Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of the preparation of bionic drug-loaded nanoparticles, and particularly relates to a method for constructing a bionic drug-loaded nano-system of a biological membrane, a microfluidic chip, and specifically relates to a method for constructing a bionic drug-loaded nano-system of a biological membrane by a microfluidic chip and the microfluidic chip. Background Art
[0002] Nano-drug carriers are advantageous technologies for solving existing tumor drugs. Nano-drug carriers are prepared by encapsulating drugs with nanoparticles. Nano-drug carriers have characteristics such as reducing the toxic and side effects of drugs, improving the hydrophobicity of drugs, enhancing the uptake of tumor cells, and enhancing the drug efficacy. However, current targeted nano-drug carriers still have problems such as ligand inactivation and immune clearance. Therefore, constructing a new type of targeted nano-system is the key to current research. In recent years, bionic drug-loaded nano-systems of biological membranes have received extensive attention. A bionic drug-loaded nano-system of a biological membrane is a nano-sized delivery carrier obtained by disrupting cells to obtain cell membranes and then coating or fusing them with drug-loaded nanoparticles.
[0003] A bionic drug-loaded nano-system of a biological membrane utilizes the homing property of cell membranes, which is affected by adhesion proteins on the cell membrane surface. The same type of cell membrane surface has the same adhesion protein molecules, which can recognize and aggregate with each other. At the same time, due to the presence of immune escape proteins on the cell membrane surface, immune clearance is avoided, realizing the targeted distribution of drugs in the body and enhancing the therapeutic effect.
[0004] The construction of a bionic drug-loaded nano-system of a biological membrane currently uses mechanical co-extrusion method, ultrasonic fusion method or electrostimulation fusion method. The mechanical co-extrusion method is to use mechanical force to disperse cell membranes and then recombine them with nanoparticles. However, the relatively large mechanical force in the preparation process is likely to cause damage to cell membrane proteins, thereby affecting the targeting efficiency.
[0005] The ultrasonic fusion method and the electrostimulation fusion method are prepared using microfluidic technology. The ultrasonic fusion method, such as the method for synthesizing biofilm nanoparticles using a microfluidic chip and the microfluidic chip in Chinese Patent CN 110560186B, includes the following steps: Step 1: Place the microfluidic chip in an ultrasonic bath and introduce a biofilm solution into the biofilm channel; Step 2: Introduce an organic solution containing a polymer into the polymer channel to mix the organic solution with the biofilm solution in the biofilm channel. The mixed solution flows through the first mixing channel and is split at the end of the first mixing channel to enter the first mixing channel respectively; Step 3: Introduce a PBS solution into the PBS channel to mix the PBS solution with the mixed solution output from the first mixing channel; Step 4: The PBS channel outputs the mixed solution to the second mixing channel. When the solution enters the second mixing channel, the polymer in the mixed solution is squeezed into the biofilm under the action of pressure and ultrasonic waves; Step 5: After the preparation is completed, the mixed solution containing biofilm nanoparticles is output from the second mixing channel to complete the preparation of biofilm nanoparticles. The electrostimulation fusion method, such as the method for preparing a one-step cell membrane biomimetic lipid nanoparticle disclosed in Chinese Patent CN 119098121A, is as follows: (1) Prepare lipid nanoparticle organic solvent, drug buffer solution and cell membrane buffer solution respectively; (2) Inject the lipid nanoparticle organic solvent, drug buffer solution and cell membrane buffer solution from the lipid nanoparticle inlet, drug inlet and cell membrane inlet respectively. The lipid nanoparticles in the lipid nanoparticle organic solvent and the drug in the drug buffer solution are mixed in the first mixing channel to form drug-loaded lipid nanoparticles, and the drug-loaded lipid nanoparticles are mixed with the cell membrane in the cell membrane buffer solution in the second mixing channel to form drug-loaded cell membrane-lipid nanoparticles; (3) The drug-loaded cell membrane-lipid nanoparticles are fused by alternating current stimulation in the electrostimulation channel to obtain the cell membrane biomimetic lipid nanoparticles.
