Application of gold nanoclusters and medicine for reducing male reproductive toxicity of copper ions
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of biological medicine, in particular to application of gold nanoclusters and a medicine for reducing male reproductive toxicity of copper ions.
Background
Copper is a trace element necessary for biological growth, next to the third most abundant trace element of iron and zinc, which has an important role in maintaining body homeostasis. However, too much copper can lead to oxidative damage of proteins and nucleic acids, lipid peroxidation and enzyme inhibition. Copper contamination becomes one of the heavy metal contaminants in the environment. It has been reported that chronic copper poisoning has a significant effect on the liver, and can lead to hepatolenticular degeneration and the like. There are also studies reporting that excessive copper can affect the reproductive system, reduce testosterone levels, reduce sperm motility and survival, reduce testicle weight, lead to reduced male/male fertility and even male infertility. How to remove copper ions and reduce the male reproductive toxicity effect of copper ions is an important and urgent research direction.
With the continuous development of nanotechnology, new nanomaterials are used in different research fields. Among them, the application of nanomaterials in biomedical fields is particularly important. Nanomaterials include liposomes, polymers and branched polymers, metal-based, magnetic and silica-based, etc., which have made significant progress as drugs, additives or carriers in the fields of gene therapy, drug delivery, imaging, and novel drug discovery technologies.
The research shows that copper ions can cause serious reproductive toxicity, damage the structure of seminiferous tubules and cause cavitation damage and apoptosis. It has been shown that intraperitoneal injection of supplemental iron can improve copper liver accumulation due to excessive calcium in the body. L-carnitine has an improving effect on toxicity and sperm quality of copper-exposed rat testes. The curcumin extract has protective effect on testis injury induced by copper oxychloride, and improves sperm health parameters.
Currently existing technologies for treating copper metabolic disorders mainly include metal chelators, such as: penicillamine, trientine; and zinc salts. For increasing excretion or decreasing absorption, but similar abnormal nerve deterioration occurs in different metal chelating treatments, and hepatic copper metabolism disorders require careful use of zinc salts, which has prompted the search for safer treatments.

In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention, however, the present invention may be practiced otherwise than as described herein, and therefore the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments of the disclosure that follow.
Use of gold nanoclusters for reducing cytotoxicity of copper ions, in one embodiment for reducing CuCl 2 Male reproductive toxicity effects of (a).
The application also provides a medicine for relieving male reproductive toxicity of copper ions, which comprises gold nanoclusters.
To further validate the present application, the inventors employed the following validation experiments.
Example 1: gold nanocluster specifically absorbs copper ions
The method comprises the following specific steps:
first, auNCs were synthesized: in one embodiment, chloroauric acid (5 mL, 10 mmol/L) and BSA (5 mL, 50 mg/mL) were stirred at 37 degrees for 2 minutes. NaOH (0.5 mL, 1.0M) was then added and the mixture was rapidly stirred at 37℃and reacted for 12 hours to give gold nanoclusters of 2 to 5 nanometers as shown in FIG. 1 (A).
Adding the synthesized gold nanoclusters to CuCl with different concentrations 2 In the solution, a fluorescence diagram as shown in FIG. 1 (B) was obtained. It can be found that the gold nanoclusters can capture CuCl 2 At the same time CuCl 2 Can change AuNC s Can quench AuNC under 365 nm ultraviolet light s Is a fluorescent light of (a) and (b).
Example 2: in vitro experiments show that the gold nanoclusters reduce cytotoxicity of copper ions:

2) Culturing for 24 hours.
3) Using CuCl of different concentrations 2 Cells were treated for 24 hours.
4) Mu.l of CCK8 reagent was added, and the mixture was placed in a 37℃incubator, and absorbance at 450nm was measured after 1 hour.
Referring to FIG. 2 (A), when CuCl 2 The higher the concentration, the lower the survival of GC1 cells,
second group: study of AuNC at different concentrations s Is CuCl-reducing 2 Is (are) cytotoxicity test

Group D: cuCl 2 +AuNC s Group (mice 4): each of the injections was prepared by intraperitoneal injection of CuCl at a weight (4. Mu.g/g) 2 A solution. 200 μl AuNC was injected immediately into tail vein s (18 mg/mL) and 200. Mu.l of AuNC were again injected into the tail vein 1 hour apart s . Two-sided testes were sacrificed 48 hours later and paraffin sections of testis tissue were made after 4% PFA fixation 48 hours, and HE staining and TUNEL detection experiments were made for each group after sections, comparing the differences of each group.
Referring to FIG. 3, it can be seen that CuCl 2 Resulting in death of germ cells in the mouse testis, resulting in destruction of testis tissue morphology, cuCl 2 +AuNC s Can alleviate CuCl 2 Resulting histological destruction of the testes (fig. 3B).
