Abstract
Description
본 발명은 TLR4(Toll-like receptor 4) 신호전달 경로를 억제하는 펩타이드에 관한 것으로, 더욱 상세하게는 TLR4의 TIR 도메인에 결합하여 전염증성 사이토카인의 분비를 억제하고, NF-κB와 MAPKs의 활성화를 억제하는 펩타이드, 상기 펩타이드에 세포 투과성 펩타이드가 결합된 융합 펩타이드, 상기 펩타이드 또는 융합 펩타이드를 포함하는 TLR4 길항제 및 상기 펩타이드 또는 융합 펩타이드를 포함하는 자가면역 질환 또는 염증성 질환의 예방 또는 치료용 조성물에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a peptide that inhibits the TLR4 (Toll-like receptor 4) signaling pathway, and more specifically, binds to the TIR domain of TLR4, inhibits the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines, and activates NF-κB and MAPKs A peptide for inhibiting, a fusion peptide having a cell permeable peptide bound to the peptide, a TLR4 antagonist comprising the peptide or fusion peptide, and a composition for preventing or treating an autoimmune disease or inflammatory disease comprising the peptide or fusion peptide will be.
톨-유사 수용체(Toll-like receptors; TLRs)는 외인성 병원균-연관 분자 패턴(pathogen-associated molecular pattern, PAMP) 및/또는 내인성 손상-연관 분자 패턴(damage-associated molecular patterns)을 인식하는 막-결합 패턴 인식 수용체(membrane-bound pattern recognition receptors)다. 병원균-연관 분자 패턴 또는 손상-연관 분자 패턴을 인식하면, TLR은 nuclear factor kappa light-chain enhancer of activated B cells(NF-κB) 또는 interferon-regulatory factors(IRFs)의 활성화에 이르는 이합체화-유도 복합체 신호전달 캐스케이드를 유발한다(Kawai T & Akira S (2010) Nature immunology 11(5):373-384). 이러한 전사 인자(transcription factors)는 자발적으로 핵으로 이동하고, 전염증성 사이토카인(인터루킨-6(IL-6), IL-1β 및 IL-10), 종양 괴사 인자 α(tumor necrosis factor α; TNF-α) 및 항바이러스 인터페론(type I IFNs)의 발현에 관여한다(O'Neill LA & Bowie AG (2007) Nature reviews . Immunology 7(5):353-364). Myeloid differentiation primary response 88(MyD88)은 TLR3을 제외한 활성화된 TLR에 모집되는 최초의 어댑터로, 분자 간 TIR(Toll/interleukin-1 receptor) 도메인 상호 작용을 통해 TIR domain-containing adapter-inducing interferon β(TRIF)를 모집한다(Gay NJ, Symmons MF, Gangloff M, & Bryant CE (2014) Nature reviews. Immunology 14(8):546-558). MyD88-의존적 경로에서, interleukin receptor-associated kinase 4(IRAK4)를 모집하고, IRAK1 또는 IRAK2를 모집하여 'myddosome'으로 불리는 초분자 어셈블리가 완성되며(Lin SC, Lo YC, & Wu H (2010) Nature 465(7300):885-890), 이는 이후의 신호전달에 필수적이다. TLR4는 lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-유도 TRIF-의존적 신호전달을 유발할 수 있어, TLR3의 IFNs 생성을 보완한다. 따라서 TLR4의 활성화는 상당량의 케모카인, 인터페론 및 인터루킨을 생성한다(이를 cytokine storm이라 한다). 이 현상은 패혈증(sepsis)이라 불리는 치명적인 자가염증(autoinflammatory) 상태를 유발하기도 한다.Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are membrane-bound that recognize exogenous pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and/or endogenous damage-associated molecular patterns. These are membrane-bound pattern recognition receptors. Recognizing pathogen-associated molecular patterns or damage-associated molecular patterns, TLRs are dimerization-induced complexes leading to activation of nuclear factor kappa light-chain enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) or interferon-regulatory factors (IRFs). Causes signaling cascade (Kawai T & Akira S (2010) Nature immunology 11(5):373-384). These transcription factors spontaneously migrate to the nucleus, pro-inflammatory cytokines (interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-1β and IL-10), tumor necrosis factor α; TNF- α) and antiviral interferon (type I IFNs) (O'Neill LA & Bowie AG (2007) Nature reviews . Immunology 7(5):353-364). Myeloid differentiation primary response 88 (MyD88) is the first adapter recruited to activated TLRs other than TLR3, and TIR domain-containing adapter-inducing interferon β (TRIF) through intermolecular TIR (Toll/interleukin-1 receptor) domain interaction ) (Gay NJ, Symmons MF, Gangloff M, & Bryant CE (2014) Nature reviews. Immunology 14(8):546-558). In the MyD88-dependent pathway, interleukin receptor-associated kinase 4 (IRAK4) is recruited, and IRAK1 or IRAK2 is recruited to complete a supramolecular assembly called'myddosome' (Lin SC, Lo YC, & Wu H (2010) Nature 465 (7300):885-890), which is essential for subsequent signaling. TLR4 can induce lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced TRIF-dependent signaling, compensating for the production of TLR3 IFNs. Thus, activation of TLR4 produces significant amounts of chemokines, interferons and interleukins (this is called a cytokine storm). This phenomenon can also lead to a fatal autoinflammatory condition called sepsis.
분비된 사이토카인과 인터페론이 특정 감염에 대한 특이적 항체 생산을 위한 적응 면역계의 구성 요소를 활성화시키기 때문에, 내재 면역의 정상적인 활성화의 본질은 방어하는 데 있다(Iwasaki A & Medzhitov R (2015) Nature immunology 16(4):343-353). 그럼에도 불구하고, 내재 면역의 과다 활성화 또는 조절 장애는 종종 생존에 해로울 수 있다. 자가-항원에 반응하여 발현된 자가 항체(autoantibodies)로 인하여, 전신홍반루푸스(systemic lupus erythematosus; SLE)(Wu YW, Tang W, & Zuo JP (2015) Acta pharmacologica Sinica 36(12):1395-1407), 류마티스 관절염(rheumatoid arthritis; RA)(Wang Y, et al . (2017) Pediatric rheumatology online journal 15(1):12), 건선 관절염(psoriatic arthritis; SA)(Jimenez-Dalmaroni MJ, Gerswhin ME, & Adamopoulos IE (2016) Autoimmunity reviews 15(1):1-8), 죽상동맥경화증(atherosclerosis(Feldman N, Rotter-Maskowitz A, & Okun E (2015) Ageing research reviews 24(Pt A):29-39), 패혈증(sepsis)(Liew FY, Xu D, Brint EK, & O'Neill LA (2005) Nature reviews . Immunology 5(6):446-458) 등을 비롯한 자가면역 질환 및 염증성 질환으로 이어진다. 따라서, 조절되지 않은 TLRs는 자가면역 질환 및 염증성 질환의 치료를 위한 바람직한 약물 표적으로 인식된다(O'Neill LA (2003) Current opinion in pharmacology 3(4):396-403).Since secreted cytokines and interferons activate the components of the adaptive immune system for the production of specific antibodies against specific infections, the nature of normal activation of intrinsic immunity lies in defense (Iwasaki A & Medzhitov R (2015)Nature immunology 16(4):343-353). Nevertheless, overactivation or dysregulation of intrinsic immunity can often be detrimental to survival. Due to autoantibodies expressed in response to auto-antigens, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) (Wu YW, Tang W, & Zuo JP (2015)Acta pharmacologica Sinica 36(12):1395-1407), rheumatoid arthritis (RA) (Wang Y, et al . (2017)Pediatric rheumatology online journal 15(1):12), psoriatic arthritis (SA) (Jimenez-Dalmaroni MJ, Gerswhin ME, & Adamopoulos IE (2016)Autoimmunity reviews 15(1):1-8), atherosclerosis (Feldman N, Rotter-Maskowitz A, & Okun E (2015)Ageing research reviews 24(Pt A):29-39), sepsis (Liew FY, Xu D, Brint EK, & O'Neill LA (2005)Nature reviews . Immunology 5(6):446-458) and the like, leading to autoimmune diseases and inflammatory diseases. Thus, unregulated TLRs are recognized as desirable drug targets for the treatment of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases (O'Neill LA (2003)Current opinion in pharmacology 3(4):396-403).
최근 몇 년간, 세포외 도메인뿐만 아니라 TIR 도메인을 표적으로 하여 세포 표면-발현 TLR(TLR2 및 TLR4)을 억제하는 펩타이드 기반의 전임상 물질에 대한 많은 진보가 이루어졌다(Piao W, et al . (2015) Cell reports 11(12):1941-1952).In recent years, many advances have been made in peptide-based preclinical agents that target cell surface-expressing TLRs (TLR2 and TLR4) by targeting TIR domains as well as extracellular domains (Piao W , et. al . (2015) Cell reports 11(12):1941-1952).
