Description

3D printing vaccine containing cell membrane vesicles, preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of biological medicines, in particular to a 3D printing vaccine containing cell membrane vesicles, a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Malignant tumors have a broad impact on public health and global economy. Surgery is the primary treatment option for solid tumors. In clinic, most cancer patients develop a recurrence of metastatic disease after initial tumor resection due to hidden microcosmic and circulating tumor cells. Chemotherapy and radiotherapy are commonly used in adjuvant therapy after tumor surgery, and although chemotherapy and radiotherapy have made rapid progress in effectively controlling distant tumor recurrence after surgery, the toxic side effects of treatment remain a major challenge in clinic. Dendritic Cell (DC) vaccines are a safe, post-operative, anti-tumor therapeutic approach with minimal side effects. Even in patients with advanced disease and weaker immune responses, DC vaccines can elicit adaptive anti-tumor immune responses in many patients. DC vaccines exhibit good clinical efficacy, particularly in combination with immune checkpoint therapy. In the flow, DCs of a tumor patient are extracted from the body, amplified and cultured in vitro, and then the anti-tumor in the body of the patient is infused back; mechanically, mature DCs migrate to lymphoid organs, bind to T lymphocytes, and enhance the antitumor effect of T cells. However, after intravenous or lymph node injection of DCs, the duration of action of DCs in the lymph nodes is short, severely affecting the therapeutic effect. To solve this problem, it has recently been proposed to load DCs on hydrogels which sustain slow release of DCs migration to lymph nodes and extend the duration of action of DCs at lymph nodes. Therefore, the continued migration of DCs stored in vivo to lymph nodes after surgery is one of the ways to enhance the antitumor effect of DC vaccines.
The hydrogel is a soft material with a three-dimensional network structure, and has good flexibility and biocompatibility. And the water-holding capacity and network structure of the hydrogel are similar to those of extracellular matrix, so that the hydrogel can be widely applied to cell delivery and tissue engineering application. However, conventional hydrogels can only provide a limited living environment for cells, and for a long time, most cells die because of the inability to efficiently ingest nutrients. Hydrogels do not maintain the viability of the DC if stored for extended periods of time, resulting in limited therapeutic efficacy. In addition, hydrogels have limited applications due to their poor mechanical properties, high storage costs, and post-operative handling difficulties.
In summary, hydrogel sustained release delivery cells for extended periods of time achieve desirable therapeutic effects and a wide range of applications require new technologies to achieve.

The Solidworks software was used to create a 3D CAD model of the design shape, PD1 vesicles and GelMA hydrogels were used as bio-ink-loaded DCs (in this example, the mass ratio of PD1 cell membrane vesicles to GelMA hydrogels was 1:150, and the mass ratio of bio-ink to vaccine of interest was 1:50). After bioprinting, the printed samples were examined using a digital microscope (Dino-Lite, anMo Electronics Corporation) and after 3 days of incubation, the samples were stained using the fluorochromes calcein-AM and PI and examined using a Confocal Laser Scanning Microscope (CLSM). In addition, cell attachment and morphology in the bio-ink scaffolds after lyophilization were observed using a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM).
5. Western blot
The sample was denatured and loaded into 10-12% polyacrylamide gel. The protein samples in the gel were then transferred to polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes and blocked with milk at 25 ℃ for 1 hour. The membranes were incubated overnight at 4℃with a primary antibody directed against PD1 (ab 214421; dilution 1:1000; abcam), na+/K+ -ATPase (ab 76020; dilution 1:1000; abcam) and GAPDH (14C 10; dilution 1:1000;Cell Signaling Technology). Subsequently, PVDF membranes were incubated with horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibodies (Cell Signaling Technology) and then detected using the West Pico PLUS chemiluminescent substrate kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific).
