Description

Carrier-free nano-drug and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of biological medicine, in particular to a carrier-free nano-drug, a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Cancer remains one of the major diseases threatening human health, and although treatments for cancer continue to advance with the development of the pharmaceutical field, chemotherapy remains the current major treatment in clinic. However, the traditional chemotherapeutic drugs have the defects of poor water solubility, lack of targeting, serious side effects, easiness in causing multi-drug tolerance and the like, so that the treatment effect is seriously weakened. The nano carrier not only enhances the stability and bioavailability of the anticancer drug, but also reaches the tumor part through various targeting strategies, enhances the deep penetration of the tumor, and reduces the toxic and side effects and tolerance. Despite the advantages of nano-drug delivery systems, there are still problems of low drug loading (typically less than 10%), undefined metabolic mechanism of carrier materials in vivo, potential toxicity, complex and cumbersome carrier preparation process, large batch-to-batch differences, etc., which greatly limit the clinical transformation of carrier drug delivery systems.
In order to solve the defects of nano-carriers, carrier-free nano-drugs formed by self-assembly of small-molecule drugs or prodrugs are generated. The carrier system is usually nanoparticles formed by assembling one or more drugs through non-covalent acting force under the condition of no or least using inert materials, not only has the advantages of a carrier delivery system, but also solves the problems of low drug loading rate, complicated preparation process, large batch-to-batch variability and the like of the nano carrier system, eliminates the potential toxicity of the carrier to organisms, and shows great potential of the carrier-free nano drug delivery system as a drug delivery platform. However, the existing carrier-free nano-drug is limited by the physical and chemical properties of drug molecules, such as crystallinity, rigidity and the like, so that the problems of poor stability, low drug loading, uncontrollable particle size or morphology and the like are caused, or the nano-carrier formed by self-assembly of a single drug is easy to generate drug resistance to tumors and the like, so that the further clinical application of the nano-drug is limited. Therefore, developing a nano-carrier with high co-self-assembly efficiency is important to improving the curative effect of the carrier-free nano-drug on tumor treatment.
Disclosure of Invention
In order to solve the defects in the prior art, the invention aims to provide a carrier-free nano-drug and a preparation method and application thereof, so as to solve the problem that the existing drug is difficult to self-assemble or cannot co-self-assemble to form nano-carriers.
The technical scheme for solving the technical problems is as follows: the preparation method of the carrier-free nano-drug comprises the following steps: co-self-assembling the modified hydrophobic anticancer drug with alpha-TOS (alpha-tocopheryl succinate) to prepare carrier-free nano-drug; wherein the modified hydrophobic anticancer drug is a hydrophobic anticancer drug containing a protecting group, namely, the modified hydrophobic anticancer drug is prepared by reacting the hydrophobic anticancer drug with the protecting group to reduce the crystallinity of molecules.
The beneficial effects of the invention are as follows: the hydrophobic anticancer drug molecules are difficult to self-assemble by themselves or cannot co-self-assemble with alpha-TOS to form nano carriers due to the structural problems of the molecules such as strong molecular crystallinity, and the hydrophobic molecules are modified by adding a protecting group to modify, so that charge distribution conditions around polar groups are influenced, the capability and the speed of agglomeration among molecules in water are reduced, so that the molecules cannot be agglomerated quickly, and precipitation is generated. The flexible long-chain molecular structure of the alpha-TOS further prevents the aggregation state among hydrophobic anticancer drug molecules from growing, furthermore, the benzene ring structure of the alpha-TOS participates in the aggregation of the hydrophobic anticancer drug molecules, and the ordered aggregation of the original drug molecules is changed, so that the modified hydrophobic anticancer drug can be self-assembled with the alpha-TOS to prepare the carrier-free nano drug.
