Abstract
Description
A coenzyme Q 10 Cardioplegic solution composition and application thereof
[0001] This application claims the benefit of Chinese patent application No. 2023115435077, filed on November 20, 2023. This application incorporates the entirety of the aforementioned Chinese patent application. Technical Field
[0002] The present invention relates to the field of biomedicine technology, and in particular to a method for preparing a biopharmaceutical product containing coenzyme Q 10 Cardioplegic solution composition and application thereof. Background Art
[0003] Coenzyme Q 10 It is a fat-soluble quinone compound with common vitamin characteristics and a chemical structure similar to vitamin K. It has multiple biological functions, especially its advantages of small dosage, low toxicity, and auxiliary treatment of various diseases, and has been widely used in clinical practice. 10 It is a good biochemical drug with natural antioxidant and cell metabolism activation effects, which can significantly improve human immunity. This drug is mainly used clinically for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases, scurvy, aplastic anemia, duodenal ulcers, acute and chronic viral hepatitis, subacute liver necrosis, congestive heart disease, emphysema and other diseases, as well as auxiliary treatment for cancer patients. It is widely used in nutritional health products and food additives at home and abroad.
[0004] But Coenzyme Q 10 In terms of solubility, it has the physical and chemical characteristics of being very soluble in chloroform, benzene, easily soluble in acetone, ether, difficult to dissolve in ethanol, insoluble in water and methanol, and due to the coenzyme Q 10 There is a quinone group in the molecular structure of coenzyme Q, which is easily decomposed by light and oxygen. 10 Solubility requires more excipients, such as surfactants, organic solvents or long-chain fatty acids (oils) or lipids. 10 Intravenous infusion and preparation method thereof, which provides a method for infusing coenzyme Q 10 The method of making intravenous infusion is mainly to add high concentration of surfactant polysorbate 80 (Tween 80) to coenzyme Q 10 Polysorbate 80 (Tween 80) is a commonly used coenzyme Q 10 Solubilizing excipient, used alone to dissolve coenzyme Q 10 , can keep the solution clear in a short time, but after a few days, coenzyme Q 10 Will be reprecipitated. 10Intravenous Infusion Solution”, which provides another way to 10 The key to the method of preparing intravenous infusion is the use of a composite solubilizer, which is composed of polysorbate 80 (Tween 80) and polyoxyethylene fatty acid ester (polyoxyethylene fatty acid 40 ester) in a certain proportion. 10 The injection uses a solubilizing emulsifier and a surfactant polysorbate to increase the content of coenzyme Q 10 Patent CN200810069760.2 Coenzyme Q 10 The injection utilizes a mixture of polyethylene glycol 15-hydroxystearate (Solutol HS 15) and polysorbate 80. These patented technologies all utilize a combination of multiple solubilizing agents, and these ingredients are used in relatively large quantities, raising concerns about their safety and impact on cardiomyocytes. Furthermore, excessive amounts of polysorbate 80 can lead to safety concerns, such as allergic reactions.
[0005] Another example is the use of micelle solubilization, such as coenzyme Q 10 Encapsulated in a micelle containing glycyrrhizic acid or glycyrrhizic acid salt, bile acid and unsaturated salt (Coenzyme Q 10 Solubilizing composition and preparation method thereof, CN201780024843.7), or adding vegetable oil to prepare an emulsion. Some researchers also used coenzyme Q 10 Mix with polyethylene glycol dodecyl hydroxystearate solubilizer, heat until melted, then add injection solvent to make a clear solution (a coenzyme Q 10 Intravenous infusion and its preparation method, CN101480375A).
[0006] However, the cardioplegic solution has a complex formula, containing 0.8766g sodium chloride, 0.6710g potassium chloride, 0.1842g 2-oxoglutarate-hydrogen-potassium, 0.8132g magnesium chloride hexahydrate, 3.7733g histidine hydrochloride monohydrate, 27.9289g histidine, 0.4085g tryptophan, 5.4651g mannitol, and 0.0022g calcium chloride dihydrate per 1000mL solution. Therefore, unlike the intravenous injection solution described in the above patent (usually using 0.9% sodium chloride solution or 5% glucose solution), after the coenzyme Q10 solubilized preparation is added to the cardioplegic solution, it may aggregate due to interaction with ions or molecules in the cardioplegic solution, resulting in the encapsulated coenzyme Q 10 At the same time, the types and amounts of excipients used in these preparations cannot meet the safety requirements for cardioprotection.
[0007] The complexity of the cardioplegic solution ingredients also requires that when improving its formula, it is necessary to ensure that the content of the original ingredients remains unchanged while minimizing the types and contents of the newly added ingredients to reduce the disturbance of the ionic components in the cardioplegic solution and thus affect the cardioplegic effect of the cardioplegic solution. Therefore, the present invention gives priority to using a single and small amount of solubilizer as the main material to improve the coenzyme Q 10 Solubility in water, dissolving coenzyme Q 10 While reducing the impact on the components of the cardioplegic solution itself. Taking into account the types and contents of ions in the cardioplegic solution and the safety requirements of the cardioplegic solution for cardiac protection, the present invention selects a polyoxyethylene nonionic surfactant with good safety as a solubilizer to reduce the impact of ions on the stability of the coenzyme Q10 solubilized preparation; further, a water-soluble polyhydroxy compound is added as a cosolvent, utilizing the hydrogen bonding between the polyhydroxy compound and the hydrophilic groups of the polyoxyethylene surfactant (Figure 1), while reducing the amount of surfactant used, ensuring that coenzyme Q10 can be solubilized in the cardioplegic solution for a long time.
