Description

THERMO-SENSITIVE TYPE HYDROGEL ADJUVANT FOR VETERINARY VACCINE, PREPARATION METHOD, AND APPLICATION THEREOF
TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to the field of adjuvants for veterinary vaccines, in particular to a thermo-sensitive type hydrogel adjuvant for a veterinary vaccine, a preparation method and application thereof.
BACKGROUNDART An adjuvant, generally, refers to a substance that can strengthen a specific immune response of a living body to an antigen nonspecifically. Based on different mechanisms of action, the adjuvant can be divided into two categories: immunostimulatory adjuvants, such as LPS, and cytokines, which achieve an effect of a direct stimulation or activation to active cells of an immune system, and an antigen presentation system (also known as a vaccine delivery system (VDS)), such as alumina gel, mineral oil, and liposome, which can protect a vaccine antigen, and prolong retention time of the antigen in the living body, thereby forming a continuous immunostimulation and an efficient immunoreaction. At present, the mineral oil adjuvants are still used in animal vaccines widely, however, as white oil and a surfactant have high proportions in the vaccine, animals have large stress reactions after being injected with the vaccines, and even, aseptic suppuration injury and granulomas adjacent to vaccination sites are caused, which pose an adverse impact on a quality of animal products. In addition, the traditional water-in-oil vaccine is, generally, high in viscosity, and not easy to inject, which severely affects an immune effect of the vaccine and an effective prevention and control of epidemic diseases. A thermo-sensitive type hydrogel belongs to one kind of hydrogels, which has been applied in sustained drug release, tissue engineering, cell engineering, and other sections. A system is a flowing liquid phase, and when a system temperature is lower than a critical transformation temperature, a thermo-sensitive type substrate can be bonded with a water molecule to form a hydrogen bond, by which a gelatinized substrate is dissolved in water. When the temperature is elevated to the critical transformation temperature, the hydrogen bond is destroyed; a polymer chain retracts under hydrophobic effect, the gelatinized substrate is separated from a water phase, and the system undergoes phase transformation to be a gel phase. The gel system has a special net cross-linked structure, in which drugs or other active components can be wrapped in a three-dimensional net structure; and with a denudation of gel, the drugs or other active substances are released slowly, which avoid rapid degradation or deactivation and prolong action time of the drugs in the living body, thereby fulfilling an objective of controlled release. However, the thermo-sensitive type hydrogel adjuvant which is low in viscosity and less in side effect, is able to prolong a duration of immunity, and is suitable for veterinary vaccines hasn't been found yet in the prior art.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention aims to provide a thermo-sensitive type hydrogel adjuvant for a veterinary vaccine. The adjuvant is readily available in raw materials, low in costs, low in viscosity, and less in a side effect, and can prolong a duration of immunity significantly. The present invention further aims to provide a preparation method of the thermo-sensitive type hydrogel adjuvant for the veterinary vaccine. The present invention further aims to provide application of the thermo-sensitive type hydrogel adjuvant for the veterinary vaccine. The objectives of the present invention are fulfilled by the following technical solutions: The thermo-sensitive type hydrogel adjuvant for the veterinary vaccine consists of the following components in percentage by mass:
15% to 50% of polymer micelle substance, 0.1% to 5% of nonionic cellulose ether, and the balance of water. In the present invention, the polymer micelle substance is one of poloxamer 407, poloxamer 188, Soluplus, and Carbomer or a mixture of more of them. In the present invention, the nonionic cellulose ether is hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose. In the preferred technical solution, the thermo-sensitive type hydrogel adjuvant for the veterinary vaccine consists of the following components in percentage by mass: The poloxamer 15%-35%, Soluplus 0.1-10%, The Carbomer 0.01%-0.2%, The hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose 0.1%-5%, the balance of water. In the present invention, the poloxamer is the poloxamer 407 and the poloxamer 188, where a content of the poloxamer 407 is 14% to 30% in percentage by mass, and a content of the poloxamer 188 is 1% to 5% in percentage by mass. The present invention further provides a preparation method of the thermo-sensitive type hydrogel adjuvant for the veterinary vaccine, which includes steps: weighing each component, mixing, swelling at 2C to 10°C to form a homogeneous system, and obtaining the thermo-sensitive type hydrogel adjuvant. In present invention, the mixing is conducted at 0°C to 10°C. The present invention further provides a vaccine containing the thermo-sensitive type hydrogel adjuvant for the veterinary vaccine. In the present invention, the thermo-sensitive type hydrogel vaccine includes the thermo-sensitive type hydrogel adjuvant and an aqueous solution of an antigen, where a mass ratio of the adjuvant to the aqueous solution of the antigen is 0.5-4: 1. In the present invention, the antigen is a porcine circovirus virus or porcine parvovirus. The present invention has the following beneficial effects: (1) The thermo-sensitive type hydrogel adjuvant for the veterinary vaccine of the present invention is simple in components, readily available in the raw materials, low in the costs, and easy to use; the vaccine prepared in combination with the adjuvant is high in syringeability, low in viscosity, and easy to inject, which relieves the workload significantly when animals get vaccinated; and the vaccine is easy to store and less in side effect, and is able to prolong the duration of immunity significantly. The raw materials in the present invention are high in biosecurity and excellent in in-vivo degradability. Gel shows a three-dimensional net cross-linked structure after being gelatinized, in which the antigen can be loaded in a crosslinking hole, and then, achieves slow-release effect along with a denudation of the semi-solid gel in the body. (2) The preparation method of the thermo-sensitive type hydrogel adjuvant is easy to operate, and low in the costs.

