Description

本発明は感作性物質のスクリーニング方法に関する。更に詳しくは本発明は、評価用のペプチドと被験物質との結合性を測定することにより当該被験物質の感作性を評価する感作性物質のスクリーニング方法に関する。   The present invention relates to a screening method for sensitizing substances. More specifically, the present invention relates to a method for screening a sensitizing substance, wherein the sensitizing property of the test substance is evaluated by measuring the binding property between the peptide for evaluation and the test substance.

医薬、農薬、化粧品等の商品の成分として、感作性物質、即ち生体にアレルギー反応等を誘発する化学物質が含有されないようにするため、それらの商品の成分について感作性の評価が求められる。   In order to prevent the inclusion of sensitizing substances, that is, chemical substances that induce allergic reactions in the living body, as components of products such as pharmaceuticals, agricultural chemicals and cosmetics, evaluation of sensitization is required for the components of those products. .

感作性を評価する有効な方法として、被験物質を実験動物に適用する in vivoの評価方法が考えられる。具体的に例示すれば、被験物質を実験動物の皮膚に適用し、適用部位の皮膚反応を観察するMaximization試験やBuehler試験、あるいは被験物質を実験動物の皮膚に適用してリンパ球の増殖を調べるLocal Lymph Node Assay等が挙げられる。しかし、これらの方法においては、実験動物の飼育・管理の手間を要する点に加え、実験動物への被験物質の適用作業が面倒であり、更に皮膚観察あるいは血液検査等の煩雑な作業も必要とし、多量の被験物質を準備する必要もある、等の種々の難点がある。   As an effective method for evaluating sensitization, an in vivo evaluation method in which a test substance is applied to an experimental animal can be considered. Specifically, the test substance is applied to the skin of a laboratory animal, and the Maximization test or Buehler test for observing the skin reaction at the application site, or the test substance is applied to the skin of a laboratory animal to examine lymphocyte proliferation. For example, Local Lymph Node Assay. However, in these methods, in addition to the time and labor required for breeding and managing laboratory animals, the work of applying the test substance to the laboratory animals is troublesome, and further complicated work such as skin observation or blood test is required. There are various difficulties such as the need to prepare a large amount of test substance.

このような点から、最終的に絞り込まれた被験物質については動物実験によるスクリーニングを行うとしても、商品開発の初期段階のように多数の被験物質を扱う場合には、少量の被験物質を用いて簡易・迅速に評価できるin vitroのスクリーニング方法が好ましい。もちろん、このような簡便法であっても、十分な信頼性が要求される。   From these points, even if screening of test substances that have been finally narrowed down is carried out by animal experiments, a small amount of test substances should be used when handling a large number of test substances as in the initial stage of product development. In vitro screening methods that allow simple and rapid evaluation are preferred. Of course, even such a simple method requires sufficient reliability.

代表的な in vitro スクリーニング方法として、感作性評価用のタンパク質又は低分子量ペプチドと被験物質との結合反応を測定することにより、被験物質の感作性をスクリーニングする方法が挙げられる。   As a typical in vitro screening method, there is a method of screening the sensitization property of a test substance by measuring a binding reaction between a test substance and a protein or low molecular weight peptide for sensitization evaluation.

特開2003−014761号公報。 この特許文献1には、システインを含む評価用タンパク質(具体的にはグルタチオン)と被験物質を混合・反応させた混合液をHPLC(高速液体クロマトグラフィー)等で分析し、混合前のタンパク質溶液及び被験物質溶液からは検出されず反応後の混合液からのみ検出される成分(グルタチオンと被験物質の結合物)のピークを調べて、グルタチオンと被験物質との結合性を調べる方法が記載されている。JP2003-014761A. In this Patent Document 1, a liquid mixture obtained by mixing and reacting a protein for evaluation containing cysteine (specifically glutathione) and a test substance is analyzed by HPLC (high performance liquid chromatography) or the like, and a protein solution before mixing and Describes a method for examining the binding of glutathione to a test substance by examining the peak of a component (a conjugate of glutathione and the test substance) that is not detected from the test substance solution but only detected from the mixture after the reaction. .

特開2007−183208号公報。 この特許文献2には、「H-Phe-Thr-Leu-X-Phe-Arg-NH2(XはCys又はHis)」で示される評価用のアミロイドPヘキサマーと被験物質を混合・反応させ、続いて上記の「特許文献1」に記載の方法と類似のプロセスによりアミロイドPヘキサマーと被験物質との結合性を調べる方法が記載されている。JP2007-183208A. In this Patent Document 2, an amyloid P hexamer for evaluation represented by “H-Phe-Thr-Leu-X-Phe-Arg-NH2 (X is Cys or His)” and a test substance are mixed and reacted. In addition, a method for examining the binding property between amyloid P hexamer and a test substance by a process similar to the method described in the above-mentioned “Patent Document 1” is described.

ところで、特許文献1及び特許文献2に記載の方法では、いずれの実施例でも、評価用のタンパク質又は低分子量ペプチドを水又は水性緩衝液に溶解させ、一方では被験物質をメタノール、エタノール、アセトニトリル、アセトンといった有機溶剤に溶解させ、これらの溶解液を混和させた混和物中で両者を反応させている。そしてこれらの混和物における水又は水性緩衝液と有機溶剤との混和比率は、水又は水性緩衝液が過剰ないし大過剰である。   By the way, in the methods described in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2, in any of the Examples, the protein for evaluation or the low molecular weight peptide is dissolved in water or an aqueous buffer, while the test substance is methanol, ethanol, acetonitrile, Both are made to react in the mixture which melt | dissolved in organic solvents, such as acetone, and mixed these solution. The mixing ratio of water or aqueous buffer solution to organic solvent in these admixtures is excessive or large excess of water or aqueous buffer solution.

これに対して、例えば化粧品原料においては、親水性の物質から親油性の物質まで数多くの種類の成分が配合される。感作性物質としては、親水性及び親油性のものが知られているので、当然ながら親油性の成分も被験物質となり得る。   On the other hand, for example, in cosmetic raw materials, many types of ingredients are blended from hydrophilic substances to lipophilic substances. As sensitizing substances, hydrophilic and lipophilic substances are known, and naturally, lipophilic components can also serve as test substances.

しかし、特許文献1及び特許文献2に記載の方法のように、水又は水性緩衝液が過剰ないし大過剰である混和液中では、親油性の被験物質の感作性を正しく評価できない恐れがある。本願発明者が実験的に確認したところ、後述の実施例欄における比較例として示すように、感作性が陽性であることが既知の親油性被験物質について、水又は水性緩衝液が過剰ないし大過剰である混和液中で反応させたところ、既知の情報とは一致しない評価結果が得られている。   However, as in the methods described in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2, there is a possibility that the sensitization property of a lipophilic test substance cannot be correctly evaluated in a mixed solution in which water or an aqueous buffer is excessive or large excess. . As a result of experimental confirmation by the inventors of the present application, as shown as a comparative example in the Examples section described below, an excess or large amount of water or aqueous buffer solution is used for a lipophilic test substance known to be positive for sensitization. When the reaction is carried out in an excessive mixture, evaluation results that do not match the known information are obtained.

そこで本発明は、評価用ペプチドと被験物質との結合性を測定して被験物質の感作性を評価する感作性物質のスクリーニング方法において、被験物質の親水性/親油性の別に関わらず正確な評価が得られるようにすることを、解決すべき技術的課題とする。   Therefore, the present invention provides a screening method for a sensitizing substance that evaluates the sensitization property of a test substance by measuring the binding property between the evaluation peptide and the test substance, regardless of whether the test substance is hydrophilic or lipophilic. The technical problem to be solved is to ensure that a good evaluation is obtained.

本願発明者は、上記課題の解決手段を追求する過程で、次の第1〜第2の点に着眼するに至り、これらの着眼点に基づく試行錯誤の結果、本発明を完成した。   The inventor of the present application came to focus on the following first and second points in the process of pursuing the means for solving the above problems, and completed the present invention as a result of trial and error based on these points of focus.

第1の着眼点:従来のin vitroスクリーニング法では、有機溶剤は単に被験物質を予備的に溶解させる目的で用いているに過ぎず、評価用のタンパク質又はペプチドと被験物質との反応は実質的に水性溶媒中で行っている。   First point: In the conventional in vitro screening method, the organic solvent is merely used for the purpose of preliminarily dissolving the test substance, and the reaction between the test protein or peptide and the test substance is substantial. In an aqueous solvent.

第2の着眼点:評価用ペプチドと被験物質との反応を従来のように実質的な水性溶媒中で行う場合と比較して、実質的な有機溶媒中で行う場合、ペプチドと被験物質の両成分の反応挙動が変わる可能性がある。又、そのことが親水性の被験物質及び親油性の被験物質の感作性の評価に意外な好影響をもたらすかも知れない。   Second point of focus: When the reaction between the peptide for evaluation and the test substance is carried out in a substantial organic solvent as compared with the conventional case, both the peptide and the test substance are reacted. The reaction behavior of the components may change. It may also have a surprisingly positive effect on the assessment of sensitization of hydrophilic and lipophilic test substances.

(3) H-Phe-Thr-Leu-Lys-Phe-Arg-NH 2
(Fifth invention)
The configuration of the fifth invention of the present application for solving the above problem is a method for screening a sensitizing substance, wherein the test substance according to any one of the first to fourth inventions is a lipophilic substance.

