Description

本発明は、出血治療又は梗塞治療などに用いるヘモグロビン含有リポソーム懸濁液に関する。   The present invention relates to a hemoglobin-containing liposome suspension used for treatment of bleeding or infarction.

出血治療又は梗塞治療などに用いる人工酸素運搬体として、ヘモグロビン含有リポソーム懸濁液が様々に検討されて来た。ヘモグロビンベースの人工酸素運搬体はアロスリック因子を用いて、酸素親和性を制御する事が可能である。通常の血液循環における肺の酸素分圧100mmHgと組織末端の酸素分圧40mmHgの間の酸素運搬量を多くする為、酸素親和性を制御する方法が検討されて来た(特公平4-66456、特開2008-120760)。出血ショック時又は梗塞時は血流不全の為、組織末端は酸素不足に陥っており、通常の組織末端の酸素分圧40mmHgより更に低くなっている。この場合、酸素分圧100mmHgと酸素分圧40mmHgの間の酸素供給だけでなく、酸素分圧40mmHg以下の部位への酸素供給を十分に考慮する必要がある。特に梗塞部位等への適用では酸素分圧40mmHg以下への酸素供給が重要である。酸素親和性を制御する主な因子はヘモグロビンに対するアロステリック因子添加量である。また、アロステリック因子はヘモグロビン収率(仕込みヘモグロビン量に対するリポソーム化されたヘモグロビン量の割合(%))にも関与する事を、本発明者等は見出しており(特願2008-79396)、この観点からの検討は従来十分ではなかった。酸素親和性を制御する因子はアロステリック因子だけでなく、リポソーム内水相のpHも関与し、リポソーム内水相のpHには、リポソーム化前のヘモグロビンのpHだけでなくリポソーム膜形成脂質組成も影響を与える。そして、リポソーム膜形成脂質組成はリポソーム内のヘモグロビン保持機能等にも関与する。これらの因子を総合的に検討し、アロステリック因子を含有したヘモグロビン溶液を内水相とするリポソーム懸濁液において、酸素親和性を適切に制御し、且つ、ヘモグロビン収率を向上させる検討は、従来、行なわれていなかった。

Various hemoglobin-containing liposome suspensions have been studied as artificial oxygen carriers used for treatment of bleeding or infarction. The hemoglobin-based artificial oxygen carrier can control oxygen affinity using an aroslic factor. In order to increase the amount of oxygen transport between the oxygen partial pressure of the lung in the normal blood circulation of 100 mmHg and the oxygen partial pressure of the tissue end of 40 mmHg, methods for controlling the oxygen affinity have been studied (Japanese Patent Publication No. 4-66456, JP 2008-120760). At the time of hemorrhagic shock or infarction, due to insufficiency of blood flow, the end of the tissue is deficient in oxygen, which is lower than the normal partial oxygen pressure of 40 mmHg at the end of the tissue. In this case, it is necessary to fully consider not only the oxygen supply between the oxygen partial pressure of 100 mmHg and the oxygen partial pressure of 40 mmHg, but also the oxygen supply to the site of the oxygen partial pressure of 40 mmHg or less. In particular, oxygen supply to an oxygen partial pressure of 40 mmHg or less is important for application to infarcted sites. The main factor controlling oxygen affinity is the amount of allosteric factor added to hemoglobin. In addition, the present inventors have found that allosteric factors are also involved in the hemoglobin yield (ratio of the amount of hemoglobin in the form of liposomes to the amount of hemoglobin charged (%)) (Japanese Patent Application No. 2008-79396). The examination from was not enough in the past. Factors that control oxygen affinity are not only allosteric factors but also the pH of the aqueous phase of the liposome, and the pH of the aqueous phase of the liposome is affected by not only the pH of hemoglobin before liposome formation but also the liposome membrane-forming lipid composition. give. The liposome membrane-forming lipid composition is also involved in the function of retaining hemoglobin in the liposome. A comprehensive study of these factors, and in a liposome suspension with an allosteric factor-containing hemoglobin solution as the inner aqueous phase, studies to appropriately control oxygen affinity and improve the hemoglobin yield have been conducted in the past. It was not done.

