Description

Particle gel with uniformly distributed pores and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of hydrogel particles, in particular to a particle gel with uniformly distributed pores, and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Particle gel is a viscoelastic hydrogel material composed of high-density stacked tiny particles, and has the unique advantages of injectability, self-healing, macroporous characteristics and the like. The material has wide application prospect in the fields of biological printing, regenerative medicine, drug delivery and the like. Its injectability allows for flexibility in medical applications to be injected into the target area, while its self-healing nature allows for reconnection after injury, preserving structural integrity. The macroporous characteristic of the particle gel has positive effects on the aspects of cell growth, medicine diffusion and the like, and provides powerful support for innovative medical treatment and material research. The sintering of the particle gel is to crosslink gel particles by physical or chemical methods to form a massive macroporous bracket.
The sintered particle gel or the crosslinked particle gel is a material which further strengthens the interaction between particles in the particle gel by physical or chemical action, thereby being beneficial to greatly improving the mechanical properties of the particle gel material. This type of particulate gel exhibits excellent structural fidelity and good integration into host tissue in tissue engineering scaffold applications.
At present, the enhancement of the action of the gel particle units can be achieved in various ways, including chemical covalent crosslinking, metal ion complexation, hydrophilic-hydrophobic action, enzymatic reaction and the like. Compared with reversible crosslinking or physical crosslinking, chemical covalent crosslinking has the advantage of more stable and durable structure, and becomes an important direction of research. However, conventional crosslinking processes often require harsh conditions, such as ultraviolet radiation, photocrosslinkers or organic chemical crosslinkers, which can lead to deactivation of the active ingredient in the particle gel. In recent years, covalent attachment between gel particles has been implemented by introducing "bridging" components into the particulate gel system, a popular particulate gel sintering strategy. However, such introduced components still require the above-mentioned harsh reaction conditions, and self-crosslinking of the "bridging component" may also occur during particle crosslinking, forming local hydrogel blocks, blocking the intrinsic interpenetrating macroporous network of the particle gel, sacrificing the differences in pore characteristics between batches of particle gel, resulting in a reduction in the biological properties of the particle gel.

Connecting the continuous phase, the disperse phase 1 and the disperse phase 2 prepared above with a microfluidic chip through a pipeline; the flow rate of the continuous phase is regulated to 24 mu L/min, the flow rate of the disperse phase 1 is regulated to 2 mu L/min, the flow rate of the disperse phase 2 is regulated to 2 mu L/min, monodisperse hydrogel micro-droplets are prepared by a water-in-oil emulsion dispersion method, after 2 hours of solidification, the microspheres are washed out, and the particle size distribution is 100-130 mu m.
2) Synthesizing high molecular microsphere with surface modified sulfhydryl group:
the thiol-modified hyaluronic acid obtained in preparation example 2 was dissolved in PBS buffer to a concentration of 1wt%; dispersing the polymer microsphere with double bonds on the surface, which is prepared in the step 1), in PBS, and removing the supernatant by 7000rpm for 5min to obtain the microsphere with compact arrangement. The 1wt% thiolated hyaluronic acid solution and the microspheres are mixed according to a volume ratio of 3:1, and stirring for 3h to enable the thiolated hyaluronic acid to be grafted on the surface of the microsphere. Then, 1mL of 0.1wt% DTT (dithiothreitol) was added to conduct a reaction for 12 hours to break the disulfide bond formed in the solution. Finally, adding a proper amount of PBS buffer solution, centrifuging at 7000rpm for 5min to remove supernatant, and washing for 3-4 times to obtain the surface-modified sulfhydryl polymer microsphere.
3) Preparing a particle gel:
The acrylated hyaluronic acid prepared in the preparation example 3 is dissolved in a dispersion liquid of surface modified sulfhydryl microsphere with volume fraction of 60%, the final mass volume concentration of the acrylated hyaluronic acid is 3wt% (w/v), the pH value of the mixed liquid is regulated to 7.0, and the mixture is left to fully react for 2 hours, so that the crosslinked particle gel material is obtained. The finally prepared particle gel can be used as a bio-ink material, and the pattern shown in fig. 5 can be obtained by using the finally prepared particle gel for bio-printing.
Comparative example 1
The dispersion liquid of the polymer microsphere with the surface modified double bonds and a cross-linking agent with multi-mercapto groups are adopted to carry out cross-linking reaction to prepare the particle gel material. The method comprises the following steps:
1) Synthesizing a polymer microsphere with double bonds on the surface:
Step 1) as in example 1;
2) Preparing a particle gel:
Basically, the same procedure as in step 3) of example 1 was followed except that the acrylated hyaluronic acid in step 3) of example 1 was replaced with the thiolated hyaluronic acid prepared in preparation example 2, and the surface-modified thiol-modified polymeric beads in step 3) of example 1 were replaced with the polymeric beads having double bonds on the surface prepared in step 1) described above.
The particulate gel materials obtained in example 1 and comparative example 1 were immersed in indian ink (commercially available under the brand PHYGENE) at room temperature for 1 hour, respectively, and the particle size of the ink particles was 10 -7~10-5 m; subsequently, the two kinds of pellet gel materials were taken out, and after washing with distilled water, the diffusion of the ink pellets inside the two kinds of pellet gels was observed, and the result is shown in fig. 5, wherein example 1 (denoted as pellet gel B in the drawing) is shown in the upper diagram of fig. 6, and comparative example 1 (denoted as pellet gel a in the drawing) is shown in the lower diagram of fig. 6.
It can be seen that comparative example 1 (pellet gel a) still has some transparency, while example 1 (pellet gel B) has been completely saturated with ink. Indicating that the diffusion rate of the ink inside the particle gel a of comparative example 1 is much less than that of the particle gel B of example 1. The cross-linking agent of the particle gel A is a thiolated polymer, and the thiolated polymer is oxidized and self-crosslinked while cross-linking the microspheres to form the particle gel, so that gel blocks can be formed to block the pores of the particle gel, and ink cannot be rapidly diffused into the gel particles in a short time. Finally, the particle gel A has certain transparency after being immersed in ink, while the cross-linking agent of the particle gel B in the embodiment 1 of the invention is a polyvinyl polymer, the polyvinyl polymer cross-linked microsphere forms particle gel, and the polyvinyl does not self-crosslink, so that a uniform porous particle gel material is obtained, and the uniform porous structure enables the ink to rapidly diffuse into the material.
The gel materials obtained in example 1 and comparative example 1 were subjected to rheological test, and the gel time and modulus after gel formation were compared, and the results are shown in fig. 7. The results show that the gel particles A of comparative example 1 are less efficient than those of gel particles B of example 1, and show a longer time to reach equilibrium modulus. In theory, the modulus of the particulate gel a and the particulate gel B should be substantially similar, since the gel particulate materials of both are substantially the same, and the cross-linking agent is also a modified hyaluronic acid material. In practice, however, it is shown from the figure that the modulus of the microgel a of comparative example 1 is continuously higher than that of the microgel B because gel masses are formed inside the microgel a, and the modulus of the gel masses is greater than that of the microgel. This reflects that part of the pores in the microgel a are blocked, i.e., a part of gel blocks are formed, while the crosslinking agent of the microgel B of example 1 is a polyvinyl polymer, and the polyvinyl polymer crosslinked microsphere forms the microgel, and at the same time, the polyvinyl does not self-crosslink, so that a uniform porous microgel material is obtained, so that the interior of the microgel B material is not blocked, uniform particles are formed, uniform pores exist in the interior, and the modulus is lower than that of the microgel a.
