Anti-GUCY 2C humanized antibody, chimeric antigen receptor thereof and application thereof
Priority statement
The application claims priority to a chinese patent application with application number 202311208651.5, application day 2023, 9 and 18, entitled "an anti-GUCY 2C humanized antibody and chimeric antigen receptor and use thereof", the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.
Technical Field
The present disclosure relates to the field of antibodies, in particular, to anti-GUCY 2C humanized antibodies, chimeric antigen receptors thereof, and uses thereof.
Background
Guanylate cyclase C (guanylyl cyclase C, abbreviation: GUCY 2C) is a transmembrane receptor expressed predominantly on the intestinal glands and on top of villous cells. GUCY2C is expressed in a variety of gastrointestinal malignancies, including more than 95% of large bowel cancers and more than 50% of stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancers, with GUCY2C being highly expressed in most colon cancers at all stages including liver metastases, moderately differentiated and highly differentiated gastrointestinal tumors often being associated with higher membrane expression of GUCY 2C.
GUCY2C is limited and expressed at the top end of intestinal epithelial tight connection of normal tissues to a great extent, and the tumor breaks the normal tight connection structure to expose the GUCY2C more thoroughly, so that compared with the normal tissues, only GUCY2C antibody is combined, and the effect on the normal tissues is avoided.
Chimeric antigen receptor T cell immunotherapy, abbreviated as CAR-T, is a method for treating a patient by modifying T cells of the patient in vitro, so that the T cells of the patient have the capability of recognizing tumor cells, and reinjecting the T cells into the patient for treatment after in vitro expansion culture. Currently, CD 19-targeted CAR-T has achieved tremendous results in the treatment of B-cell hematological tumors. GUCY2C targets have good specificity, and CAR-T cells targeting GUCY2C can be developed to treat colorectal cancer and the like.

Detailed Description
For the purpose of making the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present disclosure more apparent, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure are clearly and completely described below, but the description and the embodiments should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present disclosure. The specific conditions are not noted in the examples and are carried out according to conventional conditions or conditions recommended by the manufacturer. The reagents or apparatus used were conventional products commercially available without the manufacturer's attention. Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure belongs.
The three-letter and one-letter codes for amino acids used in the present invention are as described in J.biol. Chem,243, p3558 (1968).
The term "amino acid" refers to naturally occurring amino acids and synthetic amino acids, as well as amino acid analogs or amino acid mimics that function in a manner similar to naturally occurring amino acids. Naturally occurring amino acids are those encoded by the genetic code, as well as modified amino acids such as hydroxyproline, gamma-carboxyglutamic acid and O-phosphoserine, common natural amino acids include alanine (Ala; A), arginine (Arg; R), asparagine (Asn; N), aspartic acid (Asp; D), cysteine (Cys; C), glutamic acid (Glu; E), glutamine (Gln; Q), glycine (Gly; G), histidine (His; H), isoleucine (Ile; I), leucine (Leu; L), lysine (Lys; K), methionine (Met; M), phenylalanine (Phe; F), proline (Pro; P), serine (Ser; S), threonine (Thr; T), tryptophan (Trp; W), tyrosine (Tyr; Y) and valine (Val; V). Amino acid analogs refer to compounds that have the same basic chemical structure as a naturally occurring amino acid (i.e., an alpha carbon to which hydrogen, carboxyl, amino, and R groups are bound), e.g., homoserine, norleucine, methionine sulfoxide, methionine methyl sulfonium. Such analogs have modified R groups (e.g., norleucine) or modified peptide backbones, but retain the same basic chemical structure as a naturally occurring amino acid. Amino acid mimetics refers to chemical compounds that have a structure that is different from the general chemical structure of an amino acid, but that function in a manner similar to naturally occurring amino acids.
In the present disclosure, the term "antibody" is used in the broadest sense and covers a variety of antibody structures, including but not limited to monoclonal antibodies, polyclonal antibodies, multispecific antibodies (e.g., bispecific antibodies, trispecific antibodies, tetraspecific antibodies, and the like), murine antibodies, chimeric antibodies, full-length antibodies, or antigen-binding fragments (or antigen-binding portions) thereof, so long as they exhibit the desired antigen-binding activity.
In the present disclosure, the term "natural antibody" refers to naturally occurring immunoglobulin molecules. For example, a natural IgG antibody is an iso-tetralin of about 150,000 daltons, consisting of two identical light chains and two identical heavy chains. From N to C-terminal, each heavy chain has one heavy chain variable region (VH, also called variable heavy domain) followed by a heavy chain constant region comprising three constant domains (CH 1, CH2 and CH 3), and from N to C-terminal, each light chain has one light chain variable region (VL, also called variable light domain) followed by one light chain constant region (CL, also called light chain constant domain).
The term "full length antibody" or "whole antibody" refers to an antibody comprising a structure substantially similar to the structure of a natural antibody, or a heavy chain comprising an Fc region.
In the present disclosure, the terms "complementarity determining regions", "CDRs" or "CDRs" refer to the highly variable regions of the heavy and light chains of immunoglobulins, which are regions within the antibody variable domains that contribute primarily to specific binding to an antigen. In particular embodiments of the present disclosure, "CDRs" refers to more than 2 highly variable regions in the heavy and light chains of the antibody.
In the present disclosure, the heavy chain complementarity determining region is denoted by HCDR, the 3 CDR regions comprising HCDR1, HCDR2 and HCDR3 in the heavy chain variable region, the light chain complementarity determining region is denoted by LCDR, and the 3 CDR regions comprising LCDR1, LCDR2 and LCDR3 in the light chain variable region. The amino acid sequence boundaries of the CDRs can be determined by various well-known schemes, such as "Kabat" numbering convention (see Kabat et al (1991), "Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest", 5 th edition, public HEALTH SERVICE, national Institutes of Health, bethesda, MD), "Chothia" numbering convention, "ABM" numbering convention, "contact" numbering convention (see Martin, ACR.protein Sequence and Structure Analysis of Antibody Variable Domains [ J ]. 2001), and ImMunoGenTics (IMGT) numbering convention (Lefranc, M.P. et al, dev.Comp.Immunol.,27,55-77 (2003); front Immunol.2018Oct 16; 9:2278), and the like. In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the CDRs are determined according to IMGT encoding rules. In some embodiments, the anti-human GUCY2C humanized antibody of the disclosure has the heavy chain variable regions of HCDR1, HCDR2, and HCDR3 having the amino acid sequences set forth in SEQ ID NO:9, SEQ ID NO:10, and SEQ ID NO:11, respectively, and the light chain variable regions of the antibody has the LCDR1, LCDR2, and LCDR3 having the amino acid sequences set forth in SEQ ID NO:12, amino acids AAS, and SEQ ID NO:14, respectively.
In the present disclosure, "framework region" or "FR" region refers to regions of the antibody heavy and light chain variable regions other than CDRs. The heavy chain framework regions can be further subdivided into contiguous regions (FR 1, FR2, FR3, and FR 4) separated by CDRs, wherein the heavy chain framework regions can be further subdivided into contiguous regions separated by HCDR comprising HFR1, HFR2, HFR3, and HFR4 framework regions, and the light chain framework regions can be further subdivided into contiguous regions separated by LCDR comprising LFR1, LFR2, LFR3, and LFR4 framework regions. The heavy chain variable region is obtained by aligning and linking HFR1-HCDR1-HFR2-HCDR2-HFR3-HCDR3-HFR4 with FR (from amino terminus to carboxyl terminus) and the light chain variable region is obtained by aligning and linking LFR1-LCDR1-LFR2-LCDR2-LFR3-LCDR3-LFR4 with FR (from amino terminus to carboxyl terminus). In alternative embodiments, the antibodies of the present disclosure include a heavy chain framework region in a heavy chain variable region as set forth in any one of SEQ ID NOs 1, 3, 5 or 7, and a light chain framework region in a light chain variable region as set forth in any one of SEQ ID NOs 2,4,6 or 8. In alternative embodiments, the antibody has a framework region amino acid sequence that is at least 80%, 81%, 82%, 83%, 84%, 85%, 86%, 87%, 88%, 89%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, or 99% identical to the framework region described above.
