Secondly, it needs to be activated in vitro after specific use. When CAR-T cells are returned to the patient, the dose is more difficult to control the antibody. In addition, the rapid increase in the number of CAR-T cells entering the patient can lead to Cytokine storm, which is excessive in a short period of time.

Description

一种三功能分子及其应用 技术领域
本发明属于生物医药技术领域,具体涉及一种三功能分子及其应用。
背景技术
人类CD19抗原是大小为95kDa的跨膜糖蛋白,从属于免疫球蛋白超家族,除表达于正常B淋巴细胞表面,CD19也高表达于B细胞恶性肿瘤,因此抗CD19单克隆全长抗体已被开发应用于治疗急/慢性淋巴细胞性白血病以及B细胞淋巴瘤(Wang K等人,Experimental Hematology & Oncology,1:36-42,2012)。鉴于抗CD19单克隆抗体无法有效募集细胞毒性T淋巴细胞(Cytotoxic T lymphocyte,CTL,该类CD3/CD8双阳性T细胞可特异性识别靶细胞表面的抗原肽/MHC I类分子复合物,自身活化后释放穿孔素(Peforin),导致靶细胞裂解死亡,也可分泌细胞毒素和颗粒酶(Granzyme)等致使靶细胞核的DNA损伤,引起靶细胞凋亡),人们进一步设计和开发了可衔接T细胞和淋巴瘤B细胞的双特异性抗体(Bi-specific antibody,BsAb)以及基因工程嵌合抗原受体T细胞免疫疗法(Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell immunotherapy,CAR-T)(Zhukovsky EA等人,Current Opinion in Immunology,40:24-35,2016)。
目前一种比较成熟的靶向CD19的双特异性抗体类型是抗CD19/抗CD3的双特异性T细胞衔接器(Bi-specific T cell engager,BiTE),其结构是两个单链抗体(Single-chain variable fragment,scFv)功能域通过具有柔性的连接肽片段(Linker)共价串联(Goebeler ME等人,Leukemia & Lymphoma,57:1021-1032,2016)。在机体的细胞免疫过程中,CD8阳性T细胞表面的TCR/CD3复合物与抗原递呈细胞(Antigen presenting cell,APC)表面的内源性抗原肽/MHC I类分子复合物发生特异性识别,导致CD3与共受体CD8的胞质段相互作用,激活与胞质段尾部相连的蛋白质酪氨酸激酶,使CD3胞质区免疫受体酪氨酸激酶激活模体(Immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif,ITAM)中的酪氨酸磷酸化,启动信号传导分子级联反应,激活转录因子,使得T细胞初步活化。抗CD19/抗CD3 BiTE双特异性抗体由于具有人类CD3和CD19两种抗原的结合活性,能够在T细胞与肿瘤B细胞间形成细胞衔接,同时给予T细胞初步活化信号,提高了其对肿瘤细胞的杀伤靶向性。但是,BiTE双特异性抗体不具有全长抗体的Fc片段,蛋白分子量较小(~54kDa),因此在肿瘤治疗的过程中可穿越尿血屏障和脑血屏障,生物利用度低,需持续静脉注射给药,同时具有一定的神经毒性。
此外,人体内T细胞的活化需要依赖双信号传递途径(Baxter AG等人,Nature Reviews Immunology,2:439-446,2002)。首先,APC细胞表面的抗原肽-MHC分子复合物与T细胞表面的TCR/CD3复合物相互作用产生第一信号,使得T细胞初步活化,之后APC细胞表面的共刺激分子配体(例如CD80、CD86、4-1BBL、B7RP-1、OX40L、GITRL、CD40、CD70、PD-L1、PD-L2、Galectin-9和HVEM等)与T细胞表面相应的共刺激分子(Co-stimulatory molecule,例如CD28、4-1BB、ICOS、OX40、GITR、CD40L、CD27、CTLA-4、PD-1、LAG-3、TIM-3、TIGIT和BTLA等)相互作用产生第二信号(共刺激信号):其中CD28、4-1BB、ICOS、OX40、GITR、CD40L和CD27等属于正共刺激分子,与相应配体(CD80、CD86、4-1BBL、B7RP-1、OX40L、GITRL、CD70等)相互作用所产生的第二信号(正共刺激信号)可导致T细胞的完全活化;而CTLA-4、PD-1、LAG-3、TIM-3、TIGIT和BTLA等属于负共刺激分子,与相应配体(CD80、CD86、PD-L1、PD-L2、Galectin-9、HVEM等)相互作用所产生的第二信号(负共刺激信号)主要是下调和终止T细胞的活化。已有研究表明仅有第一信号传递途径无法充分活化T细胞,相反会导致其失 能甚至产生激活诱导的T细胞死亡(Activation induced cell death,AICD)。为解决这一问题,可将抗肿瘤抗原/抗T细胞正(负)共刺激分子的双特异性抗体与抗肿瘤抗原/抗CD3的双特异性抗体联合使用,以提高T细胞的活化及肿瘤细胞杀伤效率(Jung G等人,Int J Cancer,91:225-230,2001;Kodama H等人,Immunol Lett,81:99-106,2002)。但该方法在实际操作过程中存在诸多不便,例如会增加重组双特异性抗体表达与纯化的工作量及生产成本,活化扩增T细胞时还需优化两种双特异性抗体的相对比例。相比之下,CAR-T技术能更好地解决T细胞的活化问题。CAR的构建通常包括:肿瘤相关抗原结合区(例如CD19抗原结合区,通常来源于抗CD19单克隆全长抗体的scFv片段)、胞外铰链区、跨膜区以及胞内信号区。其中胞内信号区负责介导T细胞的激活,一方面通过CD3ζ链上的酪氨酸激活基序来完成第一刺激信号,一方面通过CD28共刺激信号实现第一刺激信号的扩大,促进T细胞增殖与活化,并导致细胞因子分泌增加、抗细胞凋亡蛋白分泌增加、细胞死亡延迟等。但CAR-T技术本身也存在着一些不足:首先,该技术依赖病毒转染对T细胞进行基因改造,步骤繁琐,对实验条件要求较高;其次,具体使用时需将体外扩增活化后的CAR-T细胞回输至病人体内,剂量把控相对抗体药物具有更大难度;此外,CAR-T细胞进入患者体内后数量急剧增加可导致细胞因子风暴(Cytokine storm),短时期内产生超量的细胞因子,从而引起高烧、低压、休克甚至死亡等副反应。

二、三功能分子
本发明的一种三功能分子,其结构中包括能够结合于CD19的第一功能域、能够结合并激活T细胞表面CD3分子的第二功能域和能够结合并激活T细胞表面CD28分子的第三功能域。
进一步地,所述三功能分子能够在识别CD19的同时,结合并激活T细胞表面CD3分子和CD28分子,从而产生T细胞活化所需的第一信号和第二信号。
本发明对于第一功能域、第二功能域和第三功能域并无特殊限制,只要能够在识别CD19的同时,结合并激活T细胞表面CD3分子和CD28分子,从而产生T细胞活化所需的第一信号和第二信号即可。例如,所述第一功能域可以是抗CD19的抗体,所述第二功能域可以是抗CD3的抗体,所述第三功能域可以是抗CD28的抗体。所述抗体可以是任意形式。但无论是何种形式的抗体,其抗原结合部位均含有重链可变区和轻链可变区。所述抗体优选地可以是小分子抗体。所述小分子抗体是分子量较小的抗体片段,其抗原结合部位包括重链可变区和轻链可变区。所述小分子抗体的分子量虽小但保持了亲本单抗的亲和力,具有亲本单抗一样的特异性。所述小分子抗体的种类主要包括Fab抗体、Fv抗体、单链抗体(scFv)等。Fab抗体由完整的轻链(可变区VL和恒定区CL)和重链Fd段(可变区VH和第一恒定区CH1)通过二硫键连接形成。Fv抗体仅由轻链和重链的可变区通过非共价键连接,是抗体分子保留完整抗原结合部位的最小功能片段。单链抗体(scFv)是重链可变区和轻链可变区通过连接片段连接而成的单一蛋白肽链分子。
所述第一功能域和所述第二功能域之间通过连接片段1连接,所述第二功能域和所述第三功能域之间通过连接片段2连接。本发明对于连接顺序没有特殊要求,只要不限制本发明的目的即可。例如,可以是所述第一功能域的C末端与所述第二功能域的N末端连接;所述第二功能域的C末端与所述第三功能域的N末端连接。本发明对于连接片段1和连接片段2也没有特殊的限制,只要是不限制本发明的目的即可。

