Description

SFTSV inhibitors and uses thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of molecular immunology, and relates to an SFTSV inhibitor and an application thereof.
Background
Fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) belongs to a novel tick borne hemorrhagic fever, is a new and natural epidemic-derived and acute infectious disease caused by infection of newly discovered and named bunyavirus phlebovirus, phlebovirus of phlebovirus family, namely fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus (SFTSV), is known as tick disease, and since 2009 is discovered in the eastern area of China, with the enhancement of monitoring intensity, confirmed cases are successively reported in many places, and Japanese, Korea, United states and Arabic Union Ministry and the like also have cases reported, and SFTS has already made a serious threat to the global human health.
Members of the order bunyaviridae are mostly transmitted by vector organisms such as ticks, mites, mosquitoes, mice, etc., causing regional or global epidemics. In China, Hantaan viruses (Hantaviridae) and Xinjiang hemorrhagic fever viruses (Nairoviridae) mainly cause local epidemics. In 2011, the chinese disease prevention and control center isolated SFTSV from blood of SFTS acute stage patients, identified the virus as a phlebovirus through gene sequence alignment and homology analysis, and the viral genome has been analyzed: consists of three single-stranded negative-strand RNA fragments, small (S), medium (M) and large (L), and is similar to other viruses of the order bunyaviridae, with sequences complementary to the 3 'and 5' ends of the viral genome. The S segment belongs to a double-sense RNA and mainly encodes a nucleoprotein NP and a non-structural protein NSS, and the L segment encodes an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase consisting of 2084 amino acids; the M segment encodes a membrane protein precursor with 1073 amino acids, and Gn and Gc glycoproteins formed by protease modification in host cells after translation mediate the whole process of virus infection of the host, are key antigen molecules for stimulating the host to generate neutralizing antibodies, and Gn and Gc become important targets for the research of SFTS vaccines at present.
SFTS patients usually have a history of tick bites, the typical manifestations after infection are acute, high fever is accompanied with systemic hypodynamia, headache and muscle and joint ache, and the typical clinical characteristics are that leucocyte and platelet are obviously reduced, transaminase is increased, serum lactate dehydrogenase is obviously increased, prothrombin time is prolonged, and electrolytes such as sodium, potassium, chlorine and the like are low. Most cases live in hilly areas, the first case is the middle-aged and elderly people with field work experience, the average fatality rate is about 10%, and the death cause is mainly multi-organ functional failure. The case is sporadic and can also cause household aggregation outbreak, SFTS has serious human transmission phenomenon, and SFTSV can be infected by blood or secretion of a patient.
Because the disease is a new natural epidemic infectious disease, the epidemic situation cannot disappear in a short time; at present, no effective vaccine is used for prevention, people infect SFTSV, no specific medicine is used clinically, and symptomatic treatment is mainly used; the initial symptoms of the disease are the same as those of the common influenza, patients are mostly concentrated in rural areas, the traffic is inconvenient, the health and medical level is weak, the disease condition is mostly developed into viremia and multi-organ failure after definite diagnosis, and only symptomatic treatment means can be adopted clinically at the moment. As a supplement to chemotherapy, antibody-mediated measures for preventing and treating viral infection have shown good effects, and the application prospect thereof is accepted by experts. The antibody is one of the most important antiviral immune mediators in human body, and the antibody molecule can kill and eliminate virus particles and infected cells by blocking the combination of the virus particles and receptors thereof, activating killer cells such as macrophages and NK cells, activating complement and other various mechanisms. The antibody preparation can neutralize a large amount of viruses in a patient body, reduce load, transform the disease condition, carry out emergency passive immunity on patients in close contact, such as accompanying and nursing staff, and prevent the second generation and third generation of infected persons.