ヘモグロビンベースの人工酸素運搬体において、ヒト血液を原料とする場合、赤血球からヘモグロビンを取り出す工程で、ヒト赤血球に元々存在するアロステリック因子の2,3-DPG(酸素放出能を高める燐酸化合物)が失われる。その結果として、酸素解離曲線(詳細は0010に記述)は左にシフトし、酸素運搬効率(詳細は0010に記述)は低くなってしまう問題があった。この問題を解決する為、ヘモグロビン溶液型の人工酸素運搬体では、ヘモグロビンにアロステリック因子を化学結合させたり、ヘモグロビン含有リポソーム型の人工酸素運搬体では、予めヘモグロビン溶液にアロステリック因子を添加する技術を用いている。これらは何れも通常の血液循環における肺の酸素分圧100mmHgと通常の組織末端の酸素分圧40mmHgの間の酸素運搬量を多くする為に、酸素放出能を制御する方法であった(特公平4-66456、特開2008-120760)。本発明では、このタイプを低酸素親和性〔高酸素親和性(後述)と比較して、通常の血液循環における酸素分圧領域(100mmHg〜40mmHg)において酸素を放し易い〕と呼び、天然赤血球と比較して、酸素解離曲線が右にシフトしている状態を示す。
また、人工酸素運搬体としてのヘモグロビン含有リポソームの平均粒子径は0.2μm前後である。天然赤血球(7〜8μm)と比較すると、非常に小さいので、血栓、栓塞等で血流が阻害されて、虚血により低酸素状態に陥った部位(酸素分圧が、通常の組織末端の酸素分圧40mmHgより更に低い)に対して、狭窄部位(天然赤血球では通過困難な)を通過して、或いは側副血行路や周囲の毛細血管を介して、酸素を供給する事も可能である(Circulation, 2004;100(Suppl-I):483、CirculationJ.,2004:68(Suppl-I):I-133)。また、癌組織においては、時として癌細胞の増殖に見合った血管新生を伴わないので、その血管網は無秩序で且つ、脆弱で有り、癌組織の血流は不安定で、一時的な血流遮断を繰り返している。この為、癌組織内部の細胞は低酸素状態にさらされている。この低酸素状態により、癌治療の為の放射線照射に対して抵抗性を示すが、人工酸素運搬体としてのヘモグロビン含有リポソーム懸濁液は、天然赤血球では到達不可能な癌組織内低酸素部位までに、酸素を供給出来る可能性がある(ASAIOJ.,2004:50:164)。この為、ヘモグロビン含有リポソーム懸濁液を人工酸素運搬体として、梗塞部位、ガン部位など、通常の組織末端(酸素分圧:40mmHg)より、更に低酸素状態の部位に、酸素を供給し易くする事を目的として、酸素分圧40mmHgと0mmHgの間の酸素運搬量を多くする為に、酸素放出能を制御したヘモグロビン含有リポソーム懸濁液を、本発明者等は鋭意検討して来た(特願2006-308816)。本発明では、このタイプを高酸素親和性〔低酸素親和性(前述)と比較して、通常の血液循環における酸素分圧領域(100mmHg〜40mmHg)において酸素を放し難い〕と呼び、天然赤血球と比較して、酸素解離曲線が左にシフトしている状態を示す。
In a hemoglobin-based artificial oxygen carrier, when human blood is used as a raw material, 2,3-DPG (a phosphate compound that increases oxygen release capacity), an allosteric factor originally present in human erythrocytes, is lost in the process of removing hemoglobin from erythrocytes. Is called. As a result, there is a problem that the oxygen dissociation curve (details are described in 0010) shifts to the left, and the oxygen carrying efficiency (details is described in 0010) is lowered. In order to solve this problem, a hemoglobin solution-type artificial oxygen carrier uses a technology that chemically bonds an allosteric factor to hemoglobin, or a hemoglobin-containing liposome-type artificial oxygen carrier that adds an allosteric factor to the hemoglobin solution in advance. ing. These were methods for controlling the oxygen release capacity in order to increase the amount of oxygen transported between the normal oxygen circulation pressure of 100 mmHg and the normal oxygen pressure at the end of the tissue of 40 mmHg. 4-66456, JP 2008-120760). In the present invention, this type is called low oxygen affinity (compared to high oxygen affinity (described later), oxygen is easily released in the oxygen partial pressure region (100 mmHg to 40 mmHg) in normal blood circulation) In comparison, the oxygen dissociation curve is shifted to the right.
Moreover, the average particle diameter of the hemoglobin-containing liposome as the artificial oxygen carrier is around 0.2 μm. Compared with natural erythrocytes (7-8μm), it is very small, so blood flow is blocked by thrombus, embolism, etc., resulting in hypoxia due to ischemia (oxygen partial pressure is oxygen at the end of normal tissue) It is also possible to supply oxygen through a stenotic site (which is difficult to pass with natural erythrocytes) or via collateral blood vessels and surrounding capillaries (partial pressure lower than 40 mmHg) ( Circulation, 2004; 100 (Suppl-I): 483, Circulation J., 2004: 68 (Suppl-I): I-133). In addition, in cancer tissue, there is sometimes no angiogenesis commensurate with the growth of cancer cells, so that the vascular network is disordered and fragile, the blood flow of the cancer tissue is unstable, and the temporary blood flow Repeated blocking. For this reason, the cells inside the cancer tissue are exposed to hypoxia. This hypoxic state is resistant to radiation for cancer treatment, but the hemoglobin-containing liposome suspension as an artificial oxygen carrier can reach hypoxic sites in cancer tissues that cannot be reached with natural erythrocytes. In addition, there is a possibility that oxygen can be supplied (ASAIOJ., 2004: 50: 164). For this reason, the hemoglobin-containing liposome suspension is used as an artificial oxygen carrier to make it easier to supply oxygen to sites that are hypoxic than normal tissue terminals (oxygen partial pressure: 40 mmHg), such as infarcted sites and cancer sites. In order to increase the oxygen transport amount between oxygen partial pressures of 40 mmHg and 0 mmHg, the present inventors have intensively studied hemoglobin-containing liposome suspensions with controlled oxygen release capacity. (Application 2006-308816). In the present invention, this type is referred to as high oxygen affinity (compared to low oxygen affinity (described above), it is difficult to release oxygen in the oxygen partial pressure region (100 mmHg to 40 mmHg) in normal blood circulation). In comparison, the oxygen dissociation curve is shifted to the left.

