Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of biomedicine, and in particular to a modified immune cell.
- the present invention discloses a modified immune cell that overexpresses nuclear factor- ⁇ B (NF- ⁇ B) family transcription factors and the use of the modified immune cell.
- NF- ⁇ B nuclear factor- ⁇ B
- the three most important transcription factor families are AP-1, NFAT and NF- ⁇ B, which are the three transcription factor families mainly expressed by T cells after TCR activation.
- the NF- ⁇ B family consists of five members: P50 (precursor P105), P52 (precursor P100), P65, c-Rel and RelB. These five members all have an N-terminal Rel homology domain RHD, which is responsible for its binding to DNA and dimerization.
- the classical NF- ⁇ B signal originates from the heterodimer of RelA and p50 and the heterodimer of c-Rel and p50; the non-classical NF- ⁇ B signal originates from the heterodimer of RelB and p52.
- RelA, c-Rel and RelB there is a transcription activation region that positively regulates gene expression.
- p50 and p52 proteins do not have transcription activation regions, so their homodimers will inhibit transcription.
- NF- ⁇ B signaling is regulated by a variety of membrane receptors, including B lymphoid receptors.
- B lymphoid receptors In T cells, NF- ⁇ B transcription factors mainly receive signals from the T lymphoid receptor and tumor necrosis factor receptor TNFR family, among which non-classical NF- ⁇ B is mainly regulated by TNFR signals (Philipson B I, O'Connor R S, May M J, et al. 4-1BB costimulation promotes CAR T cell survival through noncanonical NF- ⁇ B signaling. Science signaling, 2020).
- P52 is a transcription factor of the non-canonical NF- ⁇ B family, and its precursor protein is p100 encoded by the Nfkb2 gene.
- p100 When non-canonical NF- ⁇ B signaling is not activated, p100 will form a strong dimer with RelB, another transcription factor of the NF- ⁇ B family, and cannot enter the nucleus; when non-canonical NF- ⁇ B is activated, p100 will be After phosphorylation, it is ubiquitinated and cleaved to p52, and combines with RelB to form a dimer and enters the nucleus, thereby regulating downstream gene expression (Shao-cong Sun.
- NF- ⁇ B-inducing kinase forms a complex with tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor (TRAF) and cIAP and is ubiquitinated, making it unable to phosphorylate oxidizes downstream IKK ⁇ , leading to the formation of a complex between RelB and p100 to prevent nuclear entry.
- TRAF3 After the tumor necrosis factor receptor binds to its ligand, TRAF3 will be recruited and ubiquitinated, causing NIK to be phosphorylated and phosphorylated downstream IKK ⁇ , ultimately causing p100 to be phosphorylated and cleaved into p52 to bind to RelB Incorporated into the core.
- Chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T) therapy is an anti-cancer immunotherapy that has achieved good results in recent years. Unlike the way natural T cells recognize tumor cells, the recognition of tumor cells by CAR-T cells does not rely on MHC molecules.
- the CAR molecule consists of three parts: the extracellular region is the antigen recognition domain derived from the antibody, responsible for recognizing the target antigen; the transmembrane region; and the intracellular region is the signaling molecule and co-stimulatory signaling molecule derived from the T cell receptor, responsible for Transmits T cell activation signals after receiving stimulation.
- the T cell receptor (TCR) complex molecule contains multiple chains.
- the TCR ⁇ chain and TCR ⁇ chain are responsible for recognizing MHC-peptide molecules.
- the other six CD3 subunits combine with the TCR ⁇ / ⁇ chain to perform signal transduction.
- the natural TCR complex contains a total of 10 ITAM signal sequences, which can theoretically conduct stronger signals than CAR. Previous studies have shown that although TCR signals are conducted more slowly than CAR signals, TCR signals are more persistent. Therefore, by utilizing the signaling function of natural TCR, a new type of receptor can be constructed to alleviate T cell incompetence and enable it to better exert its anti-solid tumor effect.
- the extracellular region of the TCR is very similar to the Fab domain of the antibody, so the TCR variable region sequence can be replaced with the antibody variable region sequence to obtain the synthetic T cell receptor antigen receptor (Snythetic TCR and Antigen Receptor, STAR). It has both the specificity of antibodies and the superior signaling function of natural TCR, which can mediate complete T cell activation.

