Description

Calcium ion nano regulator for tumor radiotherapy sensitization and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of nano biological medicine materials, in particular to a preparation method of a peptide-based calcium ion (Ca 2+) nano regulator and application thereof in tumor radiotherapy sensitization.
Background
In recent years, the number of cancer attacks and deaths in China rise year by year, and the estimated death cases of the cancers in 2022 China reach five times in the United states, so that the increase of cancer burden seriously affects the social public health safety and the increase of national economy. Radiotherapy is one of three traditional treatments, and plays a significant role in clinical treatment of tumors, and more than 70% of cancer patients receive radiotherapy or radiotherapy combination treatment. However, the problems of radiation resistance caused by tumor tissue heterogeneity, normal tissue damage caused by radiation, and the like are always bottlenecks that are difficult to break through by various radiation treatment means. Therefore, development of a radiotherapy sensitizer capable of specifically improving the radiosensitivity of tumor cells and reducing damage of normal tissues has important significance for improving the curative effect of radiotherapy.
Tumor cells can develop tolerance through a variety of mechanisms during radiotherapy to circumvent direct and indirect damage caused by radiotherapy. Among them, endoplasmic reticulum stress caused by irradiation is one of the main causes of radiation therapy resistance in tumorigenesis. Specifically, calmodulin on the endoplasmic reticulum binds to tyrosine kinase in the presence of Ca 2+ causing a downstream series of signaling, ultimately protecting cells from ROS induced damage by radiotherapy by up-regulating the apoptosis regulator molecule MCL. The endoplasmic reticulum, which serves as the most important storage site for Ca 2+ within cells, is tightly regulated in tumor cells to maintain Ca 2+ homeostasis within the cytoplasm. Therefore, disruption of Ca 2+ homeostasis in tumor cells would theoretically amplify the ROS damage caused by irradiation, hopefully reversing tumor tolerance to radiation.
At present, a plurality of research teams design nano materials loaded with Ca 2+, and the purpose of destroying Ca 2+ steady state in tumor cells is achieved by transporting exogenous Ca 2+ to the tumor. For example, tan et al report a core-shell structured nanomaterial (ti 2 @cap) that specifically releases Ca 2+ in an ultrasonically activated acidic tumor microenvironment, inducing mitochondrial dysfunction (ANGEW CHEM INT ED ENGL 2021, 60:14051), and Zheng et al report a multi-channel Ca 2+ nano-modulator (CaNM CUR+CDDP) that, upon entry into tumor cells, significantly inhibited proliferation of tumors by burst release of Ca 2+ while inhibiting Ca 2+ efflux in combination with cisplatin-induced multi-stage destruction of mitochondria (Adv Mater 2021, 33: 2007426.). However, this transport of exogenous Ca 2+ not only places special demands on the carrier, but often causes abnormal activation of normal tissues such as muscles, nerves, etc. In fact, the gradient of extracellular Ca 2+ concentration (1-1.5 mM) versus cytoplasmic Ca 2+ concentration (about 100 nM) differs by more than 10000 times. Therefore, the disruption of Ca 2+ steady state by introducing endogenous high-concentration extracellular Ca 2+ into the cell is a safe and convenient strategy, and can avoid the damage to the organism caused by the introduction of the calcium-based nanomaterial. On the one hand, the maintenance of the tumor cytoplasm Ca 2+ steady-state depends on Ca 2+ channels such as transient receptor potential vanillic acid receptor 1 (TRPV 1) and the like which are highly expressed on the surface of a cell membrane to regulate the inflow of Ca 2+. On the other hand, tumor cells can also regulate Ca 2+ content in the cytoplasm by precisely controlling Ca 2+ release channels on the endoplasmic reticulum, such as fish ni Ding Danbai (RyR). Therefore, designing