Problems solved by technology

[0010] Although the various methods [US-A-5846,951; WO-A-0187922] that have been described for linking PSA to therapeutic agents are theoretically feasible, in order to make the protein and the non-reducing end of PSA (with aldehyde form) to produce acceptable yields of the conjugate, the required reaction time would be detrimental to protein stability at higher temperatures (e.g., interferon alfa-2b)
Second, the required reactant concentrations (i.e. polymer excess) may be difficult or uneconomical to achieve

Embodiment 1

[0135] Example 1 - Fractionation of CA (CA, 22.7 kDa, p.d. 1.34) by IEC [ref]

[0136] Load 900ml agarose QFF into an XK50 column and equilibrate with 3 column volumes of wash buffer (20mM triethanolamine; pH 7.4) at a flow rate of 50ml / min. CA (25 g dissolved in 200 ml wash buffer) was loaded onto the column through the injection port at a flow rate of 50 ml / min. Then wash the column with 1.5 column volumes (1350ml) of wash buffer.

[0137] The bound CA was eluted with 1.5 column volumes of different elution buffers (triethanolamine buffer, 20 mM pH 7.4, containing 0 mM to 475 mM NaCl in increments of 25 mM NaCl), and finally all residuals were removed with the same buffer containing 1000 mM NaCl. CA and other residues (if any).

[0138] Samples were concentrated to 20 ml by high-pressure ultrafiltration using a 5 kDa membrane (Vivascience, UK). The buffer of the samples was exchanged with deionized water by repeated ultrafiltration at 4°C. Samples were analyzed for avera...

Embodiment 2

[0139] Example 2: Activation of CA [ref]

[0140] Freshly prepared 0.02 M sodium periodate (NaIO 4 ; 6-fold molar excess over CA) solution was mixed with CA, and the reaction mixture was magnetically stirred for 15 min in the dark. Oxidized CA was precipitated with 70% (final concentration) ethanol, and the mixture was centrifuged at 3000g for 20 minutes. Remove the supernatant and dissolve the pellet with a minimal amount of deionized water. CA was again precipitated by 70% ethanol and centrifuged at 12,000g. The pellet was dissolved with a minimal amount of deionized water, lyophilized and stored at -20°C until use.

Embodiment 3

[0141] Example 3: Determination of the Oxidation State of CA and Derivatives [Reference]

[0142] Quantitative determination of CA oxidation degree with 2,4-Dinitrophenylhydrazine (2,4-DNPH), which interacts with carbonyl compounds to generate a small amount of soluble 2,4-DNPH base hydrazone. Unoxidized CA and oxidized CA (CAO) (5 mg each) were added to 2,4-DNPH reagent (1.0 ml), the solution was shaken and then placed at 37 °C until crystal precipitation was observed [Shrineret.al., 1980] . The (quantitative) degree of oxidation of CA was determined at 630 nm by a method based on the reduction of ferric cyanide ion to ferric ferrocyanide (Persian blue) in alkaline solution [Park and Johnson, 1949]. In this example, glucose was used as the standard.

Abstract

PSA derivatives were synthesized in which the terminal sialic acids at the reducing and / or non-reducing ends were converted to N-hydroxysuccinimide ester (NHS) groups. The derivatives can be reacted with, for example, substrates containing amine groups or hydrazine groups to form uncrosslinked / crosslinked polysialic acid compounds. The substrate may for example be a therapeutically useful drug, peptide or protein or a drug delivery system.

Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application of the 200680012749.1 patent application for invention filed on February 16, 2006, entitled "Activated sialic acid derivatives for protein derivation and conjugation". technical field [0002] The present invention relates to derivatives of compounds such as polysialic acid having terminal sialic acid units, and preferably consisting essentially only of sialic acid units, with N-hydroxysuccinate at the reducing or non-reducing end capable of reacting with the substrate imide ester (NHS) groups, and the invention also relates to processes for the production of these derivatives. These derivatives are used for conjugation to substrates containing amine groups such as peptides, proteins, drugs, drug delivery systems (e.g. liposomes), viruses, cells (e.g. animal cells), microorganisms, synthetic polymers or copolymers things etc. Background technique [0003] Polysialic acid (PSA) is a naturally occurring unbranched polymer of...
