Definitions
- the invention belongs to the technical field of tumor vascular targeted drugs, in particular to a tumor vascular infarction polypeptide, a gene, an expression vector and an application thereof.
- Tumor vasculature is a channel for tumor cells to acquire nutrients and exclude metabolites. It is also one of the important ways for tumor cells to escape and metastasize. Its morphology and function are different from the normal vascular system of the body, so it is the key to tumor targeted therapy.
- Tumor vascular targeted therapy mainly includes two modes: inhibiting neovascularization and blocking existing tumor blood vessels. Among them, vascular therapy for blocking tumors mainly aims to treat tumors by selectively destroying the existing blood vessels of the tumor, cutting off the blood supply of the tumor, and inducing ischemic necrosis of the tumor cells. Therefore, how to achieve specific blocking of blood vessels in the tumor site, but has no effect on the normal tissue of the body, has become a research hotspot.
- Tissue factor is a transmembrane glycoprotein with a molecular weight of approximately 47 kDa and plays an important role in the thrombosis process. Normally, the tissue factor is located in the adventitial cells of the vessel wall and is not present in the circulation or in contact with circulating blood. When the integrity of the vessel wall is disrupted, the tissue factor is exposed to circulating blood, which exerts a hemostatic effect by activating the coagulation cascade. The tissue factor consists of 263 amino acid residues, of which the 219 amino acid residues at the amino terminus are located outside the cell membrane and are the active sites of tissue factor.

It is a fusion protein that recombines the above tTF with the tumor vascular targeting peptide CREKA, which can localize to the surface of tumor vascular endothelial cells through CREKA, thereby initiating the coagulation function of tTF in tumor blood vessels, inducing thrombosis, and blocking tumor sites. Blood supply, to achieve the purpose of treating tumors by "starving" tumors.

Gene expression of the invention.
- the expression vector of the present invention is preferably an expression vector constructed using the pET30a vector plasmid.
- the present invention also provides a transgenic cell line and an engineered bacterium comprising a gene encoding the above-described tumor vascular infarction polypeptide.
- the present invention also provides a transgenic cell line and an engineered bacteria comprising the above vector.
- the invention also provides a tumor vascular infarct composition comprising the tumor vascular infarct polypeptide.
- the present invention also provides a medicament for treating a tumor, the active ingredient of which comprises the tumor vascular infarct polypeptide.
- the present invention also provides the use of the tumor vascular infarct polypeptide, a gene encoding the same, a vector containing the gene encoding the same, or an engineered bacterium for preparing a medicament for treating a tumor.
- the invention further provides the use of the tumor vascular infarct polypeptide encoding gene or the vector containing the gene encoding the same in tumor gene therapy.
- Tumors described in the present invention include, but are not limited to, melanoma, breast cancer.
- the tumor vascular infarction polypeptide of the present invention can specifically synthesize the corresponding gene sequence, construct a fusion protein expression plasmid, and transfer it into, for example, BL21 E. coli, induce expression by IPTG and purify, and obtain tumor targeting property and Coagulation-active tumor vascular infarct polypeptide.
- the gene sequence of the fusion protein is first synthesized by whole genes, and Nde I and Xho I restriction sites are designed at both ends. Next, the gene sequence was ligated into the pET30a expression plasmid, and the expression plasmid was transformed into BL21 competent E. coli. Finally, expression and purification were induced by IPTG to obtain the desired protein. The target protein was tested for its therapeutic effect on tumors by C57BL/6 mouse melanoma model, tail vein The fusion protein was injected into tumor-bearing mice, and then the length and width of the tumor were measured using a vernier caliper, and the tumor volume was recorded.
- the tumor vascular infarction polypeptide provided by the invention has the characteristics of high targeting, safety and low immunogenicity, and the main part thereof is a TF extracellular region derived from itself, and therefore can well evade the immune system. Identify and clear.

Description
本发明属于肿瘤血管靶向药物技术领域,具体地说,涉及一种肿瘤血管梗塞剂多肽、基因、表达载体及其应用。The invention belongs to the technical field of tumor vascular targeted drugs, in particular to a tumor vascular infarction polypeptide, a gene, an expression vector and an application thereof.
肿瘤血管是肿瘤细胞获取营养物质及排除代谢产物的通道,也是肿瘤细胞逃逸、转移的重要途径之一,其形态学和功能都有别于机体的正常血管系统,因而是肿瘤靶向治疗的关键靶点之一。肿瘤血管靶向治疗主要包括两种模式:抑制新生血管生成和阻断已有肿瘤血管。其中阻断肿瘤已有血管疗法主要是通过选择性的破坏肿瘤已有的血管,切断肿瘤血供,诱发肿瘤细胞发生缺血性坏死,从而达到治疗肿瘤的目的。因此,如何实现特异的阻断肿瘤部位的血管,而对机体正常组织血管没有影响,成为研究的热点。Tumor vasculature is a channel for tumor cells to acquire nutrients and exclude metabolites. It is also one of the important ways for tumor cells to escape and metastasize. Its morphology and function are different from the normal vascular system of the body, so it is the key to tumor targeted therapy. One of the targets. Tumor vascular targeted therapy mainly includes two modes: inhibiting neovascularization and blocking existing tumor blood vessels. Among them, vascular therapy for blocking tumors mainly aims to treat tumors by selectively destroying the existing blood vessels of the tumor, cutting off the blood supply of the tumor, and inducing ischemic necrosis of the tumor cells. Therefore, how to achieve specific blocking of blood vessels in the tumor site, but has no effect on the normal tissue of the body, has become a research hotspot.
组织因子(TF)是一个分子量约为47kDa的跨膜糖蛋白,在血栓形成过程中起重要作用。正常情况下,组织因子位于血管壁外膜细胞,不存在于循环中或不与循环血液接触。当血管壁的完整性遭到破坏时,组织因子就会暴露于循环血液,通过激活凝固级联反应发挥止血作用。组织因子由263个氨基酸残基组成,其中氨基端的219个氨基酸残基位于细胞膜外,是组织因子的活性部位。研究表明,当该区域处于游离状态时,并没有凝血活性;但当它被锚定在磷脂膜表面,并暴露于血液中时,则会产生类似于全长因子的凝血活性,因此该段序列被称之为截断的组织因子(tTF)。鉴于此,如果用具有肿瘤血管靶向功能的分子将tTF特异的定位到肿瘤血管壁表面,则能够特异性的在肿瘤血管中诱发血栓形成事件,从而切断肿瘤部位的血供和代谢产物排除途径,达到治疗肿瘤的目的。Tissue factor (TF) is a transmembrane glycoprotein with a molecular weight of approximately 47 kDa and plays an important role in the thrombosis process. Normally, the tissue factor is located in the adventitial cells of the vessel wall and is not present in the circulation or in contact with circulating blood. When the integrity of the vessel wall is disrupted, the tissue factor is exposed to circulating blood, which exerts a hemostatic effect by activating the coagulation cascade. The tissue factor consists of 263 amino acid residues, of which the 219 amino acid residues at the amino terminus are located outside the cell membrane and are the active sites of tissue factor. Studies have shown that when the region is in a free state, there is no clotting activity; but when it is anchored on the surface of the phospholipid membrane and exposed to the blood, it produces a clotting activity similar to the full-length factor, so the sequence It is called truncated tissue factor (tTF). In view of this, if a molecule having a tumor vascular targeting function specifically targets tTF to the surface of a tumor blood vessel wall, it is possible to specifically induce a thrombotic event in the tumor blood vessel, thereby cutting off blood supply and metabolite elimination pathway at the tumor site. To achieve the purpose of treating tumors.
