Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of active substance delivery systems, and in particular to a recombinant collagen composite nanoliposome with highly efficient intradermal deep delivery, its preparation method and application. Background Technology
[0002] Recombinant collagen is a humanized protein produced using genetic engineering technology and is an important anti-aging and repairing ingredient in the cosmetics industry. Compared with animal-derived collagen, its advantages lie in its higher biocompatibility, greater safety, and avoidance of animal-derived disease risks. In skincare products, recombinant collagen (especially type I and type III) not only has excellent moisturizing properties but also promotes the synthesis of the skin's own collagen and inhibits its degradation through signal transduction, thereby exerting firming, anti-wrinkle, and barrier-repairing effects.
[0003] As a biological macromolecule, recombinant collagen faces fundamental challenges in transdermal absorption. The core issue lies in its enormous molecular weight (typically tens of thousands of Daltons) and strong hydrophilicity, which directly clashes with the strongly hydrophobic physical barrier of the stratum corneum, the outermost layer of the skin. Therefore, recombinant collagen struggles to efficiently diffuse through this dense structure; the vast majority remains on the skin's surface, providing moisturizing effects, but fails to effectively penetrate the dermis to directly achieve its crucial anti-aging and repairing effects of promoting collagen regeneration. This is the main technical bottleneck restricting its ability to maximize its skincare efficacy.
[0004] Liposomes are artificially prepared tiny spherical vesicles. In water, the hydrophilic head of the phospholipid molecule is inserted into the water, while the hydrophobic tail of the liposome extends into the air. After stirring, a spherical liposome with a bilayer of lipid molecules is formed, with a diameter ranging from 25 to 1000 nm.
[0005] Because human skin has a natural barrier function, the transdermal penetration and active absorption of components are significantly affected and restricted, thus greatly reducing or weakening the biological effects and therapeutic efficacy of active substances. Liposomes, similar in structure to biological membranes, can increase the permeability of active substances into the stratum corneum, preventing the active ingredients from losing their efficacy due to insufficient penetration. Simultaneously, liposomes can remain in the stratum corneum, slowly releasing active substances into the epidermis, enhancing their sustained efficacy. Furthermore, liposomes themselves are non-toxic, can biodegrade autonomously in vivo, and do not cause skin irritation, making them an ideal carrier for skin care and cosmetic applications.
[0006] Supramolecular technology studies the spontaneous assembly of molecules into ordered, functional structures through non-covalent interactions (such as hydrogen bonds, van der Waals forces, and hydrophobic interactions). By adding appropriate "eutectic components" and "ionic salts," the self-assembly of protein molecules can be achieved, thereby forming ordered nanoscale supramolecular particles that enhance their ability to penetrate the skin barrier.
[0007] While existing technologies, such as liposome encapsulation and supramolecular co-crystallization, have precedents for improving the permeability of biomolecules like collagen, neither single technology can achieve the desired encapsulation and permeation effects. Furthermore, liposome encapsulation technology suffers from a common problem: the long-term stability of liposomes in water. Liposomes stored in water for extended periods are prone to aggregation, fusion, or premature leakage.
[0008] Therefore, developing liposome-based material delivery systems with better encapsulation, higher penetration efficiency, and greater long-term stability in water is a problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention
[0009] In view of the above-mentioned technical problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a composite nanoliposome with better encapsulation effect, higher permeation efficiency and more stable long-term preservation in water, its preparation method and application.
[0010] Polyquaternium-51, CAS: 125275-25-4, chemically named 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphocholine polymer, has been included in the "Catalogue of Used Cosmetic Raw Materials". Polyquaternium-51 exhibits good hydrophilicity and biocompatibility, and has been widely used in cosmetics. Its applications mainly include: (1) In the skin care category, it is used as a long-lasting moisturizing ingredient in products such as face cream, lotion, and serum to enhance the skin's hydration ability.
