Description

一种能够与人4-1BB结合的分子及其应用 技术领域
本发明涉及生物技术领域,特别涉及一种能够与人4-1BB结合的分子及其应用。
背景技术
4-1BB(CD137)属肿瘤坏死因子(TNF)受体家族的成员,由肿瘤坏死因子受体超家族成员9(TNFRSF9)基因编码,是由Kwon和Weissman在激活的鼠T细胞克隆分化筛选过程中首先发现的。Schwarzh等从人活化T细胞中分离出与鼠4-1BB具有同源性的人4-1BB,并将其命名为CD137。4-1BB是Ⅰ型膜糖蛋白,不同于PD-1/PD-L1,4-1BB的表达具有激活依赖性,其介导T细胞活化的共刺激信号,广泛存在于免疫细胞包括激活的NK细胞、活化的T细胞、树突状细胞(DC)、肥大细胞、单核细胞、中性粒细胞以及Treg细胞表面。
人的4-1BB具有255个氨基酸,在细胞表面以单体和二聚体形式表达,并且易于与配体形成三聚体,进而开启信号转导。
研究表明,4-1BB是激活型共刺激分子,其信号通路可促进T细胞,特别是CD8+T细胞的分化、增殖以及细胞因子的产生。4-1BB主要在活化的T细胞上表达,主要作用于T细胞免疫应答的中晚期。4-1BB信号通路可以通过增强肿瘤特异性CD8+T细胞功能实现抗肿瘤作用,还可以通过增强NK细胞、DC以及CD4+T细胞的免疫功能提高CD8+T细胞介导的抗肿瘤免疫应答。4-1BB募集TNFR相关因子TRAF1和TRAF2形成异源三聚体,通过c-Jun N末端激酶(JNK)途径,细胞外信号调节激酶(ERK)途径,以及通过β-catenin和AKT途径加强信号转导,并通过主转录因子NF-κB调节4-1BB信号,促使细胞因子的产生和分泌。此外,4-1BB/4-1BBL相互作用能够提高T细胞病毒感染的免疫防御作用。进一步的,4-1BB单一治疗和组合治疗肿瘤模型已经确定持久的抗肿瘤保护性T细胞记忆应答。
目前,并无关于4-1BB的激动剂药物上市,最快的处在临床研发阶段,不能满足各种疾病包括癌症的对于免疫治疗方法的需求。针对4-1BB靶点,研制一种“加速器”药物,利用现有的癌症药物(如罗氏的Rituxan)帮助激活免疫系统,开发新型肿瘤免疫疗法,适应市场需求,避免PD-1/PD-L1的耐药劣势,具有很好的应用前景。
发明公开

使用CHO-K1-hu4-1BB检测Hanke10F4单克隆抗体与人4-1BB结合活性。使用T75瓶培养待测细胞至80%满度,胰酶消化,1000rpm离心5min,收集细胞(每瓶细胞数在10 6个左右),用约1ml缓冲液重悬清洗、离心并重悬细胞,得到细胞悬液,细胞浓度为1×10 7个细胞/ml。准备各个稀释梯度的Hanke10F4抗体稀释液25μl,向加有不同浓度抗体的各离心管中加入25μl的细胞悬液混匀,最终抗体浓度如表7中所示,将加入抗体浓度为0μg/ml的抗体稀释液的离心管作为空白对照。孵育30min后,用1ml FACS缓冲液清洗两次后,加入羊抗人FITC二抗,吹打重悬,避光孵育30min。再次用1ml FACS缓冲液清洗两次,然后每管加入500μl FACS缓冲液重悬,置于冰上避光,上机检测。将抗体Utomilumab(辉瑞制药有限公司)作为阳性对照。
按照上述步骤,使用CHO-K1-cy4-1BB检测Hanke10F4单克隆抗体与猴4-1BB结合活性。

使用CHO-K1-hu4-1BB检测比较Hanke10F4、HKB6单克隆抗体与人4-1BB结合活性。使用T75瓶培养待测细胞至80%满度,胰酶消化,1000rpm离心5min,收集细胞(每瓶细胞数在10 6个左右),用约1ml缓冲液重悬清洗、离心并重悬细胞,得到细胞悬液,细胞浓度为1×10 7个细胞/ml。准备各个稀释梯度的Hanke10F4抗体稀释液25μl或者HKB6抗体稀释液25μl,向加有不同浓度抗体的各离心管中加入25μl的细胞悬液混匀,最终抗体浓度如表7中所示,将加入抗体浓度为0μg/ml的抗体稀释液的离心管作为空白对照。孵育30min后,用1ml FACS缓冲液清洗两次后,加入羊抗人FITC二抗,吹打重悬,避光孵育30min。再次用1ml FACS缓冲液清洗两次,然后每管加入500μl FACS缓冲液重悬,置于冰上避光,上机检测。