Research shows that clinical use of virus-specific recovered human plasma can effectively neutralize virus, prevent the virus from diffusing in various organs in vivo, avoid lethal multiple organ failure, and play an important role in the outcome of the disease course of patients. However, not only is the source of polyclonal plasma limited, but clinical use is also limited by conditions such as poor quality control, mismatch of blood types of donor and recipient, potential infectious agents, etc. The murine monoclonal antibody is simple to prepare, has a clear treatment mechanism, but the heterogeneity of the murine monoclonal antibody hinders the application of the murine monoclonal antibody in a human body. However, human monoclonal antibodies are effective in overcoming the above problems.
At present, no anti-SFTSV antibody is on the market at home and abroad, so that detection and diagnosis and treatment articles based on the antibody with independent intellectual property rights are established and developed, and the method has important practical significance for the intervention of various related diseases.
Disclosure of Invention
The method comprises the steps of constructing a high-capacity human immune phage antibody library, screening a human single-chain antibody fragment (scFv) by taking the purified SFTSV-Gn protein as a target, and obtaining three human scFv antibody molecules which are named as 4-6, 2F6 and 1B 2. The three single-chain antibody fragments are subjected to full molecular gene construction by a molecular biology method, and are eukaryon expressed 4-6IgG1, 2F6IgG1 and 1B2IgG 1. Further research shows that the three monoclonal antibodies have stronger binding activity and neutralization effect on SFTS viruses.
Based on the above research, the present invention has the following protection objects:
the invention provides an SFTSV inhibitor which is a specific antibody aiming at an SFTSV protein. In a specific embodiment of the invention, the SFTSV inhibitor is a monoclonal antibody specific for the SFTSV protein.
The SFTSV inhibitors of the invention include:
(1) heavy chain CDR1 shown in SEQ ID NO. 1, heavy chain CDR2 shown in SEQ ID NO. 2, and heavy chain CDR3 shown in SEQ ID NO. 3; and/or
(2) Light chain CDR1 shown in SEQ ID NO. 4, light chain CDR2 shown in SEQ ID NO. 5, and light chain CDR3 shown in SEQ ID NO. 6.

(1) a heavy chain variable region having an amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO. 7; and/or
(2) And a light chain variable region having an amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO 8.
For convenience in explaining the functional variants of the inhibitors below, the SFTSV inhibitors described above are referred to as parent inhibitors.
The SFTSV inhibitors of the invention may be whole immunoglobulin molecules, which may be of any class (e.g., IgG, IgE, IgM, IgD, IgA, and IgY) class (e.g., IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgA1, and IgA2) or subclass. In a specific embodiment of the invention, the intact immunoglobulin molecule of the SFTSV inhibitor is of the IgG1 type.
The SFTSV inhibitors of the invention may also be antigen binding fragments, including but not limited to Fab fragments, Fab '-SH fragments, F (ab')2A fragment, an Fd fragment, an Fv fragment, a diabody, a single chain Fv (scfv), a single chain polypeptide comprising only one light chain variable region, a single chain polypeptide comprising three CDRs of a light chain variable region, a single chain polypeptide comprising only one heavy chain variable region, a single chain polypeptide comprising three CDRs of a heavy chain variable region, and a VHH. In particular embodiments of the invention, the SFTSV inhibitor may be an scFv.
The SFTSV inhibitors of the invention also include functional variants of the SFTSV inhibitors described previously, including, but not limited to, derivatives that have substantially similar primary structural sequences, but contain chemical and/or biochemical modifications in vitro or in vivo, e.g., not found in the parent inhibitor. Such modifications include phthalylation, covalent attachment of nucleotides or nucleotide derivatives, covalent attachment of lipids or lipid derivatives, cross-linking, disulfide bond formation, glycosylation, hydroxylation, methylation, oxidation, pegylation, proteolytic processing, phosphorylation, and the like. In other words, modifications in the amino acid and/or nucleotide sequence of the parent inhibitor do not significantly affect or alter the binding properties of the inhibitor encoded by or containing the nucleotide sequence, i.e., the inhibitor is still able to recognize and bind its target.
The functional variants may have conservative sequence modifications, including amino acid substitutions, additions, and deletions. These modifications can be introduced by standard techniques known in the art, such as site-directed mutagenesis and random PCR-mediated mutagenesis, and can comprise natural as well as unnatural amino acids.
