Description

A kind of three-dimensional manometer fibrous framework based on microflow control technique and electrostatic spinning technique and Its preparation method
Technical field
The present invention relates to microflow control technique and electrostatic spinning technique field, more particularly to a kind of microflow control technique to prepare uniformly Mono-dispersion microballoon and by electrostatic spinning technique that mono-dispersion microballoon is compound with nanofiber, preparing has " micro--to receive " compound The method of the three-dimensional manometer fibrous framework of structure.
Background technology
Angiocardiopathy produces great threat to human health, and there are 17,000,000 people in the whole world at the beginning of 21 century because of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular Disease death, to the year two thousand twenty, this number will be up to 25,000,000 people.With the rising of cardiovascular disease incidence rate, reconstructing blood vessel is facing There is increasingly consequence in bed surgical operation, but autologous vein source is very limited, the various bores of urgent clinical needs Vasotransplantation substitute.Heavy caliber artificial blood vessel is applied to clinic at present, and achieves satisfied effect.It is but small-bore Artificial blood vessel (diameter<The demand of clinic 6mm) is not met by, its main cause is when blood and artificial blood vessel lumen contact When, because CBF is small, flow velocity is slow, easily triggers platelet rich type thrombus, causes luminal stenosis, blood vessel embolism.Therefore, How small-caliber artificial blood vessel prevents Acute thrombosis and luminal stenosis after implanting, improve long-term patency rate and have become The difficult point and focus of artificial blood vessel research.
Endothelial cellular membrane is one layer of pinacocyte for being continuously covered in whole intravascular space surface, is between vascular wall Barrier between blood, smooth surface is provided for blood flow to maintain the normal fluidised form of blood.Endothelial cell is unique in vivo Cell type with anti-thrombus function, it can synthesize and secrete various bioactivators, prevent platelet adhesion reaction and aggregation, Effectively prevent thrombosis.Spontaneous endothelialization is the focus of artificial blood vessel research in recent years in small-caliber artificial blood vessel body, and The sticking of endothelial cell, breed and migration is an important factor for small-caliber artificial blood vessel influences spontaneous endothelialization after implanting One of.In angiogenic process, growth factor can promote angiogenesis, and the regeneration to blood vessel plays an important role.So And the expression quantity of growth factor is too high, most probably trigger vascular defect.Therefore, the controlled release system of growth factor is established, extends it Bioactivity in vivo simultaneously ensures steady slowly lasting release, avoids producing " peak valley " phenomenon during release, is effectively to play The key factor of growth factor effect.
Controlled release release is to make at the uniform velocity outside at regular time and quantity such as medicine, growth factor, gene the methods of passing through clothing film Release, makes its dosage slowly be discharged in vivo with certain speed in specific time range, to reach treatment disease, tissue Purpose expected from regeneration etc..Controlled release delivery systems have in terms of the validity such as medicine, growth factor, gene and security is improved The advantages of numerous, can not only effective control release speed, moreover it is possible to increase stability, maintain local concentration, improve medicine, growth The action and efficacies such as the factor, gene simultaneously reduce toxic side effect.Microballoon is a kind of wide variety of controlled release carrier, and researchers propose Many methods, including emulsion process, spray drying process, self-assembly method, template etc..But most method have it is certain Limitation, it is required to act on obtaining by mechanical external forces such as mechanical agitation, vibration, ultrasound homogenate than these preparation methods as described above Scattered emulsion droplet, this microballoon for introducing mechanical external force preparation are not sufficiently stable, and size is not uniform enough, architectural difference is big, dispersiveness Difference, influence effective controlled release release of medicine.In addition, strong mechanical external force effect and larger shearing force, can make protein, Polypeptide isoreactivity drug inactivation.Therefore, how to avoid mechanical external force from acting on as far as possible in preparation process, and how to prepare Uniform particle sizes, architectural difference be small, good dispersion microballoon, for preparation long-acting can discharge, toxic side effect is small, bioavilability High slow control-release microsphere has great importance.
Micro-fluidic (Microfluidics) is a kind of accurate control and manipulation minute yardstick fluid, especially refers in particular to sub-micron knot The technology of structure, it is a kind of very promising method for preparing the controllable polymer microballoon of size uniform, it is possible to achieve such as Janus, ternary, multinuclear or the microballoon of the different-shape such as hollow and composition.Therefore, we are equal using microflow control technique preparation size Even mono-dispersion microballoon loads growth factor, and accurately controls its particle diameter and drugloading rate, to reach stably and controllable release, avoids Side effect produces, so as to play safely and effectively and to greatest extent its biological effect.
Silk is a kind of special biomaterial to attract people's attention in recent years, and there is excellent biocompatibility and biology to drop Xie Xing, better than traditional synthesized degradable high polymer material.Silk is made up of two kinds of albumen, and internal layer is fibroin albumen, outer layer quilt Sericin coats.Fibroin albumen has good human body compatibility, nontoxic and biodegradable etc. premium properties, can be prepared into more Kind form, is a kind of more satisfactory bio-medical material.This patent is by the growth factor microballoon and fibroin albumen of size uniform Electrospun nano-fibers support is combined, to prepare the function and can reservation silk fibroin nano-fiber that can embody microballoon The composite nano fiber scaffold of performance.
Electrospun nano-fibers support is because having bionic extracellular matrix, higher porosity and larger specific surface area The features such as and in field of tissue engineering technology by extensive concern, but its fine and close structure is difficult to make cell grow into internal stent.For The more preferable structure for imitating natural extracellular matrix, promotes cell to grow into nano fiber scaffold inside.We are by fibroin egg PEO (PEO) solution of white solution and the microballoon containing fibroin albumen carries out electrostatic spinning simultaneously according to different ratios, with After dissolve PEO fibers therein, prepare the three-dimensional manometer fibrous framework with " micro--to receive " composite construction.The support can make Cell is internally grown into, and promotes the growth and migration of cell, has the long-term patency rate for improving small-caliber artificial blood vessel and remodeling The dual-use function of vascular wall.
The content of the invention
In order to solve small-caliber artificial blood vessel Acute thrombosis and luminal stenosis, and long-term patency rate in the prior art The problem of low.It is an object of the invention to provide one kind cell is grown into internal stent, promotes the growth and migration of cell, With " micro--to receive " the complex three-dimensional Nanowire for improving small-caliber artificial blood vessel long-term patency rate and remodeling vascular wall dual-use function Dimensional scaffold.