将Hanke10F4用生物素标记为Bio-Hanke10F4,标记方法同本领域常规标记蛋白方法一致。用样品稀释液将Bio-Hanke10F4稀释浓度为1.5μg/ml的溶液A。同时配制人4-1BBL-hIgG(或Hanke10F4)稀释液B,固定溶液A浓度不变,溶液B浓度为A的一定倍数(具体倍数见表9)。将溶液A和溶液B等比例混匀,与CHO-K1-hu4-1BB孵育。

通过上述步骤,实验证明Hanke10F4单克隆抗体与人4-1BBL的结合位点有竞争关系,具体结果见表10和图9所示,即该单克隆抗体在一定程度上随着药物剂量会阻断人4-1BB/4-1BBL信号通路。

使用CHO-K1-hu4-1BB比较Hanke10F4抗体与对照抗体Utomilumab、Urelumab之间表位竞争关系。二抗为SA-FITC(Biolegend公司),其他操作(除 下述外)、稀释液同步骤3.2中FACS检测。
将Hanke10F4用生物素标记为Bio-Hanke10F4,并用样品稀释液稀释浓度为1.5μg/ml的溶液A。同时配制Utomilumab、Urelumab、Hanke10F4抗体稀释液B,固定溶液A浓度不变,溶液B浓度为A的一定倍数(具体倍数见表10)。将溶液A和B等比例混匀,与CHO-K1-hu4-1BB孵育。
通过上述步骤,重复实验证明Hanke10F4单克隆抗体与Utomilumab和Urelumab的抗原结合位点有一定程度竞争关系,与Utomilumab的竞争强于与Urelumab的竞争。具体结果见表11和图10所示。

Figure PCTCN2020127993-appb-000013
3.4.2 Hanke10F4与对照抗体抗原结合表位分析
(1)方法一
将人4-1BB抗原胞外区分段用鼠4-1BB相应胞外区替代,合成不同的目的基因,分别插入pCDNA3.4载体,得到不同4-1BB抗原的DNA质粒,通过瞬转得到表达细胞表面不同4-1BB抗原的细胞株,具体见表12。用于FACS分析抗体与不同4-1BB抗原的结合活性,进而分析抗体结合人4-1BB胞外区的具体表位。
瞬转操作具体使用Expi293表达系统(Thermo Fisher)产品,根据产品说明书操作流程。在OptiMEM中分别加入Expi Fectamine转染试剂、DNA质粒得到溶液A和B,然后将溶液A和溶液B混匀得到溶液C。将溶液C加入Expi293细胞(Thermo Fisher)中,过夜孵育得到细胞表面高表达4-1BB抗原的细胞株。
其中,人4-1BB抗原全长氨基酸序列如SEQ ID No.5所示(对应编码基因如SEQ ID No.7所示),胞外区为第24-186位(对应编码基因如SEQ ID No.7的第70-558位所示)。鼠4-1BB抗原全长氨基酸序列如SEQ ID No.10所示(对应编码基因如SEQ ID No.11所示),胞外区为第24-187位(对应编码基因如SEQ ID No.11的第70-561位所示)。
利用瞬转得到的细胞株,按照步骤3.2中FACS检测步骤,依次加入抗体样品(Utomilumab、Hanke10F4或Urelumab)作为一抗与细胞孵育,然后加入羊抗人FITC作为二抗孵育,再次用FACS缓冲液清洗两次,然后每管加入500μl FACS缓冲液重悬,避光,上机检测。
根据专利及文献报道分析,Utomilumab主要结合人4-1BB胞外区的Domain 3和Domain 4,Urelumab主要结合人4-1BB胞外区的Domain1。通过上述操作,可以得知Urelumab的荧光强度趋势在细胞A和F两组降低,Utomilumab在细胞B、C和D三组降低,符合研究报道。而Hanke10F4荧光强度趋势在细胞A和F两组降低,且在细胞A组大幅度降低,降低程度远远低于Urelumab的降低程度,又因为Hanke10F4的荧光强度在细胞B组不降反增,因此说明Domain1和2A对于Hanke10F4与人4-1BB的亲和很关键,而Domain2B、3A、3B影响不大,Hanke10F4主要结合人4-1BB胞外区的Domain1和Domain 2A区域,与对照抗体Utomilumab和Urelumab的抗原结合表位均不相同(表12)。Hanke10F4与阳性对照抗体又具有一定程度的竞争关系,这种竞争关系可能由于抗原抗体的空间表位导致。

