Definitions
- the invention relates generally to methods for modulating the immune system of mammals and more particularly to methods of modulating the immune system using compositions comprising histamine derivatives.
- Histamine is a small molecule that has been shown to have a significant role in the immune response process in mammals. However, its ubiquitous effects on many cells that have receptors for histamine limits its possible immunotherapeutic use. Histamine derivatives that are tissue directed or effect specific would significantly aid in determining the role of histamine in immune modulation and produce valuable immunotherapeutics.
- Histamine can substantially modulate models of immune responses in mammals, particularly models of delayed hypersensitivity and T and B cell functions. Histamine is synthesized during different phases of response to antigen and is able directly or indirectly to effect further responses to antigen. It is possible that the concentration of histamine in tissue during inflammation and immune response can modify the fanction of a number of lymphoid cells. Although these effects may be substantial, the direct effect on single cell types in a mixture of cells cannot be determined unless the agonists are effect or cell specific. Ubiquitous effects of agonists on all cells that have receptors for histamine would limit any
- Histamine is an autacoid as are catecholamines, prostaglandins and some peptides. e.g., bradykinin and probably lymphokines.
- Autacoids differ from hormones in that they are made at their local sites of action and they can be made in a variety of tissues. Autacoids play an important role in mediating inflammation. During inflammation, certain events may occur which include: protein denaturation. lowering of local pH, release of "new peptides" and lysosomal enzymes, and the like.
- Autacoids affect natural suppressor cells, T cell subsets and B cells during various stages of immunity. Receptors for autacoids are non-randomly distributed
- Precursor B cells do not appear to have histamine and catecholamine receptors, while B cells committed to produce antibodies do.
- T suppressor (T s cells modulate the
- T helper T h
- T cytolitic T c
- Mitogens alter responsiveness of these cells to histamine.
- Some lymphocytes that respond to histamine have both H 1 and H 2 receptors on them while others have only H 2 receptors. In some lymphocytes the H 2 receptors seem to modify the responses to H 1 agonism, in others there is no such interplay.
- biologic response is inhibitory (e.g., reduced release of antibody from B cells: inhibition of lymphokine release or lysis of target cells by T effector cells and inhibition of release of histamine from mast cells); in others the response enhances immune function (e.g., enhanced suppression by natural suppressor and T s cells or T helper (T h ) cell proliferation.
- inhibitory e.g., reduced release of antibody from B cells: inhibition of lymphokine release or lysis of target cells by T effector cells and inhibition of release of histamine from mast cells
- the response enhances immune function (e.g., enhanced suppression by natural suppressor and T s cells or T helper (T h ) cell proliferation.
- autacoids seem to be enhancing selected early events in immune response (e.g., enhanced suppressor function) while inhibiting later phases of phenotypic
- manifestations e.g., release of lymphokines or antibodies of immunity.
- the natural suppressor cells appear briefly during the early maturation of lymphoid tissue but can be induced in adults by total lymphoid irradiation.
- the cells have the unique feature of inhibiting the antigen specific cytolytic arm of alloreactive immune response but leave the antigen-specific suppressive arm intact.
- alloreactions in the regulatory milieu of natural suppressor (NS) cells generate large numbers of antigen-specific suppressor cells that in turn maintain tolerance in vivo.
- the natural suppressor cells may play an important role in preventing the development of host versus graft and graft versus host diseases in allogenic bone marrow chimeras, and in immune tolerances in the neonatal and total lymphoid irradiated (TLI) mice.
- Histamine activates human T s cells and enhances the suppressive ability of murine NS cells in vitro. See, Khan et al., J. Immunol. (1985) 134:4100 and Sansoni et al., J. Clin. Invest. (1985) 75:650. After pretreatment of both human T s cells

- the invention also provides methods of treating sensitivity to a particular antigen in an individual by administering to the individual a therapeutically effective amount of a composition comprising at least one histamine derivative having binding specificity for at least one histamine receptor, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or diluent.

- Administration of these peptides may tolerize or anergize appropriate T cell subpopulations such that they become unresponsive to the protein allergen or other antigen and do not participate in stimulating an immune response upon such exposure.
- administration of a peptide comprising at least one T cell epitope of a protein allergen may modify the lymphokine secretion profile as compared with exposure to the naturally-occurring protein allergen or portion thereof (e.g., result in a decrease of IL-4 and/or an increase in IL-2).
