Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of biotechnology, in particular to a signal conversion receptor and application thereof.
Background
In Adoptive Cell Therapy (ACT) of tumors, stability of the immune system is critical. Too low a reaction may cause severe infection, and too strong a reaction may cause allergic reaction. The human immune system evolved a fine, complex bi-directional immune regulation mechanism that positively and negatively regulated the immune response. Activating and enhancing immune response when foreign antigenic material is removed; after removal of foreign antigenic material, the immune response may be attenuated to termination. In tumor ACT, positive regulatory molecules of effector T cells include CD3/TCR complex, CD28, CD134 (OX 40), CD137 (4-1 BB), etc., and negative regulatory molecules include PD-1 (PDCD 1, CD 279), CTLA-4 (CD 152), LAG3 (CD 223), TIM3 (HAVCR 2), etc. However, in the Tumor Microenvironment (TME), there are many factors that negatively regulate T cell immune responses, allowing tumor cells to escape from the monitoring and clearance of the immune system of the body and continue to proliferate, invade and metastasize.
TGF-beta has an inhibitory effect on the systemic immune system and inhibits immune surveillance of the host. TGF-beta plays an important role in the initiation and progression of tumors. TGF-beta has a tumor promoting effect, which is often produced in large amounts in many types of tumors and is known to have carcinogenesis, and which has a negative impact on tumor immunity and significantly inhibits tumor immunity monitoring of the host. TGF-beta significantly and directly inhibits the cytotoxic process (cytotoxic program) of Cytotoxic T Lymphocytes (CTLs) by inhibiting transcription of genes encoding a number of key proteins, including at least: perforin, granzyme a, granzyme B, fas ligand, and g interferon. Meanwhile, TGF-beta has a significant effect on differentiation and function of CD4+ T cells.
Aiming at the negative regulation inhibitory signal path of immune effector cells, in recent years, a plurality of reports have been made on connecting the extracellular region of the corresponding receptor with the transmembrane region and the intracellular region of a positive co-stimulatory signal molecule, so as to construct a novel fusion receptor, the fusion receptor has the function of a signal converter after being expressed in the immune effector cells, and can convert the immune inhibitory signal in the tumor microenvironment into an immune activation signal, namely, the signal conversion molecule extracellular polypeptide receives the immune inhibitory molecule signal on the surface of the tumor cells, the surface of the tumor stromal cells or the tumor microenvironment and transmits the immune inhibitory molecule signal into cells, and the second signal of the immune cells is activated through the intracellular segment of the co-stimulatory signal molecule, so that the proliferation and cytokine secretion function of the immune effector cells are enhanced, and the survival time of the activated immune effector cells is prolonged. WO2021244486A1 discloses a signaling receptor based on the extracellular region of TGF-beta receptor II, which comprises the extracellular region of TGF-betaRII and transmembrane and intracellular activation domains from other molecules. The TCR-T cells expressing the signal conversion receptor have remarkable promotion on proliferation and in-vitro and in-vivo killing effects on tumor target cells. CN105452287a discloses an immunosuppressive TGF-beta signal transducer which is a chimera comprising an extracellular domain of a TGF-beta receptor and an intracellular domain from another molecule, such that binding of TGF-beta to the extracellular domain results in the intracellular domain stimulating T cell activity.
In order to stimulate proliferation of immune effector cells and enhance their tumor immunity effects, there is still a need for more improved means, including signal transducer molecules, to modify and activate immune effector cells.

Detailed Description
It is understood that within the scope of the present invention, the above-described technical features of the present invention and technical features specifically described below (e.g., in the examples) may be combined with each other to constitute a preferred technical solution.
The invention uses the anti-TGF-beta antibody as the extracellular region of the signal conversion receptor, has higher affinity with TGF-beta factor compared with the signal conversion receptor based on the extracellular region of the TGF-beta receptor disclosed in WO2021244486A1, can activate the intracellular domain more effectively compared with the signal conversion receptor based on the extracellular region of the TGF-beta receptor, and further improves the activation and proliferation level of immune effector cells expressing the signal conversion receptor.
In the present invention, immune cells have the meaning well known in the art and refer to cells involved in or associated with an immune response, including lymphocytes, dendritic cells, monocytes/macrophages, granulocytes, mast cells, and the like. Lymphocytes include T lymphocytes, tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, B lymphocytes, NK lymphocytes, and NKT cells. Immune cells suitable for use in the present invention include, inter alia, those typically used in adoptive cell therapy of tumors.
