Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of medicines, in particular to a folic acid sustained-release composition, a folic acid sustained-release preparation and application thereof.
Background
Natural folic acid belongs to the group B water-soluble vitamins of low molecular weight, which has been found to be named: vitamin M and vitamin B9R factor, also known as pteroylglutamic acid, is unable to be synthesized and transformed by human body and almost participates in all biochemical metabolic processes of methylation in vivo. It is present in many plant and animal tissues, mainly in the form of polyglutamate, and is hydrolyzed to monoglutamate by glutamate carboxypeptidase encoded by glutamate carboxypeptidase II gene, and can be absorbed by small intestinal villus epithelial cells. In the last 50 th century, compounds with pteridine-like structure (N- [4- [ (2-amino-4-oxo-1, 4-dihydro-6-pteridine) methylamino had been artificially synthesized due to insufficient intake of natural folic acid]Benzoyl radical]-L-glutamic acid) is dHowever, folic acid, a precursor of folic acid (hereinafter abbreviated as folic acid, with a structure shown in formula I), folic acid deficiency can cause various clinical diseases, such as common folic acid deficiency megaloblastic anemia, neonatal neural tube malformation, and homocysteine which is researched more in recent years.
Folic acid is absorbed in the upper part of the jejunum after Oral administration, and is absorbed more slowly and incompletely due to the presence of more polar groups in the folate structure, which presents a great challenge to therapies that are intended to increase the dose of administered Folic acid (MARTIN A.H, et al, biogauver monograms for Immediate Release Oral Dosage Forms: Folic acid, J Pharm Sci.2017); after the folic acid is orally absorbed, the folic acid is converted into the physiological 5-methyl tetrahydrofolic acid by the dihydrofolate reductase, the tetrahydrofolate reductase and the 5, 10-methylene folate reductase in small intestinal epithelial cells and liver cells in sequence, and the folic acid which is not biologically converted enters a circulatory system and is rapidly discharged by the kidney. Because of the gene polymorphism of the folate convertase, the biotransformation of the enzyme has the characteristic of easy saturation, which results in poor biotransformation capability of part of patients, and when a large dose of drug administration is clinically needed, a large amount of unconverted folic acid enters the circulatory system and is discharged through the kidney. On the one hand, the renal excretion of a large amount of Folic Acid increases the renal burden, which causes the damage of renal function, especially for patients with the defect of renal function, and the renal excretion of a large amount of unconverted Folic Acid also causes the obvious shortage of 5-methyltetrahydrofolic Acid with physiological function in vivo, which may be one of the reasons that some patients have no effect in the clinical extensive use of Folic Acid for preventing the neural Tube malformation of newborn in recent 20 years (Apolline I et al. neural Tube Defects, Folic Acid and methylation. int J.environ.2013,10:4352-4389), especially the modern medical research shows that the family with high incidence rate of neural Tube malformation of newborn, patients with hyperhomocysteine, patients with stroke, patients with myocardial infarction and the like are all related to the metabolic activity of Folic Acid with low enzyme. Clinically, the intake of folic acid is generally expected to be increased, but the clinical effect is not ideal.

Since the folic acid absorption part is positioned at the front end of the jejunum, an obvious absorption window exists, and the common membrane-controlled and skeleton-type folic acid sustained-release preparations obviously cannot achieve the aim of the invention. The invention provides a folic acid sustained-release preparation with high biotransformation, which can be retained in the stomach for a long time, the preparation can control folic acid to be slowly released in the stomach for a long time, the folic acid after being released is absorbed by the front ends of duodenum and jejunum, and is more efficiently converted into 5-methyltetrahydrofolic acid with biological function by corresponding enzyme in the process of passing through small intestinal epithelial cells and liver cells. The method has important significance for improving the biological curative effect of folic acid and reducing the side effect of the kidney.