(2)方法二
根据文献分析,人4-1BB抗原氨基酸101、132位为Utomilulab关键结合位点,42位为Urelumab关键结合位点。将上述位点氨基酸逐个突变,合成不同的目的基因,得到不同4-1BB抗原的DNA质粒,瞬转得到表达细胞表面不同4-1BB抗原的细胞株(参见步骤(1)相关步骤进行),具体如表13所示。

I132R 人4-1BB 132位氨基酸I突变为R
N42R 人4-1BB 42位氨基酸N突变为R
利用瞬转得到的细胞株,按照步骤3.2中FACS检测步骤,加入抗体Hanke10F4与细胞孵育,然后加入羊抗人FITC作为二抗孵育,再次用FACS缓冲液清洗两次,然后每管加入500μl FACS缓冲液重悬,避光,上机检测,分析抗体与不同4-1BB抗原的结合活性。结果如图11所示。Utomilumab与Urelumab均与关键氨基酸突变后的抗原不结合,而Hanke10F4与上述所有抗原结合能力无明显区别,也没有显著下降现象,即说明Hanke10F 4与抗原结合的关键氨基酸与Utomilumab、Urelumab抗体不一致,Hanke10F4具体独特的抗原结合位点。
3.4.3 Hanke10F4与HKB6抗原结合表位竞争
使用CHO-K1-hu4-1BB比较Hanke10F4抗体与HKB6之间抗原结合表位竞争关系。二抗为SA-FITC(Biolegend公司),其他操作(除下述外)、稀释液同步骤3.2中FACS检测。
将Hanke10F4用生物素标记为Bio-Hanke10F4,并用样品稀释液稀释浓度为1.5μg/ml的溶液A。同时配制HKB6、Hanke10F4抗体稀释液B,固定溶液A浓度不变,溶液B浓度为A的一定倍数(具体倍数见表14)。将溶液A和B等比例混匀,与CHO-K1-hu4-1BB孵育。
通过上述步骤,实验证明Hanke10F4单克隆抗体与HKB6没有竞争关系,即两个抗体的抗原结合表位不同,具体结果见表14和图12所示。

3.5荧光素酶报告基因活性检测
HEK-293/NFκB-Luci/41-BB细胞为合肥瀚科迈博生物技术公司构建的稳定表达人4-1BB膜蛋白以及NFκB-Luciferase报告基因的HEK293细胞株。具体操作如下:将人4-1BB序列(SEQ ID No.7)作为目的基因插入pCDNA3.4载体中,得到质粒A,同时将NFκB元件序列(SEQ ID No.12)以及荧光素酶基因(SEQ ID No.13)作为目的基因,按照本领域通用方法分别插入pGL4.10载体(优宝生物)中不同位点,得到质粒B。然后用Lipofectamine 3000转染试剂(Invitrogen公司)将A、B两种质粒一起导入到HEK293细胞(中科院上海细胞库)。再加入Puromycin(Gibco)和Hygromycin B(生工生物工程(上海)股份有限公司)加压筛选,最终得到HEK-293/NFκB-Luci/41-BB。
配制加压培养基(DMEM+10%FBS+1%P/S+1ug/ml Puromycin+250ug/ml Hygromycin B),于37℃、5%CO2静态培养箱内维持培养HEK-293/NFκB-Luci/41-BB细胞。取对数生长期的细胞,胰酶消化后1000RPM离心5min,重悬于完全培养基(DMEM+10%FBS+1%P/S),将50μl细胞铺板于96孔板(Corning,3917)中,为3×10 4个/孔。将抗体与交联抗体Fab’羊抗人IgG Fc(Jackson,109-006-008)按1:2浓度比混匀后,加入96孔板,50μl/孔。在培养箱内静置18-24h后,加入100μl的ONE-Glo Luciferase assay sysytem试剂(Promega)室温孵育10min,检测化学发光值。
通过上述步骤,实验证明Hanke10F4单克隆抗体与Utomilumab均能激活报告基因表达信号,具体结果见图13中A所示。这说明Hanke10F4与Utomilumab均能激活T细胞活化信号通路,启动T细胞免疫功能,Hanke10F4的活化效应明显高于Utomilumab。

