Description

Amino acid self-assembly nano-carrier delivery system for targeting activation of CD44 molecule, preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of targeted drug delivery, and particularly relates to an amino acid self-assembly nano-carrier delivery system for targeted activation of CD44 molecules, and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
At present, acute cardiovascular events mainly including acute myocardial infarction and sudden cardiac death become the first killers endangering human health. Statistically, about 2 million people die worldwide each year from acute cardiovascular events. In china, the situation is also not optimistic, and more than 70 million people die each year from acute myocardial infarction and sudden cardiac death, which has become one of the most important diseases seriously threatening the health of residents in China. Studies have shown that most acute myocardial infarction and sudden cardiac death are caused by atherosclerotic plaques. Since the last 70 s, the development process and mechanism of Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) and cerebral apoplexy caused by chronic atherosclerotic plaques have been explored.
In 1989, Muller and its team proposed the concept of "vulnerable plaques," which were thought to be the root cause of most acute cardiovascular events. Vulnerable plaque (also known as "unstable plaque") refers to atherosclerotic plaque that has a propensity to thrombus formation or is highly likely to rapidly progress into "plaque of offenders," and includes primarily ruptured plaque, erosive plaque, and partially calcified nodular lesions. A large number of studies indicate that most of acute myocardial infarction and cerebral apoplexy are caused by secondary thrombosis due to rupture of vulnerable plaques with mild and moderate stenosis. Naghavi and his team, etc. give histological definitions and criteria for vulnerable plaques. The main criteria include active inflammation, thin fibrous cap and large lipid core, endothelial denudation with surface platelet aggregation, fissuring or damaging plaque and severe stenosis. Secondary criteria included surface calcified plaques, yellow shiny plaques, intraplaque hemorrhage and positive remodeling. Therefore, early intervention is critical for vulnerable plaque. However, since the degree of stenosis of blood vessels due to vulnerable plaque is not high in general, many patients do not have precursor symptoms, and early diagnosis is difficult in clinic, so that the risk is extremely high. Therefore, how to identify and diagnose vulnerable plaque as early as possible and perform effective intervention becomes an urgent problem to be solved in preventing and treating acute myocardial infarction.
The techniques commonly used for vulnerable plaque diagnosis at present mainly include coronary angiography, intravascular ultrasound (IVUS), laser coherence tomography (OCT), etc., but these techniques are invasive examinations, and the diagnostic resolution and accuracy are not high, and these diagnostic techniques are expensive, and also limit the clinical popularization to some extent. Therefore, there is an urgent need for noninvasive diagnostic techniques and formulations for vulnerable plaques.
In addition, current methods of treating vulnerable plaques are primarily systemic administration, such as oral statins, aspirin, Matrix Metalloproteinase (MMPs) inhibitors, and/or fibrates, and the like. These drugs act to stabilize the plaque by regulating systemic blood lipids, fighting against inflammation, inhibiting protease and platelet production, etc., to reduce lipid in the plaque, improve vascular remodeling, etc. However, the therapeutic efficacy of current drugs used to treat vulnerable plaques is not ideal for clinical use. For example, the bioavailability of statins commonly used in clinical settings is low when administered orally, e.g., simvastatin is < 5%, atorvastatin is about 12%, and rosuvastatin is about 20%. Animal experiments also demonstrate that increasing the statin dose above 1mg/kg acts to increase the fibrous cap thickness and reduce plaque volume, which creates bottlenecks in the stability of oral statin administration and the effectiveness of reversing the plaque. Clinical trials have also confirmed that oral statin therapy for vulnerable plaques requires intensive high doses to have the effect of stabilizing vulnerable plaques, while systemic high dose statin therapy also risks an increased incidence of serious side effects (e.g. liver dysfunction, rhabdomyolysis, type II diabetes, etc.).
For the existing systemic administration, only a few effective components of the medicine can actually act on the pathological part after entering the body. This is the root cause of the drug effect restriction and the toxic and side effects. The targeted drug delivery system refers to a drug delivery system with targeted drug delivery capability. After being administered by a certain route, the drug contained in the targeting drug delivery system can be specifically enriched at the target site through the carrier with the targeting probe. The targeted drug delivery system can target the drug at a specific lesion site and release the effective ingredients at the target lesion site. Therefore, the targeted drug delivery system can enable the drug to form relatively high concentration at the target lesion site and reduce the dosage in blood circulation, thereby improving the drug effect, inhibiting toxic and side effects and reducing the damage to normal tissues and cells.
