Definitions
- the invention described herein relates generally to the composition of preparations for the targeting of membrane-associated antigen (Ag) to dendritic cells (DCs) in order to modulate immune responses, either for disease prevention or for therapeutic purposes. More particularly, the invention relates to a method of modifying Ag-containing membranes, to enable engraftment and/or incorporation of targeting molecules and immunomodulatory factors, allowing the modified membranes to be targeted to DCs in vivo and potently induce, or suppress, immune responses.
- Ag membrane-associated antigen
- DCs dendritic cells
- the invention relates to a composition that can be used to modify Ag-containing membrane structures, such as liposomes or plasma membrane vesicles (PMVs), to enable the membranes to be targeted effectively to DCs in vivo, thereby modulating immunity, and enabling them to be used either as vaccines or vaccine-like agents in immunotherapies to prevent or treat disease in humans and animals.
- Ag-containing membrane structures such as liposomes or plasma membrane vesicles (PMVs
- DCs Dendritic cells
- APCs antigen presenting cells
- DCs originate from progenitors in the bone marrow and migrate as immature cells to peripheral tissues where they internalise Ag and undergo a complex maturation process.
- Ag is internalised via a number of surface receptors, including the complement receptors (e.g., CDllc/CD18) and the endocytic receptors (e.g., DEC-205, DC-SIGN and Toll-like receptors).
- complement receptors e.g., CDllc/CD18
- endocytic receptors e.g., DEC-205, DC-SIGN and Toll-like receptors.
- immature DCs also may receive "danger signals", in the form of pathogen-related molecules such as bacterial cell wall lipopolysaccharide (LPS), or inflammatory stimuli via cytokines such as IFN- ⁇ .
- DCs then migrate to the secondary lymphoid organs, maturing to become competent APCs.
- Receptors such as CDl lc/CD18, DEC-205, DC-SIGN and Toll-like receptors play a crucial role in the process of Ag capture and presentation, and are expressed primarily on DCs. It is conceivable, therefore, that these receptors also could be used for targeting Ag directly to DC in vivo.
- fusion proteins composed of Ag and single chain antibodies (ScFvs) to DEC-205 have been shown to target to DCs in vivo, inducing T cell activation when co-administered with inflammatory stimulators such as anti-CD40 antibody. 9 ' 10

- Modification of the membranes or liposomes is achieved by the incorporation or attachment of metal chelating groups, thereby allowing engraftment of one or more targeting molecules possessing a metal affinity tag.
- the nature of the immune response induced by targeting Ag to DCs is critically dependent on the presence of specific immunomodulatory factors such as cytokines or "danger" signals, and there is no disclosure or suggestion in PCT/AU00/00397 of the membrane modification that is required, or the immunomodulatory factors that are needed, to elicit an appropriate immune response in vivo.

- LPS, IFN- ⁇ or GM- CSF within PMV and SL, thereby providing the means to simultaneously deliver both Ag and a danger signal to DCs.
- An examination of the ability of ScFv-engrafted PMV and SL containing Ag to induce DCs to initiate CTL responses revealed that, compared to control cells, T cells from animals immunised with ScFv-engrafted PMV or Ag bearing SL exhibit an increased ability, following in vitro restimulation, to lyse B16-OVA target cells in vitro (Fig. 5).
- mice that had been vaccinated with DEC-205-ScFv-engrafted PMV containing IFN- ⁇ after challenge with B16- OVA tumour cells subsequently did not show any signs of tumour development, indicating that the DC targeting vaccine has therapeutic activity.
- a particular interesting aspect of this study is that the apparent generation of CTL activity against the B16-OVA melanoma was not associated with tumour protection. This point is particularly evident with the SILNFEKL-SL vaccine that would be expected to generate only a CD8 + CTL response against OVA produced by the B16-OVA tumour cells.
- Eotaxin is a potent eosinophil chemokine and therefore, the findings are consistent with the recruitment of eosinophils into the tumour constituting an important component of the anti-tumour response.
- the modified PMV and SL system described herein offers a number of advantages over current strategies using DCs for tumour immunotherapy. Firstly, the system can deliver Ags directly to DCs in vivo, thus eliminating the need to isolate DCs from patients and to manipulate the cells ex vivo for use in immunotherapies. Secondly, a targeted or active liposome-mediated delivery of Ag to DC has the potential to deliver more Ag, and/or several different Ags, simultaneously, potentially stimulating a more effective immune response.
- NTA 3 -DTDA consisting of three nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) head groups covalently linked to two ditetradecylamine (DTDA) chains was synthesized essentially as described, but with additional steps to covalently couple a NTA group onto each carboxyl group of the NTA-DTDA, to produce (NTA) 3 -DTDA.
- NiSO 4 was used for all additions of Ni 2+ to buffers.
- Murine CD56 (clone 42.18, rat IgG2a) mAb was from the 6 th Human NK Cell Workshop and the murine CD3 mAb (clone 145-2C11, Armenian hamster IgG) was purchased from PharMingen (San Diego, California). Recombinant murine IFN- ⁇ and GM- CSF were supplied by PeproTech Inc (Rockey Hill, New Jersey).

- the L2 peptide (GHHPHGHHPH), a sequence of ten amino acids found in the plasma protein histidine-rich glycoprotein, was used routinely to engraft control PMV and SL since it binds to Ni-(NTA) 3 -DTDA with high avidity and can block its non-specific binding to cells.
- the peptide SILNFEKL-6H representing the immunodominant CTL epitope of OVA in H-2 mice (OVA residues 257- 264), with hexahistidine tag attached was used for peptide Ag delivery to DCs.

- lymph node cells were fixed in 10% formalin, then embedded in paraffin, and cut into sections; the sections were then adhered onto slides and de-waxed. Slides were blocked by incubation with PBS plus 20% goat serum (PBS-goat serum) for 30 min at room temperature, before incubating with mAb N418 to CDl lc in PBS-goat serum for 1 fir at room temperature.
- the slides were then washed extensively in water and stained with streptavidin-Rhodamine in PBS-goat serum. After further washing, the slides were analysed for fluorescein and Rhodamine fluorescence using a Radiance 2000 fluorescence confocal microscope (Bio-Rad, Richmond, California). Images were acquired by Kalman averaging of 30 successive laser scans, and processed using Bio-Rad Image software.
- Antigen presentation assays DCs were incubated with modified PMV or SL at 37 °C in complete medium for 4 hrs, and then washed to remove unbound PMV or SL, ⁇ -irradiated (5000 rad), and aliquoted in growth medium (2x10 4 cells/200 ⁇ l/well) into a 96-well flat-bottom plate. Syngeneic T cells were added (2 x 10 4 /well) and the cells co-cultured for 4 days, before assessing proliferation by measuring incorporation of [ 3 H]-thymidine. 14 The proportion of proliferating CD4 + and CD8 + T cells in Ag presentation assays was assessed by labelling the T cells with CFSE (5 ⁇ M) prior to co-culture with DCs as described.
- Cytotoxicity assays Ag-specific CTL assays were performed similar to those described. 34 Syngeneic C57BL6 mice were immunized intravenously (i.v.) with PBS (control), or ScFv-engrafted B16-OVA cell-derived PMV or SL bearing Ag (as indicated). At day 14 after immunization, spleens were removed and T lymphocytes (effector T cells) were isolated as above. The T cells were then suspended in complete growth medium and aliquoted into 24-well flat- bottom plates (ICN Biomedicals) at a concentration of lxl 0 5 cells/well and co-cultured with lxlO 5 ⁇ -irradiated (5000 rad) B16-OVA cells. After 5 days of co-culture, the cytolytic activity of the T cells was assessed in a standard Cr-release assay, as described.
- mice were immunized by three i.v. tail vein injections given weekly, with PBS (control), or either ScFv-engrafted B16-OVA cell-derived PMV (2x10 5 cell equivalents), or SL (- 0.16 ⁇ g total lipid) bearing associated Ag (-0.2 ⁇ g of OVA or -0.8 ng of SILNFEKL- 6H), each suspended in a 200 ⁇ l volume of PBS.
- PBS control
- ScFv-engrafted B16-OVA cell-derived PMV 2x10 5 cell equivalents
- SL - 0.16 ⁇ g total lipid bearing associated Ag (-0.2 ⁇ g of OVA or -0.8 ng of SILNFEKL- 6H)
- Example 1 Liposomes can be used to target tumour antigens to DC both in vitro and in vivo Two types of liposome preparations were used to target tumour Ags to DCs (see Figure 1 below). The first entailed the use of a crude preparation of tumour cell-derived PMV modified by engraftment of ScFv targeting DC, and the second was a preparation of Ag-containing stealth liposomes also engrafted with DC targeting ScFv.
- Stealth liposomes are synthetic lipid structures which have been sterically stabilised by the inclusion of lipids such as PE-PEG 20 oo, and, by virtue of their ability to escape non-specific elimination by the reticulo-endothelial system, can remain in the blood circulation for days following their intravenous administration.
- lipids such as PE-PEG 20 oo
- NTA-DTDA chelator lipid NTA-DTDA
- B16-OVA highly metastatic melanoma cell line
- This line secretes low levels of OVA which can be used as a surrogate secreted tumour-specific Ag (Ref. 17), enabling OVA-specific immune responses to be assessed.
- the B16-OVA tumour line is largely resistant to OVA-specific CTLs unless high avidity CTLs are used.
- 17 PMV (B16-OVA-derived) could be modified to contain incorporated (NTA) 3 -DTDA by fusion with synthetic liposomes composed of POPC, (NTA) 3 -DTDA, and PC-BODIPY (molar ratio 96:2:2).
- (NTA) 3 -DTDA-containing SLs were produced from an appropriate mixture of lipids: POPC, PE-PEG 20 oo, (NTA) 3 -DTDA, and PC-BODIPY (molar ratio 96:2:1:1). SLs preparations could be made to contain OVA, or the OVA CTL epitope, SIINFEKL.
