Description

Ursolic acid polymer drug-loaded nanoparticle and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The present invention belongs to the field of biomedical polymer material and medicine technology. More particularly, relates to ursolic acid polymer drug-loaded nanoparticles and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
The focus of the current nano-drugs is mainly the research on the theoretical transmission route and the targeting function of pharmaceutical preparations, therapeutic preparations and diagnostic preparations. In particular, it is aimed at tumor targeting, including accurate identification of tumor sites and reduction of side effects. After intravenous administration, the antitumor nano-drug will have complex interaction (nano-bio interaction) with biological systems (such as protein, cells, body fluid, tissues and organs, etc. therein), which will greatly affect the antitumor effect of the nano-drug. After the ideal anti-tumor nano material enters an organism, the interaction between the ideal anti-tumor nano material and a biological system can be effectively and self-regulated along with the difference of the reached tissue parts; in the blood circulation process, the nano-drug should avoid or reduce the interaction with phagocytes such as macrophages and the like as much as possible; when the nano-drug reaches the tumor tissue, the nano-drug can enhance the interaction with the tumor cells; in tumor cells, the nanomedicines should be able to rapidly release active drug molecules to enhance the interaction with the drug target. Although this design principle is consistently recognized by researchers, the challenges of how to implement such a principle are still great.
The traditional drug delivery mode has certain defects: firstly, the accumulation concentration of the drug in tumor tissues is insufficient due to the over-short circulation time of the drug, and the preset effect is not achieved or the dosage is increased; secondly, common antitumor drugs have certain cytotoxicity and generate toxic and side effects on normal tissue cells in vivo, and the defects greatly limit the clinical application of the antitumor drugs. Therefore, it is a problem to be solved how to prolong the circulation time of the drug in vivo, increase the concentration of the drug in the tumor tissue, release the drug in the target of the tumor tissue, and reduce the toxic and side effects to the normal tissue. And the selection of an appropriate carrier for drug delivery is an effective strategy. The materials often used as the drug carrier include natural polymer materials such as lipids, saccharides, proteins and the like, while the non-toxic carrier materials approved by the FDA in the United states for injection at present include polylactic acid (PLA), polylactic-polyglycolic acid copolymer (PLGA) and the like which belong to synthetic polyester polymer materials, and the carrier materials have good biocompatibility and degradability, and the prepared nanoparticles can wrap small-molecule drugs so as to prolong the action time of the small-molecule drugs and prolong the retention time in vivo, reduce the drug toxicity, have targeting property and the like, and are common carrier materials in a drug controlled release system.

However, the preparation process is complex, and various reagents with high toxicity, such as sodium azide and the like, are used in the preparation, so that the purification is not facilitated to obtain the material with good biocompatibility for the human body. The Chinese patent with the application number of CN201410851243.6 discloses a drug sustained and controlled release type polyester drug-loaded nanoparticle and a preparation method thereof, unsaturated polyester is prepared from aliphatic diol and aliphatic diacid or anhydride, drug encapsulation is realized through radiation crosslinking, the prepared nanoparticle has the particle size of 50-1000 nm, the drug can be released at regular time and in a quantitative manner, and is embedded in the polyester nanoparticle so that the stability of the drug is high, but the drug-loaded nanoparticle has wide particle size distribution, is not beneficial to guiding target cells, and influences the quantitative release of the drug and the targeted therapy of the drug. The invention discloses a Chinese patent with application number CN200810051452.7, which discloses a biodegradable polyester drug-carrying microsphere of a peroxidase simulant and a preparation method thereof, and introduces the preparation of the drug-carrying microsphere with a coating material of polylactic acid or polylactic acid-glycolic acid, the used peroxidase simulant is a polyethylene glycol conjugate of heme hexapeptide or heme hexapeptide, the microsphere has the size of 10-35 mu m and uniform diameter distribution, but the transportation of the larger particle size (more than 200nm) of the microsphere in blood has certain difficulty and is not beneficial to keeping in vivo for a long time.

The other conditions were the same as in example 1, with the only difference that: controlling the volume ratio of anhydrous pyridine to thionyl chloride to be 10: 0.2, the molar ratio of the thionyl chloride to the ursolic acid is 6: 1, stirring the reaction solution at normal temperature for 1 hour to react, and failing to successfully prepare the ursolic acid. As shown in FIG. 8, this condition synthesized the product1H-NMR spectrogram shows that the ursolic acid has more impurities and does not have the characteristics of the ursolic acid.
The above detailed description is of the preferred embodiment for the convenience of understanding the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, that is, it is not intended that the present invention necessarily depends on the above embodiment for implementation. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that any modification of the present invention, equivalent substitutions of selected materials and additions of auxiliary components, selection of specific modes and the like, which are within the scope and disclosure of the present invention, are contemplated by the present invention.
