Abstract

The present invention relates to various methods of genetic immunization for the purpose of providing antigen-specific immunity in a mammalian host, including a human host. The invention is based on the ability to direct particulate polynucleotides which express an antigenic protein or protein fragment to the cytoplasm of host target cells, such as antigen presenting cells. A directed delivery of such particulate polynucleotides to the cytoplasm of antigen presenting cells will stimulate antigen-specific CTL production, thus promoting destruction of affected cells such as neoplastic cells and virally infected cells.

Description

The immunoreactive spread effect of oriented particles genetic immunization pair cell mediation
1. foreword
For carrying out genetic immunization, be core of the present disclosure place at the mammalian body internal stimulus antigen specific immune that comprises the human host.This specification discloses the target cell to the host, as the kytoplasm transmission particle polynucleotides of antigen presenting cell.These particle polynucleotide encodings can be near the antigen protein or the antigen protein fragment of target cell kytoplasm.The expression of antigen gene causes antigen specific immune reaction, and it comprises but is not only limited to the inducing action of (CTL) of the former specificity cell toxicity T lymphocyte of antagonism.Antigen is able to by endogenous MHC I approach antigen-presenting peptide on film near kytoplasm.Film by endogenous MHC I approach is presented the inducing action that can stimulate the antigen specific CTL.Derivative then antigentic specificity CTL can lead and destroy the host cell that influenced by antigen presentation, for example cell of neoplastic cell or virus infections.2. background of invention
Cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) is antitumor or the key composition of effective human immunity reaction of virus infections.Cytotoxic T lymphocyte destroys neoplastic cell or virus infected cell by MHC I molecular presentation in the lip-deep antigenic peptides of infected target cell by identification.These antigenic peptides are the catabolites that are present in the exogenous proteins in the cytosol of infected cell, and are wherein processed and be and pass CTL by endogenous MHC I processing approach.
Though MHC I molecular recognition extraneous protein may be enough to discern and destroy infected target cell by CTL, also some other signal need be arranged from T lymphocyte precursor inducing antigen-specific CTL.The antigen presenting cell of specialization (APC) can provide the needed antigen induction period-MHC I part and the auxiliary signal of CTL mediation immunity.The general feature of APC comprises that MHC I and II express, to the expression of the various adhesion molecules of APC-lymphocytes interactions particular importance, and the expression of costimulatory molecules such as CD 80 and CD 86.The example of APC comprise macrophage and dendritic cell (comprise the bright Chinese Schwann Cells of epidermis of skin, the dendritic cell of skin, and lymph node and and spleen in dendritic cell).
Carry out immunity inoculation in the body with killed tumour cell, virus infected cell or protein component, effort with the inducing antigen-specific ctl response does not generally all have successfully, infers that its reason is that protein in the extracellular fluid can not enter cytosol and present approach near MHC I.
The genetic immunization method has several attractive features.Several vivo gene transfer methods that comprise retrovirus or adenovirus mediated gene transfer and directly inject naked DNA have caused transgene expression (relevantly to comment referring to Krishnaw etc., 1995, nature medical science (NatureMed.) 1:521-522 and Pardoll etc., 1995, immunity (Immunity) 3:165-169).
People such as Williams (1991, studies show that NAS's journal (Proc.Natl.Acad.Sci.USA) 88:2726-2730) causes the expression of protein luciferase in the integral skin cell after the firefly luciferase genes is sent in biology bombardment (biobalistic).Be not devoted to ctl response in these researchs, do not consider the directed cell-mediated immunoreactive specificity host cell that produces yet.
People such as Tang (1992, nature (Nature) 356:152-154) utilize biological bombardment (biobalistic) to install the humoral response that produces exogenous proteins.The hGH encoding gene that will be under the control of CMV promotor or beta-actin promotor is sent to the epidermal tissue of mouse.Detect the anti-hGH antibody that produces in the mouse reaction of body inherence to this immunologic process.People such as Tang are the openly genetic immunization of the immunization route of cell guiding mediation not.People such as Tang do not have open or the directly genetic immunization of guiding APC cell of prompting.
People such as Fynan (1993, the journal 90:11478-11482 of NAS) use the plasmid DNA construction body of encoding influenza virus hemagglutinin glycoprotein further to confirm people's such as Tang discovery.People such as Fynan will by particle gun to epidermis DNA delivery bag by the humoral response that gold grain produced and other mechanism contrast; and the discovery biological bombardment of use (biobalistic) device 1) generation is to 95% protective effect of lethal influenza viruse attack; 2) be the valid approach the most of dna immunization inoculation; prove its in fact than in mucous membrane, the muscle or intravenous administration more effective, and 3) the DNA requirement lacks 250 to 2500 times than salt solution inoculation.People such as Fynan are not open or point out the APC cell that directly leads to carry out genetic immunization.Do not mention the immunity of CTL mediation.
