The nano-carrier is constructed by the following steps: introducing three tandem proteins, i.e., intN, gb1 and halo, into a C-terminal of an encapsulin protein by using a gene fusion method so as to form a recombinant protein encapsulin-intN-gb1-halo; subjecting 60 recombinant protein monomers to self-assembly so as to obtain nano-particles, exposed intN-gb1-halo thereof being taken as a universal "adapter", and after the adapter is mixed with cargo recombinant proteins gb1-intC and cargo, performing molecular recombination under the assistance of DTT; and subjecting intein to self-excision to form by-products intN-gb1-halo and gb1-intC, and subjecting encapsulin and the cargo to covalent coupling so as to produce a target product encapsulin-cargo. Also provided is a nano preparation capable of simultaneously delivering an antigen and an immunopotentiator, which formed by fusing an N-terminal of ferritin with a C-terminal of a connector gbl-intein to form a recombinant protein gbl-inteinc-ferrtin, performing self-assembly to obtain 24 polymers to form nanoparticles, fusing a C-terminal of an exogenous protein with an N-terminal of the intein to form the recombinant protein, enabling the N-terminal of the intein to specifically recognize and excise the ferritin exposed on the surface of the nanoparticles, and performing covalent cross-linking of the exogenous protein and the ferritin, wherein the exogenous protein is an immunopotentiator, or an antigen, or a combination of the immunopotentiator and the antigen.

技术领域Technical field
本公开涉及纳米载体和纳米制剂领域,特别是涉及基于内含肽介导的纳米载体及其构建方法和应用以及可同时递送抗原和免疫增强剂的纳米制剂。The present disclosure relates to the field of nanocarriers and nanoformulations, in particular to intein-mediated nanocarriers, construction methods and applications thereof, and nanoformulations capable of simultaneously delivering antigens and immune enhancers.
背景技术Background technique
近年研究发现六十个拷贝的encapsulin蛋白可自装配成直径28nm的球形纳米颗粒,在抗原递送和肿瘤治疗等领域展示出较大的应用潜力。该蛋白的C端是货物分子基因插入的主要位点,用以在纳米载体表面负载货物蛋白。然而该蛋白的C端处于“亚稳定性状态”,其C端基因融合的较小蛋白分子通常因重组蛋白无法正确组装(misassembly)进而限制其应用前景。随着蛋白质组学的飞速发展,越来越多的未知蛋白被发现,迫切需要制备这些蛋白相关抗体以研究其功能。In recent years, studies have found that sixty copies of encapsulin protein can self-assemble into spherical nanoparticles with a diameter of 28nm, showing great application potential in the fields of antigen delivery and tumor therapy. The C-terminus of the protein is the main site for the insertion of the cargo molecule gene, which is used to load the cargo protein on the surface of the nanocarrier. However, the C-terminus of the protein is in a "meta-stable state", and the smaller protein molecules of the C-terminus gene fusion are usually misassembly of the recombinant protein, which limits its application prospects. With the rapid development of proteomics, more and more unknown proteins have been discovered, and there is an urgent need to prepare these protein-related antibodies to study their functions.
纳米递送技术在疫苗设计、药物靶向性运输、活体成像诊断等生物医疗领域的重要性与日俱增。目前,已有研究利用encapsulin蛋白可包裹C端带有信号肽蛋白的性质,将之开发为货物运输载体,然而该应用严重受制于纳米颗粒内部空间容量。Encapsulin纳米载体的另外一个负载技术是将其表面氨基酸定点突变为赖氨酸或半胱氨酸,用以共价偶联负载分子。但是,化学偶联的方法存在效率较低、特异性较差、副反应产物存在安全隐患等缺点,限制其应用的广度。也有研究表明encapsulin的C端基因融合负载货物分子可展示至纳米载体表面,但是亦有研究表明C端融合基因未能展示至纳米颗粒表面,其不稳定性极大地影响该方法的通用性。简而言之,利用encapsulin纳米载体递送货物备受已有递送技术的制约。Nano-delivery technology is becoming increasingly important in biomedical fields such as vaccine design, targeted drug delivery, and live imaging diagnosis. At present, there have been studies using the properties of encapsulin protein to encapsulate the C-terminal protein with signal peptide and developing it as a cargo transport carrier. However, this application is severely restricted by the internal space capacity of nanoparticles. Another loading technology of Encapsulin nanocarriers is the site-directed mutation of amino acids on its surface to lysine or cysteine to covalently couple the load molecule. However, chemical coupling methods have disadvantages such as low efficiency, poor specificity, and potential safety hazards in side reaction products, which limit the breadth of its application. Studies have also shown that the C-terminal gene fusion cargo molecule of encapsulin can be displayed on the surface of nanocarriers, but other studies have shown that the C-terminal fusion gene cannot be displayed on the surface of nanoparticles, and its instability greatly affects the versatility of the method. In short, the use of encapsulin nanocarriers to deliver goods is restricted by existing delivery technologies.
