Description

本発明は、コラーゲンの産生促進剤、プロテオグリカン産出促進剤及び軟骨細胞の遊走促進剤に関する。   The present invention relates to a collagen production promoter, a proteoglycan production promoter and a chondrocyte migration promoter.

コラーゲンは、繊維状タンパク質であり、皮膚や骨の主成分として哺乳類では全タンパク質の約30%を占めると言われている。
また、一般的なコラーゲン分子は、3本のコラーゲンポリペプチド鎖が三重らせん構造と呼ばれるロープ状の超らせん構造をとる。加えて、コラーゲンには、プロリン(Pro)とグリシン(Gly)とが特に多く含まれ、両アミノ酸残基とも安定な3重らせん構造の形成に重要である。
Collagen is a fibrous protein and is said to occupy about 30% of the total protein in mammals as the main component of skin and bone.
Further, in general collagen molecules, three collagen polypeptide chains have a rope-like super helical structure called a triple helical structure. In addition, collagen contains a particularly large amount of proline (Pro) and glycine (Gly), and both amino acid residues are important for the formation of a stable triple helical structure.

生体由来のコラーゲンの作製方法及び利用方法では、例えば、ブタ又はウシの皮膚組織をそのままあるいは凍結乾燥した後、火傷などによる皮膚の損傷部位に移植する方法、酵素処理などによって細胞成分を除去して用いる方法、酸性溶液や酵素処理によって可溶化したコラーゲンを、所望の形態に再構成して用いる方法がある。   In the production method and utilization method of collagen derived from a living body, for example, after porcine or bovine skin tissue is directly or freeze-dried, cell components are removed by a method of transplanting to a skin damage site due to a burn or the like, an enzyme treatment or the like. There is a method to use, and a method to reconstitute and use collagen solubilized by acidic solution or enzyme treatment in a desired form.

一方、ウシの海綿状脳症の原因物質がプリオンと呼ばれる伝染性タンパク質であり、この伝染性タンパク質がヒトのクロイツフェルド-ヤコブ病伝染の原因の一つと言われている。プリオンは、タンパク質であり、通常の滅菌、殺菌方法では失活し難く、しかも種を越えて感染することが指摘されている。
また、生体由来のコラーゲンには、ウイルスが混入している可能性も否定できない。
On the other hand, the causative agent of bovine spongiform encephalopathy is an infectious protein called prion, and this infectious protein is said to be one of the causes of human Creutzfeld-Jakob disease. It has been pointed out that prions are proteins, are hardly inactivated by ordinary sterilization and sterilization methods, and are transmitted across species.
In addition, the possibility that viruses are mixed in the collagen derived from living bodies cannot be denied.

一般に、医療用具や医薬品、化粧品ではウシやブタ由来のコラーゲンを原料として用いることが多い。そのため、通常の滅菌、殺菌方法では除去できないプリオンなどの病原体の感染の危険性が常に存在している。   In general, collagens derived from cattle and pigs are often used as raw materials in medical devices, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics. Therefore, there is always a risk of infection with pathogens such as prions that cannot be removed by ordinary sterilization and sterilization methods.

さらに、生体由来のコラーゲンは、移植対象の患者に対して異種タンパク質であるので、免疫拒絶反応の問題もあった。   Furthermore, since collagen derived from a living body is a heterologous protein for a patient to be transplanted, there has been a problem of immune rejection.

一方、軟骨欠損部の治療では、荷重のかからない部位の軟骨組織を採取して患部に再移植するモザイクプラスティーと呼ばれる手法が中心であった。しかし、自家組織の使用は患者への負担が大きく、その採取量にも限界がある。   On the other hand, in the treatment of cartilage defects, a technique called mosaic plasticity, in which cartilage tissue at a portion where no load is applied is collected and re-implanted to the affected area, has been the main. However, the use of autologous tissue places a heavy burden on the patient, and the amount of collection is limited.

また、コラーゲンを使用した軟骨培養用基材及びその製法が報告されている(特許文献1)。しかし、本特許文献で使用されるコラーゲンは、生体由来である。
さらに、軟骨の再構築のためのコラーゲンI及びコラーゲンIIを含有する再吸収可能細胞外マトリックスが報告されている(特許文献2)。しかし、本特許文献は、上記文献と同様に、生体由来のコラーゲンを使用している。
In addition, a base material for cartilage culture using collagen and a production method thereof have been reported (Patent Document 1). However, the collagen used in this patent document is derived from a living body.
Furthermore, a resorbable extracellular matrix containing collagen I and collagen II for cartilage reconstruction has been reported (Patent Document 2). However, this patent document uses collagen derived from a living body, as in the above document.

人工コラーゲンについて報告されている(特許文献3及び4)。しかし、特許文献3では、人工コラーゲンの軟骨細胞の足場としての利用及び軟骨細胞の増殖促進効果については開示がない。
また、特許文献4では、人工コラーゲン、特に人工コラーゲン水溶液の軟骨細胞の増殖促進効果については開示がない。
Artificial collagen has been reported (Patent Documents 3 and 4). However, Patent Document 3 does not disclose the use of artificial collagen as a scaffold for chondrocytes and the effect of promoting the growth of chondrocytes.
In addition, Patent Document 4 does not disclose the effect of promoting the proliferation of chondrocytes of artificial collagen, particularly an artificial collagen aqueous solution.

加えて、P(プロリン)H(ヒスチジン)G(グリシン)配列が繰り返し続いた人工コラーゲン(分子量が1000万)の軟骨細胞に対する効果を検討した例はあるが、骨芽細胞や靱帯や腱細胞、筋肉細胞に対する効果は知られていない。また、PHG配列が1〜8回繰り返しているペプチドの軟骨細胞、骨芽細胞、筋肉細胞に対する効果は知られていない。   In addition, there are examples of examining the effect of artificial collagen (molecular weight of 10 million) with repeated P (proline) H (histidine) G (glycine) sequence on chondrocytes, but osteoblasts, ligaments, tendon cells, The effect on muscle cells is not known. Moreover, the effect with respect to the chondrocyte, osteoblast, and muscle cell of the peptide which the PHG sequence repeats 1 to 8 times is not known.

(骨芽様細胞に対する人工コラーゲンとPHGペプチドの効果の確認結果)
マウスの3T3骨芽様細胞に人工コラーゲンを添加して1週後のtype I collagenのmRNAの発現を確認した(参照:図10)。さらに、マウスの3T3骨芽様細胞にPHGペプチドを添加して1週のtype I collagenのmRNAの発現を確認した(参照:図11)。
以上により、骨芽細胞に0.05-0.4%の範囲で人工コラーゲンを添加することで、骨芽細胞のタイプIコラーゲンの産生を促進できる。さらに、骨芽細胞に10〜300μMの範囲でPHGペプチドを添加して骨芽細胞のタイプIコラーゲンの産生を促進することができる。
(Confirmation result of artificial collagen and PHG peptide on osteoblast-like cells)
Artificial collagen was added to mouse 3T3 osteoblast-like cells, and the expression of type I collagen mRNA one week later was confirmed (see FIG. 10). Furthermore, PHG peptide was added to mouse 3T3 osteoblast-like cells, and the expression of type I collagen mRNA at 1 week was confirmed (see FIG. 11).
As described above, the production of type I collagen of osteoblasts can be promoted by adding artificial collagen in the range of 0.05-0.4% to osteoblasts. Furthermore, the production of type I collagen in osteoblasts can be promoted by adding PHG peptide to osteoblasts in the range of 10 to 300 μM.
