Abstract
Description
Method for transforming fibroblasts and application thereof TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the field of biological medicine, and particularly relates to a method for transforming fibroblasts and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Fibroblasts are a kind of multifunctional cells, which play an important role in the normal physiological process of tissues and organs, especially in immunological diseases and tumor microenvironment. Fibroblasts regulate immune response, growth, invasion and metastasis of tumor cells by secreting immunomodulatory factors and extracellular matrix components. Especially in tumor-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), they play a key role in supporting tumor stroma, regulating tumor immunity and angiogenesis. Studies have shown that tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) are important areas for the aggregation of immune cells in tumors, which can recognize tumor antigens presented by antigen-presenting cells (APCs), produce effector T cells, memory B cells and plasma cells. These cells promote tumor cell apoptosis through antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis (ADCP) mechanisms, thereby reducing tumor burden. Effective induction of B cell activation to plasma cells in TLS in tumor tissue is of great significance to enhance anti-tumor immune response.
[0003] Studies have shown that tumor-associated fibroblasts and B cells exist in the tertiary lymphoid structure region, and the two are closely related in spatial distribution. Utilizing or transforming fibroblasts to stimulate B cell activation and enhance its antibody secretion function, and obtaining related antibodies for tumor treatment, will have important significance to promote anti-tumor immune response and improve patient survival rate. This strategy is expected to not only enhance tumor immune response, but also provide new methods and ideas for tumor treatment.

[0069] Example 4
[0070] VCAM1 + CXCL13 + TNFSF13B + The specific steps of MRC-5 inducing B cell chemotaxis are as follows:
[0071] (1) The B cells obtained in Example 2 were washed once with RPMI 1640 medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum, and cultured with a conditioned medium of RPMI 1640 containing 10% fetal bovine serum, CpG (1 μg / ml), and anti-IgM (1 μg / ml) to activate the B cells, and a B cell chemotaxis experiment was performed 48 hours later;
[0072] (2) The MRC-5 cells obtained in Example 3 were resuspended in RPMI 1640 medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum at a density of 2×10 5 cells / ml;
[0073] (3) 700 μl of the MRC-5 cell suspension was added to a 24-well plate, and after 24 hours of culture, the cell supernatant was collected and centrifuged, and 600 μl of the supernatant was added to the lower chamber of a transwell chamber;
[0074] (4) One hour before the chemotaxis experiment, neutralizing antibodies containing or not containing 4 μg / ml of anti-human CXCL13 were added to the medium in the lower chamber;
[0075] (5) The activated B cells described above for 48 hours were collected, resuspended in RPMI 1640 medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum at a density of 1×10 7 cells / ml, and 100 μl of the cell suspension was added to the upper chamber of a transwell chamber;

[0077] Figure 2 shows that CXCL13 in VCAM1 - CXCL13 - TNFSF13B - MRC-5 cells (control group) and VCAM1 + CXCL13+ TNFSF13B + Relative mRNA levels in MRC-5 cells (overexpression group) (left panel; n=3).

