Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of nanomedicines, and in particular to a photothermal-photodynamic integrated antibacterial nanomedicine, a preparation method thereof, and an application thereof in the preparation of a biofilm-related keratitis drug. Background Art

[0002] Bacterial keratitis is one of the most important blinding eye diseases in the world. In recent years, the proportion of Gram-positive cocci has been on the rise, while the proportion of Gram-negative bacilli has been gradually decreasing. Currently, coagulase-negative Staphylococci and Pseudomonas aeruginosa are common pathogens of bacterial keratitis in my country, and the sensitivity of various genera to commonly used antibiotics has been declining. The treatment of bacterial keratitis should be controlled by drugs as early as possible to avoid corneal transplantation surgery, but the current drug treatment faces two major challenges:

[0003] (1) The types of antibacterial drugs are limited and the drug sensitivity is weak;

[0004] (2) Antibacterial drugs cannot effectively treat the biofilm protective barrier formed by long-term bacterial infection; therefore, the development of new antibacterial drugs for biofilm-related keratitis caused by bacterial infection is of great significance for the treatment of bacterial membrane keratitis.

[0005] Studies have shown that biofilms formed by the long-term infection of bacteria can be wrapped in an extracellular polymer (EPS) matrix, providing an isolated living environment for free bacteria, acting as a shield to protect parasitic bacteria from penetration and diffusion of antibiotic attacks, making treatment fundamentally face huge challenges. In addition, the formation of biofilms caused by more than 80% of bacterial infections requires a very high dose of antibiotics, up to 1,000 times the usual dose to be cured. Therefore, new antibacterial strategies are urgently needed to not only minimize the possibility of drug resistance, but also to effectively combat bacterial biofilm-related infections.

[0006] Photothermal therapy (PTT) is a promising treatment method with the advantages of non-invasiveness, high controllability, and broad-spectrum bactericidal properties. PTT converts absorbed light energy into heat energy, and the superheated environment (PTAs) generated by the photothermal agent can separate stubborn biofilms, thereby promoting the penetration of antimicrobial drugs. In addition, the local hyperthermic effect causes PTA, which can subsequently destroy the integrity of bacteria and interfere with the physiological functions of bacteria, leading to bacterial death. It is worth noting that PTT does not rely on the cell internalization of antibiotics to kill bacteria, so the possibility of drug resistance is low. All of the above advantages make PTT stand out among the methods for ablating bacterial biofilm-related infections. However, considering that PTT therapy needs to reach a higher temperature to have anti-biofilm and bactericidal effects, excessively high temperatures may cause a certain degree of corneal damage. How to balance efficacy and biosafety is a difficult problem faced by photothermal therapy. Therefore, the single use of photodynamic therapy to treat biofilm-related keratitis caused by bacterial infection still faces many challenges.

[0007] Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has the potential for clinical application with high specificity and low side effects, which can utilize reactive oxygen species (ROS) or singlet oxygen ( 1 O2) thus has the potential to kill bacteria in a short-term manner, which is produced by the combined effects of appropriate light irradiation, photosensitizer molecules and environmental oxygen. However, during PDT treatment, due to the hypoxic conditions in the biofilm microenvironment, insufficient oxygen supply may lead to 1 The O2 production is low and the PDT efficacy is reduced.

[0079] Example 1

[0080] The preparation method of the photothermal and photodynamic integrated antibacterial nanomedicine adopts the following steps:

[0081] 350 mL of ethanol solution was mixed with 7.5 mL of ammonia water and 15 mL of tetraethyl silicate solution and stirred for 5 to 6 hours. The sample was obtained by centrifugation, and methanol was used as a solvent. After high-speed centrifugation washing, the sample was freeze-dried in a vacuum to obtain silica nanospheres (SiO2) with a particle size of 100 nm.

[0082] Potassium permanganate and 0.3 g of silica nanospheres were dissolved in 30 mL of ultrapure water at a mass ratio of 1:1, reacted in an autoclave at 150°C for 24 hours, cooled for 12 hours, washed three times by high-speed centrifugation, and freeze-dried to obtain MnO2@SiO2 nanospheres.

[0083] 0.5 g of MnO2@SiO2 was first dissolved in 30 mL of ultrapure water and then dissolved in 20 mL of 0.5 g / mL sodium carbonate solution. The two were evenly mixed and stirred in an oil bath at 60°C for 12 hours, washed three times by high-speed centrifugation, and freeze-vacuum dried to obtain hollow manganese dioxide nanoparticles (HMnO2).

