Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application relates to the technical field of biological medicine manufacturing, belongs to the patent classification A61K38 / 47, and specifically relates to a gynecological antibacterial gel and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the modern medical field, antibacterial gel as an important external preparation is widely used in the prevention and treatment of infections at skin, mucosa and other parts. Its main function is to form a protective barrier at the applied part to prevent bacteria from multiplying and spreading, and promote wound healing and recovery. Common antibacterial gels include silver ion antibacterial gel, iodine ion antibacterial gel, polymer antibacterial gel and the like. These different types of antibacterial gels have the functions of antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, hemostatic and the like, and can be used for treating various diseases and wounds such as burns, incisions, cuts and lacerations. In the gynecological field, the antibacterial gel is used for preventing and treating bacterial infections at the female vagina, cervix and other parts, and plays an important role in maintaining the health of the female reproductive system.
[0003] Lysozyme is a natural alkaline protein existing in body fluids such as human tears and saliva, belongs to the innate immune system, and is mainly produced by monocytes and neutrophils. It can specifically recognize and act on the bacterial cell wall, hydrolyze the peptidoglycan component in it, cause the bacterial cell wall to rupture, and the bacteria lose protection and die, so as to achieve the effect of dissolving bacteria, inhibiting the growth and reproduction of bacteria. At the same time, in the immune system of the body, lysozyme can also act as an immune regulator, enhance the phagocytic function of phagocytes, promote the activity of immune cells, and improve the resistance of the body to bacterial infection. Therefore, lysozyme is widely used in drug preparations, and is added to gel to make lysozyme antibacterial gel for local treatment of skin or mucosa. Related research shows that lysozyme has a good inhibition rate on multiple drug-resistant bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus, and because of its unique mechanism of directly destroying the bacterial cell wall, no drug resistance report has been reported so far. Adding lysozyme to the gynecological antibacterial gel can endow the gel with good antibacterial performance, effectively resist common bacteria causing gynecological inflammation, and help prevent and treat gynecological inflammation.
[0004] However, there is a key problem in the application of lysozyme to gynecological antibacterial gel at present, that is, the release of lysozyme in the gel system is too fast. The fast release makes it impossible for lysozyme to maintain an effective concentration at the action site for a long time, and cannot continuously and stably exert the antibacterial effect. In the treatment of gynecological inflammation, since the bacteria at the inflammation site persist and are easy to breed repeatedly, if the lysozyme is released rapidly, it is difficult to effectively inhibit and kill the subsequent breeding bacteria, resulting in incomplete treatment of inflammation, easy recurrence, and inability to achieve the ideal purpose of treating and preventing gynecological infection. Therefore, how to control the release speed of lysozyme in the gynecological antibacterial gel so that it can exert the antibacterial performance for a long time and stably becomes a problem to be solved. SUMMARY
[0005] The purpose of the present application is to provide a gynecological antibacterial gel and a preparation method thereof to solve the technical problem of fast release of lysozyme proposed in the above background art. The present application can delay the release speed of lysozyme in the gynecological antibacterial gel, so that it can exert the antibacterial performance for a long time and stably.
[0006] To achieve the above purpose, the present application provides the following technical solutions:
[0007] A gynecological antibacterial gel comprises A component and B component.
[0008] The A component comprises the following components by weight:
[0009] 20-30 parts of lysozyme sustained-release composite microspheres, 40-50 parts of cocamidopropyl betaine, 40-50 parts of cocoyl glucoside, 20-30 parts of lauryl glucoside, 5-10 parts of poloxamer, 20-30 parts of glycerol, 5-10 parts of carbomer, 1-3 parts of disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate, 0.5-1 part of triethanolamine, and 700-800 parts of deionized water.
[0010] The B component comprises the following components by weight:
[0011] 30-40 parts of propylene glycol, 1-5 parts of methyl paraben, and 1-5 parts of propyl paraben.
[0012] Preferably, the mass ratio of the A component to the B component is 10:1-2.
