Description

用于检测HBcAg的方法及抗体 技术领域
本发明涉及乙型肝炎病毒(Hepatitis B virus,HBV)检测领域。具体而言,本发明提供了采用双抗体夹心法检测HBcAg的方法,以及用于上述检测的抗体及试剂盒。本发明还提供了能够用于组织或细胞样品的HBcAg免疫学检测的单克隆抗体。
背景技术
乙型肝炎病毒感染,尤其是慢性HBV感染是全球最为重要的公共卫生问题之一(Dienstag JL.Hepatitis B virus infection.N Engl J Med 2008 Oct 2;359(14):1486-1500)。
目前,HBV血清标志物(常规如:HBsAg,HBsAb,HBeAg,HBeAb,HBcAb即俗称“两对半”检测)广泛作为现症HBV感染和既往HBV感染的常规检测标准。但是,高的变异率再加上HBV携带者庞大基数导致常规的“两对半”检测的假阴性高发。并且,普通“两对半”检测无法从量上反映病毒复制性和传染性大小,常出现可怀疑难解释的结果,也无法从“两对半”指标直接确定检测个体并未感染HBV。
HBV DNA是HBV复制的直接指标,其斑点杂交检测(或PCR检测)是乙型肝炎患者和HBV携带者感染与传染性判断的金标准。PCR检测与斑点杂交检测均可作为HBV感染和传染性的直接指标,但是不适合大规模普查和常规使用。
在所有可能与HBV DNA高度相关的血清标志抗原(HBV PreS1、HBcAg、HBxAg、DNAP、HBV PreS2等)中:HBcAg一直被认为是与HBV DNA直接相关的抗原,检测在HBcAg在复制型病毒定量和HBsAg阴性的HBV感染者与HBV患者中特有诊断意义。目前市面上没有开发特异性的HBcAg检测试剂,已报道或者有研发的HBcAg免疫诊断试剂通常采取检测前对样品进行前处理(裂解病毒、破膜并灭火HBcAb)或采用迂回检测HBcAg-HBcAb免疫复合物的方式进行,前者操作复杂程序繁琐,不易被临床客户接受,也不适合用于大规模献血员筛查及流行病学调查,后者则因为检测方法的特殊性,难以达到理想的特异性和灵敏度。2006年有报道的专利“一种联合检测乙型肝炎病毒前S1抗原和核心抗原的方法及诊断试剂盒”中提到的HBcAg的检测试剂方法是采用sAg的抗体捕获病毒颗粒后进行破膜、裂解病毒检测核内的cAg,但是灵敏度不够。
开发一种简单、准确而又高灵敏度的HBcAg发光检测试剂在HBV患者抗病毒疗 效及病程预后方面都有迫切的现实意义。
发明内容
本发明人经过大量的实验研究,出乎意料地发现了特别适用于HBcAg双抗体夹心法检测的结合特定表位的抗体对。在此基础上,本发明人开发了新的HBcAg定量检测试剂盒以及检测方法。该检测方法的灵敏度能够达到与DNA相当水平,且可以实现快速、高通量检测,具备重大临床应用价值。
试剂盒

如本文中所使用的,当提及HBcAg的氨基酸序列时,其使用SEQ ID NO:17所示的序列来进行描述。例如,表述“HBcAg的第150-183位氨基酸残基”是指,SEQ ID NO:17所示的多肽的第150-183位氨基酸残基。然而,本领域技术人员理解,在HBcAg的氨基酸序列中,可天然产生或人工引入突变或变异(包括但不限于,置换,缺失和/或添加,例如不同基因型或基因亚型的HBcAg),而不影响其生物学功能。因此,在本发明中,术语“HBcAg”应包括所有此类序列,包括例如SEQ ID NO:17所示的序列以及其天然或人工的变体。并且,当描述HBcAg的序列片段时,其不仅包括SEQ ID NO:17的序列片段,还包括其天然或人工变体中的相应序列片段。例如,表述“HBcAg的第150-183位氨基酸残基”包括,SEQ ID NO:17的第150-183位氨基酸残基,以及其变体(天然或人工)中的相应片段。根据本发明,表述“相应序列片段”或“相应片段”是指,当对序列进行最优比对时,即当序列进行比对以获得最高百分数同一性时,进行比较的序列中位于等同位置的片段。
如本文中所使用的,术语“Dane颗粒”又称为大球形颗粒,是指完整的具有传染性的乙肝病毒颗粒,具有双层衣壳结构。HBcAg通常存在于Dane颗粒的核心。因此为检测HBcAg,通常需要先裂解Dane颗粒外壳,以使HBcAg暴露游离。
