Description

Regulation-control fusion protein and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of engineering immune cell modification, in particular to a regulatory fusion protein and application thereof.
Background
Tumor (tumor) refers to a new organism (neograwth) formed by local tissue cell proliferation of the body under the action of various tumorigenic factors, because the new organism is mostly in the form of space-occupying block-shaped protrusion, also called neoplasms (neoplasms). Among them, malignant tumors are easy to metastasize, and they are easy to recur after treatment and very difficult to cure in some special microenvironments.
Tumor Microenvironment (TME) consists of abnormal tumor vessels, extracellular matrix components, endothelial cells, pericytes, tumor-associated fibroblasts, smooth muscle cells, and immune cells. TME plays a crucial role in tumor development, growth and metastasis. Abnormal tumor vasculature, extracellular matrix components, and abundant stromal cells in the TME, affect the distribution and penetration of drugs in tumor tissues. Its immunosuppressive status is also one of the important causes of failure of various anti-tumors including immunotherapy. In recent years, much research has been devoted to improving therapeutic efficacy by targeting and remodeling TME.
Peptidoglycan recognition protein 2 (PGLYRP 2) is a bacterial peptidoglycan sensitive receptor that is expressed primarily at high levels in the liver and can also be induced to be expressed in keratinocytes and epithelial cells. PGLYRP2 has N-acetylmuramic acid-L-alanine amidase activity, acts on the connection between N-acetylmuramic acid and L-alanine residues, can hydrolyze PNG of bacteria and play a role in removing, and is also a key mechanism for the anti-inflammatory action of PGLYRP2 protein. Meanwhile, it has been shown that PGLYRP2 has a basic function in hepatocytes to inhibit tumor development by stimulating anti-tumor immune response, and PGLYRP2 binds to a gene untranslated region to regulate the expression of intracellular chemokine CCL5 and other proteins. The chemokine expression can recruit different immune cells such as NK cells, T cells and other immune cells to infiltrate into the tumor in the tumor microenvironment so as to overcome the inhibiting effect of the tumor microenvironment.
Pathogen antigens stimulate T cells by binding to the T Cell Receptor (TCR), activating a signaling cascade, promoting T cell proliferation and differentiation, and finally eliminating the pathogen. After TCR activation, tyrosine kinases are phosphorylated, thereby activating downstream signal transduction pathways. In response to activation, T cells reorganize their cytoskeleton, altering their metabolism and gene expression.
The three major pathways controlling gene expression (transcription) through the TCR are MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase), NF-kB (nuclear factor kB-B) and TCR-dependent MAPK pathways that activate Ras first, leading to activation of downstream Erk and formation of dimer activator protein-1 (ap-1). The AP-1 dimer, when bound to an AP-1response element (AP-1 response element, AP-1-RE), increases transcription and expression of T cell activation-associated genes. In addition, TCR can transmit signals through the LAT-SPL 76 complex, which in turn activates PKC0. Similarly, co-stimulatory factor CD28 may also signal PKC0 through PI3K and PDK 1. Activated PKC0 causes IKK activation. Further causing phosphorylation of IxB α, resulting in ubiquitination and degradation of IkB α, thereby translocating the NF-KB core, binding to NF-KB response elements (NF-KBRE), causing gene transcription of activated T cell Nuclear Factor (NFAT), a class of transcription factors associated with calcium signaling pathway, binding of activated NFAT to NFAT response elements (NFAT-RE), further regulating lymphocyte development, activation, and gene expression.
