Description

Immunogenic peptide and application thereof from MAGE
The present invention relates to derive from the peptide of MAGE family protein, also relate to these peptides as the purposes of immunogen in tumor prevention and treatment.
In the past few years, use tumor-specific cytotoxicity T lymphocyte (CTLs) to be separated to the gene (Van den Eynde, B.J. etc., Curr.Opin.Immunol., 9:684-693,1997) of several encoding tumour antigen.According to the expression pattern in tumour and healthy tissues, these antigens can be divided into four classes according to tumour-specific and clinical correlation.The first kind is included in the antigen of the genes encoding of expressing in the various tumours of histological types (histotype) but not expressing in all healthy tissuess except that the testis sexual cell, for example: MAGE (melanoma associated antigen), GAGE and BAGE.Second class is represented differentiation antigen, only expresses in melanoma and melanophore, for example tyrosine oxidase, Melan-A/MART-1, gp100, TRP-1 and TRP-2.The antigen that belongs to the 3rd class is produced through point mutation by the gene of generally expressing.The 4th class antigen only just is being defined recently, and its representative is TRP-2-INT2, in a kind of melanoma common exist and the antigen of in the normal cell of melanocyte pedigree, not expressing.
The tumour antigen that particularly belongs to MAGE family causes sizable interest, because in them six, MAGE-1,2,3,4,6 and 12 is by quite a few former and metastatic tumor (comprising melanoma, lung cancer, bladder cancer, ovarian cancer and mammary cancer) selective expression (van der Bruggen, P., Deng, Science, 254:1643-1647,1991).
Derive from MAGE-1 albumen (van der Bruggen, P., etc., Science, 254:1643-1647,1991) and the interior nine amino acid peptide of processing of the proteic cell of MAGE-3, length is 8-10 amino acid, and is open and be considered to immunogenic substance (WO 95/19783).
Based on the vaccine inoculation clinical experiment of using MAGE-1 and MAGE-3 coding for antigens peptide, in melanoma and other tumour patient make progress on one's body (Machand, M. etc., Int.J.Cancer80:219-230,1999).Up to now, in fact MAGE-2,4 and 6 antigens can not be considered to tumour antigen, so they can not be as the target of tumour-specific immunotherapy.Reason is to be much to seek to discern the cytotoxic T lymphocyte that derives from MAGE-2,4 and 6 peptide.
Limitation based on the treatment plan that uses peptide is that the CTL epi-position that has characterized (that is to say, tumor antigen peptide and suitable HLA-I class allelotrope) be limited quantity, and produced in the body and lost antigenic varient, it can escape the immune response (Restifo that is caused by monoclonal antibody originality vaccine, N.P., etc., J.Natl.Cancer.Inst., 88:100-108,1996).Particularly, lose the generation of antigenic varient, be a major cause of immune programme for children failure, found that this is owing to select the antigenic tumour cell of not expressing by the identification of tumor response lymphocyte, for example as the result of molecular defect, cause allelic disappearance of HLA-I class or downward modulation (Garrido, F., etc., Immunol.Today, 14:491-499,1993).Yet in some cases, tumour loses or has changed the antigenic gene of codes for tumor (Jager, Int.J.Cancer such as E., 71:142-147,1997), escapes immune control with another kind of mechanism.
Usually, the clinical protocol of tumour-specific immunity only has been applied to carry and has expressed the patient who knows tumour antigen and the allelic tumour of definite HLA.Unfortunately, most of tumour patients do not satisfy these standards.Therefore, be necessary to identify new antigenic determinant to be used for antineoplastic immunization protocol, those of " wide spectrum " preferably, promptly expressed by greater amt tumor tissues type or in the various ways of same tumour, express.
Have now found that, and this also is a first aspect of the present invention,, differentiates epi-position into new HLA-B*3701 restriction by one group of peptide of MAGE-1,2,3,4,6 and 12 dna homolog regional codes.