Currently, the nanocarriers commonly used in targeted drug delivery systems are liposomes. Although the liposome has the advantages of improving the drug effect and reducing the toxic and side effects of the drug, the liposome has poor in vivo stability, so that the circulation time is insufficient, and the improvement on the bioavailability of the drug is limited finally. In addition, the liposome has insufficient in vitro stability, phospholipid is easy to oxidize and hydrolyze during storage, and liposome vesicles are easy to aggregate and fuse with each other, so that the medicine encapsulated in the liposome vesicles is easy to leak. This has limited the development of targeted drug delivery systems to some extent.
In addition, in the field of diagnosis and treatment of vulnerable plaque, there are also some techniques for diagnosing vulnerable plaque by modifying nanocarriers with targeting ligands. However, a major problem with such targeting probes targeting vulnerable plaques in clinical practice is the insufficient specificity of the targeting site of these formulations. For example, the targeting site for such agents is mostly macrophage selective, but the targeting specificity of the probe is less than ideal since macrophages may be present throughout the body. Thus, a difficulty in the development of targeted formulations that target vulnerable plaques is finding a target in the cells within the vulnerable plaque with significant targeting specificity.
CD44 is a class of adhesion molecules that are widely distributed on the surface of lymphocytes, monocytes, endothelial cells, and the like. The primary ligand of the CD44 molecule is hyaluronic acid (abbreviated as "HA"). Based on the activation state of the expressing cells, CD44 can be classified into a relatively quiescent state (unable to bind HA), an induced activation state (able to bind HA after activation), and a structurally active state (able to bind HA without activation), whereas most normal cell surface CD44 is in a relatively quiescent state and thus unable to bind HA.
Numerous studies have followed to indicate that CD44 is not an ideal target with significant targeting specificity. This is because CD44 is widely distributed in the human body, especially on the surface of organs rich in reticuloendothelial mass. Therefore, the following problems are encountered in the development of a targeted drug delivery system targeting CD 44: such targeted drug delivery systems do not present specific targeting properties if the affinity of CD44 on the surface of the target cells to HA is insufficient to provide significant specificity.
Therefore, finding a specific target site existing at a vulnerable plaque part and a targeted drug delivery system suitable for targeting the vulnerable plaque, thereby developing a targeted drug delivery system capable of specifically targeting the vulnerable plaque and simultaneously realizing stable and sustained release of a drug, has become an urgent technical problem in the medical field.
To date, there HAs been no report on the expression state of CD44 on the surface of macrophages, monocytes, endothelial cells, lymphocytes and smooth muscle cells, which are mainly present within vulnerable plaque, and its affinity for HA, nor is there any prior art on designing a targeted drug delivery system capable of achieving stable sustained release of a drug for diagnosing or treating vulnerable plaque or a disease associated with vulnerable plaque using the interaction of HA and CD44 and the specific microenvironment of vulnerable plaque.
The amino acid or short peptide after chemical modification can be self-assembled into ordered spherical, vesicular and hollow tubular nano-structures through weak interaction between molecules under certain solution conditions, and the structures are maintained through pi-pi stacking effect generated by hydrogen bonds, benzene ring structures and amido bonds in molecules. The nano-drug carrier has the characteristics of simple preparation, obvious effect, low cytotoxicity and the like, can be used as a nano-drug carrier, but has the defects of poor stability, easy degradation and excessively fast clearance time in vivo, so that the continuity of the drug delivery time is hindered, and a scheme for solving the problems is a key for further exerting the drug delivery capacity of the amino acid or short peptide nano-carrier.

Hyaluronic Acid (HA) and Selectin (SP) are ligands of CD44 and can play a role in targeting vulnerable plaques, rosuvastatin (R) and atorvastatin (At) have a plaque reversing effect, self-peptide (SEP) can increase local penetration and aggregation of a medicament, cell-penetrating peptide (Tat) can increase local penetration and aggregation of the medicament, PEG is modified on the surface of a carrier, a long-circulating effect can be achieved, and the half-life period of the medicament is prolonged. miRNA-33a is capable of increasing cholesterol efflux. The purpose of this example is to demonstrate the in vivo therapeutic effect of Fmoc-Lys (R) -HA, Fmoc-Lys (R) -SP/PEG, Fmoc-Arg (R) -HA/PEG, Fmoc-Arg (At) -SEP/PEG, Fmoc-Arg (At/miRNA-33) -IM7 vector delivery system described in this invention on arterial vulnerable plaque.
