Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of antibody preparation, and particularly relates to a human CHI3L1 monoclonal antibody 1D7, a recombinant vector, a recombinant plasmid, a method and application. BACKGROUND

[0002] Chitinase-3-like protein 1 (CHI3L1) is one of the members of the chitinase glycoside hydrolase 18 family. CHI3L1 is a secreted glycoprotein with a size of about 40 kDa, which is expressed and secreted in various cells such as macrophages, chondrocytes, fibroblast-like synoviocytes, vascular smooth muscle cells and hepatic stellate cells. CHI3L1 has two isoforms: one is a full-length isoform containing all 10 exons, and the other is a short variant with exon 8 selectively spliced and deleted. There are eight members of the chitinase glycoside hydrolase 18 family in the human body, and CHI3L1 is one of the glycoprotein members of the human glycosyl hydrolase 18 family, which has chitin binding activity but lacks chitinase activity. The protein is composed of one (β / α) 8 barrel domain and one second domain composed of six anti-parallel β chains, with one α helix (α+β) domain inserted after chain β7, and the C-terminal of the β chain in the (β / α) 8 barrel structure has a carbohydrate binding site containing 43 residues, and the side edge stacking can control the protein-carbohydrate interaction. This structure determines that CHI3L1 can activate the innate defense as a sensor and at the same time regulate the inflammatory response caused by infection, and may also contribute to the occurrence of tumors. Current studies have shown that the expression of the protein is closely related to the occurrence and development of inflammatory diseases, extracellular tissue remodeling, fibrosis, solid cancer and asthma-related diseases.

[0003] CHI3L1 plays an important role in the development of nervous system diseases. The expression of CHI3L1 is controlled by NFI-X3, STAT3 and AP-1, and can promote the migration of primary astrocytes. Its absence can change the inflammatory response of glial cells, promote the phagocytosis of amyloid plaques by astrocytes and microglia, reduce the formation of amyloid plaques, and affect the disease progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD); CHI3L1 can regulate the neuroinflammatory response related to traumatic brain injury (TBI), and its absence leads to more severe neuropathological phenomena and more significant glial pathogenesis; in addition, the high expression of CHI3L1 can significantly increase the content of aortic atherosclerotic plaques, increase the neovascularization of carotid artery plaques, and significantly reduce the collagen content in carotid artery plaques. In early human carotid artery plaques and mouse model plaques, CHI3L1 expression promotes a significant increase in lesion area, while significantly inhibiting macrophage apoptosis. CHI3L1 shows great potential for medical applications, and with further research, CHI3L1 may become a diagnostic marker and new target for the treatment of central nervous system-related diseases. CHI3L1 detection antibodies can be used for CHI3L1 antigen detection and other scientific research, but most of the current CHI3L1 detection antibodies come from hybridoma cells, and traditional hybridoma cells are not easy to store, and will be in poor condition after a long period of use, and are difficult to recover.

The results showed that, except for the pcDNA3.1 group, the cells incubated with his antibody showed positive results, indicating that the corresponding protein was successfully overexpressed by plasmid transfection; in addition, positive signals were detected only in cells overexpressing CHI3L1 gene back section CHI3L1-293-383-6his and complete CHI3L1 sequence, indicating that the antibody recognition site is located in the 293-383 interval of the amino acid sequence. To further determine the recognition site, the fragment was further divided for study.

[0118] CHI3L1-293-310 (SEQ ID NO. 23), CHI3L1-311-328 (SEQ ID NO. 24), CHI3L1-329-346 (SEQ ID NO. 25), CHI3L1-347-364 (SEQ ID NO. 26), CHI3L1-365-383 (SEQ ID NO. 27), and the plasmids containing each fragment and the plasmid containing the complete CHI3L1-6his sequence were constructed on the eukaryotic expression vector pcDNA3.1, and the plasmids were prepared for use; the 293T cells were uniformly seeded in the dishes after being treated with polylysine, and the dishes were incubated overnight in a 37°C, 5% CO2 cell incubator; the empty plasmid pcDNA3.1, Q CHI3L1-293-310-6his plasmid, Q CHI3L1-311-328-6his plasmid, Q CHI3L1-329-346-6his plasmid, Q CHI3L1-347-364-6his plasmid, Q CHI3L1-365-383-6his plasmid, the plasmid containing the CHI3L1-293-383-6his fragment, and the plasmid containing the complete CHI3L1-6his sequence were transfected into the prepared 293T cells; the above steps were repeated, and the results were observed under a microscope.

[0119] The experimental results are shown in (a) of FIG. 6. The recombinant 1D7 monoclonal antibody was successfully expressed in the 293T cells and was successfully secreted in the cell supernatant. The recombinant monoclonal antibody can recognize CHI3L1 and has biological activity. The antibody recognition site is located in the 293-383 interval of the CHI3L1 amino acid sequence. Figure 5 The experimental results are shown in (b) of FIG. 6. The control group transfected with the empty pcDNA3.1 plasmid had no fluorescence signal, and the group incubated with the anti-his antibody had a signal, indicating that the plasmid transfection and overexpression operation was successful. In the groups with the deletion of the fragments, except for the group with the deletion of the 329-346 amino acid interval, the other groups could be recognized by the CHI3L1 antibody and produced a fluorescence signal, indicating that the deletion of the 329-346 fragment directly affected the recognition process of the antibody, and further proving that the antibody recognition site is located in the 329-346 amino acid fragment. Figure 5 2. WB verification of the characteristics of the recombinant monoclonal antibody

[0120]

[0121] ​The purified CHI3L1 protein, CHI3L1 cell protein overexpressed and cell control protein transfected with empty pcDNA3.1 plasmid were used as Western Blot loading samples for SDS-PAGE electrophoresis to verify the properties of the recombinant monoclonal antibody; after electrophoresis, wet transfer was used, the transfer conditions were 200 mA, 60 min; 5% skim milk was blocked at room temperature for 1 h; the recombinant monoclonal cell supernatant was used as the primary antibody, and commercially available CHI3L1 antibody (Affinity Biosciences Cat#DF7223, RRID:AB_2839164) was used as the control group primary antibody, and incubated at room temperature for 2 h; washed with TBST for 3 times, 5 min each time; HRP-labeled secondary antibody was added and incubated at room temperature for 1 h; washed with TBS T for 3 times, 5 min each time; chemiluminescence solution was added for color development and photography, and the results were observed.

[0122] The experimental results are shown in Table 1. Figure 6 As shown in Table 1, the CHI3L1 antibody can detect the purified CHI3L1 protein; the recombinant monoclonal antibody 1D7 can achieve the same experimental results; the cell protein overexpressing CHI3L1 may not be detected due to low concentration. In summary, the recombinant monoclonal antibody 1D7 can recognize the linear structure of CHI3L1 protein and has good performance and can be used as Western Blot experiment.