[0006] Using microfluidic technology can achieve effective mixing and precise control between different components. However, the ultrasonic fusion method still has the problem of a wide particle size distribution of the prepared nanoparticles. The electrostimulation fusion method requires strict control of the alternating current electrode parameters. For different cell membranes, the alternating current electrode parameters used are likely to cause damage to the structure of cell membrane proteins and cannot achieve cell membrane biomimetic modification. Therefore, the existing methods for preparing biofilm biomimetic drug-loaded nanosystems have problems such as a wide particle size distribution of the nanoparticles, difficult parameter control, easy damage to the structure of cell membrane proteins, and low applicability, and cannot further achieve cell membrane biomimetic modification. Summary of the Invention
[0007] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the problems in the existing methods for preparing biofilm biomimetic drug-loaded nanosystems, such as a wide particle size distribution of the nanoparticles, difficult parameter control, easy damage to the structure of cell membrane proteins in the middle, and low applicability, and to provide a method for constructing a biofilm biomimetic drug-loaded nanosystem and a microfluidic chip.
[0008] To achieve the above-mentioned invention object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:
[0009] A method for constructing a biomimetic drug-loaded nanosystem of a biofilm, comprising the following steps:
[0010] S1. Prepare a nanoparticle solution and a biofilm solution. The nanoparticle solution includes a drug solution or a drug-loaded nanoparticle solution;
[0011] S2. Based on microfluidic technology, pump the biofilm solution and the nanoparticle solution prepared in step S1 into the inlets of a microfluidic chip respectively. In the solution mixing area of the microfluidic chip, mix the biofilm solution and the nanoparticle solution to obtain a mixed solution. After the mixed solution converges, it is successively introduced into at least two loading channels in the loading area of the microfluidic chip. In each loading channel, the mixed solution passes through a membrane with a pore size not greater than 2 μm multiple times, so that the biofilm and the drug or the drug-loaded nanoparticles in the mixed solution are fused into a biomimetic drug-loaded nanosystem of the biofilm;
[0012] S3. After the preparation is completed, collect the mixed solution containing the biomimetic drug-loaded nanosystem of the biofilm to obtain the biomimetic drug-loaded nanosystem of the biofilm.
[0013] In the above technical solution, the present application first prepares a nanoparticle solution and a biofilm solution. The drug solution is prepared by mixing a drug with an organic solvent or a drug with a buffer solution. The drug-loaded nanoparticle solution is prepared by mixing a drug, polymer nanoparticles, an organic solvent or a drug, polymer nanoparticles, and a buffer solution. The fusion of the biofilm and the drug or the biofilm and the drug-loaded nanoparticles is realized through a microfluidic chip. The inlets and outlets of the microfluidic chip are used to connect external pipelines to respectively input and output solutions. The solution mixing area is used to form a mixed solution of the input nanoparticle solution and the biofilm solution and input it into the loading area, improving the subsequent extrusion efficiency after mixing; the loading area is the key area for realizing the loading and fusion of the biofilm and the drug or the biofilm and the drug-loaded nanoparticles. In each loading channel, the mixed solution passes through a membrane with a pore size not greater than 2 μm multiple times. The biofilm in the mixed solution deforms when passing through the micropores on the membrane, wrapping the drug or the drug-loaded nanoparticles. Through the multiple actions of at least two loading channels, the full fusion of the biofilm and the drug or the biofilm and the drug-loaded nanoparticles is ensured to form a biomimetic drug-loaded nanosystem of the biofilm.
[0014] In the technical solution of the present invention, a microfluidic chip is used to construct a biomimetic drug-loaded nanosystem. After mixing the biomembrane solution and the nanoparticle solution, the mixture flows into the encapsulation area. By controlling the number of encapsulation channels, the number of times the mixed solution passes through the membrane, and the pore size of the membrane, the fusion time, fusion pressure, and encapsulation process between the biomembrane and the drug or drug-loaded nanoparticles are adjusted to achieve precise control of the preparation of the biomimetic drug-loaded nanosystem, thereby obtaining a uniform biomimetic drug-loaded nanosystem with controllable particle size and retaining the protein structure of the biomembrane, solving the problems in the prior art that the particle size distribution of nanoparticles in the preparation method is wide, the parameters are not easy to control, it is easy to cause damage to the structure of cell membrane proteins, and the applicability is not high. In addition, the concentration of the biomembrane solution, the concentration of the drug-loaded nanoparticles, and the solution flow rate in the microfluidic chip channels can be adjusted to achieve fine control of the particle size, drug loading amount, and membrane structure.
