Abstract
Description
[Technical field]
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of immunotherapy, in particular to the technical field of construction and application of a chimeric cytokine receptor based on transforming growth factor TGF-β. [Background technology]
[0002] In recent years, with the development of tumor immunotherapy, how to effectively overcome the complex tumor microenvironment of solid tumors has become a research focus; there are a variety of immunosuppressive factors in the tumor microenvironment, including immunosuppressive cells (such as regulatory T cells, myeloid-derived suppressor cells and tumor-associated macrophages), inhibitory factors (such as PGE2, TGF-β, IL-4 and IL-10) and immune checkpoint molecules (such as PD-1 / PD-L1 and CTLA-4); in addition, factors such as hypoxia and lack of metabolic resources further weaken the function of effector immune cells, resulting in the traditional cell immunotherapy in the treatment of solid tumors is far less effective than hematological tumors.
[0003] Chimeric cytokine receptor technology provides new possibilities for immunotherapy; the basic design concept of chimeric cytokine receptors is to utilize the high expression characteristics of specific immunosuppressive factors in the tumor microenvironment, combine the extracellular domain of the inhibitory factor receptor with the intracellular signal transduction domain of the activating receptor, and thus convert the inhibitory signal into an activating signal, such as Wang Y and Leen AM (Wang Y, Jiang H, Luo H, Sun Y, Shi B, Sun R, Li Z. An IL-4 / 21 Inverted Cytokine Receptor Improving CAR-T Cell Potency in Immunosuppressive Solid-Tumor Microenvironment [J]. Frontiers in Immunology, 2019, 10: 1691 and Leen AM, Sukumaran S, Watanabe N, Mohammed S, Keirnan J, Yanagisawa R, Anurathapan U, Rendon D, Heslop HE, Rooney CM, Brenner MK, Vera JF. Reversal of tumor immune inhibition Using achimeric cytokine receptor.Mol Ther.2014Jun;22(6):1211-1220.doi:10.1038 / mt.2014.47.Epub 2014Mar20.PMID:24732709;PMCID:PMC4048899) The extracellular part of IL-4 receptor is combined with the intracellular part of IL-7 or IL-21 to form IL-4 / 7ICR or IL-4 / 21ICR, which significantly enhances the killing ability of CAR-T cells in the tumor microenvironment with high IL-4 expression after being transferred into CAR-T cells.
[0004] The transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) signaling pathway is an extremely important intracellular signal transduction pathway in the occurrence and development of tumors. TGF-β can not only promote infiltration and metastasis by inducing changes in the matrix environment around the tumor, promoting tumor angiogenesis, and inducing epithelial-mesenchymal transition of tumor cells, but also can significantly inhibit the activity of CD8+T cells, NK cells, etc. through high expression in the tumor microenvironment, becoming an important node in the immunosuppressive network. However, the design of the above two studies only targets the IL-4 cytokine in the tumor microenvironment, while the expression of inhibitory cytokines in different tumors is different, and different inhibitory cytokines have different inhibitory effects on different immune cells. In other words, how to use immune cells such as NK cells to reverse the inhibitory effect of TGF-β still needs to be solved. [Summary of the invention]
[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the problems in the prior art and propose the construction and application of a chimeric cytokine receptor based on transforming growth factor TGF-β. The constructed chimeric cytokine receptor can be used to modify immune cells such as T cells and NK cells, thereby reversing the effects of traditional inhibitory pathways on immune cells and converting the inhibitory effect of TGF-β on immune cells into an activating effect.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention proposes a chimeric cytokine receptor based on transforming growth factor TGF-β, comprising an extracellular segment, a transmembrane segment and an intracellular segment connected in sequence, wherein the extracellular segment is an extracellular segment of human TGFBR1 or an extracellular segment of human TGFBR2, the intracellular segment is an intracellular segment of NKP46 from humans or other species, and the transmembrane segment is a transmembrane segment of a transmembrane protein from humans or other species.

[0019] Table 1 Sequence Listing Beneficial effects of the present invention:
[0020] The present invention forms a new chimeric cytokine receptor (TGFBR / NKP46 CCR) by recombining the extracellular segment of the TGF-β receptor (TGFBR1 or TGFBR2) and the intracellular segment of the NK cell receptor NKP46. The extracellular segment of the TGF-β receptor can be used to bind to the TGF-β in the microenvironment to receive the signal, and the intracellular segment of NKP46 can be used to transduce the upstream signal to generate an activation signal in the cell. The present invention also introduces the chimeric cytokine receptor into immune effector cells (T cells, NK cells or macrophages, etc.) or stem cells (autologous, allogeneic, stem cell differentiation or specific cell lines) through gene transfection technology by constructing an expression vector, thereby using the chimeric cytokine receptor to reverse the inhibitory effect of TGF-β in the microenvironment on immune cells such as T cells and NK cells, so that the cells expressing the chimeric cytokine receptor still have high activity and function in an immunosuppressive environment rich in TGF-β, such as the ability to kill tumor cells, the ability to proliferate or differentiate, and the cytokine secretion function.

