Description

Design synthesis of in-situ gel and application of in-situ gel in medicament for removing calculus and fragments
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of medical material methods for urology surgery, and particularly relates to design synthesis of an in-situ gel and application of the in-situ gel in a medicament for removing stones and fragments.
Background
At present, retrograde intra-renal surgery (RIRS) based on a flexible-URS (flexible-URS) is a safer and minimally invasive method for treating intrarenal calculi. The RIRS operation is a procedure in which a large stone is broken into extractable fragments by means of laser lithotripsy, and the broken stone of a certain size is taken out of the kidney through a ureteral sheath (UAS) by means of a stone basket. Despite long-term optimization of laser systems, devices and surgical methods, laser lithotripsy inevitably results in the production of large quantities of tiny, unsmokable stone fragments that remain in the urinary system. The residual stone fragments can cause renal colic in the stone removing process, even the formation of ureter stone street, and cause the damage of renal function; in addition, the patient who naturally removes the calculus needs to keep the inner stent tube for a long time, so that the infection and the discomfort related to the stent tube are increased, and the life quality of the patient is seriously reduced. Finally, residual calculus may serve as a focus for secondary calculus formation, a risk factor for recurrence of calculus, and the likelihood of the patient needing re-surgery is high.
The current method for removing residual tiny calculus fragments in kidney is mainly a natural calculus removal method. In order to increase the removal rate of calculus, some experts propose the idea of forming and removing the adhesion body together with calculus during the operation by injecting curable liquid such as patient's own blood and adhesive polysaccharide solution, etc., but such techniques are not well popularized due to the problems of unclear field of vision, long curing time, complicated material preparation and residual in vivo risk. At present, in the existing patents (such as CN 105491966A), an acidic solution containing iron ions, calcium ions and polysaccharide is combined with an alginate polysaccharide solution to coat the calculus, but the defects of poor calculus coating effect, strong system acidity, tissue damage and the like still exist, and further popularization and application are influenced.

Effect example 1
This effect example measured the injection pressure of the dispersion system a of examples 1 to 3 at different concentration values of sodium alginate during the simulated surgery, and the results are shown in fig. 1. As can be seen from fig. 1, the injection pressure increased greatly with increasing concentration of sodium alginate in the dispersion a.
Effect example 2
This effect example examines the ratio of different concentration values of sodium alginate in the dispersion system a and different concentration values of calcium chloride in the dispersion system B in examples 1 to 5 that can be taken out of hydrogel by the rock-jacketed basket during the simulated surgery through the continuous injection and flushing of physiological saline with a flow rate of 0.2mL/s, and the test results are shown in fig. 2, wherein calcium chloride in the dispersion system B in fig. 2 is represented by Ca and sodium alginate in the dispersion system a is represented by SA, and it can be seen that as the concentration of sodium alginate in the dispersion system a and the concentration of calcium chloride in the dispersion system B increase continuously, the gel can maintain its structure under the continuous flushing of physiological saline, is not flushed by water, and can be taken out of the rock-jacketed basket completely from the simulated conditions.
Effect example 3
Examination of various concentration values of sodium alginate in Dispersion A in examples 1-3 the number of operations and volume of Dispersion A required to remove 200mg of kidney stone fragments having an average particle size of 2mm in the manner of the present invention during the course of the simulated surgery are shown in FIGS. 3 and 4. As can be seen from figures 3 and 4, as the concentration of sodium alginate in dispersion a increases, the number of operations required to remove a given amount of kidney stone fragments and the volume of dispersion a solution required both significantly decreases. Thus, increasing the concentration of sodium alginate in dispersion A within an acceptable range of injection pressures can increase the efficiency of the procedure and reduce the duration of the procedure.
Effect example 4
This effect example the chemical properties of the gel prepared in example 1 were examined by attenuated total reflectance fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), and the results are shown in fig. 5; FIG. 5 is a Fourier transform infrared spectrum of an in situ gel system containing sodium alginate, an in situ gel system, a kidney stone, and a coated kidney stone; compared with sodium alginate, no new infrared absorption peak appears in the in-situ gel system, which shows that sodium alginate in the disperse system A and calcium chloride in the disperse system B form gel in an ionic crosslinking mode; meanwhile, compared with the other three, no new infrared absorption peak appears in the in-situ gel system coated with the kidney stone, which shows that the sodium alginate in the disperse system A is combined with the calcium stone in a manner of chelating carboxyl and calcium ions.
Effect example 5
In this effect example, the surface morphology of the gel prepared in example 1 was observed using a thermal field emission scanning electron microscope (QSEM), and the results are shown in fig. 6 and 7; as can be seen from fig. 6 and 7, sodium alginate in dispersion a is capable of interacting with the kidney stone surface; with reference to fig. 5, the sodium alginate in the dispersion system a of the in situ gel system provided by the present invention has the ability to generate specific binding by chelation between carboxyl and calcium ions.
Effect example 6
In this effect example, the element composition and distribution of the gel prepared in example 1 were further observed by using a thermal field emission scanning electron microscope (QSEM), and as a result, as shown in fig. 8 and 9, it can be seen from fig. 8 and 9 that the in situ gel system provided by the present invention can coat kidney stones containing calcium phosphate and magnesium ammonium phosphate.
Effect example 7
The results of this example using the method of comparative example 1 to remove a certain mass of kidney stone fragments are shown in fig. 10. The results show that the dispersion systems G and C are respectively injected into the kidney stone fragment area in the normal saline, and a large amount of sodium alginate solution cannot be effectively coated on the stone fragments to form glue in the process of injecting the dispersion system C, so that the coating effect is poor; in addition, dispersion G, having a pH as low as about 1.0, may be toxic to tissues and cause secondary trauma.
Effect example 8
In this effect example, the cell compatibility of the gel prepared in example 1 was evaluated by the CCK8 method, and the results are shown in fig. 11. The results show that the gel prepared in example 1 has similar CCK8 detection results to the blank cells at 1 day, 3 days and 7 days, has no statistical difference with each other, and increases with the increase of the culture time. It is demonstrated that the gel prepared in example 1 does not cause cytotoxicity.
Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are intended to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and not to limit the scope of the present invention, and although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that modifications or equivalent substitutions may be made to the technical solutions of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention.
