Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of immune preparations, and in particular relates to a method for preparing a ginseng selenium polysaccharide nanocarrier loaded with doxorubicin that has the functions of immunomodulation and inhibition of liver cancer cells. Background Art

[0002] Doxorubicin (DOX), as an anthracycline chemotherapy drug, is a first-line anti-tumor drug currently in clinical use and has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of gastric cancer, breast cancer, thyroid cancer, and ovarian cancer. However, the side effects of long-term use of DOX limit the scope and dosage of its disease treatment. Long-term use of DOX may cause damage to tissues, organs, and the immune system, especially to the heart, liver, and kidneys. In order to reduce the side effects of DOX and expand its therapeutic range and dosage, DOX is loaded into a new type of ginseng selenium polysaccharide nanocarrier with immunomodulatory effects to achieve a pH-responsive release effect in the tumor area, which can significantly reduce its toxic side effects and improve the safety and effectiveness of DOX in clinical treatment.

[0003] Ginseng polysaccharides have the effect of promoting the proliferation and differentiation of human immune cells. In clinical applications, they are mainly used to enhance immune function, fight cancer, reduce the side effects of chemotherapy, and curb tumor spread and regeneration. By grafting inorganic selenium with ginseng polysaccharides to synthesize ginseng selenium polysaccharides, the antioxidant, anti-tumor, and immune-enhancing biological activities of ginseng polysaccharides and selenium can be combined at the same time, making them synergistic and having higher pharmacological activity.

[0004] Polysaccharide self-assembled nanoparticles are an efficient and low-toxic drug delivery system that can aggregate in water to form a stable structure through non-covalent bonds between substances. The rich functional groups of polysaccharides make them easy to modify, and their good biocompatibility and biodegradability also make them an ideal raw material for preparing nanoparticles.

[0005] Although the direct combination of ginseng selenium polysaccharide and DOX can reduce side effects such as immunosuppression, due to the lack of specific recognition ability of DOX for tumor cells, it shows a wide systemic distribution in the body, resulting in low accumulation efficiency of the drug in tumor tissues. At the same time, it is widely distributed in normal tissues such as the heart, bone marrow, and gastrointestinal tract, causing severe dose-limiting toxicities such as cardiotoxicity and myelosuppression. This non-selective distribution not only reduces the anti-tumor efficacy of the drug but also exacerbates the systemic toxic reaction, limiting its clinical application dose and treatment course. Meanwhile, the poor targeting of DOX may also lead to insufficient drug concentration in the tumor microenvironment, potentially inducing drug resistance in tumor cells and further weakening the long-term treatment effect. Cardiotoxicity is the most significant dose-limiting toxicity of DOX, mainly caused by free radical generation, iron ion-mediated oxidative stress, and mitochondrial dysfunction, resulting in irreversible myocardial damage and heart failure, severely limiting the cumulative dose and long-term use of the drug. In addition, DOX acts widely on rapidly proliferating cells by intercalating into DNA and inhibiting topoisomerase II, causing myelosuppression, manifested as a decrease in white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets, further increasing the risks of infection, anemia, and bleeding. DOX exerts toxic effects on rapidly proliferating immune cells (such as T cells, B cells, macrophages, and dendritic cells) by intercalating into DNA and inhibiting topoisomerase II, resulting in a decrease in their numbers and impaired functions, thus weakening the body's adaptive immune response and antigen presentation ability, leading to immunosuppression of the immune system. DOX also further exacerbates the immunosuppressive state in the tumor microenvironment by inducing tumor cells to release immunosuppressive factors (such as TGF-β and IL-10), promoting the expansion of regulatory T cells (Tregs) and myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), and inhibiting the anti-tumor activities of effector T cells and natural killer cells (NK cells). This immunosuppressive effect not only limits the therapeutic effect of DOX but also may increase the risk of tumor recurrence and metastasis. Therefore, the immunosuppressive effect of DOX highlights its duality in anti-tumor treatment: on the one hand, it directly kills tumor cells, and on the other hand, it weakens the body's immune defense ability. And the above problems all need to be overcome by combining immunotherapy or developing a new delivery system. Summary of the Invention

[0008] I. Extraction, separation, and purification of ginseng polysaccharide:

[0009] Using ginseng as raw material, crude ginseng polysaccharide was extracted by water extraction and alcohol precipitation method.