[0008] In terms of stability, due to the coenzyme Q 10 It is very easy to be oxidized. The existing technology mainly maintains the coenzyme Q by adding sodium bisulfite and sodium calcium edetate as reducing agents. 10 HTK cardioplegic solution primarily achieves cardiac arrest by inhibiting the action potential of myocardial cells through high concentrations of potassium ions and low concentrations of sodium and calcium ions in the solution. Therefore, directly adding these two ionic reducing agents to the cardioplegic solution will alter the ion concentration within the solution, affecting its effectiveness. If the sodium ion concentration in the cardioplegic solution increases, the tendency for extracellular sodium ions to diffuse into the cell increases energy consumption by the sodium-potassium pump. The reduced ATP further increases the risk of cellular edema during cardioplegic arrest. Summary of the Invention

[0096] (2) The present invention improves coenzyme Q 10 Compatibility in cardioplegic solutions:
[0097] The present invention uses coenzyme Q 10 The drug and / or its analogs self-assemble with surfactants to form micelle-like structure particles, so that the drug loading process is always carried out in the nano-scale micelle-like structure. Therefore, only a small amount of surfactant is needed to greatly increase the coenzyme Q in the micelle-like structure. 10 This is beneficial for reducing the amount of excipients in the solution, thereby improving the compatibility of the solution with cardiac protective solutions or cardioplegic solutions when used for myocardial protection.
[0098] (3) The present invention improves the stability of drug loading:
[0099] The present invention is used to carry out coenzyme Q 10 During loading, the micelle-like structure dispersed in water has a restrictive effect on particle growth, making the coenzyme Q dissolved in the cosolvent10 Before the drug can aggregate into large particles, it is effectively loaded into the micelle-like structure in the form of molecules or microcrystals. The drug in the microcrystal state not only greatly increases the drug loading capacity, but also further improves the stability of the drug loading, which can avoid the 10 Precipitation in cardiac protective solution or cardioplegia solution. In addition, the above-mentioned coenzyme Q provided by the present invention 10 The solution avoids the use of large amounts of oil and lipid components and has good stability and safety. 10 The solution preparation process is simple and easy to expand production.

For example, features illustrated or described as part of one embodiment may be used in another embodiment to produce a further embodiment.
[0111] Unless otherwise indicated, all terms (including technical and scientific terms) used to disclose the present invention have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which the present invention belongs. By way of further guidance, the following definitions are provided to better understand the teachings of the present invention. The terms used herein in the specification of the present invention are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention.

For example, "A and / or B" includes three parallel solutions of A, B and A+B. For example, the technical solution of "A, and / or, B, and / or, C, and / or, D" includes any one of A, B, C, and D (that is, the technical solution of all being connected by "logical OR"), and also includes any and all combinations of A, B, C, and D, that is, the combination of any two or any three of A, B, C, and D, and also includes the four-item combination of A, B, C, and D (that is, the technical solution of all being connected by "logical AND").
[0113] As used herein, the terms "comprising," "including," and "comprising" are synonymous and are inclusive or open-ended and do not exclude additional, unrecited members, elements, or method steps.
[0114] The recitation of numerical ranges herein by endpoints includes all numbers and fractions subsumed within the range, as well as the recited endpoints.
[0115] The present invention involves concentration values, and its meaning includes fluctuations within a certain range. For example, it can fluctuate within the corresponding accuracy range. For example, 2% can allow fluctuations within the range of ±0.1%. For values that are large or do not require overly precise control, its meaning is also allowed to include larger fluctuations. For example, 100mM can allow fluctuations within the range of ±1%, ±2%, ±5%, etc. As for molecular weight, its meaning is allowed to include fluctuations of ±10%. In the present invention, the word "about" is used as a modifier of quantity to indicate that it includes + or -5% of the modified quantity.
[0116] In the present invention, descriptions such as "plurality" and "multiple" refer to a number greater than or equal to 2 unless otherwise specified.
[0117] In the present invention, the technical features described in an open manner include closed technical solutions composed of the listed features, and also include open technical solutions containing the listed features.
[0118] In the present invention, "preferably", "better", "more preferably", and "suitably" are merely descriptions of preferred implementation methods or examples, and should be understood to not limit the scope of protection of the present invention. In the present invention, "optionally", "optional", and "optional" refer to being optional, that is, to being selected from either of the two parallel options of "with" or "without". If multiple "options" appear in a technical solution, unless otherwise specified and without contradiction or mutual restriction, each "optional" is independent.
[0119] The present invention relates to a coenzyme Q 10 The solution comprises a solvent comprising 33 to 60 parts by weight of a pharmaceutically acceptable polyoxyethylene nonionic surfactant and 40 to 67 parts by weight of a water-soluble polyhydroxy compound.
