Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of pharmaceutical technology, in particular to a docetaxel fat body preparation and a preparation method and application thereof.
- Docetaxel is a chemotherapy drug used to treat various types of cancer, including breast cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, prostate cancer, gastric cancer, and head and neck cancer. It binds to microtubules, preventing their depolymerization, thereby inhibiting cell division and leading to cell death.
- Docetaxel is a hydrophobic drug with a logP (oil-water partition coefficient) of 1.6 and an extremely low solubility in water of only 0.006 mg/mL.
- Docetaxel is currently used in clinical practice in the form of an injection. To improve the solubility of docetaxel, polysorbate 80 (Tween 80) and ethanol are often added.
- nanocarriers are widely used in the research and development of new docetaxel formulations.
- Polymer carriers can provide better drug protection and reduce drug distribution in the body, thereby reducing its toxic side effects.
- these methods also have some shortcomings.
- liposomes have a hydrophilic core, and only the hydrophobic environment between their phospholipid bilayers can be used to carry docetaxel, but their encapsulation capacity is low.
- the stability of liposomes may be poor, and fusion, rupture or drug leakage may occur easily, which may affect their distribution in the body and the release of the drug.
- the amount of polymer carrier encapsulated docetaxel is also low.
- PEG and PLGA are not naturally present in the body, and can cause the body to produce corresponding antibodies to resist their effects. Therefore, these novel preparations, while improving the solubility and effect of docetaxel, are also faced with problems such as no targeted modification, low encapsulation rate and potential safety.
- the novel nanoparticle liposomes consist of a hydrophobic core composed of neutral lipids and are encapsulated by a monomolecular phospholipid membrane. Similar in structure to naturally occurring lipid droplets and lipoproteins, they can efficiently dissolve and encapsulate hydrophobic small molecules. Furthermore, the components of liposomes are naturally present in the body, resulting in excellent biocompatibility. Furthermore, their preparation is simple and efficient. If liposomes are used to deliver docetaxel or other hydrophobic drugs, they are expected to enhance drug solubility, improve bioavailability, enhance efficacy and safety, and enable targeted delivery, greatly facilitating treatment for patients.
- the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a docetaxel fat body preparation and a preparation method and application thereof, wherein the fat body preparation has good bioavailability and safety and can carry targeting molecules.

- liver-targeted docetaxel adiposomes The morphology of the obtained liver-targeted docetaxel adiposomes (Lv-DTX-Ad) was observed under optical microscopy.
- Lv-DTX-Ad was a uniformly sized spherical structure that stained red with the neutral lipid-specific dye LipidTox Red ( Figure 10, B).
- Western blot analysis revealed high LDLR expression in the mouse liver and in the hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines HepG2 and Hepa1-6, while expression was very low in embryonic kidney epithelial HEK293 cells ( Figure 10, C).
- the prepared fluorescently labeled liver-targeted docetaxel adiposomes were injected into mice via the tail vein.
- liver-targeted docetaxel adiposomes were consistently enriched in the liver. Twenty-four hours after injection, a strong signal was still detected in the liver (Figure 10, D). This indicates that we have successfully constructed liver-targeted docetaxel fat bodies and further evaluated their efficacy and safety in the treatment of liver cancer.
- mice were randomly divided into three groups, each containing five mice: a saline group, a docetaxel injection group, a docetaxel adipocyte group, and a liver-targeted docetaxel adipocyte group. Docetaxel equivalent to 15 mg/kg was administered intravenously once a week for three times. Thirty-one days after cancer cell injection, the mice were sacrificed, their livers isolated, and liver tumor size measured. Blood was also collected for liver and kidney function tests.
- the liver tumor volume in the docetaxel injection group was significantly smaller, with an average tumor inhibition rate of 47.4%.
- the liver tumor inhibition rate in the docetaxel adipocyte group was 84.5%, significantly better than that in the docetaxel injection group.
- the liver-targeted docetaxel adipocyte group achieved the highest inhibition rate, reaching 97.9% ( Figure 11A).
- the average weight loss of mice in the liver-targeted docetaxel fat body treatment group was 7%
- the average weight loss of mice in the docetaxel fat body treatment group was 14.4%
- the average weight loss of mice in the docetaxel injection treatment group was 38.9% (Figure 11B).
- liver function inflammation indicator AST aspartate aminotransferase
- Example 5 The effect of hematological tumor cells targeting docetaxel fat bodies is better than docetaxel injection
- H929-Targeted Docetaxel Adiposome (H929-DTX-Ad) targeting hematologic malignancy cells and performed targeting and efficacy verification.
