Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of hydrogels, and particularly relates to a microenvironment responsive spinal cord repair hydrogel and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
The disclosure of this background section is only intended to increase the understanding of the general background of the invention and is not necessarily to be construed as an admission or any form of suggestion that this information forms the prior art already known to those of ordinary skill in the art.
Current research on Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) repair materials focuses on constructing three-dimensional structures with bioactivity, mechanical suitability, and microenvironment responsiveness. Current mainstream technology includes synthetic polymeric hydrogels, natural biomaterials, and composite hydrogel systems. The hydrogel becomes a research hot spot due to the characteristics of the bionic extracellular matrix, can be used as a stem cell/drug carrier to realize accurate delivery, and can form a physical barrier in situ through the injectability characteristic to inhibit scar generation. However, the existing repair materials have significant drawbacks in terms of microenvironment responsiveness, swelling resistance, self-healing properties, bioactivity, antibacterial properties, mechanical strength, drug carrying capacity, and the like, and in particular have the following problems.
Insufficient resistance to swelling, including (1) a decrease in mechanical properties due to swelling. After the traditional hydrogel absorbs water and swells, the three-dimensional network structure is easy to expand and deform, so that the mechanical strength is obviously reduced. (2) risk of compression to surrounding tissue. Traditional hydrogels (such as PVA or PEG groups) have excessive hydrophilic groups, so that the water absorption expansion rate in a physiological environment is more than 150%, and excessive swelling of the hydrogels can press normal tissues, so that the risk of intracranial pressure rise after implantation is caused, and secondary damage is caused. (3) insufficient stability and durability. Traditional chemically crosslinked hydrogels (such as single covalent bond crosslinking) are difficult to recover the original shape after swelling, and have poor dynamic response.
The traditional hydrogel has insufficient antibacterial property, and the drug release of the traditional hydrogel is mostly passively diffused, and cannot be dynamically regulated according to the infection microenvironment (such as pH and ROS level), so that the drug is released prematurely or the local concentration is insufficient.

a5 A product for preparing the sustained release medicine in the spinal cord repairing process.
The beneficial effects of the invention are as follows:
1. According to the invention, boric acid ester bonds and Schiff base bonds are adopted as ROS response main bodies to form a continuous response dynamic network, intelligent response is realized through the dynamic reversible characteristic of the continuous response dynamic network, and bond rupture can be effectively triggered in a low-concentration ROS environment. The dynamic bond has pH responsiveness, is stable under physiological pH (7.4), can be reversibly dissociated in a local acid/alkaline microenvironment of a damaged area, dynamically adjusts network density, balances water absorption expansion and mechanical strength, and is characterized in that imine bonds (-C=N-) are reversibly broken under an acidic environment (pH < 6.5) so as to neutralize hydrogen ions in the environment to raise the pH, when the microenvironment is restored to be neutral, network self-repair is realized through rebinding of amino groups and aldehyde groups, the material can be quickly self-repaired after ROS response, the problem that the traditional material is collapsed in structure due to bond breakage (the mechanical strength loss of the traditional material reaches more than 50% after the traditional material is responded) is avoided, the integrity of the bracket is kept so as to continuously adjust and control the microenvironment, and boric acid ester bonds tend to be stable under alkaline conditions (pH > 7.4) so as to be complementary with Schiff base bonds, and prevent the material from being excessively degraded in the later stage of inflammation. The material can adjust the crosslinking density through the ion concentration of tetraborate radical (0.02-0.05 mol/L) when the pH value fluctuates, further dynamically adjust the network porosity, realize the intelligent matching of the drug slow release curve, resist the interference of various factors in the complex physiological environment through the dual dynamic network, and ensure that the stable response capability of the material in the spinal cord injury microenvironment is maintained for more than 15 days.
2. The added nano silicon particles strengthen a three-dimensional network through physical filling and interface interaction, so that the elastic modulus of the material is obviously improved, and the mechanical property range of 0.2-1.0kPa of spinal cord tissue can be matched. The rigid supporting function can prevent the collapse of the structure, provide physical anchoring sites for the recombination of dynamic bonds, and avoid the dislocation of the structure in the traditional soft gel self-healing process. The hydrophobic property of the nano silicon particles and the boric acid ester bonds can reduce water molecule permeation and inhibit excessive swelling, and meanwhile, the dynamic property of the nano silicon particles and the boric acid ester bonds allows the network to restore structural integrity through bond recombination after swelling, so that irreversible expansion deformation of the traditional hydrogel is avoided. The surface of the nano silicon particles (SiNPs) can be combined with amino groups, and can be quickly adhered to the surface of a negatively charged bacterial cell membrane by electrostatic action to destroy the membrane integrity, so that SiNPs can realize broad-spectrum antibiosis without depending on antibiotics, and the inhibition effect on gram-positive bacteria (such as staphylococcus aureus) and gram-negative bacteria (such as escherichia coli) is remarkably improved. The anti-inflammatory properties of the silicon particles combine with the ROS responsiveness of dynamic borate bonds and Schiff base bonds, so that the composite hydrogel has strong anti-inflammatory properties.
