solvent volatilization method, a liquid / solvent evaporation method and a nanoprecipitation method.

[0012] Preferably, when preparing the polylactic acid-co-glycolic acid dispersion loaded with curcumin, the mass ratio of curcumin to the polylactic acid-co-glycolic acid is 1:10-20.

[0013] Preferably, when preparing the polylactic acid-co-glycolic acid dispersion loaded with evolocumab, the mass ratio of evolocumab to the polylactic acid-co-glycolic acid is 0.025 to 0.5:1.

[0014] Preferably, when preparing the biomimetic membrane-coated composite material loaded with curcumin and eloumab, the molar ratio of the polylactic acid-co-glycolic acid dispersion loaded with curcumin to the polylactic acid-co-glycolic acid dispersion loaded with eloumab is 20 to 40:1.

[0015] The present invention provides an application of the bionic PLGA composite nano material. The bionic PLGA composite nano material is used for preparing a preparation for treating atherosclerosis.

[0016] Preferably, the atherosclerosis includes at least one of aortic atherosclerosis, coronary atherosclerosis, cerebral atherosclerosis, renal artery atherosclerosis and limb artery atherosclerosis.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] The present invention provides a biomimetic PLGA composite nanomaterial, wherein the biomimetic PLGA composite nanomaterial is a polylactic acid-glycolic acid copolymer that co-loads and encapsulates curcumin and eloumab, and then a biomimetic membrane is camouflaged on the outer layer of the polylactic acid-glycolic acid copolymer, and then phospholipidated hyaluronic acid is modified on the surface of the biomimetic membrane. The biomimetic PLGA composite nanomaterial of the present invention utilizes the design features of biomimetic membrane and hyaluronic acid modification, combines the anti-atherosclerotic effects of curcumin and eloumab of two different mechanisms, realizes the specific aggregation and penetration of drugs in the lesion site, and improves the bioavailability of drugs to target cells, so as to achieve the purpose of synergistically enhancing the treatment of atherosclerosis.

[0019] In addition to loading drugs for treating and / or preventing atherosclerosis, the present invention provides a bionic nanocomposite material that is co-loaded with drugs, which can be used as an alternative platform for treating other diseases, such as tumors, rheumatoid arthritis, etc., by replacing different bionic membrane types and drugs and utilizing the immune escape ability of the bionic membrane and the mechanism of action of different drugs. Therefore, the present invention combines a bionic membrane coating with a targeted modified nanocomposite material, which can provide multiple functions and advantages to treat a variety of diseases.

[0020] The present invention compensates for the common liver function abnormalities, muscle effects, blood sugar abnormalities, gastrointestinal reactions and other possible side effects of long-term use of statins, while improving the half-life of the drug in the blood and the plaque targeting effect, providing a new option for carrying out related clinical treatments, and has important scientific significance, practical value and economic value.

[0021] The bionic PLGA composite nanomaterial of the present invention utilizes the anti-atherosclerotic effects of two different mechanisms of curcumin and eloumab to achieve targeted treatment of atherosclerosis. Compared with a single drug, the dosage is halved and the combined use of nano-sized drugs enhances efficacy and reduces toxicity. The inflammatory environment at the site of atherosclerotic plaques secretes inflammatory factors to recruit macrophages, and the outermost bionic membrane achieves the ability of the nanocomposite material to achieve long blood circulation and target the lesion site through its inherent immune escape and recruitment characteristics of the source cells. By utilizing the characteristics of the interaction between hyaluronic acid and the target cell surface receptor CD44, the target cells can effectively utilize the nanocomposite material and improve its effect in preventing and treating atherosclerosis.

[0031] The present invention is further described below by specific examples, but the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. The details and forms of the technical solution of the present invention may be modified or replaced without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, but these modifications or replacements all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0032] The inventive concept of the present invention is as follows:

[0033] Existing methods for treating atherosclerosis mainly include drug therapy, vascular intervention therapy and surgical treatment, and oral drug therapy is the main method. However, clinical oral medication has disadvantages such as low drug targeting, poor water solubility and rapid clearance, which leads to limited efficacy. Therefore, the development of a new drug dosage form is a problem that needs to be solved urgently.

[0034] As a drug for the treatment of atherosclerosis, eloumab blocks the PCSK9 protein-mediated LDLR degradation process, upregulates the cell surface LDLR level and ultimately reduces plasma LDL. However, the current LDL-lowering therapy cannot fully address the residual cardiovascular risk caused by underlying inflammation, so anti-inflammatory drugs are usually used in combination to solve this problem. Curcumin, as a natural polyphenol, can be used as a potential synergistic therapeutic drug. However, the poor water solubility and low bioavailability of natural drugs have greatly limited their clinical use. Therefore, it is considered to adjust the administration method and use the two drugs in combination for the treatment of atherosclerosis. However, how to deliver the two drugs to the lesion area at the same time and increase the accumulation of drugs at the site of inflammation remains a major challenge.