- Phospholipid without biotin (DOPC), named 18:1( ⁇ 9-Cis)PC
- biotin-modified phosphatidylethanolamine Bio-PE
- 18:1Biotinyl Cap PE neutral lipid is glyceryl trioleate (TAG). All of the above products were purchased from Sigma.
- the lipid mixture 2 is centrifuged at 20,000 g for 5 min (in actual application, 18,000-22,000 g for 3-7 min is acceptable). After centrifugation, the sediment at the bottom of the tube is removed, and the remaining emulsion in the tube is resuspended to obtain a milky white lipid mixture 3.
- the lipid mixture 3 was centrifuged at 1000 g for 5 min. After centrifugation, the upper white band was removed and the remaining emulsion in the tube was resuspended to obtain a milky white lipid mixture 4, which is the final biotin-labeled fat body.
- Hematologic tumor cell targeting Adipocyte targeting of hematologic tumor cells H929
- Relapsed myeloma is caused by hematologic malignant cells H929, which highly express BCMA (Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 17).
- BCMA Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 17
- Western blot revealed that only hematologic malignant cells H929 highly expressed BCMA protein, while another hematologic malignant cell type Raji and human embryonic kidney epithelial cells HEK293 did not express BCMA protein ( Figure 12B).
- the blank group no Do any treatment
- non-targeted fat body treatment group hematologic tumor cell targeted fat body group
- hematologic tumor cell targeted fat body group fat body with BCMA antibody
- inhibition of targeted fat body group additional of BCMA protein to block fat body with BCMA antibody
- the peak of the hematologic tumor cell targeted fat body group was significantly shifted to the right (peak 3 in C in Figure 12), indicating that H929 cells phagocytized more fat bodies, while the peaks of the non-targeted fat body treatment group and the inhibition of targeted fat body group did not shift to the right (peak 2 and peak 4 in C in Figure 12).
- the statistical results also showed that the fluorescence signal of the hematologic tumor cell targeted fat body group was the strongest (column 3 in C in Figure 12), which was significantly higher than that of the non-targeted fat body treatment group (column 2 in C in Figure 12), while the inhibition of targeted fat body group inhibited the endocytosis of fat bodies by H929 cells.
- H929 cells showed the strongest internalization of the hematologic tumor cell-targeted adipocytes, while the addition of BCMA protein inhibited the internalization of the hematologic tumor cell-targeted adipocytes by H929 cells ( Figure 12D). These results demonstrate that the prepared hematologic tumor cell-targeted adipocytes successfully target the hematologic tumor H929 cells.
- Neutral lipids Mix fish oil and tricaprylin (8:0 TAG) in a volume ratio of 1/1.
- step 5 The lipid mixture 2 obtained in step 5) was centrifuged at 20,000 g for 5 minutes (in actual application, 18,000-22,000 g for 3-7 minutes is acceptable). After centrifugation, the precipitate at the bottom of the microcentrifuge tube was removed and vortexed to obtain a milky white lipid mixture 3.
- step 6) The lipid mixture 3 obtained in step 6) was centrifuged at 1000 g for 5 min (in actual application, 800-1200 g for 3-7 min can be used). After centrifugation, the liquid phase system showed two layers. The lower milky white solution was collected by extraction and vortexed to obtain a milky white lipid mixture 4.
- step 8) 30ul of lipid mixture 4 obtained in step 7) was then added with 20ul of avidin-labeled BCMA antibody at a final concentration of 0.25mg/ml, incubated at room temperature for 1 hour, and the lipid mixture was centrifuged at 21000g for 6min. After centrifugation, the sediment at the bottom of the tube was removed, and the remaining emulsion in the tube was suspended to obtain a milky white lipid mixture 5. The lipid mixture was centrifuged at 1000g for 6min. After centrifugation, the upper white band was removed and the remaining emulsion in the tube was resuspended. The above steps were repeated three times to obtain hematologic tumor cell-targeted docetaxel fat bodies.
- hematologic tumor cell-targeted docetaxel fat bodies have biological activity and can kill tumor cells.
- Human hematologic tumor cells H929 were treated with commercial docetaxel injection, the non-targeted docetaxel fat bodies prepared in Example 2, and hematologic tumor cell-targeted docetaxel fat bodies, respectively. After treating the cells with the same concentration of 20 ng/ml of DTX for 2 hours, 4 hours, and 16 hours, the culture medium was removed, and then drug-free culture medium was added to measure cell survival.
