Description

Seal Oil-Based Lipid Emulsion And Its Use
Technical field
The present invention relates to lipid emulsion system field, and relate to the sea dog oil base lipid emulsion that is used for parenteral administration specifically.
Background technology
The lipid emulsion is widely used as the basis of total parenteral absorption (TPN) infusion solution, and being used for can not provide heat and necessary fat acid with the patient that oral route is accepted nutrition to those.For example, in the sixties in 20th century, Intralipid is just developed in Europe Intravenous lipid emulsion, and to 1975 the approval use in the U.S..The lipid emulsion that is used for parenteral use of present commercially available acquisition is made up of vegetable oil (such as soybean oil or safflower oil), emulsifying agent (such as the egg phosphatide class), G ﹠ W.The emulsion of these commercially available acquisitions comprises Liposyn And LiposynII (Abbott Laboratories); Travemusion (Baxter Healthcare) and Soyacale (Alpha Therapeutics).
The biochemical progress of lipid has confirmed that how unsaturated the biology of Omega-3 (ω-3) and Omega-6 (ω-6) aliphatic acid is essential.Aliphatic acid characterizes with the number of two keys and by the position of first pair key with respect to molecule methyl end by the C atom that they had.Thus, what name C18:2 ω-6 represented is the aliphatic acid with 18C atom and 2 two keys, and first double bond position is in the 6th C atom from the methyl end.Polyunsaturated fatty acid is important as the film of setting up Biochemical processes blocking-up and modulator.Biologically most important ω-6 aliphatic acid is arachidonic acid (AA; C20:4) and precursor, linoleic acid (C18:2).Alpha-linolenic acid is the parent material of long-chain omega-fatty acid eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), clupanodonic acid (DPA) and DHA (DHA), and these long-chain omega-fatty acids are the essential fatty acids in the human body.As the precursor in high biological activity eiconaoids synthetic, AA and EPA affect inflammatory reaction (Burton JL.Lancet, 1989,433-5) and immunology resistance (Endrers S, Deng, Eur J Clin Invest, 1995,25:629-38) and angiocardiopathy (Burr ML, Deng, Lancet, 1989,2:757-61; Hu FB, etc., JAMA, 2002,287 (14): 1815-21), disorders of lipid metabolism, thrombosis process and neoplastic disease (Jeeski LI, etc., Pro Soc Exp Biol Med 1995,210:227-33; Tevar R, etc., J Parenter Enteral Nutr, 2002,26 (5): 285-9; BarberMD, etc., Nutr Cancer, 2001,40 (2): 118-24; Senzaki H, etc., WorldRev Nutr Diet, 2001,88:117-25).(for example skin lesion of some clinical symptoms, growth is ended, kidney is degenerated and metabolic rate increases) and the shortage of ω-6 aliphatic acid relation (Caldwell M.D. is arranged, Human essential fatty acids deficiency:A reviewin fat emulsion in parenteral nutrition.Meng H.C. and Wilmore D.W. (eds.) Chicago, IL:Amer.Med.Assoc.P.24,1978).
Epidemiological study (it shows the relation between food fat content and the angiocardiopathy generation) thinks that polyunsaturated fatty acid is that prevention is effective.In this content, the omega-fatty acid of finding in marine oil is according to proving useful especially.Recently, people recognize, keep the balance between the consumption of ω-3 and ω-6 aliphatic acid, are necessary to the protectiveness pharmacological effect of realizing these aliphatic acid.ω-3 is 1 with the ratio of ω-6 aliphatic acid: 2-1: the 4th, recommend (Helmut G. etc., JPEN, 1994,18:417-421).
As mentioned above, the lipid emulsion of most of commercially available acquisition is obtained from vegetable oil.It is dual being obtained from the relevant defective of vegetable oil with emulsion.At first, vegetable oil lacks omega-3 unsaturated fatty acid, and secondly, the vitamin K that contains significant quantity in the plant is (for example, at Intralipid And LiposynII 10% emulsion in, the concentration that it is found that vitamin K1 is respectively 30.8 and 13.2 micrograms/dL).Vitamin K is one of key factor in the blood clotting process and may makes surgical procedure become complicated thus, particularly concerning the patient who accepts anticoagulant therapy.
