Abstract

The present invention relates to peptide mimics of a conserved gonoccocal epitode of Neisseria gonorrhoeae, which epitope is not found on human blood group antigens. This invention also relates to methods and compositions using such peptide mimics for the prophylaxis of gonorrheal infections.

Description

The plan peptide of conserved gonococcal epitope and apply their method and composition
The application is dividing an application of No. 00817098.3, the application for a patent for invention submitted on October 27th, 2000 " the plan peptide of conserved gonococcal epitope and apply their method and composition ".
Invention technical field
The present invention relates to the plan peptide (peptide mimics) of the conserved epitope of neisseria gonorrhoeae (Neisseria gonorrhoeae), these epi-positions are not found on Antigen of human blood group.The present invention also relates to apply these and intend the method and composition that peptide prevention gonorrhoea infects.
Background of invention
Sexually transmitted disease (STD) gonorrhoea, as one of transmissible disease of the most often reporting, causes worldwide danger.Gonorrhoea is caused by a kind of gram-negative diplococci neisseria gonorrhoeae.Although this pathogenic agent main infection mucous membrane, it can be invaded tissue and avoid host's defence.Neisseria gonorrhoeae is the pathogenic agent of multiple sequela.From the male sex and women's asymptomatic mucosal infections to obvious disease syndrome.More serious syndrome comprises, for example, and the propagated gonococcal infection in the male sex and women (" DGI "), and the salpingitis in women or pelvic inflammatory disease (" PID ").Itself can cause long-term sequela salpingitis or PID, comprises ectopic pregnancy and sterile.Other important sequela (sometimes needing surgical operation) comprises recurrent infection, chronic pelvic pain, dyspareunia, pelvic adhesion and other inflammatory residue.
According to estimates, in the U.S., the direct and overhead cost for the treatment of PID and relevant ectopic pregnancy and infertility adds up 2,600,000,000 dollars (53) for 1984.Nineteen ninety, total direct expenses is estimated to reach 21.8 hundred million dollars, and overhead cost is 15.4 hundred million dollars.The sickness rate of supposing monetary inflation and PID is constant, and total cost of this disease is estimated will reach 8,000,000,000 dollars (9) in 2000.
Although be devoted to control the applicability of gonococcal infection and effective antibiotics treatment in U.S.'s public health, annual Center for Disease Control (" CDC ") has still been reported and has been approached 315000 routine gonorrhoeas (12).In all gonorrhoea cases, have significant proportion to occur in symptomless infection individuality, they are the sources (6) of most of new cases in colony.Strains is more and more popular makes the treatment of this infection more complicated (10,11,52).
Neisseria gonorrhoeae has multiple virulence factor.The surface composition of this pathogenic agent plays an important role in adhering to and invading host cell, and provides potential target for host immune response.Gonococcal infection causes part and general body fluid and cellullar immunologic response, particularly pili, porin (" Por ") or protein I (" PI "), muddy related protein (" Opa ") or protein I I, Rmp or protein I II and the fat oligosaccharides (" LOS ") (7) that exposes several compositions of antigen to showing as bacterium surface.Pili, Opa, Por and LOS all with adhere to and to invade host relevant, its surperficial exposure zone all shows sizable variation (26,45,46).In the bacterial strain of gonococcus surface composition and bacterium inter-strain variation cause about the tissue specificity of different sites and biological infection again and the hypothesis of the potential of lasting virulence.
In having symptom and asymptomatic patient, gonococcal infection shows can stimulate anti-gonococcus serum immunoglobulin level to improve.Periphery humoral response is mainly IgG (great majority is subclass IgG3), has IgM and the IgA (13) of small amount.Quantitatively, antibody response is mainly for pili, Opa albumen and LOS.Local antibody is present in sexual organ secretory product, but content reduces (48), may be for the different antigen target (27) from serum.The main antibody isotype existing in secretion is also IgG (being mainly IgG3), rather than secretory IgA (" sIgA ") (7).Also have anti-LOS antibody, but its amount is less than the antibody of antibacterial hair, Por and Opa.Although infect the patient of neisseria gonorrhoeae, may show the antibody response to multiple gonococcus antigen, neisseria gonorrhoeae separated from propagated infection (DGI) patient has resistance (38) to the germicidal action of normal human serum (" NHS ") and most of reconvalescent's serum.This seroresistance phenotype, is called stable seroresistance (" SR "), can make bioenergy avoid local defense, through mucosal barrier, and propagates by blood flow.