更に、出血ショックにおいては、血液が失われ、血流不全となる為、組織末端は酸素不足に陥っているので、通常の酸素分圧40mmHgより低い状態にある。従って、出血ショック治療初期においては、酸素分圧40mmHg以下の部位への酸素供給が重要であり、人工酸素運搬体が投与され、低酸素分圧領域への酸素供給及び血管内循環量が確保された後は、今度は、通常の血液循環における酸素分圧100mmHg〜40mmHgの間での酸素供給が重要となる。この点に着目し、低酸素親和性の人工酸素運搬体と高酸素親和性の人工酸素運搬体を併用して用いる事を特徴とする人工酸素運搬体も検討して来た。(特願2008-219207)。しかし、この方法は、低酸素親和性と高酸素親和性の2つの製剤が必要となる問題がある。   Furthermore, in the hemorrhagic shock, blood is lost and blood flow is insufficiency, so that the end of the tissue is deficient in oxygen, so that the oxygen partial pressure is lower than 40 mmHg. Therefore, in the early stage of hemorrhagic shock treatment, it is important to supply oxygen to sites with an oxygen partial pressure of 40 mmHg or less, and an artificial oxygen carrier is administered to ensure oxygen supply to the low oxygen partial pressure region and the amount of intravascular circulation. After that, oxygen supply at an oxygen partial pressure of 100 mmHg to 40 mmHg in normal blood circulation becomes important. Focusing on this point, an artificial oxygen carrier characterized by using a low oxygen affinity artificial oxygen carrier in combination with a high oxygen affinity artificial oxygen carrier has been studied. (Japanese Patent Application No. 2008-219207). However, this method has a problem that two preparations having low oxygen affinity and high oxygen affinity are required.

本発明では、出血治療時だけでなく、梗塞部位、ガン部位などの治療時にも、適切な酸素運搬が可能で有り、しかも、1つの製剤で、その目的を達する為、酸素分圧100mmHg〜40mmHgの酸素運搬と酸素分圧40mmHg〜0mmHgの酸素運搬がバランスよく出来る中酸素親和性の人工酸素運搬体を検討した。本発明では中酸素親和性とは、酸素解離曲線が、低酸素親和性と比較して左にシフトし、且つ、高酸素親和性と比較して右にシフトしている状態を示す。中酸素親和性は低酸素親和性と比較した場合、より低酸素領域(酸素分圧40mmHg〜0mmHg)への酸素供給を増加させ、出血ショック治療初期、梗塞部位、ガン部位への酸素供給に有利となる。高酸素親和性と比較した場合は、より通常の酸素分圧領域(酸素分圧100mmHg〜40mmHg)への酸素供給を増加させる事が出来、高酸素親和性と比較し、酸素分圧100mmHg〜40mmHgにおける酸素供給及び酸素分圧40mmHg~0mmHgにおける酸素供給のバランスが良くなる。また、酸素親和性を制御する主な因子はヘモグロビンに対するアロステリック因子量であるが、アロステリック因子添加量はヘモグロビン収率にも影響を与える事を本発明者等は見出しており、アロステリック因子添加量を減少させると、ヘモグロビン収率が増加する傾向にある。そして、酸素親和性を制御する因子はアロステリック因子だけでなく、リポソーム内水相のpHも関与している。リポソーム内水相のpHはリポソーム化前のヘモグロビンのpHだけでなくリポソーム膜形成脂質組成中のステアリン酸の影響も受ける(特開2008-120760、特願2006-308816)。また、ステアリン酸はヘモグロビン収率、内水相ヘモグロビンの保持機能、ヘモグロビンメト化率へも影響を与える(詳細は0011に記述)。今回の発明においては、これらの因子を総合的に検討し、中酸素親和性に酸素運搬能を制御し、出血治療時だけでなく、梗塞部位、ガン部位などの治療時にも適切な酸素運搬が、1つの製剤で可能であり、且つ、ヘモグロビン収率を向上させたアロステリック因子を含有したヘモグロビン溶液を内水相とするリポソーム懸濁液を提供する。 In the present invention, appropriate oxygen transport is possible not only at the time of treatment of bleeding but also at the time of treatment of infarcted sites, cancer sites, and the like, and in order to achieve the purpose with one preparation, oxygen partial pressure of 100 mmHg to 40 mmHg We investigated a medium oxygen affinity artificial oxygen carrier capable of well-balanced oxygen transportation and oxygen partial pressure of 40mmHg to 0mmHg. In the present invention, the medium oxygen affinity indicates a state in which the oxygen dissociation curve is shifted to the left as compared with the low oxygen affinity and is shifted to the right as compared with the high oxygen affinity. Compared with low oxygen affinity, medium oxygen affinity increases oxygen supply to the lower oxygen region (oxygen partial pressure 40mmHg to 0mmHg), which is advantageous for the early stage of hemorrhagic shock treatment, oxygen supply to infarcted area and cancer area It becomes. Compared with high oxygen affinity, oxygen supply to more normal oxygen partial pressure region (oxygen partial pressure 100mmHg ~ 40mmHg) can be increased. Compared with high oxygen affinity, oxygen partial pressure 100mmHg ~ 40mmHg The balance between oxygen supply and oxygen supply at an oxygen partial pressure of 40 mmHg to 0 mmHg is improved. The main factor that controls oxygen affinity is the amount of allosteric factor relative to hemoglobin, but the present inventors have found that the amount of allosteric factor added also affects the hemoglobin yield. When it is decreased, the hemoglobin yield tends to increase. The factor controlling oxygen affinity is not only the allosteric factor but also the pH of the aqueous phase in the liposome. The pH of the aqueous phase in the liposome is influenced not only by the pH of hemoglobin prior to liposome formation but also by the stearic acid in the liposome membrane-forming lipid composition (Japanese Patent Application No. 2008-120760, Japanese Patent Application No. 2006-308816). In addition, stearic acid also affects the hemoglobin yield, the retention function of the inner aqueous phase hemoglobin, and the hemoglobin metration rate (details are described in 0011). In the present invention, these factors are comprehensively examined, and the oxygen carrying capacity is controlled to the medium oxygen affinity, so that appropriate oxygen carrying is possible not only at the time of bleeding treatment but also at the treatment of infarcted sites, cancer sites, etc. Provided is a liposome suspension in which a hemoglobin solution containing an allosteric factor, which is possible with one preparation and has an improved hemoglobin yield, is used as an inner aqueous phase.

