Definitions
- the invention relates to the prevention and treatment of atherosclerosis, atherosclerosis risk diseases and atherosclerosis sequelae.
- Atherosclerotic secondary diseases such as peripheral arterial occlusive disease, coronary heart disease and apoplectic cerebral insult, continue to be among the leading causes of death in the United States, Europe and much of Asia.
- the lipid deposits in the arterial wall were changes due to blood lipids, which according to his consideration arise by transduction of the lipids and complex formation with acid mucopolysaccharides.
- This "injury" of the arteries he explained the accumulation of lipids and the development of atherosclerotic lesions in the intima and medial of the arteries.Today's generally accepted state of knowledge is that developed by Ross in 1973 and modified in 1986 and 1993.
- endothelial damaging factors are, for example, elevated and modified LDL, Lp (a), arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus and hyperhomocysteinemia. Since the endothelium is not a rigid, but rather an extremely dynamic barrier, in the course of endothelial dysfunction, in addition to a permeability increase for lipoproteins, there are a large number of molecular changes that affect the interaction of monocytes, T lymphocytes and endothelial cells significantly influence be ⁇ .
- endothelial adhesion molecules of the E-, L- and P-selectin type, integrins, ICAM-I, VCAM-I and platelet-endothelial-cell-adhaesionmolecule-1 leads to the lumen attachment of monocytes and T-lymphocytes.
- the subsequent migration of the leukocytes via the endothelium is mediated by MCP-1, interleukin-8, PDGF, M-CSF and osteopontin.
- MCP-1 interleukin-8
- PDGF vascular endothelial growth factor
- M-CSF osteopontin
- LDLs are low-density lipoproteins and are caused by catabolic effects of lipolytic enzymes from triglyceride-rich VLDL particles.
- LDL moreover acts chemotactically on monocytes and is capable of increasing the expression of MCSF and MCP-1 of endothelial cells via gene amplification.
- HDL is capable of resuming cholesterol esters of loaded macrophages with the formation of apolipoprotein E with the formation of so-called HDLc complexes.
- Activated macrophages can present antigens via HLA-DR, thereby activating CD4 and CD8 lymphocytes, which, in turn, stimulate the secretion of cytokines, such as IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha, and thereby contribute to the enhancement of the inflammatory response.
- cytokines such as IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha
- the advanced and complicated lesion develops in the course, which is characterized morphologically by a necrosis nucleus, cell detritus and a lumen-side collagen-rich fibrinous cap. If the number of cells and the proportion of lipids increases continuously, endothelial lacerations and exposure of surfaces having thrombotic properties occur. The attachment and activation of platelets at these tears results in a release of granules which contain cytokines, growth factors and thrombin. Proteolytic enzymes of the macrophages are responsible for the thinning of the fibrinous cap, which ultimately leads to rupture of the plaque with consecutive thrombosis and stenosis of the vessel, and acute ischemia of the end stream.
- a disease which starts with an excessive increase in total and LDL cholesterol is familial hypercholesterolemia. It is one of the most common monogenic inherited metabolic diseases. The moderate heterozygous form occurs with a frequency of 1: 500, the homozygous form with 1: 1 million significantly less.
- the causes of familial hypercholesterolemia are mutations in the LDL receptor gene on the short arm of chromosome 19. These mutations can be deletions, insertions or point mutations.
- the characteristic finding of the lipoproteins in familial hypercholesterolemia is an increase in the total and LDL cholesterol at mostly normal triglyceride and VLDL concentrations.
- the HDL is often humiliated.
- the total echo is increased by two to three times in the heterozygous form and by five to six times in the homozygous form.
- familial hyperchoesteremia is manifested by early coronary sclerosis.
- the first symptoms of CHD occur between the ages of 30 and 40, and in women, on average, only 10 years later. 50% of the affected men die before the age of 50 from the consequences of their coronary sclerosis.
- Decreased HDL concentrations are responsible for the rapid progression of atherosclerosis in addition to the massive increase in LDL levels. Also on extracardiac vessels, such as the aorta, the carotids and peripheral arteries, can Atherosclerotic changes manifest. In the ho- mozygous form of the disease, the coronary artery develops already in early childhood. The first myocardial infarction often occurs before the age of 10 and those affected usually die before the age of 20. The development of xanthomas depends on the level of serum cholesterol and the duration of the disease. About 75% of heterozygous people over 20 years of age have tendinous xanthomas. Homozygotes have almost 100% skin and tendon xanthomas.
- Lipid deposits may also occur on the eyelid and in the cornea (xanthelasma, Arcus lipoides). However, they are not a specific sign of hypercholesterolemia since they are also found in normal cholesterol levels. In addition, acute arthritids and tendosynovitides frequently occur in FH.
