AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In the prior art, PD1-mediated downstream signaling pathways inhibit T cell activation, resulting in poor therapeutic effects of CAR-T or TCR-T tumors. Knocking out PD1 alone only reduces the inhibitory signal but fails to effectively activate T cell anti-tumor function.

Method used

By replacing the ITSM motif of PD1 as an activated ITSM motif or a partial amino acid residue thereof, a PD1 variant is prepared and expressed in T cells through a lentiviral vector system, activating the downstream signaling pathway of T cells to enhance anti-tumor function.

Benefits of technology

Under the co-expression of EAT-2, the PD1 variant can significantly enhance the anti-tumor function of CAR-T or TCR-T cells, overcome the inhibitory nature of wild-type PD1, promote T cell activation and enhance the ability to attack tumors.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of biotechnology, and in particular to a PD1 variant and uses thereof. Background Art

[0002] Programmed death receptor 1 (PD1) is an important inhibitory immune receptor in T cells. The T cell activation process upregulates the expression of PD1, and the PD1-mediated downstream signaling pathway can inhibit activation-related signaling pathways (such as TCR and CD28 signaling pathways), thereby inhibiting T cell activation. In the tumor microenvironment, tumor cells often highly express the PD1 ligand PDL1 and inhibit the anti-tumor activity of T cells by activating the PD1 signal of T cells. Clinically, blocking the binding of PD1 and PDL1 through PD1 or PDL1 antibodies can generally restore the anti-tumor activity of T cells in the tumor microenvironment, thereby achieving the effect of tumor treatment. There have been no reports of restoring T cell anti-tumor activity or further activating T cells by changing its inhibitory nature through mutation of PD1. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings of the prior art, the object of the present invention is to provide PD1 variants and uses thereof.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives and other related objectives, the present invention provides a PD1 variant in a first aspect, wherein the PD1 variant contains an ITSM motif mutation:

[0005] 1) The ITSM motif of the PD1 variant is an activated ITSM motif; or

[0006] 2) The ITSM motif of the PD1 variant contains partial amino acid residues or fragments of an activated ITSM motif.

[0007] The second aspect of the present invention provides a polynucleotide encoding the aforementioned PD1 variant.

[0008] The third aspect of the present invention provides a nucleic acid construct, which contains the aforementioned polynucleotide and is capable of expressing the PD1 variant.

[0009] A fourth aspect of the present invention provides a lentiviral vector system, comprising the aforementioned nucleic acid construct and lentiviral vector auxiliary components.

[0010] A fifth aspect of the present invention provides a T cell, wherein the T cell expresses the aforementioned PD1 variant.

[0011] The use of the aforementioned PD1 variants or polynucleotides, or nucleic acid constructs, or lentiviral vector systems in the preparation of any one or more of the following products: (1) preparing T cells; (2) reducing the inhibition of T cells by the PD-L1 / PD1 signaling pathway in the tumor microenvironment; (3) enhancing the anti-tumor function of T cells.

[0012] The use of the aforementioned PD1 variants or polynucleotides, or nucleic acid constructs, or lentiviral vector systems, or T cells in the preparation of tumor treatment products or anti-chronic infection products.

[0013] As described above, the PD1 variants and uses thereof of the present invention have the following beneficial effects:

[0014] Wild-type PD1 mediates downstream inhibitory signals, which is not conducive to CAR-T or TCR-T tumor treatment; PD1 knockout only reduces PD1-mediated inhibitory signals. The PD1 variant of the present invention can enhance the anti-tumor function of CAR-T or TCR-T when co-expressed with EAT-2.