以下、本発明を具体的に説明する。
<リポソーム膜構成脂質>
本発明におけるリポソーム膜形成脂質は天然又は合成の脂質が使用可能である。特にリン脂質が好適に使用される。これらを常法に従って水素添加したものがあげられる。更にリポソーム膜形成脂質には所望によりステロール等の膜強化剤や荷電物質として高級飽和脂肪酸を添加しても良い。リン脂質としては水素添加大豆リン脂質、膜強化剤としてコレステロール、荷電物質としてステアリン酸等が好適に使用される。
The present invention will be specifically described below.
<Liposome membrane constituent lipid>
The liposome membrane-forming lipid in the present invention can be a natural or synthetic lipid. In particular, phospholipids are preferably used. These may be hydrogenated according to a conventional method. Further, higher lipophilic fatty acids may be added to the liposome membrane-forming lipid as desired, such as a membrane reinforcing agent such as sterol or a charged substance. As the phospholipid, hydrogenated soybean phospholipid, cholesterol as the film strengthening agent, stearic acid or the like as the charged substance are preferably used.

<リポソーム内水相に含有されるヘモグロビン>
本発明のリポソーム内水相に含有されるヘモグロビンは、公知の方法によりヒト期限切れ濃厚赤血球製剤より白血球、血小板、血漿及び赤血球膜を除去した後、濃縮したヒト由来濃厚ヘモグロビンが用いられる。
<Hemoglobin contained in liposome aqueous phase>
As the hemoglobin contained in the aqueous phase of liposome of the present invention, concentrated human-derived hemoglobin is used after removing leukocytes, platelets, plasma and erythrocyte membrane from a human expired concentrated erythrocyte preparation by a known method.

<リポソーム凝集抑制剤>
リポソーム表面への蛋白吸着抑制剤又はリポソーム凝集抑制剤として、公知の方法 ( 特開2008-024646など ) により、一端に疎水性を有し、且つ、他端に親水性高分子を有する化合物が用いられる。ポリエチレングリコールとリン脂質が共有結合したポリエチリングリコール結合リン脂質が好適に用いられる。
<Liposome aggregation inhibitor>
As a protein adsorption inhibitor or a liposome aggregation inhibitor on the liposome surface, a compound having a hydrophobic property at one end and a hydrophilic polymer at the other end is used by a known method (JP 2008-024646, etc.). It is done. Polyethylene glycol-linked phospholipid in which polyethylene glycol and phospholipid are covalently bonded is preferably used.

