This significantly improves the efficiency of T cell transduction, the killing efficiency of CAR-T cell preparation, and the efficiency of activating and / or stimulating T cell proliferation.
[0169] In this article:
[0170] "Activation molecule": as used herein, "activation molecule" includes, but is not limited to, molecules that can bind to or interact directly or indirectly with T cells, thereby triggering T cell activation. Examples include TCR-CD3 binding molecules that can bind to the TCR-CD3 complex, CD3, and TCR, providing an initial signal for T cell activation, including, but not limited to, anti-CD3 antibodies or their antigen-binding fragments. In some embodiments of the present invention, exemplarily, "activation molecule" includes, but is not limited to, the binding domains of OKT3, 15E8, TGN1412, CD28.2, 10F3, UCHT1, YTH12.5, or TR66.
[0171] "Costimulatory molecule," as used in this article, refers to a molecule that can provide a costimulatory signal for T cell activation; complete T cell activation usually requires the participation of costimulatory molecules.
[0172] For example, “co-stimulatory molecules” include, but are not limited to, CD80, CD86, CD40L, GITRL, LTalpha, LIGHT, OX40L, 41BBL, ICOSL, CD27, CD30L, MICA and MICB, or their extracellular domains, functional fragments, epitopes, and anti-CD28 antibodies or their antigen-binding fragments.
[0173] CD137 (also known as 4-1BB) is a member of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor family. CD137 can be expressed by activated T cells, but it is also expressed by CD8+ receptors. + The expression level on T cells is greater than that on CD4. + CD137 expression levels on T cells. Furthermore, CD137 expression is observed on dendritic cells, follicular dendritic cells, natural killer cells, granulocytes, and vascular wall cells at sites of inflammation. The most representative activity of CD137 is its co-stimulatory activity on activated T cells. Cross-linking of CD137 enhances T cell proliferation, IL-2 secretion, survival, and cytolysis.
[0174] "Lymphocyte": The term "lymphocyte" refers to immune cells of lymphoid origin, which are cells that exhibit at least one phenotypic characteristic of a lymphocyte or its precursor or progenitor cells, distinguishing the cells from cells of the erythrocyte or myeloid lineage. The term "lymphocyte" includes T cells, B cells, and natural killer (NK) cells.
[0175] "Complement": The complement system is composed of a series of proteins and is part of the innate immune system. Complement is present in the serum, tissue fluid, and cell membrane surface of normal humans and animals. After activation, it possesses enzymatic activity and can undergo complex cascade reactions. The complement system is initiated by a series of enzymes cleaving each other, ultimately forming a pore-like membrane attack complex on the target microorganism, causing the microorganism to rupture and die. Complement components can be activated by antigen-antibody complexes or antibodies, clearing immune complexes through cytolysis, opsonization, phagocytosis, and mediating inflammatory responses, exhibiting corresponding biological functions. Complement is widely involved in the body's defense responses against microbial infections and immune regulation, and also mediates immunopathological damage responses, making it an important effector system and effector mechanism system in the body. Viral glycoproteins such as VSV-G may be recognized and inactivated by complement after entering serum; therefore, improving the ability of viral glycoproteins to antagonize complement inactivation can effectively improve the survival rate of viral glycoproteins such as VSV-G in the body or blood of subjects.
[0176] "Viral envelope": This refers to the outermost layer of many viruses (HURLBERT, RONALD E., Fundamentals of Microbiology, 102. Chapter #11: Viruses. Archived from the original on 2008-11-10.). As viruses travel through host cells, the viral envelope protects their genetic material throughout their life cycle. Not all viruses have a viral envelope. Many human pathogenic viruses are encased in a lipid bilayer; they infect target cells by fusing their viral envelope with the cell membrane. Viruses with a viral envelope include retroviruses, among others.
[0177] Lentivirals are complex retroviruses that contain not only the common retroviral genes Gag, Pol, and env, but also other genes with regulatory or structural functions. This high complexity allows viruses to regulate their life cycle, as they do during latent infection. Lentivirals belong to the genus of retroviruses that can infect both dividing and non-dividing cells. Examples of lentiviruses include, but are not limited to, HIV (human immunodeficiency virus, including HIV type I and HIV type II), equine infectious anemia virus, feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV), bovine immunodeficiency virus (BIV), and simultaneous immunodeficiency virus (SIV).