The beneficial effects of the invention include but are not limited to:
(1) folic acid is a drug with a certain absorption window, and is mainly absorbed at the front end of the small intestine, and the drug with the absorption window is not suitable for being designed into a sustained-release preparation according to the design concept of the sustained-release preparation, but the sustained-release preparation has gastric retention capacity, so that the sustained-release purpose is achieved. The sustained release preparation of folic acid provided by the invention mainly comprises a folic acid release retarder and a retarder for preventing the preparation from being rapidly transported from stomach to intestine, wherein the retarder is mainly a polymer material with proper viscosity, such as hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC), hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC), carbomer, chitosan and the like; and some can swell in the stomach when meeting liquid, reduce the density of preparation itself, can make the preparation unit float in the stomach for a short time, it is called as floating agent for short, this kind of supplementary product mainly includes carbonate such as sodium bicarbonate, sodium carbonate, magnesium carbonate, calcium carbonate, etc., and have high-molecular material of the void fraction, such as high-molecular material such as cross-linked polyvidone of the high void fraction, supplementary product such as cetyl alcohol, octadecanol, stearic acid, glycerin monostearate of lower density characteristic; for well-known reasons, other excipients which are generally required for the formulation, such as talc for anti-adhesive action, aerosil, magnesium stearate for lubricating action, etc. The sustained-release preparation of folic acid can be in the forms of folic acid skeleton tablets, folic acid skeleton pellets, reloading capsules or micro-tablets, reloading capsules and the like from appearance.
(2) The key point of the invention is that the unexpected effect is achieved, the bioavailability of the sustained-release preparation is generally lower than or equal to that of the normal-release preparation, but the bioavailability of the sustained-release preparation is higher than that of the normal-release preparation by taking 5-methyltetrahydrofolic acid as an investigation index, and the bioavailability of the sustained-release preparation is improved by about 1 time in a folic acid metabolic disorder model mouse.
(3) The folic acid sustained-release preparation can replace the existing folic acid to treat clinical indications clinically, such as the treatment of megaloblastic anemia and the prevention of neural tube malformation of newborn, and can also be used for treating other diseases caused by folic acid deficiency or relative folic acid deficiency, such as hyperhomocysteinemia, cerebral apoplexy, cognitive dysfunction and the like. And the existing folic acid dosage form is mainly characterized in that the folic acid sustained-release preparation uses lower dosage than the current common dosage. Compared with the conventional release preparation, the folic acid sustained-release preparation has the same clinical application, the same 5-methyltetrahydrofolic acid level is improved, the folic acid sustained-release preparation has lower dosage or higher improving speed, and the renal function burden of renal excretion increase of a large amount of folic acid can be avoided. Compared with a common-release preparation of folic acid, the medicine is also taken less frequently, and the probability of missing the medicine taken by a patient can be reduced.
Detailed Description
The invention discloses a folic acid sustained-release composition, a sustained-release preparation and application thereof. Those skilled in the art can modify the process parameters appropriately to achieve the desired results with reference to the disclosure herein. It is expressly intended that all such similar substitutes and modifications which would be obvious to one skilled in the art are deemed to be included in the invention. While the methods and applications of this invention have been described in terms of preferred embodiments, it will be apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art that variations and modifications in the methods and applications described herein, as well as other suitable variations and combinations, may be made to implement and use the techniques of this invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
The synthesized folic acid can be converted into 5-methyltetrahydrofolic acid in vivo and participate in biochemical metabolism of various methylation in vivo, and the specifications of the synthesized folic acid on the market at present comprise 0.4mg folic acid tablets and 5mg folic acid tablets. 0.4mg folic acid is mainly used for the neural tube malformation of newborn and the folic acid supplement of pregnant women in pregnancy, and one tablet is generally taken one day; the 5mg standard is mainly used for megaloblastic anemia caused by folic acid deficiency, the usage is 5 mg/time and 3 times/day, and as the megaloblastic anemia has a long treatment period which is generally more than 4 months, and the phenomenon of drug missing is caused by multiple times of daily administration, the sustained-release preparation which can be administered once a day has obvious advantages in the aspects of reducing drug missing and improving patient compliance, so the invention is invented based on the application defects of the existing market products. Meanwhile, folic acid is absorbed in vivo by oral administration and has an absorption window phenomenon, so common sustained-release technical means, such as a membrane-controlled sustained-release technology and a skeleton-type sustained-release technology are difficult to meet the requirement of folic acid sustained release, and the folic acid sustained-release preparation of the gastric retention technology can keep the folic acid preparation retained in the stomach for a long time so as to achieve the purpose of full absorption of the folic acid.
