羊毛防毡缩用蛋白酶的化学修饰

为减少防毡缩整理中蛋白酶对羊毛纤维主体结构的破坏作用,分别研究了戊二醛、微生物谷氨酰胺转氨酶(MTG)和水溶性碳二亚胺(EDC)对蛋白酶Savinase 16L的化学修饰,以期达到增大蛋白酶分子量,从而将水解作用限制在纤维表面的目的。主要通过体积排阻色谱、SDS-PAGE谱图以及荧光光谱研究修饰酶的分子量和结构变化。结果表明,戊二醛不能对蛋白酶分子进行有效修饰;MTG会被蛋白酶水解,无法催化酶分子间发生共价交联;而碳二亚胺既可以使蛋白酶分子间发生交联,又能将含有伯胺基的大分子修饰剂偶联到酶分子上。

Anti-calcification of bovine pericardium for bioprosthetic heart valves after surface modification with hyaluronic acid derivatives

Surface modification of glutaraldehyde fixed bovine pericardium (GFBP) was successfully carried out with hyaluronic acid (HA) derivatives. At first, HA was chemically modified with adipic dihydrazide (ADH) to introduce hydrazide functional group into the carboxyl group of HA backbone. Then, GFBP was surface modified by grafting HA-ADH to the free aldehyde groups on the tissue and the subsequent HA-ADH hydrogel coating. HA-ADH hydrogels could be prepared through selective crosslinking at low pH between hydrazide groups of HA-ADH and crosslinkers containing succinimmidyl moieties with minimized protein denaturation. When HA-ADH hydrogels were prepared at low pH of 4.8 in the presence of erythropoietin (EPO) as a model protein, EPO release was continued up to 85% of total amount of loaded EPO for 4 days. To the contrary, only 30% of EPO was released from HA-ADH hydrogels prepared at pH=7.4, which might be due to the denaturation of EPO during the crosslinking reaction. Because the carboxyl groups on the glucuronic acid residues are recognition sites for HA degradation by hyaluronidase, the HA-ADH hydrogels degraded more slowly than HA hydrogels prepared by the crosslinking reaction of divinyl sulfone with hydroxyl groups of HA. Following a two-week subcutaneous implantation in osteopontin-null mice, clinically significant levels of calcification were observed for the positive controls without any surface modification. However, the calcification of surface modified GFBP with HA-ADH and HA-ADH hydrogels was drastically reduced by more than 85% of the positive controls. The anti-calcification effect of HA surface modification was also confirmed by microscopic analysis of explan ted tissue after staining with Alizarin Red S for calcium, which followed the trend as observed with calcium quantification.     

Chemical modification of hyaluronic acid by carbodiimides.

Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a linear polysaccharide with repeating disaccharide units of glucuronic acid and N-acetylglucosamine and is found in the extracellular matrix of connective tissues. Reaction of high molecular weight sodium hyaluronate (NaHA, MW approximately 2 x 10(6] with EDC at pH 4.75, either in the presence or absence of a primary diamine, gave the N-acylurea and O-acylisourea as NaHA-carbodiimide adducts. None of the expected intermolecular coupling with the amine component was observed. On the basis of this new observation, this method for chemical modification of HA was used in conjunction with new synthetic carbodiimides to prepare HA derivatives bearing lipophilic, aromatic, cross-linked, and tethered functional groups. The degree of conversion to NaHA-acylurea products appears to depend upon both the characteristics of various carbodiimides and the conformational structure of NaHA.     

Cellulose derivative-hyaluronic acid-based microporous hydrogels cross-linked through divinyl sulfone (DVS) to modulate equilibrium sorption capacity and network stability

The aim of this work is to obtain a chemically cross-linked hydrogel from hyaluronic acid and cellulose derivatives that exhibits sensitivity to variation of the composition of the external absorbing medium and an equilibrium sorption capacity higher than a common hyaluronic acid-based hydrogel, in view of its potential use in prevention of postsurgical soft tissue adhesion. This has been achieved by chemical stabilization of hyaluronic acid (HA) and cellulose derivatives, hydroxyethylcellulose (HEC) and carboxymethylcellulose (CMCNa) through the difunctional cross-linker divinyl sulfone. Significant increase in sorption capacity, both in water and in water solutions at different ionic strength, has been observed for these samples in comparison with hydrogels obtained through chemical stabilization of hyaluronic acid. Moreover, different dehydration procedures adopted for the xerogel synthesis have been used, which resulted in a modulation of the equilibrium sorption capacity. Hyaluronic acid stability has been confirmed by means of NMR analysis.     