上記の第5発明において「親油性物質」とは、水に溶けにくい物質を指し、詳しくはオクタノール/水分配係数(logKO/W)が1以上、好ましくは2以上の物質をいう。 In the above fifth invention, the “lipophilic substance” refers to a substance that is hardly soluble in water, and specifically refers to a substance having an octanol / water partition coefficient (log K 2 O / W 2 ) of 1 or more, preferably 2 or more.

本願発明者は、感作性物質と特異的に結合する性質が知られており、あるいはそのような性質を自ら見出した低分子量ペプチドを評価用に用いるという前提のもとに、評価用ペプチドと被験物質の反応挙動が反応溶媒(結合反応の環境)によって影響される可能性を考慮しつつ、反応溶媒を種々に変更して検討した結果、第1発明を完成するに至った。   The inventor of the present application is known to have a property of specifically binding to a sensitizing substance, or on the premise that a low molecular weight peptide that has found such a property is used for evaluation, Considering the possibility that the reaction behavior of the test substance is affected by the reaction solvent (binding reaction environment), the first invention was completed as a result of various changes in the reaction solvent.

第1発明のように、有機溶剤を50質量%以上含有する反応溶媒中で評価用ペプチドと被験物質を反応させると、被験物質の親水性/親油性の別あるいはそれらの程度に関わらず、感作性の高い被験物質ほど評価用ペプチドと結合し易いことが分かった。従って、被験物質が親水性の物質であっても、親油性の物質であっても、その感作性の評価を通じて、感作性物質を十分な信頼性のもとにスクリーニングすることができる。しかもこの方法は、少量の被験物質を用いて簡易・迅速にスクリーニングすることができるin vitro スクリーニング方法である。   As in the first invention, when the evaluation peptide and the test substance are reacted in a reaction solvent containing 50% by mass or more of an organic solvent, the sensitivity is increased regardless of the hydrophilicity / lipophilicity of the test substance or their degree. It was found that the test substance with higher productivity was more likely to bind to the evaluation peptide. Therefore, regardless of whether the test substance is a hydrophilic substance or a lipophilic substance, the sensitizing substance can be screened with sufficient reliability through evaluation of the sensitization. Moreover, this method is an in vitro screening method that allows simple and rapid screening using a small amount of test substance.

反応溶媒が水や緩衝液(水溶液)である場合、あるいは反応溶媒が有機溶剤を含有してもその含有量が50質量%未満である場合は、被験物質、特に親油性の被験物質の感作性を正しく評価できない場合がある。   When the reaction solvent is water or a buffer solution (aqueous solution), or when the reaction solvent contains an organic solvent and its content is less than 50% by mass, sensitization of the test substance, particularly a lipophilic test substance Sexuality may not be evaluated correctly.

第2発明によれば、本発明の反応ステップで用いるに特に適した有機溶剤が提供される。又、反応ステップにおける評価用ペプチドと被験物質の反応溶媒としては、第3発明に規定するように、有機溶剤を60質量%以上含有するものが特に好ましい。   According to the second invention, an organic solvent particularly suitable for use in the reaction step of the present invention is provided. Further, as the reaction solvent for the peptide for evaluation and the test substance in the reaction step, those containing 60% by mass or more of an organic solvent are particularly preferable as defined in the third invention.

評価用ペプチドは、感作性物質と特異的に結合する性質を持ち、重合度が3〜10の範囲内の低分子量ペプチドである限りにおいて限定されないが、第4発明の(1)〜(3)に規定するペプチドが特に好ましい。これらのペプチドの内、(1)、(2)に規定するものは評価用ペプチドとして公知であるが、(3)に規定するものは、評価用ペプチドとして利用できることを本願発明者が新たに見出したペプチドである。   The evaluation peptide is not limited as long as it is a low molecular weight peptide having a property of specifically binding to a sensitizing substance and having a polymerization degree in the range of 3 to 10, but the (1) to (3) of the fourth invention. The peptide defined in) is particularly preferred. Among these peptides, those defined in (1) and (2) are known as evaluation peptides, but the present inventor newly found that those defined in (3) can be used as evaluation peptides. Peptide.

本発明に係る感作性物質のスクリーニング方法は、被験物質が親水性物質であっても有効に適用できるが、第5発明に規定するように、被験物質が親油性物質である場合に特に好ましく適用される。   The screening method for a sensitizing substance according to the present invention can be effectively applied even if the test substance is a hydrophilic substance, but is particularly preferable when the test substance is a lipophilic substance as defined in the fifth invention.

In the present invention, both a hydrophilic substance and a lipophilic substance can be screened as test substances. In particular, lipophilic substances are suitable for screening. The concentration of the peptide for evaluation and the test substance in the reaction solvent in the reaction step is not limited, but the peptide for evaluation is dissolved to have a concentration of, for example, about 0.01 μM to 1 M, usually about 10 μM to 100 mM. It is preferable. About a test substance, it is preferable to melt | dissolve, for example so that it may become a density | concentration of about 0.01 micromol-1M, normally about 1 mM-500 mM.

反応溶媒中での被験物質と評価用ペプチドの混合比は限定されないが、反応を確実に進行させる必要があり、被験物質:評価用ペプチドのモル比は1:1〜1000:1程度、特に10:1〜200:1程度とすることが好ましい。   The mixing ratio of the test substance and the evaluation peptide in the reaction solvent is not limited, but it is necessary to allow the reaction to proceed reliably.

〔評価ステップ〕
評価ステップでは、前記反応ステップにおける評価用ペプチドと被験物質との結合性を測定して、被験物質の感作性を評価する。この目的を十分な信頼性のもとに達成できる限りにおいて評価ステップの具体的手法は限定されないが、以下の代表的手法を例示できる。
[Evaluation step]
In the evaluation step, the binding property between the evaluation peptide and the test substance in the reaction step is measured to evaluate the sensitization property of the test substance. The specific method of the evaluation step is not limited as long as this object can be achieved with sufficient reliability, but the following representative methods can be exemplified.

第1の手法は、特許文献1、2に記載の方法に準ずるもので、評価用ペプチドと被験物質を混合・反応させた反応液をHPLC(高速液体クロマトグラフィー)等で分析し、混合前の評価用ペプチド溶液及び被験物質溶液からは検出されず反応液からのみ検出される成分(評価用ペプチドと被験物質の結合物)のピークを調べて両者の結合性を調べる方法であって、特定のピークの有無により判定をするものである。   The first method is based on the method described in Patent Documents 1 and 2, and the reaction solution obtained by mixing and reacting the evaluation peptide and the test substance is analyzed by HPLC (high performance liquid chromatography) or the like, and before mixing. A method of investigating the peak of a component (a conjugate of an evaluation peptide and a test substance) that is not detected from an evaluation peptide solution and a test substance solution but only detected from a reaction solution, Judgment is based on the presence or absence of a peak.

第2の、特に好ましい手法は、反応ステップにおいて評価用ペプチドに対して過剰量の被験物質を反応させることを前提として、評価ステップにおいてはHPLC等を利用して評価用ペプチドの残存量を測定し、減少したペプチドは被験物質との結合により消費されたものと見做して、評価用ペプチドと被験物質との結合率を求める、という方法であって、例えばG. Frank Gerberick et al., Toxicological Sciences 81,
332-343 (2004)に記載された方法が例示される。
A second and particularly preferable method is based on the premise that an excessive amount of a test substance is reacted with the evaluation peptide in the reaction step, and the residual amount of the evaluation peptide is measured using HPLC or the like in the evaluation step. In this method, it is assumed that the reduced peptide is consumed by the binding to the test substance, and the binding rate between the evaluation peptide and the test substance is obtained, for example, G. Frank Gerberick et al., Toxicological Sciences 81,
The method described in 332-343 (2004) is illustrated.

以上の第1、第2の手法において、評価用ペプチドと被験物質を反応させた反応液の分析方法としては、上記HPLCの他に、ガスクロマトグラフィー(GC)、薄層クロマトグラフィー(TLC)、質量分析(MS)等をあげることができ、HPLC、GC、又はTLCのいずれかとMSとを組み合わせた分析方法(LC−MS,GC−MS,TLC−MS)も用いることもできる。この方法によれば、試料に評価用ペプチドと被験物質との複数種類の結合物が含まれていても、それらを個々に分離し、それぞれについて分析することができる。   In the first and second methods described above, as a method for analyzing the reaction solution obtained by reacting the evaluation peptide and the test substance, in addition to the HPLC, gas chromatography (GC), thin layer chromatography (TLC), Mass spectrometry (MS) etc. can be mentioned, The analysis method (LC-MS, GC-MS, TLC-MS) which combined MS with either HPLC, GC, or TLC can also be used. According to this method, even if the sample contains a plurality of types of conjugates of the evaluation peptide and the test substance, they can be individually separated and analyzed.

上記のHPLCに用いることのできるクロマトグラフ手法としては、逆相、順相、イオン交換などを挙げることができる。質量分析で利用できるイオン化法として、例えば、マトリクス支援レーザーイオン化(MALDI)法、エレクトロスプレーイオン化(ESI)法、大気圧化学イオン化(APCI)法、電子衝撃イオン化(EI)法、高速原子衝撃イオン化(FAB)法等が挙げられる。   Examples of chromatographic techniques that can be used for the above HPLC include reverse phase, normal phase, and ion exchange. Examples of ionization methods that can be used in mass spectrometry include matrix-assisted laser ionization (MALDI), electrospray ionization (ESI), atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI), electron impact ionization (EI), and fast atom bombardment ionization ( FAB) method and the like.
