Description

Curcumin active drug-loaded liposome and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of liposome drug delivery, in particular to curcumin active drug-loaded liposome and a preparation method thereof.
Background
Curcumin (Curcumin, cur) is a chemical component extracted from rhizomes of some plants in Zingiberaceae and Araceae, is a diketone compound, is orange yellow crystalline powder, slightly bitter in taste, insoluble in water, soluble in ethanol, and soluble in DMSO, DMF, PEG400, etc. A large number of researches prove that the curcumin has a plurality of important biological effects including anti-inflammatory, anticoagulation, antioxidation, antiangiogenesis and antitumor activities, the effects of promoting wound healing, reducing blood fat, preventing and treating cardiovascular diseases and nervous system degenerative diseases and the like, and is used for treating liver diseases, digestive systems, infections, rheumatoid arthritis and the like. Research shows that the composition can prevent the occurrence of chemically and radioactively induced skin cancer, liver cancer, stomach cancer, prostatic cancer, colon cancer, breast cancer and the like of rats, can inhibit the growth, invasion and metastasis of tumors, and has the effect of enhancing the treatment effect of radiotherapy and chemotherapy. However, curcumin cannot be administered by intravenous injection due to its unstable structure and poor water solubility, and has extremely poor bioavailability due to its rapid in vivo metabolism and extremely short half-life when administered orally. Therefore, there is a need to develop curcumin formulations and suitable drug delivery systems to ameliorate the current dilemma.
Liposome (liposome) is a drug carrier with a phospholipid bilayer structure, and is widely researched and applied because the liposome can be used for coating hydrophobic drugs and loading water-soluble drugs. Generally, poorly soluble drugs are passively loaded into liposomal phospholipid bilayers to improve drug solubility and bioavailability. Curcumin is difficult to realize active drug loading due to the extremely low water solubility, and curcumin is usually prepared into a liposome preparation in a passive drug loading manner in the existing research. The passive drug-loaded liposome has the defects of low entrapment rate and drug-loading rate, poor stability and the like; and after the curcumin is loaded by the nano-carrier, the cell activity of the drug-loaded preparation is reduced, so that the drug effect in animals is general.

Because the structure of curcumin has a diketone structure, the structure can be complexed with metal ions to form a stable insoluble complex. Therefore, the invention takes metal ions as an internal water phase, and prepares the liposome with transmembrane metal ion gradient to actively load curcumin. The research unexpectedly finds that the prepared curcumin liposome has stronger capability of inducing the generation of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) in tumor cells compared with curcumin, thereby generating stronger cell activity; and the lipid carrier is used as a microreactor with a stable structure, so that the effective delivery of the curcumin-metal ion compound is realized, the tumor accumulation of the medicine is improved, and a better tumor inhibition effect is generated.

The curcumin liposome of claim 1, wherein the phospholipid is one or more selected from the group consisting of egg yolk lecithin, hydrogenated soybean lecithin, distearoyl phosphatidylcholine, dioleoyl lecithin, dimyristoyl lecithin, 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl lecithin, dipalmitoyl lecithin, distearoyl phosphatidylethanolamine, dioleoyl phosphatidylethanolamine, 1, 2-palmitoyl phosphatidylglycerol, distearoyl phosphatidylethanolamine-polyethylene glycol 2000, and DSPE-PEG 2000.
3. The curcumin actively loaded liposome as claimed in claim 1 or 2, wherein the curcumin liposome is of petal-shaped structure.
4. The preparation method of curcumin actively loaded liposome as claimed in claim 1, wherein,
(1) Preparation of large unilamellar liposomes
Weighing phospholipid and cholesterol in a prescription amount, dissolving the phospholipid and the cholesterol in an organic solvent, fully removing the organic solvent to form a phospholipid membrane, adding an inner aqueous phase metal ion salt solution for hydration until the phospholipid membrane completely falls off, and reducing the particle size of the liposome in an extrusion or probe ultrasonic mode to change the liposome into a large single-chamber liposome with uniform particle size;
(2) Establishment of a gradient of metal ions across a membrane
Fully exchanging the liposome obtained in the step (1) with an external aqueous phase buffer solution containing disodium ethylene diamine tetraacetate to fully remove external metal ions of the liposome, and then fully exchanging with a solution containing sodium chloride or sucrose and HEPES to obtain a blank liposome;
(3) Drug loading
Adding the concentrated curcumin solution into the liposome solution obtained in the step (2) for incubation, terminating the drug loading process after a certain time, and storing.
5. A curcumin liposome according to any one of claims 1 to 3, for use in the preparation of a medicament having the ability to induce the production of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS).
6. A curcumin liposome as claimed in any one of claims 1-3, for use in the preparation of an antitumor agent.
7. A curcumin liposome as claimed in any one of claims 1-3, for use in the preparation of a medicament for the treatment of breast cancer, prostate cancer, pancreatic cancer, melanoma.