[0017] Third, preparation of ginseng selenized polysaccharide - deoxycholic acid amphiphilic polymer:

[0018] Weigh deoxycholic acid, 4 - dimethylaminopyridine and 1 - ethyl - (3 - dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide, dissolve them in dimethyl sulfoxide, and react for 1 hour at room temperature using a magnetic stirrer to obtain an activation reaction solution;

[0019] Weigh the ginseng selenized polysaccharide and dissolve it in 1 mL of dimethyl sulfoxide to obtain a ginseng selenized polysaccharide solution. Then, gradually add the activation reaction solution dropwise and carry out the grafting reaction at room temperature for 48 hours. After the reaction, add anhydrous ethanol, let it stand for layering, and then centrifuge to obtain a precipitate. Wash the precipitate, redissolve it in deionized water, and then perform dialysis treatment with distilled water. Collect the solution and perform freeze-drying to obtain the ginseng selenized polysaccharide-deoxycholic acid amphiphilic polymer;

[0022] The content of ginseng selenized polysaccharide in the ginseng selenized polysaccharide solution is 0.008-0.012 g / L;

[0108] When washing the precipitate, it is washed with absolute ethanol and ether respectively, and the washing is repeated three times;

[0109] The molar ratio of deoxycholic acid, 4-dimethylaminopyridine, and 1-ethyl-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide is 1:1:1.2; the mass fraction of deoxycholic acid in the activation reaction solution is 30 - 70%;

[0110] The volume ratio of the activation reaction solution to the Se-GPS solution is 0.8 - 1.2:1;

[0111] The content of Se-GPS in the said Se-GPS solution is 0.008 - 0.012 g / L;

[0112] IV. Preparation of ginseng selenium polysaccharide nanocarriers by dialysis method:

[0113] Weigh Se-GPS-DOCA and dissolve it in dimethyl sulfoxide to obtain a mixed solution with a concentration of 1 mg / mL. Then, use distilled water for dialysis to remove dimethyl sulfoxide, followed by sonication for 10 min. Finally, dilute the liquid with double-distilled water to 5 times the volume of the initial mixed solution to obtain ginseng selenium polysaccharide nanocarriers (SGD NPs); through test analysis, the critical micelle concentration CMC value of SGD NPS is 0.14 mg / mL; the particle size is 78.07 ± 1.59 nm, and the PDI is 15.8 ± 1.0%.

[0114] V. Preparation of doxorubicin-loaded ginseng selenium polysaccharide nanoparticles:

[0115] Dissolve 5 mg of doxorubicin (DOX) and SGD NPs in 1 mL of dimethyl sulfoxide to obtain a mixed solution. Then, use distilled water for dialysis to remove dimethyl sulfoxide, followed by sonication for 10 min. Finally, dilute the liquid with double-distilled water to 5 times the volume of the initial mixed solution to obtain DOX / SGD NPs;

[0116] The mass ratio of the said SGD NPs to DOX is 18 - 22:1;

[0117] The ratio of the mass of the said SGD NPs to the volume of dimethyl sulfoxide is 8 - 12 mg:1 mL;

[0118] The DOX / SGD NPS obtained in Step V of Example 1, through test analysis, the particle size of DOX / SGD NPs is (112.49 ± 1.89) nm, the PDI is (25.1 ± 0.7)%; the Zeta potential is -18.31 mV.

[0119] Figure 1 It is the infrared spectrogram of Se-GPS obtained in Example 1; among them, the absorption peak at 3421.2 cm -1 is the O-H stretching vibration peak of ginseng polysaccharide, and the absorption peak at 2916.4 cm -1 is the C-H stretching vibration peak of the methylene group of ginseng polysaccharide. The absorption peak at 1652.7 cm -1 is the O-H bending vibration absorption peak of ginseng polysaccharide, and at 1413.3 cm -1 , 1373.4 cm -1 , 1241.4 cm -1 , 1154.7 cm -1 , 1078.8 cm -1 , 1015.1 cm -1The absorption peaks at etc. are the C-N or C=O stretching vibration peaks in ginseng polysaccharide. After adding sodium selenite, the product retains the characteristic peaks of the above-mentioned ginseng polysaccharide, indicating that the main structure of ginseng polysaccharide is retained in the product. At the same time, new absorption peaks appear at 1047.3 cm -1 and 670.6 cm -1 . The absorption peak at 1047.3 cm -1 is the O-Se-O stretching vibration peak, and the absorption peak at 670.6 cm -1 is the Se-O-C stretching vibration peak. In summary, it is not difficult to judge that selenium has been successfully modified on ginseng polysaccharide, and the possible form is selenate ester.

[0120] Figure 2 is the XRD pattern of Se-GPS obtained in Example 1. Both ginseng polysaccharide and selenium-enriched ginseng polysaccharide have C characteristic peaks near 20°. Among them, compared with ginseng polysaccharide, a new characteristic peak appears near 42.5° in the selenium-enriched polysaccharide, and this peak coincides with the characteristic peak of selenium element. Combining with the infrared spectrum, it further proves that ginseng polysaccharide has been successfully selenium-enriched.