After being weighed based on the component and the content of each thermo-sensitive type hydrogel adjuvant, each substance was added into the water and stirred in an ice-water bath, and a mixture was stood at 4C for 12 h for swelling until a homogeneous system was formed; and then, after the system was filtered with a 0.22 pm filter membrane for sterilizing, the thermo-sensitive type hydrogel adjuvants 1-8 were obtained respectively.
Hydrogels prepared according to different formulas were put into a penicillin bottle through a turn technique (a thermo-sensitive gel substrate and a preparation method thereof and application thereof, with a patent number of ZL201610243442.8), the penicillin bottle was put into a water bath, and then, the water bath was heated from 30°C; and a temperature rise rate was controlled at 0.5°C/min, and time was maintained for 5 to 10 min at each temperature point. The penicillin bottle inclined at an angle of 60 degrees, gelation time of each sample at different temperatures was recorded based on a gelation decision criterion that each sample kept in a non-flowing state within s. Results showed that a system kept in the flowing state, with the above 8 thermo-sensitive type hydrogel adjuvants failing to be gelatinized at below 32°C in the system. When the temperature elevated to 34C, a viscosity of the sample was increased sharply, and a system liquidity declined dramatically, and the system was gelatinized gradually.

Embodiment 2 Preparation, property evaluation, and application of thermo-sensitive type hydrogel vaccine (1) Preparation of porcine circovirus type 2 inactivated virus fluid The porcine circovirus type 2 inactivated virus fluid (a DBN-SX07 strain) is provided by Chengdu Tecbond Biotechnology Co., Ltd., and before inactivation, a virus content in the virus fluid per milliliter is 106TCID50. The inactivated virus fluid meets relevant requirements of Compilation of Quality Standards for Veterinary Biological Products (2011 ). (2) Preparation of porcine circovirus type 2 thermo-sensitive type hydrogel inactivated vaccine The thermo-sensitive type hydrogel adjuvants 1-8 prepared in the embodiment 1 were mixed with the porcine circovirus type 2 inactivated virus fluid (the DBN-SX07 strain) at a mass ratio of 3: 1 respectively and uniformly, and then, a thermo-sensitive type hydrogel vaccine PCV2-1, a thermo-sensitive type hydrogel vaccine PCV2-2, a thermo-sensitive type hydrogel vaccine PCV2-3, a thermo-sensitive type hydrogel vaccine PCV2-4, a thermo-sensitive type hydrogel vaccine PCV2-5, a thermo-sensitive type hydrogel vaccine PCV2-6, a thermo-sensitive type hydrogel vaccine PCV2-7, and a thermo-sensitive type hydrogel vaccine PCV2-8 were prepared. Numerical numbers of the vaccines kept in consistence with numeral numbers of the thermo-sensitive type hydrogel adjuvants. A preparation of a control vaccine PCV2-1: with reference to a patent for the invention ZL201610243442.8, 30 g of Soluplus was weighed, 50 mM of phosphate buffer was added until a total mass was 100 g, the Soluplus was dispersed at 4C, and a control thermo-sensitive type gel substrate was obtained. The control thermo-sensitive type gel substrate was mixed with the porcine circovirus type 2 inactivated virus fluid at the mass ratio of 3: 1 uniformly, and the control vaccine PCV2-1 was prepared.
(3) Testing of physical properties of vaccines The thermo-sensitive type hydrogel vaccines 1-8 and the control vaccine PCV2-1 were stored at 4C and 37C respectively, changes in appearances were observed, and a viscosity was tested by the rotary viscosimeter method for determination in an Appendix of the current Chinese Veterinary Pharmacopoeia, with results shown in Table 2.