The immune cells of the invention express the signal transduction receptor of the invention and/or contain the coding sequence of the signal transduction receptor. The signal transduction receptors of the present invention are designed to bind inhibitory molecules but transmit a positive signal rather than an inhibitory signal. That is, these cells convert the "brake" signal to an "acceleration" signal to improve the anti-tumor effect of each immune cell.
Definition of the definition
The present invention uses the following terminology. For terms not specifically defined herein, they have meanings well known in the art.
The term "expression cassette" refers to the complete elements required for expression of a gene, including promoters, gene coding sequences, and PolyA tailing signal sequences.
The term "coding sequence" is defined herein as that portion of a nucleic acid sequence that directly determines the amino acid sequence of its protein product (e.g., signal transduction receptor, CAR). The boundaries of the coding sequence are typically determined by a ribosome binding site (for prokaryotic cells) immediately upstream of the open reading frame at the 5 'end of the mRNA and a transcription termination sequence immediately downstream of the open reading frame at the 3' end of the mRNA. Coding sequences may include, but are not limited to, DNA, cDNA, and recombinant nucleic acid sequences.
The term "costimulatory signaling molecule" refers to a molecule that is present on the surface of an antigen-presenting cell and that is capable of binding to a costimulatory signaling molecule receptor on a Th cell to produce a costimulatory signal. It can activate the second signal of immune cell, strengthen the proliferation capacity of immune cell and the secretion function of cell factor, and prolong the survival time of activated immune cell. Proliferation of lymphocytes requires not only antigen binding but also signal of the co-stimulatory molecule. The co-stimulatory signal is transmitted to the T cell primarily through the co-stimulatory molecule CD80, CD86 expressed on the surface of the antigen presenting cell binding to the CD28 molecule on the surface of the T cell. B cells receive costimulatory signals through common pathogen components such as LPS, or through complement components, or through activated antigen-specific CD40L on Th cell surfaces.
The term "linker" or hinge is a polypeptide fragment that connects between different proteins or polypeptides in order to maintain the connected proteins or polypeptides in their respective spatial conformations in order to maintain the function or activity of the protein or polypeptide. Exemplary linkers include linkers comprising G and/or S, and for example Furin 2A peptides.
The term "pharmaceutically acceptable excipients" refers to carriers and/or excipients that are pharmacologically and/or physiologically compatible with the subject and active ingredient, which are well known in the art (see, e.g., remington's pharmaceutical sciences, improved by Gennaro AR,19th ed.Pennsylvania:Mack Publishing Company,1995), and include, but are not limited to: pH adjusters, surfactants, adjuvants, ionic strength enhancers. For example, pH modifiers include, but are not limited to, phosphate buffers; surfactants include, but are not limited to, cationic, anionic or nonionic surfactants, such as Tween-80; ionic strength enhancers include, but are not limited to, sodium chloride.
The term "effective amount" refers to the amount that achieves treatment, prevention, alleviation and/or relief of a disease or condition of the present invention in a subject.
The term "disease and/or disorder" refers to a physical state of the subject that is associated with the disease and/or disorder of the present invention.

The term "extracellular region" refers to the region of a membrane protein that is located outside of a cell.
The term "domain" refers to a region of a protein having a specific structure and independent function, the number of amino acid residues of a common domain being between 100 and 400, the smallest domain being only 40 to 50 amino acid residues, and the large domain being more than 400 amino acid residues.
Signal transduction receptor
The signal transduction receptor of the present invention is a fusion protein comprising a TGF-beta antibody or antigen binding fragment thereof fused to an intracellular domain (also referred to as an "intracellular region") of an immunostimulatory molecule (also referred to as a "costimulatory signaling molecule"). More specifically, the signal transduction receptor of the present invention includes a TGF-beta antibody or antigen binding fragment thereof as an extracellular region, a transmembrane region, and an intracellular domain of a costimulatory signal molecule.
In the present invention, "antibody" includes but is not limited to: monoclonal antibodies (including full length antibodies, which have an immunoglobulin Fc region), antibody compositions with multi-epitope specificity, multi-specific antibodies (e.g., bispecific antibodies), diabodies, single domain antibodies (sdabs), heavy chain antibodies (hcabs), nanobodies (nanobodies), minibodies (minibodies), and antibody fragments, particularly antigen-binding fragments, e.g., single chain antibodies (scFv), fab ', and F (ab') 2 。
"variable region" or "variable domain" of an antibody refers to the amino-terminal domain of the heavy or light chain of the antibody. The variable domains of the heavy and light chains may be referred to as "VH" and "VL", respectively. These domains are typically the most variable parts of an antibody (relative to other antibodies of the same type) and contain antigen binding sites.
