Description

Technical Field [0001] The present invention relates to a dendritic cell for immune tolerance prepared using minocycline and a method for producing the dendritic cell.

The present invention relates to a dendritic cell having immunostimulatory activity using minocycline, a method for producing the dendritic cell, and a use of the dendritic cell for immune tolerance.

Dendritic cells are a type of specialized antigen presenting cells that mainly perform antigen presenting function on T cells, and they are in the form of branches in lymphatic, spleen, thymus, subcutaneous or intercellular spaces of various tissues. Dendritic cells play an important role in T cell activation by absorbing antigen into the cell and presenting various antigenic samples to T cells along with MHC class I complex or MHC class II complex.

In addition, dendritic cells are differentiated into different maturity levels depending on the type of environmental signals present in the environment, and are present as immature, semi-mature or mature dendritic cells. Immature dendritic cells are found in the early maturation stage, Immature dendritic cells do not activate T cells in contact with T cells because of low levels of expressed inflammatory cytokines, although they perform a primary function of collecting and removing debris. On the other hand, mature dendritic cells have the ability to activate immune responses by activating primitive T cells. In order for immature dendritic cells to differentiate into mature dendritic cells, the toll-like receptors must be activated by exposure to a number of specific signals, thereby upregulating many co-stimulatory molecules and pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-12 From the tissue to the lymph nodes, and finger-shaped protrusions appear, which are morphological features of mature dendritic cells.

In addition, immature dendritic cells can differentiate into semi-mature dendritic cells if they are placed in different environmental conditions, for example, TNF-α released from cells during apoptosis may contribute to the differentiation into semi-mature dendritic cells do. Seminiferous dendritic cells lose some of the properties of immature dendritic cells and have some characteristics of the phenotype of mature dendritic cells.

On the other hand, diseases caused by immune hyperresponsiveness are increasing worldwide. However, the fundamental cause of the occurrence of these diseases has not been fully elucidated. As a method of treating diseases caused by an excessive immune response, immunosuppressive agents are administered alone or in combination to alleviate or reduce various symptoms caused by diseases . An immunosuppressive agent is one that is used to inhibit the immune hypersensitivity reaction. The immunosuppressive agent is used to reduce or block the ability of the host to make antibodies (humoral immune response) or cellular immune response to the action of the antigen Refers to various materials used. Such immunosuppressants can be used not only in organ transplantation fields but also in autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, and skin hypersensitivity reactions such as atopy and allergy. Good immunosuppressants should be able to control the imbalance of the immune response, ensure human safety, and have a low frequency of recurrence during long-term treatment (Wollenberg 2008).

However, many drugs such as cyclosporin A and FK506, which are currently used immunosuppressants, have a complicated chemical structure. Therefore, there is a risk that various side effects may be caused due to high cost in terms of raw material supply and demand. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a novel immunosuppressive agent having low toxicity and excellent immunity inducing effect.

In addition, the immune system controls a specific immune response to an autoantigen in a normal state, and also suppresses an immune response to an external antigen. For example, the immune system responds to a fetus of a pregnant woman and immunity against a microorganism in a chronic infection state Reaction. These phenomena are known to be induced by clonal deletion, clonal anergy, and active control by immunoregulatory T cells (Treg) as a mechanism by which antigen-specific immune tolerance can be induced, In addition, immunocompetent T lymphocytes have been shown to be involved in the transplantation of immune tolerance. In recent years, immune-regulatory T lymphocytes have been implicated in transplantation In addition to the immune response, autoimmunity, tumor immunity, and immune response, such as the immune response of almost all living organisms are important cells that are involved in the control of immune diseases are being studied for the treatment of immune diseases are increasingly being studied.

At this time, the present technology is studying a method of using dendritic cells as a cell therapy agent for effectively treating diseases caused by immunomodulation abnormalities, particularly excessive immune responses. When dendritic cells are obtained by treating minocycline, dendritic cells And thus it can be used as a therapeutic agent for various diseases such as autoimmune diseases or graft rejection diseases.

On the other hand, the dendritic cells prepared according to the present invention provide dendritic cells having immune tolerance activity that are not dendritic cells having such functions, and in particular, when cells are cultured with a medium composition supplemented with minocycline, immune tolerance- Cells. ≪ / RTI >

Accordingly, the present invention provides a medium composition for the production of dendritic cells for immunological tolerance, which comprises Granulocyte-macrophage stimulating factor (GM-CSF), IL-4 (interleukin-4) and minocycline as an active ingredient.

