Super macroporous hydrogel and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of biology, and particularly relates to a superporous hydrogel and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Superporous hydrogels, which are defined as hydrogels with internal pore sizes exceeding 1 μm, are becoming popular for more and more researchers as a novel biomedical material due to their high similarity in structure and composition to many human tissue organs and the like, especially in the fields of tissue regeneration, drug delivery, organoid construction, and the like. In the field of tissue regeneration, by loading cells, medicines or cytokines and the like, the macroporous hydrogel has the characteristics of being highly similar to human tissue and organs in structure and physical characteristics, and can provide mechanical support and biochemical signals for the cells, induce the cells to repair damaged tissues better and reconstruct the structure and functions of the tissues. In the field of drug delivery, the macroporous hydrogel can precisely act on an affected part in a patch form, and the oversized pore diameter is favorable for quick release of cells or drug molecules on the affected part, so that an efficient treatment effect is achieved. In the organoid field, the ultra-large pore structure and the bionic physical property provide a proper environment for proliferation and differentiation of cells, and are ideal scaffold materials for organoid construction.
The methods commonly used for preparing the superporous hydrogels at present are a freeze-drying method, a template method and a pore-forming agent method, however, the superporous hydrogels prepared by the methods have two main disadvantages, namely the complicated preparation process is required, and the excessive preparation process is not beneficial to commercial mass production. In addition, the mechanical property is poor, the ultra-macroporous structure belongs to structural defects in material mechanics, and the ultra-macroporous structure is easier to cause the damage of materials under the action of external force. Therefore, the preparation method of the superporous hydrogel is improved, and the mechanical property of the superporous hydrogel is improved, so that the superporous hydrogel is beneficial to the future wide application in the field of biological medicine.
The invention with publication number CN112725327A discloses a preparation method of a cell immobilization carrier, which comprises the following steps: uniformly mixing a sodium alginate solution and polyvinyl alcohol to obtain a carrier solution; wherein the mass ratio of the sodium alginate to the polyvinyl alcohol is 1:2-10; adding diatomite into the carrier solution, uniformly mixing, gradually extruding the gel mixed solution dropwise into a crosslinking solution in a continuous stirring state for solidification to form coagulated beads, washing the coagulated beads, freezing and crosslinking at the temperature of-25 to-15 ℃, and thawing to obtain the cell immobilization carrier. The sodium alginate solution and the polyvinyl alcohol can be crosslinked into gel under the action of a crosslinking agent.
The invention provides a preparation method of a drug and protein slow-release alginate hybrid gel, which is disclosed in the publication number CN 103040727A. The preparation method comprises the following steps: firstly preparing calcium alginate hydrogel, then soaking the calcium alginate hydrogel into inorganic salt solutions of trisodium phosphate, diammonium hydrogen phosphate, sodium silicate, sodium carbonate, sodium oxalate and the like with certain concentration to swell for a certain time, and then soaking the swelled calcium alginate hydrogel into a medicine and protein water solution containing calcium ions with certain concentration to crosslink for a certain time to obtain the medicine and protein slow-release alginate hybrid gel.
However, there is no report in the prior art of using sodium alginate and polyvinyl alcohol to prepare superporous hydrogels.
Disclosure of Invention

A method for preparing superporous hydrogel, comprising the following steps:
(1) Preparing sodium alginate solution, polyvinyl alcohol solution and calcium chloride solution respectively;
(2) Mixing sodium alginate solution and polyvinyl alcohol solution to obtain polyvinyl alcohol/sodium alginate mixed solution;
(3) Adding a cross-linking agent calcium chloride solution into the polyvinyl alcohol/sodium alginate mixed solution, cross-linking to obtain the polyvinyl alcohol and sodium alginate composite super-macroporous hydrogel,
wherein the concentration of the sodium alginate solution is 4wt%, the concentration of the polyvinyl alcohol solution is 10wt%, and the sodium alginate solution and the polyvinyl alcohol solution are mixed according to the volume ratio of 1:1.
Preferably, in the step (1), the concentration of the calcium chloride solution is 0.5M, and the volume ratio of the calcium chloride solution to the polyvinyl alcohol/sodium alginate mixed solution is 3:2.
Preferably, in the step (3), bubbles in the mixed solution of polyvinyl alcohol and sodium alginate are removed before the calcium chloride solution is added.
Preferably, in step (3), the crosslinking process is left to stand for at least 12 hours.
Preferably, in the step (3), the resulting superporous hydrogel is immersed in ultrapure water to remove free calcium ions after the completion of the crosslinking.
Preferably, the pore size distribution in the superporous hydrogel is 100-900 μm.
The invention also provides the superporous hydrogel prepared by the preparation method.
The invention also provides application of the superporous hydrogel in cell culture, wherein the superporous hydrogel is soaked in a culture medium when in application, and then cells are injected into holes in the superporous hydrogel for cell culture.
The invention also provides a cell culture method, which uses the superporous hydrogel to soak the superporous hydrogel in a culture medium, and then the cells are injected into the pores inside the superporous hydrogel for cell culture.
The invention selects sodium alginate as a framework material of gel, provides necessary mechanical properties for the material, and adds polyvinyl alcohol into the gel to induce phase separation, so as to form a high-density phase formed by aggregation of sodium alginate and a low-density phase formed by polyvinyl alcohol. The high-density phase formed by closely gathering the crosslinked sodium alginate is a framework structure, and the low-density phase formed by the free polyvinyl alcohol and containing a large amount of water is a hole structure.