- T cell subpopulations which normally participate in the response to the allergen such that these T cells are drawn away from the site(s) of normal exposure to the allergen (e.g., nasal mucosa, skin, and lung) towards the site(s) of therapeutic administration of the peptide.
- This redistribution of T cell subpopulations may ameliorate or reduce the ability of an individual's immune system to stimulate the usual immune response at the site of normal exposure to the allergen, resulting in a diminution in allergic symptoms.
- peptides When peptides are derived from protein allergens, they can comprise at least one. and preferably at least two T cell epitopes of a protein allergen such as a protein allergen selected from the group consisting of: a protein allergen of the genus
- Dermatophagoides a protein allergen of the genus Felis; a protein allergen of the genus Ambrosia; a protein allergen of the genus Lolium; a protein allergen of the genus Cryptomeria: a protein allergen of the genus Alternaria: a protein allergen of the genus Alder; a protein allergen of the genus Betula; a protein allergen of the genus Quercus; a protein allergen of the genus Olea; a protein allergen of the genus Artemisia; a protein allergen of the genus Plantago; a protein allergen of the genus Parietaria; a protein allergen of the genus Canine; a protein allergen of the genus Blattella; a protein allergen of the genus Apis; and a protein allergen of the genus Periplaneta.
- Preferred peptides are derived from protein allergens selected from the group consisting of: Der p I; Der p II; Der f I; Der f II; Amb a 1.1; Amh a I.2; Amb a I.3: Amb a I.4: Amb a II: Lol p I: Lol p IX: Cry j I: Cry j II; and Fel d I.
- Peptides useful in methods of the invention can be derived from protein antigens other than protein allergens where enhancement or depression of an antigen specific immune response is desired.
- peptides having human T cell stimulating activity of a known autoantigen involved in the pathogenesis of an autoimmune disease or peptides comprising at least one T cell epitope of a known autoantigen can be administered to decrease the antibody response to the autoantigen, to interfere with efficacy and/or decrease immune complex related side effects.
- peptides derived from the autoantigen having human T cell stimulating activity could be defined by standard T cell biology techniques, or if desired, precise T cell epitopes can be defined by fine mapping techniques and a peptide comprising at least one T cell epitope produced.
- Peptides which stimulate T cells and do not have undesired properties of the autoantigen e.g., do not bind autoantibodies in a substantial percentage of individuals sensitive to the autoantigen
- Autoantigens useful in methods of the present invention include insulin, glutamic acid decarboxylase (64K), PM-1 and carboxypeptidase in diabetes; myelin basic protein in multiple sclerosis; rh factor in erythroblastosis fetalis; acetylcholine receptors in myasthenia gravis; thyroid receptors in Graves' Disease; basement membrane proteins in Good Pasture's syndrome; and thyroid proteins in thyroiditis.
- the present invention also provides methods of treating sensitivity in an individual to an antigen, such as a protein allergen or autoantigen whereby a therapeutically effective amount of a therapeutic composition comprising a histamine derivative and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or diluent is administered to an individual sensitive to the antigen.
- an antigen such as a protein allergen or autoantigen
- a therapeutically effective amount of a therapeutic composition comprising a histamine derivative and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or diluent is administered to an individual sensitive to the antigen.
- administration of such a therapeutic composition to an individual results in inhibition of at least a portion of an antigen specific antibody response for up to 150 days after
- composition is administered to an individual at least once a year and preferably up to four times a year.
- the antigen, or an immunogenic portion thereof is optionally administered to the individual to specifically inhibit the antigen specific immune response by the individual to the antigen or immunogenic portion thereof.
- a peptide having T cell stimulating activity and derived from the antigen can be administered to the individual to desensitize the individual to the antigen.
- the peptide comprises at least one T cell epitope of the antigen.
- Such peptides are administered to individuals sensitive to an allergen or other protein antigen from which the peptide is derived, at dosages and for lengths of time effective to reduce sensitivity of the individual to the allergen or other antigen.
- Peptides having T cell stimulating activity can be administered in the form of a therapeutic composition including a physiologically acceptable vehicle.
- the peptide can be administered in combination with an appropriate diluent, a carrier, and/or an adjuvant, where appropriate.
- Pharmaceutically acceptable diluents include saline and aqueous buffer solutions.