如本文中所使用的,术语“特异性结合”是指,两分子(即结合分子与靶分子)之 间的非随机的结合反应,如抗体和其所针对的抗原之间的反应。两分子之间的结合亲和力可用K D值描述。K D值是指由kd(特定的结合分子-靶分子相互作用的解离速率;亦称为koff)与ka(特定结合分子-靶分子相互作用的缔合速率;亦称为kon)之比得到的解离常数,或者指表示为摩尔浓度(M)的kd/ka。K D值越小,两分子结合越紧密,亲和力越高。在某些实施方式中,特异性结合某抗原的抗体(或对某抗原具有特异性的抗体)是指,抗体以小于大约10 -5M,例如小于大约10 -6M、10 -7M、10 -8M、10 -9M或10 -10M或更小的亲和力(K D)结合该抗原。K D值可通过本领域熟知的方法确定,例如使用表面等离子体共振术(SPR)在BIACORE仪中测定。
如本文中所使用的,术语“免疫学检测”是指,利用抗原-抗体之间的特异性相互作用/结合亲和力来进行的测定,其一般可用于检测特定抗原或者抗体在样品中的存在或水平。此类免疫学检测是本领域技术人员公知的,包括但不限于,酶免疫测定法(EIA)、化学发光免疫分析法(CLIA)、放射免疫测定法(RIA)、荧光免疫测定法(FIA)、Western印迹法、免疫比浊法、表面等离子共振法等。关于免疫学检测的详细描述,可参见例如,Fundamental Immunology,Ch.7Paul,W.,ed.,第2版,Raven Press,N.Y.(1989)。
如本文中所使用的,术语“抗体”是指,通常由两对多肽链(每对具有一条轻链(LC)和一条重链(HC))组成的免疫球蛋白分子。抗体轻链可分类为κ(kappa)和λ(lambda)轻链。重链可分类为μ、δ、γ、α或ε,并且分别将抗体的同种型定义为IgM、IgD、IgG、IgA和IgE。在轻链和重链内,可变区和恒定区通过大约12或更多个氨基酸的“J”区连接,重链还包含大约3个或更多个氨基酸的“D”区。各重链由重链可变区(VH)和重链恒定区(CH)组成。重链恒定区由3个结构域(CH1、CH2和CH3)组成。各轻链由轻链可变区(VL)和轻链恒定区(CL)组成。轻链恒定区由一个结构域CL组成。恒定结构域不直接参与抗体与抗原的结合,但展现出多种效应子功能,如可介导免疫球蛋白与宿主组织或因子,包括免疫系统的各种细胞(例如,效应细胞)和经典补体系统的第一组分(C1q)的结合。VH和VL区还可被细分为具有高变性的区域(称为互补决定区(CDR)),其间散布有较保守的称为构架区(FR)的区域。各V H和V L由按下列顺序:FR1、CDR1、FR2、CDR2、FR3、CDR3、FR4从氨基末端至羧基末端排列的3个CDR和4个FR组成。各重链/轻链对的可变区(VH和VL)分别形成抗原结合部位。氨基酸在各区域或结构域的分配可遵循Kabat,Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest(National Institutes of Health,Bethesda,Md.(1987and 1991)),或Chothia &  Lesk(1987)J.Mol.Biol.196:901-917;Chothia等人(1989)Nature 342:878-883的定义。
如本文中所使用的,术语“互补决定区”或“CDR”是指抗体可变区中负责抗原结合的氨基酸残基。在重链和轻链的可变区中各含有三个CDR,命名为CDR1、CDR2和CDR3。这些CDR的精确边界可根据本领域已知的各种编号系统进行定义,例如可按照Kabat编号系统(Kabat et al.,Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest,5th Ed.Public Health Service,National Institutes of Health,Bethesda,Md.,1991)、Chothia编号系统(Chothia&Lesk(1987)J.Mol.Biol.196:901-917;Chothia等人(1989)Nature 342:878-883)或IMGT编号系统(Lefranc et al.,Dev.Comparat.Immunol.27:55-77,2003)中的定义。对于给定的抗体,本领域技术人员将容易地鉴别各编号系统所定义的CDR。并且,不同编号系统之间的对应关系是本领域技术人员熟知的(例如,可参见Lefranc et al.,Dev.Comparat.Immunol.27:55-77,2003)。