实施例1-2 CD19-CD3-CD28 TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-CD28 TsAb_D的表达与纯化
一、CD19-CD3-CD28 TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-CD28 TsAb_D的表达
1.1.CHO-S细胞(购自Thermo Fisher Scientific公司)转染前1天传代密度为0.5~0.6×106/ml;
1.2.转染当天进行细胞密度统计,当密度为1~1.4×106/ml、活力>90%时,可用于质粒转染;
1.3.转染复合物配制:每个项目(CD19-CD3-CD28 TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-CD28 TsAb_D)需准备两个离心管/培养瓶,以20ml为例,分别放置,取实施例1-1中所制备重组质粒:
管①中加入600μl PBS,20μg重组质粒,混匀;
管②中加入600μl PBS,20ul FreeStyleTM MAX Transfection Reagent(购自Thermo Fisher Scientific公司),混匀;
1.4.将稀释后的转染试剂,加入至稀释后的重组质粒中,混合均匀,配制成转染复合物;
1.5.转染复合物静置15~20min后,单滴匀速加入细胞培养物中;
1.6.于37℃,CO2浓度8%,摇床转速130rpm条件下进行转染后细胞培养,5天后收集培养上清进行目的蛋白表达检测。
二、CD19-CD3-CD28 TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-CD28 TsAb_D的纯化
2.1样品预处理
取上述转染后细胞培养上清20ml,加入缓冲液20mM PB,200mM NaCl调节pH至7.5;
2.2 Protein L亲和层析柱纯化
蛋白纯化层析柱:Protein L亲和层析柱(购自GE Healthcare公司,柱体积1.0ml)
缓冲液A(Buffer A):PBS,pH7.4
缓冲液B(Buffer B):0.1M Glycine,pH3.0
缓冲液C(Buffer C):0.1M Glycine,pH2.7
纯化过程:采用AKTA explorer 100型蛋白纯化系统(购自GE Healthcare公司),用Buffer A预处理Protein L亲和层析柱,取培养上清上样,收集流出液。上样完毕后,用至少1.5ml Buffer A平衡层析柱,平衡后分别用Buffer B和Buffer C洗脱,收集目的蛋白洗脱液(洗脱液的收集管需要预先加入1%的1M Tris,pH8.0来中和洗脱液pH值,Tris终浓度约为10mM),最后浓缩透析至缓冲液PBS中。
最终纯化的CD19-CD3-CD28 TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-CD28 TsAb_D重组蛋白经SDS-PAGE分析,还原和非还原条件下电泳图如图1-2所示。从图中可以看出,经Protein L亲和层析柱纯化后,CD19-CD3-CD28 TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-CD28 TsAb_D重组蛋白的纯度均>95%:其中CD19-CD3-CD28 TsAb_M重组蛋白的理论分子量为81.3kDa,还原和非还原条件下该蛋白均呈现单一电泳条带,分子量与单体一致,因此该三特异性抗体为单体形式(图1-2A);CD19-CD3-CD28 TsAb_D重组蛋白的理论分子量为89.1kDa,还原条件下该蛋白电泳条带所呈现分子量与单体一致,非还原条件下电泳条带所呈现分子量与二聚体一致(~180kDa)(图1-2B),说明两个蛋白分子可通过IgD铰链区形成二硫键相互连接,因此该三特异性抗体为二聚体形式。
此外,纯化的重组蛋白样品经N/C末端序列分析,结果表明所表达的重组蛋白样品均读框无误,与理论N/C末端氨基酸序列一致,质谱分析进一步确认CD19-CD3-CD28 TsAb_M为单体形式,CD19-CD3-CD28 TsAb_D为二聚体形式。

实施例1-4:三特异抗体及双特异性抗体介导的细胞衔接实验
以CCL-86 Raji淋巴瘤细胞(购自ATCC)作为CD19阳性的靶细胞,TIB-152 Jurkat细胞(购自ATCC)作为CD3和CD28阳性的效应细胞,比较本发明所述单体形式的TiTE三特异抗体(CD19-CD3-CD28 TsAb_M)、二聚体形式的TiTE三特异性抗体(CD19-CD3-CD28 TsAb_D)以及抗CD19/抗CD3 BiTE双特异抗体(CD19-CD3 BsAb,购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司)介导的细胞衔接活性差异。
细胞衔接实验步骤:
1、取Raji细胞~1×105个,设置高、中、低浓度3个实验组,分别添加终浓度为45、 0.45、0.0045ng/ml的CD19-CD3 BsAb、CD19-CD3-CD28 TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-CD28 TsAb_D,静置5min;以未添加任何抗体的细胞作为空白对照;
2、取相同数量的Jurkat细胞,分别添加到上述Raji细胞样品中,37℃培养箱放置1h,取出细胞轻柔摇晃30s,静置2min,显微镜下观察细胞成团情况并拍照;
结果如图1-4所示:在未添加任何抗体的条件下,Raji细胞与Jurkat细胞无聚集成团(图1-4A),说明两种细胞之间不存在非特异性衔接;在添加高浓度抗体(45ng/ml)的条件下,3个实验组中的Raji细胞与Jurkat细胞均明显成团(图1-4B-D),说明两种形式的TiTE三特异抗体(CD19-CD3-CD28 TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-CD28 TsAb_D)与抗CD19/抗CD3 BiTE双特异抗体(CD19-CD3 BsAb)在较高浓度下细胞衔接活性相差不大;在添加中浓度抗体(0.45ng/ml)的条件下,CD19-CD3-CD28 TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-CD28 TsAb_D仍可导致Raji细胞与Jurkat细胞明显成团,CD19-CD3 BsAb可导致两种细胞少量成团(图1-4E-G),说明两种形式的TiTE三特异抗体在中等浓度下细胞衔接活性均优于BiTE双特异性抗体;在添加低浓度抗体(0.0045ng/ml)的条件下,CD19-CD3-CD28 TsAb_D仍可导致Raji细胞与Jurkat细胞明显成团,CD19-CD3-CD28 TsAb_M可导致两种细胞少量成团,而CD19-CD3 BsAb无法使细胞成团(图1-4H-J),说明二聚体形式的TiTE三特异性抗体在低浓度下细胞衔接活性优于单体形式的TiTE三特异性抗体,而BiTE双特异性抗体在低浓度下无细胞衔接活性。

实施例2-2:CD19-CD3-4-1BB TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-4-1BB TsAb_D的表达与纯化
一、CD19-CD3-4-1BB TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-4-1BB TsAb_D的表达
1.1.CHO-S细胞(购自Thermo Fisher Scientific公司)转染前1天传代密度为0.5~0.6×106/ml;
1.2.转染当天进行细胞密度统计,当密度为1~1.4×106/ml、活力>90%时,可用于质粒转染;
1.3.转染复合物配制:每个项目(CD19-CD3-4-1BB TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-4-1BB TsAb_D)需准备两个离心管/培养瓶,以20ml为例,分别放置,取实施例2-1中所制备重组质粒:
管①中加入600μl PBS,20μg重组质粒,混匀;
管②中加入600μl PBS,20ul FreeStyleTM MAX Transfection Reagent(购自Thermo Fisher Scientific公司),混匀;
1.4.将稀释后的转染试剂,加入至稀释后的重组质粒中,混合均匀,配制成转染复合物;
1.5.转染复合物静置15~20min后,单滴匀速加入细胞培养物中;
1.6.于37℃,CO2浓度8%,摇床转速130rpm条件下进行转染后细胞培养,5天后收集培养上清进行目的蛋白表达检测。
二、CD19-CD3-4-1BB TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-4-1BB TsAb_D的纯化
2.1样品预处理
取上述转染后细胞培养上清20ml,加入缓冲液20mM PB,200mM NaCl调节pH至7.5;
2.2 Protein L亲和层析柱纯化
蛋白纯化层析柱:Protein L亲和层析柱(购自GE Healthcare公司,柱体积1.0ml)
缓冲液A(Buffer A):PBS,pH7.4
缓冲液B(Buffer B):0.1M Glycine,pH3.0
缓冲液C(Buffer C):0.1M Glycine,pH2.7
纯化过程:采用AKTA explorer 100型蛋白纯化系统(购自GE Healthcare公司),用Buffer A预处理Protein L亲和层析柱,取培养上清上样,收集流出液。上样完毕后,用至少1.5ml Buffer A平衡层析柱,平衡后分别用Buffer B和Buffer C洗脱,收集目的蛋白洗脱液(洗脱液的收集管需要预先加入1%的1M Tris,pH8.0来中和洗脱液pH值,Tris终浓度约为10mM),最后浓缩透析至缓冲液PBS中。
最终纯化的CD19-CD3-4-1BB TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-4-1BB TsAb_D重组蛋白经SDS-PAGE分析,还原和非还原条件下电泳图如图2-2所示。从图中可以看出,经Protein L亲和层析柱纯化后,CD19-CD3-4-1BB TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-4-1BB TsAb_D重组蛋白的纯 度均>95%:其中CD19-CD3-4-1BB TsAb_M重组蛋白的理论分子量为80.6kDa,还原和非还原条件下该蛋白均呈现单一电泳条带,分子量与单体一致,因此该三特异性抗体为单体形式(图2-2A);CD19-CD3-4-1BB TsAb_D重组蛋白的理论分子量为88.4kDa,还原条件下该蛋白电泳条带所呈现分子量与单体一致,非还原条件下电泳条带所呈现分子量与二聚体一致(约180kDa)(图2-2B),说明两个蛋白分子可通过IgD铰链区形成二硫键相互连接,因此该三特异性抗体为二聚体形式。
此外,纯化的重组蛋白样品经N/C末端序列分析,结果表明所表达的重组蛋白样品均读框无误,与理论N/C末端氨基酸序列一致,质谱分析进一步确认CD19-CD3-4-1BB TsAb_M为单体形式,CD19-CD3-4-1BB TsAb_D为二聚体形式。

