Description

Polydopamine hemoglobin-loaded micro-nano particle and preparation method and application thereof

Technical Field

The invention relates to the technical field of hemoglobin oxygen carrier blood substitutes, in particular to a polydopamine hemoglobin-loaded micro-nano particle and a preparation method and application thereof.

Background

Timely and effective blood transfusion is an important and common clinical treatment and cure means, and is widely used in the aspects of surgical operation, treatment of internal anemia, war wound treatment and the like. However, the blood has increasingly serious limitations of blood-borne disease transmission, difficult storage and cross matching before treatment, so that the blood which is in short supply is difficult to meet the increasing clinical requirement of blood transfusion, which causes the traditional blood transfusion treatment to face a significant challenge and provides an important opportunity for the research of blood substitutes.

The blood substitute realizes partial replacement of blood by simulating the structure and function of blood components, can be used as necessary supplement of clinical blood mainly due to the advantages of sufficient sources, convenient storage and transportation, no need of cross matching and the like, and can also become important logistics guarantee in military battles. Although the current technical level for preparing a true 'whole blood' substitute cannot be realized, blood component substitutes with certain functions, especially red blood cell substitutes with oxygen carrying/releasing functions, are the key points and difficulties of the current research in various countries. Hemoglobin is an oxygen carrying/releasing function in red blood cells, however, free hemoglobin easily permeates vascular endothelium, is combined with vasodilation factors, causes vasoconstriction, has the risk of glomerular filtration, and cannot be directly used for infusion. Therefore, the erythrocyte substitute with the Oxygen carrying/releasing function is mainly prepared by chemically modifying, polymerizing, crosslinking and the like the stroma-free Hemoglobin or wrapping the stroma-free Hemoglobin in a high-molecular microcapsule to enable the stroma-free Hemoglobin to simulate the Oxygen carrying/releasing capacity of the Hemoglobin in natural erythrocytes and be safely and effectively used for human bodies, and is also called Hemoglobin Oxygen Carriers (HBOCs). The research and development of hemoglobin oxygen carriers have subversive scientific significance for transfusion medicine and blood guarantee.

It can be seen that the hemoglobin oxygen carrier needs to have the following characteristics: 1) hemoglobin is widely available and readily available; 2) surface antigens of the red blood cells are removed, and cross matching is not needed during use; 3) long preservation time; 4) particle size is much smaller than that of natural red blood cells, and microcirculation oxygen supply can be improved through narrowing blood vessels.

The first work in developing hemoglobin-based oxygen carriers was to chemically modify and crosslink matrix-free hemoglobin, with chemically modified and crosslinked HBOCs representing the most species. Among them, HBOC-201 developed by Biopure corporation of America, which cross-linked bovine hemoglobin with glutaraldehyde, was marketed successively in south Africa and Russia, was the only HBOCs product successfully used in clinic so far, but further application thereof was limited due to more clinical side reactions.

In recent years, the template self-assembly technology has the advantages of simple process, high hemoglobin entrapment amount, controllable morphology and particle size and the like in the aspect of constructing hemoglobin oxygen carriers, and is widely concerned. Relevant studies have shown that: the microspheres formed by alternately assembling layers of glutaraldehyde and hemoglobin can obviously improve the content of hemoglobin in the microspheres, so that the concentration of the hemoglobin can reach 1.36g/cm³(Duan, L.; Yan, X.; Wang, A.; Jia, Y.; Li, J., high ply charged heparin spheres as promoting aromatic oxygen carriers. acs Nano2012,6, 6897-6904.); the hemoglobin-loaded micro-nano particles with the particle size of about 800nm can be prepared by selecting manganese carbonate as an adsorption template of hemoglobin, and the hemoglobin-loaded micro-nano particles can remarkably reduce the vasoactivity of the micro-nano particles so as to avoid side effects such as vasoconstriction and hypertension (Xiong, Y.; Liu, Z.; Georgieva, R.; Smuda, K.; Steffen, A.; Sendski, M.; Voigt, A.; Patzak, A.;

