Abstract
The present invention relates to a temperature-controlled pH-dependant formation of ionic polysaccharide gels, such as chitosan/organo-phosphate aqueous systems, and methods of preparation thereof. While chitosan aqueous solutions are pH-dependant gelating systems, the addition of amono-phosphate dibasic salt of polyol or sugar to chitosan aqueous solutions leads to further temperature-controlled pH-dependant gelation. Solid organo-phosphate salts (1-20%w/v) are added and dissolved at low temperature (10°C) within 0.5 to 4.0%w/v chitosan in aqueous acidic solutions. Aqueous chitosan/organo-phosphate solutions are initially stored at low temperatures (4°C), then endothermally gelated within the temperature range of 30 to 60°C. Chitosan/organo-phosphate solutions rapidly turn into gels at the desired gelation temperature. Gelation can be ex vivo within any receivers or molds, or in situ in animals or humans (in vivo) so as to fill a tissue defect or cavity.
Description
DEPENDENT FORMATION OF PH CONTROLLED BY TEMPERATURE OE PELES POLIS TO IONIC ARIDES. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION s. { a) Field of the invention The present invention relates to a temperature-controlled pfH-dependent formation of ionic polysaccharide gels, such as aqueous systems of qososan / organD-phosphate, and methods of preparing them. w < b) Description of the Prior Art £ 1 or, uitosan is a commercially available inexpensive PC, a derivative of chitin or poiifN-acetyl-glucosamine materials). Chitosan is mainly composed of O-glucosamine units, which are generated through Ja 14-15 catalyzed deacetylation of chitin, an insoluble biopolymer extracted from the hard shells of living marine animals. { fish, crustaceans, shrimp, crabs ...) or synthesized by natural organisms. { cigo icitis, fungi ...). It is expected that chitosan has good viscoelastic properties, and has adequate tissue compatibility and biodegradability, which makes it ideal for bioactive and resorbable implants. It is also known that poly-D-glucoamine chains bind potentially to a large number of proteogycan molecules and coexist with fibrous collagens to form aqueous gels. It is believed that the role of the proteoglicans within the gel is to retain water and to provide adequate viscoelasticity. It is expected that the resulting extracellular matrices offer compatible environments for cell proliferation and tissue formation, especially for skin, ligament, bone and cartilage cells. As a consequence, chitosan attracts great interest for the scaffolding or for supporting biodesigned artificial tissue materials. In addition, the derivatives of chitin and partially acetylated qultosan have been extensively investigated for therapeutic substances or implantab.es materials. The biocompatibility of materials based on quttosan has been evaluated specifically for blood, wounds and bone. The immunological and genotoxic activities, as well as the esti ulative effects on the macrophage action, have also been studied with various chitosan materials. Chitosan and its derivatives have been extensively explored for the drug delivery system through gels (Ohya Y- et al. (1993) J- Microßncapsulation, 10 (1): 1-9). It was proposed that the supply of peptides with chitosan be performed nasally. Cationic colloidal drug vehicles were proposed from the chitosan-polycaprolactone systems. Devices for healing and reconstructive wounds made of chitosan materials for open horny D wounds, periodontal and cutaneous tissues have been proposed. Chitosan was evaluated especially in bone and dura and as a hemostatic. The entrapment of living biotopes (cells, enzymes, etc ...) has been investigated with different chitosan products, however, in almost all cases, living cells have been encapsulated within the atginato / chitosan microcuentaß. The encapsulation of chondrocytes (cartilage cells) was proposed within the calcium-alginate / chitosan beads. The gelation of chitosan through polyphosphates has been promoted to encapsulate cells such as neural or musculoskeletal tissues. Generally, the chitosan-in an acid / water medium was loaded with cell suspensions, and the resulting mixture was placed in a penta-sodium phosphate-compensated tri-polyphosphate to form beads and cell-loaded chitosan capsules. The entrapment of neural cells within the chitosan beads gelled by polyphosphate has led to good cell viability but with a low proliferation rate (Ziel ski BA et al. (1994) Bio Ateriats, 15 (13) .1049-1056) . No large materials or specific tri-dimensionai materials were proposed (Zielinski B.A. et al. (1994) Bio aterials, 15 (13); 1049-1056). Polysaccharide capsules have been proposed to physiologically entrap active cells such as Langerhans Islets (US Patent No. 4)., 391, 909). The chitosan / cisplatin mixture of hydrochloride was degraded and proposed as a drug delivery system. Chitosan derivatives have been incorporated into numerous vehicle compositions or drug formulations. Chitosan materials such as wound filling materials or contraceptive products were also proposed (U.S. Patent Nos. 4,956,350 and 4,474,769). Chitosan gels were again reported as supports for immobilizing and encapsulating living biomaterials such as cells, bacteria and fungi (U.S. Patent 4,647,536). They also proposed the systems of
