背景技术
肿瘤是一种严重威胁人类健康的疾病,近年来,随着分子生物学、基因组学及蛋白质组学的进展,陆续问世了一系列的分子靶向药物,用于肿瘤的救治。而随着免疫学的快速发展,根据细胞毒性淋巴细胞(CTL)对靶细胞的识别特异性依赖于T淋巴细胞受体(TCR)这一发现,进一步研究了将针对肿瘤细胞相关抗原的抗体的scFv与T淋巴细胞受体融合成嵌合抗原受体(CAR),并将其通过如慢病毒感染等方式基因修饰在T淋巴细胞表面用于肿瘤的治疗。这种CAR-T淋巴细胞能够以主要组织兼容性复合物(MHC)非限制性方式选择性地将T淋巴细胞定向到肿瘤细胞并特异性地杀伤肿瘤细胞。然而基于免疫效应细胞的过继性免疫治疗在部分肿瘤中取得了一定的效果,但在大多数肿瘤的疗效仍不能令人满意。

在本申请中,术语“嵌合抗原受体”(Chimeric Antigen Receptor,CAR)通常是指包含能够结合抗原的胞外结构域和至少一个胞内结构域的融合蛋白。CAR是嵌合抗原受体T细胞(CAR-T)的核心部件,其可包括靶向部分(例如,结合肿瘤相关抗原(tumor-associatedantigen,TAA)的部分)、铰链区、跨膜区和细胞内结构域。在本申请中,所述CAR可以基于抗体的抗原特异性与T细胞受体活化胞内结构域组合在一起。经遗传修饰表达CAR的T细胞可以特异地识别和消除表达靶抗原的恶性细胞。
在本申请中,术语“T细胞受体”(T cell receptor,TCR)通常是指T细胞抗原受体,其为T细胞特异性识别和结合抗原肽-MHC分子的分子结构,通常与CD3分子呈复合物形式存在于T细胞表面。大多数T细胞的TCR由α和β肽链组成,少数T细胞的TCR由γ和δ肽链组成。
在本申请中,术语“编码”通常是指多核苷酸比如基因、cDNA、或mRNA中的核苷酸的特异性序列在生物学过程中作为合成其它聚合物和大分子的模板的固有特性,该聚合物以及大分子具有确定的核苷酸序列(即,rRNA、tRNA和mRNA)或确定的氨基酸序列及由其得到的生物学特性。因此,如果与所述基因对应的mRNA的转录和翻译在细胞或其它生物系统中产生蛋白质,则基因、cDNA或RNA编码蛋白质。
在本申请中,术语“瘦素”(Leptin)通常是指一类由脂肪组织分泌的蛋白质类激素。其前体由167个氨基酸残基组成,N末端有21个氨基酸残基信号肽,该前体的信号肽在血液中被切掉而成为146氨基酸,分子量为16KD,形成Leptin。Leptin具有广泛的生物学效应,其中较重要的是作用于下丘脑的代谢调节中枢,发挥抑制食欲,减少能量摄取,增加能量消耗,抑制脂肪合成的作用。
