Description
r _.
Hemocompatible surfaces and process for the production thereof The present invention concerns hemocompatible surfaces which are characterized in that constituents of the outer layers of blood cells and/or mesothelial cells are applied and/or incorporated onto and/or into the surfaces of materials.
The present invention further concerns a process for manufacturing hemocompatible surfaces~and their use in extensive fields of health, in medicine, dentistry, surgery, cosmetics and/or fields having direct contact with blood, tissue and/or other body fluids.
In the case of vertebrates, blood coagulation is a complex process which temporarily protects against critical losses of blood in the case of injury. The blood coagulation system is activated, among other things, by contact with unphysiologic, i. e., 'exogenous' substances in this case. Substances which actively suppress the blood coagulation system are also referred to as anti-thrombogenic. Substances which do not even activate the blood coagulation system are defined as non-thrombogenic.
Especially in the case of invasive operations, the activation of the blood coagulation system is a serious problem for the patient. This is, in particular, the case for people dependent on implants, such as intra-coronary stents, cardiac valves, prosthetic devices, artificial vascular systems, dialysers, or oxygenators, catheters, biosensors etc.. Contact with surgical suture materials can also cause problems.
Until now, in order to prevent the formation of critical occlusions of vessels (thrombi), the blood coagulation system has been deactivated or actively suppressed. This is normally done by the administration of anti-thrombogenic medicine, so-called anticoagulants, which however, have many serious side effects for the patient, such as thrombocytopenia, nausea, vomiting, hair loss, haemorrhagic skin gangrenes, higher tendency to bleed etc.. Moreover, if intra-coronary stents or cardiac valves are used, even the complete medicamentous suppression of blood coagulation often does not sufficiently prevent the formation of thrombosis, which can cause death.
In extensive fields of health, in medicine, dentistry, surgery, cosmetics or, in general, fields having contact with blood and/or other body fluids in invasive operations, it is therefore very important to avoid the above-mentioned serious side effects caused by anticoagulants.
From prior art, various processes are known which are intended to make unphysiologic ~foreig~ surfaces' more blood compatible (hemocompatible) or histocompatible by coating with different substances.
DE 28 31 360, for example, describes a process for coating a surface of a medical article with a substance (heparin) which actively suppresses the coagulation system, i. e., is anti-thrombogenic. Said substance, however, has the disadvantage of serious side effects for the patient, as already mentioned before by way of example.
In DE 44 35 652, materials are coated with a thin coat of lacquer of polymers into which medicinal agents can be additionally incorporated, wherein said coat of lacquer permanently degrades in the body and is thus released. The disadvantages of this method are, first of all, that because of the permanent degradation of the coating only a temporally limited effect can be achieved. Secondly, due to the permanent f separation of particles of lacquer, there is__a,high danger of the formation of thrombosis, which can cause embolisms.
DE 196 30 879 exclusively uses chemically modified derivatives of polysaccharides for coating substrates. There are various disadvantages regarding this process, ranging from excessive preparative expenses to synthesis steps including many stages, a wide range of undesirable side reactions and poor exploitation up to worse properties of the derivatives in every respect when compared to commercially available anti-thrombogenic substances such as heparin. _ Verhagen et al. (British Journal of Heamatology, 1996, 95:
542-549) describes the use of entire living cells of the endothelium or the mesothelium for the colonisation of implants. The disadvantage of using entire cells is the fact that, due to specific cell surface proteins, immune reactions are caused, which cause rejection reactions against the coated implants for the patients. Substances inducing such an immune reaction are also called immunogenic. To prevent a rejection by immune reactions, it is necessary that exclusively cell material of the patients themselves is used in this process.
This is a further disadvantage because considerable time and costs are involved in culturing these cells. A further problem regarding the use of entire cells are the high shearing forces to which these cells are subjected in the blood stream. This leads to an increased degradation of the cells at the surfaces, which has a negative effect on the durability of the coated implants.
Also WO 93/01843, WO 95/29712 and DE 195 05 070 describe the use of entire living endothelial cells for coating unphysiologic materials or the use of substances contributing to the growing of living endothelial cells on artificial materials. But also in these cases, all processes are based on r the cultivation of living endothelial cells, which involves the disadvantages mentioned above with respect to the time . required and the cost involved or the considerable limitation that the coated material cannot be used universally, but has to be produced separately for every patient.