在本发明中,本发明的抗体或其抗原结合片段含有的CDR可根据本领域已知的各种编号系统确定。在某些实施方案中,本发明的抗体或其抗原结合片段含有的CDR优选地通过Kabat、Chothia或IMGT编号系统确定。在某些实施方案中,本发明的抗体或其抗原结合片段含有的CDR优选地通过Kabat编号系统确定。
如本文中所使用的,术语“构架区(framework region)”或“FR”残基是指,抗体可变区中除了如上定义的CDR残基以外的那些氨基酸残基。
术语“抗体”不受任何特定的产生抗体的方法限制。例如,其包括,重组抗体、单克隆抗体和多克隆抗体。抗体可以是不同同种型的抗体,例如,IgG(例如,IgG1,IgG2,IgG3或IgG4亚型),IgA1,IgA2,IgD,IgE或IgM抗体。
如本文中所使用的,术语抗体的“抗原结合片段”是指包含全长抗体的片段的多肽,其保持特异性结合全长抗体所结合的相同抗原的能力,和/或与全长抗体竞争对抗原的特异性结合,其也被称为“抗原结合部分”。通常参见,Fundamental Immunology,Ch.7(Paul,W.,ed.,第2版,Raven Press,N.Y.(1989),其以其全文通过引用合并入本文,用于所有目的。可通过重组DNA技术或通过完整抗体的酶促或化学断裂产生抗体的抗原结合片段。抗原结合片段的非限制性实例包括Fab、Fab’、F(ab’) 2、Fd、Fv、互补决定区(CDR)片段、scFv、双抗体(diabody)、单域抗体(single domain antibody)、嵌合抗体、线性抗体(linear antibody)、纳米抗体(技术来自Domantis)和这样的多肽,其包含足以赋予多肽特异性抗原结合能力的抗体的至少一部分。工程改造的抗体变体综述于Holliger等,2005;Nat Biotechnol,23:1126- 1136中。
如本文中所使用的,术语“全长抗体”意指,由两条“全长重链”和两条“全长轻链”组成的抗体。其中,“全长重链”是指这样的多肽链,其在N端到C端的方向上由重链可变区(VH)、重链恒定区CH1结构域、铰链区(HR)、重链恒定区CH2结构域、重链恒定区CH3结构域组成;并且,当所述全长抗体为IgE同种型时,任选地还包括重链恒定区CH4结构域。优选地,“全长重链”是在N端到C端方向上由VH、CH1、HR、CH2和CH3组成的多肽链。“全长轻链”是在N端到C端方向上由轻链可变区(VL)和轻链恒定区(CL)组成的多肽链。两对全长抗体链通过在CL和CH1之间的二硫键和两条全长重链的HR之间的二硫键连接在一起。本发明的全长抗体可以来自单一物种,例如人;也可以是嵌合抗体或人源化抗体。本发明的全长抗体包含分别由VH和VL对形成的两个抗原结合部位,这两个抗原结合部位特异性识别/结合相同的抗原。
如本文中所使用的,术语“Fd”意指由VH和CH1结构域组成的抗体片段;术语“dAb片段”意指由VH结构域组成的抗体片段(Ward等人,Nature 341:544 546(1989));术语“Fab片段”意指由VL、VH、CL和CH1结构域组成的抗体片段;术语“F(ab’) 2片段”意指包含通过铰链区上的二硫桥连接的两个Fab片段的抗体片段;术语“Fab’片段”意指还原连接F(ab’) 2片段中两个重链片段的二硫键后所获片段,由一条完整的轻链和重链的Fd片段(由VH和CH1结构域组成)组成。
如本文中所使用的,术语“Fv”意指由抗体的单臂的VL和VH结构域组成的抗体片段。Fv片段通常被认为是,能形成完整的抗原结合位点的最小抗体片段。一般认为,六个CDR赋予抗体的抗原结合特异性。然而,即便是一个可变区(例如Fd片段,其仅仅含有三个对抗原特异的CDR)也能够识别并结合抗原,尽管其亲和力可能低于完整的结合位点。
如本文中所使用的,术语“Fc”意指,由抗体的第一重链的第二、第三恒定区与第二重链的第二、第三恒定区经二硫键结合而形成的抗体片段。抗体的Fc片段具有多种不同的功能,但不参与抗原的结合。
