以下、具体的な実施例を記載するが、これら実施例は如何なる意味においても特許請求の範囲に記載の発明を限定するものではない。
Specific examples will be described below, but these examples do not limit the invention described in the claims in any way.
レンバチニブ治療(体重60kg以上:12mg/日 連日、体重60kg未満:8mg/日 連日)を行った251名の進行肝細胞癌の症例のうち、治療前後1ヶ月に造影CTを撮影していた症例31例を選択した。レンバチニブ治療前後の保存血清を用いて、Angiogenesis Assay Kit (R&D Systems)により55種類の血管新生関連タンパク質の変化を網羅的に検索した。その結果、レンバチニブ治療前後において発現強度が高く、さらに変化割合の大きいタンパク質として、IGFBP-1が同定された。
Of the 251 cases of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma who underwent lenvatinib treatment (body weight 60 kg or more: 12 mg/day, body weight less than 60 kg: 8 mg/day, daily), case 31 had contrast-enhanced CT taken 1 month before and after treatment. Selected examples. Using the stored serum before and after lenvatinib treatment, changes in 55 angiogenesis-related proteins were comprehensively searched using the Angiogenesis Assay Kit (R&D Systems). As a result, IGFBP-1 was identified as a protein with high expression intensity and a large rate of change before and after lenvatinib treatment.
治療前後の腫瘍のCT値を求め、CT値の変化率を以下のとおり算出した。CT値は、3つの異なる領域の平均値を用いた。
プレCT値=a/b (Tumor/Aorta)
a: 治療前の腫瘍のCT値
b: 治療前の大動脈のCT値
ポストCT値=c/d (Tumor/Aorta)
c: 治療後の腫瘍のCT値
d: 治療後の大動脈のCT値
CT値の変化率=ポストCT値/プレCT値
また、治療前後の血清IGFBP-1値の変化率を以下の式により求めた。
血清IGFBP-1値の変化率=治療後の血清IGFBP-1値/治療前の血清IGFBP-1値
The CT value of the tumor before and after treatment was obtained, and the rate of change in CT value was calculated as follows. CT values were average values of three different regions.
Pre-CT value = a/b (Tumor/Aorta)
a: CT value of tumor before treatment b: CT value of aorta before treatment Post CT value = c/d (Tumor/Aorta)
c: CT value of tumor after treatment d: CT value of aorta after treatment
Rate of change in CT value = post-CT value / pre-CT value
Also, the rate of change in serum IGFBP-1 levels before and after treatment was calculated by the following formula.
Rate of change in serum IGFBP-1 level = serum IGFBP-1 level after treatment / serum IGFBP-1 level before treatment
プレCT値=a/b (Tumor/Aorta)
a: 治療前の腫瘍のCT値
b: 治療前の大動脈のCT値
ポストCT値=c/d (Tumor/Aorta)
c: 治療後の腫瘍のCT値
d: 治療後の大動脈のCT値
CT値の変化率=ポストCT値/プレCT値
また、治療前後の血清IGFBP-1値の変化率を以下の式により求めた。
血清IGFBP-1値の変化率=治療後の血清IGFBP-1値/治療前の血清IGFBP-1値
The CT value of the tumor before and after treatment was obtained, and the rate of change in CT value was calculated as follows. CT values were average values of three different regions.
Pre-CT value = a/b (Tumor/Aorta)
a: CT value of tumor before treatment b: CT value of aorta before treatment Post CT value = c/d (Tumor/Aorta)
c: CT value of tumor after treatment d: CT value of aorta after treatment
Rate of change in CT value = post-CT value / pre-CT value
Also, the rate of change in serum IGFBP-1 levels before and after treatment was calculated by the following formula.
Rate of change in serum IGFBP-1 level = serum IGFBP-1 level after treatment / serum IGFBP-1 level before treatment
レンバチニブ治療後のCT値は減少し、血清IGFBP-1値は上昇していた(図1)。各症例に着目すると、レンバチニブ治療後のCT値の減少の程度とIGFBP-1値の上昇の程度に相関が見られた(図2)。治療後にIGFBP-1値が高値となった症例ほど腫瘍内部の虚血(CT値の低値)が得られていることが示された。
The CT value decreased after lenvatinib treatment, and the serum IGFBP-1 value increased (Fig. 1). Focusing on each case, a correlation was observed between the degree of decrease in CT value and the degree of increase in IGFBP-1 value after lenvatinib treatment (Fig. 2). It was shown that the higher the IGFBP-1 level after treatment, the more ischemia (lower CT value) in the tumor was obtained.