实施例2-6:CD19-CD3-ICOS TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-ICOS TsAb_D的表达与纯化
一、CD19-CD3-ICOS TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-ICOS TsAb_D的表达
1.1.CHO-S细胞(购自Thermo Fisher Scientific公司)转染前1天传代密度为0.5~0.6×106/ml;
1.2.转染当天进行细胞密度统计,当密度为1~1.4×106/ml、活力>90%时,可用于质粒转染;
1.3.转染复合物配制:每个项目(CD19-CD3-ICOS TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-ICOS TsAb_D)需准备两个离心管/培养瓶,以20ml为例,分别放置,取实施例2-5中所制备重组质粒:
管①中加入600μl PBS,20μg重组质粒,混匀;
管②中加入600μl PBS,20ul FreeStyleTM MAX Transfection Reagent(购自Thermo Fisher Scientific公司),混匀;
1.4.将稀释后的转染试剂,加入至稀释后的重组质粒中,混合均匀,配制成转染复合物;
1.5.转染复合物静置15~20min后,单滴匀速加入细胞培养物中;
1.6.于37℃,CO2浓度8%,摇床转速130rpm条件下进行转染后细胞培养,5天后收集培养上清进行目的蛋白表达检测。
二、CD19-CD3-ICOS TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-ICOS TsAb_D的纯化
2.1样品预处理
取上述转染后细胞培养上清20ml,加入缓冲液20mM PB,200mM NaCl调节pH至7.5;
2.2 Protein L亲和层析柱纯化
蛋白纯化层析柱:Protein L亲和层析柱(购自GE Healthcare公司,柱体积1.0ml)
缓冲液A(Buffer A):PBS,pH7.4
缓冲液B(Buffer B):0.1M Glycine,pH3.0
缓冲液C(Buffer C):0.1M Glycine,pH2.7
纯化过程:采用AKTA explorer 100型蛋白纯化系统(购自GE Healthcare公司),用Buffer A预处理Protein L亲和层析柱,取培养上清上样,收集流出液。上样完毕后,用至少1.5ml Buffer A平衡层析柱,平衡后分别用Buffer B和Buffer C洗脱,收集目的蛋白洗脱液(洗脱液的收集管需要预先加入1%的1M Tris,pH8.0来中和洗脱液pH值,Tris终浓度约为10mM),最后浓缩透析至缓冲液PBS中。
最终纯化的CD19-CD3-ICOS TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-ICOS TsAb_D重组蛋白经SDS-PAGE分析,还原和非还原条件下电泳图如图2-5所示。从图中可以看出,经Protein L亲和层析柱纯化后,CD19-CD3-ICOS TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-ICOS TsAb_D重组蛋白的纯度均>95%:其中CD19-CD3-ICOS TsAb_M重组蛋白的理论分子量为80.7kDa,还原和非还原条件下该蛋白均呈现单一电泳条带,分子量与单体一致,因此该三特异性抗体为单体形式(图2-5A);CD19-CD3-ICOS TsAb_D重组蛋白的理论分子量为88.6kDa,还原条件下该蛋白电泳条带所呈现分子量与单体一致,非还原条件下电泳条带所呈现分子量与二聚体一致(约180kDa)(图2-5B),说明两个蛋白分子可通过IgD铰链区形成二硫键相互连接,因此该三特异性抗体为二聚体形式。
此外,纯化的重组蛋白样品经N/C末端序列分析,结果表明所表达的重组蛋白样品均读框无误,与理论N/C末端氨基酸序列一致,质谱分析进一步确认CD19-CD3-ICOS TsAb_M为单体形式,CD19-CD3-ICOS TsAb_D为二聚体形式。

实施例2-8:CD19-CD3-ICOS三特异性抗体介导的细胞杀伤实验
以人外周血单个核细胞(Peripheral blood mononuclear cell,PBMC)为实验材料,用本发明所制备的上述单体形式的TiTE三特异抗体(CD19-CD3-ICOS TsAb_M)、二聚体形式的TiTE三特异抗体(CD19-CD3-ICOS TsAb_D)以及抗CD19/抗CD3 BiTE双特异抗体(CD19-CD3 BsAb,购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司)分别作用于同一供体来源的人血PBMC制备的CIK细胞(CD3+CD56+)与CCL-86 Raji淋巴瘤细胞(CD19+,购自ATCC),检测细胞死亡情况,比较三种抗体介导的CIK效应细胞对CCL-86 Raji靶细胞的杀伤效率 差异。
细胞杀伤实验步骤:
1.PBMC的分离:使用新抽取的志愿者抗凝血液,加入等体积的医用生理盐水,沿离心管壁缓慢加入与血液等体积的淋巴细胞分离液(购自GE Healthcare公司),保持液面分层明显,2000rpm离心20min,吸取中间白雾状的细胞层于新的离心管中,加入2倍以上体积的PBS缓冲液洗涤,1100rpm离心10min,重复洗涤一次,用少量预冷的X-vivo 15无血清培养基(购自Lonza公司)重悬,细胞计数待用;
2.CIK细胞培养与扩增:将PBMC用CIK基础培养基(90%X-vivo15+10%FBS)(购自Gbico公司)重悬,调整细胞密度为1×106/ml,添加到全长抗体Anti-CD3(5ug/ml)、全长抗体Anti-CD28(5ug/ml)和NovoNectin(25ug/ml)包被的T25培养瓶中(全长抗体与NovoNectin均购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司),同时添加细胞因子IFN-γ(200ng/ml,购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司)和IL-1β(2ng/ml,购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司),置于培养箱,在饱和湿度、37℃、5.0%CO2的条件下进行培养。培养过夜后,添加500U/ml的IL-2(购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司)继续培养,每2~3天计数并用添加500U/ml IL-2的CIK基础培养基按1×106/ml的密度进行细胞传代;
3.CIK细胞对Raji细胞的杀伤效率:在96孔板中进行细胞杀伤实验,反应体积为100uL,取上述培养的CIK细胞1×105个,加入Raji细胞1×105个(CIK效应细胞∶Raji靶细胞(E∶T比)为1∶1),分别添加不同终浓度(25、12.5、6.25、3.125ng/ml)的CD19-CD3 BsAb、CD19-CD3-ICOS TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-ICOS TsAb_D抗体样品,室温混匀3~5min,37℃共培养3h后,每孔添加10μl的CCK-8,37℃继续反应2~3h,随后用酶标仪测OD450值,按照以下公式计算细胞杀伤效率,每组实验重复检测3次;同时以未添加任何抗体的细胞杀伤效率作为空白对照。
Figure PCTCN2017096594-appb-000148
结果如图2-7所示:当CIK效应细胞∶Raji靶细胞(E∶T比)为1∶1时,在未添加任何抗体的条件下,CIK细胞对Raji细胞3h的杀伤效率约为23%;在添加较高浓度抗体(25、12.5、6.25ng/ml)的条件下,CIK细胞对Raji细胞的杀伤效率均有显著地提高,其中CD19-CD3-ICOS TsAb_D所介导的细胞杀伤效果最好,杀伤效率分别约为94%、94%和82%,CD19-CD3-ICOS TsAb_M的效果次之,杀伤效率约为92%、86%和84%,CD19-CD3 BsAb的效果最弱,杀伤效率分别约为80%、54%和54%;在添加较低浓度抗体(3.125ng/ml)的条件下,CD19-CD3-ICOS TsAb_D与CD19-CD3-ICOS TsAb_M所介导的CIK细胞对Raji细胞的杀伤效率仍有明显地提高,杀伤效率分别约为76%和71%,而CD19-CD3 BsAb与空白对照相比基本没有效果。上述结果说明两种形式的CD19-CD3-ICOS TiTE三特异抗体所介导的T细胞对CD19阳性肿瘤细胞的靶向杀伤活性均优于CD19-CD3 BiTE双特异性抗体,其中二聚体形式较单体形式具有更好的效果。

细胞杀伤实验步骤:

以人外周血单个核细胞(Peripheral blood mononuclear cell,PBMC)为实验材料,用本发明所制备的上述单体形式的TiTE三特异抗体(CD19-CD3-GITR TsAb_M)、二聚体形式的TiTE三特异抗体(CD19-CD3-GITR TsAb_D)以及抗CD19/抗CD3 BiTE双特异抗体(CD19-CD3 BsAb,购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司)分别作用于同一供体来源的人血PBMC制备的CIK细胞(CD3+CD56+)与CCL-86 Raji淋巴瘤细胞(CD19+,购自ATCC),检测细胞死亡情况,比较三种抗体介导的CIK效应细胞对CCL-86 Raji靶细胞的杀伤效率差异。
细胞杀伤实验步骤:
1.PBMC的分离:使用新抽取的志愿者抗凝血液,加入等体积的医用生理盐水,沿离心 管壁缓慢加入与血液等体积的淋巴细胞分离液(购自GE Healthcare公司),保持液面分层明显,2000rpm离心20min,吸取中间白雾状的细胞层于新的离心管中,加入2倍以上体积的PBS缓冲液洗涤,1100rpm离心10min,重复洗涤一次,用少量预冷的X-vivo 15无血清培养基(购自Lonza公司)重悬,细胞计数待用;
2.CIK细胞培养与扩增:将PBMC用CIK基础培养基(90%X-vivo15+10%FBS)(购自Gbico公司)重悬,调整细胞密度为1×106/ml,添加到全长抗体Anti-CD3(5ug/ml)、全长抗体Anti-CD28(5ug/ml)和NovoNectin(25ug/ml)包被的T25培养瓶中(全长抗体与NovoNectin均购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司),同时添加细胞因子IFN-γ(200ng/ml,购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司)和IL-1β(2ng/ml,购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司),置于培养箱,在饱和湿度、37℃、5.0%CO2的条件下进行培养。培养过夜后,添加500U/ml的IL-2(购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司)继续培养,每2~3天计数并用添加500U/ml IL-2的CIK基础培养基按1×106/ml的密度进行细胞传代;