TIRAP(TIR domain adaptor protein)은 신호 변환 도중 활성화된 TLR2 및/또는 TLR4와 MyD88 사이의 가교 역할을 하는 고유한 어댑터다(Bonham KS, et al . (2014) Cell 156(4):705-716). TIRAP은 phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate-binding domain을 통해 phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate 분자에 고정되기 때문에 세포질 막과 지속적으로 결합한다(Kagan JC & Medzhitov R (2006) Cell 125(5):943-955). 그럼에도 불구하고, TIRAP의 TIR 도메인은 TLR2 또는 TLR4의 TIR 도메인에 MyD88의 모집을 용이하게 하기 위해 용매에 노출된다(Valkov E, et al . (2011) Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America 108(36):14879-14884). TLR2와 TLR4의 하류 신호전달에서의 TIRAP의 필수적인 역할은 이전에 확인되었다(Zhao X, et al . (2017) Scientific reports 7:43043).TIRAP (TIR domain adapter protein) is a unique adapter that acts as a bridge between TLR2 and/or TLR4 and MyD88 activated during signal transduction (Bonham KS , et. al . (2014) Cell 156(4):705-716). Since TIRAP is fixed to the

톨-유사 수용체(Toll-like receptors; TLRs)의 조절되지 않은 반응은 다양한 염증성 질환 및 자가면역 질환의 발병과 광범위하게 연관되어 있다. 이러한 이유로 TLR은 면역 관련 질환을 치료하기 위한 약물 타겟 중 하나에 해당한다. 최근 TLR 구조 생물학 및 신호전달 경로에 대한 인식이 증가함에 따라 저분자 유기 화합물에서 거대한 폴리펩타이드 및 핵산 매개체에 이르기까지 수많은 치료제가 개발되었으며, 펩타이드는 더 나은 효능, 선택성, 안전성 및 효능을 가지며, 미래의 치료 전략을 위한 매력적인 후보가 될 수 있다(Bovijn C, et al . (2013) The Journal of biological chemistry 288(17):12054-12066).The unregulated response of Toll-like receptors (TLLs) is extensively associated with the development of various inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. For this reason, TLR is one of the drug targets for treating immune-related diseases. In recent years, with increasing awareness of TLR structural biology and signaling pathways, numerous therapeutic agents have been developed, ranging from low molecular organic compounds to giant polypeptide and nucleic acid mediators, and peptides have better efficacy, selectivity, safety and efficacy, and in the future It can be an attractive candidate for treatment strategies (Bovijn C , et. al . (2013) The Journal of biological chemistry 288(17):12054-12066).
본 발명자들은 TIRAP(TIR domain adaptor protein)의 코어 β-sheet에서 유래한 TIP3(TLR-inhibitory peptide 3)를 합성하였다. TIP3는 MyD88-의존적 경로 및 TRIF-의존적 경로 모두를 통해 실질적으로 TLR4-매개 사이토카인 생산을 차단한다. TLR3-매개 신호전달에 대하여 억제 효과가 관찰되었고, 다른 TLR에서도 부분적으로 관찰되었다. 관절염 마우스 모델에서 염증 반응을 성공적으로 경감시키는 것을 확인하였으며, 건선 및 전신홍반루푸스를 개선시키는 in vivo 치료 효과를 관찰하였다. 이러한 결과는, TIP3가 TLR-매개 질환에 대한 효과적인 치료제 후보 물질이 될 수 있음을 시사한다.The present inventors synthesized TIP3 (TLR-inhibitory peptide 3) derived from the core β-sheet of TIRAP (TIR domain adaptor protein). TIP3 substantially blocks TLR4-mediated cytokine production through both the MyD88-dependent and TRIF-dependent pathways. An inhibitory effect was observed on TLR3-mediated signaling, and was partially observed on other TLRs. It has been found that the arthritis mouse model successfully relieves the inflammatory response and improves psoriasis and systemic lupus erythematosus in In vivo treatment effects were observed. These results suggest that TIP3 can be an effective therapeutic candidate for TLR-mediated diseases.
리간드-유도 homo- 및 heterotypic TIR-TIR 도메인 상호작용은 TLR 신호전달 개시에 필수 불가결하다(Bovijn C, et al . (2013) The Journal of biological chemistry 288(17):12054-12066). 이러한 고도로 순응하는 어댑터 분자의 집합은 관련 신호의 개시에 매우 중요하며, 이러한 인터페이스의 차단은 TLR 신호전달을 막을 수 있다. 신호전달에 관여하는 어댑터 단백질의 일시적인 상호작용을 타겟하는 것은 어렵지만, 화학량론적 방식으로 여러 경로에서 일부 어댑터 분자가 중요하게 작용하기 때문에 여러 이점을 제공한다. 세포질 단백질 또는 도메인을 타겟함으로써, 작용제(agonist) 기능의 길항작용(antagonism)과는 대조적으로 신호전달 억제로부터 비교적 높은 효능 및 더 넓은 특이성을 예상할 수 있다.Ligand-induced homo- and heterotypic TIR-TIR domain interactions are indispensable for initiating TLR signaling (Bovijn C , et. al . (2013) The Journal of biological chemistry 288(17):12054-12066). This highly compliant set of adapter molecules is critical for the initiation of related signals, and blocking of these interfaces can prevent TLR signaling. Although it is difficult to target transient interactions of the adapter proteins involved in signaling, it offers several advantages because some adapter molecules act important in different pathways in a stoichiometric manner. By targeting cytoplasmic proteins or domains, relatively high efficacy and broader specificity can be expected from signal transduction inhibition as opposed to antagonism of agonist function.
본 발명에서는, TIRAP의 첫 번째 β-sheet(βA)로부터 유래된 강력한 TLR-억제 펩타이드 3(TLR-inhibitory peptide 3; TIP3)가 TLR4에 의한 전염증성 사이토카인의 분비를 성공적으로 감소시키는 것을 확인하였다. 우선, TLR4-억제 효과는 HEK-BlueTM hTLR4 세포에서 LPS-유도 NF-κB 활성화를 평가함으로써 확인되었다. TLR4는 MyD88 및 TRIF 어댑터 분자를 통해 신호전달을 하기 때문에, TIP3가 양쪽의 TLR4 신호전달을 모두 차단하는지 여부를 확인하였다. TIP3는 LPS-자극된 쥐 및 인간 대식세포에서 전염증성 사이토카인 생산뿐만 아니라, type I 인터페론 유도를 억제하였으며(도 2 및 도 3), 이는 TIP3가 MyD88-의존적 및 TRIF-의존적 신호전달 모두를 억제할 수 있음을 의미한다. 다음으로, RAW264.7 세포에서 다른 TLR 리간드에 의해 활성화된 TNF-α 분비를 측정하고, 이후 TIP3를 처리하여, 다른 TLR에 대한 TIP3의 영향을 평가하였다. TLR에 의존적인 TNF-α 분비가 TIP3에 의해 실질적으로 저해되는 것을 확인하였다(도 2E, 도 2M 및 도 2N). TLR4 및 TLR3 신호전달에 대한 강한 억제력 외에 TLR2, TLR7, TLR8 및 TLR9 신호전달에 대한 TIP3의 낮은 억제 효과는 어댑터 단백질 및 TLR 단백질에서의 TIR 도메인이 서열 및 구조적 유사성을 공유한다는 사실에 의해 부분적으로 설명할 수 있다(Dunne A & O'Neill LA (2003) Science's STKE : signal transduction knowledge environment 2003(171):re3). TLR4의 TIR 도메인에 대한 TIP3의 선호도는 구조 연구로 설명할 수 있다. 2차, 1차 인간 및 마우스 세포주에서, 웨스턴 블랏 분석, 다양한 다중 전사 인자와 전염증성 싸이토카인의 mRNA 정량화 및 효소 결합 면역흡착 분석(Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay; ELISA)을 통해 결과를 확인했다. 결과적으로, TLR-매개 자가면역 질환 모델에서 TIP3의 보호 효과를 확인하였다.In the present invention, it was confirmed that the strong TLR-inhibitory peptide 3 (TIP3) derived from the first β-sheet (βA) of TIRAP successfully reduced the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines by TLR4. . First, the TLR4-inhibiting effect was confirmed by evaluating LPS-induced NF-κB activation in HEK-Blue ™ hTLR4 cells. Since TLR4 signals through the MyD88 and TRIF adapter molecules, it was confirmed whether TIP3 blocks both TLR4 signaling. TIP3 inhibited not only pro-inflammatory cytokine production in LPS-stimulated mouse and human macrophages, but also type I interferon induction (Figures 2 and 3), which TIP3 inhibits both MyD88-dependent and TRIF-dependent signaling. It means you can. Next, TNF-α secretion activated by other TLR ligands in RAW264.7 cells was measured, and then treated with TIP3 to evaluate the effect of TIP3 on other TLRs. It was confirmed that TNF-α secretion dependent on TLR was substantially inhibited by TIP3 (FIGS. 2E, 2M and 2N). The low inhibitory effect of TIP3 on TLR2, TLR7, TLR8 and TLR9 signaling in addition to the strong inhibitory ability on TLR4 and TLR3 signaling is partially explained by the fact that the TIR domains in the adapter protein and TLR protein share sequence and structural similarity. Can (Dunne A &O'Neill LA (2003) Science's STKE : signal transduction knowledge environment 2003(171):re3). The affinity of TIP3 for the TIR domain of TLR4 can be explained by structural studies. In secondary, primary human and mouse cell lines, the results were confirmed by Western blot analysis, mRNA quantification of various multiple transcription factors and pro-inflammatory cytokines and Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). As a result, the protective effect of TIP3 was confirmed in the TLR-mediated autoimmune disease model.
