Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of biomedical technology, and in particular to a feline allergen fusion protein, an mRNA immunomodulator, and their applications. Background Technology
[0002] Cat allergy is a common allergic disease in humans, mainly caused by cat allergens. Fel d1, Fel d2, and Fel d4 are the main allergenic proteins in cats. They can induce the human immune system to produce specific IgE antibodies, thereby triggering allergic reactions such as sneezing, runny nose, itchy skin, asthma, etc., which seriously affect the quality of life of allergy sufferers.
[0003] Currently, treatments for cat allergies mainly include avoiding contact with cats, medication, and immunotherapy. However, avoiding contact with cats is often difficult to achieve in real life; medication can only relieve symptoms and cannot fundamentally solve the allergy problem; while immunotherapy has some effect, it has problems such as a long treatment period (often 2-3 years) and unstable efficacy. Therefore, developing an efficient, safe, and convenient method to block cat allergens is of significant clinical importance.
[0004] Existing research primarily employs protein immunization to block feline allergens. However, traditional protein immunization methods have several drawbacks, such as complex protein preparation processes, high costs, structural differences from natural antigens, and poor allergen blocking efficacy. For example, Chinese patent CN114437211A discloses a method for preparing egg yolk antibodies based on the feline allergen Fel d1, using Feld1 protein prepared through an E. coli system for immunization. However, natural Fel d1 exhibits glycosylation modification, which is absent in the E. coli expression system. Therefore, the prepared Feld1 protein differs from the natural protein, affecting the activity of the corresponding egg yolk antibody (IgY). Chinese patent CN117003848A discloses the expression, purification, and combined application of the major feline allergen proteins Feld1, Feld4, and Feld7. Immunization with a mixture of these three proteins to prepare IgY, administered at 2 mg IgY / kg body weight for 80 consecutive days, only resulted in a 50% decrease in the content of feline salivary allergen proteins. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention provides a feline allergen fusion protein, an mRNA immunomodulator, and their applications. The feline allergen fusion protein provided by this invention enables the rapid design and synthesis of mRNA immunomodulators, allows for precise control of feline allergen fusion protein expression in poultry, resulting in a more sustained immune response. The prepared IgY antibody can effectively block allergen proteins in feline oral saliva.

[0022] To more clearly illustrate the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention or the prior art, the accompanying drawings used in the embodiments will be briefly described below.
[0023] Figure 1 This is an agarose gel electrophoresis image of the purified mRNA. Detailed Implementation
[0024] This invention provides a feline allergen fusion protein, the amino acid sequence of which is shown in SEQ ID NO.11.
[0025] The feline allergen fusion protein provided by this invention is created by studying the structure and function of Fel d2 and Fel d4 proteins, screening out key segments with strong sensitizing properties, and fusing these key segments with the full-length Fel d1 protein to construct a novel fusion protein. This fusion protein can simultaneously cover the major sensitizing epitopes of Fel d1, Fel d2, and Fel d4, and can more comprehensively block the sensitizing effect of feline allergens.
[0026] This invention provides a first nucleic acid molecule encoding the feline allergen fusion protein described in the above-described technical solution, the nucleotide sequence of which is shown in SEQ ID NO.12. The first nucleic acid molecule provided by this invention is a nucleic acid molecule encoding the feline allergen fusion protein described in the above-described technical solution, obtained by codon optimization of poultry (especially chickens), which can improve the translation efficiency and stability of mRNA in vivo.
[0027] This invention provides a second nucleic acid molecule for preparing mRNA immunomodulators, comprising a T7 promoter sequence and the first nucleic acid molecule described in the above-described technical solution. As one embodiment, the nucleotide sequence of the second nucleic acid molecule is shown in SEQ ID NO. 13.
[0028] The second nucleic acid molecule provided by this invention is an optimized design based on the first nucleic acid molecule, including: adding a suitable cap structure (such as m7GpppN) to the 5' end of the mRNA and adding a poly(A) tail to the 3' end to enhance the stability of the mRNA and the translation initiation efficiency. The secondary structure of the mRNA is also optimized to reduce the possible formation of stable secondary structures, thereby improving its translation activity. It can precisely control the expression of cat allergen fusion protein in avian animals.
[0029] This invention provides an mRNA immunomodulator, which is prepared by in vitro transcription of the nucleic acid molecules described in the above technical solution.
