Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the biological field, and more particularly to a composition for inhibiting cell proliferation. Background Art
[0002] Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) accounts for over 85% of malignant renal tumors, ranking second among urinary tract tumors. 90% of these are clear cell carcinomas. RCC is cryptic and difficult to detect in its early stages. Despite rapid advances in imaging technology in recent years, early diagnosis remains challenging. Furthermore, RCC is highly malignant and insensitive to both radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The incidence of RCC in my country has been increasing annually. RCC is not a simple disease, with numerous histological types, including clear cell carcinoma, multilocular cystic RCC, papillary RCC, and chromophobe RCC.
[0003] Kidney cancer is a multi-gene disease, and its development and progression are influenced by mutations in multiple genes. Recently, researchers from the Sanger Institute in the UK, the National Cancer Centre Singapore, and other institutions discovered PBRM1, the second most mutated gene in renal cell carcinoma. Using large-scale exome sequencing, the scientists found that the PBRM1 gene is mutated in 41% (92 / 227) of clear cell renal cell carcinomas. This gene, also located on the short arm of chromosome 3 (3p21), encodes the protein BAF180, a subunit of the SWI / SNF chromosome remodeling complex (PBAF). The SWI / SNF complex, first discovered in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, is a highly conserved ATP-dependent chromosome remodeling complex. Its human homolog is called PBAF. It plays a role in replication, transcription, DNA repair, and cell proliferation and differentiation. It is composed of multiple subunits, and the loss of any one subunit results in functional loss of the complex. Loss of SWI / SNF complex function is associated with many malignancies. The PBRM1 protein (BAF180) is composed of 1,689 amino acids, including a DNA-binding domain (HMG), two protein-interacting components (BAH1 and BAH2), and six acetylated histone-binding domains (BD1-BD6). It plays a crucial role in cell mitosis and gene transcription. PBRM1 gene mutations have been found in breast cancer, where it functions as a tumor suppressor gene. Researchers using RNA interference (RNAi) have demonstrated that PBRM1 is a tumor suppressor gene in renal cell carcinoma (RCC), at least in part, involved in the recognition and modification of histone H3. As a newly discovered RCC gene, in-depth research on PBRM1 will provide new insights into the diagnosis and treatment of RCC.
[0004] In recent years, the development of molecular biology experimental techniques, such as microarray (TMA) technologies such as gene sequencing and high-throughput tissue sequencing, has enabled the detection and analysis of the expression of hundreds of different biomolecules, including DNA, RNA, and proteins. However, inactivation of the VHL gene remains the predominant genetic alteration in renal cancer, particularly in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). Nickerson et al. found that 91% of patients with pathologically confirmed clear cell renal cell carcinoma had mutations or hypermethylation of the VHL gene. The VHL gene is located on the short arm of chromosome 3 (3p25.3), and inactivation occurs through mutation, loss of heterozygosity (LOH), and hypermethylation. VHL gene inactivation results in the loss of normal function of the VHL protein it encodes. This, in turn, prevents the effective degradation of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF), resulting in activation of hypoxia-inducible genes.