[0120] The solution is added to water or aqueous solution to 10 It self-assembles with surfactants to form micelle-like structure particles, so that the drug loading process is always carried out in the nano-scale micelle-like structure. Therefore, only a small amount of surfactant is needed to greatly increase the coenzyme Q in the micelle-like structure. 10 This is beneficial to reduce the amount of excipients in the solution, so as to improve the compatibility of the solution with the heart when used for myocardial protection. 10 During loading, the micelle-like structure dispersed in water also has a limiting effect on particle growth, making the coenzyme Q dissolved in the solvent 10Before the drug can aggregate into large particles, it is effectively loaded into the micelle-like structure in the form of molecules or microcrystals. The drug in the microcrystal state not only greatly increases the drug loading capacity, but also further improves the stability of the drug loading, which can avoid the 10 In addition, the above-mentioned coenzyme Q provided by the present invention 10 The solution avoids the use of a large amount of oil and lipid components, has good stability and safety. It also has the advantages of simple process and easy scale-up. 10 " should be understood to include pharmaceutical analogs or derivatives thereof.
[0121] As used herein, the terms "micelle-like self-assembled structure," "micelle-like particle," "micelle-like structure," "micelle-like drug," or "self-assembled structure" refer to a dispersed system formed by the spontaneous, oriented arrangement of surfactants, optionally in combination with drug molecules, at an interface in a medium. The surface activity of surfactants stems from the amphiphilic structure of their molecules. The hydrophilic groups induce the molecules to enter the aqueous phase, while the hydrophobic groups prevent them from dissolving in water and instead migrate outward from the interior of the water, tending to escape the aqueous phase. The balance between these two tendencies results in the accumulation of surfactants at the interface. When surface adsorption reaches saturation, the surfactant molecules, under the action of the hydrophobic groups, self-assemble within the solution. Specifically, the hydrophobic groups form an inner core, while the hydrophilic groups face outward in contact with the water, forming the simplest micelle-like self-assembled structure.
[0122] When amphiphilic molecules (including surfactants) encounter a selective solvent (i.e., one that can only dissolve the hydrophilic or hydrophobic segments but not the other), micelles may be formed. There are many kinds of selective solvents that can be used, including, for example, water. In the present invention, the terms "loaded in a micelle-like self-assembled structure" and "self-assembled with a surfactant to form a micelle-like self-assembled structure" are used interchangeably to refer to coenzyme Q. 10 It interacts with surfactants, where the drug molecules are encapsulated in the particles formed by the two, forming a stable drug-loaded micelle-like structure.
[0123] The polyoxyethylene nonionic surfactant suitable for the present invention refers to a surfactant mainly composed of ethylene oxide (EO) and a hydrophobic compound containing an active hydrogen atom, and combined into a surfactant of any length as needed, which mainly plays a solubilizing role. Its content can be 33 to 60 parts, for example 40, 45, 50, or 55 parts. Surfactants suitable for the present invention include Peregal, alkylphenol polyoxyethylene ether, fatty acid polyoxyethylene ether, polyol surfactant, span and polyethers. In some preferred embodiments, the polyoxyethylene nonionic surfactant includes one or more of polyoxyethylene hydrogenated castor oil, polyoxyethylene 12-hydroxystearic acid, caprylic capric macrogol glyceride, poloxamer, lauroyl polyoxyethylene-6 glyceride, polyoxyethylene castor oil, polyoxyethylene-8 behenic acid glyceride, lauroyl polyoxyethylene-32 glyceride, stearoyl polyoxyethylene glyceride, oleoyl polyoxyethylene glyceride and linoleoyl polyoxyethylene-6 glyceride.
[0124] The content of the water-soluble polyol can be 40 to 67 parts, for example 45, 55, or 60 parts. In some embodiments, the water-soluble polyol includes one or more of glycerol, polyethylene glycol, polyglycerol, a copolymer of polyethylene glycol and polypropylene glycol, and polypropylene glycol.
[0125] In some embodiments, the weight average molecular weight of the polyethylene glycol is 200-1000, for example, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, or 900.
[0126] In some embodiments, the solvent has an HLB value of 9 to 29, such as 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, and 29.
[0127] In some embodiments, the coenzyme Q 10 A solution is a clear solution. The term "clear solution" is used to distinguish it from liquid preparations such as suspensions or emulsions.
[0128] The present invention also relates to a liquid composition comprising the above-mentioned coenzyme Q 10 Solutions and cardioplegic solutions, wherein the concentration of the dissolving agent in the cardioplegic solution is below 10 mg / mL, for example 9 mg / mL, 8 mg / mL, 7 mg / mL, 6 mg / mL, 5 mg / mL, 4 mg / mL, 3 mg / mL, 2 mg / mL, 1 mg / mL; preferably 1.1 mg / mL to 10 mg / mL.
[0129] In some embodiments, the composition further contains thiourea, and the concentration of thiourea is preferably 0.06 mg / mL to 0.54 mg / mL, for example, 0.10 mg / mL, 0.15 mg / mL, 0.20 mg / mL, 0.25 mg / mL, 0.30 mg / mL, 0.35 mg / mL, 0.40 mg / mL, 0.45 mg / mL, and 0.50 mg / mL.
