Description

Shape memory polymer material for esophagus stent and preparation and application methods
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of high polymer materials, and particularly relates to a shape memory polymer material for an esophagus stent, and a preparation method and an application method thereof.
Background
The esophagus cancer is a high-grade cancer in China, and the five-year survival rate of patients is lower than 15%. Esophageal stenting is an important treatment for patients with advanced esophageal cancer in a palliative manner. However, most of the conventional esophageal stent materials used in clinical practice are metal materials, and the esophageal stent materials can bring great pain to patients due to high rigidity after being implanted into human bodies. Metal stents are difficult to degrade and face the problem of being difficult to correct and retrieve once released in the human body. In addition, the traditional esophageal stent only can play a simple supporting role, can only relieve the narrow disease of the esophagus in a short time, is difficult to achieve the purposes of adjuvant therapy and inhibition of the regrowth of esophageal tumors, and has a limited effect on the improvement of the survival rate of patients.
The shape memory polymer material has wide application prospect in the fields of human tissue engineering and biomedicine, has the advantages of soft texture, high elasticity, high cost performance and the like, and is an ideal material for replacing a rigid esophageal stent. In addition, the shape memory polymer stent prepared by adopting the degradable material can be automatically degraded in a human body, so that the problem that the metal stent is difficult to recover is solved. The cross-linked network structure of the polymer is also beneficial to loading drug molecules, so that the polymer scaffold material has the effects of auxiliary treatment and tumor and pain inhibition while playing a mechanical supporting effect. However, most of the shape memory materials reported at present have more defects, which make them difficult to be applied to human body. First, the shape memory response temperature of most shape memory polymer materials is far higher than the normal body temperature of human body, so that the materials can not be triggered to expand by themselves after being implanted into the human body to realize the support of esophagus. The use of additional heating means both risks heat damage to the patient's tissue and increases the complexity of the stent implantation process. Secondly, the shape memory behavior of most current shape memory materials is irreversible, which makes it difficult to make precise adjustments of the implant site once the material triggers self-deployment after implantation into the body.
Therefore, the preparation of the polymer esophageal stent material which is degradable, self-expandable in human body environment, adjustable in implantation position and capable of slowly releasing the drug is a problem to be solved urgently.

Application of shape memory polymer material prepared by preparation method of shape memory polymer material
Use of a shape memory polymer material in an esophageal stent.
The examples of the invention are as follows:
example 1
331.0mg of polytetrahydrofuran diacrylate, 220.4mg of polyethylene glycol diacrylate, 45.8mg of pentaerythritol tetra-3-mercaptopropionate, and 5.5mg of benzoin dimethyl ether were dissolved in 1.1ml of chloroform solution. And after the uniform transparent precursor solution is obtained by ultrasonic treatment, injecting the precursor solution into a transparent mold, removing bubbles, and sealing. And (3) placing the mould under a 365nm ultraviolet lamp for crosslinking polymerization for 1.5h, taking the completely crosslinked polymer out of the mould, and drying the polymer in a drying oven at 40 ℃ in vacuum to constant weight to obtain the triple shape memory polymer material with the human body temperature response bidirectional reversible shape memory and the human body temperature and water response.
The polytetrahydrofuran diacrylate used in this example had a molecular weight of 2900g/mol and a melting point of 26.0 ℃. The molecular weight of the polyethylene glycol diacrylate used is 4000g/mol, the melting point is 56.3 ℃. FIG. 3 shows the DSC temperature rise curves of the polytetrahydrofuran diacrylate and the polyethylene glycol diacrylate used. As shown in FIG. 4, the shape memory polymer prepared exhibited two separate crystalline phases with two melting points. The lower melting point is 12.7 ℃, which is lower than the body temperature of a human body, the higher melting point is 40.6 ℃, which is higher than the body temperature of the human body, the crystalline phase with the melting point lower than 37 ℃ in the polymer network can be used as a driving phase of the two-way shape memory, and the crystalline phase with the melting point higher than 37 ℃ can be used for constructing the polymer anisotropic network and the internal stress.