Conservative amino acid substitutions include substitutions in which an amino acid residue is replaced with another amino acid residue having similar structural or chemical properties. Families of amino acid residues with similar side chains have been defined in the art. These families include amino acids with basic side chains (e.g., lysine, arginine, histidine), acidic side chain amino acids (e.g., aspartic acid, glutamic acid), uncharged polar side chain amino acids (e.g., aspartic acid, glutamine, serine, threonine, tyrosine, cysteine, tryptophan), nonpolar side chain amino acids (e.g., glycine, alanine, valine, leucine, isoleucine, proline, phenylalanine, methionine), branched side chain amino acids (e.g., threonine, valine, isoleucine), and aromatic side chain amino acids (e.g., tyrosine, phenylalanine, tryptophan). Those skilled in the art will appreciate that other amino acid residue family classifications besides the above-described families may also be used. In addition, a variant may have a non-conservative amino acid substitution, e.g., an amino acid is replaced with another amino acid residue having a different structure or chemical property. Similar minor variations may also include amino acid deletions or insertions, or both. Guidance in determining which amino acid residues may be substituted, inserted or deleted without abolishing immunological activity can be found using computer programs well known in the art.
Furthermore, functional variants may comprise a truncation of the amino acid sequence at the amino terminus or the carboxy terminus or both. The functional variants of the invention may have the same or different, higher or lower binding affinity than the parent inhibitor, but still bind to the SFTSV protein. Hereinafter, when the term "inhibitor" is used, it also covers functional variants of the inhibitor.
The functional variants also comprise modifications to hypervariable regions comprising amino acid residues from the CDRs and amino acid residues from the hypervariable loops. Functional variants within the scope of the present invention have at least about 50% to about 99%, preferably at least about 60% to about 99%, more preferably at least about 70% to about 99%, even more preferably at least about 80% to about 99%, most preferably at least about 90% to about 99%, particularly at least about 95% to about 99%, and particularly at least about 97% to about 99% amino acid sequence homology with the parent inhibitor described herein.
Computer algorithms known to those skilled in the art, such as Gap or Bestfit, can be used to optimally align amino acid sequences for comparison and to identify similar or identical amino acid residues. Functional variants can be obtained by altering the parent inhibitor or a portion thereof using common molecular biology methods known in the art, including but not limited to error-prone PCR, oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis, site-directed mutagenesis, and heavy and/or light chain shuffling methods.
The present invention provides nucleic acid molecules encoding the SFTSV inhibitors described above. The nucleic acid molecule sequence encoding the heavy chain CDR1 is shown in SEQ ID NO. 9, the nucleic acid molecule sequence encoding the heavy chain CDR2 is shown in SEQ ID NO. 10, the nucleic acid molecule sequence encoding the heavy chain CDR3 is shown in SEQ ID NO. 11, and the nucleic acid molecule sequence encoding the heavy chain variable region is shown in SEQ ID NO. 12; the nucleic acid molecule sequence encoding light chain CDR1 is set forth in SEQ ID NO. 13, the nucleic acid molecule sequence encoding light chain CDR2 is set forth in SEQ ID NO. 14, the nucleic acid molecule sequence encoding light chain CDR3 is set forth in SEQ ID NO. 15, and the nucleic acid molecule sequence encoding light chain variable region is set forth in SEQ ID NO. 16.
The nucleic acid molecule may also comprise a nucleotide sequence that hybridizes under stringent conditions to a nucleic acid molecule encoding an antibody comprising a heavy or light chain sequence.
Those skilled in the art will appreciate that functional variants of these nucleic acid molecules are also part of the present invention. A functional variant is a nucleic acid sequence that can be directly translated using standard genetic code to provide the same amino acid sequence as the sequence translated from the parent nucleic acid molecule.
