抗B7-H3抗体及其用途 技术领域
本发明涉及特异性结合B7-H3的新型抗体及其抗原结合片段和含有所述抗体或其抗原结合片段的组合物。此外,本发明涉及编码所述抗体或其抗原结合片段的核酸、包含所述核酸的宿主细胞,以及相关用途。此外,本发明涉及这些抗体或其抗原结合片段的治疗和诊断用途。
背景技术
B7-H3(又称为CD276)是一种I型跨膜糖蛋白,和PD-L1结构非常类似,同属于B7/CD28超家族。B7-H3在转录水平上(RNA)广泛表达于淋巴组织和非淋巴器官,但是B7-H3的蛋白表达却非常的局限,主要表达在激活的树突状细胞、单核细胞、T淋巴细胞、B淋巴细胞、Nk淋巴细胞上,而在其他正常组织中表达量则非常低。最近发现B7-H3在多种实体瘤上高表达,例如在肺癌,胃癌,胰腺癌,前列腺癌,肾癌,卵巢癌,子宫内膜癌,结直肠癌,肝癌和乳腺癌中高表达,其过度表达与生存,预后或肿瘤分级密切相关。除了在肿瘤上高表达之外,B7-H3可能有类似PD-L1介导的T细胞抑制信号的功能。有人提出B7-H3具有共刺激和共抑制功能,这取决于肿瘤特异性,微环境因素和信号强度。除了其作为免疫调节剂的作用,B7-H3与增强癌症的转移和血管生成有关。
由于B7-H3表达主要限于肿瘤,因此,B7-H3是一个非常重要的肿瘤相关抗原,可以作为潜在广谱免疫疗法的靶点。

具体实施方式
I.定义
在下文详细描述本发明前,应理解本发明不限于本文中描述的特定方法学、方案和试剂,因为这些可以变化。还应理解本文中使用的术语仅为了描述具体实施方案,而并不意图限制本发明的范围,其仅会由所附权利要求书限制。除非另外定义,本文中使用的所有技术和科学术语与本发明所属领域中普通技术人员通常的理解具有相同的含义。
为了解释本说明书,将使用以下定义,并且只要适当,以单数形式使用的术语也可以包括复数,并且反之亦然。要理解,本文所用的术语仅是为了描述具体的实施方案,并且不意欲是限制性的。
术语“约”在与数字数值联合使用时意为涵盖具有比指定数字数值小5%的下限和比指定数字数值大5%的上限的范围内的数字数值。
术语“和/或”意指当用于连接两个或多个可选项时,应理解为意指可选项中的任一项或可选项中的任意两项或更多项。
术语“包含”或“包括”意指包括所述的要素、整数或步骤,但是不排除任意其它要素、整数或步骤。在本文中,当使用术语“包含”或“包括”时,除非另有指明,否则也涵盖由所述及的要素、整数或步骤组合的情形。例如,当提及“包含”某个具体序列的抗体可变区时,也旨在涵盖由该具体序列组成的抗体可变区。
术语“抗体”在本文中以最广意义使用并且涵盖多种抗体结构物,包括但不限于单克隆抗体、多克隆抗体、重组抗体、人源化抗体、嵌合抗体、多特异性抗体(例如,双特异性抗体)、单链抗体、完整抗体或其显示出所需的抗原结合活性的抗体片段。完整抗体通常将包含至少两条全长重链和两条全长轻链,但在某些情况下可包括较少的链,例如骆驼中天然存在的抗体可仅包含重链。
术语“抗原结合片段”(在本文中可与“抗体片段”和“抗原结合部分”互换使用),指与完整抗体不同的分子,其包含完整抗体的一部分且结合完整抗体所结合的抗原。抗原结合片段的例子包括但不限于Fv,Fab,Fab’,Fab’-SH,F(ab’) 2;双抗体(diabodies,dAb);线性抗体;单链抗体(例如scFv);单结构域抗体(单域抗体);双价或双特异性抗体的抗原结合片段;骆驼科抗体;和表现出所需的结合抗原(例如B7-H3)能力的其它片段。
“亲和力”或“结合亲和力”指反映结合对子的成员之间相互作用的固有结合亲和力。分子X对其配偶物Y的亲和力可以通常由平衡解离常数(KD)代表,平衡解离常数是解离速率常数和结合速率常数(分别是kdis和kon)的比值。亲和力可以由本领域已知的常见方法测量。用于测量亲和力的一个具体方法是本文中的ForteBio动力学结合测定法。