[0011] (2) It is used as a hair conditioning agent in hair care products such as conditioners and styling products to reduce frizz and enhance the smoothness of hair.
[0012] (3) It is used as a texture improver in sunscreen and makeup products to improve product texture and give it a silky feel.
[0013] The inventors conducted in-depth research to solve the above-mentioned technical problems and discovered that polyquaternium-51 can form a new encapsulation layer on the surface of liposomes. This encapsulation layer can simultaneously improve the encapsulation effect, permeation efficiency, and long-term storage stability in water of liposome-based material delivery systems, thus completing the present invention.
[0014] That is, the present invention includes: The first aspect of the present invention is a composite nanoliposome comprising: A. A liposome having a closed lipid bilayer and contents encapsulated within the closed lipid bilayer; and B. A polyquaternium-51 layer encapsulating the liposomes.
[0015] In this specification, a liposome is a microvesicle formed by encapsulating contents within a lipid bilayer, and its particle size can be 10–1000 nm.
[0016] There are no special restrictions on the lipid components that form the lipid bilayer, as long as they can form a lipid bilayer. These components may include, but are not limited to, one of lecithin, hydrogenated lecithin, phosphatidylcholine, hydrogenated phosphatidylcholine, or any mass ratio of these components.
[0017] There are no particular restrictions on the contents encapsulated within the closed lipid bilayer. These contents typically contain the active substance to be delivered, which may include, but is not limited to, proteins, such as recombinant collagen. The recombinant collagen may be selected from one or a combination of several common types, such as recombinant type I collagen, recombinant type II collagen, recombinant type III collagen, recombinant type IV collagen, recombinant type V collagen, recombinant type VI collagen, recombinant type VII collagen, and recombinant type XVII collagen, preferably recombinant type I collagen, recombinant type III collagen, recombinant type XVII collagen, or combinations thereof. The recombinant collagen may be a full-length chain of recombinant natural collagen, a truncated or spliced full-length chain of natural collagen, or a repeat of natural collagen fragments. The molecular weight of the recombinant collagen may be between 10,000 Daltons and 200,000 Daltons.
[0018] The proteins in the contents preferably form supramolecular proteins. These supramolecular proteins are self-assembled into stable protein structures with nanoparticle sizes by adding one or more salts or alcohols to alter the surface charge of the protein. The salts can be, for example, betaine, sodium chloride, phosphates, ammonium sulfate, magnesium sulfate, etc.; the alcohols can be, for example, polyols such as propylene glycol, glycerol, pentanediol, etc.
[0019] There are no particular limitations on the method for preparing liposomes by encapsulating the contents with lipid components; both active and passive drug delivery methods can be used. Specific preparation methods include, but are not limited to, thin-film dispersion, reverse evaporation, ultrasonic treatment, injection, and microfluidics. Among these, microfluidics, which precisely controls the mixing process of lipids and the aqueous phase through micron-level channels, can prepare well-dispersed nanoscale liposomes. This technology has a high degree of automation and is suitable for industrial production.
[0020] There are no particular limitations on the method for encapsulating the surface of the liposomes with a polyquaternium-51 layer. For example, a certain concentration of polyquaternium-51 aqueous solution can be added to an aqueous solution containing liposomes in a certain proportion and mixed thoroughly. Here, the concentration of the polyquaternium-51 aqueous solution can be, for example, 0.5 to 15% by weight, preferably 1 to 10% by weight, more preferably 2 to 8% by weight, more preferably 3 to 7% by weight, more preferably 4 to 6% by weight, for example, 5% by weight. Here, the aqueous solution containing liposomes can contain 3 to 30% by weight, preferably 7 to 20% by weight, more preferably 6 to 15% by weight, more preferably 5 to 10% by weight of liposomes. Here, the volume ratio of the polyquaternium-51 aqueous solution to the aqueous solution containing liposomes can be, for example, 1:100 to 1:5, preferably 1:50 to 1:8, more preferably 1:30 to 1:10. Here, there are no particular limitations on the method for thoroughly mixing the polyquaternium-51 and the liposomes, as long as they can be thoroughly mixed. For example, a stirring method can be used, with stirring speeds of 50 rpm to 1000 rpm, preferably 100 rpm to 800 rpm, more preferably 200 rpm to 700 rpm, even more preferably 400 rpm to 600 rpm, such as 500 rpm; and stirring time of 1 min to 120 min, preferably 5 min to 90 min, even more preferably 10 min to 60 min, such as about 30 min.
