Problems solved by technology

Studies have successfully prepared anti-HER-2 single-chain antibodies for tumor targeting. However, single-chain antibodies have poor stability, easy aggregation, and short half-life.
[0004] Single-chain antibody scFv is also used as a drug delivery platform to deliver effector molecules to kill target cells, but the killing domains of many existing immunotoxins are mainly derived from plant or bacterial toxins, which have too large molecular weight, low tissue permeability, and high Immunogenicity and strong side effects limit its clinical application
In order to solve these problems, it has been reported that a series of endogenous apoptosis-related molecules can replace exogenous toxins. After a large number of literature studies, it was found that cytochrome c (Cytc) and DNA fragmentation factor 40 (DFF40) are involved in apoptosis. In the presence of dATP, cytochrome C released from Cytc to the cytoplasm can bind to apoptosis-related factor 1 (Apaf-1), making it form a multimer, and prompting caspase-9 to combine with it to form a The apoptotic body, caspase-9 is activated, and the activated caspase-9 can activate other caspases such as caspase-3, etc., thereby inducing cell apoptosis; DFF40 in apoptotic cells, after being activated by caspase-3, this The protein cleaves internucleosomal DNA, resulting in the characteristic DNA ladder, and since DFF40 is a downstream component in the apoptotic cascade, its expression and activation will lead to irreversible DNA damage leading to definitive cell death

Abstract

The invention discloses an apoptotic protein fusion type anti-HER-2 single-chain antibody as well as a preparation method and application thereof. The apoptotic protein fusion type anti-HER-2 single-chain antibody is formed by coupling an anti-HER2 single-chain antibody with apoptotic protein in different series modes, and the apoptotic protein is a cytochrome C or DNA fragmentation factor 40, canbe specifically coupled with the anti-HER-2 single-chain antibody to form a DFF40-scFv fusion type single-chain antibody and an nCytc (series)-scFv fusion type single-chain antibody. The apoptotic protein fusion type anti-HER-2 single-chain antibody is inserted into the upstream of scFv through a cDNA sequence of the apoptotic protein and cloned into an expression vector to construct recombinantplasmids, the recombinant plasmids are transferred into cells to induce expression of the apoptotic protein fusion type anti-HER-2 single-chain antibody, the preparation method is easy to construct and express, the constructed apoptotic protein fusion type anti-HER-2 single-chain antibody can specifically target HER-2 high-expression malignant tumors and mediate cancer cell apoptosis, and can be used for preparing drugs for targeted therapy of HER-2 high-expression cancers.