After the cultivation of going down to posterity, many gonococcus bacterial strains become (38) phenotype sensitivity or serum sensitivity to killing and wounding of NHS.These biologies are called as serum sensitivity (" SS ") or unsettled seroresistance.These are biological conventionally separated from the women of the performance of local inflammation severe or clinical obvious PID.Acute salpinitis, the relative disease of pathology (being caused by SS gonococcus) of PID, seldom develops into microbemia or DGI.The violent local inflammation reaction that this prompting is caused by SS gonococcus may be enough to comprise to be infected and prevents microbemia, although will pay the cost of damage local organization.SS gonococcus produces the derivative chenotactic peptide C5a (16) of complement of remarkable volume than SR gonococcus.This can cause the inflammatory reaction of polymorphonuclear leukocyte (" the PMN ") mediation that SS gonococcus produces.
The development of the antibiotics resistance strain of neisseria gonorrhoeae makes the control of this infection more and more difficult.The potential of insufficient treatment gonococcal infection has accelerated the needs of antagonism gonococcus vaccine.The prevention of the severe complication of gonococcal infection, particularly PID has been many researchists' target.But the effort of the effective anti-gonococcus vaccine of ongoing research and development runs into many difficulties.
The individual surface composition of application pathogenic agent is not succeeded as the trial of the target of conventional vaccine, and this is the antigenic variability due to them.Pili vaccine only infects and has protectiveness homologous strain (being used for producing pili vaccine), and Por inoculation is even also unsuccessful in human experimentation is attacked.In addition, neisseria gonorrhoeae shows obvious phenotype unhomogeneity, generally with 10 3in individual biology, the frequency of > 1 converts (49,50) from a kind of antigen form to another kind, and this makes the surface of this biology become the moving target of most of vaccine schemes.Although vaccine candidate strain causes antibody response, the antibody producing and immunne response do not have protectiveness widely.
LOS is a kind of important virulence determinative of neisseria gonorrhoeae.There is considerable evidence to support LOS as the effect (2,16,18,37,47) of the main target of the bactericidin for neisseria gonorrhoeae surface.LOS antibody has several important functions: kill bacterial activity, by the complement activation (2) of classics or bypass complement pathway, and OA (16).In addition, LOS is considered to the most effective gonococcus antigen (51) that induction is replied homology and the gonococcal functional antibodies of allos.
Monoclonal antibody (" mAb ") 2C7 (30) detects the LOS that seems extensively to guard and express in gonococcus clinical separation strain and derives oligosaccharides (" OS ") epi-position.Carbohydrate is generally the antigen that does not rely on T cell.When using separately as immunogen, they only cause that primary antibody replys conventionally.In addition, oligosaccharides less (< 10Tang unit) (19), may need that other biological chemistry is derivative makes them have immunogenicity.Therefore, these oligosaccharides are restricted aspect several as the purposes of vaccine candidate object.
Once image (internal image) determinant (36) in proposing to use in vaccine.Utilize mAb technology can produce the protection antibody (Ab1) for object epi-position in pathogenic agent.Energy purifying specific antibodies (Ab1), subsequently as immunogen, being used for producing may be the antiidiotypic antibody (Ab2) of the interior image of original epi-position in pathogenic agent.
According to Jerne " network " theoretical (23) prediction, with antiidiotypic antibody (Ab2) immunity of anti-primary antibody (Ab1) antigen binding site, can cause the humoral immunoresponse(HI) to name antigen-specific.The anti-antiidiotypic antibody (or Ab3) producing should with initial elementary antigen-reactive.If elementary antigen is a kind of oligosaccharides (therefore estimating to cause the immunne response that does not rely on T cell), use Ab2 (the suitable thing of protein) immunity can cause replying of T cell dependence.
The anti-idiotope that has proved mAb 2C7 produces anti-LOS antibody in mouse and rabbit, and they are gonococcida together with complement, from the also Opsonin phagolysis (20) of backer PMN of serum of the animal of this antiidiotypic antibody immunity.