From patent specification DE 36 39 561, the production of substrates coated with the specific endothelial cell surface proteopolysaccharide HS-I is known. The disadvantage of the process is the fact that also in this case considerable amounts of endothelial~cells of the patients-themselves are required for isolating these components. This requires for every patient a time-consuming and cost-intensive cultivation of his endogenous endothelial cells, which, in addition, is followed by a costly preparation of the proteopolysaccharide HS-I. Therefore, the mass production of HS-I and thus an economic use of this process for coating implants cannot be realized.
Accordingly, the object of the present invention is to provide blood compatible (hemocompatible) or histocompatible surfaces which do not show the disadvantages mentioned above and are, at the'same time, suitable for mass production.
According to the invention, the object is solved by means of hemocompatible surfaces characterized in that they contain as the materials artificial and/or natural organic and/or inorganic compounds and/or mixtures thereof and/or materials having contact with blood and/or other body fluids in invasive operations and/or animal organs and/or organ parts, and constituents of the outer layer of blood cells and/or mesothelial cells are applied and/or incorporated onto and/or into the surface of said materials.
i I
The hemocompatible surfaces of the invention__thus substantially imitate the outer surface of blood and/or mesothelial cells, synonymous with the imitation of the natural surface of non-thrombogenic cells and/or tissue.
The blood coagulation system is therefore neither activated nor actively suppressed by the hemocompatible surfaces.
Accordingly, a blood coagulation which is, for example, caused by secondary injuries (cuts or the like) can take place in a completely natural and undisturbed way.
A further advantage of the present invention is the fact that an adhesion of cells such as thrombocytes on the hemocompatible surfaces according to the invention does not occur. This is desired by the invention because the risk of the formation of thrombi, i. e., the danger of a thrombosis (embolism) for the patient treated is minimized thereby. The hemocompatible surfaces according to the invention do no cause any side effects.
According to the invention, the hemocompatible surfaces are further characterized by the fact that they are non-thrombogenic in the long term. This means that their advantageous properties are not used up in the course of time, which is, for example, the case for pharmaceutically active systems (for example release system). For this reason, the surfaces according to the invention are also suitable for permanent use, so that additional burdening and risks for the patients by repeated invasive operations for renewing the implants are minimized.
According to the invention, the hemocompatible surfaces contain as the materials artificial and/or natural organic and/or inorganic compounds and/or mixtures thereof and/or materials having contact with blood and/or other body fluids in invasive operations and/or animal organs and/or organ parts, and constituents of the outer layers of blood cells and/or mesothelial cells are applied and/or incorporated onto and/or into the surfaces thereof.
In the sense of the invention, materials refer to any materials which, according to the invention, are suitable for being loaded with cell constituents. Also comprised are any materials which can come into contact with blood and/or body fluids during invasive operations or in connection with respective postoperative care.
Organic compounds refer, for example, to synthetically produced or naturally occurring high-molecular weight substances and their derivatives. Examples for these are, among others, any kinds of plastics, elastomers, silicones or fibrous substances. They include, for example, polyethylenes (PE), polyvinyl chlorides (PVC), polyurethanes (PUR), polyamides (PA), phenoplasts (PF), aminoplasts, polystyrene, polyester, resins, silicones, rubbers, man-made fibers, cellulose fibers, cellulose membranes, protein fibers, collagens, as well as derivatives thereof or combinations thereof. Further comprised according to the invention are mixtures of these polymers, so-called polymer blends.
In a special embodiment of the present invention, as materials, the hemocompatible surfaces according to the invention can include animal organs, organ parts or vascular systems. They can, for example, be cardiac valves and/or vascular systems, wherein pigs or cattle are especially suitable as sources.
Examples for inorganic compounds included by the hemocompatible surfaces according to the invention are metals, metal oxides, alloys or ceramics, glasses and/or minerals as well as derivatives thereof or any possible combinations and/or mixtures thereof. According to the invention, any possibilities of combination of materials are possible. The examples explain the present invention in greater detail, but are not intended to be limiting.
According to the invention, constituents of the outer layers of blood cells and/or mesothelial cells are incorporated and/or applied into and/or onto the surface of the materials.