[0021] A second aspect of the present invention is a cosmetic or topical preparation comprising the composite nanoliposomes described in the first aspect of the present invention. The cosmetic or topical preparation may be, for example, a face mask, lotion, serum, liquid, facial cleanser, shampoo, moisturizer, or sunscreen. The cosmetic or topical preparation may also contain other ingredients, such as preservatives. The preservatives are additives added to ensure a longer shelf life and inhibit microbial growth, selected from polyols, nitrocellulose esters, organic acids and salts, preferably polyols, and more preferably one or a combination of pentylene glycol, hexanediol, and octanediol.
[0022] The third aspect of the present invention is a method for preparing the composite nanoliposomes described in the first aspect of the present invention. This preparation method includes: adding an aqueous solution of polyquaternium-51 to an aqueous solution containing liposomes and mixing them.
[0023] Here, the concentration of the polyquaternium-51 aqueous solution can be, for example, 0.5-15% by weight, preferably 1-10% by weight, more preferably 2-8% by weight, more preferably 3-7% by weight, more preferably 4-6% by weight, for example 5% by weight. The aqueous solution containing liposomes can contain 3-30% by weight, preferably 7-20% by weight, more preferably 6-15% by weight, more preferably 5-10% by weight of liposomes. The volume ratio of the polyquaternium-51 aqueous solution to the aqueous solution containing liposomes can be, for example, 1:100-1:5, preferably 1:50-1:8, more preferably 1:30-1:10. There are no particular limitations on the method of thoroughly mixing the polyquaternium-51 and the liposomes, as long as they can be thoroughly mixed. A stirring method can be used, for example, with stirring speeds of 50 rpm to 1000 rpm, preferably 100 rpm to 800 rpm, more preferably 200 rpm to 700 rpm, even more preferably 400 rpm to 600 rpm, such as 500 rpm; and stirring time of 1 min to 120 min, preferably 5 min to 90 min, even more preferably 10 min to 60 min, such as about 30 min. Whether it is "fully mixed" can be determined, for example, by measuring the particle size of the obtained composite nanoliposomes to be <400 nm and / or the homogeneity to be <0.3.
[0024] The preferred method for preparing the composite nanoliposomes is a method for preparing recombinant collagen composite nanoliposomes, which preferably includes: (1) Add salts and / or alcohols to the recombinant collagen solution to form a supramolecular protein solution, which is the aqueous phase; (2) Dissolve the lipid components in an organic solvent to form a lipid component solution, which is the lipid phase; (3) The aqueous phase and the lipid phase are mixed to form an aqueous solution containing liposomes, the contents of which contain recombinant collagen; and (4) Add the aqueous solution of polyquaternium-51 to the aqueous solution containing liposomes and mix them to obtain the recombinant collagen composite nanoliposomes.
[0025] The salts added in step (1) can be, for example, betaine, sodium chloride, phosphate, ammonium sulfate, magnesium sulfate, etc.; the alcohols added can be, for example, propylene glycol, glycerol, pentanediol, etc., polyols. The recombinant collagen in step (1) can be selected from one or a combination of several common types such as recombinant type I collagen, recombinant type II collagen, recombinant type III collagen, recombinant type IV collagen, recombinant type V collagen, recombinant type VI collagen, recombinant type VII collagen, and recombinant type XVII collagen, preferably recombinant type I collagen, recombinant type III collagen, recombinant type XVII collagen, or combinations thereof. The recombinant collagen can be a full-length chain of recombinant natural collagen, a truncated or spliced full-length chain of natural collagen, or a repeat of natural collagen fragments. The molecular weight of the recombinant collagen can be between 10,000 Daltons and 200,000 Daltons.