[0005] In 1986, Dutch scientists discovered a new renal cancer-associated antigen, G250, and conducted systematic and in-depth studies, finding that G250 exhibits excellent renal cancer specificity. The high specificity and sensitivity of G250McAb binding to renal cancer cells makes it suitable for targeted tumor therapy. Chemically conjugating G250McAb to a vector enabled targeted transfection of the vector-carried reporter gene, CFP, into renal cancer cells, while also doubling the transfection efficiency of GFP. Researchers also found that when using MAbG250 for targeted immunotherapy of renal cancer, efficacy ceased to improve with increasing antibody concentration beyond a certain level. Analysis suggests that because the efficacy of G250-targeted therapy is positively correlated with the amount of MAbG250 bound to the G250 antigen, once a certain amount of G250 antibody is injected into the body, all G250 antigenic determinants present on renal cancer cells are targeted, resulting in saturation. Therefore, increasing the dose and concentration of the injected antibody does not improve the efficacy of MAbG250 in treating renal cancer. Therefore, to further enhance the efficacy of targeted immunotherapy for renal cancer, particularly high-grade renal cancer, upregulating G250 antigen expression is an effective approach. Studies have shown that IL-2 and IFNα cytokines upregulate G250 antigen expression in renal cancer cell lines 786-0 and OS-RC-2, with a clear dose- and time-dependent effect. Furthermore, an additive effect was observed when the drugs were used in combination. Therefore, IL-2 and IFNα were used in combination to enhance G250 antigen expression in renal cancer cells. Specifically, a complex formed by ligating G250McAb and a plasmid encoding interleukin (IL)-2 was transfected into renal cancer cells. The complex was found to be able to transfer the IL-2 gene into renal cancer cells through antibody-mediated endocytosis, where it remained in the perinuclear zone for over 20 hours. IL-2 secretion by transfected renal cancer cells persisted for 15 days. These findings suggest that G250McAb and the various antibodies derived from it hold great significance in targeted immunotherapy for renal cancer. Summary of the Invention

[0028] Figure 1 Effects of monoclonal antibodies on G250 protein expression in cancer cells DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0029] Specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although specific embodiments of the present invention are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present invention can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to enable a more thorough understanding of the present invention and to fully convey the scope of the present invention to those skilled in the art.
[0030] Example 1 Preparation of G250 Monoclonal Antibody
[0031] (I) Preparation of G250 antigen protein
[0032] Recombinant G250 protein was prepared according to conventional methods in the art. Specifically, primers were designed based on the G250 cDNA sequence (Genbank accession number BC014950). The upstream primer was 5'-AGAAGCTTTTCCAATGCACGTACAGCC-3', plus two protective bases and a HindIII restriction site; the downstream primer was 5'-TACTCGAGGCATAATGAGCAGGACAGG-3', plus two protective bases and an XhoI restriction site. The PCR product should be 1520 bp in length (the G250 coding region sequence is 1380 bp and is included therein). The primers were synthesized by Shanghai Sangon Biotechnology Service Co., Ltd. 1.5 μl of cDNA from human renal carcinoma 786-0 cells was used as a template, and a 50 μl reaction system contained 1.0 U of DNA polymerase, 5 μl of PCR buffer, 0.2 mmol / L dNTPs, 2 mmol / L MgSO4, and 0.2 μmol / L primers. Denature at 94°C for 2 minutes, perform 35 cycles of 94°C for 30 seconds, 56°C for 30 seconds, and 68°C for 2 minutes, and finally 68°C for 5 minutes. PCR products were purified using a PCR purification kit. The purified PCR product and plasmid pcDNA3.0 were double-digested with HindI and XhoI, respectively. The digested fragments were recovered using a DNA gel recovery kit (Shanghai Sangon Biotechnology Service Co., Ltd.) and ligated with T4 DNA ligase. Competent Escherichia coli DH5α was prepared using the calcium chloride method. 9 μl of the ligation product was transformed and plated on SOB plates containing ampicillin and cultured overnight. PCR amplification and sequencing were performed, and the successfully transformed pcDNA3.0-G250 plasmid was extracted and identified. The recombinant plasmid was then introduced into CHO cells using liposomes as a medium. After selection with G418 at a final concentration of 400 μg / mL, transfection-positive cell clones were obtained and expanded in RPMI1640 medium. A large amount of culture supernatant was collected and protein purified using agarose gel coupled with G250 antibody. Specifically, 6 mg of G250 monoclonal antibody was coupled to cyanogen bromide-activated Sepharose 4B. 100 mL of RPMI1640 medium containing G250 was collected and centrifuged at high speed to remove cell debris. The supernatant was passed through an anion exchange Q column, and the target protein was eluted with 25 mmol / L CaCl2. The eluted fraction was passed through an agarose gel affinity chromatography column coupled with G250 antibody, and the G250 protein was eluted with 0.1 mol / L sodium citrate (pH 3.5). The eluate was quantified for protein and freeze-dried for later use.