<アロステリック因子による酸素解離曲線の制御>
本発明に記載されるアロステリック因子とは、酸素解離曲線(ヘモグロビンの酸素飽和度と酸素分圧との関係を示す曲線。ヒト天然赤血球の酸素解離曲線は図1参照)に影響を与える因子である。アロステリック因子としては、特開昭57-26621号に記載のものも使用出来るが、安全性、保存安定性、価格、入手のし易さ、効果の点でフィチン酸が好ましく、フィチン酸12ナトリウムがより好ましい。アロステリック因子は酸素解離曲線を右にシフトさせ、その結果として酸素運搬効率を高くする。一般的には、天然赤血球の酸素運搬効率とは、通常の血液循環における肺の酸素分圧である100mmHgと酸素供給先である組織末端の酸素分圧40mmHgとの間のヘモグロビンの酸素飽和度の差を示す。図1が示す様に、ヒト天然赤血球では肺(酸素分圧100mmHg)で、酸素飽和度は約100%であり、組織末端(酸素分圧40mmHg)では酸素飽和度は約75%なので、通常の血液循環において、肺と組織末端との間で、酸素飽和量の約25%を組織に供給する。人工酸素運搬体としてのヘモグロビン含有リポソーム懸濁液において、ヒト血液を原料とする場合、赤血球からヘモグロビンを取り出す工程において、ヒト赤血球に元々存在するアロステリック因子の2,3-DPG(酸素放出能を高める燐酸化合物)が失われる。その結果として、酸素解離曲線は左にシフトし、天然赤血球で得られた100mmHgと40mmHgの間での酸素運搬効率が低下してしまう問題が有った。本発明者らは、予めヘモグロビン溶液にアロステリック因子を添加し、これをリポソーム化する事により、この問題を解決する方法を鋭意検討して来た(特公平4-66456、特開2008-120760)。このタイプを本発明では低酸素親和性と呼んでいる(0003に既述)。
しかし、梗塞部位、ガン部位などの治療時における酸素供給では(特願2008-79396)、末梢循環不全となり、組織末端では酸素不足に陥っており、組織末端の酸素分圧は通常の組織末端の酸素分圧40mmHgよりも更に低くなっている。酸素分圧40mmHgよりも更に低い酸素分圧の部位に酸素を供給する為には、酸素分圧40mmHgと酸素分圧0mmHgとの間での酸素運搬効率が重要であり、酸素解離曲線を適切な範囲で左にシフトさせれば、天然赤血球と比較して、酸素分圧100mmHg〜40mmHgの間では、酸素を離し難く、酸素分圧40mmHg以下の部位で酸素を離し易くなる。梗塞部位又はガン部位などの低酸素領域に運搬可能な酸素運搬量を増加させる為には、酸素解離曲線を右にシフトさせる作用のあるアロステリック因子については添加量を少なくするか、或いは添加しない技術を用いる高酸素親和性の人工酸素運搬体が有利である(特願2008-79396)。
<Control of oxygen dissociation curve by allosteric factor>
The allosteric factor described in the present invention is a factor that affects the oxygen dissociation curve (a curve showing the relationship between the oxygen saturation of hemoglobin and the partial pressure of oxygen. See FIG. 1 for the oxygen dissociation curve of human natural erythrocytes). . As the allosteric factor, those described in JP-A-57-26621 can be used, but phytic acid is preferable in terms of safety, storage stability, price, availability, and effects, and 12 sodium phytate is used. More preferred. Allosteric factors shift the oxygen dissociation curve to the right, resulting in higher oxygen carrying efficiency. In general, the oxygen transport efficiency of natural erythrocytes is the oxygen saturation of hemoglobin between 100 mmHg, the partial pressure of oxygen in the lungs in normal blood circulation, and 40 mmHg, the partial pressure of oxygen at the end of the tissue to which oxygen is supplied. Indicates the difference. As shown in Figure 1, human natural erythrocytes have a lung (oxygen partial pressure of 100 mmHg), oxygen saturation is about 100%, and at the end of tissue (oxygen partial pressure of 40 mmHg), oxygen saturation is about 75%. In the blood circulation, approximately 25% of the oxygen saturation is supplied to the tissue between the lung and the end of the tissue. In a hemoglobin-containing liposome suspension as an artificial oxygen carrier, when human blood is used as a raw material, in the process of taking out hemoglobin from red blood cells, 2,3-DPG (which enhances the oxygen release capacity) of the allosteric factor originally present in human red blood cells Phosphoric acid compound) is lost. As a result, the oxygen dissociation curve shifted to the left, and there was a problem that the oxygen carrying efficiency between 100 mmHg and 40 mmHg obtained with natural erythrocytes was reduced. The present inventors have intensively studied a method for solving this problem by adding an allosteric factor to a hemoglobin solution in advance and converting it into a liposome (Japanese Patent Publication No. 4-66456, JP 2008-120760). . This type is called low oxygen affinity in the present invention (as described in 0003).
However, oxygen supply during treatment of infarcted sites, cancer sites, etc. (Japanese Patent Application No. 2008-79396) resulted in peripheral circulatory insufficiency and oxygen deficiency at the end of the tissue. The oxygen partial pressure is even lower than 40 mmHg. In order to supply oxygen to a part with an oxygen partial pressure lower than the oxygen partial pressure of 40 mmHg, the oxygen transport efficiency between the oxygen partial pressure of 40 mmHg and the oxygen partial pressure of 0 mmHg is important, If the range is shifted to the left, it is difficult to release oxygen at an oxygen partial pressure of 100 mmHg to 40 mmHg compared to natural red blood cells, and oxygen is easily released at a site where the oxygen partial pressure is 40 mmHg or less. Technology to reduce or not add allosteric factors that act to shift the oxygen dissociation curve to the right in order to increase the amount of oxygen transportable to hypoxic regions such as infarctions or cancer sites An artificial oxygen carrier having a high oxygen affinity using benzene is advantageous (Japanese Patent Application No. 2008-79396).