The composition of the present invention is composed of folic acid, a retarder of folic acid release and a retention agent for rapid gastric transit to the small intestine, a foaming agent for assisting the retention of the retarder in the stomach, and a lubricant required for general formulations for known reasons.
The folic acid release retarder and the retarder for preventing the preparation from being rapidly transported from the stomach to the intestine are mainly polymer materials with proper viscosity, such as hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC), hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC), carbomer, chitosan and the like; and some can swell in the stomach when meeting liquid, reduce the density of preparation itself, make the preparation unit float in the stomach briefly, it is called floating agent for short, this kind of supplementary product mainly includes carbonate such as sodium bicarbonate, sodium carbonate, magnesium carbonate, calcium carbonate, etc., and have high-molecular material of the high void fraction, such as high-molecular material such as cross-linked polyvidone of the high void fraction, supplementary product such as cetyl alcohol, octadecanol, stearic acid, glycerin monostearate, etc. of the lower density characteristic; for well-known reasons, other excipients which are generally required for the formulation, such as talc for anti-adhesive action, aerosil, magnesium stearate for lubricating action, etc.

The invention provides a folic acid sustained-release preparation, which has less administration frequency than a normal-release preparation, and is reduced to once a day from 2-3 times a day, unexpectedly, the folic acid sustained-release preparation has a faster 5-methyltetrahydrofolate level lifting rate than the normal-release folic acid preparation, and the drug dosage of the folic acid sustained-release folic acid can be reduced by about 50% compared with the normal-release folic acid sustained-release folic acid in a rat animal model when reaching the same organism 5-methyltetrahydrofolate level.
Since folic acid is mainly absorbed at the front end of the jejunum, it has a distinct absorption window. According to the design scheme of the conventional sustained release preparation, the optimal absorption window of the medicament is missed, for example, the common membrane-controlled and gel sustained release preparation has the medicament release time of more than 6 hours, and the time for folic acid to pass through the optimal absorption window is generally not more than 3 hours. The sustained release preparation adopts a gastric retention technology, and can prolong the retention time of the folic acid preparation in the stomach to more than 6 hours.
The folic acid sustained-release preparation is a pellet or a sustained-release preparation of micro-tablets by utilizing the group drug release characteristics, so that the potential safety hazard caused by the tiny defects of the design of common sustained-release preparations, such as sustained-release tablets, can be avoided.
The sustained-release preparation can be used for patients who need to take folic acid for a long time, such as folic acid-deficient megaloblastic anemia; hyperhomocysteinemia with folate deficiency; and stroke prevention and myocardial infarction caused by homocysteine; folic acid deficiency induced depression and anxiety disorders.

The preparation method is simple and can realize industrial production.
Effect example 2
Since the release is usually slower for general sustained release preparations, but the best site for drug absorption is generally located in the duodenum and anterior small intestine, general sustained release preparations reduce the bioavailability of the drug, or are equally bioavailable, and are unlikely to have higher bioavailability than general sustained release preparations. Folic acid needs to be biologically converted into 5-methyl tetrahydrofolic acid to be effective after oral administration, but the folic acid sustained-release preparation of the invention has faster 5-methyl tetrahydrofolic acid level increase compared with a normal-release preparation so as to greatly exceed the original purpose of folic acid sustained-release preparation design, but the over-expected result can bring extra clinical benefit, namely, less drug is needed for reaching the same clinical curative effect, or better clinical benefit is obtained for the same drug.
In order to verify the clinical significance of the invention, an animal model is designed to verify the creativity of the invention, and the creativity is as follows: taking 40 SD rats, dividing into 2 groups, dividing into a control group and an experimental group, wherein each group comprises 20 SD rats, taking 1ml of blood from tail vein (more than two rats can be taken for mixing), measuring 5-methyltetrahydrofolate in blood serum by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, measuring homocysteine level by enzyme method (5 samples in total), and marking the SD rats as 0 week level; feeding feed with folic acid content of 0mg/kg and succinylsulfamothiazole content of 1%, measuring blood serum folic acid concentration homocysteine level after feeding for 6 weeks, and marking as 6 weeks; 3.6mg/kg of methotrexate was gavaged once a week from week 7, 0.2mg/kg of folic acid suspension (sri-an 0.4mg folic acid tablet 1 tablet (125 mg/tablet) was ground to about 62.5mg/kg of powder and suspended to 1ml with water) was gavaged once a day for the control group, 20mg/kg of the sustained-release pellet of example 7 (containing 0.2mg folic acid) was given once a day for the experimental group, and then the rat serum levels of 5-methyltetrahydrofolic acid (5-MTHF) and homocysteine were measured once a week, labeled 7, 8 and 9, 9 … … 14 weeks, respectively, and the results are shown in Table 13.