[Specific implementation method]
[0034] Embodiment 1:
[0035] 1. Design and acquisition of TGFRB2 / NKp46 CCR:
[0036] The extracellular sequence of human TGFRB2, the transmembrane sequence of human NKP46, and the intracellular sequence of human NKP46 are sequentially combined and connected to form a structure such as Figure 1 The expression sequence (SEQ) of the chimeric cytokine receptor TGFRB2 / NKP46 CCR shown; subsequently, the sequence was synthesized and cloned into the pUC57 vector for preservation, and was named pUC57-TGFRB2 / NKP46; in addition, the nucleic acid sequence and polypeptide sequence of pUC57-TGFRB2 / NKP46 are shown in SEQ ID NO.17 and SEQ ID NO.18 in the sequence table, respectively.
[0037] 2. Construction of lentiviral vector:
[0038] First, the pUC57-TGFRB2 / NKP46 plasmid was extracted and digested with QuickCut restriction endonucleases BamHI and XbaI (Takara) (the specific digestion reaction system was to take 1 μg of pUC57-TGFRB2 / NKP46, 1 μl of BamHI and XbaI, 2 μl of 10X QuickCut Green Buffer, add water to 20 μl, and incubate in a 37°C water bath for 15 min); the digested products were separated by agarose gel electrophoresis, and DNA fragments were recovered using an agarose gel DNA fragment recovery kit (purchased from Takara) (the results are shown in Figure 2 From the electrophoresis diagram, it can be seen that the left figure shows the band of TGFRB2 / NKP46 CCR released after the pUC57-TGFRB2 / NKP46 vector was digested with BamHI and XbaI).
[0039] The same method was used to digest the pCDH-EFS-Luc-T2A-EGFP vector (see Figure 3 ), and the vector fragments after enzyme digestion were separated and recovered by agarose gel electrophoresis (results see Figure 2 From the electrophoresis diagram, it can be seen that the right side of the figure is the pCDH-SFFV-Luc-T2A-EGFP vector part after enzyme digestion).
[0040] The recovered TGFRB2 / NKP46 CCR fragment was connected to the vector after restriction digestion by T4 ligase (purchased from Takara) (the specific reaction system and conditions were as follows: first, the TGFRB2 / NKP46 CCR and pCDH-EFS-Luc-T2A-EGFP vector digested by BamHI and XbaI were quantified, and then added into the system at a molar ratio of 1:3 according to the vector and the target band; the reaction system also included 1 μl of 10X T4 DNA Ligase Buffer and 1 μl of ligase, which were made up to 10 μl with water, and connected at 16°C for 4 h or overnight); the ligation product was transformed into E. coli DH5a competent bacteria, cultured at 37°C overnight, and a single colony was picked. After amplification, the plasmid of the positive clone was extracted using a plasmid extraction kit (purchased from Axygene) according to the operating instructions of the kit. After restriction digestion and sequencing detection, the correct vector was named pCDH-TGFRB2 / NKP46 (see Figure 4 ).
[0041] 3. Lentivirus packaging and titer determination:
[0042] HEK293T cells with a confluence of 90% were passaged in 10 mm cell culture dishes, and DMEM high-glucose medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum was added, and cultured at 37°C and 5% CO2 for 24 h. When the cell confluence reached 30-40%, fresh serum-containing medium was replaced, and cultured for 2 h. Three packaging plasmids pMD2.G (3.24 μg), pMDL-G / P-RRE (4.5 μg), pRSV-REV (2.25 μg) and pCDH-TGFRB2 / NKP46 plasmid (11.52 μg) was co-transfected into HEK293T cells by calcium phosphate precipitation method, and fresh culture medium was replaced after 16 h of culture; GFP expression of HEK293T cells was observed under a fluorescence microscope after 24 h, and supernatant was collected after 48 h and filtered with a 0.45 μm filter to remove cell debris; the filtered supernatant was centrifuged in an ultrahigh-speed centrifuge at 20,000 r / min and 4°C for 3 h, the virus particle precipitate was collected, resuspended in serum-free 1640 culture medium, and stored in a -70°C refrigerator for later use.
[0043] HEK293T cells were cultured at 5 × 10 3 The cells were inoculated at a density of cells / well in a 96-well plate, each well containing 100 μL of DMEM high-glucose medium with 10% fetal bovine serum, and cultured overnight at 37°C and 5% CO2; 40 μL of pCDH-TGFRB2 / NKP46 lentiviral stock solution was taken separately, and 360 μL of DMEM high-glucose medium (containing 10% fetal bovine serum) with a final concentration of 8 μg / mL polybrene was added; and a 10-fold gradient dilution was performed; 90 μL of the culture supernatant was carefully aspirated from the 96-well plate inoculated with HEK293T cells, and then 90 μL of the above gradient diluted virus particle solution was added to each well, and each dilution was repeated for 3 wells; the culture was continued for 24 hours, the culture medium of each well was cleaned, and fresh culture medium without any virus particles was replaced, and the culture was continued for 24 hours. The proportion of fluorescent cells in each dose group was calculated by flow cytometry, and the original average virus titer was calculated. The results are shown in Figure 5 As shown, the titer of the pCDH-TGFRB2 / NKP46 lentiviral stock solution was calculated to be 7.31E7TU / ml.
