Abstract
Description
Technical field:
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of tumor immunotherapy and specifically provides a bispecific chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) and a preparation method thereof. Background technology:
[0002] Malignant tumors are the leading threat to human health. Their diagnosis and treatment remain a hot topic and a challenge both domestically and internationally. Despite the continuous development and improvement of surgical procedures, radiotherapy techniques, and new chemotherapeutic agents, achieving a long-term prognosis for various malignancies remains elusive, making the search for new anti-tumor approaches both urgent and significant. Among known malignancies, multiple myeloma (MM) is a clonal proliferation of bone marrow plasma cells. MM accounts for 10% of all hematologic malignancies and is the second most common hematologic malignancy after malignant lymphoma. Myeloma patients present with monoclonal immunoglobulins or their fragments in their blood and urine, leading to impaired function in target organs such as bone marrow hematopoiesis, kidneys, and bones. Clinical manifestations include anemia, bone pain and osteolytic lesions, renal insufficiency, and recurrent infections. Currently, myeloma treatment primarily relies on chemotherapy and stem cell transplantation. However, chemotherapy has significant side effects, severely impacting patients' quality of life. Furthermore, the selection of cell donors, patient age, and post-transplant complications such as graft-versus-host disease and relapse remain significant challenges in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Therefore, new treatments are urgently needed to improve the prognosis of myeloma patients.
[0003] Among the research on novel cancer treatments, tumor immunotherapy is gaining increasing attention. Research on anti-tumor immunity and the tumor microenvironment has provided a new foundation for tumor immunotherapy, which includes adoptive immunotherapy and targeted drug therapy. In 1988, American researchers Rosenberg et al. first proposed the concept of adoptive immunotherapy. This involves culturing and activating a patient's own immune cells, such as T lymphocytes and natural killer (NK) cells, in vitro. These cells are then infused back into the patient using growth factors, enabling these immune effector cells to kill tumor cells, thereby achieving the goal of treating the tumor. Although this therapy has achieved promising results in some tumors, including melanoma, it has been less effective against most malignancies, primarily due to the restriction of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) that significantly reduces the ability of T lymphocytes to directly recognize and kill tumors. Against this backdrop, chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-modified T lymphocytes, characterized by their high specificity, persistence, and cytotoxic activity, have come into the spotlight. The basic structure of a CAR consists of a tumor-associated antigen (TAA) binding region (usually derived from the scFv segment of the monoclonal antibody antigen-binding region), an extracellular hinge region, a transmembrane region, and an intracellular immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM). This structure can break through the constraints of the MHC and can specifically target tumor cells through the extracellularly expressed antigen-binding domain to launch an attack, thereby exerting efficient and long-lasting anti-tumor activity.
[0004] CAR-T cells have gone through four generations of structure. The first-generation CAR had a simple structure and no costimulatory signaling domain, which resulted in the inability of T cells to be fully activated, manifested as an inability to expand in vivo to a level that meets clinical needs, and unsatisfactory therapeutic effects; the second-generation CAR added a costimulatory domain (CD28 or 4-1BB), which significantly increased the duration of action of CAR-T cells; the third-generation CAR added two costimulatory domains at the same time, making CAR-T cells more active in vivo, but some studies have suggested that third-generation CAR may cause the threshold value of T cells to respond to stimulation to be lowered, inducing more severe cytokine release syndrome; the fourth-generation CAR-T cells, also known as TRUCK (T-cells redirected for universal cytokine killing)-T cells, contain an activated T cell nuclear factor transcriptional corresponding element, which enables CAR-T cells to secrete specific cytokines within the tumor infiltration range to modify the tumor microenvironment and promote other immune cells to participate in the immune response. In current clinical trials, CD19 CAR-T cells can achieve a CR rate of over 80% in the treatment of B-ALL patients, a response rate of 52%-83% in B-cell lymphoma, and a certain response rate in the treatment of CLL.