6. Flow cytometry
To verify the change in immune cells, we stained cells with fluorescent antibodies, the procedure was as follows: cells were stained with the appropriate antibody-fluorochrome conjugate in cold Phosphate Buffered Saline (PBS) containing 2% Fetal Calf Serum (FCS). To exclude dead cells, cells were stained using 1 μg/ml fixable active stain 510 (BD Biosciences). Cells were then blocked with rat anti-mouse CD16/CD32 (clone 2.4G2) at 4 ℃ for 5 min, then stained with the following fluorescently labeled antibodies: anti-CD 8 (clone 53-6.7), anti-CD 4 (clone GK 1.5), anti-CD 45 (clone 30-F11), anti-CD 11C (clone HL 3), anti-CD 80 (clone 16-10A 1), anti-CD 86 (clone GL 1), anti-CD 40 (clone 3/23), anti-PDL 1 (clone 10 F.9G2), anti-Granzyme B (clone QA16A 02), anti-MHC-II I-A/I-E (clone M5/114.15.2), anti-CD 3 (clone 145-2C 11). For intracellular staining, cells were fixed and permeabilized using the CytoFix/Cytoperm kit (BD). Multiparameter analysis was performed on a CytoFLEX flow cytometer (Beckman Coulter) and data analysis was performed using FlowJo software (Tree Star). To verify mouse tumors various antibodies were used, including for intracellular staining, cells were fixed and permeabilized using the CytoFix/Cytoperm kit (BD).
7. Immunohistochemistry
Tumor sections were de-waxed, rehydrated, and antigen repaired using sodium citrate, then endogenous peroxidase activity was blocked. Sections were incubated with CD8 antibody (1:1000 dilution), CD86 antibody (1:1000 dilution, both from Cell Signaling Technology), and then stained with ABC reagent (Vector Laboratories). The sections were scanned using a pannarac MIDI scanner (3 DHISTECH).
8. In vitro matured bone marrow derived dendritic cells (BMDCs)
On day 10 of BMDCs culture, BMDCs were collected and grown at 1X 10 6 The individual cells/ml concentration was re-seeded into 12-well plates. Each group was treated with PBS, 0.1. Mu.g/ml LPS, 50. Mu.g/ml 4T1 vesicles or 50. Mu.g/ml PD1 cell membrane vesicles, respectively. After 18 hours, BMDCs were collected for flow cytometry analysis.
9. In vivo sustained release and targeting
By mixing 1X 10 6 The individual BMDCs and 200 μg PD1 cell membrane vesicles were stained and mixed with GelMA hydrogel, 3D printed into scaffolds, and then transplanted subcutaneously into mice. Release of BMDCs and PD1 cell membrane vesicles in mice was assessed by in vivo imaging using an IVIS imaging system (Perkin Elmer). In addition, to study the migration of BMDCs to lymph nodes and the targeting effect of PD1 cell membrane vesicles to tumors, lymph nodes and tumors were collected on days 4 and 7 for flow cytometry and immunofluorescence analysis.
10. In vivo tumor model and treatment
For tumor prevention model, 1×10 will be 6 The BMDCs were mixed with 400 μg PD1 cell membrane vesicles and GelMA hydrogel, then 3D printed into scaffolds and transplanted subcutaneously into the left flank of mice. On day 7 after stent implantation, 6×10 injections were subcutaneously injected into the right flank of mice 5 4T1 tumor cells. On day 14 after cell injection, tumor tissue was surgically resected for downstream analysis. For the individualized postoperative recurrence prevention model, 6×10 was subcutaneously injected into the left flank of mice 5 4T1 tumor cells. On day 14 after tumor cell injection, tumors were resected. According to the size and shape of the tumor (which is similar to the size and shape of the tumor), designing a stent model, performing 3D printing, and then transplanting to the tumor excision part. On day 7 after stent implantation, 6×10 injections were subcutaneously injected into the right flank of mice 5 4T1 tumor cells.
11. Cytokine detection
On day 14 after cell injection, tumor tissue was resected for downstream analysis. On day 7 post-inoculation, BALB/c mouse serum was collected and IL-6, CXCL10 and TNF-a levels were measured using the corresponding ELISA kit (all from Invitrogen) according to the manufacturer's instructions.
12. Biocompatibility assessment
To investigate the in vivo toxicity of DCs/PD-1-cell membrane vesicles/GelMA scaffolds, PBS was injected subcutaneously or stented into BALB/c mice. On day 30 after transplantation, mice were euthanized, and blood samples were collected for whole blood examination and blood biochemical analysis using a blood biochemical analyzer (7080, hitachi, japan). The major organs were routinely processed into sections as described above and subjected to hematoxylin and eosin (H & E) staining for histological examination.
13. Statistical analysis
All results are presented as mean ± standard deviation (s.d.). A unpaired two-tailed t-test was used for both sets of comparisons, and a common one-way (or two-way) analysis of variance (ANOVA) plus Tukey's test (or Dunnett's test) was used for the sets of comparisons. The survival benefit of mice was determined using a log rank (Mantel-Cox) test. All statistical analyses were performed using Prism 9.0 software (GraphPad).
