Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of biotechnology, and in particular to a monoclonal antibody against the novel Bunyavirus NP antigen and its applications and products. Background Technology

[0002] Severe Fever with Thrombocytopenia Syndrome Bunyavirus (SFTSV) is a virus first reported and isolated in Henan Province, China. SFTSV is an enveloped negative-sense virus with a single RNA strand. The SFTSV genome consists of three single-stranded segments: a large segment (L), a medium segment (M), and a small segment (S). The L segment, containing 6368 nucleotides, encodes RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) for viral replication, mediating viral RNA replication and mRNA synthesis. The M segment, containing 3378 nucleotides, contains viral envelope glycoproteins (glycoproteins NGn and CGc), which play a crucial role in viral assembly and viral particle formation. The S segment, consisting of 1744 nucleotides, uses two reverse reading frames to encode nucleocapsid proteins (N) and non-structural proteins (NSs).

[0003] Patients infected with the novel Bunyavirus (SFTSV) mainly experience systemic poisoning symptoms such as fever, chills, fatigue, and body aches; gastrointestinal symptoms such as vomiting, hematemesis, and diarrhea. Patients with rapidly deteriorating conditions quickly develop altered consciousness, respiratory and gastrointestinal bleeding, and in more severe cases, death due to respiratory failure, disseminated intravascular coagulation, and multiple organ failure. The pathogenic mechanism of SFTSV is still under investigation. Preliminary studies suggest that SFTSV infection may activate certain receptor tyrosine kinases, such as nerve growth factor receptor and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor, and complete viral replication and release through the RTKs-PI3K / Akt-mTOR pathway.

[0004] Monoclonal antibodies have become an important tool for infectious disease diagnosis due to their specificity and flexibility. Based on the high affinity and specificity of antibody-antigen binding, monoclonal antibodies against the novel Bunyavirus NP antigen can specifically bind to the NP protein and could be used as SFTSV-NP monoclonal antibodies for both prevention and treatment. However, to date, no monoclonal antibodies targeting the novel Bunyavirus NP protein are commercially available. Therefore, developing effective monoclonal antibodies against the novel Bunyavirus NP antigen is of great significance for disease prevention and treatment.

All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention. Unless otherwise specified, conventional conditions or conditions recommended by the manufacturer shall apply. Reagents or instruments whose manufacturers are not specified are all commercially available conventional products.

[0033] Generally, the nomenclature and techniques used in cell and tissue culture, molecular biology, immunology, microbiology, genetics, and protein and nucleic acid chemistry and hybridization, together with those described herein, are those well-known and commonly used in the art. Unless otherwise stated, the methods and techniques of the present invention are generally carried out according to conventional methods well-known in the art and described in various general and more specific references, which are cited and discussed throughout this specification.

The nomenclature, laboratory procedures, and techniques used in analytical chemistry, synthetic organic chemistry, and medical and medicinal chemistry, together with those described herein, are those well-known and commonly used in the art.

[0034] The "variable region" or "variable domain" of an antibody refers to the domain at the amino terminus of the antibody's heavy or light chain that recognizes and binds to antigens. The composition and arrangement of the amino acids in this region determine the antibody's specificity in recognizing antigens. The heavy chain variable region can be called "VH," and the light chain variable region can be called "VL." These domains are usually the most variable parts of the antibody and contain antigen-binding sites. The variable regions of both the heavy and light chains consist of three complementarity-determining regions (CDRs) (also known as hypervariable regions) connected by four framework regions (FRs). The CDRs in each chain are held tightly together by the FRs to form the variable region. Typically, the VL / VH variable regions of the heavy and light chains are obtained by connecting the following numbered CDRs with FRs in the following combination: FR1-CDR1-FR2-CDR2-FR3-CDR3-FR4.

[0035] The term "vector" refers to a nucleic acid delivery vehicle into which nucleotides can be inserted. When a vector enables the expression of a protein encoded by the inserted polynucleotide, it is called an expression vector. Vectors can be introduced into host cells through transformation, transduction, or transfection, allowing the genetic material they carry to be expressed in the host cells.