一、CD19-CD3-CD40L TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-CD40L TsAb_D的表达
1.1.CHO-S细胞(购自Thermo Fisher Scientific公司)转染前1天传代密度为0.5~ 0.6×106/ml;
1.2.转染当天进行细胞密度统计,当密度为1~1.4×106/ml、活力>90%时,可用于质粒转染;
1.3.转染复合物配制:每个项目(CD19-CD3-CD40L TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-CD40L TsAb_D)需准备两个离心管/培养瓶,以20ml为例,分别放置,取实施例2-17中所制备重组质粒:

二、CD19-CD3-CD40L TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-CD40L TsAb_D的纯化

取上述转染后细胞培养上清20ml,加入缓冲液20mM PB,200mM NaCl调节pH至7.5;
2.2 Protein L亲和层析柱纯化
蛋白纯化层析柱:Protein L亲和层析柱(购自GE Healthcare公司,柱体积1.0ml)
缓冲液A(Buffer A):PBS,pH7.4
缓冲液B(Buffer B):0.1M Glycine,pH3.0
缓冲液C(Buffer C):0.1M Glycine,pH2.7
纯化过程:采用AKTA explorer 100型蛋白纯化系统(购自GE Healthcare公司),用Buffer A预处理Protein L亲和层析柱,取培养上清上样,收集流出液。上样完毕后,用至少1.5ml Buffer A平衡层析柱,平衡后分别用Buffer B和Buffer C洗脱,收集目的蛋白洗脱液(洗脱液的收集管需要预先加入1%的1M Tris,pH8.0来中和洗脱液pH值,Tris终浓度约为10mM),最后浓缩透析至缓冲液PBS中。

此外,纯化的重组蛋白样品经N/C末端序列分析,结果表明所表达的重组蛋白样品均读框无误,与理论N/C末端氨基酸序列一致,质谱分析进一步确认CD19-CD3-CD40L TsAb_M为单体形式,CD19-CD3-CD40L TsAb_D为二聚体形式。

实施例2-22:CD19-CD3-CD27 TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-CD27 TsAb_D的表达与纯化
一、CD19-CD3-CD27 TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-CD27 TsAb_D的表达
1.1.CHO-S细胞(购自Thermo Fisher Scientific公司)转染前1天传代密度为0.5~0.6×106/ml;
1.2.转染当天进行细胞密度统计,当密度为1~1.4×106/ml、活力>90%时,可用于质粒转染;
1.3.转染复合物配制:每个项目(CD19-CD3-CD27 TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-CD27 TsAb_D)需准备两个离心管/培养瓶,以20ml为例,分别放置,取实施例2-21中所制备重组质粒:
管①中加入600μl PBS,20μg重组质粒,混匀;
管②中加入600μl PBS,20ul FreeStyleTM MAX Transfection Reagent(购自Thermo Fisher Scientific公司),混匀;
1.4.将稀释后的转染试剂,加入至稀释后的重组质粒中,混合均匀,配制成转染复合物;
1.5.转染复合物静置15~20min后,单滴匀速加入细胞培养物中;
1.6.于37℃,CO2浓度8%,摇床转速130rpm条件下进行转染后细胞培养,5天后收集培养上清进行目的蛋白表达检测
二、CD19-CD3-CD27 TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-CD27 TsAb_D的纯化
2.1样品预处理
取上述转染后细胞培养上清20ml,加入缓冲液20mM PB,200mM NaCl调节pH至7.5;
2.2 Protein L亲和层析柱纯化
蛋白纯化层析柱:Protein L亲和层析柱(购自GE Healthcare公司,柱体积1.0ml)
缓冲液A(Buffer A):PBS,pH7.4
缓冲液B(Buffer B):0.1M Glycine,pH3.0
缓冲液C(Buffer C):0.1M Glycine,pH2.7
纯化过程:采用AKTA explorer 100型蛋白纯化系统(购自GE Healthcare公司),用Buffer A预处理Protein L亲和层析柱,取培养上清上样,收集流出液。上样完毕后,用至少1.5ml Buffer A平衡层析柱,平衡后分别用Buffer B和Buffer C洗脱,收集目的蛋白洗脱液(洗脱液的收集管需要预先加入1%的1M Tris,pH8.0来中和洗脱液pH值,Tris终浓度约为10mM),最后浓缩透析至缓冲液PBS中。
最终纯化的CD19-CD3-CD27 TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-CD27 TsAb_D重组蛋白经SDS-PAGE分析,还原和非还原条件下电泳图如图2-17所示。从图中可以看出,经Protein L亲和层析柱纯化后,CD19-CD3-CD27 TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-CD27 TsAb_D重组蛋白的纯度均>95%:其中CD19-CD3-CD27 TsAb_M重组蛋白的理论分子量为80.1kDa,还原和非还原条件下该蛋白均呈现单一电泳条带,分子量与单体一致,因此该三特异性抗体为单体形式(图2-17A);CD19-CD3-CD27 TsAb_D重组蛋白的理论分子量为88.0kDa,还原条件下该蛋白电泳条带所呈现分子量与单体一致,非还原条件下电泳条带所呈现分子量与二聚体一致(约180kDa)(图2-17B),说明两个蛋白分子可通过IgD铰链区形成二硫键相互连接,因此该三特异性抗体为二聚体形式。
此外,纯化的重组蛋白样品经N/C末端序列分析,结果表明所表达的重组蛋白样品均读框无误,与理论N/C末端氨基酸序列一致,质谱分析进一步确认CD19-CD3-CD27 TsAb_M为单体形式,CD19-CD3-CD27 TsAb_D为二聚体形式。

实施例2-24:CD19-CD3-CD27三特异性抗体介导的细胞杀伤实验
以人外周血单个核细胞(Peripheral blood mononuclear cell,PBMC)为实验材料,用本发明所制备的上述单体形式的TiTE三特异抗体(CD19-CD3-CD27 TsAb_M)、二聚体形式的TiTE三特异抗体(CD19-CD3-CD27 TsAb_D)以及抗CD19/抗CD3 BiTE双特异抗体(CD19-CD3 BsAb,购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司)分别作用于同一供体来源的人血PBMC制备的CIK细胞(CD3+CD56+)与CCL-86 Raji淋巴瘤细胞(CD19+,购自ATCC),检测细胞死亡情况,比较三种抗体介导的CIK效应细胞对CCL-86 Raji靶细胞的杀伤效率差异。
细胞杀伤实验步骤:
1.PBMC的分离:使用新抽取的志愿者抗凝血液,加入等体积的医用生理盐水,沿离心管壁缓慢加入与血液等体积的淋巴细胞分离液(购自GE Healthcare公司),保持液面分层 明显,2000rpm离心20min,吸取中间白雾状的细胞层于新的离心管中,加入2倍以上体积的PBS缓冲液洗涤,1100rpm离心10min,重复洗涤一次,用少量预冷的X-vivo 15无血清培养基(购自Lonza公司)重悬,细胞计数待用;
2.CIK细胞培养与扩增:将PBMC用CIK基础培养基(90%X-vivo15+10%FBS)(购自Gbico公司)重悬,调整细胞密度为1×106/ml,添加到全长抗体Anti-CD3(5ug/ml)、全长抗体Anti-CD28(5ug/ml)和NovoNectin(25ug/ml)包被的T25培养瓶中(全长抗体与NovoNectin均购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司),同时添加细胞因子IFN-γ(200ng/ml,购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司)和IL-1β(2ng/ml,购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司),置于培养箱,在饱和湿度、37℃、5.0%CO2的条件下进行培养。培养过夜后,添加500U/ml的IL-2(购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司)继续培养,每2~3天计数并用添加500U/ml IL-2的CIK基础培养基按1×106/ml的密度进行细胞传代;
3.CIK细胞对Raji细胞的杀伤效率:在96孔板中进行细胞杀伤实验,反应体积为100uL,取上述培养的CIK细胞1×105个,加入Raji细胞1×105个(CIK效应细胞∶Raji靶细胞(E∶T比)为1∶1),分别添加不同终浓度(25、12.5、6.25、3.125ng/ml)的CD19-CD3 BsAb、CD19-CD3-CD27 TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-CD27 TsAb_D抗体样品,室温混匀3~5min,37℃共培养3h后,每孔添加10μl的CCK-8,37℃继续反应2~3h,随后用酶标仪测OD450值,按照以下公式计算细胞杀伤效率,每组实验重复检测3次;同时以未添加任何抗体的细胞杀伤效率作为空白对照。
Figure PCTCN2017096594-appb-000214
结果如图2-19所示:当CIK效应细胞∶Raji靶细胞(E∶T比)为1∶1时,在未添加任何抗体的条件下,CIK细胞对Raji细胞3h的杀伤效率约为23%;在添加较高浓度抗体(25、12.5、6.25ng/ml)的条件下,CIK细胞对Raji细胞的杀伤效率均有显著地提高,其中CD19-CD3-CD27 TsAb_D所介导的细胞杀伤效果最好,杀伤效率分别约为89%、84%和74%,CD19-CD3-CD27 TsAb_M的效果次之,杀伤效率约为89%、84%和67%,CD19-CD3BsAb的效果最弱,杀伤效率分别约为80%、54%和54%;在添加较低浓度抗体(3.125ng/ml)的条件下,CD19-CD3-CD27 TsAb_D与CD19-CD3-CD27 TsAb_M所介导的CIK细胞对Raji细胞的杀伤效率仍有一定程度地提高,杀伤效率分别约为55%和49%,而CD19-CD3 BsAb与空白对照相比基本没有效果。上述结果说明两种形式的CD19-CD3-CD27 TiTE三特异抗体所介导的T细胞对CD19阳性肿瘤细胞的靶向杀伤活性均优于CD19-CD3 BiTE双特异性抗体,其中二聚体形式较单体形式具有更好的效果。