The term "identity" or "sequence identity" refers to the degree to which the amino acids/nucleic acids of two sequences are identical at equivalent positions (i.e., percent) when the two sequences are optimally aligned (with gaps introduced as necessary to obtain the maximum percent sequence identity, and without any conservative substitutions being considered as part of the sequence identity). To determine percent sequence identity, the alignment may be accomplished in a variety of ways well known to those skilled in the art, for example using well known computer software such as BLAST, BLAST-2, ALIGN-2 or Megalign (DNASTAR) software. One skilled in the art can determine parameters suitable for measuring alignment, including any algorithms required to achieve maximum alignment over the full length of the sequences compared.
The term "chimeric" antibody refers to an antibody in which a portion of the heavy and/or light chains are derived from a particular species and the remainder of the heavy and/or light chains are derived from other species.
The term "humanized" antibody is an antibody that retains the reactivity of a non-human antibody while having lower immunogenicity in humans. For example, this can be accomplished by retaining the non-human CDR regions and replacing the remainder of the antibody with its human counterparts (i.e., the framework regions of the heavy chain variable region, the framework regions of the light chain variable region, and the human antibody constant region of a human antibody).
The term "antigen binding fragment" is a portion of an intact antibody that specifically binds to an antigen to which the intact antibody binds. It will be readily appreciated by those skilled in the art from the disclosure herein that antigen binding fragments may be obtained by methods known in the art, for example, enzymatic digestion methods (including pepsin or papain) and/or by methods of chemical reduction cleavage of disulfide bonds, and may also be obtained by recombinant genetic techniques or by synthesis using an automated peptide synthesizer (e.g., an automated peptide synthesizer of Applied BioSystems).
In alternative embodiments, the antigen binding fragment is any one of F (ab ') 2, fab', fab, scFab, dsFv, fv, and scFv. "Fab" is a monovalent fragment consisting of the VL, VH, CL and CH1 domains. "Fv" is composed of VH and VL, and "dsFv" is a disulfide stabilized Fv fragment. "Fab '" contains VL, CL and VH and CH1, and also contains a region between the CH1 and CH2 domains, so that an interchain disulfide bond can be formed between the two heavy chains of the two Fab ' fragments to form the F (ab ') 2 molecule. "F (ab ') 2" comprises a bivalent fragment of two Fab' fragments linked at the hinge region by a disulfide bond. A "single chain Fab fragment" or "scFab" is a polypeptide consisting of VH, CH1, VL, CL and a linker, wherein the antibody domain and the linker have one of the following sequences in the N-terminal to C-terminal direction a) VH-CH 1-linker-VL-CL, b) VL-CL-linker-VH-CH 1, C) VH-CL-linker-VL-CH 1 or d) VL-CH 1-linker-VH-CL. An "scFv" is a fusion protein comprising a light chain variable region and a heavy chain variable region, wherein the light chain variable region and the heavy chain variable region are linked by a peptide linker, are capable of being expressed as a single chain polypeptide, and the scFv retains the specificity of the intact antibody from which it is derived. Unless otherwise specified herein, an scFv may have VL and VH variable regions in any order, e.g., the N-to C-terminus of an scFv polypeptide may comprise a) a VL-linker-VH or b) a VH-linker-VL.
The terms "Linker", "connecting peptide", "connecting polypeptide", "Linker" or "Linker" in this disclosure refer to a connecting unit that connects two polypeptide fragments, typically with some flexibility, without loss of function of the original protein domain by the use of a Linker. The linker may be a peptide linker comprising one or more amino acids, typically about 1-30, 2-24 or 3-15 amino acids. In some embodiments, the linker is a linker selected from (GxS) y, wherein x is selected from an integer from 1 to 5, y is selected from an integer from 0 to 6, in some embodiments, the linker is a linker selected from (GxS) y, wherein x is selected from an integer from 1 to 5, and y is selected from an integer from 1 to 6.