- the secreted antibody (Antibody, Ab) or B cell receptor (BCR) produced by B cells has great similarities with the T cell receptor (TCR) in gene structure, protein structure and spatial conformation.
- Both antibodies and TCRs are composed of variable regions and constant regions.
- the variable regions play a role in antigen recognition and binding, while the constant region domains play a role in structural interaction and signal transduction.
- a synthetic chimeric molecule can be constructed by replacing the variable regions of TCR ⁇ and ⁇ chains (or TCR ⁇ and ⁇ chains) with the heavy chain variable region (VH) and light chain variable region (VL) of the antibody. , called Synthetic T-Cell Receptor and Antibody Receptor, STAR/WT-STAR), its structure is shown in WT-STAR on the left side of Figure 1.
- the STAR molecule has two chains.
- the first chain is the fusion of the antigen recognition sequence (such as the variable region VH of the heavy chain of the antibody) and the constant region (C ⁇ ) of the T cell receptor ⁇ chain (TCR ⁇ ).
- the second chain is The chain is the fusion of the antigen recognition sequence (such as the variable region VL of the light chain of the antibody) and the constant region (C ⁇ ) of the T cell receptor ⁇ chain (TCR ⁇ ).
- the antigen recognition domain such as VH, VL or scFv, etc.
- the constant region domain the constant regions of TCR ⁇ , ⁇ , ⁇ and ⁇
- the first and second chains of the STAR molecule After the first and second chains of the STAR molecule are expressed in T cells, they will combine with the endogenous CD3 ⁇ , CD3 ⁇ , and CD3 ⁇ chains in the endoplasmic reticulum to form an 8-subunit complex, which will be displayed in the form of a complex. on the cell membrane surface.
- Immunoreceptor Tyrosine-based Activation Motif is a motif that plays a signal transduction role in TCR molecules, and its conserved sequence is YxxL/V.
- the intracellular region of the CD3 ⁇ , ⁇ , ⁇ , and ⁇ chains contains 1 ITAM sequence, and the intracellular region of the CD3 ⁇ chain contains 3 ITAM sequences, so a complete STAR complex contains a total of 10 ITAM sequences.
- the intracellular ITAM sequence When the antigen recognition sequence of the STAR receptor binds to its specific antigen, the intracellular ITAM sequence will be phosphorylated one after another, thereby activating downstream signaling pathways, activating transcription factors such as NF- ⁇ , NFAT and AP-1, and triggering T cell activation. , produce effect function.
- the inventor's previous research showed that compared with conventional chimeric antigen receptor CAR, STAR can better activate T cells, and the background activation in the absence of antigen stimulation is significantly reduced, thus having significant advantages (see Chinese Invention Patent application number: 201810898720.2). However, further improvements to STAR are still expected.
- the STAR prototype design uses the constant region sequence of the TCR ⁇ / ⁇ chain (or TCR ⁇ and ⁇ chain) of human origin (wild-type human TCR ⁇ constant region, SEQ ID NO:1; wild-type human TCR ⁇ constant region, SEQ ID NO:2 ). Due to the functional conservation of the constant region sequences of human, primate and mouse TCR ⁇ / ⁇ chains (wild-type mouse TCR ⁇ constant region, SEQ ID NO:3; wild-type mouse TCR ⁇ constant region, SEQ ID NO:4) They are highly homogeneous and have the same key amino acid sequences, so they can be replaced with each other.
- the inventors replaced the constant region of the STAR molecule with a mouse sequence to enhance the function of the STAR molecule after being transferred into human T cells.
- cysteine point mutations on the STAR molecule to introduce intermolecular disulfide bonds, enhance the mutual pairing between the two chains of the STAR molecule, and reduce the mismatch with the endogenous TCR.
- the threonine T at position 48 is mutated to cysteine C (mouse TCR ⁇ C-Cys, SEQ ID NO: 5) in the constant region of the TCR ⁇ chain
- the serine S at position 56 is mutated to cysteine in the constant region of the TCR ⁇ chain.
- C (mouse TCR ⁇ C-Cys, SEQ ID NO: 6).
