Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

0001

[Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to an artificial heart-lung machine used to maintain blood circulation and oxygen supply during open-heart surgery, an artificial lung that takes over the lung function of patients with lung failure, and long-term extracorporeal circulation. ECMO (Extr
a Corporate Membrane O
It relates to oxygen exchange membrane materials for gas exchangers such as xygenator.

0002

[Prior Art] Currently, the gas exchanger (the part that adds oxygen to blood and removes carbon dioxide to convert venous blood into arterial blood) of commercially available heart-lung machines used in open heart surgery Depending on the mechanism, it is roughly divided into the following three types: (1) Gas-
Blood direct contact type (bubble type, film type, etc.); (2) Type that performs gas exchange through small holes (diameter of several hundred to several thousand angstroms) (hollow fiber type, laminated type, etc.); (3)
) Gas diffusion type (a type in which gas dissolves and diffuses into a homogeneous membrane and permeates through the membrane).

0003

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] Among the above-mentioned conventional techniques, (1) injects oxygen directly into venous blood in the form of bubbles,
It is the type that causes arterial blood. In this method, direct contact between blood and oxygen gas destroys red blood cell membranes and increases free hemoglobin. In other words, hemolysis is likely to occur. Furthermore, since oxygen gas is directly blown into the blood, this gas remains in the blood in the form of fine bubbles. This is difficult to remove and causes great damage to the blood. Therefore, it is difficult to perform cardiopulmonary function for a long period of time.

In the type (2) in which gas exchange occurs through small holes, there is no direct contact between the blood and gas as in the type (1), so damage to blood cells and gas bubbles mixing into the blood may occur. Such problems will be resolved. However, because water in the blood and plasma components seep out through the small pores, the gas exchange capacity decreases over time. Furthermore, the material of such a membrane is
Usually, polypropylene is used, and these materials have poor blood compatibility. In other words, when these materials are used, activation of blood coagulation factors and complement occurs, and furthermore, platelets and white blood cells are likely to aggregate or thaw. To suppress these reactions, it is necessary to administer large amounts of anticoagulants such as heparin. Large doses of heparin tend to cause bleeding, which can be life-threatening. As described above, it is impossible to use the type (2) type gas exchanger for a long period of time because organ failure due to bleeding or damage to blood cell components occurs frequently.

In type (3), gas exchange is performed through a homogeneous membrane surface, so there is no problem of damage to blood cells or incorporation of gas bubbles into the blood as in type (1), and (2) Unlike other types, it does not have the disadvantage of exuding water and plasma components. Membranes of this type are usually prepared from silicone rubber (silicone-based polymers). Silicone rubber is said to have relatively good blood compatibility compared to other materials. Thus, among the gas exchangers of types (1) to (3), type (3) is considered to be the most suitable. However, this film also has the following drawbacks. (a) Since silicone rubber alone has low strength, it is necessary to increase the film thickness or fill it with filler as a reinforcing agent to maintain the strength. For this reason, gas diffusion slows down and oxygen exchange capacity is low. (b) The blood compatibility of silicone rubber is still not sufficient, and blood coagulation occurs, so large doses of heparin are required when using it, which can easily cause bleeding, which can be life-threatening. I'm going to call you. (c) Activation of complement causes changes in the blood coagulation system, increased permeability of blood vessel walls (for white blood cells, lymphocytes, etc.), and an increase in white blood cells. As a result, fever and shock symptoms may occur, which can be life-threatening, and recovery after surgery may be delayed. An artificial heart-lung machine having this type of gas exchanger can only be used for two to three days at most, and the survival rate is close to zero if the machine continues to be used for a longer period of time.

