Research and application of electrospinning drug delivery systems containing traditional Chinese medicine

背景:静电纺丝多孔纳米纤维是一种具有优良性能和可设计性的材料,将传统中药与其联合构建新型中药控释系统是实现中药的控制释放和提高生物利用度的有效途径,具有广阔应用前景。目的:综述静电纺丝中药控释系统的构建方法及其在医学领域相关研究进展。方法:以“静电纺丝,中药,药物载体,释药系统,组织工程,敷料”为中文检索词,以“electrospinning,traditional Chinese medicine,drug carrier,drug delivery system,tissue engineering,dressing”为英文检索词,检索中国知网、PubMed和Web of Science数据库的关于静电纺丝中药控释系统的研究应用文献,检索时间范围为2013-2023年,最终纳入62篇文献进行综述分析。结果与结论:①构建电纺多孔纤维中药控释系统的关键要素为基质材料、中药成分和载药方式。②电纺多孔纤维中药控释系统的构建可依据应用场景和治疗目的进行,首先选定中药成分种类,然后依据药物特性选择与其适配的聚合物基体及溶液,最后依据释药需求设计纤维结构并采用适宜的载药方式。③目前在电纺纤维中药控释系统中所应用的药剂以易制备纺丝溶液的植物中药提取物为主,缺少动物中药和矿物中药的系统研究。④共混载药是研究应用最多的载药方式,且通过对溶液理化性质的优化和负载物质多样性的选择不断扩展其释药特性和适应场景;同轴、多轴及顺序纺丝等载药方式可以制备具有多层成分性质不同的复合纤维,具有广阔发展前景。⑤电纺纤维中药控释系统早期应用集中于医用敷料方面,利用中药活性成分的抗菌止血功能,近年来发现中药某些成分能促进细胞黏附增殖分化,开启了组织工程领域的探索研究。⑥目前对电纺多孔纤维中药控释系统的研究主要集中在对负载材料、工艺、理化性能、生物性能的表征和优化上,而对机制的研究较少,其在临床中的应用尚未普及,在体内的不良反应尚不明了,对其降解行为与释药行为的相互影响也缺乏研究。⑦未来研究中需要考虑:通过改善中药与纺丝溶剂的理化性能和加大中药活性成分的提纯以扩大非植物中药的应用范围,对中药成分的治疗效果和作用机制进行全面研究,并阐明控释系统的降解行为与释药行为的相互影响规律,在更准确的机制下实现中药与电纺纳米纤维更完美的联合和应用。

BACKGROUND:Electrospun porous nanofiber exhibits excellent properties and designability.It is an effective way to control the release of traditional Chinese medicine and improve the bioavailability to design an advanced drug delivery system,which has a broad application prospect.OBJECTIVE:To review the construction methods of the electrospinning drug delivery system of traditional Chinese medicine and its related research progress in the medical field.METHODS:The literature search was performed in CNKI,PubMed,and Web of Science databases with the search terms“electrospinning,traditional Chinese medicine,drug carrier,drug delivery system,tissue engineering,dressing”in both English and Chinese for articles published from 2013 to 2023.Finally,62 articles were included in this review.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The key elements of the electrospinning drug delivery system of Chinese medicine preparation are substrate material,traditional Chinese medicine composition,and drug loading method.(2)The preparation of the electrospinning drug delivery system of Chinese medicine can be carried out according to the application scenario and therapeutic purpose.Firstly,the types of Chinese medicine are selected,then the polymer matrix and solution suitable for them are selected,and finally,the fiber structure is designed according to the drug release requirements and the appropriate drug loading method is adopted.(3)At present,the medicinal agents used are mainly plant Chinese medicine,and there is a lack of systematic research on animal and mineral Chinese medicine.(4)Blended drug loading is the most studied and applied drug loading method,and its drug release characteristics and adaptation scenarios are constantly expanded by optimizing the physicochemical properties of the solution and selecting the diversity of loaded substances.Multilayer fibers with different compositions and properties can be prepared by coaxial,multi-axis,and sequential electrospinning methods,which have broad development prospects.(5)The early application of the electrospinning drug delivery system of Chinese medicine focused on medical dressings according to the antibacterial and hemostatic functions.In recent years,it has been studied in the field of tissue engineering because some components of traditional Chinese medicine can promote cell adhesion,proliferation,and differentiation.(6)At present,the research mainly focuses on the characterization and optimization of loading materials,processes,physicochemical properties,and biological properties,but the research on the mechanism is less.Its clinical application has not been widespread;the adverse reactions in vivo and the interaction between its degradation behavior and drug release behavior are still unknown.(7)Future studies need to consider:We should expand the application of Chinese medicine by improving the physicochemical properties and increasing the purification of Chinese medicine extracts.We need to comprehensively study the therapeutic effects and application mechanisms of Chinese medicine,and clarify the interaction of degradation behavior and drug release behavior,to achieve a more perfect combination and application of Chinese medicine and electrospinning nanofibers under a more accurate mechanism.