[0036] The vectors described herein are well-known to those skilled in the art and include, but are not limited to: plasmids; phage particles; Cos plasmids; artificial chromosomes, such as yeast artificial chromosomes (YAC), bacterial artificial chromosomes (BAC), or P1-derived artificial chromosomes (PAC); bacteriophages such as λ phage or M13 phage; and animal viruses. Animal viruses that can be used as vectors include, but are not limited to, retrotranscriptoviruses (including lentiviruses), adenoviruses, adeno-associated viruses, herpesviruses (such as herpes simplex virus), poxviruses, baculoviruses, papillomaviruses, and papillomaviruses. In some embodiments, the vectors of this invention contain regulatory elements commonly used in genetic engineering, such as enhancers, promoters, internal ribosome entry sites (IRES), and other expression control elements (e.g., transcription termination signals, or polyadenylation signals and poly-U sequences, etc.).

[0037] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a monoclonal antibody against the novel Bunyavirus NP antigen, wherein the variable region of the monoclonal antibody against the novel Bunyavirus NP antigen comprises: a complementarity-determining region CDR1-VH having the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO.1, a complementarity-determining region CDR2-VH having the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO.2, a complementarity-determining region CDR3-VH having the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO.3, a complementarity-determining region CDR1-VL having the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO.4, a complementarity-determining region CDR2-VL having the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO.14, and a complementarity-determining region CDR3-VL having the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO.5.

[0057] The present invention will be further illustrated below with specific embodiments. However, it should be understood that these embodiments are merely for the purpose of more detailed illustration and should not be construed as limiting the present invention in any way.

[0058] Example 1: Preparation of monoclonal antibody anti-SFTSV-NP-mab1

[0059] I. Preparation of Novel Bunyavirus NP Antigen

[0060] The NP protein can package viral nucleic acid into ribonucleoprotein complexes (RNPs), preventing the viral nucleic acid from being degraded by exogenous nucleases or the host's immune system. Therefore, in this invention, the inventors chose the NP protein and the novel Bunyavirus to screen for specific antibodies.

[0061] The original sequence number of the selected new Bunyavirus NP antigen is: >NC_043452.1. After the sequence was optimized, the sequence synthesis was entrusted to Shanghai Sangon Biotech Co., Ltd.

[0062] 1. Plasmid Acquisition

[0063] The SFTSV-NP DNA sequence was codon-optimized and constructed into the expression vector pET-30a. The SFTSV-NP / pET-30a plasmid was transformed into DH5α competent cells using the cloning vector. Transformation was performed using the heat shock method, and PCR was used to confirm successful transformation. Successfully transformed single colonies were picked and amplified. μg-level recombinant plasmids were extracted using a plasmid miniprep kit, and the correctness of the final recombinant plasmid was confirmed by NdeI and XhoI double digestion and sequencing.

[0064] 2. Protein Expression and Acquisition

[0065] The propagated SFTSV-NP / pET30a plasmid was transformed into the expression strain BL21(DE3), plated on LB agar plates, and incubated overnight at 37°C with kanamycin at 50.0 ug / ml, inverted. The next day, single colonies were picked, shaken, and high-expression colonies were preserved at -80°C.

[0066] Take the SFTSV-NP / pET30a / BL21(DE3) strain seed culture from the -80℃ freezer, thaw it at room temperature, take 45ul and add it to a 500ml Erlenmeyer flask containing 180ml LB medium, then add 180ul of 50mg / ml Kanamycin, and incubate overnight at 37℃ and 200rpm on a constant temperature shaker.

[0067] Induction of expression: The activated bacterial strain was inoculated into 1000ml Erlenmeyer flasks containing 400ml LB medium at a volume ratio of 1:40, with 410ul of 50mg / ml Kanamycin added simultaneously. IPTG was added to each flask to a final concentration of 200ug / ml, and the flasks were incubated at 25℃ and 200rpm for 5 hours. The cells were then collected by centrifugation at 6000rpm and 10℃ for 15 minutes. After sonication to disrupt the cells, the cell pellet was discarded, yielding the supernatant containing the target protein.

[0068] 3. Purification of the target protein

[0069] Since the obtained recombinant protein carried a 6×His tag, it was purified by affinity using a nickel column with a His tag. The final target protein (HIS-SFTSV-NP antigen) was obtained and used to immunize mice.

[0070] II. Preparation of monoclonal antibody anti-SFTSV-NP-mab1.