The tensile stress-strain test is carried out on the shape memory polymer prepared in the embodiment, and the obtained tensile stress-strain curve is shown in fig. 5, so that the polymer has excellent stretchability and tensile strength, the breaking strain of the polymer exceeds 500%, and the tensile strength of the polymer exceeds 6MPa, which shows that the polymer has good mechanical properties.
FIG. 6 is a two-way shape memory curve of the shape memory polymer prepared in this example, which shows that the sample is elongated by applying a tensile stress to the sample at 75 deg.C, and then cooled to-20 deg.C, the strain is fixed, and the fixed strain remains stable after the stress is removed. Subsequently, the temperature is raised to 37 ℃, and the polymer network undergoes strain shrinkage in the direction of the internal stress due to the melting of the crystalline phase having a melting point below 37 ℃. When the temperature is reduced to-20 ℃ again, the polymer chain segment is oriented and crystallized, the polymer network generates the phenomenon of strain elongation caused by crystallization, and the polymer network generates strain elongation again. With the temperature switching between-20 ℃ and 37 ℃, the polymer exhibits a reversible strain of more than 23%.
FIG. 7 shows the human body temperature, water response one-way triple shape memory behavior of the shape memory polymer prepared in this example. It can be seen from the figure that the shape of the polymer sample with the permanent shape in the strip shape can be fixed in the temporary shape A by crystallization of the polyethylene glycol chain segment after the polymer sample with the permanent shape is shaped at 75 ℃ under the action of external force and the temperature is reduced to 5 ℃, then the polymer is shaped continuously at the temperature, and the polymer sample is fixed in the temporary shape B by inducing crystallization of the polytetrahydrofuran chain segment after the temperature is reduced to-20 ℃. And then heating to 37 ℃ and treating with water to induce the melting of the polytetrahydrofuran crystal phase and the dissolution of the polyethylene glycol crystal phase, so that the shape of the polymer is gradually recovered, and the polymer is respectively recovered to a temporary shape A and a permanent shape to show the temperature and water response one-way triple shape memory characteristics of the human body.
FIG. 8 is a schematic diagram of the two-way shape memory of the shape memory polymer scaffold material prepared in this example when the temperature is raised and lowered between 0 ℃ and 37 ℃ in a cycling manner. As can be seen, the cylindrical polymer stent material can realize reversible shrinkage and expansion through the operation mode of temperature reduction and temperature rise.
FIG. 9 is a schematic view showing the implantation of the shape memory polymer material prepared in this example as an esophageal stent. As can be seen, the polymer stent can fix the polymer in a contracted state by compressing and cooling after loading the drug molecules. The polymer can self-expand when the polymer stent is implanted into a human body and the shape is recovered due to the triggering of the temperature of the human body. Meanwhile, as the water in the human body can enter the polymer, the polymer can swell, and the polymer network is unfolded to release drug molecules, thereby playing the role of inhibiting the pain of patients and the growth of tumors.
FIG. 10 is a flowchart illustrating the in vitro evaluation and operation of the polymer material of this embodiment as an esophageal stent implantation, position adjustment, drug release. The glass tube is used for simulating the esophagus of a patient, white ball-shaped cotton simulates a lesion, and the insertion picture is a side view of the bracket. As can be seen, the polymer stent shaped to a contracted state at-20 ℃ can be easily implanted into the esophagus of a patient. After being implanted into the esophagus, the stent can be unfolded automatically at 37 ℃ and is changed from a contracted state to a cylindrical state to provide support for the esophagus.
The esophageal stent prepared by the invention has a reciprocating regulation function, the stent material can be induced to retract again by cooling to 0 ℃, and the retracted stent can be easily regulated to a proper implantation position by external force. And after the position of the bracket is adjusted, the cold source is removed, and the bracket responds to the temperature response of the human body again to perform self-expansion. And then, carrying out water treatment on the stent to simulate the humid environment of the human esophagus, further unfolding the esophagus after the water treatment, and finally realizing the purpose of compact implantation. In addition, the scaffold should be water-induced to swell, allowing release to the lesion site in the heavy polymer network of drug molecules loaded in the scaffold.