[0015] Considering that the Immunoreceptor Tyrosine Switch Motif (ITSM) is the main motif for PD1 to mediate downstream inhibitory signals, tyrosine phosphorylation of ITSM can recruit SHP2, which, as a phosphatase, can dephosphorylate TCR or CD28 downstream signaling molecules, thereby inhibiting the immune function of T cells. The present invention attempts to replace the ITSM motif of PD1 with the ITSM motif of other immune receptors (mainly the SLAM family). It is unexpectedly found that the complete or partial replacement of the ITSM motif of PD1 with an activating ITSM motif can change the immunosuppressive properties of PD1, and even reverse its immunosuppressive properties, turning it into an immune receptor with a certain degree of activation, enabling it to mediate downstream activation signals when EAT2 is expressed, further activating T cells, thereby achieving the purpose of anti-tumor. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0016] Figure 1 :Raji cells incubated with SEE (30ng / ml) stimulated Jurkat cells overexpressing vector control, wild-type PD1, and PD1 variants. 24 hours later, the concentration of IL-2 in the supernatant was detected by ELISA kit. The IL-2 produced by Raji cells expressing PD-L1 was normalized according to the amount of IL-2 produced by Raji cells that did not express PD-L1. The relative amount of IL-2 produced can characterize the inhibitory ability of PD1 and variants. In the figure, vector control is Jurkat cells expressing vector control, and the others are Jurkat cells expressing wild-type PD1 and different PD1 variants.

[0017] Figure 2: Detection of the relative IL-2 production of Jurkart cells expressing PD1-WT, PD1-tailless and PD1-M2 under the action of PD-L1.

[0018] Figure 3 : The relative IL-2 production of Jurkat cells expressing PD1 variants obtained by partial mutation of the ITSM motif of PD1-WT was measured in response to PD-L1. Panel A measures the relative IL-2 production of Jurkat cells in response to PD-L1 after replacing four amino acid residues on the left (PD1-M2_L) or right (PD1-M2_R) sides of the PD1 ITSM with the corresponding amino acid residues from the second ITSM of SLAMF1. Panel B shows the relative IL-2 production of Jurkat cells in response to PD-L1 after further replacing any two amino acid residues at the left non-conserved sites.

[0019] Figure 4 : The relative IL-2 production of Jurkart cells expressing vector control (vectorcontrol), PD1-WT, PD1-M1 and PD1-M2 under the action of PD-L1 was detected in the case of co-expression of vector control (VC) and EAT-2.

[0020] Figure 5 A shows the recruitment of SHP2 by PD1-WT, PD1-M1, and PD1-M2 in Jurkat cells under the influence of PD-L1. B shows the recruitment of SHP2 and EAT-2 by PD1-WT and PD1-M2 in Jurkat cells co-expressing EAT-2 at different time points under the influence of PD-L1. C shows the effects of expression vector control (VC), PD1-WT, and PD1-M2 on the phosphorylation of downstream signaling molecules in Jurkat cells co-expressing EAT-2.

[0096] The regulatory sequence may also be a suitable transcription terminator sequence, a sequence recognized by the host cell to terminate transcription. The terminator sequence is operably linked to the 3' end of the nucleotide sequence encoding the polypeptide. Any terminator that is functional in the selected host cell may be used in the present invention.

[0097] The regulatory sequence may also be a suitable leader sequence, a non-translated region of an mRNA that is important for translation by the host cell. The leader sequence is operably linked to the 5' end of the nucleotide sequence encoding the polypeptide. Any terminator that is functional in the selected host cell may be used in the present invention.

[0098] Preferably, the nucleic acid construct is a vector.

[0099] Expression of a polynucleotide encoding a PD1 variant is typically achieved by operably linking the polynucleotide encoding the PD1 variant to a promoter and incorporating the construct into an expression vector. The vector may be suitable for replication and integration into eukaryotic cells. Typical cloning vectors contain transcriptional and translational terminators, initiation sequences, and promoters that can be used to regulate expression of the desired nucleic acid sequence.

[0100] The polynucleotide sequence encoding the PD1 variant of the present invention can be cloned into many types of vectors. For example, it can be cloned into a plasmid, a phagemid, a phage derivative, an animal virus, and a cosmid. Furthermore, the vector is an expression vector. The expression vector can be provided to the cell in the form of a viral vector. Viral vector technology is well known in the art. Viruses that can be used as vectors include, but are not limited to, retroviruses, adenoviruses, adeno-associated viruses, herpes viruses, and lentiviruses. Generally, a suitable vector contains an origin of replication that functions in at least one organism, a promoter sequence, convenient restriction enzyme sites, and one or more selectable markers.