[0071] Generally, healthy female Balb / c mice aged 6-8 weeks are selected and immunized according to a pre-specified immunization protocol. Using these mice as immunogens, BALB / c mice are immunized, and lymphocytes from the spleen of successfully immunized mice are extracted. These lymphocytes are then fused with mouse myeloma cells SP2 / 0 using cell fusion technology. After two rounds of subclonal selection, a hybridoma cell line stably secreting monoclonal antibodies against the novel Bunyavirus NP antigen is obtained, thus yielding the monoclonal antibody against the novel Bunyavirus NP antigen.

[0072] The purified HIS-SFTSV-NP antigen was expressed in prokaryotes and used to immunize experimental mice in stages.

[0073] The specific steps of animal immunization experiments include:

[0074] 1. Balb / c mice with the same weight and age were randomly divided into two groups: an aluminum adjuvant group (aluminum hydroxide adjuvant) and a non-aluminum adjuvant group.

[0075] 2. Before the experiment, pre-immune serum was collected from each mouse (pre-immune serum was collected on the fifth day by blood collection through the eyeball, and an appropriate amount of blood was collected to ensure the normal condition of the mice). The collected serum was stored at 80℃.

[0076] 3. Preparation of aluminum adjuvant (aluminum hydroxide adjuvant) group: Before immunization, each antigen was diluted in 75 μL PBS to the corresponding dose (75 μg / mouse) and mixed with alum adjuvant (1 mg / mouse) at a volume ratio of antigen:adjuvant = 3:1 (i.e., 25 μl adjuvant was added to 75 μl of immunogen dilution). The adjuvant was shaken well before use, and the 25 μl adjuvant was slowly added dropwise to the immunogen solution. After thorough mixing of the adjuvant and immunogen dilution, the two solutions were allowed to mix thoroughly for 30 minutes to allow for effective adsorption of the antigen. Subsequent procedures were performed according to the animal immunization experiment procedures.

[0077] 4. Group without aluminum adjuvant: The antigen was diluted in 100 μL PBS to the corresponding dose in the table above (75 μg / mouse), and 100 μL of immunogen was added. Subsequent procedures were carried out according to the animal immunization experiment procedures.

[0078] 5. Subcutaneous injection at 2-week intervals: The experiment was designed as a 3-immunization method, but blood was collected from the eyeballs 7 days after each immunization injection. Part of the mouse supernatant was obtained by centrifugation and the serum titer was tested first. 7 days after the last immunization, the maximum blood volume was collected from the heart, and the supernatant was obtained by centrifugation and stored at 80℃.

[0079] 6. Detect serum titer.

[0080] Indirect ELISA was performed to detect the serum titer of immunized mice using the novel Bunyavirus NP antigen as the coating antigen. Indirect ELISA method: 50 μl of coating antigen diluted with coating buffer (1 μg / ml) was added to each well of the ELISA plate. After coating overnight at 4°C, the plate was washed three times with washing buffer (PBST). 200 μl of blocking buffer (5% skim milk powder) was added to each well, and the plate was incubated at 37°C for 2 hours. After washing, 50 μl of diluted serum was added to each well, and the plate was incubated at 37°C for 30 minutes. After washing, 50 μl of goat anti-mouse IgG-HRP solution was added, and the plate was incubated at 37°C for 30 minutes. After washing, 100 μl of substrate solution was added, and the plate was incubated at 37°C in the dark for 10 minutes. Finally, 50 μL of 2 mol / L H₂SO₄ was added to stop the reaction, and the A450 value was read using an ELISA reader. After three immunizations, the orbital blood titer of mice was >62500. Only 3 mice achieved a titer of over 50% at a ratio of 1:12500, indicating that fusion could be planned.

[0081] Immunosplenic cells were fused with myeloma cell line SP2 / 0. Fusion cells were screened using HAT selective medium (containing hypoxanthine, aminopterin, and thymine), and ELISA was performed to screen for positive results and subcloning. Ascites fluid was collected from the selected positive monoclonal cells, and antibodies were purified using a Protein A / G antibody purification column to obtain multiple monoclonal antibodies. The purified antibodies had an ELISA titer >1:128,000 and a purity >90%.

[0082] III. Detection of the binding activity of monoclonal antibodies to the new Bunyavirus NP antigen.