For example, the following polymers have been studied as materials that can be used in place of the silicone rubber film in (3) above. Examples for improving the strength of (a) include U.S. Pat.
No. 419,635 discloses the production of silicone-polycarbonate copolymers. Additionally, U.S. Patent No. 376
No. 7737 discloses a method for producing a thin film using the copolymer. JP-A-61-430 discloses a selective gas permeable membrane made of polyurea obtained by reacting diamino polysiloxane, an isocyanate compound, and a polyvalent amine. Furthermore, JP-A-60-241
Specification No. 567 (Polymer Basic Technology Research Group Number: PM-8
No. 0) discloses a gas selective permeation membrane made of polyurethaneurea obtained by reacting diaminopolysiloxane, an isocyanate compound, and a polyhydric hydroxy compound having tertiary nitrogen. Although these polymers have relatively high strength, their blood compatibility is still not sufficient, and the above problems (b) and (c) have not yet been solved. Furthermore, the polymers described in JP-A-61-430 and JP-A-60-241,567 have two types of bonds with completely different polarities, siloxane bonds and urea bonds, in their molecules, so when forming a film, It is difficult to select a solvent for this, making it difficult to form a thin film.

As a material that can solve the blood coagulation problem described in (b) above, there is a material described in Kobunshi Ronshu, 36, 223 (
(1979) discloses heparin bound to certain polymers through ionic bonds. The polymer used is a tertiary copolymer of dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate, methoxypolyethylene glycol methacrylate, and glycidyl methacrylate, whose tertiary amino groups are quaternized, blended with polyurethane, and crosslinked by heat treatment. . Molded bodies obtained from this material slowly release heparin from their surfaces, thereby inhibiting blood clotting. However, the gas permeability is not sufficient and it cannot be used for artificial heart-lung machines. JP-A-58-188458 discloses an antithrombotic elastomer made of polyurethane or polyurethane urea containing polysiloxane in its main chain. but,
The antithrombotic properties of this elastomer cannot be said to be sufficiently high. Furthermore, gas permeability is not sufficient and complement activity is not suppressed, so it cannot be used for the above-mentioned purposes.

Many materials that can solve the problem of complement activation in blood described in (c) are found in the field of dialysis membranes for dialysis-type artificial kidneys. For example, artificial organs 16(2), 818
-821 (1987), the diethylaminoethylated cellulose membrane has the following properties compared to the original cellulose membrane:
It has been reported that it significantly suppresses complement activation during dialysis. However, this membrane has poor gas permeability, making it difficult to put it to practical use as a membrane material for oxygenators.

Furthermore, Japanese Patent Publication No. 54-18518 discloses that a copolymer containing a hydrophilic component, a hydrophobic component, and a quaternary ammonium salt component as essential units and heparin exhibits a negative standard membrane potential difference. An anticoagulant medical material is disclosed. However, since this material does not have a gas permeable segment, it not only has no gas permeability at all, but even if a gas permeable segment is introduced into this copolymer, it is not mentioned in the text. If the cationic copolymer contains 5 to 80% water by weight when it is in parallel with water, water and plasma will pass through the membrane made of this copolymer (wet run), and over time Gas permeability decreases and active ingredients in the body leak out, making it difficult to sustain the life of the living body.

It is. The number of carbon atoms in this side chain is, for example, the sum of the number of carbon atoms in R2 shown in Chemical Formula 1 and the number of carbon atoms in the group from the quaternizing agent, and preferably has 7 to 16 carbon atoms. The gas permeable material with excellent blood compatibility of the present invention is characterized by being formed by condensing the above-mentioned polyether polyol having a tertiary amino group containing 50 mol% or more of an amine diol represented by formula 1. shall be. The gas permeable material with excellent blood compatibility of the present invention is
It is characterized by being obtained by treating the above polyurethane or polyurethane urea with heparin.

