Problems solved by technology

For example, the PEG method has high production costs, which will lead to a decrease in drug activity; in recent years, it has been found that PEG-modified proteins and their degradation products are easy to accumulate in the kidney, which interferes with the normal kidney filtration; and people will produce certain antibodies to PEG. , indicating that it has certain immunogenicity
[0014] The cytotoxicity and complement activation of Fc can sometimes cause certain damage to the body; Fc fusion proteins are mostly in the form of dimers, and excessive molecular weight will affect the rate of drug molecules passing through the mucosa; Albumin fusion proteins are fermented and purified Degradation and polymerization are prone to occur during storage and storage, which will lead to loss of activity and may cause toxic and side effects; Albumin and Fc need to be expressed by yeast or mammalian cells, which takes a long cycle and high cost

Abstract

The invention relates to a fusion protein for treating diabetes and / or obesity. The structure of the fusion protein is GLP-1 or an analogue and a derivative thereof-connecting peptide-albumin binding protein, the albumin binding protein comprises an ABD structural domain (GA3, ABD035, ABDon) or a DARPin capable of targeting HSA (human serum albumin). The bottleneck problem that the half-life period of GLP-1 or Ex is short is solved by connecting the GLP-1 or Ex with an ABD structural domain or DARPin protein, so that the GLP-1 or Ex can be better applied clinically. According to the present invention, the test results show that the albumin binding protein significantly prolongs the half-life period of GLP-1 or Ex, and improves the hypoglycemic activity in mice. The modified GLP-1 or Ex has a certain body weight reducing effect and can be used for treating or assisting in treating obesity.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, and specifically relates to a series of novel GLP-1 receptor agonists with extended half-life and improved activity, which are mainly used in the field of diabetes treatment or obesity treatment. Background technique [0002] With the improvement of people's living standards, changes in diet structure, and the reduction of physical labor, the number of diabetic patients is gradually increasing. [0003] Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycemia. It has become one of the diseases that seriously threaten human health, and its incidence is increasing year by year. In 2017, there were 420 million people with diabetes worldwide, and this number is expected to reach 630 million by 2045. The total number of people with diabetes in my country has exceeded 114 million, and more than 90% of people with type 2 diabetes have diabetes, and among them, obese people account fo...