In one embodiment of the present invention, the hemocompatible surfaces include in and/or on the surface of materials glycoproteins, preferably glycophorins. Said glycophorins are, among other things, characterized by non-thrombogenic properties, and are therefore excellently suitable for making hemocompatible surfaces according to the invention.
The glycophorins of the outer layer of the erythrocytes, determine, among other things, the blood group to which a human being belongs. Analogously to the different blood groups A, B, AB and 0, the corresponding erythrocytes contain glycophorin A, glycophorin B or glycophorin 0 or respective mixtures thereof.
A possible immunological response by cross-reactions of blood groups which are not compatible with each other, i. e., clotting of blood (coagulation) can be avoided in a simple way by matching with respect to the blood group of the patient treated and the glycophorins applied and/or incorporated onto and/or into the surfaces of materials of the hemocompatible surfaces of the invention which are intended for application, wherein said matching is carried out before the invasive operation. Respective blood tests are common practice in laboratories and, accordingly, are carried out routinely.
Provided that the blood-group compatibility is observed, hemocompatible surfaces containing glycophorin can thus also y r be used universally, i. e., they are not restricted to only one patient.
The present invention further concerns hemocompatible surfaces including on and/or in the surfaces of the materials oligosaccharide, polysaccharide and/or lipid portions of the glycoproteins, glycolipids and/or proteoglycans from the outer layer of blood cells and/or mesothelial cells.
In a further embodiment of the present invention, the hemocompatible surfaces contain glycosphingolipids on and/or in the surfaces of the materials.
The hemocompatible surfaces of the present invention further can contain as the oligosaccharide or polysaccharide portions of the proteoglycans hyaluronic acids, chondroitin sulfates, dermatan sulfates, heparan sulfates, keratan sulfates or mixtures thereof. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the hemocompatible surfaces contain heparan sulfate of the erythrocyte plasma membrane of animal and/or human origin.
The hemocompatible surfaces according to the invention do not show any side effects, which are caused, for example by chemically or pharmaceutically active coatings.
The above-mentioned constituents of the blood and/or mesothelial cells are non-immunogenic cell constituents.
Accordingly, the hemocompatible surfaces according to the invention are characterized in that they are also non-immunogenic. This means they do not cause an immune reaction for the patient, which minimizes the danger of rejection of the hemocompatible surfaces.
' 9 ' According to the invention, the hemocompatible,surfaces are non-thrombogenic and/or non-immunogenic.
A further advantage is the fact that almost no degradation takes place at the hemocompatible surfaces due to the firm attachment of the non-thrombogenic constituents of the outer layers of the blood and/or mesothelial cells on the materials according to the invention. The danger of the formation of embolisms by thrombosis is thus minimized. Furthermore, there is no accumulation of cells such as thrombocytes on the hemocompatible _surfaces according to the invention. This also minimizes the danger of thrombosis.
The subject matter of the invention further comprises a process for the production of the hemocompatible surfaces according to the invention, wherein glycophorins, oligosaccharide, polysaccharide and/or lipid portions of the glycoproteins, glycolipids and/or proteoglycans from the~outer layer of blood cells and/or mesothelial cells are isolated, and these cell constituents are applied and/or incorporated onto and/or into the surfaces of materials of artificial and/or natural organic and/or inorganic compounds and/or mixtures thereof and/or materials having contact with blood and/or other body fluids in invasive operations and/or animal organs and/or organ parts by physical or chemical bonding.
According to the invention, the constituents of the outer layer of blood cells are isolated from whole blood and/or from cell fractions obtained therefrom of human or animal origin. This means that the cell constituents are isolated from erythrocytes, leucocytes and/or thrombocytes or mixtures thereof. Preferred are mixtures of erythrocytes and leucocytes. Especially preferred are erythrocytes.
Y
The constituents of the outer layer of mesothelial cells are, according to the invention, isolated from omentum, peritoneum and/or inner organs.
A cheap and easily accessible source for these starting materials can be waste from slaughtering, for example.
The isolation of the constituents of the outer layer of the blood cells, mesothelial cells or of the tissue rich in mesothelial cells is~carried out in a common manner in this case. The following processes or combinations:thereof are, for example, possible: comminution, extraction, filtration, precipitation, gel filtration, ion exchange chromatography, affinity chromatography, electrophoresis, enzymatic or chemical degradations, drying, dissolution, dialysis, ultrafiltration etc..