The experimental method comprises the following steps:
(1) physiological saline solutions of free rosuvastatin and atorvastatin were prepared and therapeutic agent-loaded amino acid self-assembled nano delivery systems were prepared using the methods described in examples 1-5 above.
(2) Establishment of ApoE-/-mouse arterial vulnerable plaque model:
SPF-grade ApoE-/-mice (42, 5-6 weeks old, 20. + -.1 g body weight) were taken as experimental animals. After feeding mice with an adaptive high-fat diet (10% fat (w/w), 2% cholesterol (w/w), 0.5% sodium cholate (w/w), and the remainder being a common feed for mice) for 4 weeks, 1% sodium pentobarbital (formulated by adding 1mg sodium pentobarbital to 100ml of physiological saline) was intraperitoneally administered for anesthesia at a dose of 40 mg/kg. Then, the mice were fixed on a surgical plate in a supine position, sterilized with 75% (v/v) alcohol centering on the neck, the skin of the neck was cut off longitudinally, the anterior cervical gland was separated bluntly, and the pulsating left common carotid artery was observed on the left side of the trachea. Carefully separating the common carotid artery to the bifurcation, sleeving a silicone tube with the length of 2.5mm and the inner diameter of 0.3mm on the periphery of the left common carotid artery, and narrowing and fixing the proximal section and the distal section of the sleeve by thin silk threads. Local constriction causes proximal blood flow turbulence, increased shear forces, and resultant intimal damage. The carotid artery was repositioned and the anterior cervical skin was sutured intermittently. All manipulations were performed under a 10-fold visual microscope. And after the mouse wakes up after the operation, putting the mouse back into the cage, maintaining the ambient temperature at 20-25 ℃, and keeping the light on and off for 12 hours respectively. Intraperitoneal injections of Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (1mg/kg in 0.2ml phosphate buffered saline, Sigma, USA) were initiated at week 4 post-surgery, 2 times per week for 10 weeks, inducing chronic inflammation. Mice were placed into 50ml syringes (with sufficient air holes reserved) for 8 weeks post-surgery to cause restrictive mental stress, 6 hours/day, 5 days per week, for 6 weeks. The mouse atherosclerotic vulnerable plaque model was modeled after 14 weeks postoperatively.
(3) Grouping and treating experimental animals:
experimental animals were randomly divided into the following groups of 6 animals each:
vulnerable plaque model control group: the group of animals did not undergo any therapeutic treatment;
rosuvastatin intravenous injection group: intravenous administration was carried out at a dose of 0.66mg rosuvastatin/kg body weight;
atorvastatin intravenous group: intravenous administration at a dose of 1.2mg atorvastatin/kg body weight;
Fmoc-Lys (R) -group HA: intravenous administration was carried out at a dose of 0.66mg rosuvastatin/kg body weight;
Fmoc-Lys (R) -SP/PEG set: intravenous administration was carried out at a dose of 0.66mg rosuvastatin/kg body weight;
Fmoc-Arg (R) -HA/PEG set: treatment was carried out by intravenous administration at a dose of 0.66mg rosuvastatin/kg body weight.
Fmoc-Arg (at) -SEP/PEG set: intravenous administration at a dose of 1.2mg atorvastatin/kg body weight;
Fmoc-Arg (At/miRNA) -IM7 set: the treatment was administered intravenously at a dose of 1.2mg atorvastatin/kg body weight.
Treatment of the treatment groups was performed 1 time every other day for a total of 5 times, except for the vulnerable plaque model control group. For each group of animals, carotid MRI scans were performed before and after treatment to detect plaque and luminal area, and the percent plaque progression was calculated.
Percent plaque progression ═ (plaque area after treatment-plaque area before treatment)/luminal area.