- the (NTA) 3 -DTDA-containing PMV and SLs were engrafted with either a control hexahistidine- containing molecule (L2 peptide) or a hexahistidine-tagged ScFv against either CDl lc or DEC-205.
- modified membranes also contain PC-BODIPY as a fluorescent tracer, their targeting to DCs can be assessed by flow cytometry.
- LTC-DC long term culture DC
- PMV- L2 control-modified PMV
- pre-incubation of DCs with an isotype-matched control mAb did not significantly reduce binding of either CDl Ic-ScFv- or DEC-205 -ScFv-engrafted PMV or SLs to DC, but their pre-incubation with either the anti-CDl lc mAb N418 or the anti-DEC-205 mAb NLDC145, inhibited binding of the respective ScFv-engrafted SL or PMV by approx. 90% (not shown). This demonstrates that the binding is specific for the engrafted ScFv.
- mice subcutaneously into the hind footpad with fluorescein-labelled PMV engrafted with ScFv, and then examined cells isolated from the draining popliteal lymph node for fluorescein fluorescence by flow cytometry, or sections of the draining lymph node by confocal scanning laser microscopy, after PE staining each with a CDl lc mAb as a DC marker.
- mice with L2-, CDl lc-ScFv or DEC-205-ScFv-engrafted PMV results in a high level of CDl lc-specific-fluorescence in a relatively small population (2-2.5%o) of lymph node cells, thus identifying these as DCs, both by FACS analysis and fluorescence microscopy (Fig. 3A and B, panels i, iii and v).
- Example 2 Liposome-mediated targeting of tumour antigens to dendritic cells induces potent tumour-specific immunity both in vitro and in vivo
- PMV and SL targeted to DCs can induce functional Ag presentation to T cells
- Splenic DCs isolated from C57BL/6 mice were pulsed separately with B16-OVA-PMV, SL bearing SILNFEKL-6H, or SL bearing OVA, engrafted with either a control histidine-tagged peptide (L2) or with ScFv against CDllc and DEC-205.
- the cells were co- cultured with purified syngeneic T cells and then pulsed with [ 3 H]-thymidine to assess the rate of T cell proliferation.
- DCs exposed to PMV or SL (SILNFEKL-6H or OVA bearing) engrafted with CDllc-ScFv induced substantially higher levels of T cell proliferation.
- Even greater rates of proliferation were seen when the T cells were co-cultured with DC exposed to PMV or SL engrafted with a DEC-205 ScFv (Fig. 4A).
- Ag-bearing PMV and SL engrafted with ScFv therefore, can effectively deliver Ag to DCs and stimulate T cell proliferation.
- T cells cultured with DCs pulsed with DEC-205 -engrafted SL encapsulating intact OVA contained fewer proliferating CD8 T cells ( ⁇ 70%>) and a significantly higher proportion ⁇ 30%> of CD4 + T cells compared with the SIINFEKL cultures (Fig. 4B), consistent with OVA containing both CD4 + and CD8 + T cell epitopes.
- the relative proportions of proliferating CD4 + and CD8 + T cells in co-cultures with DCs pulsed with CDl Ic-ScFv targeted Ags revealed a pattern similar to DC pulsed with DEC-205-ScFv targeted Ag (not shown).
- Example 3 Liposome-based vaccines that target DC induce protective immunity against tumours
- Mice immunised with the various B16-OVA preparations were examined for their ability to resist an i.v. challenge of B16-OVA tumour cells, with lung metastases being quantified 16 days following tumour cell injection.
- a much lower number of metastases was observed in mice immunised with PMV or OVA-bearing SL engrafted with ScFv and containing either LPS or IFN- ⁇ (Fig. 6). If the PMV or OVA- bearing SL were not engrafted with a ScFv and did not contain LPS or IFN- ⁇ little protection to tumour cell challenge was detected.
- Example 4 Enhancing immunity to an infectious agent by targeting its associated antigens to dendritic cells
- BCG is a mycobacterium containing many of the antigens also present in the pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculi which is the cause of tuberculosis in humans.
- BCG mycobacteria were used instead of
- BCG mycobacteria were grown in culture, heat-killed, and labelled [by reacting with a tracer 6-(fluoresein-5(and-6)-carboxamido)hexanoic acid succinimidyl ester] to allow tracking, before modifying to permit targeting to DCs.
- the heat-killed BCG was mixed with an appropriate amount of Ni-(NTA) -DTDA, and briefly sonicated to permit incorporation of the chelator lipid into the BCG membrane vesicles containing the BCG antigens.
- mice were vaccinated intravenously with the engrafted BCG preparations using essentially the same vaccination regime as in Example 1 above. After 2-4 weeks the mice were sacrificed, their spleens removed for isolation of T cells and to assay for BCG-specific interferon- ⁇ production. The results of an Elispot assay of interferon- ⁇ production were obtained by culturing the T cells isolated from the spleens of the mice in the presence of heat-killed BCG for a period of three days before assaying the cultures for interferon- ⁇ -producing cells.
- the modified PMVs and liposomes of the invention can also be used to target antigens from an infectious agent to DCs in vivo, to induce or enhance immunity to the agent.