According to their source, the peptide among the present invention is named as MAGE-1,2,3,4,6 and 12 127-136, and in SEQ ID NO.1-3, reported its sequence.MAGE-1,2,3 and 6 has identical sequence, and as described in SEQ ID NO.1, and the sequence of MAGE-4 and 12 is respectively SEQ ID NO.2 and 3.
Vitro cytotoxicity test has proved on cytotoxic T cell recognition expression MAGE-1,2,3,4, the 6 different antigenic various clones with 12 peptide of the present invention in conjunction with HLA-B*3701 histocompatibility allelotrope (allele), and is activated when being exposed to them.In these trials, the peptide with SEQ ID NO:1 sequence shows high reactivity, is preferred therefore.
Differentiate that the different antigenic common epitopes of MAGE family have superiority very much, can partly overcome above-mentioned shortcoming at least because it makes.The more important thing is, use this " many antigenicities " epi-position (pluriantigenic), that is to say, the epi-position that the more antigens of MAGE family are total, make and to overcome above-mentioned antigenic loss, because therefore common one above MAGE gene of tumour coexpression of determining very can not lose the immune response that peptide of the present invention induces.This just can improve patient's quantity that the clinical tumor immunity test can be successful.
Should point out emphatically, the immunogenicity potentiality of people MAGE-2 and MAGE-6 never were proved to be, even known 12% oophoroma lacks MAGE-1 and MAGE-3 and expresses MAGE-2 and/or MAGE-6.
The enough conventional art preparations of Toplink among the present invention, preferably preparation synthetically, for example according to Merrifield, (1986) science (Science) 232:341-347 and Barany and Merrifield, peptide (The Peptides), Gross and Meienhofer compiles, (N.Y., Academic Press), the described method of 1-284 page or leaf (1979) is carried out.Synthetic can carry out (Stewart and Young, Solid Phase PeptideSynthesis, the 2nd edition, Rockford Ill., Pierce Chemical Co. (1984)) in liquid phase or solid phase or with automatic DNA synthesizer DNA.Perhaps, peptide also can begin preparation with recombinant DNA technology or from containing required segmental natural precursor protein.Amino-acid residue can for example be attached on the fat by chemically modified, glycosylation and with other peptide coupling, to obtain how favourable characteristics, for example higher with HLA molecule avidity, immunogenicity is stronger, and it is higher to induce the immunne response selectivity, or higher bioavailability is arranged after using.Peptide also can induce the epi-position coupling that T " assists " cell response with other known MHC molecule by identical or different type.
The present invention further also relates to the pharmaceutical composition of the described peptide here that contains significant quantity.According to embodiment preferred, said composition is a vaccine, particularly is suitable for cancer susceptibility patient's preventative immunoprophylaxis or the therapeutic immunoprophylaxis in tumour patient.Except that active ingredient, said composition will comprise pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle." significant quantity " refers to the amount that is enough to excite the effective CTL at tumour to reply.This amount depends on employed peptide, route of administration and type, pathology severity to be treated and patient's generalized case, and usually should amount at 100-300 μ g, 1 month or shorter time are with 3 times or more times administration at interval.Usually carry out twice subcutaneous vaccination and twice intradermal inoculation, dosage is that each subcutaneous vaccination is 4/10 of a total dose, and each intradermal inoculation is 1/10 of total dose.Change inoculation position when inoculating as far as possible at every turn.The preparation of vaccine and use technology are known by these those skilled in the art, also be described in for example Paul, FundamentalImmunology (basic immunology), Raven Press, New York (New York) (1989) or Cryz, S.J., immunotherapy and vaccine (Immunotherapy and Vaccines), VCHVerlagsgesselschaft (1991).Vaccine is prepared into the form of injectable suspension or solution usually, but they also can use with the form of solid-state or liposome.Immunogenic components can with acceptable mixed with excipients on the pharmacology, for example adjuvant of emulsifying agent, buffer reagent and enhancing vaccine effect.Vaccine can be by single dose or multiple dose administration.Under the multiple doses situation, 1 to 10 independently dosage is provided, each contains 1 μ g-1000 μ g antigen, and at interval certain hour is kept or booster immunization reacts necessary other booster immunization subsequently, and if desired, and immunity is once again after the some months.Under every kind of situation, processing scheme will depend on by the process of treatment reaction, its general situation and tumour.
On the other hand, the invention provides a kind of method, to induce at the cytotoxic reaction of expressing the antigenic tumour cell of one or more MAGE, this method comprises makes peptide of the present invention contact under the condition that is suitable for the activating cytotoxic T cell with the T lymphocyte.Directly exposing the T lymphocyte when being included in cultivation for the conditions suitable that obtains the ideal cytotoxic effect gives described peptide or makes described peptide in conjunction with HLA I quasi-molecule in advance, preferred HLA-B*3701, or prophylactically make described peptide in conjunction with the antigen presenting cell (APC) of expressing described HLA molecule, then be exposed to the T lymphocyte.Proper A PC cell is peripheral blood self mononuclearcell (PBMC) or dendritic cell, scavenger cell and activatory B cell.The APC that give to cultivate adds the sufficiently long time of peptide, forming peptide/APC combination, and adds subsequently and contains the lymphocytic cell mass of T and make it activation and propagation.Lymphocyte can be taken from subject patient, and the activation back feeds back to same patient.Can strengthen peptide/APC combination by preventative " peeling off " (" stripping ") of the histocompatibility molecule that exists on the APC cell.Selectively, the APC cell can be transformed into and express HLA-B*3701 histocompatibility allelotrope.And can comprise one or more in the substratum and help to improve CD8 +Precursor activatory cytokine.Feeding back to before the patient, lymphocyte can be by for example ligands specific affinity column purifying.
The invention still further relates to specific recognition by HLA I quasi-molecule, preferred HLA-B*3701 molecule and be selected from the cytotoxic T cell system of the mixture that the peptide of SEQ ID1-6 forms.Cytotoxic T cell system can be by obtaining by the activatory cell when being exposed to the tumour cell that contains antigenic determinant described herein from the B lymphocyte repertoire screening.
According to a further aspect, the invention provides and induce immunoreactive cell, for example APC, dendritic cell etc., the carrier of the encoded peptide of the present invention of described cell (for example virus or retroviral vector, for example derive from adenovirus or slow virus or MLV) transformation, peptide of the present invention is taked the fusion rotein form with the fusion of suitable carrier alternatively, expresses effectively in cell, and processes and be exposed to cell surface.In this case, the DNA of code book disclosure of the Invention epi-position is inserted in the suitable expression vector, make under its control that is in suitable promotor, the example of described promotor is a viral promotors, for example CMV and SV40 (if desired very high level expression), or the inducible promoter inducible promoter of moulting hormone (ecdisone) control for example.In this case, described epi-position is by the zone (Genbank of MAGE-1 cDNA corresponding to the 127-136 amino acids, N.M77481) other antigenic homologous region coding and in the MAGE family: amino acid MAGE-1 aminoacid sequence Nucleotide (cDNA) 127-136 REPVTKAEML 562-590

But observed detection does not go out or just the surface molecular of detection level (Fig. 1) as if deficiency so that immune effector cell is given in antigen presentation.In fact, MSR3 clone can not induce cytotoxic reaction from the PBLs from body.It is not because the β of damage that MSR3-mel lacks I class cell surface expression 2M is synthetic to be caused, because can detect β by enough RT-PCR 2The specific mRNA of m.
For determining whether HLA I class antigen presentation can recover, the MSR3-mel cell cDNA stable transfection of coding from body HLA-B*3701 molecule.After G418 selected, the MSR3-B37 clone that flow cytometry analysis shows transfection was by W6/32 monoclonal antibody dye (Fig. 1).