[0121] Figure 3 is the infrared spectrum of Se-GPS-DOCA obtained in Example 1. The infrared characteristic absorption peaks of Se-GPS appear in the spectrum. Among them, 3400.5 cm -1 is the O-H stretching vibration peak on Se-GPS, and the peak at 1151.4 cm -1 is the characteristic absorption peak of the β-glycosidic bond of Se-GPS. The vibration absorption peak at 1239.1 cm -1 is the stretching vibration absorption peak of C-O-C on Se-GPS, and the peak at 672.9 cm -1 is the Se-O-C absorption peak of Se-GPS. In addition to the above characteristic absorption peaks of Se-GPS, a C=O stretching vibration peak of ester carbonyl appears at 1744.8 cm -1 , and a strong symmetric stretching vibration peak of methylene C-H appears at 2858.1 cm -1 . This fully shows that the carboxyl group on deoxycholic acid has undergone esterification with the hydroxyl group on the sugar, indicating that deoxycholic acid has been grafted onto the hydroxyl group of Se-GPS, and Se-GPS-DOCA is successfully prepared.

[0122] Figure 4XRD pattern of Se-GPS-DOCA obtained in Example 1; Se-GPS shows a blunt peak near 22°, while DOCA shows multiple sharp absorption peaks in the range of 10° - 25°. Different from Se-GPS and DOCA, Se-GPS-DOCA shows a blunt peak near 30°, and the blunt peak near 45° becomes smaller compared to Se-GPS, indicating a change in its crystal form. Combining with the infrared spectrum, it further demonstrates the successful synthesis of Se-GPS-DOCA.

[0123] Figure 5 Critical micelle concentration result graph of SGD NPS obtained in Example 1; Based on the amphiphilic polymer micelles of ginseng selenized polysaccharide, the amphiphilic copolymer Se-GPS-DOCA is self-assembled from the hydrophilic segment Se-GPS and the hydrophobic segment DOCA in water to form core-shell structured nanoparticles. It has a low CMC value (0.14 mg / mL), and the CMC value of this micelle is much lower than 2.3 mg / mL of the low molecular weight surfactant SDS. This indicates that it has good stability and can ensure a complete nanostructure even at a low concentration, which is beneficial for protecting the loaded drug and preventing the micelle from dissociating during in vivo circulation and accurately delivering it to the liver cancer tissue.

[0124] Figure 6 Appearance graph of DOX / SGD NPS obtained in Example 1; Blank SGDNPs (a) is a clear and transparent liquid, and DOX / SGDNPs are clear light orange-red liquids in both pH 7.4 (b) and pH 5.0 (c) buffer solutions. In contrast, DOX / SGD NPs are slightly turbid in the medium of pH 5.0, which may be due to the breakage of the hydrophilic layer of the micelle, resulting in the precipitation of the drug. When the solution medium is pH 5.0 buffer solution, the particle size of DOX / SGD NPs is (112.49 ± 1.89) nm, and the PDI is (25.1 ± 0.7)%; when the solution medium is pH 7.4 buffer solution, the particle size of DOX / SGD micelles is (103.5 ± 3.9) nm, and the PDI is (21.16 ± 0.8)%. The blank particle size is (78.07 ± 1.59) nm, and the PDI is (15.8 ± 1.0)%. After drug loading, the particle size increases slightly, which is due to the fact that DOX is loaded into the hydrophobic core of SGD NPs through van der Waals force interaction, resulting in an increase in volume.

[0125] Figure 7Potential result graph of DOX / SGD NPS obtained in Example 1; the Zeta potential of DOX / SGD NPs is -18.31 mV. This is because the ginseng polysaccharide purified in this study is an acidic polysaccharide with a negative charge and a relatively large absolute value. It can be preliminarily determined that the micelle has good stability. In addition, since cell membranes usually carry a negative charge, negatively charged DOX / SGD NPs are not easily recognized and phagocytosed by macrophages, thus prolonging the in vivo circulation time.

[0126] Figure 8 Stability result graph of DOX / SGD NPS obtained in Example 1; the stability results show that the drug loading and particle size of DOX / SGDNPs in PBS (pH 7.4) solution (in the dark) do not change significantly within 30 days, indicating that DOX / SGD is relatively stable within 30 days.

[0127] Figure 9 XRD spectrum of DOX / SGD NPS obtained in Example 1; there are a large number of sharp peaks of DOX in the range of 10° - 40°. These peaks can also be observed in the physical mixture powder of free DOX and Se-GPS-DOCA. It shows that the crystal state of DOX in the physical mixture has not changed. However, when DOX is encapsulated into SGD NPs, these sharp crystallization peaks disappear, and its peak shape is similar to that of SGD NPs, which is significantly different from the physical mixture of DOX and Se-GPS-DOCA. This indicates that DOX in DOX / SGD NPs is not in a crystal state or a molecular diffusion state. The transformation of the drug from a crystal to an amorphous drug will contribute to faster dissolution and release of the drug because the crystal lattice energy is lower and the thermodynamic energy is higher. Therefore, it can be concluded from the analysis of the XRD pattern that DOX is successfully loaded into SGD NPs rather than in a simple physical mixture form.