在人类后基因组时代,研究基因编码的蛋白质功能的重要性与日俱增。随着经典的遗传方法(yeast two-hybrid(Y2H)酵母双杂交)和生化相关方法(co-immunoprecipitation(Co-IP)共免疫沉淀,affinity purification(AP)亲和纯及tandem affinity purification-mass spectrometry(TAP-MS)串联亲和纯化-质谱分析)的应用,越来越多的未知蛋白被发现。实验室的研究迫切需求这些新发现蛋白的相关抗体,以探索其功能。In the post-genome era of humans, the importance of studying the functions of proteins encoded by genes is increasing day by day. With the classic genetic method (yeast two-hybrid (Y2H) yeast two-hybrid) and biochemical related methods (co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) co-immunoprecipitation, affinity purification (AP) affinity purification and tandem affinity purification-mass spectrometry (TAP-MS) Tandem Affinity Purification-Mass Spectrometry) application, more and more unknown proteins have been discovered. Laboratory research urgently needs antibodies related to these newly discovered proteins to explore their functions.
疫苗是预防和控制传染性疾病最有效、最经济的医疗干预手段。减毒或灭活病原作为传统的经典疫苗取得巨大成功,帮助人类消灭天花和小儿麻痹症。然而,传统的疫苗存在安全隐患且无法有效预防具有高频突变特性的病毒,如HIV、流感病毒等。Vaccines are the most effective and economical means of medical intervention to prevent and control infectious diseases. Attenuated or inactivated pathogens have achieved great success as a traditional classic vaccine, helping humans eliminate smallpox and polio. However, traditional vaccines have potential safety hazards and cannot effectively prevent viruses with high-frequency mutation characteristics, such as HIV and influenza viruses.
目前,亚单位疫苗备受疫苗学家关注,但亚单位疫苗免疫原性差,诱导免疫应答较弱且持续时间短,限制其临床上的应用。At present, subunit vaccines have attracted much attention from vaccinologists, but subunit vaccines have poor immunogenicity, weak inducing immune responses and short duration, which limits their clinical applications.
纳米颗粒可通过基因工程的手段,设计成多功能载体,同时递送抗原和免疫增强剂。然而负载的抗原可能严重影响纳米颗粒组装,导致重组蛋白形成沉淀,需要一系列的复性-再组装才可重新形成纳米颗粒。此外,基因融合的方法难以将抗原分子和免疫增强剂分子同时整合至同一个纳米颗粒上。Nanoparticles can be designed as a multifunctional carrier by means of genetic engineering to deliver antigens and immune enhancers at the same time. However, the loaded antigen may seriously affect the assembly of nanoparticles, leading to the formation of precipitates of recombinant proteins, and a series of renaturation-reassembly is required to re-form nanoparticles. In addition, the method of gene fusion is difficult to integrate antigen molecules and immune enhancer molecules into the same nanoparticle at the same time.
化学偶联可便捷、多态性地修饰纳米颗粒,使其多功能化,实现在纳米颗粒上共递送免疫增强剂与抗原。但是该方法效率较低、特异性差,副反应可能伴有副作用。这些缺点很大程度上限制了纳米制剂的应用。Chemical coupling can conveniently and polymorphically modify the nanoparticle to make it multifunctional, and realize the co-delivery of immune enhancer and antigen on the nanoparticle.

本公开涉及的抗原或佐剂蛋白纯化:所有的蛋白均采用Ni 2+亲和层析的方法进行纯化。不同的重组蛋白,因其性质不同,溶解度不同,采用的纯化方法略有差异。GFP-intein N-gb1、strep2-intein N-gb1、SP70-intein N-gb1、H1HA10-inteinN-gb1和rhizavidin-inteinN-gb1为可溶性蛋白,细菌裂解液上清液可直接加入Ni 2+树脂中开展亲和层析纯化。30ml NT buffer重悬后裂解细菌的上清,与1ml的树脂在4℃摇床上混匀30分钟。而后,非特异性结合蛋白随液体以重力方式流出。接着,加入含10mM、20mM、40mM咪唑的20ml NT buffer洗涤树脂,去掉非特异性结合蛋白。而后,加入500mM咪唑的NT buffer洗脱。最后,洗脱产物在1L的NT buffer中4℃透析过夜。CBLB-intein N和SP70-CBLB-intein N大部分形成沉淀,沉淀用含2M尿素的NT buffer重悬后,细菌裂解液上清液用可溶蛋白纯化的方法纯化。CBLB-intein N和SP70-CBLB-intein N大部分形成包涵体沉淀,可用含2M尿素的NT buffer重悬后,重悬液离心后上清用可溶蛋白纯化的方法纯化。 The antigen or adjuvant protein purification involved in the present disclosure: all proteins are purified by Ni 2+ affinity chromatography. Different recombinant proteins have slightly different purification methods because of their different properties and solubility. GFP-intein N- gb1, strep2-intein N- gb1, SP70-intein N -gb1, H1HA10-inteinN-gb1 and rhizavidin-inteinN-gb1 are soluble proteins, the supernatant of bacterial lysate can be directly added to Ni 2+ resin Carry out affinity chromatography purification. After resuspending in 30ml NT buffer, the bacterial supernatant was lysed and mixed with 1ml resin on a shaker at 4°C for 30 minutes. Then, the non-specific binding protein flows out with the liquid gravity. Next, add 20ml NT buffer containing 10mM, 20mM, 40mM imidazole to wash the resin to remove non-specific binding proteins. Then, 500 mM imidazole was added to the NT buffer for elution. Finally, the eluted product was dialyzed overnight at 4°C in 1L NT buffer. Most of the CBLB-intein N and SP70-CBLB-intein N formed a precipitate. After the precipitate was resuspended in NT buffer containing 2M urea, the supernatant of the bacterial lysate was purified by soluble protein purification. Most of CBLB-intein N and SP70-CBLB-intein N form inclusion body precipitates, which can be resuspended in NT buffer containing 2M urea, and the supernatant after centrifugation of the resuspension is purified by soluble protein purification.

The N-terminus of heavy chain ferritin (ferrti, shown as C in Figure 13) is genetically fused with the linker gb1-intein C to form the recombinant protein gb1-intein C- ferrtin. The recombinant proteins gb1-intein C- HFT (marked as 2 in Figure 14a-14b) and gb1-intein C- PFT (marked as 3 in Figure 14a-14b) were constructed with HFT and PFT, respectively. In Figure 14 and other figures of this application, the abscissa of all UV profile of gel filtration in this disclosure represents the elution volume, and the ordinate represents the change in absorbance at A280 nm of ultraviolet light.
取上述三种重组蛋白细菌裂解进行Tricine-SDS-PAGE电泳,结果如图14a所示,其中,control:pET28a载体空白对照菌裂解液,1:intein C-ferrtin,2:gb1-intein C-HFT,3:gb1-intein C-PFT,all:细菌裂解液,up:上清液。从图14a可见,35kDa处电泳细菌裂解液有明显条带,但相应位置上清中几乎不可见蛋白条带,表明重组蛋白intein C-ferrtin形成包涵体。35kDa-40kDa处电泳带非常明显,重组蛋白 gb1-intein C-HFT和gb1-intein C-PFT表达量均显著增高,且可溶性高。由结果可见,引入gb1能够极大地提高重链铁蛋白在细胞内的表达并改善其可溶性,有利于形成规模性制备,故重组蛋白gb1-intein C-ferrtin纳米颗粒具有用于制备纳米载体平台的可行性。 The above three recombinant proteins were lysed by bacteria for Tricine-SDS-PAGE electrophoresis. The results are shown in Figure 14a, where control: pET28a vector blank control bacterial lysate, 1: intein C -ferrtin, 2: gb1-intein C -HFT , 3: gb1-intein C -PFT, all: bacterial lysate, up: supernatant. It can be seen from Figure 14a that there are obvious bands in the electrophoresis bacterial lysate at 35kDa, but there are almost no protein bands in the supernatant at the corresponding position, indicating that the recombinant protein intein C- ferrtin forms inclusion bodies. The electrophoresis band at 35kDa-40kDa is very obvious, and the expression of recombinant proteins gb1-intein C- HFT and gb1-intein C- PFT are both significantly increased, and the solubility is high. It can be seen from the results that the introduction of gb1 can greatly increase the expression of heavy chain ferritin in cells and improve its solubility, which is conducive to the formation of large-scale production. Therefore, the recombinant protein gb1-intein C- ferrtin nanoparticles can be used to prepare nanocarrier platforms. feasibility.

如图15a及15c所示,随着GFP蛋白和strep2标签的量的逐渐增加,会促进目的产物GFP-HFT(图15a)和strep2-HFT(图15c)的量增加。固定gb1-intein C-HFT的量,增加GFP-intein N-gb1或strep2-intein N-gb1反应浓度,反应底物gb1-intein C-HFT与GFP-intein N-gb1或strep2-intein N-gb1的摩尔比例接近1:1时反应达最大程度,内含肽自剪切效率接近最高,未被剪切gb1-intein C-HFT几乎无残留。反应完成后,用GFP标签抗体、strep2标签抗体和HFT抗体分别检测反应体系中各反应底物和目的产物的变化。Western-blotting检测数据表明反式剪切效率非常高,反应彻底(图15b和15d)。可见,GFP及strep2均能被高效、特异地共价交联至HFT蛋白上。 As shown in Figures 15a and 15c, with the gradual increase in the amount of GFP protein and strep2 tag, the target products GFP-HFT (Figure 15a) and strep2-HFT (Figure 15c) will increase. Fix the amount of gb1-intein C -HFT, increase the reaction concentration of GFP-intein N -gb1 or strep2-intein N -gb1, the reaction substrate gb1-intein C -HFT and GFP-intein N -gb1 or strep2-intein N -gb1 The reaction is maximized when the molar ratio is close to 1:1, the self-cleavage efficiency of the intein is near the highest, and the uncut gb1-intein C- HFT has almost no residue. After the reaction is completed, the GFP-labeled antibody, strep2-labeled antibody, and HFT antibody are used to detect changes in the reaction substrate and target product in the reaction system. Western-blotting detection data show that the trans-shearing efficiency is very high and the reaction is complete (Figure 15b and 15d). It can be seen that both GFP and strep2 can be efficiently and specifically covalently cross-linked to the HFT protein.