본 발명자들은 쥐 CIA 모델에서 RA에 대한 TIP3의 방어 효과를 실험하였다. TIP3는 CIA 마우스에서 RA의 유도를 유의하게 감소시켰고, 체중 감소를 역전시켰으며, 발의 부피를 감소시키고, 관절염 지수를 감소시켰다. 상기 펩타이드는 또한, 뼈가 마이크로구조와 미네랄 성분을 회복하도록 도움으로써, 뼈와 연골 부식(erosion)의 역전을 부분적으로 촉진했다(도 4). 나아가, 관절 조직 절편은 TIP3가 집중적인 면역 세포 침투를 감소시키고, 활막 조직의 두께를 감소시키며, 관절 내 정상 간격을 회복시킴으로써 조직병리학적 이상을 약화시키는 것을 보여주었다.The inventors tested the protective effect of TIP3 against RA in a rat CIA model. TIP3 significantly reduced induction of RA in CIA mice, reversed weight loss, reduced foot volume, and decreased arthritis index. The peptide also partially promoted reversal of bone and cartilage erosion by helping the bone recover microstructure and mineral components (FIG. 4 ). Furthermore, articular tissue sections have shown that TIP3 attenuates histopathological abnormalities by reducing intensive immune cell penetration, reducing synovial tissue thickness, and restoring normal spacing within the joint.
다음으로, IMQ-유도 건선-유사 질병의 마우스 모델을 이용하여 만성 염증성 피부 질환에 대한 TIP3의 효과를 확인하였으며, SLE의 MRL/lpr 마우스 모델에서의 전신성 자가면역 질환에 대한 TIP3의 효과를 확인하였다. 본 발명에 따른 펩타이드가 이들 모델에서 두 질병에 대해 보호 효과를 갖는 것을 확인하였다. 건선 모델에서, TIP3는 피부 병변을 상당히 개선시키고, 비장비대를 예방하였으며, 마우스의 전반적인 생리학적 상태를 개선시켰다. TIP3는 또한, 표피와 진피의 두께 증가를 약화시키고, 피부의 과증식 상태를 억제함으로써, 질병의 조직학적 증상을 완화시켰다. 본 발명에 따른 펩타이드의 농도-의존적 보호 효과에도 불구하고, TIP3의 50nmol/g 투여에서는 체중 감소가 관찰되었다. 그러나, 이는 전적으로 펩타이드 처리로 인한 것은 아니다. 그 이유는 10nmol/g을 처리했을 때 CIA 모델에서 유의한 체중 회복이 관찰되었기 때문이다(도 4C). 또한, TIP3는 SLE의 마우스 모델에서 림프 증식을 방지하고, 소변에서 알부민 농도를 감소시킴으로써 사구체신염 지표를 저해했다. 나아가, 본 발명에 따른 펩타이드로 마우스를 처리한 후, 보체 성분 C4 및 C3의 수준은 회복되는 반면, 항-dsDNA 자가항체의 생산은 감소하였다.Next, the effect of TIP3 on chronic inflammatory skin disease was confirmed using a mouse model of IMQ-induced psoriasis-like disease, and the effect of TIP3 on systemic autoimmune disease in the MRL/lpr mouse model of SLE was confirmed. . It was confirmed that the peptides according to the present invention have protective effects against both diseases in these models. In the psoriasis model, TIP3 significantly improved skin lesions, prevented hypertrophy, and improved the overall physiological condition of mice. TIP3 also mitigated histological symptoms of the disease by attenuating the increase in the thickness of the epidermis and dermis and suppressing the hyperproliferative state of the skin. Despite the concentration-dependent protective effect of the peptides according to the invention, weight loss was observed at 50 nmol/g administration of TIP3. However, this is not entirely due to peptide treatment. The reason is that significant weight recovery was observed in the CIA model when treated with 10 nmol/g (FIG. 4C ). In addition, TIP3 prevented lymphatic proliferation in the mouse model of SLE and inhibited glomerulonephritis index by reducing albumin concentration in urine. Furthermore, after treatment of mice with the peptides according to the invention, the levels of complement components C4 and C3 were restored, while the production of anti-dsDNA autoantibodies was reduced.
수많은 연구자들은 TLR family에서 TIR 도메인이 고도의 구조적 유사성을 공유하며, 박테리아(Alaidarous M, et al . (2014) The Journal of biological chemistry 289(2):654-668) 및 식물(Zhang X, et al . (2017) Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America 114(10):E2046-E2052)에서도 발견되는 structural folds의 가장 진화론적으로 보존된 families 중 하나에 속한다고 제안해왔다. 특히, BB loop 및 그 인접 영역은 고도로 보존되어 있으며, TIR dimerization을 위한 주요 부위뿐만 아니라 어댑터 모집 부위를 나타내는 것으로 여겨진다. 본 발명에서는, computational docking simulation을 통해 TIP3가 TLR4의 TIR 도메인에 대해 형태 및 전하의 우수한 상보성을 갖는 것을 확인하였다. 본 발명에 따른 펩타이드는 세포막을 관통하고, TLR4 TIR 도메인의 어댑터 도킹 부위에 결합함으로써, MyD88-의존적 및 비-의존적 경로를 억제한다. 주어진 TIR 도메인의 실험적 구조가 없는 상태에서 상동성 모델링(homology modeling)은 동종이량체화(homodimerization), 수용체 결합 및 어댑터-결합 인터페이스에 관한 가설에 기반한 3D 모델을 구성하는 데 널리 고려되어왔다(Li C, Zienkiewicz J, & Hawiger J (2005) The Journal of biological chemistry 280(28):26152-26159). 본 발명에서, computational docking 분석 결과, TIP3가 BB loop 영역의 TLR4 TIR 도메인에 결합하여, 하류 신호전달을 차단할 수 있음이 밝혀졌다.Numerous researchers have found that the TIR domain in the TLR family shares a high degree of structural similarity, and bacteria (Alaidarous M , et. al . (2014) The Journal of biological chemistry 289(2):654-668) and plants (Zhang X , et al . (2017) Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America 114(10):E2046-E2052) has been proposed to belong to one of the most evolutionarily conserved families of structural folds. In particular, the BB loop and its contiguous regions are highly conserved and are believed to represent adapter recruitment sites as well as major sites for TIR dimerization. In the present invention, it was confirmed through computational docking simulation that TIP3 has excellent complementarity of form and charge to the TIR domain of TLR4. The peptide according to the present invention penetrates the cell membrane and inhibits the MyD88-dependent and non-dependent pathways by binding to the adapter docking site of the TLR4 TIR domain. Homology modeling in the absence of the experimental structure of a given TIR domain has been widely considered in constructing 3D models based on hypotheses about homodimerization, receptor binding and adapter-binding interfaces (Li C, Zienkiewicz J, & Hawiger J (2005) The Journal of biological chemistry 280(28):26152-26159). In the present invention, as a result of computational docking analysis, it was found that TIP3 can bind to the TLR4 TIR domain of the BB loop region and block downstream signaling.
종합하면, 상기 결과들은 TIP3가 RA, 건선 및 SLE의 진행을 중지시키고, TLR 신호전달에 의해 매개되는 염증 반응을 감소시킴으로써 이들의 증상을 개선시킬 수 있음을 시사한다.Taken together, these results suggest that TIP3 can ameliorate their symptoms by stopping the progression of RA, psoriasis and SLE and reducing the inflammatory response mediated by TLR signaling.

The TLR4 recognizes various pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) including LPS of Gram-negative bacteria, which is very important for the activation of the innate immune system.
