To provide a variant ICOS ligand (ICOSL) polypeptide.SOLUTION: Provided is a variant ICOSL polypeptide that comprises one or more amino acid modifications in an immunoglobulin superfamily domain of an ICOSL polypeptide, the variant ICOSL polypeptide being a truncated extracellular domain comprising: a contiguous sequence of amino acids comprising amino acids 1 to 112; and a C-terminal truncation of at least 25 amino acids, based on the ICOSL extracellular domain sequence represented by a specific sequence.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 13A

The invention discloses an immunomodulatory polypeptide and application thereof. The invention discovers that a peptide fragment KR5 obtained by enzymolysis of flammulina velutipes immunomodulatory protein FIP-fve and a part of homologous peptide fragments from different fungus sources both have better immunomodulatory characteristics, and the amino acid sequence of the peptide fragment KR5 is B-Y-J-YR. After the KR5 is subjected to reversed-sequence overturning and modification transformation, the immune activation effect of the obtained D-configuration polypeptide and modified polypeptide is unchanged compared with that of the KR5, and both the D-configuration polypeptide and the modified polypeptide are superior to that of the flammulina velutipes immunomodulatory protein FIP-fve. In a mouse CT26 colorectal cancer model, the rk5 can significantly inhibit tumor growth, and the therapeutic effect is equivalent to that of a PD-L1 antibody. The FIP active polypeptide provided by the invention provides a theoretical basis for exploring pharmacodynamic substances and action mechanisms of FIP, provides candidate drugs for tumor immunologic diagnosis and treatment, and has a good application prospect and a relatively high economic value.

The invention relates to an engineering probiotic oral nano capsule modified by a nano material as well as a preparation method and application of the engineering probiotic oral nano capsule. The engineering modification of probiotics comprises the steps of knocking out a clbA gene and overexpressing an Sj16 protein and a GbpA protein. The intestinal adhesion protein GbpA is expressed on the surface of the engineered escherichia coli, an ultrasonic response element is integrated, the immunomodulatory protein Sj16 can be controllably expressed under ultrasonic stimulation, the adhesion and colonization capacity of the engineered escherichia coli in the intestinal tract is enhanced through engineered modification, the immune balance of the intestinal mucosa is cooperatively regulated, and the immunomodulatory effect of the engineered escherichia coli is improved. The generation and secretion of pathogenic autoantibodies from intestinal tracts are obviously reduced. On the basis, the molybdenum-based monatomic nano-material is functionally modified by using an enteric polymer, and a uniform nano-material-polymer composite coating is formed on the modified probiotics by adopting an in-situ wrapping technology, so that the nano-material-polymer composite coating shows a remarkable effect in the aspect of treating the autoimmune nephritis and has an important clinical application value.