The experimental results are as follows:
FIG. 22 shows the in vivo therapeutic effect of Fmoc-Lys (R) -HA, Fmoc-Lys (R) -SP/PEG, Fmoc-Arg (R) -HA/PEG, Fmoc-Arg (At) -SEP/PEG, Fmoc-Arg (At/miRNA-33) -IM7 vector delivery systems described herein on arterial vulnerable plaque. As shown, during the course of high-fat diet feeding (10 days), atherosclerosis progressed by 32.9% in the control group (not given any treatment); the treatment with rosuvastatin can delay the development of plaque, but the development is 30.1%; atorvastatin intravenous injection also delayed plaque progression, but also progressed by 31.7%; while targeted nano drug-loaded treatment significantly suppressed plaque progression and even showed reversal and regression of plaque volume, the Fmoc-lys (r) -HA group eliminated plaque by 8.27%, the Fmoc-lys (r) -SP/PEG group eliminated plaque by 12.21%, the Fmoc-Arg (r) -HA/PEG group eliminated plaque by 11%, the Fmoc-Arg (At) -SEP/PEG group eliminated plaque by 6.23%, and the Fmoc-Arg (At/miRNA-33) -IM7 group eliminated plaque by 12.49%.
Taken together, for arterial vulnerable plaques in mice, neither free rosuvastatin nor atorvastatin exhibited the effect of reversing vulnerable plaques. However, when statin is loaded in the nano delivery system of the present invention, the therapeutic effect on vulnerable plaque is significantly improved, and the therapeutic effect on plaque reduction is achieved, and the nano system with functional modification has better effect.
Experimental example 3 Effect of Fmoc-Lys (AuNP/At) -OPN/PEG delivery System of the present invention on arterial vulnerable plaque In vivo experiment (CT tracing and treatment dual function)
Osteopontin (OPN) is a ligand of CD44 and can act to target vulnerable plaques, atorvastatin (At) has the effect of reversing plaques, and nanogold (AuNP) is a CT tracer. The purpose of this example is to verify the in vivo tracking and therapeutic effect of the nano delivery system loaded with CT tracer and atorvastatin on vulnerable plaque of artery.
(1) A physiological saline solution of free atorvastatin was prepared and a self-assembled nano delivery system of amino acids loaded with CT tracer and therapeutic agent was prepared using the method described in example 6 above.
(2)ApoE-/-The method for establishing the mouse artery vulnerable plaque model is the same as the experimental example 2.

Fmoc-Lys (DPLA) -OPN/PEG set: iopromide is administered in an amount of 0.1mg/kg body weight;
Fmoc-Lys (DKSC) -OPN/PEG set; the administration dose of iodixanol is 0.1mg/kg body weight;
Fmoc-Lys (DFC) -OPN/PEG set: the dosage of the iodofluoroalcohol to be administered is 0.1mg/kg body weight.
Injecting corresponding tracer agents into each experimental group through tail veins, carrying out CT imaging before administration and 2h after administration, and observing the identification condition of the atherosclerosis vulnerable plaques of each group of animals.
(4) Grouping and treating experimental animals:
experimental animals were randomly divided into the following groups of 6 animals each:
vulnerable plaque model control group: the group of animals did not undergo any therapeutic treatment;
atorvastatin gavage group: performing gavage treatment at a dose of 20mg atorvastatin per kg body weight;
atorvastatin intravenous group: intravenous administration at a dose of 1.2mg atorvastatin/kg body weight;
Fmoc-Lys (AuNP/At) -OPN/PEG set: the treatment was administered intravenously at a dose of 1.2mg atorvastatin/kg body weight.
Treatment of the treatment groups was performed 1 time every other day for a total of 5 times, except for the vulnerable plaque model control group. For each group of animals, carotid MRI scans were performed before and after treatment to detect plaque and luminal area, and the percent plaque progression was calculated.
Percent plaque progression ═ (plaque area after treatment-plaque area before treatment)/luminal area.
The experimental results are as follows:
figure 23 demonstrates the in vivo tracking effect of a tracer-loaded amino acid delivery system of the invention on arterial vulnerable plaque. As shown, the free gold nanoparticles showed some tracing effect for the vulnerable arterial plaque in mice. Compared with free nano gold particles, when nano gold, iopromide, iodixanol and iodofluoroalcohol are prepared in a targeted amino acid delivery system, the tracing effect of vulnerable plaques is remarkably improved. In conclusion, compared with free nano-gold particles, the amino acid delivery system with the surface modified with the targeting ligand can be used for drug delivery, so that the recognition effect of nano-gold on vulnerable arterial plaque can be remarkably improved, and a better tracing effect can be generated.