Once the sequence of interest has been obtained, it can be obtained in large quantities by recombinant methods. This is usually done by cloning it into a vector, transferring it into a cell, and isolating the relevant sequence from the propagated host cell by conventional methods.
In addition, the sequence can be synthesized by artificial synthesis, especially when the fragment length is short. Generally, fragments with long sequences are obtained by first synthesizing a plurality of small fragments and then ligating them.
At present, nucleic acid sequences encoding the inhibitors of the invention (or fragments or derivatives thereof) have been obtained entirely by chemical synthesis. The nucleic acid sequence can then be introduced into various existing DNA molecules (or vectors, for example) and cells known in the art. Furthermore, mutations can also be introduced into the sequences of the inhibitors of the invention by chemical synthesis.
The present invention also provides a recombinant vector comprising a nucleic acid molecule as described above, in addition to the nucleic acid molecule as described above, a regulatory sequence operably linked to the sequence of said nucleic acid molecule.
These recombinant vectors may be used to transform an appropriate host cell so that it can express the nucleic acid molecule or protein.
The vector includes a cloning vector or an expression vector. Cloning vectors are used to amplify nucleic acid molecules and expression vectors are used to express proteins encoded by nucleic acid molecules.
The invention also provides a recombinant cell comprising a nucleic acid molecule as described above or a vector as described above.
The recombinant cell can be a prokaryotic cell, such as a bacterial cell; or lower eukaryotic cells, such as yeast cells; or higher eukaryotic cells, such as mammalian cells. Representative examples are Escherichia coli, Streptomyces; bacterial cells of salmonella typhimurium: fungal cells such as yeast; a plant cell; insect cells of Drosophila S2 or Sf 9; CHO, COS,293 cells, or Bowes melanoma cells.
The present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising a therapeutically effective amount of the SFTSV inhibitor described above.
Further, the pharmaceutical composition also comprises a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
The term "pharmaceutically acceptable" as used herein means that the molecular entities and compositions do not produce adverse, allergic, or other untoward reactions when properly administered to an animal or human. As used herein, a "pharmaceutically acceptable carrier" should be compatible with, i.e., capable of being blended with, the inhibitors of the present invention without substantially reducing the effectiveness of the composition as is often the case.
Specific examples of some substances that may serve as pharmaceutically acceptable carriers or components thereof are sugars, such as lactose, glucose and sucrose; starches, such as corn starch and potato starch; cellulose and its derivatives, such as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, ethyl cellulose and methyl cellulose; powdered gum tragacanth; malt; gelatin; talc; solid lubricants, such as stearic acid and magnesium stearate; calcium sulfate; vegetable oils such as peanut oil, cottonseed oil, sesame oil, olive oil, corn oil and cocoa butter; polyhydric alcohols such as propylene glycol, glycerin, sorbitol, mannitol, and polyethylene glycol; alginic acid; emulsifiers, such as Tween; wetting agents, such as sodium lauryl sulfate; a colorant; a flavoring agent; tabletting agents, stabilizers; an antioxidant; a preservative; pyrogen-free water; isotonic saline solution; and phosphate buffer, and the like.
The compositions of the present invention may be formulated into various dosage forms as desired, and may be administered by a physician in a dosage amount beneficial to the patient, depending on such factors as the type, age, weight and general condition of the patient, the mode of administration, and the like. Administration may be by injection or other therapeutic means, for example.
Drugs that may be used in combination with the pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention include other anti-SFTSV drugs.
The invention also provides an immunoconjugate comprising at least one inhibitor as described herein and further comprising at least one label-detectable moiety/substance. Detectable moieties/substances include, but are not limited to, enzymes, prosthetic groups, fluorescent materials, luminescent materials, bioluminescent materials, radioactive materials, positron emitting metals, and nonradioactive paramagnetic metal ions.
The labeling used to label the inhibitor for detection and/or analysis and/or diagnostic purposes depends on the particular detection/analysis/diagnostic technique and/or method used, e.g., immunohistochemical staining of (tissue) samples, flow cytometry, laser scanning cytometry detection, fluorescent immunoassays, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA), Radioimmunoassays (RIA), bioassays (e.g., phagocytosis assays), western blot applications, and the like. Suitable labels are well known to those skilled in the art for detection/analysis/diagnostic techniques and/or methods known in the art.