出血ショック時の治療初期においては、血液が失われ、血流不全となる為、組織末端は酸素不足に陥っているので、高酸素親和性のヘモグロビン含有リポソーム懸濁液(アロステリック因子の添加量が少ないか或いは添加しない)を投与し、酸素分圧40mmHg以下の低酸素部位への効率の良い酸素供給を行なう。その後では、今度は通常の肺の酸素分圧100mmHgと組織末端の酸素分圧40mmHgとの間での酸素供給が必要となるので、低酸素親和性の人工酸素運搬体が有利となる。そこで、高酸素親和性の人工酸素運搬体投与の後で、低酸素親和性の人工酸素運搬体を投与する事を特徴とする人工酸素運搬体も考えられる(特願2008-219207)。しかし、この方法の短所としては、低酸素親和性と高酸素親和性の2つ
の製剤を必要とする事がある。
In the early stage of treatment at the time of hemorrhagic shock, blood is lost and blood flow becomes insufficiency, so the tissue ends are in a state of oxygen deficiency. Therefore, hemoglobin-containing liposome suspension with high oxygen affinity (the amount of allosteric factor added is Less oxygen or not added) to provide an efficient oxygen supply to hypoxic sites with an oxygen partial pressure of 40 mmHg or less. Thereafter, oxygen supply between the normal oxygen partial pressure of 100 mmHg of the lung and the oxygen partial pressure of 40 mmHg at the end of the tissue is required, so that an artificial oxygen carrier having a low oxygen affinity is advantageous. Therefore, an artificial oxygen carrier characterized by administering a low oxygen affinity artificial oxygen carrier after administration of a high oxygen affinity artificial oxygen carrier is also considered (Japanese Patent Application No. 2008-219207). However, the disadvantage of this method is that it requires two preparations of low oxygen affinity and high oxygen affinity.

本発明においては、出血治療、梗塞治療、ガン治療において、1つの製剤で、適切な酸素運搬が可能となる様に、低酸素親和性と比較した場合は、より低酸素領域(酸素分圧40mmHg〜0mmHg)への酸素供給を増加させ、且つ、高酸素親和性と比較した場合は、より通常の酸素分圧領域(酸素分圧100mmHg〜40mmHg)への酸素供給を増加させた中酸素親和性のヘモグロビン含有リポソーム懸濁液を鋭意検討した。中酸素親和性では、低酸素親和性と比較して、酸素解離曲線が左にシフトしており、ヘモグロビンに対するアロステリック因子添加量は少なくて済み、その結果、ヘモグロビン収率は向上する。ヘモグロビン収率が向上するだけでなく、低酸素親和性と比較して、低酸素領域(酸素分圧40mmHg〜0mmHg)への酸素供給が増加するので、出血ショック治療初期又は梗塞部位、ガン部位などの治療に有利となる。以上により、本発明において、適切に設定した前記リポソーム懸濁液中のヘモグロビン濃度(詳細は0013に記述)、及びステアリン酸濃度(詳細は0011に記述)に対する、前記リポソーム懸濁液中のアロステリック因子であるフィチン酸12ナトリウム濃度は0.033〜0.045w/v%であり、より好ましくは0.035〜0.043w/v%である。   In the present invention, in the case of bleeding treatment, infarction treatment, and cancer treatment, when compared with low oxygen affinity so that appropriate oxygen transport can be achieved with one preparation, a lower oxygen region (oxygen partial pressure of 40 mmHg) can be obtained. Increased oxygen supply to ~ 0mmHg) and increased oxygen supply to more normal oxygen partial pressure region (oxygen partial pressure 100mmHg ~ 40mmHg) when compared with high oxygen affinity The hemoglobin-containing liposome suspension was intensively studied. In the medium oxygen affinity, the oxygen dissociation curve is shifted to the left as compared with the low oxygen affinity, and the amount of allosteric factor added to hemoglobin is small, and as a result, the hemoglobin yield is improved. Not only is the hemoglobin yield improved, but oxygen supply to the hypoxic region (oxygen partial pressure 40mmHg to 0mmHg) is increased compared to low oxygen affinity, so the initial stage of bleeding shock treatment or infarcted area, cancer area, etc. It is advantageous for treatment. As described above, in the present invention, the allosteric factor in the liposome suspension with respect to the hemoglobin concentration (described in detail in 0013) and the stearic acid concentration (detailed in 0011) in the liposome suspension set appropriately in the present invention. The concentration of 12 sodium phytic acid is 0.033 to 0.045 w / v%, more preferably 0.035 to 0.043 w / v%.