The diisocyanates used in the polyurethane or polyurethaneurea, which is the gas permeable material of the present invention, include diisocyanates (aromatic,
aliphatic, alicyclic) can be used. As the aromatic diisocyanate, p-phenylene diisocyanate,

, 6-tolylene diisocyanate, xylylene diisocyanate, 4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate, 4,4'-diphenylpropane diisocyanate,
There are aromatic diisocyanates having 8 to 25 carbon atoms such as naphthalene diisocyanate. Examples of the aliphatic diisocyanate include aliphatic diisocyanates having 6 to 20 carbon atoms, such as hexamethylene diisocyanate, heptamethylene diisocyanate, octamethylene diisocyanate, nonamethylene diisocyanate, and decamethylene diisocyanate. As the alicyclic diisocyanate, 4
, 4'-dicyclohexylmethane diisocyanate, and isophorone diisocyanate. The above diisocyanate is 2
A mixture of two or more species may be used. Hereinafter, two or more of the components used in the polymer of the present invention, such as polysiloxane and polyether polyol having a tertiary amino group, may be used as a mixture.

The polysiloxane having a hydroxyl group or an amino group at the molecular end capable of reacting with an isocyanate group is preferably one represented by the following formula 2:

Preference is given to using 10, preferably 3 to 8 amine diols. When the total number of carbon atoms is 3 or less, it has high hydrophilicity and high permeability to water and plasma, and at the same time has high water absorption, so even after quaternization and heparinization, the heparin release rate is fast and lasts for a long time. Blood compatibility cannot be achieved. Moreover, when the total number of carbon atoms exceeds 10, steric hindrance around the nitrogen atom of the tertiary amino group increases, making quaternization difficult. Furthermore, even if quaternization is allowed to proceed, the steric hindrance is too large, and the salt-forming bond with heparin is weakened, resulting in insufficient heparinization and making it difficult to achieve long-term blood compatibility. Further, it is preferable that R1, R2 and R3 are all linear alkyl groups.

Suitable examples of the amine diol used in the present invention include 3-ethyl-3-aza-1,5-pentanediol, 3-propyl-3-aza-1,5-pentanediol, and 3-butyl -3-aza-1,5-pentanediol, 3-pentyl-3-aza-1,5-pentanediol, 3-hexyl-3-aza-1,5-pentanediol, 3-heptyl-3-aza- 1,5-pentanediol, 3-octyl-3-aza-1,5-pentanediol, 3-decyl-3-aza-1,5-pentanediol, 4-methyl-4-aza-2,6-heptane Diol, 4-ethyl-4-aza-2,6-heptanediol, 4-propyl-4-aza-2,6-heptanediol, 4-butyl-4-aza-2,6-heptanediol, 4-heptyl -4-aza-2,6-heptanediol,

[0023] Both the polyurethane and polyurethane urea of the present invention can be prepared by known methods. For example, to prepare polyurethane by a solution polymerization method, first, a polysiloxane represented by Chemical Formula 2 and having a hydroxyl group or an amino group at the molecular end, a diisocyanate, and if necessary, the above-mentioned high molecular weight polyol are added to the isocyanate group. Dissolved in an active solvent and heated at 30-150°C, preferably 40-120°C for 5-300 minutes, preferably 15
The reaction is carried out with stirring under a nitrogen stream for ~120 minutes. This is added to the above-mentioned aminopolyether polyol (NPO) and optionally the above-mentioned low molecular weight chain extender (

Catalysts include tin-based catalysts such as dibutyltin dilaurate, titanium-based catalysts such as tetrabutoxytitanium, or other metal catalysts. The catalyst is added to the reaction solution at a concentration of 1 to 500 ppm, preferably 5 to 100 ppm. For the preparation of polyurethane, a method may also be adopted in which the above-mentioned monomer components to be used are charged at once and melt-polymerized.

In the above polymerization reaction, the mixing molar ratio of each component is as follows: polysiloxane polyol,
Molar ratio with aminopolyether polyol is 100/1
~1/3, preferably 20/1 to 1/5; the molar ratio of polysiloxane polyol and aminopolyether polyol, i.e. NOPS+NPO, to polyol, which is a low molecular weight chain extender (used if necessary) is 1/
100 to 1/1, preferably 1/30 to 1/2; molar ratio of total polyol to diisocyanate is 10/8 to 8/
10, preferably 10/9 to 9/10.