According to the invention, for applying and/or incorporating the cell constituents onto and/or into the surface of the materials, a chemical immobilization, photoimmobilization, adhesion, drying process or a combination thereof is carried out. Covalent, ionic, secondary valence or electrostatic or adhesive bonds or combinations thereof can be formed between the constituents of the outer layer of the cells and the surfaces of the materials in this case. Preferably, the application or integration of the constituents of the outer cell layer onto/into the surfaces of materials is carried out by covalent bonds.
A special advantage of the present invention is the fact that the production process according to the invention combines enormous economical advantages compared to the processes known until now, and, accordingly, the hemocompatible surfaces according to the invention are suitable for mass production.
The reasons for this are, for example, that, according to the invention, cell constituents and not living cells are used, that no endogenous (endothelial) cells of the patient must be used, that the starting material for the isolation of said cell constituents is cheap and available in big amounts (waste from slaughtering), so that cell cultivation, which is very time-consuming and cost-intensive, is not necessary. A further advantage of the hemocompatible surfaces according to the invention is the fact that they can be used universally and are not restricted to the use for only one patient. Above all, in the case of emergency operations, this advantage is essential for a patient's life.
There is a wide range of fields of applications in which the present invention can be used. The present invention concerns the use of hemocompatible surfaces in extensive fields of health, in medicine, dentistry, surgery or cosmetics and/or in fields having contact with blood, tissue and/or other body fluids during invasive operations.
In the following, the invention is described i~ greater detail with reference to the examples, which, however, are not intended to be limiting:
1.) Isolation of erythrocyte plasma membrane heparan sulfate:
One liter of erythrocytes which have been washed free of serum are suspended in 1 liter of a 0.154 molar phosphate buffer pH
7, and 1 U/ml papain is added. After 2 hours of incubation at 56~C, centrifuging takes place at 3000 g for 20 minutes, and, subsequently, the supernatant is decanted. In this supernatant, 100 ml of DEAF Sepharose~ CL-6B ion exchanger gel of the company Pharmacia Biotech are suspended. The gel loaded in this way is still washed three times in a 0.1 molar saline ' 12 solution and filled into a chromatographic column. The elution takes place by means of a linear sodium chloride gradient in the range of 0.1 to 0.8 moles/1 over an entire elution volume of 2 liters. 200 fractions of a volume of 10 ml each are collected. The fractions showing a positive color reaction with dimethylmethylene blue (DN~IB) of the company Fluka according to the method described by Chandrasekhar et al (Analytical Biochemistry, 161 (1987): 130-108) are united. The solution of the collected fractions is narrowed down at 26.7 hPa (20 torrs) and 40°C and dialysed against water. The dialysate is set to a volume of 100 ml and a concentration of 0.03 moles/1 of sodium acetate, 0.073 moles/1 of tris (tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane of the company Fluka) and pH 8.0, 1 U of chondroitinase ABC is added, and incubation takes place at 37°C for 15 hours. After dialysing against water and narrowing down under water jet vacuum, the resulting solution is again applied onto a column with 100 ml of DEAE
Sepharose CL-6B of the company Pharmacia Biotech. and eluted as described before. The DN>MB positive gradient fractions are dialysed, narrowed down under water jet vacuum to a volume of 1 ml and chromatographed on a column for preparative gel filtration (60 cm x 2 cm) using a Sephacryl~ S-300 gel (Pharmacia Biotech.). 60 fractions of a volume of 2 ml each are collected, detected with DrM~iB, and the positive fractions are united. After repeated dialysis and lyophilisation, the purified erythrocyte plasma membrane heparan sulfate will be obtained.
