Description

Preparation method and application of coupled exosome hydrogel based on biotin-avidin system
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of tissue engineering scaffold materials, in particular to a preparation method and application of coupled exosome hydrogel based on a biotin-avidin system.
Background
Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease that occurs in periodontal tissues and is characterized by progressive destruction of the tooth support structure with extremely high incidence. Periodontal tissue loss due to advanced periodontitis is a major cause of tooth loss in adults, and no effective treatment is currently available. Traditional periodontal treatment means (such as cleaning/scraping and flap turning, etc.) are used for controlling the development of inflammation and preventing the progress of diseases by removing periodontal local plaque and tartar, but these treatment methods cannot reconstruct and regenerate the periodontal tissues which have been destroyed or lost. Existing periodontal regenerative treatment strategies include guided tissue regeneration and guided bone regeneration, and although periodontal tissue regeneration effects can be obtained to some extent, the indications of clinical treatment are narrow and the predictability is poor, and the clinical treatment requirements cannot be met. The introduction of new tissue engineering technology into periodontitis treatment becomes an important point and core of periodontal regeneration research in the new century, and brings new hope for the preservation of the suffering teeth of the late periodontitis.
In recent years, stem cell exosomes (Exsosomes, EXs) are used as one of research hotspots for stem cell therapy, and a new research idea is developed for stem cell therapy of periodontitis. EXs are vesicle vesicles of about 40-160nm diameter secreted by stem cells by exocytosis and are rich in bioactive substances such as mRNA, microRNA, DNA and proteins. Stem cell EXs plays an important role in the process of tissue regeneration, and can promote the recruitment of endogenous stem cells to damaged sites, improve the efficacy of recruiting stem cells and regulate and control immune response. The prior study shows that under the condition of not implanting exogenous stem cells, the regeneration of the alveolar bone and periodontal ligament of the rat can be obviously promoted by simply using stem cells EXs.
Although stem cell EXs has unique advantages and great application prospects in tissue regeneration, the stem cell EXs have low bioavailability, difficult extraction and clinical transformation still face multiple challenges. First, stem cells of systemic injection have non-uniform EXs biodistribution and short half-life. Stem cells ex injected systemically (subcutaneously, intravenously, intraperitoneally, etc.) will soon (< 2 hours) enrich into liver, spleen, lung, gastrointestinal, etc. areas and are cleared by macrophages of spleen and kidneys, so there is a small amount of ex reaching the defective areas. Local application and injection of stem cells EXs can increase the concentration of EXs, but EXs can be diluted quickly by blood or interstitial fluid. Secondly, stem cells EXs are combined with various cells mainly through membrane fusion, the targeting effect of the combination is limited, a large amount of EXs can be taken up by tissue cells in a non-target area, and the defect repairing function is difficult to play. In addition, extraction and purification of stem cell EXs are difficult, and the application cost is high. The ultracentrifugation method is the most widely and reliable method for extracting stem cells EXs, but 1mL of cell culture solution can only extract EXs of less than 1 mug, and is difficult to meet the number requirement of 10-100 mug/time required for repairing periodontal defects of mice. Whereas for humans, the dose required for treatment is often hundreds or thousands of times that of mice. Therefore, to achieve clinical transformation of stem cells EXs, particularly for treatment of non-lethal diseases with high incidence of periodontitis, it is necessary to significantly improve regeneration efficiency of stem cells EXs, so that a small amount of stem cells EXs can efficiently repair tissue defects.

And the combination of biotin and avidin has high stability, and the combination of acid, alkali, denaturant, high temperature and proteolytic enzyme and organic solvent is not interfered. In addition, the non-covalent binding based on biotin-avidin has no obvious influence on molecular activity, so that the biotin-avidin binding system can be firmly combined with materials on the premise of not reducing the activity of stem cell EVs, the retention time of EXs in the defect part is greatly prolonged, and the regeneration efficiency of EXs is improved.

Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below. The specific conditions are not noted in the examples and are carried out according to conventional conditions or conditions recommended by the manufacturer. The reagents or apparatus used were conventional products commercially available without the manufacturer's attention.
It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments of the present application and features of the embodiments may be combined with each other. The present application will be described in detail with reference to specific examples.
The general idea of the technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the invention is as follows:
in a first aspect, embodiments of the present application provide a method for preparing a coupled exosome hydrogel based on a biotin-avidin system, the method comprising:
Adding stem cell Exosomes (EXs) and Biotin into a first solvent to perform a first mixing reaction to obtain Biotin-labeled stem cell exosomes (Biotin-EXs);
adding gelatin and activated biotin into a second solvent for a second mixing reaction, and then dialyzing to obtain biotinylated gelatin;
Performing a third mixing reaction on the biotin-labeled stem cell exosomes and Avidin to obtain Avidin-EXs;
and carrying out a fourth mixing reaction on the avidin-treated stem cell exosomes and the biotinylated gelatin to obtain the hydrogel coupled with the exosomes.
The good biological safety and multiple biological activities of the stem cells EXs avoid the risks brought by stem cell transplantation, and can exert the similar therapeutic effects as stem cell transplantation, so the stem cells EXs are hopefully replaced and are used for regenerating various tissues. However, due to the low extraction efficiency of stem cells EXs, short half-life and poor targeting, the stem cells EXs can be quickly cleared by macrophages in the liver, spleen and other places after being injected into a human body. Therefore, the embodiment of the application provides a preparation method of coupled exosome hydrogel based on a biotin-avidin system, which anchors stem cells EXs on, for example, methacrylamide gelatin (GelMA) and the like, so that the two are combined with each other in high strength, thereby achieving the aim of integrating materials and EXs, prolonging the residence time of the EXs at the defect part and improving the regeneration efficiency of the EXs.