In addition to the chemical generation of the immunoconjugate by direct or indirect (e.g. via a linker), the immunoconjugate may be generated as a fusion protein comprising the inhibitor of the invention and a suitable label. Fusion proteins can be produced by methods known in the art, e.g., recombinantly by constructing a nucleic acid molecule comprising an in-frame nucleotide sequence encoding an inhibitor and a nucleotide sequence encoding a suitable marker, and then expressing the nucleic acid molecule.
The invention also provides a test product for determining SFTSV in a sample, the product comprising an SFTSV inhibitor as described above.
Further, the product includes, but is not limited to, a detection reagent, a kit, a chip or a strip. All assay products capable of detecting SFTSV which include the inhibitors described above are included within the scope of the present invention.
The SFTSV inhibitors of the invention, which may also be referred to as anti-SFTSV antibodies, may be prepared by any of a variety of techniques. Typically, the antibody may be produced by cell culture techniques, including the production of monoclonal antibodies by conventional techniques, or by transfection of antibody genes, heavy and/or light chains into a suitable bacterial or mammalian cell host to allow for the production of the antibody, which may be recombinant. The term "transfection" of various forms is intended to include usually used to introduce exogenous DNA into prokaryotic or eukaryotic host cells in various techniques, such as electroporation, calcium phosphate precipitation, DEAE-dextran transfection. Although the antibodies of the invention may be expressed in prokaryotic or eukaryotic host cells, it is preferred to express the antibodies in eukaryotic cells, and most preferably in mammalian host cells, since such eukaryotic cells (particularly mammalian cells) are more likely than prokaryotic cells to assemble and secrete a correctly folded and immunologically active antibody.
Exemplary mammalian host cells for expression of recombinant antibodies, the invention includes chinese hamster ovary (CHO cells), NS0 myeloma cells, COS cells, HEK 293T cells and SP2 cells used with a DHFR selectable marker. When a recombinant expression vector encoding the antibody gene is introduced into a mammalian host cell, the antibody is secreted into the medium in which the host cell is cultured, by culturing the host cell for a period of time sufficient to allow expression of the antibody in the host cell, or more preferably, to secrete the antibody into the medium in which the host cell is cultured. The antibody can be recovered from the culture medium using standard protein purification methods.
Host cells may also be used to produce functional antibody fragments, such as Fab fragments or scFv molecules. It should be understood that variations of the above procedure are within the scope of the invention. For example, it may be desirable to transfect a host cell with DNA encoding a functional fragment of the light and/or heavy chain of an antibody of the invention. Recombinant DNA techniques can also be used to remove some or all of the DNA encoding one or both of the light and heavy chains, which is not necessary for binding to the antigen of interest. Molecules expressed from such truncated DNA molecules are also included in the antibodies of the invention. In addition, bifunctional antibodies can be produced in which one heavy and one light chain is an antibody of the invention (i.e., binds to the SFTSV protein), and the other heavy and light chains are specific for an antigen other than the SFTSV protein.
The method of making monoclonal antibodies involves the preparation of immortalized cells, a cell line capable of producing antibodies with the desired specificity. Such cell lines can be generated from spleen cells obtained from immunized animals. The inhibitors or fragments and/or variants thereof as described above may be produced in an immunized animal.
Monoclonal antibodies can be isolated from the supernatant of growing hybridomas. In addition, various techniques can be employed to increase yield, such as injection of the hybridoma cell line into the peritoneal cavity of a suitable vertebrate host (e.g., a mouse). The monoclonal antibodies can then be harvested from the ascites fluid or blood. Contaminants can be removed from the antibody by conventional techniques such as chromatography, gel filtration, precipitation and extraction. Affinity chromatography is an example of a method that can be used to purify antibodies.