实施例3-4:CD19-CD3-4-1BBL三特异性分子介导的细胞杀伤实验
以人外周血单个核细胞(Peripheral blood mononuclear cell,PBMC)为实验材料,用本发明所制备的上述单体形式的TiTE三特异分子(CD19-CD3-4-1BBL TsM_M)、二聚体形式的TiTE三特异分子(CD19-CD3-4-1BBL TsM_D)以及抗CD19/抗CD3 BiTE双特异抗体(CD19-CD3 BsAb,购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司)分别作用于同一供体来源的人血PBMC制备的CIK细胞(CD3+CD56+)与CCL-86 Raji淋巴瘤细胞(CD19+,购自ATCC),检测细胞死亡情况,比较三种蛋白介导的CIK效应细胞对CCL-86 Raji靶细胞的杀伤效率差异。
细胞杀伤实验步骤:
1.PBMC的分离:使用新抽取的志愿者抗凝血液,加入等体积的医用生理盐水,沿离心管壁缓慢加入与血液等体积的淋巴细胞分离液(购自GE Healthcare公司),保持液面分层明显,2000rpm离心20min,吸取中间白雾状的细胞层于新的离心管中,加入2倍以上体积的PBS缓冲液洗涤,1100rpm离心10min,重复洗涤一次,用少量预冷的X-vivo 15无血清培养基(购自Lonza公司)重悬,细胞计数待用;
2.CIK细胞培养与扩增:将PBMC用CIK基础培养基(90%X-vivo15+10%FBS)(购自Gbico公司)重悬,调整细胞密度为1×106/ml,添加到全长抗体Anti-CD3(5ug/ml)、全长抗体Anti-CD28(5ug/ml)和NovoNectin(25ug/ml)包被的T25培养瓶中(全长抗体与NovoNectin均购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司),同时添加细胞因子IFN-γ(200ng/ml,购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司)和IL-1β(2ng/ml,购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司),置于培养箱,在饱和湿度、37℃、5.0%CO2的条件下进行培养。培养过夜后,添加500U/ml的IL-2(购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司)继续培养,每2~3天计数并用添加500U/ml IL-2的CIK基础培养基按1×106/ml的密度进行细胞传代;
3.CIK细胞对Raji细胞的杀伤效率:在96孔板中进行细胞杀伤实验,反应体积为100uL,取上述培养的CIK细胞1×105个,加入Raji细胞1×105个(CIK效应细胞∶Raji靶细胞(E∶T比)为1∶1),分别添加不同终浓度(25、12.5、6.25、3.125ng/ml)的CD19-CD3 BsAb、CD19-CD3-4-1BBLTsM_M和CD19-CD3-4-1BBLTsM_D蛋白样品,室温混匀3~5min,37℃共培养3h后,每孔添加10μl的CCK-8,37℃继续反应2~3h,随后用酶标仪测OD450值,按照以下公式计算细胞杀伤效率,每组实验重复检测3次;同时以未添加任何蛋白的细胞杀伤效率作为空白对照。
Figure PCTCN2017096594-appb-000251
结果如图3-4所示:当CIK效应细胞∶Raji靶细胞(E∶T比)为1∶1时,在未添加任何蛋白的条件下,CIK细胞对Raji细胞3h的杀伤效率约为23%;在添加较高浓度蛋白(25、12.5、6.25ng/ml)的条件下,CIK细胞对Raji细胞的杀伤效率均有显著地提高,其中CD19-CD3-4-1BBL TsM_D所介导的细胞杀伤效果最好,杀伤效率分别约为96%、92%和87%,CD19-CD3-4-1BBL TsM_M的效果次之,杀伤效率约为93%、88%和83%,CD19-CD3BsAb的效果最弱,杀伤效率分别约为80%、54%和54%;在添加较低浓度蛋白(3.125ng/ml)的条件下,CD19-CD3-4-1BBL TsM_D与CD19-CD3-4-1BBL TsM_M所介导的CIK细胞对Raji细胞的杀伤效率仍有明显地提高,杀伤效率分别约为82%和72%,而CD19-CD3 BsAb与空白对照相比基本没有效果。上述结果说明两种形式的CD19-CD3-4-1BBL TiTE三特异分子所介导的T细胞对CD19阳性肿瘤细胞的靶向杀伤活性均优于CD19-CD3 BiTE双特异性抗体,其中二聚体形式较单体形式具有更好的效果。

一、CD19-CD3-OX40L TsM_M和CD19-CD3-OX40L TsM_D的表达
1.1.CHO-S细胞(购自Thermo Fisher Scientific公司)转染前1天传代密度为0.5~0.6×106/ml;
1.2.转染当天进行细胞密度统计,当密度为1~1.4×106/ml、活力>90%时,可用于质粒转染;
1.3.转染复合物配制:每个项目(CD19-CD3-OX40L TsM_M和CD19-CD3-OX40L TsM_D)需准备两个离心管/培养瓶,以20ml为例,分别放置,取实施例3-9中所制备重组质粒:

1.6.于37℃,CO2浓度8%,摇床转速130rpm条件下进行转染后细胞培养,5天后收集培养上清进行目的蛋白表达检测。
二、CD19-CD3-OX40L TsM_M和CD19-CD3-OX40L TsM_D的纯化
2.1样品预处理
取上述转染后细胞培养上清20ml,加入缓冲液20mM PB,200mM NaCl调节pH至7.5;
2.2 Protein L亲和层析柱纯化
蛋白纯化层析柱:Protein L亲和层析柱(购自GE Healthcare公司,柱体积1.0ml)
缓冲液A(Buffer A):PBS,pH7.4
缓冲液B(Buffer B):0.1M Glycine,pH3.0
缓冲液C(Buffer C):0.1M Glycine,pH2.7
纯化过程:采用AKTA explorer 100型蛋白纯化系统(购自GE Healthcare公司),用Buffer A预处理Protein L亲和层析柱,取培养上清上样,收集流出液。上样完毕后,用至少1.5ml Buffer A平衡层析柱,平衡后分别用Buffer B和Buffer C洗脱,收集目的蛋白洗脱液(洗脱液的收集管需要预先加入1%的1M Tris,pH8.0来中和洗脱液pH值,Tris终浓度约为10mM),最后浓缩透析至缓冲液PBS中。

此外,纯化的重组蛋白样品经N/C末端序列分析,结果表明所表达的重组蛋白样品均读框无误,与理论N/C末端氨基酸序列一致,质谱分析进一步确认CD19-CD3-OX40L TsM_M 为单体形式,CD19-CD3-OX40L TsM_D为二聚体形式。

实施例3-14:CD19-CD3-GITRL TsM_M和CD19-CD3-GITRL TsM_D的表达与纯化
一、CD19-CD3-GITRL TsM_M和CD19-CD3-GITRL TsM_D的表达
1.1.CHO-S细胞(购自Thermo Fisher Scientific公司)转染前1天传代密度为0.5~0.6×106/ml;
1.2.转染当天进行细胞密度统计,当密度为1~1.4×106/ml、活力>90%时,可用于质粒转 染;
1.3.转染复合物配制:每个项目(CD19-CD3-GITRL TsM_M和CD19-CD3-GITRL TsM_D)需准备两个离心管/培养瓶,以20ml为例,分别放置,取实施例3-13中所制备重组质粒:

1.6.于37℃,CO2浓度8%,摇床转速130rpm条件下进行转染后细胞培养,5天后收集培养上清进行目的蛋白表达检测。
二、CD19-CD3-GITRL TsM_M和CD19-CD3-GITRL TsM_D的纯化
2.1样品预处理
取上述转染后细胞培养上清20ml,加入缓冲液20mM PB,200mM NaCl调节pH至7.5;
2.2 Protein L亲和层析柱纯化
蛋白纯化层析柱:Protein L亲和层析柱(购自GE Healthcare公司,柱体积1.0ml)
缓冲液A(Buffer A):PBS,pH7.4
缓冲液B(Buffer B):0.1M Glycine,pH3.0
缓冲液C(Buffer C):0.1M Glycine,pH2.7
纯化过程:采用AKTA explorer 100型蛋白纯化系统(购自GE Healthcare公司),用Buffer A预处理Protein L亲和层析柱,取培养上清上样,收集流出液。上样完毕后,用至少1.5ml Buffer A平衡层析柱,平衡后分别用Buffer B和Buffer C洗脱,收集目的蛋白洗脱液(洗脱液的收集管需要预先加入1%的1M Tris,pH8.0来中和洗脱液pH值,Tris终浓度约为10mM),最后浓缩透析至缓冲液PBS中。
最终纯化的CD19-CD3-GITRL TsM_M和CD19-CD3-GITRL TsM_D重组蛋白经SDS-PAGE分析,还原和非还原条件下电泳图如图3-11所示。从图中可以看出,经Protein L亲和层析柱纯化后,CD19-CD3-GITRL TsM_M和CD19-CD3-GITRL TsM_D重组蛋白的纯度均>95%:其中CD19-CD3-GITRL TsM_M重组蛋白的理论分子量为68.7kDa,还原和非还原条件下该蛋白均呈现单一电泳条带,由于GITRL胞外区结构域存在翻译后N-糖基化修饰,因此实际分子量与理论值相比偏大,该三特异性分子为糖基化的单体形式(图3-11A);CD19-CD3-GITRL TsM_D重组蛋白的理论分子量为76.6kDa,还原条件下该蛋白电泳条带所呈现分子量与糖基化的单体一致,非还原条件下电泳条带所呈现分子量与糖基化的二聚体一致(图3-11B),说明两个蛋白分子可通过IgD铰链区形成二硫键相互连接,因此该三特异性分子为二聚体形式。
此外,纯化的重组蛋白样品经N/C末端序列分析,结果表明所表达的重组蛋白样品均读框无误,与理论N/C末端氨基酸序列一致,质谱分析进一步确认CD19-CD3-GITRL TsM_M为单体形式,CD19-CD3-GITRL TsM_D为二聚体形式。