3. Experimental results
GelMA has good biocompatibility, low cost and photocrosslinking structure, making it an attractive hydrogel suitable for drug or cell loading. GelMA was converted from sol to gel under 405 nm flash light, demonstrating successful synthesis of GelMA hydrogels (see FIG. 2A). The photo-cured hydrogel was then freeze-dried and a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) was used to observe its morphology and structure. According to the results of the study, the freeze-dried hydrogels had a rich pore structure, including macropores and micropores, which made it easier for nutrients to pass through and for metabolic waste products to exit the cells (see B in fig. 2). In addition, in the case of the optical fiber, 1 The new peak "c=c" in the H NMR spectrum indicates that MA was successfully conjugated to Gel (see C in fig. 2). Dynamic time-scanning rheometry analysis showed that at 30 mW/cm exposure 2 After the 405 nm laser shot dose of (c), gelMA may be photo-cured in less than 50 seconds (see D in fig. 2). In addition, the viscosity of GelMA varies little over time (see E in fig. 2).
The inventors have further explored the 3D printing properties of bio-inks consisting of physically mixed GelMA hydrogels and bone marrow derived dendritic cells (BMDCs). Whereas GelMA is photocurable, this embodiment uses a projection micro stereolithography (pμsl) printer to fabricate hydrogel products. Based on the CAD design model, the DC bio-ink can be printed into various high-precision brackets. For 3D porous scaffolds, the bio-ink was printed layer by layer according to the design model (see F in fig. 2). Finally, the printed 3D porous scaffold exhibits a high fidelity multi-layered structure (see G in fig. 2). In addition, the 3D freeze-dried scaffold still maintains the characteristics of a rich pore structure with different pore sizes (see H, I in fig. 2). Since 3D printing provides the advantages of strong reproducibility and rapid production speed, the present solution enables one-time mass production of scaffolds for subsequent experiments (see J in fig. 2). In addition, these printed structures showed good morphology and cell viability after three days of culture in cell culture medium (see K in fig. 2). These findings indicate that GelMA hydrogels have great potential in 3D bioprinting. More importantly, the morphology of the DCs in the bio-ink scaffolds was observed by scanning electron microscopy. Experimental results indicate that DCs are tightly attached to scaffolds, indicating that scaffolds have good biocompatibility and promote cell survival (see K in fig. 2).
Specifically, fig. 2 a shows the sol-gel transition of GelMA under 405 nm nm flash irradiation. FIG. 2B shows a scanning electron microscope image of a GelMA hydrogel; scale, 10 mu m. FIG. 2C shows a GelMA hydrogel 1 H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. FIG. 2D shows a GelMA hydrogel at 30 mW cm 2 Dynamic time-scanning rheology under 405 nm laser irradiation.

A G photo-cured printed 3D porous scaffold is shown in fig. 2; scale bar, 2 mm.

The mass production and stability of the 3D porous scaffold is shown at J in fig. 2; scale bar, 4 mm. K in FIG. 2 shows 3D bioprinting DC scaffolds of different complex designs and their scanning electron microscope images; scale, 20 mu m.
To verify the advantages of the porous scaffold, mature BMDCs were mixed with GelMA hydrogels and printed into a 3D porous scaffold (see a in fig. 3). The number of surviving DCs on the 3D scaffold was higher on day 7 compared to the hydrogel (see B in fig. 3). Furthermore, as shown in fig. 3B, BMDCs began to migrate toward the edges of the 3D scaffold, which also suggests that the 3D porous scaffold maintained higher DC viability than conventional hydrogels.