2.) Isolation of leucocyte surface proteo-chondroitin sulfate:
One liter of citrate blood is centrifuged for 10 minutes in a centrifuge with a swing-out rotor at 3000 g, and the supernatant plasma is drawn off. The cell sediment is mixed with 2 liters of a 1% ammonium oxalate solution cooled to 4°C, and is incubated for 30 minutes at the same temperature. After minutes of centrifugation at 500 g, the red supernatant is discarded and the pellet is suspended in 2 liters of a 1%
ammonium oxalate solution cooled to 4°C, centrifuged for 5 minutes at 500 g, and the washing process as described above is repeated two more times. The supernatant which is now colorless is discarded, and the washed cell sediment (yield:
12 x 10' - 10 x 109 cells in 2 liters of triton X-100 buffer (0.5 % triton x-loo, to mM tris-HGI, 15o mM NaG, pH s) is lysed for 2 hours at 25°C under constant stirring. The detergent extract is centrifuged for 60 minutes at 10,000 g, decanted, and in the supernatant, 10 ml of DEAE Sephadex~ A50 ion exchanger gel of the company Pharmacia Biotech are suspended and sedimentated. The gel loaded in this way is still washed three times in a 0.1 molar saline solution and filled into a chromatographic column. The elution of the column takes place by means of a linear sodium chloride gradient in the range of 0.1 to 0.8 moles/1 over an entire elution volume of 2 liters. 100 fractions of a volume of 2 ml each are collected, and the fractions showing a positive color reaction with dimethylmethylene blue (DN~IB) of the company Fluka are united. The solution is narrowed down at 26.7 hPa (20 torrs) and 40°C and dialysed against water. The dialysate is set to a volume of 100 ml and a concentration of 0.1 mmoles/1 of calcium acetate and 0.1 moles/1 of sodium acetate, titrated with acetic acid to pH 7, 1 U of heparinase I, heparinase II and heparinase III are added, respectively, and incubation takes place at 37°C for 15 hours.
After dialysing against water and narrowing down under water jet vacuum, the resulting solution is again applied onto a column with 10 ml of DEAE Sephadex A50 of the company Pharmacia Biotech. and eluted as described above. The DN~IB
positive gradient fractions are dialysed, narrowed down under water jet vacuum to a volume of 1 ml and chromatographed on a column for preparative gel filtration (60 cm x 2 cm) using a '14 Sepharose CI-4B gel of the company Pharmacia biotech. 60 fractions of a volume of 2 ml each are collected, detected with DMMB, and the positive fractions are united. After repeated dialysis and lyophilisation, the cleaned leucocyte surface proteo-chondroitin sulfate will be obtained.
3.) Isolation of heparaa sulfate/chondroitin sulfate mixture from omentum:
One kilogram of fresh bovine omentum is washed with a 0.9 %
NaCI solution, freeze-dried, ground, and degreased with 1 liter of acetone by stirring over night at room temperature. After filtering and drying, the resulting powder is suspended in a 6 molar urea solution and stirred over night at room temperature. After centrifugation at 3000 g for one hour, the mucous supernatant is decanted, cooled to 4°C, mixed with the same volume of 1 molar NaOH of a temperature of 4°C, and incubated for 15 hours at 4°C. Subsequently, neutralization with dilute HCI, dialyzing against water and centrifugation for 1 hour at 3000 g takes place, and the supernatant is decanted. In the supernatant, 100 ml of DEAF Sepharose CL-6B
ion exchanger gel of the company Pharmacia Biotech are suspended and sedimentated. The gel loaded in this way is still washed three times in a 0.1 molar sodium chloride solution and filled into a chromatographic column. The elution of the column takes place by means of a linear sodium chloride gradient in the range of 0.1 to 0.8 moles/1 over an entire elution volume of 2 liters. 200 fractions of a volume of 10 ml each are collected, and the fractions showing a positive color reaction with dimethylmethylene blue (D~) are united.
The solution is narrowed down at 26.7 hPa (20 torrs) and 40°C

the company Pharmacia Biotech.. 60 fractions of a volume of 10 ml each are collected, detected with DNll4IB, and the positive fractions are united. After repeated dialysis and lyophilisation, the purified mesothelial-cell-surface glycosamino glycan mixture will be obtained.
4.) Isolation of mesothelial cell surface chondroitin sulfate from tissues rich in mesothelial cells:
One kilogram of fresh bovine kidneys are washed with a 0.9 %
NaCI solution, freeze-dried, ground, and degreased with 1 liter of acetone by stirring over night at room temperature. After filtering and drying, the resulting powder is suspended in a 4 molar guanidinium chloride solution and stirred over night at room temperature. After centrifugation at 3000 g for one hour, the mucous supernatant is decanted, cooled to 4°C, mixed with the same volume of 1 molar NaOH of a temperature of 4°C, and incubated for 15 hours at 4°C. Subsequently, neutralization with dilute HCI, dialyzing against water and centrifugation for 1 hour at 3000 g takes place, and the supernatant is decanted. In the supernatant, 100 ml of DEAF Sephacel~ ion exchanger gel are suspended and sedimentated. The gel loaded in this way is still washed three times in a 0.1 molar sodium chloride solution and filled into a chromatographic column.