将CD4 +T细胞加入37℃孵育好包板后的96细胞培养板中,密度为1×10 5个/孔,再将96孔板放于37℃,5%CO 2培养箱中培养3天,收集细胞上清,ELISA检测细胞因子INF-γ的分泌量。
通过上述步骤,实验证明Hanke10F4抗体与Utomilumab类似,均能刺激CD4+T细胞活化并分泌细胞因子INF-γ。具体结果见图14所示。

人工合成人FcγR‖A的编码基因序列(SEQ ID No.14)以及人FcγR‖B的编码基因序列(SEQ ID No.15),然后分别按照本领域通用方法插入pCDNA3.4载体,然后分别用Lipofectamine 3000转染试剂(Invitrogen公司)导入到野生型CHO-K1细胞。再加入G418(购于生工生物工程(上海)股份有限公司)加压筛选,最终得到细胞膜高表达人FcγR‖A的CHO-K1细胞(CHO-K1-CD32A)和细胞膜表面高表达人FcγR‖B的CHO-K1细胞(CHO-K1-CD32B)。
人CD8 +T细胞分离:从健康人中抽取全血,使用淋巴细胞分离液(Sigma公司),按照其说明书操作分离PBMC细胞,并使用人CD8 +T细胞磁珠(BD公司,货号557766),根据说明书分离纯化得到人CD8 +T细胞,备用。

通过上述步骤,实验证明Hanke10F4抗体能够抑制MC38肿瘤生长,具有明显的剂量依赖性,且同等剂量条件下肿瘤抑制能力明显强于Utomilumab抗体的抗肿瘤药效几乎一致。具体结果见图16所示。
Hanke10F4给药组,肿瘤消退后,继续观察1个月,肿瘤没有复发。将肿瘤消退的小鼠再次接种4×10 6个MC38细胞,15天后,肿瘤并没有形成,如图17所示,说明Hanke10F4不仅能够抑制肿瘤生长,并且能够调动小鼠体内记忆T细胞功能,使得肿瘤不会复发,且对同型肿瘤具有免疫功能。
3.8安全性评估
3.8.1小鼠毒理实验
实验选择B-hCD137(4-1BB)小鼠检测Hanke10F4体内抗肿瘤药效。B-hCD137(4-1BB)小鼠模型是基因工程鼠,是在遗传背景C57BL/6小鼠的基因组嵌合有人源的h4-1BB基因,来自百奥赛图。
将受试小鼠随机分为4组,分别给生理盐水、Hanke10F4、Utomilumab及Urelumab,每周给药2次,给药3周,每次给药浓度为30mg/kg。给药结束后,断尾取血,检测小鼠外周血中AST(谷草转氨酶)与ALT(谷丙转氨酶)的含量。如图18,Urelumab相比于生理盐水组,AST含量显著升高,表示该抗体具有肝毒性风险,而Hanke10F4与Utomilumab的AST和ALT含量均与生理盐水组无明显区别,表明Hanke10F4与Utomilumab同样具有低毒性。
3.8.2 SD大鼠静脉注射给予Hanke10F4功能观察组合(FOB)试验
将40只SD大鼠(雌、雄各半)单次静脉注射给予Hanke10F4,设置高(30mg/kg)、中(10mg/kg)、低(3mg/kg)三个给药剂量,根据不同时间点的功能观察组合(FOB)试验,评估Hanke10F 4对SD大鼠中枢神经系统的影响。
实验期间,安慰剂对照组、Hanke10F4低剂量组、Hanke10F4中剂量组、Hanke10F4高剂量组,大鼠一般状态观察均未见明显异常。给药前和给药后0.5h、6h、24h、48h、168h,各组动物身体姿势、立毛等指标未见药物相关的异常变化。未见动物自残或攻击笼内其他动物,也未见动物死亡;各组动物出笼难易、徒手保定观察、流泪、流涎、分泌物、眼球突出、瞳孔、眼睑闭合、皮肤颜色、立毛、呼吸等指标未见异常变化;各组动物靠近反应、接触反应、惊恐反应、腹部紧张度、身体张力、耳廓反射、掐尾反射观察、平面翻正反射观察、空中翻正反射、瞳孔反射观察、眼睑反射、屈肌反应、伸肌反应等指标未见异常变化。综合结果,本实验条件下,SD大鼠单次静脉注射给予3、10和30mg/kg的Hanke10F4,对动物中枢神经系统功能无明显影响。