h, Nonsoconstric heparin derivatives as oxygenen carriers, acs Nano 2013,7,7454-61.); however, on the one hand, hemoglobin micro-nano particles prepared based on the template self-assembly technology still need to be cross-linked and assembled by forming Schiff base bonds between glutaraldehyde and hemoglobin (the microstructure is schematically shown in FIG. 16A (Yu C; Huang X; Qian D; Han F; Xu L; Tang Y; Bao N; Gu H, diagnosis and evaluation of hemoglobin-based polypeptide microcapsules as oxygen carriers, chemical Communications,2018,54,4136-4139.), and the round spheres in the figure represent hemoglobin, and the short distance between the round spheresThe stick represents Schiff base bonds, and thus the hemoglobin micro-nano particle is a hollow sphere with a reticular surface), and the Schiff base bonds between the hemoglobin micro-nano particle and the hemoglobin micro-nano particle are easy to break when the hemoglobin micro-nano particle is used, so that the chemical stability is insufficient, glutaraldehyde is free, and biotoxicity is easy to cause after infusion. Secondly, cell membranes lack on the surfaces of the micro-nano particles to serve as protective barriers, hemoglobin is exposed, and is easy to capture and identify by a reticuloendothelial system and difficult to stably exist in blood.

In addition, Mitragortri et al flexibly select PLGA (poly (lactic acid-co-glycolide)) or PS (polystyrene) microspheres as a preparation template, so that the prepared micro-nano particles are closer to the three-dimensional structure and deformation characteristics of erythrocytes, and are beneficial to passing narrow blood vessel parts and improving microcirculation. (Doshi, N.; Zahr, A.S.; Bhaskar, S.; Lahann, J.; Mitrapotri, S., Red blood cell-simulating synthetic biological components. proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America 2009,106, 21495-21499.). The micro-nano particles also have the defects.

It can be seen that the above lack of stability is an important reason for limiting further development of the template self-assembly type HBOCs. In addition, due to the lack of a reductase system contained in native red blood cells, hemoglobin undergoes increased autoxidation under off-physiological conditions, changes in conformation, and suffers from impaired oxygen-carrying capacity, i.e., hemoglobin is structurally and functionally unstable.

Detailed Description

Polydopamine is a novel functional polymer, and is widely applied to the research fields of biomedicine, material chemistry and the like due to good adhesion property and biocompatibility. At present, the polydopamine-based hemoglobin oxygen carrier is mainly formed by adhesion of polydopamine on the surface of a single hemoglobin molecule, the particle size of the polydopamine is too small, is only 6-8nm, and is likely to penetrate through vascular endothelium and combine with vasodilation factors in the blood circulation process, so that the polydopamine-based hemoglobin oxygen carrier is not suitable for large-dose infusion.

On the basis of a template self-assembly technology, manganese carbonate is selected as an adsorption template, Hemoglobin is immobilized on the manganese carbonate through coprecipitation of the Hemoglobin and the manganese carbonate to form primary particles, an adhesion layer is constructed on the surface of the primary particles by utilizing the adhesion characteristic of Polydopamine, the primary particles are completely wrapped in the adhesion layer by the adhesion layer, and finally the manganese carbonate adsorption template is removed to obtain Polydopamine-loaded (adhesion) Hemoglobin micro-nano particles (Hb-PDA MPs), wherein the microstructure of the micro-nano particles is shown in figure 16B, dots in the figure are Hemoglobin, and the outermost layer is the Polydopamine adhesion layer; therefore, the micro-nano particles are spherical, a plurality of hemoglobins are distributed in the whole sphere, and the outer surface of the sphere is provided with a polydopamine adhesion layer which wraps the plurality of hemoglobins in the sphere. The micro-nano particle can overcome the defect that the stability of the existing template self-assembly HBOCs is insufficient. In addition, the polydopamine adhesion layer can prevent the hemoglobin from directly contacting other components in blood, provide a protective barrier for the hemoglobin and reduce the generation of free hemoglobin. Meanwhile, the antioxidant property of polydopamine enables the polydopamine to be capable of eliminating oxygen free radicals, inhibiting the autoxidation process of hemoglobin and maintaining the oxygen carrying function of the hemoglobin. The process of modifying the substrate substance by the polydopamine is simple and mild, and the polyquinone groups in the molecules of the polydopamine enable the polydopamine to have high-efficiency free radical scavenging capacity. Polydopamine has good stability as a modifying carrier of hemoglobin, and the spectral characteristics of the micro-nano particles are not changed after the micro-nano particles are stored for 24 hours, so that the colloidal stability can be maintained for a long time.