[0178] Lentiviral vectors are vectors derived from lentiviruses that contain one or more lentiviral packaging proteins and / or lentiviral proteins essential for the expression of one or more genes carried by the vector. They are produced by repeatedly attenuating the virulence genes of lentiviruses such as HIV through gene editing, genetic engineering, and other techniques. For example, deleting genes such as env, vif, vpr, vpu, and nef makes the lentiviral vector biosafety-compliant.
[0179] Lentiviral vectors or retroviral vectors are generally packaged in packaging cells using lentiviral vector packaging systems or retroviral vector packaging systems. For an exemplary procedure and method for packaging lentiviral vectors, see Merten OW, et al., Production of lentiviral vectors. Mol Ther Methods Clin Dev. (2016), 3, 16017, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
[0180] Commonly used pseudotyped lentiviral vectors include the so-called third-generation lentiviral vector packaging system. This system typically includes four types of plasmids: a transfer plasmid containing the gene of interest (GOI), such as a transgenic transfer plasmid, the GagPol plasmid, and the Rev plasmid; and an envelope plasmid containing viral glycoprotein genes such as VSV-G or its variants, or Cocal-G or its variants.
[0181] A transfer vector contains the lentiviral vector backbone genome and transgenes. Transfer vectors typically have one or more transgenes flanked by long terminal repeats (LTRs), which facilitate the integration of the transgenes contained in the transfer vector into the host genome. LTRs are responsible for the reverse transcription and integration processes of the viral genome. Through these sequences, lentiviruses can integrate transgenes into the host cell's genome. For safety reasons, transfer vectors are usually designed so that the resulting viral vector cannot self-replicate. For example, transfer vectors lack the genetic elements necessary to produce infectious lentiviral particles in the host cell. Furthermore, transfer plasmids can be engineered to lack the 3'LTR, thereby enabling the virus to "self-inactivate." Compared to traditional second-generation pseudotyped lentiviral vector packaging systems (typically containing a single packaging plasmid and a separate envelope plasmid encoding nucleic acids for Gag, Pol, Rev, and Tat), the TAT gene can be eliminated from third-generation pseudotyped lentiviral vector packaging systems by adding a chimeric 5'LTR fused to a heterologous promoter (e.g., CMV or RSV promoter) to the transfer plasmid. Transfer plasmids typically contain a Ψ sequence (Psi sequence, also known as the Ψ packaging signal) downstream of the 5'LTR, responsible for packaging the transgenic RNA into the viral particle. The Ψ sequence ensures that only transgenic RNA is packaged into the viral particle. Optionally, transfer plasmids may also include an Internal Ribosome Entry Site ("IRES") to allow entry of a single mRNA into the viral particle. Simultaneous translation of two or more open reading frames (ORFs) enables multi-gene expression. Some transfer plasmids, such as the lentiviral master plasmid / transfer plasmid used in some embodiments of the present invention, may also contain selection marker genes, such as antibiotic resistance genes (e.g., PuroR, encoding puromycin resistance) or fluorescent protein genes (e.g., GFP), for screening or tracking transduced cells.
[0182] For details on transfer plasmids in lentiviral vector packaging systems, please refer to DuLl, et al., J.Virol.72:8463-71 (1998); Miyoshi, et al., J.Virol.72:8150-57 (1998).
[0183] Third-generation lentiviral vector systems typically include three packaging plasmids: the GagPol plasmid, the Rev plasmid, and the envelope plasmid. The envelope plasmid usually carries viral glycoprotein genes; wild-type VSV-G or Cocal-G are commonly used viral glycoproteins. The viral glycoprotein genes are operatively linked to a promoter, typically a CMV promoter, to initiate transcription of the viral glycoprotein genes. Third-generation lentiviral vector systems also include two packaging plasmids: one containing genes encoding the Gag and Pol proteins (GagPol packaging plasmid), and another containing genes encoding the Rev protein (Rev plasmid) as a further safety feature, representing an improvement over the single packaging plasmid in so-called second-generation packaging systems. The Gag gene encodes a Gag polyprotein precursor containing lentiviral structural proteins, including a matrix, capsid, and nucleocapsid; the Pol gene encodes a Pol polyprotein precursor providing the lentiviral enzyme functions necessary for replication, including a protease, reverse transcriptase, and integrase; the Rev gene encodes the Rev protein, which binds Rev Response Elements (RREs) to allow nuclear export of unspliced and single-spliced HIV RNA during viral replication. The Gag and Pol polyprotein precursors are cleaved during viral particle preparation. The Rev protein binds to the Rev Response Element (RRE) sequence on the viral RNA, facilitating the transport of incompletely cleaved viral RNA from the nucleus to the cytoplasm through interaction with the host cell's nuclear export mechanism. This unspliced RNA can be translated into viral structural proteins and enzymes in the cytoplasm, or assembled into new viral particles. Exemplary packaging plasmids include, but are not limited to, pMD2.G, pRSV-rev, pMDLG-pRRE, and pRRL-GOI.