[0026] The lipid component in step (2) may include, but is not limited to, one of lecithin, hydrogenated lecithin, phosphatidylcholine, hydrogenated phosphatidylcholine, or a mixture thereof in any mass ratio. The organic solvent in step (2) is soluble in water and may be, for example, methanol, ethanol, propanol, ethyl acetate, etc.
[0027] The mixing method in step (3) can be stirring, high-pressure homogenization, microfluidic mixing, etc., with microfluidic mixing being preferred.
[0028] In step (4), the concentration of the polyquaternium-51 aqueous solution can be, for example, 0.5-15% by weight, preferably 1-10% by weight, more preferably 2-8% by weight, more preferably 3-7% by weight, more preferably 4-6% by weight, for example 5% by weight. The aqueous solution containing liposomes can contain 3-30% by weight, preferably 7-20% by weight, more preferably 6-15% by weight, more preferably 5-10% by weight of liposomes. The volume ratio of the polyquaternium-51 aqueous solution to the aqueous solution containing liposomes can be, for example, 1:100-1:5, preferably 1:50-1:8, more preferably 1:30-1:10. There are no particular limitations on the method for thoroughly mixing the polyquaternium-51 and liposomes, as long as they can be thoroughly mixed. A stirring method can be used, for example, with stirring speeds of 50 rpm to 1000 rpm, preferably 100 rpm to 800 rpm, more preferably 200 rpm to 700 rpm, even more preferably 400 rpm to 600 rpm, such as 500 rpm; and stirring time of 1 min to 120 min, preferably 5 min to 90 min, even more preferably 10 min to 60 min, such as about 30 min. Whether it is "fully mixed" can be determined, for example, by measuring the particle size of the obtained composite nanoliposomes to be <400 nm and / or the homogeneity to be <0.3.
[0029] The above-mentioned method for preparing recombinant collagen composite nanoliposomes provides a method applicable to the preparation of macromolecular recombinant collagen composite nanoliposomes with molecular weights ranging from 10,000 Daltons to 200,000 Daltons. It involves adding salts and alcohols to a protein solution to form supramolecular nanoparticles, thereby achieving ordered assembly of disordered protein molecules through hydrogen bonding to form a supramolecular solution. Then, by thoroughly mixing with a lipid-phase phospholipid solution, liposome vesicles are formed on the supramolecular surface for secondary encapsulation. After secondary encapsulation, the liposomes undergo electrostatic adsorption with positively charged polyquaternium-51 on the molecular chain, forming a hydrophilic polymer protective layer on the liposome surface, thus achieving tertiary encapsulation. By employing a multi-layered encapsulation technique, supramolecular assembly, phospholipid encapsulation, and a polyquaternium-51 protective layer are formed on the surface of the protein. This combination of technologies achieves: 1. Highly efficient penetration, combining the effects of supramolecular, liposome, and polyquaternium-51 delivery systems, significantly improving the penetration efficiency of large protein molecules. Transdermal experiments show that the transdermal absorption rate is nearly 5 times higher than that of protein solutions and nearly 3 times higher than that of single encapsulation, significantly enhancing transdermal absorption. 2. Significantly improved protein stability. In aqueous solutions, large protein molecules are prone to hydrolysis or enzymatic degradation during prolonged storage, leading to fragmentation. The multi-layered encapsulation technique creates a charge-stable environment isolated from the external environment, inhibiting degradation caused by changes in ionic strength, temperature, and enzymes. 3. Compared to single liposome encapsulation, the multi-layered encapsulation of liposomes with a hydrophilic polymer protective layer further increases the stability of the entire nanoparticle, preventing liposome aggregation, fusion, or premature leakage.