[0130] In some embodiments, the composition contains coenzyme Q 10 The concentration is 15 mg / L to 60 mg / L, for example, 17 mg / L, 20 mg / L, 23 mg / L, 25 mg / L, 27 mg / L, 30 mg / L, 35 mg / L, 40 mg / L, 45 mg / L, 50 mg / L, and 55 mg / L.
[0131] A cardioplegic solution (abbreviated as "cardioplegic solution") is a liquid that is infused into the heart via the coronary artery or coronary sinus during open-heart surgery, chemically inducing a rapid cardiac arrest. Cardioplegic solutions suitable for use in the present invention are preferably intracellular solutions, more preferably low-sodium and low-calcium solutions, for example, with a sodium ion concentration below 15 mEq / L and a calcium ion concentration below 0.015 mEq / L. More preferably, the cardioplegic solution contains tryptophan and ketoglutarate ions, and uses histidine as a buffer solution. In some specific embodiments, the cardioplegic solution is HTK solution (the histidine-tryptophan-ketoglutarate solution; Custodiol, also known as Custodiol).
[0132] The liquid compositions of the present invention may also contain other ingredients as desired. In some cases, it may be beneficial for the liquid composition to contain a thrombolytic agent, such as tissue plasminogen activator, as well as other free radical scavengers or drugs that prevent the generation of free radicals. Examples of free radical scavengers include superoxide dismutase, a protein that is expressed after an ischemic event, or less potent substances such as catalase, acetylcysteine, vitamin E, glutathione, and selenium.
[0133] According to yet another aspect of the present invention, it also relates to the use of the above composition in the preservation of an isolated donor heart in heart transplantation.
[0134] The preferred storage temperature is about 0° C. to about 35° C., preferably about 0° C. to about 16° C., and more preferably about 0° C. to about 4° C. Generally speaking, at low temperatures, the time an isolated organ can withstand ischemia can be extended 10 times longer than at room temperature.
[0135] According to another aspect of the present invention, it also relates to the use of the above-mentioned composition in the preparation of a cardioplegic solution for perfusion during establishment of extracorporeal circulation.
[0136] According to yet another aspect of the present invention, there is also provided a method for inducing temporary cardiac paralysis / establishing extracorporeal circulation during cardiac surgery, comprising the step of administering an effective amount of the liquid composition as described above to perfuse the patient's heart.
[0137] As used herein, the term "effective amount" or "therapeutically effective amount" of a drug or pharmaceutically active ingredient is used to refer to a non-toxic amount of the drug or active agent that is sufficient to provide the desired therapeutic effect. An "effective" amount will vary from individual to individual, depending on the individual's age and general condition, the specific active agent, and the like. An appropriate "effective" amount in any particular case can be determined by one skilled in the art using routine experimentation.
[0138] In some embodiments, the liquid composition is administered to the patient at low temperature.
[0139] In some embodiments, the liquid composition is administered to the patient at room temperature.
[0140] In some embodiments, the liquid composition is administered only once during surgery.
[0141] In some embodiments, the liquid composition is administered more than once during surgery.
[0142] In some embodiments, the liquid composition is infused into the root of a cross-clamped aorta and / or directly into the coronary sinus. A balloon catheter can be used as a conduit for the liquid composition, which is introduced through the right atrium into the coronary sinus and then infused into the coronary circulation via the venous circulation. This approach has the advantage of allowing for more uniform distribution of the liquid composition in patients with diffuse coronary artery disease, and its delivery does not rely on a functioning aortic valve.
[0143] In some embodiments, the method of using the liquid composition of the present invention to induce temporary cardiac paralysis during cardiac surgery comprises perfusing the patient's heart with the liquid composition of the present invention at a temperature of about 4°C to about 35°C, preferably at a temperature of about 10°C to about 21°C, and most preferably at about 13°C. It is known to those skilled in the art that the process of using the present invention to induce cardiac paralysis in a patient to preserve cardiac function comprises perfusing the heart with the liquid composition under moderate hypothermia. The administration process of the present invention further comprises perfusing the heart with the liquid composition, preferably at a temperature of about 20 to about 30 mL / kg. In some embodiments, the process comprises perfusing the patient's heart with the liquid composition of the present invention at a moderate hypothermia every 20 to 40 minutes, inducing cardiac paralysis to preserve cardiac function. The method of use of the present invention may comprise perfusing the heart with the liquid composition of the present invention in a cycle of about 20 to 40 minutes, continuing at a moderate hypothermia for at least about 24 cycles. The method of use of the present invention comprises continuously administering the liquid composition.
[0144] Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury in patients undergoing cardiac surgery after extracorporeal circulation can severely damage myocardial tissue activity and affect postoperative cardiac function. Our previous studies have shown that supplementing cardioplegia with additional coenzyme Q 10 It can enhance the myocardial protection effect during extracorporeal circulation and reduce postoperative ischemia-reperfusion injury.
[0145] The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the examples. It should be understood that these examples are intended to illustrate the present invention only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. For experimental methods in the following examples where specific conditions are not specified, reference is made to the guidance provided in the present invention, and may also be made to experimental manuals or conventional conditions in the art, other experimental methods known in the art, or conditions recommended by the manufacturer.
