Description

Preparation method of microporous structure polycaprolactone/polyethylene glycol-poly-racemic lactic acid composite microspheres and injectable soft tissue filler
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of medical cosmetic soft tissue filling, in particular to a preparation method of a polycaprolactone/polyethylene glycol-poly-racemic lactic acid composite microsphere with a microporous structure and an injectable soft tissue filler.
Background
With the development of the medical beauty industry, injectable soft tissue fillers are more and more widely concerned, and the injection of the soft tissue fillers can realize the beauty effects of repairing nasolabial folds, filling temples, enlarging cheeks, improving statutory lines, filling mandibles, tightening contour lines of the chin and the like. At present, sodium hyaluronate (hyaluronic acid HA), which is the most commonly used injection filling material in the beauty industry, HAs a good filling effect, but because the degradation speed of hyaluronic acid is high, patients generally need to repeatedly inject the hyaluronic acid every 6 months or so.
In recent years, soft tissue filling products prepared from polycarbonate biodegradable polymers poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) and Polycaprolactone (PCL) make up for the defects of short curative effect, high treatment frequency and unnatural effect of HA products. The curative effect of the polycarbonate product is generally about 1 to 2 years, and especially the curative effect of the PCL product can reach more than 5 years. When the PCL is used as a medical cosmetic filling material, the PCL is usually required to be prepared into micron-sized microspheres, and then the microspheres are injected into deep tissues of the skin through an injector, then the M2 type polarization of macrophages in the skin immune system is excited by the PCL microspheres through self foreign body reaction and 6-hydroxyhexanoic acid released in the degradation process of the PCL microspheres, the M2 type polarized macrophages can highly express related cytokines such as TGF-beta (transforming growth factor) and further induce fibroblasts to accelerate collagen secretion, and finally the tissue filling effect on the injection part is achieved. However, since PCL is degraded slowly at the initial stage of implantation into skin tissue, the skin improvement effect of patients at the initial stage of treatment is not obvious, and the skin improvement condition of most of the treated patients is gradually developed after 6 to 8 weeks after the treatment.
At present, the PCL microspheres are mainly prepared by an oil-in-water single-phase emulsification method, the polycaprolactone microsphere filler containing vitamin C and the preparation method thereof are provided in the prior art, and the vitamin C is loaded in the PCL to prepare the PCL microspheres by the oil-in-water single-phase emulsification method. Since vitamin C is a skin whitening ingredient and loaded in PCL microspheres does not affect the tissue filling effect of the microspheres, the effect of the PCL microspheres at the initial stage of tissue filling is not improved. The prior art also provides a polycaprolactone microsphere filler containing collagen peptide and a preparation method thereof, the microsphere prepared by compounding collagen and PCL can improve the treatment effect of the PCL microsphere at the initial stage of tissue filling, but because most of the collagen used in the current medical market is animal-derived, the polycaprolactone microsphere filler has higher sensitization and immunogenicity risks. Meanwhile, because collagen is only dissolved in a water phase solvent and is completely insoluble in an oil phase solvent, the microsphere needs to be prepared by a method for constructing double emulsion, the preparation process is too complex, the cost is high, the amplification production is not facilitated, at least more than two emulsifiers are usually required to be introduced in the preparation process, the product purification difficulty is high, the biological safety is poor, and the application of the microsphere in the field of beauty treatment is limited.
In addition, the PCL microspheres prepared by the emulsification method reported at present generally have a smooth and compact structure on the surface. According to literature reports, macrophage polarization induced by foreign body reaction is mainly dependent on the size and surface microstructure of foreign bodies, and M2 type polarization of macrophages is more easily caused by implants with rough surfaces and porous structures. On the other hand, on the mechanism of stimulating collagen regeneration by releasing 6-hydroxyhexanoic acid, the PCL material with a rough surface and a porous structure has a higher specific surface area, and after the PCL material is implanted into skin tissue, the contact area of the PCL material with the high specific surface area and tissue fluid is larger, so that the degradation of the PCL material and the release speed of the 6-hydroxyhexanoic acid are faster at the initial stage of implantation, and the effects of stimulating collagen regeneration and tissue filling are better.

Fig. 1 shows a schematic flow diagram of a method of preparing an injectable soft tissue filler according to one embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, the preparation method comprises:
step S110, mixing the microporous polycaprolactone/polyethylene glycol-poly-racemic lactic acid composite microspheres prepared by the preparation method with a sterilized auxiliary material solution to obtain a mixed solution, wherein the mass percentage of the polycaprolactone/polyethylene glycol-poly-racemic lactic acid composite microspheres in the mixed solution is any one of 10-50%;
and step S120, subpackaging the mixed solution to obtain the injectable soft tissue filler.