Based on the technical scheme, the invention can also be improved as follows:
further, the preparation method of the carrier-free nano-drug comprises the following steps: dissolving the modified hydrophobic anticancer drug in an organic solvent to obtain a solution A; dissolving alpha-TOS in a solvent to obtain a solution B; and mixing the solution A and the solution B uniformly, then slowly dripping the mixed solution into water under the stirring condition, and finally removing the organic solvent to prepare the carrier-free nano-drug.
Further, the hydrophobic anticancer drug is 7-ethyl-10 hydroxycamptothecin (SN 38), paclitaxel (PTX), methotrexate, camptothecin, etc.
Further, the modified hydrophobic anticancer drug is BOC protected 7-ethyl-10 hydroxycamptothecin or BOC protected paclitaxel.
Further, the BOC protected 7-ethyl-10 hydroxycamptothecin is prepared by the following method: adding 7-ethyl-10 hydroxycamptothecin into dichloromethane solvent under inert gas atmosphere, mixing, sequentially adding di-tert-butyl dicarbonate and pyridine, reacting for 12h at normal temperature, cleaning, collecting organic layer, drying, and concentrating.
Further, BOC-protected paclitaxel was prepared by the following method: and (3) adding paclitaxel into a dichloromethane solvent under an inert gas atmosphere, uniformly mixing, sequentially adding di-tert-butyl dicarbonate and pyridine, reacting for 12 hours at normal temperature, cleaning, collecting an organic layer, drying and concentrating to obtain the taxol.
Further, after the solution A and the solution B are mixed, the mass ratio of the modified hydrophobic anticancer drug to the alpha-TOS is 1:1-5, and preferably the mass ratio of the modified hydrophobic anticancer drug to the alpha-TOS is 1:3.
Further, water was added thereto and stirred at room temperature for 8 to 15 minutes.
Further, the organic solvent is removed by means of dialysis.
The carrier-free nano-drug prepared by the method can be used for preparing anticancer drugs.
The invention has the following beneficial effects:
(1) The invention uses alpha-TOS as an active material for constructing the carrier-free nano-drug, has anticancer activity, and avoids the aim of solubilization, transportation and maintenance of in vivo half-life of the drug by using a large amount of carrier materials without drug activity in the traditional nano-drug carrying system.
(2) The invention modifies the hydrophobic anticancer drugs such as 7-ethyl-10 hydroxycamptothecin, taxol and the like in a mode of protecting by a protecting group, for example, protecting by a BOC and the like.

Accurately sucking 84 mu L of DMSO solution of BOC-SN38 into a 1.5mL EP tube, sucking 84 mu L of 90mg/mL of DMSO solution of alpha-TOS into the EP tube, supplementing DMSO solvent again, and fully mixing the solution with the total solvent volume of 0.6 mL. The solution was added dropwise to 5mL of deionized water under magnetic stirring, and after the addition was completed, stirring was continued for 10min. After the stirring was completed, the obtained solution was dialyzed using a 2kDa dialysis bag, and the dialysis process was continued for 12 hours, during which time deionized water was replaced three times. And (3) after the dialysis is finished, obtaining the carrier-free nano solution with the modified SN38 and the alpha-TOS concentration of 1:3.
The carrier-free nano-solution with the modified SN38 and the alpha-TOS concentration of 1:5 and 1:7 is prepared according to the same method.
The obtained unsupported nanoparticles were characterized and their properties were determined as follows:
(1) Particle size, potential and morphology characterization of unsupported nanoparticles
The particle size and potential of the solution of unsupported nanoparticles obtained in example 1 above were measured by Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS), wherein the dispersion medium was water.
As can be seen from fig. 10, the carrier-free nanoparticle sizes of modified SN38 and α -TOS at concentrations of 1:3, 1:5, and 1:7 were 75.12 ±4.87nm, 72.15 ±0.38nm, and 66.89±3.26nm, respectively, and the potentials were: -26.00.+ -. 1.97mV, -25.60.+ -. 1.10mV, -25.10.+ -. 1.50mV.
