Description
Related patent application
This patent application claims priority from the chinese patent application with application number 202110205868.5 filed 24 at 2 months 2021.
The application relates to a cell with a graft rejection resisting function, and also relates to a method for resisting graft immune rejection, in particular to a method for resisting NK cell immune rejection.
Due to the immunological differences between the donor and the recipient, the donor may also be recognized and challenged by immune cells in the recipient as an exogenous donor transplant, thereby inhibiting or eliminating the exogenous transplant and producing a Host Versus Graft Reaction (HVGR). By knocking out MHC molecules in the graft cells, rejection of the host T cells to the graft can be effectively resisted, but rejection of other immune cells in the host can be caused. As in allogeneic cell transplantation, depletion of MHC class I molecules from allogeneic cells results in rejection of NK cells in the host, enhancing clearance of allogeneic cells (Nat Biotechnol.2017;35 (8): 765-772.Doi: 10.1038/nbt.3860). Therefore, how to effectively prevent immune rejection of host NK cells is of great importance for developing allogeneic cell transplantation therapy.

It consists of an extracellular immunoglobulin variable region (IgV) domain transmembrane region and an intracellular domain with a classical Immunoreceptor Tyrosine Inhibitory Motif (ITIM) and an Immunoglobulin Tyrosine Tail (ITT) motif. TIGIT is expressed in lymphocytes, particularly in effector and regulatory cd4+ T cells, follicular helper cd4+ T cells, effector cd8+ T cells and Natural Killer (NK) cells (eur.j. Immunol.2015.45:2886-2897). Since CAR-T cells secrete a large amount of cytokines in the treatment of tumor patients, some embodiments of the application employ different combinations of IL-2, IL-15 and IL-12 cytokines to treat NK cells to detect changes in TIGIT + NK cell ratio.
The term "CLDN18A2" refers to the Claudin 18 (Claudin 18, CLD 18) molecule (Genbank accession number: splice variant 1 (CLD 18 A1): np_057453, NM016369, and splice variant 2 (CLD 18 A2): nm_001002026, np_ 001002026) being an intrinsic transmembrane protein having a molecular weight of about 27,9/27,72 kd. Dense proteins are integral membrane proteins located in the tight junction of the epithelium and endothelium. A network of interconnected chains of particles within the tissue membrane tightly connected between adjacent cells. In tight junctions, the occluding (occludin) and claudin are the most predominant transmembrane protein components. Because of their strong intercellular adhesion properties, they create a primary barrier that prevents and controls paracellular transport of solutes and limits the lateral diffusion of membrane lipids and proteins to maintain cell polarity. Proteins that form tight junctions are critically involved in tissue epithelial tissue architecture.
The term "transplant rejection" refers to the recognition of foreign grafts by the host's immune system as a "heteroelement" and the initiation of an immunological response to the attack, destruction, and clearance of the graft after the host has undergone allogeneic tissue, organ, or cell graft transplantation. The present application provides a cell and a method for resisting transplant rejection.
The term "graft" refers to a biological material or formulation that originates from an individual other than the host for implantation into the host. The graft may be derived from any animal source, such as mammalian sources, preferably from humans. In some embodiments, the graft may be derived from a host, such as cells derived from the host, cultured in vitro, or otherwise engineered to be re-implanted into the host. In some embodiments, the graft may be an isolated or isolated cell from an individual, such as an individual, or a cell from another individual, cultured in vitro or engineered to be implanted into a host. In some embodiments, the graft may be an organ-implanted human from a xenogeneic individual, such as from another species (e.g., mouse, pig, monkey).

Individuals of the application include, but are not limited to, humans, non-human primates (e.g., rhesus monkeys or other types of macaque), mice, pigs, horses, donkeys, cattle, sheep, rats, and any variety of poultry.
The term "immune effector cells" refers to cells involved in an immune response, such as T cells, B cells, natural Killer (NK) cells, natural Killer T (NKT) cells, dendritic cells, CIK cells, macrophages, mast cells, and the like, that produce an immune effect. In some embodiments, the immune effector cells are T cells, NK cells, NKT cells. In some embodiments, the T cells may be autologous T cells, xenogeneic T cells, allogeneic T cells. In some embodiments, the NK cells can be autologous NK cells or allogeneic NK cells.
The term "artificially modified cells with immune effector cell function" refers to cells or cell lines that have no immune effect that have acquired immune effector cell function after being artificially modified or stimulated with a stimulus. For example, 293T cells are artificially modified to have the function of immune effector cells; such as stem cells, are induced in vitro to differentiate into immune effector cells.