レンバチニブ治療前の血清IGFBP-1値、治療後の血清IGFBP-1値、または治療前後のIGFBP-1の変化率の大小で31症例の生存期間を層別化した。いずれも中央値で2群に分けた(治療前:22006 ng/mL、治療後:44081 ng/mL、変化率:2.05)。レンバチニブ治療後のIGFBP-1値が高い症例、およびレンバチニブ治療によるIGFBP-1値の上昇が大きい症例ほど予後が悪いことがわかった(図3)。
The survival times of the 31 cases were stratified by the serum IGFBP-1 level before lenvatinib treatment, the serum IGFBP-1 level after treatment, or the rate of change in IGFBP-1 before and after treatment. Both were divided into two groups by median value (before treatment: 22006 ng/mL, after treatment: 44081 ng/mL, rate of change: 2.05). It was found that cases with high IGFBP-1 levels after lenvatinib treatment and cases with large increases in IGFBP-1 levels after lenvatinib treatment had a worse prognosis (Fig. 3).
インビボ実験のため、肝細胞癌細胞株(Hep-55.1C)(5×106 cells)をC57BL/6マウスの背側に皮下接種し、肝細胞癌モデルマウスを作成した。このモデルマウスにレンバチニブ(10 mg/kg/day)またはソラフェニブ(30 mg/kg/day)を14日間投与した後、腫瘍を摘出し、計測した。血清IGFBP-1をELISAにより、腫瘍中のIGFBP-1のmRNA発現およびタンパク質発現をそれぞれqPCRおよびウエスタンブロッティングにより評価した。
For in vivo experiments, a hepatocellular carcinoma cell line (Hep-55.1C) (5×10 6 cells) was subcutaneously inoculated into the dorsal side of C57BL/6 mice to prepare hepatocellular carcinoma model mice. After administering lenvatinib (10 mg/kg/day) or sorafenib (30 mg/kg/day) to this model mouse for 14 days, tumors were excised and measured. Serum IGFBP-1 was assessed by ELISA, and IGFBP-1 mRNA and protein expression in tumors by qPCR and Western blotting, respectively.
レンバチニブおよびソラフェニブにより腫瘍体積および重量が減少し、腫瘍の増殖が抑制されたことが示された(図4)。また、レンバチニブおよびソラフェニブ投与により血清IGFBP-1が上昇し、さらに腫瘍中のIGFBP-1の発現が遺伝子レベルおよびタンパク質レベルで増加することが示された(図5)。
It was shown that lenvatinib and sorafenib reduced tumor volume and weight and inhibited tumor growth (Fig. 4). It was also shown that administration of lenvatinib and sorafenib increased serum IGFBP-1, and furthermore, IGFBP-1 expression in tumors was increased at the gene and protein levels (Fig. 5).
また、肝細胞癌モデルマウスのレンバチニブ投与後の腫瘍組織のIGFBP-1、CD31およびCA9(Carbonic anhydrase IX)の発現を免疫染色により評価した。CD31は血管新生マーカーであり、CA9は肝細胞癌の低酸素マーカーである。レンバチニブまたはソラフェニブ投与によりCD31の発現が減少し、CA9の発現が上昇しており、レンバチニブ投与により腫瘍の血管が減少して低酸素環境となっていることが示された(図6)。一方、IGFBP-1の主な産生部位である肝臓では、レンバチニブ投与後のIGFBP-1の上昇は認められなかった(図7)。腫瘍内が低酸素状態となることで上昇するIGFBP-1がレンバチニブもしくはソラフェニブに対する耐性に関与する可能性が示唆された。
In addition, the expression of IGFBP-1, CD31 and CA9 (Carbonic Anhydrase IX) in tumor tissue after administration of lenvatinib in hepatocellular carcinoma model mice was evaluated by immunostaining. CD31 is an angiogenic marker and CA9 is a hypoxic marker for hepatocellular carcinoma. Administration of lenvatinib or sorafenib decreased the expression of CD31 and increased the expression of CA9, indicating that the administration of lenvatinib decreased blood vessels in the tumor and created a hypoxic environment (Fig. 6). On the other hand, in the liver, which is the main production site of IGFBP-1, no increase in IGFBP-1 was observed after administration of lenvatinib (Fig. 7). It was suggested that IGFBP-1, which is elevated by intratumoral hypoxia, may be involved in resistance to lenvatinib or sorafenib.