Minocycline, one of the active ingredients contained in the culture composition according to the present invention, is an antibiotic substance having a tetracycline nucleus and is known to exhibit broad spectrum and act on Ricetitia, any kind of viruses and amoebae. Also, it is known that minocycline is used for the treatment of acne and urethral infections. However, there is no known example used for manufacturing and culturing immune tolerant dendritic cells as in the present invention.

In the culture medium composition of the present invention, GM-CSF is contained at 10 to 50 ng / ml. It is preferable that IL-4 is contained at a concentration of 10 to 50 ng / ml and minocycline at 1 to 10 uM, and more preferably, the minocycline is contained at a concentration of 5 uM.

The method comprises administering 10-50 ng / ml GM-CSF. And culturing the bone marrow cells (bone marrow cells) for 3 to 8 days in a medium containing IL-4 at a concentration of 10 to 50 ng / ml and minocycline at a concentration of 1 to 10 uM. More specifically, As shown in FIG.

Furthermore, the dendritic cells of the immunostimulator produced by the method of the present invention have a reduced production of inflammatory cytokines, a decreased ability to induce alloantigen-specific T cell priming, maintain immature status, and inhibit MHC class II restricted external antigen There is a feature that presentation ability is reduced.

In addition, the dendritic dendritic cells for differentiation induced by the present invention are capable of activating immunoregulatory T cells (Treg).

Usually, it is a bio-defense system for various pathogens. T cells are one of the cell groups that plays a central role in the immune system. T cells are produced in the thymus of the human body, and undergo a series of differentiation processes, resulting in differentiation into T cells with inherent characteristics. The differentiated T cells are largely classified into type 1 (Th1) Auxiliary cells (Th2). Among these, Th1 cells are mainly involved in cell mediated immunity, Th2 cells are involved in humoral immunity, and in the immune system, these two cell populations maintain the balance of the immune system through mutual checks to prevent mutual activation with each other.

Therefore, most of the immune diseases are caused by the imbalance between these two immune cells. For example, when the activity of Th1 cells abnormally increases, an autoimmune disease may occur and the activity of Th2 cells abnormally increases It is known that immune diseases are caused by hypersensitivity reactions.

On the other hand, recent studies on the differentiation of Th1 cells have revealed the existence of a new group of immunoregulatory T cells (Tregs) capable of regulating the activity of Th1 cells, , Treg cells have the ability to control inflammatory response by inhibiting the function of abnormally activated immune cells. Thus, studies on treating immune diseases through the action of increasing the activity of Treg cells have been conducted, and Treg cells have been treated with Foxp3 There is a characteristic of expressing.

Therefore, the dendritic cells of the present invention having the above characteristics can be used as a therapeutic agent for treating and preventing diseases caused by an excessive immune response.

The diseases caused by the excessive immune reaction may be autoimmune diseases or graft-rejection diseases.

In the present invention, the term " autoimmune disease " means that when a problem occurs in inducing self-tolerance or maintaining self-tolerance, an immune response against self-antigen occurs, thereby attacking the self-organism. . In the present invention, the type of the autoimmune disease may be selected from the group consisting of rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, atopic dermatitis, autoimmune encephalomyelitis, multiple sclerosis, psoriasis, asthma and Crohn's disease .

In addition, the graft-wart disease may be a disease caused by rejection upon cell, tissue or organ transplantation.

Successful organ transplants must overcome the immune rejection response of the recipient cells and organs. The main mediator of transplantation immune rejection is T cell, which is expressed in the graft. Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is recognized by T cell receptor (T cell receptor) A reaction occurs. Therefore, in order to suppress such T-cell mediated immune response in order to reduce such graft rejection response, the immune tolerance dendritic cells obtained in the present invention can inhibit such T cell-mediated immune response.

To determine if minocycline treatment can increase the number of dendritic cells derived from myeloid leukemia cells, the present inventors examined whether marrow cells were treated with GM-CSF (40 ng / ml) and IL-4 (40 ng / ml) (Mino-DCs) and non-minocycline (Ctrl-DCs) were cultured for 7 days.

As a result, when the bone marrow cells were cultured under the conditions of GM-CSF and IL-4, the number of dendritic cells was increased by about 65.3% (see FIG. 1A) in the group to which minocycline was added compared to the group in which minocycline was not added. In addition, minocycline showed a 60.5% increase in the number of dendritic cells compared to the control group even at low concentrations of GM-CSF (20 ng / ml) and IL-4 (20 ng / ml). In addition, in the cell surface analysis using flow cytometry, there was almost no difference in CD11c expression between both Mino-DC and Ctrl-DC (see FIG. 1B). Therefore, the present inventors used minocycline at a concentration of 5 μM, GM-CSF at 40 ng / mL and IL- at a concentration of 40 ng / mL.

