현재, 유방재건술은 수술 재료에 따라 크게 자가조직이식술과 유방보형물 삽입술로 나뉜다. 자가조직이식술은 본인의 조직을 활용해 가슴을 재건하는 방법으로 뱃살, 옆구리, 등 및 엉덩이의 조직을 제거해 유방 쪽으로 이식한다. 자가 조직을 활용하기 때문에 이물감이 덜하며 촉감도 부드럽다. 반면, 수술 시간이 길고 재건할 수 있는 크기가 제한되며 조직이 제거된 부위에 흉터가 남을 수 있다는 단점이 있다.Currently, breast reconstruction surgery is largely divided into autologous tissue transplantation and breast implant insertion depending on the surgical material. Autologous tissue transplantation is a method of reconstructing the breast using one's own tissue. Because it uses autologous tissue, there is less feeling of foreign body and it is soft to the touch. On the other hand, there are disadvantages in that the operation time is long, the size that can be reconstructed is limited, and scars may remain in the area where the tissue has been removed.
유방보형물 삽입술은 보형물을 사용해 절제된 가슴을 복원시키는 방법이다. 수술 부위에 조직확장기를 삽입해 진피 조직을 서서히 늘려 보형물이 들어갈 공간을 확보한 다음, 보형물을 삽입해 볼륨감 있는 가슴을 만든다. 이러한 유방보형물 삽입술은 자가조직이식술에 비해, 수술이 간단하고 시간이 상대적으로 짧으며 추가적인 흉터가 남지 않는다. 그러나, 삽입 후 이물감을 가질 수 있으며, 삽입된 보형물 주위에 두꺼운 피막이 형성되어 점진적으로 주변 근육이 딱딱해지는 구형구축이 발생할 수 있다. 또한, 자가조직에 비해 생착률이 떨어지는 단점이 있다. 특히, 구형구축은 방사선 치료 시 발생할 확률이 높아지는 것으로 보고되어 있다.Breast implant insertion is a method of restoring the removed breasts using implants. A tissue expander is inserted into the surgical site to gradually increase the dermal tissue to secure space for the implant, and then insert the implant to create a voluminous breast. Compared to autologous tissue transplantation, this breast implant insertion is simple, takes a relatively short time, and leaves no additional scars. However, a feeling of foreign body may be felt after insertion, and a thick film may be formed around the implanted implant, resulting in spherical contracture in which the surrounding muscles gradually harden. In addition, there is a disadvantage that the engraftment rate is lower than that of autologous tissue. In particular, it has been reported that the probability of occurrence of spheroid contracture increases during radiation therapy.
이와 같은 단점을 극복하기 위해, 유방보형물을 사용한 후, 상기 유방보형물을 동종 및 이종 진피 조직 유래 세포외기질 등으로 감싸줌으로써 이물감 제거, 구형구축 억제 및 생착률을 증가시키는 방법을 사용한다. 진피 조직 유래 세포외기질은 사람 내지 동물피부로부터 무세포화 기술을 통해 얻어지는 진피층 기질로서, 콜라겐, 엘라스틴 및 피브로넥틴 등으로 구성되어 있는 형태의 피부대체재를 의미한다. 이러한 생체유래 피부대체재는 이식용 장기와는 달리 면역거부반응이 상대적으로 낮은 것으로 알려져 있다. 사람유래 피부대체재와 동물유래 피부대체재의 이식 시 면역거부반응은 일반적으로 사람유래 피부대체재가 생물학적 성능 및 안전성에 대해서 동물유래 피부대체재 보다 우수한 것으로 보고되어 있다. 다만, 사람유래 피부대체재는 사후 기증자로부터 피부조직을 기증받아야 하므로, 동물유래 피부대체재의 원료수급 면에서는 제한이 있을 수 있다.In order to overcome this disadvantage, a method of removing foreign body feeling, inhibiting spheroid contracture and increasing engraftment rate is used by wrapping the breast implant with an extracellular matrix derived from allogeneic and heterogeneous dermal tissue after using the breast implant. The dermal tissue-derived extracellular matrix is a dermal layer matrix obtained through acellularization technology from human or animal skin, and refers to a skin substitute in the form of collagen, elastin and fibronectin. These bio-derived skin substitutes are known to have a relatively low immune rejection response, unlike transplant organs. In general, it is reported that human-derived skin substitutes are superior to animal-derived skin substitutes in terms of biological performance and safety in the case of transplantation of human-derived skin substitutes and animal-derived skin substitutes. However, since human-derived skin substitutes must be donated by a donor after death, there may be restrictions in terms of supply and demand of raw materials for animal-derived skin substitutes.
반면, 유방재건 목적으로는 대부분 동종 진피 조직 유래 세포외기질을 사용하며, 미국의 알로덤(AlloDerm®, 라이프셀), 국내의 슈어덤(SureDermTM, 한스바이오메드), 시지크라이오덤(CGCryoDermTM, 시지바이오) 등과 같은 제품이 있다. 동종 진피 조직 유래 세포외기질에 함유된 콜라겐, 엘라스틴 및 피브로넥틴은 세포의 부착 및 증식을 유도하여 생착을 도와줄 수 있다. 그러나, 유방암 수술 후 시행하는 유방재건술은 일반적인 유방재건술과는 달리, 수술 및 재건 후 환자들의 치료와 재발방지 목적으로 방사선 치료를 병행하게 되는데, 이러한 방사선의 지속적인 조사는 기존 동종 진피 조직 유래 세포외기질 지지체에서 구형구축 및 부피 감소로 인한 형태 유지력 저하를 유발할 수 있다. On the other hand, for the purpose of breast reconstruction, most allogeneic dermal tissue-derived extracellular matrix is used. ), etc. Collagen, elastin and fibronectin contained in the allogeneic dermal tissue-derived extracellular matrix can aid in engraftment by inducing cell adhesion and proliferation. However, in breast reconstruction after breast cancer surgery, unlike general breast reconstruction, radiation therapy is used in parallel with the treatment of patients after surgery and reconstruction and for the purpose of preventing recurrence. It may cause a decrease in shape retention capacity due to spherical contracture and volume reduction in the support.
따라서, 본 발명에서는 탈지방화 및 탈세포화된 진피 조직 유래 세포외기질을 제작한 후, 감마선을 조사하여 유방암 절제 수술 후 행해지는 지속적인 방사선 치료에도 구형구축이 억제되며 부피를 유지하고 형태변화를 최소화하는 유방재건용 이식재 제조방법을 제시하고자 한다.Therefore, in the present invention, spheroid contracture is suppressed, volume is maintained, and shape change is minimized even with continuous radiation treatment performed after breast cancer resection surgery by irradiating gamma rays after manufacturing the delocalized and decellularized dermal tissue-derived extracellular matrix. We would like to present a method for manufacturing a transplant material for breast reconstruction.

The delipidation refers to the removal of lipid components from the dermal tissue.
일 구체예에서, 탈지방화는 탈지질 용액을 사용하여 수행할 수 있다. 상기 탈지질 용액은 극성 용매, 비극성 용매 또는 이들의 혼합 용매를 포함할 수 있다. 상기 극성 용매로는 물, 알코올 또는 이들의 혼합 용액을 사용할 수 있으며, 알코올로는 메탄올, 에탄올 또는 이소프로필 알코올을 사용할 수 있다. 또한, 비극성 용매로는 헥산, 헵탄, 옥탄, 또는 이들의 혼합 용액을 사용할 수 있다. 구체적으로, 본 발명에서는 탈지질 용액으로 이소프로필 알코올(IPA) 및 헥산(Hexane)의 혼합 용액을 사용할 수 있다. 이때, 이소프로필 알코올 및 헥산의 혼합 비율(중량%)은 20:80 내지 80:20일 수 있다.

본 발명에서 단계 b)는 단계 a)에 의해 지질 성분이 제거된 진피 조직에서 세포를 제거하는 탈세포화 단계로, 진피 조직을 탈세포화(decellularization)할 수 있다. 탈세포화는 진피 조직으로부터 세포외기질을 제외한 다른 세포 성분, 예를 들면 핵, 세포막, 핵산 등을 제거하는 것을 의미한다. 본 발명에서는 탈지방화 및 탈세포화를 거친 진피 조직을 무세포 진피로 표현할 수 있다.In the present invention, step b) is a decellularization step of removing cells from the dermal tissue from which the lipid component has been removed by step a), and the dermal tissue may be decellularized. Decellularization refers to the removal of other cellular components other than the extracellular matrix from the dermal tissue, for example, the nucleus, cell membrane, nucleic acid, and the like. In the present invention, the dermal tissue that has undergone delocalization and decellularization can be expressed as acellular dermis.
일 구체예에서, 탈세포화는 탈세포 용액을 사용하여 수행할 수 있다. 상기 탈세포 용액으로 계면활성제 및/또는 염기성 용액을 사용할 수 있다. 구체적으로, 계면활성제로 소듐도데실 설페이트(SDS)와 같은 이온성 계면활성제, 또는 트리톤 엑스-100, 트윈 20, 트윈 40, 트윈 60, 트윈 80, 노니데트 피-10(NP-10), 노니데트 피-40(NP-40) 등과 같은 비이온성 계면활성제 등을 사용할 수 있다. 또한, 염기성 용액으로 수산화나트륨, 수산화칼륨, 수산화암모늄, 칼슘카보네이트, 수산화마그네슘, 수산화칼슘 및 암모니아로 이루어진 그룹으로부터 선택된 하나 이상을 사용할 수 있다. 본 발명에서는 탈세포 용액으로 SDS를 사용할 수 있다. In one embodiment, decellularization can be performed using a decellularization solution. A surfactant and/or a basic solution may be used as the decellularization solution. Specifically, as the surfactant, an ionic surfactant such as sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), or Triton X-100, Tween 20, Tween 40, Tween 60, Tween 80, Nonidet P-10 (NP-10), Noni A nonionic surfactant such as Det P-40 (NP-40) may be used.

또한, 일 구체예에서, 탈세포화 단계는 30 분 내지 10 시간 동안 수행될 수 있다. 상기 시간 범위에서 세포의 제거가 용이하다.Also, in one embodiment, the decellularization step may be performed for 30 minutes to 10 hours. Removal of cells in this time range is easy.
본 발명에서는 단계 b)를 수행한 후, 무세포 진피를 세척하는 단계를 추가로 포함할 수 있다. 상기 단계에서는 멸균 증류슈를 이용하여 세척을 수행할 수 있다. In the present invention, after performing step b), the step of washing the acellular dermis may be further included. In the above step, washing may be performed using sterile distilled shoes.
본 발명에서 단계 c)는 상기 단계 b)에서 세포가 제거된 진피 조직을 감마선 조사하는 단계이다. 상기 단계를 통해 세포가 제거된 진피 조직, 즉, 무세포 진피를 가교 및 멸균할 수 있다. 또한, 가교 및 멸균에 의해 무세포 진피는 체내 이식 후 방사선의 지속적인 조사에도 부피를 유지하고 구형구축을 억제하여 형태 변화를 최소화할 수 있으며, 또한, 염증을 억제할 수 있다.In the present invention, step c) is a step of gamma-irradiating the dermal tissue from which the cells were removed in step b). Through the above step, the dermal tissue from which cells have been removed, that is, the acellular dermis can be cross-linked and sterilized. In addition, by crosslinking and sterilization, the cell-free dermis maintains its volume even after continuous irradiation with radiation after implantation in the body and suppresses spherical contracture to minimize shape change, and also to suppress inflammation.
일 구체예에서, 용어 "멸균"은 무세포 진피 내에 존재하는 전염성 세균들이나 기생충 및 해충 등을 사멸 또는 제거시켜 무균 상태로 만드는 것을 의미한다. 본 발명에서는 열이나 화학약품을 사용하지 않고, 강력한 투과력을 지닌 감마선을 조사하여 온도상승 없이 무세포 진피를 멸균함으로써, 치명적인 전염성 세균들이나 기생충 및 해충들을 완전히 사멸시킬 수 있다. In one embodiment, the term “sterilization” refers to making a sterile state by killing or removing infectious bacteria, parasites, and pests present in the acellular dermis. In the present invention, by sterilizing the cell-free dermis without increasing the temperature by irradiating gamma rays with strong penetrating power without using heat or chemicals, it is possible to completely kill deadly infectious bacteria, parasites and pests.
일 구체예에서, 용어 "가교"는 단백질의 기본구조인 폴리펩티드 사이에 공유결합을 첨가하는 것을 의미한다. 상기 가교에 의해 단백질의 3차원 구조를 유지시키거나 경도를 변형시킬 수 있다. 본 발명에서는 감마선(gamma ray)을 사용한 물리적 가교를 이용함으로써, 단백질의 구성물질인 아미노산의 결합을 증가시킬 수 있고, 가교 효과와 더불어 멸균 효과를 가질 수 있으며, 안정성이 확보되고 잔존물이 남지 않는다는 장점을 가질 수 있다. 이러한 가교의 유무는 전자주사현미경 사진을 통하여 형태학적으로 콜라겐 섬유의 배열과 치밀도를 바탕으로 평가하여 결정할 수 있다. 감마선 조사 전의 무세포 진피는 성기게 배열되고 낮은 콜라겐 섬유의 치밀도를 가지며 불안정한 콜라겐 섬유 구조를 가진다. 여기에 감마선을 조사하면 콜라겐 섬유가 평행하게 배열되며 상기 콜라겐 섬유간의 치밀도가 높아져 안정적인 콜라겐 섬유 구조를 나타내게 된다. 다만, 감마선 조사량이 과도할 경우 무세포 진피의 형태가 유지되지 못하므로 감마선 선량을 알맞게 조절하는 것이 중요하다.In one embodiment, the term "crosslinking" refers to the addition of covalent bonds between polypeptides, which are the basic structure of a protein. The three-dimensional structure of the protein may be maintained or the hardness may be modified by the crosslinking. In the present invention, by using physical cross-linking using gamma ray, the binding of amino acids, which is a constituent of a protein, can be increased, and a sterilization effect can be obtained along with a cross-linking effect, stability is secured and no residue is left. can have The presence or absence of such crosslinking can be determined by evaluating morphologically based on the arrangement and density of collagen fibers through scanning electron microscopy. The acellular dermis before gamma irradiation has a sparsely arranged, low density of collagen fibers and an unstable collagen fiber structure.

인체 진피 조직(조직은행으로부터 비영리 목적의 환자 치료를 위해 기증받은 시신으로부터 채취)을 멸균 증류수로 세척하였다. 세척된 진피 조직을 가위 등을 이용하여 근막 및 지방을 제거하였다. 근막과 지방이 제거된 진피 조직에서 표피 및 시반을 제거하기 위해 0.1M 내지 10M 염화나트륨과 1% 내지 10% 과산화수소로 24시간 동안 처리하였다. 표피 및 시반이 제거된 조직에서 지방을 제거하기 위해 40% 내지 60% 아이소프로필 알코올과 40% 내지 60% 헥산을 이용하여 2시간 동안 처리하였다. 지방이 제거된 조직에 0.1% 내지 10% SDS 용액을 처리하여 세포를 제거하였다. 지방 및 세포 제거가 완료된 세포외기질을 세척하기 위해 멸균 증류수로 2시간 동안 세척하였다. 세척 완료된 세포외기질 지지체는 코발트-60의 감마선을 선원으로 실온에서 0.84 kGy/hr의 선량률로 6 내지 60 시간 동안 5 내지 50 kGy의 선량으로 감마선 조사하여 가교 및 멸균하였다.Human dermal tissue (collected from a cadaver donated by a tissue bank for non-profit patient care) was washed with sterile distilled water. Fascia and fat were removed from the washed dermal tissue using scissors or the like. In order to remove the epidermis and sebum from the fascia and the dermal tissue from which the fat was removed, it was treated with 0.1M to 10M sodium chloride and 1% to 10% hydrogen peroxide for 24 hours. In order to remove fat from the epidermis and tissue from which the scabs were removed, it was treated with 40% to 60% isopropyl alcohol and 40% to 60% hexane for 2 hours. Cells were removed by treating the fat-removed tissue with 0.1% to 10% SDS solution. It was washed with sterile distilled water for 2 hours to wash the extracellular matrix from which fat and cells were removed.

감마선 선량에 따른 지지체의 가교 유무, 멸균 유무 및 형태 유지 유무를 평가하였다. The presence or absence of crosslinking, sterilization, and shape maintenance of the support according to the gamma radiation dose were evaluated.
가교 유무는 전자주사현미경으로 지지체를 촬영한 후 촬영한 사진으로부터 콜라겐 섬유의 배열과 치밀도를 육안으로 확인함으로써 평가하였다. 구체적으로, 지지체 내의 콜라겐 섬유가 평행하게 배열되고 섬유간 치밀하게 배열된 경우 가교된 것으로 판단하였으며, 상기 콜라겐 섬유가 불규칙적이고 또한 성기게 배열되면 가교가 되지 않은 것으로 판단하였다.The presence or absence of crosslinking was evaluated by visually checking the arrangement and density of collagen fibers from the photograph taken after photographing the support with an electron scanning microscope. Specifically, when the collagen fibers in the support are arranged in parallel and densely arranged between the fibers, it was judged to be crosslinked, and when the collagen fibers were irregularly and sparsely arranged, it was judged that the collagen fibers were not crosslinked.
멸균 유무는 대한민국약전 무균시험법을 바탕으로, 진피 조직 유래 세포외기질 지지체의 용출물을 사용하여 배지에서의 미생물의 증식 유무를 육안검사를 통하여 평가하였다.

Specifically, when the gamma-ray dose was 0 kGy, the volume change rates of the scaffold measured at each dose with respect to the volume of the scaffold were 5.5 vol% (10 kGy), 12.4 vol% (20 kGy), and 27.7 vol% (30 kGy), respectively.