[0015] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, in step S2, the pumping speed of the nanoparticle solution is 20-80 μL / h; the pumping speed of the biomembrane solution is 40-200 μL / h, and the flow rate ratio of the nanoparticle solution to the biomembrane solution is 1:1.5-4.
[0016] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, in each of the encapsulation channels, the number of times the mixed solution passes through the membrane is 6-30, preferably 10-18.
[0017] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, when the mixed solution flows into different encapsulation channels, from the upstream to the downstream of the encapsulation channel, the pore size of the membrane through which the mixed solution passes in different encapsulation channels shows a decreasing trend. In the above technical solution, the pore size of the micro-holes of the membrane in different encapsulation channels shows a decreasing trend, resulting in inconsistent pressures between different encapsulation channels. Due to the inconsistent pressures, the biomembrane in the mixed solution will be squeezed to different degrees in different encapsulation channels. In the channels with smaller pore sizes, the pressure is higher, and the biomembrane is more obviously squeezed. By designing at least two encapsulation channels and the pore size of the membrane through which the mixed solution passes in different encapsulation channels shows a decreasing trend, it can fully ensure the structural deformation or rupture of the biomembrane in the mixed solution to fuse with the drug-loaded nanoparticles and improve the fusion efficiency.
[0018] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, three of the encapsulation channels are provided in the encapsulation area, namely the first-stage encapsulation channel, the second-stage encapsulation channel, and the third-stage encapsulation channel. A diaphragm is provided in each of the encapsulation channels, namely the first-stage diaphragm, the second-stage diaphragm, and the third-stage diaphragm. The aperture of the first-stage diaphragm is 0.5 to 2 μm, the aperture of the second-stage diaphragm is 0.2 to 1.2 μm, and the aperture of the third-stage diaphragm is 0.05 to 0.8 μm. The apertures of the first-stage diaphragm, the second-stage diaphragm, and the third-stage diaphragm show a decreasing trend. In the above technical solution, the apertures of the first-stage diaphragm, the second-stage diaphragm, and the third-stage diaphragm decrease. As the aperture of the diaphragm decreases, the resistance of the biofilm passing through the diaphragm increases, and it is not easy to pass through the diaphragm. Moreover, in the channel with a smaller aperture, the pressure is higher, and the extrusion of the biofilm is more obvious. However, excessive extrusion may affect the activity and function of the biofilm. For example, the protein structure in the biofilm may be damaged due to extrusion, affecting its metabolic activity or biological function. Therefore, by controlling the aperture of the first-stage diaphragm to be 0.5 to 2 μm, the aperture of the second-stage diaphragm to be 0.2 to 1.2 μm, and the aperture of the third-stage diaphragm to be 0.05 to 0.8 μm, it can not only ensure that the biofilm can pass through the diaphragm but also retain the protein structure of the biofilm, improving the fusion efficiency.

[0071] Embodiment 1
[0072] Multiple myeloma is a currently incurable blood tumor. Bortezomib is the main drug for the clinical treatment of multiple myeloma, but there are problems such as non-specific distribution, short half-life, and low stability. Nano-drugs are a favorable technology to improve the above problems. However, the current targeted nano-systems still have problems such as ligand inactivation and immune clearance. Therefore, constructing a new type of targeted nano-system is the key to current research. Since tumor cells have homologous targeting, the same adhesion molecules exist on the surface of the same type of tumor cells, which can recognize and aggregate with each other. Multiple myeloma has the property of bone marrow homing, which is affected by the adhesion proteins on the surface of myeloma cell membranes. The importance of biomimetic drug-loaded nano-systems in drug delivery has become increasingly prominent. By mimicking the membrane structure, nano-carriers can imitate the functions of cell membranes and have better biocompatibility, targeting, and stability. Therefore, how to efficiently construct such biomimetic drug-loaded nano-systems has become an important research direction in the field of nano-drug delivery. Microfluidic chips are technical tools with the characteristics of high precision, controllability, and high throughput. Through microfluidic technology, reaction conditions such as flow rate, temperature, and concentration of chemical components can be precisely controlled. Based on the above problems, this embodiment provides a method for constructing a biomimetic drug-loaded nano-system based on microfluidic technology, as Figure 1 shown, including the following steps:

[0077] Example 2
[0078] This embodiment provides a microfluidic chip. The microfluidic chip is provided with a closed microchannel cavity, and the microchannel cavity is provided with an inlet 6 and an outlet 7 communicating with the cavity; from upstream to downstream, the microchannel cavity includes a connected solution mixing area and a loading area, and the loading area includes at least two connected loading channels. Each loading channel includes at least two sub-loading channels arranged in parallel. A diaphragm is provided in each loading channel. Each sub-loading channel is distributed on both sides of the diaphragm and communicated through the diaphragm for allowing the mixed liquid to pass through the diaphragm multiple times; micro-holes are provided on the diaphragm, and the aperture of the micro-holes is not greater than 2 μm; from the upstream to the downstream of the loading channel, the aperture of the micro-holes on the diaphragm in different loading channels shows a decreasing trend.
