Description

CMKLR1 antagonistic polypeptide and derivative and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of biotechnology and biomedicine, in particular to female reproductive disease target CMKLR1 receptor antagonist polypeptide LRH7-C3 and derivatives and application thereof.
Background
Some of the cancers of female reproduction are related to endocrine. Such as Breast Cancer (Breast Cancer), Endometrial Cancer (Endometrial Cancer), and Ovarian Cancer (OAC). Wherein, the ovarian cancer is a malignant tumor which occurs in the ovary, 90 to 95 percent of the ovarian cancer is primary cancer, and the other 5 to 10 percent of the ovarian cancer is primary cancer metastasis of other parts to the ovary. Although the incidence of ovarian cancer in our country is not as high as that in the European and American countries, eradication-based surgical treatment, as well as cytotoxic chemotherapy, lack the effectiveness of effectively reducing the mortality of ovarian cancer. Because ovarian cancer lacks symptoms in the early stage, even if the ovarian cancer has symptoms, the ovarian cancer is not specific, and the screening effect is limited, the early diagnosis is difficult, 60 to 70 percent of cases are in the late stage, and the late stage cases have poor curative effect. Therefore, although the incidence rate of ovarian cancer is second to the cervical cancer and the endometrial cancer and is the third place of gynecological malignant tumors, the mortality rate exceeds the sum of the cervical cancer and the endometrial cancer, and the gynecological cancer is the first place of gynecological cancer, which is the biggest disease seriously threatening the health of women.
In previous clinical studies, ovarian cancer was considered to have no obvious symptomatic manifestation in early stages. However, some studies show that ovarian cancer may show clinical symptoms in early stage, such as abnormal abdominal distension, fullness, abdominal pain or back pain, lassitude, etc., but these symptoms are often ignored by patients, and metastasis often occurs when diagnosis is carried out, so that ovarian cancer is often described as "silent killer", and the prognosis of ovarian cancer is poor.
Numerous studies have shown that ovarian cancer is often transplanted to distant organs by direct spread and disseminated to the pelvic and abdominal cavities. The main pathway of ovarian cancer metastasis is intraperitoneal vegetative metastasis, which is clinically observed to be the omentum majus, with omentum metastasis being associated in 80% of women with ovarian cancer. At this time, cancer cells on the greater omentum grow at a much faster rate than at the primary lesion. The greater omentum is the peritoneum connecting the greater curvature of the stomach to the transverse colon, contains phagocytes, has an important defense function, is adipose tissue containing a large number of lipid droplets, is an important endocrine organ in the body, and participates in homeostasis. Despite the apparent fact that ovarian cancer metastasizes to the omentum majus, the mechanism has remained unclear. Because the greater omentum part is mainly adipose tissue which is the largest endocrine organ in the body and can secrete fat factors, cytokines and the like, the relationship between adipose cells in the adipose tissue and ovarian cancer cells and the mechanism thereof still need more evidence for elucidation.
With the increasing depth of research into tumors, there is increasing evidence that obesity increases the risk of mortality in cancer patients. For example, Leptin (Leptin) secreted by white adipose tissue can promote the development of breast cancer: in one aspect, leptin is able to promote breast cancer growth by activating the JAK/STAT3, MAPK-ERK1/2, or PI3K pathway; in addition, leptin can promote the generation of tumor-related blood vessels by inducing the expression of angiogenin, and leptin can also induce the transcription of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2(ErbB-2), participate in the response of insulin-like growth receptor 1(IGF-1) in triple-negative breast cancer cells, activate Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) and promote the invasion and metastasis of the cells. The current research also shows that leptin can promote the process of various cancers such as prostate cancer, thyroid cancer and the like, the expression level of the leptin is positively correlated with tumorigenesis, but the level of the leptin in pancreatic cancer is lower, and the relationship between the leptin and the tumorigenesis is not clear. It is also found that adiponectin has an inhibitory effect on the occurrence and development of tumors.
Obesity has also been reported to increase the risk of ovarian cancer in women. Adipose tissue affected ovarian cancer in obese women, and the investigator studied 216 women, 35 obese women and 108 women of normal weight, and found that obese women had lower survival and shorter survival times in patients with ovarian cancer than women of normal weight. Scientists found that in addition to their differences in cancer lethality and cancer recurrence rates, their tumor cells also behave differently, suggesting that hormones or proteins secreted by adipose tissue may cause ovarian cancer cells to proliferate rapidly. It has also been shown that IL-6 and IL-8 secreted by the adipocytes of the omentum majus in the peritoneal cavity can promote the metastasis of ovarian cancer cells thereto.
A review of the relationship of adipose tissue, and particularly the fat of the greater omentum, to ovarian cancer is provided by professor Ernst Lengyel in journal Nature Medicine, 10, 30.2011. chemerin is a recently discovered adipocyte factor, also called chemerin, playing a role in immune response, inflammatory reaction, adipocyte differentiation and maturation, lipid metabolism and the like, and is related to obesity and metabolic syndrome. The chemerin Gene, also known as Tazarotene-Induced Gene 2(Tazarotene Induced Gene2, TIG2), was first cloned in 1997 and subsequently, in 2003, Wittamer et al isolated its active protein by reverse phase high pressure liquid chromatography in ascites secondary to ovarian cancer.
In 2012, the study by Reverchon et al demonstrated that chemerin and its receptor CMKLR1 (chemokine-like receptor-1) is expressed in major human ovarian granule cells (hGCs) and human ovarian granule-like tumor cells (KGN), again mentioning the relationship of chemerin to ovarian tumors.
In 2011, 10 months, the research of natural media, which is published by the Ernst longyel doctor, finds that FABP4 plays a crucial role in the process of transferring ovarian cancer to the omentum majus, and the chemotactic factors of the omentum majus participate in the process of transferring the ovarian cancer to the omentum majus fat, and detects the chemotactic factors adiponectin, cytokines IL-6, IL-8 and the like in the omentum majus fat cells. However, there is no mention of detection of chemerin, which is also a chemokine.
Adipose factor Chemerin
The adipokine Chemerin is also known as tazarotene inducible gene 2(TIG2) or retinol receptor responsive protein 2. After cloning by Nagpal et al in 1997, Wittamer et al isolated their active proteins by reverse phase high pressure liquid chromatography in ascites secondary to ovarian cancer in 2003. The Chemerin protein precursor has 163 amino acids in length, has 6 cysteine residues, forms 3 disulfide bonds, removes an N-terminal signal peptide and several C-terminal amino acids, has biological activity, has a structure in which an activated form of Chemerin in blood contains 134 amino acids (about 16kDa), belongs to the family of cecropin/cystatin, and can be rapidly converted into an activated form by several proteases when an inflammatory reaction occurs. Chemerin is widely expressed in various tissues of the human body, mainly in white adipose tissue, placenta and liver, and binds to 3 receptors: g protein coupled receptor CMKLR 1; ② G protein coupled receptor GPR 1; ③ CCRL-2. CMKLR1 is highly expressed in macrophages, immature dendritic cells and white adipose tissues, is a main receptor for Chemerin to exert biological functions, can chemotact dendritic cells and macrophages highly expressed with CMKLR1, plays a bridge role between immunity and adaptive immunity, plays a role in immune response, inflammatory reaction, differentiation and maturation of fat cells, lipid metabolism and the like, and is related to obesity and metabolic syndrome. When Chemerin binds to CMKLR1, calcium ions are released from CMKLR1 positive cells, which inhibits cAMP aggregation and phosphorylates MAP kinase. Pretreatment with pertussis toxin can block intracellular signaling of CMKLR1, which may be associated with family G i of CMKLR 1. On one hand, Chemerin is used as a chemotactic factor to chemotact dendritic cells and macrophages, plays a bridge role between immunity and adaptive immunity, and chemotactic natural killer cells to reach inflammatory sites to participate in inflammatory reaction; on the other hand, as a novel adipokine, it is secreted and produced from adipose tissue, regulates differentiation and lipolysis of adipocytes, and promotes biological effects such as insulin signaling pathway in adipocytes. Chemerin plays an important role in the pathophysiological mechanisms of obesity and metabolic syndrome.
Miticide E1(resolvin E1)
In 2002, studies by SerhanCN et al, American scholars, who analyzed inflammatory exudates using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) to find novel trihydroxy-containing compounds (5, 12, 18-tri HEPE) and monohydroxy fatty acids derived from EPA, 18-hydroxy-EPA (18-HEPE) and 5-HEPE, showed that EPA and aspirin treatment could reduce the number of neutrophils in the mouse model of acute inflammation by 25% to 60%. When administered intravenously (100 ng/mouse), this novel trihydroxy-EPA is a potent inhibitor of neutrophil infiltration. It has the property of reducing inflammation and is named RvE 1. Through complete steric structure analysis based on the physical and biological properties of the synthesized compound, RvE1 was identified as 5S, 12R, 18R-hydroxy-6Z, 8E, 10E, 14Z, 16E-eicosapentaenoic. Bradykinin compounds (Rvs) are a group produced by EPA or DHA via epoxidation in vascular endothelial cells. According to different required substrates, D, E equal types can be divided, and each type is divided into a plurality of types. RvE1 belongs to the E family Rvs and Resolvin E1 is another lipid ligand of CMKLR1 and is capable of reducing the inflammatory response, reducing dendritic cell migration and reducing interleukin 12 production by binding to CMKLR1 and the leukotriene B4 receptor BLT 1. RvE1 can be synthesized by both aspirin-dependent and aspirin-independent pathways.
RvE1 should be stimulated to produce, act locally and be rapidly further metabolically inactivated by enzymes. In mammalian tissues, there are at least four separate pathways for RvE1 metabolism. RvE1 has a strong anti-inflammatory effect, and it can alleviate leukocyte-mediated tissue damage and down-regulate inflammatory gene overexpression. RvE1 is an important regulator of neutrophils. Nanogramme doses of RvE1 significantly reduced neutrophil infiltration at the site of inflammation in models of inflammation, including yeast-induced peritonitis and 2, 4, 6-trinitrobenzene-induced colitis. RvE1 interacts with CMKLR1 in CMKLR1 transfected cells to inhibit TNF-. alpha.induced NF- κ B activation. In vivo RvE1 can block DC migration and IL-12 production. Meanwhile, RvE1 can effectively inhibit Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from stimulating bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs) to release TNF-alpha, IL-6 and IL-23. RvE1 can block excessive platelet aggregation in pathological conditions, but does not interfere with collagen-stimulated physiological coagulation. RvE1 induces the shedding of L-selectin and down-regulates the expression of the human granulocyte and monocyte surface molecule CD 18. In addition, in mice, the RvE1 can rapidly reduce the rolling of white blood cell testicular muscle vein epithelial cells. RvE1 selectively induces epithelial cells to express the anti-adhesion molecule CD55, thereby promoting neutrophil clearance by epithelial cell surface CD 55. It can prevent transepithelial and transendothelial migration of inflammatory cells; neutrophils that promote phagocytosis of apoptosis by macrophages; down-regulating secretion of dendritic cell interleukin-12; up-regulating expression of T cell CCR 5; modulating expression of leukocyte adhesion molecules reduces leukocyte rolling; selective blockade of adenosine and the thromboxane receptor agonist U46619 promotes platelet aggregation. Has shown good prevention and treatment effects in various disease models such as rabbit periodontitis, mouse peritonitis, mouse retinopathy, colitis and the like.
CMKLR1 receptor
CMKLR1, also known as ChemR 23. In 2003, Meder et al demonstrated that Chemerin is a natural ligand of CMKLR1 by a reverse pharmacologic approach. The human CMKLR1 gene maps to 23.3 of the upper arm of chromosome 12 and consists of 3 exons and 2 introns. High expression in the adaptive immune system, wherein high expression is detected in macrophages, immature dendritic cells (immatures DCs), monocytes, neutrophils and natural killer cells, but the expression in mature DCs is reduced; thrombocytes, adipocytes, endothelial cells, oral epithelial cells, osteoclasts, vascular smooth muscle cells, and Shen glioma na cells (DBTRG-05MG) also express CMKLR 1. Activation of binding of Chemerin/RvE1 to CMKLR1 results in endocytosis which promotes intracellular calcium (Ca)2+) Release of ions, phosphorylating extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2(ERK1/2), inhibiting the accumulation of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) by binding to G protein-coupled heterotrimers; up-regulating PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, down-regulating nuclear transcription factor kappa B (NF kappa B) signaling pathway: recruitment of immature dendritic cells and macrophages to sites of inflammation allows for the regulation of various metabolic processes, inflammatory responses, and cancer.
An increasing number of researches show that Chemerin and abnormal signal of receptors thereof are closely related to the occurrence and development of cancers, and Chemerin can induce the proliferation of endothelial cells and the formation of new vascular plexus after being combined with CMKLR1 receptors on endothelial cell membranes, thereby promoting the growth and proliferation of tumor cells. Chemerin is expressed at very low levels, some even undetectable, in most tumors, but at higher levels in paracancerous tissues, as well as in distant normal tissues, such as: colorectal cancer, lung cancer (including non-small cell lung cancer), liver cancer, melanoma, gastric cancer, and ovarian cancer. Yu et al found that Chemerin up-regulates VEGF, MMP-7 and IL-6 protein levels in gastric cancer by activating p38 and ERK1/2 signaling pathways, promoting tumor invasion and migration. In 2012, a study by Reverchon et al demonstrated that Chemerin and CMKLR1 were expressed in major human ovarian granulosa cells (hGCs) and human ovarian granulosa-like tumor cells (KGN). In 2011, 10 months, the research of natural media, which is published by Ernst longyel doctor, finds that FABP4 plays a crucial role in the process of transferring ovarian cancer to the omentum majus, and the chemotactic factors of the omentum majus participate in the process of transferring ovarian cancer to omentum majus fat, and detects the chemotactic factors adiponectin and cytokines IL-6, IL-8 and the like in omentum majus fat cells, and once again indicates that: chemerin in adipose tissue may be associated with ovarian cancer cell migration.
The G Protein Coupled Receptor Superfamily (GPCRs) play an important role in the process of transferring extracellular signals into cells, and regulate and control cell movement, growth and gene transcription, which are the vital factors in the biology of the three cancers. Over the past decade, mediated signaling pathways have been shown to be key regulators of proto-oncogene signaling and to be good drug targets, and 60% of the drugs currently on the market have been designed for this receptor. While CMKLR1 is one of the members of GPCRs, no drug is currently available that is directed against CMKLR1 for the treatment of clinical cancer. Therefore, the CMKLR1 is taken as a target, and the screening of the novel anti-cancer polypeptide drug and the humanized antibody has important social significance and wide economic market.
The Phage Display Technology (Phage Display Technology) is a screening Technology of specific polypeptide or protein, which can Display the polypeptide encoded by the target gene on the Phage surface in the form of fusion protein, the displayed polypeptide or protein can maintain relatively independent spatial structure and biological activity, and direct connection is established between a large number of random polypeptides and the DNA coding sequence thereof, so that the polypeptide ligands of various target molecules (such as antibody, enzyme, cell surface receptor and the like) can be rapidly identified by in vitro affinity panning procedure. The phage display technology has been widely used for the screening of tumor diagnosis markers and anti-tumor lead compounds, the research of tumor specific antibodies and tumor drug targeted transportation, and the like.

FIG. 6 shows that in L1.2 cells highly expressing CMKLR1 (L1.2CMKLR1)+/+) In the method, chemerin can remarkably promote cells to chemotact from an upper chamber to a lower chamber, and after the same concentration of LRH7-C3 short peptide is added, the chemotactic number of the cells can be remarkably reduced, and the chemotactic effect of the chemerin on the cells is inhibited. However, in L1.2 cells which do not express CMKLR1 in the wild type, chemerin has no chemotactic effect on the cells, and the short peptide LRH7-C3 has no effect on the cells.