[0146] In the following specific examples, the measured parameters of raw material components may have slight deviations within the range of weighing accuracy unless otherwise specified. For temperature and time parameters, acceptable deviations caused by instrument testing accuracy or operational accuracy are allowed.

The micelle particle size distribution is relatively uniform. The Z-average particle size of Formulation 7 is over 26 times larger than that of the other formulations, which may explain the lower clarity of Formulation 7.

[0166] The dissolving agent in this embodiment refers to the dissolving coenzyme Q 10 Solvents, including nonionic surfactants and water-soluble polyols
[0167] 1. Obtaining Cardiomyocytes
[0168] Human induced pluripotent stem cells were cultured in vitro and induced to differentiate into cardiomyocytes. Flow cytometry was used to assess differentiation efficiency, and patch clamp electrophysiological activity was used to verify cardiomyocyte differentiation.
[0169] In Figure 3, Figure 3A selects the live cell population P1 based on forward scattered light and side scattered light, and removes dead cells; Figure 3B selects the cell population P2 located on the diagonal line based on the height and area of forward scattered light, and removes the sticky cell population; Figure 3C circles the control cell population that is not labeled with cardiac troponin T antibody outside the gate; Figures 3D and E identify the cardiac troponin T-positive cardiomyocyte population P3 based on the gate in C, and flow cytometry detection shows that the cardiac troponin T-positive cardiomyocytes account for 85.9%; Figure 3F shows the action potential of human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes, which can always maintain strong and stable spontaneous action potentials.
[0170] Figures 3A-E show flow cytometry analysis of human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes: The positive rate for the cardiomyocyte-specific marker troponin T was 81.28% ± 2.41% (n = 5), demonstrating that this protocol can yield a large number of highly pure cardiomyocytes. Figure 3F shows that the cardiomyocytes consistently maintain robust and stable spontaneous action potentials, demonstrating that the cardiomyocytes obtained using this protocol can function normally.
[0171] 2. Evaluation and optimization of cytotoxicity of dissolving agents
[0172] 400 mg of Cremophor RH40 and 600 mg of glycerol were weighed, heated to 40°C, and vortexed to mix thoroughly to obtain a clear mixed solution. 1000 mg, 330 mg, and 110 mg of the mixed solution were added to 100 mL of HTK cardioplegia solution, respectively, to prepare HTK cardioplegia solutions containing 10 mg / mL, 3.3 mg / mL, and 1.1 mg / mL of the soluble agent. Cardiomyocytes were then cultured in the cardioplegia solutions containing different concentrations of the soluble agent for 30 minutes. Western blot analysis was used to detect activation of the cardiomyocyte apoptosis pathway, and TUNEL staining was used to detect the apoptosis rate. The toxicity of different concentrations of the soluble agent on cardiomyocytes was evaluated to explore the safe concentration range of the soluble agent.
[0173] Figure 4A shows the Western blot analysis of apoptosis signaling pathway proteins (Caspase-3 and Cleaved Caspase-3) in cardiomyocytes cultured in HTK cardioplegia solution containing 10 mg / mL, 3.3 mg / mL, and 1.1 mg / mL of the lytic agent. Figure 4B is a bar graph showing activation of the apoptosis pathway by Western blot. The results showed that compared to the negative control (HTK cardioplegia solution without any other components), the addition of 10 mg / mL, 3.3 mg / mL, and 1.1 mg / mL of the lytic agent to the cardioplegia solution did not result in statistically significant differences in cardiomyocyte apoptosis. Figure 4C shows TUNEL staining of cardiomyocytes in cardioplegia containing different concentrations of the lytic agent. C1-C4, C5-C8, C9-C12, and C13-C16 show TUNEL staining of cardiomyocytes in HTK cardioplegia containing 10 mg / mL, 3.3 mg / mL, and 1.1 mg / mL of the lytic agent, respectively. DAPI (nuclei), TUNEL (apoptotic cells), and Actinin (cytoskeleton) are shown. The scale bar is 50 μm. Figure 4D is a bar graph of TUNEL staining for cardiomyocyte apoptosis. The results showed that compared with the negative control group, the addition of 10 mg / mL, 3.3 mg / mL, and 1.1 mg / mL of the lytic agent to the cardioplegia significantly reduced the apoptosis rate of cardiomyocytes, with no statistical difference between the groups.
[0174] From the results in FIG4 , it can be seen that when the concentration of the dissolving agent is below 10 mg / mL, there is no significant effect on the apoptosis level of cardiomyocytes, that is, when the concentration of the dissolving agent is below 10 mg / mL, there is no cardiomyocyte toxicity.

[0176] Thiourea (54 mg, 18 mg, and 6 mg) was weighed and evenly dissolved in 100 mL of HTK cardioplegia solution to prepare cardioplegia solutions with concentrations of 0.54 mg / mL, 0.18 mg / mL, and 0.06 mg / mL. Cardiomyocytes were cultured in these solutions for 30 minutes. The activation level of the myocardial apoptosis pathway was detected by Western blot, and the apoptosis rate of myocardial cells was detected by TUNEL staining. The toxicity of different concentrations of reducing agents on myocardial cells was evaluated to explore the safe concentration range of reducing agents.