[0079] As Figures 2 - 12 shown, the microfluidic chip adopts a multi-layer substrate structure, including a cover plate 1, a bottom plate 2, and a microchannel plate. The microchannel plate is arranged between the cover plate 1 and the bottom plate 2 to form a closed microchannel cavity. In this embodiment, both the inlet 6 and the outlet 7 are arranged on the cover plate 1. As Figure 3 shown, there are at least two inlets 6, and injection devices are arranged at the inlets 6, which can be used to precisely control each solution to be input at a specified flow rate and control the pumping speed of the solution.
[0080] In some embodiments, the microchannel plate includes an upper plate 3 and a lower plate 4. The solution mixing area is a mixing channel 31 arranged on the upper plate 3. As Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 shown, the upstream of the mixing channel 31 is communicated with the inlet 6, and the downstream of the mixing channel 31 converges the mixed liquid and is communicated with the loading area; the mixing channel 31 is at least one of a spiral shape, an S shape, a dendritic shape, a comb shape, and a ring shape. In this embodiment, the mixing channel 31 is in a dendritic shape, and the cross-section of the mixing channel 31 is a circular, semi-circular or square structure, and the inner diameter is 0.01 - 2 mm.
[0081] The loading area includes at least two connected loading channels, specifically three loading channels. Each loading channel includes at least two sub-loading channels arranged in parallel. Preferably, the number of sub-loading channels is 10 - 35, and the number of sub-loading channels in different loading areas can be different. A single loading channel shares the same diaphragm. A groove 41 is provided on the upper surface of the lower plate 4 for placing the diaphragm. The sub-loading channel includes a plurality of first through-hole structures 32 and second through-hole structures 42. A plurality of first through-hole structures 32 are arranged on the upper plate 3, and a plurality of second through-hole structures 42 are arranged on the lower plate 4. Figure 7 , Figure 8As shown, the number of the first through-hole structures 32 matches that of the second through-hole structures 42 and they are arranged in a staggered manner. In each encapsulation flow channel, the diaphragm is arranged between the upper plate 3 and the lower plate 4. The first through-hole structures 32 and the second through-hole structures 42 are distributed on both sides of the diaphragm and are connected through the diaphragm to form sub-encapsulation flow channels, constituting a three-dimensional micro-channel. The number of the first through-hole structures 32 and the second through-hole structures 42 is set to ensure that in each encapsulation flow channel, the mixed liquid passes through the diaphragm 6 to 30 times, preferably 10 to 18 times. In the above technical solution, there are many parallel sub-encapsulation flow channels in each encapsulation flow channel. Each sub-encapsulation flow channel is composed of the first through-hole structure 32, the second through-hole structure 42 and the diaphragm clamped in the middle. The number of the first through-hole structures 32 and the second through-hole structures 42 matches and they are arranged in a staggered manner. When the mixed liquid flows in the micro-hole encapsulation flow channel arranged on the sub-diaphragm, it reciprocally passes through the micro-holes from the first through-hole structure 32 to the second through-hole structure 42 and from the second through-hole structure 42 to the first through-hole structure 32, so as to realize the deformation of the biofilm in the mixed liquid when passing through the micro-holes on the diaphragm and fuse to wrap the drug or drug-loaded nanoparticles. More specifically, as Figure 9 , Figure 10 , the first through-hole structure 32 includes a first vertical hole, a first horizontal hole and a second vertical hole which are sequentially connected. The first vertical hole and the second vertical hole are vertically arranged on the upper plate 3, and the first horizontal hole is horizontally arranged on the upper surface of the upper plate 3. The second through-hole structure 42 includes a third vertical hole, a second horizontal hole and a fourth vertical hole which are sequentially connected. The third vertical hole and the fourth vertical hole are vertically arranged on the lower plate 4, and the third horizontal hole is horizontally arranged on the lower surface of the lower plate 4. The second vertical hole is connected to the third vertical hole through the micro-holes of the diaphragm, and the fourth vertical hole is connected to the first vertical hole through the micro-holes of the diaphragm.
