Description

CD 38-targeted single-chain antibody, fully human chimeric antigen receptor, preparation method and application
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of cellular immunology, in particular to a single-chain antibody of a targeting CD38, a fully human chimeric antigen receptor, a preparation method and application.
Background
Adoptive Cell Therapy (ACT) is one of the biological treatment technologies, and is a method of expanding autoimmune cells (mainly T cells) in vitro and then returning them to tumor patients for treatment, which is considered as the 4 th treatment mode following surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy and is widely used in clinical treatment. The main major applications of adoptive cell therapy are: the combination of lymphokine activated killer cells (LAK) and IL-2 has certain curative effect on treating late malignant tumor; the Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes (TIL) clinical test has better effect on treating metastatic melanoma; cytokine induced killer Cells (CIK) are currently subjected to many clinical tests in China, and have remarkable effects on tumors such as liver cancer and lung cancer. However, the three treatment methods require activation of T cells, and two activation signals are required for T cell activation, namely, a first signal for activation of TCR-CD3 and MHC-I molecules on the surface of the T cells is combined to determine the killing activity of the T cells on tumor cells; the binding of costimulatory molecules on the surface of T cells to the corresponding ligands is the second signal to activate, determining T cell proliferation. However, the tumor cells and the tumor microenvironment can down regulate MHC and ligand molecules, thereby inhibiting the killing activity of T cells on the tumor cells. Therefore, there are two main ways to perform genetic modification: gene transduction TCRs (T cell receptors) and Chimeric Antigen Receptors (CARs).
Chimeric Antigen Receptors (CAR), which are artificial receptors that mimic TCR function, consist of an antigen recognition domain, a hinge region, and a transmembrane region, connected in sequence, and an intracellular signaling domain, usually the CD3 zeta chain, or linked to one or more costimulatory molecules, such as 4-1bb, cd28. When an antigen (receptor) on the surface of a tumor cell is bound to an antibody (ligand) of a chimeric antigen receptor, a signal is transmitted into the cell through a hinge region and a transmembrane region, an intracellular signal region converts the signal into an activation signal, an effector cell is activated, and the effector cell proliferates to produce a cytokine to kill the tumor cell. Although CAR-T treatment of tumors has shown some tumor clearance, and CD19-CAR treatment in particular has made a breakthrough, CAR-T treatment still has a series of problems to be solved by further exploration: 1. lack of ideal tumor antigens as targets; 2. tumor-mediated immunosuppression; 3. serious toxic side effects of CAR-T therapy.
Multiple Myeloma (MM), a malignant tumor with abnormal proliferation of plasma cells, an incurable hematological malignancy, can affect the production of white blood cells, red blood cells and stem cells in the bone marrow. Plasma cells that have become cancerous in the bone marrow are called myeloma cells, and they proliferate in large quantities in the bone marrow, replace normal cells in the bone marrow, destroy the normal immune system, inhibit the normal hematopoietic function, and further impair the functions of bones and soft tissues (nerves, muscles, etc.). In the united states, multiple myeloma is the second largest malignancy of the blood system following non-hodgkin's lymphoma, accounting for approximately 1% of all malignancies, 13% of hematologic malignancies, and 2% of deaths due to malignancies. The mean age of onset is 62 years in men, 61 years in women, and only 2% of patients under 40 years of age.
CD38 is uniformly highly expressed on multiple myeloma cells, while it is poorly expressed on normal lymphocytes and bone marrow cells, as well as on some tissues of non-hematopoietic origin, and is a specific antigen for multiple myeloma. Because of the high expression of CD38 on MM, CD 38-targeted immunotherapy theoretically has a safer and more effective therapeutic effect, and the development of CD 38-targeted drugs such as (e.g., daratumumab, isatuximab, MOR 202) has been carried out abroad, but the efficacy is limited and safety problems still occur; therefore, there is a need to find new specific and more effective CD38 targeting therapies, and although some target CARs are being tested, there are relatively few CARs for MM therapy, further engineering tests are still needed for stability and safety of CAR performance, and how to select more stable and suitable scFv (single chain antibody) is also an unsolved key issue in CAR research, so that a safer and more effective CD38-CAR targeting development and preparation is necessary.

The basic structure of the CD38-CAR (human chimeric antigen receptor targeting CD 38) is composed of an EF1 alpha promoter (promoter), a leader peptide (SP), a single-chain antibody (scFv) specifically recognizing CD38 antigen, a tag peptide segment (Myc-tag), a human CD8a molecule Hinge region (CD 8 Hinge), a transmembrane region (CD 8 TM), a human CD28 molecule intracellular region (CD 28), a human 4-1BB molecule intracellular region (4-1 BB), a human CD3 zeta molecule intracellular region (CD 3 zeta), a 2A self-cleavage peptide (T2A) and a puromycin (puromycin) gene which are connected in series in sequence, and the structure formed by the series connection is shown as hCD38 CAR in figure 1. The tandem structure is denoted hereinafter by EF 1. Alpha. -SP-CD 38-CAR-T2A-Puro.