如图16a,16b所示,分子量极为接近的蛋白GFP-HFT和GFP-intein N-gb1可以很好地分开,且蛋白GFP-HFT洗脱位置比GFP-intein N-gb1早,图16b中箭头所指为GFP-HFT的峰,显示该蛋白GFP-HFT以大分子聚合物的形式存在。图16d,16e所示,分子量极为接近的蛋白strep2-HFT和strep2-intein N-gb1也可以很好地分开,且蛋白strep2-HFT洗脱位置比strep2-intein N-gb1早,图16e中箭头所指为GFP-HFT的峰,显示该蛋白strep2-HFT以大分子聚合物的形式存在。将分离纯化的目的产物GFP-HFT和strep2-HFT通过透射电镜观察,GFP-HFT和strep2-HFT均以纳米颗粒的形式存在(图16c,16f)。综上,蛋白或多肽可高效剪切至HFT纳米颗粒,且不影响纳米颗粒稳定性,纳米载体模块平台可与外源蛋白高效共价偶联。 As shown in Figures 16a and 16b, the proteins GFP-HFT and GFP-intein N- gb1 with very similar molecular weights can be separated well, and the elution position of the protein GFP-HFT is earlier than GFP-intein N- gb1, the arrow in Figure 16b The peak of GFP-HFT indicates that the protein GFP-HFT exists as a macromolecular polymer. As shown in Figures 16d and 16e, the proteins strep2-HFT and strep2-intein N- gb1 with very similar molecular weights can also be separated well, and the elution position of the protein strep2-HFT is earlier than strep2-intein N- gb1, the arrow in Figure 16e The peak of GFP-HFT indicates that the protein strrep2-HFT exists in the form of a macromolecular polymer. The separated and purified target products GFP-HFT and strep2-HFT were observed by transmission electron microscope, and both GFP-HFT and strep2-HFT existed in the form of nanoparticles (Figure 16c, 16f). In summary, proteins or peptides can be efficiently sheared into HFT nanoparticles without affecting the stability of the nanoparticles, and the nanocarrier module platform can be efficiently covalently coupled with exogenous proteins.

如图19a-b所示:rhizavidin可高效偶联至HFT,目的产物可用凝胶过滤加以纯化。凝胶过滤纯化的rhizavidin-HFT经透射电镜观察以球形纳米颗粒的形式存在(图19c)。且rhizavidin与SP70以1:5的摩尔比例偶联,亦不影响纳米颗粒结构,详见图19d-f。如图19g所示,二维类平均(2D-class average)分析,白色圆圈表示目的蛋白自装配成球形纳米尺寸的颗粒,圆圈中离散分布的白色亮斑为rhizavidin蛋白(电子密度比多肽大),且亮斑平均数目与初始反应的rhizavidin-intein N-gb1和SP70-intein N-gb1的浓度一致。如图19h所示,目的产物rhizavidin-HFT与足量的生物素化的CpG结合后,蛋白条带迁移,揭示CpG被成功负载。 As shown in Figure 19a-b: rhizavidin can be efficiently coupled to HFT, and the target product can be purified by gel filtration. The rhizavidin-HFT purified by gel filtration was observed by transmission electron microscope in the form of spherical nanoparticles (Figure 19c). And rhizavidin and SP70 are coupled at a molar ratio of 1:5, and it does not affect the nanoparticle structure, see Figure 19d-f for details. As shown in Figure 19g, the 2D-class average analysis, the white circle indicates that the target protein self-assembles into spherical nano-sized particles, and the discretely distributed white spots in the circle are rhizavidin protein (the electron density is greater than the peptide) , And the average number of bright spots is consistent with the concentration of rhizavidin-intein N -gb1 and SP70-intein N -gb1 in the initial reaction. As shown in Figure 19h, after the target product rhizavidin-HFT was combined with sufficient biotinylated CpG, the protein band migrated, revealing that CpG was successfully loaded.
因此,生物素化的CpG可通过以下方法与纳米颗粒共价连接。如图18所示,①内含肽(intein)引入链球菌G蛋白B1结构域标签(gb1)构建接头gb1-intein C(图13中示为A)。人源重链铁蛋白HFT的N端与接头gb1-intein C进行基因融合构成重组蛋白gb1-intein C-HFT。24个重组蛋白gb1-intein C-HFT分子自组装成二十四聚体纳米颗粒。②rhizavidin的C端引入intein N-gb1构成蛋白rhizavidin-intein N-gb1。在2mM DTT溶液中,按摩尔比为1:1:1添加纳米颗粒、生物素化的CpG和蛋白rhizavidin-intein N-gb1,经蛋白剪接和抗生素蛋白与生物素化CpG高亲和相互作用得到CpG-HFT纳米颗粒,即为纳米佐剂给药系统。 Therefore, the biotinylated CpG can be covalently attached to the nanoparticle by the following method. As shown in Figure 18, ① the intein (intein) was introduced into the Streptococcus G protein B1 domain tag (gb1) to construct the linker gb1-intein C (shown as A in Figure 13). The N-terminal of human heavy chain ferritin HFT is genetically fused with the linker gb1-intein C to form the recombinant protein gb1-intein C- HFT. Twenty-four recombinant protein gb1-intein C- HFT molecules self-assembled into twenty-four polymer nanoparticles. ②Intein N- gb1 is introduced into the C-terminal of rhizavidin to form the protein rhizavidin-intein N- gb1. In 2mM DTT solution, the molar ratio is 1:1:1 by adding nanoparticles, biotinylated CpG and protein rhizavidin-intein N- gb1, obtained by protein splicing and the high affinity interaction between antibiotic protein and biotinylated CpG CpG-HFT nanoparticles are nano adjuvant drug delivery systems.

Figures 18a, 18d and 18g show that the unsheared gb1-intein C- HFT bands are almost invisible, indicating that the self-shearing efficiency of the nanoparticles is high. Figures 18c, 18f and 18i show that the three target products all exist in the form of nanoparticles, indicating that the nanoparticles provided in the present disclosure can be covalently cross-linked with antigens and adjuvants through self-shearing, thereby imparting different functions to the nanoparticles.