[0005] However, while CAR-T cell therapy brings satisfactory remission rates, the related adverse reactions it produces have also attracted attention in current clinical treatment. The toxic and side effects of CAR-T cell therapy mainly include: 1) Insertional mutation: CAR-T cell therapy technology inserts an exogenous DNA fragment into T cells, which has a certain risk of causing a second tumor; 2) Off-target effect: That is, while CAR-T cells recognize tumor-specific antigens and kill tumor cells, they may also affect normal tissues that express the same antigen in trace amounts, which is called off-target effect; 3) Inflammatory response: CAR-T cells are activated under antigen stimulation and secrete a large amount of inflammatory factors, forming inflammatory reactions such as cytokine release syndrome and tumor lysis syndrome; 4) Neurotoxicity; 5) B cell hypoplasia: This is the expected result of CD19 CAR-T cell therapy. While killing tumor cells, it also kills normal CD19-expressing B cells, thereby leading to B cell dysfunction or even B cell exhaustion. Among these adverse reactions, cytokine release syndrome (CRS) is the most common, with reported overall and severe CRS rates of 58%-97% and 15%-39%, respectively. Its mechanism of action is that CAR-T cells bind to antigens, triggering widespread immune activation and the release of large amounts of cytokines, leading to a systemic inflammatory response, also known as a cytokine storm. Clinically, the initial symptom of CRS is usually fever, with other reactions including flu-like symptoms, fatigue, headache, and myalgia. It can also affect various organ systems, causing nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, rash, hypoxia, pulmonary edema, hypotension, previously unseen arrhythmias, heart failure, liver failure, and abnormal coagulation parameters. Severe cases can even lead to life-threatening shock, capillary leak, hypoxia requiring mechanical ventilation, malignant arrhythmias, and end-organ dysfunction.
[0006] It can be seen that in the current research field of chimeric antigen receptors, on the one hand, it is necessary to develop new structures and select appropriate targets to improve the targeting and effectiveness of anti-tumor drugs; on the other hand, it is necessary to adopt appropriate measures to control and manage the occurrence of serious adverse reactions and ensure the safety of treatment.
[0007] BCMA (B cell maturation antigen), also known as CD269, is a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNF-receptor) superfamily. It is located on the short arm of human chromosome 16 (16p13.13) and consists of three exons and two introns. BCMA is a 184-amino acid, 20.2-kDa type III transmembrane glycoprotein with a terminal motif containing six conserved cysteine residues. BCMA is undetectable in immature B cells and is rarely expressed in hematopoietic stem cells and the normal blood system. However, BCMA expression has been identified in nearly all multiple myeloma (MM) cells, making it an important biomarker for disease activity and prognosis in MM. At present, a variety of antibody drugs and chimeric antigen receptor immune cells have been developed targeting the BCMA target in domestic and foreign research. In order to improve the selectivity of tumor treatment, researchers have begun to focus on the study of bispecific antibodies or chimeric antigen receptors targeting BCMA. For example, WO2019067677A1 discloses a bispecific chimeric antigen receptor targeting CD307E and BCMA, CN109485734A discloses a bispecific chimeric antigen receptor targeting BCMA and CD19, and HK40050871A discloses a bispecific antibody targeting BCMA and CD3.
[0008] While the aforementioned products and therapies have achieved certain therapeutic effects, their targeting and effectiveness still need to be enhanced. Screening for chimeric antigen receptors targeting BCMA, and identifying which other known and / or unknown anti-tumor antigen recognition molecules the antigen-binding domain can combine with to form a strong and effective bispecific anti-tumor structure, thereby providing a safe and effective means of treating tumors, have become research hotspots and priorities in the field of tumor immunotherapy. Furthermore, with the revelation of the phenomenon of tumor immune escape, how to prevent it and how to shut down the immune checkpoint inhibitor pathway in chimeric antigen receptor immune cells are also receiving increasing attention within the industry. Summary of the invention:
[0009] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides a bispecific chimeric antigen receptor, which comprises the following structure: S-BCMA scFv-CD7 scFv-H-TM-C-CD3ζ, wherein "-" is a connecting peptide or peptide bond; S is a signal peptide; H is a hinge region; TM is a transmembrane domain; C is a co-stimulatory signal molecule; CD3ζ is an intracellular signal transduction sequence; BCMA scFv comprises the heavy chain CDR regions shown in SEQ ID NOs: 1-3 and the light chain CDR regions shown in SEQ ID NOs: 4-6; CD7 scFv comprises the heavy chain CDR regions shown in SEQ ID NOs: 7-9 and the light chain CDR regions shown in SEQ ID NOs: 10-12.
[0010] The prior art has reported a variety of potential anti-tumor targets that can form bispecific antibodies or chimeric antigen receptors with BCMA, including but not limited to CD19, CD20, CD3, PD-1 / PD-L1, etc. However, there is still no consensus on which anti-tumor target BCMA is more effective in combination with and has more advantages in preparing chimeric antigen receptor immune cells, and it is difficult to draw a clear conclusion. Therefore, in the present invention, a BCMA-targeted antigen binding domain with a novel structure was screened and obtained, which was combined with antigen-binding molecules targeting different anti-tumor targets to form a bispecific chimeric antigen receptor structure. The inhibitory effect on multiple myeloma was verified respectively, and it was found that the bispecific chimeric antigen receptor targeting BCMA and CD7 had the highest anti-tumor activity, thereby providing a new research approach and ideas for the development of anti-tumor drugs based on BCMA antigens.
[0011] Furthermore, the BCMA scFv comprises a heavy chain variable region as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 13 and a light chain variable region as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 14; the heavy chain variable region or light chain variable region in the scFv sequence may also be a molecule that maintains a high degree of identity with the above amino acid sequence and has the same function, wherein the identity comprises 80-99%, preferably 85%, 90%, 95%, 98%, or 99%.
[0012] Furthermore, the CD7 scFv includes a heavy chain variable region as shown in SEQ ID NO: 15 and a light chain variable region as shown in SEQ ID NO: 16; the heavy chain variable region or light chain variable region in the scFv sequence may also be a molecule that maintains a high degree of identity with the above amino acid sequence and has the same function, and the identity includes 80-99%, preferably 85%, 90%, 95%, 98%, or 99%.
[0013] Furthermore, the co-stimulatory signal molecule is selected from one or more of CD27, CD28, 4-1BB, CD11c, ITGB1, OX40, CD30, CD40, ICOS, CD11b, and ITGAX, preferably CD28 and / or 4-1BB, and more preferably CD28.
[0014] Furthermore, the amino acid sequence of the chimeric antigen receptor is as shown in SEQ ID NO: 17; the chimeric antigen receptor amino acid sequence may also be a molecule that maintains a high degree of identity with the above amino acid sequence and has the same function, and the identity includes 80-99%, preferably 85%, 90%, 95%, 98%, or 99%.
[0015] Provided is a nucleic acid molecule encoding the above-mentioned bispecific chimeric antigen receptor.
[0016] Furthermore, the nucleotide sequence of the nucleic acid molecule is as shown in SEQ ID NO: 18; it can also be a molecule that maintains a high degree of identity with SEQ ID NO: 18 and has the same function, and the identity includes 80-99%, preferably 85%, 90%, 95%, 98%, or 99%.
[0017] Provided is a T cell, wherein the T cell expresses the above-mentioned bispecific chimeric antigen receptor.
[0018] Furthermore, the T cells are T cells with PD-1 gene knocked out.
[0019] Programmed death receptor 1 (PD-1) is an important immunosuppressive molecule belonging to the immunoglobulin superfamily and a membrane protein with 288 amino acid residues. Its ligand is PD-L1. PD-1 and PD-L1 bind to initiate programmed cell death in T cells, allowing tumor cells to gain immune escape function. This is also an important molecular mechanism for tumors to resist the killing effects of immune cells such as T cells and NK cells. In order to combat the phenomenon of tumor immune escape, PD-1 / PD-L1 antibodies have been developed, such as Opdivo (nivolumab) and Keytruda (pembrolizumab). In CAR-T cell research, some researchers have proposed that knocking out or interfering with PD-1 / PD-L1 gene expression in T cells can improve anti-tumor activity. Based on this teaching, the present invention compares the anti-tumor activity of CAR-T cells before and after PD-1 gene knockout, demonstrating that knocking out the PD-1 gene in dual-characteristic CAR-T cells targeting BCMA and CD7 can further improve anti-tumor activity and enhance tumor killing effects.
[0020] Provided is a use of a bispecific chimeric antigen receptor or corresponding CAR-T cell in the preparation of a tumor drug. The tumors include, but are not limited to, lymphoma, leukemia, multiple myeloma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, chronic myeloid leukemia, acute lymphocytic leukemia, acute myeloid leukemia, and Hodgkin's lymphoma; multiple myeloma is preferred.

[0031] The experimental methods described in the following examples are conventional methods unless otherwise specified; the reagents, biological materials, and detection kits are all commercially available unless otherwise specified.
[0032] Example 1: Chimeric Antigen Receptor Design
[0033] In this example, a bispecific antibody containing an anti-BCMA target was constructed, and the sequence diagram is shown in FIG. Figure 1 As shown in the figure, its structure is S-BCMA scFv-CDx scFv-H-TM-C-CD3ζ, wherein BCMA scFv is the antigen binding domain targeting BCMA; CDxscFv is the antigen binding domain targeting CDx, specifically including CD3scFv, CD5 scFv, CD7 scFv, CD19 scFv, and CD20scFv; "-" is a connecting peptide or peptide bond; S is a signal peptide; H is a hinge region; TM is a transmembrane domain; C is a co-stimulatory signal molecule; and CD3ζ is an intracellular signal transduction sequence.
[0034] The antigen-binding domain sequences for each target were obtained by the inventors in previous studies.

The amino acid sequence of the BCMA-CD7 chimeric antigen receptor is set forth in SEQ ID NO: 17, and its nucleotide sequence is set forth in SEQ ID NO: 18.
[0035] Example 2: T cell preparation
[0036] In this example, density gradient centrifugation was used to obtain peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from patients. The specific steps included:
[0037] Use a blood collection tube containing anticoagulant to draw 20 mL of human peripheral blood into a centrifuge tube and centrifuge at 2000 rpm for 10 minutes; collect the upper plasma, add an equal volume of pre-warmed physiological saline to the remaining blood cell pellet, resuspend it, and mix thoroughly; take another centrifuge tube, gently add the mixed blood cell pellet to the surface of the lymphocyte separation solution at a volume of 1:1, and centrifuge at 18000 rpm for 25 minutes; carefully aspirate the white lymphocyte layer; transfer the buffy coat layer to a new centrifuge tube, add PBS to 45 mL, centrifuge at 1500 rpm for 5 minutes, and wash twice; add an appropriate amount of RPMI1640 (containing 10% FBS) complete culture medium to resuspend the cells and count them.
[0038] T cells were enriched using CD4 magnetic beads and CD8 magnetic beads, and the obtained T cells were placed in fresh culture medium, and 100 U / mL human IL-7 and 200 U / mL human IL-15 were added. The purified T cells were cultured in culture medium at 37°C and 5% CO2.
[0039] Example 3: T cell PD-1 gene knockout
[0040] Based on the sequence structure of the human PD-1 gene and referring to the existing research content of related CRISPR gene editing tools, the nucleotide sequence shown in SEQ ID NO.19 was selected as the sgRNA of the PD-1 gene. The PD-1 sgRNA nucleic acid sequence was commissioned to Sangon Biotech (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. for synthesis and inserted into a standard vector and ligated to the CRISPR / CAS9 expression vector pX330A to obtain the pX330A-TIGIT vector and the pX330A-PD-1 vector.
