Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of sepsis, and specifically relates to a drug for treating sepsis-related encephalopathy and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction syndrome caused by an imbalance in the body's stress response to infection. After sepsis occurs, various inflammatory cells in the body, including macrophages and endothelial cells, become activated, producing large amounts of free radicals, which in turn damage the function of various organs. Approximately 31 million patients are diagnosed with sepsis each year worldwide. It is the leading cause of hospitalization and death in intensive care units worldwide. Approximately 70% of sepsis patients develop brain dysfunction.

[0003] Sepsis-related encephalopathy is a serious complication of the central nervous system caused by sepsis. It is a diffuse brain dysfunction caused by non-intracranial infection, also known as septic brain injury. It has high mortality and disability rates, mainly characterized by impaired consciousness. It involves pathological processes such as changes in blood-brain barrier permeability, neuroinflammation, and oxidative stress. The main manifestations are altered consciousness such as delirium and coma, and include attention deficit, anxiety, abnormal behavior, disorientation, confusion, paralysis, drowsiness, coma, extensor rigidity, and peripheral nerve dysfunction.

[0004] Neuroinflammation is an important part of sepsis-related encephalopathy. The body produces a large amount of lipopolysaccharide that acts on vascular endothelial cells, activates microglia, and produces proinflammatory cytokines. For sepsis-related pathological inflammation, the use of antibiotics is still the main means; apigenin is a flavonoid compound extracted from celery. It is widely found in some vegetables, fruits, plant-based beverages, condiments and some medicinal plants, especially in celery. Apigenin can downregulate the expression of proinflammatory cytokines and adhesion molecules, but apigenin only exists in food in the form of glycosides, has low water solubility, and poor oral bioavailability. After ingestion, most apigenin is excreted or not absorbed, or is rapidly metabolized after absorption and does not show activity in the body.

[0005] The main problems with the current existing technologies are as follows: antibiotics have obvious toxic side effects, plant extracts are poorly absorbed and have poor efficacy, and there are no safe and effective therapeutic drugs. Summary of the Invention

[0006] In view of the above situation, in order to overcome the defects of the prior art, the present invention provides a drug for treating sepsis-related encephalopathy and a preparation method thereof. In order to solve the problem of poor absorption and poor efficacy of plant extracts, the present invention proposes to improve the absorption effect by modifying apigenin and preparing nanomicelle loading, and at the same time compound it with salidroside to achieve synergistic enhancement, thereby achieving improved therapeutic effect.

[0011] (2) Saturated ammonium chloride solution was added dropwise to the reaction solution obtained in step (1) to quench the reaction, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate three times. The organic phases were combined, washed with saturated brine three times, dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate to remove moisture, and then concentrated under reduced pressure and purified to obtain modified apigenin.

[0017] S2. Add the intermediate product obtained in S1 to tetrahydrofuran, then add succinic anhydride and 4-dimethyliminopyridine, mix well, stir in a water bath, add 0.1 times the volume of deionized water to stop the reaction, extract with dichloromethane and saturated sodium chloride solution in sequence, collect the organic layer, dry, remove the solvent by rotary evaporation, wash with petroleum ether, and purify to obtain a carboxyl derivative;

[0067] Comparative Example 1

[0068] This comparative example provides a drug, which differs from Example 1 only in that the drug does not contain nanomicelles, and the remaining components and component contents are the same as those in Example 1.

[0073] Experimental example

[0074] 1. Cytotoxicity Test

[0075] Zebrafish embryos fertilized for 3 hours were randomly divided and transferred to 24-well plates, with 50 eggs per well. The volume of the culture medium was 2 mL. Examples 1-3 and Comparative Example 1 were added to form the experimental group, and the concentration of salidroside reached 100 μg / mL. An equal concentration of physiological saline was added to form the blank group. Three wells were set up in each group. The embryos were treated and cultured in a constant temperature and humidity incubator at 28.5° C. for 3 days. The survival rate of the eggs on the third day was then calculated using the following formula:

[0076] Survival rate = number of surviving eggs in the experimental group / number of surviving eggs in the blank group × 100%.

[0077] Figure 1 The results of the cytotoxicity test of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Example 1 are shown in the figure. As shown in the figure, after 3 days, the survival rates of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Example 1 are 91%, 93%, 92%, and 63%, respectively; the survival rate of Comparative Example 1 is significantly lower than that of Examples 1-3, indicating that the preparation of nanomicelles reduces the toxicity of high-concentration drugs to cells.

[0078] 2. Response Testing

[0079] 5 mg of each of Examples 1-3 was added to 5 mL of 0.1% H2O2 and deionized water, and quickly transferred to a dialysis bag and immersed in 50 mL of deionized water. The mixture was shaken at 37°C and 100 rpm. After 24 h, the release amount of salidroside in deionized water was measured by spectrophotometry, and the release rate was calculated using the following formula:

[0080] Release rate = release amount / initial drug loading × 100%.

[0081] Figure 2 This is the result of the response test of Examples 1-3. As shown in the figure, after 24 hours, the release rates of Examples 1-3 in H2O2 solution and deionized water are 65.9%, 66.3%, 66.1% and 21.6%, 22.5%, 21.9%, respectively; the release rate of Examples 1-3 in H2O2 solution is significantly higher than that in deionized water, and the prepared drugs have good responsiveness.

[0082] 3. Mouse Testing

[0083] Ten-week-old C57BL / 6 wild-type mice were selected, and the cecum was ligated with a No. 3 suture at a position approximately 1 / 2 of the length of the cecum. After ligation, a No. 8 needle was used to penetrate the end of the cecum twice, a small amount of intestinal contents was squeezed out at the needle hole, and the cecum was returned to the abdominal cavity to prepare a sepsis mouse model. The mice were randomly divided into groups, with 50 mice in each group, and treated with Examples 1-3, Comparative Examples 1-3, and normal saline intravenous injection, respectively. The neurobehavioral changes of the mice were evaluated. The evaluation content included five contents: escape reflex, corneal reflex, righting reflex, auricular reflex, and tail flick reflex. 0 was considered to be no reflex, 1 was considered to be a weakened reflex (if no reflex appeared within 10 seconds), and 2 was considered to be normal reflex. A neurobehavioral reflex score of ≤6 was recorded as a neurobehavioral change, and the neurobehavioral change rate of each group was calculated using the following formula:

[0084] The rate of neurobehavioral changes = the number of mice with neurobehavioral changes / the total number of mice × 100%.

[0085] Figure 3 The results of the test on mice in Example 1-3, Comparative Example 1-3 and the normal saline group are shown in the figure. As shown in the figure, after 3 weeks, the neurobehavioral change rates of Example 1-3, Comparative Example 1-3 and the normal saline group were 12%, 14%, 10%, 43%, 51%, 56% and 76%, respectively; the neurobehavioral change rate of Example 1-3 was significantly lower than that of Comparative Example 1, indicating that the preparation of nanomicelles effectively reduced the neurobehavioral change rate, the neurobehavioral change rate of Example 1-3 was significantly lower than that of Comparative Example 2, indicating that the modification of apigenin effectively reduced the neurobehavioral change rate, the neurobehavioral change rate of Example 1-3 was significantly lower than that of Comparative Example 3, indicating that the use of salidroside improved the therapeutic effect of the drug.
