Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of medicine, and in particular to an anti-pan-coronavirus monoclonal antibody and an application thereof in detecting pan-coronavirus. Background Art
[0002] The well-known high-mortality coronaviruses (SARS, 9.5%; MERS, 34.4%; COVID-19, ~1-2%) are all transmitted from animals across species, causing severe respiratory infections in humans, posing a major threat to public health and safety and a serious social and economic burden. These three coronaviruses all use bats as natural hosts, and then infect intermediate host animals (the intermediate hosts of SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV are civets and camels, respectively, while SARS-CoV-2 may be bats and pangolins), obtain virus recombination products, and then spread across species. However, SARS-CoV-2 is unlikely to be the last coronavirus spillover infection event. Based on differences in protein sequences, coronaviruses can be divided into four genera - Alph coronavirus, Beta coronavirus, Gamma virus, and Delta coronavirus, with bats being the main host of coronaviruses. Serological evidence of human exposure to bat coronaviruses in rural China shows that there is a frequent bat coronavirus spillover effect, but it has not yet caused a pandemic. In addition to wild animals, domesticated livestock or pets also have the ability to spread the virus. For example, ferrets and cats are susceptible to SARS-CoV-2, especially cats can spread it between cats through respiratory droplets, indicating that coronavirus can spread among animals and can quickly adapt to new hosts. Different coronavirus strains can produce new variants through natural recombination, which can shuttle between animals and humans, leading to a potential new round of viral infection outbreaks.
[0003] In addition, another issue worth noting is that there is a time lag between new human coronavirus infections and the development of new treatments or preventive vaccines. Therefore, it is necessary to develop methods that can be used to detect future new coronavirus infections, establish a prediction and early warning mechanism, and conduct regular monitoring to achieve prediction and early warning of possible new coronavirus infections.
[0004] Prior art CN 114409774 A discloses a broad-spectrum humanized monoclonal neutralizing antibody against SARS-COV-2 virus. The neutralizing antibody is obtained by screening by single B cell flow sorting-antibody gene amplification paired expression technology, has a unique CDR region, can specifically bind to SARS-COV-2 and can effectively neutralize the "variants of concern" (SARS-CoV-2WT, alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Omicron) currently defined by the World Health Organization, especially the IC50 of neutralizing Omicron variant strains is less than 0.1 μg / mL. The present invention also relates to the preparation method and use of this group of neutralizing antibodies. The 4 antibodies of this invention can be used for emergency prevention and or treatment of the global epidemic of COVID-19 variant strains. However, it is a modified body that connects the antibody to ACE2, and its preparation process is complicated. Prior art CN 114716541 A discloses a full-human broad-spectrum neutralizing antibody against coronavirus and its application. Specifically, this invention discloses a fully human monoclonal antibody 76E1 targeting the S2 region of the coronavirus S protein, a nucleic acid sequence encoding the antibody and antibody fragments, and a method for preparing the same. In vitro and in vivo experiments have confirmed that the 76E1 antibody can effectively and broadly bind to and neutralize a variety of coronaviruses, prevent and control coronavirus infections, has low immunogenicity to the human body, and can be used clinically to prevent and treat coronavirus infection-related diseases such as SARS-CoV-2, as well as its potential application as a vaccine design. However, the antibody only has binding ability to seven human coronaviruses, and the EC 50 Between 40-300ng / mL, binding performance needs to be optimized. Summary of the invention