본 발명에서 용어, "TLR4 신호전달 경로"는 TLR4를 통한 신호전달 경로를 말한다. TLR4는 여러 어댑터 단백질에 의해 신호를 전달하며, 상기 신호전달 경로는 TIRAP(Mal로도 지칭됨)과 MyD88 및 트램(TRAM)과 트리프(TRIF)로 작동한다. TLR4 매개 신호전달 경로는 다양한 하위 신호전달 분자를 통해 MyD88-의존적 및 MyD88-비의존적 신호전달의 활성화를 유도한다. MyD88-의존 경로의 개시는 NF-κB의 초기 단계 활성화 및 TNF-α 및 IL-6와 같은 전염증성 사이토카인의 분비를 유도하며, MyD88-비의존적 경로의 개시는 IRF3 및 7의 활성화, IFNs의 분비 및 NF-κB의 후기 단계 활성화를 유도한다(Park, B.S et al ., Exp . Mol . Med . 45:e66, 2013; Nijland, R et al ., Mar . Drugs 12:4260-4273, 2014). 또한, TLR4는 ERK, JNK 및 p38를 포함하는 MAPK의 활성화를 유발하고, 염증성 사이토카인 및 IFN을 분비한다(Achek, A et al ., Arch . Pharmacal Res . 39:1032-1049, 2016; Kawai,T et al., Nat. Immunol . 11:373-384, 2010). 대식세포에서 관련 리간드에 의한 TLR4의 자극이 COX2와 iNOS를 유도하고 NO의 생성을 유도하며, 미토콘드리아와 세포 내 ROS를 생성한다(Kim, J.Y et al., Eur . J. Pharmacol . 584:175-184, 2008; Liu, K.-L. et al. J. Agric . Food Chem . 54:3472-3478, 2006; West, A.P. et al . Nature 472:476, 2011).The term "TLR4 signaling pathway" in the present invention refers to the signaling pathway through TLR4. TLR4 is signaled by several adapter proteins, and the signaling pathways work with TIRAP (also referred to as Mal) and MyD88 and TRAM and TRIF. The TLR4-mediated signaling pathway induces activation of MyD88-dependent and MyD88-independent signaling through various sub- signaling molecules. Initiation of the MyD88-independent pathway induces early stage activation of NF-κB and secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α and IL-6, and initiation of the MyD88-independent pathway activates IRF3 and 7, IFNs Induces secretion and late-stage activation of NF-κB (Park, BS et al ., Exp . Mol . Med . 45:e66, 2013; Nijland, R et al., Mar. Drugs 12: 4260-4273, 2014). In addition, TLR4 causes activation of MAPK, including ERK, JNK and p38, and secretes inflammatory cytokines and IFNs (Achek, A et. al ., Arch . Pharmacal Res . 39:1032-1049, 2016; Kawai, T et al., Nat. Immunol . 11:373-384, 2010). Stimulation of TLR4 by related ligands in macrophages induces COX2 and iNOS, induces NO production, and produces mitochondria and intracellular ROS (Kim, JY et al., Eur . J. Pharmacol . 584:175- 184, 2008; Liu, K.-L. et al. J. Agric . Food Chem . 54:3472-3478, 2006; West, AP et al . Nature 472:476, 2011).

유기체의 생물학적 복합성은 PPI(protein-protein interaction) 상호작용체의 크기로 표시된다(Stumpf, M.P. et al ., Proc . Natl . Acad . Sci . U. S. A. 105:6959-6964, 2008). 대략, 의약 단백질의 절반(총 ~ 3000-5000)은 질병 상태와 관련이 있을 것으로 예상된다(Hambly, K et al ., Mol . Divers . 10:273-281, 2006). 생물학적 과정을 이해하는데 있어서 PPI의 역할은 필수적이며, 'druggability'의 특성은 deregulate PPI의 강력한 조절제를 찾는 데 결정적으로 중요하다. 또한, 소분자로 PPI 인터페이스를 저해하는 것은 어려운 문제이다.The biological complexity of the organism is expressed by the size of the protein-protein interaction (PPI) interaction (Stumpf, MP). et al ., Proc . Natl . Acad . Sci . USA 105:6959-6964, 2008). Approximately, half of the medicinal proteins (total ~ 3000-5000) are expected to be associated with disease states (Hambly, K et. al ., Mol . Divers . 10:273-281, 2006). The role of PPI in understanding biological processes is essential, and the characteristic of'druggability' is crucial for finding a strong regulator of deregulate PPI. In addition, it is a difficult problem to inhibit the PPI interface with small molecules.
따라서, 펩타이드 기반 치료제는 단백질 성질 및 유사한 결합 방식으로 인해 PPI 치료시 단백질의 영향을 극복할 수 있다. 펩타이드 또는 펩타이드 유사 약물의 개발은 특히 소분자 기반 치료법에 덜 적합한 PPI 인터페이스를 목표로 하여 'druggable genome'을 확장하는 핵심 방법이다. 펩타이드 약물은 소분자에 비해 낮은 독성과 향상된 표적 선택성을 갖는다. 치료제로서의 유망한 효과에도 불구하고, 펩타이드-기반 약물의 개발은 숙주 단백질 분해 효소에 대한 안정성이 낮아 생체 내 활성이 낮고 생체 이용률이 낮다.Thus, peptide-based therapeutics can overcome the effects of proteins on PPI treatment due to protein properties and similar binding methods. The development of peptides or peptide-like drugs is a key way to extend the'druggable genome', targeting PPI interfaces that are less suitable for small molecule based therapies. Peptide drugs have lower toxicity and improved target selectivity compared to small molecules.

실시예Example 1: One: TIRAPTIRAP -유래 -origin TLRTLR -- 억제성Inhibitory 펩타이드의Peptide 선별 및 세포 투과성 Screening and cell permeability 펩타이드를Peptides 결합시킨 융합 Combined fusion 펩타이드Peptide 제조 Produce
단백질-단백질 인터페이스(interface)는 인터페이스를 조작함으로써 특정 신호전달 경로를 방해하는 데 널리 이용되고 있다. 본 발명자들은 TIR-TIR 상호작용을 방해함으로써 myddosome 어셈블리를 파괴할 것으로 추정되는 TIRAP의 짧은 펩타이드 조각을 선택했다. 구체적으로, βA와 βB 두 개의 β-sheet 구조가 TIRAP 코어 영역으로부터 구조적 생물 정보학 접근법을 통해 선택되었다(도 1A). 디자인된 펩타이드를 TIP3(TLR-inhibitory peptide 3) (DYDVCVCH; 서열번호 1)와 TIP2(TIPLLS; 서열번호 2)로 명명하였으며, 세포 내 전위(translocation) 및 타겟 사이트에의 효율적인 전달을 위해, Drosophila antennapedia homeodomain(Derossi D, Joliot AH, Chassaing G, & Prochiantz A (1994) The Journal of biological chemistry 269(14):10444-10450)에서 유래된 세포 투과성 펩타이드(cell penetrating peptide, CPP)(RQIKIWFQNRRMKWKK; 서열번호 3)를 TIP3 및 TIP2의 N-말단에 융합시켰다.Protein-protein interfaces are widely used to interfere with specific signaling pathways by manipulating the interface. We chose a short peptide fragment of TIRAP that is believed to disrupt myddosome assembly by interfering with TIR-TIR interaction. Specifically, two β-sheet structures, βA and βB, were selected from the TIRAP core region through a structural bioinformatics approach (FIG. 1A ). The designed peptides were named TIP3 (TLR-inhibitory peptide 3) (DYDVCVCH; SEQ ID NO: 1) and TIP2 (TIPLLS; SEQ ID NO: 2), for intracellular translocation and efficient delivery to target sites, Drosophila antennapedia homeodomain (Derossi D, Joliot AH, Chassaing G, & Prochiantz A (1994) The Journal of biological Cell penetrating peptide (CPP) (RQIKIWFQNRRMKWKK; SEQ ID NO: 3) derived from chemistry 269(14):10444-10450) was fused to the N-terminus of TIP3 and TIP2.
TIP3 및 TIP2는 12.5 내지 50μM 범위에서 유의미한 세포독성(cytotoxicity)을 나타내지 않은 반면, 고농도인 100μM에서는 약간의 세포독성을 나타냈다. 농도-의존적 생존율 데이터를 통해 TIP3가 50μM 및 그 이하의 농도에서 세포 생존율에 영향을 미치지 않음을 확인할 수 있으므로, 상기 범위 내에서 안전한 것으로 가정했다(도 1B).TIP3 and TIP2 did not show significant cytotoxicity in the range of 12.5 to 50 μM, while they showed some cytotoxicity at high concentrations of 100 μM. The concentration-dependent survival data confirmed that TIP3 did not affect cell viability at a concentration of 50 μM or less, and thus was assumed to be safe within the above range (FIG. 1B ).