インビトロ実験のため、レンバチニブ(0-10 μM)存在下(通常酸素)、Hep-55.1C細胞を24時間培養した。その後、IGFBP-1の発現をqPCRにより評価した。mRNAの発現はGAPDHの発現によりノーマライズした。Hep-55.1C細胞ではレンバチニブ投与によるIGFBP-1の上昇は認められなかった(図8)。
For in vitro experiments, Hep-55.1C cells were cultured for 24 hours in the presence of lenvatinib (0-10 μM) (normal oxygen). Expression of IGFBP-1 was then assessed by qPCR. Expression of mRNA was normalized by expression of GAPDH. No increase in IGFBP-1 was observed in Hep-55.1C cells due to lenvatinib administration (Fig. 8).
Hep-55.1C細胞を通常酸素(20%O2)または低酸素(2%O2)条件下で24時間培養し、IGFBP-1の発現をqPCRおよびウエスタンブロッティングにより評価した。mRNAおよびタンパク質の発現はβアクチン(ATCB)またはGAPDHの発現によりノーマライズした。Hep-55.1C細胞において、低酸素刺激によりIGFBP-1の発現が遺伝子レベルおよびタンパク質レベルで増加した(図9)。
Hep-55.1C cells were cultured under normoxic (20% O 2 ) or hypoxic (2% O 2 ) conditions for 24 hours and the expression of IGFBP-1 was assessed by qPCR and Western blotting. mRNA and protein expression were normalized by expression of β-actin (ATCB) or GAPDH. Hypoxic stimulation increased the expression of IGFBP-1 at the gene and protein levels in Hep-55.1C cells (Fig. 9).
癌細胞に対するIGFBP-1の作用を評価するため、低酸素条件下、肝細胞癌細胞株であるHuH7細胞またはHepG2細胞(5×103 cells)をIGFBP-1(0, 250, 500 ng/ml)の存在下で48時間培養し、増殖速度を評価した。細胞増殖は、MTT assayを用いて評価した。癌細胞に直接IGFBP-1を作用させても、細胞増殖の増加は認められなかった(図10)。
To evaluate the effect of IGFBP-1 on cancer cells, IGFBP- 1 (0, 250, 500 ng/ml ) for 48 h and the growth rate was assessed. Cell proliferation was assessed using the MTT assay. Direct application of IGFBP-1 to cancer cells did not increase cell proliferation (Fig. 10).
血管内皮細胞に対するIGFBP-1の作用を評価するため、ヒト血管内皮細胞(HUVEC)1×103 cellsをIGFBP-1(0, 100, 250 ng/ml)の存在下で48時間培養し、増殖速度を評価した。また、同様にIGFBP-1(0, 100, 250 ng/ml)の存在下でHUVECの管腔形成能をtube formation assayを用いて評価した。
To evaluate the effect of IGFBP-1 on vascular endothelial cells, human vascular endothelial cells (HUVEC) 1×10 3 cells were cultured in the presence of IGFBP-1 (0, 100, 250 ng/ml) for 48 hours and then proliferated. Evaluated speed. In the presence of IGFBP-1 (0, 100, 250 ng/ml), tube formation ability of HUVEC was similarly evaluated using tube formation assay.
IGFBP-1は血管内皮細胞の増殖および管腔形成を亢進することが示された(図11)。また、IGFBP-1はレンバチニブ存在下でも血管内皮細胞の増殖および管腔形成を亢進することが示された(図12)。
IGFBP-1 was shown to enhance vascular endothelial cell proliferation and tube formation (Fig. 11). In addition, IGFBP-1 was shown to enhance vascular endothelial cell proliferation and tube formation even in the presence of lenvatinib (Fig. 12).
レンバチニブ以外の血管新生阻害薬の存在下の、IGFBP-1の血管内皮細胞の増殖および管腔形成に対する作用を評価した。レンバチニブ(3 μM)、ソラフェニブ(3 μM)、VEGFR-1, 2, 3阻害薬(フルキンチニブ)(1 μM)、およびFGFR-1, 2, 3阻害薬(AZD4547)(1 μM)から選択される血管新生阻害薬と、IGFBP-1(250 ng/ml)との存在下、前記のとおり管腔形成アッセイを行った。IGFBP-1はいずれの血管新生阻害薬の存在下でも血管新生を亢進することが示された(図13)。
We evaluated the effects of IGFBP-1 on vascular endothelial cell proliferation and tube formation in the presence of angiogenesis inhibitors other than lenvatinib. selected from lenvatinib (3 μM), sorafenib (3 μM), VEGFR-1,2,3 inhibitor (fluquintinib) (1 μM), and FGFR-1,2,3 inhibitor (AZD4547) (1 μM) Tube formation assays were performed as described above in the presence of angiogenesis inhibitors and IGFBP-1 (250 ng/ml). IGFBP-1 was shown to enhance angiogenesis in the presence of any angiogenesis inhibitor (Fig. 13).
低酸素刺激によりIGFBP-1の発現が上昇する際のシグナル経路を検討した。Hep-55.1C細胞、HuH7細胞、またはHepG2細胞(1×105 cells)を、通常酸素(20%O2)または低酸素(2%O2)条件下、HIF阻害薬のYC-1 (Lificiguat)(5 μM)の存在下または非存在下に24時間培養した。IGFBP-1、HIF-1α、HIF-2αの発現をウエスタンブロットにより評価した。各タンパク質の発現はチューブリンの発現によりノーマライズした。
We investigated the signaling pathways involved in the upregulation of IGFBP-1 by hypoxic stimulation. Hep-55.1C cells, HuH7 cells, or HepG2 cells (1 × 10 5 cells) were treated under normoxic (20% O 2 ) or hypoxic (2% O 2 ) conditions with the HIF inhibitor YC-1 (Lificiguat ) (5 μM) for 24 h. Expression of IGFBP-1, HIF-1α, HIF-2α was assessed by Western blot. The expression of each protein was normalized by the expression of tubulin.
IGFBP-1の発現は低酸素刺激により上昇し、この上昇はYC-1の添加により抑制された(図14~16)。このことから、IGFBP-1の発現は、低酸素刺激、特にHIF-1αおよびHIF-2αを介したシグナル経路により発現が上昇することが示唆された。
The expression of IGFBP-1 was increased by hypoxic stimulation, and this increase was suppressed by the addition of YC-1 (Figs. 14-16). This suggests that the expression of IGFBP-1 is increased by hypoxic stimuli, particularly by signaling pathways mediated by HIF-1α and HIF-2α.
さらに、IGFBP-1の発現が血管内皮細胞の増殖および管腔形成を促進する際のシグナル経路を検討した。HUVEC(1×105 cells)を12時間無血清培養した後、IGFBP-1(250 ng/ml)を添加し、5分後および15分後のFAKおよびERK-1/2のリン酸化を評価した。各タンパク質の発現はGAPDHの発現によりノーマライズした。また、HUVEC(5×103 cells)を、IGFBP-1(250 ng/ml)の存在下で各濃度(0, 1, 3, 10 μM)のインテグリンα5/β1阻害薬(ATN-161)(CAS No: 262438-43-7)もしくはFAK阻害薬(FAK inhibitor 14)(CAS No: 4506-66-5)の存在下または非存在下に48時間培養し、MTT assayを用いた増殖アッセイを実施した。さらに、HUVEC(1×103 cells)を、IGFBP-1(250 ng/ml)とインテグリンα5/β1阻害薬(3 μM)またはFAK阻害薬(10 μM)との存在下で培養し、tube formation assayを実施した。
Furthermore, we investigated the signaling pathways through which IGFBP-1 expression promotes vascular endothelial cell proliferation and tube formation. After serum-free culture of HUVEC (1×10 5 cells) for 12 hours, IGFBP-1 (250 ng/ml) was added, and phosphorylation of FAK and ERK-1/2 was evaluated after 5 and 15 minutes. did. Expression of each protein was normalized by expression of GAPDH. In addition, HUVEC (5×10 3 cells) were treated with integrin α5/β1 inhibitor (ATN-161) at various concentrations (0, 1, 3, 10 μM) in the presence of IGFBP-1 (250 ng/ml) ( CAS No: 262438-43-7) or FAK inhibitor 14 (CAS No: 4506-66-5), cultured for 48 hours in the presence or absence, and performed a proliferation assay using the MTT assay. did. Furthermore, HUVEC (1 × 10 3 cells) were cultured in the presence of IGFBP-1 (250 ng/ml) and integrin α5/β1 inhibitor (3 μM) or FAK inhibitor (10 μM) to promote tube formation. An assay was performed.
IGFBP-1は、FAKおよびERK-1/2のリン酸化を増強した(図17)。また、インテグリンα5β1阻害薬およびFAK阻害薬は、IGFBP-1による血管内皮細胞の増殖および管腔形成の亢進を抑制した(図18および19)。IGFBP-1は、インテグリンα5/β1 - FAK - ERK を介したシグナル伝達によって血管内皮細胞の増殖および血管新生を促進することが示唆された。
IGFBP-1 enhanced the phosphorylation of FAK and ERK-1/2 (Fig. 17). In addition, integrin α5β1 inhibitors and FAK inhibitors suppressed IGFBP-1-induced enhancement of vascular endothelial cell proliferation and tube formation (FIGS. 18 and 19). IGFBP-1 was suggested to promote vascular endothelial cell proliferation and angiogenesis through signaling through integrin α5/β1 - FAK - ERK.