[0084] 0.3 g of hollow manganese dioxide and polyacrylamine hydrochloride (PAH) were mixed in a mass ratio of 2:1 in 40 mL of ultrapure water, stirred for 2 hours, and then centrifuged and washed at high speed. The synthesized PAH-HMnO2 was resuspended in 40 mL of ultrapure water, and then 50 mg of polyacrylic acid (PAA) was added and stirred for 2 hours, centrifuged and washed at high speed, and freeze-vacuum dried to obtain HMnO2-PAH / PAA. 50 mg of HMnO2-PAH / PAA was mixed with 0.4 M EDC and 0.1 M NHS in 40 mL of 2-morpholineethanesulfonic acid solution (EMS), stirred for 2 hours, and then 20 mL of 0.5 mg / mL DNase I solution was added. After stirring for 12 hours, it was centrifuged, collected, washed, and freeze-dried to obtain the sample HMnO2-DNaseI. The hollow manganese dioxide connected with DNase I was stirred with photosensitizer indocyanine green and ciprofloxacin in a mass ratio of 2:1:1 in an aqueous solution system under vacuum conditions for 24 hours to load indocyanine green and ciprofloxacin inside the hollow manganese dioxide. After high-speed centrifugal washing and freeze-drying, the photothermal and photodynamic integrated antibacterial nanomedicine (DNaseI-HMnO2@ICG@CIP) was obtained.

[0085] The microstructures of MnO2@SiO2 and hollow manganese dioxide nanoparticles were verified by transmission electron microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 The successful preparation of MnO2@SiO2 and hollow manganese dioxide nanoparticles was demonstrated.

[0086] The microstructure of the obtained DnaseI-HMnO2@ICG@CIP is shown in the figure Figure 2 shown.

[0087] The XPS spectrum of the obtained DnaseI-HMnO2@ICG@CIP is as follows Figure 3 The successful modification of ICG can be proved by the peak of sulfur element in XPS.

[0088] Test Example 1: Photothermal and photodynamic performance verification of nanomedicine

[0089] (1) Study the photothermal performance of DnaseI-HMnO2@ICG@CIP nanoparticles under near-infrared radiation: Nanoparticles of different concentrations (50, 100, 200 μg / mL) were dispersed in phosphate buffered saline and exposed to near-infrared light (1 W / cm 2 ) for 10 minutes, and a thermal imager was used to observe the photothermal effects of samples with different concentrations under near-infrared light irradiation.

[0090] The photothermal effects of samples with different concentrations under near-infrared light irradiation are shown in Figure 2. Figure 4 As shown. Figure 4 As can be seen from a in the figure, under infrared light, DnaseI-HMnO2@ICG@CIP shows concentration dependence. As the concentration increases, the temperature at the same time shows an increasing trend.

[0091] To further clarify the specific components that produce the PDT effect, experiments with different samples were conducted. Figure 4 As shown in b, compared with the control group, both increased under infrared irradiation. This is because HMnO2 has a certain photothermal effect. In addition, due to the loading of photosensitizer, DnaseI-HMnO2@ICG@CIP shows better photothermal efficiency than simple DnaseI-HMnO2 and HMnO2.

[0092] The on / off cycle heating scheme of DnaseI-HMnO2@ICG@CIP (100 μg / mL) is as follows Figure 4 As shown in c, it can be seen that DnaseI-HMnO2@ICG@CIP shows photothermal reversibility and recycling performance.

[0093] (2) Study on the generation of reactive oxygen species by DnaseI-HMnO2@ICG@CIP nanoparticles under near-infrared radiation:

[0094] 1,3-Diphenylisobenzofuran (DPBF) probe was used to detect 1O2 generation. Generally, DPBF has a characteristic absorption peak at 410 nm, and the intensity will be irreversibly reduced in the presence of 1O2. DPBF solution (1 mM, dissolved in ethanol) was mixed with 100 μM H2O2-containing DNaseI-HMnO2@ICGNPs ethanol solution (100 μg / mL) in a 1:1 volume ratio. The mixture was illuminated by NIR laser (808 nm, 1 W cm -2 ) and continuously irradiate the mixed solution at 410 nm every 2 minutes until the characteristic absorption peak almost disappears. The absorption spectra at different times are shown in Figure 2. Figure 5 As shown in a. It can be seen that when DPBF is co-incubated with the final nanodrug (DnaseI-HMnO2@ICG@CIP) suspension containing 100μM H2O2, the absorbance gradually decreases with time, indicating that 1O2 is produced, which is time-dependent.

[0095] Then, ethanol solutions of control group HMnO2 and DnaseI-HMnO2 were prepared, mixed with DPBF solution and irradiated under near-infrared light. The absorption peak at 410 nm was measured every two minutes. The absorption spectra at different times are shown in Figure 2. Figure 5 As shown in b.

[0096] Comparison of the consumption rates of DNaseI-HMnO2@ICG@CIP+H2O2 and DNaseI-HMnO2@ICG@CIP Figure 5 As shown in c. The DPBF consumption rate of DNaseI-HMnO2@ICG@CIP+H2O2 is faster than that of DNaseI-HMnO2@ICG@CIP. This phenomenon is attributed to the production of O2, which promotes the production of 1O2 by ICG.

[0097] By detecting the absorption spectra of different nanodrugs reacting with DPBF probes under near-infrared light, it can be proved that the nanodrug (DnaseI-HMnO2@ICG@CIP) has good photodynamic properties; by monitoring the heating effect of different samples under near-infrared light with a thermal imager, it can be proved that the nanodrug has excellent photothermal properties and photothermal stability.