Liu and colleague thereof (Montgomery etc., 1993, DNA cell biology (DNACell Biol.) 12:777-783; Ulmer etc., 1993, science (Science) .259:1745-1749; Donnelly etc., 1995, natural medical science 1:583-587) but proved the antigentic specificity ctl response of nondirectional non-specific intramuscular injection naked DNA inducing anti-disease poisonous protein and the protective immunity of antiviral attack.These researchs are not disclosed as carries out genetic immunization to APC directional transmissions genetic stocks.
People such as Sun (1995, the journal 92:2889-2893 of NAS) utilize biological bombardment (biobalistic) device to produce antitumor reaction in the mouse body.The author has directly transported the plasmid construction body of expressing IL-6 to the mouse interior tumor position.The expression of IL-6 provides a kind of non-specific cytokine gene therapy that is oriented to tumour of form.There is not the antigen specific immune of proposition at tumour.People such as Sun are not open or prompt for genetic immunization and direct target APC cell.
People such as Kundig (1995, science, 268:1343-1346) proof, it is very crucial that proteantigen is positioned on the lymphoid organ for inducing antigen-specific ctl response in the body.But do not study genetic immunization.
Kovacsovics-Bankowski and Rock (1995, science 267:243-246) prove that usually the phagosome of the proteantigen that can not present by the endogenous approach of MHC I is to the cytosol approach.The author infers that can enter MHCI on the protein fact of particle form of internalization in the phagosome presents required kytoplasm approach.But this research does not indicate genetic stocks complete on the function carries out cytosol to the kytoplasm approach by phagosome ability.
People such as Falo (1995, nature medical science 1:649-653) prove that directly the delivery of particles proteantigen can produce the antineoplastic immune that antigentic specificity CTL mediates in the mouse body in animal body, thereby provide foundation for the phagosome in the support to kytoplasm approach.They prove that if with the particle form administration, protein is injected directly in the animal body, its phagosome that can enter APC specifically is to the kytoplasm approach.But this literary composition does not describe the genetic immunization method in detail.Do not point out the remains material that gives in the body by this approach functional completeness enter the ability of APC or other types cell cytoplasm.
Pardoll and Beckerleg (1995, immune 3:165-169) have commented the immunology of naked DNA vaccine recently.They point out emphatically the importance of the dna immunization inoculation mechanism of further determining present the unknown.Specifically, their conclusion is: " mechanism of illustrating the reaction of naked DNA activate immunity is very important.Have only by these research, could introduce flexibly and modify, " to make it on quality and quantity, bringing into play maximum function.
Although put down in writing many achievements in research in the above-mentioned list of references, can be but still need to develop at particular cell types in the host, with the immunity of stimulator antigen specific CTL mediation, and promote the genetic immunization method of direct destruction host's internal specific neoplastic cell or virus infected cell conversely.The present invention notes and has satisfied this needs.3. brief summary of the invention

The ability of the biological bombardment of estimation immunity inoculation inducing antigen-specific CTL.With altogether at the most 2.64 μ gOVA coding DNAs be sent in the skin of abdomen with 2 overlapping pulses, be used to the C57B1/6 mouse of testing for the first time with immunity, and after 7 days, carry out same booster immunization.The homology mouse thymus knurl EG7 cell of OVA is expressed in the splenocyte cracking of external these mouse that stimulate again of process, but parent's tumour EL4 cell (Fig. 3 A) of not cracking untransfected.Therefore, the target cell lysis is an antigentic specificity, and the OVA that depends on the tumour target expresses.The T cell subsets that uses mAb to get rid of in the effector cell colony proves that lysis depends on the Thy1 with I class MHC Restricted CTL effector cell feature +, CD8 +Subgroup (Fig. 3 B).
After respectively organizing mouse 7 days,, induce the ability of protectiveness tumour immunity to determine biological bombardment immunity inoculation method in attacking animal away from immune position intracutaneous injection MO4 melanoma cells by above-mentioned immunity and booster immunization.The OVA mice immunized can stop the lethal tumor challenge, and then the carrying out property growth of tumour of control group mice (with the similarity method immunity, but use the lacZ reporter gene), and 60% animal cause death (Fig. 3 C) was arranged in the time of the 60th day.The OVA mice immunized does not avoid suffering the changing of parent's melanoma b16 of untransfected to hit (Fig. 3 D), shows that protective immunity is an antigentic specificity, and the OVA that depends on the tumour target expresses.We are by repeating the CD8 that the anti-CD8mAb of intraperitoneal injection gets rid of immune animal or control group (the lacZ immunity) animal before tumor challenge +The effector cell is with estimation CD8 +The effector cell is to the contribution (Falo etc., 1995, natural medical science 1:649-653) of this protectiveness tumour immunity.Though the animal of OVA immunity can avoid suffering the attack of MO4, through the immunity eliminating CD8 +The survival rate of the animal of T cell is but similar in appearance to the survival rate (Fig. 3 E-F) of getting rid of or do not get rid of the control animals of T cell.Therefore, CD8 +The T cell is absolutely necessary to the protectiveness tumour immunity of inducing through genetic immunization in this model.