如本文中所使用的,术语“scFv”是指,包含VL和VH结构域的单个多肽链,其中所述VL和VH通过接头(linker)相连(参见,例如,Bird等人,Science 242:423-426(1988);Huston等人,Proc.Natl.Acad.Sci.USA 85:5879-5883(1988);和Pluckthun,The Pharmacology of Monoclonal Antibodies,第113卷,Roseburg和 Moore编,Springer-Verlag,纽约,第269-315页(1994))。此类scFv分子可具有一般结构:NH 2-VL-接头-VH-COOH或NH 2-VH-接头-VL-COOH。合适的现有技术接头由重复的GGGGS氨基酸序列或其变体组成。例如,可使用具有氨基酸序列(GGGGS) 4的接头,但也可使用其变体(Holliger等人(1993),Proc.Natl.Acad.Sci.USA 90:6444-6448)。可用于本发明的其他接头由Alfthan等人(1995),Protein Eng.8:725-731,Choi等人(2001),Eur.J.Immunol.31:94-106,Hu等人(1996),Cancer Res.56:3055-3061,Kipriyanov等人(1999),J.Mol.Biol.293:41-56和Roovers等人(2001),Cancer Immunol.描述。在一些情况下,scFv的VH与VL之间还可以存在二硫键。
如本文中所使用的,术语“双抗体”意指,其VH和VL结构域在单个多肽链上表达,但使用太短的连接体以致不允许在相同链的两个结构域之间配对,从而迫使结构域与另一条链的互补结构域配对并且产生两个抗原结合部位(参见,例如,Holliger P.等人,Proc.Natl.Acad.Sci.USA 90:6444-6448(1993),和Poljak R.J.等人,Structure 2:1121-1123(1994))。
如本文中所使用的,术语“单域抗体(single-domain antibody,sdAb)”具有本领域技术人员通常理解的含义,其是指由单个单体可变抗体结构域(例如单个重链可变区)所组成的抗体片段,其保持特异性结合全长抗体所结合的相同抗原的能力。单域抗体也称为纳米抗体(nanobody)。
上述各个抗体片段均保持了特异性结合全长抗体所结合的相同抗原的能力,和/或与全长抗体竞争对抗原的特异性结合。
可使用本领域技术人员已知的常规技术(例如,重组DNA技术或酶促或化学断裂法)从给定的抗体(例如本发明提供的抗体)获得抗体的抗原结合片段(例如,上述抗体片段),并且以与用于完整抗体的方式相同的方式就特异性筛选抗体的抗原结合片段。
在本文中,除非上下文明确指出,否则当提及术语“抗体”时,其不仅包括完整抗体,而且包括抗体的抗原结合片段。
如本文中所使用的,术语“嵌合抗体(Chimeric antibody)”是指,这样的抗体,其轻链或/和重链的一部分源自一个抗体(其可以源自某一特定物种或属于某一特定抗体类或亚类),且轻链或/和重链的另一部分源自另一个抗体(其可以源自相同或不同的物种或属于相同或不同的抗体类或亚类),但无论如何,其仍保留对目标抗原的结合活性(U.S.P 4,816,567 to Cabilly et al.;Morrison et al.,Proc.Natl.Acad.Sci.USA, 81:6851 6855(1984))。例如,术语“嵌合抗体”可包括这样的抗体(例如人鼠嵌合抗体),其中抗体的重链和轻链可变区来自第一抗体(例如鼠源抗体),而抗体的重链和轻链可变区来自第二抗体(例如人抗体)。
如本文中所使用的,术语“人源化抗体”是指,经基因工程改造的非人源抗体,其氨基酸序列经修饰以提高与人源抗体的序列的同源性。通常而言,人源化抗体的全部或部分CDR区来自于非人源抗体(供体抗体),全部或部分的非CDR区(例如,可变区FR和/或恒定区)来自于人源免疫球蛋白(受体抗体)。人源化抗体通常保留了供体抗体的预期性质,包括但不限于,抗原特异性、亲和性、反应性等。供体抗体可以是有预期性质(例如,抗原特异性、亲和性、反应性等)的小鼠、大鼠、兔或非人灵长类动物(例如,食蟹猴)抗体。