HuH7細胞またはHepG2細胞においてIGFBP-1を欠損させ、このIGFBP-1欠損細胞(5×106 cells)またはコントロールとしてのGFP発現細胞をBalb/cマウスの背側に皮下接種し、肝細胞癌モデルマウスを作成した。レンバチニブ(10 mg/kg/day)を14日間投与した後に腫瘍を摘出し、計測した。
IGFBP-1 was deficient in HuH7 cells or HepG2 cells, and these IGFBP-1 deficient cells (5 × 10 6 cells) or GFP-expressing cells as a control were subcutaneously inoculated into the dorsal side of Balb/c mice to form a hepatocellular carcinoma model. I made a mouse. Tumors were excised and measured after 14 days of administration of lenvatinib (10 mg/kg/day).
IGFBP-1欠損腫瘍は、コントロールの腫瘍よりも強いレンバチニブによる増殖抑制が認められた(図20、21)。IGFBP-1発現を欠損させることでレンバチニブに対する感受性が増加することが示された。
IGFBP-1-deficient tumors showed stronger growth suppression by lenvatinib than control tumors (Figs. 20 and 21). Deletion of IGFBP-1 expression was shown to increase sensitivity to lenvatinib.
HepG2細胞を上記のようにBalb/cマウスに移植したモデルマウスに、レンバチニブ(10 mg/kg/day)単独、抗IGFBP-1抗体(IGFBP1 Monoclonal Antibody; ThermoFisher Catalog # MA5-23727)(0.03 mg/kg/day)単独、またはこれらの組み合わせを14日間投与した後、腫瘍を摘出し、計測した。
HepG2 cells were transplanted into Balb/c mice as described above, and lenvatinib (10 mg/kg/day) alone, anti-IGFBP-1 antibody (IGFBP1 Monoclonal Antibody; ThermoFisher Catalog # MA5-23727) (0.03 mg/ kg/day) alone or in combination for 14 days, tumors were excised and measured.
本実験ではレンバチニブまたは抗IGFBP-1抗体単独では有意な腫瘍増殖の抑制は認められなかったが、これらを併用すると腫瘍増殖が有意に抑制された(図22)。レンバチニブと抗IGFBP-1抗体とを併用することで抗腫瘍効果が増強されることが示された。
In this experiment, lenvatinib or anti-IGFBP-1 antibody alone did not significantly suppress tumor growth, but when used in combination, tumor growth was significantly suppressed (Fig. 22). It was shown that the combined use of lenvatinib and anti-IGFBP-1 antibody enhanced the antitumor effect.
同様に、HepG2細胞をBalb/cマウスに移植したモデルマウスに、レンバチニブ(10 mg/kg/day)単独、インテグリンα5/β1阻害薬(ATN-161)(CAS No: 262438-43-7)(1 mg/kg/day)単独、またはこれらの組み合わせを14日間投与した後、腫瘍を摘出し、計測した。
Similarly, in model mice in which HepG2 cells were transplanted into Balb/c mice, lenvatinib (10 mg/kg/day) alone, integrin α5/β1 inhibitor (ATN-161) (CAS No: 262438-43-7) ( 1 mg/kg/day) alone or in combination for 14 days, tumors were excised and measured.
本実験ではレンバチニブまたはインテグリンα5/β1阻害薬単独では有意な腫瘍増殖の抑制は認められなかったが、これらを併用すると腫瘍増殖が有意に抑制された(図23)。レンバチニブとインテグリンα5/β1阻害薬とを併用することで抗腫瘍効果が増強されることが示された。これより、IGFBP-1は血管内皮細胞の細胞膜上に発現するインテグリンα5/β1と結合することで血管新生を促進すること、抗腫瘍効果の増強にはIGFBP-1とインテグリンα5/β1との結合阻害が重要であることが示唆された。
In this experiment, lenvatinib or integrin α5/β1 inhibitor alone did not significantly suppress tumor growth, but their combined use significantly suppressed tumor growth (Fig. 23). Combined use of lenvatinib and an integrin α5/β1 inhibitor was shown to enhance the antitumor effect. These results suggest that IGFBP-1 promotes angiogenesis by binding to integrin α5/β1 expressed on the cell membrane of vascular endothelial cells, and that binding of IGFBP-1 to integrin α5/β1 enhances the antitumor effect. It was suggested that inhibition is important.
