Description
本发明涉及丝素蛋白微针贴以及医疗材料和医美材料技术领域,具体涉及一种通电后内部孔径增大的丝素蛋白材料的制备方法、采用该制备方法制备得到的电响应型丝素蛋白材料、基于该电响应型丝素蛋白材料的电响应型丝素蛋白微针、具有电致响应性的丝素蛋白胰岛素微针贴片及其制备方法、一种基于上述材料的透皮给药装置。
智能响应性给药领域是当前的材料学以及生物医学的研究热点,基于电场、电流、磁场、光照和机械外力的作用,pH值、温度的改变等刺激可以使得药物响应性递送至体内。然而如何控制给药方式以使得智能响应性给药便捷使用、有效递送以及精确控制给药量面临挑战。
微针透皮给药是一种通过长度小于1mm的微针阵列刺破皮肤表皮层并形成微孔以提高透皮给药效率的方法,可以轻松、无痛、安全且方便地实现药物递送,在智能药物递送领域正在发挥着重要的作用。同时,由于微针阵列在使用过程中附着于皮肤之上,可有效接受外部刺激尤其是电流、电场以及磁场以达到药物的控制释放。
丝素蛋白是一种具备低免疫原性,生物相容性优异且力学性能出色的绿色天然生物基材料。随着现代科学技术的发展,蚕丝已经不仅仅局限于纺织领域,并且已经广泛用于药物递送领域。然而,负载药物的丝素蛋白微针并不具备智能响应性,这是由丝素蛋白的结构所决定的。由于丝素蛋白分子上缺乏相应的刺激响应性基团或响应性基团过少。整体上,纯丝素蛋白并不具备刺激响应性变化,从而无法用来进行智能药物递送。
为了解决上述问题,中国发明专利CN108047466A公开了一种蚕丝微针的制备方法,采用的化学交联剂为戊二醛,然后将化学交联后的丝素溶液制成微针;在制成微针后进行水蒸气处理得到高强度的丝素微针,此微针能够较为容易的刺入皮肤,并可混入大量药物。但是这种微针经过水蒸气处理,内部结构以β-折叠为主,不易发生吸水溶胀行为,从而导致药物释放缓慢,释药率低,缺乏响应性;同时,戊二醛作为交联剂,对人体危害较大,对皮肤和消化系统均会产生刺激。又如中国发明专利CN102580232B公开了一种丝素微针系统和丝素纳米颗粒及其制备方法。此方法制备得到的丝素蛋白微针刺入皮肤后迅速溶解,从而释放纳米颗粒。但是这种微针系统将药物一次性释放至体内,无法控制药物的智能释放和释放量。
电辅助给药,价格便宜且易于执行,可帮助药物克服组织屏障进入体内,其释药机制主要是电穿孔以及离子电渗疗法等,然而这些方法均会使用到一些较大的电流或电场,会带来一定的安全隐患。如何在低电流或电场下在丝素蛋白微针中完成药物的智能响应性传递十分有意义,可以极大地拓展智能给药在人体上精准、便捷及安全化应用。
Gu等人[Nature Biomedical Engineering,2020,4(7):1-8.]开发了一种具有葡萄糖响应性的N-乙烯基吡咯烷酮基微针贴片的方法,所述微针贴片包含经设计用于葡萄糖触发的胰岛素递送的共聚物。这种微针载药量大且具备智能响应效
果,可用于胰岛素闭环递送。然而微针基材使用聚合物材料进行制备,其生物安全性及绿色可持续性较为不足,同时葡萄糖智能响应速度较慢,无法快速响应释放。
又如,Moonjeong等[DOI:10.1038/s41598-020-58822-w]开发了由透明质酸微针组成的多功能系统,作为用于快速局部药物的有效透皮递送。该微针在超声波作用下,声压振动将诱导透明质酸溶解,而交流电离子电渗疗法可改善静电力驱动的透明质酸离子和若丹明的扩散。这种方法药物释放速度快,可以进行快速局部药物递送。然而由于使用较高压电场直接作用于药物或是人体皮肤,这将会带来一定的药物变质风险及人体危害,具有一定的使用局限性。
因此,如何开发一种可通过作用于微针的电响应材料,通过低压电刺激实现材料的快速智能响应性变化,进而控制药物的快速响应释放,完成电响应智能药物释放至关重要。

素含量为10-100mg/g,巯基含量为10-100μmol/g。巯基含量太低,电响应性较小,溶胀度没有太大的变化。另一方面,丝素蛋白分子中的羧基含量是有限的,上述反应条件的控制也是尽量在能够反应的羧基上接入巯基以增加巯基的含量,达到更好的电响应效果和溶胀度的控制。

本发明的反应原理如下:丝素蛋白的巯基化改性是通过将丝素蛋白与半胱胺盐酸盐采用N-羟基琥珀酰亚胺/1-(3-二甲基氨基丙基)-3-乙基碳二亚胺盐酸盐体系偶联反应所制备得到的。在反应起始阶段,1-(3-二甲基氨基丙基)-3-乙基碳二亚胺盐酸盐(EDC)通过与丝素蛋白分子结构中的天冬氨酸和谷氨酸残基上的羧基进行反应形成一种促发剂——不稳定的脲衍生物,然后与N-羟基琥珀酰亚胺(NHS)反应,形成更稳定的酯从而增强碳二亚胺交联产物的水稳定性,同时此时羧基处于被活化状态。在羧基被活化后,半胱胺盐酸盐上的氨基会与此时被活化的羧基发生反应从而形成酰胺键,半胱胺被成功接枝于丝素蛋白分
子之上。同时反应过程中1-(3-二甲基氨基丙基)-3-乙基碳二亚胺盐酸盐和N-羟基琥珀酰亚胺转变成水溶性的脲衍生物,可以在后面的透析过程中取出,以保留丝素蛋白良好的生物相容性。
二硫键的氧化还原电位比较低,表观还原电位在0.6伏特左右,容易发生可逆的氧化还原反应。丝素蛋白接枝上巯基以后,在空气中氧气的存在下,巯基被氧化从而在丝素蛋白分子链间形成二硫键交联点。这种二硫键形成的交联点是可逆的,在还原性条件下会被断开变回巯基,分子链间交联点会断开。在未通电情况下,丝素蛋白分子链间交联程度较高,从而使丝素微针溶胀率较小;而在通电状态下,电流提供了还原性环境,二硫键得到电子发生电化学还原反应,二硫键断开形成巯基,丝素蛋白分子链间共价交联点减少,丝素微针溶胀率增大。这种溶胀度的变化可以通过开关电源的方式来控制。因此获得电响应性丝素蛋白材料,通过对电流的响应,达到控制溶胀度变化的目的,进而可以控制微针中药物的释放速度。
由于采用了以上的技术方案,本发明与现有技术相比具有如下的有益之处:本发明的电响应型丝素蛋白材料的制备方法,制备得到的电响应型丝素蛋白材料能够实现低电压刺激下溶胀度的变化,在通电条件下具备高溶胀特性,在不通电的情况下具备低溶胀特性,进而实现药物的可控释放。

图1为本发明优选实施例2中制备得到的微针贴片的显微镜照片;
图2为本发明实施例2-7所制备的电流响应型丝素蛋白微针贴片在通电与不通电的情况下溶胀度变化图;