[0035] Based on this, the present invention provides a biomimetic PLGA composite nanomaterial, wherein the biomimetic PLGA composite nanomaterial is a polylactic acid-glycolic acid copolymer that co-loads and encapsulates curcumin and eloumab, and then a biomimetic membrane is camouflaged on the outer layer of the polylactic acid-glycolic acid copolymer, and then phospholipidated hyaluronic acid is modified on the surface of the biomimetic membrane. The biomimetic PLGA composite nanomaterial of the present invention utilizes the design features of biomimetic membrane and hyaluronic acid modification, combines the anti-atherosclerotic effects of curcumin and eloumab of two different mechanisms, realizes the specific aggregation and penetration of drugs in the lesion site, and improves the bioavailability of drugs to target cells, so as to achieve the purpose of synergistic treatment of atherosclerosis.

In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise specified, the reagents used are all commercially available, and the methods used are all conventional techniques in the art.

[0057] Application of a biomimetic PLGA composite material in the prevention and treatment of homocysteine-induced atherosclerosis

[0058] The HA-M@P@(Evol+Cur)NPs prepared in Example 1 were used for subsequent experiments.

[0059] (1) Methods for determination of DiI-oxLDL uptake assay and foam cell formation assay.

[0061] The different component drugs are as follows: Control group: no treatment; Model group: Hcy was added; Cur+Evol group: 3μL 10μM Cur+2.7μL 1.25nM Evol was added after Hcy was added; HA-M@P@(Evol+Cur) group: 18.8μL 60μg / mL HA-M@P@(Evol+Cur) NPs was added after Hcy was added.

[0062] The steps of the foam cell formation experiment are as follows: 1.5×10 5 RAW264.7 cells were inoculated into 24-well plates, and 100 μM Hcy was added and incubated for 24 hours; different components of drugs diluted in serum-free medium were used for 2 hours; 80 μg / mL ox-LDL was added for 48 hours; the medium was removed, PBS was washed 3 times, and 3% ORO staining solution was added for 30 minutes; the microscope was used for photography. Different components of drugs were the same as above.

Figure 4 The HA-M@P@(Evol+Cur)NPs of the present invention inhibit the uptake of DiI-oxLDL and inhibit the formation of foam cells. Figure 4 In the figure, A is the uptake of DiI-oxLDL, and B is the inhibition of foam cells. Figure 4 It was shown that HA-M@P@(Evol+Cur)NPs biomimetic nanoformulation could effectively inhibit the formation of foam cells.

[0064] (2) Experimental determination method of HA-M@P@(Evol+Cur)NPs regulating macrophage polarization to reduce inflammation.

[0065] The experimental steps of HA-M@P@(Evol+Cur) regulating macrophage polarization are as follows:

After incubation with 100 μM Hcy overnight, M1 / M2 macrophages were polarized in vitro. After polarization, the cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and then incubated with 0.3% TritonX-100 for 30 minutes. After washing with PBS, the cells were blocked with a blocking solution containing 10% NGS and 0.3% TritonX-100 at room temperature for 2 hours. Then, the cells were incubated with the primary antibodies iNOS and Arg-1, respectively, at 4°C overnight. Subsequently, the fluorescent secondary antibody was incubated for 2 hours, and the cell nuclei were counterstained with DAPI staining solution. Finally, the slides were sealed with an anti-fluorescence quencher, and the cells were observed and photographed under a confocal laser scanning microscope. The experimental results are shown in Figure 5 It was shown that HA-M@P@(Evol+Cur)NPs could regulate the M1-M2 transition of macrophages.

[0067] The experimental steps of HA-M@P@(Evol+Cur)NPs inhibiting macrophage inflammatory response are as follows:

[0068] RAW264.7 cells were inoculated into 24-well plates and cultured for 24 hours, and then different components of drugs were added and incubated for 48 hours; the culture medium was collected and the expression of inflammatory factors was detected by ELISA kit. Figure 5 It was shown that HA-M@P@(Evol+Cur)NPs could inhibit the expression of inflammatory factors.

[0069] (3) The blood half-life and in vivo targeting of HA-M@P@(Evol+Cur)NPs biomimetic nanoformulation were determined by semi-quantitative means of detecting fluorescence intensity.