The N-terminal of human heavy chain ferritin HFT is genetically fused with the linker gb1-intein C to form the recombinant protein gb1-intein C- HFT. Twenty-four recombinant protein gb1-intein C- HFT molecules self-assembled into twenty-four polymer nanoparticles. ②Intein N- gb1 is introduced into the C-terminal of SP70 to form the protein SP70-intein N- gb1. Add nanoparticles and protein SP70-intein N- gb1 in a 2mM DTT solution at a molar ratio of 1:1, then protein SP70-HFT is obtained by protein splicing.

实验例4不同的免疫制剂的免疫效果Experimental example 4 The immune effect of different immune preparations
1.建立小鼠试验组:SP70-CpG-HFT组使用摩尔比为1:1的0.4μg/只生物素化CpG和10μg/只SP70-rhizavidin-HFT冰浴混合30分钟后,免疫小鼠。SP70-HFT+CpG-HFT组使用纳米疫苗SP70-HFT与纳米佐剂CpG-HFT共同免疫小鼠,使用剂量分别为10μg/只和1.6μg/只。纳米疫苗SP70-HFT组:SP70-HFT免疫小鼠,使用剂量分别为10μg/只。SP70-HFT+CpG组:SP70-HFT和0.4μg/只生物素化CpG共同免疫小鼠。各组小鼠5只,3次接种,每次接种间隔2周。第三次免疫2周后眼眶采血开展免疫分析。1. Establish a mouse test group: SP70-CpG-HFT group used 0.4μg/bottle of biotinylated CpG and 10μg/bottle SP70-rhizavidin-HFT at a molar ratio of 1:1 to mix for 30 minutes in an ice bath to immunize mice. SP70-HFT+CpG-HFT group used nano vaccine SP70-HFT and nano adjuvant CpG-HFT to immunize mice together, using doses of 10μg/mouse and 1.6μg/mouse respectively. Nano-vaccine SP70-HFT group: SP70-HFT immunized mice with a dose of 10 μg/mouse. SP70-HFT+CpG group: SP70-HFT and 0.4μg/mouse of biotinylated CpG co-immunized mice. Five mice in each group were vaccinated 3 times with an interval of 2 weeks between each inoculation. Two weeks after the third immunization, blood was collected from the orbit for immune analysis.

Figure PCTCN2020091636-appb-000003
注:SP70-HFT:纳米疫苗;SP70-HFT+CpG:纳米疫苗和游离CpG混合剂;SP70-CpG-HFT:SP70和CpG共递送纳米制剂;SP70-HFT+CpG-HFT:纳米疫苗和纳米佐剂联合制剂。Note: SP70-HFT: Nano vaccine; SP70-HFT+CpG: Nano vaccine and free CpG mixture; SP70-CpG-HFT: SP70 and CpG co-delivery nano formulation; SP70-HFT+CpG-HFT: Nano vaccine and nano adjuvant Agent combination preparation.
不同剂型疫苗接种小鼠后,接种3次,每次间隔2周,第三次免疫2周后眼眶取血进行ELISA分析。After inoculating mice with different dosage forms, the mice were vaccinated 3 times with an interval of 2 weeks. Blood was taken from the orbit for ELISA analysis after 2 weeks of the third immunization.
如图20a所示,ELISA分析不同方式递送CpG佐剂诱导IgG滴度。低剂量游离的0.4μg/只CpG无明显佐剂效果,纳米佐剂CpG-HFT的助力效果明显,SP70-CpG-HFT共递送纳米制剂的佐剂效果最佳。可见,低剂量的0.4μg/只游离CpG佐剂效果不明显。但是,用纳米颗粒递送的纳米佐剂CpG-HFT及抗原-佐剂共递送纳米颗粒SP70-CpG-HFT佐剂效果显著,且共递送纳米制剂诱导B细胞免疫应答最高效。这是因为共递送纳米制剂最大程度保证抗原与佐剂定位至同一个抗原呈递细胞(antigen presenting cell,简称APC),充分发挥佐剂的助力效应。使用ELISA检测不同亚型的IgG抗体滴度(1:1000),IgG亚型分析结果显示,共递送纳米制剂SP70-CpG-HFT同时明显增强Th1和Th2型的IgG滴度,见表1,其中Th2型的IgG1占比例最高。As shown in Figure 20a, ELISA analysis of different ways to deliver CpG adjuvant induces IgG titers. The low-dose free 0.4μg/CpG has no obvious adjuvant effect, the nano adjuvant CpG-HFT has obvious boosting effect, and the adjuvant effect of SP70-CpG-HFT co-delivery nano formulation is the best. It can be seen that the low-dose 0.4μg/free CpG adjuvant has no obvious effect. However, the nano-adjuvant CpG-HFT delivered with nanoparticles and the antigen-adjuvant co-delivered nano-particle SP70-CpG-HFT adjuvant effect is significant, and the co-delivery of nano-formulations induces the most efficient B cell immune response. This is because the co-delivery of nanoformulations ensures that the antigen and the adjuvant are localized to the same antigen presenting cell (APC) to the fullest extent possible to fully exert the boosting effect of the adjuvant. ELISA was used to detect IgG antibody titers of different subtypes (1:1000). The IgG subtype analysis results showed that the co-delivery of the nanoformulation SP70-CpG-HFT also significantly enhanced the IgG titers of Th1 and Th2 types, as shown in Table 1. Th2 type IgG1 accounted for the highest proportion.