선택된 펩타이드의 억제 효과를 연구하기 위해, LPS에 의해 자극된 HEK-BlueTM hTLR4 세포를 기반으로 한 SEAP(secreted embryonic alkaline phosphatase) 활성 분석을 통해 NF-κB 활성을 측정했다. 그 결과, TIP2와 달리, TIP3는 농도-의존적으로 LPS-유도 SEAP 활성을 방해할 수 있음을 확인하였다(도 1C).In order to study the inhibitory effect of the selected peptide, NF-κB activity was measured by analyzing secreted embryonic alkaline phosphatase (SEAP) activity based on HEK-Blue TM hTLR4 cells stimulated by LPS. As a result, it was confirmed that unlike TIP2, TIP3 can interfere with LPS-induced SEAP activity in a concentration-dependent manner (FIG. 1C).

TLR 중 TLR4는 예외적으로 MyD88 및 TRIF 어댑터 단백질을 통해, 시간-의존적 방식으로 동시에 하류 신호전달 네트워크를 활성화시킨다(Schett G, Dayer JM, & Manger B (2016) Nature reviews . Rheumatology 12(1):14-24). 따라서, LPS-자극된 쥐(murine) RAW264.7 세포에서 TLR4 경로의 양쪽 신호전달에 대한 TIP3의 억제 효과를 조사하였다.Of the TLRs, TLR4 exceptionally activates downstream signaling networks simultaneously in a time-dependent manner via MyD88 and TRIF adapter proteins (Schett G, Dayer JM, & Manger B (2016) Nature reviews . Rheumatology 12(1):14-24). Thus, the inhibitory effect of TIP3 on both signaling of the TLR4 pathway in LPS-stimulated murine RAW264.7 cells was investigated.
TIP3는 50μM에서 RAW264.7 세포에 독성 효과를 나타내지 않았으며(도 2A), 상기 언급한 HEK-BlueTM hTLR4 생존율 결과를 확인하였다. TIP3가 Iκ-Bα 분해를 억제하고 NF-κB의 서브유닛 p-65의 인산화(p-p65) 및 IRF3의 인산화(p-IRF3)를 억제함으로써, LPS-유도 MyD88-의존적 및 비의존적 신호전달 경로를 억제하는 것을 웨스턴 블랏 데이터를 통해 확인하였다(도 2B). 나아가, TIP3는 ERK(extracellular signal-regulated kinase), JNK(c-Jun N-terminal kinase) 및 p38의 인산화를 억제함으로써, LPS-유도된 ATF3(activating transcription factor 3)의 발현 및 MAPKs(mitogen-activated protein kinases)의 활성화를 방해하였다(도 2B 및 도 2C). TIP3가 LPS-유도된 p-p65의 핵으로의 이동을 감소시키는 것을 공초점 현미경(confocal microscopy) 분석으로 확인했다(도 2D). TIP3는 전염증성 사이토카인(TNF-α 및 IL-6) 및 IFN-α, IFN-β의 in vitro 생산을 농도-의존적으로 방지했다(도 2E 내지 도 2H).TIP3 did not show a toxic effect on RAW264.7 cells at 50 μM (FIG. 2A ), confirming the HEK-Blue TM hTLR4 survival rate results mentioned above. TPS3 inhibits Iκ-Bα degradation and inhibits phosphorylation (p-p65) of subunit p-65 of NF-κB and phosphorylation of IRF3 (p-IRF3), thereby causing LPS-induced MyD88-dependent and independent signaling pathways Was confirmed through Western blot data (FIG. 2B ). Furthermore, TIP3 inhibits phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and p38, thereby expressing LPS-induced activating transcription factor 3 (ATF3) and mitogen-activated MAPKs. protein kinases) (Fig. 2B and Fig. 2C). It was confirmed by confocal microscopy analysis that TIP3 reduced the migration of LPS-induced p-p65 to the nucleus (FIG. 2D). TIP3 is a proinflammatory cytokine (TNF-α and IL-6) and IFN-α, IFN-β in In vitro production was prevented in a concentration-dependent manner (FIGS. 2E-2H ).
TLR4와 유사한 리간드에 의한 TLR4의 자극은 RAW264.7 세포에서 산화 질소(Nitric Oxide; NO) 생산뿐만 아니라 COX2(cyclooxygenase 2) 및 iNOS(inducible nitric oxide synthase)의 유도로 이어진다(Kim JY, et al . (2008) European journal of pharmacology 584(1):175-184). 또한, LPS에 의한 일차 대식세포의 자극은 미토콘드리아 및 세포 내 ROS(reactive oxygen species) 생성 유도의 원인이 되는 것으로 보고되었다(West AP, et al . (2011) Nature 472(7344):476-480). TIP3는 NO의 LPS-매개 세포 외 분비와 iNOS 및 COX2의 발현을 농도-의존적 방식으로 억제하였다(도 2I 및 도 2J). NO와 ROS의 세포 내 생성은 유의하게 억제되었다(도 2K 및 도 2L). 이러한 결과는 TIP3가 RAW264.7 세포에서 LPS-유도 MyD88-의존적 및 MyD88-비의존적 TLR4 신호전달을 저해한다는 것을 의미한다.Stimulation of TLR4 by ligands similar to TLR4 leads to nitric oxide (NO) production in RAW264.7 cells, as well as induction of cyclooxygenase 2 (COX2) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) (Kim JY , et. al . (2008) European journal of pharmacology 584(1):175-184). In addition, stimulation of primary macrophages by LPS has been reported to cause mitochondria and intracellular ROS (reactive oxygen species) production induction (West AP , et. al . (2011) Nature 472 (7344):476-480). TIP3 inhibited LPS-mediated extracellular secretion of NO and expression of iNOS and COX2 in a concentration-dependent manner (FIGS. 2I and 2J). Intracellular production of NO and ROS was significantly inhibited (Figures 2K and 2L). These results indicate that TIP3 inhibits LPS-induced MyD88-dependent and MyD88-independent TLR4 signaling in RAW264.7 cells.
다른 TLR에 대한 TIP3의 효과를 확인하기 위해, 다른 TLR 리간드(PAM3CSK4(TLR1/2), FSL-1(TLR2/6), poly(I:C)(TLR3), resiquimod(TLR7/8) 또는 CpG-ODN(TLR9))를 처리한 후, RAW264.7 세포에서 TNF-α 분비 수준을 측정하였다. TIP3는 50μM에서 TLR1/2, TLR2/6, TLR7, TLR8 및 TLR9에 의해 매개되는 TNF-α 분비를 다소 억제시켰으며, TLR3-매개 TNF-α 분비는 농도-의존적으로 유의하게 감소시켰다(도 2M 및 도 2N). 이와 유사하게, RAW264.7 세포에서 IL-6, IFN-α 및 IFN-β의 poly(I:C)-유도된 분비 또한 억제되었다(도 2O 및 도 2P). TIP3가 단백질 발현 수준의 억제와 동일하게, 쥐의 대식세포에서 tnf -α, il -6, ifn -β, cxcl -10 및 il-1β 유전자의 mRNA 발현을 유의하게 억제시키는 것을 qRT-PCR을 통해 확인하였다(도 2Q 내지 도 2U).To confirm the effect of TIP3 on other TLRs, other TLR ligands (PAM 3 CSK 4 (TLR1/2), FSL-1 (TLR2/6), poly(I:C)(TLR3), resiquimod (TLR7/8) ) Or CpG-ODN (TLR9)), followed by measuring the level of TNF-α secretion in RAW264.7 cells. TIP3 somewhat inhibited TNF-α secretion mediated by TLR1/2, TLR2/6, TLR7, TLR8 and TLR9 at 50 μM, and TLR3-mediated TNF-α secretion was significantly decreased in a concentration-dependent manner (FIG. 2M And Figure 2N). Similarly, poly(I:C)-induced secretion of IL-6, IFN-α and IFN-β in RAW264.7 cells was also inhibited (FIGS. 2O and 2P ). QRT-PCR showed that TIP3 significantly inhibits mRNA expression of tnf -α, il -6, ifn -β, cxcl -10 and i l-1β genes in rat macrophages, the same as the inhibition of protein expression levels. It was confirmed through (Fig. 2Q to 2U).

