Description

Viscoelastic hydrogel and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of injectable hydrogel, in particular to viscoelastic hydrogel and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Articular cartilage defect is a common disease in clinic, and cartilage tissue is in an environment without blood vessels, nerves and lymphatic return, has limited self-repair capability, and is difficult to regenerate once being damaged.
The traditional treatment methods comprise autologous cell transplantation, microfracture, joint replacement and the like, wherein the application of the autologous cell transplantation method is greatly limited due to limited cell sources and easy damage or dysfunction of the material-taking parts; the cartilage formed by the micro-fracture scheme is fibrous, the normal cartilage tissue is composed of hyaline cartilage, the fibrous cartilage has poor mechanical property and cannot bear the mechanical load of joints, so that the repair capability is reduced; the traditional joint replacement surgery may cause secondary injury, has a large renovation risk and has unsatisfactory treatment effect.
Fortunately, tissue engineering provides a new direction for repairing cartilage defects, wherein scaffolds in the tissue engineering comprise three elements, namely cells, scaffolds and regulatory factors, researchers have proved that the scaffolds have great potential in repairing and replacing damaged or necrotic tissues and organs of human bodies, however, the implantation of the scaffolds usually requires open surgery, which results in large wound area and may cause serious infection and clinical surgical complications clinically, thereby reducing the repairing effect.
With the development of clinical minimally invasive arthroscopic surgery and cell therapy, many researchers have proposed tissue repair by injecting cells into the defect site with a syringe, the cells being injected as a cell suspension in a buffer. However, during the injection process, the cells are subjected to different levels of shear stress, pressure, etc. at different locations of the injector, which can lead to massive cell death. In addition, a small number of cells that can be precisely localized to the defect are also in a free state and are likely to be washed away by the synovial fluid, thereby reducing the therapeutic effect.
Therefore, cell therapy has limited use in minimally invasive cartilage regeneration due to the lack of a suitable injection medium.

1. Infrared detection
Example 1 a-CNC/collagen hydrogel was prepared by mixing a same volume of collagen with an a-CNC solution at 37 ℃ and neutral pH for 30 seconds, and the a-CNC, CNC and a-CNC/collagen hydrogel prepared according to the present invention were examined by infrared spectroscopy, and the results are shown in fig. 1.
As shown in FIG. 1, a-CNC at 1720cm compared to CNC-1A new absorption peak appears on the left and right, which is the characteristic peak of aldehyde group. 1646cm appears in the collagen hydrogel-1The characteristic absorption peak at (a), which is the stretching vibration peak of the carboxylic acid carbonyl group. The alpha-CNC/collagen spectrum was 1652cm compared to pure collagen-1There is a new peak around, and the stretching vibration peak of carboxylic acid carbonyl group in collagen disappears, which confirms that collagen is successfully cross-linked with a-CNC to form Schiff base bond (imine bond), indicating that CNC has been successfully modified to a-CNC, and a-CNC/collagen hydrogel is formed.
2. Scanning electron microscope
And (3) respectively detecting the a-CNC/collagen hydrogel and the CNC/collagen hydrogel by using a scanning electron microscope, wherein the result is shown in figure 2, SEM images show the cross sections of the two hydrogels, and after freeze-drying, the a-CNC/collagen hydrogel and the CNC/collagen hydrogel both obtain a porous structure. Both gels had distributed pores, demonstrating the cross-linking phenomenon of both gels. In addition, compared to a-CNC/collagen hydrogel, CNC/collagen hydrogels are larger in pores, looser in structure, and lower in crosslink density. Cross-sectional images of a-CNC/collagen hydrogel and CNC/collagen hydrogel show interconnected porous scaffolds to facilitate moisture absorption.
3. Compression test
The composite hydrogel was formed into a cylindrical shape having a height of 3.00mm and a diameter of 10.00mm, and the prepared sample (n-3) was immersed in PBS for 48 hours to maintain the hydrogel in an equilibrium swollen state to accommodate a mechanical compression test. The elastic modulus of the hydrogels was characterized using a dynamic mechanical analyzer (DMA, TA-Q800, USA) in compression mode at room temperature. The test parameters were set to an amplitude of 40mm, a pretension of 0.002N, a fixed frequency of 1Hz, and a force trace of 105%.
The results of the test are shown in fig. 3, and it is seen from the stress-strain curve in fig. 3 that the strain of both hydrogels is proportional to the compressive stress. After fitting the linear part of the stress-strain curve, the slope at 5% strain on the curve was taken as the modulus of elasticity. The elastic modulus of the calculated a-CNC/collagen hydrogel is larger than that of the CNC/collagen hydrogel, about 0.5kPa and 0.4kPa respectively, and the elastic modulus data of the two hydrogels have significant difference.