<ステアリン酸組成比が内水相pH及びヘモグロビン保持機能などに及ぼす影響>
酸素解離曲線に影響を与える因子はアロステリック因子だけでなく、内水相ヘモグロビンのpHも影響を与える。内水相ヘモグロビンのpHには、リポソーム化前の赤血球膜除去濃厚ヘモグロビンのpHだけでなく、リポソーム膜構成脂質中のステアリン酸組成比も影響を与える。つまり、ステアリン酸組成比が高いと内水相pHは低下する傾向に有り、酸素解離曲線は右にシフトし、ステアリン酸組成比が低いと、ステアリン酸組成比が高い場合と比較し、内水相pHは上昇する傾向に有り、酸素解離曲線は左にシフトする。
ステアリン酸組成比は内水相pHを介して、酸素解離曲線に影響を与えるばかりでなく、内水相ヘモグロビンの保持機能にも関与する。つまり、ステアリン酸組成比が高いとヘモグロビン保持機能が低くなり、ステアリン酸組成比が低いとヘモグロビン保持機能が向上する傾向に有る。ヘモグロビン保持機能が低い場合、ヘモグロビン含有リポソーム懸濁液が生体に投与された時、血漿中にリポソーム内部のヘモグロビンが漏れ出す懸念がある。血漿中に漏れ出したヘモグロビンは、血漿中に存在するハプトグロビンにより、肝臓に運ばれ、分解、再利用されるが、一定量を越えると、ハプトグロビンによる処理能力を超えるので、可能な限り、ヘモグロビン保持機能を向上させておく必要が有る。他方、ステアリン酸組成比はヘモグロビン収率にも影響を与え、ステアリン酸組成比が高いとヘモグロビン収率が高くなり、ステアリン酸組成比が低いとヘモグロビン収率が低くなる。これらを総合的に検討する必要が有り、今回、これらの因子を総合的に考慮し、本発明におけるヘモグロビン含有リポソーム懸濁液中のステアリン酸濃度を0.41〜0.77w/v%、より好ましくは0.47〜0.71w/v%に設定した。
<Effect of composition ratio of stearic acid on inner aqueous phase pH and hemoglobin retention function>
Factors affecting the oxygen dissociation curve are not only allosteric factors, but also the pH of the internal aqueous phase hemoglobin. The pH of the inner aqueous phase hemoglobin affects not only the pH of the erythrocyte membrane-removed concentrated hemoglobin prior to liposome formation, but also the stearic acid composition ratio in the liposome membrane-constituting lipid. That is, when the stearic acid composition ratio is high, the pH of the inner aqueous phase tends to decrease, the oxygen dissociation curve shifts to the right, and when the stearic acid composition ratio is low, the internal water phase is compared with the case where the stearic acid composition ratio is high. The phase pH tends to increase and the oxygen dissociation curve shifts to the left.
The stearic acid composition ratio not only affects the oxygen dissociation curve via the inner aqueous phase pH, but also contributes to the retention function of the inner aqueous phase hemoglobin. That is, when the stearic acid composition ratio is high, the hemoglobin retention function is low, and when the stearic acid composition ratio is low, the hemoglobin retention function tends to be improved. When the hemoglobin retention function is low, when the hemoglobin-containing liposome suspension is administered to a living body, there is a concern that hemoglobin inside the liposome leaks into the plasma. Hemoglobin leaked into the plasma is transported to the liver by haptoglobin present in the plasma, where it is degraded and reused. However, if it exceeds a certain amount, it will exceed the processing capacity of haptoglobin, so that hemoglobin is retained as much as possible. It is necessary to improve the function. On the other hand, the stearic acid composition ratio also affects the hemoglobin yield. When the stearic acid composition ratio is high, the hemoglobin yield increases, and when the stearic acid composition ratio is low, the hemoglobin yield decreases. It is necessary to consider these comprehensively, and this time, considering these factors comprehensively, the stearic acid concentration in the hemoglobin-containing liposome suspension in the present invention is 0.41 to 0.77 w / v%, more preferably 0.47. Set to ~ 0.71w / v%.

<Oxygen carrying amount setting of hemoglobin-containing liposome suspension>
In the present invention, 1 mL of liposome suspension having hemoglobin as an inner aqueous phase can carry oxygen between oxygen partial pressure of 100 mmHg and oxygen partial pressure of 40 mmHg (assuming oxygen supply in normal blood circulation) or oxygen content The oxygen carrying amount that can be carried between pressures of 40 mmHg and 0 mmHg (assuming oxygen supply to the infarcted site and cancer site) is theoretically calculated according to the following three items in the present invention. (1) Hemoglobin concentration in the liposome suspension (hemoglobin is the main role of oxygen transport) (2) hemoglobin metration rate in the liposome suspension (when hemoglobin is oxidized to methemoglobin, oxygen transport capacity (3) Oxygen carrying efficiency of the liposome suspension. The oxygen carrying efficiency of the present invention is set between oxygen partial pressures of 10 mmHg and 40 mmHg for oxygen supply in normal blood circulation (difference in oxygen saturation between oxygen partial pressures of 100 mmHg and 40 mmHg in the oxygen dissociation curve). ). In addition, the oxygen partial pressure is set between 40 mmHg and 0 mmHg for oxygen supply to the infarcted site or cancer site (difference in oxygen saturation between the oxygen partial pressures of 40 mmHg and 0 mmHg in the oxygen dissociation curve).
Hemoglobin concentration in the liposome suspension: Aw / v%, hemoglobin metration rate in the liposome suspension: B%, oxygen transport efficiency of the liposome suspension (“assuming oxygen supply in normal blood circulation” ”Or“ assuming oxygen supply to the infarct or cancer site ”): Assuming C%, 1 mL of the liposome suspension is between oxygen partial pressures of 100 mmHg and 40 mmHg, or between oxygen partial pressures of 40 mmHg and 0 mmHg. The amount of oxygen DmL (37 ° C, 1 atm) that can be transported is calculated theoretically as follows.
The number of oxygen molecules that can bind to hemoglobin (moL) in 1 mL of liposome suspension is four oxygen molecules that can bind to hemoglobin.

<リポソーム懸濁液中のヘモグロビン濃度>
本発明における人工酸素運搬体としてのヘモグロビン含有リポソーム懸濁液の酸素運搬効率の主役はヘモグロビンである。前記リポソーム懸濁液中のヘモグロビン濃度が高過ぎると、ヘモグロビンをリポソーム化する為のリポソーム膜形成脂質の濃度が必然的に高くなり、生体に投与される総脂質濃度が高くなって、安全性の面で懸念がある。また、前記リポソーム懸濁液中のヘモグロビン濃度が低過ぎると、酸素運搬の主役であるヘモグロビンの絶対量が不足して、酸素運搬量設定に不利となる。従って、前記リポソーム懸濁液中の適切なヘモグロビン濃度は5.6〜6.7w/v%であり、より好ましくは5.7〜6.6w/v%である。
<Hemoglobin concentration in liposome suspension>
The main role of the oxygen carrying efficiency of the liposome suspension containing hemoglobin as the artificial oxygen carrier in the present invention is hemoglobin. If the hemoglobin concentration in the liposome suspension is too high, the concentration of liposome membrane-forming lipid for liposomal hemoglobin will inevitably increase, and the total lipid concentration administered to the living body will increase, resulting in safety. There is concern in terms. On the other hand, if the hemoglobin concentration in the liposome suspension is too low, the absolute amount of hemoglobin, which is the main oxygen transporter, is insufficient, which is disadvantageous in setting the oxygen transport amount. Therefore, the appropriate hemoglobin concentration in the liposome suspension is 5.6 to 6.7 w / v%, more preferably 5.7 to 6.6 w / v%.

<リポソーム懸濁液中のヘモグロビンメト化率>
ヘモグロビンは酸化されて、メトヘモグロビンとなると、酸素運搬能を失うので、人工酸素運搬体としてのヘモグロビン含有リポソームにおいては、ヘモグロビンの酸化防止(ヘモグロビンメト化防止)は、重要課題の1つである。ヘモグロビンのpHが過度に低下すると、ヘモグロビンの酸化が促進するので、製造工程を低温に保つと同時に、製造工程ではヘモグロビンのpH制御を行い、公知の方法(特開2006-104069)により、還元剤使用による脱酸素化及び脱酸素化状態のまま、製造バッグに無菌充填した後、脱酸素化状態を維持出来る様に外包装を行う。前記リポソーム懸濁液製造直後及び有効期間中のヘモグロビンメト化率は10%以下である。ヘモグロビンメト化率がこれより高くなると、前記リポソーム懸濁液の酸素運搬量が低下し、酸素運搬体として不利となる。
<Hemoglobin methaization rate in liposome suspension>
When hemoglobin is oxidized to methemoglobin, the oxygen carrying ability is lost. Therefore, in hemoglobin-containing liposome as an artificial oxygen carrier, antioxidation of hemoglobin (prevention of hemoglobin methation) is one of important issues. When the pH of hemoglobin is excessively lowered, the oxidation of hemoglobin is promoted, so that the manufacturing process is kept at a low temperature and at the same time, the pH of hemoglobin is controlled in the manufacturing process, and a reducing agent is obtained by a known method (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2006-104069). After aseptically filling the production bag in the deoxygenated and deoxygenated state after use, outer packaging is performed so that the deoxygenated state can be maintained. Immediately after the production of the liposome suspension and during the effective period, the hemoglobin metation rate is 10% or less. If the hemoglobin metrification rate is higher than this, the amount of oxygen transported in the liposome suspension is lowered, which is disadvantageous as an oxygen transporter.

次に本発明の実施例により具体的に説明するが、本発明は、これらの実施例に限定されるものではない。なお、前記リポソーム懸濁液の製造工程は無菌環境下での操作とした。   EXAMPLES Next, the present invention will be specifically described with reference to examples, but the present invention is not limited to these examples. In addition, the manufacturing process of the said liposome suspension was made into operation in aseptic environment.