[0030] The mRNA immunomodulator provided by this invention can be injected into the body (e.g., in birds, to obtain IgY antibodies) via appropriate immunization routes (such as intramuscular injection, subcutaneous injection, etc.). After the mRNA is taken up by cells in the body, the fusion protein is synthesized using the intracellular translation system. The fusion protein acts as an antigen to stimulate the body's immune system, inducing the production of specific antibodies (IgY) against Fel d1, Fel d2, and Fel d4.
[0031] The mRNA immunomodulator provided by this invention has the following advantages:
[0032] 1) Simple preparation: mRNA can be quickly prepared by chemical synthesis or in vitro transcription without the need for complex protein expression and purification processes, which greatly shortens the research and development cycle and reduces production costs.
[0033] 2) Uniform immunogenicity: The proteins produced by mRNA immunization are naturally synthesized in the body. Their post-translational modifications and folding patterns are more similar to those of natural proteins, resulting in more uniform immunogenicity and the ability to induce a more consistent and effective immune response.
[0034] 3) Immune persistence: mRNA immunity can activate the body's cellular and humoral immunity, generating more lasting immune memory, thereby providing longer-term protection.
[0035] 4) Better antibody efficacy: The proteins produced by mRNA immunization have post-translational modifications and folding patterns that are more similar to those of natural proteins, resulting in antibodies with better blocking efficiency.
[0036] Based on the above advantages, the present invention provides the application of the feline allergen fusion protein described in the above technical solution, or the first nucleic acid molecule described in the above technical solution, or the second nucleic acid molecule described in the above technical solution, or the mRNA immunomodulator described in the above technical solution in one or more of the following:
[0037] 1) As a feline allergen immunogen;
[0038] 2) Prepare products that neutralize or reduce the content of feline allergens, wherein the feline allergens include one or more of Feld1, Feld2, and Feld4;
[0039] 3) Prepare an anti-cat allergy vaccine.
[0040] In one embodiment, the product includes feline allergen antibodies; the anti-feline allergy vaccine is an mRNA vaccine. In another embodiment, the feline allergen antibody is an egg yolk antibody.
[0041] Based on the above advantages, the present invention provides an mRNA vaccine, comprising an mRNA immunomodulator and liposomes encapsulating the mRNA immunomodulator; wherein the mRNA immunomodulator is the mRNA immunomodulator described in the above technical solution.
[0042] Based on the above advantages, the present invention provides a feline allergen egg yolk antibody, wherein the antibody is prepared by using the mRNA immunogens described in the above technical solutions or the mRNA vaccines described in the above technical solutions as immunogens.
[0043] This invention constructs a fusion protein by fusing key sensitizing segments of the full-length Fel d1 protein, Fel d2, and Fel d4 proteins, and designs its corresponding mRNA for immunization, successfully inducing the body to produce highly effective IgY antibodies that block feline allergens. Compared with traditional single-protein immunization or combined immunization of three proteins, the fusion protein mRNA immunization method of this invention has the advantages of simple preparation, uniform immunogenicity, good immunogenicity and long-lasting immunity, and high safety, providing a new and effective strategy for the prevention and treatment of feline allergies.
[0044] Experimental verification shows that the feline allergen egg yolk antibody provided by this invention can block allergens with maximum efficiency. Compared with the existing technology of using Fel d1, Fel d2, and Fel d4 proteins alone for immunization, the IgY generated by the fusion protein mRNA immunization provided by this invention has a better sensitization blocking effect. Furthermore, its sensitization blocking effect is comparable to that of IgY generated by using all three Fel d1, Fel d2, and Fel d4 proteins simultaneously in the existing technology. The fusion protein mRNA immunization method provided by this invention can more efficiently induce the body to produce antibodies with broad neutralizing activity, thereby more effectively preventing and treating feline allergies.

The freeze-dried egg yolk powder was fed for one week before baseline and continuously for six weeks during the experimental period. Saliva clinical samples from the 10 cats during the baseline and experimental periods (a total of seven weeks) were collected. The levels of Fel d1, Fel d2, and Fel d4 were detected using the Inbio Fel d1, Fel d4 ELISA kit and the conventional Fel d2 ELISA, respectively, and the results were statistically analyzed. The conventional Fel d2 ELISA method includes the following steps:
