Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of biomedicine technology, and in particular to an antimicrobial peptide RB12 and its use in preparing a medicament for preventing and / or treating uterine cavity diseases. Background Art

[0002] Endometritis refers to an inflammatory disease of the endometrium (the mucosal layer of the uterus). It is an inflammatory response caused by pathogens that infect the endometrium. The main clinical manifestations are lower abdominal pain, fever, abnormal vaginal discharge, and irregular menstruation. As the disease progresses, it can also cause infertility, ectopic pregnancy, and other problems. It mainly occurs in female mammals (including humans and livestock such as cattle, horses, and dogs). Based on the course of the disease, endometritis can be divided into acute endometritis and chronic endometritis. Acute endometritis manifests as a sudden infection accompanied by obvious clinical symptoms (such as fever and purulent discharge), while chronic endometritis manifests as long-term recurrent infection. The symptoms are subtle but can easily lead to complications such as infertility and miscarriage.

[0003] Currently, the main clinical treatment for endometritis is anti-infective drugs. Common clinical drugs include cephalosporins, macrolides, cephalosporins, etc., but the clinical efficacy is not ideal and drug resistance is easy to develop. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to solve the problems of unsatisfactory clinical efficacy and easy drug resistance in the treatment of endometritis by existing anti-infective drugs, the present invention provides an antimicrobial peptide RB12 and its use in the preparation of drugs for preventing and / or treating uterine cavity diseases.

[0005] According to a first aspect of the present invention, an antimicrobial peptide RB12 is provided. The amino acid sequence of the antimicrobial peptide RB12 is shown in SEQ ID NO: 1.

[0006] The pathological mechanism of endometritis is closely related to uterine microbial imbalance and immune microenvironment disturbances. Studies have shown that the normal uterine microbiome is dominated by Lactobacilli. However, the abnormal proliferation of pathogens such as Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus mirabilis, and Staphylococcus aureus can disrupt the microbial balance, induce the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines (such as IL-6 and TNF-α), and lead to endometrial tissue damage and repair disorders. Mixed infections with Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria further exacerbate the difficulty of treating endometritis.

[0007] The inventors of this application used Litopenaeus vannamei as a research subject and isolated a short peptide with the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 from its hemolymph, which is the antimicrobial peptide RB12 provided by the present invention. Experimental verification of the antibacterial activity of the antimicrobial peptide RB12, obtained by solid-phase synthesis, revealed that the antimicrobial peptide RB12 exhibits antibacterial activity against four endometritis-causing bacteria: Escherichia coli (E. coli), Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae), Proteus mirabilis (P. mirabils), and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). In particular, the antimicrobial peptide RB12 exhibits antibacterial activity against E. coli, with an inhibition rate of nearly 80% against E. coli. The antimicrobial peptide RB12 provided by the present invention can inhibit the growth and proliferation of endometritis-causing bacteria, helping to maintain the normal microbial structure and immune microenvironment of the endometrium, thereby achieving effective prevention and treatment of endometritis. This is of great significance for the prevention and clinical treatment of endometritis. Furthermore, the antimicrobial peptide RB12 provided by the present invention can be directly obtained by solid-phase synthesis, which is conducive to the large-scale preparation and large-scale clinical application of the antimicrobial peptide RB12.

[0008] According to a second aspect of the present invention, a gene encoding the antimicrobial peptide RB12 is provided.

[0009] According to the third aspect of the present invention, an expression cassette containing the above encoding gene is provided.

[0010] According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, a recombinant bacterium containing the above-mentioned encoding gene is provided.

[0011] According to a fifth aspect of the present invention, a recombinant vector containing the above-mentioned encoding gene is provided.

[0012] According to a sixth aspect of the present invention, there is provided use of the antimicrobial peptide RB12 in the preparation of a medicament for preventing and / or treating uterine cavity diseases.

[0013] Preferably, the above-mentioned uterine cavity disease includes endometritis.

[0014] Preferably, the drug has an inhibitory effect on at least two of Escherichia coli, Klebsiella, Proteus mirabilis, and Staphylococcus aureus.

[0015] The antimicrobial peptide RB12 provided by the present invention is used in the preparation of a drug for preventing and / or treating uterine cavity diseases. The drug can inhibit the growth and proliferation of endometritis pathogens, which is beneficial to maintaining the normal flora structure and immune microenvironment of the endometrium, thereby achieving effective prevention and treatment of endometritis, which is of great significance for the prevention and clinical treatment of endometritis.

[0016] According to a seventh aspect of the present invention, a pharmaceutical composition for preventing and / or treating uterine cavity diseases is provided, wherein the pharmaceutical composition comprises the above-mentioned antimicrobial peptide RB12.

[0017] Preferably, the above-mentioned uterine cavity disease includes endometritis. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0027] 1. Acquisition of antimicrobial peptide RB12

[0028] The inventors of the present application isolated a short peptide with an amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 from the hemolymph of Litopenaeus vannamei through a large number of experimental studies and named it antimicrobial peptide RB12.