[0033] (II) Preparation of G250 protein monoclonal antibody
[0034] BALB / c mice were immunized three times with recombinant G250 protein, mixed with an equal volume of Freund's complete adjuvant, via subcutaneous injection at multiple sites. Each immunization was two weeks apart, with a dose of 120 μg per mouse. Seven days after the third immunization, mice were pulsed with unadjuvanted G250 protein. Four days later, spleen cells from the mice with the highest titer were fused.
[0035] Cell fusion and positive cell screening were performed according to conventional methods. SP2 / 0 cells were fused with spleen cells in the presence of PEG1500. After fusion, DMEM medium was replaced with HAT and HT. After hybridoma cells grew to approximately one-third of the basal area, the supernatant was aspirated and the antibody titer was determined by indirect ELISA. Wells with strong positive results were selected for subcloning and screening, resulting in the identification of the hybridoma cell line G4H9 that secretes anti-G250 protein antibodies.
[0036] Example 2 Identification of G4H9 Monoclonal Antibody Subtypes
[0037] Inject 1×10 6 After incubating the mouse with G4H9 hybridoma cells, a noticeable abdominal bulge was observed. The supernatant of the ascites was collected after centrifugation and titered by indirect ELISA, resulting in a titer of 1:256,000. The ascites monoclonal antibody was crudely extracted by ammonium sulfate precipitation and further purified using Protein G. SDS-PAGE analysis revealed two distinct bands at approximately 25 kD and 56 kD for the G4H9 monoclonal antibody, representing the light and heavy chains, respectively. This confirmed the purity of the monoclonal antibody, and the antibody concentration was adjusted to 2 mg / mL for later use.
[0038] The subtype of the purified antibody was identified using a mouse Ig class / monoclonal antibody subclass detection kit. The results showed that the G4H9 monoclonal antibody of the present invention was of IgG1 type, and the light chain was a κ chain.
[0039] Example 3 Affinity and specificity of G4H9 monoclonal antibody and sequence identification
[0040] Specificity identification: Protein G250, renal cell carcinoma 786-0 cell lysate, human serum albumin, whey protein, mouse serum, and E. coli lysate were diluted 1:10 and coated onto an ELISA plate at a 100 μg / mL concentration. The plate was incubated at 4°C overnight, blocked, and washed. Afterwards, the monoclonal antibody G4H9 of the present invention was added dropwise at a 1:1000 dilution. The plate was incubated at room temperature for 1 hour. The plate was washed three times with PBST, and goat anti-mouse IgG alkaline phosphatase (1:5000) was added dropwise. The plate was incubated at room temperature for 1 hour. After washing as above, PNPP was added and the plate was developed at 37°C for 40 minutes. The results were recorded using an ELISA reader.
[0041] Table 1 Specificity of monoclonal antibodies
[0042] Sample type Identification results (- for negative, + for positive) G250 protein + Renal cell carcinoma 786-0 cell lysate + Human albumin - whey protein - Mouse serum - E. coli lysate -
[0043] From the results in Table 1, it can be seen that the monoclonal antibody of the present invention can specifically react with G250 protein and renal cancer 786-0 cell lysate, but not with other proteins, indicating that the monoclonal antibody of the present invention has good specificity.
[0044] The affinity constant of the human G4H9 monoclonal antibody was determined using a Biacore T200 instrument. Anti-mouse Fc antibodies were covalently coupled to a CM5 biosensor chip via amino group binding. The anti-mouse Fc antibody on the chip captured the monoclonal antibody. Various concentrations of G250 recombinant protein were flowed over the antibody on the chip at a flow rate of 20 μL / min. Human G250 recombinant protein bound to the candidate antibody with an association time of 120 s and a dissociation time of 300 s. Kinetic fitting using BIAevaluation software yielded an affinity constant, indicating a KD of (4.52 ± 0.17) nM for the monoclonal antibody of the present invention.