• 3 ophthalmic drug supply of quilosano blends for gelation and in situ formation (U.S. Patent No. 5,422.1 6). In the U.S. Patent No. 4,659,700, chitosan gels were prepared from glycerol / acid / water systems as biodegradable vehicles for drug delivery. HE
reported that the resulting chitosan geies remain fairly stable, keeping their Iri-dimensional form intact during
• Long periods and over a wide range of temperatures, particularly between 4 and 40 ° C. Gels and gel-like materials were processed by dissolving 1.0 to 4.0% w / v chitosan
within acid-water-glycerol solutions where acetic, formic or propionic acid and 10-90% glycerol ratios are preferably used, and when neutralizing with liquid bases such as sodium, ammonium and potassium hydroxides or ammonia vapors . The pH of the resulting materials of chitosan-glycerol is from
approximately 7.0 pH. After neutralization, the resulting mixtures are converted into gels after formation, resulting in such gels of the interaction of chitosan, glycol and water. Apparent glycerol or water were not reported as apparent. However, it should be noted that such tri-dimensional tri-dimensional glycosol gels will only occur when the solution is previously neutralized with a base. The one-dimensional three-dimensional gels can be easily molded as well as the gei-like membranes. The role of the glycerol and chitosan-glycerol component interactions was not clarified. Gels formed in situ with ionic polysaccharides in the U.S. Patent were also proposed. No. 5,567,175. A composition can be used as a medical device for drug delivery, the application of a diagnostic agent, or the prevention of post-operative adhesions, and an aqueous liquid carrier is composed which is capable of gelling in situ. It includes at least one ionic polysaccharide, at least one polymer that forms the film, and a medicament or pharmaceutical agent, water, and optionally, a counter ion capable of gelifying the ionic polysaccharide (U.S. Patent No. 5,587,175). However, gelation is achieved by the interaction between the ionic polysaccharide and the polymer that forms the film, or by degradation of the induced counter ion of the ionic polysaccharide. Other in situ formation gels are based on the polyoxyalkylene composition (U.S. Patent No. 4,165,646) or polyoxyalkylene / polysaccharide mixture (U.S. Patent No. 5,126,141) or alginate / cation in situ mixture (U.S. Patent Nos. 4,165,618 and U.S. Pat. 5,266,326). It would be highly desirable that this be provided with a polysaccharide gel formed dependent on temperature controlled pH which could be used to encapsulate cells and cellular material while maintaining its biological activity.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The q? Itosano is dissolved in acidic aqueous solutions to obtain clear aqueous q? -osan solutions having pH levels within the range of 4.3 to 5.6. Chitosan solutions can be sterilized through filtration or autoclaving by steam, and stored at a low positive temperature (4 ° C). The organophosphate component is added to the chitosan solution, preferably at a low positive temperature (4 ° C), then the aqueous chitosan / organophosphate mixture is gelled thermally, through an endothermic mechanism, within the range of temperature from 30 to 60 * C. Once formed, the resulting chitosan / organophosphate gels are thermally stable when heated. Even IßO ^ C suffices (in an autoclave), particularly in cell culture medium. Bio-encapsulation within chitosan / organophosphate gels is obtained by incorporating the living cells into the aqueous chitosan / organophosphate solution without gelling at a low temperature (4 * C). Then, the temperature of the resulting mixture of chitosan / organophosphate / cells is raised and maintained at 37 ° C where the gelation occurs in 1 hour, the organo-sulfates or the mono-carboxylic acid salt of polyols or sugars play a role. paper similar to organophosphates. Chitosan and its derivatives are relatively cheap and commercially available materials and represent an attractive group of biocompatible and degradable polymers. They have solid or solution properties that can be modified by changing their chemical composition and / or physical-chemical characteristics. It has been shown that the degree of deceleration and low weight greatly influence the properties of solution, enzymatic degradability and biological activity. Chemical modifications, for example, have been proposed to neutralize or modify the chitosan chains by the incorporation of carboxylic acid, acetate, glutamic acid, carboxymethyl or sulfate groups. The chemical degradation (anhydride, glutaraldehyde, succinate of gluta-ato-PEG ...) of chitosan macromolecules induces covalent bonds for

(1992) Bone and Mineral, 17: 15-29). The gelation of chitosan will occur with any grade or purity of glycerophosphate while
the encapsulation of living biologics will require glycerophosphate tested from cell culture. The disodium or calcium aai of alpha-glycerophosphate, or disodium or calcium salt of glycerol-3-phosphate is also an organic salt of biological importance (Chung C.-H et al. (1992) Caldf. Tiss?

The solubilization of chitosan in aqueous solutions
requires the protonation of the amine groups of the chitosan chains, which is achieved within aqueous solutions acidices having a pH ranging from 3.0 to 5.0. When it is solubilized, the chitosan remains soluble until a pH of about 6.2. The neutralization of the acidic chitosan solutions by alkali results in an increase in pH as well as a deprotonation of the amine groups. Neutralization of the acidic chitosan solutions at a pH above the pKa of the chitosan at approximately 6.3-6.4 results in the intersaturation of OH-HN and O-HN and water-chitosan hydrogen bonds, which induce a hydrated three-dimensional network, a chitosan gel. At a pH above 6.3-6.4, the chitosan solutions are systematically found in the normal temperature range (0-60ßG) of the chemosan gels. However, adding an organophosphate to aqueous solutions of chitosan increases the pH of the chitosan / organophosphate solutions, which remains ungelled and liquid for long periods of time even at a pH above 6.5, and up to 7.2. These aqueous neo-neutral solutions of chitosan / organophosphate (pH 6.5-7.2) will gelify when stimulated by a suitable temperature. The gelling time is controlled by the temperature. For example, a solution of chitosan / organophosphate that gels in about 30 minutes at 37 ° C, needs only about 2 minutes at 60 ° C to form a gel. It has been expected that the gelling mechanism as well as the gel characteristics are similar for all chitosan / organophosphate systems. In this way, the gelation of the solutions of chitosan / β-giicerofosfate < 3U € «« has investigated in more detail, can be considered as a typical example. The results that indicate the dependence of pH and the dependence of
The gelation temperature for chitosan / β-glycerophosphate solutions is summarized in the gel-solution diagrams shown in Figures 1 and 2. In addition to the gel strength, the rheological experiments depicted in Figure 3 show only that the gelation of chitosan / ß-? or glycerophosphate solutions occurs when heated. Changes in modules that appear at approximately 60 ° C are symptomatic of the transition
• From Solution to Gei and Gel formation. This temperature for gel formation will depend on the characteristics of the solution and the heating rate (activation energy required). 15 The porous structure of the chitosan / ß-gyicerophosphate gels has been evidenced by Electron Microscopy of
Exploration, as shown in Figure 4. The geos have a typical microstructure with cameras of approximately 100 microns and pores of approximately 10 ichrons. Its microstructure differs from those observed in processed chemose gels by simple neutralization, where a iamin ar architecture was presented. Another important feature concerns the injectability and in vivo gelation of the solutions of healthy quito / β-glycerophosphate. Injections and gels are typically shown in

• 5 sit? in the torso region. In chitosan / organo-phosphate gels, the organo-phosphate anions contribute to the degradation of the macromolecule chains of the chemical, but not in the same way that pure ionic degradation occurs during the gelation of chitosan and by divalent inorganic anions. , such as sulfate, oxalate, phosphate or polyphosphate (pyrophosphates, β-phosphates or tripolyphosphates).
• An aqueous solution of qososan instantly becomes gel in the presence of inorganic divalent anions and independently of the pH value of the solution. Besides, the
The rise in temperature is an unfavorable factor for the gelation of this class of systems. In contrast, the gelation of the chitosan / organophosphate solution depends both on the final pH of the chitosan / organophosphate solution and on the temperature. Each solution of chitosan / organophosphate may not gel,
Any temperature, provided that its pH remains below 6.45, and each solution of chitosan / organophosphate with pH above 6.45 can be prepared at 20 ° C, without immediate gelling and can be stored for a long time at 4 ° C without being converted in gei. At 37 ° C only chitosan / organophosphate solutions with pH
above 6.9 can be set more or less quickly. It is expected that the presence of organophosphate molecules in chitosan elutions will directly affect the electrostatic interactions, hydrophobic interactions and hydrogen bonds of chitosan chains. In this way, the main interactions included in the formation of organo-phosphate chitosan gels are essentially converted; 1) chitosan-chitosan interchain hydrogen bond (CHITOSAN-O.UITGSANE); 2) electrostatic attractions of chitosan / organophosphate between the ammonium groups of macromolecule chains and the phosphate group of the organophosphate molecules (OUITOSANOSPHOSPHATE); 3) hydrophobic interactions qutDsano-quitDsanD induced through the structuring action of the polyol and sugar parts in water molecules. The structuring action of the polyol parts in water reduces the interactions of quitesane-water and therefore improves the interactions of chitosan-chitosan. The non-trivial aspect of such gelification originates essentially from the last hydrophobic interactions of chitosan induced by polyol-ag? A, which improve upon increasing the temperature (temperature-controlled gelling). At low temperatures, strong chitosan-water interactions protect hydrated chitosan macromolecules against aggregations. The removal in the heating of the cover of water molecules favors and strengthens the interactions of chitosan D-chitosan, and therefore induces the association of macromolecules. However, gelation will never occur if the first two attractions (QU1TOSANO-QU1TOSANO &QU1TOSANO-PHOSPHATE) are completely non-operational within the chitosan / organophosphate solution. This explains the pH dependence that still drives the temperature controlled gelation of the kilosan / organophosphate systems. Although such electrostatic attractions of QU1TOSANOSPHATE are present, the phosphate groups may not be the only degrading agent of the chitosan chains due to the non-compatible stearic hindrance. This significantly differentiates this mechanism from the pure ionic gelation of chitosan by divalent phosphate or polyphosphate anions. A pure ionic degradation will not be stimulated or controlled by temperature. This type of pH-dependent gelling, controlled by temperature, is specifically induced by dibasic salt of organic mono-phosphate in chitosan solution, however it can also be induced by other organic salts such as mono-sulfate salts of polyols or sugars, such as poJioJ-suJfatD or sugar-sulfate, or mono-carboxylic acid salts of polyols or sugars. For example, according to the present invention, a solution of chitosan / glucose-1-sulfate is expected to gel as a chitosan / glucose-1-phosphate solution does. It is also an object of the present invention to provide an aqueous solution of chitosan / organophosphate which can be broken down and lowered at low temperature (4ßC) and transformed at physiological temperatures into a stable chitosan / organophosphate gel., tri-dlmensional. It includes non-toxic biocompatible components for mammalian or human environments with both components and processes that have low toxicity effects with respect to living biologics and that preserve cellular viability.

syringe and the chitosan / glycerophosphate solution at a desired temperature, ideally 7 * 0, until the first signs of gelation appear. The ready-to-gel mixture of chitosan / glycerophosphate is then administered to fill the cavities or defects of the tissue and complete the gelation process in situ (a
37 ° C). Without ignition, the injection of chitosan / glycerophosphate solutions is limited by the viscosity of the solutions that control the injectability or extrusibility of the solutions. A needle having a size of 20 and below are ideal materials for the injection of such a gel solution. The body cavities and
