Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of antibody technology, and in particular to the preparation and application of anti-influenza B (FluB) monoclonal antibodies. Background Art

[0002] Influenza viruses are classified into three types: A (A), B (B), and C (C), based on the antigenic differences between their nucleoprotein (NP) and matrix protein (MP). Type A causes the most severe symptoms, while type B is less severe but can still cause outbreaks. Type C typically causes milder symptoms, and type D is a newly discovered virus, with much research still underway. Types A, B, and C are very similar in overall structure. Virus particles are 80 to 120 nanometers in diameter and are typically roughly spherical, but may also occur in filamentous forms.

[0003] Influenza virus B belongs to the Orthomyxoviridae family and the genus Influenza B. It consists of approximately 14,648 nucleotides, divided into eight distinct segments, encoding approximately 11 proteins. The HA protein on the surface of the FluB virus is a trimer, with its gene segments consisting of two parts, HA1 and HA2. HA1, located at the head of the trimer, is a spherical structure containing receptor binding sites and is the primary antigenic region of the influenza virus. Amino acid mutations in this region can alter the antigenicity of the influenza virus, leading to outbreaks and epidemics of influenza B. The HA2 site, located at the base of the trimer, has a handle-like structure and contains a fusion peptide that mediates the fusion of the viral envelope with the host envelope. Some monoclonal antibodies targeting HA2 can neutralize the virus by inhibiting membrane fusion of the influenza virus.

[0004] Based on differences in antigenicity and genetic characteristics, influenza B is divided into two major lineages: Victoria and Yamagata. The HA1 genes of the two lineages encode different amino acids (340 AAs in the V lineage and 338-339 AAs in the Y lineage. The Y lineage lacks AAs at position 163, and some strains lack AAs at position 166). It is also speculated that over the past decade, four antigenic determinants on HA1 (region A: 116-137; region B: 141-150; region C: 162-167; and region D: 194-202), totaling 17 AAs, have changed. The average difference between the V and Y lineages is 5.4%-10.2%, and the amino acid difference and genetic distance between the two lineages have tended to increase over time.

[0005] Compared to influenza A virus, there are relatively few reports of monoclonal antibodies targeting influenza B virus, and most of them are mouse antibody sequences obtained through hybridoma technology. The quality control and calibrator products in most kits need to be bound to anti-human IgM secondary antibodies when used, so they require a human Fc to bind to them. Therefore, natural human antibodies screened from phage-derived fully human antibody libraries have inherent advantages and are more efficient than later chimeric expression construction of mouse antibodies.

[0006] Influenza B virus can cause influenza virus pneumonia. Patients with weakened immune systems, advanced age, or those with serious underlying medical conditions are more likely to contract pneumonia. Therefore, influenza B virus detection is of great clinical significance. However, in vitro diagnostics (IVDs) primarily utilize plasma from positive patients, which presents numerous challenges, such as difficulty collecting and scaling up. Therefore, the development of in vitro methods to generate anti-FluB monoclonal antibodies for use as quality controls and calibrators for use in test kits is highly urgent. Summary of the Invention

[0007] In view of this, the present invention provides the preparation and application of a fully human monoclonal antibody against FluB. This monoclonal antibody, as a quality control and calibrator, can undergo a significant enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) reaction with recombinant antigens of the Victoria and Yamagata lines of the FluB virus HA gene. Its accelerated stability at 37°C meets the requirements for use in the kit, and the preparation method is simple, making it suitable for mass production.

[0098] Lymphocytes were isolated from anticoagulated blood of respiratory patients using human peripheral blood lymphocyte separation medium (Solarbio, Beijing), and total cellular RNA was extracted using an RNA extraction kit (Shengang, Shanghai) (electrophoresis results are shown in Figure 1 ), using Oligo-dT primers and the extracted RNA as a template using the NEB first-strand synthesis kit (ProtoScript ® cDNA was generated by reverse transcription using the First Strand cDNA Synthesis Kit (Cat.