Also show, the synthetic peptide of simulating name antigen by being combined with the specific antibody of an antigen of defying orders also can cause the immunne response (29,24,54) for name antigen.
Have can be used for preventing the needs of the medicament of gonorrhoea, object is to prevent gonococcus salpingitis---a kind of may with infection, infertility and ectopic pregnancy (42) old and feeble and that chronic pelvic is bitterly relevant.Another free-revving engine is pre-anti-biological from infecting but asymptomatic host propagates to another immunity companion.This is important, because quite a few of all gonorrhoea cases is asymptomatic in masculinity and femininity, and people symptomless infection, that property is active may be the main source of most of new infection.Therefore, a kind of reduction have the gonococcus vaccine of the seriousness of symptom gonorrhoea can cause higher proportion asymptomatic/have symptom case, therefore, this vaccine may promote the diffusion of gonorrhoea, unless also prevented from propagating (41).
Summary of the invention
The present invention, by the plan peptide of the extensively conservative oligosaccharides epi-position of non-existent neisseria gonorrhoeae in Antigen of human blood group is provided, has generally solved the problems referred to above.Also provide and produced according to the method for plan peptide of the present invention.
Useful in the method and composition that plan peptide according to the present invention infects at prevention neisseria gonorrhoeae.

Positive escherichia coli cloning 25 ℃ of grow overnight in the IMC substratum that contains 100 μ g/ml penbritins, then abduction delivering fusogenic peptide is 6 hours.Culture is standardized as to identical OD reading (OD 600nm=0.7), add 1% skim-milk, 150mM NaCl and 1% Alpha-Methyl mannoside, to block non-specific binding.Every kind of nutrient solution of 50 μ l equal portions and 50 μ l mAb 2C7 (final concentration 20ng/ml) incubation 30 minutes at 37 ℃, is then loaded onto 100 μ l mixed solutions the hole of using the coated micro plate of the purifying LOS (80 μ g/ml) for preparing from 15253 strains.Hole incubation 1 hour at 37 ℃, then washing.After washing hole, use the mAb 2C7 that detects combination with the anti-mouse IgG of alkaline phosphatase coupling.A kind of can not clone in contrast in conjunction with the feminine gender of mAb 2C7.
PEP1 clone shows that the maximum that mAb 2C7 is combined with LOS suppresses (66%) [SEQ IDNO:1].PEP7, PEP3, PEP4, PEP2, PEP6 and PEP5 show in conjunction with suppressing reduction respectively, [SEQ ID NOS:7,3,4,2,6,5] as shown in Figure 4.Suppress ELISA result relevant to flow cytometry result, because PEP1 also shows the maximum combined with mAb 2C7.The combination of Bacillus coli cells and mAb 2C7 and escherichia coli cloning suppress mAb 2C7, and to be combined the reduction of LOS roughly relevant.
II. the synthetic plan peptide that can be combined with mAb 2C7
Synthetic (Boston Biomolecules, MA) sequence corresponding to consensus sequence " DE_GLF " a kind of synthetic peptide (PEP1 of comprising two halfcystine flanking regions (CGP-that lays respectively at N-end and C-end with-GPC residue); IPVLDENGLFAP), be used for by suppressing the specific binding of ELISA assessment and 2C7 mAb, and determine whether the plan peptide that is characterized by Trx-fusion rotein retains the antigenicity [SEQ ID NO:10] that does not rely on fusion content.
Add halfcystine flanking region, estimate whether the cyclisation of intending peptide affects antibodies.At these, intend in peptide, cysteine residues allows to form disulfide linkage between them, produces annular and intends peptide.The peptide that these conformations limit may be similar to the epi-position that they are simulated more, therefore may have more immunogenicity.
By the dilution in sealing damping fluid (0.5M NaCl is in PBS for 1% Protalbinic acid, 0.05% polysorbas20) of these peptides, produce the mixed solution of different concns (0.1,0.5,1mg/ml).(storing concentration is 2 μ g/ml for 50 μ l equal portions of each concentration and 50 μ l mAb 2C7, in sealing, dilute in damping fluid) incubation 1 hour at 37 ℃, then 100 μ l mixed solutions are loaded onto in the hole of using the coated micro plate of the purifying LOS (80 μ g/ml) for preparing from 15253 strains.Hole incubation 1 hour at 37 ℃, then washing.After washing hole, use the mAb 2C7 that detects combination with the anti-mouse IgG of alkaline phosphatase coupling.The purifying LOS preparing from gonococcus 15253 strains is as positive control.The non-reacted 15-mer peptide sequence that above-mentioned random peptide library system produces is as negative control peptide [SEQ ID NO:9].
