Description

Anti-tumor combined drug capable of killing tumor and improving immune microenvironment simultaneously
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of biological medicine, and in particular relates to a combined medicine capable of killing tumor cells and improving immunosuppressive microenvironment to enhance anti-tumor effect and application thereof, and in particular relates to an oncolytic medicine and a glucocorticoid medicine and application thereof.
Background
Cancer has become the second leading cause of death in humans, with tens of millions of cancer deaths worldwide each year, on average tens of thousands of people each day diagnosed with cancer, severely threatening human health. One of the main methods for treating malignant tumors is surgical excision, but incomplete tumor excision and circulation tumor cells in a patient can cause quite high postoperative recurrence rate, so that the survival period of the patient is greatly reduced. Therefore, effective cancer treatment methods and inhibition of postoperative tumor recurrence are current research hotspots.
Compared with the traditional treatment means of tumors, such as operation treatment, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and the like, the oncolytic therapy is a novel cancer treatment strategy with prospect, and the oncolytic therapy can exert stronger tumor inhibition and killing effects under the condition of not affecting normal cells, and simultaneously promote organisms to generate anti-tumor immune response through immune induction, so that the killing effect on tumor cells is further improved. As a novel tumor cell biological therapy, the oncolytic therapy has the characteristics of high efficiency, good killing effect, targeted therapy and the like. However, its single use is not limited by the safety issues of this therapy.
Relieving local inflammatory reaction of tumor, and improving immunity, and has inhibiting effect on tumor generation and growth. Many studies have shown that inflammation exists at various stages of the tumor, and chronic inflammation is beneficial to the occurrence of gene mutation, thus increasing the incidence of the tumor; inflammatory factors released by immune cells and inflammatory cells can reduce apoptosis of tumor cells and promote angiogenesis, thereby facilitating mass growth and propagation of the tumor cells, and even promoting metastasis of the tumor to a systemic target organ in the later stage. Therefore, the anti-inflammatory drug can enlarge the light in the aspects of inhibiting the occurrence, growth and metastasis of tumors, reducing the drug resistance of chemotherapy and improving the survival rate of cancer patients. For example, dexamethasone has been reported to greatly improve the efficacy of platinum and gemcitabine-based chemotherapeutics in the treatment of colon, lung and breast cancers, and the like.
Currently, oncolytic drugs are not ideal for their final tumor treatment effect due to their inherent immunogenicity and limited therapeutic capabilities alone. Therefore, the combined medicine of the oncolytic medicine and the glucocorticoid medicine is developed to directly kill tumor cells, promote the organism to generate anti-tumor immune response, improve local inflammation and immune microenvironment, play high-efficiency anti-tumor activity, reduce treatment risk and have wide application and development prospect.

LTX-315 peptide group: 2ml of RPMI1640 medium containing LTX-315 peptide (containing 10% FBS) at a concentration of 50uM was added, and after co-incubation for 4 hours, the above-mentioned medicated medium was aspirated, and after washing gently twice with phosphate buffer (pH 7.4), normal RPMI1640 medium (containing 10% FBS) was added.
After 24h incubation, the cells were washed 2 times with phosphate buffer (pH 7.4), blocked with 5% blocking serum, and incubated with anti-calreticulin goat anti-rabbit primary antibody for 1h at room temperature. After that, the cells were washed 2 times with phosphate buffer (pH 7.4), and incubated with the corresponding AF647 fluorescent-labeled goat anti-rabbit antibody for 40min, followed by washing 2 times with phosphate buffer (pH 7.4). Finally, the cells positive for calreticulin on the surface of the cell membrane are measured by flow cytometry in a phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) and the results are shown in figure 1 of the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 7 shows that dexamethasone in combination with tumor cell vaccine prepared from oncolytic peptide LTX-315 can effectively reduce the proportion of tumor-associated macrophages in a recurrent tumor after tumor resection in mice, thereby improving the immune environment and inhibiting tumor growth.
EXAMPLE 8 Effect of dexamethasone on the volume of recurrent tumor after murine tumor resection in combination with tumor cell vaccine prepared from the oncolytic peptide LTX-315
4T1 cells were cultured in RPMI1640 medium (containing 10% FBS) in a cell culture incubator containing 5% (v/v) CO2 at 37℃and then 4T1 cells were digested with 0.25% pancreatin (containing 0.02% EDTA), washed 2 times with phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) and counted. The cells were resuspended in sterile phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) to adjust the cell density to 4X 10 6 /ml. A50 ul cell suspension was inoculated with a sterile syringe on the pad of Balb/c mice (7-8 weeks old, purchased from Sichuan Biotech Co., ltd.). The vernier caliper measures the long diameter (a) and the short diameter (b) of the transplanted tumor, and the tumor volume (V) is calculated by the formula: v=a×b 2 /2. To grow up to 200 mm 3 At this time, mice were randomly divided into 4 groups of 6 mice each.
Tumor resection in mice was performed with different drugs given simultaneously according to the group:
1) Control group: administering physiological saline 100 ul to the tumor surgical resection site;
2) Dexamethasone group: administering 100 ul dexamethasone solution (concentration 10 mg/kg) to the tumor surgical resection site;
3) Oncolytic peptide LTX-315 is prepared to obtain a tumor cell vaccine group: 100 ul physiological saline (containing 5×10) is administered to tumor surgical excision site 5 A cell vaccine);
4) Combination group of dexamethasone and tumor cell vaccine prepared from oncolytic peptide LTX-315: 100 ul aqueous solution (containing dexamethasone 10 mg/kg and 5×10) was administered to the tumor surgical resection site 5 Individual cell vaccine).
And simultaneously recording the recurrence condition of the tumor, measuring the long diameter (a) and the short diameter (b) of the metastatic tumor by using a vernier caliper, and calculating the tumor volume (V), wherein the formula is as follows: v=a×b 2 /2. The results are shown in FIG. 8.
The result shows that the combined use of dexamethasone and the tumor cell vaccine prepared from the oncolytic peptide LTX-315 can reduce the tumor recurrence rate after the tumor resection of the mice and reduce the volume of the recurrence tumor, and the method combines oncolytic treatment and anti-inflammatory treatment, thereby providing a new treatment idea for preventing postoperative tumor recurrence.
