Description

一种嵌合抗原受体及其应用 技术领域
本申请涉及生物医药领域,具体涉及一种靶向部分特异性结合T细胞受体(TCR)的可变区Vα、Vβ和/或它们的片段的嵌合抗原受体。
背景技术
T细胞肿瘤是常见的血液系统恶性疾病。与B细胞淋巴瘤或白血病相比,T细胞淋巴瘤或白血病的预后较差。目前T细胞淋巴瘤或白血病的主要治疗以化疗为主,尚无特异的靶向免疫治疗方案。
嵌和抗原受体T细胞(CAR-T细胞)是一种经人工修饰的肿瘤杀伤细胞,其结合了抗体的靶向识别功能和T细胞的肿瘤杀伤功能,是肿瘤免疫治疗领域的一大突破。然而,CAR-T存在杀死正常T细胞的副作用,对肿瘤患者的安全性存在一定的风险。
多数成熟T细胞肿瘤均表达TCR或复合物,其中多数为TCR。整个T细胞的类群是非常异质化的,具有各种Vα亚型其所占比例从0.85%-8.3%不等。一般用于杀伤肿瘤细胞(例如T细胞肿瘤细胞)的疗法也会一定程度影响正常T细胞从而对患者的免疫系统造成不利的影响,从而阻碍肿瘤的治疗,因此亟需开发新的、对于正常T细胞类群影响较小的CAR。

实施例8 T120BBZ CAR-T细胞的TCR组成分析
将实施例1制备所得的T120BBZ CAR-T细胞,并以20BBZ CAR-T细胞作为对照,使用anti-TCRαβ(Biolegend#306708),anti-CD3(Biolegend#317306)和anti-Vα24Jα18 +(Biolegend#342912)染色,流式分析其特定靶向TCR(Vα24Jα18 +)组成的变化,结果如图8A-8C所示。结果显示,与对照CAR-T细胞相比,T120BBZ CAR-T中Vα24Jα18 +肿瘤细胞显著减少,证明T120BBZ CAR-T能选择性特异杀伤Vα24Jα18 +的T细胞,TCRαβ细胞、CD3 +细胞没有显著区别(NS,not siginificant),证明保留了其他的TCRαβ亚型的T细胞和TCR复合物中的CD3组成部分,预示了其对绝大多数T细胞亚类的保留,对T细胞免疫的功能影响较小。
前述详细说明是以解释和举例的方式提供的,并非要限制所附权利要求的范围。目前本文所列举的实施方式的多种变化对本领域普通技术人员来说是显而易见的,且保留在所附的权利要求和其等同方案的范围内。
