Definitions

  • the present invention belongs to the field of immunology. Specifically, the present invention relates to an anti-CD28 antibody and its application.
  • CD28 is a co-stimulatory molecule expressed on the surface of T lymphocytes and plays an important role in the activation of T cells. It binds to B7 molecules on APCs (antigen presenting cells), mediates co-stimulation of T cells and promotes their survival, proliferation and cytokine production.
  • APCs antigen presenting cells
  • the complete activation of naive T cells usually requires three signals, the first signal is the combination of antigen and antigen receptor, the second signal is co-stimulatory signal, and the third signal is cytokine signal.
  • CD28 is involved in the reception of the second signal.
  • TCR peptide-major histocompatibility complex
  • helper T cells helper T cells
  • Tc cells cytotoxic T cells
  • T cell receptor T cell receptor
  • TCR and pMHC will lead to the phosphorylation of ITAM on the CD3 chain immediately adjacent to TCR by Lck kinase.
  • Other intracellular signal transduction-related enzymes are then recruited here, making contacts with the CD4 or CD8 co-receptors and the cytoplasmic tail of the CD3 chain. Together, these enzymes mediate an enzymatic cascade of chemical reactions that lead to the activation of multiple other enzymes. When this activation cascade occurs across multiple TCRs, T cells receive the first signal (Mak, Saunders et al. 2013, Primer to the immune response, Newnes.).
  • the combination of TCR and pMHC is not sufficient to fully activate a naive Th cell or Tc cell, and a second signal in the form of co-stimulatory signaling is required.
  • Th cells after receiving the first signal, the expression of CD28, an important co-stimulatory molecule on the surface of Th cells, is up-regulated.
  • CD28 in order for CD28 to transmit the second signal to the Th cell nucleus, it must combine with the ligand B7 molecule on the surface of DC presenting activated pMHC.
  • the activation of T cells is the basis for the continued proliferation and differentiation of T cells, and the complete activation of T cells requires the joint participation of the first signal and the second signal.
  • T cells are recognized by the TCR, which is the first signal for T cell activation.
  • TCR and CD3 molecule form a TCR-CD3 complex, and the function of CD3 molecule is to transduce the activation signal generated by TCR recognition antigen.
  • the second signal (or co-stimulatory signal) is generated by the interaction between co-stimulatory molecules on the surface of APC or target cells and corresponding co-stimulatory molecules on the surface of T cells, and CD28 is an extremely important co-stimulatory molecule in T cell activation.
  • the first CD28 super agonistic antibody Theralizumab (TGN1412, TAB08) was designed for the treatment of autoimmune-related diseases (Attarwala 2010, J Young Pharm 2(3):332-336.), and began to be used for the first time in 2006. clinical trial.
  • Theralizumab is currently used in Phase II clinical trials for the treatment of Merkel cell carcinoma, rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and psoriasis.
  • the CD28 target lies more in the development of antagonist drugs.
  • FR-104 (JNJ-3133) of OSE Immunotherapeutics is a PEGylated monovalent anti-CD28 Fab antibody, which is used for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, organ transplant rejection, and postoperative complications.
  • Bristol-Myers Squibb's Lulizumab is also an antagonist antibody against the CD28 domain and is used to treat systemic lupus erythematosus and Sjogren-Larsson syndrome.
  • Other CD28-related drugs, such as oncolytic virus products, gene therapy products, and fusion protein products are also in the clinical research stage for indications such as tumors, transplant complications, and autoimmune diseases.