The elution of the column takes place by means of a linear sodium chloride gradient in the range of 0.1 to 0.8 moles/1 over an entire elution volume of 2 liters. 200 fractions of a volume of 10 ml each are collected, and the fractions showing a positive color reaction with DMMB are united. The solution is narrowed down at 26.7 hPa (20 torrs) and 40°C and dialyzed against water.

The DN~iB positive gradient fractions are analysed, narrowed down under water jet vacuum to a volume of 1 ml and chromatographed on a column for preparative gel filtration (60 cm x 5 cm) using a Sephacryl S-300 gel. 60 fractions of a volume of 10 ml each are collected, detected with DN~iB, and the positive fractions.are united. After repeated dialysis and lyophilisation, the purified mesothelial cell surface chondroitin sulfate will be obtained.
Hemocompatible surfaces and process for the production thereof The present invention concerns hemocompatible surfaces which are characterized in that constituents of the outer layers of blood cells and/or mesothelial cells are applied and/or incorporated onto and/or into the surfaces of materials.
The present invention further concerns a process for manufacturing hemocompatible surfaces~and their use in extensive fields of health, in medicine, dentistry, surgery, cosmetics and/or fields having direct contact with blood, tissue and/or other body fluids.

There are various disadvantages regarding this process, ranging from excessive preparative expenses to synthesis steps including many stages, a wide range of undesirable side reactions and poor exploitation up to worse properties of the derivatives in every respect when compared to commercially available anti-thrombogenic substances such as heparin. _ Verhagen et al. (British Journal of Heamatology, 1996, 95:
542-549) describes the use of entire living cells of the endothelium or the mesothelium for the colonisation of implants. The disadvantage of using entire cells is the fact that, due to specific cell surface proteins, immune reactions are caused, which cause rejection reactions against the coated implants for the patients. Substances inducing such an immune reaction are also called immunogenic. To prevent a rejection by immune reactions, it is necessary that exclusively cell material of the patients themselves is used in this process.
This is a further disadvantage because considerable time and costs are involved in culturing these cells. A further problem regarding the use of entire cells are the high shearing forces to which these cells are subjected in the blood stream. This leads to an increased degradation of the cells at the surfaces, which has a negative effect on the durability of the coated implants.
Also WO 93/01843, WO 95/29712 and DE 195 05 070 describe the use of entire living endothelial cells for coating unphysiologic materials or the use of substances contributing to the growing of living endothelial cells on artificial materials. But also in these cases, all processes are based on r the cultivation of living endothelial cells, which involves the disadvantages mentioned above with respect to the time . required and the cost involved or the considerable limitation that the coated material cannot be used universally, but has to be produced separately for every patient.
From patent specification DE 36 39 561, the production of substrates coated with the specific endothelial cell surface proteopolysaccharide HS-I is known. The disadvantage of the process is the fact that also in this case considerable amounts of endothelial~cells of the patients-themselves are required for isolating these components. This requires for every patient a time-consuming and cost-intensive cultivation of his endogenous endothelial cells, which, in addition, is followed by a costly preparation of the proteopolysaccharide HS-I. Therefore, the mass production of HS-I and thus an economic use of this process for coating implants cannot be realized.
Accordingly, the object of the present invention is to provide blood compatible (hemocompatible) or histocompatible surfaces which do not show the disadvantages mentioned above and are, at the'same time, suitable for mass production.
According to the invention, the object is solved by means of hemocompatible surfaces characterized in that they contain as the materials artificial and/or natural organic and/or inorganic compounds and/or mixtures thereof and/or materials having contact with blood and/or other body fluids in invasive operations and/or animal organs and/or organ parts, and constituents of the outer layer of blood cells and/or mesothelial cells are applied and/or incorporated onto and/or into the surface of said materials.
i I
The hemocompatible surfaces of the invention__thus substantially imitate the outer surface of blood and/or mesothelial cells, synonymous with the imitation of the natural surface of non-thrombogenic cells and/or tissue.
The blood coagulation system is therefore neither activated nor actively suppressed by the hemocompatible surfaces.