The present invention will be described more specifically and further illustrated with reference to specific examples, which are by no means intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

Example (b): preparation of polydopamine hemoglobin-loaded micro-nano particles

The method comprises the following steps:

(1) 10ml of MnCl containing 0.1-0.3M is prepared₂And 2.4-12.0mg/ml hemoglobin, and rapidly adding 0.1-0.3M Na at 4 deg.C₂CO₃Stirring the solution until the reaction system is brick red and no precipitate is generated, generally for 5-10 min; mn²⁺Combined with hemoglobin and then with CO₃ ^2-Combined to form MnCO₃Precipitation with Mn²⁺Interaction of hemoglobin with Mn²⁺With CO₃ ^2-Is entrapped in MnCO₃In the middle, Hb-MnCO is formed₃(ii) MPs; centrifuging at 6000-10000g for 5-15min, discarding supernatant, and precipitating to obtain Hb-MnCO₃ MPs(I.e., primary particles).

(2) Adding a Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0 to 8.8) to the precipitate obtained in step (1) so that the pH of the reaction system is 8.0 to 8.8; then adding 1-10mg/mL of dopamine solution, wherein the adding ratio of dopamine to hemoglobin is 1: (1-5), continuing stirring; based on the characteristic absorption of polydopamine at 320nm, sampling from the reaction system every 30min, centrifuging at 6500g for 5min, discarding the precipitate, and measuring the absorption value A of the supernatant at 320nm with a spectrophotometer₃₂₀When A is₃₂₀When the change is not changed, the poly-dopamine is not consumed by the adhesion process, namely the adhesion of the poly-dopamine on the surface of the primary particles reaches saturation, and the reaction is stopped at the moment, generally for 2 to 6 hours. Dopamine introduced in the process can be rapidly self-polymerized on the surface of Hb-MnCO3 MPs to form polydopamine, and covalent oxidative polymerization and non-covalent self-assembly of the dopamine should be dominant in the polymerization process. Polydopamine adheres to the surface of the primary particles by intermolecular forces such as hydrogen bonding with hemoglobin.

(3) Centrifuging the reaction system of step (2) at 6000-10000g for 5-15min, discarding the supernatant, washing 3 times with PBS buffer (pH 7.4), and then washing with 20ml of 0.25M Na₂The EDTA (pH 7.4) solution was resuspended, and the resulting suspension was shaken for 30min to obtain a resuspension solution I.

(4) Centrifuging the heavy suspension I obtained in the step (3) according to the conditions of the step (3), discarding a supernatant, and washing the supernatant for 3 times by using a PBS (pH 7.4) buffer solution to obtain the polydopamine-loaded hemoglobin micro-nano particles (Hb-PDA MPs for short); then re-suspending with 4ml distilled water to obtain Hb-PDA MPs water re-suspension, and storing at 4 ℃ for later use.

A series of Hb-PDA MPs of examples were prepared according to the above procedure, with the preparation parameters shown in Table 1.

