Definitions

  • the present application relates to the technical field of biomedicine, in particular to a limited self-replicating mRNA molecular system, preparation method and application.
  • Messenger RNA (mRNA) therapy is a novel therapeutic modality with potential for a wide range of clinical applications, including vaccines against infectious agents as well as treatments for cancer or genetic diseases, regenerative therapies and immunotherapy.
  • the advantages of messenger RNA therapy include that messenger RNA can synthesize proteins through the body's own cells, without the need for complex protein synthesis and purification processes or production lines; intracellular and membrane-bound proteins can be used as therapeutic targets ; It can be rapidly industrialized under cell-free GMP conditions, and the cycle from research and development to products is short.
  • messenger RNA therapy is limited by factors such as structural instability, innate immunogenicity, and low delivery efficiency in vivo.
  • the development direction of this technology is as follows: First, it must avoid rejection by the innate immune system. Messenger RNA is mistaken for non-self nucleic acid, resulting in rejection, which is especially important for repeated dosing of messenger RNA therapeutics, as immune memory may limit the effectiveness of drug products.
  • some studies believe that chemical modification of the nucleotide bases of messenger RNA can reduce innate immune rejection, thereby improving the translation efficiency of messenger RNA into protein, but how to carry out nucleoside modification, the ratio of modification and how to carry out nucleotide modification combination still not clear.
  • RNA is unstable, easily degraded, and its expression lasts for a short time. Some studies have shown that common messenger RNA can only be expressed in cells for 24 hours. Self-replicating messenger RNA, because it can replicate itself, can amplify the protein translation instructions of messenger RNA, and can enhance and prolong the expression of messenger RNA protein.

  • the messenger RNA molecular system has the following defects: First, compared with non-self-replicating messenger RNA, the nucleotide sequence of self-replicating messenger RNA is much longer, and the burden on cells is heavy. It is technically difficult to synthesize messenger RNA by in vitro transcription, and the cost of industrial production is high; Secondly, the self-replicating messenger RNA molecular system is essentially an RNA pseudovirus capable of self-replication, and its viral properties are obvious, such as the number of replications cannot be predicted, and there is the possibility of infinite replication (pseudovirus reproduction in vivo), for example, vesicular stomatitis virus When antigens and rabies virus antigens are packaged into the above-mentioned self-replicating RNA, there is a possibility of amplifying its toxicity; third, the above-mentioned messenger RNA molecular system has high cytotoxicity, and because it cannot be modified by nucleosides, it will cause cell or body The

  • Positive-strand RNA viral genomes are templates for translation and replication, resulting in multilevel interactions between host translation factors and RNA replication. All known positive-strand RNA viruses carry the gene for RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) for genome replication. However, unlike other RNA viruses, positive-strand RNA viruses do not encapsidate the RNA polymerase. Thus, upon infection of a new cell, viral RNA replication does not begin until the genomic RNA is translated to produce RNA polymerase (and, for most positive-strand RNA viruses, replication factors). All characterized positive-strand RNA viruses assemble their RNA replication complexes to the inner cell membrane. Positive-strand RNA viruses produce negative-strand RNA, plus-strand RNA, double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), and subgenomic mRNA during replication, which themselves are potent inducers of the innate immune response pathway.

【背景技术】
信使RNA(mRNA)疗法是一种全新的治疗方式,具有广泛的临床应用潜力,包括针对传染源的疫苗以及针对癌症或遗传疾病的治疗、再生疗法和免疫疗法。与基于蛋白质的生物制剂相比,信使RNA疗法的优势包括信使RNA可以通过机体自身的细胞合成蛋白,不需要复杂的蛋白质合成及纯化工艺或生产线;可以将细胞内和膜结合蛋白作为治疗靶点;可以快速无细胞GMP条件下工业化生产,研发到产品的周期短等。
但是信使RNA疗法的应用受到结构不稳定、先天免疫原性、体内递送低效等因素的限制,该技术发展的方向在于:第一,它必须避免先天免疫系统排斥,先天免疫系统会将治疗性信使RNA误认为非自身核酸,从而产生排斥,这对于信使RNA治疗药物的重复给药尤其重要,因为免疫记忆可能会限制药物产品的有效性。目前有研究认为通过化学修饰信使RNA的核苷酸碱基可以降低先天免疫排斥,从而提高信使RNA的翻译为蛋白的效率,但是如何进行核苷修饰,修饰的比例和如何进行核苷酸修饰组合尚不清楚。第二,普通信使RNA不稳定,容易降解且表达持续的时间不长,有研究表明普通信使RNA在细胞中仅能表达24小时。自我复制的信使RNA,因其可以自我复制,可以放大信使RNA的蛋白翻译指令,可以增强和延长信使RNA蛋白的表达。现有技术中采用的自我复制信使RNA分子系统源自甲病毒的基因组骨架,其中编码病毒RNA复制酶部分骨架是完整的,编码病毒的结构蛋白骨架被取代为编码目标蛋白序列。该信使RNA分子系统有如下缺陷:首先,相对于非自我复制的信使RNA,自我复制信 使RNA核苷酸序列要长很多,细胞负担重,体外转录合成信使RNA有技术难度,工业化生产成本高;其次,自我复制信使RNA分子系统实质为能够自我复制的RNA假病毒,其病毒属性明显,例如无法预测其复制的次数,存在无限复制的可能(体内假病毒繁殖),例如,水泡性口炎病毒抗原和狂犬病病毒抗原被包装为上述的自我复制RNA时存在从而放大其毒性的可能;第三,上述的信使RNA分子系统的细胞毒性大,而且由于无法对其进行核苷修饰而导致细胞或者机体的免疫反应大大超过非自我复制信使RNA。
因此,有必要提供一种有限自我复制的信使RNA分子系统。