Along with replenishing parenteral absorption with omega-fatty acid, present studies show that under some clinical condition, can draw various protectiveness effects 10,11, people develop fish oil base lipid emulsion, Omegaven (Fresenius Kabi), and allowed on the European market, to use.Omegaven Be 10% Fish Oil Emulsion, it contains the omega-fatty acid EPA and the DHA of high degree.Many biology beneficial effects according to the show all with use Omegaven Be related, comprise LTC 5Producing increase, platelet aggregation reduction, immunologic function raising and oedema formation slows down.With Omegavene With basic lipid emulsion such as Intralipid Intravenous is bestowed the ratio of the ω-3 with ω-6 aliphatic acid that also provide best simultaneously.
Yet, contain very small amount of omega-fatty acid DPA in the fish oil.The same with polyunsaturated fatty acid EPA and DHA, DPA is that nutrition is important, and about 1/3rd of the long-chain omega-fatty acid that circulates in the blood of human body all belongs to DPA.Recent studies confirm that in fact EPA can change into DPA in vascular wall, and DPA is a potent agent under these environment originally.Though believing EPA usually is key factor in producing prostaglandin, wherein prostaglandin makes the arterial wall softness and does not contain atheromatous plaque, and this studies show that DPA can be that 10-20 doubly more has effect than EPA in this regard.DPA can play strong effectively anti-arteries and veins gruel type factor (the Schiefenneier M.﹠amp that activates thus; Yavin E., J Lipid Res, 2002,43 (1): 124-31; Hansen JB, etc., J Lipid Res, 2000,41 (9): 1376-83).
Another potential defective of using fish oil in the lipid emulsion is that the method for extracting fish oil depends on steam or heating at present, and it makes the omega-fatty acid oxidation.High temperature also has the acceleration omega-fatty acid is isomerizated into trans geometry from its natural cis geometry possibility.Oxidation and trans-fatty acid all are harmful to the health of human body.
Therefore, still need a kind of lipid emulsion, it contains omega-fatty acid EPA, DPA and the DHA of high degree, the oxidation and the trans-fatty acid of low content vitamin K and low ratio.
This background information is that the applicant believes that these information and the present invention have the relevance of possibility for the purpose of making Given information provides.There is no need to admit also should not be interpreted as aforesaid any information constitutes prior art of the present invention.

The component of lipid emulsion
According to the present invention, the emulsifying agent that the lipid emulsion contains seal oil and is dispersed in water. Emulsion can also contain annexing ingredient, such as antioxidant, and chelating agent, buffer, assistant for emulsifying agent, permeability (osmolality) improver, nertralizer etc., they are used for improving stability, uniformity and/or other characteristic of emulsion.
Compare present obtainable fish oil base emulsion, the more stable and resistance to oxidation more of sea dog oil base lipid emulsion of the present invention. In addition, contain essential fatty acid clupanodonic acid (DPA) in the seal oil base emulsion, its in the fish oil base emulsion only to exist on a small quantity.
1. seal oil
Lipid emulsion of the present invention contains seal oil as the inner core lipid. The sea dog of various kinds all is suitable as the source that described emulsion is used oil. In one embodiment of the invention, oil derives from harp seal (harp seal).
As mentioned above, at present contain the oil that derives from plant or contain fish oil as the inner core lipid in the obtainable lipid emulsion that is used for the treatment of purposes. Seal oil provides the many advantages that surpass fish oil or vegetable oil. For example, major part derives from the oil of plant all has the useful omega-fatty acid of low content and the vitamin K of relative high-load, and contains the omega-fatty acid of high-load and the vitamin K of low content in the seal oil. In addition, the omega-fatty acid content of seal oil is higher than the content that exists in fish oil, and for example, the omega-fatty acid content of harp seal oil is generally about 20-35%. In addition, the most of omega-fatty acid in the seal oil is in occupation of the 1st and the 3rd of substituted glycerol three ester molecules, and is identical with the position in the people, and the omega-fatty acid in the fish oil mainly occupies the 2-position. Therefore, this replacement mode of seal oil can allow the recipient absorb better lipid in the emulsion, because the lipid of seal oil more is similar to endogenous lipid.
With regard to the content of omega-fatty acid, seal oil contains the ratio of higher DHA (DHA)/eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) than fish oil, and the more cholesterol of not expecting and the saturated fatty acid of low content. In addition, contain the essential fatty acid clupanodonic acid (DPA) of significant quantity in the seal oil, and the content that it exists is very low in fish oil. Be fit to very much in the seal oil of therapeutic purposes in preparation, above-mentioned characteristic gives seal oil superior liquid properties in addition, so that the semisolid that its unlikely formation can occluding vascular.
According to the present invention, the seal oil that is used for using as emulsion inner core lipid is highly purified and contains the polyunsaturated fatty acid, particularly omega-fatty acid of high concentration. It is high that ratio ω-6 aliphatic acid of the omega-fatty acid that contains in this oil is wanted.

8.1. the influence of the comparison oil droplet granularity of lecithin and seal oil
As previously mentioned, the oil droplet granularity is one of feature of emulsion.We find that the surfactant (lecithin) that uses is influential to the granularity of formed oil droplet.As shown in Figure 1, along with the ratio of lecithin with oil reduces, the oil droplet granularity increases.
8.2.pH influence to surface charge
Electric charge on the known oil droplets has influence to the stability of emulsion.High electric charge repels oil droplet each other.As a result, oil droplet can stop the long period in emulsion.The use zeta potential defines the electric charge on the oil droplets.Measure the seal oil emulsion under condition of different pH zeta potential and the results are shown in Fig. 2.This result confirms: along with the pH increase of emulsion, zeta potential increases.
8.3.pH to snperoxiaized influence
Contain polyunsaturated fatty acid in the seal oil, they are easy to peroxidating.Oxidation of fat acid is relevant with cancer, angiocardiopathy and inflammatory process.For the oil that contains unrighted acid, primary concern be the peroxidating problem of aliphatic acid.The degree of known peroxidization and/or speed are subjected to the influence of many factors, comprise pH.Estimate pH to the influence of the peroxide of seal oil emulsion and the results are shown in Fig. 3.The result shows: when the pH of emulsion was~7 or pH<3, peroxidization was slow.More peroxidization takes place when pH is between 4-6.
Based on The above results, selecting PB to control emulsion pH is 7.Used K 2HPO 4Concentration be 2.5mM.Under this pH, find that zeta potential is in the 35-42mV scope.Though the PB of higher concentration can increase buffer capacity, it also can increase the ionic strength of solution, thereby can cause the quick reduction of zeta potential, and this does not expect.
8.4 antioxidant and chelating agent are to the influence of peroxide
Fig. 4 has shown when vitamin E (as antioxidant), EDTA and vitamin E/EDTA do not exist together or exist, the peroxidating result of seal oil emulsion.The result shows that EDTA and vitamin E all can reduce peroxidization significantly.The combination of EDTA and vitamin E is very effective.According to reports, the transition metal ions such as the Cu that have trace in the lecithin (from egg or soybean) 2+And Fe 3+Known these metal ions are superior catalyst to oxidation reaction.It is believed that the chelating agent such as EDTA can form complex compound with metal ion.As a result, the reaction of ion institute catalysis is suppressed.Yet, in the product of waiting to be infused in patient's blood plasma, exist a large amount of EDTA not expect.For finding out the MEC of EDTA in seal oil lipid emulsion, the EDTA of the different amounts of test.It is found that, when the concentration of EDTA is higher than 2 * 10 -6During M, peroxidization is eliminated (Fig. 5).Therefore, all seal oil latex products are selected this concentration.The concentration of vitamin E is 0.02%, itself and Fish Oil Emulsion (Omegaven ) numerical value be identical.