TABLE 1 preparation parameters of Hb-PDA MPs of inventive examples

Experiment one: method for measuring hemoglobin encapsulation efficiency in Hb-PDA MPs by coprecipitation method

In the determination of encapsulation efficiencyIn the experiment, the reaction solution obtained in the step (1) is centrifuged for 10min at 8000g, the supernatant is collected, and the Hb concentration (marked as C) in the supernatant is detected by adopting a trace hemoglobin kit (purchased from Nanjing bioengineering research institute)_tThe volume of the reaction supernatant is denoted V_t) Hb and MnCl in step (1)₂Hb concentration (denoted as C) in the liquid mixture₀Volume of the mixed stock solution is denoted as V₀) Encapsulation efficiency ═ C₀V₀-C_tV_t)/C₀V₀. The final volume of the Hb-PDA MPs aqueous resuspension in step (4) was recorded as V_fHemoglobin density in suspension (C)₀V₀-C_tV_t)/V_f. The results are shown in Table 2.

TABLE 2 measurement of hemoglobin encapsulation efficiency

Table 2 the results show that: Hb-PDA MPs, MnCO, were prepared from a Hb stock solution (i.e., the reaction system of example step (1)) at 2.4-12mg/ml₃The encapsulation efficiency of the template to Hb is between 36.6% and 85.6%, and the encapsulation efficiency is reduced along with the increase of Hb concentration. The Hb density in the Hb-PDA MPs suspension (i.e., the distilled water resuspension in example step (4)) was increased to 11.3 to 24.2mg/mL as the amount of Hb used in the reaction system of step (1) was increased, and the Hb content in MPs was further increased by increasing the Hb concentration in the preparation solution. As shown in Table 2, the hemoglobin density in the Hb-PDA MPs suspension increased with the increase of the initial concentration of hemoglobin in the preparation solution, but when the initial concentration of hemoglobin exceeded 7.2mg/mL, the initial concentration of hemoglobin continued to increase, and the increase of the hemoglobin density in the Hb-PDA MPs suspension was less significant, so that 7.2mg/mL was selected as the optimal preparation concentration in the present invention.

Experiment two: characterization of properties

Observing morphology characteristics of Hb-PDA MPs by using a scanning electron microscope and a transmission electron microscope, determining element composition of the Hb-PDA MPs by using an accessory X-ray energy dispersion spectrometer of the scanning electron microscope, and determining particle size distribution of the Hb-PDA MPs by using a laser particle sizerThe Zeta potential of Hb, Blank-PDA MPs, Hb-PDA MPs. Taking Hb-PDA MPs of example 3 as an example, the scanning electron microscope results are shown in FIG. 1, the transmission electron microscope results are shown in FIG. 2, the particle size distribution is shown in FIG. 3, the element composition is shown in Table 3, and the Zeta potential is shown in Table 4. Wherein Hb is the mixed solution containing hemoglobin in step (1); Blank-PDA MP is an unloaded polydopamine particle, i.e. Hb-free MnCl is selected for use in the co-precipitation step₂And Na₂CO₃As a preparation raw material, the other steps are the same as the preparation of the invention; Hb-PDA MPs are aqueous resuspension of Hb-PDA MPs obtained by resuspension after adding distilled water in step (4).

Sample name	Zeta potential (mV)
		Hb	-20.13±1.93
Blank-PDA MPs	-26.07±1.32
		Hb-PDA MPs	-22.07±0.26

FIGS. 1 and 2 show that Hb-PDA MPs are spherical, which indicates that the structure is not collapsed after the template is removed, and the particle size of the micro-nano particles in a dry state is about 400-600 nm. FIG. 3 shows that the average hydrated particle size of Hb-PDA MPs is 840.9 + -26.3 nm, and the particle size distribution is uniform and concentrated. Table 3 shows that the Mn content in Hb-PDA MPs is only 0.04%, indicating that the template has been sufficiently removed. The Hb-PDA MPs of the invention have negative charges on the surface, and the Zeta potential is-22.07 +/-0.26 mV, which is caused by deprotonation of a large amount of phenolic hydroxyl groups on the surface of polydopamine under neutral conditions. The negative surface charge of the Hb-PDA MPs is beneficial to reducing the interaction with other components in blood and stably existing in the blood.