- Pharmaceutically acceptable carriers include polyethylene glycol (Wie et al., International Archiyes of Allergy and Applied Immunology 64: 84-99 (1981)) and liposomes (Strejan et al., Journal of Neuroimmunology 7: 27 (1984)).
- Pharmaceutically acceptable adjuvants include alum.
- Such compositions will generally be administered by injection, oral administration (e.g., as in the form of a circule), inhalation, transdermal application or rectal administration.
- Fel d I protein was decolorized by loading it on a Phenyl-Sepharose column (Pharmacia) with 4N NaCl, then eluted with 2M and 1M NaCl. Decolorized Fel d I protein was recovered by dialysing the 2M and 1M salt elutes against distilled water and lyophilized.
- An alternative way to decolonization was to pass the house dust extract through a Sephacryl 200 column (Pharmacia) before the affinity purification.
- mice Incubate at room temperature for 30 minutes. Split up the sample into eppendorf tubes and spin in an eppifuge (15,000rpm) for 10 minutes. Pour supernatant into tubes so that it can be tested for the presence of antigen to be certain that it bound. Resuspend the pellet in desired volume of PBS in order to inject mice. (See:
- Coat Costar EIA plates (#3590) with 1 ⁇ g/ml Fel d I in PBS 50 ⁇ l/well overnight at 4o C. Wash plates with 1 x PBS (repeat 3 times). Block with 1% BSA (essentially globulin free) in PBS-Tween (PBS-T), 100 ⁇ l/well, 1 hour at room temperature. Add test serum diluted in (PBS-T), 100 ⁇ l/well, for 1 hour at room temperature. Wash plates with 1 X PBS-T 3 times. Add Goat anti-mouse IgG 1/5000 diluted in PBS-T, 100 ⁇ l/well, for 1 hour at room temperature. Wash plates with 1 X PBS-T 3 times.
- mice were given two treatments of Compound 1 intraperitoneally one day before antigen treatment (day -1) and two days following antigen treatment (day+2).
- the doses of Compound 1 were eimer 100mg/kg, 50 mg/kg, or saline control in 100 ⁇ l PBS.
- the three groups of mice were injected with 10 ⁇ g Fel d I Alum (obtained as described above) intraperitoneally.
- mice The priming and bleeding schedule for these three groups of mice are as follows:
- mice After the first immunization described above the mice were bled 21 days later for a 1° response. The mice were boosted and then 14 days later the mice were bled for a 2° response and bled again in another 14 days without an intervening antigen injection for a 2°B response. This boost schedule (i.e., 2o, 2oB, 3o, 3oB) was repeated until the mice were bled for the 5oB. Each time the mice were boosted they receive a day-1 & day+2 dose of Compound 1 and on day 0 they are injected with 10 ⁇ g Fel d I Alum. All the sera was tested as described above in an Elisa for IgG & IgE antibody response to Fel d I.
- mice There was some toxicity seen in the mice that received 100mg/kg Compound 1 on day-1 and day+2. In that group of mice 2 out of 6 mice died.
- mice immunized with 100 mg/kg of Compound 1 had no IgG or IgE response to Fel d I compared to the saline control mice where there was a significant IgG response and an average IgE response to Fel d.
- the mice that received 50 mg/kg of Compound 1 had low IgG & IgE response to Fel d I compared to the saline control mice.
- mice were given either 50 mg/kg in 100 ⁇ l PBS of Compound 1 or saline one day before antigen immunization and two days after antigen immunization in the first priming only.
- the immunization and bleeding schedule was the same as priming #34, however the drug was not given in subsequent boost only 10 ⁇ g Fel d I alum on day 0.
- mice immunized with 50 mg/kg of Compound 1 in the 1o had very good IgG response to Fel d I compared to the saline control group. There appears to have been a delay in the response to Fel d I response in the Compound 1 treated group. The IgE specific Fel d I response did not appear to differ significantly between the two groups (Fig. 4).
- a lesser dose of Compound 1 was administered three groups of mice.
- the groups of mice were given two treatments of Compound 1 intraperitoneally one day before antigen treatment (day-1) & two days following antigen treatment (day+2).
- the doses of Compound 1 were either 50 mg/kg, 5 mg/kg, 0.5 mg/kg in 100 ⁇ l of PBS, or a saline control.
