Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of natural polymer material modification and its application technology, and specifically relates to a 3D bioprinting matrix material based on zein, its preparation method and application, and more specifically to a zein-Planick F127 graft and its preparation method and its application in 3D bioprinting. Background Technology

[0002] Tissue engineering scaffolds can provide a suitable extracellular matrix environment for cell growth, improving cell retention and survival rates. Commonly used methods for constructing tissue engineering scaffold materials include vacuum freeze-drying, gas foaming, particle dissolution, electrospinning, and 3D bioprinting. Among these, 3D bioprinting has received widespread attention due to its advantages such as high precision in material construction and the ability to achieve personalized designs according to specific needs.

[0003] Zein is a large-molecule protein derived from the natural plant corn. It has good biocompatibility and has attracted attention from scholars at home and abroad in recent years as a tissue engineering scaffold material. However, its strong hydrophobicity limits its application as a matrix material for 3D bioprinting.

[0004] Pluronic F127 is a polyoxyethylene-polyoxypropylene-polyoxyethylene (PEO-PPO-PEO) triblock copolymer, a polymer approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for human use. It exhibits reverse thermosensitivity; below the critical temperature, the polymer solution is in a sol state, while at high temperatures it becomes a gel. However, its disadvantages include the fact that its molecular chain segments are biologically inert, and the material itself lacks the ability to promote cell adhesion and proliferation. Furthermore, its gelation concentration is relatively high, requiring a concentration greater than 18% (w / v) to gel. High-concentration F127 has a denser pore structure, which is not conducive to the exchange of cellular nutrients and metabolites. In addition, high-concentration F127 can damage the body in vivo. For example, Zhao et al. (PloS noe, 2013, 8(8):73178) reported that F127 damaged the cornea when used in ophthalmic treatment. Most current studies use F127 to be blended with other substances to improve the biocompatibility of the material, but it is difficult to reduce the concentration of F127 used.

[0005] The present invention aims to construct a thermosensitive gel material with good biocompatibility and stability and apply it to the field of 3D bioprinting. Summary of the Invention

[0006] In order to overcome the shortcomings and deficiencies of the prior art, the primary objective of this invention is to provide a 3D bioprinting matrix material based on zein.

[0021] Furthermore, the mass ratio of Prönnik F127 to bromoalkynylene used can be 1:0.1-1:10. The reaction time can be reflux for 6-24 hours. The reaction is preferably carried out in an organic solvent environment, such as tetrahydrofuran.

[0022] Furthermore, the reaction is carried out under the catalysis of a strong base, such as sodium hydride, sodium hydroxide, or potassium hydroxide. The amount of strong base used can be 20-50 wt% of the mass of Prönnicke F127.

[0023] Furthermore, after the reaction is complete, the supernatant is separated and precipitated with diethyl ether to obtain the product; and it can be further dried.

[0024] In the technical solution of the present invention, the polypeptide-modified zein can be obtained by reacting zein with γ-2-azidoethyl-L-glutamate N-carboxylic acid anhydride through ring-opening polymerization.

[0026] Furthermore, the reaction solvent can be N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF); the reaction is carried out under an inert gas atmosphere, such as nitrogen. The reaction can be carried out at room temperature, preferably with stirring for 1-5 days.

[0027] Furthermore, after the reaction is complete, diethyl ether is added to precipitate the product; and the product can be further dried under vacuum to obtain the final product.

[0028] Furthermore, the γ-2-azidoethyl-L-glutamate N-carboxylic acid anhydride can be prepared by conventional methods.

[0029] Secondly, the present invention provides a method for preparing the above-mentioned 3D bioprinting matrix material.

[0030] This invention first obtains polypeptide-modified zein through ring-opening polymerization of N-carboxylic acid anhydride monomers, and then grafts Pluronic F127 onto the polypeptide chain segments to obtain a 3D bioprinting matrix material that has a significantly reduced critical gel concentration, excellent biocompatibility, is safe and non-toxic, and has excellent mechanical properties, meeting the requirements and application scenarios of 3D printing.

[0031] Thirdly, the present invention also provides the application of the above-mentioned 3D bioprinting matrix material in 3D bioprinting, particularly for the preparation of cell scaffold materials by 3D printing technology.

[0074] The products and scaffolds prepared in the examples were tested:

[0075] (1) Nuclear magnetic resonance analysis of the 3D bioprinting matrix material of the present invention. Figure 1 ZF-2, the 3D bioprinting matrix material in Example 2, was used in d 6 The NMR spectrum in DMSO clearly shows the NMR peaks of zein and the F127 structure, confirming the successful synthesis of the zein-F127 graft. Other examples yielded similar results, which will not be detailed here.

[0076] (2) The 3D bioprinting matrix material of the present invention was dissolved in PBS (pH=7.4) and its gelation state was observed under different temperature conditions. Figure 2 This is a state diagram of a 10wt% solution of the ZF-2 3D bioprinting matrix material from Example 2. As can be seen from the diagram, at room temperature, the material solution of this invention is in a flowable sol state, while at body temperature it transforms into a gel state, exhibiting excellent temperature sensitivity.