For estimating on the MSR3-B37 clone surface whether have tumour specific antigen, detected that melanoma cells induces tumor specific cytotoxicity effector cell's ability and they are by these CTLs cracked susceptibilities.According to " material and method " described PBLs with MSR3-B37 stimulated in vitro patient.After stimulating three-wheel, the polyclone cytotoxic T cell is 337 (CTLs 337) specificity cracking MSR3B37 clone, but the MSR3-mel of not cracking untransfected (Fig. 2).Be not identified from the MSR3-EBV of body cell and PHA-activated T parent cell, show that the epi-position of these CTLs identifications is that melanoma/melanocyte is special.In fact, except from the melanoma cells of body, CTLs 337 is cracking HLA-B*3701 male melanoma cell series ET1 (Fig. 2) also, shows the one or more total melanoma antigens of identification.
These data show that HLA I class is expressed can be recovered by the transfection of MSR3 melanoma cells, and transfection the melanoma cell series of HLA-B*3701 molecule can induce the cytotoxic T cell reaction of tumour-specific.
Embodiment 2
Identify CTLs 337 identified epitope
Be to identify the antigen of CTLs 337 identifications, in transfection the γ IFN release of evaluate CT Ls 337 in the presence of plasmid pcDNA3.1/B*3701 and coding MAGE 6 members' of family (MAGE-1,2,3,4,6 and 12) the Cos-7 cell of cDNA (some is expressed by MSR3-mel and ET1).The transfection of CTLs337 specific recognition MAGE-1,2,3 and 6 Cos-7 cell, the epi-position target that shows CTLs 337 is a common in four different antigens, and the identification of perhaps few clone (oligoclonal) T clone heterogeneity derives from the peptide of four MAGE-gene products.When existing, the Cos-7 cell of MAGE-4 and MAGE-12 transfection detects low-level γ-IFN (Fig. 3).
For identifying the sequence of the coding for antigens peptide that CTLs 337 discerns, it approximately is 495 and 1 that the cDNA of coding MAGE-1 obtains 2 with Bgl II and EcoRI digestion, the subfragment of 072bp.These fragments are cloned into plasmid pcDNA3.1 and are advanced the Cos-7 cell with the transfection of HLA-B*3701 molecule.495 and 1, there are the initiator codon that meets single open reading frame in segmental 202bp of 072bp and 707bp place, have guaranteed the expression of these two subfragments in the transfectional cell respectively.In transfection being on close level of can discharging with the Cos-7 cell of whole M AGE-1 gene transfection of the level of the segmental Cos-7 cell of 495bp γ-IFN that CTLs 337 discharges when existing, show that antigen peptide is in this regional code.Screen the peptide that carries the HLA-B*3701 binding motif in this 495bp fragment encode amino acid sequence (Rammensee, H.G., etc., Immnogenetics, 41:178-228,1995).Identify 5 peptides: in the position 2 places be aspartic acid or L-glutamic acid and in the position 9/10 place is Isoleucine or leucine.One of them peptide, REPVTKAEML also is present in MAGE-2, MAGE-3 and the MAGE-6 amino acid sequence coded.This peptide, called after MAGE. 127-136, in titration experiments, be used to make MSR3-EBV clone sensitization with by CTLs 337 cracking.The MSR3-EBV cell also is used as target cell again with peptide REPVTKAEML stimulation in cytotoxicity experiment (Fig. 4 a).The 90nM peptide reaches the cracking of half maximum.Do not observe with the MSR3EBV that can stimulate cracking (Fig. 4 b) is arranged in conjunction with the irrelevant peptide of HLA-B*3701.