The "T cells" as described herein may be PBMCs, bone marrow, lymph node tissue, cord blood, thymus tissue and natural T cells obtained from infection sites, ascites, pleural effusions, spleen tissue, tumor tissue, cell populations obtained by sorting or the like having specific phenotypic characteristics, or mixed cell populations of different phenotypic characteristics, e.g. "T cells" may be cells comprising at least one T cell subset: memory stem cell-like T cells (stem cell-like memory T cells, tscm cells), central memory T cells (Tcm), effector T cells (Tef, teff), regulatory T cells (tregs), and/or effector memory T cells (Tem). In some cases, a "T cell" may be a T cell of a particular subtype, such as γδ T cells. In some cases, T cells may be obtained from blood collected from an individual using any technique known to those skilled in the art, such as ficoll (tm) isolation and/or apheresis. T cells may be any type of T cell, and may be at any stage of development, including but not limited to cd4+/cd8+ double positive T cells, cd4+ helper T cells, such as Th1 and Th2 cells, cd8+ T cells (e.g., cytotoxic T cells), tumor infiltrating cells, memory T cells, astronomical T cells, and the like.

The apheresis product typically contains lymphocytes, including T cells, monocytes, granulocytes, B cells, other nucleated leukocytes, erythrocytes and platelets. In one embodiment, the cells collected by apheresis may be washed to remove plasma molecules and placed in a suitable buffer or medium for subsequent processing steps. The T cells may be derived from healthy donors, or from individuals diagnosed with cancer.
The terms "activate" and "activating" are used interchangeably and may refer to the process by which a cell transitions from a resting state to an active state. The process may include a response to a phenotypic or genetic change in the antigen, migration, and/or functionally active state. For example, the term "activation" may refer to the process of stepwise activation of T cells. The activation process is co-regulated by the first stimulus signal and the co-stimulus signal. Activation of T cells is a dynamically changing process, the duration of which and the degree of activation are both affected by external stimuli. "T cell activation" or "T cell activation" refers to the state of a T cell that is stimulated to induce detectable cell proliferation, cytokine production, and/or detectable effector function. Using CD3/CD28 magnetic beads, either in vitro or in vivo antigen stimulation will have an effect on the degree and duration of T cell activation. In one embodiment, the engineered T cells are co-incubated with tumor cells containing a specific target antigen or activated after viral infection.
The term "peripheral blood mononuclear cells" (peripheral blood mononuclear cell, PBMC) refers to cells having a single nucleus in peripheral blood, including lymphocytes, monocytes, and the like.
The term "pluripotent stem cell" has the potential to differentiate into any of three germ layers: endoderm (e.g., gastric junction, gastrointestinal tract, lung, etc.), mesoderm (e.g., muscle, bone, blood, genitourinary tissue, etc.) or ectoderm (e.g., epidermal tissue and nervous system tissue). As used herein, the term "pluripotent stem cell" also encompasses "induced pluripotent stem cell" or "iPSC", which is a type of pluripotent stem cell derived from a non-pluripotent cell. In one embodiment, the pluripotent stem cells are derived from cells transformed by reprogramming somatic cells to have pluripotent stem cell characteristics. Such "iPS" or "iPSC" cells may be produced by inducing the expression of certain regulatory genes or by exogenously applying certain proteins.
The term "engineering" refers to a comprehensive scientific technique that applies principles and methods of cell biology and molecular biology to alter, by some engineering means, genetic material within a cell or to obtain a cellular product at the cellular global or organelle level, as desired. In one embodiment, the engineering refers to one or more alterations of a nucleic acid, such as a nucleic acid within the genome of an organism. In one embodiment, the engineering refers to alterations, additions and/or deletions of genes. In one embodiment, the engineered cell or the engineered cell may also refer to a cell having added, deleted, and/or altered genes.
The terms "genetic modification", "genetically engineered" or "modified" refer to a method of modifying a cell, including but not limited to, the modification of a gene in a coding or non-coding region or an expression regulatory region thereof by means of gene editing; or by endonuclease and/or antisense RNA techniques; or increasing the introduction of exogenous proteins and/or complexes, small molecule inhibitors to alter the protein expression levels of the gene to create a gene defect. In some embodiments, the modified cells are stem cells (e.g., hematopoietic Stem Cells (HSCs) or progenitor cells, embryonic stem cells (ESs), induced Pluripotent Stem (iPS) cells), lymphocytes (e.g., T cells), which may be obtained from a subject or donor. The cells may be modified to express an exogenous construct, such as a Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) or T Cell Receptor (TCR), which may be integrated into the cell genome.