细胞杀伤实验步骤:
1.PBMC的分离:使用新抽取的志愿者抗凝血液,加入等体积的医用生理盐水,沿离心管壁缓慢加入与血液等体积的淋巴细胞分离液(购自GE Healthcare公司),保持液面分层明显,2000rpm离心20min,吸取中间白雾状的细胞层于新的离心管中,加入2倍以上体积的PBS缓冲液洗涤,1100rpm离心10min,重复洗涤一次,用少量预冷的X-vivo 15无血清培养基(购自Lonza公司)重悬,细胞计数待用;
2.CIK细胞培养与扩增:将PBMC用CIK基础培养基(90%X-vivo15+10%FBS)(购自Gbico公司)重悬,调整细胞密度为1×106/ml,添加到全长抗体Anti-CD3(5ug/ml)、全长抗体Anti-CD28(5ug/ml)和NovoNectin(25ug/ml)包被的T25培养瓶中(全长抗体与NovoNectin均购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司),同时添加细胞因子IFN-γ(200ng/ml,购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司)和IL-1β(2ng/ml,购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司),置于培养箱,在饱和湿度、37℃、5.0%CO2的条件下进行培养。培养过夜后,添加500U/ml的IL-2(购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司)继续培养,每2~3天计数并用添加500U/ml IL-2的CIK基础培养基按1×106/ml的密度进行细胞传代;
3.CIK细胞对Raji细胞的杀伤效率:在96孔板中进行细胞杀伤实验,反应体积为100uL,取上述培养的CIK细胞1×105个,加入Raji细胞1×105个(CIK效应细胞∶Raji靶细胞(E∶T比)为1∶1),分别添加不同终浓度(25、12.5、6.25、3.125ng/ml)的CD19-CD3 BsAb、CD19-CD3-GITRL TsM_M和CD19-CD3-GITRL TsM_D蛋白样品,室温混匀3~5min,37℃共培养3h后,每孔添加10μl的CCK-8,37℃继续反应2~3h,随后用酶标仪测OD450值,按照以下公式计算细胞杀伤效率,每组实验重复检测3次;同时以未添加任何蛋白的细胞 杀伤效率作为空白对照。
Figure PCTCN2017096594-appb-000287
结果如图3-13所示:当CIK效应细胞∶Raji靶细胞(E∶T比)为1∶1时,在未添加任何蛋白的条件下,CIK细胞对Raji细胞3h的杀伤效率约为23%;在添加较高浓度蛋白(25、12.5、6.25ng/ml)的条件下,CIK细胞对Raji细胞的杀伤效率均有显著地提高,其中CD19-CD3-GITRL TsM_D所介导的细胞杀伤效果最好,杀伤效率分别约为92%、88%和84%,CD19-CD3-GITRL TsM_M的效果次之,杀伤效率约为89%、85%和78%,CD19-CD3BsAb的效果最弱,杀伤效率分别约为80%、54%和54%;在添加较低浓度蛋白(3.125ng/ml)的条件下,CD19-CD3-GITRL TsM_D与CD19-CD3-GITRL TsM_M所介导的CIK细胞对Raji细胞的杀伤效率仍有一定程度地提高,杀伤效率分别约为78%和68%,而CD19-CD3 BsAb与空白对照相比基本没有效果。上述结果说明两种形式的CD19-CD3-GITRL TiTE三特异分子所介导的T细胞对CD19阳性肿瘤细胞的靶向杀伤活性均优于CD19-CD3 BiTE双特异性抗体,其中二聚体形式较单体形式具有更好的效果。

此外,纯化的重组蛋白样品经N/C末端序列分析,结果表明所表达的重组蛋白样品均读框无误,与理论N/C末端氨基酸序列一致,质谱分析进一步确认CD19-CD3-CD70 TsM_M为单体形式,CD19-CD3-CD70 TsM_D为二聚体形式。

实施例3-20:CD19-CD3-CD70三特异性分子介导的细胞杀伤实验
以人外周血单个核细胞(Peripheral blood mononuclear cell,PBMC)为实验材料,用本发明所制备的上述单体形式的TiTE三特异分子(CD19-CD3-CD70 TsM_M)、二聚体形式的TiTE三特异分子(CD19-CD3-CD70 TsM_D)以及抗CD19/抗CD3 BiTE双特异抗体(CD19-CD3 BsAb,购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司)分别作用于同一供体来源的人血PBMC制备的CIK细胞(CD3+CD56+)与CCL-86 Raji淋巴瘤细胞(CD19+,购自ATCC),检测细胞死亡情况,比较三种蛋白介导的CIK效应细胞对CCL-86 Raji靶细胞的杀伤效率差异。
细胞杀伤实验步骤:
1.PBMC的分离:使用新抽取的志愿者抗凝血液,加入等体积的医用生理盐水,沿离心管壁缓慢加入与血液等体积的淋巴细胞分离液(购自GE Healthcare公司),保持液面分层明显,2000rpm离心20min,吸取中间白雾状的细胞层于新的离心管中,加入2倍以上体积的PBS缓冲液洗涤,1100rpm离心10min,重复洗涤一次,用少量预冷的X-vivo 15无血清培养基(购自Lonza公司)重悬,细胞计数待用;
2.CIK细胞培养与扩增:将PBMC用CIK基础培养基(90%X-vivo15+10%FBS)(购自Gbico公司)重悬,调整细胞密度为1×106/ml,添加到全长抗体Anti-CD3(5ug/ml)、全长抗体Anti-CD28(5ug/ml)和NovoNectin(25ug/ml)包被的T25培养瓶中(全长抗体与NovoNectin均购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司),同时添加细胞因子IFN-γ(200ng/ml,购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司)和IL-1β(2ng/ml,购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司),置于培养箱,在饱和湿度、37℃、5.0%CO2的条件下进行培养。培养过夜后,添加500U/ml的IL-2(购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司)继续培养,每2~3天计数并用添加500U/ml IL-2的CIK基础培养基按1×106/ml的密度进行细胞传代;
3.CIK细胞对Raji细胞的杀伤效率:在96孔板中进行细胞杀伤实验,反应体积为100uL,取上述培养的CIK细胞1×105个,加入Raji细胞1×105个(CIK效应细胞∶Raji靶细胞(E∶T比)为1∶1),分别添加不同终浓度(25、12.5、6.25、3.125ng/ml)的CD19-CD3 BsAb、CD19-CD3-CD70 TsM_M和CD19-CD3-CD70 TsM_D蛋白样品,室温混匀3~5min,37℃共培养3h后,每孔添加10μl的CCK-8,37℃继续反应2~3h,随后用酶标仪测OD450值,按照以下公式计算细胞杀伤效率,每组实验重复检测3次;同时以未添加任何蛋白的细胞 杀伤效率作为空白对照。
Figure PCTCN2017096594-appb-000300
结果如图3-16所示:当CIK效应细胞∶Raji靶细胞(E∶T比)为1∶1时,在未添加任何蛋白的条件下,CIK细胞对Raji细胞3h的杀伤效率约为23%;在添加较高浓度蛋白(25、12.5、6.25ng/ml)的条件下,CIK细胞对Raji细胞的杀伤效率均有显著地提高,其中CD19-CD3-CD70 TsM_D所介导的细胞杀伤效果最好,杀伤效率分别约为96%、92%和87%,CD19-CD3-CD70 TsM_M的效果次之,杀伤效率约为93%、88%和83%,CD19-CD3BsAb的效果最弱,杀伤效率分别约为80%、54%和54%;在添加较低浓度蛋白(3.125ng/ml)的条件下,CD19-CD3-CD70 TsM_D与CD19-CD3-CD70 TsM_M所介导的CIK细胞对Raji细胞的杀伤效率仍有明显地提高,杀伤效率分别约为82%和72%,而CD19-CD3 BsAb与空白对照相比基本没有效果。上述结果说明两种形式的CD19-CD3-CD70 TiTE三特异分子所介导的T细胞对CD19阳性肿瘤细胞的靶向杀伤活性均优于CD19-CD3 BiTE双特异性抗体,其中二聚体形式较单体形式具有更好的效果。