[0029] 2. Solid-Phase Synthesis of Antimicrobial Peptide RB12

[0030] (1) Resin

[0031] In this example, Fmoc-Ala-Wang resin (functional group content of 0.33 mmol / g) was used as the resin in the synthesis of antimicrobial peptide RB12.

[0032] (2) Reagents

[0033] The reagents used in the solid phase synthesis of antimicrobial peptide RB12 are shown in Table 1.

[0034] Table 1 Reagents used in the solid phase synthesis of antimicrobial peptide RB12

[0035]

[0036]

[0037] (3) Synthesis of antimicrobial peptide RB12

[0038] ① Weigh Fmoc-Ala-Wang resin (0.05 mmol) and place it in a solid phase reactor. Add DCM (8 mL) thereto to allow the Fmoc-Ala-Wang resin to swell overnight, then remove the DCM by decompression. Add 200 mL / L piperidine solution (8 mL) to the solid phase reactor containing the Fmoc-Ala-Wang resin and react at room temperature for 5 min, then drain. Continue to add 200 mL / L piperidine solution (8 mL) to the solid phase reactor and react at room temperature for 20 min, then drain. Add DMF (8 mL) to the solid phase reactor to wash the Fmoc-Ala-Wang resin for 1 min, and wash it 3 times in total. Accurately measure the α-amino group of the amino acid solution protected by Fmoc (0.2 mL) mol), HBTU solution (0.2 mmol), and HOBt solution (0.195 mol) were added to a solid phase reactor and reacted for 5 min, then DIEA solution (0.4 mmol) was added and reacted under nitrogen bubble oscillation at room temperature for 2 h; DMF (8 mL) was added to wash the Fmoc-Ala-Wang resin for 1 min, and washed 3 times in total; a piperidine solution (8 mL) with a concentration of 200 mL / L was added to the solid phase reactor and reacted for 5 min at room temperature, and then drained, and a piperidine solution (8 mL) with a concentration of 200 mL / L was continuously added to the solid phase reactor and reacted for 20 min at room temperature, and then drained; DMF (8 mL) was added to the solid phase reactor and washed the Fmoc-Ala-Wang resin for 1 min, and washed 3 times in total;

[0039] ② According to the above steps, the antimicrobial peptide RB12 (amino acid sequence: GVARIRDLLII) is synthesized successively from the carbon end to the nitrogen end of the peptide chain;

[0040] ③ After the synthesis of the antimicrobial peptide RB12 is completed, the Fmoc-Ala-Wang resin with the short peptide chain is washed with DMF and DCM respectively, and the Fmoc-Ala-Wang resin is placed in a vacuum drying oven to dry for later use;

[0041] ④ Cleavage of short peptides: After the Fmoc-Ala-Wang resin is dried, use a spatula to break up the resin as much as possible, transfer it to a chicken heart bottle, add a magnetic stirrer, and slowly add 10 mL of cutting solution for removing the resin (calculated according to the mass ratio, TFA: pure water: anisole: phenol: dithiol = 82.5:5:5:5:2.5) in an ice-water bath, and react in an ice-water bath for 2 hours; after the reaction is completed, transfer the reaction solution together with the Fmoc-Ala-Wang resin to the filter, filter it with a water pump, place the filtrate in a round-bottom flask, and fill it with nitrogen. The mixture was placed in a round-bottom flask and dried under a nitrogen stream. When the sample in the round-bottom flask was blown to a viscous state, the nitrogen tube was removed, and about 20 mL of ice ether pre-cooled at 4°C was poured into the round-bottom flask. After mixing, the mixture was thoroughly dispersed. The resulting mixture was placed in a refrigerated centrifuge and centrifuged at 4°C and 8000 r / min for 15 min. The supernatant was discarded, and the resulting precipitate was dispersed in 20 mL of ice ether pre-cooled at 4°C and centrifuged. The above dispersion and centrifugation operations were repeated three times. The final precipitate was vacuum dried to obtain the crude antimicrobial peptide RB12 provided in this example.

Figure 1 The HPLC chromatogram shown is obtained by collecting the eluate from 11.4 to 12.5 minutes, removing the organic acetonitrile from the eluate using a rotary evaporator, and then freezing the remaining antimicrobial peptide RB12 aqueous solution into ice cubes in a refrigerator. Finally, the water is removed using a freeze dryer to obtain a fluffy solid powder, which is the pure antimicrobial peptide RB12 provided in this example.

[0047] In addition, the antimicrobial peptide RB12 pure product obtained above was identified by mass spectrometry. Figure 2 As shown. Figure 2 It can be seen that the molecular weight of the antimicrobial peptide RB12 is about 1279 Daltons (Da), and its doubly charged ion ([M+2H] 2+ ) and singly charged ions ([M+H] +) showed good signal intensity and clear ion peaks at m / z = 640.6 and m / z = 1279.8, respectively. These data indicate that the obtained antimicrobial peptide RB12 peptide sample is of high quality and suitable for subsequent further sequence analysis and identification experiments.