The term "epitope" refers to a region on an antigen that is capable of specifically binding to an antibody. Epitopes can be formed by continuous amino acid strings (linear epitopes) or comprise discontinuous amino acids (conformational epitopes), for example becoming spatially close due to folding of the antigen (i.e. tertiary folding of the antigen by the nature of the protein). Conformational epitopes differ from linear epitopes in that the binding of the antibody to the conformational epitope is lost in the presence of denaturing solvents. Conformational epitopes typically comprise at least 3, at least 4, at least 5, at least 6, at least 7 or more amino acids in a unique spatial conformation. Screening for antibodies that bind a particular epitope (i.e., those that bind the same epitope) can be performed using methods well known in the art, including, but not limited to, alanine scanning, peptide blotting, peptide cleavage analysis, epitope excision, epitope extraction, chemical modification of the antigen (see prot. Sci.9 (2000) 487-496), and cross-blocking, among others.
An antibody that binds to the same epitope as the reference antibody or that competes for binding with the reference antibody means an antibody that blocks the binding of the reference antibody to its antigen by 50% or more, or an antibody whose binding to its antigen is blocked by 50% or more by the reference antibody in a competition assay. For example, in order to determine whether a test antibody binds to the same epitope as a reference antibody, the reference antibody is allowed to bind to an antigen under saturated conditions, and then the ability of the test antibody to bind to the antigen is evaluated after removing excess reference antibody, it can be concluded that the test antibody binds to a different epitope than the reference antibody if the test antibody is able to bind to the antigen after saturation binding of the reference antibody, and that the test antibody can bind to the same epitope as the reference antibody if the test antibody is unable to bind to the antigen after saturation binding of the reference antibody. To confirm whether the antibodies to be tested bind to the same epitope, they can be detected using routine experimentation (e.g., peptide mutation and binding assays using ELISA, RIA, surface plasmon resonance, flow cytometry, or any other quantitative or qualitative antibody binding assay available in the art). In some embodiments, two antibodies are considered to bind to the same or overlapping epitope if one excess (in 1-fold, 5-fold, 10-fold, 20-fold, or 100-fold amounts) of the antibody inhibits antigen binding of the other by at least 50%, at least 75%, at least 90%, or even 99% or more, as measured in a competitive binding assay (see, e.g., junghans et al, cancer res.50 (1990) 1495-1502).
The terms "specifically bind", "specifically bind" and "specifically bind" refer to antibodies that bind to an antigen or epitope within the antigen with higher affinity than other antigens or epitopes. Typically, an antibody binds an antigen or epitope within an antigen with an equilibrium dissociation constant (KD) of about 1 x 10 -7 M or less (e.g., about 1 x 10 -8 M or less, about 1 x 10 -9 M or less, about 1 x 10 -10 M or less, about 1 x 10 -11 M or less, or about 1 x 10 -12 M or less). Antibody KD can be measured using conventional procedures, e.g., bySurface plasmon resonance measurement.
The term "affinity" refers to the overall strength of non-covalent interactions between a single binding site of a molecule (e.g., an antibody) and its binding ligand (e.g., an antigen). As used herein, unless otherwise indicated, binding "affinity" refers to an internal binding affinity that reflects a 1:1 interaction between members of a binding pair (e.g., an antibody and an antigen). The affinity of a molecule X for its ligand Y can generally be expressed by a dissociation constant (KD). Affinity can be measured by conventional methods known in the art. The term "kassoc" or "ka" refers to the rate of association of a particular antibody-antigen interaction, and the term "kdis" or "kd" refers to the rate of dissociation of a particular antibody-antigen interaction. The term "KD" refers to the dissociation constant, which is obtained from the ratio of KD to ka (i.e., KD/ka) and is expressed as molar concentration (M). The KD values of antibodies can be determined using methods well known in the art. For example, surface plasmon resonance (e.g., biacore) is measured using a biosensing system such as a system, or affinity in solution is measured by Solution Equilibrium Titration (SET).