[0082] In this embodiment, three encapsulation flow channels are arranged in the encapsulation area, namely a first-stage encapsulation flow channel, a second-stage encapsulation flow channel and a third-stage encapsulation flow channel. The front end of the first-stage encapsulation flow channel is connected to the end of the mixing flow channel 31, and the end of the third-stage encapsulation flow channel is connected to the outlet 7; diaphragms are arranged in each encapsulation flow channel, namely a first-stage diaphragm 51, a second-stage diaphragm 52 and a third-stage diaphragm 53. The pore diameter of the first-stage diaphragm 51 is 0.5 to 2 μm, the pore diameter of the second-stage diaphragm 52 is 0.2 to 1.2 μm, and the pore diameter of the third-stage diaphragm 53 is 0.05 to 0.8 μm, as Figure 11 , Figure 12, micro holes are provided on the first-stage diaphragm 51, the second-stage diaphragm 52, and the third-stage diaphragm 53. The micro holes are through holes. The pore diameters of the first-stage diaphragm 51, the second-stage diaphragm 52, and the third-stage diaphragm 53 show a decreasing trend to achieve the purpose of finally constructing a stable and uniform system. More preferably, the pore diameter of the first-stage diaphragm 51 is 0.6 - 1 μm, the pore diameter of the second-stage diaphragm 52 is 0.3 - 0.8 μm, and the pore diameter of the third-stage diaphragm 53 is 0.1 - 0.4 μm. Specifically, in this embodiment, the diaphragm is a polycarbonate membrane, the pore diameter of the first-stage diaphragm 51 is 800 nm, the pore diameter of the second-stage diaphragm 52 is 400 nm, and the pore diameter of the third-stage diaphragm 53 is 200 nm.
[0083] The cross-section of the sub-carrier channel is a circular, semi-circular or square structure, and the inner diameter is 0.01 - 2 mm. From the upstream to the downstream of the sub-carrier channel, the cross-sectional areas of the sub-carrier channels in different carrier channels show an increasing trend. In the above technical solution, the pore diameters of the micro holes of the diaphragm in different carrier channels show a decreasing trend. Such a setting makes the pressure of the mixed liquid increase as the pore diameter becomes smaller when the mixed liquid is extruded through diaphragms with different pore diameters. Therefore, the cross-sectional areas of different carrier channels gradually increase according to the user's needs to improve the extrusion filtration efficiency.
[0084] The cover plate 1 and the bottom plate 2 are made of conductive glass with an indium tin oxide coating. The indium tin oxide coatings on the inner sides of the cover plate 1 and the bottom plate 2 form a conductive layer for connecting an external power supply. The material of the microchannel plate is selected from any one or more of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), cycloolefin copolymer (COC), polycarbonate (PC), quartz, and glass. Based on soft lithography technology, a microchannel plate with a microchannel pattern is prepared and irreversibly sealed with the cover plate 1 and the bottom plate 2 to obtain a microfluidic chip.
[0085] Example 3
[0086] This embodiment provides a microfluidic chip, which is similar to Example 2, except that a microchannel liquid one-way valve is provided at the connection between the solution mixing area and the carrier area in this embodiment to control the introduction of the solution.
[0087] Example 4
[0088] This embodiment provides a microfluidic chip, which is similar to Embodiment 2. The difference is that in this embodiment, a first detection port is provided between the solution mixing area and the encapsulation area, and / or a second detection port is provided between different encapsulation channels, and / or a third detection port is provided between the end of the last encapsulation channel and the outlet. The first detection port, the second detection port, and the third detection port are used to detect the physical and chemical parameters in the channels. In the above technical solution, the pore diameters of the membrane micropores in different encapsulation channels show a decreasing trend, resulting in inconsistent pressures between different encapsulation channels. The first detection port, the second detection port, and the third detection port can be set at different positions of the microfluidic chip according to requirements, and an external sensor is connected to detect the physical and chemical parameters such as pressure and temperature in the channels, and the pressure in the channels is adjusted in real time according to the pressure in each area of the microfluidic chip to ensure the construction efficiency.