Minocycline  Treated Dendritic Maturity  Delay characterization

The following experiment was conducted to determine whether the dendritic cells obtained by culturing with the minocycline-treated culture medium had a characteristic that the maturation of the cells was delayed or maintained in an immature state.

DCs (dendritic cells produced by treatment with minocycline) and immature Ctrl-DCs (dendritic cells produced without minocycline treatment) were subjected to minocycline treatment and control dendritic cells were treated with LPS (100 (50 ng / mL) or TNF-α (50 ng / mL) for 24 h to induce cell maturation.

As a result, Mino-DC showed low levels of MHC class II (I-Ab), CD54, CD80, and CD86 compared to control-DC (see FIG. 2A) DCs were decreased compared with DCs (see Figs. 2A and B). In addition, even when minocycline was added to the immature dendritic cells obtained without minocycline, the cell phenotype due to IFN-y / TNF-a did not change significantly (see Fig. 2C).

Minocycline  The obtained Dendritic MHC  class II limited Outer antigen presentation ability  Confirm reduction

The function of dendritic cells as antigen presenting cells was analyzed using microspheres containing OVA. After culturing the microspheres for 2 hours, the cells were fixed and the amount of IL-2 secreted by DOBW, an OVA-specific CD4 + T hybrid cell, was measured to determine the expression level of OVA peptide-class II MHC complex on the surface of dendritic cells Respectively.

As a result, dendritic cells produced by treatment with minocycline showed lower IL-2 production by CD4 + T cells than control (minocycline-untreated dendritic cells), suggesting that Mino-DC produced by treatment with minocycline has MHC class II restricted It was confirmed that the expression of the foreign antigen was markedly decreased as compared with that of the control dendritic cells (see FIG. 3A). On the other hand, it was found that this difference in external antigen presenting ability was not related to the deficiency of the phagocytosis of Mino-DC, which showed little difference in the number of cell populations in both cell groups (see FIG. 3B).

Minocycline  The obtained Dendritic  Identification of inflammatory cytokine production degradation

The dendritic cells (Mino-DC) obtained by treating minocycline and the dendritic cells (Ctrl-DC) obtained without treatment of minocycline were compared and analyzed for the degree of inflammatory cytokine production. IL-1, IL-12, IL-6 and TNF-a in inflammatory cytokines.

As a result, it was found that Mino-DC significantly reduced IL-12, IL-1, IL-6, and TNF-α secretion as proinflammatory cytokines in cell maturation by LPS treatment compared with control-DC 4A), Due to OVA-microsphere phagocytosis In cytokine production, it was also found that the production of inflammatory cytokines was reduced compared to Ctrl-DC not treated with Mino-DC minocycline (see FIG. 4B).

Therefore, the inventors of the present invention have found that dendritic cells obtained by producing (producing) minocycline are excellent in the effect of inhibiting the production of inflammatory cytokines, and can inhibit and reduce inflammatory diseases.

Minocycline  The obtained Dendritic allogenic  Confirm reduction of T cell stimulation power

The present inventors confirmed the immune tolerance of Mino-DC through mixed lymphocyte reaction. First, Mino-DCs treated with Ctrl-DC and minocycline produced by C57BL / 6 marrow were stimulated with LPS to induce maturation of the cells, followed by mixed culture with BALB / C-derived CD4 + T cells. -DC and allogenic T cells were most proliferated when they were reacted at a ratio of 1:40.

 As a result, the allostimulatory activity of Mino-DC was significantly reduced compared to that of Ctrl-DC (see FIG. 5A). Further, the present inventors confirmed the effect of Mino-DC on allogenic T cells priming using Allogenic mice, C57BL / 6-derived Mino-DCs stimulated with LPS were injected into BALB / c mice. Ten days later, T cells were isolated from the spleen and mixed with normal C57BL / 6-derived dendritic cells for re-stimulation.

As a result, it was found that the ability of Mino-DC to induce alloantigen-specific T cells priming in allogenic mice was decreased (see FIG. 5B).

From these results, the inventors of the present invention confirmed that dendritic cells having immune tolerance activity can be obtained when cells are cultured by addition of minocycline in addition to GM-CSF and IL-4 to the bone marrow cell culture medium. The number of dendritic cells can be increased to obtain a large amount of the dendritic cells, and furthermore, it has been found that such immune tolerance dendritic cells can be used for the treatment of diseases caused by an excessive immune response, for example, autoimmune diseases or graft rejection diseases I could.