2. CAR sequence synthesis and vector construction
The CAR coding sequence is synthesized by Kinsley of Jiangsu, and the obtained EF1 alpha-SP-CD 38-CAR-T2A-Puro structural DNA sequence (shown in figure 1) is inserted into a pMD19-T plasmid through enzyme digestion connection to construct a non-viral electrotransformation expression plasmid pMD19-T-EF1 alpha-SP-CD 38-CAR-T2A-Puro, namely the pMD19-T plasmid capable of expressing a chimeric antigen receptor.
3. Electrotransformation expression plasmid extraction
pMD19-T-EF1 alpha-SP-CD 38-CAR-T2A-Puro was transferred into E.coli and amplified in E.coli in large quantities. Then, plasmid DNA of Escherichia coli was extracted using an endotoxin-free plasmid macrodrawing kit.
4. T cell transfection and purification
Separating lymphocytes from human serum, and adding T lymphocyte culture fluid [ CTS ] TM AIM V TM SFM (RUO), thermo, cargo number: a3021002]The irradiated PBMC cells, the OKT-3, the hIL-2 and the endotoxin-free plasmid DNA are subjected to expansion culture, and the plasmid pMD19-T-EF1 alpha-SP-CD 38-CAR-T2A-Puro is transfected by adopting an electrotransformation modeTransferring into T cells to obtain T lymphocytes with EF1 alpha-SP-CD 38-CAR-T2A-Puro gene, namely CAR-T cells.
5. T cell CAR expression efficiency
After 7 days of T cell transfection, puromycin was added at a certain concentration to the T lymphocyte culture broth. After 20 days of T cell transfection, T cell surface CAR expression was examined by flow cytometry. The results are shown in FIG. 2. Figure 2 shows that the CAR expression positive rate reached about 100%, demonstrating the success of CAR expression plasmid construction and electrotransformation plasmid.
6. Long-acting killing effect of CAR-T cells on tumor cells over-expressing related antigens
To determine the better sustained killing of CD38-CAR-T cells, the experiments were performed using target cells carrying the fluorescence signal of luciferase. The ratio of effective target (effector cell: target cell, E: T) 4:1 and 1:1, T cells (effector cells) were co-incubated with CD 38-positive target cells (Daudi-Fluc, RPMI-8226-Fluc) or CD 38-negative target cells (K562-Fluc), respectively, for 72 hours (as shown in fig. 3). After the completion of the co-incubation, a substrate for fluorescence signal of luciferase (Perkinelmer, cat # 122799) was added, and then the apoptosis of the target cells was analyzed by a microplate reader. The results show that the CAR-T Cells have strong killing capacity on tumor Cells (CD 38+ Cells) over-expressing CD38, and have little influence on CD38 negative Cells, which indicates that the CAR-T Cells have strong specific killing capacity.
7. Toxic side effects of CAR-T cells on normal cells that underexpress the relevant antigen
To further determine the toxic side effects of CD38-CAR-T cells (pMD-T-CD 38-scfv-003-CAR T cells in FIG. 4) on normal cells with low expression of CD38, we previously stained human Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMC) using the CellTrace (TM) blood Cell Proliferation Kit (Thermo, cat # C34571). The ratio of effective target to target (effector cells: target cells, E: T) 4: 1. 1: 1T cells (effector cells) were incubated with normal PBMC cells that underexpress CD38 for 72 hours (as shown in FIG. 4). After the end of the co-incubation, the cells were harvested by centrifugation and co-incubated with anti-CD 3 and anti-CD 38 antibodies, and finally PBMC cells were analyzed for CD 38-positive apoptosis by flow cytometry. The results show that CAR-T cells have very low toxic side effects on normal cells that under express CD 38.
8. Animal experiments to verify CAR-T cell function
Immunodeficient mice were inoculated via tail vein with 5X 10 5 7 days after each Daudi cell, 1X 10 cells were injected into the tail vein 7 Individual CAR-T cells were treated. At 0,7 days of treatment, tumor signals were observed using a small animal in vivo imaging device. As shown in figure 5, tumor signals were significantly reduced 7 days after CAR-T cell injection, suggesting that CAR-T cells have good tumor killing ability.
In conclusion, the scFv sequence or the chimeric antigen receptor provided by the invention has the capacity of recognizing CD38 with moderate affinity, can efficiently recognize target cells, and has low toxic and side effects and high safety on cells with low expression of CD 38.