[0184] Lentiviral vectors and lentiviral vector backbone genomes are known in the art; see Naldini, et al., (1996) Science 272: 263-7; Zufferey, et al., (1998) J.Virol. 72: 9873-9880; DuLl, et al., (1998) J.Virol. 72: 8463-8471; U.S. Patent Nos. 6,013,516 and 5,994,136, each of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
[0185] Compared to pseudolentiviral vector packaging systems, pseudoretroviral vector packaging systems typically do not contain Rev plasmids. This is because the genomic RNA of retroviruses such as Moloney Murine Leukemia Virus (MMLV) can be naturally transported from the nucleus to the cytoplasm for translation and assembly, thus eliminating the need for specific nuclear export mechanisms such as Rev proteins. Pseudoretroviral vector packaging systems typically contain one transfer plasmid and two packaging plasmids: an envelope plasmid and a GagPol packaging plasmid. The transgenic sequence contained in the transfer plasmid is flanked by long terminal repeats (LTRs), which facilitate the integration of the transfer plasmid sequence into the host genome. Generally, during viral transduction, sequences between and including LTRs are integrated into the host genome. The backbone genomes of MMLV or Murine Stem Cell Virus (MSCV), containing their respective LTRs, are often used to construct transfer plasmids in pseudoretroviral vector packaging systems. GagPol packaging plasmids contain the Gag and Pol genes; envelope plasmids typically contain polynucleotides encoding viral glycoproteins, such as VSV-G or Cocal-G.
[0186] In some embodiments, production cells are transfected with a defined ratio of transfer plasmid, GagPol plasmid, envelope plasmid, and Rev plasmid. In some embodiments, the ratio of each plasmid is determined by mass, and is not particularly limited as long as it can package a biologically active non-integrating lentiviral vector. In some embodiments, the mass of each of the transfer plasmid and GagPol plasmid is higher than the mass of each of the envelope plasmid and Rev plasmid. In some embodiments, the defined ratio of transfer plasmid, GagPol plasmid, envelope plasmid, and Rev plasmid is from about 1:1:1:1 to about 9:4:2:2; in some embodiments of the invention, the envelope plasmid may contain nucleic acid encoding a target molecule.
[0187] In some embodiments, the envelope plasmid contains a tandem expression cassette encoding VSV-G or a variant thereof or Cocal-G or a variant thereof and a target molecule as disclosed herein. In a specific embodiment, the tandem expression cassette contained in the envelope plasmid contains a polynucleotide encoding a first signal peptide, a polynucleotide encoding a target molecule, a polynucleotide encoding one of an internal ribosome entry site (IRES), a furin cleavage site, or a viral 2A peptide, a polynucleotide encoding a second signal peptide, and a polynucleotide encoding VSV-G or a variant thereof or Cocal-G or a variant thereof. In some embodiments, the polynucleotide encoding VSV-G or a variant thereof or Cocal-G or a variant thereof is located at the 5' end of the polynucleotide encoding the target molecule. In other embodiments, the polynucleotide encoding VSV-G or a variant thereof or Cocal-G or a variant thereof is located at the 3' end of the polynucleotide encoding the target molecule. The polynucleotide encoding the target molecule and the polynucleotide encoding VSV-G or a variant thereof or Cocal-G or a variant thereof are separated in the tandem cassette by a polynucleotide encoding IRES, a furin cleavage site, or a viral 2A peptide, which allows co-expression of both proteins by a single mRNA. In some implementations, the viral 2A peptide is porcine cheshvirus-1 (P2A), Thosea asigna virus (T2A), equine rhinovirus (E2A), foot-and-mouth disease virus (F2A), or a variant thereof.
[0188] "Viral glycoproteins" are glycoproteins that coat the outer layer of a virus. They play an important role in viral adsorption and penetration into host cells, pathogenicity, downregulation of host surface protein expression, and increased viral packaging and budding processes.