3. Aiming at the problems of unmatched mechanical strength and weak slow release function of the traditional medicine carrying system, the invention forms a stable three-dimensional pore structure through a OXG-CSMA-borax dynamic boric acid ester bond/Schiff base bond double-network structure. The network can adapt to the medicine diffusion rate through the rupture-recombination of dynamic bonds, and can provide multiple medicine carrying sites by utilizing the medicine molecules loaded on the surfaces of the nano silicon particles. Compared with a collagen system relying on single physical adsorption in the traditional repair material technology, the design remarkably improves the medicine carrying capacity and realizes slow release, and avoids secondary damage of medicine burst release to nerve tissues. Under the acidic microenvironment of the damaged area, schiff base bonds are selectively broken to release neurotrophic factors, and when the concentration of ROS is increased, the Schiff base bonds are further dissociated to accelerate the release of the antioxidant drugs. The time sequence control characteristic overcomes the defect of insufficient release time sequence regulation in the background technology, realizes multi-stage accurate drug delivery of early anti-inflammatory, middle regeneration promotion and later barrier repair, and is highly matched with the spinal cord injury repair process.

S3, 3- [2- (2-amino-ethylamino) ethylamino ] propyl-trimethoxysilane was used as a silicon source, ultrapure water was stirred in a constant temperature water bath at 70℃for 300-500rpm, 1/5 of the volume of the silicon source (purity of 3- [2- (2-amino-ethylamino) ethylamino ] propyl-trimethoxysilane was added thereto (purity: 99%) and then 2-aminophenol (purity: 99%) was added to the solution
More than or equal to 98.5 percent) as a reducing agent, adding 4.0mg of 2-aminophenol into each milliliter of silicon source, keeping the constant temperature of 70 ℃ for continuous stirring reaction for 150 minutes, gradually generating a third dispersion liquid in which silicon nano particles are dispersed, dialyzing the third dispersion liquid by deionized water, intercepting substances with molecular weight of 400-600Da, dialyzing for 8 hours, removing unreacted small molecular impurities, freeze-drying the intercepted substances, and detecting the particle size of the required nano silicon particles (SiNPs) to be 50-100nm.

(2) Microscopic observations
And (3) scanning electron microscopy detection is carried out on the prepared microenvironment responsive spinal cord repair hydrogel, the result is shown in a figure 1, wherein (a) in the figure 1 is a first pore structure diagram under the scanning electron microscopy, and (b) in the figure 1 is a second pore structure diagram under the scanning electron microscopy, and the gradient control of the three-dimensional network crosslinking degree is realized by adjusting the concentration of tetraborate ions (controlling the crosslinking density of borate bonds) and the formation proportion of Schiff base bonds (influencing the dynamic network recombination capability). The distribution of the four elements C, N, si, O in fig. 1 (c) shows that the elements are distributed uniformly in the material, which means that the elements are successfully introduced and have good dispersibility in the matrix of the material. This suggests that the components are uniformly mixed during the preparation of the material, possibly contributing to their subsequent synergy in biological applications or functional manifestations.
(3) Model performance detection
The initial compression strength is 1.0kPa, the composite hydrogel is soaked in the physiological saline for 72 hours to be a swelling hydrogel, and then the swelling hydrogel is detected, the volume expansion rate is 8% (the swelling rate is less than 10%), the compression modulus is 87% of the initial value, the compression strength is kept at 93%, and the compression risk to surrounding tissues is reduced due to the low volume expansion rate.
A universal material tester (INSTRON 5944) is adopted to carry out cyclic compression test on the swelling hydrogel, namely, the compressive strain is set to be 50 percent, the frequency is 1Hz, 30 times of cyclic loading-unloading are continuously carried out, and the result shows that the initial cyclic compressive stress is 0.85kPa, the stress is reduced to 0.81kPa after 30 times of cyclic loading-unloading, and the attenuation rate is 4.7 percent. The stress-strain curves of each cycle are kept to be highly overlapped, the attenuation rate of the hysteresis loop area is only 3.2%, which shows that the dynamic bond network can effectively dissipate energy through the real-time recombination of Schiff base bonds and boric acid ester bonds, and compared with the traditional single-network hydrogel, the dual-dynamic bond synergistic effect obviously improves the fatigue resistance. The stress attenuation rate is less than or equal to 5% after 30 times of cyclic compression.