Control vaccine PCV2-1 Transparent Semi-transparent 63.97±4.06 solution gel The viscosities of all vaccines for injection shall not go beyond 200 cP according to the requirements of Chinese Veterinary Pharmacopoeia. The vaccines prepared from the thermo-sensitive type hydrogel adjuvants of the present invention meet the requirements. Table 2 showed that the viscosities of the vaccines were significantly lower than that of the control vaccine PCV2-1, making the vaccines convenient to be applied as clinical injections. (4) Safety evaluation of thermo-sensitive type hydrogel vaccines in mice 100 Balb/c female mice (18 g to 22 g) were divided into 10 groups randomly, each of which included 10 mice. The thermo-sensitive type hydrogel vaccines and the control vaccine PCV2-1 were used for immunizing a group of mice respectively. An immune method was as follows: the mice were immunized subcutaneously at scruffs, each of which was immunized with 0.2 mL of vaccine, and meanwhile, a blank control group, which was only injected with normal saline, was set. After the immunization, the mice were observed for 14 consecutive days, including feed intake, water intake, mental state, changes in injection sites, and abnormal behaviors, and pathological changes in the mice of different test groups were evaluated through tissue slices. Results of the tissue slices were shown in Fig. 1. The results showed that the mice in the test group, injected with the control vaccine PCV2-1 had the constant licking of the injection sites, and other minor stress reactions after being injected, and there were cases with slightunhairing nearby the injection sites after 14 days. In addition, the results of the slices showed a mild inflammatory cell infiltration. The mice in other thermo-sensitive type hydrogel vaccine groups showed no obvious stress reactions, and were in the good mental state without changes in the abnormal behaviors; and after the injection, there was no any skin damage or unhairing at the injection sites in each group. The results of the slices showed no obvious inflammatory cells. (4) Evaluation of immune efficiency of thermo-sensitive type hydrogel vaccines Hundred 14-day-old piglets with negative porcine circovirus type 2 antigens and antibodies were selected, and the piglets were divided into 10 groups randomly, each of which included 10 piglets. The thermo-sensitive type hydrogel vaccines and the control vaccine PCV2-1 were used for immunizing a group of piglets respectively, and meanwhile, a blank control group was set for not immunization. An immune procedure was as follows: the 14-day-old piglets were immunized for the first time, and were immunized for the second time at intervals of 21 days, with an immunizing dose of 1.0 ml/piglet per time. Blood sampling and the separation of serum were conducted sequentially, and the antibodies were tested with an ELISA assay kit for the porcine circovirus type 2 antibodies (Wuhan Keqian Biological Products Co., Ltd.) within 1 month, 2 months, 3 months, 4 months, and 6 months after the last immunization. A valence of a PCV2 antibody of each piglet in the blank control group should be negative (not higher than 1:40); the valence of the PCV2 antibody of each immunized piglet, which was larger than or equal to 1:40, indicated antibody positive; and antibody positive rates were counted.

According to the requirements of Compilation of Quality Standards for Veterinary Biological Products (2010), if the antibody positive rates were larger than or equal to 80%, the vaccines were deemed to be accepted. Table 3 showed that a duration of immunity of the vaccines prepared from the thermo-sensitive type hydrogel adjuvants 1-3 could be up to 6 months, and the duration of immunity of other vaccines didn't exceed 3 months. Therefore, the immune efficiency of the vaccines prepared from the thermo-sensitive type hydrogel adjuvants 1-3 was significantly superior to that of the vaccines prepared from the thermo-sensitive type hydrogel adjuvants 4-8 and the control thermo-sensitive type gel substrate. The vaccines prepared from the thermo-sensitive type hydrogel adjuvants 1-3 met the requirements of immunization of commercial piglets against diseases completely, which had a good application value. (5) Safety evaluation of thermo-sensitive type hydrogel vaccines in piglets In the title (4) of the embodiment, the 14-day-old piglets were immunized for the first time, and then, a body temperature was monitored for 7 consecutive days, with results shown in Table 4. Table 4 showed that after the immunization with each thermo-sensitive type hydrogel vaccine, the body temperature of the piglets fell within a normal range from 39.0°C to 40.0°C, and no fever symptoms were found; while the body temperature of the piglets was higher than 40.0°C within 1 to 5 d after being immunized for the first time with the control vaccine PCV2-1. Meanwhile, after an observation of the injection sites of the piglets which were immunized for the first time with naked eyes, no any injury, ulcer, and other abnormal phenomena at the injection sites were found in the piglets injected with each thermo-sensitive type hydrogel vaccine; and of the piglets injected with the immune control vaccine PCV2-1, there were 2 piglets which presented bumps at the injection sites, and the bumps would disappear after about 7 days. After the second immunization, no adverse reactions which were visible to the naked eyes were found at the injection sites of the piglets in each group. The above results indicated that after the vaccines which were prepared from the thermo-sensitive type hydrogel adjuvants 1-8 were used for immunizing the piglets, the side reaction was very small, and the piglets were safe.