To observe the homing ability of DCs in 3D scaffolds, hydrogels, DCs @ hydrogels, and DCs @3D scaffolds were transplanted subcutaneously into mice. On day 7, lymph nodes were surgically excised for flow analysis. It is exciting that DCs@3D scaffold mice have CD11c in the lymph nodes + CD86 + The proportion of DCs increases significantly (see C in figure 3). Consistently, CD11c in lymph nodes of DCs@3D stent mice compared to DCs@hydrogel mice + CD80 + DCs and MHC II + The proportion of DCs increased significantly (see D in figure 3). To determine if mature DCs in lymph nodes were derived from DCs in 3D scaffolds, DCs were stained with 1, 1-behenyl-3, 3-tetramethylindole tricarboxylic acid iodide (DID). The results showed that DID in DCs@3D scaffold mice + The proportion of DCs was significantly higher on both day 4 and day 7 than the DCs @ hydrogel mice (see E, F in figure 3). Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 3G, DID in lymph nodes of DCs@3D stent mice + The percentage of DCs was comparable to day 7 and day 4, suggesting that 3D scaffolds may extend the lymph node homing capacity of DCs. Immunofluorescence also demonstrated DID in lymph nodes of DCs@3D stent mice + The proportion of DCs increases significantly (see H in figure 3). Furthermore, DID + CD86, CD40 and MHC II expression of DCs was significantly higher than DID - DCs (see I-K in FIG. 3). This suggests that exogenous DCs homing to the lymph nodes remain highly mature. More importantly, maturity does not change with group type and time (see L in fig. 3). In addition, to observe the antitumor effect of DCs in 3D scaffolds, healthy mice were treated with hydrogel, dcs@hydrogel and dcs@3d scaffolds, respectively, followed by injection of 4T1 tumor cells. The results show that the dcs@3d scaffolds significantly inhibited tumor growth compared to dcs@hydrogels (see M in fig. 3). In addition, dcs@3d scaffolds prolonged survival of mice (see N in fig. 3). These results indicate that the 3D porous scaffold significantly improves the survival rate of DCs, promotes migration of more DCs to lymph nodes, and exerts an antitumor effect.

To improve the antitumor effect of DCs, the inventors loaded PD1 cell membrane vesicles into scaffolds. Based on its excellent biocompatibility, intrinsic stability, rapid production and nano-size, PD1 cell membrane vesicles can be used to activate DCs and synergistically improve their antitumor effect. In this example, the use of lentiviral vectors to transfect PD1 mutants into 4T1 tumor cells, immunofluorescence and flow cytometry analysis showed successful expression of PD1 on 4T1 cells (see A, B in FIG. 4). To obtain cell membrane fractions, hypotonic lysis, sonication, and gradient centrifugation were performed to remove the cell contents. The vesicles were then collected by passing 400 nm, 200 nm and 100 nm nanoporous membranes sequentially through the cell membrane using a microfluidic extruder. Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis (NTA) showed that the size of the vesicles was about 120 nm (see C in fig. 4). Transmission electron microscopy confirmed that the vesicles had a golgi cup-shaped membrane vesicle structure and expressed PD-1, successfully producing PD1 cell membrane vesicles (see D, E in fig. 4).
BMDCs were treated with Phosphate Buffered Saline (PBS), lipopolysaccharide (LPS), 4T1 vesicles and PD1 cell membrane vesicles, respectively, and analyzed by flow cytometry after 18 hours. After incubation with vesicles, CD80 and CD86 expression of BMDCs was up-regulated (see G, H in fig. 4). Furthermore, vesicles significantly up-regulated the expression of major histocompatibility complex II (MHC II) and CD40 compared to PBS-cultured BMDCs (see I, K in fig. 4). Flow cytometry showed that vesicles were effective in stimulating DCs maturation and antigen presentation. PD-L1 expression on the surface of DCs is a major cause of DC innate immunity suppression, and the expression level increases with the activation degree. As shown by L in fig. 4, PD-L1 expression of LPS and 4T1 vesicle-treated BMDCs was significantly up-regulated. Meanwhile, PD-L1 expression of DCs cultured with PD1 cell membrane vesicles was down-regulated compared to LPS and 4T1 vesicles (see L in fig. 4). To further demonstrate that PD1 cell membrane vesicles can block PD-L1 on BMDC surfaces, DID-stained PD1 cell membrane vesicle 4T1 vesicles were co-cultured with DCs for 18 hours. Flow cytometry showed significant up-regulation of DID expression of DCs co-cultured with DID-stained PD1 cell membrane vesicles. When the PD-L1 antibody was added, the expression of DID was decreased (M, N in FIG. 4).
Specifically, FIG. 4A shows immunofluorescence images of primordial and engineered cells; scale, 10 mu m.