[0070] Experiment 1: PLGA and HA-M@P@(Evol+Cur)NPs were labeled with dihydrochlorin e6, i.e. Ce6. 200 μL of 5 mg / kg P@Ce6 and HA-M@P@Ce6 were injected into the tail vein of C57BL / 6 mice, and blood samples were collected at different time points, 0h, 1h, 2h, 4h, 4h, 8h, 12h and 24h for fluorescence intensity measurement.

[0071] Among them, P@Ce6 was prepared by the following method: 10 mg PLGA was dissolved in 1 mL dichloromethane solution to obtain PLGA solution, 100 μL 20 mg / mL Ce6 was added dropwise to the PLGA solution, and after sufficient mixing, 60W water bath ultrasound was applied for 5 min. The above mixture was added dropwise to 10 mL PVA with a mass fraction of 1%, and ultrasound was applied at 10% power for 10 min. Stir at 100 rpm for 12 h to evaporate dichloromethane. Centrifuge at 10000 rpm for 10 min, and the precipitate was re-dissolved with PBS to obtain a PLGA dispersion loaded with Ce6, which was recorded as P@Ce6.

[0072] HA-M@P@Ce6 was prepared by the following method: the PLGA dispersion loaded with Ce6 was mixed with 1 mL, 1 mg / mL biomimetic membrane M after water bath ultrasonic treatment in a mass ratio of 1:2, and repeatedly extruded at least 10 times through a micro-extruder with a pore size of 200 nm to obtain the M@P@Ce6 biomimetic nanopreparation; the phospholipidated hyaluronic acid was redissolved in PBS solution, 250 ug of the phospholipidated hyaluronic acid solution was added to the M@P@Ce6 solution, and stirred in a water bath at 37°C and 800 rpm for 60 minutes to obtain HA-M@P@Ce6.

[0073] Figure 6 is the blood half-life of HA-M@P@Ce6 in C57 mice. Figure 6 As shown in the figure, the blood circulation half-lives of P@Ce6 and HA-M@P@Ce6 are 1.313h and 2.457h, respectively, indicating that the biomimetic membrane-camouflaged nanoformulation is beneficial to prolong the blood circulation time.

[0074] Experiment 2: ApoE - / - After mice were fed a high-fat and high-protein diet for 3 months, 200 μL of P@Ce6 and HA-M@P@Ce6 at a concentration of 5 mg / kg were injected into the tail vein, respectively. As in experiment 1, the mouse aorta was taken out for fluorescence imaging 12 hours later.

[0075] Figure 7 The results show that the HA-M@P@Ce6 of the present invention is targeted to the atherosclerotic plaques in mice. Figure 7 As shown, compared with the Ce6 group, the HA-M@P@Ce6 group significantly aggregated at the aortic plaque, indicating that the bionic nanoformulation prepared in Example 1 can effectively target the atherosclerotic plaque site.

[0076] (4) Use HA-M@P@(Evol+Cur)NPs bionic nanoformulation for the treatment of Hcy-induced atherosclerosis.

[0077] ApoE - / -After mice were fed a high-fat, high-protein HMD+HFD diet for 3 months, the treatment groups were divided into Model group, Cur group, Evol group, Cur+Evol group and HA-M@P@(Evol+Cur) group. The specific groups are shown in Table 2. The drugs were administered twice a week for 3 consecutive months, during which a high-fat, high-protein diet was maintained. All drugs were administered via the tail vein. Three days after the end of the treatment, the aorta of the mice was stripped for sectioning and Oil Red O staining to examine the therapeutic effects of the different treatment groups.

[0080] Figure 8 The following are the gross staining pictures of blood vessels of different treatment groups of the present invention for the treatment of Hcy-induced atherosclerosis. Figure 8 As shown in the figure, in the HA-M@P@(Evol+Cur) treatment group, gross examination by surface Oil Red O staining showed that the arteries including the aortic arch, thoracic artery, abdominal artery and common iliac artery contained extensive atherosclerotic plaques throughout the arterial trunk after 12 weeks of HMD+HFD feeding. Compared with the Model group, lipid staining of the entire aorta was significantly increased, as shown in the figure. Figure 8 As shown, the ORO-stained aortic lipids observed in mice treated with HA-M@P@(Evol+Cur) were significantly reduced. Consistent with these results, ORO-stained sections of the aortic root in each group also showed that HA-M@P@(Evol+Cur) treatment had a stronger anti-atherosclerotic ability and significantly reduced homocysteine ​​levels. This indicates that the biomimetic nanoparticles constructed by the present invention can effectively treat atherosclerosis induced by high homocysteine.