[0013] Preferably, the preparation method of the lysozyme sustained-release composite microspheres comprises the following steps:
[0014] S1, uniformly mixing D,L-lactide and glycolide to obtain a monomer mixture, adding polyethylene glycol to the monomer mixture, vacuum dehydrating, then adding stannous octoate catalyst, heating to complete reaction under nitrogen protection, and purifying and drying to obtain a triblock copolymer;
[0015] S2, the triblock copolymer is added into dichloromethane, stirred and dissolved to obtain an organic phase solution; the lysozyme, trehalose and sodium chloride are added into deionized water, stirred and dissolved to obtain an internal aqueous phase solution;
[0016] S3, the internal aqueous phase solution is slowly added into the organic phase solution under ice bath condition, ultrasonic emulsification is performed to form a primary emulsion;
[0017] S4, the polyvinyl alcohol is added into deionized water, heated, stirred and dissolved to obtain an external aqueous phase solution;
[0018] S5, the primary emulsion is slowly added into the external aqueous phase solution, stirred until the solvent is completely volatilized to form a stable multiple emulsion, then the lysozyme sustained-release composite microspheres are obtained through centrifugal separation, washing and drying.
[0019] In the technical scheme of the present application, the PLGA-PEG-PLGA triblock copolymer is synthesized by ring-opening polymerization, in which the PEG (polyethylene glycol) segment is combined with the lysozyme molecule through hydrogen bond to form a preliminary sustained-release mechanism, and the PLGA segment realizes the sustained release of the drug through the degradation rate control. In the process of preparing the microspheres, the internal aqueous phase solution containing lysozyme and the polymer organic phase solution are emulsified under low temperature condition by multiple emulsion method to form a stable W / O / W type multiple emulsion, and then the solvent is volatilized to obtain microspheres with compact structure. This method can protect the biological activity of lysozyme, and by adding trehalose as a protective agent and combining with ice bath operation condition, the active conformation of lysozyme is effectively maintained. The obtained microspheres have significant sustained-release characteristics, and the preliminary sustained release is realized through the hydrogen bond between PEG and lysozyme at the initial stage, and the sustained release is realized by the degradation of PLGA at the later stage. At the same time, the PEG segment enriched on the surface of the microspheres significantly enhances the adhesion of the microspheres to the mucosal tissue, prolonging the local residence time.
[0020] As a priority, in the step S1, the amount of polyethylene glycol added is 12-16% of the mass of the monomer mixture.
[0021] In the technical scheme of the present application, as described above, by embedding polyethylene glycol into PLGA to form a PLGA-PEG-PLGA triblock copolymer, the polyethylene glycol segment is combined with the lysozyme molecule through hydrogen bonding to form a preliminary lysozyme release mechanism. To achieve a good initial release mechanism, a sufficient amount of polyethylene glycol must be embedded in the PLGA-PEG-PLGA triblock copolymer. Therefore, the present application controls the polyethylene glycol addition amount to be greater than 12% of the mass of the monomer mixture. With the continued increase in the amount of polyethylene glycol, until the polyethylene glycol addition amount is greater than 16% of the mass of the monomer mixture, the present application team unexpectedly found that the strength of the lysozyme sustained-release composite microspheres prepared suddenly decreased significantly. In the subsequent external force stirring mixing process, the composite microspheres are easily broken. After research, it was found that this is because polyethylene glycol is a hydrophilic polymer, and when it is added in excess to PLGA, it will destroy the hydrophobic interaction and van der Waals force between the PLGA molecular chains. Due to the limited compatibility of PEG with PLGA, excessive PEG will form micro zone separation in the PLGA matrix, resulting in phase interface defects. These micro zones not only reduce the entanglement density of the PLGA molecular chain, but also cause stress concentration points to appear inside the material. When the microspheres are subjected to external force, these defect sites are prone to crack propagation, ultimately causing the microspheres to lose structural integrity and break. This phenomenon is particularly evident when the PEG addition amount exceeds 16%, which is manifested as a significant decrease in the mechanical strength of the microspheres. Therefore, the present application strictly controls the polyethylene glycol addition amount within the specified range, thereby balancing the release effect of lysozyme and the mechanical strength of the composite microspheres.
[0022] Preferably, in the step S2, the mass ratio of the triblock copolymer to lysozyme is 10:1-3.
[0023] Preferably, in the step S3, the ultrasonic emulsification time is 30-50s.
[0024] Preferably, in the step S4, the concentration of polyvinyl alcohol in the aqueous solution is 1-2wt%.
