Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of chemical analysis, and particularly to an acridinium ester or alkaline phosphatase antibody and its application and a chemiluminescence kit. Background Art

[0002] Chemiluminescent immunoassay (CLIA) is a modern analytical method with extremely high sensitivity and specificity in biomedical detection. Compared with traditional immunoassay techniques (such as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, ELISA, and radioimmunoassay, RIA), CLIA overcomes its limitations in sensitivity, specificity, and safety. Therefore, CLIA has become a highly efficient tool widely used in clinical diagnosis and biomedical research.

[0003] The research on the principle of chemiluminescence began in the 1950s and was applied in the field of immunoassay in the late 1970s. The basic principle of chemiluminescence is that a specific substrate reacts with a catalyst to generate a light signal (usually visible light or fluorescence), and this process does not rely on an external excitation light source. This discovery has led to the rapid development of CLIA technology.

[0004] With the continuous progress of immunology, antibody technology, and detection instruments, the specificity and sensitivity of CLIA technology have been significantly improved. Especially the innovation of antibody preparation technology has enabled CLIA to succeed in a wider range of application fields, including the detection of biomarkers and the early diagnosis of diseases.

[0005] In recent years, with the increasing demand for clinical testing, the upgrading of automation technology and instrumentation has enabled the CLIA method to maintain high accuracy and efficiency while processing a large sample volume. These advancements have significantly improved laboratory work efficiency and have enabled CLIA technology to occupy an important position in clinical diagnosis.

[0006] Currently, chemiluminescent immunoassay methods mainly include three types: direct chemiluminescent immunoassay, chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay, and electrochemiluminescent immunoassay.

[0007] Among them, in direct chemiluminescent immunoassay, an antibody or antigen (such as acridinium ester) is directly labeled to react immunologically with the corresponding target substance in the sample; after the reaction, an oxidant (such as hydrogen peroxide) and an alkaline environment are added to stimulate the decomposition reaction of acridinium ester to generate a light signal without the need for an external catalyst.

[0008] Chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay uses enzymes (such as horseradish peroxidase or alkaline phosphatase) to label antibodies or antigens; after forming a solid-phase complex through an immune reaction, a chemiluminescent substrate is added, and the enzyme catalyzes the decomposition of the substrate to generate a light signal; this signal is processed by a photomultiplier tube and then converted into an electrical signal for concentration determination by a computer system.

[0009] Electrochemiluminescence immunoassay uses electrochemiluminescent agents (such as ruthenium tris(bipyridyl)) to label antibodies or antigens; after an immune reaction, a chemiluminescent reaction triggered by an electron transfer process generates a light signal; this signal is received and amplified by a photon detection system, and finally the concentration of the target substance in the sample is calculated.

[0010] The above three chemiluminescent immunoassay methods have wide applications in the biomedical field, not only being suitable for the early diagnosis of diseases, but also playing important roles in drug research and development, immune monitoring, and biological research.

[0011] However, despite the numerous advantages of the above chemiluminescent immunoassay techniques, there are still some challenges. For example, direct chemiluminescent immunoassay has the disadvantages of low labeling stability and high background interference. Chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay has the disadvantages of more operation steps and a complicated enzyme labeling process.

[0012] Therefore, there is still much room for improvement in chemiluminescent immunoassay technology at present, and there is still a strong demand for better chemiluminescent reagents in this field. Summary of the Invention

After recovery, centrifuge the cells at 300g for 5 min, discard the medium, re-add CHO medium and add 25 μM MSX, and adjust the cell density to 1×10 6 . Culture the cells in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator for 8 - 10 days until the viability exceeds 30%.

[0058] e. Monoclonal screening

[0059] Dilute the cells with a viability rate of over 30% to 2.5 cells / mL. Use the commercial monoclonal medium from Consen, 200 μL per well, to cover a 96-well plate completely, with a total of 30 plates. The culture conditions are 37°C and 5% CO2 until the monoclonal growth completely covers the bottom of the wells. Screen the monoclonal cells with higher expression levels and transfer them to a shake flask for large-scale culture. Finally, construct a CHO-K1 monoclonal working cell bank and store it in a liquid nitrogen tank for subsequent antibody expression.

[0063] b. Cell transfer and fed-batch culture

[0064] Transfer the resuscitated cells to the fermentation medium and adjust the cell density to 0.5×10 6 / mL. Start the fed-batch feeding operation on the 5th day (Day 5) of culture and lower the culture temperature on the 7th day (Day 7) to extend the cell production period.