Example 2 preparation of biotinylated MSC-EXs (Bio-EXs) and optimization of related parameters
2.1 Extraction and identification step of MSC-EXs
After culturing MSCs in exosome-free serum medium for 48 hours, the supernatant was collected and the supernatant was sequentially freed from cells, cell debris and larger diameter vesicles at 200g for 5 minutes, 3000g for 10 minutes, 16000g for 30 minutes. The supernatant after centrifugation was filtered using a 0.22 μm filter, and the MSC-EX was extracted by ultracentrifugation (100000 g,75 min). To remove residual proteins in MSC-EX, MSC-EX was resuspended using PBS and purified again by ultracentrifugation. The obtained MSC-EX was stored in sub-package to-80 ℃.
The particle size distribution of MSC-EX was analyzed using a nanoparticle size analyzer. MSC-EX was diluted with PBS to the appropriate concentration (100-500 particles/. Mu.L) and then run on-machine, and the data collected was analyzed using a nanoparticle size analyzer with software ZetaView PMX (Particle Metrix, meerbusch, north Rhine-WESTPHALIA, germany) to obtain the Particle size distribution of MSC-EX.
MSC-EX surface topography was examined using Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). After dropping 20. Mu. LMSC-EX suspension on copper mesh, it was counterstained with 2% phosphotungstic acid solution for 10 minutes, after which it was dried, it was observed and photographed under 120kV using TEM.
Western blot was used to detect expression of MSC-EX exosome characteristic proteins. RIPA extracts total protein, 20. Mu.g protein was added to each loading well of 4-12% gradient pre-mix, run for 35 min at 150V constant pressure, and flow-through membrane at 300 mA for 2 hours. 5% nonfat milk powder was blocked at room temperature for 2 hours, TBST was used to wash the membrane, followed by overnight incubation with exosome-characterized proteins and reference primary antibodies (CD 63, HSP70, TSG101, β -Actin and GAPDH) at 4℃and membrane washing was performed after incubation. After the film washing is finished, the film is incubated with the corresponding HRP-conjugated secondary antibody for two hours at room temperature, and after the film washing is performed again, the film is incubated with the luminous solution for 5 minutes, and the film is placed in an imager for exposure and photographing.
The particle size distribution of MSC-EX and the surface protein markers were detected using a nanofluidic instrument. According to the literature related to analysis of exosomes by the early-stage nanoflow instrument, the line was washed with a dedicated wash solution prior to each test, the VSSC-H threshold was manually set to 1500 to reduce background interference, and the acquisition signal threshold was set to 10. To improve the accuracy of the detection, the flow rate of the sample is manually set to be 10 mu L/min, the concentration of the sample is diluted to be less than 10000 particles/mu L by using particle-free (less than 100 particles/mu L) PBS, and then the data is acquired, wherein the acquisition amount is not less than 100000. Calibration was performed using 80, 100, 150, 200, 300 and 500nm nano fluorescent microsphere standards with particle size analysis range of 60-220nm. The percent fluorescence of Phycoerythrin (PE) was measured using a 585/42nm filter channel, the percent fluorescence of Allophycocyanin (APC) was measured using a 660/20nm filter channel, and the percent Fluorescence of Isothiocyanate (FITC) was measured using a 525/40nm filter channel.
After the machine parameters were set, 100. Mu.L of MSC-EX was incubated with 1. Mu.g of the APC-labeled CD63 antibody or PE-labeled CD81 antibody at room temperature for 15min in the absence of light, and the ratio and particle size distribution of CD63 or CD81 positive MSC-EX were detected using a nanofluidic instrument with undyed MSC-EX as a negative control. The collected data was analyzed using software CytExpert 2.0.0.
2.2 Biotinylation modification of MSC-EXs (Bio-EXs) and optimization of the parameters of preparation
First, the applicant uses DSPE-PEG-FITC or DSPE-PEG-biotin to modify MSC-EX phospholipid bilayer membranes. DSPE-PEG-FITC/DSPE-PEG-biotin was dissolved in absolute ethanol (10 mmol/L) to prepare a mother liquor which was stored to-80 ℃. Working solutions (0, 10, 20, 50 and 100. Mu. Mol/L) of different concentrations were then prepared by dilution of DSPE-PEG-FITC/DSPE-PEG-biotin with PBS and incubated with MSC-EXs at room temperature for 30 minutes, respectively. Ultracentrifugation (100000 g,75 min) removed excess unbound DSPE-PEG-FITC/DSPE-PEG-biotin. The DSPE-PEG-biotin modified exosomes still need to be incubated with SA-PE for 30 minutes at room temperature in the absence of light, and excessive SA-PE is removed by overspeed dissociation washing after incubation. The positive labelling rate of exosomes DSPE-PEG-FITC/DSPE-PEG-biotin was detected using a nanofluidic instrument.
The DSPE-PEG-FITC/DSPE-PEG-biotin modified MSC-EX was examined using a laser confocal microscope, incubated with 20. Mu. Mol/L DSPE-PEG-FITC/DSPE-PEG-biotin for 30min at room temperature protected from light, and washed by ultracentrifugation. DSPE-PEG-biotin labeled MSC-EX still requires additional incubation with Alexar 568 conjugated streptavidin for 30 minutes at room temperature followed by ultracentrifugation washing. The DSPE-PEG-FITC/DSPE-PEG-biotin marked MSC-EX is placed under a laser confocal microscope for observation and photographing.
2 Mu L of PKH26 (Ex 551nm/Em 567 nm) dye liquor and 1ml of diluent C are mixed to prepare exosome dye liquor, 100 mu L of MSC-EX extracted and exosome dye liquor are fully mixed and placed at room temperature for incubation for 10 minutes in dark place, and after dyeing, the residual free dye is removed by centrifugal washing by using a 100kD ultrafiltration tube. PKH26 labeled MSC-EX was incubated with macrophages in incubator, after 12 hours, the specimens were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde, stained with DAPI, observed under confocal microscope and photographed.
2.3 Correlation results
1) Identification of MSC-EX:
TEM images show that the extracted MSC-EX has a typical cup-like structure. The nanoparticle size tracker results showed that MSC-EX particle size was mainly distributed between 60 and 220nm with a peak at 120 nm. Western blot results showed that MSC-EX highly expressed the exosome-associated proteins (CD 63, TSG101 and HSP 70) compared to MSC (FIGS. 5 a-c). The nanofluidic results showed that MSC-EX particle size was mainly distributed between 60-200nm with a peak at 70nm (FIG. 5-d), CD63 positive rate of 56.99% and CD81 positive rate of 66.12% (FIG. 5-e). The confocal fluorescence image showed that PKH 26-labeled MSC-EX was phagocytosed by cells after 24 hours incubation with cells (FIG. 5-f).
2) Preparation and identification of biotinylated MSCs:
The nanoflow results showed that DSPE-PEG-FITC self-assembled into the MSC-EX phospholipid bilayer membrane structure and that after incubation with gradient concentrations of DSPE-PEG-FITC (10, 20, 50, 100 μmol/L), FITC positive rate of MSC-EX increased with increasing DSPE-PEG-FITC concentration, 63.82%, 77.03%, 82.73% and 85.56%, respectively (fig. 6-a). Representative fluorescence plots also showed that PKH26 labeled MSC-EX was co-localized with PKH26 after co-incubation with 20. Mu. Mol/L DSPE-PEG-FITC, and that almost all PKH26 labeled MSC-EX was modified by DSPE-PEG-FITC (FIG. 6-b). Similar to DSPE-PEG-FITC, the nanofluidic results and representative fluorescence plots show that DSPE-PEG-biotin can self-assemble into phospholipid bilayer membrane structures of MSC-EX. Nanofluidic results showed MSC-EX biotin positivity of 60.94%, 80.25%, 82.56% and 84.21% after incubation with gradient concentrations of DSPE-PEG-biotin (10, 20, 50, 100. Mu. Mol/L), respectively (FIG. 6-c). Representative fluorescence plots also showed that after PKH 26-labeled MSC-EX was incubated with 20. Mu. Mol/L DSPE-PEG-biotin, DSPE-PEG-biotin was co-localized with PKH67 (Ex 490nm/Em 502 nm), and almost all PKH 67-labeled MSC-EX was modified by DSPE-PEG-biotin (FIG. 6-d). Fluorescence plots showed that both EX and Bio-EX were taken up by cells after 24 hours of co-incubation with no significant difference in uptake rate (fig. 6-e, f). These results demonstrate that 20. Mu. Mol/L DSPE-PEG-biotin can be used for subsequent biotinylated modification of MSC-EXs, and that the biotinylated modification of MSC-EXs does not affect its ability to be taken up by cells.