The polyurethaneurea of the present invention can be prepared using any of the known polyurethaneurea preparation methods. Among these, solution polymerization method is particularly suitable. When polyurethane urea is prepared by a solution polymerization method, polysiloxane polyols, aminopolyether polyols, and, if necessary, high molecular weight polyols are used. In this case, these and the diisocyanate are dissolved in an inert solvent. This is heated at 0 to 150°C, preferably at 10 to 100°C, as in the case of the polyurethane above.
The reaction is allowed to proceed for 300 minutes, preferably 15-120 minutes. This is cooled to 0 to 40°C, preferably 5 to 20°C, and the polysiloxane shown in Formula 2 above and having an amino group at the terminal and, if necessary, a low molecular weight chain extender (low molecular weight diamine) are added. A solution dissolved in an active solvent is added dropwise and reacted to obtain a polyurethane urea having a desired molecular weight. In this reaction, since the polymer produced has urea bonds, the solvent used is N,N-
Amide solvents such as dimethylformamide, N,N-dimethylacetamide and N-methylpyrrolidone; or mixed solvents of these with dioxane, tetrahydrofuran and the like are suitable. It is also recommended to add salts such as LiCl, LiBr, CaCl3, etc. to increase the solubility of the resulting polymer. Other conditions such as the orientation ratio of each component are the same as in the case of polyurethane.

The polyurethane or polyurethane urea of the present invention thus obtained is formed into a hollow fiber or thin film shape as described below and used as a gas permeable material in an artificial heart-lung machine or the like. Furthermore, in the polyurethane or polyurethane urea of the present invention, it is necessary to quaternize the tertiary amino group in the molecule and to bond heparin or a similar compound thereof (hereinafter referred to as heparins) to it. By doing so, blood compatibility is further improved. Binding of heparins is carried out by treating polyurethane or polyurethaneurea with a quaternizing agent to quaternize the tertiary amino groups in the molecule, and then treating with heparins to form a polyion complex. As such a quaternizing agent, at least one of alkyl halides, aralkyl halides, allyl halides, and active esters having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, preferably 2 to 8 carbon atoms, is used. Among these quaternizing agents, alkyl halides having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, preferably 2 to 8 carbon atoms are suitable. The quaternizing agent is used in a ratio of 0.1 to 10.0 times, preferably 0.5 to 5.0 times, by mole relative to the tertiary amino groups in the polymer. For quaternizing polyurethane or polyurethane urea, for example, the polymer is dissolved in a suitable solvent and the above-mentioned quaternizing agent is added thereto and reacted; or the above-mentioned quaternizing agent solution is added after molding the polymer. It is carried out by a method of contacting and reacting. A method of reacting in a solution is more preferred. For example, a quaternizing agent is added to a solution of polyurethane or polyurethane urea after completion of polymerization, and 20 to 10
The reaction is carried out at 0°C, preferably 40-80°C, for 0.1-60 hours, preferably 1-30 hours. The quaternization rate of the tertiary amino group thus quaternized is 1 to 100%, preferably 10% or more.

[0028] The polyurethane or polyurethane urea containing a quaternized amino group is made into desired molded products such as membranes and hollow fibers. By bringing heparins into contact with this, the heparins are bound (heparinized). For example, the above-mentioned polyurethane or polyurethane urea molded product having quaternized amino groups is treated with 0 heparin.
．． An aqueous solution containing 1 to 10%, preferably 0.5 to 5% (a mixed solvent of water and a water-soluble solvent such as dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide, tetrahydrofuran or ethanol) at 20 to 100°C, preferably At 40-80°C, for 0.1-40 hours, preferably 0.
Heparinization is performed by soaking for 5 to 30 hours. Here, heparin includes natural or synthetic polymer compounds having heparin: chondroitin sulfate, -SO3H, -NHSO3H groups, and the like.