Experiment three: chemical Structure characterization

Measuring ultraviolet-visible spectra of Hb, PDA and Hb-PDA MPs by using a spectrophotometer (bandwidth: 2 nm; wavelength range: 190-850 nm; sample cell specification: 1cm), wherein Hb is mixed solution containing hemoglobin in the step (1); PDA is polydopamine; Hb-PDA MPs are the polydopamine hemoglobin micro-nano particles obtained by adding distilled water and then re-suspending in the step (4). Hb, DA and Hb-MnCO determination by adopting X-ray photoelectron spectrometer₃MPs and Hb-MnCO₃Photoelectron spectroscopy of PDA MPs and analysis of the surface elemental composition, EDTA dissolution of M due to the strong chelating capacity of PDA molecules on metal elementsnCO₃May result in the binding of Mn to PDA²⁺Thus influencing the measurement result, Hb-MnCO is measured₃-surface element content of PDA MPs, i.e. Hb-PDA MPs; hb is a mixed solution containing hemoglobin in step (1); DA is a commercially available dopamine monomer (available from Sigma-Aldrich, USA); Hb-MnCO₃MPs are manganese carbonate hemoglobin-loaded micro-nano particles obtained by a coprecipitation method in the step (1); Hb-MnCO₃PDA MPs are polydopamine coated in step (3), but MnCO₃Hemoglobin-loaded micro-nano particles which are not removed from the template. Hb and Hb-MnCO determination by adopting X-ray photoelectron spectrometer₃MPs and Hb-MnCO₃Photoelectron spectroscopy (700-740eV) of PDA MPs, this interval being able to reflect the characteristic signals of the Fe element, which is a characteristic element of the haemoglobin subunit. The results are shown in fig. 4, fig. 5, fig. 6 and table 5, taking the preparation parameters of example 3 as an example.

TABLE 5 Hb, DA, Hb-MnCO₃MPs and Hb-MnCO₃Surface element content of PDA MPs

Element(s)	Hb/％	DA/％	Hb-MnCO3 MPs/％	Hb-MnCO3-PDA MPs/％
					C	61.19	71.15	46.48	58.70
N	18.45	10.08	16.36	20.09
					O	16.49	12.89	33.03	19.10
Fe	0.18	0	0.21	0
					Mn	0	0	2.77	0.22
N/O	1.12	0.78	0.50	1.05

FIG. 4 shows that Hb-PDA MPs retain the characteristic peak of oxyHb at 412nm, indicating that the process of preparation does not destroy the chemical structure of Hb, and Hb-PDA MPs have oxygen carrying capacity. As the PDA has stronger absorption at 500-700nm, the characteristic peaks of Hb at 540 and 575nm are covered, which indicates that Hb and PDA are effectively loaded, and the structural characteristics of the Hb and PDA are not damaged.

FIG. 5 and Table 5 show that Hb-MnCO is compared to the unpolymerized DA (dopamine)₃The surface of PDA MPs had both increased elements N and O, but the ratio of N/O increased from 0.78 to 1.05. Since a large number of phenolic hydroxyl groups are present on the molecular surfaces of Hb and PDA, it is presumed that the formation of the PDA layer is mainly based on a hydrogen bond formed by the action of the hydroxyl groups of both, and the amino group of PDA is exposed on the outer side of the PDA layer. FIG. 6 shows that the content of porphyrin Fe element is reduced from 0.18% to 0% after the PDA is coated on the surface of MPs, which indicates that the coating effect of PDA is more sufficient and the hemoglobin is not exposed.

FIG. 6 shows that Hb-MnCO₃No Fe element signal was detected on the surface of PDA MPs, indicating that the primary particles are sufficiently coated with PDA and the hemoglobin is not exposed.

