Description

靶向CLL1的抗体及其应用 技术领域
本发明属于肿瘤免疫治疗或诊断领域;更具体地,本发明涉及靶向CLL1的抗体及其应用。
背景技术
急性髓系白血病(AML)是成人急性白血病中最常见的类型。最传统的治疗方法是异源造血干细胞移植,然而存在早期或晚期移植相关的并发症,同时存在术后复发的几率。目前治疗AML的化疗药物主要有柔红霉素(DNR)、伊达比星(去甲氧柔红霉素)、阿糖胞苷等,化疗和放疗在一定程度上对AML产生明显抑制作用,但因副作用强、易复发而影响临床顺应性,因此急迫需要针对AML的新型治疗方法。
人C型凝集素样分子1(CLL1)是一类II型跨膜蛋白,它的表达受限于髓系细胞和大多数AML细胞。并且,CLL1表达在白血病干细胞(LSCs)上,但却不表达于造血干细胞(HSCs),因此,CLL1是一种潜在的治疗AML的靶点。
虽然目前有研究人员在进行抗CLL1的抗体的研究,如CN104736562B公开了抗CLL1抗体,然而目前在市场上尚未有可以用于治疗AML的抗CLL1的抗体。

实施例7:CLL1特异性CAR病毒包装以及感染CAR T阳性率的检测
首先用磷酸钙法进行慢病毒的包装,病毒上清用PEG8000/NaCl进行纯化,纯化后对病毒用FACS法进行滴度检测,根据流式细胞仪检测结果,7F8-CART、12G4m-CART和12G4m-M1331 CART病毒滴度分别为2.37E+08、1.41E+08和7.99E+07。
随后用病毒感染CD3/CD28磁珠活化48小时后的T细胞,加入病毒体积(mL)=细胞数x MOI值(MOI=10)/滴度,得到7F8-BBZ CAR T、12G4m-BBZ CAR T和12G4m(M1331)-BBZ-CART细胞,感染后第9天采用FACS方法检测CAR表达阳性率,结果见图11,7F8-BBZ CAR T的CAR阳性率为41.94%,12G4m-BBZ CAR T的CAR阳性率为60.14%,12G4m(M1331)-BBZ CAR T的CAR阳性率为55.64%。
实施例8:靶向CLL1阳性细胞的体外杀伤毒性检测
选择现有技术中报道的抗体M26(CN104736562B)作为阳性对照,采用常规的方案制备了M26-BBZ CAR T。采用CytoTox 96非放射性细胞毒性检测试剂盒(Promega公司)进行。具体方法参照CytoTox 96非放射性细胞毒性检测试剂盒说明书。
效应细胞:按效靶比3:1、1:1、1:3及1:9分别接种Untransduced(UTD)T细胞、7F8-BBZ CART细胞、12G4m-BBZ CART细胞于96孔板。
靶细胞:分别接种50μL 2×10 5/mL的CLL1表达阳性的HL-60与U937细胞以及CLL1表达阴性的K562细胞到相应的96孔板。
实验结果如图12所示,本发明的7F8-BBZ CAR T、12G4m–BBZ CAR T与对照组UTD相比,对CLL1表达阳性的HL-60与U937细胞在效靶比为3:1、1:1和1:3时均有显著的毒性杀伤作用,而对CLL1表达阴性的K562细胞则几乎没有杀伤作用。此外,12G4m–BBZ CAR T对CLL1表达阳性的HL-60与U937细胞,均显示出比现有技术M26-BBZ CAR T有更好的杀伤作用,而7F8-BBZ CAR T对HL-60杀伤作用也优于M26-BBZ CAR T。
实施例9:小鼠体内细胞杀伤实验
1)实验分组:将6-8周龄雌性NPG小鼠随机分为4组,每组6只,分别为Untransduced T(UTD)、12G4m-BBZ CART组(1.0×10 6/只小鼠)、12G4m-BBZ CART组(2.0×10 6/只小鼠)、12G4m-BBZ CART(4.0×10 6/只小鼠)细胞治疗组。
2)皮下移植瘤的接种:收集对数生长期且生长状态良好的HL-60细胞,调整细胞密度为1.5×10 7/mL,接种于NPG小鼠右侧腋部皮下部位,接种体积200μL细胞悬液,即每只小鼠接种3.0×10 6的肿瘤细胞,接种日记为第0天。
3)CAR-T细胞回输:当肿瘤平均体积约为122mm 3时,即接种肿瘤后第8天,注射相应数量的12G4m BBZ细胞或未经转导的T细胞对照。结果显示,CAR T注射后14天,与UTD对照组相比,各组均见明显抑瘤效果,12G4m-BBZ细胞浓度为2.0×10 6时,肿瘤抑制率为57.35%;12G4m-BBZ细胞浓度为4.0×10 6时,肿瘤抑制率为72.89%。同时小鼠体重与UTD对照组相比无显著变化。
实施例10:12G4m(M1331)-BBZ CART的体外杀伤结果
参照实施例8的方法,检测12G4m(M1331)-BBZ CART的体外杀伤效果。

靶细胞:分别接种50μL0 2×10 5/mL的CLL1表达阳性的HL-60与U937细胞以及CLL1表达阴性的K562细胞到相应的96孔板。
实验结果如图13所示,实验结果如图13所示,结果表明,本发明的7F8-BBZ CAR T、12G4m–BBZ CAR T、12G4m(M1331)-BBZ CART与对照组UTD相比,对CLL1表达阳性的HL-60与U937细胞均有显著的毒性杀伤作用,而对CLL1表达阴性的K562细胞则几乎没有杀伤作用。