4. Rheology experiments
After both hydrogels were prepared and allowed to equilibrate at 37 ℃ for 10 minutes, the two hydrogels were first subjected to strain and sweep experiments using rheometer MCR302 to characterize the stress relaxation and shear thinning properties of the CNC/collagen hydrogel and the a-CNC/collagen hydrogel at 37 ℃.
The frequency sweep experiment was performed at a frequency of 1 to 100Hz and a constant strain of 1%. Strain scans were performed at 1Hz with strain ranging from 0.01% to 100%. The results show that at 1% strain and 1Hz frequency, the hydrogels exhibit linear viscoelastic responses, and these conditions are used for rheological characterization of the hydrogels.
Selecting a template for stress relaxation, setting a constant value of shear strain to be 1%, and carrying out a stress relaxation experiment at 37 ℃ to respectively determine stress relaxation curves and stress relaxation times of the two hydrogels.
Selecting template 'viscosity and flow curve', setting temperature at 37 deg.C and shear rate at 0.01-100s-1The shear-thinning curves of the two were determined separately.
The test results are shown in FIG. 4, and in the frequency sweep mode, we take the average value of the storage modulus at the frequency of 1Hz, 5Hz, and 10Hz as the storage modulus of the hydrogel at the frequency. As can be seen from fig. 4(a), the storage modulus of the a-CNC/collagen hydrogel is significantly greater than that of the CNC/collagen hydrogel; fig. 4(B) shows that the a-CNC/collagen hydrogel has better shear thinning ability than the CNC/collagen hydrogel, which indicates that the a-CNC/collagen hydrogel has better injectability.
The time point corresponding to the half of the original decrease in stress on the stress relaxation curve is taken as the stress relaxation time, and the result is shown in fig. 4(C), where the a-CNC/collagen hydrogel has a shorter stress relaxation time, which indicates that the a-CNC/collagen hydrogel has a stronger stress relaxation capacity, and indicates that the a-CNC/collagen hydrogel has good viscoelasticity and can better protect cells.
5. Injection performance
The two hydrogels were placed into syringes for injection experiments, as shown in fig. 5, CNC/collagen hydrogel immediately formed many continuous micro-drop hydrogels, and were uniformly dispersed in PBS solution at 37 ℃, the platform blue dye in the hydrogel did not escape, and the PBS solution was clear. In contrast to the control, the a-CNC/collagen hydrogel stably extruded into PBS solution had no continuous breaks and no internal trypan blue dye exuded, indicating that the a-CNC/collagen hydrogel had good payload retention and better injectability. Furthermore, as shown in fig. 5, the two hydrogels exhibited different stabilities: the CNC/collagen hydrogel in the glass bottle after strong vibration and inversion is divided into a plurality of fragments, dispersed and suspended in the PBS solution, and the PBS solution of the a-CNC/collagen hydrogel has few fragments and better stability, which indicates that the a-CNC/collagen hydrogel has good injectability and stability and can better protect the contents.
6. Immediate detection of live and dead after loaded cell injection
The rabbit-derived mesenchymal stem cells are adopted for immediate live-dead detection after cell loading injection, a-CNC suspension and CNC suspension with the same concentration are respectively mixed with collagen solution and cell suspension to construct two cell-carried hydrogel solutions, the cell density of the two solutions is 500000 cells/mL, then the hydrogel is sucked by a syringe with a needle (the size of the needle is 26gauge), and then the hydrogel is injected into a silica gel mold to form a disc with the diameter of 1cm and the height of 3 mm. Immediately after the cell-filled hydrogel was injected and formed, MSCs attached to the complex hydrogel were stained with FDA/PI to identify live or dead cells. To each hydrogel disc, 2mL of assay solution was added and incubated at room temperature for 2 minutes, and then cells were imaged by Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy (CLSM) to check the survival status of MSCs.
The experimental results are shown in fig. 6, the mesenchymal stem cells showed good activity in both the a-CNC/collagen hydrogel and the CNC/collagen hydrogel, indicating that the hydrogel is not cytotoxic. In addition, as shown in fig. 6, the amount of dead cells in the CNC/collagen hydrogel is greater than that of the a-CNC/collagen hydrogel, which indicates that the a-CNC/collagen hydrogel can better protect cells during the injection process and improve the survival rate of the cells.
In conclusion, the a-CNC/collagen hydrogel has the advantages of large elastic modulus, stronger stress relaxation capacity, excellent viscoelasticity and high mechanical strength, can better protect loaded cells, enables the cells to show higher survival rate after injection, enables rod-shaped a-CNC to be directionally arranged in the extrusion process, further strengthens a polymer network, improves mechanical stability, and has good injectability, so that the a-CNC/collagen hydrogel can be used for preparing materials such as cell injection hydrogel, cell loading medium and the like.
