摘要:重组人白细胞介素-2(rhIL-2)具有促进免疫细胞增殖和分化的潜能, 可用于治疗肺癌。然而, rhIL-2半衰期短, 生物活性不稳定, 需要将其载入微球中进行缓释给药。本研究采用同轴静电喷涂技术制备了载rhIL-2的核壳微球。以量子点为示踪材料, 核层用壳聚糖做载体包裹rhIL-2和量子点偶联物, 壳层采用透明质酸做载体制备核壳复合微球。采用单因素法对载体浓度、电压、针孔内径、喷雾流量等因素进行了研究。优化了同轴静电喷雾法制备核壳微球的工艺参数。结果表明, 制备的核壳微球粒径在1.2–2.0 μm, 包封率和载药量分别为78.39% ± 1.96%和19.58 ± 2.76 μg/mg。体外释放实验显示微球释放效果较好, 无突释现象。该制剂的生物学活性实验表明, 核壳微球中的rhIL-2与游离蛋白药物具有相同的作用。体内成像分析也显示微球具有主动靶向性。本研究为rhIL-2靶向缓释微球的研制提供了理论依据。