Support other evidences of the tumour immunity mechanism proposed to comprise, prove that transmitting behind the lacZ construct beta galactosidase in the epidermis in the biology bombardment expresses, and interesting be that generation is specific expressed in the separate areas in draining lymph node.Because these lymph nodes away from the immunity inoculation position, are the results of direct physical bombardment so lymph node is expressed unlikely.DNA transmit back 24 hours in by the epidermis of immune skin and cortical cell (undyed) gold grain preponderate, and in epidermal keratinocyte, had lacZ express at 48 hours.The specific stain that separate areas is also arranged in draining lymph node.Mouse sample through the same irrelevant dna immunization of handling does not show that then lacZ expresses.This observed result impels us further to analyze, described in the 8th one of embodiment.8. embodiment: carry out genetic immunization through subcutaneous administration
Give described in the material and method such as embodiment part 6 and embodiment part 7 of particle polynucleotides with the induced tumor immunity through subcutaneous.
Lead specifically engulfing property APC in the lymphatic tissue of this digital proof hypodermic injection particle polynucleotides in body maybe can be transported to the ability of adenoid APC.
Use the particle polynucleotides that comprise pAc-Neo-OVA and immune respectively organize mouse by direct hypodermic injection or biological bombardment, the ability (Fig. 5) of the antitumor attack that is equal to all must be arranged.Conform to the discovery described in the embodiment part 7, particle polynucleotides (for example pIEglacZ) immunity of the antigen that has nothing to do with encoding can not provide protective effect (Fig. 5).Hypodermic injection does not have the pAc-Neo-OVA of particle that the protective effect (Fig. 5) of the relevant tumor challenge of antagonism can not be provided.These data show that hypodermic injection particle polynucleotides are effective as biological bombardment particle transports at least.In addition because hypodermic injection does not cause polynucleotides particle direct physical micropellet bombardment in the kytoplasm of indivedual host cells, so the expression of polynucleotides need engulf by having probably/host cell of endocytosis ability initiatively takes in said polynucleotides.Hypodermic injection does not have the pAc-Neo-OVA of particle not provide protective effect this observed result yet, means the Transduction Mechanism that particle transports/engulfs yet.Carry out the cell that the preferential target of particle transduction hint transgene expression has phagocytic activity by engulfing, comprise APC.
Other evidences of this mechanism that support is proposed are, observe APC (dendritic cell of bone marrow derived) in (pAc-Neo-OVA) cultivation altogether of particle polynucleotides (press described in the embodiment 7 preparation) external and the coding ovalbumin, can stimulate OVA (SIINFEKL +K b) specific T-cells hybridoma RF33.70 produces IL-2 (Fig. 4).These digital proofs, these APC energy functional expression ovalbumin genes also produce ovalbumin peptide-K bCompound.The effectiveness that stimulates is with similar with the observed effectiveness of APC of 2mg/ml solubility OVA protein pulse.Use gold or iron as particle matrix, the particle polynucleotides are effective in this detection method.Therefore, the particle polynucleotides are incubated the endogenous that causes transfected antigen with engulfing property APC and produce, process and present external.These observe proof, and the particle polynucleotides can be taken in and express by APC, and corresponding proteins matter can be able to functional presenting, with the inducing antigen-specific immune response.
Moreover; as shown in Figure 6; with the antigen presenting cell of the external insulation of particle polynucleotides of coding for antigens OVA, be the dendritic cell of hypodermic bone marrow derived in this example as stated above, can induce the protective immunity of the tumour cell of anti-antigen expressed gene.In the example that provides, once come into operation 10 5Dendritic cell/the animal of individual irradiated transfection (every hind leg (bilateral) 5 * 10 4Individual cell) induced the protective effect of antitumor attack completely.Therefore, the dendritic cell APC-that comes into operation in the body its in external load be the strong stimulus-have at least of antigentic specificity CTL and protectiveness tumour immunity during peptide to through being incubated altogether to the particle polynucleotides load similar immunogenicity during antigen.
With these results consideration of putting together, always show that the subcutaneous particle polynucleotides that give have the advantage of transporting antigen to engulfing property APC orientation, potentiality ground increases the efficient of genetic immunization and reduces and do not need ill-effect, comprising but be not only limited to inducing tolerance or because of the sudden change due to the normal non-APC host cell of transfection.