The term "gene silencing" refers to a phenomenon in which a gene is not expressed or is underexpressed for various reasons. Gene silencing may be at the level of transcription due to DNA methylation, heterochromatin, positional effects, etc.; post-transcriptional gene silencing, i.e., inactivation of a gene by specific inhibition of the target RNA at the post-transcriptional level of the gene, including antisense RNA, co-inhibition, gene suppression, RNA interference, microrna-mediated translational inhibition, and the like; protein expression or low expression, including PROTAC, LYTAC, abTAC, ATTEC, AUTAC and membrane protein intracellular retention techniques, can also be rendered undetectable by increasing protein degradation.
By "TCR silencing" is meant that the endogenous TCR is not expressed or is underexpressed.
By "MHC silencing" is meant that endogenous MHC is not expressed or is underexpressed.
By "low expression" is herein meant that the level of protein and/or RNA expressed by the target gene in the engineered cell is lower than the level of expression prior to the cell engineering process. In particular embodiments, low expression of B2M or TCR or TIGIT refers to a decrease in expression of B2M or TCR or TIGIT in a cell of at least 1%, at least 5%, at least 10%, at least 20%, at least 30%, at least 40%, at least 50%, at least 60%, at least 70%, at least 80%, at least 90%, at least 95%, at least 99% or 100%. The expression or content of the protein in the cells may be determined by any suitable method known in the art, such as ELISA, immunohistochemistry, immunoblotting (Western Blotting) or flow cytometry using antibodies specific for B2M or TCR or TIGIT.
The term "MHC", which is a histocompatibility complex, is a generic term for all gene groups encoding biocompatible complex antigens, which are expressed in all tissues of higher vertebrates, called HLA antigens in human cells, play an important role in the transplantation reaction, and are mediated by T cells that react to the histocompatibility antigens on the surface of the implanted tissues. MHC antigens are classified into NHC class I antigens and MHC class II antigens.
The term "human leukocyte antigen" (Human leukocyte antigen, HLA) is a gene encoding the major histocompatibility complex of humans, located on chromosome 6 (6p21.31), and is closely related to the function of the human immune system. HLA includes class I, class II and class III gene portions. Antigens expressed by HLA class I and class II genes are located on cell membranes, are MHC-I (HLA-A, HLA-B, HLA-C site encoding) and MHC-II (HLA-D region encoding), are distributed on almost all cell surfaces of the body, are heterodimers composed of heavy chains (alpha chains) and beta 2 microglobulin (B2M), and class II is glycoprotein localized on the surfaces of macrophages and B lymphocytes.
The term "B2M" is a beta-2 microglobulin, the light chain of an MHC class I molecule. In humans, B2M is encoded by the B2M gene located on chromosome 15, as opposed to other MHC genes located as a cluster of genes on chromosome 6. Studies have shown that when mutations occur in the B2M gene, hematopoietic grafts from mice lacking normal cell surface MHC I expression are rejected by NK cells in normal mice, suggesting that defective expression of MHC I molecules renders the cells susceptible to rejection by the host immune system (Bix et al 1991).
The term "T Cell Receptor (TCR)" mediates T cell recognition of specific Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) -restricted peptide antigens, including classical TCR receptors and optimized TCR receptors. Classical TCR receptors, consisting of two peptide chains, a and β, each of which can be divided into a variable region (V region), a constant region (C region), a transmembrane region, a cytoplasmic region, etc., where antigen specificity resides, V regions (vα, vβ) each having three hypervariable regions CDR1, CDR2, CDR3, in one aspect, T cells expressing classical TCRs can induce T cell TCR specificity for a target antigen by, for example, antigen stimulation of T cells. TCRs fall into two categories: TCR1 and TCR2; TCR1 consists of two chains, γ and δ, and TCR2 consists of two chains, α and β. The term "TRAC" refers to the constant region of the TCR alpha chain.
The term "gene editing" refers to genetic engineering techniques that use site-specific nucleases to insert, knock out, modify or replace DNA at specific locations in the genome of an organism, altering the DNA sequence. This technique is sometimes referred to as "gene clipping" or "genome engineering". Gene editing can be used to achieve accurate, efficient gene knockouts or gene knockins.