tumor intervention strategies targeting TRPV1 and RyR is expected to jointly achieve disruption of cytoplasmic Ca 2+ homeostasis by "intracellular Ca 2+ influx" in combination with "endoplasmic reticulum Ca 2+ release" to effectively reverse radiotherapy tolerance. Vanilloid, such as Capsaicin (CAP), is a typical TRPV1 agonist that can cause Ca 2+ to flow into cells by activating TRPV 1. RyR is very sensitive to intracellular redox due to its enrichment with cysteine, and Nitric Oxide (NO) can be inactivated by nitrosylation modification of the thiol group of cysteine, causing Ca 2+ to be released from the endoplasmic reticulum to the cytoplasm. In addition, the peptide-based nanomaterial has the advantages of simple preparation, easiness in multi-module modification, good biocompatibility and the like, and has a wide application prospect in drug delivery. Therefore, the invention aims to take self-assembled polypeptide as a framework, simultaneously adopts tumor microenvironment responsive chemical bonds to respectively connect CAP and NO, and prepares the Ca 2+ nanometer regulator capable of inducing Ca 2+ in tumor cells to have unbalanced steady state through a molecular self-assembly technology, and the regulator is used as a radiotherapy sensitizer to reverse the tolerance of tumors to radiotherapy.

(1) Critical assembly concentration determination 10. Mu.L of Nile Red working solution (1X 10 -6 mol/L) was added to the bottom of the brown EP tube and dried in a 60℃oven for 2 h. Then hydrogel with the concentration of 2 mg/mL is prepared according to the method of example 4, the hydrogel is subjected to gradient dilution, the hydrogel solution 1 mL after gradient dilution is respectively taken and added into a dried EP tube containing nile red, the ultrasound is 30 and min, and the mixture is left to stand at normal temperature for overnight, so that the hydrogel and the dye are fully mixed. The next day uses a fluorescence spectrophotometer to detect the solutions with various concentrations from low to high, the detection wavelength is 560-720 nm, the step length is 5 nm, the voltage is 650V, and the solution concentration corresponding to the change of the absorption peak is recorded.
(2) Microcosmic appearance observation A hydrogel with a concentration of 5 mg/mL was prepared according to the method of example 4, 10. Mu.L of the prepared hydrogel was pipetted and dropped onto a transmission electron microscope copper mesh and left to stand for 2min, then the excess gel was blotted with filter paper, and the negative dye was performed for 2min with uranyl acetate, and after drying, the microcosmic appearance was observed under a transmission electron microscope.
Referring to FIG. 3A, the critical assembly concentration of CAP-GA-GFFpY-Pen-NO is about 181.5 mu M, which indicates that the assembly can be carried out at a lower concentration, and the assembly has good enzymatic self-assembly performance. Further observing the microscopic morphology by a transmission electron microscope, as shown in fig. 3B, the microscopic morphology of CAP-P-NO is a compact three-dimensional network nanofiber structure.
Example 6
GSH-responsive NO release and weak acid-responsive CAP release, as follows:
(1) GSH-responsive NO Release A hydrogel CAP-P-NO was prepared at a concentration of 5mg/mL according to the method of example 4, and 100. Mu.L was pipetted into a clear penicillin bottle as the sample to be tested. 50. Mu.L of PBS containing GSH (0. Mu.M, 2. Mu.M, 10 mM) was added to the hydrogel surface and the penicillin bottles were placed in a 37℃incubator. 50. Mu.L of the supernatant was pipetted into a 96-well plate at a predetermined time point, 50. Mu. LGriess reagent 1 and 50. Mu. LGriess reagent 2 were sequentially added, and after thoroughly mixing, the absorbance of the solution at 540 nm was measured with an enzyme-labeled instrument, and the NO release rate was calculated from the concentration-absorbance standard curve. Note that the same volume of fresh PBS containing GSH was added after each supernatant removal.
