Description

Recombinant interleukin 18 and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of biology, in particular to recombinant interleukin 18 and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Abnormal neovascularization behind the macular retina occurs, known as wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD); specific ocular fundus lesions in diabetic microangiopathies, such as retinal neovascularization, are known as Diabetic Retinopathy (DR). 9300 million global Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) patients in 2013, wherein 1700 million Proliferative DR (PDR) patients, 2100 million diabetic macular edema patients and 2800 million vision-threatening DR patients. The incidence rate of diabetic retinopathy is 25 percent after 5 years of diabetes attack, the incidence rate is increased to 60 percent after 10 years, and the incidence rate can reach 75 to 80 percent after 15 years. Therefore, the preparation method accelerates the development of a novel preparation for treating fundus vasculopathy, and has social benefits and huge economic benefits.
Currently, symptomatic or adjuvant therapy is mainly used clinically to control or delay the progression of AMD or DR for the lack of ideal treatment of AMD or DR, and commonly used therapeutic methods include hypoglycemic drugs, anti-inflammatory drugs, topical TNF- α antagonists, fenofibrate, Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) antagonists, RAS system inhibitors, non-enzymatic glycosylation inhibitors, combination therapies and laser treatments.
IL-18 was reported as an IFN γ -inducing factor in 1995, and it was subsequently demonstrated that systemic injection of IL-18 (50. mu.g/kg) into mice for 6 days had an inhibitory effect on FGF-induced corneal capillary formation. It has also been reported that IL-18 has a regulatory effect on the production of pathological neovasculature of the retina in an oxygen-induced model of mouse retinopathy. Doyle et al have recently reported that intraocular or systemic injection of murine IL-18(SB-528775) can prevent experimentally induced CNV. Therefore, IL-18 is feasible either alone or in combination with anti-neovascular drugs to reduce the frequency of intraocular injections. The authors also demonstrated that recombinant IL-18, both murine and human, was very safe for retinal pigment epithelial cells (RPE), a key cell for dysfunction in AMD. When patients with high IL-18 content in aqueous humor receive Lucentis monoclonal antibody to treat macular edema and retinal vein embolism, the patients can obviously improve visual effect, the patients simultaneously prove that VEGF regulates and controls IL-18 content in a mutual inhibition mode, a plurality of retina/CNV models prove that recombinant IL-18 can regulate fundus exudation of pathological models, the patients propose that IL-18 can possibly become a new method for regulating and controlling pathological angiogenesis of eyes, and the result is consistent with the reports of Doyle and the like.
In 2006, recombinant human IL-18 (trade name: Iboktadekin) was introduced into clinical trials as an antitumor agent, developed by GlaxoSmithKline. There have been many papers reporting that IL-18 is safe in human testing and no reports have been made about ocular side effects. In addition, systemic injection of IL-18 in rodents has been reported to detect higher levels of IL-18 in the retina, which suggests bioavailability of IL-18 in the retina. IL-18 administration to patients may cause transient fever of grade 1-2, but may provide rapid relief. No significant side effects were observed on the eyes of the patients at doses up to 2000. mu.g/kg. The research result of the recombinant IL-18 in ophthalmology indicates that the IL-18 may have application value to ocular pathological neovascular diseases. Since the clinical trial of IL-18 has been proven safe, IL-18 can be used in the study of adjunctive therapy for CNV and wet AMD, and it is worth further investigation as to whether it is an effective drug.
At present, the preparation of recombinant human IL-18 is mainly carried out in a bioengineering way, but due to the structural particularity of an IL-18 sequence, the recombinant human IL-18 is not easy to purify in the biosynthesis process and has low activity after the synthesis. Therefore, the problems of low purity, low recovery rate, and low yield, etc., lead to an increase in the production cost of IL-18, which in turn leads to an increase in the price.

Add 1 vial per titer to the PBMCs cells containing PBMCs described above. 5% CO at 37 ℃2Incubating for 24h, and collecting cells for culture; after washing with the medium, the cell concentration was adjusted to 2X 106And/ml. Respectively labeling with fluorescently labeled anti-CD 56 monoclonal antibody and CD69 monoclonal antibody; incubate at 37 ℃ for 2 h. The percentage of CD56, CD69 cells was determined by flow cytometry. Calculating the percentage of CD56 and CD69 cells in each group, the NK activity can be increased to 81.7% (FIG. 6);

The result shows that the rhIL-18 provided by the invention can more effectively promote the activity of NK cells.
Example 6 Effect of rhIL-B on human retinal pigment epithelial cells (ARPE-19) (MTT method)
ARPE-19 cells: ARPE-19 cells (American Type Culture Collection CRL2302, LGC Promochem) were purchased, cultured in DMEM medium-10% FCS at 37 ℃ in 5% CO2 incubator, and subcultured; making the above cells to have a cell concentration of 1 × 105Adding 96-well culture plate into the suspension; IL-18 (commercially available wild-type IL-18 and rhIL-18 of the invention) was diluted with 1640-10% FCS at concentrations of: 0.1ng/ml,1ng/ml,10ng/ml,100ng/ml and 1000 ng/ml. Toxicity controls were made with 0.1% SDS and added to the above-mentioned cells at 4 wells per titer. 5% CO at 37 ℃2After 24h of incubation, the viability of each group of cells was determined by the MTT method, the survival percentage of each IL-18 group of cells was calculated, and a specific activity curve was plotted. Percent cell survival ═ 100% x (experimental a value-background)/(control a value-background). The activity of ARPE-19 cells was calculated for each group, and the results showed that IL-18 was active on RPE cellsThe rate had no effect (fig. 7).
Example 7 inhibition assay of rhIL-18 on human endothelial cell microtubule formation
EA.hy926 cells were treated with different concentrations (0.1ng/ml,1ng/ml,10ng/ml,100ng/ml) of IL-18 for 48h in advance. Mixing Matrigel artificial Matrigel with a serum-free 1640 medium pre-cooled at 4 ℃ according to the ratio of 1: mixing at a ratio of 1, spreading on the bottom of a 24-well plate at a volume of 300 μ L per well, and adding 5% CO2Curing the glue in a constant temperature incubator at 37 ℃ for 30 min. IL-18 treated EA.hy926 cells were taken and adjusted to 1.2X 10 concentration with serum-free 1640 medium5After being inoculated into the 24-well plate paved with the glue, 1mL of the solution is cultured for 16 h in a conventional way, the formation of the microtubular structure is observed every 4h, and 5 visual fields are randomly taken to take pictures under an optical microscope (100 times). Images were analyzed using Microvision Saisam software and fig. 8 was counted for microtube-like structures of 5 fields per well.

The results show that the rhIL-18 provided by the invention can inhibit the generation of microtubule-like structures.
The foregoing is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it should be noted that it is obvious to those skilled in the art that various modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these modifications and improvements should also be considered as the protection scope of the present invention.