The term "effector functions" refers to those biological activities attributable to the Fc region of an antibody (either the Fc region of a native sequence or the Fc region of a mutation in an amino acid sequence). Examples of antibody effector functions include, but are not limited to, C1q binding and complement dependent cytotoxicity, fc receptor binding, antibody dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC), phagocytosis, down-regulation of cell surface receptors (e.g., B cell receptors), and B cell activation.
The term "monoclonal antibody" refers to a population of substantially homogeneous antibodies, i.e., the amino acid sequences of the antibody molecules comprised in the population are identical, except for natural mutations that may be present in minor amounts. In contrast, polyclonal antibody preparations typically include a plurality of different antibodies having different amino acid sequences in their variable domains, which are typically specific for different epitopes. "monoclonal" refers to the characteristics of the antibody obtained from a substantially homogeneous population of antibodies and is not to be construed as requiring production of the antibody by any particular method. In some embodiments, the antibodies provided herein are monoclonal antibodies.
The term "antigen" refers to a molecule capable of being bound by an antigen binding protein (e.g., an antibody) selective binding agent. An antigen may have one or more epitopes that are capable of interacting with different antigen binding proteins (e.g., antibodies).
The term "anti-human GUCY2C antibody" or "binding to human GUCY2C antibody" refers to an antibody that is capable of binding human GUCY2C with sufficient affinity. In certain embodiments, antibodies that bind to human GUCY2C have a dissociation constant (KD) of < about 1 μm, < about 100nM, < about 10nM, < about 1nM, < about 0.1nM, < about 0.01nM, or < about 0.001nM (e.g., 10 -8 M or less, e.g., 10 -8 M to 10 -12 M, e.g., 10 -9 M to 10 -10 M). In certain embodiments, the anti-human GUCY2C antibodies bind to GUCY2C epitopes that are conserved in GUCY2C from different species (e.g., monkey, human).
The term "nucleic acid" is used interchangeably herein with the term "polynucleotide" and refers to deoxyribonucleotides or ribonucleotides and polymers thereof in either single-or double-stranded form. The term encompasses nucleic acids containing known nucleotide analogs or modified backbone residues or linkages, which are synthetic, naturally occurring, and non-naturally occurring, have similar binding properties as the reference nucleic acid, and are metabolized in a manner similar to the reference nucleotides. Examples of such analogs include, but are not limited to, phosphorothioates, phosphoramidates, methylphosphonates, chiral-methylphosphonates, 2-O-methylribonucleotides, peptide-nucleic acids (PNAs). An "isolated" nucleic acid refers to a nucleic acid molecule that has been separated from components of its natural environment. An isolated nucleic acid includes a nucleic acid molecule contained in a cell that normally contains the nucleic acid molecule, but which is present extrachromosomally or at a chromosomal location different from its natural chromosomal location. An isolated nucleic acid encoding a polypeptide or fusion protein refers to one or more nucleic acid molecules encoding a polypeptide or fusion protein, including such one or more nucleic acid molecules in a single vector or separate vectors, and such one or more nucleic acid molecules present at one or more locations in a host cell. Unless otherwise indicated, a particular nucleic acid sequence also implicitly encompasses conservatively modified variants thereof (e.g., degenerate codon substitutions) and complementary sequences as well as the sequence explicitly indicated. Specifically, degenerate codon substitutions may be obtained by generating sequences in which the third position of one or more selected (or all) codons is substituted with mixed base and/or deoxyinosine residues, as described in detail below.
The terms "polypeptide" and "protein" are used interchangeably herein to refer to a polymer of amino acid residues. The term applies to amino acid polymers in which one or more amino acid residues are artificial chemical mimics of the corresponding naturally occurring amino acid, as well as to naturally occurring amino acid polymers and non-naturally occurring amino acid polymers.
The term "vector" is a construct capable of transporting another polynucleotide to which it is linked. Expression vectors are vectors suitable for transformation of host cells and contain nucleic acids that direct or control expression of a heterologous coding region to which they are linked, and may include, but are not limited to, sequences that affect or control transcription, translation, and, in the presence of introns, RNA splicing of the coding region to which they are linked. In alternative embodiments, the vector is a "plasmid" that is a circular double stranded DNA loop in which additional DNA segments may be ligated. In alternative embodiments, the vector is a viral vector, such as a lentiviral retroviral adenovirus, an adeno-associated viral vector (AAV or AAV 2), wherein additional DNA segments may be ligated into the viral genome. In alternative embodiments, the vectors are capable of autonomous replication in the host cell into which they are introduced. In alternative embodiments, the vector may be integrated into the genome of the host cell and replicated together with the host genome after introduction into the host cell.
The term "host cell" is a cell into which exogenous nucleic acid has been introduced or a progeny cell thereof. Host cells include "transformants" and "transformed cells," which include primary transformed cells and progeny derived therefrom, regardless of the number of passages, including mutant progeny that have the same function or biological activity as selected or selected in the original transformed cells. Host cells include prokaryotic and eukaryotic host cells, where eukaryotic host cells include, but are not limited to, mammalian cells, insect cell line plant cells, and fungal cells. Exemplary host cells are NSO, SP2 cells, chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells, heLa cells, 3T3 cells, and HEK-293 cells, baby Hamster Kidney (BHK) cells, monkey kidney Cells (COS), human hepatocellular carcinoma cells (e.g., hep G2), A549 cells, pichia pastoris, pichia finland (PICHIA FINLANDICA), candida albicans (Candida albicans), aspergillus niger (Aspergillus niger), aspergillus oryzae (Aspergillus oryzae), trichoderma reesei (Trichoderma reesei).
Herein "CAR" is a chimeric antigen receptor, an engineered receptor, e.g., a receptor capable of anchoring a specific molecule (e.g., an antibody) that recognizes a tumor cell surface antigen or a viral antigen to an immune cell (e.g., a T cell), causing the immune cell to recognize the tumor antigen or viral antigen and kill the tumor cell or virus. Typically, a chimeric antigen receptor comprises, in sequence, an antigen binding domain, a transmembrane region, and an intracellular signaling domain. Chimeric antigen receptors of the present disclosure can be constructed using transmembrane regions and intracellular signaling domains known in the art for constructing CARs. In alternative embodiments, the CAR is a chimeric antigen receptor, the major components of which may also include a transmembrane domain and an intracellular domain. In alternative embodiments, the CAR may further comprise a co-stimulatory molecule. "costimulatory molecule" refers to a molecule that is present on the surface of antigen presenting cells and that binds to a costimulatory molecule receptor on Th cells, producing a costimulatory signal. Proliferation of T lymphocytes requires not only antigen binding but also receiving a co-stimulatory molecular signal. The co-stimulatory signal is transmitted to the T cell primarily by binding of co-stimulatory molecules CD80, CD86 expressed on the surface of the antigen presenting cell to the CD28 molecule on the surface of the T cell. B cells receive costimulatory signals through common pathogen components such as LPS, or through complement components, or through activated antigen-specific CD40L on Th cell surfaces. Costimulatory molecules known in the art for constructing CARs may be employed, including but not limited to CD27, CD28, 4-1BB, OX40, ICOS, B7-H3, and/or any combination thereof.
The term "pharmaceutically acceptable carrier" refers to an inactive substance in a formulation used to deliver a drug such as an antibody. The pharmaceutically acceptable carrier may be an anti-adherent, an adhesive, a coating, a disintegrant, a filler, a b diluent, a preservative, a sweetener, an absorption delaying agent, a wetting agent, an emulsifier, a buffer, etc.
