Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of biomedical technology and relates to a three-specificity connector for regulating the phagocytic function of macrophages and its application. Background Technology
[0002] The information disclosed in this background section is intended only to enhance understanding of the overall background of the invention and is not necessarily to be construed as an admission or in any way implying that such information constitutes prior art known to those skilled in the art.
[0003] Macrophage-mediated phagocytosis has shown great potential in immunotherapy. Its targeted phagocytosis can effectively clear pathogens, apoptotic cells, and tumor-associated antigens, and can also promote the functional coordination of the innate and adaptive immune systems through antigen cross-presentation mechanisms. In recent years, immunotherapy strategies relying on macrophage phagocytosis have demonstrated significant advantages over traditional treatment methods.
[0004] In immunotherapy, regulating the dynamic balance between pro-phagocytic and anti-phagocytic signals is crucial for macrophages to effectively clear target cells. Macrophages can only overcome inhibition and achieve effective clearance when the intensity of pro-phagocytic signals significantly exceeds that of anti-phagocytic signals. However, the expression levels of pro-phagocytic markers and anti-phagocytic molecules vary significantly across different disease states. If pro-phagocytic signals are weak due to insufficient expression of related markers, even targeted interventions to enhance their activity may still suppress them due to high levels of anti-phagocytic signals; conversely, if only anti-phagocytic signals are inhibited without sufficient pro-phagocytic drive, phagocytic function is difficult to activate. Furthermore, diseased cells may evade immunotherapy by dynamically regulating the expression levels of these two types of signals, leading to unstable efficacy of single-therapy treatments. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the present invention aims to provide a three-specificity connector for regulating macrophage phagocytic function and its application. The three-specificity connector provided by the present invention can simultaneously regulate pro-phagocytic and anti-phagocytic signals, thereby achieving precise regulation of macrophage phagocytosis, activating immune responses, and improving the therapeutic effect of diseases.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of the present invention is as follows: In the first aspect, a three-specificity connector for regulating the phagocytic function of macrophages is provided, comprising a target cell-specific recognition module, a phagocytic signal activation module, and an anti-phagocytic signal blocking module, which are connected by a first connector (L1) and a second connector (L2) to form a linear structure. The target cell-specific recognition module can specifically recognize and bind to target cells; the phagocytic signal activation module can activate the phagocytic signal receptors on the surface of macrophages and enhance the phagocytic ability of macrophages; the antiphagocytic signal blocking module can block the antiphagocytic signal receptors on the surface of macrophages and relieve the inhibition of macrophages on target cells. Both the first and second linkers are linear peptides, which are formed by linking at least one flexible peptide segment and at least one rigid peptide segment.
[0007] The flexible peptides described in this invention refer to peptides rich in small molecule amino acids or hydrophilic amino acid sequences, which provide good flexibility and solubility and allow the movement of linked functional domains.
[0008] The rigid peptides described in this invention refer to those with an α-helix structure or containing multiple Pro residues that exhibit a relatively rigid amino acid sequence.
[0009] The connector described in this invention enables the phagocytic signal activation module and the antiphagocytic signal blocking module to act simultaneously on the same macrophage by controlling the rigidity and length of the first connector, thus synergistically regulating the phagocytic and antiphagocytic signals and efficiently initiating the macrophage's phagocytic activity. At the same time, the rigid extension structure of the second connector enables the cell-specific recognition module to specifically recognize and bind to the target cell, effectively clearing the target cell.
[0010] On the other hand, a nucleic acid molecule encodes the aforementioned three-specificity connector that regulates the phagocytic function of macrophages.
[0011] Thirdly, a composition comprising the above-mentioned trispecific adaptor for regulating macrophage phagocytosis or the above-mentioned nucleic acid molecule and a carrier.
[0012] Fourthly, the application of the above-mentioned three-specificity connector, nucleic acid molecule, or composition for regulating macrophage phagocytic function in the preparation of drugs.
[0013] Specifically, the drug has the effects of target cell clearance, tumor immunity, infectious diseases, tissue repair, regulation of inflammatory responses and / or regulation of autoimmune diseases.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: This invention, through the design of the linker, not only connects the target cell-specific recognition module, the pro-phagocytic signal activation module, and the anti-phagocytic signal blocking module, but also, by adjusting the linker, enables the synergistic regulation of each module to control the pro-phagocytic and anti-phagocytic signals, efficiently initiating macrophage phagocytosis and specifically recognizing and binding to target cells, thereby achieving the goal of effectively clearing target cells. Experiments have demonstrated that the three-specificity linker provided by this invention can effectively improve the phagocytic efficiency of macrophages on target cells.