- the individual lipoproteins differ in terms of their size and density, since they contain different amounts of lipids and proteins, so-called apoproteins. The density increases with increasing protein and decreasing lipid content. Due to their different density, they can be separated by ultrafiltration into different fractions.
- the lipoproteins with a high atherogenic potential include, in particular, the LDL, the Lp (a) and the VLDL.
- At the core are esterified cholesterol molecules.
- LDL LDL cholesterol
- apoprotein E is found on the surface of the LDL particles.
- the function of LDL is to transport cholesterol to peripheral tissues, where it, through which apoprotein B-100 mediates, is taken up into the cells via the LDL receptor.
- LDL cholesterol levels above 160 mg / dl represent a high cardiovascular risk.
- the lipoprotein (a) (Lp (a)) has a density of 1.05-1.12 g / ml and is similar in composition to LDL
- the protein portion consists of the apoprotein (a) which is characteristic for the Lp (a) .
- the physiology and function of the Lp (a) are still very poorly understood high sequence homology to plasminogen, it is believed that Lp (a) promotes both the formation of thrombi at atherosclerotic plaques and has an atherogenic effect.Lp (a) is found in atherosclerotic lesions together with apoprotein B.
- Lp (a) is an independent risk factor for CHD Values between 15 - 35 mg / dl apply.
- Lp (a) can not be influenced dietary or medicinal up to now. Therapeutic measures are therefore limited to the reduction of other risk factors.
- a decrease in LDL cholesterol appears to lower the cardiovascular risk of Lp (a).
- Significant pathophysiological significance in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis moreover possess coagulation factors.
- Epidemiological findings indicate a correlation between the fibrinogen concentration in plasma and the development of coronary heart disease and, above all, myocardial infarction.
- Increased fibrinogen levels (> 300 mg / dl) proved to be an independent indicator in this context and a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases.
- high concentrations of tissue plasminogen activator inhibitor tPA-I are associated with the onset of CHD.
- the relationship between hypertriglyceridemia and coronary risk varies depending on the cause of blood fat elevation.
- triglycerides are considered an independent risk factor, it is undisputed that they play an important role in the pathogenesis of coronary heart disease. The incidence of disease is highest in patients who have a high LDL cholesterol and a high triglyceride level.
- CETP cholinester transfer protein
- CETP polypeptide inhibitor is derived from apolipoprotein CI from various sources, in particular N-terminal fragments up to amino acid 36 identified as CETP inhibitors.
- CETP binding peptide which is capable of inhibiting the activity of CETP in a subject.
- the CETP-inhibitory protein comprises an N-terminal fragment of the porcine apolipo-protein C-III.
- peptides which are obtained by the induction of a CETP-specific immune response for the treatment and prevention of cardiovascular diseases, such as e.g. Atherosclerosis, can be used.
- These peptides include a T-helper cell epitope that is not derived from CETP and at least one B-cell epitope derived from and directly derived from CETP.
- the T helper cell epitope is preferably derived from the tetanus toxoid and is covalently bound to at least one B cell epitope of CETP.
- the problem with the CETi-I vaccine is that it uses a body antigen.
- the human immune system is tole ⁇ rant against endogenous structures, since it is vital for the vast majority of the body's own molecules, unlike CETP, that no autoantibodies are formed. Thus, it was the task of the CETi-I vaccine to break the body's own tolerance, which obviously was not sufficient for him.
- an antigen for an anti-CETP vaccine which is selected to be considered foreign by the immune system and therefore need not break any self-tolerance.
- the present invention therefore provides a CETP mimotope for these purposes.
- the CETP mimotopes according to the present invention are preferably antigenic polypeptides which are completely different in their amino acid sequence from the amino acid sequence of CETP or fragments of CETP.
- the mimotope according to the invention may comprise one or more non-natural amino acids (ie not from the "classic" amino acids) or may be composed entirely of such non-naturally occurring amino acids
- Inducible antigens may be composed of D- or L-amino acids or combinations of DL-amino acids, and optionally modified by further modifications, ring-closures or derivatizations
- Suitable antigens inducing anti-CETP antibodies can be made available from peptide libraries
- these peptides are at least 5 amino acids long, more preferably at least 8 amino acids, with preferred lengths up to 11, preferably up to 14 or 20 amino acids can extend.
- even longer peptides can readily be used as anti-CETP antibody-inducing antigens
- CETP mimotopes ie anti-CETP anti-body-inducing antigens
- phage libraries peptide libraries, e.g. produced by combinatorial chemistry or obtained by means of high throughput screening techniques for a wide variety of structures. Display: A Laboratory Manual by Carlos F. Barbas (Editor), et al; Willat's WG, Phage display: practicalities and prospects. Plant Mol Biol. 2002 Dec; 50 (6): 837-54 (http: //www.microcollections .de / showpublications .php #).