The term "variable" refers to the case where certain segments in the variable domain differ widely in antibody sequence. The variable domains mediate antigen binding and define the specificity of a particular antibody for its particular antigen. However, variability is not evenly distributed across all amino acids spanned by the variable domains. Instead, it focuses on three segments called hypervariable regions (HVRs), both in the light and heavy chain variable domains, i.e., HCDR1, HCDR2, HCDR3 for the heavy chain variable region (which may be abbreviated as CDR1, CDR2, CDR3 in heavy chain antibodies) and LCDR1, LCDR2, and LCDR3 for the light chain variable region, respectively. The more highly conserved portions of the variable domains are called Framework Regions (FR). The variable domains of the natural heavy and light chains each comprise four FR regions (FR 1, FR2, FR3 and FR 4) that mostly take on a beta-folded conformation, linked by three HVRs that form a loop linkage and in some cases form part of a beta-folded structure. The HVRs in each chain are held together in close proximity by the FR regions and, together with the HVRs of the other chain, contribute to the formation of the antigen binding site of the antibody. Typically, the light chain variable region is of the structure FR1-LCDR1-FR2-LCDR2-FR3-LCDR3-FR4 and the heavy chain variable region is of the structure FR1-HCDR1-FR2-HCDR2-FR3-HCDR3-FR4. The constant domains are not directly involved in binding of antibodies to antigens, but exhibit a variety of effector functions, such as participation of antibodies in antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity.
"Fc region" (crystallizable fragment region) or "Fc domain" or "Fc" refers to the C-terminal region of the antibody heavy chain that mediates binding of immunoglobulins to host tissues or factors, including binding to Fc receptors located on various cells of the immune system (e.g., effector cells) or binding to the first component (C1 q) of the classical complement system. In IgG, igA and IgD antibody isotypes, the Fc region consists of two identical protein fragments from the CH2 domain and the CH3 domain of the two heavy chains of the antibody; the Fc region of IgM and IgE contains three heavy chain constant domains (CH domains 2-4) in each polypeptide chain. Although the boundaries of the Fc region of an immunoglobulin heavy chain may vary, a human IgG heavy chain Fc region is generally defined as the stretch of sequence from the amino acid residue at heavy chain position C226 or P230 to the carboxy-terminus, wherein the numbering is according to the EU index as in Kabat.
An "antibody fragment" comprises a portion of an intact antibody, preferably the antigen-binding and/or variable regions of an intact antibody. The antibody fragment is preferably an antigen binding fragment of an antibody. Examples of antibody fragments include Fab, fab ', F (ab') 2 And Fv fragments; a diabody; a linear antibody; a single chain antibody molecule; an scFv-Fc fragment; multispecific antibodies formed from antibody fragments; and any fragment that should be capable of increasing half-life by chemical modification or by incorporation into liposomes. Digestion of an antibody with papain produces two identical antigen-binding fragments, called "Fab" fragments, and one residual "Fc" fragment, the name of which reflects its ability to crystallize readily. The Fab fragment consists of the complete light chain and heavy chain variable domain (VH) and one heavy chain first constant domain (CH 1). Each Fab fragment is monovalent in terms of antigen binding, i.e. it has a single antigen binding site. Pepsin treatment of antibodies produced a larger F (ab') 2 fragment, roughly equivalent to two Fab fragments linked by disulfide bonds, with different antigen binding activities and still capable of cross-linking the antigen. Fab' fragments differ from Fab fragments by the addition of some additional residues at the carboxy terminus of the CH1 domain, including one or more cysteines from the antibody hinge region. F (ab') 2 Antibody fragments were initially generated as pairs of Fab 'fragments with hinge cysteines between the Fab' fragments. Other chemical couplings of antibody fragments are also known. The Fc fragment comprises the carboxy-terminal portions of two heavy chains held together by disulfide bonds. The effector function of antibodies is determined by sequences in the Fc region, which is also the region recognized by Fc receptors (fcrs) found on certain cell types.
"Fv" is the smallest antibody fragment that contains the complete antigen recognition and binding site. The fragment consists of a dimer of one heavy chain variable domain and one light chain variable domain in tight, non-covalent association. Six hypervariable loops (3 loops each for heavy and light chains) are highlighted from the fold of these two domains, contributing to the antigen-binding amino acid residues and conferring antigen-binding specificity to the antibody. However, even a single variable domain (or half Fv comprising only three HVRs specific for an antigen) has the ability to recognize and bind antigen, although with less avidity than the complete binding site. "Single chain Fv" may also be abbreviated "sFv" or "scFv" and is an antibody fragment comprising the VH and VL domains of an antibody linked into one polypeptide chain. Preferably, the sFv polypeptide further comprises a polypeptide linker between the VH and VL domains such that the sFv forms the desired antigen-binding structure.
