Description

Composite absorbable implant and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of medical implants, and relates to a composite absorbable implant, and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Medical implants are currently widely used in human tissue repair, and these implant products have a high degree of tissue compatibility within the human body. These implants are typically implanted in the body for therapeutic purposes, but are not degradable in the body and require re-surgery for removal. Therefore, even if a material having high biocompatibility is implanted for a long period of time in the human body, rejection reaction may occur.
To address the problems that result after surgery with non-degradable materials, one approach has been to develop implants that are degradable in vivo. Degradable implants interact with the body medium physiological processes or tissues, resulting in gradual degradation of the implant material. These materials will decrease in vivo over time, the implant will eventually degrade and the degradation products will be absorbed by the body without the need for a secondary operation. However, the mechanical properties of artificially synthesized or natural absorbable polymers are insufficient and cannot bear higher mechanical strength, and the material brittleness is large and poor in impact resistance due to the degradable polymers represented by the high-mechanical-property levorotatory polylactic acid, and the material brittleness is further increased after the activity of the inorganic biological material is enhanced; the degradable polymer represented by polycaprolactone with excellent flexibility is low in tensile strength and elastic modulus, and the implant needs to meet the special requirements of elastic modulus, toughness and plasticity. Unfortunately, most polymers cause inflammation during the absorption of degradable polymers, resulting in severe intimal hyperplasia or thrombotic occlusion.
Some researchers have attempted to develop absorbable bio-corrodible metal alloys to overcome the disadvantages of degradable polymers. The corrodible metal alloy is selected from alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, iron, zinc and aluminum, while metals or alloys of magnesium, iron, zinc, which can be used with manganese, cobalt, nickel, chromium, copper, cadmium, lead, tin, thorium, zirconium, silver, gold, palladium, platinum, silicon, calcium, lithium, aluminum for improving the metal properties, are particularly suitable as implant materials. Although there have been some advances in the field of bioerodible metal alloys, the use of known alloys is limited due to material properties, such as strength and corrosion behavior. Compared with other metals, the magnesium alloy has relatively high biological corrosion speed and relatively uneven corrosion, and the later period is higher in corrosion speed and relatively lower in strength.
US20040098108A1 discloses a metal implant that degrades at a suitable rate after completing a temporary support function, thereby avoiding the negative effects of long-term implantation. The main component of the material is alkali metal, the alkaline earth metal comprises magnesium, iron, zinc and aluminum, and manganese, cobalt, nickel, chromium, copper, cadmium, lead, tin, thorium, zirconium, silver, gold, palladium, platinum, rhenium, silicon, calcium and lithium are used as auxiliary components.
US20080103594 discloses an absorbable medical implant composite, the implant being made of a bioerodible alloy selected from the group consisting of magnesium, calcium, iron, and yttrium. Suitable metallic elements which provide higher strength and delayed in vivo corrosion.
CN109881238A discloses an active coating with self-healing function coated on the surface of a magnesium-based material, which is prepared by firstly adopting micro-arc oxidation technology to prepare a porous magnesium oxide coating containing phosphorus and calcium on the surface of the magnesium or magnesium alloy, then using a spin-coating deposition method to spin-coat an F-MSNs @ PLLA coating on the porous magnesium oxide coating containing phosphorus and calcium, and finally using a dipping deposition method to obtain a DCPD coating with high osseointegration effect on the surface. The magnesium material is coated with a layer of magnesium oxide, a F-MSNs @ PLLA coating and dicalcium phosphate in sequence to slow down the early-stage over-rapid degradation of magnesium.
CN105377318A discloses a bioabsorbable biomedical implant. The implant includes a tubular scaffold comprising a plurality of interconnected polymer struts. The interconnected polymer struts define a plurality of deformable cells. The polymer struts have an average thickness of no more than 150 μm. Also disclosed are methods for making the bioabsorbable biomedical implant, including methods of making fiber reinforced polymer composites for tubular stents.
However, the absorbable polymer in the prior art has poor mechanical property, some degradation products are acidic, the metal degradation is too fast and nonuniform, the degradation products are alkaline, the solubility is poor, the metal degradation is fast and slow before and after, and the support effect in the early stage and the middle stage cannot be met; the local acidity of some polyester-based polymer degradation and the generation of local alkalinity as metal degradation products can lead to tissue damage. At present, ceramic reinforced composites, especially anisotropic ceramic and polymer composites, are disordered in arrangement, the polymer segments are entangled and cannot be stretched, and the ability to absorb the implanted surface is very important, which affects the subsequent interaction between the material and the tissue and cells, such as cell adhesion, protein adsorption and tissue inflammation, thus limiting the good function of the composite in the human body.
Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a composite absorbable implant with relatively stable mechanical properties in the repair process, controllable metal degradation, uniform degradation speed, capability of interacting with the tissue microenvironment and promoting better cell propagation and growth, and a preparation method and application thereof.

Note that "-" indicates that the pure metallic magnesium wire was completely degraded within 6 months and could not be tested.
As can be seen from Table 1, the implants of the present invention, prepared using the methods of examples 1-11 and comparative examples 1-8, significantly improved the tensile strength, elongation at break, flexural strength and flexural modulus of the composite material. In the degradation liquid after 6 months, the mechanical property of the implant is still maintained to be more than 70%.
The data of examples 1-5 show that varying the magnesium metal ratio results in improved tensile strength, flexural strength, and flexural modulus.
Example 6 increasing the amount of degradable composite fiber significantly increases the flexural strength and flexural modulus.
Examples 7-8 increase of nano-hydroxyapatite in degradable composite fibers resulted in improved flexural strength and flexural modulus.
Example 9 the tensile strength and the bending strength were improved by replacing hydroxyapatite in the degradable composite fiber with a short ultra-fine magnesium filament.
Example 10 changes the drawing speed, the magnesium wire drawing speed, and is beneficial to the orientation of the polymer and the hydroxyapatite, and the tensile strength and the bending strength are improved.
Compared with the single organic polymer and ceramic composite material, the composite material of the invention has the advantages that the metal magnesium wire is added for compounding, the mechanical properties of the implant are greatly improved, the tensile strength, the bending strength and the bending modulus are greatly improved, and the requirements of the implanted medical instrument on the mechanical properties are met.
Comparative examples 2-4 show that both degradable composite fibers and nano-hydroxyapatite orientation significantly improve the elongation at break, flexural strength, and flexural modulus of composite implants.
Comparative examples 5 to 8 show that the content of the metal magnesium wire is low, the implantation mechanical property is low, and high mechanical property cannot be provided; too high magnesium metal and too low degradable composite fibers result in faster degradation of the implant in vivo.

As can be seen from the data in Table 3, the polymer chain segments relax and orderly arrange and orient the nano-hydroxyapatite to promote the cell proliferation, and the polymer chain segments with disordered arrangement relax and orderly arrange and the hydroxyapatite inhibit the cell proliferation.
(3) Cell adhesion Rate test
The composite absorbable implants prepared in examples 1 to 11 and comparative examples 1 to 8 were subjected to a cell adhesion rate test, and the test results are shown in Table 4.
The test method is as follows:
culturing rat osteoblasts, adding 5ml of 2.5g/L trypsin into the osteoblasts according to a 6-well plate cultured for 10h, digesting for 3-5min, centrifuging to remove supernatant, and performing air-assisted counting. The adhesion rate of the cells per well was calculated as follows:
