パ性白血病の治療に著効を示すことが明らかになった。
この理由は次のように説明されている。[0003] In recent years, it has become clear that asparaginase derived from guinea pig serum and asparaginase produced by microorganisms such as Esserichia, Serratia, and Erwinia are highly effective in treating acute lymphocytic leukemia. The reason for this is explained as follows.

ができるということである。[0004] That is, acute lymphocytic leukemia cells are
- Asparagine is one of the essential nutritional sources, but as they lack asparagine synthetase, they cannot synthesize L-asparagine, so they cannot grow under conditions where L-asparagine is insufficient or absent. It dies out. On the other hand, L-asparagine is not essential for the survival and proliferation of normal cells. Therefore, by hydrolyzing L-asparagine with asparaginase, only the leukemia cells can be selectively killed.

れている(天木一太:急性白血病の治療、臨床血液,2
5, 447 〜459, (1984) )。[0005] There have been many reports on the antitumor effect of asparaginase both in vivo and in vitro (Ichita Amaki: Treatment of Acute Leukemia, Clinical Blood, 2
5, 447-459, (1984)).

Asparaginase, which is commercially available as a pharmaceutical, is derived from microorganisms. Therefore, it is presumed that there are some differences in the amino acid sequence from those derived from humans, and it is not immunologically preferable to administer this to the human body.

らの理由により、微生物由来のアスパラギナーゼによる
治療は、著しく制限されているのが現状である。That is, when asparaginase derived from microorganisms is administered to the human body, the production of antibodies against the asparaginase may be induced, resulting in immediate allergic symptoms such as rash and chills. In particular, if IgE antibodies are produced, long-term administration is not possible because there is a high possibility that dangerous side effects such as systemic anaphylactic shock will occur. For these reasons, treatment with asparaginase derived from microorganisms is currently extremely limited.

A method has been reported (Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 119082/1982) in which the antigen-determining site on the surface of the derived asparaginase molecule is chemically modified with polyethylene glycol to reduce antigenicity. However, in the former case, it is difficult to continuously obtain fresh human urine on an industrial scale, and in the latter case, although the antigenicity has almost disappeared, the residual activity is only about 10%, and the antitumor activity is low.

These cells adhere to and proliferate in small round or spindle-shaped petri dishes, but they often tend to clump together and form clusters of cells like clusters of grapes. In addition, these cells do not exhibit a cobblestone-like arrangement, but instead spread as cancer cells fall off singly or in groups of several cells from a cell mass at the center of the colony. For this reason, there are no clear boundaries around the colony. Cultured cells have large nuclei and distinct nucleoli, and are relatively lacking in cell bodies (Haruto Hojo: Niigata Medical Society Journal, No. 9)

L-aspartic acid is produced from asparagine by the action of asparaginase, and this L-aspartic acid is converted to malic acid via oxaloacetate by the enzymatic action of L-glutamate-oxaloacetate transaminase (GOT) and L-malate dehydrogenase. It is decomposed until At this time, by monitoring the amount of NADH (reduced form of the coenzyme NDA involved in redox reactions) consumed, it is possible to quantify the L-aspartic acid produced, and thereby the activity of asparaginase can be measured. can.