Accordingly, a blood coagulation which is, for example, caused by secondary injuries (cuts or the like) can take place in a completely natural and undisturbed way.
A further advantage of the present invention is the fact that an adhesion of cells such as thrombocytes on the hemocompatible surfaces according to the invention does not occur. This is desired by the invention because the risk of the formation of thrombi, i. e., the danger of a thrombosis (embolism) for the patient treated is minimized thereby. The hemocompatible surfaces according to the invention do no cause any side effects.
According to the invention, the hemocompatible surfaces are further characterized by the fact that they are non-thrombogenic in the long term. This means that their advantageous properties are not used up in the course of time, which is, for example, the case for pharmaceutically active systems (for example release system). For this reason, the surfaces according to the invention are also suitable for permanent use, so that additional burdening and risks for the patients by repeated invasive operations for renewing the implants are minimized.
According to the invention, the hemocompatible surfaces contain as the materials artificial and/or natural organic and/or inorganic compounds and/or mixtures thereof and/or materials having contact with blood and/or other body fluids in invasive operations and/or animal organs and/or organ parts, and constituents of the outer layers of blood cells and/or mesothelial cells are applied and/or incorporated onto and/or into the surfaces thereof.
In the sense of the invention, materials refer to any materials which, according to the invention, are suitable for being loaded with cell constituents. Also comprised are any materials which can come into contact with blood and/or body fluids during invasive operations or in connection with respective postoperative care.
Organic compounds refer, for example, to synthetically produced or naturally occurring high-molecular weight substances and their derivatives. Examples for these are, among others, any kinds of plastics, elastomers, silicones or fibrous substances. They include, for example, polyethylenes (PE), polyvinyl chlorides (PVC), polyurethanes (PUR), polyamides (PA), phenoplasts (PF), aminoplasts, polystyrene, polyester, resins, silicones, rubbers, man-made fibers, cellulose fibers, cellulose membranes, protein fibers, collagens, as well as derivatives thereof or combinations thereof. Further comprised according to the invention are mixtures of these polymers, so-called polymer blends.
In a special embodiment of the present invention, as materials, the hemocompatible surfaces according to the invention can include animal organs, organ parts or vascular systems. They can, for example, be cardiac valves and/or vascular systems, wherein pigs or cattle are especially suitable as sources.
Examples for inorganic compounds included by the hemocompatible surfaces according to the invention are metals, metal oxides, alloys or ceramics, glasses and/or minerals as well as derivatives thereof or any possible combinations and/or mixtures thereof. According to the invention, any possibilities of combination of materials are possible. The examples explain the present invention in greater detail, but are not intended to be limiting.
According to the invention, constituents of the outer layers of blood cells and/or mesothelial cells are incorporated and/or applied into and/or onto the surface of the materials.
In one embodiment of the present invention, the hemocompatible surfaces include in and/or on the surface of materials glycoproteins, preferably glycophorins. Said glycophorins are, among other things, characterized by non-thrombogenic properties, and are therefore excellently suitable for making hemocompatible surfaces according to the invention.
The glycophorins of the outer layer of the erythrocytes, determine, among other things, the blood group to which a human being belongs. Analogously to the different blood groups A, B, AB and 0, the corresponding erythrocytes contain glycophorin A, glycophorin B or glycophorin 0 or respective mixtures thereof.
A possible immunological response by cross-reactions of blood groups which are not compatible with each other, i. e., clotting of blood (coagulation) can be avoided in a simple way by matching with respect to the blood group of the patient treated and the glycophorins applied and/or incorporated onto and/or into the surfaces of materials of the hemocompatible surfaces of the invention which are intended for application, wherein said matching is carried out before the invasive operation. Respective blood tests are common practice in laboratories and, accordingly, are carried out routinely.
Provided that the blood-group compatibility is observed, hemocompatible surfaces containing glycophorin can thus also y r be used universally, i. e., they are not restricted to only one patient.
The present invention further concerns hemocompatible surfaces including on and/or in the surfaces of the materials oligosaccharide, polysaccharide and/or lipid portions of the glycoproteins, glycolipids and/or proteoglycans from the outer layer of blood cells and/or mesothelial cells.
In a further embodiment of the present invention, the hemocompatible surfaces contain glycosphingolipids on and/or in the surfaces of the materials.
