preparation example Construction

[0138] The method for preparing the aforementioned bifunctional molecule of the present invention comprises: constructing an expression vector containing the gene sequence of the bifunctional molecule, then transforming the expression vector containing the gene sequence of the bifunctional molecule into a host cell to induce expression, and isolating the expression product to obtain the Bifunctional molecules described above. In a preferred case of the present invention, the expression vector uses pcDNA3.1. The host cell is Chinese hamster ovary cell (CHO).

[0139] 6. Uses of Bifunctional Molecules

[0140] The bifunctional molecule of the invention can be used to prepare T cell expansion agent in vitro. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, it is proved by experiments that the bifunctional molecules in the form of monomers and dimers have in vitro binding activity to CD3 and positive co-stimulatory molecule recombinant antigens, and can be applied to T cell a...

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of biological medicines, and particularly relates to a bifunctional molecule combining CD3 and T-cell positive costimulatory molecules and an application of the bifunctional molecule. A first functional domain capable of combining and activating a CD3 molecule on a T-cell surface and a second functional domain capable of combining and activating the T-cell positive costimulatory molecule are fused into the same protein peptide chain to form the bifunctional molecule, eukaryotic expression system production is adopted, an expression product is singlein structure, a purification process is simple and convenient, protein yield is high, and the preparation process and the product ate stable. Compared with CD3 and T-cell positive costimulatory molecule full-length antibody combination, the bifunctional molecule has better in-vitro expansion effects on T-cells, is simple and convenient to use and can be directly added in a solution form, proteindosage is less, and optimization of the relative proportion of two full-length antibodies is omitted.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of biomedicine, and specifically relates to a bifunctional molecule combined with CD3 and T cell positive co-stimulatory molecules and an application thereof. Background technique [0002] T lymphocytes (T lymphocytes) are derived from the thymus (Thymus), so they are called T cells. Mature T cells exist in the thymus-dependent area of ​​peripheral immune organs, occupy a central position in the adaptive cellular immune response, and also play an important auxiliary role in the humoral immune response induced by thymus-dependent antigens. According to different functions, T cells can be divided into cytotoxic T cells (CTL), helper T cells (Helper T cells, Th) and regulatory T cells (Regulatory T cells, Treg). Among them, CTL expresses CD8 and is the main effector cell of adaptive cellular immunity. Its main function is to specifically recognize the endogenous antigen peptide / MHC class I molecular complex on...