Experiment four: evaluation of blood compatibility

HBOCs are administered in large doses and are involved in systemic blood circulation, and therefore their hemocompatibility is not negligible. 200 mul of Hb-PDA MPs with the concentrations of 200 mug/mL, 400 mug/mL and 600 mug/mL respectively are uniformly mixed with 1mL of erythrocyte suspension containing 2% (volume percentage) of erythrocytes (2% rat erythrocytes + 98% physiological saline) to obtain a mixed solution, the mixed solution is incubated for 1h at 37 ℃, the mixed solution is centrifuged at 3000rpm for 10min, the precipitate is discarded, and the supernatant is used as an experimental group. 1mL of a suspension of erythrocytes containing 2% (by volume) of erythrocytes was mixed uniformly with 200. mu.L of physiological saline, and the supernatant obtained in the same manner as above was used as a negative control group, and 1mL of a suspension of erythrocytes containing 2% (by volume) of erythrocytes was mixed uniformly with 200. mu.L of distilled water, and the supernatant obtained in the same manner as above was used as a positive control group. Measuring absorbance at 545nm of the supernatant obtained from the experimental group, the negative control group and the positive control group respectively, and recording as D_t、D_-、D₊When the Hemolysis Ratio is equal to (D)_t-D_-)/(D₊-D_-). The results are shown in FIG. 7, using the Hb-PDA MPs obtained in example 3 as an example.

The blood coagulation time is an important index reflecting the blood coagulation function of the body. Among them, the Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (APTT) mainly reflects the condition of the intrinsic coagulation system, the Prothrombin Time (PT) mainly reflects the condition of the extrinsic coagulation system, and the Thrombin Time (TT) mainly reflects the time for converting fibrinogen into fibrin. 200 mu.L of 1.6mg/ml Hb-PDA MPs aqueous suspension and 1ml of rat Platelet-Poor Plasma (PPP) are respectively mixed and incubated for 1h, the PPP without adding MPs is used as a control group, and the coagulation indexes PT, APTT and TT of each group are measured and are subjected to statistical analysis. The results are shown in FIG. 8.

Viscosity is an important index reflecting the rheological properties of blood, and changes in blood viscosity will affect the flow rate and quantity of blood and the normal perfusion of tissues and organs. Mixing Hb-PDA MPs and whole blood in a volume ratio of 3: 7, incubated at 37 ℃ for 1h and measured at a shear rate of 1S^-1、10S^-1、100S^-1The influence of Hb-PDA MPs on the rheological characteristics of whole blood was examined by using whole blood, a mixed solution of whole blood and normal saline (normal saline and whole blood mixed at a volume ratio of 3: 7) as a negative control group and a positive control group, respectively. The results are shown in FIG. 9.

FIG. 7 shows that the haemolysis rate of 200, 400 and 600. mu.g/ml Hb-PDA MPs is not more than 5% after acting on the erythrocyte suspension, which indicates that the Hb-PDA MPs do not cause erythrocyte hemolysis.

FIG. 8 shows that there was a slight change in the APTT and TT values of the PPP + Hb-PDA MPs group compared to the control group (PPP without Hb-PDA MPs added), but there was no statistical difference (P > 0.05). The result shows that the Hb-PDA MPs can not cause abnormal change of the blood coagulation time after entering the blood and have no influence on the blood coagulation function.

FIG. 9 shows that the viscosity is reduced at each shear rate for the whole blood + Hb-PDA MPs system compared to whole blood at the same shear rate, although the rheological properties of whole blood are shown to be affected after the Hb-PDA MPs are applied to whole blood. However, the viscosity-shear rate curve of the whole blood + Hb-PDA MPs system is closer to that of the whole blood + physiological saline group, which indicates that the influence degree of the whole blood viscosity of the Hb-PDA MPs does not exceed the physiological saline, so that the abnormal change of the whole blood viscosity cannot be caused excessively after the infusion.