The dose response mode of take PEP1 suppress mAb 2C7 and LOS combination (for concentration as 0.1,0.5, the PEP1 of 1.0mg/ml, percentage suppresses to equal respectively 17%, 77%, 91%), as shown in Figure 5.Contrast 15-mer peptide synthesizes cyclic peptide (* CKSNPIHIIKNRRNIPC*) [SEQ IDNO:9].This negative control peptide can not suppress the coated dull and stereotyped combination of 2C7 mAb and purifying LOS.
Utilize the known method in this area, ring-type as above is intended peptide can further contain one or more " tail ", for coupling the second reagent, as adjuvant or carrier proteins.
III. improve the immunogenicity of intending peptide
Although little peptide may have immunogenicity, study several times report, some little peptide may lack immunogenicity and cause invalid immunne response (particularly humoral response) (3,43).Applied the immunogenicity that many strategies improve little peptide.Comprise peptide is connected to (54 with carrier proteins, 28,54), by peptide and adjuvant combination (21,22), use multiple antigenic peptide (MAP) to provide and may there is the structure (39) of immunogenic larger configuration more by force, peptide and complement proteins coupling are strengthened to humoral immunoresponse(HI) (15).
A. multiple antigenic peptide is synthetic
Multiple antigenic peptide (MAP) method is a kind of technology (44,8,43) that plan peptide is combined with the lysine residue of dendroid matrix.Peptide is connected with the amino of Methionin framework (scaffold), produces a macromole, and it provides the peptide epitopes of highdensity hope in composite surface.This method can strengthen the immunne response (39,40) to peptide.
The multiple antigenic peptide and the control peptide (Boston Biomolecules, MA) that have synthesized PEP1, and by directly and suppress ELISA and measured the combination with mAb 2C7.
Carry out the combination of solid phase ELISA assessment mAb 2C7 and multiple antigenic peptide.For Salmonella, with coated Immulon 1 flat board of multiple antigenic peptide (1 μ g/ hole), spend the night, and react with the mAb 2C7 of different concns.For suppressing ELISA, flat board is used 37 ℃ of the purifying LOS (80 μ g/ml) that prepare from neisseria gonorrhoeae 15253 strains coated 3 hours.Sealing damping fluid (0.5M NaCl is in PBS for 1% Protalbinic acid, 0.05% polysorbas20) dilution for peptide (linearity or MAP), the mixture of generation different concns.50 μ l equal portions of each concentration and 50 μ l mAb 2C7 (storing concentration is 0.4 μ g/ml, dilutes in sealing damping fluid) incubation 1 hour at 37 ℃, is then loaded onto 100 μ l mixed solutions in the hole of micro plate.Hole incubation 1 hour at 37 ℃, then washing.After the washing of hole, use the mAb 2C7 that detects combination with the anti-mouse IgG of alkaline phosphatase coupling.The purifying LOS preparing from gonococcus 15253 strains in suppressing ELISA as positive control.
The multiple antigenic peptide form of the PEP1 that contains 4 kinds of linear PEP1 molecules (" four MAP1 ") or 8 kinds of linear PEP1 molecules (" eight MAP1 ") shows and the strong combination of mAb 2C7, and contrast MAP does not show combination in Salmonella, as shown in Figure 6.Four MAP1 and eight MAP1 both suppress the combination of mAb 2C7 and LOS more strongly than linear PEP1, as shown in Figure 7.Maximum (the IC that suppresses of half of four MAP1 and eight MAP1 50) at 1.26 μ M and 0.23 μ M place, observe respectively.The IC of linear PEP1 50be 55 μ M.This may be the avidity raising of being combined with mAb2C7 due to MAP1.Contrast MAP does not show obvious inhibition.
