Description

Tofacitinib citrate calcium carbonate lipid nano-spray as well as preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of medicines, in particular to a calcium carbonate lipid nano spray containing tofacitinib citrate and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Alopecia areata is a sudden, non-scarring inflammatory alopecia disease which is clinically common in dermatology and is generally characterized by rapid and complete hair loss in one or more well-defined circular or oval areas. The prevalence rate of alopecia areata is about 1-2%, the alopecia is more common in young and strong years, and the psychological, working and social activities of patients are greatly influenced. Current treatment options for alopecia areata include drug therapy, photochemotherapy and bioimmunotherapy, but the above treatment options also have some drawbacks in the treatment of alopecia areata. For example, oral or topical administration of the sebaceous steroid clobetasol propionate may cause epifolliculitis and rare adverse reactions such as skin atrophy, and the epifolliculitis and the rare adverse reactions are easy to relapse after stopping administration; photochemotherapy, such as psoralen in combination with ultraviolet a (PUVA) therapy, has significantly promoted hair regrowth in bald areas in some studies but with high recurrence rates, and long-term use results in unacceptably high uv accumulation; immunotherapy such as topical application of antrocin can lead to irritant dermatitis, require long-term maintenance of the therapy, have limited efficacy, and the like.
The etiology of alopecia areata is currently not completely understood, and may involve a combination of genetic susceptibility and environmental cues, with evidence supporting the etiology as an autoimmune mechanism predominating, and it is believed that disruption of the immune privileged function of the hair follicle is one of the important pathogenesis. In alopecia areata patients, the inflammatory factor IFN- γ plays a major role in this disease process, and this pathway is mediated by JAK kinases, and therefore JAK inhibitor therapy represents a new treatment option for alopecia areata, and only barretinib (JAK inhibitor) is currently approved for alopecia areata indications. Tofacitinib (TFB) belongs to one of JAK inhibitors, and was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in the treatment of moderate-severe rheumatoid arthritis with methotrexate intolerance or poor response in 2012.
Therefore, there is a need for a medicament and a preparation thereof for effectively treating alopecia areata.

Namely four repair groups: a blank group, an interferon-gamma treatment group, a tofacitinib citrate solution group and a tofacitinib citrate amorphous calcium carbonate lipid nano-spray group; four protection groups: a blank group, an interferon-gamma treatment group, a tofacitinib citrate solution group and a tofacitinib citrate amorphous calcium carbonate lipid nano-spray group; adding a blank culture medium into a blank group in the repair group for incubation for 6 days, treating the hair follicles by using interferon-gamma for 4 days to induce immune collapse, and then respectively adding the blank culture medium, the tofacitinib citrate solution and the amorphous calcium carbonate lipid nano-spray sample B prepared in the example for incubation for 2 days; the treatment modes of the hollow white group and the repairing group in the protective group are the same, the hair follicles of the other three groups are treated by using a blank culture medium, a tofacitinib citrate solution group and a tofacitinib citrate lipid nano-spray for 2 days respectively, and then interferon-gamma is added into each group for 4 days. After the treatment of the protection group and the repair group is finished, the hair follicles are taken out to be embedded and frozen into slices, and the immunohistochemical fluorescent staining is carried out to detect the expression of MHC-I molecules. The results are shown in fig. 6, and it can be seen from the graph that the tofacitinib citrate amorphous calcium carbonate lipid nano-spray group or tofacitinib citrate solution group does not repair damaged hair follicles, but can protect the hair follicles from IFN-gamma damage, which is of great significance for preventing alopecia areata.
Example 9: influence of tofacitinib citrate amorphous calcium carbonate lipid nano-spray on cyclophosphamide-induced alopecia areata model mouse hair regeneration
The amorphous calcium carbonate lipid nano-spray sample 3B containing tofacitinib citrate obtained in the step 4 of the example 3 is taken as a sample to examine the influence of the sample on the hair regeneration of mice of a cyclophosphamide-induced alopecia areata model.
20C 57BL/6 mice (7 weeks old, female, body mass 18 + -2 g, provided by Wuhan disease and control center), were anesthetized by intraperitoneal injection of phenobarbital sodium, shaved with a shaver, and the depilated area was 2cm × 3cm, followed by applying depilatory cream to the depilated area, and after waiting for 2min, washed with PBS. After shaving, when the skin on the back of the mouse begins to turn black, the normal control group (4 mice) is not treated, the mice in the other groups are injected with 150mg/kg of cyclophosphamide in a single dose abdominal cavity, and the hair on the head and the back of the mice begin to fall after 4-5 days, so that the serious hair fall is successfully induced, and the animal model for long-term baldness at birth is prepared. The model mice are randomly divided into 4 groups, each group comprises 4 mice, namely a model group, a tofacitinib citrate solution group (solution group), a commercially available tofacitinib citrate oral group and a tofacitinib citrate amorphous calcium carbonate lipid nano-spray group (lipid nano-carrier group). The model group, the tofacitinib citrate solution group and the tofacitinib citrate amorphous calcium carbonate lipid nano-spray group are respectively and locally administered with physiological saline, 1% (w/v) tofacitinib citrate solution group, 0.1mL of each of 1% (w/v) tofacitinib citrate amorphous calcium carbonate lipid nano-spray sample B, and the commercially available oral group is intragastrically filled with 3% (w/v) tofacitinib suspension 1mL (the tofacitinib tablet is prepared into 3% (w/v) suspension by using 0.9% NaCl as a solvent), and the change of the back hair of the mouse is observed by photographing for 21 days after continuous administration. Finally, analysis was performed using Image J, and data were quantified for black hair regrowth on day 21 of dosing and scored. The scoring standard is grade 0: no new black hair regeneration; stage 1: the new hair black accounts for 0-20% of the total area of the alopecia; and 2, stage: regeneration of 20-40% of black hair; and 3, level: 40-60% of new black hair regeneration; 4, level: 60-80% black hair regeneration: and 5, stage: 80-100% of black hair regeneration.
The results are shown in FIG. 7a, where the rates of blackening of hair growth were as follows: the normal group > tofacitinib citrate amorphous calcium carbonate lipid nano-spray group > commercial oral group > model group, which shows that the tofacitinib citrate amorphous calcium carbonate lipid nano-spray group after molding has better hair regeneration effect in a mouse alopecia areata area than the tofacitinib citrate amorphous calcium carbonate lipid nano-spray group and the commercial oral group, and proves the superiority of the amorphous calcium carbonate lipid nano-carrier; after 21 days of administration, the result of the black hair regeneration score of the mice is shown in figure 7b, the normal group is more than or equal to the tofacitinib citrate amorphous calcium carbonate lipid nano-spray group, the commercially available oral group, the tofacitinib citrate solution group and the model group, after treatment is finished, the black hair regeneration score of the mice with the tofacitinib citrate amorphous calcium carbonate lipid nano-spray group is close to that of the normal group, and the effect of the amorphous calcium carbonate lipid nano-carrier group is better than that of the commercially available oral group, which shows that the tofacitinib citrate amorphous calcium carbonate lipid nano-spray has better hair regeneration induction effect on cyclophosphamide induced alopecia areata model mice.