RAW264.7 세포에서 관찰되는 TIP3의 억제 효과를 더 확장하여 평가하기 위해 THP-1 유래 대식세포에서 유사한 실험을 수행하였다. 어떠한 세포독성이 없는 상태에서(도 3A), NF-κB 및 MAPK의 LPS-유도 활성화에 대한 펩타이드의 효과를 웨스턴 블랏 분석으로 평가하였다. 그 결과, TIP3가 인간 말초혈액 단핵세포(hPBMCs)에서 NF-κB, ATF3의 활성화 및 IRF3의 인산화를 성공적으로 방해하는 것을 확인하였다(도 3B). TIP3는 또한 ERK, JNK 및 p38를 포함하는 MAPK의 인산화를 억제하였다(도 3C). 나아가, TIP3는 THP-1 세포에서 TNF-α 및 IL-6 분비에 대해 상당한 농도-의존적 억제 효과를 나타냈다(도 3D 및 도 3E). TIP3(50μM)를 1시간 동안 처리하고, LPS를 4시간 동안 동시 처리했을 때의 THP-1 세포에서 전염증성 사이토카인(IL-6, TNF-α, IL-1β)과 케모카인(IL-8)의 mRNA 발현을 관찰하였다. 그 결과, TIP3가 LPS에 의해 유도된 이들 사이토카인 및 IL-8의 mRNA 발현을 성공적으로 저해한다는 것을 확인하였다(도 3F 내지 도 3I).Similar experiments were performed on THP-1 derived macrophages to further evaluate the inhibitory effect of TIP3 observed in RAW264.7 cells. In the absence of any cytotoxicity (FIG. 3A ), the effect of the peptides on LPS-induced activation of NF-κB and MAPK was evaluated by Western blot analysis. As a result, it was confirmed that TIP3 successfully interferes with the activation of NF-κB, ATF3 and phosphorylation of IRF3 in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (hPBMCs) (FIG. 3B ). TIP3 also inhibited phosphorylation of MAPK, including ERK, JNK and p38 (Figure 3C). Furthermore, TIP3 showed a significant concentration-dependent inhibitory effect on TNF-α and IL-6 secretion in THP-1 cells (FIGS. 3D and 3E ). Infectious cytokines (IL-6, TNF-α, IL-1β) and chemokines (IL-8) in THP-1 cells when TIP3 (50 μM) was treated for 1 hour and LPS was treated simultaneously for 4 hours. MRNA expression was observed. As a result, it was confirmed that TIP3 successfully inhibited mRNA expression of these cytokines and IL-8 induced by LPS (FIGS. 3F to 3I ).
이와 마찬가지로 일차 쥐 골수-유래 대식세포(mBMDMs)에서 TIP3의 억제 효과를 평가하였다. 세포를 TIP3로 1시간 동안 전처리 한 후 24시간 동안 LPS를 동시 처리하였다. RAW264.7 세포와 마찬가지로, TIP3는 mBMDMs에서 TLR4-매개 IL-6, TNF-α의 분비 및 TLR3-매개 IFN-β의 분비를 억제하였다(도 3J 내지 도 3L). 또한, NO의 세포 외 생성의 유의한 감소가 관찰되었다(도 3M). 인간 단핵세포(hMNC)에서 시험했을 때, TIP3는 유사한 효과를 나타냈으며, 세포 생존율(도 3N) 및 사이토카인 분비의 관점에서 실질적으로 재현 가능한 결과가 관찰되었다. TIP3는 TLR4-매개 IL-6 분비 및 TLR4-매개 및 TLR3-매개 TNF-α의 분비를 유의하게 억제하였다(도 3O 내지 도 3Q).Similarly, the inhibitory effect of TIP3 on primary mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages (mBMDMs) was evaluated. Cells were pretreated with TIP3 for 1 hour followed by LPS treatment for 24 hours. Like RAW264.7 cells, TIP3 inhibited secretion of TLR4-mediated IL-6, TNF-α and secretion of TLR3-mediated IFN-β in mBMDMs (Figures 3J to 3L). In addition, a significant reduction in the extracellular production of NO was observed (Figure 3M). When tested in human mononuclear cells (hMNC), TIP3 showed similar effects, and substantially reproducible results were observed in terms of cell viability (FIG. 3N) and cytokine secretion. TIP3 significantly inhibited TLR4-mediated IL-6 secretion and TLR4-mediated and TLR3-mediated TNF-α secretion (FIGS. 3O-3Q ).

RA에 대한 TIP3의 상대적인 치료 효과를 평가하기 위해, 처리 과정 동안 체중, 발 부피 및 관절염 지수를 포함한 여러 파라미터들을 모니터링 했다. 무릎, 발목, 발의 붓기를 나타내는 이미지에 따르면, day 22에서 day 35 사이에 모든 팔다리에 관절염 증상이 분명하게 나타났다. 대조적으로, CIA 마우스에 비해 TIP3-주입 마우스에서 RA의 유도는 크게 약화되었다(도 4B 및 도 5). 관절염 발생 전 기간 동안 CIA 마우스의 체중은 감소한 반면(평균 18.2g), 정상(대조군) 마우스의 체중은 증가하였다(평균 21.9g). TIP3(10nmol/g)-주입 및 methotrexate(MTX)-주입 마우스에서 체중 감소는 관찰되지 않았다(각각 평균 20.5g 및 21.0g; 도 4C). 정상, CIA 및 TIP3-주입 마우스에서 상대적인 발의 부피를 측정하였다. 정상 마우스와 비교하여, 미처리 CIA 그룹 발의 부피는 컸지만, TIP3(10nmol/g)-주입 및 MTX 주입 마우스는 그렇지 않았다(도 4D). 관절염 지수도 CIA 마우스에서는 증가했지만, TIP3(10nmol/g) 또는 MTX 처리된 경우는 이 지수를 유의하게 감소시켰다(도 4E).In this example, the CIA mouse model was used to investigate the anti-inflammatory effect of TIP3 in chronic inflammatory diseases such as RA. The TIP3 treatment plan is summarized in Figure 4A. To evaluate the relative therapeutic effect of TIP3 on RA, several parameters were monitored during treatment, including body weight, foot volume and arthritis index. According to images showing swelling of the knees, ankles, and feet, arthritis symptoms were evident on all limbs between
Post-arthritis phase(PAP) TIP3(10nmol/g)-처리 마우스(day 35부터 처리 시작)의 경우, 발 부피 및 관절염 지수로 표시되는 관절염의 발달은 CIA 마우스와 비교할 때 유의하게 억제되었다. 그러나 체중의 유의한 변화는 관찰되지 않았다. 뼈 부식(erosion) 역전의 정도를 평가하기 위해, in vivo micro-computed tomography(Micro-CT) scanning 동안, 정상, CIA 및 TIP3(10nmol/g)-주입 마우스의 무릎 관절의 3차원(3D) 이미지 및 해면질골(trabecular bones), 피질골(cortical bones)의 2D 이미지를 확인하였다. 정상 마우스와 비교할 때, CIA 마우스에서는 무릎 관절의 뼈와 연골에서 심각한 부식이 관찰되었고, 뼈의 미세구조 손실, 피질의 두께 감소 및 골밀도의 감소가 관찰되었다(도 4F 내지 도 4H). 한편, TIP3-처리 마우스는 뼈 손실이 두드러지게 회복되었으며, 염증 점수가 현저하게 감소 하였다(도 4F 내지 도 4J 및 도 6 내지 도 8). Hematoxylin 및 eosin(H&E)으로 염색된 관절 조직 절편의 조직학적 검사에서, CIA 마우스에서의 면역 세포의 침투, 더 두꺼운 활액 조직(synovial tissues), 활액 과형성(synovial hyperplasia), pannus 형성 및 관절 간격 축소가 명확하게 나타났다. 이러한 현상은 10nmol/g TIP3를 처리한 마우스에서 현저히 역전되었으며, 상기 조직병리학적 이상(histopathological aberrations)을 농도-의존적으로 효과적으로 방지하였다(도 4K). 이러한 조직학적 관찰 결과는 Micro-CT 영상에서 얻은 데이터와 일치하였다.In the post-arthritis phase (PAP) TIP3 (10 nmol/g)-treated mice (starting treatment from day 35), the development of arthritis, expressed in foot volume and arthritis index, was significantly inhibited when compared to CIA mice. However, no significant change in body weight was observed. To assess the extent of bone erosion reversal, in vivo During micro-computed tomography (Micro-CT) scanning, 3D (3D) images of the knee joints of normal, CIA and TIP3 (10 nmol/g)-injected mice and 2D of trabecular bones and cortical bones The image was confirmed. Compared to normal mice, severe corrosion was observed in the bones and cartilage of the knee joint in the CIA mice, and bone microstructure loss, cortical thickness reduction, and bone density reduction were observed (FIGS. 4F to 4H). On the other hand, in TIP3-treated mice, bone loss was significantly recovered, and the inflammation score was significantly reduced (FIGS. 4F to 4J and FIGS. 6 to 8 ). In histological examination of joint tissue sections stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E), infiltration of immune cells in CIA mice, thicker synovial tissues, synovial hyperplasia, pannus formation and joint gap reduction It appeared clearly. This phenomenon was significantly reversed in mice treated with 10 nmol/g TIP3, and the histopathological aberrations were effectively prevented in a concentration-dependent manner (FIG. 4K). The histological observations were consistent with the data obtained from the micro-CT images.

