Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of bone healing materials technology, specifically relating to an absorbable bone wax that promotes bone healing and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Bone wax is a key consumable used in orthopedic and neurosurgical procedures to control diffuse bleeding on the bone surface. Traditional bone wax, with beeswax and paraffin as its core components, has an immediate hemostatic effect, but because it is non-degradable, its residue in the body can form a physical barrier, hindering bone cell migration and bone tissue remodeling, and easily causing nonunion, chronic inflammation and infection risks. Its application is limited in surgical scenarios that require bone healing, such as spinal fusion and bone defect repair.

[0003] To overcome the limitations of traditional bone wax, absorbable bone wax technology has been gradually developed. For example, related patent CN105816905B uses polyoxypropylene and polyoxyethylene block copolymers and random copolymers as base materials, and combines them with chitosan to achieve absorbability and basic healing promotion functions; CN109125791B introduces strontium-doped hydroxyapatite and microcrystalline cellulose into the copolymer base material to enhance bone repair activity; CN109432487B further optimizes the formula, using block copolymers and random copolymers as carriers, and combining them with alkylated chitosan and strontium-doped carbon-containing nano-hydroxyapatite to improve the compatibility of the material with bone tissue.

[0004] While existing technologies have achieved the absorbability and preliminary bone healing promotion capabilities of bone wax, significant technical bottlenecks remain: First, the active ingredients have limited healing efficiency and a weak induction effect on osteoblast proliferation and differentiation, resulting in a relatively long bone defect healing cycle; second, the synergy between the substrate and the active ingredients is insufficient, making it difficult to precisely match the degradation rate with the bone tissue regeneration rate, which can easily lead to hemostasis failure due to excessively rapid degradation or hindering bone growth due to excessively slow degradation; and third, the function is singular, focusing only on hemostasis and basic repair.

[0005] With the development of precision orthopedic surgery, the clinical demand for bone wax has evolved from "hemostasis and absorbability" to an integrated approach of "hemostasis, degradation, and efficient bone induction." Therefore, it is necessary to screen highly active bone-inducing components, optimize the ratio of substrate and active ingredients, and refine the compounding process to achieve a precise match between degradation rate and bone regeneration, thereby enhancing bone repair and overcoming the limitations of existing technologies. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To address the problems of low healing efficiency, insufficient synergy between the substrate and active ingredients, mismatched degradation rates, and limited functionality in existing bone wax technologies, this invention provides an absorbable bone wax for promoting bone healing and its preparation method. The method involves preparing a biodegradable copolymer, magnesium-calcium silicate-biopeptide composite microspheres, and mesoporous silica-supported Panax notoginseng saponins, which are then combined with PTMC and hydrogenated castor oil to prepare the bone wax. This overcomes the limitations of traditional bone waxes, such as poor degradability and limited functionality, achieving integrated functions of hemostasis, degradation, and efficient bone induction. Through the synergy of a controllable degradable substrate and highly active functional components, a precise match between the degradation rate and the bone regeneration cycle is achieved.

[0012] The preparation method of the above-mentioned magnesium-calcium silicate-biopeptide composite microspheres includes the following steps: Ca(NO3)2·4H2O:Mg(NO3)2·6H2O:TEOS = (46-52):(7-9):(20-25) by mass ratio; Ca(NO3)2·4H2O and Mg(NO3)2·6H2O are dissolved in deionized water to obtain solution A; TEOS is dissolved in anhydrous ethanol to obtain solution B; solution B is added to solution A under stirring to form a sol, which is then spray-dried to obtain precursor powder; the precursor powder is heated to 650℃-750℃, calcined for 3.5h-4.5h, cooled, and ground through a 150-200 mesh sieve to obtain porous magnesium-calcium silicate microspheres.

[0013] In the above preparation method of magnesium-calcium silicate-biopeptide composite microspheres, the oscillation adsorption is performed at 35℃~40℃ for 22h~26h; the stirring is performed at 150rpm~200rpm for 24h~28h.

