Definitions

  • the invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, and particularly relates to anti- ⁇ v ⁇ 8 antibodies or antigen-binding fragments and applications thereof.
  • TGF ⁇ cytokine transforming growth factor beta
  • LAP propeptide
  • LAP latency associated domain
  • TGF ⁇ regulates the function of regulatory T cells and the homeostasis of immune precursor cells.
  • TGF ⁇ signaling can promote fibroblast populations and ECM aggregation.
  • TGF ⁇ signaling promotes tumor angiogenesis, alters the stromal environment, and suppresses the activity of the immune system.
  • enhanced TGF ⁇ signaling can lead to diseases such as cardiovascular stenosis and glomerulosclerosis.
  • Integrins are cell surface receptors that generally contain two non-covalently bound ⁇ subunits and ⁇ subunits, mainly involved in cell-to-cell and cell-to-extracellular matrix (ECM) adhesion and signaling Conduction provides adhesion and other functions for cell growth, migration and differentiation during organ development and tissue damage.
  • the binding specificity of integrins is generally determined by ⁇ subunits and ⁇ subunits. At present, 18 kinds of ⁇ subunits and 8 kinds of ⁇ subunits have been identified, a total of 24 different combinations of ⁇ subunits and ⁇ subunits (FGGiancotti et al. , et.al., Science, 285, 1028-1032, 1999).
  • ⁇ v ⁇ 8 is a member of the integrin superfamily. ⁇ v ⁇ 8 can bind to L-TGF ⁇ , so that TGF ⁇ is released from its precursor (Latent TGF-beta, L-TGF ⁇ ), resulting in the mature activation of TGF ⁇ 1 and TGF ⁇ 3 (Mu et al. (2002) J.Cell Biol.159: 493). ⁇ v ⁇ 8 is distributed in epithelial cells, neuronal tissues and mesenchymal cells. Moreover, Treg cells can activate TGF ⁇ by expressing ⁇ v ⁇ 8, thereby inhibiting immune activity.
  • the present invention provides antibodies or antigen-binding fragments that specifically bind to ⁇ v ⁇ 8.
  • the antibodies or antigen-binding fragments provided herein are isolated antibodies or antigen-binding fragments.
  • the present invention provides antibodies or antigen-binding fragments that specifically bind human ⁇ v ⁇ 8 or monkey ⁇ v ⁇ 8. After the anti- ⁇ v ⁇ 8 antibody of the present invention specifically binds to ⁇ v ⁇ 8, it can block the combination of ⁇ v ⁇ 8 and L-TGF ⁇ , thereby locally inhibiting the signal of TGF ⁇ , reducing side effects and treating diseases related to TGF ⁇ signal.