Experiment five: stability survey

Placing Hb-PDA MPs in water at 4 deg.CThe mixture is placed for two weeks, and the hydrated particle size distribution is measured by a laser particle sizer every two days. Mixing Hb-PDA MPs with Hb-MnCO₃The MPs suspension (manganese carbonate hemoglobin-loaded micro-nano particles obtained by a coprecipitation method in the step (1)) is stored at 4 ℃ for 42 days, and Hb leakage is measured on days 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 14, 18, 22, 26, 30, 36 and 42 respectively. The Hb leakage amount was measured by the following method: the Hb concentration in Hb-PDA MPs corresponding to the encapsulation efficiency of 52.0 +/-4.7 percent is calculated as C through the encapsulation efficiency_total. At the time of measuring days, taking Hb-PDA MPs water suspension, centrifuging at 8000rpm for 10min, measuring Hb concentration in supernatant by potassium ferricyanide method, and recording as C_superHb leakage amount ═ C_super/C_total. The results are shown in FIGS. 10 and 11.

HBOCs are required to participate in blood circulation to supply oxygen to aerobic tissues and parts of the body, so that the tolerance to the flow shear environment is an important basis for predicting the safety and effectiveness of the HBOCs in vivo. Shear conditions at different vascular sites were simulated by establishing a parallel plate flow cell based flow shear system. Respectively putting Hb-PDA MPs at 200S^-1、400S^-1、800S^-1、1600S^-1At a shear rate of (2) for 10, 20 and 30min (i.e. 200S)^-1At a shear rate of (2) for 10, 20, 30min, 400S^-1、800S^-1、1600S^-1Also circulating for 10, 20 and 30min), respectively, Hb leakage and average particle size of Hb-PDA MPs were measured. The results are shown in FIGS. 12 and 13.

FIG. 10 shows that the particle size of Hb-PDA MPs after preparation was 820.7 + -26.0 nm, the particle size did not change significantly in two weeks, the average particle size was 807.5 + -19.0 nm on day 13, and there was no statistical difference compared to day 1, indicating that Hb-PDA MPs have better particle size stability.

FIG. 11 shows that no burst of Hb in aqueous suspension of Hb-PDA MPs was detected during the 42 day storage period. Hb-PDA MPs and Hb-MnCO₃Hb leakage at day 42 of MPs was 3.9 + -0.4% and 37.5 + -0.3%, respectively (statistically significant differences), indicating MnCO₃The template is not effective in preventing hemoglobin leakage, and the structure is more stable after the PDA and Hb are combined, which may be the twoDue to hydrogen bonding interactions.

Experiment six: evaluation of oxygen supply Capacity

The experiment was carried out using a relative evaluation apparatus and a relative evaluation method for the oxygen carrying-releasing ability of the oxygen carrier. The relative evaluation apparatus is disclosed in patent application No. CN107228947A, and comprises a flow cell A, B. Adding 2ml of 0.9 wt% normal saline into the flow cell A, and filling nitrogen until the oxygen partial pressure is reduced to 0 so as to simulate an anoxic environment. And adding an equal amount of sample to be detected (Hb-PDA MPs) into the flow cell B, and filling oxygen to enable the flow cell B to reach an oxygen saturation state. And stopping inflating after the pressure values of the two flow cells reach stability. And mixing the sample in the pool B into the pool A, wherein the anoxic environment promotes the sample to continuously release oxygen into the environment, and measuring the oxygen partial pressure after mixing. The oxygen partial pressures before and after mixing in the B pool are respectively marked as P₀、P₁The oxygen partial pressure difference Δ P ═ P₁-P₀And the delta P can qualitatively reflect the oxygen carrying-releasing capacity of the sample. Hemoglobin stock, 0.9 wt% NaCl Solution (NS), BSA-PDA MPs as controls. Wherein BSA-PDA MPs are micro-nano particles of poly-dopamine-loaded bovine hemoglobin, namely MnCl containing BSA (the concentration of Hb stock solution in the preparation process of BSA and Hb-PDA MPs is the same) is selected in the coprecipitation step₂And Na₂CO₃The raw materials are prepared by the same method as the invention in other steps. The results are shown in FIG. 14, using the Hb-PDA MPs of example 3 as an example. The preparation method of the hemoglobin stock solution comprises the following steps: centrifuging fresh whole blood of cattle at 4 deg.C and 4000rpm for 10min, and removing supernatant; resuspending the precipitated red blood cells with 0.9% NaCl solution, washing with the same centrifugation parameters until the supernatant is clear and transparent; resuspending red blood cells with 0.9% NaCl solution, adding 5 times volume of hypotonic NaCl solution and chromatographic balance solution, stirring at 100rpm for 60min, and filtering with 0.22 μm microfiltration membrane to obtain hemoglobin primary product; 13.2g/dL of hemoglobin stock solution is extracted from the hemoglobin primary product by anion exchange chromatography.