TIP3의 in vivo 치료 효과를 확인하고자 하였다. 6-7주령 C57BL/6 마우스를 Orient Bio Inc.(Seongnam, Korea)에서 구입했다. 마우스를 특정 병원균이 없는 조건하에 보관하고, 임의로 표준 실험 식단(STD)을 제공하였다. 모든 동물 실험은 아주대학교의 동물 실험 및 사용위원회(IACUC)의 승인을 받았다(승인 번호 2017-0002). IMQ가 함유된 62.5mg Aldara 크림(5%)(Aldara; 3M, Maplewood, MN, USA)을 5일 연속 사용하여, 건선과 유사한 증상이 생성되었다. IMQ는 대조군에 적용되지 않았다. 마우스에 Aldara 크림(5%)을 도포하기 하루 전, TIP3(10 또는 50nmol/g) 또는 PBS(대조군)를 투여 하였다. 양성 대조군으로 MTX(10μg/g; cat. # M9929, Sigma-Aldrich) 또한 IMQ 크림 도포 하루 전에 투여하였다. 5일 후, 마우스를 호흡 마취로 안락사 시키고, 분석을 위해 피부 병변, 비장 및 혈청 샘플을 수집하였다. 등 피부의 염증 정도를 평가하기 위해, 임상 PASI(Psoriasis Area and Severity Index; 중증도 지수)를 토대로 객관적인 채점 시스템을 개발하였다. 홍반(erythema), 스케일링(scaling), 주름(wrinkles) 및 두꺼워짐(thickening)을 독립적으로 0에서 4까지 다음과 같이 점수를 매겼다: 1, 약간; 2, 중간; 3, 상당함; 4, 매우 현저함. 홍반, 스케일링 및 두께는 숙련된 연구자의 면밀한 감독하에 채점되었다. 누적 점수(홍반+스케일링+두꺼워짐, 0-12 등급)는 건선 증상의 중증도를 나타낸다.TIP3 in vivo It was intended to confirm the therapeutic effect. 6-7 week old C57BL/6 mice were purchased from Orient Bio Inc. (Seongnam, Korea). Mice were stored under conditions free of specific pathogens and optionally provided with a standard experimental diet (STD). All animal experiments were approved by the Ajou University Animal Experiment and Use Committee (IACUC) (approval number 2017-0002). 62.5 mg Aldara cream (5%) with IMQ (Aldara; 3M, Maplewood, MN, USA) was used for 5 consecutive days to produce symptoms similar to psoriasis. IMQ was not applied to the control group. One day before application of Aldara cream (5%) to mice, TIP3 (10 or 50 nmol/g) or PBS (control) was administered. As a positive control, MTX (10 μg/g; cat. # M9929, Sigma-Aldrich) was also administered one day before application of the IMQ cream. After 5 days, mice were euthanized by respiratory anesthesia, and skin lesions, spleen and serum samples were collected for analysis. To evaluate the degree of inflammation of the back skin, an objective scoring system was developed based on the clinical PSI (Psoriasis Area and Severity Index). Erythema, scaling, wrinkles and thickening were scored independently from 0 to 4 as follows: 1, slightly; 2, medium; 3, significant; 4, very remarkable. Erythema, scaling and thickness were scored under close supervision of skilled researchers. Cumulative scores (erythema + scaling + thickening, grades 0-12) indicate the severity of psoriasis symptoms.

건선은 표피 세포의 증폭된 증식, 변화된 분화 및 염증 세포 침투를 특징으로 하는 만성 염증성 피부 질환이다(Schon MP, Boehncke WH, & Brocker EB (2005) Discovery medicine 5(27):253-258). 건선의 발병 및 진행에 TLRs이 관련되어 있음이 밝혀져 있다(Baker BS, Ovigne JM, Powles AV, Corcoran S, & Fry L (2003) The British journal of dermatology 148(4):670-679). 따라서, 본 발명자들은 건선 모델에서 가능한 TIP3-매개 TLR의 저해 및 증상의 근본적인 완화를 확인하고자 하였다.Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease characterized by amplified proliferation of epidermal cells, altered differentiation and inflammatory cell penetration (Schon MP, Boehncke WH, & Brocker EB (2005) Discovery medicine 5(27):253-258). It has been found that TLRs are involved in the development and progression of psoriasis (Baker BS, Ovigne JM, Powles AV, Corcoran S, & Fry L (2003) The British journal of dermatology 148(4):670-679). Therefore, the present inventors attempted to confirm possible inhibition of TIP3-mediated TLR and fundamental relief of symptoms in the psoriasis model.
6 내지 7주령 C57BL/6 마우스에서 면도한 등 피부에 5일 연속으로 62.5mg의 imiquimod(IMQ) 크림(5%)을 국소 도포하여 건선을 유발시켰다(도 9A). 염증 정도의 역전이 TIP3-처리 마우스의 등 피부에 분명하게 나타났다(도 9B). 10nmol/g TIP3를 처리한 마우스는 MTX-처리 그룹보다 상대적으로 약한 효과를 나타내었다. 또한, PASI 결과에 따르면, TIP3는 day 2부터 시작하여 PASI 점수를 크게 감소시키지는 않았지만(도 9C), 비장비대(splenomegaly)를 농도-의존적 방식으로 현저하게 방지하였다(도 9D). 50nmol/g 농도로 처리하면 비장 중량을 현저하게 감소시켜(정상 쥐의 비장과 비교하여), 훨씬 더 좋은 효과를 나타낸다. 50nmol/g-처리군은 MTX-처리 및 TIP3(10nmol/g)-처리군(도 9E)과 비교하여 체중 감소를 나타냈다. 나아가, 각 그룹에서 피부의 조직병리학적 변화와 두께를 H&E 염색으로 평가하였다. 그 결과, 50nmol/g 및 10nmol/g 농도의 TIP3 처리는 IMQ-유도 건선-유사 질환을 갖는 마우스에서 표피(노란색 화살표) 및 진피(초록색 화살표)의 두께를 두드러지게 감소시키는 것을 확인하였다(도 9F 내지 도 9H).Psoriasis was induced by topical application of 62.5 mg of imiquimod (IMQ) cream (5%) to the skin for 5 days in a row, shaved in 6-7 week old C57BL/6 mice (FIG. 9A). Inflammation reversal was clearly seen on the back skin of TIP3-treated mice (FIG. 9B ). Mice treated with 10 nmol/g TIP3 showed a relatively weak effect than the MTX-treated group. In addition, according to the PASI results, TIP3 did not significantly reduce the PASI score starting from day 2 (FIG. 9C), but significantly prevented the splenomegaly in a concentration-dependent manner (FIG. 9D). Treatment with a concentration of 50 nmol/g significantly reduces the spleen weight (compared to the normal rat spleen), showing a much better effect. The 50 nmol/g-treated group showed weight loss compared to the MTX-treated and TIP3 (10 nmol/g)-treated groups (FIG. 9E). Furthermore, the histopathological changes and thickness of skin in each group were evaluated by H&E staining. As a result, it was confirmed that treatment with 50 nmol/g and 10 nmol/g TIP3 significantly reduced the thickness of the epidermis (yellow arrow) and dermis (green arrow) in mice with IMQ-induced psoriasis-like disease (FIG. 9F). To Figure 9H).
피부의 과증식(hyperproliferative) 상태 및 면역 세포 침투(T 세포 또는 대식세포)는 건선의 주요 특징으로 간주된다. 따라서, CD68(대식세포 마커)을 인식하는 일차 항체에 의해 각 그룹의 등 피부 병변의 면역 조직 화학 분석을 통해 대식세포에 의한 피부 침투에 대한 TIP3의 영향을 평가하였다. 그 결과, TIP3가 IMQ-유도 건선-유사 질환을 가진 마우스에서 CD68(갈색 염색)의 과발현을 효과적으로 감소시키는 것을 확인하였고, 이는 MTX-처리군에서도 마찬가지인 것으로 나타났다(도 9I).The hyperproliferative condition of the skin and immune cell penetration (T cells or macrophages) are considered to be the main features of psoriasis. Therefore, the effect of TIP3 on skin penetration by macrophages was evaluated by immunohistochemical analysis of each group of back skin lesions by primary antibodies recognizing CD68 (macrophage markers). As a result, it was confirmed that TIP3 effectively reduced overexpression of CD68 (brown staining) in mice with IMQ-induced psoriasis-like disease, which was also found in the MTX-treated group (FIG. 9I ).

All animal experiments were reviewed and approved by the AAC University Medical Center IACUC (approval number 2017-0022). Mice were acclimatized for 1 week and then bred under pathogen-free conditions according to the approved guidelines of Ajou University School of Medicine. The mice in the vehicle group were injected with intraperitoneal (ip) 1% dimethyl sulfoxide, while others were injected with 10 nmol/g (dissolved in 1% dimethyl sulfoxide) TIP3 per day for 20 days, and their weight was monitored daily. . Mice were euthanized at the end of the experiment and blood, urine and tissues were collected. After incubation for 1 hour, blood samples were collected in a serum separation tube, centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 10 minutes at 20°C, and then stored at -80°C. Collected urine samples were immediately stored at -80°C, while tissue samples were thoroughly washed with PBS and immersed in RNA stabilization solution (Qiagen Sciences, Maryland, MD, USA). The concentrations of anti-dsDNA antibody and C3 complement were analyzed by ELISA. In addition, mouse urine albumin levels were analyzed using a Mouse Albumin ELISA Kit (41-ALBMS-E01, Alpco Diagnostics, Salem, NH, USA). Three independent measurements were performed per sample.