[0101] More preferably, the nucleic acid construct is a lentiviral vector comprising a replication origin, a 3'LTR, a 5'LTR and the aforementioned polynucleotide.

[0102] An example of a suitable promoter is an early cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter sequence. This promoter sequence is a strong constitutive promoter sequence that can drive any polynucleotide sequence high-level expression that can be operably connected thereto. Another example of a suitable promoter is elongation growth factor-1α (EF-1α). However, other constitutive promoter sequences can also be used, including but not limited to simian virus 40 (SV40) early promoter, mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV), human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) long terminal repeat (LTR) promoter, MoMuLV promoter, avian leukemia virus promoter, Epstein-Barr virus immediate early promoter, Rous sarcoma virus promoter and human gene promoter, such as but not limited to actin promoter, myosin promoter, heme promoter and creatine kinase promoter. Further, it is also possible to consider the use of inducible promoters. The use of inducible promoters provides a molecular switch that can open the expression of the polynucleotide sequence that can be operably connected to an inducible promoter when the deadline is expressed, and close expression when expression is undesirable. Examples of inducible promoters include, but are not limited to, the metallothionein promoter, the glucocorticoid promoter, the progesterone promoter, and the tetracycline promoter.

[0103] To assess expression of a PD1 variant or portion thereof, the expression vector introduced into the cell may also contain either or both a selectable marker gene or a reporter gene to facilitate identification and selection of expressing cells from a population of cells sought to be transfected or infected by a viral vector. In other aspects, the selectable marker may be carried on a separate piece of DNA and used in a co-transfection procedure. Both the selectable marker and the reporter gene may be flanked by appropriate regulatory sequences to enable expression in the host cell. Useful selectable markers include, for example, antibiotic resistance genes such as neo and the like.

[0104] The reporter gene is used to identify the cells of potential transfection and to evaluate the functionality of the regulatory sequence. After DNA has been introduced into the recipient cells, the expression of the reporter gene is measured at the appropriate time. Suitable reporter genes can include genes encoding luciferase, beta-galactosidase, chloramphenicol acetyltransferase, secretory alkaline phosphatase or green fluorescent protein genes. Suitable expression systems are known and can utilize known technology to prepare or commercially obtain.

[0105] Methods for introducing genes into cells and expressing genes in cells are known in the art. Vectors can be easily introduced into host cells, for example, mammalian, bacterial, yeast, or insect cells, by any method known in the art. For example, expression vectors can be transferred into host cells by physical, chemical, or biological means.

[0106] Physical methods for introducing polynucleotides into host cells include calcium phosphate precipitation, lipofection, particle bombardment, microinjection, electroporation, and the like. Biological methods for introducing polynucleotides of interest into host cells include the use of DNA and RNA vectors. Chemical means for introducing polynucleotides into host cells include colloidal dispersion systems such as macromolecular complexes, nanocapsules, microspheres, beads, and lipid-based systems including oil-in-water emulsions, micelles, mixed micelles, and liposomes.

[0107] Biological methods for introducing polynucleotides into host cells include the use of viral vectors, particularly lentiviral vectors, which have become the most widely used method for inserting genes into mammalian cells, such as human cells. Other viral vectors can be derived from lentiviruses, poxviruses, herpes simplex virus I, adenoviruses, and adeno-associated viruses, among others. Many virus-based systems have been developed for transferring genes into mammalian cells. For example, lentiviruses provide a convenient platform for gene delivery systems. The selected gene can be inserted into a vector and packaged into lentiviral particles using techniques known in the art. The recombinant virus can then be isolated and delivered to the subject's cells in vivo or in vitro. Many retroviral systems are known in the art. In some embodiments, adenoviral vectors are used. Many adenoviral vectors are known in the art. In one embodiment, a lentiviral vector is used.

[0108] The aforementioned nucleic acid construct also contains a polynucleotide encoding the EAT-2 protein, and is capable of simultaneously expressing the PD1 variant and the EAT-2 protein.

[0109] The two sequences can be linked by an internal ribosome entry site (IRES) to express two proteins simultaneously in one vector.

