Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of biological materials, in particular to a cross-linked amniotic membrane acellular matrix filling material and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] The amniotic membrane acellular matrix is a biological material derived from the placental amniotic membrane and left after special treatment to remove the cellular components. Its core is to retain the extracellular matrix structure and biological active components of the amniotic membrane. The amniotic membrane acellular matrix is widely used in tissue repair and regenerative medicine due to its natural three-dimensional structure, low immunogenicity and rich biological active components such as collagen and laminin. However, the natural acellular matrix has low mechanical strength, fast in vivo degradation (usually 1-2 weeks), and is difficult to maintain long-term structural support, which limits its application in filling materials and other mechanical stable scenes.

[0003] To solve the foregoing problems, the prior art often uses cross-linking technology to improve the mechanical properties of the amniotic membrane decellularized matrix. For example, Chinese patent CN106860919B discloses a cross-linked decellularized amniotic membrane and its preparation method and application. By cross-linking treatment of the decellularized amniotic membrane with water-soluble carbodiimide, the problems of insufficient mechanical strength and biological stability are solved, more effective skin repair and cell proliferation are achieved, and the preparation efficiency and biocompatibility of the skin substitute are improved. The specific cross-linking method is as follows: water-soluble carbodiimide is added to the buffer solution (MES buffer solution) in which the soaked amniotic membrane is located, and the concentration of the carbodiimide is 0.01-0.1 mmol / mg, and the cross-linking reaction is carried out in a constant temperature incubator at 37±0.5℃ with a rotation speed of 28-32 rpm for 1-10 min; distilled water is used for cleaning, and vacuum freeze-drying is performed to obtain the cross-linked decellularized amniotic membrane. At the same time, the patent technology of document CN117159814A discloses a cross-linked amniotic membrane material and its preparation method and application. First, the fetal membrane chorion layer is separated by mechanical method, and the sponge layer and amniotic membrane layer are retained, denoted as amniotic membrane / sponge layer. The amniotic membrane / sponge layer is cleaned and dried, and then placed in a low-concentration cross-linking agent solution for cross-linking. The cross-linking agent used in the cross-linking agent solution is any one of an epoxide cross-linking agent, a dialdehyde cross-linking agent, EDC / NHS or genipin. The patent technology of document TWI324520B discloses a method for using cross-linked amniotic membrane as a bio-material, which includes the following steps: a, obtaining amniotic membrane, taking the amniotic membrane out of the frozen storage and thawing; cross-linking the amniotic membrane by using a cross-linking method, and the cross-linking agent used is EDC. Chinese patent CN120022424A discloses water-soluble carbodiimide and N-hydroxysuccinimide (EDC / NHS) as chemical cross-linking agents for cross-linking the amniotic membrane decellularized matrix. The specific method is as follows: the concentration of the cross-linking solution is 0.5-2%, the concentration of the water-soluble carbodiimide is 0.5-2%, the concentration of the N-hydroxysuccinimide is 0.125-0.5%, the mass ratio of the water-soluble carbodiimide to the N-hydroxysuccinimide is 4:1, the mass / volume ratio of the amniotic membrane to the cross-linking solution is 1:2, and the cross-linking time is 12-48 h, and the solution is replaced every 24 h. Although the above technologies solve the problem of low mechanical strength of the amniotic membrane material without cross-linking, they still have obvious defects, including but not limited to:

[0004] Firstly, the reaction conditions required for cross-linking are harsh (strong acid / high temperature), which destroys the natural biological active factors (such as growth factors, collagen structure) of the ECM;

[0005] Secondly, the cross-linking speed is slow (several hours to several days), which makes it difficult to achieve clinical instant operation;

[0006] Finally, residual toxicity or non-degradability causes inflammatory reactions.

[0007] Therefore, there is a need to improve the prior art. SUMMARY

[0102] The S2-S4 steps were the same as in Example 1.