tissue defects act as containers for the solution, but the liquid materials remain in an open aqueous environment. The conformation and diffusion capacity of the solutions of chitosan / glycerophosphate depends on the properties of the material and the solution. The increased viscosity results in the in situ formation of more compact and less treatable gels. Encapsulation of living biologics with fumaroles / glycerophosphate gels The organo-phosphate salt selected herein was glycerophosphate, but similar results were achieved with other mono-phosphate dibasic salts, monosulfate salts or monocarboxylate salts of polyols or sugars. Cell materials or living cells were prepared using current cell culture techniques. The cell materials or cells were incorporated and hogented at low positive temperatures ranging from 4 to 2% * C, ideally 20 * C, in the aqueous solution of chitosan / glycerophosphate. Cell materials or cells loaded with mixtures of chitosan / glycerophosphate were poured into the desired receptacles or dishes and incubated at 37 ° C. The middle cell culture supplemented or minimized was added to the dishes or receptacles containing the cellular materials or cells loaded with materials of the cytostat / glycerophosphate to keep the encapsulated living cells alive and etabically active. The cell culture medium was renewed every 2 days following the formation of the chitosan / glycerophosphate gels. The viability of the cells within the solution and the gel is potentially reduced by abnormal osmolarity. The systems of quitoßano / glycerophosphate have changing osmolerities depending on the component dß gticßrofosfato ionic. The higher the content of glycerophosphate salts, the more

In situ injection and gelifcation of the quitoßan / glycerophosphate materials loaded with cellular materials or living cells can be determined in a manner
similar. The cell materials or cells are introduced at a positive low temperature into the aqueous solutions of glycerophosphate chitosan before injection and gelation. There is a direct relationship between glycerol-2-phosphate disodium salt content and osmolarity. To reduce such problems of
In the case of osmolarity, the final pH of the chitosan / glycerophosphate can be adjusted to its desired value while keeping the glycerophosphate content as low as possible. However, a low glycerophosphate content limit must be increased to process temperature-controlled pH-dependent gelation. 20 Therapeutic Use and Other Uses dies Geies Based on Chitosan A glia of chitosan / organophosphate or organD / sulfat, as previously described, is an ideal material for a drug delivery system.

glass were maintained at 60 and 37 ° C and uniform and uniform gelling was observed at 30 minutes at 60 ° C and at 6 hours at 37 ° C (Table 2 and Figure 1). The chitosan and beta-glycerophosphate components individually influence the pH increase within the aqueous solutions and, consequently, influence the transition from Solution to Gei. As well as the dissolved materials, the initial pH of the acetic acid solution / mother liquor also influences the transition from Solution to Gel, but this potential effect seems to be limited by the counter-action of the solubility of the chitosan, which depends on the pH of the solution. the solution.

EXAMPLE 111 Thermal Reversibility of the Gelation of Chitosan / Glycerophosphate Systems A first solution of chitosan / glycerophosphate was prepared from 10 ml of an acetic acid / mother liquor solution of pH 4.0 by the addition and dissolution of 0.200 g of chitosan and 0.800 g of glycerophosphate disodium salt pentahydrate. The resulting chitosan / glycerophosphate solution has a pH of about 7.05 and is heated to 60 ° C, where it rapidly gels. The chitosan / glycerophosphate gel is cooled to a temperature of about 0-4 ° C, but no transition is observed with time and the gel remains stable at 4 ° C. This chitosan / glycerophosphate gel is thermo-irreversible. A second solution of chitosan / glycerophosphate was prepared from 10 ml of an acetic acid / mother liquor solution of pH 4.6 by the addition and dissolution of 0.100 g of chitosan and 0.800 g of glycerophosphate disodium salt pentahydrate. The chitosan / glycerophosphate solution has a pH of about 6, 78 and heated to 60 ° C for gelation, the resulting glycine / g / Phosphate ester was then cooled to a temperature of about 0-4 * C and a transition from GeJ to Solution was observed after a period of time . The gel returned to a liquid solution at low positive temperatures, for example at 4 * C. When this solution was reheated to 60 * C, the reverse mechanism appeared again (transition from Solution to Gel) and a gel formed again. The transition from Solution to Gel to Solution is reproducible between temperatures at 4 and 60 ° C. This chitosan / glycerophosphate gel is thermo-reversible. The thermo-reversibility of the solution to gel transition of the chitosan / glycerophosphate systems is predominantly dependent on the pH of the chitosan / glycerophosphate solution. An example of pH and reversibility observed is given in Lab 3. Experimental observations on the chitosan / glycerophosphate systems have shown that the thermal reversibility of the Gel Solution mechanism changes under a pH of 6.9 in the chitosan / glycerophosphate solutions in the immediate vicinity. A reversible gelation of the chitosan / glycerophosphate solutions occurs when the pH is between 6.5 and 6.9. A very similar result was observed with other dibasic mono-phosphate salts of poiols or sugars such as glucose-1-phosphate salts. Table 3 Effect of pH on Reversibility of Solution to Gel for a