Aminooxy pluronics: synthesis and preparation of glycosaminoglycan adducts

Novel biomaterials have been prepared in which glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are chemically modified to create amphiphilic multiblock copolymers that are able to adhere to hydrophobic surfaces and can self-assemble into cross-linker-free hydrogels. First, the triblock poly(ethylene oxide)-polypropylene oxide copolymers (Pluronics) were converted into the previously unknown aminooxy (AO) derivatives. Both mono-AO and bis-AO Pluronics (AOPs) were synthesized and fully characterized in order to prepare tetrablock and pentablock copolymers, respectively. Second, the AOPs were coupled to the uronic acid carboxylates of heparin (HP) and hyaluronic acid (HA) using carbodiimide chemistry in order to give the previously undescribed amidooxy GAG derivatives. The coupling chemistry was confirmed using a newly prepared fluorescent AO reagent. Third, AOP-heparin and AOP-fluorescently labeled heparin were shown to adsorb efficiently to polystyrene surfaces, as determined by IL-8 based ELISA and fluorescence measurements, respectively. Fourth, AOP-linked fluorescently labeled HA was shown to adsorb efficiently to plastic surfaces. Finally, three different AOPs were evaluated for self-assembling hydrogel formation by AOP-HA pentablock polymers. In short, AOP-GAG adducts are semisynthetic amphiphilic biomacromolecules that offer a range of valuable practical opportunities for surface modification, preparation of cross-linker-free hydrogels, and formation of self-assembling mimics of the extracellular matrix.     

Fabrication of gelatin-hyaluronic acid hybrid scaffolds with tunable porous structures for soft tissue engineering

The development of three-dimensional (3-D) scaffolds with highly open porous structure is one of the most important issues in tissue engineering. In this study, 3-D macroporous gelatin/hyaluronic acid (GE/HA) hybrid scaffolds with varying porous morphology were prepared by freeze-drying their blending solutions and subsequent chemical crosslinking by using 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC). The resulting scaffolds were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Their swelling, in vitro degradation properties and compressive strength were also investigated. To evaluate in vitro cytocompatibility of scaffolds, mouse L929 fibroblasts were seeded onto the scaffolds for cell morphology and cell viability studies. It was found that the porous structure of scaffolds can be tailored by varying the ratios of gelatin to HA, both the swelling ratios and degradation rate increased with the increase of HA content in hybrid scaffolds, and crosslinking the scaffolds with EDC improved the degradation resistance of the scaffold in culture media and increased the mechanical strength of scaffolds. The in vitro results revealed that the prepared scaffolds do not induce cytotoxic effects and suitable for cell growth, especially in the case of scaffolds with higher gelatin content. The combined results of the physicochemical and biological studies suggested that the developed GE/HA hybrid scaffolds exhibit good potential and biocompatibility for soft tissue engineering applications.

Synthesis and selective cytotoxicity of a hyaluronic acid-antitumor bioconjugate.

A cell-targeted prodrug was developed for the anti-cancer drug Taxol, using hyaluronic acid (HA) as the drug carrier. HA-Taxol bioconjugates were synthesized by linking the Taxol 2'-OH via a succinate ester to adipic dihydrazide-modified HA (HA-ADH). The coupling of Taxol-NHS ester and HA-ADH provided several HA bioconjugates with different levels of ADH modification and different Taxol loadings. A fluorescent BODIPY-HA was also synthesized to illustrate cell targeting and uptake of chemically modified HA using confocal microscopy. HA-Taxol conjugates showed selective toxicity toward the human cancer cell lines (breast, colon, and ovarian) that are known to overexpress HA receptors, while no toxicity was observed toward a mouse fibroblast cell line at the same concentrations used with the cancer cells. The drug carrier HA-ADH was completely nontoxic. The selective cytotoxicity is consistent with the results from confocal microscopy, which demonstrated that BODIPY-HA only entered the cancer cell lines.

Improvement of hyaluronic acid enzymatic stability by the grafting of amino-acids

Injection of hyaluronic acid (HA)-based hydrogels has proven to provide many therapeutic benefits. To increase the stability of HA-based products against enzymatic digestion, we modified hyaluronic acid by grafting various amino acids on its carboxylic group and then evaluated the enzymatic stability of the various conjugates in presence of a hyaluronidase. Our results showed that all amino acid-modified HA polymers were more resistant to degradation compared to the native HA albeit with variation according to the amino acids. Amino acids with carboxylate groups such as aspartic acid or with hydroxyl functions (threonine, serine or tyrosine) conferred a particularly strong resistance to HA towards enzymatic digestion. The HA-amino acid products were then cross-linked with butanediol diglycidyl ether (BDDE). The swelling properties of the formed hydrogels appeared close to native HA whereas the increased resistance towards hyaluronidase digestion remained. These results suggest that amino acid-modified HA derivatives can become promising material for viscosupplementation or drug delivery.