The hemocompatible surfaces of the present invention further can contain as the oligosaccharide or polysaccharide portions of the proteoglycans hyaluronic acids, chondroitin sulfates, dermatan sulfates, heparan sulfates, keratan sulfates or mixtures thereof. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the hemocompatible surfaces contain heparan sulfate of the erythrocyte plasma membrane of animal and/or human origin.
The hemocompatible surfaces according to the invention do not show any side effects, which are caused, for example by chemically or pharmaceutically active coatings.
The above-mentioned constituents of the blood and/or mesothelial cells are non-immunogenic cell constituents.
Accordingly, the hemocompatible surfaces according to the invention are characterized in that they are also non-immunogenic. This means they do not cause an immune reaction for the patient, which minimizes the danger of rejection of the hemocompatible surfaces.
' 9 ' According to the invention, the hemocompatible,surfaces are non-thrombogenic and/or non-immunogenic.
A further advantage is the fact that almost no degradation takes place at the hemocompatible surfaces due to the firm attachment of the non-thrombogenic constituents of the outer layers of the blood and/or mesothelial cells on the materials according to the invention. The danger of the formation of embolisms by thrombosis is thus minimized. Furthermore, there is no accumulation of cells such as thrombocytes on the hemocompatible _surfaces according to the invention. This also minimizes the danger of thrombosis.
The subject matter of the invention further comprises a process for the production of the hemocompatible surfaces according to the invention, wherein glycophorins, oligosaccharide, polysaccharide and/or lipid portions of the glycoproteins, glycolipids and/or proteoglycans from the~outer layer of blood cells and/or mesothelial cells are isolated, and these cell constituents are applied and/or incorporated onto and/or into the surfaces of materials of artificial and/or natural organic and/or inorganic compounds and/or mixtures thereof and/or materials having contact with blood and/or other body fluids in invasive operations and/or animal organs and/or organ parts by physical or chemical bonding.
According to the invention, the constituents of the outer layer of blood cells are isolated from whole blood and/or from cell fractions obtained therefrom of human or animal origin. This means that the cell constituents are isolated from erythrocytes, leucocytes and/or thrombocytes or mixtures thereof. Preferred are mixtures of erythrocytes and leucocytes. Especially preferred are erythrocytes.
Y
The constituents of the outer layer of mesothelial cells are, according to the invention, isolated from omentum, peritoneum and/or inner organs.
A cheap and easily accessible source for these starting materials can be waste from slaughtering, for example.
The isolation of the constituents of the outer layer of the blood cells, mesothelial cells or of the tissue rich in mesothelial cells is~carried out in a common manner in this case. The following processes or combinations:thereof are, for example, possible: comminution, extraction, filtration, precipitation, gel filtration, ion exchange chromatography, affinity chromatography, electrophoresis, enzymatic or chemical degradations, drying, dissolution, dialysis, ultrafiltration etc..
According to the invention, for applying and/or incorporating the cell constituents onto and/or into the surface of the materials, a chemical immobilization, photoimmobilization, adhesion, drying process or a combination thereof is carried out. Covalent, ionic, secondary valence or electrostatic or adhesive bonds or combinations thereof can be formed between the constituents of the outer layer of the cells and the surfaces of the materials in this case. Preferably, the application or integration of the constituents of the outer cell layer onto/into the surfaces of materials is carried out by covalent bonds.
A special advantage of the present invention is the fact that the production process according to the invention combines enormous economical advantages compared to the processes known until now, and, accordingly, the hemocompatible surfaces according to the invention are suitable for mass production.
The reasons for this are, for example, that, according to the invention, cell constituents and not living cells are used, that no endogenous (endothelial) cells of the patient must be used, that the starting material for the isolation of said cell constituents is cheap and available in big amounts (waste from slaughtering), so that cell cultivation, which is very time-consuming and cost-intensive, is not necessary. A further advantage of the hemocompatible surfaces according to the invention is the fact that they can be used universally and are not restricted to the use for only one patient. Above all, in the case of emergency operations, this advantage is essential for a patient's life.
There is a wide range of fields of applications in which the present invention can be used. The present invention concerns the use of hemocompatible surfaces in extensive fields of health, in medicine, dentistry, surgery or cosmetics and/or in fields having contact with blood, tissue and/or other body fluids during invasive operations.