[0177] Figure 5A shows the Western blot analysis of apoptosis signaling pathway proteins (Caspase-3 and Cleaved Caspase-3) in cardiomyocytes cultured in HTK cardioplegia solution containing different concentrations of the reducing agent thiourea (0.54 mg / mL, 0.18 mg / mL, and 0.06 mg / mL). Figure 5B is a bar graph showing activation of the apoptosis pathway by Western blot. The results showed that compared to the negative control (HTK cardioplegia solution without any other components), the addition of 0.54 mg / mL, 0.18 mg / mL, and 0.06 mg / mL of the reducing agent to the cardioplegia solution did not result in statistically significant differences in cardiomyocyte apoptosis. Figure 5C shows TUNEL staining of cardiomyocytes in cardioplegia solutions containing different concentrations of reducing agents. C1-C4, C5-C8, C9-C12, and C13-C16 show TUNEL staining of cardiomyocytes after incubation in HTK cardioplegia solutions containing 0.54 mg / mL, 0.18 mg / mL, and 0.06 mg / mL thiourea, respectively. DAPI (nuclei), TUNEL (apoptotic cells), and actinin (cytoskeleton) are shown. The scale bar is 50 μm. Figure 5D is a bar graph of TUNEL staining for cardiomyocyte apoptosis. The results showed that compared with the negative control group, the addition of 0.54 mg / mL, 0.18 mg / mL, and 0.06 mg / mL reducing agents to the cardioplegia solution significantly reduced the apoptosis rate of cardiomyocytes, with no statistical difference between the groups.
[0178] From the results in FIG5 , it can be seen that thiourea concentrations below 0.54 mg / mL have no significant effect on the apoptosis rate of cardiomyocytes, that is, thiourea concentrations below 0.54 mg / mL have no cardiomyocyte toxicity.

[0180] Coenzyme Q 10 Solution stability assessment
[0181] According to the recipe 1 of Example 1, 400 mg of polyoxyethylene hydrogenated castor oil (Cremophor RH40) and 600 mg of glycerol were weighed and heated to 40° C., and coenzyme Q was added. 10 20 mg, vortex and mix evenly to obtain clear coenzyme Q 10 Solution; weigh 306mg coenzyme Q 10 The solution was added to 100 ml of HTK cardioplegia solution and stirred until uniformly mixed to prepare 60 mg / L coenzyme Q 10 cardioplegia solution;
[0182] Then, 54 mg, 18 mg, and 6 mg of thiourea were weighed and dissolved in 100 mL of the above coenzyme Q 10Three new cardioplegic solutions with different concentrations of thiourea were prepared from the cardioplegic solution: 0.54 mg / mL, 0.18 mg / mL, and 0.06 mg / mL.
[0183] Finally, the prepared solution was stored in a sealed container at 4°C away from light. After 0, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27 and 30 days, the coenzyme Q in the three new cardioplegic solutions containing different concentrations of thiourea and the new cardioplegic solution without thiourea was detected by high performance liquid chromatography. 10 At the same time, the contents of α-ketoglutarate, tryptophan and histidine were detected by colorimetric ketoglutarate quantitative kit and ultra-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry on the 0th, 3rd, 6th, 9th, 12th, 15th, 18th, 21st, 24th, 27th and 30th days respectively, and the contents of solubilizer, coenzyme Q 10 , whether the addition of reducing agents affects the stability of HTK cardioplegia solution, and evaluate the effect of different concentrations of thiourea as a reducing agent on coenzyme Q 10 Stability protection effect.
[0184] Figure 6: Figures 6A, B, C, and D are respectively the coenzyme Q in the new cardioplegia solution containing 0.54 mg / mL, 0.18 mg / mL, 0.06 mg / mL thiourea and no thiourea. 10 6E, F, and G are curves showing the changes in the contents of α-ketoglutarate, tryptophan, and histidine over time in the new cardioplegia solution containing 0.54 mg / mL thiourea.
[0185] The results in Figure 6A, B, C, and D show that the coenzyme Q 10 The concentration of coenzyme Q 10 The concentration decreased significantly within 30 days, indicating that coenzyme Q 10 The stability is poor without reducing agent protection, while 0.54 mg / mL, 0.18 mg / mL and 0.06 mg / mL thiourea can play a good role in coenzyme Q 10 Therefore, in order to ensure the protection of coenzyme Q 10 To ensure stability and reduce the amount of thiourea added, the optimal concentration of thiourea in cardioplegia solution is 0.06 mg / L.
[0186] The results in Figure 6E, F, and G showed that the contents of α-ketoglutarate, tryptophan, and histidine did not decrease significantly within 30 days, indicating that the dissolution agent and coenzyme Q in the new cardioplegia solution 10 The addition of reducing agents will not disturb the main components of HTK cardioplegia solution, and the solution is highly stable.

[0189] Weigh 54 mg of thiourea and dissolve it evenly in 100 mL of HTK cardioplegia solution to prepare 0.54 mg / mL HTK cardioplegia-containing solution.