2.根据本实验例的第1点建立小鼠试验组(每组5只小鼠,接种3次,每次间隔2周),分别为SP70-CBLB-HFT(10μg/只)组以及SP70-HFT(10μg/只)+CBLB-HFT(10μg/只)组,然后取血进行ELISA分析(第3次免疫两周后眼眶取血)。如图20b所示,SP70-CBLB-HFT诱导的抗体滴度低于SP70-HFT+CBLB-HFT。2. According to the first point of this experimental example, establish a mouse test group (5 mice in each group, vaccinated 3 times, 2 weeks apart), respectively SP70-CBLB-HFT (10μg/mouse) group and SP70- In the HFT (10μg/mouse) + CBLB-HFT (10μg/mouse) group, blood was taken for ELISA analysis (two weeks after the third immunization, blood was taken from the orbit). As shown in Figure 20b, the antibody titer induced by SP70-CBLB-HFT was lower than SP70-HFT+CBLB-HFT.
3.CpG作为佐剂,对B细胞免疫应答的助力效果优于鞭毛蛋白;对比共递送的CpG和鞭毛蛋白,发现CpG诱导抗体滴度更高;详见图20c。3. As an adjuvant, CpG has a better boosting effect on B cell immune response than flagellin; comparing co-delivered CpG and flagellin, it is found that CpG induces higher antibody titers; see Figure 20c for details.
4.分别取本实验例的第1~2点的各试验组小鼠的血清,以2倍为梯度系列稀释血清(50μl),与100TCID50的EV71G082(50μl)在37℃的CO2培养箱中放置1h后,加入15000个人胚胎横纹肌肉瘤细胞(human embryo rhabdomyosarcoma cells,RD cells)。感染3天后观察CPE,统计中和抗体效价。如图20d所示,对抗体中和效价分析发现,SP70-CpG-HFT、SP70-HFT+CpG-HFT、SP70-CBLB-HFT以及SP70-HFT+CBLB-HFT的抗体效价均显著高于SP70-HFT,其中以SP70-CpG-HFT诱导的抗体效价最高。4. Take the sera of mice in each test group from points 1 to 2 of this experimental example, serially dilute the sera (50μl) in a 2-fold gradient, and place them in a CO2 incubator at 37°C with 100TCID50 EV71G082 (50μl) 1h later, 15,000 human embryo rhabdomyosarcoma cells (RD cells) were added. CPE was observed 3 days after infection, and the neutralizing antibody titer was counted. As shown in Figure 20d, the antibody neutralization titer analysis showed that the antibody titer of SP70-CpG-HFT, SP70-HFT+CpG-HFT, SP70-CBLB-HFT and SP70-HFT+CBLB-HFT were significantly higher than SP70-HFT, among them, the antibody titer induced by SP70-CpG-HFT is the highest.
综上,以SP70表位为模型分析不同疫苗剂型对免疫效果的影响分析图详见图20:其中,图20a-c为ELISA分析不同方式递送CpG佐剂以及CBLB诱导IgG滴度;图20a为不同方式递送CpG对SP70IgG抗体滴度的影响,与纳米疫苗SP70-HFT相比,纳米疫苗混合游离的CpG(SP70-HFT+CpG)无明显佐剂效果。但是纳米疫苗与纳米佐剂CpG-HFT混合制剂及SP70与CpG的共递送纳米制剂SP70-CpG-HFT可显著提高特异性抗体滴度。且共递送纳米制剂效果比纳米疫苗与纳米佐剂混合制剂诱导的抗体滴度更高。图20b揭示当CBLB为佐剂,共递送纳米制剂诱导特异抗体滴度高于纳米疫苗SP70-HFT和纳米佐剂CBLB-HFT混合制剂。图20c表明CpG的佐剂效果高于CBLB。图20d体外细胞滴定分析不同疫苗制剂诱导的抗体中和效价。抗体的中和效价结果显示,共递送纳米制剂诱导的抗体中和能力最高,纳米疫苗和纳米佐剂混合制剂刺激产生的抗体中和能力次之,均明显高于纳米疫苗本身。且CpG为佐剂诱导的抗体中和滴度优于CBLB佐剂。图20e:体内致死保护分析揭示共递送纳米制剂可提供最为高效的免疫保护(75%),纳米疫苗和纳米佐剂提供的保护效果次之(50%),两者均高于纳米疫苗(25%)。免疫分析结果显示,共递送纳米制剂诱导的免疫应答最有效,纳米佐剂与纳米疫苗混合剂亦有显著佐剂效果。In summary, using SP70 epitope as a model to analyze the impact of different vaccine formulations on the immune effect is shown in Figure 20: Figure 20a-c shows the ELISA analysis of different ways of delivering CpG adjuvant and CBLB to induce IgG titers; Figure 20a shows The effect of different ways of delivering CpG on SP70IgG antibody titer. Compared with the nano-vaccine SP70-HFT, the nano-vaccine mixed with free CpG (SP70-HFT+CpG) has no obvious adjuvant effect. But the nano-vaccine and nano-adjuvant CpG-HFT mixed preparation and SP70 and CpG co-delivery nano-preparation SP70-CpG-HFT can significantly increase the specific antibody titer. And the effect of co-delivery of nano preparations is higher than the antibody titer induced by the mixed preparation of nano vaccine and nano adjuvant. Figure 20b reveals that when CBLB is used as an adjuvant, the co-delivery of the nanoformulation induces a higher specific antibody titre than the nanovaccine SP70-HFT and nanoadjuvant CBLB-HFT mixed formulation. Figure 20c shows that the adjuvant effect of CpG is higher than that of CBLB. Figure 20d In vitro cell titration analysis of antibody neutralization titers induced by different vaccine preparations. The results of antibody neutralization titers showed that the co-delivery of nanoformulations induced the highest antibody neutralization ability, and the neutralization ability of the antibodies stimulated by the nanovaccine and nanoadjuvant mixed formulation was the second, which was significantly higher than the nanovaccine itself. And CpG adjuvant induced antibody neutralization titer is better than CBLB adjuvant. Figure 20e: In vivo lethal protection analysis reveals that co-delivery of nanoformulations can provide the most effective immune protection (75%), followed by nanovaccine and nanoadjuvant (50%), both of which are higher than nanovaccine (25 %). The results of immunological analysis showed that the immune response induced by co-delivery of nano-formulations was the most effective, and the mixture of nano-adjuvant and nano-vaccine also had significant adjuvant effects.