本发明的嵌合抗体或人源化抗体可以根据上述制备的鼠单克隆抗体的序列进行制备。编码重链和轻链的DNA可以从目标鼠杂交瘤中获得,并且使用标准分子生物学技术进行工程改造以包含非鼠(例如人)免疫球蛋白序列。
为制备嵌合抗体,可使用本领域已知的方法将鼠免疫球蛋白可变区连接至人免疫球蛋白恒定区。例如,将编码VH的DNA可操作的连接至编码重链恒定区的另一DNA分子以获得全长重链基因。人重链恒定区基因的序列是本领域已知的(参见例如Kabat,E.A.等人(1991)Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest,Fifth Edition,U.S.Department of Health and Human Services,NIH Publication No.91-3242),包含这些区的DNA片段可以通过标准PCR扩增获得。重链恒定区可以是IgG1、IgG2、IgG3、IgG4、IgA、IgE、IgM或IgD恒定区,但是通常优选为IgG1或IgG4恒定区。例如,将编码VL的DNA可操作的连接至编码轻链恒定区CL的另一DNA分子以获得全长轻链基因(以及Fab轻链基因)。人轻链恒定区基因的序列是本领域已知的(参见例如Kabat,E.A.等人(1991)Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest,Fifth Edition,U.S.Department of Health and Human Services,NIH Publication No.91-3242),包含这些区的DNA片段可以通过标准PCR扩增获得。轻链恒定区可以是κ或λ恒定区,但通常优选为κ恒定区。
为制备人源化抗体,可以使用本领域已知的方法将鼠CDR区插入人源框架序列(参见Winter的美国专利No.5,225,539;Queen等人的美国专利Nos.5,530,101;5,585,089;5,693,762和6,180,370;以及Lo,Benny,K.C.,editor,in Antibody Engineering:Methods and Protocols,volume 248,Humana Press,New Jersey,2004)。
如本文中所使用的,术语“载体(vector)”是指,可将多聚核苷酸插入其中的一种核酸运载工具。当载体能使插入的多核苷酸编码的蛋白获得表达时,载体称为表达载体。载体可以通过转化,转导或者转染导入宿主细胞,使其携带的遗传物质元件在宿主细胞中获得表达。载体是本领域技术人员公知的,包括但不限于:质粒;噬菌粒;柯斯质粒;人工染色体,例如酵母人工染色体(YAC)、细菌人工染色体(BAC)或P1来源的人工染色体(PAC);噬菌体如λ噬菌体或M13噬菌体及动物病毒等。可用作载体的动物病毒包括但不限于,逆转录酶病毒(包括慢病毒)、腺病毒、腺相关病毒、疱疹病毒(如单纯疱疹病毒)、痘病毒、杆状病毒、乳头瘤病毒、乳头多瘤空泡病毒(如SV40)。一种载体可以含有多种控制表达的元件,包括但不限于,启动子序列、转录起始序列、增强子序列、选择元件及报告基因。另外,载体还可含有复制起始位点。
如本文中所使用的,术语“宿主细胞”是指,可用于导入载体的细胞,其包括但不限于,如大肠杆菌或枯草菌等的原核细胞,如酵母细胞或曲霉菌等的真菌细胞,如S2果蝇细胞或Sf9等的昆虫细胞,或者如纤维原细胞,CHO细胞,COS细胞,NSO细胞,HeLa细胞,BHK细胞,HEK 293细胞或人细胞等的动物细胞。