[0128] The PCR reaction conditions were as follows: pre-denaturation at 95°C for 5 min; denaturation at 95°C for 30 s, annealing at 56°C for 30 s, and extension at 72°C for 30 s, for a total of 30 cycles; and extension at 72°C for another 10 min. The light and heavy chain variable regions after gel excision and purification were connected to T vectors and sent for testing to obtain the light and heavy chain variable region sequences. Then, the OverLap PCR technology was used to splice the two into a scFv gene fragment through the SfiⅠ restriction site. The PCR products of the light chain, heavy chain and scFv gene fragments were detected by 1% agarose gel electrophoresis. The results showed that the size of the light and heavy chain variable regions was about 350 bp, and the size of the scFv fragment after splicing was about 750 bp (such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown).

[0129] Example 2: Construction of scFv phage library

[0130] The scFv gene fragment was ligated to the phage vector pComb3XSS via the SfiⅠ restriction site. The ligation product was electroporated into E. coli TG1 competent cells and incubated with shaking at 37°C for 1 h in 2×YT-AG medium (containing 2% glucose and 100 μg / mL AMP). 10 μL of the bacterial solution was inoculated into 2×YT-AG medium and cultured overnight. Plaque formation was observed and the antibody library titer was calculated:

[0131] Antibody library titer (PFU / mL) = dilution × number of plaques (PFU) / volume of bacterial solution used for plating (mL).

[0132] Randomly select 10-20 positive colonies and send them to Sangon Technology Co., Ltd. for sequencing, colony PCR identification, and analysis of the antibody library diversity. Helper phage M13K07 was added to the remaining bacterial suspension and incubated at 37°C for 30 minutes. After centrifugation, the cells were resuspended in 100 mL of 2×YT medium (containing 1 μM IPTG and 100 μg / mL AMP) and incubated overnight on a shaker at 30°C. The supernatant was collected by centrifugation, and one-quarter volume of 20% PEG / 2.5 M NaCl was added. The phage were sedimented on ice for 50 minutes, the pellet was collected by centrifugation, and resuspended in PBS to obtain the phage antibody library.

[0133] Example 3: Enrichment and screening of human anti-FluB virus phage antibody library

[0134] FluB Victoria and Yamagata recombinant antigens were mixed in a 1:1 ratio and coated onto immunotubes at a concentration of 10 µg / mL. The mixture was incubated overnight at 4°C and blocked with 5% skim milk at 37°C for 2 h. After washing twice with PBST, 1 mL of the scFv phage library prepared in Example 2 was added. The tubes were incubated with shaking at room temperature for 2 h, washed 10 times with PBST, and 1 mL of 100 mM triethylamine dissociation buffer was added. The tubes were incubated at room temperature for 10 min, neutralized with 1 M Tris-HCl (pH 6.4), and 50 mL of TG1 bacteria in the logarithmic growth phase were added. After incubation at 37°C for 30 min, 10 µL of the mixture was plated on 2×YT / GA plates and incubated overnight at 37°C to measure the yield. The remaining culture was expanded until the A600 of the culture was approximately 0.5. Helper phage M13K07 was added. The subsequent process was consistent with Example 2. The above screening process was repeated for four rounds to enrich for phages that bind to the FluB antigen.

[0135] Example 4: Induced expression of positive phage clones

[0136] After four rounds of enrichment, single colonies were randomly selected and plated in six 96-well plates. 400 μL of 2×YT / GA medium (2% glucose, 50 μg / mL Amp) was added to each well and cultured overnight at 37°C. The next day, 5 μL of the overnight culture was transferred to a 96-well plate containing 100 μL of culture medium for activation. The cells were incubated at 37°C for 2-3 hours. When the OD value was approximately 2, 20 μL of a mixture of 2×YT and helper phage (MOI = 5) was added to each well and incubated at 37°C for 30 minutes. After incubation on a shaker for 1.5 hours, 300 μL of 2×YT-AK (100 μg / mL Amp, 50 μg / mL Kan) was added to each well and cultured overnight for 16-18 hours. The next day, the supernatant was centrifuged and collected for analysis.