[0128] Figure 10 and Figure 11 TEM image (300 nm) and SEM image (1 μm) of DOX / SGD NPS obtained in Example 1; TEM and SEM results show that the morphology of the nanoparticles is spherical, well-dispersed, without aggregation, and the particle size is about 100 nm.

[0129] Figure 12Figure showing the in vitro release results of DOX / SGD NPS obtained in Example 1; within 36 h, the release amount of DOX reached over 60% under the condition of pH 5.0. Under acidic conditions, the solubility of DOX increased, the ester bonds were broken, and the interaction between the nanoparticles and DOX weakened, resulting in the rapid release of DOX. While under the condition of pH 7.4, the release of DOX was less than 30%. This phenomenon may be attributed to the hydrophobic interaction between DOX and the nanoparticles, reflecting the stability of DOX / SGD NPs under normal physiological pH conditions. Based on the above experimental phenomena, it can be reasonably inferred that the micelles are in a relatively stable state (pH 7.4) in normal human cell tissue fluid. When the micelles are in a weakly acidic environment, the release rate of DOX accelerates. The reason for this phenomenon is that the ester bonds break in the acidic environment, the core structure of the micelles is disordered, and the hydrophobic DOCA block extends towards the hydrophilic outer shell of the micelles, causing the micelles to dissociate and release DOX.

[0130] Figure 13 Figure showing the hemolytic evaluation of DOX / SGD NPS obtained in Example 1; no obvious hemolysis phenomenon occurred in DOX / SGD micelles at various concentrations. When the concentration was as high as 2 mg / mL, the hemolysis rate was still less than 2%, indicating that DOX / SGD has good blood compatibility and the safety of intravenous administration.

[0131] Figure 14 Figure showing the ability of DOX / SGD NPS obtained in Example 1 to phagocytose RAW264.7 cells; in the experiment, the control group was only given 100 μL of culture medium without adding any drugs or treatment substances, which was used to evaluate the basic phagocytic ability of RAW264.7 cells without intervention. Compared with the control group, the phagocytosis of macrophages was inhibited in the DOX (89.28%) and DOX / SGD NPs (94.37%) groups; the phagocytosis of macrophages was enhanced in the Se-GPS (152.83%) and SGD NPs (159.09%) groups. Compared with Se-GPS, the phagocytic ability of SGD NPs on macrophages increased significantly (P < 0.01), mainly because it has a smaller particle size and can more significantly stimulate the activity of macrophages. DOX has an immunosuppressive effect, and after loading it into SGD NPs to form DOX / SGD NPs, the immunosuppressive effect was significantly reduced (P < 0.05).

[0132] Figure 15Effect diagram of DOX / SGD NPS obtained in Example 1 on the secretion of NO by RAW264.7; in the experiment, the blank control group was only given 100 μL of culture medium without adding any drugs or treatment substances, which was used to evaluate the ability of RAW264.7 cells to secrete NO without intervention. Compared with the untreated macrophages as the blank control group, both Se-GPS (13.90 μM) and SGD NPs (14.32 μM) significantly promoted the secretion of NO content, and compared with Se-GPS, SGD NPs had a stronger effect on the secretion of NO by macrophages (P < 0.01), proving that nanonizing macromolecular polysaccharides can significantly enhance the immune effect of Se-GPS. And ginseng selenized polysaccharide has a stronger immune-stimulating activity on macrophages, indicating that selenized polysaccharide has better immunomodulatory activity. Compared with the blank control group (5.84 μM), the NO secretion in the DOX (3.96 μM) group was significantly reduced, indicating its immunosuppressive effect. After loading it into micelles to prepare DOX / SGD NPs (4.41 μM), the NO secretion increased and the immunosuppressive effect was significantly reduced (P < 0.01).

[0133] Figure 16 Effect diagram of DOX / SGD NPS obtained in Example 1 on the survival rate of hepatocellular carcinoma cells HepG2; DOX / SGDNPs inhibited the growth of HepG2 cells more significantly than SGD NPs (40.68%), indicating that after preparing Se-GPS into SGD NPs micelles, the tumor suppression effect was significantly increased (P < 0.001). Compared with free DOX (63.75%) and Se-GPS (29.02%), DOX / SGD NPs (68.38%) showed a higher inhibition rate. It shows that loading DOX into SGD NPs can significantly improve the inhibitory effect of DOX on the proliferation of hepatocellular carcinoma cells HepG2 (P < 0.01), which may be due to the synergistic effect of DOX and ginseng selenized polysaccharide.
