Abstract
The invention belongs to the field of materials, and relates to a macromolecular contrast agent, a preparation method and application thereof. The invention has the advantages that: (1) structural adjustability. The proportion of PEI to CD in the main structure PEI-CD can be regulated to regulate the content of CD, so that the number of sites capable of reacting with AD is regulated. The controllability of the ratio of the PEG to the PLL of the side chain structure adjusts the density of gadolinium and the size of the overall structure. (2) convenience of modification of targeting groups. The bio-orthogonal reaction is environment-friendly and has high reaction speed. The invention utilizes bio-orthogonal reaction to modify the targeting group on the polymer, and has simple reaction.
Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of materials, and relates to a macromolecular contrast agent, a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
In 2020, about 1930 ten thousand new cancer cases are worldwide, and 2840 ten thousand new cancer patients are expected to grow by 47% in 2040 as compared with 2020. Thus, cancer remains a major public health problem worldwide, severely threatening human health, and morbidity and mortality continue to rise. Early diagnosis and treatment would be an effective measure in reducing the incidence of cancer and mortality. MRI technology has become one of the most powerful detection means in clinical diagnosis at present due to the fact that the MRI technology has many outstanding advantages of no ionizing radiation, higher spatial resolution, higher contrast and the like. However, although the spatial resolution of MRI is high, the sensitivity of MRI imaging alone is not high. The overlapping of relaxation times at certain different tissues or tumor sites makes MRI challenging to discover early stage micro-tumors. There is thus a need to use contrast agents to assist imaging to enhance signal contrast and to increase resolution of tissue images. The contrast agent applied to clinic at present has the defects of low relaxation, short circulation time in blood and residence time in tissues, no targeting property and the like, and can not meet the requirement of early diagnosis of tumor.
Beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) is a cyclic sugar formed by connecting alpha-D type glucopyranose units end to end through alpha-1, 4 glycosidic bonds, and CD has a hydrophobic cavity and a hydrophilic surface, and can be used as a host molecule to be combined with inorganic, organic, biological and other guest molecules to form a saturated compound. Cyclodextrin has wide application in the fields of high molecular polymers, macromolecular self-assembly, biomedicine and the like. Macromolecular self-assembly refers to the process of spontaneously forming aggregates of a specific structure or morphology by the polymer under the pushing of non-covalent forces such as water transport, van der Waals forces, hydrogen bonds and the like. And cyclodextrin has low toxicity and good biocompatibility, so that the cyclodextrin is fully utilized in the aspect. Branched Polyethylenimine (PEI) is a dendrimer which has good water solubility, a narrow molecular weight distribution range, a single molecule, i.e. having nanometre dimensions, a multivalent effect, and easy modification of its physicochemical properties by modifying the surface groups. Can be applied to the preparation of macromolecular contrast agents. The macromolecular contrast agent not only can connect the targeting group and the micromolecular contrast agent at the same time and enhance the phagocytic capacity of specific cells so as to improve the specificity of the contrast, but also can connect various micromolecular contrast agents so as to perform various imaging and provide more abundant and accurate information for clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Another group of nude mice was used as a control group to which 100 μl of physiological saline was intraperitoneally injected. After 2 days of further feeding, nude mice were sacrificed by cervical dislocation, organs including heart, liver, spleen, lung and kidney were dissected and collected, immersed in formalin, stained sections were prepared, and placed under a microscope for histological analysis and photographed.

After further feeding for 10 days in the SPF environment, nude mice were sacrificed by cervical dislocation, dissected and collected including heart, lung, liver, spleen, kidney, weighed and recorded sequentially. Then, about 100mg of each organ and tumor was placed in a 4mL centrifuge tube, 1mL nitric acid solution was added, and the mixture was heated to 60℃in a water bath for 1 hour. The solution was transferred to a 15mL centrifuge tube, and 10mL hydrogen peroxide was added and heated in a water bath at 90℃for 1 hour. Acid is removed after complete digestion by heating, and finally water is added for volume fixation to 60mL. 1mL of each sample was taken and the gadolinium content of the solution was determined by ICP-MS. Finally, the average gadolinium content in each organ is calculated and transformedReplaced by the percentage of Injected Dose (ID) per organ, tissue or tumor. The results are shown in FIG. 11. The residual amounts of gadolinium in heart, liver, spleen, lung and kidney were 0.01%, 0.28%, 0.03%, 0.02% and 0.02% per tissue or organ, respectively. These data demonstrate that the prepared macromolecular contrast agent has little long-term residue in major organs and tissues, and can initially meet the in-vivo long-term safety requirements of the contrast agent.