The method comprises the steps of synchronously carrying out scanning electron microscopy to observe pore structure change, analyzing chemical bond recombination rate of borate bonds and Schiff base bonds through FT-IR (experimental data show that 98% bond recombination is completed in 1 hour), simultaneously monitoring real-time recovery data of mechanical properties of materials under different pH/ROS conditions, and indicating that the microenvironment-responsive spinal cord repair hydrogel prepared by the method is based on pH response characteristics (stable under physiological pH 7.4 and reversible dissociation of acidic microenvironment) of the borate bonds and ROS sensitivity of the Schiff base bonds, and can realize network dynamic recombination after swelling.
The initial tensile strength was measured by preparing a standard dumbbell specimen according to ASTM D412, balancing the specimen in a test environment (25 ℃ and 90% humidity) for 24 hours to remove residual stress, measuring the tensile strength to be 1.27mpa, cutting the specimen perpendicular to the tensile direction, and placing the end faces in combination, which achieves macroscopic incision closure within 0.5 hour at 25 ℃, measuring the tensile strength to be 1.10mpa after 2 hours, recovering to more than 85% of the original value, measuring the tensile strength to be 1.16mpa after 2 injury-healing tests (total 3 times) after 16 hours of healing, and still maintaining more than 90% of the mechanical properties (the traditional single dynamic key system only recovers <50% and fails after repeated repair), and the experiment shows that the implanted hydrogel in the animal model maintains structural integrity in the spinal cord dynamic shrinkage/expansion environment without fissures.
The flexural strength of the standard dumbbell specimen was measured using the three-point bending test method, and the result was an average flexural strength of 2.7mpa.
The method comprises the steps of immersing end face positions which are combined and placed through H 2O2 solutions with different concentration gradients, controlling local ROS level through adjusting time, or adopting different pH buffers (such as PBS with pH of 5.0-8.0) to treat cut-off interfaces to simulate micro-environment fluctuation, utilizing fluorescent marked dynamic Schiff base bond precursors (with high fluorescence intensity at fracture parts and weaker uniform distribution parts) in the process, utilizing a confocal microscope to detect fluorescence intensity changes at the fracture parts in real time, calculating self-healing rate = notch fluorescence intensity/original fluorescence intensity to determine the self-healing rate, and finding out that active oxygen (ROS) level in a damaged area rises to trigger Schiff base bond preferential recombination, and local pH fluctuation regulates boric acid ester bond dynamic balance to achieve self-healing rate and micro-environment adaptation, wherein the self-healing rate is improved by 2.3 times when the ROS concentration in experiments is more than or equal to 5 mu M.
The incision area was analyzed by in situ spectroscopy for infrared spectroscopy during the injury-healing test, and schiff base bonds were observed (c=n,
The characteristic peak intensity changes of 1640cm < -1 >) and boric acid ester bonds (B-O, < - > 1380cm < -1 >), the bond recombination rate is calculated, the ratio of the C=N peak intensity to the initial C=N peak intensity is about 99.1% after a plurality of experimental data are carried out for 1 hour, the ratio of the B-O peak intensity to the initial B-O peak intensity is about 98.4% after 1 hour, which shows that after the ROS trigger rupture of the boric acid ester bonds and the Schiff base bonds, 98% bond recombination is completed within 1 hour, the compressive strength of the material is restored to 95% of the initial value (the breaking strength of the traditional material is lost by 50% and is irreversible), and the integrity of the bracket is maintained so as to continuously regulate and control the microenvironment.
(4) Antibacterial property detection
The antibacterial performance of the composite hydrogel is measured by an agar diffusion method, wherein bacteria are firstly cultivated to a logarithmic phase (OD 600 is approximately equal to 0.5), diluted to 10 6 CFU/mL, 100 mu L of bacterial suspension is uniformly coated on an LB agar plate, a sterile hydrogel wafer (with the diameter of 6mm and the thickness of 2 mm) is lightly pressed on the surface of the agar, the composite hydrogel with the diameter of a bacteriostasis ring (comprising a hydrogel contact area and surrounding transparent rings) loaded with SiNPs is cultivated for 18-24 hours at 37 ℃, the inhibition ring areas of the composite hydrogel on staphylococcus aureus and escherichia coli reach 196.5+/-10.3 mm 2 and 61.3+/-1.1 mm 2 respectively, and the bacterial proliferation inhibition capability is shown to be remarkably inhibited compared with a traditional antibiotic loading system, so that the drug resistance risk of bacteria is avoided.