- the inventors substituted hydrophobic amino acids in the transmembrane region of the STAR molecule to increase the stability of the STAR molecule and help it function more permanently. Specifically, three amino acid sites were mutated in the transmembrane region of the TCR ⁇ chain constant region from 111 to 119 amino acids: serine S at position 112 was changed to leucine L, and methionine M at position 114 was changed to hetero.
- Leucine I and glycine G at position 115 become leucine V.
- the overall amino acid sequence of this region changed from LSVMGLRIL to LLVIVLRIL.
- This modification is called mouse TCR ⁇ C-TM9, and the resulting ⁇ chain constant region sequence is SEQ ID NO:7.
- This design increases the hydrophobicity of the transmembrane region and offsets the instability caused by the positive charge carried by the TCR transmembrane region, allowing the STAR molecule to exist more stably on the cell membrane, thereby obtaining better functions. Its structure See Mut-STAR on the right side of Figure 1.
- STARs that contain constant region murine sequences, constant region cysteine substitutions, and constant region hydrophobic amino acid substitutions are called mut-STARs.
- Example 2 In vitro effects of STAR-T cells overexpressing the non-canonical NF- ⁇ B transcription factor p52
- costimulatory factors 41BB, OX40, etc. from TNFR family receptors
- overexpressing costimulatory factors can improve the proliferation ability of T cells.
- the regulation within T cells is very complex, and the in vitro signals after overexpression of co-stimulatory factors may not be effectively transmitted to the nucleus after complex regulation in vivo, resulting in the weakening and reduction of the signals.
- the present invention directly overexpresses the most important downstream transcription factors of the TNFR family to enhance the signals and functions provided by costimulatory factors. This can bypass the complex regulatory pathways in cells and directly act on the cell nucleus to enhance the proliferation and effector capabilities of T cells. .
- STAR-T or CAR-T cells (1) improve T cell proliferation ability; (2) improve T cell effector survival time; (3) increase the number of T cells in the body; (4) induce T cells to Effector T cell differentiation; (5) Reduce the expression of T cell inhibitory receptors; (6) Increase the proportion of CD8+ T cells; (7) Significantly shrink the patient's tumor; (8) Prolong the survival time of tumor patients; (9) Improve The inventors further modified STAR-T or CAR-T cells for their tumor-killing ability and ability to infiltrate into the tumor microenvironment and kill target cells efficiently.
- the non-classical NF- ⁇ B transcription factor refers to the non-full-length protein p52 encoded by the gene Nfkb2 (its coding sequence is SEQ ID NO: 8, and its amino acid sequence is SEQ ID NO: 9).
- Nfkb2 its coding sequence is SEQ ID NO: 8
- its amino acid sequence is SEQ ID NO: 9.
- TNF receptor family members When specific TNF receptor family members are stimulated by ligands (including: LT ⁇ R, CD40, CD27, CD30, BAFF-R, etc.), these members inhibit the action of TFAF3 on NF- ⁇ B-inducing kinase (NIK) by recruiting TRAF2 and TRAF3. Phosphorylation, in turn, causes NIK to phosphorylate IKK ⁇ . The phosphorylated IKK ⁇ phosphorylates p100 and is further processed by the proteasome into p52, which forms a heterodimer with RelB and enters the nucleus, and induces the expression of downstream genes.
- ligands including: LT ⁇ R, CD40, CD27, CD30, BAFF-R, etc.
- the vectors used in this example including viral vectors, plasmid vectors, etc., were purchased from or synthesized by commercial companies, and the full-length sequences of these vectors were obtained, and clear enzyme cleavage sites were known.
- the gene fragments used in this example such as the STAR variable region, TCR constant region, p52 coding sequence, tag sequence, and linker, were all synthesized from commercial companies and connected by PCR.
- a mut-STAR containing the VH shown in SEQ ID NO:10 and the VL shown in SEQ ID NO:11 (derived from the EGFR-targeting cetuximab Cetuximab) and the corresponding CAR (BBz or 28z CAR ), or a mut-STAR containing the VH shown in SEQ ID NO:12 and the VL shown in SEQ ID NO:13 (derived from the CD19-targeting antibody FMC63) and the corresponding CAR (BBz or 28z CAR), verifying the overexpression of SEQ Optimization of STAR-T or CAR-T cells by p52 shown in ID NO:9.