In mouse with the anti-LOS antibody response of eight MAP1 immune induction IgG, as shown in Figure 8.Response diagram is shown in Fig. 8 (A), wherein there is no the anti-LOS antibody response of obvious IgG, until strengthen the 3rd week time, shows that eight MAP1 cause the immunne response that T cell relies in replying mouse.These results have proved with intending the immune mankind of peptide (as eight MAP1) resists the prophesy that neisseria gonorrhoeae infects.
In Fig. 8 (A), the dosage of 8 mouse emulsifications in the 0th day is received in freund's adjuvant is eight MAP1 of 50 μ g, and again accepts at the 21st day.Eight MAP1 of simulation 2C7 oligosaccharides epi-position merely hit and induce the anti-LOS antibody of IgG 3 of 8 mouse.The reinforcement for the first time that the anti-LOS of IgG in these 3 mouse replied at the 3rd week significantly raises afterwards, at the 7th week, peaks (next time of measurement), reduces afterwards.Fig. 8 (B) shows positive control experiment, and wherein 4 mouse are immune with the LOS of purifying.In these mouse, the anti-LOS of IgG tires to be increased after immunity for the first time minimum level, after reinforcement, raises.With 4 mouse (being negative control) of freund's adjuvant (C) or irrelevant eight MAP control peptides (D) immunity, cause weak or do not have the anti-LOS of IgG to reply.Fig. 9 has shown the anti-LOS antibody response of average IgG (mean value ± SE comprises and do not show the animal of replying) of all immune mouses (from the experiment shown in Fig. 8).
Figure 10 has only shown the anti-LOS antibody response of IgG of replying mouse (from the experiment shown in Fig. 8).Antibody response is defined as the anti-LOS of IgG (mean value ± SE) (higher than 4 times of the anti-LOS levels of baseline IgG) higher than 0.4 μ g/ml.After initial immunity the 7th week and the 10th week, eight MAP1 immunity reply the anti-LOS antibody horizontal of IgG that mouse produces the antibody horizontal bringing out higher than (p < 0.001) negative control antigen (independent freund's adjuvant or irrelevant eight MAP control peptides).
Figure 11 has only shown the anti-LOS antibody response of IgM of replying mouse (from the experiment shown in Fig. 8).With eight MAP1 immunity, produce the higher anti-LOS level of IgM of mouse that mouse that the anti-LOS of IgG replys can not contrast negative control antigen immune and reply.With LOS (positive control) immunity, produce than the higher anti-LOS antibody horizontal of IgM of animal of eight MAP1 or negative control antigen (independent freund's adjuvant or irrelevant eight MAP control peptides) immunity.From the serum of the mouse of eight MAP1 immunity, to neisseria gonorrhoeae, 15253 strains show the bacterial activity of killing of 2C7 specificity complement-mediated, as shown in figure 12.Figure 12 has shown a figure, shows that being exposed to mouse immune serum (the mouse immune serum final concentration of 67% volume percent) adds neisseria gonorrhoeae 15253 strains of the people's complement (people's complement final concentration of 17% volume percent) obtaining from normal people's donor adding and the survival rate of lgtG mutant (2C7 epi-position is negative) thereof.
15253 strains show 2C7 epi-position.Fat oligosaccharides (LOS) the Transglucosylase G allelotrope that 15253 lgtG strains contain destruction, this enzyme can be transferred to (4) on heptose-2 in LOS core by glucose (by α key).The forfeiture that the destruction of lgtG locus causes 2C7 epi-position to be expressed.
That carries out that standard bacteria-measuring assesses complement-mediated in mice serum kills bacterial activity (11).In this is measured, under people's complement (17% final volume) exists, mice serum (67% final volume) (from different mouse immunity as described below or non-immune) be suspended in about 2.5 * 10 in MorseA substratum (33) 3individual bacterium incubation.Then continuous jolting reaction mixture 30 minutes at 37 ℃.When 0 time and 30 minutes, the equal portions of reaction mixture are inoculated on Chocolate Agar flat board.When survival rate is expressed as 30 minutes, on flat board, the percentage of bacterium colony increases during than 0 minute.Survival rate higher than 100% in mensuration shows the growth between incubation period in 30 minutes.
With mAb 2C7 in contrast, because it can kill neisseria gonorrhoeae 15253 strains together with the complement adding, but can not kill 15253 lgtG mutant strains.As shown in Figure 12 (A), mAb 2C7 has to carrying the gonococcus of 2C7 epi-position the bacterial activity of killing.100% of 25 μ g/ml mAb 2C7 (100 μ l in cumulative volume 150 μ l reaction mixtures) mediation, 15253 strains kill and wound, but do not kill 15253 lgtG strains.
The serum that picks up from single mouse of eight MAP1 immunity (contains the anti-LOS antibody of 5.05 μ g/ml IgG, the blood of being adopted by 7-11 week merges) to the kill rate of 15253 strains demonstrations 92% (8% survival), and 15253 lgtG strains are all survived, as shown in Figure 12 (C).
The normal mouse serum (mean concns of the anti-LOS antibody of IgG is 0.1 μ g/ml) that represents the set of 20 mice serums can not kill any bacterial strain, as shown in Figure 12 (B).The control mice serum containing complement does not show 116.1% ± 4.7% survival rate (not killing and wounding) to 15253 strains, 15253 lgtG mutant is shown to 123.1% ± 3.5% survival rate (not killing and wounding).The complement source containing antibody does not show 137.9% ± 1.0% survival rate (not killing and wounding) to 15253 strains, 15253 lgtG mutant is shown to 132.5% ± 14.3% survival rate (not killing and wounding).
The serum that picks up from single mouse of LOS immunity (contains the anti-LOS antibody of 21.98 μ g/ml IgG, the blood of being adopted by 7-11 week merges) do not kill 15253 strains (179% survival) and 15253lgtG strain (133% survival), as shown in Figure 12 (D).The serum gathering single the mouse as negative control antigen immune from the freund's adjuvant with independent or irrelevant eight MAP control peptides does not kill arbitrary bacterial strain, respectively as shown in Figure 12 (E) and Figure 12 (F).
What the anti-LOS antiserum(antisera) of IgG obtaining from the mouse of eight MAP1 immunity relied on neisseria gonorrhoeae 15253 strain display densities kills and wounds, as shown in figure 13.
Figure 13 shows the figure of the anti-LOS antibody concentration of IgG to neisseria gonorrhoeae 15253 strain kill rates.When each the anti-LOS antiserum(antisera) of IgG level is only mapped to bacterium kill rate in 3 mouse from eight MAP1 immunity, obtain dose-response figure (mice serum that contains the anti-LOS antibody of 1.38,2.50 and 5.05 μ g/ml shows respectively 31%, 74% and 92% kill rate to 15253 strains).Also at 5 minutes other LOS antibody concentration places, show the kill rate of mAb 2C7, as positive control.
B. coupling A intends peptide and complement proteins C3d
Expectation by with complement factor C3d coupling, can further improve the immunogenicity of the plan peptide (eight MAP1 as described here) of gonococcal epitopes.
Studies have shown that in a large number the vital role (1,5,14,17,25,32,34 and 35) of complement proteins C3 in induction humoral immunoresponse(HI).The proteantigen that the mouse that C3 lacks relies on the T cell antibody response (34,35) that demonstration reduces as keyhole relative hemocyanin (" KLH ").The mouse that complement receptor 1-(CR1 or CD35) and complement receptor 2-(CR2 or CD21) lacks has the antibody response (1,14,32) of the T cell dependence of reduction.Further show, with the covalently bound C3d of hen's egg-white lysozyme (" HEL ") cause enhancing to the antibody response of HEL antigen (15).The mouse of the fusion protein immunization being comprised of 3 copy C3d and 1 copy HEL makes anti-HEL antibody response than separately with 10000 times of the antibody response raisings of the mouse of HEL immunity.The anti-HEL antibody response of this fusion rotein induction is approximately higher 100 times than the antibody response of the HEL induction of emulsification in freund's adjuvant.
Eight MAP1 can with C3d coupling, method is that eight MAP1 DNA sequence dnas are cloned in C3d fusion rotein box, and transforms expression system with this member.So eight MAP1-C3d fusion roteins can be expressed, purifying is also used as immunogen.In addition,, according to the known method in this area, eight MAP1-C3d gene fusion also can be used as DNA vaccination with the form of DNA.