(7) Control gels were prepared in centrifuge tubes: taking 2ml of the sodium alginate solution in the step (1) and the control group solution in the step (4), adding the solution into a 5ml centrifuge tube, removing bubbles generated in the adding process of the solution through a centrifuge, slowly adding the calcium chloride solution in the step (5) into the centrifuge tube, and filling the residual space in the centrifuge tube with the calcium chloride solution.
(8) Standing and crosslinking: and (3) standing the centrifuge tube samples obtained in the step (6) and the step (7) for 12 hours at room temperature, and fully crosslinking the calcium chloride solution and the sodium alginate to obtain the polyvinyl alcohol and sodium alginate compounded superporous hydrogel and the control group gel.
(9) Removing free calcium ions: taking out the porous hydrogel and the control group gel in the step (8), soaking in ultrapure water for 24 hours, and changing water once in the middle for 12 hours to obtain a final hydrogel sample. Finally, the gel is obtained as a super-macroporous hydrogel (abbreviated as 1-1) with the mixing ratio of polyvinyl alcohol/sodium alginate of 1:1, and the gel of the control group comprises a composite gel with the mixing ratio of 5:1 (abbreviated as 5-1) and 1:5 (abbreviated as 1-5), and a hydrogel of pure sodium alginate (abbreviated as Alg).
(10) Pore size distribution: firstly, cutting the ultra-large pore gel and the control group gel in the step (9) into slices with the thickness of about 1mm through a sample cutting machine, placing the slices in a central area of a section of an observation sample under an optical microscope, and carrying out statistical analysis on a pore structure in a microscopic photo by utilizing software after photographing.
(11) Porosity (P) test: cutting the ultra-macroporous hydrogel (1-1) in the step (9) into a thickness of 3mm, and then weighing the mass (m) 1 ) Then placing the cut sample on a paper towel, squeezing gel by hand, removing water from the sample, repeatedly squeezing for three times, and weighing the sample mass (m 2 ) The porosity can be calculated by two weighed mass changes:
P=(m 1 -m 2 )/m 1 ×100%
(12) Moisture content test (Q): slicing the superporous hydrogel in the step (9), and weighing to obtain the mass m 1 Then placing in an oven at 80 ℃ for 24 hours, weighing after the sample is completely dried to obtain m 2 The water content of the superporous hydrogel can be calculated through the mass change of the sample before and after drying:

Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 3, when the volume ratio of polyvinyl alcohol to sodium alginate is 5:1 and 1:5, or when the hydrogel is prepared by using pure sodium alginate solution, the ultra-large pore structure cannot be obtained. When the central area of the superporous hydrogel wafer sample is observed under an optical microscope, the pore diameter of the central area can be found to be distributed in a gradient way within the range of 100-900 microns. The pore size of the superporous hydrogel prepared by mixing polyvinyl alcohol and sodium alginate solution according to the volume ratio of 1:1 is statistically analyzed by using analysis software of an optical microscope, and further, as shown in fig. 4, sample 1 and sample 2 are repeated twice, and it can be seen that the pore size of most macropores is distributed in the range of 100-500 micrometers, the pore size of more than 500 micrometers is intensively distributed in the middle area, and the phenomenon that the pore sizes are distributed from large to small in a gradient manner in the interior is related to the manner that calcium ions penetrate from outside to inside for crosslinking.
In addition, in order to measure the porosity of the superporous hydrogel, a sample cutting machine is used for cutting the superporous hydrogel to a thickness of about 5mm, free water in holes is drained through a repeated extrusion mode, and the porosity of the superporous hydrogel is calculated to be about 85% with the mass change before and after water is drained, so that the superporous hydrogel belongs to a higher level in the reported superporous hydrogel.