Nuclease-directed genomic targeted modification techniques typically consist of a DNA recognition domain and a non-specific endonuclease domain, with the recognition of the target site by the DNA recognition domain, localization of the nuclease to the genomic region to be edited, and subsequent cleavage of the DNA duplex by the non-specific endonuclease, causing DNA fragmentation self-repair mechanisms, thereby initiating mutation of the gene sequence and promoting homologous recombination. The endonuclease may be a Meganuclease (Meganuclease), a zinc finger nuclease, a CRISPR/Cas9 nuclease, an MBBBD-nuclease, or a TALEN-nuclease. In preferred embodiments, the endonuclease is a CRISPR/Cas9 nuclease, TALEN-nuclease. Gene knockout techniques using nucleases include CRISPR/Cas9 techniques, ZFN techniques, TALE techniques, and TALE-CRISPR/Cas9 techniques, base Editor techniques, guided editing techniques, and/or homing endonuclease techniques.
The term "artificial zinc finger nuclease (Zinc Finger Nucleases, ZFN)" technology, which is a first generation nuclease site-directed modification technology, utilizes a zinc finger motif (motif) capable of specifically recognizing a triplet DNA fragment instead of a base as a basic unit for recognizing a specific DNA sequence. The most classical zinc finger nucleases fuse a non-specific endonuclease fokl to a zinc finger containing domain, naturally with the aim of cleaving a specific sequence.
The term "Transcription Activator Like Effector (TALE)" has DNA binding specificity, has a module capable of specifically recognizing a base, and is simple and convenient to operate. The TALE-DNA binding domain consists of tandem repeat units, most of which contain 3 4 amino acids, with amino acids 12 and 13 of the unit designed as variable regions (repeat variable residues, RVD). The RVD of TALE recognizes 4 bases of DNA sequence with high specificity, and amino acid 13 is directly combined with DNA base specificity. Can construct specific TALEDN recognition binding domain at any site according to DNA sequence, and can be widely used for gene sequence mutation modification, gene targeting and the like. The DNA target sequence was set, the TALE-DNA binding domain was assembled, and the non-specific DNA cleavage domain of Fok I endonuclease was fused, and assembled into TALE nuclease (tanscription activator-like effector nucleases, TALENs). TALENs target binding to DNA, creating DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs).
CRISPER/Cas9 is a third generation gene editing technology. One embodiment of the application employs CRISPR/Cas9 technology to prepare UCAR-T cells. The term "CRISPR (Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromicrepeats)" refers to short palindromic repeats at regular clustered intervals. The term "Cas9 (CRISPRassociated nuclease)" is a CRISPR-associated nuclease, a RNA-guided technique for editing a targeted gene with a Cas9 nuclease. The Cas9 enzyme may be a wild-type Cas9 or a engineered Cas9. The "CRISPER/Cas9 system" is collectively referred to as transcripts and other elements involved in the expression of or directing the activity of Cas9 enzyme genes, including sequences encoding Cas9 genes, tracr (transactivation CRISPR) sequences (e.g., tracrRNA or active moiety tracrRNA), tracr mate sequences (covering "orthographic repeats" and partial orthographic repeats of tracrRNA processing in the context of endogenous CRISPR systems), guide sequences (also referred to as "spacers" in the context of endogenous CRISPR systems, i.e., grnas), or other sequences and transcripts from CRISPR loci. CRISPR systems are characterized by elements that promote the formation of CRISPR complexes (also referred to as the forebay in the context of endogenous CRISPR systems) at the site of a target sequence. In the context of CRISPR complex formation, "target sequence" refers to a sequence to which a guide sequence is designed to have complementarity, wherein hybridization between the target sequence and the guide sequence facilitates CRISPR complex formation. Complete complementarity is not necessary provided that sufficient complementarity exists to cause hybridization and promote the formation of a CRISPR complex. After CRISPR complex is formed, specific loci of a genome can be cut under the action of cas9 enzyme, and gene mutation is introduced; expression of the gene may also be regulated, such as by activation or inhibition. A target sequence may comprise any polynucleotide, such as a DNA or RNA polynucleotide. In some embodiments, the target sequence is located in the nucleus or cytoplasm of the cell.
In general, a guide sequence (gRNA) is any ribonucleotide sequence that has sufficient complementarity to a target polynucleotide sequence to hybridize to the target sequence and direct the sequence-specific binding of a CRISPR complex to the target sequence. The application relates to a sequence of gRNA, which can be a targeted DNA sequence or a complete Cas9 guide sequence formed by ribonucleotides corresponding to the DNA and crRNA, tracrRNA. gRNA is used to guide, bind or recognize Cas enzymes. In some embodiments, the degree of complementarity between a guide sequence and its corresponding target sequence is about or more than about 50%, 60%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 97.5%, 99% or more when optimally aligned using a suitable alignment algorithm. The optimal alignment may be determined using any suitable algorithm for aligning sequences, non-limiting examples of which include the Smith-Waterman algorithm, the Needman-Wunsch algorithm, the Basil Yu Baluo Siderurg-Wheater transform (Burley-Wheeler Transform) algorithm (e.g., the Burley-Wheater alignment tool (Burrows Wheeler Aligner)), clustalW, clustal X, BLAT, novoalign (Novocraft technologies), ELAND (Ill.) by Ill. The term "sgRNA" refers to short gRNA.