[0041] The pX330A-PD-1 vector was electroporated into T cells. The specific steps included: taking 1×10 7 T cells were added, 500 μL of electroporation buffer was added to resuspend the cells, and the cells were pipetted up and down evenly; pX330A-PD-1 vector plasmid (10 ug) was added to the cell suspension, and the cells were pipetted up and down evenly, and the cells were transferred to a sterile and clean electroporation cup, and the parameters were set to 300 V, 10 ms, and two electric shock operations were performed; after the electric shock was completed, the electroporation cup was placed on ice and incubated for 10 minutes to allow the nucleic acid to fully enter the cells; the electroporation cup was removed from the ice, the cells were transferred out of the electroporation cup, filtered and counted, and inoculated into fresh DMEM culture medium according to a certain cell density, and cultured in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator.
[0042] On the 2nd to 3rd day after electroporation, the expression of PD-1 in T cells was detected by flow cytometry. The PD-1 gene knockout efficiency = (expression level in the control group - expression level in the experimental group) / expression level in the control group × 100%. The results showed that the PD-1 knockout efficiency of T cells reached 97.2%.
[0043] Example 4: CAR-T cell preparation
[0044] The chimeric antigen receptor gene fragment provided by the present invention was introduced into the psb1576 vector, which was then introduced into competent cells. The plasmid was extracted using a plasmid extraction kit (purchased from Axygen), and sequencing was performed to verify the correctness of the target gene sequence. Positive clone plasmids were delivered to Bosheng Jianke Cell Technology Co., Ltd. for synthesis of lentiviral vectors.
[0045] The T cells prepared in Example 2 and the gene knockout T cells prepared in Example 3 were activated separately, added to fresh culture medium, and cultured at 37°C, 5% CO2 for 10 days. The cells were collected by centrifugation. The cells were resuspended in fresh culture medium and the cell density was adjusted to 1×10 6 cells / mL, various lentiviruses were added to 24-well culture plates at an MOI of 10, mixed well, and cultured in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator. Fresh culture medium was replaced after 48-96 hours of culture. The transduction efficiency of CAR-T cells was determined by PCR, and the positive rate was over 95%, which met the experimental requirements.
[0046] Example 5: Killing effect of CAR-T cells on tumor cells
[0047] To verify the tumor killing effect of CAR-T cells, the present invention selected the human multiple myeloma cell line RPMI8226 (purchased from ATCC, USA) as the research object.
[0048] 5.1 Tumor cell culture
[0049] Remove the cells from liquid nitrogen and resuscitate RPMI 8226 cells at a volume of 1 × 10 6 Cells were inoculated into RPMI 1640 complete medium (containing 10% FBS) at 100 μg / mL and cultured aseptically in a 37°C, 5% CO2 cell incubator. Cells were counted and passaged every 36-72 hours, and the cell status was observed. Subsequent experiments were performed when the cell viability reached above 80%.
[0050] 5.2 CAR-T cell co-culture
[0051] CAR-T cells and the above tumor cells were harvested separately, washed three times with sterile PBS, and then mixed with tumor cells at a ratio of 1:1 to adjust the cell density to 1×10 6 The cells were plated in a 96-well plate and incubated at 37°C in a 5% CO2 incubator for 24 hours. Sterile PBS solution was used as a negative control.
[0052] 5.3 MTT assay to detect the tumor killing efficiency of different CAR-T cells
[0053] After 48 hours of co-culture of CAR-T cells and tumor cells, the supernatant was centrifuged and 20 μL of MTT was added to each well for 4 hours. The MTT was then discarded and 150 μL of DMSO was added to each well. The cells were shaken for 10 minutes. A blank control well was also set. The blank control well was zeroed and the absorbance (OD) at 490 nm was measured using a microplate reader. Relative cell viability (cell viability) was calculated as follows: cell viability (%) = (OD value of experimental group - OD value of blank group) / (OD value of control group - OD value of blank group) × 100%.
[0054] The results are as follows Figure 2 As shown, the bispecific CAR-T cells provided in the present invention can effectively kill myeloma cells, but surprisingly, compared with the more reported combinations of BCMA targets with CD3, CD19, and CD20, the BCMA-targeted antigen binding domain provided in the present invention appears to be more effective in killing myeloma cells in combination with CD7. In incubation with bispecific CAR-T cells targeting BCMA and CD7, the survival rate of RPMI 8226 cells was the lowest. The combination of BCMA with CD3 or CD5 also showed an anti-tumor effect that was significantly higher than the combination of CD19 or CD20, indicating that the combination of BCMA and CD7 targets can exert a more synergistic anti-tumor effect.
[0055] 5.4 MTT assay to detect the tumor killing efficiency of PD-1 gene knockout CAR-T cells
[0056] In order to further improve the anti-tumor effect and inhibit tumor immune escape, in this example, the target BCMA and CD7 chimeric antigen receptors were constructed into PD-1 gene knockout T cells to obtain ΔPD-1-BCMA-CD7 CAR-T cells (the construction method is the same as in Example 4). ΔPD-1BCMA-CD7 CAR-T cells and BCMA-CD7 CAR-T cells were co-cultured with the human multiple myeloma cell line RPMI 8226, and the cell viability was detected by MTT assay (the method is the same as in Sections 5.1-5.3).
[0057] The results are as follows Figure 3 As shown in the results, after knocking out the PD-1 gene, the anti-tumor activity of CAR-T cells was further enhanced, indicating that the tumor immune escape mechanism was effectively curbed, providing a new practical basis for the development of long-lasting and highly effective anti-tumor methods.
[0058] Example 6 Inhibitory Effects of CAR-T Cells on Tumors in Vivo
[0059] 6.1 Animal Model Preparation and Drug Administration
[0060] Resuscitate and culture RPMI 8226 cells using the same method as in Section 5.1. Take healthy BALB / c nude mice of similar weight, which are 6-8 weeks old, and dilute the multiple myeloma RPMI 8226 to 1×10 6 300 μL of the above cell solution was injected into the armpit of nude mice until the tumor volume increased to 100 mm 3 The experimental animals were randomly divided into three groups and injected with 1×10 6 △PD-1BCMA-CD7 CAR-T cells and BCMA-CD7 CAR-T cells were used, and an equal volume of normal saline was used as the control group.
[0061] 6.2 Tumor Volume Detection
[0062] The first administration time was recorded as week 0, and the tumor volume was detected every week. The specific method was as follows: using a vernier caliper to measure the long diameter (L) and short diameter (W) of the tumor, according to the formula V = (W 2 × L) / 2 to calculate the tumor volume, and the test was conducted for 3 weeks.
[0063] like Figure 4 As shown, the CAR-T cells provided in the present invention can significantly inhibit the increase in myeloma tumor volume and inhibit the growth process of the tumor. Compared with the normal saline control group, the tumor volume was reduced by about half after 3 weeks of treatment with CAR-T cells. The tumor inhibition effect of CAR-T cells with PD-1 gene knockout was more obvious, and the degree of tumor inhibition seemed to be higher than that of cell-level experiments, indicating that this gene-modified CAR-T cell can activate the body's immune system in in vivo experiments and exert a long-lasting and efficient tumor inhibition effect.
[0064] 6.4 Detection of IL-12, TNFα, and TGF-β levels in blood
[0065] Three weeks after administration, blood was collected from the nude mice's orbital vein and centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 15 minutes. The upper serum layer was removed and placed in a centrifuge tube and stored at -80°C until use. ELISA kits (purchased from Wuhan Boster Biotechnology Co., Ltd.) were used to measure the levels of IL-12, TNF-α, and TGF-β in the nude mouse serum.
[0066] Interleukin-12 (IL-12) is a cytokine with a wide range of biological activities. It is mainly produced by activated inflammatory cells and can exert anti-tumor effects by regulating innate immunity, acquired immunity and inhibiting tumor angiogenesis. The main ways in which IL-12 participates in the anti-tumor process include: (1) IL-12 can enhance the tumor killing effect of cytotoxic lymphocytes such as CD8+T cells and natural killer cells (NK); (2) IL-12 stimulates immune cells to produce IFN-γ and other secondary and tertiary pro-inflammatory cytokines, which can have direct toxicity to tumor cells and / or can inhibit tumor growth by inhibiting tumor angiogenesis; (3) IL-12 can enhance the body's tumor antigen-specific immunity by inducing or increasing the response capacity of Th1 cells and cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL); (4) IL-12 can also increase the production of opsonized and complement-binding IgG antibodies by stimulating Th1 reactions, thereby enhancing anti-tumor activity. In this embodiment, Figure 5 As shown in the results, after treatment with CAR-T cells, the IL-12 level in nude mice was significantly increased, especially in the △PD-1BCMA-CD7 CAR-T treatment group, the IL-12 level increased by nearly 3 times, indicating that this type of CAR-T cell can activate the anti-tumor mechanism in the body by mobilizing the IL-12 secretion pathway and inhibit tumor growth.
[0067] Tumor Necrosis Factor α (TNFα) is an inflammatory cytokine that can coordinate the production of other cytokines, cell survival and death to coordinate tissue homeostasis. In the body, TNFα is released by activated macrophages and other types of cells such as CD4+ T cells, neutrophils, mast cells, etc., and can induce inflammatory responses and cell apoptosis. Studies have shown that TNFα is associated with the occurrence and development of various tumors such as lung cancer, gastric cancer, colorectal cancer, breast cancer, leukemia, etc., and that in vivo injection of TNFα can inhibit tumor growth to a certain extent. In this embodiment, it was found through testing (such as Figure 6 As shown in the figure, after CAR-T cell treatment, the expression level of TNFα in the serum of nude mice increased. This trend was particularly obvious in the ΔPD-1BCMA-CD7 CAR-T treatment group, indicating that the CAR-T cells provided by the present invention can effectively regulate the secretion ability of TNFα.
[0068] Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) is a cytokine isolated from the serum-free culture medium of embryonic fibroblast cell lines transformed by mouse sarcoma virus. It has stimulatory or inhibitory effects on a variety of cells, and can induce the transformation of normal rat renal fibroblasts into tumor cells, so it is named transforming growth factor. The TGF-β / Smad signaling pathway is closely related to the occurrence, development, and metastasis of tumors, but its mechanism of action is also quite complex, and even exhibits different functions at different stages. For example, studies have shown that TGF-β has dual manifestations in the occurrence of tumors. In the early stage, TGF-β acts as an inhibitory factor, which prevents cells from dividing from the early / middle G1 phase to the S phase by inducing the expression of two genes encoding cell cycle-dependent kinase inhibitors p15 and p21, thereby inhibiting the growth and proliferation of tumor cells; when the tumor progresses to the middle and late stages, TGF-β becomes a tumor-promoting factor. In this example, the expression level of TGF-β in nude mouse serum was detected, and the results are as follows: Figure 7 As shown in the figures, there was no significant difference in TGF-β expression between the control group and the treatment group, indicating that the CAR-T cells provided in the present invention did not effectively participate in the regulation of TGF-β expression.
[0069] In summary, the present invention provides a novel chimeric antigen receptor targeting BCMA and CD7. After being introduced into T cells to construct CAR-T cells, it can effectively kill multiple myeloma cells. This killing effect is even more effective after knocking out the PD-1 gene. In in vivo experiments, it can significantly inhibit tumor growth and activate other immune regulatory mechanisms in the body by regulating the expression levels of IL-12 and TNFα, exerting a synergistic anti-tumor effect, providing new ideas for the development of related anti-tumor drugs or therapies.
