Definitions

  • the immune system is regulated in part by a complex network of chemical signals. These signals include the interleukins such as IL-l ⁇ and IL-l ⁇ .
  • IL-l ⁇ is a polypeptide hormone synthesized and secreted by stimulated monocytes.
  • the initial translation product of IL-l ⁇ is a 31 kDa precursor polypeptide having relatively low biological activity. After synthesis, the 31 kDa precursor for IL-l ⁇ is enzymatically cleaved to its highly active mature form which has a size of about 17.5 kDa.
  • the N- terminus of mature IL-l ⁇ derived from human activated monocytes has been characterized by an N-terminal amino acid sequence beginning with Ala-Pro.
  • the N- terminal Ala residue of human mature IL- 1 ⁇ is in the 117 position and an Asp residue is in the 116 position counting from the N-terminus of human precursor IL-1 ⁇ polypeptide.
  • Mature IL-l ⁇ consists of the C-terminal 153 residues of the precursor polypeptide.
  • IL-l ⁇ biological activity is often determined by assaying for stimulation of thymocyte proliferation.
  • IL-l ⁇ activities include stimulation of B-lymphocyte maturation, lymphocyte proliferation, stimulation of fibroblast growth and induction of acute-phase protein synthesis by hepatocytes.
  • IL-l ⁇ polypeptides Other biological activities have been attributed to IL-l ⁇ polypeptides. These include control of differentiation and activation of lymphocytes, stimulation of lymphokine and prostaglandin production, promotion of inflammation, induction of acute phase proteins, stimulation of bone resorption, and alteration of the level of iron and zinc in blood. Moreover, it has been found that IL-l ⁇ can stimulate the hypothalamus- pituitary-adrenal axis, suggesting that IL-l ⁇ is integrated in the complex neuroendocrine network that controls homeostasis. Maturation and release of mature IL-l ⁇ from macrophages does not proceed by conventional means normally associated with most secretory proteins because the precursor IL-l ⁇ polypeptide lacks a hydrophobic signal sequence.
  • IL-l ⁇ is not associated with a membrane-bound compartment in monocytes.
  • Most secretory proteins .are characterized by the presence of a hydrophobic stretch of amino acids called a signal sequence.
  • the signal sequence directs the translocation of the protein across the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum during protein synthesis. The protein is subsequently ushered out of the cell via exocytosis.
  • Most secreted proteins have a signal sequence at the amino terminal that is removed upon translocation.
  • Other proteins, such as ovalbumin have an internal signal sequence that is not removed upon translocation.
  • the precursor form of IL-l ⁇ lacks any region (either amino terminal or internal) with sufficient hydrophobicity and length to qualify as a signal sequence.
  • Microencapsulation is the process of enveloping certain drags, enzymes, toxins, or other substances in polymeric matrices. It can be used in controlled release or delayed release of drugs.
  • the many applications for encapsulation, the available matrices, and techniques for making and using encapsulation matrices are extensively covered elsewhere (see, for example, Chang, T.M.S.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne des compositions comprenant un immunomodulateur encapsulé, tel que des cytokines et des lymphokines, qui est utilisé comme adjuvant pour stimuler une réponse immunitaire lorsqu'il est administré à un être humain ou à un animal. Par exemple, une lymphokine telle que l'IL-1α ou l'IL-1β peut être utilisée comme immunomodulateur encapsulé dans une matrice de la présente invention. La composition encapsulée peut comprendre un antigène de vaccin, tel qu'un virus entier inactivé ou atténué, des peptides recombinés ou synthétiques et d'autres matériaux antigéniques. La matrice d'encapsulation peut être naturelle ou synthétique. La présente invention concerne également l'utilisation, chez un être humain ou un animal, d'un immunomodulateur encapsulé comme adjuvant dans le but de stimuler les réponses immunitaires à un antigène ou à un autre matériau envers lequel on désire provoquer une réponse immunitaire.