- the four groups of mice were injected with 10 ⁇ g Fel d I alum intraperitoneally. The immunization and bleeding schedule was followed as described in priming #34.
- Fig. 5 shows that mice given 50 mg/kg of Compound 1 had a decreased IgG specific Fel d I response compared to the saline control. In the groups that received 5 mg/kg or 0.5 mg/kg of Compound 1 there was not a significant difference in IgG specific Fel d I response compared to the saline control. As shown in Fig. 6, the IgE response to Fel d I appeared to be low in all the groups.
- mice were pre-primed with 10 ⁇ g Fel d I Alum and then bled 21 days after immunization.
- the two groups of mice were either given 50 mg/kg of Compound 1 or saline intraperitoneally one day before antigen immunization (day-1) and two days following antigen immunization (day+2).
- the antigen immunization was given on day 0 witii 10 ⁇ g Fel d I alum intraperitoneally.
- the two weeks later the mice were bled and then in another 2 weeks (without boosting) they were bled again.
- the two groups of mice were then boosted only with 10 ⁇ g Fel d I alum in each of the scheduled immunizations as described in priming #34.
- Figs.7 and 8 demonstrate that mice that received drug only in the 2o boost have a much lower IgG & IgE specific Fel d I response than the mice that received saline in the 2o only. It appears as though the mice did not have a high response to Fel d I before giving them a dose of Compound 1. Thus, it is unclear whether there was a decrease in the Fel d I specific response or whether there was a decrease and delayed IgG Fel d I response, as shown in priming #37. TABLE 4
- mice immunized with 100 mg/kg of Compound 1 have no IgG or IgE response to Fel d I compared to the saline control mice where there is good IgG response and average IgE response to Fel d I.
- the mice that received 75 mg/kg and 50 mg/kg of Compound 1 have low IgG response to Fel d I compared to the saline control mice.
- a total IgG assay (Fig. 11) was performed to determine whether there was a different-amount of IgG in the drug treated groups compared to the saline control groups. There was no change in total IgG in the mice that received 100 mg/kg, 75 mg/kg, and 50 mg/kg compared to die saline control group in the early bleed.
- Fel d I has a mitogenic contaminant which causes an increase in immunoglobulin levels. The mitogenic effect appears to be decreased by the histamine congener.
- mice were given two treatments of Compound 1 intraperitoneally one day before antigen treatment (day-1) and two days following antigen treatment (day+2).
- the doses of Compound 1 were either 100 mg/kg, 50 mg/kg, in 100 ⁇ l of PBS or saline control.
- day 0 the three groups of mice were injected with 50 ⁇ g ovalbumin alum intraperitoneally.
- mice immunized with 100 mg/kg of Compound 1 have low IgG responses to ovalbumin compared to the saline control mice where there is a good IgG response to ovalbumin. It appears that mice which received 50 mg/kg of Compound 1 have a similar IgG response to ovalbumin as the saline control group indicating no decrease in antibody response. The IgE response to ovalbumin appears to be similar in all three groups (Fig. 12). TABLE 7
- Figs. 13 and 14 show that administration of 10 mg/kg Compound 1 for 9 days s.c. (a total of 90 mg/kg) shows a decrease in antibody response to Fel d I compared to the saline control and to the group that was given 10 mg/kg Compound 1 for 9 days i.p.
- Native Fel d I protein was purified from an extract of house dust as described by Chapman et al. Briefly, house dust (from vacuum containers used in homes with multiple cats) was extracted with PBS, then lyophilized and redissolved in water. The extract was applied to a column coupled with anti-Fel d I monoclonal antibody (hybridomas 6F9 and 1G4 were both provided by M. Chapman). The Fel d I was eluted from the column with 100 mM glycine pH 2.5 and was neutralized. Direct Binding ELISA
- Fel d I was coated onto Immulon 2 (Dynatech, Chantilly, VA) 96-well plates by incubation of 50 ⁇ l/well of 2 ⁇ g/ml Fel d I in PBS overnight at 4°C. The wells were incubated with 0.5% gelatin in PBS at 37°C for one hour.
- H-Mb ELISA is carried out similarly, using isotype specific polyclonal reagents.
- Antigen bound IgE was detected similarly, but using biotinylated EM95-1, a rat monoclonaTantibody specific for mouse IgE. Biotinylated goat anti-rat IgG (Dirkegaard and Perry) was used as an added signal amplification step in the IgE ELISA.
- Antigen bound IgM was detected similarly, but using anti-mouse IgM.
- the inguinal, paraaortic, and popliteal lymph nodes were removed from the animals seven days after antigen challenge.
- the cells from these organs were suspended by being forced through a stainless steel mesh with a glass pestal.
- the cells were washed two times in RPMI 1640 with 1% FCS before being cultured. All cells were cultured at 37°C in 5% CO 2 in RPMI-1640 with 10% FCS (#F4884,
- helper T cell subsets to augment different antibody isotypes.
- Murine TH 1 cells appear to stimulate the production of IgG2 while TH2 cells stimulate the production of IgG1 and IgE.
- histamine congeners can specifically effect different populations of helper T cell functions. Two different histamine congeners (Compound 1 and
- Compound 3 have been compared for their ability to effect the antibody response to
- Horse myoglobin H-Mb.
- the formula for Compound 1 was given previously in
- the IgM response specific for H-Mb was assayed on day 7 following an antigen priming with a day 0 and day 2 drug treatment (Fig. 21). There was no detectable effect of 35 mg/Kg histamine congener on the antigen specific IgM made in response to the H-Mb priming.
- mice were treated with 35 mg/Kg histamine congener on day (-1) and day 2. These mice received H-Mb on day 0 and day 21. Sera (day 33) from these mice were assayed for H-Mb specific IgG.
- Fig. 15 demonstrates the ability of Compound 1 and Compound 3 to inhibit the production of H-Mb specific IgG. The same bleeds were assayed for H-Mb specific IgG2a (Fig. 16) and IgG2b
- Compound 1 does not effect the H-Mb specific IgG2a or IgG2b.
- the decrease in IgG found after Compound 1 treatment may reflect an effect on IgGl.
- the ability of Compound 1 to decrease IgG and IgE responses to Fel d I as discussed in Examples 1-6 suggests that its target may be the TH2 pathway.
- IDM Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus
- Type I Diabetes Mellitus is an autoimmune disease and involves lymphocyte dependent inflammatory destruction of the insulin-producing beta cells in pancreatic islets of Langerhans. T lymphocytes have been implicated in the destruction of the pancreatic cells and autoantibody production is associated with the development of insulitis, the inflammatory lesion of IDDM.
- a strain of mouse non obese diabetic mice -- NOD mice
- NOD mice non obese diabetic mice
- NOD mice non obese diabetic mice
- Many experiments using immunosuppressive drugs that showed efficacy in NOD mice predicted the value of immunosupprcssives in people susceptible to type I diabetes.
- the imunosuppressives available for the treatment of Type I disease in susceptible patients are efficacious but only during the time they are given. Those agents, with the possible exception of anti-CD4 monoclonal antibody, are too toxic to give continuously for prolonged periods.
- Compound 3 could influence the course of the disease because Compound 3 is capable of inhibiting T Cell proliferation to antigen. It should thus be able to limit a T cell-mediated cytoltic event.
- hyperglycemia was most pronounced in the groups treated with Compound 3 or 1 plus 3. It is quite likely that the apparent effects of Compound 1 plus 3 is caused by the additive H2 effects of the two drugs.
- Fig. 20 shows the absence of any disease in the group treated with compounds 1 plus 3 up to day 140.
- Examples 1-11 show that histamine congeners are potent immunosuppressants and each has a different potential mechanism of
- Compound 1 suppresses T cell dependent IgE, IgG 1 (but not IgM, IgG2a or IgG2b) antibody responses. In various antigenic responses,
- Compound 3 supresses IgG1, IgG2a and IgG2b but not IgM responses. The effects of Compound 3 on IgE will be tested. Only Compound 3 appears to directly suppress T cell proliferation to specific antigen at the doses tested. The suppression of antibody production is transferable and also can be seen after the response to the antigen is established.
- H1 and H2 receptor effects may be needed and cooperative in the effects on the NOD mouse or the apparent cooperation may simply be additive H2 effects contributed separately by the two drugs; dose dependence and blocking effects of H1 or H2 blockers will be studied to determine the pharmacologic mechanism by which the experiments work; the cellular mechanism by which the autacoids work are not established byt the selectivity of the effects on isotypes and actions of T cell proliferation suggest the target for Compound 3 could be a TH 1 cell.