[0065] c. Supernatant collection

[0066] When culturing to the 15th day (Day 15) or when the cell viability drops below 60%, collect the culture supernatant. Remove the cell precipitate by centrifugation and retain the culture supernatant for subsequent purification steps.

[0067] (3) Affinity purification of TSH-AE and TSH-AP bispecific antibody

[0068] a. Affinity column packing

[0069] Calculate the required amount of Protein A packing according to the experimental requirements, load the commercial Protein A packing into the column, and wash the packing with PBS balance buffer to ensure that the column is in a balanced state.

[0070] b. Sample loading and washing

[0071] Load the centrifuged cell culture supernatant onto the affinity column at a low flow rate. After sample loading, wash the column with the balance buffer, with a washing volume of 10 column volumes. Then, wash it again with the pre-elution buffer A with a pH of 5.0 for 10 column volumes to remove non-specific binding substances.

[0072] c. Elution and Neutralization

[0073] The target antibody protein was eluted with a citric acid eluent at pH 3.2. The eluted protein solution was immediately neutralized with 2M Tris buffer to maintain protein activity. After the concentration of the neutralized antibody solution was determined, it was dialyzed and changed to PBS buffer, and finally aliquoted and stored.

Among them, the nanobody in the TSH-AE bispecific antibody was taken as SEQ ID NO.3, and the nanobody in the TSH-AP was taken as SEQ ID NO.13.

[0119] I. Detection method of chemiluminescence analyzer:

[0120] Taking the FEIPENG Shine i1000 fully automatic chemiluminescence immunoassay analyzer as an example, first add 50 μL of component R1, add 50 μL of sample, add 50 μL of component M, add 50 μL of component R2, incubate at 37°C for 5 min; the magnetic separator separates and removes the supernatant, washes 2 times with the washing solution, adds the substrate to react and detect the luminescence value.

[0121] The system will analyze the set concentration of the calibrator and the measured luminescence value, and automatically generate a calibration curve.

The samples were detected using an automated chemiluminescence immunoassay analyzer, and the concentrations of the samples at each dilution were measured. Each concentration was measured 3 times in duplicate, and the average value of each measurement was calculated.

[0126] Using the dilution concentration as the independent variable and the average value of the measurement results as the dependent variable, linear regression analysis was performed, and the regression equation and the correlation coefficient r were calculated. The test data are shown in Tables 1 and 2, indicating that the linear performance of the chemiluminescent reagent prepared with TSH-AE bispecific antibody and the chemiluminescent reagent prepared with TSH-AP bispecific antibody was maintained at 150 uIU / mL.

[0135]

[0136]

[0137] As can be seen from Table 3, the repeatability and accuracy of the detection kits prepared with TSH-AE bispecific antibody or TSH-AP bispecific antibody can meet the requirements of clinical applications.

[0138] V. Clinical correlation detection:

[0139] Using 20 Roche electrochemiluminescence calibrated clinical samples, the reagents in Example 10 were used, and the correlation detection of the clinical samples was carried out according to the detection method of the chemiluminescence analyzer. The detection results are shown in Figure 4 .

[0140] In addition, it should be noted that in addition to the above-mentioned thyroid stimulating hormone TSH monoclonal antibody, the anti-acridinium ester / anti-alkaline phosphatase monoclonal antibody of the present invention can also bind to other target antigen antibodies, such as cTnI, PCT, myo, CKMB, GP73, ST2, 25-OH-VD, anti-TSHR, anti-TPO, anti-TG, TT3, TT44 antibodies, etc., and is suitable for the detection of corresponding target antigens.

[0141] In summary, the bispecific antibody composed of the anti-acridinium ester monoclonal antibody / anti-alkaline phosphatase monoclonal antibody of the present invention and the target antigen can be directly applied to the chemiluminescence platform, and can bind to the luminescent substance to form a complex without additional chemical modification and labeling, greatly reducing the R & D investment of reagent manufacturers in the labeling process and raw material screening, and the reagent production process is simpler and more controllable. At the same time, the antibody of the present invention has strong affinity and good specificity for acridinium ester / alkaline phosphatase, and the chemiluminescence reagent prepared by the bispecific antibody prepared by its fusion expression also has better sensitivity, specificity, stronger signal value and stability.

[0142] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, and improvements made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