[0089] Embodiment 5
[0090] This embodiment is similar to Embodiment 1. Based on the microfluidic chip of Embodiment 2, a biofilm biomimetic drug-loaded nanosystem is constructed. PCEC (PCL-PEG-PCL) drug-loaded nanoparticles are selected as the core. The hydrophobic end inside the PCEC nanoparticles effectively loads the bortezomib (Bort) drug. The extracted multiple myeloma cell membrane is wrapped around the outer layer of the drug-loaded nanoparticles to prepare a tumor cell biomimetic nanosystem for the treatment of multiple myeloma, such as Figure 13 . The construction method includes the following steps:
[0091] S1. Prepare a drug-loaded nanoparticle solution and a biofilm solution. The nanoparticle solution is a drug-loaded nanoparticle solution.
[0092] The PCEC block copolymer is synthesized by ring-opening polymerization, and then anion PCEC nanoparticles are prepared by the emulsion solvent evaporation method. Specifically, a certain amount of PCEC powder and SDS emulsifier are respectively dissolved in an organic solvent and an aqueous solution, and are emulsified and dispersed to form an oil-in-water state (O / W). The organic solvent in the emulsion is evaporated by a rotary evaporator, and the droplets shrink and the polymer solidifies to form PCEC nanoparticles. According to the drug loading amount, a certain amount of Bort is weighed and dissolved in an organic solvent, and the PCEC nanoparticles are dissolved in an organic solvent. Then the two solutions are mixed and stirred, and the organic solvent in the emulsion is evaporated by a rotary evaporator to obtain drug-loaded nanoparticles. Then the drug-loaded nanoparticles are dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide to obtain a drug-loaded nanoparticle solution with a concentration of 0.2 mg / mL.
[0093] Multiple myeloma cells (5-TGM1) are extracted by the hypotonic technique and gradient centrifugation method. A certain amount of multiple myeloma cells are cultured, and the cell density is 5*10 6 ~5*10 7CFU / mL. After collection, it was washed three times with PBS, dispersed in the prepared hypotonic solution, and homogenized with a Dounce homogenizer. The homogenized liquid was centrifuged at 3200 g for 5 minutes, and the supernatant was taken. The precipitate was repeated the above homogenization and centrifugation operations, and the supernatants of the two times were combined and centrifuged at 20000 g for 20 minutes. 100000 g of the supernatant was centrifuged for 1.5 hours, and the lower transparent liquid was taken. Then it was washed once with a solution with a pH of 7.5 (10 mM Tris-HCl and 1 mM EDTA) to obtain a colorless and transparent liquid as the extracted cell membrane. The prepared cell membrane was dispersed into phosphate buffer to obtain a biomembrane solution, and the membrane protein concentration was 0.5 - 1 mg / mL.
[0094] S2. The biomembrane solution and the drug-loaded nanoparticle solution prepared in step S1 were respectively pumped into two inlets of the microfluidic chip. The biomembrane solution and the drug-loaded nanoparticle solution were mixed in the solution mixing area of the microfluidic chip to obtain a mixed solution. After the mixed solution converged, it was successively introduced into the encapsulation channels in the encapsulation area. In each encapsulation channel, the mixed solution passed through a membrane with a pore size not greater than 2 μm multiple times, so that the biomembrane and the drug-loaded nanoparticles in the mixed solution were fused into a biomembrane biomimetic drug-loaded nanoparticle system. During the preparation process, the pumping speed of the nanoparticle solution was 20 - 80 μL / h; the pumping speed of the biomembrane solution was 40 - 200 μL / h, and the flow rate ratio of the nanoparticle solution to the biomembrane solution was 1:1.5 - 4.
[0095] S3. After the preparation was completed, the mixed solution containing the biomembrane biomimetic drug-loaded nanoparticle system was collected at the outlet, and the solution was removed by evaporation or centrifugation to obtain the biomembrane biomimetic drug-loaded nanoparticle system.