[0014] Furthermore, the preparation method of the mesoporous silica-loaded total saponins of Panax notoginseng includes the following steps: CTAB:deionized water:sodium hydroxide aqueous solution:TEOS in a mass ratio of (1-1.2):(500-550):(3.5-4.5):(4-5); CTAB is dissolved in deionized water, sodium hydroxide aqueous solution is added, TEOS is added under stirring, the mixture is stirred and reacted, centrifuged, the solid is collected, washed, and calcined to obtain mesoporous silica nanoparticles; the mesoporous silica nanoparticles are dispersed in phosphate buffer, total saponins of Panax notoginseng are added, the mixture is loaded by shaking in the dark, centrifuged, the solid is collected, rinsed, and freeze-dried to obtain mesoporous silica-loaded total saponins of Panax notoginseng.

[0015] In the above method for preparing total saponins of Panax notoginseng supported on mesoporous silica, the concentration of the sodium hydroxide aqueous solution is 1.8M to 2.0M; the reaction is stirred for 1.5h to 2.5h after the addition of TEOS; the washing is performed by alternating washing with anhydrous ethanol and deionized water 2 to 3 times each; the calcination is performed by heating to 550℃ to 600℃ at a rate of 1℃ / min and calcining for 5h to 6h; the total saponins of Panax notoginseng are added at a ratio of 100μg to 120μg of total saponins of Panax notoginseng per milligram of mesoporous silica nanoparticles; the light-protected shaking loading is performed at 25℃ to 30℃ and 80rpm to 100rpm for 12h to 16h in the dark; the rinsing is performed with phosphate buffer solution pre-cooled to 4℃ to 8℃ with a pH of 7.0 to 7.4.

[0016] The preparation method of the above-mentioned absorbable bone wax that promotes bone healing includes the following steps: According to the formula mass ratio, the biodegradable copolymer and PTMC are mixed evenly at 60℃~65℃ to form a base material. The temperature is then lowered to 45℃~50℃, and hydrogenated castor oil, magnesium-calcium silicate-biopeptide composite microspheres, and mesoporous silica-supported Panax notoginseng saponins are added in sequence and mixed evenly to form a paste. The paste is then injected into a mold at 45℃~50℃ and cooled and shaped at 2℃~6℃ to obtain bone wax.

[0017] This invention provides an absorbable bone wax that promotes bone healing and its preparation method, with the following beneficial effects: I. This invention's bone wax overcomes the limitations of traditional bone waxes, which suffer from poor degradability and limited functionality, achieving integrated functions of hemostasis, degradation, and efficient bone induction. Through the synergy of a controllable degradable substrate and highly active functional components, it achieves a precise match between the degradation rate and the bone regeneration cycle. Simultaneously, through the sequential synergy of anti-inflammatory, angiogenesis-promoting, and osteogenic effects, it improves the bone healing microenvironment and enhances bone regeneration dynamics. Furthermore, it possesses excellent biocompatibility and manipulability, meeting the multifunctional needs of bone waxes.

[0018] II. In the preparation of biodegradable copolymers, PEG-400 and PEG-1000 are compounded in a specific ratio to optimize the hydrophilicity and swelling properties of the substrate, ensuring fluid wetting and release of active ingredients. D,L-lactide and ε-caprolactone are copolymerized in a specific ratio to form an amorphous-crystalline interwoven structure. The product is controlled by adjusting the reaction temperature and time to ensure the degradation rate and avoid excessively rapid collapse or long-term retention. An appropriate amount of stannous octoate is used as a catalyst to precisely control the degree of polymerization, ensuring the mechanical properties and degradation stability of the substrate.