【具体实施方式】
下面将结合本申请实施例中的附图,对发明实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述,显然,所描述的实施例仅是本申请的一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本申请中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有做出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本申请保护的范围。
在本文中提及“实施例”意味着,结合实施例描述的特定特征、结构或特性可以包含在本申请的至少一个实施例中。在说明书中的各个位置出现该短语并不一定均是指相同的实施例,也不是与其它实施例互斥的独立的或备选的实施例。本领域技术人员显式地和隐式地理解的是,本文所描述的实施例可以与其它实施例相结合。
下述实施例中的实验方法,如无特殊说明,均为常规方法。
下述实施例中所用的材料、试剂等,如无特殊说明,均可从商业途径得到。
正链RNA病毒基因组是翻译和复制的模板,其导致宿主翻译因子(host translation factor)与RNA复制之间在多水平相互作用。所有已知的正链 RNA病毒均携带用于基因组复制的RNA依赖性RNA聚合酶(RdRp)的基因。然而,不同于其它RNA病毒,正链RNA病毒不将该RNA聚合酶壳体化。因此,在新细胞感染时,直至基因组RNA进行翻译以产生RNA聚合酶(对于大部分正链RNA病毒而言还有复制因子)时,才开始病毒RNA复制。所有特征化的正链RNA病毒均将其RNA复制复合体装配到细胞内膜上。正链RNA病毒在复制过程中产生负链RNA、正链RNA、双链RNA(dsRNA)和亚基因组mRNA,这些物质自身即是先天性免疫应答途径的强诱导剂。
正链RNA病毒基因组具有与细胞mRNA相同的极性,并且正链RNA病毒基因组RNA能够利用细胞翻译体系进行直接翻译。首先,合成非结构蛋白作为前体多蛋白,并通过病毒蛋白酶将其剪切成成熟的非结构蛋白。然后,在翻译和多蛋白处理后,组装包括RNA聚合酶(RdRp)、附加的非结构蛋白、病毒RNA和宿主细胞因子的复合体。组装形成的复制复合体(RC)进行病毒RNA的合成。
“RNA依赖型RNA聚合酶”或“RdRp”为一种具有催化由RNA模板从头合成RNA的酶活性的酶、蛋白质或肽。复制酶是一种具有RdRp活性,并催化特定病毒RNA复制的病毒多蛋白或多蛋白加工产物的复合体。RdRp和复制酶通常由具有RNA基因组的病毒编码。因此,复制酶不但提供RNA依赖型RNA聚合酶的功能,而且还进一步包括提供除RdRp活性以外的其它功能的额外的病毒非结构性多蛋白亚单元。
“重组载体”是指以核酸序列形式携带基因信息的基于DNA或RNA的载体或质粒。术语“质粒”、“载体”、“重组载体”和/或“表达载体”在本文中可互用。

试验分组
A组:野生型小鼠强力霉素诱导8周;
B组:Barth综合症小鼠(TG)强力霉素诱导8周,普通药物组合物(普通信使RNA系统+递送系统)治疗6周,其中,普通信使RNA系统编码Taffazin蛋白;其中,普通信使RNA系统按照现有技术CN201910014953.6中记载的方法制备。

3.5实验结果及分析:
3.5.1心脏功能指标检测结果
多重分子信使RNA治疗Barth综合症心脏射血份数超声波结果提示多重分子信使RNA治疗Barth综合症可以提高其心脏功能。
图1所示,有限复制多重分子信使RNA系统编码Taffazin蛋白治疗提高先天性心肌病Barth综合症小鼠心脏功能,具体地,Barth综合症小鼠(TG)在强力霉素诱导下Taffazin蛋白功能缺失,出现Barth综合症的症状出现心肌病疾病表型,心脏功能指标-射血份数下降,无治疗的TG5,TG6心脏功能下降,相比之下多重分子信使RNA治疗2周(TG1、2、3、4),治疗2~3周,心功能好转。
3.5.2小鼠运动能力试验结果
多重分子信使RNA治疗Barth综合症强制运动结果提示多重分子信使RNA治疗Barth综合症可以提高其运动能力。动物最初在跑步机上休息30分钟让动物适应环境,测试以10%的坡度和5米/分钟的速度开始。每5分钟逐步增加5米/分钟到最终速度,25m/min。因此,运动的持续时间为36.8分钟并且行进的距离是507.4m,结果提示模型鼠未能在皮带 上保持15m/min和10%的倾斜度,并且没有一个模型鼠能够维持运行,跑步机速度超过20米/分钟,而多重分子信使RNA治疗治疗6周后模型鼠均能够维持运,说明多重分子信使RNA治疗可以明显提高模型鼠运动能力。
3.5.3病理分析结果
图2所示,有限复制多重分子信使RNA系统编码Taffazin蛋白治疗先天性心肌病Barth综合症病理分析。
Barth综合症小鼠(TG)在强力霉素诱导下Taffazin蛋白功能缺失,出现Barth综合症的症状出现心肌病疾病表型,心脏病理提示心脏纤维化,多重分子信使RNA治疗8周明显改善心脏纤维化的程度,且优于普通信使RNA治疗效果。