[0190] According to the recipe 1 of Example 1, 400 mg of polyoxyethylene hydrogenated castor oil (Cremophor RH40) and 600 mg of glycerol were weighed and heated to 40° C., and coenzyme Q was added. 10 20 mg, vortex and mix evenly to obtain clear coenzyme Q 10 Solution, then, weigh 306 mg of coenzyme Q 10 The solution was added to 100 ml of HTK cardioplegia solution and stirred until uniformly mixed to prepare 60 mg / L coenzyme Q 10 Composition of HTK cardioplegia solution.
[0191] Weigh 250 mg of sodium bisulfite and evenly dissolve it in 100 mL of HTK cardioplegia solution to prepare 2.5 mg / mL HTK cardioplegia solution containing sodium bisulfite.
[0192] The above HTK cardioplegia solution containing thiourea and coenzyme Q 10 Cardiomyocytes were perfused with HTK cardioplegia solution composition, HTK cardioplegia solution containing sodium bisulfite, and HTK cardioplegia solution without any other ingredients, and the action potential of cardiomyocytes was detected by cell patch clamp technique. The differences in cardioplegia effects among the four groups were compared.
[0193] Figure 7A, B, C, and D are myocardial cells perfused with HTK cardioplegia solution, HTK cardioplegia solution containing 0.54 mg / mL thiourea, and 60 mg / L coenzyme Q 10 The action potential of the myocardial cells after treatment with HTK cardioplegia solution and HTK cardioplegia solution containing 2.5 mg / mL sodium bisulfite. The red arrows indicate that the electrophysiological activity of the myocardial cells stops, and the blue arrows indicate that the action potential of the myocardial cells restarts.
[0194] The results in Figure 7 show that myocardial cells stopped action potential almost simultaneously after perfusion of the four groups of cardioplegia solutions. Groups A, B, and C in Figure 7 all recovered action potential within 11 minutes, while group D in Figure 7 did not recover action potential within 45 minutes. 10 The addition of sodium bisulfite had no significant effect on the cardioplegic effect of the cardioplegic solution, but the myocardial cell re-beating time was significantly prolonged after the addition of sodium bisulfite.

[0196] Contains coenzyme Q 10 Evaluation of the myocardial protective effect of cardioplegic solution compositions
[0197] 1. According to the recipe 1 of Example 1, weigh 400 mg of polyoxyethylene hydrogenated castor oil (Cremophor RH40), 600 mg of glycerol, heat to 40°C, and add coenzyme Q 10 20 mg, vortex and mix evenly to obtain clear coenzyme Q 10 Then, 76.5 mg, 153 mg, 229.5 mg, and 306 mg of the obtained coenzyme Q were weighed respectively. 10 The solution was added to 100 ml of HTK cardioplegia solution and stirred until uniformly mixed. Four different concentrations of coenzyme Q were prepared, namely 15 mg / L, 30 mg / L, 45 mg / L and 60 mg / L. 10 Composition of cardioplegic solution.
[0198] First, myocardial cells were placed in a hypoxic environment with different concentrations of coenzyme Q 10 The myocardial cells were cultured in a HTK cardioplegia solution composition and a HTK cardioplegia solution without any other ingredients for 45 minutes to simulate myocardial ischemia. Then, the myocardial cells were cultured in a high oxygen environment and a normal cell culture medium for 3 hours to simulate myocardial reperfusion. The activation level of the myocardial cell apoptosis pathway was detected by Western blot and the apoptosis rate of myocardial cells was detected by TUNEL staining to evaluate the effect of different concentrations of coenzyme Q 10 Protective effect of coenzyme Q on cardiomyocytes 10 The optimal dosage.

Figure 8C is a TUNEL staining image of cardiomyocytes, where C1-C4, C5-C8, C9-C12, C13-C16, and C17-C20 are the activation levels of cardiomyocytes in HTK cardioplegia solution containing 15 mg / L, 30 mg / L, 45 mg / L, and 60 mg / L coenzyme Q, respectively. 10 Figure 8D is a bar graph of the apoptosis rate of myocardial cells detected by TUNEL staining.
[0200] Figure 8A-B shows that compared with HTK cardioplegia solution without any other ingredients, the activation level of myocardial cell apoptosis signaling pathway was significantly increased in the presence of coenzyme Q 10 It starts to decrease when the concentration is 15mg / L and decreases significantly when the concentration is 30mg / L. 10 As the concentration continued to increase, the apoptosis level did not change significantly. Figure 8C-D shows that compared with HTK cardioplegia solution without any other ingredients, the apoptosis rate of myocardial cells increased with the addition of coenzyme Q 10 The concentration began to decrease when it was 15 mg / L. 10 When the concentration is 30mg / L, it decreases significantly. 10 When the concentration continued to increase, the apoptosis rate of myocardial cells did not decrease significantly.
[0201] 2. According to the recipe 2 of Example 1, 600 mg of polyoxyethylated 12-hydroxystearic acid (Kolliphor HS15) and 400 mg of polyethylene glycol 400 were weighed and heated to 40°C. 40 mg of coenzyme Q was added. 10 , vortex and mix evenly to obtain clear coenzyme Q 10 Mix the solution; then weigh 39mg, 78mg, 117mg, and 156mg of coenzyme Q 10 The mixed solution was added to 100 ml of HTK cardioplegia solution and stirred until uniformly mixed. Four different concentrations of coenzyme Q were prepared, namely 15 mg / L, 30 mg / L, 45 mg / L and 60 mg / L. 10 Composition of HTK cardioplegia solution.