- Red fluorescent protein with the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:14 was used to replace p52 as a control group.
- the STAR vector structure is shown in Figure 2, in which the overexpression of p52 is initiated by using the ribosome entry site IRES to achieve co-expression of the two fragments mut-STAR and p52.
- add a myc-tag (SEQ ID NO:15: GAGCAGAAACTCATCTCTGAAGAGGATCTG) to the N-terminus of mut-STAR, and use a 6 bp sequence (GGATCT) to connect the mut-STAR and myc-tag fragments.
- the lentiviral vector used in the examples is pHAGE-EF1 ⁇ -IRES-RFP.
- the linear vector is obtained through restriction endonuclease Not I/Nhe I.
- the target gene fragment is obtained through synthesis and PCR methods, and the complete vector is obtained through homologous recombination. .
- the lentiviral packaging, culture and transduction of T cells used to transduce T cells refer to the international patent publication WO 2021/135178A1.
- the target cells A431 are adherent cells, and the primary T cells are suspension cells. When co-incubating, take the corresponding number of cells, mix them with the target cell culture medium, and then centrifuge them for culture. The specific steps are: use the packaged and purified mut-STAR and mut-STAR-p52 viruses to infect primary T cells, and use flow cytometry to sort out the infected cells for in vitro detection experiments before co-culture. Target cells and primary T cells were co-incubated at 1:2 or 2:1, and the killing of target cells by T cells was detected after 1 day of co-incubation.
- lactate dehydrogenase LDH kit to detect cell killing ability. After the target cells die, they will release LDH in the body into the cell suspension. Take the co-incubated cell suspension and centrifuge it at 2500rpm/min to remove the precipitate. Take 50uL of the supernatant from each well and add 50uL of LDH detection reagent. After reacting for 15 minutes, add 50uL of stop reagent and use a microplate reader at a wavelength of 490. detection.
- Target antigen stimulates T cells
- the target antigen EGFR is a cell surface protein that can be directly used to activate T cells to detect the function of T cells. Usually, 1 ⁇ 10 5 /well of positive T cells is added, centrifuged, and the cell suspension or culture supernatant is collected after 24 hours of activation to detect T cell function, or the value-added ability and memory of T cells are detected after 2.5 days, 5 days, or 7.5 days of activation. T cell swarming and killing of target cells.
- the results in Figure 4 and Table 2 show that overexpression of p52 can promote an increase in the proportion of CD8+ T cells.
- the results in Figure 5 show that overexpression of p52 in STAR-T cells can improve the better proliferation ability of CD8+T cells.
- the results in Figure 6 and Table 3 show that after 5 days of antigen protein stimulation, overexpression of p52 can make mut-STAR T cells differentiate more into effector T cells.
- the results in Figure 7 show that after long-term antigen stimulation (7.5 days), overexpression of p52 can cause mut-STAR cells to proliferate in greater numbers.
- the results in Figure 8 and Table 4 show that after long-term antigen stimulation of T cells (7.5 days), the killing effect of T cells on target cells was detected. It was found that STAR-p52 has significantly improved killing ability than STAR.
- T cells During the activation process of T cells, a large number of cytokines are released to help T cells kill target cells or promote the expansion of T cells themselves. Common ones include IFN- ⁇ and IL-2. After T cells are stimulated with target cells or antigens, T cells are collected, centrifuged, and the supernatant is taken. The amounts of TNF- ⁇ , IFN- ⁇ , and IL-2 were determined by ELISA using kits according to the manufacturer's instructions. TNF- ⁇ , IFN- ⁇ , IL-2 ELISA kits use Human IL-2 Uncoated ELISA, Human TNF- ⁇ Uncoated ELISA, and Human IFN- ⁇ Uncoated ELISA (product numbers are 88-7025, 88-7346, 88-7316 respectively ).
- the ELISA results in Figure 9 show that overexpression of p52 can increase the secretion of IFN- ⁇ and IL2 by mut-STAR T cells and enhance the effector function of T cells.