[0078] As shown in Figure 2, VCAM1 + CXCL13 + TNFSF13B + MRC-5 (overexpression group) significantly enhanced the ability of B cells to migrate towards MRC-5, while the use of CXCL13 neutralizing antibody weakened the effect of VCAM1 + CXCL13 + TNFSF13B + The enhancement of B cell migration ability by MRC-5 indicates that VCAM1 + CXCL13 + TNFSF13B + MRC-5 has the effect of promoting B cells to migrate towards fibroblasts MRC-5.
[0079] Example 5
[0080] VCAM1 + CXCL13 + TNFSF13B + The technique of MRC-5 inducing B cell adhesion is as follows:
[0081] (1) One day in advance, MRC-5 cells obtained in Example 3 were respectively plated in 96-well plates at 1 x 10 4 cells / well, and the medium containing or not containing 30 μg / ml neutralizing antibody against VCAM1 was replaced 1 hour before the adhesion experiment;
[0082] (2) B cells obtained in Example 2 were resuspended in RPMI 1640 medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum at a density of 6 x 10 4 cells / 100 μl;
[0083] (3) Aspirate the MRC-5 cell culture medium, add 100 μl of B cell suspension, and incubate for half an hour in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator.
[0084] (4) Take out the cells, pat the cell culture plate twice, then aspirate the culture medium and unadherent B cells, add 100 μl of diluted CCK8 solution to each well, and incubate for 2 hours in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator. Then, detect the OD value at 450 nm. In order to eliminate the difference in OD value caused by the difference in the number of MRC-5 cells, the OD value produced by B cells is equal to the OD value of co-culture of MRC-5 and B cells minus the OD value of MRC-5 cultured alone.
[0085] Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of the B cell adhesion experiment (left). The middle column chart is the VCAM1 expression level in VCAM1 - CXCL13 - TNFSF13B - MRC-5 cells (control group) and VCAM1 + CXCL13 + TNFSF13B + MRC-5 cells (overexpression group) (middle chart; n = 3), and the right column chart shows the adhesion ability of B cells to MRC-5 (right chart; n = 3). B cells were respectively co-cultured with VCAM1 - CXCL13 - TNFSF13B - MRC-5, VCAM1 + CXCL13 + TNFSF13B + MRC-5 or VCAM1 + CXCL13 + TNFSF13B + MRC-5 combined with VCAM1 neutralizing antibody co-culture. The relative number of B cells combined with MRC-5 (OD value) was quantitatively determined by CCK8 method.
[0086] As shown in Figure 3, compared with the control group, VCAM1 + CXCL13 + TNFSF13B + MRC-5 (overexpression group) can bind more B cells, and after using the neutralizing antibody of VCAM1 + CXCL13 + TNFSF13B + MRC-5 combined with B cells, indicating that VCAM1 + CXCL13 + TNFSF13B +MRC-5 can enhance the ability of B cells to adhere to fibroblast MRC-5.
[0087] Example 6
[0088] VCAM1 + CXCL13 + TNFSF13B + The specific steps of MRC-5 stimulating B cells to secrete IgG are as follows:
[0089] (1) One day in advance, MRC-5 obtained in Example 3 was plated in a 96-well plate at a density of 3000 cells / well, and the adhesion was completed.
[0090] (2) The B cells obtained in Example 2 were washed once with RPMI 1640 medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum; the B cells were resuspended in RPMI 1640 conditioned medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum, CpG (1 μg / ml) at a density of 3×10 5 4 cells / ml; in order to neutralize TNFSF13B, 20 μg / ml of anti-human TNFSF13B neutralizing antibody was added to the medium, and 200 μl of B cell suspension was added to the above fibroblast MRC-5 for co-culture;
[0091] (3) On the 3rd day of co-culture, 100 μl of cell supernatant was carefully collected without touching the cells, and 100 μl of RPMI 1640 conditioned medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum, CpG (1 μg / ml) was added for culture, and 20 μg / ml of anti-human TNFSF13B neutralizing antibody was still added in the neutralization group;
[0092] (4) On the 6th day, the cell supernatant was collected, centrifuged at 500g at room temperature for 10 min, and the speed was reduced to 4.
[0093] (5) The supernatant was taken and IgG was detected by ELISA.
[0094] Figure 4 shows a schematic diagram of the B cell co-culture experiment (left). The middle column chart is the relative mRNA level of TNFSF13B in VCAM1 - CXCL13 - TNFSF13B - MRC-5 cells (control group) and VCAM1 + CXCL13 + TNFSF13B + MRC-5 cells (overexpression group) (middle graph; n=3). The right column chart shows the relative mRNA level of B cells co-cultured with VCAM1 - CXCL13 - TNFSF13B -MRC-5, VCAM1 + CXCL13 + TNFSF13B + MRC-5 or VCAM1 + CXCL13 + TNFSF13B + IgG produced by co-culture of MRC-5 and TNFSF13B specific neutralizing antibody (right panel; n = 3). IgG levels in supernatant were detected by ELISA.
[0095] As shown in Figure 4, compared with the control group, VCAM1 + CXCL13 + TNFSF13B + MRC-5 (overexpression group) significantly promoted B cells to secrete IgG antibodies, while the use of TNFSF13B neutralizing antibody weakened VCAM1 + CXCL13 + TNFSF13B + The promotion of B cell IgG secretion by MRC-5 indicates that VCAM1 + CXCL13 + TNFSF13B + MRC-5 has the ability to promote B cells to secrete antibodies.
[0096] In summary, by overexpressing VCAM1, CXCL13 and TNFSF13B in fibroblasts, the ability of fibroblasts to chemotaxis, adhesion and antibody secretion of B cells can be significantly enhanced, thereby achieving the effect of anti-tumor, and ultimately improving the prognosis of patients.