[0083] Indirect ELISA was used to test the titers of several obtained monoclonal antibodies. The results showed that SV03-6 exhibited excellent titers, achieving a working concentration of 15.625 ng / ml, and a detection limit of 1.95 ng / ml for the novel Bunyavirus NP protein. (See attached table for details.) Figure 1 .

[0084] Based on the high affinity of monoclonal antibodies, they can be used for the detection of the new Bunyavirus NP protein, such as in Western blotting and indirect immunofluorescence assays.

[0085] In this embodiment, the inventors infected Vero cells with a novel Bunyavirus. After plaques appeared, the infected cells were collected, lysed, and then used for Western blotting.

[0086] The results are attached. Figure 2 As shown, when Western blotting was performed using the monoclonal antibody SV03-6 as the primary antibody, the natural viral NP protein showed a clearly visible black band at 20–25 kDa, with no other non-specific bands.

[0087] In this embodiment, Vero cells in six-well plates were infected with neo Bunyavirus and fixed after viral-like lesions appeared. Indirect immunofluorescence detection was performed using monoclonal antibody SV03-6 as the primary antibody.

[0088] 1) Resuscitate Vero cells and, once the cells have filled the T25 culture flask, plate them into 24-well plates;

[0089] 2) After the cells have filled the 24-well plate, inoculate with the SFTSV strain. After adding the virus, transfer and shake well. Infect for 48-72 hours.

[0090] 3) Once obvious lesions appear in the cells, remove the culture medium, wash three times with 2% BSA, and fix with 80% pre-cooled acetone for 15 min;

[0091] 4) Remove the fixative, wash three times with 2% BSA, and incubate with Triton-100 for 10 min;

[0092] 5) Remove Triton-100, wash three times with 2% BSA, add pre-prepared monoclonal antibody SV03-6 as primary antibody, and incubate at 37°C for 1 hour or at 4°C overnight;

[0093] 6) Remove the primary antibody, wash three times with 2% BSA, and add the pre-prepared Alexa. 488 fluorescently labeled anti-mouse antibody was used as a secondary antibody and incubated at 37°C for 1 hour;

[0094] 7) Remove the secondary antibody, wash three times with 2% BSA, and add the pre-prepared DAPI solution for color development for 10 min;

[0095] 8) Remove the DAPI solution, wash three times with 2% BSA, and observe the fluorescence results under a fluorescence microscope. Record the observations by taking photos.

[0096] The results are attached. Figure 3 As shown, indirect immunofluorescence detection was performed using the monoclonal antibody SV03-6 as the primary antibody. Results showed that DAPI staining appeared deep blue, indicating the location of the Vero cell nucleus. Alexa... 488 fluorescence showed that the antibody tightly bound to the natural SFTSV virus. Combining the DAPI staining results with the fluorescent secondary antibody staining results yielded a MERGE image, which revealed the distribution of the monoclonal antibody SV03-6 binding to SFTSV-infected Vero cells. In summary, under green fluorescence, the tight binding of the monoclonal antibody to the natural viral NP protein was clearly visible.

[0097] Based on the product evaluation results, antibody SV03-6 was named anti-SFTSV-NP-mab1, and this antibody can be used for detection in the new Bunyavirus antigen detection kit.

[0098] IV. Sequence analysis of the V region (VH) of the heavy chain and the V region (VL) of the monoclonal antibody anti-SFTSV-NP-mab1.

[0099] Design primers to amplify the heavy chain V region (VH) and light chain V region (VL) genes.

[0100] The primers are as follows:

[0107] Light chain variable region reverse primer (VL-BACK):

[0109] Take a hybridoma cell line of anti-SFTSV-NP-mab1 in the logarithmic growth phase (about 107 cells), extract total RNA from the cells according to the instructions of the Trizol RNA extraction kit, use the total RNA as a template to reverse transcribe and synthesize the first strand of cDNA, and use the above amplification product as a template to PCR amplify the VH / VL gene of the antibody.

[0110] The heavy chain VH (approximately 360 bp) and light chain VL (approximately 300 bp) fragments of anti-SFTSV-NP-mab1 were recovered and sent to the company for sequencing.

[0111] Then, the VH / VL gene sequences were analyzed:

[0112] The resulting sequence is as follows:
