  • the present invention relates to a low antigenic HBsAg particle and a method for producing the same.
  • DDS drug delivery system
  • the viral coat protein used as a protein forming the hollow nanoparticles exhibits antigenicity and antibody inducing ability similar to those of viruses when administered into the human body. For this reason, 1) the virus-infected patients who already possess antiviral antibodies by administering the virus vaccine, the administered hollow nanoparticles are neutralized by the antiviral antibodies. In the case of continuous administration, the antibody against itself is induced and neutralized by the antibody, so that the administered hollow nanoparticles may not be able to exert the intended drug delivery ability. Furthermore, the concern of anaphylaxis cannot be excluded as a side effect. Therefore, overcoming this antigenicity and immunogenicity has been a challenge for pharmaceutical applications of hollow nanoparticles.

  • the obtained high expression strain was mass-cultured in the same manner as wild-type HBsL particles, and the ultracentrifugation method described in J. Biol. Chem. Vol. 267 (3) pl953-1961 (1992) Purify the MSL-deficient L particles using.
  • Reference Example 1 Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for antibodies to wild-type L particles and MSL-deficient L particles
  • the purified wild-type L particle was dissolved in PBS to a concentration of 20 g / ml, and then dispensed into a 96-well plate at 100 1 / well, at 4 ° C Soot was adsorbed. After washing with PBS containing 0.05% Tween 80 (PBST), 150% PBS containing 5% Block Ace (snow mark) was dispensed and stored at 4 ° C.
  • Mouse antiserum for dilution (containing 10% FBS) Diluted 20 times to 20,000 times with PBST), added to each well, and allowed to react at room temperature for 2 hours.
  • MSL deletion mutants MSL ([deletion region]) / [linker sequence] -d [number of C-terminal deletion residues]

Abstract

L'invention porte: sur une nanoparticule creuse présentant une antigénicité/immunogénicité faible; sur une protéine constitutive de la nanoparticule creuse; sur une particule faite de ladite protéine; et sur un procédé de préparation de ladite particule. L'invention porte spécifiquement sur la protéine mutante HbsAg (de l'antigène de surface du virus humain de l'hépatite B) qui présente une délétion d'au moins un résidu d'acide aminé entre la position-105 et la position-148 d'un segment du polypeptide S d'une protéine HBsAg contenant ledit segment.