[0202] First, myocardial cells were placed in a hypoxic environment with different concentrations of coenzyme Q 10 The myocardial cells were cultured in a HTK cardioplegia solution composition and a HTK cardioplegia solution without any other ingredients for 45 minutes to simulate myocardial ischemia. Then, the myocardial cells were cultured in a high oxygen environment and a normal cell culture medium for 3 hours to simulate myocardial reperfusion. The activation level of the myocardial cell apoptosis pathway was detected by Western blot and the apoptosis rate of myocardial cells was detected by TUNEL staining to evaluate the effect of different concentrations of coenzyme Q 10 Protective effect of coenzyme Q on cardiomyocytes 10 The optimal dosage.
[0203] Figure 9A shows myocardial cells in HTK cardioplegia solution containing 15 mg / L, 30 mg / L, 45 mg / L and 60 mg / L coenzyme Q 10Figure 9B is a bar graph showing the activation level of apoptosis pathway detected by Western blot. Figure 9C is a TUNEL staining image of cardiomyocytes, where C1-C4, C5-C8, C9-C12, C13-C16, and C17-C20 are the activation levels of apoptosis signaling pathway proteins (Caspase-3 and Cleaved Caspase-3) in HTK cardioplegia solution after ischemia-reperfusion. Figure 9C is a TUNEL staining image of cardiomyocytes, where C1-C4, C5-C8, C9-C12, C13-C16, and C17-C20 are the activation levels of apoptosis signaling pathway proteins (Caspase-3 and Cleaved Caspase-3) in HTK cardioplegia solution containing 15 mg / L, 30 mg / L, 45 mg / L, and 60 mg / L coenzyme Q 10 Figure 9D is a bar graph of the apoptosis rate of myocardial cells detected by TUNEL staining.
[0204] The results in Figure 9A-B show that compared with HTK cardioplegia solution without any other ingredients, the activation level of myocardial cell apoptosis signaling pathway is significantly increased in the presence of coenzyme Q 10 The apoptosis rate of myocardial cells decreased with the addition of coenzyme Q at a concentration of 15 mg / L and decreased significantly with the addition of coenzyme Q at a concentration of 30 mg / L. However, when the coenzyme concentration continued to increase, the apoptosis level did not change significantly. The results in Figure 9C-D show that compared with the HTK cardioplegia solution without any other ingredients, the apoptosis rate of myocardial cells decreased with the addition of coenzyme Q at a concentration of 15 mg / L and decreased significantly with the addition of coenzyme Q at a concentration of 30 mg / L. 10 The concentration began to decrease when it was 15 mg / L. 10 When the concentration is 30mg / L, it decreases significantly. 10 When the concentration continued to increase, the apoptosis rate of myocardial cells did not decrease significantly.
[0205] From the results of Figures 8 and 9, we can see that coenzyme Q 10 When the content of coenzyme Q is 30mg / L, it can achieve good myocardial protection. 10 The optimal concentration is 30 mg / L.
[0206] The advantages of the present invention are further demonstrated by the above examples:
[0207] 1. The coenzyme Q 10 Q prepared by solvent 10 The solution can be well dissolved in HTK stop solution without aggregation and precipitation.
[0208] 2. The coenzyme Q 10 Thiourea can stabilize it in HTK liquid and prevent oxidation and deterioration.
[0209] 3. Contains Coenzyme Q 10The new cardioplegia solution has a protective effect on myocardial cells after ischemia-reperfusion.
[0210] By using solvents and reducing agents, the coenzyme Q 10 The solubility and stability of the cardioplegia solution are difficult to solve. 10 The cardioplegic solution composition is safe and non-toxic, and can significantly enhance the protective effect of the cardioplegic solution on myocardial cells without affecting the cardioplegic effect of the cardioplegic solution.
[0211] The prepared coenzyme Q 10 After the solution is added to the cardioprotective solution, the coenzyme Q 10 The self-assembly of the drug and / or its analogs with surfactants forms micelle-like structure particles, so that the drug loading process is always carried out in the nano-scale micelle-like structure. Therefore, only a small amount of surfactant is needed to greatly increase the coenzyme Q in the micelle-like structure. 10 The loading amount is conducive to reducing the amount of excipients in the solution to improve the compatibility of the solution with the cardiac protective solution when used for myocardial protection. At the same time, this preparation method is used to prepare coenzyme Q 10 When loaded, the micelle-like structure dispersed in water also has a limiting effect on particle growth, making coenzyme Q 10 Before the drug can aggregate into large particles, it is effectively loaded into the micelle-like structure in the form of molecules or microcrystals. The drug in the microcrystal state is not only conducive to greatly increasing the drug loading capacity, but also further improves the stability of the drug loading, which can avoid the 10 Precipitation in the cardioprotective solution. 10 The particle size of the solution cannot be measured, that is, coenzyme Q 10 Dispersed in the solution in molecular state, but coenzyme Q 10 After the solution is added to the cardioprotective solution, uniform nanoparticles can be formed.

It should be noted that a person skilled in the art may make several modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these modifications and improvements fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