如本文中所使用的,术语“同一性”用于指两个多肽之间或两个核酸之间序列的匹配情况。当两个进行比较的序列中的某个位置都被相同的碱基或氨基酸单体亚单元占据时(例如,两个DNA分子的每一个中的某个位置都被腺嘌呤占据,或两个多肽的每一个中的某个位置都被赖氨酸占据),那么各分子在该位置上是同一的。两个序列之间的“百分数同一性”是由这两个序列共有的匹配位置数目除以进行比较的位置数目×100的函数。例如,如果两个序列的10个位置中有6个匹配,那么这两个序列具有60%的同一性。例如,DNA序列CTGACT和CAGGTT共有50%的同一性(总共6个位置中有3个位置匹配)。通常,在将两个序列比对以产生最大同一性时进行比较。这样的比对可通过使用,例如,可通过计算机程序例如Align程序(DNAstar,Inc.)方便地进行的Needleman等人(1970)J.Mol.Biol.48:443-453的方法来实现。还可使用已整合入ALIGN程序(版本2.0)的E.Meyers和W.Miller(Comput.Appl Biosci.,4:11-17(1988))的算法,使用PAM120权重残基表(weight residue table)、12的缺口长度罚分和4的缺口罚分来测定两个氨基酸序列之间的百分数同一性。此外,可使用已整合入GCG软件包(可在www.gcg.com上获得)的GAP程序中的Needleman和Wunsch(J MoI Biol.48:444-453(1970))算法,使用Blossum 62矩阵或PAM250矩阵以及16、14、12、10、8、6或4的缺口权重(gap weight)和1、2、3、4、5或6的长度权重来测定两个氨基酸 序列之间的百分数同一性。
如本文中所使用的,术语“保守置换”意指不会不利地影响或改变包含氨基酸序列的蛋白/多肽的预期性质的氨基酸置换。例如,可通过本领域内已知的标准技术例如定点诱变和PCR介导的诱变引入保守置换。保守氨基酸置换包括用具有相似侧链的氨基酸残基替代氨基酸残基的置换,例如用在物理学上或功能上与相应的氨基酸残基相似(例如具有相似大小、形状、电荷、化学性质,包括形成共价键或氢键的能力等)的残基进行的置换。已在本领域内定义了具有相似侧链的氨基酸残基的家族。这些家族包括具有碱性侧链(例如,赖氨酸、精氨酸和组氨酸)、酸性侧链(例如天冬氨酸、谷氨酸)、不带电荷的极性侧链(例如甘氨酸、天冬酰胺、谷氨酰胺、丝氨酸、苏氨酸、酪氨酸、半胱氨酸、色氨酸)、非极性侧链(例如丙氨酸、缬氨酸、亮氨酸、异亮氨酸、脯氨酸、苯丙氨酸、甲硫氨酸)、β分支侧链(例如,苏氨酸、缬氨酸、异亮氨酸)和芳香族侧链(例如,酪氨酸、苯丙氨酸、色氨酸、组氨酸)的氨基酸。因此,优选用来自相同侧链家族的另一个氨基酸残基替代相应的氨基酸残基。鉴定氨基酸保守置换的方法在本领域内是熟知的(参见,例如,Brummell等人,Biochem.32:1180-1187(1993);Kobayashi等人Protein Eng.12(10):879-884(1999);和Burks等人Proc.Natl Acad.Set USA 94:412-417(1997),其通过引用并入本文)。
本文涉及的二十个常规氨基酸的编写遵循常规用法。参见例如,Immunology-A Synthesis(2nd Edition,E.S.Golub and D.R.Gren,Eds.,Sinauer Associates,Sunderland,Mass.(1991)),其以引用的方式并入本文中。在本发明中,术语“多肽”和“蛋白质”具有相同的含义且可互换使用。并且在本发明中,氨基酸通常用本领域公知的单字母和三字母缩写来表示。例如,丙氨酸可用A或Ala表示。
如本文中所使用的,术语“受试者”包括但不限于各种动物,特别是哺乳动物,例如人。

实施例1:c183抗原的制备
1.1合成构建C183克隆(其序列如SEQ ID NO:17所示),利用大肠杆菌表达体系,制备C183B抗原。
1.2纯化C183抗原
收集菌液打超声破碎,将破碎液12000rpm,10℃离心10min,留取上清。而后65℃水浴20min,留取上清。
样品对1×PB7.4透析。准备中压DEAE-FF层析(GE介质)
收集穿透峰溶液(目的蛋白)。而后过Capto Core700分子筛纯化。收集第一个样品峰即可。
实施例2:anti-HBcAg小鼠单克隆抗体的制备
2.1小鼠免疫
2.1.1免疫原的准备:免疫原为大肠杆菌重组表达的HBcAg(C183抗原)蛋白。取重组抗原稀释至0.4mg/mL,与弗氏佐剂等体积混合,使其成油包水状乳剂(判断混合液是否乳化完全的方法:可将一小滴混合液滴在清水的液面上,若混合液凝聚不散,则可认为已基本上混匀)。初次免疫使用弗氏完全佐剂,后续加强免疫使用弗氏不完全佐剂,并且融合前72h的最后一次加强免疫不加佐剂。