The term "sample" refers to a collection of similar fluids, cells, or tissues isolated from a subject, as well as fluids, cells, or tissues present in the body of a subject. Exemplary samples are biological fluids such as blood, serum and serosal fluids, plasma, lymph, urine, saliva, cyst fluid, tears, fecal matter, sputum, mucous secretions of secretory tissues and organs, vaginal secretions, ascites, pleura, pericardium, peritoneal cavity and other body cavity fluids, fluids collected by bronchial lavage, synovial fluid, liquid solutions in contact with a subject or biological source, such as cell and organ culture media (including cell or organ conditioned media), lavage fluid, and the like, tissue biopsy samples, fine needle punctures, surgically excised tissues, organ cultures, or cell cultures.
The term "administering" or "administering," when applied to an animal, human, experimental subject, cell, tissue, organ, or biological fluid, refers to contacting an exogenous drug, therapeutic, diagnostic, or composition with the animal, human, subject, cell, tissue, organ, or biological fluid.
The term "effective amount" is an amount sufficient to reduce the severity or frequency of symptoms, or to eliminate such symptoms or underlying etiology, or to prevent the appearance of symptoms or underlying etiology thereof, or to ameliorate or improve the damage caused by or associated with a disease state. In some embodiments, the effective amount is a therapeutically effective amount or a prophylactically effective amount. A "therapeutically effective amount" is an amount sufficient to treat a disease state or condition, particularly a state or condition associated with the disease state, or otherwise hinder, delay or reverse the progression of the disease state or other undesirable condition associated with the disease in any way. A "prophylactically effective amount" is an amount that, when administered to a subject, will have a predetermined prophylactic effect, such as preventing or delaying the onset (or recurrence) of the disease state, or reducing the likelihood of the onset (or recurrence) of the disease state or related symptoms.
Based on the disclosure of the amino acid sequence of the antibody, a person skilled in the art may use genetic engineering techniques or other techniques (chemical synthesis, recombinant expression) to prepare the antibody, e.g. by separating and purifying the antibody from a culture product of recombinant cells capable of recombinantly expressing the antibody according to any of the above, which is easy to achieve for a person skilled in the art, and on the basis of this, any technique is used to prepare the antibody of the disclosure, which falls within the scope of protection of the disclosure.

1. Anti-human GUCY2C murine antibody
Anti-human GUCY2C murine antibodies can be prepared as described in Chinese patent application (application number: 202211138356.2; title: anti-human guanylate cyclase C antibodies, kit and use thereof), the disclosure of which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.
GUCY2C ECD-His tag protein (the extracellular segment of human GUCY2C protein is C-terminally connected with His tag (6 continuous histidines)) is prepared as immunogen, and Balb/C mice are immunized for multiple times. Immunization was performed once a week for a total of 5-7 times. From the fourth immunization, mouse serum was taken weekly for detection of serum titers of anti-human GUCY2C antibodies. Mice were serum-fold diluted and incubated with K562 (human chronic myelogenous leukemia cell) cell lines (K562-hGUCY C) and K562 cell lines over-expressing human GUCY2C, stained with PE-labeled goat anti-mouse Fc antibody (bioleged), and serum titers detected by flow cytometry. Meanwhile, GUCY2C ECD-His tag protein is coated into a 96-well plate, diluted serum is added for incubation, then HRP-labeled goat anti-mouse Fc antibody is added, and serum titer is detected by ELISA. The mice with the highest titers were determined by flow cytometry and ELISA results, euthanized, splenocytes were collected and fused with the SP20 cell line. And paving the fused cells into a 96-well plate, detecting the binding condition of cell supernatant and K562-hGUCY C by flow cytometry and ELISA after the cells grow fully, selecting cells with strong binding between the supernatant and K562-hGUCY C for monoclonal, and detecting the binding condition of antibodies in the cell supernatant and K562-hGUCY C and K562 cell lines by flow cytometry after the monoclonal cells grow fully.
Monoclonal cells that bind strongly to K562-hGUCY C and that do not bind to the K562 cell line were selected for expanded culture. After one week, the supernatant was collected and the antibodies in the supernatant were purified. A murine monoclonal antibody targeting human GUCY2C (clone No. 1D 1) was obtained, whose variable region sequence:
