本发明属于生物医药领域,具体涉及一种可电离脂质化合物及包含其的脂质载体、核酸脂质纳米颗粒组合物和药物制剂。
背景技术
脂质纳米颗粒被广泛用于药物输送领域,而其中,可电离脂质不但是优良的蛋白/多肽抗原载体,还是一种新型的免疫佐剂,可直接活化抗原呈递细胞,增强疫苗诱导的免疫反应,因此可电离脂质在疫苗领域广泛地用于封装、转运核酸分子。可电离脂质是脂质纳米颗粒产生靶向性和递送性最关键的一环,其与负电荷性的核酸结合,有助于内涵体逃逸、核酸分子体内转染,具有pH敏感性等多种特点。可电离脂质决定了脂质纳米颗粒递送系统的递送效率和转染效率,因此设计靶向性和递送性良好的可电离脂质,是脂质纳米颗粒必不可少的关键要素。
目前,市面上最常用的,DLin-MC3-DMA(以下简称MC3)作为新型可电离脂质,具有“低毒高效”的优势,是全球首个应用于siRNA脂质体产品(Onpattro)的可电离脂质。而随着Onpattro在美国上市,MC3以及新型可电离脂质,得到了更多科学家的关注。相比于常见的DOTAP、DOTMA、DC-CHOL等可电离脂质,MC3这类新型可电离脂质的毒性更低,载药量和安全性均有显著提高。
目前,全球有4款(包含紧急使用授权)siRNA和mRNA药物得到FDA的认证,均使用了新型的可电离脂质。因此,新型的可电离脂质在核酸药物递送中具有广泛的应用前景。

实施例4:脂质纳米颗粒的制备和表征
1、脂质纳米颗粒(LNP)的制备
脂质纳米颗粒的制备包括将如上提到的可电离脂质、辅助脂质、结构脂质和聚合物结合的脂质等按照一定摩尔比混合溶解在无水乙醇中,以使总脂质相浓度为0.5-20mg/mL。将核酸溶解在pH低于7(例如3-6.5)的缓冲液中,并通过与脂质的乙醇溶液快速混合达到制备的目的。
在该实施例中,将可电离脂质(MC3、化合物1、化合物14、化合物15)、辅助脂质(DSPC、DOPE)、结构脂质(胆固醇)和聚合物结合的脂质(DMG-PEG2000)按照表1所示的摩尔比溶解在无水乙醇中,配制的总脂质相浓度为1mg/mL。
用水相缓冲液为pH4.0的50mM柠檬酸缓冲液溶解相应浓度的Luc-eGFP mRNA。mRNA与总脂质的质量比为1:30。
利用迈安纳处方筛选芯片制备LNP,总流速12ml/min,脂质相与水相流速比为1:3。将收集得到的脂质纳米颗粒用PBS在4℃透析过夜以除去乙醇和酸性缓冲盐。透析液体积为样品体积的400倍以上。利用0.2微米的滤膜对透析后的样品进行过滤。除了利用微流控芯片,还可以利用其他方式比如注射混合等方式来制备脂质纳米颗粒。样品在透析过滤后,利用10kDa的纤维素超滤膜对样品进行浓缩。离心参数为1000g到2000g,离心时间在30分钟至1小时。离心温度为4℃。
2、粒径测定:利用马尔文粒度仪测量制备的脂质纳米颗粒的粒径、多分散指数(PDI)。
3、mRNA包封率测定:
对于包裹了mRNA的脂质纳米颗粒,可以利用Quant-iTTM RNA试剂盒的检测方法。具体操作如下:利用TE缓冲液(10mM Tris-HCl,1mM EDTA,pH 7.5)将样品稀释至10-20倍。向待测样品加入等体积的破乳剂(2% Triton X-100)后再稀释10-20倍。将试剂在TE缓冲液中稀释100倍,并将100微升加入96孔板中。在相应的96孔板中加入100微升待测样品。同时利用mRNA标准品制备标准曲线。在酶标仪中读取利用480nm激发光激发的520nm的荧光值。通过标准曲线计算包裹的和游离的mRNA的浓度。通过包裹的mRNA的浓度和总mRNA的浓度的比值来计算包封率。
脂质纳米颗粒的组成成分和表征数据如表1所示。
表1:脂质纳米颗粒粒径大小和核酸包封率
实施例5:荧光素酶mRNA动物体内递送实验
通过观察小鼠体内荧光表达的方式来表征脂质纳米颗粒的核酸递送效率。将实施例4中制备的包 裹Luc-eGFP mRNA的脂质纳米颗粒按照一定剂量通过尾静脉注射进老鼠体内。取体重在18-22g的雌性C57/BL6小鼠,随机分组,每组2只。适应性饲养完毕,按照0.5mg/kg的剂量(此处的0.5mg,指的是mRNA的剂量),尾静脉注射包裹Luc-eGFP mRNA的LNP(无菌PBS溶液中)。为了观察荧光素酶的表达,将荧光素酶底物溶解在无菌PBS溶液中,制备成浓度为30mg/ml的溶液。
注射LNP 6小时后,每只小鼠腹腔注射150ul荧光素酶底物溶液。放置5分钟,然后在二氧化碳箱中麻醉3分钟,麻醉完毕放入小动物活体成像仪中,进行成像。
表2:脂质纳米颗粒递送Luc-eGFP mRNA的化学发光强度检测
图2中的小鼠从左到右依次为实验条件1、2、3、4、5的小鼠。
从表2和图2可以看出,与目前常用的可电离脂质MC3相比,本发明的化合物形成的脂质纳米颗粒在小鼠体内能够显著提高核酸的递送效率,具有良好的肝靶向以及在肝部高转染的潜力,证实了体内应用的可行性。