一、CD19-CD3-CTLA-4 TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-CTLA-4 TsAb_D的表达
1.1.CHO-S细胞(购自Thermo Fisher Scientific公司)转染前1天传代密度为0.5~0.6×106/ml;
1.2.转染当天进行细胞密度统计,当密度为1~1.4×106/ml、活力>90%时,可用于质粒转染;
1.3.转染复合物配制:每个项目(CD19-CD3-CTLA-4 TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-CTLA-4 TsAb_D)需准备两个离心管/培养瓶,以20ml为例,分别放置,取实施例4-5中所制备重组质粒:

1.6.于37℃,CO2浓度8%,摇床转速130rpm条件下进行转染后细胞培养,5天后收集培养上清进行目的蛋白表达检测。
二、CD19-CD3-CTLA-4 TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-CTLA-4 TsAb_D的纯化
2.1样品预处理
取上述转染后细胞培养上清20ml,加入缓冲液20mM PB,200mM NaCl调节pH至7.5;
2.2 Protein L亲和层析柱纯化
蛋白纯化层析柱:Protein L亲和层析柱(购自GE Healthcare公司,柱体积1.0ml)
缓冲液A(Buffer A):PBS,pH7.4
缓冲液B(Buffer B):0.1M Glycine,pH3.0
缓冲液C(Buffer C):0.1M Glycine,pH2.7
纯化过程:采用AKTA explorer 100型蛋白纯化系统(购自GE Healthcare公司),用Buffer A预处理Protein L亲和层析柱,取培养上清上样,收集流出液。上样完毕后,用至少1.5ml Buffer A平衡层析柱,平衡后分别用Buffer B和Buffer C洗脱,收集目的蛋白洗脱液(洗脱液的收集管需要预先加入1%的1M Tris,pH8.0来中和洗脱液pH值,Tris终浓度约为10mM),最后浓缩透析至缓冲液PBS中。
最终纯化的CD19-CD3-CTLA-4 TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-CTLA-4 TsAb_D重组蛋白经SDS-PAGE分析,还原和非还原条件下电泳图如图4-5所示。从图中可以看出,经Protein L亲和层析柱纯化后,CD19-CD3-CTLA-4 TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-CTLA-4 TsAb_D重组蛋白的纯度均>95%:其中CD19-CD3-CTLA-4 TsAb_M重组蛋白的理论分子量为80.1kDa,还原和非还原条件下该蛋白均呈现单一电泳条带,分子量与单体一致,因此该三特异性抗体为单体形式(图4-5A);CD19-CD3-CTLA-4 TsAb_D重组蛋白的理论分子量为88.0kDa,还原条件下该蛋白电泳条带所呈现分子量与单体一致,非还原条件下电泳条带所呈现分子量与二聚体一致(约180kDa)(图4-5B),说明两个蛋白分子可通过IgD铰链区形成二硫键相互连接,因此该三特异性抗体为二聚体形式。
此外,纯化的重组蛋白样品经N/C末端序列分析,结果表明所表达的重组蛋白样品均读框无误,与理论N/C末端氨基酸序列一致,质谱分析进一步确认CD19-CD3-CTLA-4 TsAb_M为单体形式,CD19-CD3-CTLA-4 TsAb_D为二聚体形式。

实施例4-10:CD19-CD3-LAG-3 TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-LAG-3 TsAb_D的表达与纯化
一、CD19-CD3-LAG-3 TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-LAG-3 TsAb_D的表达
1.1.CHO-S细胞(购自Thermo Fisher Scientific公司)转染前1天传代密度为0.5~0.6×106/ml;
1.2.转染当天进行细胞密度统计,当密度为1~1.4×106/ml、活力>90%时,可用于质粒转染;
1.3.转染复合物配制:每个项目(CD19-CD3-LAG-3 TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-LAG-3 TsAb_D)需准备两个离心管/培养瓶,以20ml为例,分别放置,取实施例4-9中所制备重组质粒:
管①中加入600μl PBS,20μg重组质粒,混匀;
管②中加入600μl PBS,20ul FreeStyleTM MAX Transfection Reagent(购自Thermo Fisher Scientific公司),混匀;
1.4.将稀释后的转染试剂,加入至稀释后的重组质粒中,混合均匀,配制成转染复合物;
1.5.转染复合物静置15~20min后,单滴匀速加入细胞培养物中;
1.6.于37℃,CO2浓度8%,摇床转速130rpm条件下进行转染后细胞培养,5天后收集培养上清进行目的蛋白表达检测。
二、CD19-CD3-LAG-3 TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-LAG-3 TsAb_D的纯化
2.1样品预处理
取上述转染后细胞培养上清20ml,加入缓冲液20mM PB,200mM NaCl调节pH至7.5;
2.2 Protein L亲和层析柱纯化
蛋白纯化层析柱:Protein L亲和层析柱(购自GE Healthcare公司,柱体积1.0ml)
缓冲液A(Buffer A):PBS,pH7.4
缓冲液B(Buffer B):0.1M Glycine,pH3.0
缓冲液C(Buffer C):0.1M Glycine,pH2.7
纯化过程:采用AKTA explorer 100型蛋白纯化系统(购自GE Healthcare公司),用Buffer A预处理Protein L亲和层析柱,取培养上清上样,收集流出液。上样完毕后,用至少1.5ml  Buffer A平衡层析柱,平衡后分别用Buffer B和Buffer C洗脱,收集目的蛋白洗脱液(洗脱液的收集管需要预先加入1%的1M Tris,pH8.0来中和洗脱液pH值,Tris终浓度约为10mM),最后浓缩透析至缓冲液PBS中。
最终纯化的CD19-CD3-LAG-3 TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-LAG-3 TsAb_D重组蛋白经SDS-PAGE分析,还原和非还原条件下电泳图如图4-8所示。从图中可以看出,经Protein L亲和层析柱纯化后,CD19-CD3-LAG-3 TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-LAG-3 TsAb_D重组蛋白的纯度均>95%:其中CD19-CD3-LAG-3 TsAb_M重组蛋白的理论分子量为80.4kDa,还原和非还原条件下该蛋白均呈现单一电泳条带,分子量与单体一致,因此该三特异性抗体为单体形式(图4-8A);CD19-CD3-LAG-3 TsAb_D重组蛋白的理论分子量为88.3kDa,还原条件下该蛋白电泳条带所呈现分子量与单体一致,非还原条件下电泳条带所呈现分子量与二聚体一致(约180kDa)(图4-8B),说明两个蛋白分子可通过IgD铰链区形成二硫键相互连接,因此该三特异性抗体为二聚体形式。
此外,纯化的重组蛋白样品经N/C末端序列分析,结果表明所表达的重组蛋白样品均读框无误,与理论N/C末端氨基酸序列一致,质谱分析进一步确认CD19-CD3-LAG-3 TsAb_M为单体形式,CD19-CD3-LAG-3 TsAb_D为二聚体形式。

实施例4-12:CD19-CD3-LAG-3三特异性抗体介导的细胞杀伤实验
以人外周血单个核细胞(Peripheral blood mononuclear cell,PBMC)为实验材料,用本发明所制备的上述单体形式的TiTE三特异抗体(CD19-CD3-LAG-3 TsAb_M)、二聚体形式的TiTE三特异抗体(CD19-CD3-LAG-3 TsAb_D)以及抗CD19/抗CD3 BiTE双特异抗体(CD19-CD3 BsAb,购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司)分别作用于同一供体来源的人血PBMC制备的CIK细胞(CD3+CD56+)与CCL-86 Raji淋巴瘤细胞(CD19+,购自ATCC),检测细胞死亡情况,比较三种抗体介导的CIK效应细胞对CCL-86 Raji靶细胞的杀伤效率差异。
细胞杀伤实验步骤:
1.PBMC的分离:使用新抽取的志愿者抗凝血液,加入等体积的医用生理盐水,沿离心管壁缓慢加入与血液等体积的淋巴细胞分离液(购自GE Healthcare公司),保持液面分层明显,2000rpm离心20min,吸取中间白雾状的细胞层于新的离心管中,加入2倍以上体积的PBS缓冲液洗涤,1100rpm离心10min,重复洗涤一次,用少量预冷的X-vivo 15无血清培养基(购自Lonza公司)重悬,细胞计数待用;
2.CIK细胞培养与扩增:将PBMC用CIK基础培养基(90%X-vivo15+10%FBS)(购自Gbico公司)重悬,调整细胞密度为1×106/ml,添加到全长抗体Anti-CD3(5ug/ml)、全长抗体Anti-CD28(5ug/ml)和NovoNectin(25ug/ml)包被的T25培养瓶中(全长抗体与NovoNectin均购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司),同时添加细胞因子IFN-γ(200ng/ml,购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司)和IL-1β(2ng/ml,购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司),置于培养箱,在饱和湿度、37℃、5.0%CO2的条件下进行培养。培养过夜后,添加500U/ml的IL-2(购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司)继续培养,每2~3天计数并用添加500U/ml IL-2的CIK基础培养基按1×106/ml的密度进行细胞传代;
3.CIK细胞对Raji细胞的杀伤效率:在96孔板中进行细胞杀伤实验,反应体积为100uL,取上述培养的CIK细胞1×105个,加入Raji细胞1×105个(CIK效应细胞∶Raji靶细胞(E∶T比)为1∶1),分别添加不同终浓度(25、12.5、6.25、3.125ng/ml)的CD19-CD3 BsAb、CD19-CD3-LAG-3 TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-LAG-3 TsAb_D抗体样品,室温混匀3~5min,37℃共培养3h后,每孔添加10μl的CCK-8,37℃继续反应2~3h,随后用酶标仪测OD450值,按照以下公式计算细胞杀伤效率,每组实验重复检测3次;同时以未添加任何抗体的细胞杀伤效率作为空白对照。
Figure PCTCN2017096594-appb-000375
结果如图4-10所示:当CIK效应细胞∶Raji靶细胞(E∶T比)为1∶1时,在未添加任何抗体的条件下,CIK细胞对Raji细胞3h的杀伤效率约为23%;在添加较高浓度抗体(25、12.5、6.25ng/ml)的条件下,CIK细胞对Raji细胞的杀伤效率均有显著地提高,其中CD19-CD3-LAG-3 TsAb_D所介导的细胞杀伤效果最好,杀伤效率分别约为95%、92%和83%,CD19-CD3-LAG-3 TsAb_M的效果次之,杀伤效率约为89%、86%和73%,CD19-CD3  BsAb的效果最弱,杀伤效率分别约为80%、54%和54%;在添加较低浓度抗体(3.125ng/ml)的条件下,CD19-CD3-LAG-3 TsAb_D与CD19-CD3-LAG-3 TsAb_M所介导的CIK细胞对Raji细胞的杀伤效率仍有一定程度地提高,杀伤效率分别约为72%和61%,而CD19-CD3 BsAb与空白对照相比基本没有效果。上述结果说明两种形式的CD19-CD3-LAG-3 TiTE三特异抗体所介导的T细胞对CD19阳性肿瘤细胞的靶向杀伤活性均优于CD19-CD3 BiTE双特异性抗体,其中二聚体形式较单体形式具有更好的效果。