[0137] Example 5: Phage monoclonal ELISA detection

[0138] V and Y antigens were coated onto ELISA plates separately at 4°C overnight. The plates were then blocked with Casein blocking buffer at 37°C for 2 hours, then dried and set aside. Monoclonal phage was added and the plates were incubated at 37°C for 30 minutes. The plates were then washed six times with PBST and dried. HRP-M13 was added and the plates were incubated at 37°C for 30 minutes. The plates were washed five times with PBST and dried. The plates were then color-developed for 15 minutes and terminated with 2 M H₂SO₄. The absorbance at 450 nm was measured using a microplate reader. Two clones with strong reactivity were sent for sequencing.

[0139] Example 6: Nucleic acid sequence analysis of variable region genes and construction of full-length IgM antibodies

[0140] Antibody 1-FH105: its heavy chain variable region has the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 1; its light chain variable region has the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 2.

[0141] Antibody 2-FH128: Its heavy chain variable region has the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 5; its light chain variable region has the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 6.

[0142] Using two selected positive clones as templates, the variable region gene sequences were amplified by PCR and inserted into the laboratory vectors IgM-PCMV3 and LC-PCMV3 (containing the constant region sequences) using HindIII / XbaI. The recombinant plasmids were transformed into competent DH5α cells, and positive clones were selected for sequencing and plasmid extraction.

[0143] Example 7: Expression of full-length IgM antibody

[0144] Adjust the density of Expi CHO cells to 3×10 cells per day before transfection. 6cells / mL to 4 x 10 6 cells / mL, and the cells were diluted to 6 x 10 6 The extracted plasmids were diluted according to the ExpiFectamine CHO transfection reagent instructions, and the plasmid DNA and liposomes were diluted at a ratio of 1 μg: 5 μL to transfect the cells, and the FH105 and FH128 antibody plasmids contained light and heavy chain plasmids and J chain plasmids, wherein HC:LC:J = 1:1:1. After 24 h, 24% CHO feed and 0.6% enhancer were added, and the supernatant was harvested after the cell viability decreased to about 70%-75%.

[0145] Example 8: Purification of human anti-FluB virus full-length IgM antibody

[0146] The supernatant of the harvested FH105 and FH128 antibodies was filtered through a 0.45 μm filter membrane, and the chromatography column filled with Protein L filler was equilibrated with ultrapure water and buffer (0.02 M PBS, pH 7.4) in sequence, and the filtered antibody supernatant was loaded, equilibrated again, and finally eluted with dissociation buffer (0.1 M sodium citrate pH 2.3) to collect the target protein antibody, and the protein content was detected using a spectrophotometer NanoDrop One and the protein expression level was detected by SDS-PAGE and SEC-HPLC.

[0147] The results show that after purification, the expression amounts of the FH105 and FH128 antibodies are 200 mg / L and 150 mg / L, respectively, and the molecular weights of the heavy chains are about 65 KD, and the molecular weights of the light chains are about 25 KD, which are consistent with the expectations. Figure 4 The HPLC detection results show that the purity of the antibodies is more than 98% (about 150 KDa). The HPLC results show that most of the target antibodies exist in the form of aggregates, and a small part exists in the form of monomers (about 200 kDa in size).

[0148] Example 9: ELISA detection of human anti-FluB virus full-length IgM antibody

[0149] The detection was carried out according to the instruction of the IgM kit, and according to the judgment standard of the kit: S / CO value ≥ 10 AU / mL is positive. The detection results of the prepared FH105 IgM and FH128 IgM human antibodies are shown in Table 1, and the average detection concentration of FH105 IgM and FH128 IgM is 27015 and 25227 respectively, which has strong reactivity and meets the reactivity requirement of positive quality control. Then, the antibody titer (S / CO) of FH105 IgM and FH128 IgM was adjusted to low, medium and high levels (target values are 3±1, 7±1 and 13±1 respectively), and after freeze-drying, the titer variation amplitude after 7 days of heat acceleration at 37℃ for 14 days was examined, and the stability data is shown in Table 2. The variation amplitude is within 10%, which meets the requirement of reagent use. Since the reactivity of FH105 IgM antibody is 7% higher than that of FH128 IgM antibody, FH105 is preferred.