Antibodies herein also include "chimeric" antibodies in which a portion of the heavy and/or light chain is identical or homologous to a corresponding sequence in an antibody derived from a particular species or belonging to a particular antibody class or subclass, while the remainder of the chain is identical or homologous to a corresponding sequence in an antibody derived from another species or belonging to another antibody class or subclass, as well as fragments of such antibodies, so long as they exhibit the desired biological activity.
"humanized" form of a non-human (e.g., murine) antibody refers to a chimeric antibody that minimally comprises sequences derived from a non-human immunoglobulin. Thus, a "humanized antibody" generally refers to a non-human antibody in which the variable domain framework regions are exchanged for sequences found in a human antibody. Typically in humanized antibodies, the entire antibody (except for the CDRs) is encoded by a polynucleotide of human origin or is identical to such an antibody (except for the CDRs). CDRs (some or all of which are encoded by nucleic acids derived from non-human organisms) are grafted into the beta-folding framework of the human antibody variable region to produce an antibody, the specificity of which is determined by the grafted CDRs. Methods for producing such antibodies are well known in the art, for example, using mice with genetically engineered immune systems.
"human antibody" refers to an antibody having an amino acid sequence corresponding to the amino acid sequence of an antibody produced by a human and/or produced using any of the techniques disclosed herein for producing a human antibody. This definition of human antibodies specifically excludes humanized antibodies that comprise non-human antigen binding residues. Human antibodies can be generated using a variety of techniques known in the art, including phage display libraries. The antibody of any one of the embodiments of the invention is a chimeric antibody or a fully human antibody; preferably fully human antibodies.

In the present invention, the extracellular domain of an anti-TGF-beta antibody is linked to the intracellular domain of a costimulatory signal molecule through a transmembrane region (transmembrane domain). The transmembrane region may be of any origin. Suitable transmembrane regions for use in the present invention include, but are not limited to, any one or more of the transmembrane regions of CD28, CD134 (OX 40), CD137 (4-1 BB), LCK, ICOS, DAP, siglec-9, siglec-10, siglec-15, TLR1, TLR2, TLR3, TLR4, TLR5, TLR6, TLR7, TLR8, TLR9, IL-2R, IL-4R, IL-7R, IL-10R, IL-12R, IL-15R, IL-21R, CD27, and CD40, or mutants thereof that retain transmembrane function.

The transmembrane region may also be a mutant of the IL-7Ralpha transmembrane region described in WO2021244486, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
It is understood that "functional fragment" as used herein refers to a fragment that retains the desired biological function. For example, a functional fragment of an intracellular domain as described herein refers to a fragment that retains the biological function of the costimulatory signaling molecule to deliver a costimulatory signal, activating an immune cell. Functional fragments of each extracellular domain suitable for use in the present invention can be readily determined by one of skill in the art in combination with prior art means in the art.
The signal transduction receptor of the present invention may also have a membrane surface tag extracellular. Thus, in some embodiments, the extracellular domains described herein comprise the anti-TGF-beta antibody and a membrane surface tag. Herein, "membrane surface tag" includes BCMA extracellular domain or fragment thereof. Preferably, the BCMA ectodomain comprises the sequence shown in SEQ ID No. 22; the nucleic acid sequence comprises the sequence shown in SEQ ID NO. 21. The membrane surface tag may function as an immune braking element, recognition element, linker, element that induces ADCC, ADCP and/or CDC effects.
The membrane surface tag may also have a linker fragment at the N-terminus or C-terminus of the BCMA extracellular domain for linking to other polypeptides or polypeptide portions. The connecting segments are typically hinge regions or linkers. Exemplary linkers include the sequences shown as SEQ ID NOS.24 or 26, and the nucleic acid sequences shown as SEQ ID NOS.23 or 25, respectively. The hinge region includes one or more selected from the group consisting of: an extracellular hinge region of CD8, an IgG1 Fc CH2CH3 hinge region, an IgD hinge region, a CD28 extracellular hinge region, an IgG4 Fc CH2CH3 hinge region, and an extracellular hinge region of CD 4.

The "mutant" as referred to herein includes mutants of each antibody, transmembrane region and intracellular domain, as long as the mutants retain the respective biological functions of the antibody, transmembrane region and intracellular domain. For example, mutants of antibodies suitable for use in the present invention include mutants having at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%, at least 95%, at least 97% or at least 99% sequence identity to the antibody used as a control; mutants suitable for use in the transmembrane region of the invention include mutants having at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%, at least 95%, at least 97% or at least 99% sequence identity to the transmembrane region as a comparison; mutants of the intracellular domains suitable for use in the present invention include mutants having at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%, at least 95%, at least 97% or at least 99% sequence identity to the intracellular domain to be compared. Alternatively, the mutants of the present invention have one or more (e.g., 20 or less, 15 or less, 10 or less, 8 or less, 5 or less, or 3 or less, e.g., 1-20, 1-10, etc.) amino acid residues inserted, substituted or deleted as compared to the sequences used as a comparison. For example, conservative substitutions with amino acids that are similar or analogous in nature typically do not alter the function of the protein or polypeptide. "similar or analogous amino acids" include, for example, families of amino acid residues with similar side chains, including amino acids with basic side chains (e.g., lysine, arginine, histidine), acidic side chains (e.g., aspartic acid, glutamic acid), uncharged polar side chains (e.g., glycine, asparagine, glutamine, serine, threonine, tyrosine, cysteine), nonpolar side chains (e.g., alanine, valine, leucine, isoleucine proline, phenylalanine, methionine, tryptophan), beta-branched side chains (e.g., threonine, valine, isoleucine) and aromatic side chains (e.g., tyrosine, phenylalanine, tryptophan, histidine).
The invention also includes mutants of the signal transduction receptor described above, such as mutants having at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%, at least 95%, at least 97% or at least 99% sequence identity to the signal transduction receptor.

Such mutants retain the biological function of the signal transduction receptor of the present invention, including but not limited to converting a signal recognizing TGF-beta to a stimulatory signal enhancing immune cell proliferation. Mutations can occur in any, any two, or all three of the extracellular domains, transmembrane regions, and intracellular domains described herein.
The polypeptides described herein may be modified polypeptides. Modified (typically without altering the primary structure) forms include: chemically derivatized forms of polypeptides such as acetylation or carboxylation, in vivo or in vitro. Modifications also include glycosylation, such as those resulting from glycosylation modifications during synthesis and processing of the polypeptide or during further processing steps. Such modification may be accomplished by exposing the polypeptide to an enzyme that performs glycosylation (e.g., mammalian glycosylase or deglycosylase). Modified forms also include sequences having phosphorylated amino acid residues (e.g., phosphotyrosine, phosphoserine, phosphothreonine). Also included are polypeptides modified to improve their proteolytic resistance or to optimize solubility.

The vector may be a cloning vector or an expression vector. The expression vector may be a transposon vector. In certain embodiments, the expression vector is one or more selected from the group consisting of: piggybac, sleep reliability, frog priority, tn5 and Ty. In addition to the polynucleotide molecules of the invention, the expression vectors will typically contain other elements typically contained in vectors, such as multiple cloning sites, resistance genes, replication initiation sites, and the like. In certain embodiments, the recombinant expression vector employs pUC18, pUC19, pMD18-T, pMD19-T, pGM-T, pUC57, pMAX or pDC315 series vectors as the backbone.

In some embodiments, the same vector encodes both the signaling receptor and CAR of the invention. The vector may be a bicistronic. The coding sequence of the CAR may be disposed 5 'or 3' to the signal transduction receptor coding sequence. Expression of the CAR and signaling receptor may be under the direction of the same or different regulatory sequences.
Where the polynucleotide sequence is known, each polynucleotide molecule may be prepared by methods conventional in the art and the corresponding vector constructed. Recombinant vectors can be constructed using methods well known to those skilled in the art, see, for example, sambrook et al, ausubel (1989), or other standard textbook techniques. Alternatively, the nucleic acid molecules and vectors can be reconstituted into liposomes for delivery to target cells. Vectors containing the nucleic acid molecules of the invention may be transferred into host cells by well known methods, which vary depending on the type of cellular host. For example, calcium chloride transfection is commonly used for prokaryotic cells, whereas calcium phosphate treatment or electrotransfection may be used for other cellular hosts, see Sambrook.
Host cells
Herein, when expressing a heterologous nucleic acid sequence, "host cell" refers to a eukaryotic cell that is capable of replicating the vector and/or expressing the heterologous gene encoded by the vector. Host cells can be used as acceptors for vectors. The host cell may be "transfected" or "transformed," which refers to the process by which exogenous nucleic acid is transfected or transduced into the host cell. Transformed cells include primary subject cells and their progeny.

Example 4: electrotransport TBA signaling receptor TIL phenotype assay
1. Cell viability and positivity of electrotransport TBA signaling receptor TIL
Cell viability was measured for each group by trypan blue staining and cell counter counting. The results show that the cell viability of TIL-TBA-1-TIL-TBA-17 and TIL-CTRL prepared in example 3 is above 93%.
The fluorescence labeling method is used for labeling the electrotransport TBA signal conversion receptor TIL, and the flow cytometry is used for detecting the cell ratio positive to the TBA signal conversion receptor gene expression, and the method is as follows:
1) Collection of TIL-TBA-1-TIL-TBA-17 and TIL-CTRL groups of cells, 1X 10 of cells were collected per group 6 800g, centrifuging for 3min;
2) Discarding the supernatant, adding physiological saline into each cell sample to re-suspend the cells, and centrifuging for 3min, wherein 800 g;

Beta.1 factor (available from acrobiosystems) was added to each tube; cargo number: TG 1-H8217), 30 min incubation at room temperature; 800g, centrifuging for 3min, and washing twice;
4) The supernatant was discarded, 100. Mu.L of physiological saline was added to each tube of pellet, and the cells were resuspended, and 2. Mu.L of PE-Streptavidin (PE strepitavidins, available from BDbiosciences; cargo number: 554061 30 min, 800g, centrifuging for 3min, washing twice, and discarding the supernatant;
5) Resuspension with 400 μl of physiological saline, and detection by up-flow cytometry.
Meanwhile, regarding to TIL (TIL-TBA-12-TIL-TBA-17) expressing a TBA signaling receptor containing an extracellular domain of BCMA, the extracellular domain of BCMA is used as a label, and the ratio of BCMA positive cells is detected by a flow cytometer by a direct labeling method, as follows:
1) Collection of TIL-TBA-12-TIL-TBA-17 Each group of cells, 1X 10 of the number of cells per group was collected 6 800g, centrifuging for 3min;
2) Discarding the supernatant, adding physiological saline to resuspend cells, and centrifuging for 3min at 800 g;
3) The supernatant was discarded and 100 μl of saline was added to resuspend cells, 2 μl of BCMA flow antibody per tube (ex bioleged cat: 357504 Incubation for 30 minutes at room temperature;
4) Adding proper amount of physiological saline, 800g, centrifuging for 3min, washing twice, and discarding supernatant;
5) Resuspension with 400 μl of physiological saline, and detection by up-flow cytometry.
The results show that the cell positive rates of each group are shown in table 3 below:
TABLE 3 TBA Signal transduction receptor expression positive cell occupancy
/>
The results are shown in Table 3, with a ratio of BCMA positive cells approaching 0 and a ratio of TBA ectodomain positive cells of about 3% in the control cells TIL, indicating that there are substantially no BCMA-expressing positive cells and about 3% of cells expressing a receptor capable of binding TGF-beta 1 (i.e., wild-type TGF-beta receptor) in the prepared native TIL. In TIL-TBA-12-TIL-TBA-17, the positive proportion obtained by the indirect labeling method is higher than that obtained by the direct labeling method, the higher part is probably the wild TGF-beta receptor expressed by TIL itself (which can be considered as false positive in the proportion of the positive cells expressed by the TBA signal conversion receptor), and the proportion of the positive cells obtained by the direct labeling method with the BCMA extracellular domain as a label ranges from about 20% to 50%, and the ratio of the positive TIL expressed by the TBA signal conversion receptor is reflected relatively more accurately.
Since each group of TIL-TBA-1-TIL-TBA-11 cells did not contain BCMA extracellular domain, the ratio of positive cells based on the direct labeling method could not be obtained, and the results of the indirect labeling method were used as the ratio of cells positive for the expression of the TBA signaling receptor for all groups of cells unless otherwise specified in the examples below.

(1) Lymphocyte phenotype of electrotransport TBA signaling receptor TIL
The associated lymphocyte phenotype of each group of cells is shown in Table 4
TABLE 4 TIL-TBA-1-TIL-TBA-17 cell phenotype
(2) Secretion of the cytokine IFN-gamma for the electrotransport TBA signalling receptor TIL
a. Secretion levels of IFN-gamma without ligand stimulation
The cell supernatants of TIL-TBA-1-TIL-TBA-17 and TIL-CTRL prepared in example 3 were directly taken and assayed for IFN-gamma concentration in the supernatants of each group of cells by the method described in the specification using the CBA assay kit (Human IFN-gamma Flex Set, BDbiosciences, cat# 558269);
b. secretion levels of IFN-gamma following ligand stimulation
Each well of a 12-well plate was charged with the mixture prepared in example 3 and containing 5X 10 5 1mL of a cell suspension of individual/mL of TIL-TBA-1-TIL-TBA-17 and TIL-CTRL; preparing TGF-beta 1 factor into 5 μg/mL mother liquor with PBS, adding into the above cell suspension to final concentration of 100ng/mL, 37deg.C, 5% CO 2 The culture was incubated overnight in an incubator, centrifuged, and the supernatant of each sample was collected and assayed for IFN-. Gamma.concentration using a CBA assay kit (Human IFN-. Gamma.Flex Set, BDbiosciences, cat# 558269) according to the protocol described in the specification.
The results are shown in Table 5 below:
TABLE 5 secretion level of TIL-TBA-1-TIL-TBA-17 IFN-gamma
The IFN-gamma secretion level of TIL-TBA-1-TIL-TBA-17 without TGF-beta 1 factor stimulation was not significantly different from that of TIL-CTRL in control cells; after stimulation, the IFN-gamma secretion level of TIL-TBA-1-TIL-TBA-17 is obviously improved compared with that of TIL-CTRL, and the IFN-gamma secretion level of TIL-CTRL is reduced after TGF-beta 1 stimulation compared with that of the TIL-CTRL without stimulation, which is probably caused by the inhibition effect of the added TGF-beta 1 factor on cells after the combination with part of wild TGF-beta receptors on the cell surface in the TIL-CTRL.
The results show that the IFN-gamma secretion level of the TIL which is electrically transformed with the TBA signal conversion receptor is obviously increased after the TIL is stimulated by the TGF-beta 1 factor, which indicates that the TGF-beta 1 factor can stimulate the increase of the activation level of the TIL which expresses the TBA signal conversion receptor.

(1) Zeroing: adding 50 mu L of DMEM culture solution into each hole, placing into an instrument, selecting the step 1, and zeroing;
(2) Target cell plating: the primary cells of melanoma obtained by culture were cultured at 10 per well 4 Spreading individual cells/50 mu L in a plate containing a detection electrode, standing for several minutes, putting the cells into an instrument after the cells are stable, and starting the step 2 to culture the cells;
(3) Adding effector cells: after the target cells are cultured for 18-24 h, observing cell indexes, when the cell indexes are close to 1, respectively adding effector cells TIL-TBA-1, TIL-TBA-2 … … TIL-TBA-17 and TIL-CTRL, wherein the effective target ratio is 2:1 in each hole, starting step 3, and after the co-culture is performed for more than 48h, observing a cell proliferation curve and a killing level, and calculating the target cell killing rate. The target cell killing rate was calculated as follows:
Where A is the cell index of the group to which no effector cells have been added and only target cells (i.e., tumor cells) are present, and B is the cell index of each group to which effector cells have been added.
The results are shown in FIG. 1 and Table 6. FIG. 1 is an exemplary RTCA kill curve for TIL-TBA-13, TIL-TBA-16, and TIL-CTRL against a target cell; table 6 shows the target cell killing rates of TIL-TBA-1-TIL-TBA-17 and TIL-CTRL in RTCA killing assays.

TGF-beta factor stimulates T cells expressing TBA signaling receptor
Each well of the 6-well plate was charged with the above-prepared solution containing 1X 10 6 3mL of each of the cell suspensions of T-TBA-12, T-TBA-13, T-TBA-16 and Mock-T; preparing TGF-beta 1 factor into 5 μg/mL mother liquor with PBS, adding into the above cell suspension to final concentration of 100ng/mL, 37deg.C, 5% CO 2 And incubating in an incubator for 48 hours, detecting the positive rate by using a flow cytometer, and simultaneously taking the positive rate detected by using the flow cytometer of each cell which is not stimulated to be cultivated by adding the TGF-beta 1 factor under the same condition, and comparing the positive rate with the cells stimulated by the TGF-beta 1 factor. The flow detection method refers to the direct labeling method described in example 4. The results are shown in Table 7:
table 7TGF- β1 factor stimulation to increase TBA expression positive T cell fraction
Compared with the culture condition without TGF-beta 1 factor stimulation, the flow detection result shows that the ratio of the TBA signal conversion receptor expression positive cells of the T-TBA-12, the T-TBA-13 and the T-TBA-16 under the culture condition with the TGF-beta 1 factor stimulation is obviously improved. This indicates that in the presence of the ligand, cells expressing the TBA signaling receptor can be activated and proliferation levels are increased.
Example 7: killing of tumor graft (PDX) tumor tissue by TIL cells expressing TBA Signal transduction receptor
Immunodeficient B-NDG mice (purchased from Baioerskin) were used as PDX model to construct experimental animals.
Experimental design and grouping: as shown in Table 8 below
Table 8 mice dosing regimen and groupings
TILs used in groups 2 to 4 were TIL-CTRL, TIL-TBA-13 and TIL-TBA-16 among the TILs prepared in example 3. Cells were resuspended in PBS by centrifugation prior to tail vein injection to a cell density of 1X 10 8 /mL PBS cell suspension.
Animal feeding
After purchasing the required amount of B-NDG mice, the mice are fed into SPF-class experimental animal houses for 7-10 days.
Environment: the mice will be housed in a clear resin plastic cage in an animal house. The mouse cage padding is the sawdust and corncob padding which are subjected to high-pressure sterilization and is replaced periodically. The animal room is equipped with a high efficiency air filter and the temperature will be maintained between 20-26 c (68-79F) with a relative humidity of 40-70%. Temperature and humidity were continuously observed and recorded. The lighting conditions were 12 hours of fluorescent light illumination and 12 hours of no illumination per day.
Food and drinking water: the experimental mice can obtain special mouse grains (sterilized by irradiation, shanghai Laike laboratory animal liability Co., ltd., china) in an unlimited amount, and can be used for approaching sterilized clean drinking water at any time without obstacle.
Construction of PDX model
1) Patient tumor tissue sample treatment: taking a portion of melanoma tissue from example 2Separating, removing necrotic part tissue, adipose tissue, connective tissue, etc. under aseptic condition, after washing, the tissue is divided into a plurality of 5X 5mm by using a surgical knife 3 The tissue block is placed in a tumor-containing sample transportation preservation solution UW, and B-NDG mice are prepared to be inoculated with the tumor block;
2) Tumor tissue sample inoculation: several B-NDG mice were taken, the mice were fixed with a mouse subcutaneous tumor inoculation fixator after the shoulder blade portion was prepared, the iodophor was sterilized, and the tumor mass in 1) was inoculated to the right inguinal portion with a PDX model tumor mass inoculation trocar after local anesthesia of lidocaine. Inoculation when the astronomical is P0, tumor is measured 2 times per week, and the calculation formula of tumor volume is V=0.5×a×b 2 Wherein a and b are the long and short diameters of the tumor, respectively;
3) PDX tissue passaging: observing the growth condition of tumor tissue of each inoculated mouse until the tumor tissue volume is over 300mm 3 After the mice were anesthetized, the tumor mass was removed and cut into 5X 5mm pieces with a scalpel under aseptic conditions 3 Repeating the step 2) after tissue mass, inoculating to the inguinal part of the right side of a new mouse, and waiting for the next generation growth of PDX tumor;
4) Repeating step 3), continuing to subculture for 2-3 generations, taking part of the in-vivo PDX tissue of the mice for histologic pathological analysis, determining that the PDX tissue is still human tissue (but not murine tissue), continuing to inoculate the mice with the PDX tissue (namely, inoculating 48 mice with a PDX tissue block) according to 1.5 times of the number of the mice used in the experimental design of the table 6, observing the tumor formation condition of the mice, measuring the tumor number 2 times per week, and waiting for the tumor formation.
Grouping and administration of animals
Tumor volume of equal PDX inoculated mice reaches 50mm 3 When selecting 32 animals with proper tumor volumes from 48 animals, randomly grouping the animals according to tumor volumes, wherein n=8, and ensuring that all groups have comparability on a base line. Grouping when the diary was D0, dosing was performed according to the protocol of table 6. Animal body weight and tumor volume were measured 3 times a week during the experiment, and animals were observed daily for clinical symptoms. Mm for tumor volume 3 The tumor measurement formula is the same as that described above.
Results
The experimental results are shown in FIG. 2. One-way analysis of variance (one-way ANOVA analysis) was performed on the tumor volume differences between the different groups, followed by post hoc examination (Bonferroni post hoc test) using the Bonferroni method to see if there were significant differences between the different groups. * : p <0.05; * P <0.01. Figure 2 shows that tumor volume increase was very significantly inhibited in the TIL-CTRL dosed mice compared to PBS-injected control tumor-bearing mice by day 40 post-dosing. The tumor volumes of tumor-bearing mice in TIL-TBA-13 and TIL-TBA-16 administration groups were further significantly or very significantly reduced compared to TIL-CTRL administration groups. The result shows that the unmodified TIL-CTRL has obvious inhibition effect on the homologous paired PDX tumor tissues, and the inhibition effect of the TIL on the homologous PDX tumor tissues is improved obviously on the basis after the transgenic modification of the TBA-13 or TBA-16 signal conversion receptor, so that the TBA signal conversion receptor can obviously activate immune effector cells and improve the tumor killing capacity of the immune effector cells. Meanwhile, compared with the TIL-TBA-13 administration group, the tumor volume of the mice in the TIL-TBA-16 administration group on the 40 th day is also obviously smaller, which shows that the TIL-TBA-16 has stronger killing effect on homologous tumor tissues compared with the TIL-TBA-13.