According to the scheme of the embodiment of the invention, the microporous polycaprolactone/polyethylene glycol-poly-racemic lactic acid composite microspheres are prepared by an oil-in-water single-phase emulsification method, an oil phase solution in the oil-in-water single-phase emulsification method is a dichloromethane solution of polycaprolactone and polyethylene glycol-poly-racemic lactic acid or a chloroform solution of polycaprolactone and polyethylene glycol-poly-racemic lactic acid, and an emulsifier is polyvinyl alcohol, so that the polycaprolactone/polyethylene glycol-poly-racemic lactic acid composite microspheres with a porous structure can be obtained. Because the polycaprolactone/polyethylene glycol-poly-racemic lactic acid composite microspheres are in a porous structure, compared with the solid microspheres in the prior art, the microspheres with the porous structure have lighter mass and apparent density, so that the stability of the microspheres in a further prepared liquid preparation can be greatly improved. Prior to the present application, the skilled person was not aware of the possibility to improve the stability of microspheres in further prepared liquid formulations by preparing microspheres of porous structure and that there is no technical solution how to prepare microspheres of porous structure. Moreover, the inventors have not realized that such excellent stability in application to liquid formulations would be so excellent, that the stability would be well beyond the expected effect, after preparation of microspheres to obtain such porous structures, thus obtaining unexpected technical effects. Meanwhile, the polyethylene glycol-poly-dl-lactic acid block copolymer is a medical grade auxiliary material approved by FDA, has the characteristics of good biological safety and no immunogenicity, the degradation rate of poly-dl-lactic acid in the copolymer in vivo is high, and the degradation product lactic acid has excellent effect of stimulating the regeneration of fibroblasts and collagen in the skin, thereby effectively making up the defect of poor immediate treatment effect of the single-component polycaprolactone microsphere filler. Meanwhile, the polyethylene glycol-poly-dl-lactic acid has excellent solubility in an oil phase solvent dichloromethane or trichloromethane, so that the preparation of the microspheres can be carried out by a simple oil-in-water single-phase emulsification method, the preparation process is simple to operate, the production cost is low, the production efficiency is high, and the method is suitable for industrial large-scale production.
In one embodiment, in the preparation method of the microporous polycaprolactone/polyethylene glycol-poly-racemic lactic acid composite microsphere, the intrinsic viscosity of polycaprolactone in the oil phase solution is any value of 0.5-1.0dl/g, for example, 0.5dl/g, 0.6dl/g, 0.7dl/g, 0.8dl/g, 0.9dl/g or 1.0 dl/g. The polycaprolactone can be directly purchased in the market and also can be prepared by the existing preparation method, so that the polycaprolactone with the intrinsic viscosity is selected as a raw material, and the raw material source is wide and convenient. The mass concentration of the polycaprolactone may be 5 to 20%, for example, 5%, 8%, 10%, 12%, 15%, 18%, or 20%. The concentration of the polycaprolactone can be 0.01g/mL, 0.02g/mL, 0.05g/mL, 0.1g/mL, or 0.3g/mL, or any other concentration value from 0.01 to 0.3 g/mL. For a polycaprolactone raw material with a molecular weight, the low PCL acid concentration can effectively reduce the agglomeration phenomenon among PCL/PEG-PDLL composite microspheres in the emulsification process, so that the average particle size of the prepared composite microspheres is smaller.
The polyethylene glycol-poly-racemic lactic acid in the oil phase solution is a polyethylene glycol monomethyl ether-poly-racemic lactic acid diblock copolymer or a poly-racemic lactic acid-polyethylene glycol-poly-racemic lactic acid triblock copolymer. The molecular weight of polyethylene glycol in the oil phase solution is in any value of 2-10KDa, and can be 2KDa, 3KDa, 5KDa, 6KDa, 8KDa, 9KDa or 10 KDa. The molecular weight of the poly-racemic lactic acid in the oil phase solution is any value of 1-5KDa, and can be 1KDa, 2KDa, 3KDa, 4KDa or 5KDa, for example. The mass concentration of the poly-racemic lactic acid is 0.01 to 5%, and may be, for example, 0.01%, 0.05%, 0.1%, 0.5%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, or 5%. The concentration of PEG-PDLLA in the oil phase solution may be 0.0025g/mL, 0.005 g/mL, 0.01g/mL, 0.02g/mL, or 0.05g/mL, or any other concentration value from 0.0025 to 0.05 g/mL. The high PEG-PDLLA concentration can ensure that the composite microspheres have better lactic acid generated by initial degradation and better collagen regeneration stimulation effect after being implanted into organisms.
The aqueous phase solution in this oil-in-water single-phase emulsification method is a solution obtained by dissolving the aforementioned emulsifier in ultrapure water. The volume ratio of the oil phase solution to the water phase solution is any ratio of 1:4-1:20, for example, 1:4, 1:8, 1:10 or 1:20, or any ratio of 1:4-1: 20. The lower the volume ratio of the oil phase is, the smaller the number of emulsion droplets dispersed in the water phase is, the less the emulsion droplets are easy to agglomerate, and further the stability of the emulsion is better, so that the average particle size of the prepared composite microspheres is smaller.
In the aqueous solution, the molecular weight of the polyvinyl alcohol is 10-100KDa, for example, 10KDa, 20KDa, 50KDa or 100KDa, or any one of 10-100 KDa. The mass concentration of the polyvinyl alcohol is 0.5 to 3%, and may be, for example, 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, 2%, 2.5%, or 3%. The high PVA concentration can effectively reduce the agglomeration phenomenon among the PCL/PEG-PDLL composite microspheres in the emulsification process and improve the stability of the microsphere emulsion, so that the average particle size of the prepared composite microspheres is smaller.