FIG. 24 shows the in vivo therapeutic effect of Fmoc-Lys (AuNP/At) -OPN/PEG system of the present invention on vulnerable plaque of arteries. As shown, during the course of high-fat diet feeding (10 days), atherosclerosis of the control group (not given any treatment) progressed by 23%; by adopting atorvastatin for intragastric administration, the progress of the plaque can be delayed, but the progress is also 21%; atorvastatin intravenous injection also delayed plaque progression, but also progressed by 21.5%; while targeted nano drug-loaded therapy significantly suppressed plaque progression, even reversal and regression of plaque volume occurred, Fmoc-Lys (AuNP/At) -OPN/PEG caused plaque regression by 7.2%.
In conclusion, for the arterial vulnerable plaque in the mouse, whether the administration is intragastric or intravenous, the free atorvastatin has a certain treatment effect, but the free atorvastatin cannot reverse the vulnerable plaque. However, when atorvastatin and nanogold are formulated in the nano delivery system, the diagnosis and treatment effects on vulnerable plaques are remarkably improved, and the early warning of high-risk patients and the treatment effect on plaque reduction are achieved.

experimental animals were randomly divided into the following groups of 6 animals each:
vulnerable plaque model control group: the group of animals did not undergo any therapeutic treatment;
Fmoc-Lys(Fe3O4DXMS) -HI44a/PEG set: intravenous administration treatment was performed at a dose of 0.1mg dexamethasone/kg body weight;

Experimental example 5 Effect of Fmoc-Lys (Asp/Clo) -Col/PEG delivery System of the present invention on arterial vulnerable plaque In vivo experiments of
Aspirin (Asp) and clopidogrel (Clo) are antiplatelet drugs, which can act to reduce platelet aggregation and reduce the mortality rate of cardiovascular events. The purpose of this example is to demonstrate the in vivo therapeutic effect of Fmoc-Lys (Asp/Clo) -Col/PEG vector delivery system described in this invention on arterial vulnerable plaque.
The experimental method comprises the following steps:
(1) physiological saline solutions of free aspirin and clopidogrel were prepared and the therapeutic agent-loaded amino acid self-assembled nano-delivery system was prepared using the method described in example 8 above.
(2) Establishment of ApoE-/-mouse arterial vulnerable plaque rupture model: after feeding for 30 weeks with high fat diet, atherosclerotic plaque is formed in systemic artery of ApoE-/-mice, and vulnerable plaque is ruptured by snake venom induction to form acute coronary syndrome.
(3) Grouping and treating experimental animals:
experimental animals were randomly divided into the following groups of 10 animals each:
plaque rupture model control group: the group of animals did not undergo any therapeutic treatment;
aspirin and clopidogrel gavage group: performing gavage administration treatment at a dosage of 100mg aspirin/kg body weight and 75mg clopidogrel/kg body weight;
Fmoc-Lys (Asp/Clo) -Col/PEG set: the treatment of intravenous administration was carried out at a dose of 10mg aspirin/kg body weight and 7.5mg clopidogrel/kg body weight;
treatment of the treatment groups was performed 1 time every other day for a total of 5 times, except for the vulnerable plaque model control group. For each group of animals, the mortality of the mice was observed for 1 month, and the Bleeding Time (BT) of the mice was measured by tail-cutting.
The experimental results are as follows:
FIG. 27 shows the in vivo therapeutic effect of Fmoc-Lys (Asp/Clo) -Col/PEG system described herein on arterial vulnerable plaques. As shown, mice in the control group (not given any treatment) had a mortality rate of 33%; by adopting aspirin and clopidogrel for intragastric administration, the death rate can be reduced to 29 percent; Fmoc-Lys (Asp/Clo) -Col/PEG treatment was able to reduce mortality to 16%. From the bleeding time, the Fmoc-Lys (Asp/Clo) -Col/PEG group was not significantly prolonged, while the bleeding time of mice orally administered with aspirin and clopidogrel was significantly prolonged.
In summary, oral dual antiplatelet therapy can reduce mortality but prolong bleeding time and increase bleeding risk for vulnerable plaque-ruptured animals. The anti-platelet drug is loaded to the nano delivery system, so that the anti-platelet drug has better curative effect than oral drugs, and the bleeding risk is not increased.