3.1 Preparation of GelMA hydrogels based on biotin-avidin System coupled MSC-EXs

Specifically, different molar ratios of Avidin@Bio-EX (1:1, 1:2, 1:3) were prepared by first incubating Bio-EX with different molar ratios of streptavidin (Avidin) for 1 hour at 4deg.C. 2X 1010 Avidin@Bio-EX and Avidin@EX without biotinylation modification were resuspended in 50. Mu.L PBS and then mixed with 50. Mu.L of 20% GelMA (wt/vol) containing 0.5% LAP (wt/vol) to prepare Bio-GelMA@Bio-EX or Bio-GelMA@EX, and the mixture was gelled by irradiation with 405nm blue light for 15 seconds for the subsequent experiments.

The new PBS is replaced at 0, 1, 4 and 7 days, and the fluorescence microscope is used for photographing, so that parameters such as exposure degree, contrast and the like of the microscope are kept consistent during photographing. Images were analyzed for fluorescence intensity using ImageJ 1.53k software and EX in vitro retention was calculated using the following formula:
Retention of MSC-EX (in vitro) =fluorescence intensity Each time point /fluorescence intensity Initial time point ×100%

3.3 Results
3.1 Retention and Release Rate of MSC-EX in Bio-GelMA@Bio-EX hydrogel
Retention Rate of MSC-EX (in vitro)
GelMA hydrogel construction strategy based on biotin-avidin system coupling MSC-EXs is shown in the following figure. The fluorescence plot shows that on day 1, little fluorescence of Bio-GelMA@EX has been detected (FIG. 7-b), and statistical analysis also shows that Bio-GelMA@EX is significantly lower than that of the other three groups of Bio-GelMA@Bio-EX hydrogels (FIG. 7-c). On day 4, a clear fluorescent signal was still observed in the three groups of Bio-GelMA@Bio-EX hydrogels, and the fluorescent intensity of the control group of Bio-GelMA@EX hydrogels was still the lowest (FIG. 7-b). On day 7, the fluorescence intensities of Bio-EX@Avidin (2:1) and Bio-EX@Avidin (3:1) in the three groups of Bio-GelMA@Bio-EX hydrogels were still significantly higher than those of the control group (FIG. 7-c).
MSC-EX release rate (in vitro)
Over time, the total EX release was continuously increasing, and the total EX release was significantly lower for the Bio-GelMA@Avidin (2:1) group on days 1 and 4 than for the control group, bio-GelMA@EX, with no significant differences between the other groups (FIG. 7-d).
Retention Rate of MSC-EX (in vivo)
In vivo imaging results showed that the fluorescence intensities of the four sets of hydrogels decreased with time. The fluorescence of the control Bio-GelMA@EX hydrogel was barely detectable 7 days after subcutaneous implantation, whereas the Bio-GelMA@Bio-EX hydrogel was still detectable 28 days after subcutaneous implantation (FIG. 7-e). The quantitative analysis results show that the fluorescence intensity of the Bio-GelMA@EX hydrogel of the control group on the 1 st day is greatly reduced to be 23.37% of that of the initial group, and the fluorescence of the hydrogel of the Bio-GelMA@Avidin (2:1) group still remains 51.58%. Similarly, on day 4,7,28, the fluorescence intensity of the hydrogel was significantly higher for the Bio-GelMA@Avidin (2:1) group than for the Bio-GelMA@EX group, with no significant differences between the other groups (FIG. 7-f).