术语“Fc区”在本文中用于定义免疫球蛋白重链的C端区域,所述区域包含至少一部分的恒定区。该术语包括天然序列Fc区和变体Fc区。在某些实施方案中,人IgG重链Fc区通常从Cys226或Pro230延伸至重链的羰基端。然而,Fc区的C端赖氨酸(Lys447)可以存在或者可以不存在。除非另外说明,Fc区或恒定区中的氨基酸残基的编号是根据EU编号系统,其也被称为EU索引,如在Kabat等,Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest,5 th Ed.Public Health Service,National Institutes of Health,Bethesda,MD,1991中所述。
术语“可变区”或“可变结构域”是指参与抗体与抗原结合的抗体重或轻链的结构域。天然抗体的重链和轻链的可变结构域通常具有相似的结构,其中每个结构域包含四个保守的框架区(FR)和三个互补决定区(参见,例如,Kindt等Kuby Immunology,6 th ed.,W.H.Freeman and Co.91页(2007))。单个VH或VL结构域可以足以给予抗原结合特异性。此外,可以使用来自与特定抗原结合的抗体的VH或VL结构域分别筛选互补VL或VH结构域的文库来分离结合所述抗原的抗体,参见,例如,Portolano等,J.Immunol.150:880-887(1993);Clarkson等,Nature 352:624-628(1991)。
“互补决定区”或“CDR区”或“CDR”或“高变区”(在本文中与超变区“HVR”可以互换使用),是抗体可变结构域中在序列上高度可变并且形成在结构上确定的环(“超变环”)和/或含有抗原接触残基(“抗原接触点”)的区域。CDR主要负责与抗原表位结合。重链和轻链的CDR从N-端开始顺序编号,通常称作CDR1、CDR2和CDR3。位于抗体重链可变结构域内的CDR也称作HCDR1、HCDR2和HCDR3,而位于抗体轻链可变结构域内的CDR则称作LCDR1、LCDR2和LCDR3。在一个给定的轻链可变区或重链可变区氨基酸序列中,可以采用本领域公知的多种方案确定其CDR序列,例如,Kabat互补决定区(CDR)是基于序列变异性确定的并且是最常用的(Kabat等人,Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest,第5版,Public Health Service,National Institutes of Health,Bethesda,Md.(1991))。而Chothia指的是结构环的位置(Chothia和Lesk,J.Mol.Biol.196:901-917(1987))。AbM CDR是Kabat CDR和Chothia结构环之间的折中,并且由Oxford Molecular的AbM抗体建模软件使用。“接触性”(Contact)CDR基于对可获得的复杂晶体结构的分析。根据不同的CDR确定方案,这些CDR中的每一个HVR/CDR的残基如下所述。
Figure PCTCN2021140449-appb-000001
CDR也可以是根据Kabat编号系统位于如下Kabat残基位置的CDR序列:
VL中的位置24-36或24-34(LCDR1),位置46-56或50-56(LCDR2),和位置89-97或89-96位置(LCDR3);和VH中的位置26-35或27-35B(HCDR1),位置50-65或49-65(HCDR2),和位置93-102、94-102或95-102(HCDR3)。
在一个实施方案中,本发明抗体的HCDR1通过AbM规则确定边界,HCDR2、HCDR3及LCDR通过Kabat规则确定边界,例如下文表A所示。
CDR也可以基于与参考CDR序列(例如本发明示例性CDR之任一)具有相同的Kabat编号位置而确定。
除非另有说明,否则在本发明中,当提及抗体可变区中的残基位置(包括重链可变区残基和轻链可变区残基)时,是指根据Kabat编号系统(Kabat等人,Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest,第5版,Public Health Service,National Institutes of Health,Bethesda,Md.(1991))的编号位置。
