Description

Photothermal immune nanofiber, and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of biomedicine, and particularly relates to a photothermal immune nanofiber, and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
In recent years, the tumor immunotherapy is rapidly developed, and a powerful weapon is provided for the treatment and the attack of malignant tumors. However, at present, the mild regulation effect can only exert 20% of treatment effect in clinical application, so that the combination of the immune regulation and other treatment modes becomes a main strategy for improving the clinical treatment effect. The photothermal therapy is a simple-to-operate and biologically safe therapy mode, and the treatment method utilizes a photothermal reagent to rapidly convert heat of absorbed light energy to cause local high temperature of tumor focus and realize necrosis or apoptosis of tumor cells. Based on this, the photothermal-immune combination shows unique advantages in the treatment of malignant tumors. On the one hand, phototherapy can achieve rapid ablation of a subject tumor; on the other hand, the immune regulation can play a long-acting inhibiting role in the processes of tumor later-stage diffusion, metastasis, recurrence and the like, and the two treatment modes are combined, so that the life cycle of a patient can be prolonged, the life quality of the patient can be improved, and even the tumor is expected to be radically treated.
The selection of photothermal agents in combined photothermal and immune therapy is one of the core problems. For example, the preparation and application of a biliverdin-based photothermal reagent (CN 109224073A) are disclosed, and the biliverdin organic micromolecules with biological endogenous and near infrared absorption verify the effectiveness of the biliverdin organic micromolecules in photothermal therapy, but for deeper tumor therapy, the treatment wavelength of the pigment molecule needs to be further modified to prolong.
Another central issue in combined photothermal and immune therapy is the choice and design of the immune molecules. In clinical preclinical experiments at present, the selection of immunoregulatory molecules is often protein macromolecules with complex structures, and the macromolecules have the problems of poor cell penetrability, high immunogenicity, unclear side effects, complex synthesis and the like in the application process. Therefore, the search for small molecules with high activity, clear structure and clear action path is a scientific problem to be solved urgently; in addition, for the coupling of immune molecules and other treatment modes, different active medicines are often encapsulated or injected in a front-back separated mode, and the lower medicine encapsulation concentration and the large auxiliary material dosage and the complicated injection and treatment modes limit further application.
Therefore, in the field, it is expected to search for photothermal and immune small molecules with high efficacy, and adopt a simple method to realize organic integration of the photothermal and immune small molecules, and finally achieve the purpose of combined enhancement of curative effects in the process of tumor treatment.

preparing a near-infrared cyanine IR806 aqueous solution with the volume mass concentration of 2mg/mL; preparing a histidine-phenylalanine-isoleucine tripeptide solution with the volume mass concentration of 4mg/mL by using a NaOH aqueous solution with the molar concentration of 0.1mol/L as a solvent; mixing and uniformly dispersing 500 mu L of histidine-phenylalanine-isoleucine tripeptide solution and 500 mu L of near-infrared cyanine IR806 aqueous solution, and adding 0.1mol/L of HCl aqueous solution to adjust the pH value of the mixed solution to 7.2; and aging the mixture at 4 ℃ in the dark for 24 hours to obtain the histidine decarboxylase inhibitor peptide-near infrared cyanine IR806 nanofiber, wherein the molar ratio of the histidine decarboxylase inhibitor peptide to the near infrared cyanine IR806 is 3.4.
The histidine decarboxylase inhibitor peptide-near infrared cyanine IR806 nanofiber provided in this example was characterized by transmission electron microscopy, and the results are shown in fig. 8, which shows that the nanofiber has uniform morphology and a fiber diameter of less than 50nm.
Comparative example 1
Respectively preparing thymopentin aqueous solution with volume mass concentration of 2mg/mL and indocyanine green aqueous solution with volume mass concentration of 0.1 mg/mL; adding 500 mu L of thymopentin aqueous solution into 500 mu L of indocyanine green aqueous solution, mixing and uniformly mixing (the concentration of the indocyanine green is 0.05 mg/mL), and adjusting the pH value of the mixed solution to 7.2 by using 0.1mol/L NaOH aqueous solution; and (3) ageing for 24h at 4 ℃ in a dark place to obtain a thymopentin-indocyanine green mixed solution, wherein the molar ratio of thymopentin to indocyanine green is 23.3.
The thymopentin-indocyanine green mixed solution provided in comparative example 1 was characterized by a transmission electron microscope, and the result is shown in fig. 9, it can be seen that a sphere-like assembly structure is formed and a fibrous structure is not formed because the concentration of indocyanine green is lower than 0.1mg/mL, the hydrogen bonding sites with thymopentin are low, and the hydrophobic effect is strong.
Comparative example 2
Respectively preparing 24mg/mL thymopentin aqueous solution and 6mg/mL indocyanine green aqueous solution; adding 500 mu L of thymopentin aqueous solution into 500 mu L of indocyanine green aqueous solution, mixing and uniformly mixing (the concentration of the indocyanine green is 3 mg/mL), and adjusting the pH value of the mixed solution to 7.2 by using 0.1mol/L NaOH aqueous solution; and (3) aging for 12h at 25 ℃ in a dark place to obtain a thymopentin-indocyanine green mixed solution, wherein the molar ratio of thymopentin to indocyanine green is 4.7.
The thymopentin-indocyanine green mixed solution provided in comparative example 2 was characterized by a transmission electron microscope, and as a result, as shown in fig. 10, it can be seen that due to the fact that the indocyanine green concentration is too high (> 2 mg/mL), the self-polymerization effect is obvious, and most of the dispersed system is irregular aggregates, and no fiber structure is formed.
Comparative example 3
Preparing an indocyanine green aqueous solution with the volume mass concentration of 0.2 mg/mL; preparing a histidine-phenylalanine-leucine tripeptide solution with the volume mass concentration of 10mg/mL by taking a NaOH aqueous solution with the molar concentration of 0.1mol/L as a solvent; mixing and uniformly dispersing 500 mu L of histidine-phenylalanine-leucine tripeptide solution and 500 mu L of indocyanine green aqueous solution, and adding 0.1mol/L HCl aqueous solution to adjust the pH value of the mixed solution to 7.2; and aging the mixture at 4 ℃ in the dark for 24 hours to obtain a histidine decarboxylase inhibitor peptide-indocyanine green mixed solution, wherein the molar ratio of the histidine decarboxylase inhibitor peptide/the indocyanine green is 125.4.
Fig. 11 is an optical photograph of a mixed solution of histidine decarboxylase inhibitor peptide and indocyanine green obtained in this comparative example, and it can be seen from fig. 11 that, due to the excessively high molar ratio of the histidine decarboxylase inhibitor peptide to the photothermal agent, the peptide molecules form precipitates due to their weak interactions, such as hydrophobic interaction, which are not favorable for the co-assembly with the photothermal agent.