To verify the antitumor effect of the vaccine, healthy BALB/c mice were subcutaneously implanted with DCs/PD1 cell membrane vesicle @ scaffold, DCs/4T1 vesicle @ scaffold, DCs @ scaffold or scaffold alone 7 days prior to 4T1 tumor cell inoculation, and other mice were subcutaneously injected with PBS. On day 0, 6×10 mice were injected on the dorsal side 5 The tumors were removed from 4T1 cells for downstream analysis (see a in fig. 5). As shown in fig. 5B, there was no significant difference in tumor growth between PBS and stent-only groups; mice treated with scaffolds alone were not effective in inhibiting tumor growth. In contrast, mice treated with dcs @ scaffolds showed inhibition of tumor growth. The DCs/4T1 vesicle @ stent group did not show significant tumor suppression compared to the DCs @ stent group. On the other hand, DCs/PD1 cell membrane vesicle @ scaffolds were able to significantly and more significantly inhibit tumor growth than DCs @ scaffolds (see C, D in fig. 5). This suggests that PD1 cell membrane vesicles may stimulate and synergistically enhance DCs to inhibit tumor growth; mice receiving DCs/PD1 cell membrane vesicle @ scaffold treatment experienced significant tumor weight inhibition (see E in fig. 5). During the treatment period, the body weight of the mice in the treatment group did not significantly decrease (see F in fig. 5). In addition, CD3 in DCs/PD1 cell membrane vesicles @ scaffold tumors + T cellMiddle CD8 + The proportion of T cells was about 5-fold higher than in the other groups, e.g. the PBS group (see G, H in fig. 5). In contrast, CD4 in DCs/PD1 cell membrane vesicles @ scaffold tumors + The proportion of T cells was lower than in the PBS group (see I in fig. 5). Granzyme B + CD8 + The proportion of T cells in DCs/PD1 cell membrane vesicles @ scaffold tumors was about 3-fold that of PBS group (see J in fig. 5). Spleen CD8 + T cells, granzyme B + CD8 + The ratio of T cells to mature DCs was higher in the DCs/PD1 cell membrane vesicle @ scaffold group than in the other groups (see K-M in fig. 5). The results indicate that the anti-tumor effect is systemic in mice and is not limited to tumor sites. Cytokine testing showed that the expression of IL-6, CXCL10 and TNF- α was significantly increased in serum of DCs/PD1 cell membrane vesicles @ scaffold compared to PBS group (see N in fig. 5), revealing that PD1 cell membrane vesicles exert potent anti-tumor effects in synergy with DCs.

To better expand the application of 3D printing, a 3D stent is used in this embodiment to fill the post-operative tumor surgical incision. In this example, DCs/PD1 cell membrane vesicle @ scaffolds suitable for surgical defects were printed, simulating clinical post-operative breast cancer prosthetic filling. The flow chart is shown in fig. 6 a. First, a tumor implanted in the back of the mouse was excised and scanned using software to design a 3D model. BMDCs were then printed as 3D scaffolds using PD1 cell membrane vesicles/GelMA bio-ink and implanted into the surgical defect site. Finally, 4T1 tumor cells were subcutaneously injected on the contralateral back of mice (B in fig. 6). As shown in fig. 6C, these models were designed and printed into stents according to the shape of the tumor. After stent implantation, mice treated with DCs/PD1 cell membrane vesicles @ stent were able to significantly and more significantly inhibit tumor growth (see D, E in fig. 6) and had a longer survival (see F in fig. 6). During the treatment period, the body weight of the mice in the treatment group did not significantly decrease (see G in fig. 6). CD86 in DCs/PD1 cell membrane vesicle @ scaffold + DC and CD80 + The proportion of DC increases significantly (see H, I in fig. 6). Furthermore, tumor apoptosis was significantly increased in mice treated with DCs/PD1 cell membrane vesicles @ scaffolds, CD8 in tumors + T cell expression was also higher (see J, K in fig. 6). These results indicate that DCs/PD1 cell membrane vesicles @ scaffolds can be used for both post-operative wound packing and inhibition of distant tumor growth.
Specifically, fig. 6 a shows a schematic diagram of a tumor model after surgery. A schematic of the experimental design is shown in fig. 6B. The personalized wound packing design process is shown at C in fig. 6. The tumor growth curves of mice after different treatments are shown in fig. 6D.

Mechanistically, porous scaffolds significantly improved long-term survival of DCs from 16% to 70% and promoted migration of DCs to lymph nodes, relative to traditional hydrogels. Meanwhile, the PD1 cell membrane vesicle is used as an immunomodulator of DCs, can stimulate the DCs to mature and bind PDL1 on the surface of the DCs, and effectively promotes the combination of DCs and T cells. In the mouse 4T1 tumor model, 3D-printed DC vaccine significantly inhibited tumor growth, intratumoral CD8 + The T cell fraction was 55.9%, significantly higher than 11.7% of the control group.