- these peptides are expressed in the library mentioned in individualized i. provided in isolated form, in particular immobilized on a solid surface, such as e.g. with MULTIPIN TM peptide technology.
- the library may also be provided as a peptide mixture, and the antibody-peptide complexes may be isolated after anti-body binding.
- the antibody may be immobilized, and the peptide library (in suspenion or solution) is then contacted with the immobilized antibodies.
- the screening antibodies (or the members of the peptide library) comprise a suitable marker which makes it possible to detect or isolate the antibody or the antibody: peptide complex when bound to a peptide of the library.
- suitable marker systems including biotinylation, fluorescence, radioactivity, magnetic markers, color-developing markers, secondary antibodies
- the library must be constructed to exclude the naturally occurring CETP sequences since vaccination with this sequence is clearly excluded from this invention.
- Another suitable technique for isolating the epitopes according to the present invention is screening in phage peptide libraries, such as e.g. in WO 03/020750.
- the present invention also relates to a vaccine for the prevention and treatment of atherosclerosis, atherosclerosis risk diseases and atherosclerosis secondary diseases, comprising an antigen which contains at least one peptide selected from the group consisting of ALKNKLP, ALKSKIP, AVKGKLP, ALKHKIP, ALK-HKVP, ALKNKIP, ALKGKIP, ALKYKLP, ALKDKLP, ALKDKVP, AAQKDKVP, LKLHHGTPFQFN, SLPPDHWSLPVQ, QQQLGRDTFLHL or TNHWPNIQDIGG.

- the present invention also relates to the use of a CETP mimotope for the preparation of an agent for the prevention and treatment of atherosclerosis, atherosclerosis-risk diseases and atherosclerosis-related diseases.
- the CETP mimotope according to the invention may have a peptide structure (such as the library peptides screened according to the invention) or (eg as aptamers) other structures (for example based on nucleic acids). It is only important that they have an affinity for anti-bodies against the natural CETP, about those the natural sequences correspond (at least 50% of the binding affinity) but do not include "self-structures".
- HDLs high-density lipoproteins
- CHD coronary heart disease
- CETP is a plasma glycoprotein that facilitates the transfer of neutral lipids and phospholipids between lipoproteins and regulates the concentration of plasma HDL (6). Inhibition of CETP activity is expected to increase plasma HDL levels for several reasons.
- CETP lowers HDL levels by shifting cholesteryl esters from HDLs to VLDLs and LDLs (5).
- Transient inhibition of CETP in rabbits and hamsters by monoclonal antibodies (7, 8), small molecules (9), or antisense oligonucleotides (10) causes HDL enhancement.
- CETP inhibition with antisense nucleotides increased plasma HDL and decreased atherosclerotic lesions in a rabbit atherosclerosis model (11).
- CETP transgenic mice (12) and rats (13) show reduced plasma HDL. People with reduced CETP activity have elevated plasma HDL (14).
- the problem with the anti-CETP vaccine approach discussed above is that the vaccine formulation has a self-peptide and therefore must break the natural tolerance to self-antigens.
- the invention describes a CETP mimotope which can be used for vaccination: The mimotop is intended to induce the production of antibodies against CETP.
- the CETP mimotope has no self-sequence and therefore does not need to break tolerance. Thus, the induction of an anti-CETP antibody response is greatly facilitated.
- the mimotope is identified with a monoclonal antibody (rnAb) and (commercially available) peptide libraries (e.g., 16).
- a monoclonal anti-CETP antibody is used which neutralizes CETP activity (17). This rnAb detects a sequence within the C-terminal 26 amino acids of CETP necessary for neutral lipid transfer activity (18).
- CETP is a 476 amino acid glycoprotein.
- the following regions within the protein have been described as being immunogenic: amino acids 132-142 (19) amino acids 451-476 (20, 21) amino acids 184-260 (22) amino acids 261-331 (22) amino acids 332-366 (22) Amino Acids 367-409 (22) Amino Acids 410-450 (22)
- Inhibitory as well as non-inhibitory antibodies which detect the above enumerated regions within CETP can be used to detect mimotopes.
- the mimotope has a preferred length of 5 to 15 amino acids. Two different libraries are used in ELISA tests to define the mimotope sequences.
- This 7m library contains peptides with the following sequences (amino acid positions 1 to 7):
- the 7-mer peptides ALKNKLP, ALKSKIP, AVKGKLP, ALKHKIP, ALKHKVP, ALKNKIP, ALKGKIP, ALKYKLP, ALKDKLP and ALKDKVP are examples of mimotopes detected by a monoclonal antibody.
- This 8-mer library contains peptides with the following sequences (amino acid positions 1 to 8):
- the 8mere peptide AAQKDKVP is an example of a monoclonal antibody-detected mimotope.
- the mimotope used for vaccination must be administered in immunogenic form, eg coupled to a carrier.