CTLs 337 discharges low-level γ-IFN (Fig. 3) when the Cos-7 cell of expressing MAGE-4 and MAGE-12 exists.For confirming that whether this release can be used the MSR3-EBV that stimulates with two peptides as target cell by the identification owing to 127-136 bit codon encoded peptide among the MAGE-4, carries out peptide in conjunction with research.Peptide M4. 127-136(KELVTKAEML) with peptide REPVTKAEML two amino acid different (position 1 place's arginine changes Methionin into, and 3 place's proline(Pro) change leucine in the position) are arranged, and peptide M12. 127-136(REPFTKAEML) 1 amino acid difference (position 4 place's Xie Ansuans change phenylalanine into) is only arranged.The result discloses two Toplink and combines with HLA-B*3701, because both amount increases can both suppress with peptide REPVTKAEML rather than (be M3. with irrelevant HLA-A1-binding peptide 271-279) cracking (Fig. 4 b) of the MSR3-EBV that stimulates.Yet, do not observe and use peptide M4. 127-136And M12. 127-136The identification of the EBV cell that stimulates.
In a word, these data show that CTLs 337 can discern MAGE-1,2,3 and 6 peptides of endogenous processing.
Embodiment 3
The product of CTL 337 specific recognition MAGE-2 and MAGE-6 gene
Up to now, do not exist people MAGE-2 and MAGE-6 proteins encoded that immunogenic evidence is arranged.In fact, although identified MAGE-1,3,4 and 12 encoded peptides that can form the antigenic complex of being discerned by various CTLs, also do not identify the peptide of MAGE-2 or MAGE-6 genes encoding in conjunction with HLA I quasi-molecule.
Can be from MAGE-2 and MAGE-6 gene processed and be and pass CTLs 337 in order to prove in melanoma cells peptide REPVTKAEML, once seek the melanoma cell series of expressing MAGE-2 or MAGE-6 and not expressing other MAGE gene.Unfortunately, the MAGE expression of gene is strict relevant in the melanoma, and most of melanoma is expressed the more than one composition of MAGE gene family.In fact, do not have to find optionally to express the melanoma cell series of MAGE-2, and found the melanoma cell series of a strain selective expression MAGE-6 that Me 14932.
With the specific oligonucleotide primer of each MAGE gene Me 14932 melanoma cell series are made RT-PCR and analyze, confirm that only MAGE-6 is positive, be low expression level.For determining whether the REPVTKAEML peptide is presented from the processing of MAGE-6 product endogenous and by HLA-B*3701, according to " material and method " described retroviral vector transduction Me14932 with a coding HLA-B*3701 molecule and a surface markers (Δ LNGFR).The cell of transduction, Me 14932-LB37 is with the expression of magnetic bead immunoselection Δ LNGFR.The immunofluorescence analysis of making of HLA-Bw4-specificity mAb shows, the low at least twice of the expression ratio MSR3-B37 melanoma cells of HLA-B*3701 on Me 14932 transducer cell surfaces.CTLs 337 can discern Me 14932-LB37 clone in cytotoxicity experiment, and exogenous (hexogenous) when adding peptide REPVTKAEML the cracking level improve, and stimulate and Me 14932 clones that do not stimulate not to be identified (Fig. 5).The melanomatous low cracking level of Me 14932-LB37 may with the low expression of MAGE-6 gene or relevant with the low expression of HLA-B*3701 surface molecular.
Comprise for estimating whether MAGE-2 and MAGE-6 can improve the ratio that can treat the patient in the target antigen list of tumour-specific immunotherapy, to have analyzed MAGE-1,2 in the fresh tumor sample of various types of organizations, 3 and 6 expression.Do not analyze melanoma because different MAGE expression of gene clearly be associated (Dalerba, P., etc., Int.J.Cancer, 77:200-204,1998).The result shows that 12% ovarian cancer and 5% colorectal carcinoma and mammary cancer are expressed MAGE-2 and/or MAGE-6, and lacks MAGE-1 and MAGE-3 (table).On the other hand, these four genes coexpression always in the bladder cancer of all researchs and the lung cancer.
In a word, the data of report show that MAGE-2 and MAGE-6 can be included in the possible target antigen list of tumour-specific immunotherapy in this research, and having improved can be from the benefited patient's quantity of this treatment.