[0103] Test Example 1

[0104] The purpose of this example is to test the performance of the samples prepared in each example and comparative example, including:

[0105] 1.1 Mechanical strength test

[0106] A universal material testing machine (Instron 5967) was used for testing, and according to the test method of the universal material testing machine (Instron 5967), the specific process of the mechanical strength test was as follows:

[0107] The finished products of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-8 were cut into uniform sizes (20 mm long x 5 mm wide x 1 mm thick), and the number of samples in each group was 6 (n=6). The clamp distance was set to 10 mm during testing, and the stretching was performed at a constant rate of 5 mm / min. The core indicators detected included tensile strength (MPa), elongation at break (%), and elastic modulus (GPa). The experimental results are shown in Table 1.

[0108] Table 1 Mechanical strength test of each group of samples

[0109]

[0110] The above experimental results show that:

[0111] Examples 1-3 formed a stable three-dimensional network structure due to the complete HA / CaCl2 pretreatment, MA functionalization, and RGD-PEG crosslinking process, and the tensile strength, elongation at break, and elastic modulus were significantly better than all the comparative examples. Among them, Example 2 used a higher concentration of methacrylic anhydride (2% MA) and longer ultraviolet irradiation (405 nm, 15 minutes) to form a denser crosslinked network, and the mechanical properties were the best.

[0112] Comparative Example 1 had the worst mechanical properties due to the lack of crosslinking, and Comparative Example 2 obtained a certain strength through PEG-DA crosslinking, but due to the lack of RGD-mediated cell-matrix interaction, it was still significantly lower than the examples. This experimental result shows that RGD peptides enhance the stability of the network by participating in photopolymerization.

[0113] Comparative Examples 3-8 were tested for the conditions of pretreatment, wherein Comparative Examples 3-4 and Comparative Examples 5-6 proved that both HA and CaCl2 synergistically optimized the functionalization efficiency of the amniotic membrane acellular matrix by exposing the collagen crosslinking sites and enhancing the hydrophilicity during the pretreatment process, and HA and CaCl2 were indispensable during the pretreatment process. Comparative Example 7 and Comparative Example 8 further tested the calcium chloride concentration in the presence of HA, and the experimental results showed that the calcium chloride concentration needed to be ≥0.001 mol / L to effectively activate the crosslinking sites, and at the same time, too high a concentration of calcium chloride would also lead to deterioration of the crosslinking effect.

[0114] 1.2 In vivo degradation test

[0115] SD rats were used as animal models (male, 200 ± 20 g), which were randomly divided into 11 experimental groups (each group corresponds to one test material, and the sample number n = 6 in each group). The pre-prepared standardized material samples (uniform size of 5 mm × 5 mm × 1 mm) were implanted into the subcutaneous tissue of the back of each group of rats.

[0116] At two preset time points of 4 weeks and 12 weeks after the operation, 3 rats corresponding to each group were sacrificed and the implants were removed, and morphological observation and degradation rate calculation were performed, specifically:

[0117] Morphological observation: detailed record of the physical state change of the implant, including material structural integrity (whether fragmentation or dissolution) and surrounding tissue reaction (such as neovascularization and growth into the material inside).

[0118] The removed implants were weighed, the residual mass of the sample after removal was accurately weighed, and the degradation rate was calculated, and the calculation method was:

[0119] Degradation rate = ((initial implant mass - residual mass) / initial implant mass) × 100%.

[0120] The experimental results are shown in Table 2.

[0121] Table 2 In vivo degradation test results of samples in each group

[0122]

[0123] The above experimental results show that the synergistic crosslinking system of Examples 1-3 effectively delays degradation, and the 12-week degradation rate is significantly lower than that of the other example groups. Among them, Comparative Example 1 is almost completely degraded at 12 weeks, and the degradation rate of each comparative example within 12 weeks is more than 50%, and such crosslinked wool acellular matrix has significant defects in applications requiring long-term structural support.

[0124] The above examples are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application but not limit the present application. Although the present application is described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present application can be modified or equivalently replaced without departing from the purpose and scope of the present application, and all should be covered in the scope of the claims of the present application. The technical, shape and structure parts not described in detail in the present application are all known technologies.