流感病毒血凝素茎部区是通用型流感疫苗的重要靶标,其中大肠杆菌表达的H1HA10三聚体诱导的抗体可中和不同亚型的毒株。采用现有的基因融合方法进行H1HA10(简写为HA)与ferrtin融合获得重组蛋白HA-HFT。Influenza virus hemagglutinin stem region is an important target of universal influenza vaccine, in which antibodies induced by H1HA10 trimer expressed by E. coli can neutralize different subtypes of strains. H1HA10 (abbreviated as HA) and ferrtin were fused using the existing gene fusion method to obtain the recombinant protein HA-HFT.
结果详见图21:即蛋白编辑剪切技术可在HFT/PFT载体上高效负载HA抗原;其中,图21a为重组基因HA-HFT表达分析电泳图;图中,control:pET28a载体空白对照菌裂解液;all:细菌裂解液;up:细菌裂解液上清;HA-HFT:HA(H1HA10,简写为HA)与HFT直接基因融合形成重组蛋白。图21b为凝胶过滤纯化基于蛋白编辑剪切技术制备的HA-HFT的电泳分析图。图21c为凝胶过滤纯化的HA-HFT的UV曲线图。图21d为HA-HFT的透射电镜图(负染制样)。图21e为凝胶过滤纯化基于蛋白编辑剪切技术制备的HA-PFT的电泳分析图。图21f为凝胶过滤纯化的HA-PFT的UV曲线图。图21g为HA-PFT的透射电镜图(负染制样)。before:内含肽自剪切前,after:内含肽剪切后,图21b及21e中的8-19编号:分管收集凝胶过滤纯化的目的产物样品的编号(1ml/管)。The results are shown in Figure 21: the protein editing and shearing technology can efficiently load HA antigen on HFT/PFT vector; Figure 21a is the electrophoresis diagram of recombinant gene HA-HFT expression analysis; in the figure, control: pET28a vector blank control bacteria lysis All: bacterial lysate; up: bacterial lysate supernatant; HA-HFT: direct gene fusion of HA (H1HA10, abbreviated as HA) with HFT to form a recombinant protein.

如图21a所示,菌裂解液的上清液中不含有重组蛋白HA-HFT,可见重组蛋白形成包涵体沉淀。As shown in Figure 21a, the supernatant of the bacterial lysate does not contain the recombinant protein HA-HFT, and it can be seen that the recombinant protein forms an inclusion body precipitate.
采用本公开的方法将HA共价偶联至HFT形成HA-HFT,如图21b-d所示基于蛋白编辑剪切制备的HA-HFT以纳米颗粒形式存在。The method of the present disclosure is used to covalently couple HA to HFT to form HA-HFT. As shown in Figure 21b-d, HA-HFT prepared based on protein editing and shearing exists in the form of nanoparticles.
采用本公开的方法将HA共价偶联至PFT形成HA-PFT,如图21e-g所示基于蛋白编辑剪切制备的HA-PFT同样以纳米颗粒形式存在,也就是说PFT亦可负载HA。The method of the present disclosure is used to covalently couple HA to PFT to form HA-PFT. As shown in Figure 21e-g, HA-PFT prepared based on protein editing and shearing also exists in the form of nanoparticles, which means that PFT can also carry HA .
由于H1HA10需要维持天然三聚体构象,因此本公开中仅研究纳米佐剂CpG-HFT对纳米疫苗HA-HFT/PFT免疫原性的影响。Since H1HA10 needs to maintain the natural trimer conformation, this disclosure only studies the effect of the nano-adjuvant CpG-HFT on the immunogenicity of the nano-vaccine HA-HFT/PFT.

The HA group used H1HA10-intein N to immunize mice with a dose of 10 μg/mouse. The HA-HFT+CpG-HFT group used the nano-vaccine HA-HFT and the nano-adjuvant CpG-HFT to immunize mice together, and the dosages were 10μg/mouse and 1.6μg/mouse respectively. Nano-vaccine HA-HFT group: HA-HFT immunized mice with a dose of 10μg/mouse. Nano-vaccine HA-PFT group: HA-PFT immunized mice with a dose of 10 μg/mouse. In the HA-PFT+CpG-HFT group, mice were immunized with the nano-vaccine HA-PFT and the nano-adjuvant CpG-HFT at the doses of 10μg/mouse and 1.6μg/mouse respectively.