[0025] A preparation method of a gynecological antibacterial gel, comprising the following steps:
[0026] Mixing nipagin methyl ester, nipagin propyl ester and propylene glycol, heating to 70℃, stirring until completely dissolved, to obtain component B;
[0027] Add carbomer to deionized water, stir and dissolve, then add lysozyme sustained-release composite microspheres, continue to stir and disperse uniformly, then add cocamidopropyl betaine, cocoyl glucoside, lauryl glucoside, poloxamer, glycerol, disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate and triethanolamine, heat to 40℃, stir and dissolve uniformly to obtain component A;
[0028] The B component is added into the A component, and the mixture is stirred and mixed uniformly to obtain the gynecological antibacterial gel.
[0029] Compared with the prior art, the application has the following beneficial effects:
[0030] 1. The application synthesizes the PLGA-PEG-PLGA triblock copolymer by a ring-opening polymerization method, and prepares the lysozyme sustained-release composite microspheres by a multiple emulsion method, so that the multi-stage release mechanism of lysozyme is realized. In the early stage, the hydrogen bond between the PEG segment and lysozyme is used to form preliminary sustained release, and in the later stage, the controllable degradation of PLGA is used to realize sustained release, so that the gel can stably play the antibacterial activity in the vaginal environment for a long time, and the problems of the traditional lysozyme preparation, such as too fast release and short action time, are effectively solved.
[0031] 2. In the preparation process of the microspheres, trehalose is added as a protective agent and combined with ice bath operation to effectively maintain the active conformation of lysozyme.
[0032] 3. The application successfully balances the sustained release effect of lysozyme and the mechanical strength of the composite microspheres by strictly controlling the addition amount of polyethylene glycol in the specified range. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0109] Step S5: The primary emulsion was slowly dropped into the outer aqueous phase solution, and magnetically stirred (600 rpm) at room temperature for 6 hours to completely volatilize the dichloromethane. The re-emulsion was transferred to a centrifuge tube and centrifuged at 5000 rpm for 20 minutes, the supernatant was discarded, and the precipitate was washed with deionized water 3 times. Finally, the microspheres were dispersed in 50 mL trehalose solution (5 wt%), freeze-dried (-80°C pre-freezing for 4 hours, vacuum drying for 24 hours) to obtain lysozyme sustained-release composite microspheres.
[0110] The preparation method of the gynecological antibacterial gel comprises the following steps:
[0111] Nipagin methyl ester, nipagin propyl ester and propylene glycol were mixed and heated to 70°C, and stirred (300 rpm) until completely dissolved to obtain component B;
[0112] Carbomer was added to deionized water and stirred to dissolve (400 rpm), then the lysozyme sustained-release composite microspheres were added, and the stirring was continued to disperse uniformly, and then cocamidopropyl betaine, cocoglycoside, lauryl glucoside, poloxamer, glycerol, disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate and triethanolamine were added, and heated to 40°C, stirred and dissolved uniformly to obtain component A;
[0113] Component B was added to component A and stirred for 15 minutes (800 rpm) to ensure uniform mixing. After standing and degassing for 30 minutes, the gynecological antibacterial gel was obtained.

[0122] Performance test:
[0123] 1. Lysozyme sustained-release performance test: using a dialysis bag method (molecular weight cutoff 8000), 10 mg of microspheres were placed in a dialysis bag and immersed in 50 mL of PBS buffer (pH 7.4, containing 0.1% Tween-80) at 37°C constant temperature oscillation (100 rpm). 5 mL of sample was taken at 1 h, 4 h, 12 h, 24 h, 3 d, and 7 d (replenished with an equal amount of fresh PBS), and the absorbance at 280 nm was measured by ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry. The cumulative release rates at 24 h and 7 d were calculated. The release rate at 24 h was used to represent the initial sustained-release effect of lysozyme, and the release rate at 7 d was used to represent the overall sustained-release effect of lysozyme. The test results are shown in Table 1.
[0124] 2. Lysozyme activity retention rate test: using the micrococcus turbidity method, the microsphere dissolution solution (containing 1 mg of lysozyme) was mixed with the micrococcus suspension (OD600 = 0.5) and reacted at 37°C for 10 minutes. The OD600 drop value was measured, and the activity retention rate (%) was calculated by comparing with the activity of free lysozyme (activity retention rate (%) = (activity of lysozyme in microspheres / activity of free lysozyme) x 100%). The test results are shown in Table 1.