除非另有说明,否则在本发明中,术语“CDR”或“CDR序列”涵盖以上述任一种方式确定的CDR序列。
然而,应该注意,基于不同的指派系统获得的同一抗体的可变区的CDR的边界可能有所差异。即不同指派系统下定义的同一抗体可变区的CDR序列有所不同。因此,在涉及用本发明定义的具体CDR序列限定抗体时,所述抗体的范围还涵盖了这样的抗体,其可变区序列包含所述的具体CDR序列,但是由于应用了不同的方案(例如不同的指派系统规则或组合)而导致其所声称的CDR边界与本发明所定义的具体CDR边界不同。
具有不同特异性(即,针对不同抗原的不同结合位点)的抗体具有不同的CDR。然而,尽管CDR在抗体与抗体之间是不同的,但是CDR内只有有限数量的氨基酸位置直接参与抗原结合。使用Kabat,Chothia,AbM、Contact和North方法中的至少两种,可以确定最小重叠区域,从而提供用于抗原结合的“最小结合单位”。最小结合单位可以是CDR的一个子部分。正如本领域技术人员明了,通过抗体的结构和蛋白折叠,可以确定CDR序列其余部分的残基。因此,本发明也考虑本文所给出的任何CDR的变体。例如,在一个CDR的变体中,最小结合单位的氨基酸残基可以保持不变,而根据Kabat或Chothia定义的其余CDR残基可以被保守氨基酸残基替代。
术语“抗体依赖性细胞介导的细胞毒性”或“ADCC”指其中结合到某些细胞毒性细胞(例如NK细胞,嗜中性粒细胞和巨噬细胞)上存在的Fc受体(FcR)上的分泌型免疫球蛋白使得这些细胞毒性效应细胞能够特异性结合携带抗原的靶细胞,随后用细胞毒素杀死靶细胞的细胞毒性形式。介导ADCC的主要细胞NK细胞只表达FcγRIII,而单核细胞表达FcγRI,FcγRII和FcγRIII。为了评估目的分子的ADCC活性,可进行体外ADCC测定法,或者可在体内评估目的分子的ADCC活性,例如在动物模型中。本文实施例中提供了用于评估ADCC活性的一种例示性测定法。
术语“功能性Fc区”指这样的Fc区,其拥有天然序列Fc区的“效应器功能”。例示性的“效应器功能”包括C1q结合;CDC;Fc受体结合;ADCC;吞噬作用;细胞表面受体(例如B细胞受体;BCR)下调等。此类效应器功能一般要求Fc区与结合结构域(例如抗体可变域)联 合,而且可以使用多种测定法来评估,例如本文所公开的那些。
本文所述的术语“治疗剂”涵盖在预防或治疗肿瘤(例如癌症)中有效的任何物质,包括化疗剂、细胞毒性剂、疫苗、其它抗体、抗感染活性剂、小分子药物或免疫调节剂。
本文使用的术语“免疫调节剂”指抑制或调节免疫应答的天然或合成活性剂或者药物。免疫应答可以是体液应答或细胞应答。
术语“有效量”指本发明的抗体或其片段或缀合物或组合物这样的量或剂量,其以单一或多次剂量施用患者后,在需要治疗或预防的患者中产生预期效果。针对治疗或预防的目的,可以将“有效量”区分为“治疗有效量”和“预防有效量”。有效量可以由作为本领域技术人员的主治医师通过考虑以下多种因素而容易地确定:诸如哺乳动物的物种、大小、年龄和一般健康、涉及的具体疾病、疾病的程度或严重性、个体患者的应答、施用的具体抗体、施用模式、施用制剂的生物利用率特征、选择的给药方案、和任何伴随疗法的使用。
在一个实施方式中,相比较于对照,有效量的本发明B7-H3抗体优选地抑制可度量参数(例如肿瘤生长率,肿瘤体积等)至少约20%、更优选地至少约40%。
术语“宿主细胞”、“宿主细胞系”和“宿主细胞培养物”可交换地使用且是指其中引入外源核酸的细胞,包括这种细胞的后代。宿主细胞包括“转化体”和“转化的细胞”,其包括最初原代转化的细胞和来源于其的后代,而不考虑传代的数目。后代在核酸内容上可能与亲本细胞不完全相同,而是可以包含突变。本文中包括在最初转化的细胞中筛选或选择的具有相同功能或生物学活性的突变体后代。
术语“嵌合抗体”是指可变区序列源自一物种、恒定区序列源自另一物种的抗体,例如,其中可变区序列源自小鼠抗体、恒定区序列源自人抗体的抗体。
术语“人源化抗体”是指将源自其他哺乳动物物种例如小鼠种系的抗原结合位点接到人免疫球蛋白序列上的抗体。人源化抗体是一种嵌合分子,该嵌合分子通常使用重组技术制备,可以在人构架序列内进行额外的构架区修饰。抗原结合位点可以包含融合到恒定区的完整可变域,或仅包含嫁接到可变域中的合适框架序列上的互补决定区。在一些实施方案中,人源化抗体将包含基本上所有的至少一个、通常两个可变结构域,其中所有或基本上所有的CDR(例如,6个CDR)对应于非人抗体的那些,并且所有或基本上所有的FR对应于人抗体的那些。人源化抗体任选可以包含至少一部分的来源于人抗体的抗体恒定区。抗体(例如非人抗体)的“人源化形式”是指已经进行了人源化的抗体。
术语“免疫缀合物”是与一个或多个其它物质(包括但不限于细胞毒性剂或标记)缀合的抗体。
本文所使用的术语“标记”是指被直接或间接缀合或融合至试剂(诸如多核苷酸探针或抗 体)并且促进其所缀合或融合的试剂的检测的化合物或组合物。标记本身可以是可检测的(例如,放射性同位素标记或荧光标记)或在酶促标记的情况下可以催化可检测的底物化合物或组合物的化学改变。术语旨在涵盖通过将可检测物质偶联(即,物理连接)至探针或抗体来直接标记探针或抗体以及通过与直接标记的另一种试剂反应来间接标记探针或抗体。间接标记的实例包括使用荧光标记的二级抗体进行的一级抗体的检测和具有生物素的DNA探针的末端标记,使得其可以用荧光标记的链霉抗生素蛋白来检测。
术语“个体”或“受试者”包括哺乳动物。哺乳动物包括但不限于,家养动物(例如,牛,羊,猫,狗和马),灵长类动物(例如,人和非人灵长类动物如猴),兔,以及啮齿类动物(例如,小鼠和大鼠)。在一些实施方案中,个体或受试者是人。
术语“分离的”抗体是这样的抗体,其已经与其天然环境的组分分离。在一些实施方案中,将抗体纯化至超过95%或99%纯度,如通过例如电泳(例如,SDS-PAGE,等电聚焦(IEF),毛细管电泳)或层析(例如,离子交换或反相HPLC)确定的。
“分离的编码抗B7-H3抗体或其抗原结合片段的核酸”是指一个或多个核酸分子,其编码抗体重链或轻链(或其抗原结合片段),包括在单一载体或分开的载体中的这样的核酸分子,以及存在于宿主细胞中的一个或多个位置处的这样的核酸分子。
如下进行序列之间序列同一性的计算。
为确定两个氨基酸序列或两个核酸序列的同一性百分数,将所述序列出于最佳比较目的比对(例如,可以为了最佳比对而在第一和第二氨基酸序列或核酸序列之一或二者中引入空位或可以为比较目的而抛弃非同源序列)。在一个优选实施方案中,为比较目的,所比对的参考序列的长度是至少30%、优选地至少40%、更优选地至少50%、60%和甚至更优选地至少70%、80%、90%、100%的参考序列长度。随后比较在对应氨基酸位置或核苷酸位置处的氨基酸残基或核苷酸。当第一序列中的位置由第二序列中对应位置处的相同氨基酸残基或核苷酸占据时,则所述分子在这个位置处是相同的。
可以利用数学算法实现两个序列间的序列比较和同一性百分数的计算。在一个优选实施方案中,使用已经集成至GCG软件包的GAP程序中的Needlema和Wunsch((1970)J.Mol.Biol.48:444-453)算法(在http://www.gcg.com可获得),使用Blossum 62矩阵或PAM250矩阵和空位权重16、14、12、10、8、6或4和长度权重1、2、3、4、5或6,确定两个氨基酸序列之间的同一性百分数。在又一个优选的实施方案中,使用GCG软件包中的GAP程序(在http://www.gcg.com可获得),使用NWSgapdna.CMP矩阵和空位权重40、50、60、70或80和长度权重1、2、3、4、5或6,确定两个核苷酸序列之间的同一性百分数。特别优选的参数集合(和除非另外说明否则应当使用的一个参数集合)是采用空位罚分12、空位延伸罚分4和移码 空位罚分5的Blossum 62评分矩阵。
还可以使用PAM120加权余数表、空位长度罚分12,空位罚分4),利用已经并入ALIGN程序(2.0版)的E.Meyers和W.Miller算法,((1989)CABIOS,4:11-17)确定两个氨基酸序列或核苷酸序列之间的同一性百分数。
