Description

Endostatin突变体、Endostatin突变体与聚乙二醇的交联物以及它们的应用 技术领域
本发明涉及一种Endostatin突变体、Endostatin突变体与聚乙二醇的交联物以及它们的应用，具体涉及它们在眼部新生血管疾病治疗中的应用。
背景技术
视网膜和脉络膜疾病是目前眼科临床发病率越来越高且难以治疗的一类疾病，包括早产儿视网膜病变、老年性黄斑病变、高度近视黄斑病变、增生性糖尿病视网膜病变、视网膜静脉阻塞以及视网膜静脉周围炎所导致的视网膜脉络膜的新生血管等。据文献报道，增生性糖尿病视网膜病变的发病率为3.6％，70岁以上年龄组老年黄斑变性发病率可达25％。据此预计，我国目前受到眼内新生血管性疾病困扰面临失明危险的患者人数将超过3000万。中国每年新增DME(diabetic macular edema,糖尿病性黄斑水肿)超过30万例。糖尿病现在是美国境内新增失明病例的主要原因，DME困扰着美国境内至少560000例糖尿病患者，每年新增病例达75000人次。新生血管形成是这些疾病的重要表现形式，有效而安全的抗新生血管治疗成为临床眼科医师迫切需要的治疗手段。
目前对视网膜、脉络膜新生血管(CNV)的治疗方法主要有光动力疗法、经瞳孔温热疗法、激光光凝、放射疗法等，但这些治疗方法仅在新生血管局部起作用，临床疗效有限，且治疗时的局部损伤又可诱发新生血管，更不能预防新生血管再形成。
诺华和罗氏联合销售的、用于治疗眼底新生血管疾病的Lucentis(兰尼单抗)于2006年上市，2008年销售额达到17.68亿美元，超越拉坦前列素成为全球最畅销的眼科用药。2012年1月，Lucentis获准在中国上市，用于治疗老年相关性黄斑变性(AMD，age-related macular degeneration)。这种疾病会造成黄斑部(眼睛视网膜中心的一部分)损伤，可能导致失明和严重的视力损失。Lucentis是一种VEGF抗体的片段，属于外源性血管抑制剂，常见结膜出血、眼睛疼痛等副作用，极少数的出现 动脉血栓、脑中风、心肌梗死及急性冠脉综合症等严重药物不良反应事件。
1971年，美国哈佛大学儿童医学院的Judah Folkman教授提出肿瘤血管阻断理论：肿瘤的生长和迁移依赖于新生血管生成，阻断新生血管的生成可能阻止肿瘤的生长和转移。1996年，Judah Folkman实验室的O'Reilly发现了血管内皮抑制素(endostatin)，Endostatin是在基质蛋白质中分离出来的内源性新生血管抑制因子，是胶原蛋白XVIII C末端分子量为20kDa的片段。血管内皮抑制素可以抑制内皮细胞的迁移和增殖，进而可有效抑制动物模型中成纤维细胞瘤(Fibrosarcoma)T241、黑色素瘤(Melanoma)B16/F10和恶性血管内皮细胞瘤(Hemangioendothel ioma)EOMA等的生长。

七、M-ES-PEG和W-ES-PEG在家兔眼球内注射药代半衰期的比较
分别取实施例1制备的M-ES溶液或PEG-M-ES溶液，用生理盐水调整至所需浓度。待测溶液分别为5mg/ml的PEG-M-ES溶液、5mg/ml的M-ES溶液。
1、成年雌性新西兰兔(体重为2-2.5kg，中国人民解放军军事医学科学院实验动物中心)经速眠新腹腔麻醉。
2、用复方托品酰胺滴眼液对新西兰兔双眼进行散瞳，同时眼表滴用奥布卡因滴眼液。
3、用胰岛素注射器行玻璃体腔注射，双眼注射，每只眼注射50μl待测溶液，棉签按压5秒。
4、取材时间点为：0h，12h，24h，2天，6天，12天，45天。耳缘动脉取血、耳静脉注射空气处死后取前房水每眼约0.1ml、玻璃体0.4ml、以及视网膜分别装于1.5ml Eppendrof管，4℃保存。
5、采用Endostatin ELIA试剂盒(R&D公司)检测血药浓度，并计算药代参数。
结果见表6和图8。PEG-M-ES半衰期达到14.67天，且在第45天血药浓度仍为有效浓度。因此可实现每月甚至每45天给药一次，方便患者使用。

工业应用
Endostatin是一种人体本身具有的内源性血管抑制剂，其全身给药型肿瘤治疗药物恩度已在市场上广泛应用，安全性明显优于外源性血管抑制剂药物贝阀单抗。本发明构建了Endostatin N末端Histidine突变体，试验中发现Histidine N末端突变体锌离子结合明显下降，但其稳定性没有明显变化，且活性有提高。另外，突变后，其N末端失去了肽酶D的作用位点，有助于提高N末端PEG或是其他物质修饰的稳定性。因N端突变造成了Endostatin酶切位点的改变，在突变的Endostatin N末端进行PEG修饰，其稳定性增强。修饰产物在眼部球内注射后的半衰期为15天，可实现每月或是每2-3月给药一次，更利于眼科球部注射的治疗。