[0136] Example 1 Construction of expression vectors for PD1 variants

[0137] Using the second ITSM motif of SLAMF1 (SEQ ID NO: 9) as an example, a PD1 variant was generated by gene synthesis, with its open coding frame sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 36 (PD1-SLAMF1-ITSM2). Compared to the 9-amino acid ITSM motif of wild-type PD1 (centered around tyrosine and extending four amino acid residues before and after, EQTEYATIV; SEQ ID NO: 1), the ITSM motif of this variant is the second ITSM motif of SLAMF1 (SEQ ID NO: 9). The resulting PD1 variant sequence was further inserted into the pHAGE expression vector (pHAGE-fullEF1a-MCS-IRES-ZsGreen) by enzyme digestion (NheI and BamHI sites) and ligation.

[0139] The construction method of other PD1 variants is the same as that of PD1-SLAMF1-ITSM2, with the only difference being that, compared with the 9-amino acid ITSM motif of wild-type PD1 (centered on tyrosine and extending 4 amino acid residues before and after, SEQ ID NO: 1), the ITSM motif of this variant is another activated ITSM motif in Table 1, thereby obtaining the ability to express the various PD1 variants described in SEQ ID NOs: 18-32.

[0140] Example 2 Construction and transformation of PD1 and EAT-2 co-expression vector

[0141] The human EAT-2 open reading frame sequence (SEQ ID NO: 35) was obtained by reverse transcription and PCR amplification. The EAT-2 open reading frame sequence was constructed into the expression vector of the PD1 variant (PD1-SLAMF1-ITSM2) obtained in Example 1. The two sequences were connected by the internal ribosome entry site (IRES) in the pHAGE vector, and the two proteins were expressed simultaneously in one vector.

[0142] Example 3 Verification of the Effect of PD1 Variants on Jurkat Cell Function in the Jurkat T Cell Line

[0143] Wild-type PD1 and the PD1 variants described in SEQ ID NOs: 18-32 were constructed into a pHAGE vector. The PD1 expression plasmid was mixed with the packaging plasmids pSPAX2 and pMD2G at a ratio of 10:7.5:3.5, respectively, and then transformed into 293FT cells using calcium phosphate transfection to produce lentiviral particles. The lentiviral supernatant was used to infect Jurkat cells to generate Jurkat cell lines expressing the modified PD1.

[0144] Jurkat cell lines with similar cell surface PD1 expression levels were obtained by sorting, and Jurkat cell function experiments were performed. 100,000 Jurkat cells expressing PD1 were co-cultured with 50,000 Raji cells expressing PD-L1 or vector control cells that were pre-incubated with superantigen SEE in a round-bottom 96-well plate for 24 hours. The cell supernatant was collected and the concentration of IL-2 in the supernatant was detected using an IL-2 ELISA kit. The IL-2 produced by Raji cells expressing PD-L1 was normalized according to the amount of IL-2 produced by Raji cells that did not express PD-L1. The relative amount of IL-2 produced can characterize the inhibitory ability of PD1 and variants. (The higher the relative amount of IL-2 production, the weaker the inhibitory ability of PD1 and variants.) The results are as follows Figure 1As shown in the figure, after the ITSM motif of wild-type PD1 (WT) was replaced with different ITSM motifs, the inhibitory function of PD-L1 on the secretion of IL-2 by Jurkat cells was weakened to varying degrees, among which the inhibitory function of the PD1 variant transformed into the second ITSM sequence of SLAMF1 (PD1-SLAMF1-ITSM2) was most significantly weakened.

[0145] To further examine the extent of reduced inhibitory function of the PD1 variant engineered as the second ITSM of SLAMF1 (SEQ ID NO: 25, labeled PD1-M2 in the figure), the aforementioned method of this example was used to detect the relative IL-2 production of Jurkart cells expressing PD1-WT, PD1-tailless, and PD1-M2 under the action of PD-L1, using a non-functional intracellular truncated PD1 (PD1-tailless) (SEQ ID NO: 37) as a control; Figure 2 The results showed that the inhibition of IL-2 secretion by PD1-M2 in Jurkat cells was almost the same as that of the non-functional PD1-tailless control.

