Description

Silk protein/biological ceramic composite material and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of implantable medical devices, and particularly relates to a silk fibroin/bioceramic composite material, and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Current orthopedic implant devices are based on metallic materials, such as stainless steel and titanium alloys. Although these materials have excellent mechanical properties, they have a number of clinical drawbacks such as osteoporosis due to stress shielding after long-term implantation, and possible secondary surgery. The research and development of bioabsorbable materials matched with the mechanical properties of natural bones can effectively solve the clinical difficulty. The related research on the biological absorbable orthopedic implant devices at present mainly comprises magnesium alloy, polylactic acid and copolymers thereof, biological ceramics, natural proteins and the like. The metal-based bioabsorbable materials represented by magnesium alloy have unsatisfactory effects in biocompatibility, osteoinductive property and the like, and the degradation of metal in vivo can cause great stress on kidneys. The synthetic polymer-based bioabsorbable materials represented by polylactic acid and its copolymers can overcome many disadvantages of the conventional implant materials, but the degradation products of the materials are acidic, which is unfavorable for new bone growth. Although the bioceramic materials represented by calcium phosphate have good biocompatibility and bone conductivity, the single bioceramic materials have low breaking strength and large brittleness, and are not suitable for bearing parts.

Detailed Description
Reference will now be made in detail to embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below by referring to the drawings are illustrative and intended to explain the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the invention.
In one aspect of the invention, a method of preparing a silk fibroin/bioceramic composite is provided. According to an embodiment of the present invention, referring to fig. 1, the method includes:
s100: freeze drying silk protein solution, grinding
In this step, the silk protein solution is freeze-dried and ground to obtain silk protein freeze-dried powder. Silk protein as one kind of natural protein material has excellent mechanical performance, physical and chemical properties, excellent biocompatibility, high biological absorbability, capacity of promoting bone formation, etc. The purpose of the above-mentioned freeze-drying is to obtain amorphous powders with a low content of beta-sheet structure.
According to one embodiment of the invention, the silk protein solution is freeze-dried by the following steps: freezing the silk protein solution in a refrigerator or liquid nitrogen at-20 ℃ to-196 ℃ for 5-360min (for example 5/10/50/100/150/200/250/300/360min and the like); the silk fibroin solution after freezing is placed in a freeze dryer for freeze drying for 2-5 days (e.g., 2/3/4/5 days, etc.). Therefore, the silk fibroin freeze-dried powder prepared by adopting the conditions has a low-content beta-sheet structure, the particle size is uniform, and the particle diameter is in the range of 10nm-200 mu m.
According to a further embodiment of the invention, the mass fraction of silk proteins in the silk protein solution is 0.1-40% (e.g. 0.1/1/10/20/30/40%, etc.), whereby the silk protein solution in this mass fraction range further ensures that the prepared silk protein powder structure is controllable, with a low content of beta-sheet structure.
According to another embodiment of the invention, the preparation method of the silk fibroin solution comprises the following steps: a) Placing natural silk cocoons into a carbonate water solution or a bicarbonate water solution, heating and boiling to degumm, rinsing degummed silk and drying to obtain degummed silk; b) Mixing the degummed silk with a lithium bromide aqueous solution, and dissolving to obtain a silk protein lithium bromide solution; c) Dialyzing the silk fibroin lithium bromide solution, wherein the dialysate is ultrapure water, and removing lithium bromide in the solution so as to obtain a crude silk fibroin solution; d) And (3) carrying out centrifugal separation and purification on the crude silk protein solution, and collecting supernatant to obtain the silk protein solution. Therefore, the silk fibroin solution prepared by the method has stable quality and adjustable concentration.
According to a further embodiment of the invention, the particle size of the silk fibroin freeze-dried powder obtained by grinding is 10nm-200 μm, such as 10/100/200/400/600/800nm, 1/10/50/100/150/200 μm and the like, preferably 20nm-500nm, thereby limiting the particle size of the silk fibroin freeze-dried powder within the above range, and further ensuring better effect of the subsequent hot pressing step. The inventor finds that if the particle size of the silk fibroin freeze-dried powder is too large, the hot-pressing effect is poor, and the silk fibroin particles which are not plasticized appear; if the particle size is too small, the agglomeration of particles may be serious.
According to a further embodiment of the invention, the grinding is performed by: the freeze-dried silk protein powder is placed in a grinder, the grinding time is 1-10 min (such as 1/2/4/6/8/10min, etc.), the rotating speed is 5000-30000 r/min (such as 5000/10000/15000/20000/25000/30000r/min, etc.), and the silk protein freeze-dried powder with proper particle size is obtained.
S200: mixing the silk fibroin freeze-dried powder and the bioceramic powder
In this step, the silk fibroin lyophilized powder and the bioceramic powder are mixed to obtain a mixed powder.
According to a further specific embodiment of the invention, the mass ratio of the silk fibroin lyophilized powder to the bioceramic powder is 1: (0.01-3.00), for example 1:0.01/0.05/0.1/1/1.5/2/2.5/3, etc., preferably (9:1) - (1:3), whereby the mass ratio of the silk fibroin lyophilized powder to the bioceramic powder is limited within the above range, and a bone repair material excellent in both mechanical properties and degradation properties can be obtained. The inventors found that if the content of the bio-ceramic powder is too small, the mechanical properties of the composite material are affected, and if the content of the bio-ceramic powder is too large, the hot pressing properties of the composite material are poor. The mechanical strength and degradation performance of the silk fibroin/bioceramic composite material can be regulated and controlled by changing the mass ratio of silk fibroin to bioceramic.
According to a further embodiment of the invention, the particle size of the bioceramic powder is between 10nm and 200 μm, for example 10/100/200/400/600/800nm, 1/10/50/100/150/200 μm, etc., preferably between 20nm and 500nm, whereby the particle size of the bioceramic powder is limited to the above-mentioned range, further ensuring a good effect of the subsequent hot pressing step.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the specific kind of the bioceramic powder is not particularly limited, and may be arbitrarily selected according to actual needs by those skilled in the art, and as a preferred embodiment, the bioceramic powder is selected from at least one of calcium phosphate powder and hydroxyapatite powder.
S300: hot pressing the mixed powder
In the step, the mixed powder is put into a mould for hot pressing, and the silk fibroin-biological ceramic composite material is obtained after demoulding. The hot pressing causes the amorphous silk proteins to be largely converted into beta-sheet structures. The high temperature and high pressure promote the transformation of the structure of the silk fibroin on one hand and enable the bioceramic powder to be closely distributed in the silk fibroin on the other hand.
According to another specific embodiment of the present invention, the hot pressing temperature is 50-200 ℃ (for example 50/100/150/200 ℃ and the like), the pressure is 1-1000MPa (for example 1/10/100/200/400/600/800/1000MPa and the like), the time is 15-360min (for example 15/50/100/200/300/360min and the like), and the hot pressing condition is limited in the above range, so that the silk protein-biological ceramic composite material with excellent mechanical property and degradation property can be obtained. The inventor finds that if the hot pressing temperature is too low, the material plasticization is incomplete, so that the mechanical property of the composite material is poor, and if the hot pressing temperature is too high, the thermal degradation of the composite material is caused, so that the mechanical property is poor; if the pressure is too small, incomplete plasticization of the material is caused, so that the mechanical property of the composite material is deteriorated, and if the pressure is too large, the degradation property of the composite material is deteriorated; if the time is too short, incomplete plasticization of the material is caused, so that the mechanical property of the composite material is deteriorated, and if the time is too long, the thermal degradation of the composite material is caused, so that the mechanical property is deteriorated.
According to a further specific embodiment of the invention, the silk fibroin/bioceramic composite is in the shape of a square bar or a cylindrical bar, wherein the silk fibroin/bioceramic bulk of the square bar is 0.5-100mm in length, 0.5-100mm in width and 0.5-100mm in thickness; the diameter of the fibroin/bioceramic of the cylindrical bar is 0.5-100mm, and the length is 1-500mm.
According to the method for preparing the silk fibroin/bioceramic composite material, the silk fibroin/bioceramic composite material prepared by the method has good biological performance (including biocompatibility, biodegradability, bioabsorbable property and the like), so that the silk fibroin/bioceramic composite material can be processed into bone implants such as bone nails, vertebral body fillers and the like to replace the metal bone implants and degradable synthetic polymer bone implants which are widely used at present, and osteoporosis, possible secondary surgery, adverse immune reaction and the like caused by stress shielding after long-term implantation of the metal bone implants and the degradable synthetic polymer bone implants are avoided; meanwhile, the silk fibroin/bioceramic composite material can have the characteristics of a high polymer material and an inorganic material, has excellent mechanical strength, has good bone conduction capacity and bone induction capacity, and can be used for repairing bones of bearing parts. In addition, the preparation method is simple, does not contain any organic solvent, is environment-friendly in processing process, and is suitable for industrial production.
In a second aspect of the invention, the invention provides a silk fibroin/bioceramic composite. According to an embodiment of the invention, the silk fibroin/bioceramic composite is prepared by the method described in the above embodiment. Therefore, the silk fibroin/bioceramic composite material has good biological performance (including biocompatibility, biodegradability, bioabsorbable property and the like), so that the silk fibroin/bioceramic composite material can be processed into bone implants such as bone nails, vertebral body fillers and the like to replace the metal bone implants and degradable synthetic polymer bone implants widely used at present, and osteoporosis, possible secondary surgery, adverse immune reaction and the like caused by stress shielding after long-term implantation of the metal bone implants and the degradable synthetic polymer bone implants are avoided; meanwhile, the silk fibroin/bioceramic composite material can have the characteristics of a high polymer material and an inorganic material, has excellent mechanical strength, has good bone conduction capacity and bone induction capacity, and can be used for repairing bones of bearing parts.
In a third aspect of the invention, the invention provides a silk fibroin/bioceramic composite orthopaedic implant, which is prepared by adopting the silk fibroin/bioceramic composite material as a production raw material.
