Background technology
Hyaluronic acid (hyalouronic acid; hereinafter to be referred as HA) by (1-β-4) D-glucuronic acid and the multiply-connected a kind of chain polyanion mucopolysaccharide that forms that connects of (1-β-3) N-acetyl group-D-aminoglucose disaccharidase unit weight; be the important component that consists of skin, vitreous body, knuckle synovia and cartilaginous tissue, have unique physicochemical property and biological function.Commodity hyaluronate sodium (sodium hyaluronate, hereinafter to be referred as SH) be the sodium salt of HA, derive from animal tissue or microbial fermentation, be widely used in food, daily use chemicals and field of medicaments, due to the difference of purity, have the multiple grade product such as food stage, medical grade and cosmetics-stage.Through long-term research and development, highly purified medical grade SH has been made into injection, is applied to ophthalmologic operation, bone surgery, treatment osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis and prevention of postoperative adhesion.In addition, owing to having good biocompatibility and unique viscoelasticity, HA is used to inject skin of face, alleviates wrinkle, improve skin appearance and structure (RU2272634, RU2194512) or improve lip shape, stop skin aging (RU2159111).But natural HA is easily by the enzymatic degradation in when injected organism tissue, and good water solublity easily is diffused it in tissue, so the time that it retains in the animal tissue part is also unsatisfactory.Natural HA easily disperses in order to overcome, degradation-labile defect, numerous compounds is used to modify or crosslinked natural HA (US4713448, US4582865, WO9009401, WO9515168, US2003114406, EP1265116 etc.), wherein adopt the compound crosslink HA that contains glycidyl ether (epoxy radicals), obtained that injectable, toxicity are little, the product of good biocompatibility, can be used for preparing that the ophthalmology vitreous body substitutes, anti, soft tissue is filled and the product such as slow releasing pharmaceutical bank.With the existing crosslinked listing of the crosslinked HA of BDDE (Isosorbide-5-Nitrae-butanediol diglycidyl ether, BDDE), as the ophthalmic product SKGEL of French CORNEAL company
Cosmetics RESTYLANE with U.S. Q-MED company
, in clinical practice for many years, rarely seen toxic and side effects report is the higher crosslinked HA product of safety.
open (the WO8600079 of the existing a plurality of patents of the technology of the crosslinked HA of glycidyl ether, WO8600912, WO9704012, US6852255, CN1590444 etc.), its Patent WO026350 discloses the technical process that BDDE crosslinked HA prepares injectable gel, cross-linking agent first is dissolved in aqueous slkali, again with solid HA hybrid reaction, obtain uniformity gel preferably, gel after purified obtains the granulated gel of certain particle size by the homogenizing disintegrating process, sterilization at last obtains finished product, under certain thrust, gel particle can (be released as 26~27G) through thinner syringe needle.
Patent CN1590444 discloses in acidity or alkaline solution, and glycidyl ether and HA (15 ℃~35 ℃) reaction under lower temperature conditions is conducive to protection HA macromolecular chain in course of reaction, reduces the degraded that it produces due to chain rupture.This patent is also mentioned especially and is adopted the BD of University Of Tianjin series deproteinization purifying products HA raw material simultaneously, can improve the quality of product.
The inventive method is having unique distinction aspect gel-purified and granule preparation (fragmentation).The present invention utilizes crosslinked HA jel product different characteristic of the coefficient of expansion in the different ionic strength aqueous solution, allow cross-linking products fully expand in deionized water, then improve deionized water intermediate ion intensity gel is shunk, fully removed unreacted reactant and other impurity; Make gel by a certain size screen cloth under the adequately expanded state of gel, form particle diameter than the homogeneous granule, after improving deionized water intermediate ion intensity, but make it shrink form the flow-gel granule of uniform and smooth, compare with the technique (WO0206350) that the mechanical homogenizing of direct employing is made fine particle with gel, have a gel particle even, particle size distribution range is little, purity is high, and impurity is few, does not increase the advantages such as content of beary metal.
The present invention adopts medical grade SH raw material, and glycidyl ether is cross-linking agent, under alkali condition, carries out cross-linking reaction and purification at 40~80 ℃.Compare with the method for CN1590444, medical grade SH raw materials market is on sale, and its purity is high, protein residue is extremely low, need not deproteinization again, has reduced the feed purification step; The pyroreaction that the inventive method adopts, high temperature purification are compared with its normal-temperature reaction, room temperature purification, have advantages of that technique is simple, consuming time short, are conducive to keep in process of production that product is aseptic, apyrogeneity, can reduce the step of finished product depyrogenation.Evidence, under alkali condition, lower temperature, for a long time reaction is to the palliating degradation degree of SH and be not less than the reaction of higher temperatures, short time.