[0148] Using the method described above in this example, the present invention also located the key amino acid residues in PD1-M2 that affect the inhibitory function. Taking tyrosine as the zero point, the four amino acid residues on the left or right of the PD1 ITSM were detected to be replaced with the corresponding amino acid residues in the second ITSM of SLAMF1 to obtain PD1-M2_L (SEQ ID NO: 33) and PD1-M2_R (i.e., the wild-type PD1 was mutated as follows: T250S, I251V, V252T). The relative IL-2 production of Jurkat cells under the action of PD-L1 was then detected. The results are as follows: Figure 3 As shown in A, PD1-M2_L significantly reduces the inhibitory function.

[0149] Using the method described above in this example, the present invention also mutated the sites in the ITSM motif of wild-type PD1, taking tyrosine as the 0 point, and replaced any two amino acid residues in the non-conserved sites on the left side of the ITSM motif of wild-type PD1 with the corresponding amino acid residues in the second ITSM of SLAMF1, respectively obtaining PD1-E244S / Q245I, PD1-E244S / E247V, and PD1-Q245I / E247V, and then detecting the relative IL-2 production of Jurkat cells under the action of PD-L1. The results are shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown in Figure 2, the -3 and -1 positions (with tyrosine as the 0 position) in the ITSM motif of wild-type PD1 were replaced with the corresponding amino acid residues in the second ITSM of SLAMF1. The resulting PD1 variant PD1-Q245I / E247V significantly reduced the inhibitory function.

[0150] Example 4: Verification of the Effect of Co-expression of Modified PD1 and EAT-2 on Jurkat Cell Function in the Jurkat T Cell Line

[0151] Lentiviral particles were produced by mixing EAT-2 and PD1 expression plasmids with packaging plasmids pSPAX2 and pMD2G at a ratio of 10:7.5:3.5, respectively, and then transfected into 293FT cells using calcium phosphate transfection. Lentiviral supernatant was used to infect Jurkat cells to generate Jurkat cell lines co-expressing EAT-2 and PD1 variants.

[0152] Jurkat cell lines with similar cell surface PD1 expression levels were obtained by sorting, and Jurkat cell function experiments were performed. 100,000 Jurkat cells were co-cultured with 50,000 Raji cells expressing PD-L1 or vector control cells that had been pre-incubated with superantigen SEE in a round-bottom 96-well plate for 24 hours. The cell supernatant was collected and the IL-2 concentration in the supernatant was detected using an IL-2 ELISA kit. The results are shown in the figure. Figure 4 As shown, replacing the wild-type PD1 ITSM motif with the first ITSM (PD1-M1 in the figure, i.e., SEQ ID NO: 24) or the second ITSM sequence (PD1-M2 in the figure, i.e., SEQ ID NO: 25) of SLAMF1 can weaken the inhibition of PD1 on IL-2 secretion of Jurkat cells, while adding EAT-2 expression can convert the inhibition of PD1 variants on IL-2 secretion of Jurkat cells into enhancement.

[0153] In order to study the mechanism of the reduced inhibitory function of PD1-M2 and the mediation of positive signals under the co-expression of EAT-2, the present invention uses immunoprecipitation and immunoblotting to detect the recruitment function of SHP2 and EAT-2 of PD1-M2 and the downstream signaling pathway. 10 million Jurkat cells and 10 million Raji cells expressing PD-L1 that were pre-incubated with superantigen SEE were mixed in an EP tube, centrifuged to allow the two cells to fully contact, and then stimulated at different time points in a 37-degree Celsius water bath. After lysing the cells, immunoprecipitation and immunoblotting experiments were performed. The results are as follows. Figure 5 As shown in A, the ability of PD1-M2 to recruit SHP2 was significantly reduced compared to PD1-WT in the absence of EAT-2 co-expression. In the case of co-expression of EAT-2, PD1-M2 recruited EAT-2 while PD1-WT recruited SHP2 ( Figure 5 B). Further detection of downstream signaling molecules revealed that under the co-expression of EAT-2, PD1-WT significantly reduced the phosphorylation of PLCγ1, while PD1-M2 significantly enhanced the phosphorylation of PLCγ1 ( Figure 5 C).