[0019] III. In the preparation of magnesium-calcium silicate-biopeptide composite microspheres, calcination at 650℃~750℃ and passing through a 150-200 mesh sieve to form porous magnesium-calcium silicate microspheres can provide high specific surface area, achieving efficient loading of biopeptides and Mg. 2+ The sustained release of silicate ions provides continuous active stimulation for osteogenic formation. Monocyclic urticaria undergoes a two-step enzymatic hydrolysis with papain and trypsin to directionally obtain highly efficient active peptides ranging from 1kDa to 5kDa, providing anti-inflammatory, proliferative, differentiation-promoting, mineralization-enhancing, and angiogenic effects. A dopamine coating strengthens the interfacial binding of microspheres to the substrate and bone tissue, ensuring stable release of the bioactive peptides.

[0020] IV. In the mesoporous silica-loaded total saponins of Panax notoginseng, calcination at 550℃~600℃ removes the template agent to form mesoporous silica, thereby achieving physical protection and controlled sustained release of total saponins of Panax notoginseng, avoiding rapid release, delaying oxidation and degradation inactivation, and ensuring the sequential functions of early anti-inflammatory and mid-to-late-stage angiogenesis promotion.

[0021] 5. PTMC degrades slowly through surface erosion, and its overall degradation rate is synergistically regulated by a specific ratio with degradable copolymers.

[0022] VI. Hydrogenated castor oil optimizes the adhesiveness and plasticity of the ointment, ensuring bone surface adhesion and immediate hemostasis during surgery, and its degradation products are biocompatible.

[0023] VII. In the preparation method of bone wax, biodegradable copolymers are blended with PTMC to form a hydrophilic-hydrophobic interwoven three-dimensional network, providing a stable carrier for the subsequent dispersion of functional components; hydrogenated castor oil is added first to optimize the rheological properties of the paste, and then solid functional components are added to avoid particle agglomeration and ensure uniform dispersion; low-temperature mixing avoids thermal inactivation of bioactive peptides and total saponins of Panax notoginseng, and low-temperature setting ensures the morphological stability of bone wax.

[0024] In summary, the compound system of biodegradable copolymers and PTMC in bone wax of this invention, matched with the sustained-release properties of composite microspheres and Panax notoginseng saponins, achieves a match between the degradation rate and the bone regeneration rate, avoiding hemostatic failure due to excessively rapid degradation or bone growth inhibition due to excessively slow degradation. Hydrogenated castor oil provides rapid hemostasis, while Panax notoginseng saponins offer early anti-inflammatory effects. The composite microspheres continuously promote bone healing, and the sustained release of Panax notoginseng saponins continuously promotes angiogenesis; each function precisely exerts its effect at different stages of bone healing. Bioactive peptides and Mg... 2+ A synergistic osteogenic network is formed by the activation of silicate ions and the formation of total saponins from Panax notoginseng, enhancing activity and optimizing the environment. A dopamine coating and mesoporous loading ensure stable release and efficacy of functional components during degradation. All components work synergistically to ensure biocompatibility and cell adaptability. Detailed Implementation

The temperature was then raised to 88℃ to inactivate the enzyme for 12 minutes, cooled to room temperature, and centrifuged at 4500 rpm for 18 minutes. The supernatant was collected. The pH was adjusted to 8.0 using 0.3M sodium hydroxide aqueous solution, and 1.5% of the slurry weight of trypsin was added. The mixture was enzymatically hydrolyzed at 37℃ for 1.5 hours, and then raised to 88℃ to inactivate the enzyme for 12 minutes. The temperature was then cooled to room temperature, centrifuged at 8200 rpm for 12 minutes, and the supernatant was collected. Ultrafiltration membranes with molecular weight cutoffs of 1 kDa and 5 kDa were used for separation, and peptide fractions with molecular weights between 1 kDa and 5 kDa were collected. These fractions were then freeze-dried to obtain bioactive peptides. S2, Preparation of porous magnesium-calcium silicate microspheres: Ca(NO3)2·4H2O:Mg(NO3)2·6H2O:TEOS = 49:8:23 mass ratio was used. Ca(NO3)2·4H2O and Mg(NO3)2·6H2O were dissolved in 5.5 times the total mass of deionized water to obtain solution A. TEOS was dissolved in 3.5 times the mass of anhydrous ethanol to obtain solution B. Solution B was added to solution A at a rate of 10 mL / min under stirring at 500 rpm to form a uniform sol. Spray drying was then performed with the following parameters: inlet temperature 200℃, outlet temperature 90℃, feed rate 8 mL / min, and atomization pressure 0.3 MPa, to obtain precursor powder.

After centrifugation at 4800 rpm for 18 min, the solid was collected and dispersed in a pH 8.3 Tris-HCl buffer solution containing 1.2 mg / mL dopamine. The mixture was stirred at 180 rpm for 26 h at room temperature in the dark, and then centrifuged at 4800 rpm for 18 min. The solid was collected, washed twice with deionized water, and freeze-dried to obtain magnesium-calcium silicate-bioactive peptide composite microspheres with a bioactive peptide loading of not less than 40 wt%.

The solid is then calcined at 580℃ for 5.5 hours in air at 1℃ / min to completely remove the template agent CTAB, forming a regular mesoporous structure. After cooling, mesoporous silica nanoparticles are obtained. The nanoparticles were dispersed in a pH 7.0 phosphate buffer solution at 13 times their mass (13 times the mass of the mesoporous silica nanoparticles) and ultrasonically dispersed at 150W for 35 min to ensure uniform dispersion and expose more mesoporous channels. Total Panax notoginseng saponins were added at a ratio of 110 μg of total Panax notoginseng saponins per milligram of mesoporous silica nanoparticle (the total Panax notoginseng saponins were diluted with pH 7.0 phosphate buffer to a concentration of 8 mg / mL before addition to improve loading uniformity). The mixture was loaded for 14 h at 25℃–30℃ with light-protected shaking at 90 rpm (low temperature and light protection reduce oxidative degradation of total Panax notoginseng saponins, while gentle shaking promotes adsorption of total Panax notoginseng saponins into the mesoporous channels). The mixture was then centrifuged at 8200 rpm for 20 min below 8℃. The solid was collected, washed once with pre-cooled pH 7.0 phosphate buffer solution at 6℃, and freeze-dried to obtain mesoporous silica-loaded total Panax notoginseng saponins with a loading rate of not less than 30%.

[0072] Table 1. Test Results (Average Values)

[0073] Note: "-" indicates that the item was not tested.

[0074] The bone waxes in Examples 1 to 3 utilize a hydrophilic-hydrophobic interwoven three-dimensional network constructed from a biodegradable copolymer and PTMC. A specific ratio of PEG-400 and PEG-1000 optimizes hydrophilicity and swelling properties, while PTMC degrades slowly via surface erosion. The three components synergistically achieve a precise match between the degradation rate and the bone regeneration cycle, preventing early collapse or prolonged retention. Hydrogenated castor oil optimizes the ointment's adhesion and plasticity, ensuring immediate hemostasis, while the degradation products are all biocompatible, maintaining an extremely low hemolysis rate. Magnesium-calcium silicate-biopeptide composite microspheres serve as the core signal source, with a porous structure loading biopeptides and slowly releasing magnesium. 2+ With silicate ions, bioactive peptides drive cell proliferation and differentiation by activating osteogenic signaling pathways, Mg 2+ The silicate ions provide continuous active stimulation for bone healing; dopamine modification strengthens the interfacial binding between the microspheres and the substrate and bone tissue, ensuring stable release of bioactive peptides. Mesoporous silica provides physical protection and controlled sustained release of Panax notoginseng saponins, exerting anti-inflammatory effects to improve the healing microenvironment and promoting angiogenesis to ensure nutrient supply. It forms an orderly synergy with bioactive peptides and inorganic ions in anti-inflammatory, angiogenic, and osteogenic effects. Each component plays a precise role at different stages of bone healing: the hemostatic component quickly seals bleeding, the anti-inflammatory component relieves inflammation in a timely manner, and the osteogenic and angiogenic components continuously drive bone regeneration, while ensuring excellent biocompatibility and cell adaptability.

[0075] In Comparative Example 1, the amount of biodegradable copolymer decreased while the amount of PTMC increased. Biodegradable copolymers are the main carriers of active ingredients. The increased proportion of PTMC weakens the swelling effect and microenvironment regulation ability of the biodegradable copolymer system, leading to an imbalance in the release kinetics of active ingredients. At the same time, the high flexibility and dense structure of PTMC reduces the hydrophilicity of the material, slows down its interaction with blood, prolongs hemostasis time, and alters the degradation rate due to the slow degradation characteristics of PTMC, resulting in poorer overall compatibility with the bone regeneration cycle.

[0076] In Comparative Example 2, the amount of magnesium-calcium silicate-biopeptide composite microspheres was reduced: the composite microspheres are the core signal source for bone induction, and their reduction directly led to a decrease in magnesium content. 2+ The total release of silicate ions and bioactive peptides was insufficient, weakening the specific signals driving osteogenic differentiation. Although the anti-inflammatory and pro-angiogenic effects of Panax notoginseng total saponins were still present, the lack of synergistic osteogenic signals led to a decrease in bone regeneration performance. At the same time, due to the weakened auxiliary effect of bioactive peptides in regulating inflammatory factors, anti-inflammatory and pro-angiogenic indicators were also correspondingly reduced.

[0077] In Comparative Example 3, the PEG component was changed to consist entirely of PEG-1000: the short chains of PEG-400 can increase the hydrophilic sites on the material surface, forming an optimal distribution of hydrophilic segments with PEG-1000, thus optimizing interfacial interactions. Using only PEG-1000 would result in tightly wrapped hydrophilic segments, reduced accessibility to hydrophilicity, affecting the initial interactions between the material and body fluids and cells, leading to decreased cell adhesion. The longer PEG-1000 chains create steric hindrance on the polymer backbone, slightly slowing down the degradation rate.

[0078] In Comparative Example 4, no D,L-lactide was added, but excess ε-caprolactone was used. The amorphous polylactic acid segments formed by the polymerization of D,L-lactide are crucial for ensuring the copolymer's degradation rate and structural openness. Their absence significantly increases the copolymer's crystallinity, resulting in a denser molecular chain arrangement that hinders water molecule penetration and ester bond hydrolysis, thus slowing down degradation. The dense material surface also impedes cell adhesion and the release of active ingredients. Furthermore, its excessive hardness and brittleness affect its adhesion to bone surfaces, leading to decreased hemostatic performance.

[0079] In Comparative Example 5, no ε-caprolactone was added, but excess D,L-lactide was used. ε-caprolactone provides flexible segments that regulate the mechanical properties and degradation characteristics of the copolymer. Without these segments, the copolymer is dominated by polylactic acid segments, leading to increased rigidity and decreased hydrophilicity, resulting in a slower and more uneven degradation rate. Simultaneously, insufficient material flexibility affects operability and tissue adhesion. Furthermore, the lactic acid produced from the decomposition of excess polylactic acid segments lowers the pH, and long-term residues can easily trigger inflammatory responses.

[0080] In Comparative Examples 6 to 8, a certain protease was omitted or the protease was changed: the enzymatic hydrolysis of monocyclic caustic solanine protein broke the specific cleavage synergy between papain and trypsin, resulting in changes in peptides rich in cell adhesion and osteogenic active sequences. The types, abundance and conformation of the optimal active sequences were altered, the proportion of specific active peptides in the biopeptide library decreased, and the decline in related indicators was directly weakened.