[0096] When preparing the drug-loaded nanoparticles, drug-loaded nanoparticles with a theoretical drug loading of 10% were prepared. The concentration of drug Bort was detected by high performance liquid chromatography, and the result was the actual drug loading. The particle size distributions of the biomembrane biomimetic drug-loaded nanoparticle systems prepared from drug-loaded nanoparticles with different theoretical drug loadings were respectively tested. The particle size distribution and surface characteristics of the synthesized nanoparticles were analyzed by techniques such as TEM (transmission electron microscopy) and DLS (dynamic light scattering), and the results are shown in Table 1.
[0097] Table 1 Performance of drug-loaded nanoparticles and biomembrane biomimetic drug-loaded nanoparticle systems
[0098]
[0099] Among them, the particle size of the drug-loaded nanoparticles with a theoretical drug loading of 10% was 75 nm. The drug-loaded nanoparticles loaded with drugs had a stable particle size distribution. The particle size of the biomembrane biomimetic drug-loaded nanoparticle system obtained after being wrapped by the cell membrane was 105 nm, and the dispersion coefficient was less than 0.15, as Figure 14 , and the cell membrane was successfully wrapped on the surface of the drug-loaded nanoparticles.
[0100] In this embodiment, the biomimetic drug-loaded nanosystem selects PCEC drug-loaded nanoparticles as the core, and the extracted multiple myeloma cell membrane is wrapped around the outer layer of the drug-loaded nanoparticles to prepare a tumor cell biomimetic nanosystem for the treatment of multiple myeloma. This biomimetic drug-loaded nanosystem migrates into the bone marrow by mimicking bone marrow homing through the regulation of proteins on the cell membrane surface; targets tumor cells using the homologous targeting of surface molecules of tumor cells; and at the same time, escapes phagocytosis by the immune system due to immune escape proteins on the cell membrane surface, avoiding immune clearance.
[0101] Example 6
[0102] In this example, the method of Example 5 was used to test the flow rate conditions of the solution in the preparation of the biomimetic drug-loaded nanosystem. The drug-loaded nanoparticle solution with a theoretical drug loading of 10% and the biomembrane solution prepared by the method of Example 5 were respectively pumped into the inlets of the microfluidic chip of Example 2. The pumping speeds of the nanoparticle solution were adjusted to 40 and 80 μL / h respectively. When the pumping speed was 40 μL / h, the flow rate ratios of the drug-loaded nanoparticle solution to the biomembrane solution were adjusted to 1:1.25, 1:2.5, and 1:5 respectively. When the pumping speed was 40 μL / h, the flow rate ratios of the drug-loaded nanoparticle solution to the biomembrane solution were adjusted to 1:1.25, 1:1.5, and 1:1.5 respectively. The specific flow rate conditions are shown in Table 2. The biomimetic drug-loaded nanosystem was prepared by the construction method of Example 5. The biomimetic drug-loaded nanosystems prepared under the above different flow rate conditions were taken, and the particle size and dispersion coefficient of the biomimetic drug-loaded nanosystem under different flow rate conditions were detected by a dynamic light scattering instrument. The results are shown in Table 2.
[0103] Table 2 Flow rate conditions of the solution in the preparation of the biomimetic drug-loaded nanosystem and test results
[0104]
[0105] As can be seen from the above results, when the flow rate ratio of the nanoparticle solution to the biofilm solution is 1:1.5 - 4, the particle size of the biofilm biomimetic drug-loaded nanosystem is relatively stable, with the particle size in the range of 104 - 108 nm. When the flow rate ratio of the nanoparticle solution to the biofilm solution is less than 1:1.5, the particle size of the biofilm biomimetic drug-loaded nanosystem is larger, greater than 118 nm, and the dispersion coefficient is greater than 0.15, indicating that the particle size is uneven after the biofilm encapsulates the drug-loaded nanoparticles. When the flow rate ratio of the nanoparticle solution to the biofilm solution is greater than 1:4, the particle size of the biofilm biomimetic drug-loaded nanosystem is smaller. The possible reason is that the flow rate of the biofilm is too fast, and the drug-loaded nanoparticles are not fully incorporated into the cell membrane, resulting in the biofilm biomimetic drug-loaded nanosystem obtained by testing being closer to the particle size of the PCEC drug-loaded nanoparticles. Therefore, during the preparation process, the pumping speed of the nanoparticle solution is 20 - 80 μL / h; the pumping speed of the biofilm solution is 40 - 200 μL / h, and the flow rate ratio of the nanoparticle solution to the biofilm solution is 1:1.5 - 4.