2.1.2小鼠的基础免疫:使用上述免疫原对6-8周龄BALB/c雌鼠进行皮下多点注射免疫,注射剂量为500μL/只/次,每次免疫前采集200μL眼球静脉血以备滴度测定。每隔2周加强免疫一次。用间接ELISA测定血清滴度,当小鼠血清滴度达到平台期后,小鼠停止免疫并休息两个月后进行融合。
2.1.3融合前72小时的免疫加强(Final boost):小鼠脾脏细胞与小鼠骨髓瘤细胞融合前72h进行脾脏免疫加强,此次加强的免疫原不含佐剂,取100μl 0.5mg/mL的重组蛋白进行注射。其中脾脏免疫前,需先用乙醚麻醉小鼠,剖开腹腔外皮取出脾脏,沿脾脏纵向注射100μL抗原,迅速手术缝合腹皮切口。
2.2融合杂交瘤的制备与筛选
融合前72h加强免疫后,取小鼠脾脏制成细胞悬液与小鼠骨髓瘤细胞Sp2/0进行细胞融合,以获得杂交瘤细胞。在此之前先制备饲养细胞。在杂交瘤细胞的培养过程中,融合后的大量骨髓瘤细胞和脾细胞在1640-HAT培养液中相继死亡,单个细胞或少数分散的细胞不易存活,必须加入其他细胞方能使之生存,这种被加入的活细胞称为饲养细胞。本实验室使用小鼠腹腔巨噬细胞或13天龄的小鼠胸腺细胞作为饲养细胞。
2.2.1小鼠巨噬细胞的制备:分如下步骤进行:(i)将一只6周龄左右的BALB/c小鼠引颈处死,自来水冲洗,浸泡于75%乙醇溶液中5min;放入超净工作台,使小鼠 腹部朝上;用镊子提起小鼠腹部皮肤,剪一小口,用大镊子向上下方向撕拉开皮肤,充分暴露腹部。(ii)用无菌眼科镊子提起腹膜,然后用5mL注射器向腹腔内注入适量培养液,用另一无菌眼科镊子轻微提动小鼠四肢,最后利用注射器吸出培养液于离心管中。(iii)将腹腔细胞液溶解于HAT培养液或HT培养液中,使成浓度为2×10 5/mL的巨噬饲养细胞。(iv)加入96孔细胞培养板,每孔0.1mL,置培养箱培养;也可直接与融合细胞混合后添加到96孔细胞培养板中。
2.2.2小鼠胸腺细胞的制备:分如下步骤进行(i)将一只13天龄左右的BALB/c小鼠引颈处死,自来水冲洗,浸泡于75%乙醇溶液中5min;放入超净工作台,使小鼠腹部朝上;(ii)用镊子提起小鼠腹部皮肤,将腹部和胸部的外皮剪开。(iii)用另一把干净的剪刀剪开胸腔,用镊子取出乳白色的胸腺,经研磨后通过200目细胞筛,得到胸腺饲养细胞液。
2.2.3小鼠骨髓瘤细胞的制备:分如下步骤进行。(i)小鼠骨髓瘤细胞株Sp2/0-Ag14(Sp2/0)易培养,融合率高,是目前最理想的融合细胞,但Sp2/0杂交瘤细胞系对培养条件的变化比NS-1敏感,过度稀释(密度低于3×10 5/mL)和pH碱性(pH高于7.3)时生长不良。(ii)选择对数生长期的细胞进行融合。(iii)融合前从培养瓶移出骨髓瘤细胞于离心管,用RPMI-1640培养液洗3次(1000rpm×5min)。用RPMI-1640培养液重悬细胞,计数。(iv)一般融合前5天开始复苏小鼠骨髓瘤细胞,每次融合约需6瓶35cm 2Sp2/0细胞。
2.2.4免疫脾细胞的制备:分如下步骤进行。(i)取待融合的BALB/C小鼠,摘除眼球放血致小鼠死亡,收集的血液制成抗血清,可作抗体检测的阳性对照。自来水冲洗,浸泡于75%乙醇溶液中5min,随即放入超净台内小鼠解剖板上,右侧卧位。(ii)无菌手术打开腹腔取出脾脏,用剪刀剪成小块放于200目细胞筛网上,再用研磨棒(注射器内芯)挤压研磨,同时用吹管滴加RPMI-1640培养液。(iii)补加适量RPMI-1640培养液,静置3-5min,取上2/3部分悬液移入50mL塑料离心管中。上述过程反复2-3次。(iv)用RPMI-1640培养液洗细胞3次(1000rpm×10min)。(v)用RPMI-1640培养液重悬细胞,计数。
2.2.5使用PEG促融剂融合制备杂交瘤:分如下步骤进行。(1)融合前先将1mL的PEG-1500和10mL的RPMI-1640无血清培养基和200mL完全培养基预温至37℃。(ii)将制备的骨髓瘤细胞与脾细胞混合于50mL离心管内(1×10 8脾细胞+1×10 7骨髓瘤细胞,约10:1),离心1500rpm×8min,离心后,轻轻弹击管底,使细胞疏松成 糊状。(iii)1mL吸管吸取0.8mL(按1×10 8脾细胞+0.8mL PEG)加入离心管内,边加边轻轻搅拌,PEG平均在60s内加完,随即加入10mL预温至37℃的RPMI-1640完全培养液,搅拌要温和。最后补加RPMI-1640培养液至40mL,离心1000rpm×5min。(iv)弃上清液,取少量HT培养液将细胞小心吹散,将细胞移入准备好的HT培养液中,加入96孔细胞培养板,每孔0.1mL,放入CO2孵育箱中培养。(v)12h后,配置适量的HAT完全培养基,每个孔中滴加0.1mL;5天后,用HT完全培养基给孔中的细胞上清进行50-100%的换液;大约9-14天后,吸取上清检测。