In an experiment aiming at methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), the micro-environment responsive spinal cord repair hydrogel prepared by the embodiment is adopted by an experimental group, the methicillin Lin Kangsheng is adopted by a control group, the inhibition rate of the formation of a biological film in the experimental group is more than 82 percent (the control group is less than 30 percent), and the area of a inhibition zone is 167.9+/-13.1 mm 2, so that the micro-environment responsive spinal cord repair hydrogel can break through a traditional antibiotic drug resistance barrier, and high-efficiency synergistic antibacterial effect is realized.
After the microenvironment-responsive spinal cord repair hydrogel obtained in this example was injected into the damaged defect area of the mouse spinal cord semi-transection model, the system evaluated the inflammatory reaction in vivo, and fluorescence staining was performed by the relevant inflammatory index, and the result shows that compared with the pure injury group, the fluorescence intensity of the neuroinflammation index of the damaged part in the treatment group is obviously reduced, the range is obviously reduced, which means that the neuroinflammation of the treatment group is obviously reduced, and the material can obviously inhibit the growth of pathogenic microorganisms and reduce the inflammation level, and exhibits excellent antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, as shown in fig. 4.
(5) Detection of effect of scavenging micro-environmental ROS
ROS-simulated microenvironment was constructed in a 37℃5% CO 2 incubator, and the ROS scavenging performance was tested by DCFH-DA fluorescent probe method, which involved immersing 20. Mu.L of hydrogel sample (diameter 5mM, thickness 2 mM) in 1mL of serum-free medium containing 10. Mu. MDCFH-DA, incubating for 30min at 37℃and transferring to fresh medium after washing, adding H 2O2 to 0.5mM to the medium for ROS triggering, and immediately timing and recording the initial fluorescence intensity (excitation wavelength 488nm, emission wavelength 525 nm), and measuring the DCF fluorescence intensity in the medium using a fluorescent microplate reader at time points of 0, 6, 12, 24, 48, 72, 120, 180 hours, respectively, the DCF fluorescence intensity reflecting the residual ROS amount, and calculating the scavenging rate (ROS scavenging rate) and the measured half-life based thereon:
Wherein F0 is the initial fluorescence intensity after adding H 2O2, and Ft is the fluorescence intensity at each time point.
By fitting a curve of ROS clearance over time, the time required for the fluorescence intensity to drop to 50% of the initial value, i.e. the ROS clearance half-life, is calculated.

In the mechanical property test, the compressive strength is only 0.15kPa, and the bending strength is 0.2kPa.

On day 7 of incubation, a hydrogel sample containing cells was removed and subjected to Live/dead staining (Live/DEAD STAINING) using a mixed working solution of Calcein-AM (2 μm) and propidium iodide PI (4 μm), incubated at 37 ℃ for 30 minutes after dropping onto the sample surface, followed by slow washing with PBS 2-3 times to remove excess dye, and the stained hydrogel was observed under a confocal laser scanning microscope.

Mu.L) is precisely injected into the semi-transversal injury central area of the spinal cord of the mouse by using a micro-injector (specification 33G) guided by a stereotactic instrument, the single-point injection volume is 2. Mu.L, after the cells are attached for 1 hour, the hydrogel prepared in the example 1 is slowly injected by the same route to cover the stem cell transplantation area, and the injection volume is 5. Mu.L. Mice were anesthetized at week 4 post-injury, spinal cord tissue pieces (including the injured area and tissue about 5mm each) were removed, fixed in 4% Paraformaldehyde (PFA) for 24 hours, and then dehydrated in 30% sucrose solution to tissue sink. Embedding the dehydrated tissue in OCT embedding agent, preparing transverse or sagittal slice with thickness of 10-20 μm on a frozen microtome, and attaching on a slide for later use. Sections were washed 3 times (5 min each) with PBS, permeabilized with 0.3% Triton X-100 for 10-15 min, then blocked with 5% BSA or normal goat serum for 1 h at room temperature to block non-specific binding, excess liquid was aspirated after blocking, primary antibody mix was added, incubated overnight at 4 ℃, washed 3 times with PBS the next day, fluorescent labeled secondary antibody was added, incubated in the dark for 1 h, washed 3 times with PBS again after incubation was completed, DAPI-containing blocking liquid-blocking sheet was added dropwise, and finally neuronal axons and astrocyte distribution and glial scar were recorded and photographed using confocal microscopy.
The observation result of the confocal microscope is shown in figure 4, the invention obviously promotes the differentiation of stem cells to neurons and the regeneration and repair of nerve tissues, the hydrogel is rapidly gelled to form a three-dimensional wrapping structure, the dynamic network pores of the hydrogel can provide anchoring sites for the stem cells, and simultaneously, the microenvironment is continuously regulated through a pH/ROS response mechanism, the mechanical stress damage caused by premixing the stem cells and the hydrogel is avoided through physical separation in the operation mode, and the barrier formed after gelation can effectively inhibit inflammatory cell infiltration and reduce the mechanical compression of the implant to surrounding tissues.
Fig. 3 (a) shows immunofluorescence staining of typical neuronal markers and astrocyte markers after 4 weeks of establishment of a semi-transversal model of spinal cord injury in mice, fig. 3 (b) shows statistical analysis of fluorescent intensity of astrocyte markers, and fig. 3 (c) shows statistical analysis of fluorescent intensity of neuronal cell markers, which shows that the material can effectively promote survival rate of stem cells in vivo in microenvironment and reduce secondary injury of grafts to spinal cord tissues, and compared with a pure injury group, the invention remarkably promotes regeneration and tissue repair of nerve tissues at the injury part, promotes extension and remyelination of nerve axons, and provides a better biological scaffold scheme for cell therapy of spinal cord injury.

Example 5
The difference between this example and example 1 is that the drug loading process is carried out by dissolving the anti-inflammatory drugs dexamethasone and neurotrophic factor NGF in PBS buffer solution respectively, premixing with nano-silicon particles (SiNPs) for 30 minutes, achieving the initial loading by hydrogen bonding of hydroxyl groups on the surface of the silicon particles and drug molecules, then adding the drug-loaded nano-silicon particles into the premix of xyloglucan (OXG) and methacrylated Chitosan (CSMA), wherein the concentration of dexamethasone in the system is 0.5mg/mL, the concentration of neurotrophic factor NGF in the system is 50ng/mL, forming a double-network hydrogel through dynamic borate bond/Schiff base bond crosslinking, enabling the drug to be further embedded into a three-dimensional pore structure, and finally completing the drug double loading by 40 ℃ magnetic stirring (600 rpm,2 hours).
In vitro simulation of spinal cord injury microenvironment (pH 6.5+ROS 0.2mM acidic oxidative conditions and pH7.4+ROS was employed
0.05MM neutral recovery conditions) and the cumulative release rates of dexamethasone and NGF were quantitatively analyzed by High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC).
The detection result is that the average value of the burst release amount of the drug in the first 6 hours after the ROS triggering is monitored by adopting a flow cytometry in the acute phase detection is 84%, and the NGF slow release curve in the repair phase is measured by ELISA, so that the daily average release amount is 4%. The dual-dynamic network constructed by using boric acid ester bonds and Schiff base bonds is combined with a PH/ROS dual-response mechanism, so that the explosive release of anti-inflammatory drugs (such as dexamethasone) in an acute phase (PH is less than or equal to 6.5+ROS is more than or equal to 0.2 mM) and the slow release of neurotrophic factors (NGF) in a repair phase (PH 7.4+ROS is less than or equal to 0.05 mM) are realized, and the stable response of the material in a complex physiological environment (such as intermittent ROS fluctuation) is kept.
The xyloglucan adopted in the invention is a mixed sugar, the component proportions of the xyloglucan from different sources are different, and the molecular sizes are also different. Depending on the parameters, the hydrogel construction conditions need to be explored to achieve optimal performance. The tamarind xyloglucan has a multi-branched structure and high active hydroxyl content, the biological adaptability of a dynamic network is obviously optimized, and the multi-branched structure of the xyloglucan from other sources has no advantage compared with the high active hydroxyl content, so that the same level of crosslinking density, biological activity and response sensitivity of the xyloglucan from the tamarind cannot be achieved.
Xyloglucan has significant advantages in central nerve repair such as spinal cord. The natural polysaccharide structure of the natural polysaccharide has excellent biocompatibility and degradability, can simulate the environment of a nerve extracellular matrix, and promotes neuron adhesion and axon directional growth. As a natural polymer from tamarind, xyloglucan can form a dynamic Schiff base bond with amino groups of chitosan after forming aldehyde groups through oxidation, and a pH/ROS double-response network is constructed to accurately match acid-base fluctuation and oxidative stress change of a spinal cord injury microenvironment. Compared with synthetic materials, the hydroxyl groups on the polysaccharide chains can enhance the water retention and lubricity of the hydrogel and reduce the tissue friction damage after implantation. In addition, the three-dimensional pore structure of the xyloglucan is more beneficial to nutrient delivery and metabolic waste removal, and when the xyloglucan is cooperated with nano silicon particles, a supporting network which is mechanically matched with spinal cord tissues can be formed, so that the morphological stability of a damaged part is effectively maintained.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the following outstanding advantages:
1. In the prior art, although a single dynamic network design containing a boric acid ester bond or a Schiff base bond exists, the PH response range is limited (such as the PH response range is only effective in a neutral to alkaline environment), and dynamic self-adjustment cannot be realized under local acid/base fluctuation. The double dynamic bonds of the invention make hydrogel trigger reversible dissociation of Schiff base bond under acid (pH less than or equal to 6.5) condition by synergistic effect, and maintain network integrity under physiological pH (7.4) by stability of boric acid ester bond, thus solving the problem of mechanical strength collapse or excessive swelling caused by single bond response of traditional materials. In addition, the rigid supporting function of the nano silicon particles further enhances the structural stability of the network under the fluctuation of pH, and breaks through the contradiction between the stability and response sensitivity of the traditional system.
2. Although the prior art has a scheme of singly using a boric acid ester bond or a Schiff base bond, the core innovation of the invention is to realize the optimization and upgrading of the ROS response mechanism through the composite action of a dynamic synergistic network of the boric acid ester bond and the Schiff base bond and the nano silicon particles. The traditional single dynamic bond system has the defects of fixed response threshold, low self-healing efficiency and the like, and the structural stability can be maintained through bond recombination in a low-concentration ROS environment by the pH/ROS dual response coupling nano silicon rigid support function of the double dynamic bonds, and meanwhile, the improvement of swelling resistance and the integration of antibacterial functions are realized. The multicomponent synergistic effect enables the system to show continuous response capability and mechanical suitability which cannot be realized by the traditional single dynamic bond system in a complex physiological environment, and the system is different from the substantial innovation in the prior art.
3. Based on the scheme of the prior art containing boric acid ester bonds and Schiff base bonds, the self-healing capacity of the invention has remarkable innovation. The key is that the core problems of dynamic balance loss and mechanical mismatch in the traditional double bond system are solved by combining a synergistic response mechanism of double dynamic bonds (borate bonds/Schiff base bonds) with the physical support of the nano silicon particles. Specifically, existing double bond systems often only achieve simple bond coexistence, and cannot establish an adaptive balance mechanism of two dynamic bonds under the pH/ROS microenvironment, so that the healing efficiency and the mechanical recovery are contradictory (such as network collapse caused by excessive dissociation of a single bond under an acidic condition). The invention controls the dissociation threshold and recombination rate of two bonds, so that the Schiff base bond responds to ROS to trigger rapid recombination preferentially, and the borate bond maintains the stability of the network through the regulation of tetraborate ion concentration, thereby forming a staged self-healing mode. Meanwhile, the rigid supporting function of the nano silicon particles provides physical anchor points for dynamic bond recombination, so that the problem of structural dislocation in the traditional soft gel self-healing process is solved, and the synchronous improvement of the healing efficiency and the mechanical property is realized. The combined design of the double bond synergistic response and the physical reinforcement exceeds the performance boundary of the existing simple double bond system on the self-healing mechanism.
4. The core invention is that a dual dynamic network is constructed through the synergistic effect of borate bonds and Schiff base bonds, and the rigid support and multiple drug carrying sites of the nano silicon particles are combined, so that the time sequence control function which cannot be achieved by the traditional single dynamic bond system is realized. In the prior art, although a proposal containing double dynamic bonds exists, the cooperative response mechanism of the dynamic bonds is insufficient, and the time sequence precise release of the anti-inflammatory drug and the neurotrophic factor is difficult to realize in a complex physiological environment. The invention adjusts and controls the network porosity through the dynamic balance of double bonds, so that the drug release and the spinal cord injury repair stage are highly matched, the technical bottleneck of the traditional drug carrying system in time sequence adjustment and space positioning is broken through, and the invention is a substantial technical improvement which is not realized by the prior double bond-containing scheme.