FIG. 14 shows that Δ P for NS group, BSA-PDA MPs group, Hb group and Hb-PDA MPs group are: 52.1 +/-2.9 mmHg, 54.5 +/-0.4 mmHg, 67.2 +/-1.1 mmHg and 78.7 +/-0.7 mmHg. This result indicates that NS and BSA-PDA MPs do not have oxygen carrying-releasing ability, while Hb increases the partial pressure level of oxygen in the system and has a certain oxygen carrying-releasing ability. Compared with Hb, the higher value of the delta P of the Hb-PDA MPs group shows that the oxygen release effect of the Hb-PDA MPs group is better under the hypoxia environment, and the oxygen supply under the acute anemia condition is more favorable.

Experiment seven: evaluation of radical scavenging ability

Hydroxyl radical is an important index for evaluating the antioxidant capacity of bioactive substances. H₂O₂With Fe²⁺Can generate hydroxyl free radical through Fenton reaction to react with phenanthrene-Fe²⁺Fe in aqueous solution²⁺Oxidation to Fe³⁺Leading to the decrease of the absorbance of the system at 536nm, and the inhibition degree of the Hb-PDA MPs on the decrease rate of the absorbance of the test system at 536nm can reflect the capability of the Hb-PDA MPs in clearing hydroxyl radicals. The measurement is carried out by adopting a hydroxyl radical scavenging capacity measurement kit (purchased from Beijing Solaibao science and technology Co., Ltd.), and the measurement method is as follows: adding 550 μ l of hydroxyl radical test solution into experimental group, control group and blank group, respectively, adding 25, 500, 75, 100, 125, 150, 175, 200 μ g of Hb-PDA MPs and 100 μ l of hydrogen peroxide (H)₂ O ₂3% by volume) of the control group, 250. mu.l of distilled water and 100. mu. l H were added to the control group₂O₂The blank was added 350. mu.l of distilled water. After incubation at 37 ℃ for 1h, the experimental groups were centrifuged at 10000rpm for 10min and the supernatant was collected. Double distilled water was zeroed and the absorbance at 536nm was immediately determined for each group. The measured values of the experimental group, the control group and the blank group were respectively designated as A_t、A_c、A₀Hydroxy radical scavenging rate ═ a_t-A_c)/(A₀-A_c). Hydroxyl radical scavenging ability of Trolox (water-soluble vitamin E) and Hb (same as experiment six) at different concentrations was measured in the same manner, and compared with Hb-PDA MPs for analysis. The results are shown in FIG. 15.

FIG. 15 shows that Hb-PDA MPs can remove hydroxyl radicals up to 83.1%, Trolox can remove hydroxyl radicals up to 98.1% as a known antioxidant, and Hb-PDA MPs can remove hydroxyl radicals up to 85% of Trolox. Hb-PDA MPs help reduce the attacking effect of free radicals on Hb in vivo, thereby maintaining the structural and functional stability thereof. The clearance rate of Hb to hydroxyl free radical is only 9.2 percent at most, which shows that Hb has no anti-oxidation property and can not resist the attack of free radical.

The foregoing is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, various modifications and decorations can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these modifications and decorations should also be regarded as the content of the present invention.