[0098] Test Example 2: The lysis effect of nanomedicine on biofilm

[0099] Staphylococcus aureus was selected as a typical test bacterium. The bacterial strain was grown in a liquid culture medium at 37°C for 14 h. The bacteria were then collected by centrifugation (3000 rpm, 6 minutes) and washed three times with phosphate buffered saline. The obtained bacteria were redispersed in phosphate buffered saline, and the bacterial concentration was adjusted by an ELISA instrument to obtain a bacterial solution for the biofilm lysis effect test. The bacterial solution concentration was about 107 CFU / mL -1 Then the bacterial solution (10 7 CFU / mL -1 , Staphylococcus aureus, 600μL) were cultured in 6-well plates for 24 hours to form bacterial biofilms. The liquid culture medium containing bacteria was aspirated from the wells and rinsed once with phosphate buffer to prevent the adhesion of the biofilm. Then different nanomedicines (HMnO2-DNaseI, DnaseI-HMnO2@ICG@CIP, NIR+DnaseI-HMnO2@ICG@CIP, all at a concentration of 300μg / mL) were added to co-culture with the biofilm at 37°C for 12 hours. After washing 2 to 3 times with phosphate buffered saline, 100μL of methanol solution was added to each well for fixation, followed by staining with 1mL of crystal violet dye, incubated at room temperature for 30min, and gently washed with sterile phosphate buffered saline to remove excess staining. 1.0mL of 95% ethanol was added, and the optical density (OD) value of the homogenate was measured at 590nm to quantify the amount of remaining crystal violet-stained biofilm.

[0100] The anti-biofilm performance of nanomedicines is verified as follows Figure 6 shown. Figure 6 The crystal violet-stained microscope images clearly show that DnaseI-HMnO2@ICG@CIP has excellent biofilm lysis ability. Compared with the PBS group, the biofilm residues of HMnO2, HMnO2-DNaseI, DnaseI-HMnO2@ICG@CIP, and NIR+DnaseI-HMnO2@ICG@CIP all showed a downward trend, and NIR+DnaseI-HMnO2@ICG@CIP had the best effect. This is because DnaseI can still kill bacteria with light, heat, and drugs while lysing the biofilm.

[0101] Test Example 3: Verification of the bactericidal performance of nanomedicine

[0102] Staphylococcus aureus was selected as a typical test bacterium. The bacterial strain was grown in a liquid culture medium at 37°C for 14 h. The bacteria were then collected by centrifugation (3000 rpm, 6 minutes) and washed three times with phosphate buffered saline. The obtained bacteria were redispersed in phosphate buffered saline, and the bacterial concentration was adjusted by an ELISA instrument to obtain a bacterial solution for antibacterial effect testing. The bacterial solution concentration was about 10 7 CFU / mL -1 .

[0103] Before testing, all samples (control group, HMnO2, HMnO2-DNaseI, DnaseI-HMnO2@ICG@CIP, NIR+DnaseI-HMnO2@ICG@CIP) were sterilized.7 CFU / mL -1 , Staphylococcus aureus, 100 μL) were co-cultured with the nanodrug for 4 h for plating experiments.

[0104] The bactericidal performance verification results of nanomedicine are as follows Figure 7 As shown. Figure 7 It can be seen that by comparing the number of colonies on the bacterial culture plate, NIR+DnaseI-HMnO2@ICG@CIP has a significant decrease compared to the PBS group. This is because DnaseI has multiple functions, including photothermal and drug sterilization, while lysing the biofilm. The bacterial plating concentration gradient experiment proves that the final synthesized nanomedicine has good bactericidal efficacy at 50μg / mL.

[0105] Test Example 4 Animal Experiment

[0106] Under sterile conditions, 20 μL of Pseudomonas aeruginosa containing 10 to the eighth power colony forming units (CFU) was injected into the corneal stroma of C57 mice. The prognosis was analyzed by taking slit lamp and corneal transparency (ulcer area) comparison photos. The results are as follows: Figure 8 shown.

[0107] In the slit lamp image, the left image shows the scope and area of ​​corneal opacity and the regularity of the surface, while the right image is stained with sodium fluorescein to show the degree of corneal defect. Based on the clinical evaluation of the severity of BK in the above images, the following conclusions can be drawn: the cornea of ​​the control group was severely infected, with opacity and purulent changes in the central cornea. In addition, the slit lamp examination score and corneal thickness value increased rapidly, and obvious corneal opacity, stromal edema and other infection manifestations were seen, as well as a certain degree of corneal defect.

[0108] In the NIR+DnaseI-HMnO2@ICG@CIP treatment group, after seven days of treatment (eye drops three times a day, morning, noon and evening, 5 μL each time), the cornea was clear and there was no obvious corneal ulcer, showing an excellent therapeutic effect.

[0109] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present invention.