额外地或备选地,可以进一步使用本文所述的核酸序列和蛋白质序列作为“查询序列”以针对公共数据库执行检索,以例如鉴定其它家族成员序列或相关序列。
术语“药用辅料”指与活性物质一起施用的稀释剂、佐剂(例如弗氏佐剂(完全和不完全的))、赋形剂、载体或稳定剂等。

术语“载体”当在本文中使用时是指能够增殖与其相连的另一个核酸的核酸分子。该术语包括作为自我复制核酸结构的载体以及结合到已经引入其的宿主细胞的基因组中的载体。一些载体能够指导与其可操作相连的核酸的表达。这样的载体在本文中被称为“表达载体”。
术语“受试者/患者样品”指从患者或受试者得到的组织或细胞样品集合。组织或细胞样品的来源可以是实体组织(例如来自新鲜的、冷冻的和/或保存的器官或组织样品或活检样品或穿刺样品);血液或任何血液组分;体液(诸如脑脊液、羊膜液(羊水)、腹膜液(腹水)、或间隙液);来自受试者的妊娠或发育任何时间的细胞。

在本发明的一个实施方案中,本文所述的氨基酸改变包括氨基酸的置换、插入或缺失。优选的,本文所述的氨基酸改变为氨基酸置换,优选地保守置换。
在优选的实施方案中,本发明所述的氨基酸改变发生在CDR外的区域(例如在FR中)。更优选地,本发明所述的氨基酸改变发生在重链可变区外和/或轻链可变区外的区域。
在一些实施方案中,置换为保守性置换。保守置换是指一个氨基酸经相同类别内的另一氨基酸置换,例如一个酸性氨基酸经另一酸性氨基酸置换,一个碱性氨基酸经另一碱性氨基酸置换,或一个中性氨基酸经另一中性氨基酸置换。示例性的置换如下表所示:
原始残基 示例性置换 优选的保守氨基酸置换

在某些实施方案中,置换发生在抗体的CDR区。通常,获得的变体相对于亲本抗体在某些生物学特性方面(例如,增加的亲和力)具有修饰(例如,改善)和/或将具有亲本抗体的基本上保留的某些生物学特性。示例性置换变体是亲和力成熟抗体。
在某些实施方案中,本文中所提供的抗体经改变以增加或降低抗体经糖基化的程度。对抗体的糖基化位点的添加或缺失可通过改变氨基酸序列以便产生或移除一或多个糖基化位点而方便地实现。当抗体包含Fc区时,可以改变附着于其的糖类。在一些应用中,除去不想要的糖基化位点的修饰是有用的,例如除去岩藻糖模块以提高抗体依赖性细胞介导的细胞毒性细胞毒性(ADCC)功能(参见Shield等(2002)JBC277:26733)。在其它应用中,可以进行半乳糖苷化修饰以修饰补体依赖性细胞毒性(CDC)。
在某些实施方案中,可在本文中所提供抗体的Fc区中引入一个或多个氨基酸修饰,以此产生Fc区变体。Fc区变体可包括在一或多个氨基酸位置处包含氨基酸修饰(例如置换)的人Fc区序列(例如人IgGl、IgG2、IgG3或IgG4Fc区)。关于Fc变体的实例参见美国专利号7,332,581,美国专利号6,737,056,美国专利号6,737,056;WO 2004/056312和Shields等人,J.Biol.Chem.9(2):6591-6604(2001),美国专利号6,194,551、WO 99/51642和Idusogie等人J.Immunol.164:4178-4184(2000),美国专利号7,371,826,Duncan&Winter,Nature 322:738-40(1988);美国专利号5,648,260;美国专利号5,624,821;和WO 94/29351。
在某些实施方案中,可能需要产生经半胱氨酸工程改造的抗体,例如“硫代MAb”,其中抗体的一或多个残基经半胱氨酸残基置换。可以如,例如美国专利号7,521,541中所述地生成半胱氨酸改造的抗体。
在某些实施方案中,本文中所提供的抗体可进一步经修饰为含有本领域中已知且轻易获得的其它非蛋白质部分。适合抗体衍生作用的部分包括,但不限于,水溶性聚合物。水溶性聚合物的非限制性实例包括,但不限于,聚乙二醇(PEG)、乙二醇/丙二醇共聚物、羧甲基纤维素、葡聚糖、聚乙烯醇、聚乙烯吡咯烷酮、聚-1,3-二烷、聚-1,3,6-三烷、乙烯/马来酸酐共聚物、聚 氨基酸(均聚物或无规共聚物)、及葡聚糖或聚(n-乙烯基吡咯烷酮)聚乙二醇、丙二醇均聚物、聚环氧丙烷/氧化乙烯共聚物、聚氧乙基化多元醇(例如甘油)、聚乙烯醇、及其混合物。

如本领域技术人员明了的,因为密码子简并性,每一个抗体或多肽氨基酸序列可以由多种核酸序列编码。
可以采用本领域熟知的方法,通过从头固相DNA合成或通过PCR诱变编码结合B7-H3的抗体或其抗原结合片段的序列,产生这些多核苷酸序列。

实施例6人源化抗体结合过表达人和食蟹猴B7H3的CHO-S细胞
为了验证本发明的抗体是否可以和细胞表面表达的抗原结合,利用流式细胞技术检测了本申请人源化抗体和过表达人B7H3和食蟹猴B7H3的细胞的结合情况。
过表达B7H3的细胞构建
使用ExpiCHO TM Expression System Kit(Invitrogen,目录号:A29133),根据制造商的说明书实施如下操作:将编码人4Ig-B7H3(uniprot:Q5ZPR3,SEQ ID NO:32),人2Ig-B7H3(uniprot:Q5ZPR3-2,SEQ ID NO:33)和食蟹猴B7H3(NCBI:XP_015308534.1,SEQ ID NO:34)的cDNA克隆到pCHO1.0载体(Invitrogen)上,之后转染CHO-S细胞,产生过表达人4Ig-B7H3,人2Ig-B7H3和食蟹猴B7H3的CHO-S细胞:CHOS-hB7H3-4Ig,CHOS-hB7H3-2Ig,CHOS-cyno B7H3。
简言之:
1)用PBS溶液稀释CHOS-hB7H3-4Ig,CHOS-hB7H3-2Ig,CHOS-cyno B7H3细胞至2×10 6个/ml,向U型底96孔板各孔中加入100μl,加入三倍梯度稀释的抗体。
2)将上述混合物在冰上孵育30分钟。400g离心5分钟,去除上清,用PBS溶液洗涤细胞,移除未结合的抗体。每孔加入100μl 1:200稀释的PE缀合的抗人Fc抗体(SouthernBiotech),冰上避光孵育30分钟。400g离心5分钟,去除上清。用PBS洗涤细胞2次,移除未结合的PE缀合的抗人Fc抗体。用100μl PBS重悬细胞,通过FACS检测抗体与细胞的结合。
检测结果如图1所示,对于过表达人4Ig-B7H3的细胞,本申请人源化抗体总体上的亲和力与阳性对照MGA271相当。对于过表达人2Ig-B7H3的细胞,hz19A2抗体的亲和力与MGA271相当,而hz 20G5的亲和力明显高于MGA271。可见,本申请的抗体在细胞水平上体现出了显著提升的抗原结合能力。
实施例7抗体依赖细胞介导的细胞毒作用(ADCC)
本实施例研究了所获得抗体介导ADCC效应进而清除肿瘤细胞的作用。本研究使用 Promega的Jurkat-ADCCNF-AT luciferase效应细胞株(以下简称ADCC效应细胞),通过检测NF-AT信号的激活情况,从而检测抗体的ADCC活性。具体实验过程如下:
1)细胞准备
对细胞CHO-hB7H3-4Ig和ADCC效应细胞进行细胞计数。离心去上清,细胞用PBS洗涤两次,用检测培养基(5%low IgG血清的1640培养基(Gibco)重悬,调整ADCC效应细胞浓度为1×10 7个/ml,调整CHO-hB7H3-4Ig细胞浓度为1×10 6个/ml。将两种细胞按照1:1混合,最终ADCC效应细胞与CHO-hB7H3-4Ig细胞的比为10:1。
2)铺板:将混合后的细胞铺96孔板,每孔100ul,第一孔补加50μl细胞。
3)依次加入本发明的不同浓度梯度的抗体:起始孔终浓度为30nM,之后三倍稀释,共10个梯度。
4)37℃培养箱中孵育7小时。
5)7小时后,取出96孔板,每孔加入解冻的Luciferase测试试剂100ul。室温孵育20分钟。用酶标仪检测。用GraphPad软件拟合浓度依赖的曲线。
检测结果如图2所示,本申请获得的人源化抗体和嵌合抗体均可以有效激活NF-AT信号,该信号是ADCC激活的下游信号通路,由此本申请的抗体具有优良的ADCC杀伤能力。此外,本申请获得的人源化抗体与相应的嵌合抗体的ADCC活性相当。