2.2.6杂交瘤的筛选:间接ELISA筛选,包被重组抗原100ng/mL,每孔包被0.1mL,加入细胞上清50uL检测,并挑选出阳性克隆孔。
2.2.7杂交瘤细胞的克隆化:采用有限稀释法,先把细胞按一定浓度进行梯度稀释,然后接种到96孔细胞培养板的每个孔中,尽可能使孔内只有一个细胞生长。杂交瘤单克隆阳性细胞株一般需要重复克隆2-3次,直到100%阳性后确认为稳定克隆株。
2.3单抗腹水的生产
取BALB/c小鼠2-3只,经腹腔注入0.5mL液体石蜡油。1周后,将对数生长期的杂交瘤细胞以1000rpm离心5min,弃上清液。杂交瘤细胞用无血清培养液悬浮,并将细胞数调至(1-2)×10 6/mL,每只小鼠腹腔注射0.5mL。7-10d后,小鼠腹部明显膨大后,引颈处死小鼠,自来水冲洗,浸洗,浸泡于75%乙醇中5min,使小鼠腹部朝上用注射针头固定四肢于小鼠解剖台板。用镊子提起小鼠腹部皮肤,剪一小口,然后从两边向小鼠背部方向剪开,用大镊子向上下方向撕开皮肤,充分暴露腹部。用无菌眼科镊子提取腹膜,将腹膜中央处剪一小口,然后用1mL吸管通过小口吸出腹腔内全部腹水。收集的腹水可以混合,置离心管离心,3000rpm,20min。离心后收集上清。

实施例10:2A7单抗的其他免疫学检测的应用
10.1 2A7作为HBcAg免疫荧光检测抗体的用途
将HepG2(获自厦门大学国家传染病诊断试剂与疫苗工程技术研究中心实验室)及稳定整合HBV1.1倍体基因组的HepG2-N10细胞(获自厦门大学国家传染病诊断试剂与疫苗工程技术研究中心实验室)以每孔60000个细胞铺24孔板,待12h细胞贴壁后,吸掉培养基,用20mM PBS洗一次,4%多聚甲醛固定15min后再以0.02%Triton x-100通透细胞10min,2%BSA封闭1h后将2A7单抗(1mg/ml)以1:1000的稀释比例稀释到2%BSA中,室温孵育1h后PBS洗4次,荧光二抗为羊抗鼠-Alexa488(Beyotime,产品编号:A0428),室温孵育40min后PBS洗4次并用DAPI染料对细胞核进行染色,实验完成后用Opera phenix激光共聚焦高内涵成像系统63倍水镜拍摄。
结果如图5所示,2A7对整合了HBV基因组的HepG2-N10细胞有明显的胞质免疫反应,但对未整合HBV基因组的细胞没有结合,具备良好的特异性。上述结果说明2A7能够作为HBcAg的免疫荧光抗体进行准确检测。
10.2 2A7作为HBcAg免疫组化检测单抗的用途
目前在HBcAg免疫组化检测中所采用的抗HBcAg抗体为多克隆抗体,但是多克隆抗体往往具有背景较高而特异性较低,并且应用其进行的免疫组化结果不易标准化等缺点,但是目前尚无抗HBcAg单克隆抗体用于免疫组化检测的报道。本实验考察2A7单抗作为免疫组化检测抗体的性能。
取HBV转基因鼠HBV-TG(获自厦门大学国家传染病诊断试剂与疫苗工程技术研究中心实验室)和正常C57BL/6小鼠(获自上海斯莱克实验动物有限责任公司)的肝 组织石蜡切片,进行脱蜡、复水、抗原修复、清洗、封闭,而后加入anti-HBc商品化多克隆抗体和2A7单抗,室温反应1h,而后清洗,加入二抗室温反应10min,再清洗后加入显色液染色反应,最后进行盐酸分化、复染、封片。
结果见图6,与商业化多克隆抗体类似,2A7单抗能够准确检测HBV转基因鼠的组织石蜡切片,并且对正常小鼠的组织石蜡切片无结合,表明2A7也能够作为HBcAg的免疫组化抗体进行准确检测。
尽管本发明的具体实施方式已经得到详细的描述,但本领域技术人员将理解:根据已经公布的所有教导,可以对细节进行各种修改和变动,并且这些改变均在本发明的保护范围之内。本发明的全部分为由所附权利要求及其任何等同物给出。