전신성 자가면역에 대한 TIP3의 치료 효능을 SLE 마우스 모델에서 평가하였다. MRL/lpr 돌연변이 마우스에 10nmol/g TIP3를 매일 20일 동안 복강 내(intraperitoneally) 주사하였다(도 10A). vehicle-처리 마우스와 비교할 때, TIP3-처리 마우스는 림프 팽창 및 비장 부피를 현저히 감소시킴으로써, 마우스의 상태를 상당히 개선시켰다(도 10B 및 도 10C). 신장의 염증은 사구체신염(glomerulonephritis)으로 알려진 특정 유형의 신장 병리로 이어질 수 있다. 사구체신염은 SLE에 기인하며, 이의 중증도 평가는 소변에서의 알부민(albumin)과 같은 특정 순환 단백질의 검출을 통해 이루어질 수 있다. 도 10D에 도시된 바와 같이, 소변에서의 알부민은 TIP3 처리에 의해 감소되어 신장 염증에 대한 치료 효과를 나타낸다. 또한, 항-이중나선 DNA 자가항체(anti-double-stranded DNA(dsDNA) autoantibodies)의 생산은 TIP3를 처리한 후에도 낮게 유지되었다(도 10E). 혈청에서의 보체(complement) 성분, 특히 C4와 C3의 상대적으로 낮은 수준은 SLE의 흔한 지표이다. 대조군 돌연변이 마우스와 비교할 때, TIP3-처리 마우스의 혈청에서 C3 수준은 회복되는 것을 확인하였다(도 10F).The therapeutic efficacy of TIP3 for systemic autoimmunity was evaluated in a SLE mouse model. MRL/lpr mutant mice were injected intraperitoneally with 10 nmol/g TIP3 daily for 20 days (FIG. 10A ). Compared to vehicle-treated mice, TIP3-treated mice significantly improved the condition of the mice by significantly reducing lymphatic expansion and spleen volume (Figures 10B and 10C). Inflammation of the kidneys can lead to a specific type of kidney pathology known as glomerulonephritis. Glomerulonephritis is due to SLE, and its severity can be assessed through the detection of certain circulating proteins, such as albumin in urine. As shown in Figure 10D, albumin in urine is reduced by TIP3 treatment, indicating a therapeutic effect on kidney inflammation. In addition, the production of anti-double-stranded DNA (anti-double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) autoantibodies) remained low after TIP3 treatment (Figure 10E). The relatively low levels of complement components in serum, especially C4 and C3, are common indicators of SLE. When compared to the control mutant mice, it was confirmed that the C3 level was recovered in the serum of TIP3-treated mice (FIG. 10F ).

막 삽입 및 이동을 촉진시키기 위해, TIP3를 세포-투과성 펩타이드(cell-penetrating peptide)와 접합시켰다(CPP-TIP3). CPP-TIP3의 3D 모델은 Discovery Studio(DS) Visualizer(Dassault Systemes BIOVIA, San Diego, CA, USA)에서 예측된 2차 구조(PSIPRED)에 기초하여 제작되었다(Jones DT (1999) Journal of molecular biology 292(2):195-202). 펩타이드의 에너지 최소화(energy minimization) 및 분자 동역학(molecular dynamics; MD) 시뮬레이션은 합리적인 측쇄 3차원 구조를 모델링하기 위해 dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine 이중층을 통해 수행되었다. 펩타이드는 이중층 표면 위 10Å에 위치하였고, MD 시뮬레이션은 GROMACS 5.0.7에서 수행되었다(Van Der Spoel D, et al . (2005) Journal of computational chemistry 26(16):1701-1718).To facilitate membrane insertion and migration, TIP3 was conjugated with a cell-penetrating peptide (CPP-TIP3). The 3D model of CPP-TIP3 was created based on the predicted secondary structure (PSIPRED) in the Discovery Studio (DS) Visualizer (Dassault Systemses BIOVIA, San Diego, CA, USA) (Jones DT (1999) Journal of molecular biology 292(2):195-202). Peptide energy minimization and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were performed through a dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine bilayer to model a rational side chain three-dimensional structure. The peptide was located 10 위 above the bilayer surface, and MD simulation was performed in GROMACS 5.0.7 (Van Der Spoel D , et. al . (2005) Journal of computational chemistry 26(16):1701-1718).

Short-range(Lennard Jones) 상호작용은 Verlet scheme을 통해 12Å cutoff 거리로 계산되었고, long-range(Coulomb) 상호작용은 particle mesh Ewald 알고리즘에 의해 계산되었다. 주기적인 경계 조건이 시뮬레이션 시스템에 적용되었다. 온도 및 압력 커플링은 각각 Nose-Hoover(300K) 및 Parrinello-Rahman 알고리즘(1bar)으로 수행되었다. 수소 원자가 관여된 모든 결합에 대한 제약에 LINCS 알고리즘이 적용되었으며, 구조적 스냅샷은 2ps마다 저장되었다.MD simulation of TIP3 modeling was performed on a pre-equilibrated dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine bilayer composed of 288 phospholipids. A modified force field with GROMOS96 54A7 and Berger lipid parameters was selected. Orientation and placement of peptides on the membrane was performed in VMD 1.9.1 (Humphrey W, Dalke A, & Schulten K (1996) Journal of molecular graphics 14(1):33-38, 27-38). The counter ion (Na + / Cl -) charge point of a single water molecule and physiological concentrations (0.15M) was added to the charge neutralization. In order to remove the three-dimensional collision between atoms, a rapid reduction of the down energy was performed. MD simulation was first performed using NVT ensemble, then NPT ensemble was performed for 100 ps. Production was performed for 100 ns without resistance to backbone heavy atoms for NPU ensemble. Short-range (Lennard Jones) interaction was calculated with a 12 Å cutoff distance through the Verlet scheme, and long-range (Coulomb) interaction was calculated by the particle mesh Ewald algorithm. Periodic boundary conditions were applied to the simulation system. Temperature and pressure couplings were performed with Nose-Hoover (300K) and Parrinello-Rahman algorithm (1 bar), respectively. The LINCS algorithm was applied to the constraints on all bonds involving hydrogen atoms, and structural snapshots were stored every 2ps.

대표적인 저-에너지 TIP3 모델을 TLR4의 TIR 도메인에 도킹하여 원자 수준에서 분자간 상호 작용을 확인하였다(도 11A). TLR의 TIR 도메인의 BB loop가 어댑터 모집 부위인 것을 고려하여, 결합 부위를 예상하였다. 즉, BB loop 잔기를 중심으로 결합할 것으로 예상하였다. TIP3는 상보적인 표면 구조로 인하여, BB loop pocket에 완벽하게 맞았다(도 11B). 나아가, TIP3의 아미노산 잔기 K15 및 D19가 TIR 도메인의 R689 및 A720(BB loop)과 2개의 수소 결합을 형성함을 확인하였다(도 11C). TIP3의 잔기 V22 및 H24는 TIR 도메인에서 BB loop의 V716 및 I713과 소수성 상호 작용에 관여하는 것을 확인하였다. TIP3의 C23과 TIR 도메인의 C664 사이의 근접성 때문에, 분자간 이황화 결합이 있는 것으로 추정할 수 있다. 이러한 도킹 결과는 TIP3가 BB loop 부분 및 TIR 도메인 전체에 대해 강한 결합 친화도를 갖는다는 것을 나타낸다.A representative low-energy TIP3 model was docked to the TIR domain of TLR4 to confirm intermolecular interaction at the atomic level (FIG. 11A). Considering that the BB loop of the TIR domain of TLR is an adapter recruitment site, a binding site was predicted. That is, it was expected to bind mainly to the BB loop residue. TIP3 fits perfectly into the BB loop pocket due to the complementary surface structure (Fig. 11B). Furthermore, it was confirmed that amino acid residues K15 and D19 of TIP3 form two hydrogen bonds with R689 and A720 (BB loop) of the TIR domain (FIG. 11C). It was confirmed that residues V22 and H24 of TIP3 are involved in hydrophobic interaction with V716 and I713 of the BB loop in the TIR domain. Because of the proximity between C23 of TIP3 and C664 of the TIR domain, it can be assumed that there is an intermolecular disulfide bond. These docking results indicate that TIP3 has a strong binding affinity for both the BB loop portion and the TIR domain.