In some embodiments, the CRISPR enzyme is part of a fusion protein comprising one or more heterologous protein domains (e.g., about or more than about 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 or more domains other than the CRISPR enzyme). The CRISPR enzyme fusion protein may comprise any other protein, and optionally a linker sequence between any two domains. Examples of protein domains that can be fused to a CRISPR enzyme include, but are not limited to, epitope tags, reporter sequences, and one or more protein domains having the following activities: methylase activity, demethylase activity, transcriptional activation activity, transcriptional repression activity, transcriptional release factor activity, histone modification activity, RNA cleavage activity and nucleic acid binding activity. Non-limiting examples of epitope tags include histidine (His) tags, V5 tags, FLAG tags, influenza virus Hemagglutinin (HA) tags, myc tags, VSV-G tags, and thioredoxin (Trx) tags.

The present application provides chimeric antigen receptors comprising an extracellular domain, a transmembrane region, and an intracellular domain as described herein. Typically, the extracellular domain of the CAR is derived from a mouse or humanized or human monoclonal antibody.

In some embodiments, the extracellular domain may comprise scFv, fab, or natural ligand, and any derivatives thereof. An extracellular domain may refer to a molecule other than an intact antibody, which may comprise a portion of an intact antibody and may bind to an antigen to which the intact antibody binds.

In some embodiments, the extracellular domain of the CAR includes an antigen binding region and a linker fragment (also referred to as a hinge, spacer, or linker). The linker fragment may be considered to be part of a CAR for providing flexibility to the extracellular domain. In some cases, the difference in the linker fragments may result in a CAR on the cell surface that is not activated by the target antigen, or is activated to a very low degree, or the T cells may undergo significant depletion after activation and loss of function, possibly due to the difference in the degree of complementarity of the spatial structure formed by the antibody or antibody fragment of the extracellular domain to that of the target antigen. For example, whether the length of the linker fragment derived from an immunoglobulin needs to be optimized depends on the location where the extracellular domain targets the target epitope.
The composition and length of the linked fragments of the CAR polypeptide are both adjustable. The spatial conformation of the immunological synaptic binding between T cells and target cells determines the distance that the membrane distal epitope on the target molecule cannot functionally bridge to the CAR, nor does a CAR using a short linker fragment allow the synaptic distance to reach an approximation of signal transduction. Likewise, the membrane proximal CAR target epitope only observed signal output in the context of long linker CARs. The linker fragment may be regulated depending on the extracellular domain used. The connecting segments may be of any length. Illustratively, in one embodiment of the application, the CAR comprises a hinge domain, which is a CD 8. Alpha. Hinge, preferably, the CD 8. Alpha.

The U-UTD cells and TRAC-/-UTD cells constructed in example 2 were selected as negative and positive controls, respectively, and the cell concentration was adjusted to 1X 10≡6/ml. According to the number proportion of NK cells to T cells of 1:1 or 2:1 were inoculated into 24-well plates and incubated in an incubator for 0hr,24hr and 48hr, respectively. NK cells were labeled with APC-CD56 (Invitrogen) antibody in the NK cell+TRAC-/-UTD group, and with APC-HLA-ABC antibody (Invitrogen) in the other mixed culture groups, the ratio and number of the T cells and the NK cells were measured at different time points of co-incubation, respectively.
As shown in FIG. 5, the ratio of U-UTD cells gradually decreased with time and the ratio of TIGIT-UCAR-T cells gradually increased when the cells were co-cultured with NK cells. TIGIT-UCAR-T cells have higher survival rates and survival numbers than U-UTD cells at NK: T ratios of 2:1 and 1:1.

TIGIT and CLDN18A2 dual-target UCAR-T cells were prepared as in example 4 and tested for CAR-T cell positive rate and TIGIT expression (fig. 9). Some U-UTD, CLDN18A2-UCAR-T cells express TIGIT protein on their surface, UCAR-T1, UCAR-T2, UCAR-T3 cells do not detect TIGIT protein. Taking 1×10 6 U-UTD, CLDN18A2-UCAR-T, UCAR-T1, UCAR-T2, UCAR-T3 cells and 5X 10, respectively 6 PBMC cells were co-cultured and the proportion of U-UTD, CLDN18A2-UCAR-T, UCAR-T1, UCAR-T2, UCAR-T3 cells and the proportion of NK cells were examined at 0h, 24h and 48h of co-culture using PE-anti-HLA-ABC antibody (labeled U-UTD and UCAR-T cells) and APC-anti-CD 56 antibody (labeled NK cells in PBMC cells) (FIG. 10).
The results show that the proportion of the three forms of TIGIT and CLDN18A2 double-target UCAR-T cells and PBMC cells after being co-cultured for 48 hours is higher than that of U-UTD and CLDN18A 2-UCAR-T; after co-culture, NK cells in UCAR-T1, UCAR-T2 and UCAR-T3 groups are lower than those in U-UTD and CLDN18A2-UCAR-T groups. The results show that the TIGIT and CLDN18A2 double-target UCAR-T cells can effectively resist NK cell killing in PBMC cells, and the UCAR-T2 has the best effect of resisting NK cells.
EXAMPLE 7 therapeutic Effect of double target UCAR-T cells targeting TIGIT and tumor antigen on transplantation tumor
The target TIGIT and the tumor antigen targeted double-target UCAR-T can resist the foreign NK cells so as to keep higher survival rate. Further we examined the anti-tumor effect of the double-target UCAR-T cells in vivo.
Subcutaneous inoculation of HGC-27-A2 transplants (designated D0) on NPG in immunodeficient mice, each mouse was inoculated with 5X 10 6 HGC-27-A2 cells, tumor volume was measured on day 15 and grouped, transplanted tumor volume was about 90mm3, 5 groups (U-UTD, CLDN18A2-UCAR-T, UCAR-T1, UCAR-T2, UCAR-T3), 5 per group; tail vein injection is 1×10 respectively 6 U-UTD, CLDN18A2-UCAR-T, UCAR-T1, UCAR-T2, UCAR-T3 cells. After injection, body weight was measured 2 times per week (including the day of group dosing and euthanasia), tumor length and diameter were recorded by vernier caliper measurement, tumor volume was calculated, tumor growth curves were plotted from tumor volume, and differences in tumor growth curves between groups were compared (tumor volume: v=1/2×length×diameter) 2 ). (FIG. 11A).
The results show that UCAR-T2 and UCAR-T1 treated groups have significant differences in the therapeutic effects of the transplanted tumors compared to U-UTD.
14 days after UCAR-T cell treatment, mouse peripheral blood was taken and the density of human CD4+ and CD8+ T cells in the mouse peripheral blood was examined.
The results are shown in FIG. 11B, where the CLDN18A2-UCAR-T cell treated group had a higher density of human CD4+, CD8+ T cells than the TIGIT & CLDN18A2 double-target UCAR-T cell treated group. The result is probably that the partial UCAR-T cells themselves express TIGIT protein, so that the double-target UCAR-T cells kill themselves, thereby reducing the number of human CD4+ and CD8+ T cells to a certain extent, and reducing the anti-tumor effect
EXAMPLE 8 TIGIT gRNA screening
Since some T cells also express TIGIT, to avoid the killing of CAR-T cells by CAR-T cells themselves, the TIGIT gene of CAR-T cells is further knocked out on the basis of the TRAC/B2M double knockout. For the TIGIT gene, we designed 12 pairs of gRNA1-12 (SEQ ID NOS: 25-36) targeting the TIGIT gene. And according to the instructions for the reagents (GeneArt TM Precision gRNA Synthesis Kit, thermo Tisher) in vitro to synthesize sgRNA sequences targeting TIGIT.
The T cells are activated by using CD3-CD28 antibody coated magnetic beads, and the T cells on the 5 th day of activation are electrotransformed by using a Maxcyte electrotransformation instrument. The electrotransformation system was 0.5. Mu.MCas 9 +2. Mu.M TIGIT sgRNA. On day 4 post-electrotransformation, each gRNA knockout efficiency was tested using the APC-TIGIT antibody. Specific experimental procedures are described with reference to example 2.
The results are shown in FIG. 12: the knockdown efficiencies of gRNA6 and gRNA10 were highest, 76% and 72%, respectively. Whereas gRNAs 11, 5, 7, 8 also enabled TIGIT knockouts.
In order to avoid the damage of TIGIT & CLDN18A2 double-target UCAR-T to self cells, the TIGIT gene of UCAR-T cells needs to be knocked out again on the basis of TRAC/B2M knocking out. On day 0, T cells were activated with CD3-CD8 antibody coated magnetic beads and after 48 hours lentiviruses PRRL-CLDN18A2-CAR, PRRL-CAR1, PRRL-CAR2, PRRL-CAR3 were infected respectively. After 24 hours, the solution was centrifuged. Continuing to culture until the 6 th day, adopting a Maxcyte electrotransfer instrument to double-knock out TRAC & B2M or triple-knock out TRAC & B2M & TIGIT genes, wherein an electrotransfer system comprises 1 mu M Cas9 (Kai organism) +2 mu M TRAC sgRNA+2mu M B M sgRNA, and 2.5 mu M Cas9 (Kai organism) +2 mu M TRAC sgRNA+2mu M B M sgRNA+6mu M TIGIT sgRNA; wherein the nucleotide sequence of the TIGIT sgRNA is shown in SEQ ID NO:30, the TRAC-gRNA has the nucleic acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:23, the nucleic acid sequence of the B2M-gRNA is shown as SEQ ID NO: shown at 24. Thus, TRAC and B2M double-gene knockout CLDN18A2-UCAR-T cells, TRAC & B2M & TIGIT gene triple-knockout cells U-UTD-TIGIT KO, CLDN18A2-UCAR-T-TIGIT KO, UCAR-T1-TIGIT KO, UCAR-T2-TIGIT KO, UCAR-T3-TIGIT KO cells were prepared. Specific experimental procedures are described with reference to example 2.
The above CAR-T cells were stained with PE-labeled anti-CLDN 18A2scFv antibodies and each CAR-T cell positive rate was detected using flow cytometry. The CAR-T cell positive rate is shown in FIG. 13. Wherein the knockout efficiency of UCAR-T1-TIGIT KO, UCAR-T2-TIGIT KO and UCAR-T3-TIGIT KO cell TIGIT genes is respectively 84.3%, 85.2% and 84.7%.
Example 9 Effect of TIGIT gene knockout on CAR-T cell in vitro killing Activity
Knocking out the endogenous TIGIT gene may affect the killing of the target cells by the CAR-T cells. To assess the effect of knockout TIGIT genes on CAR-T in vitro killing activity we compared the in vitro killing activity of CLDN18A2-CAR-T, CLDN A2-CAR-T-TIGIT KO cells on target cells.
The T cells were activated by coating magnetic beads with CD3-CD28 antibody, and after 48 hours, PRRL-CLDN18A2-CAR lentivirus infection was performed on the activated T cells. Moi=10. Centrifuge after 24 hours after infection. Continuing to culture until the 6 th day, electrotransferring the CLDN18A2-CAR-T cells by using a Maxcyte electrotransfer instrument, wherein the electrotransfer system is 1.5 mu MCas9 +6mu M TIGIT sgRNA, and the nucleic acid sequence of the TIGIT sgRNA is shown as SEQ ID NO:30, CLDN18A2-CAR-T-TIGIT KO cells were obtained. After 72 hours of electric conversion, 1X 10 is taken 6 Cells, CAR-T cell positive rate and TIGIT positive cell fraction were detected using PE-anti-CLDN 18A2scFv antibody and APC-TIGIT antibody, respectively (fig. 14A). Specific experimental procedures are described with reference to example 2.
The results showed positive rates for CLDN18A2-CAR-T and CLDN18A2-CAR-T-TIGIT KO cells of 80.6% and 82.1%, respectively. TIGIT knockout efficiency of CLDN18A2-CAR-T-TIGIT KO cells was 83%.
75. Mu.L of 2X 10 cells were inoculated in 96-well plates 5 BXPC-3-A2, HGC-27-A2 cells (target cells); adding effector cells UTD, CLDN18A2-CAR-T, CLDN A2-CAR-T-TIGIT KO cells according to the effective target ratio of 3:1, 1:1 or 1:3 respectively, and setting an effector cell spontaneous LDH control hole, a target cell maximum LDH control hole, a volume correction control hole and a culture medium background control, wherein 4 compound holes are respectively arranged; detection of LDH Release after 18h using Cytotoxicity Detection Kit (LDH, roche)And killing of target cells by each group of cells was calculated (fig. 14B).
The results show that knockout of the endogenous TIGIT gene does not affect the killing of the target cells by the CAR-T cells.
Example 10 therapeutic Effect of double target UCAR-T-TIGIT KO cells targeting TIGIT and tumor antigen on transplantation tumor
To investigate whether endogenous TIGIT expression affects the therapeutic effect of dual-target UCAR-T in example 7 on tumors, we performed the knockout of TIGIT gene in UCAR-T cells with reference to example 9 to observe the therapeutic effect of dual-target UCAR-T on transplanted tumors in case of TIGIT knockout.
On day 0, NPG mice were inoculated subcutaneously with HGC-27-A2 transplants, each with 5X 10 6 HGC-27-A2 cells. Measuring tumor volume size and grouping on day 20, transplanting tumor volume about 200mm3, grouping 6 groups (U-UTD-TIGIT KO, CLDN18A2-UCAR-T, CLDN A2-UCAR-T-TIGIT KO, UCAR-T1-TIGIT KO, UCAR-T2-TIGIT KO, UCAR-T3-TIGIT KO), 5 per group; tail vein administration 2×10 6 U-UTD-TIGIT KO, CLDN18A2-UCAR-T, CLDN A2-UCAR-T-TIGIT KO, UCAR-T1-TIGIT KO, UCAR-T2-TIGIT KO, UCAR-T3-TIGIT KO cells. After injection, body weight was measured 2 times per week (including the day of group dosing and euthanasia), tumor length and diameter were recorded by vernier caliper measurement, tumor volume was calculated, tumor growth curves were plotted from tumor volume, and differences in tumor growth curves between groups were compared (tumor volume: v=1/2×length×diameter) 2 ). (FIG. 15).
The results show that compared with the control group, the UCAR-T3-TIGIT KO with the endogenous TIGIT knocked-out has a significantly improved treatment effect on the transplanted tumor.
Because the TIGIT gene is knocked out, the UCAR-T cells are prevented from killing the UCAR-T cells, and the anti-tumor effect is obviously improved. Furthermore, UCAR-T3-TIGIT KO had significantly better therapeutic effects on HGC-27-A2 transplants than the control group, as compared to the control group in example 7.
Example 11 treatment effect of double target U-CAR T-TIGIT KO cells targeting TIGIT and tumor antigen on transplantation tumor in the Presence of NK cells
In order to investigate the in vivo anti-tumor effect of TIGIT and tumor antigen double-target U-CAR T cells in the presence of NK cells, we compared the therapeutic effect of CLDN18A2-UCAR T-TIGIT KO+NK, UCAR-T1-TIGIT KO+NK, UCAR-T2-TIGIT KO+NK and UCAR-T3-TIGIT KO on HGC-27-A2 transplants.
Day 0 NPG mice were inoculated subcutaneously with HGC-27-A2, 5X 10 each 6 And (3) cells. On day 13, HGC-27-A2 transplantable tumor volumes were measured at about 100mm 3 And 6 groups, wherein groups 1,3,4,5,6 are given 5X 10 6 PBMC cells.

After injection, body weight was measured 2 times per week (including the day of group dosing and euthanasia), tumor length and diameter were recorded by vernier caliper measurement, tumor volume was calculated, tumor growth curves were plotted from tumor volume, and differences in tumor growth curves between groups were compared (tumor volume: v=1/2×length×diameter) 2 )。
The results showed that UCAR-T1-TIGIT KO, UCAR-T2-TIGIT KO and UCAR-T3-TIGIT KO had better therapeutic effect on HGC-27-A2 transplants than CLDN18A2-UCAR T-TIGIT KO in the presence of NK cells.
The experimental data show that the dual-target CAR-T cell anti-tumor effect of targeting TIGIT and tumor antigen is better than that of the CAR-T cell of targeting tumor antigen alone under the condition of NK cell existence.

TRAC-/-UTD was prepared as a positive control by TRAC single gene knockout on UTD cells (T cells not transfected with virus). TRAC and B2M double-deleted UTD cells (U-UTD cells) served as negative controls.
The cell concentration is adjusted to 1 x 10 x 6/ml. According to the number proportion of NK cells to T cells of 1:1 were inoculated into 24-well plates and incubated in an incubator for 0hr,24hr and 48hr, respectively. NK cells were labeled with APC-CD56 (Invitrogen) antibody in the NK cell+TRAC-/-UTD group, and with APC-HLA-ABC antibody (Invitrogen) in the other mixed culture groups, the ratio of T cells and NK cells was varied at different time points of co-incubation, respectively.
As a result, as shown in FIG. 17, the ratio of TIGIT-BBZ-UCAR T cells and TIGIT-28Z-UCAR T cells was gradually increased and the ratio of NK cells was gradually decreased as the co-culture time was prolonged, when the cells were co-cultured with NK cells. This suggests that TIGIT-targeted CAR-T cells are able to effectively resist NK cell killing.