TABLE 13 plasma folate and homocysteine levels in rats at different stages (n ═ 5)
From the above table, it can be seen that in 0 weeks, there is no significant difference in the serum 5-methyltetrahydrofolate levels and homocysteine levels of the two groups of rats tested; after the feed which is free of folic acid and contains the intestinal bacterium folic acid synthesis inhibitor is fed for 6 weeks, the 5-methyltetrahydrofolate level of blood plasma is obviously reduced, a hyperhomocysteinemia model is formed at the same time, and the 5-methyltetrahydrofolate level and the homocysteine level of blood serum of two groups of rats which are pre-tested have no obvious difference; after two groups of rats continue to feed methotrexate once a week to cause a similar human folic acid metabolic disorder model, a control group of rats feed a common preparation suspension of folic acid which is equivalent to 0.2mg/kg folic acid every day, and an experimental group feeds a sustained-release preparation which is equivalent to 0.2mg/kg folic acid, namely two groups of rats have consistent administration dosage; by measuring the serum 5-methyltetrahydrofolate level and the homocysteine level of the rats every week, the serum 5-methyltetrahydrofolate level of the sustained-release preparation group rises faster than that of the common preparation suspension of the folic acid from the first week as shown in the table above, and the two groups of rats have statistically significant difference until the serum level of the two groups of rats is consistent from the 12 th week (namely, the 6 th week after administration); meanwhile, the corresponding rat homocysteine level shows more rapid decline from the beginning of administration in the sustained-release preparation group, and the level does not tend to be consistent until two weeks at 11 weeks (namely 5 weeks of administration), so that the sustained-release preparation group has better curative effect.
The folic acid sustained-release preparations prepared in examples 1 to 6 and 8 were subjected to the above-described experiments under the same conditions, and the results of the experiments were not significantly different from the effect data of the sustained-release preparation prepared in example 7 (P > 0.05). The slow release preparation provided by the invention has better curative effect compared with the common folic acid suspension group.
Another 40 SD rats are divided into 2 groups, and the model is made according to the method to obtain the rat model with low-folate hyperhomocysteine. 3.6mg/kg of methotrexate was gavaged once a week from week 7, 0.2mg/kg of folic acid suspension (sri-an 0.4mg folic acid tablet 1 tablet (125 mg/tablet) was ground to about 62.5mg/kg of powder and suspended to 1ml with water) was gavaged once a day for the control group, 25mg/kg of the sustained-release pellet of example 6 (containing 0.1mg folic acid) was given once a day for the experimental group, and then the rat serum levels of 5-methyltetrahydrofolic acid (5-MTHF) and homocysteine were measured once a week, labeled 7, 8 and 9, 9 … … 14 weeks, respectively, and the results are shown in Table 14.
TABLE 14 plasma folate and homocysteine levels in rats at different stages (n ═ 5)
From the above table, it can be seen that the administration dosage of the sustained-release pellet group is 50% of that of the control group (silian folic acid tablet), and the 5-methyltetrahydrofolic acid level is improved and the homocysteine reduction capability is consistent.
The folic acid sustained-release preparations prepared in examples 1 to 5 and 7 to 8 were subjected to the above-mentioned experiments under the same conditions, and the results of the experiments were not significantly different from the effect data of the sustained-release preparation prepared in example 6 (P > 0.05). The folic acid sustained-release preparation group is proved to have double curative effect in a low-folic acid rat model, which further proves the creativity of the folic acid sustained-release preparation.
The foregoing is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, various modifications and decorations can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these modifications and decorations should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
