Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of antibodies, in particular to an anti-HVEM antibody and fragments thereof, a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Antibodies are biological macromolecules composed of heavy chains and light chains, are secreted by B lymphocytes, and play an important role in humoral immunity of organisms. The heavy chain or the light chain of the antibody molecule is respectively composed of a variable region and a constant region, wherein the variable region mainly plays a role in binding a target antigen, and the constant region mainly plays an immune regulation effect. Antibodies can be classified into IgG, igM, igE, igA, igD and the like according to spatial structure and amino acid sequence characteristics, and heavy and light chains can be further subdivided into a plurality of subtypes. For example, human IgG heavy chains can be classified as IgG1, igG2, igG3, and IgG4, and light chains can be classified as kappa and lambda. Since antibodies can specifically and efficiently bind to target molecules or target cells, regulate signaling pathways downstream of target molecules, or kill target cells by immune effects, antibodies can be developed as drugs for disease treatment. Antibodies have been developed currently as an important biotechnological drug, where monoclonal antibodies take up a substantial part, which in turn are predominantly of the IgG type, so that so-called monoclonal antibodies are often referred to as IgG type antibodies.
An IgG type antibody molecule is a tetramer consisting of 2 heavy chains and 2 light chains with a molecular weight of about 150kD via interchain disulfide bonds. Antibody molecules can be divided into variable and constant regions according to structural and functional characteristics, with the variable region acting primarily for antigen binding and the constant region acting primarily for immunological effects and transport. The variable region of an antibody can be further divided into complementarity determining region CDRs and framework regions FRs, wherein each of the heavy or light chain contains 3 CDR regions (heavy chain VH-CDR1, VH-CDR2, VH-CDR3, light chain VL-CDR1, VL-CDR2, VL-CDR 3.) and 4 FR regions flanking the CDR regions (FR 1, FR2, FR3, FR 4). The loop formed by the CDR region is the main part of the binding of the antibody molecule to the antigen, and the FR region forms the supporting structure of the CDR region by spatial folding. The specific recognition of antibodies against different antigen molecules is mainly achieved by amino acid polymorphisms of the 6 CDR regions (VH-CDR 1, 2, 3 and VL-CDR1, 2, 3) together with conformational polymorphisms of the loop. Because of the high structural similarity of the FR regions of different antibodies, when the CDR regions of one antibody are substituted for the CDR regions of other antibody molecules, if the FR regions of different antibody molecules are appropriately matched, the conformational change of the CDR regions before and after substitution is small, so that the novel variable region formed after substitution can still retain the antigen binding ability, which is the basis of CDR grafting (CDR grafting) technology. The CDR regions of the murine antibody may be recombined with the human FR regions into a humanized antibody by CDR grafting techniques to replace the CDRs of the human antibody (humanized antibody), and if the FR regions between the human-murine antibody are properly matched, the antigen binding capacity may still be maintained.
Hybridoma technology is currently an important technology in the antibody discovery process. After the antigen is used for immunizing the mouse, the B cells of the mouse develop into germinal centers in the lymphoid tissues, and the affinity of the antibody is gradually improved through somatic cell high frequency mutation (SHM). The mouse spleen cells are isolated and fused with mouse myeloma cells in vitro to form hybridomas, and hybridomas producing the target antibodies can be selected by measuring the antibody activity in the culture supernatants of the hybridoma cells. The hybridoma cells are gradually monoclonal after subcloning, mRNA of the subcloned cells is extracted for antibody variable region gene sequencing, and the amino acid sequence of the antibody variable region can be analyzed. Currently, most antibodies on the market are obtained by hybridoma technology screening. Since hybridoma technology derived antibody molecules complete the affinity maturation process in mice, those B cells that are cross-reactive with the mouse self-protein are cleared in the mouse bone marrow by "negative selection", and thus the antibody molecules are effective in reducing non-specific binding to the self-protein or its similar proteins.
Monoclonal antibodies can exert pharmacological effects through a variety of mechanisms. The antibody variable region can bind to extracellular soluble ligand, block the binding of ligand and receptor and cut off downstream signal transmission induced by ligand, so that the antibody medicine developed by taking immune cell factor as target can improve inflammatory diseases, for example, antibodies such as adalimumab, belimumab, siltuximab are already marketed in batches. The antibody constant region can exert immune regulation effects, including Antibody Dependent Cellular Cytotoxicity (ADCC) and Complement Dependent Cytotoxicity (CDC) and the like, so that antibody drugs developed by taking tumor cell surface molecules as targets can kill tumor cells, such as antibodies on the market such as rituximab, trastuzumab, cetuximab and the like, have been greatly successful. In addition, novel antibody technologies such as bispecific antibodies and Antibody Drug Conjugates (ADC) derived based on monoclonal antibodies have been developed rapidly in recent years, and have all achieved breakthrough of different degrees. Cancer and inflammatory diseases are currently the most used areas of disease for antibody drugs.
Cancer is a type of disease that is severely threatening to human health and life. With aging and changes in people's lifestyle, the incidence of cancer is increasing and also the trend of younger, so cancer treatment is always a research hotspot in the medical field. Cancer immunotherapy is a successful cancer treatment modality, and has gained widespread acceptance by the medical community. The immune system has the ability to recognize and kill tumor cells, however tumor cells can evade anti-tumor immunity through a variety of mechanisms. Immune checkpoint (checkpoint) molecules can regulate the degree of immune cell activation, playing an important role in the normal activation of the immune system of the body and in preventing autoimmunity. Overexpression of immune checkpoint molecules such as PD-1, PD-L1 and CTLA4 is one of important factors for tumor immune escape, and immune checkpoint inhibitors are hot spots of tumor immunotherapy. At present, although antibody drugs represented by PD-1, PD-L1, CTLA4 and other targets have achieved great success in clinic, the antibody drugs are effective only on a few tumors, but the curative effect on most tumors is still not ideal, so that development of antibody drugs aiming at other new targets is urgently needed to solve the unmet clinical demands.
The herpes virus invasion mediator (Herpes Virus Entry Mediator, HVEM) is one of the TNFR family members and is expressed in immune cells such as B cells, T cells, myeloid cells, NK cells and dendritic cells. In addition, HVEM is also highly expressed on the surface of tumor cells such as gastric cancer, colon cancer, melanoma, liver cancer, and the like. HVEM has a number of functionally diverse ligands, mainly including BTLA, LIGHT, LT- α, CD160, SALM5, and the like. BTLA is an important ligand of HVEM, mainly expressed in B cells, T cells and DC cells, whose cytoplasmic region contains ITIM domains, and can recruit SHP1, SHP2 to transmit inhibition signals upon binding to HVEM, inhibiting lymphocyte growth and cytokine release. Studies show that HVEM can be used as a target point of tumor immunotherapy, and BTLA/HVEM signal path inhibitor can inhibit the growth of tumors.
The invention screens a series of BTLA blocking-type anti-HVEM antibodies through hybridoma technology, has good affinity, specificity and functional activity, can block the combination of BTLA and HVEM, promotes the activation of T cells, and has application potential in the aspect of cancer treatment.

Detailed Description
The invention provides a series of BTLA blocking-type anti-HVEM antibodies, which have good affinity, specificity and functional activity, can block the combination of BTLA and HVEM, promote the activation of T cells, and have application potential in the aspect of cancer treatment.
The anti-HVEM antibody is obtained by screening by adopting a hybridoma technology. The human HVEM protein is mixed with an adjuvant and immunized into a mouse, after the serum titer is qualified, spleen cells of the mouse are separated, and after the mouse is fused with myeloma cells of the mouse in vitro, the mouse is cultured, and cell culture supernatant containing antibodies is obtained. First, hybridoma antibodies having HVEM binding activity were screened using affinity ELISA, and hybridoma antibodies capable of blocking BTLA binding to HVEM were further screened using competitive ELISA. Then, hybridoma antibodies having good binding activity to CHO-K1/HVEM cells were screened by flow cytometry, and hybridoma antibodies having good binding kinetics were screened by SPR. The invention further screens out hybridoma antibodies capable of relieving the inhibition effect of HVEM on Jurkat/BTLA/NFAT-luc cells through cell function activity, which shows that the anti-HVEM antibodies have the function of promoting T cell activation. The invention also detects the cross-reactivity of the antibody to human, monkey and mouse HVEM proteins, and discovers that the antibody 52B7 can better identify the monkey HVEM, and all the antibodies do not show binding signals with the mouse HVEM. Specific screening showed that the anti-HVEM antibodies of the invention did not have non-specific binding signals in both cell lysate ELISA and flow cytometry.
In order to obtain the amino acid sequence of the hybridoma antibody, the invention sequences the antibody mRNA of the hybridoma to obtain the variable region sequence of the hybridoma antibody, prepares a recombinant monoclonal antibody and performs functional activity verification. The antibody variable region mRNA gene is amplified by PCR through an upstream signal peptide primer and a downstream constant region primer, and further sequenced to obtain the antibody variable region gene. The expression vector is constructed by splicing and fusing the murine antibody variable region and the antibody constant region. The HEK293 cells are transfected by expression plasmids containing antibody genes for transient expression, and the purity and the content of the antibodies are confirmed by protein G affinity purification and SDS-PAGE and spectrophotometry for further verification.
The obtained recombinant monoclonal antibody is respectively verified in aspects of competitiveness, cell function activity, species cross reactivity, binding kinetics and the like according to a detection method of hybridoma screening, so that the activity of each aspect of the recombinant monoclonal antibody is ensured to accord with expectations.
The CDR regions of the anti-HVEM antibody of the invention can be spliced with the FRs of the framework regions of the humanized antibody to form the humanized antibody.
The anti-HVEM antibody of the invention can be modified into antibody fragments such as Fab (antigen binding fragment), scFv (single-chain fragment variable) and the like by conventional gene recombination technology. Antibody fragments such as Fab, scFv and the like have smaller volume and strong tissue permeability, and have unique advantages in some application fields. Fab is a heterodimer consisting of a heavy chain variable region-constant region 1 (VH-CH 1) and a light chain variable region-constant region (VL-CL) with a molecular size of 1/3 of an IgG molecule. Because of the absence of the Fc segment, the Fab-induced immune effect is significantly reduced compared to IgG and cytokine release is weaker. Antibody drugs such as abciximab, ranibizumab, etc. having Fab as structures are currently approved for the market. The scFv is formed by fusing VH and VL and a connecting peptide linker between the VH and the VL, the molecular size is only 1/6 of that of the IgG, and the scFv has the characteristics of strong tissue permeability, short half-life and the like, has unique advantages in the fields of imaging diagnosis and some treatments, and a bispecific antibody blinatumomab based on the scFv is also approved to be marketed. The antibody fragments may further be fused to other proteins, or conjugated to other small molecules, for diagnosis and treatment of diseases by targeted delivery.
The anti-HVEM antibodies of the invention may be used to further increase affinity by engineering amino acid mutations in the CDR regions. The antibody CDR regions play a critical role in the binding of antibodies to antigens, wherein the amino acids may interact with the amino acids of the antigen via hydrogen bonding, ionic bonding, van der waals forces, and the like. By mutating amino acids in the CDR regions of an antibody, the interaction of the CDRs with the antigen can be further enhanced, thereby increasing the affinity of the antibody. The application of the antibody library technology in the aspect of antibody affinity evolution is mature, an antibody mutation library can be established through strategies such as alanine hot spot mutation, error-prone PCR and the like, high-throughput screening of mutant antibodies is carried out, and the affinity evolution of the antibodies is realized in vitro.
The antibodies of the invention can be expressed using stable cell lines for large-scale production of large amounts of proteins. The gene encoding the antibody amino acid can be obtained by conventional gene recombination technology, and can be inserted into an expression vector after DNA sequence optimization, synthesis and PCR amplification. The vectors used may be plasmids, viruses or gene fragments which are customary for molecular biology. A protein secretion signal peptide gene is added at the front end of a DNA sequence for encoding the antibody so as to ensure that the antibody can be secreted outside cells. The vector sequence contains a promoter for gene expression, a protein translation initiation and termination signal, polyadenylation (polyA) and other elements. The vector contains antibiotic resistance genes and replication elements to facilitate replication of the vector in a host cell, such as a bacterium, for vector preparation. In addition, a selectable gene may be included in the vector to facilitate selection of stably transfected host cells for construction of stably expressed cell lines.
After construction of the vector containing the DNA sequence encoding the antibody, the vector may be used to transfect or transform a host cell for expression of the corresponding protein. There are various expression systems that can be used to express antibodies, which can be eukaryotic cells, or prokaryotic cells, including mammalian cells, insect cells, yeast, bacteria, and the like. Mammalian cells are the preferred system for expressing the protein because of the ease of inclusion bodies when prokaryotic cells express intact antibodies. There are various mammalian cells that can be used for large-scale expression of antibodies, such as CHO cells, HEK293 cells, NS0 cells, COS cells, etc., all of which are included among the cells that can be used in the present invention. Recombinant vectors containing genes encoding antibodies can be transfected into host cells by a variety of methods including electroporation, lipofection, and calcium phosphate transfection.
A preferred method of protein expression is by stably transfected host cell expression comprising a selectable gene. For example, after stably transfecting a host cell lacking Neomycin resistance with a recombinant vector containing a Neomycin (Neomycin) resistance gene, the concentration of Neomycin may be increased in the cell culture broth to select a stable cell strain with high expression; for example, after stably transfecting a host cell lacking DHFR with a recombinant vector containing the dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) gene, the concentration of Methotrexate (MTX) may be increased in the cell culture medium to select for stable cell lines with high expression.
Other expression systems besides mammalian cells, such as insect cells, yeast, bacteria, etc., may also be used to express the antibodies or fragments thereof of the present invention, and they are also encompassed by the host cells that can be used in accordance with the present invention. The protein expression level of these expression systems is in some cases higher than that of mammalian cells, but inclusion bodies are easily formed, and thus further protein renaturation is required.
Antibodies of the invention may also be carried and expressed using viral vectors including, but not limited to, adenovirus vectors (adenoviral vectors), adeno-associated virus vectors (adeno-associated viral vectors), retrovirus vectors (retroviral vectors), herpes simplex virus vectors (herpes simplex virus-based vectors), lentivirus vectors (lentiviral vectors), and the like.
The anti-HVEM antibodies of the invention can be used for detection of HVEM, including ELISA and flow cytometry. The anti-HVEM antibody of the present invention showed no binding signal with HVEM negative cell components of various tissue sources, which indicates that the antibody has good specificity, as analyzed by ELISA and flow cytometry. The anti-HVEM antibody 52B7 of the invention also recognizes monkey HVEM proteins, which facilitates pharmacokinetic studies and safety evaluation with primates such as cynomolgus monkeys.
The anti-HVEM antibody can relieve the inhibition of HVEM on Jurkat/BTLA/NFAT-luc cells, thereby promoting the activation of T cells and having application potential in the aspect of cancer treatment.
The antibody of the present invention can be prepared into various forms of pharmaceutical preparations according to conventional techniques of pharmacy, and liquid injections and freeze-dried injections are more preferable.