不同剂型疫苗接种小鼠后,第3次免疫2周后眼眶取血进行ELISA分析。用纳米颗粒递送HA,比HA诱导抗体滴度提高10倍。CpG-HFT的联合使用,特异性抗体梯度再次提高10倍。以PFT为载体诱导抗体滴度高于HFT。PFT与小鼠的ferrtin相似度低,可能具有一定的佐剂作用。After inoculating mice with different dosage forms of vaccines, blood was taken from the orbit for ELISA analysis 2 weeks after the third immunization. Using nanoparticles to deliver HA can induce a 10-fold increase in antibody titer than HA. The combined use of CpG-HFT increases the specific antibody gradient by 10 times again. PFT as a carrier induces higher antibody titers than HFT. PFT has low similarity with mouse ferrtin and may have certain adjuvant effects.
纳米佐剂CpG-HFT增强HA特异性体液免疫应答并调控IgG类型的分析图详见图22;其中,图22a为ELISA分析揭示纳米载体和纳米佐剂均可增强HA特异性体液免疫应答。与HA抗原相比,纳米疫苗HA-HFT可将HA特异性IgG抗体滴度提高10倍左右,纳米佐剂CpG-HFT与纳米疫苗混合制剂可进一步提高特异性抗体滴度(10倍左右)。另外,PFT为载体效果高于HFT,可能是由PFT与小鼠内铁蛋白ferritin同源性低,有一定的佐剂作用引起。人源HFT与小鼠铁蛋白高度同源(氨基酸序列99%相同),HFT蛋白自身无佐剂效果。图22b-d ELISA分析揭示,疫苗诱导抗体可特异性识别H1N1(P)、H3N2和H7H9毒株,且纳米佐剂与纳米疫苗混合制剂诱导的抗体识别能力高于纳米疫苗本身。(一抗是接种3次剂量疫苗小鼠的血清,二抗是辣根过氧化物酶HRP标记的鼠二抗)。The analysis diagram of nano adjuvant CpG-HFT enhancing HA specific humoral immune response and regulating IgG type is shown in Fig. 22; among them, Fig. 22a is an ELISA analysis revealing that both nanocarrier and nano adjuvant can enhance HA specific humoral immune response. Compared with HA antigen, nano-vaccine HA-HFT can increase HA-specific IgG antibody titer by about 10 times, and the mixed preparation of nano-adjuvant CpG-HFT and nano-vaccine can further increase specific antibody titer (about 10 times). In addition, the effect of PFT as a carrier is higher than that of HFT, which may be caused by the low homology of PFT and mouse ferritin, which has a certain adjuvant effect. Human HFT is highly homologous to mouse ferritin (99% identical in amino acid sequence), and HFT protein itself has no adjuvant effect. Figure 22b-d ELISA analysis revealed that vaccine-induced antibodies can specifically recognize H1N1(P), H3N2, and H7H9 strains, and the antibody recognition ability induced by the nano-adjuvant and nano-vaccine mixture is higher than the nano-vaccine itself. (The primary antibody is the serum of mice vaccinated with 3 doses of vaccine, and the secondary antibody is a mouse secondary antibody labeled with horseradish peroxidase HRP).
图22a显示,纳米颗粒递送HA显著改善机体响应HA的B细胞免疫应答,比HA诱导抗体滴度提高10倍,与纳米佐剂CpG-HFT联合使用,特异性抗体梯度再次提高10倍,进一步提高应答水平。以PFT为载体诱导的抗体滴度高于HFT载体,提示PFT与小鼠的ferrtin相似度低,PFT载体可能具有一定的佐剂功能。图22b-d显示,HA特异性相关抗体可识别不同亚型的流感毒株,识别亚型涵盖:H1NI的(简写P)、H3N2和H7N9(安徽毒株,简写Ahpri)。ELISA分析IgG亚型(1:10 5稀释接种不同剂型疫苗小鼠的血清)发现,CpG-HFT主要增强Th2型IgG2和IgG3免疫应答,对Th1型的IgG有很强的佐剂效果,见表3。用纳米模块负载CpG制备纳米佐剂,与负载HA的纳米疫苗联合使用,显著增强HA特异性抗体免疫应答,诱导抗体识别不同亚型的流感病毒毒株能力亦增强。 Figure 22a shows that the delivery of HA by nanoparticles significantly improves the body's B cell immune response in response to HA, which is 10 times higher than HA-induced antibody titer, and when used in combination with the nano adjuvant CpG-HFT, the specific antibody gradient is increased again by 10 times, further increasing Response level. The antibody titer induced by PFT carrier is higher than that of HFT carrier, suggesting that PFT has low similarity with mouse ferrtin, and PFT carrier may have certain adjuvant function. Figure 22b-d shows that HA-specific related antibodies can recognize influenza strains of different subtypes, including: H1NI (abbreviated P), H3N2 and H7N9 (Anhui strain, abbreviated Ahpri). ELISA analysis of IgG subclass (1:10 dilution of 5 mice inoculated with different vaccine formulations serum) found, CpG-HFT primary enhanced IgG2 and IgG3 Th2 type immune response, a strong adjuvant effect on Th1-type IgG, Table 3. Nano-modules loaded with CpG to prepare nano-adjuvants, combined with HA-loaded nano-vaccine, significantly enhance the HA-specific antibody immune response, and the ability of inducing antibodies to recognize influenza virus strains of different subtypes is also enhanced.