实施例4-16:CD19-CD3-TIM-3三特异性抗体介导的细胞杀伤实验
以人外周血单个核细胞(Peripheral blood mononuclear cell,PBMC)为实验材料,用本发明所制备的上述单体形式的TiTE三特异抗体(CD19-CD3-TIM-3 TsAb_M)、二聚体形式的TiTE三特异抗体(CD19-CD3-TIM-3 TsAb_D)以及抗CD19/抗CD3 BiTE双特异抗体(CD19-CD3 BsAb,购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司)分别作用于同一供体来源的人血PBMC制备的CIK细胞(CD3+CD56+)与CCL-86 Raji淋巴瘤细胞(CD19+,购自ATCC),检测细胞死亡情况,比较三种抗体介导的CIK效应细胞对CCL-86 Raji靶细胞的杀伤效率差异。
细胞杀伤实验步骤:
1.PBMC的分离:使用新抽取的志愿者抗凝血液,加入等体积的医用生理盐水,沿离心管壁缓慢加入与血液等体积的淋巴细胞分离液(购自GE Healthcare公司),保持液面分层明显,2000rpm离心20min,吸取中间白雾状的细胞层于新的离心管中,加入2倍以上体积的PBS缓冲液洗涤,1100rpm离心10min,重复洗涤一次,用少量预冷的X-vivo 15无血清培养基(购自Lonza公司)重悬,细胞计数待用;
2.CIK细胞培养与扩增:将PBMC用CIK基础培养基(90%X-vivo15+10%FBS)(购自Gbico公司)重悬,调整细胞密度为1×106/ml,添加到全长抗体Anti-CD3(5ug/ml)、全长抗体Anti-CD28(5ug/ml)和NovoNectin(25ug/ml)包被的T25培养瓶中(全长抗体与NovoNectin均购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司),同时添加细胞因子IFN-γ(200ng/ml,购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司)和IL-1β(2ng/ml,购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司),置于培养箱,在饱和湿度、37℃、5.0%CO2的条件下进行培养。培养过夜后,添加500U/ml的IL-2(购自吴江近岸蛋白质科技有限公司)继续培养,每2~3天计数并用添加500U/ml IL-2的CIK基础培养基按1×106/ml的密度进行细胞传代;
3.CIK细胞对Raji细胞的杀伤效率:在96孔板中进行细胞杀伤实验,反应体积为100uL,取上述培养的CIK细胞1×105个,加入Raji细胞1×105个(CIK效应细胞∶Raji靶细胞(E∶T比)为1∶1),分别添加不同终浓度(25、12.5、6.25、3.125ng/ml)的CD19-CD3 BsAb、CD19-CD3-TIM-3 TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-TIM-3 TsAb_D抗体样品,室温混匀3~5min,37℃共培养3h后,每孔添加10μl的CCK-8,37℃继续反应2~3h,随后用酶标仪测OD450值,按照以下公式计算细胞杀伤效率,每组实验重复检测3次;同时以未添加任何抗体的细胞杀伤效率作为空白对照。
Figure PCTCN2017096594-appb-000389
结果如图4-13所示:当CIK效应细胞∶Raji靶细胞(E∶T比)为1∶1时,在未添加任何抗体的条件下,CIK细胞对Raji细胞3h的杀伤效率约为23%;在添加较高浓度抗体(25、12.5、6.25ng/ml)的条件下,CIK细胞对Raji细胞的杀伤效率均有显著地提高,其中CD19-CD3-TIM-3 TsAb_D所介导的细胞杀伤效果最好,杀伤效率分别约为98%、97%和86%,CD19-CD3-TIM-3 TsAb_M的效果次之,杀伤效率约为92%、89%和76%,CD19-CD3 BsAb的效果最弱,杀伤效率分别约为80%、54%和54%;在添加较低浓度抗体(3.125ng/ml)的条件下,CD19-CD3-TIM-3 TsAb_D与CD19-CD3-TIM-3 TsAb_M所介导的CIK细胞对Raji细胞的杀伤效率仍有一定程度地提高,杀伤效率分别约为76%和68%,而CD19-CD3 BsAb与空白对照相比基本没有效果。上述结果说明两种形式的CD19-CD3-TIM-3 TiTE三特异抗体所介导的T细胞对CD19阳性肿瘤细胞的靶向杀伤活性均优于CD19-CD3 BiTE双特异性抗体,其中二聚体形式较单体形式具有更好的效果。

实施例4-22:CD19-CD3-BTLA TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-BTLA TsAb_D的表达与纯化
一、CD19-CD3-BTLA TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-BTLA TsAb_D的表达
1.1.CHO-S细胞(购自Thermo Fisher Scientific公司)转染前1天传代密度为0.5~ 0.6×106/ml;
1.2.转染当天进行细胞密度统计,当密度为1~1.4×106/ml、活力>90%时,可用于质粒转染;
1.3.转染复合物配制:每个项目(CD19-CD3-BTLA TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-BTLA TsAb_D)需准备两个离心管/培养瓶,以20ml为例,分别放置,取实施例4-21中所制备重组质粒:
管①中加入600μl PBS,20μg重组质粒,混匀;
管②中加入600μl PBS,20ul FreeStyleTM MAX Transfection Reagent(购自Thermo Fisher Scientific公司),混匀;

1.6.于37℃,CO2浓度8%,摇床转速130rpm条件下进行转染后细胞培养,5天后收集培养上清进行目的蛋白表达检测。
二、CD19-CD3-BTLA TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-BTLA TsAb_D的纯化
2.1样品预处理
取上述转染后细胞培养上清20ml,加入缓冲液20mM PB,200mM NaCl调节pH至7.5;
2.2 Protein L亲和层析柱纯化
蛋白纯化层析柱:Protein L亲和层析柱(购自GE Healthcare公司,柱体积1.0ml)
缓冲液A(Buffer A):PBS,pH7.4
缓冲液B(Buffer B):0.1M Glycine,pH3.0
缓冲液C(Buffer C):0.1M Glycine,pH2.7
纯化过程:采用AKTA explorer 100型蛋白纯化系统(购自GE Healthcare公司),用Buffer A预处理Protein L亲和层析柱,取培养上清上样,收集流出液。上样完毕后,用至少1.5ml Buffer A平衡层析柱,平衡后分别用Buffer B和Buffer C洗脱,收集目的蛋白洗脱液(洗脱液的收集管需要预先加入1%的1M Tris,pH8.0来中和洗脱液pH值,Tris终浓度约为10mM),最后浓缩透析至缓冲液PBS中。
最终纯化的CD19-CD3-BTLA TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-BTLA TsAb_D重组蛋白经SDS-PAGE分析,还原和非还原条件下电泳图如图4-17所示。从图中可以看出,经Protein L亲和层析柱纯化后,CD19-CD3-BTLA TsAb_M和CD19-CD3-BTLA TsAb_D重组蛋白的纯度均>95%:其中CD19-CD3-BTLA TsAb_M重组蛋白的理论分子量为80.0kDa,还原和非还原条件下该蛋白均呈现单一电泳条带,分子量与单体一致,因此该三特异性抗体为单体形式(图4-17A);CD19-CD3-BTLA TsAb_D重组蛋白的理论分子量为87.9kDa,还原条件下该蛋白电泳条带所呈现分子量与单体一致,非还原条件下电泳条带所呈现分子量与二聚体一致(约180kDa)(图4-17B),说明两个蛋白分子可通过IgD铰链区形成二硫键相互连接,因此该三特异性抗体为二聚体形式。
此外,纯化的重组蛋白样品经N/C末端序列分析,结果表明所表达的重组蛋白样品均读框无误,与理论N/C末端氨基酸序列一致,质谱分析进一步确认CD19-CD3-BTLA TsAb_M为单体形式,CD19-CD3-BTLA TsAb_D为二聚体形式。