As can be seen from FIG. 7, the unsupported nanoparticles prepared by modifying SN38 and alpha-TOS have a bilayer structure.
(2) Drug loading rate of carrier-free nanoparticles
The drug loading of BOC-SN38 in the unsupported nanoparticles prepared in example 1 was determined as follows:
the drug-loaded nanoparticles were diluted to a suitable concentration using a mobile phase (acetonitrile/water phase=65/35, v/v; water phase is 36mmol/L sodium dihydrogen phosphate and 4mmol/L sodium heptanesulfonate, ph=4.8), the peak area of the sample was determined by HPLC, and the BOC-SN38 content in the nanoparticles was calculated. The HPLC detection wavelength was 380nm, and the flow rate was 0.5mL/min.
The nanoparticles were additionally diluted to an appropriate concentration using methanol and the content of α -TOS in the nanoparticles was determined by HPLC. Determination conditions for HPLC: the mobile phase was methanol/glacial acetic acid=625/4, v/v; detection wavelength 284nm; the flow rate was 1mL/min. And according to the test result, calculating: the BOC-SN38 drug loading is 78.09% and the alpha-TOS drug loading is 88.03%.
(3) Stability test of unsupported nanoparticles
BOC-SN38@α -TOS unsupported nanoparticles prepared in various proportions according to the preparation method in example 1 above were placed in a refrigerator at 4℃and the particle size change thereof was measured by dynamic light scattering at predetermined time points (0 day, 31 day and 70 day). As a result, as shown in fig. 10, the prepared nano-particles had good stability, and the particle size was stable in the stability test for 70 days.
(4) Cytotoxicity of unsupported nanoparticles
The cytotoxicity of the constructed unsupported nanoparticles to 4T1 cells is determined by adopting an MTT method, and the specific process is as follows:
preparing single cell suspension from 4T1 cells in good state, counting, diluting to 5×10 with fresh culture solution 4 cells mL -1 . After mixing, 100. Mu.L of cell suspension is added to the 96-well plate in sequence, shaking is carried out gently, and the mixture is placed in an incubator for incubation for 24 hours. After the cells are completely adhered, 100 mu L of culture medium and different concentrations of SN38 and BOC-SN38 which are diluted in an equal gradient manner are respectively added for 48 hours of incubation. After incubation, the 96-well plate was removed and 5 mg/mL diluted ten times with serum-free medium was added to each well -1 100. Mu.L of MTT solution was placed again in the incubator and incubated for 4h. After incubation, the 96-well plate was removed, after sufficient pipetting of the plate with a pipettor, 100 μl DMSO was added to each well, and the wells were shaken on an shaker to fully dissolve the formazan, and then the absorbance values for each well were determined using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay at 490nm wavelength. Cytotoxicity of SN38 drugs to 4T1 cells before and after modification was also determined using the MTT method.
As can be seen from the MTT test results, the molecular weight of the sample was 0.019. Mu.M-1.87X10 -5 In the μM concentration range, SN38 was comparable to 48h cytotoxicity of 4T1 cells before and after modification (FIG. 12), and IC50 values were obtained at 9.56X10, respectively -4 Mu M and 6.84×10 -4 Mu M; as can be seen from the MTT assay results for 48h (drug concentration is calculated as BOC-SN 38), the BOC-SN38@alpha-TOS nanoparticles showed lower cell viability than the free drug BOC-SN38 at concentrations of BOC-SN38 above 1.77 μg/ml over the defined dosing concentration rangeIndicating its cytotoxicity superior to single drug (figure 13). When the concentration of BOC-SN38 is below 1.77. Mu.g/ml, the effect of BOC-SN38@α -TOS nanoparticles is comparable to that of free BOC-SN 38. This may be due to the nanoparticle delayed drug release process. Meanwhile, the inhibition capacity of free BOC-SN38 is obviously increased under the condition of low BOC-SN38 concentration after the combination of alpha-TOS, and the synergistic effect between the two medicines is further shown.