[0045] RNA was extracted from the hybridoma cell line G4H9 and cDNA was synthesized. The first-strand cDNA product obtained was used as a template for PCR amplification. The light chain gene was amplified using Universal Primer A Mix (UPM), Nested Universal Primer A (NUP), and mIg-kR primers, while the heavy chain gene was amplified using Universal Primer A Mix (UPM), Nested Universal Primer A (NUP), and mIg-HR primers. The light and heavy chain genes were sent to Shanghai Bioengineering for sequencing. The results showed that the light chain variable region sequence of the G4H9 monoclonal antibody is shown in SEQ ID NO: 1, and the heavy chain variable region sequence is shown in SEQ ID NO: 2.
[0046] Example 4 Analysis of the effect of monoclonal antibodies on cancer cells
[0047] Human renal cancer 786-0 cell line was purchased from Hongshun Biotechnology. Renal cancer 786-0 cells were cultured in DMEM medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum and 100 U / mL penicillin-streptomycin, and cultured and passaged in a cell culture incubator at 37°C and 5% CO2.
[0048] Equal amounts of cells in the logarithmic phase were plated in 96-well plates. Low, medium, and high dose experimental groups, as well as negative and positive control groups, were divided into experimental groups treated with 10, 100, and 200 μg / mL monoclonal antibodies, negative control groups with equal amounts of normal saline, and positive control groups with 100 μM c-Myc small molecule inhibitor 10058-F4. Each group was intervened for 72 hours. 20 μL of MTT (5 mg / mL) solution was added to each well and incubated for 4 hours. The optical density (OD) value of each well was detected at 570 nm, and the proliferation inhibition rate of human renal cancer 786-0 cells was calculated as (1- OD570nm of experimental group / OD570nm of control group) × 100%. Five replicate wells were set up for control, and each group was repeated 3 times. The results are shown in Table 2.
[0049] Table 2 Effects of each group on the inhibition rate of cancer cells
[0050] Group Inhibition rate (%) High-dose experimental group 74.58±1.53* Medium dose experimental group 62.47±0.74* Low-dose experimental group 53.59±0.62* Negative control group 0 Positive control group 55.42±0.83*
[0051] As can be seen from the results in Table 2, the monoclonal antibodies of the present invention have a dose-dependent effect in treating cancer. Like the positive control group, the difference relative to the negative control group is highly significant (P < 0.01). Under high concentrations of monoclonal antibodies, the inhibitory effect is even better than that of the positive control group.
[0052] Human renal cancer 786-0 cell line was purchased from Hongshun Biotechnology. Renal cancer 786-0 cells were cultured in DMEM medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum and 100 U / mL penicillin-streptomycin, and cultured and passaged in a cell culture incubator at 37°C and 5% CO2.
[0053] Equal amounts of cells in the logarithmic phase were taken and seeded in 96-well plates. The medium-dose and high-dose experimental groups and the control group were treated with 100 and 200 μg / mL monoclonal antibodies and equal amounts of normal saline, respectively, and each group was intervened for 48 hours. The cells in each group were lysed, the protein was extracted, and 12% SDS-PAGE gel electrophoresis was performed at the same time, and then transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane (NC membrane). The transferred NC membrane was then blocked with 5% skim milk at room temperature for 2 hours and washed three times with PBST. The prepared monoclonal antibody (1:5000 dilution) was added as the primary antibody, incubated at room temperature for 1 hour, and washed three times with PBST after the incubation was completed. Then, the IRDye700RD-labeled goat anti-mouse IgG secondary antibody was added and incubated at room temperature for 40 minutes. After the incubation was completed, it was washed three times with PBST. The labeled NC membrane was scanned and analyzed using Infrared Imaging Systems. The results are shown in the figure. Figure 1 shown.
[0054] from Figure 1It can be seen that lane A is the G250 protein expression band of the control group, lane B is the G250 protein expression band after treatment with a medium dose of monoclonal antibody, and lane C is the G250 protein expression band after treatment with a high dose of monoclonal antibody. After treatment with the monoclonal antibody of the present invention under high concentration conditions, the expression of G250 protein is basically inhibited, and the medium dose of monoclonal antibody also has a significant inhibitory effect compared with the control group, and the difference is significant (P<0.05).