(2) Weak acid responsive CAP Release hydrogel CAP-P-NO was prepared at a concentration of 5mg/mL according to the procedure of example 4 and 200. Mu.L was pipetted into a clear penicillin bottle as the sample to be tested. 50. Mu.L of PBS of different pH (7.4, 6.5) was added to the hydrogel surface and the vial was placed in a 37℃incubator. After 50. Mu.L of supernatant was pipetted at a predetermined time point and thoroughly mixed with 50. Mu.L of methanol, HPLC detection was performed, and the CAP release rate was calculated from the concentration-peak area standard curve. Note that fresh PBS at ph7.4 or 6.5 was added to the same volume after each supernatant removal.
FIG. 4A shows the cumulative release profile of NO under various conditions, showing that NO is gradually released from CAP-P-NO over time, and that the release rate has a significant GSH concentration dependence. After 24h incubation with PBS alone or GSH (2. Mu.M), CAP-P-NO released less than 20% of the NO. Under GSH (10 mM) condition, the NO release speed is obviously accelerated, and the accumulated NO release rate of CAP-P-NO after 24 hours is up to 95%.
The CAP cumulative release profile of CAP-P-NO is shown in FIG. 4B, which shows that about 36% of CAP is released after 16 h of CAP-P-NO at pH 7.4. And at pH of 6.5, the release speed of CAP is obviously accelerated, and the cumulative release rate of CAP after 16 h is up to more than 96%.
Example 7
ICP-MS measures intracellular and mitochondrial Ca 2+ content as follows:
After incubating pancreatic cancer Panc-1 cells with CAP-P-NO (50 μm) or pure PBS for 4h, the cells were digested, centrifuged, collected and counted, and the intracellular Ca 2+ content was determined by ICP-MS after the same number of cells were taken out from each group. For determination of intra-mitochondrial Ca 2+ content, pancreatic cancer Panc-1 cells were incubated with CAP-P-NO (50 μm) or pure PBS for 4: 4h, and after digestion, centrifugation, cell collection and counting, the same number of cells were taken from each group to extract mitochondria using a mitochondrial extraction kit, after which digestion was performed and the Ca 2+ content was determined by ICP-MS.
Referring to FIG. 5, after the CAP-P-NO was reacted, the Ca 2+ content in the cells and mitochondria was significantly increased, 1.66 times and 3.07 times, respectively, compared to the blank group, demonstrating that CAP-P-NO has significant intracellular Ca 2+ steady state destructive power.
Example 8
The clone formation experiment evaluates the radiotherapy sensitization effect of CAP-P-NO, and the steps are as follows:
(1) Pancreatic cancer Panc-1 cells were seeded at a density of 500 per well in 12-well plates and incubated 24: 24h in a CO 2 incubator;
(2) The medium was replaced with fresh serum-free medium with/without CAP-P-NO (25. Mu.M) and incubation was continued for 12 h;
(3) The culture medium is replaced by fresh complete culture medium, then different doses of gamma-ray irradiation (0, 2, 4, 6 Gy) are given, and then the culture is continued for about 7 days;
(4) When the colony grows to the macroscopic size, dyeing the colony with 0.25% crystal violet ethanol solution;
(5) Shooting and counting the clone groups, and calculating the radiotherapy sensitization ratio according to the number of the clone groups.
As shown in FIG. 6, which shows the clone formation image (A) and the cell survival curve (B), the number of the clone clusters of CAP-P-NO and PBS groups was almost unchanged without irradiation, and a significant decrease in the clone cluster number was observed after CAP-P-NO pretreatment, and the proliferation of cells was significantly inhibited after low dose (2 Gy) irradiation, demonstrating that the sensitivity of the tumor cells to radiotherapy was significantly improved after the Ca 2+ steady state was disrupted by CAP-P-NO. Further, the radiotherapy sensitization ratio of CAP-P-NO is 1.58 which is far higher than that of the commercially available radiotherapy sensitizer sodium glycididazole (1.17) through calculation of a cell survival curve.