The polyurethane or polyurethane urea of the present invention can be spun into hollow fibers to form a hollow fiber membrane by a conventional method, or dissolved in an appropriate solvent, cast on a flat plate, and dried to form a thin film. . Furthermore, if necessary,
This is heparinized as described above to provide the desired gas permeable material. When the material of the present invention is utilized as an oxygen exchange membrane in a heart-lung machine, oxygen/carbon dioxide gas exchange is advantageously carried out. Moreover, since the material has excellent blood compatibility, shock symptoms caused by blood coagulation and complement activation are extremely unlikely to occur. When heparinized materials are used, heparin compounds on the polymer are slowly released, resulting in even better anticoagulation properties. In this way, the material of the present invention can be effectively used, for example, in ECMO, which replaces lung function for a long period of time. Furthermore, the material of the present invention can be used for medical oxygen enrichment membranes used in oxygen inhalation therapy for respiratory patients, oxygen enrichment membranes for gas combustion, and the like. Due to its excellent antithrombotic properties, it is also recommended for use as a coating material for medical devices that come into contact with blood.

Comparative Example 1 Using the base polymer solution B obtained in Example 2, base polymer B was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1. Furthermore, in the same manner as in Example 1, the film was quaternized with ethyl iodide to obtain a quaternized film D and a heparinized film D. Their basic nitrogen contents were 1.08 mml/g and 0.210 mmol/g, respectively. From this result, it can be seen that the quaternization rate is about 82%.

<Comparative Example 2> Acrylonitrile (24 parts)
After thoroughly mixing acrylamide (89 parts) with dimethyl sulfoxide (126 parts), dodecyl mercaptan (0.2 parts) as a chain transfer agent and bromoform as a polymerization initiator were added, and the mixture was heated at a distance of 10 cm from a 100 W high-pressure mercury lamp. By irradiating the polymer with light for 7 hours, the photopolymerized stock solution was poured into a large amount of methanol and precipitated and coagulated to obtain a backbone polymer (24.4 parts). 10 g of the backbone polymer thus obtained was mixed with dimethyl sulfoxide (12
0 parts), added dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate, and photografted by irradiating with light from a 100 W mercury lamp at a distance of 10 cm for 19 hours,
The stock solution was poured into methanol to cause precipitation and coagulation to obtain a graft polymer (12.8 parts). The thus obtained graft polymer was dissolved in dimethylformamide and ethyl bromide was added to quaternize it, and then it was formed into a film (E). Then, in the same manner as in Example 1, the oxygen permeability coefficient, relative coagulation time, complement activity, and water absorption rate were measured. The results are shown in Table 1.

As is clear from the results in Table 1, the polymer of Comparative Example 2 (E), which does not contain polydimethylsiloxane units, has poor gas permeability and activates complement. In contrast, the polymer of Example Complement activity is also suppressed and it has good gas permeability. At this stage, the polymer (D) of Comparative Example 1 has performance comparable to that of the polymer of Examples.

<Example 5> Examples 1 to 3 and Comparative Example 1
, 200 ml of heparinized fluid A to E obtained in 2.
The film was immersed in a physiological saline solution and eluted for 2 weeks while exchanging the physiological saline solution every day. The relative clotting time of the eluted film was measured and the results are shown in Table 2 below.

[0042]

[Table 2]

From the results in Table 1, it can be seen that those in which the total number of carbon atoms in the two alkyl groups in the side chains directly connected to the nitrogen after quaternization are from 7 to 16, show a small water absorption rate, and are not easily absorbed in physiological saline. Although it has good blood compatibility even after 2 weeks of elution, the total number of carbon atoms in the two alkyl groups bonded to the nitrogen after quaternization is 6 or less, and the water absorption rate is low. Since the polymer of the comparative example with a large value has a fast heparin elution, if the immersion time exceeds 3 days, the heparin effect will be completely lost and the polymer will solidify. From the above, it is clear that the polymers of the present invention have good gas permeability and long-term blood compatibility.
