- TGF-ß superfamily Many growth factors from the TGF-ß superfamily are relevant for a wide range of medical treatment methods and applications, which particularly concern wound healing and tissue restoration.
- members of the TGF-ß superfamily cf. eg: Roberts, AB & Sporn, MB Handbook of Experimental Pharmacology 95 (1990) 419-472; Kingsley, DM, Genes & Development 8 (1994) 133-146 and the literature cited therein.
- Members include the TGF- ⁇ proteins, such as the TGF- ⁇ 1, TGF- ⁇ 2, TGF- ⁇ 3, TGF- ⁇ 4 and TGF- ⁇ 5, cf. for example: US Patent 5,284,763; EP 0376785; U.S. Patent 4,886,747; Madisen, L. et al.

- diseases associated with bone loss such as e.g. is caused by age, metabolic disorders or inflammatory
- CORRECTED SHEET (RULE 91) ISA / EP Processes that are treated specifically.
- One example is osteoporosis, in which there is insufficient new bone formation.
- Diseases such as osteodystrophia fibrosa generalisata, which is accompanied by irregular bone loss, or Paget's disease, which is associated with the dissolution of normal bone substance, or else osteoarthritis or osteoarthropathy can be treated with the compounds according to the invention.
- the compounds according to the invention are also suitable as preventive measures.
- Targeted local treatments are also possible in the case of damage to the cartilage and / or bone tissue such as, for example, bone fractures or sports injuries, particularly after the musculoskeletal system has been overloaded or after accidents.
- connections according to the invention also enable the fixation of two movable bone parts by their connection, such as the connection of two vertebrae via a newly formed bone bridge, which can be advantageous, for example, in the case of intervertebral disc problems.
- the connection also offers advantages for large carrier matrices such as those required for artificial limb elongation or in plastic surgery.
- the compounds according to the invention are also advantageous in dentistry, for example in jaw treatments and periodontal pants.
- An advantage of the compounds according to the invention is the possibility of specifically fixing locally applied cartilage or bone-inducing factors at their destination and reducing diffusion into adjacent tissue. This advantageously results in a significant reduction in the required doses. Furthermore, release of the compound according to the invention from an implanted carrier matrix defined above can be slowed down or prevented.
- the following shows an example of how additional amino acids can be attached to the N-terminus of the mature MP52.
- pairs of oligonucleotides which code for the desired amino acids are synthesized and cloned into the MP52 sequence after hybridization while observing the reading frame.
- the cloning took place in the plasmid pBP2MP52m, which was deposited on June 2, 1995 with the DSM (accession number: DSM 10029).
- This plasmid can be used for the expression of monomeric mature MP52 protein (amino acids 382 to 501 in FIG. 1) with methionine (MP52m) in E.coli.
- a more detailed description of the plasmid can be found in the patent PCT / EP96 / 03065.
- the plasmid pBP2MP52m was first restricted with Nde I (restriction site at the N-terminus within the start codon) and Msc I (internal MP52 restriction site).
- Nde I restriction site at the N-terminus within the start codon
- Msc I internal MP52 restriction site
- CCAGCGGCGCATGCGGACCGCGTTTACGCTGTTTCTTCA were (at one Final concentration of 0.1 nmol for each oligonucleotide per 1 H 2 O) hybridized by heating to 70 ° C. and slowly cooling to room temperature, so that the corresponding double-stranded DNA molecules with ends overhanging on one side of the Nde I interface are formed:
- the hybridized oligonucleotide pairs were ligated into the restricted plasmid described above according to standard methods known to the person skilled in the art. Clonings are detailed and can be reworked by a person skilled in the art, for example described in the Current Protocols in Molecular Biology (Ausubel et al., Greene Publishing Associates and Wiley-Interscience, Wiley & Sons, 1987-1996) or in Molecular Cloning (Sambrook et al., Second edition, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press 1989). It was confirmed by sequencing that the two new plasmids pBP2MP52mFusl and pBP2MP52mFus2 contain the sequences shown in FIGS. 4 and 6 for the fusion constructs.
- the corresponding amino acid sequences of the fusion proteins are shown in FIGS. 3 and 5.
- the fusion proteins MP52mFusl and MP52mFus2 contain the portion of the mature MP52 (amino acid 382 to 501 in FIG. 1) and the additional amino acids KKARKR and KKQRKRGPH at the N-terminus.
- MP52mFus2 differs from MP52mFusl in that it has an additional spacer (GPH) between the mature MP52 and the peptide KKZRKR with theoretically expected increased affinity for hydroxylapatite, Z being an A in the case of MP52mFusl and a Q in the case of MP52mFus2.
- This method can be used to attach any peptides to the N-terminus. For example, in the course of the experiments through the use of the oligonucleotide pair TATGGGTCGTGGCGATAGCGCTAGCGCGCCGCTGG and
- CCAGCGGCGCGCTAGCGCTATCGCCACGACCCA expresses a fusion protein which, in addition to the mature MP52 sequence (amino acid 382 to 501 in FIG. 1), contains the peptide GRGDSAS at the N-terminus and thus an RGD sequence.
- the expression, purification and refolding to dimeric active fusion proteins can in principle be carried out according to the same methods as already described for mature MP52 proteins (see patent application PCT / EP96 / 03065 and Japanese patent application Hei- 7 (95) -93664)).
- the expression was carried out by providing the T7 RNA polymerase in special bacterial strains which have integrated the gene for T7 RNA polymerase. Using the bacterial strain HMS174 (DE3) (Novagen) and BL21 (DE3) pLysS (Novagen) it was possible to overexpress MP52m and the fusion proteins by inducing the T7 RNA polymerase with IPTG according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- the proteins are all present in the bacteria as inclusion bodies, from which they can be isolated using standard methods.
- the bacterial cells were first centrifuged off and the cells were then lysed.
- the lysis was carried out by first resuspending the bacterial sediment in lysis buffer (250 mM NaCl, 0.5% NP40, 20 mM Tris pH 8.0, 1 mM DTT). After four to five freezes and thaws, an ultrasound treatment, which lowers the viscosity, was connected.
- lysis buffer 250 mM NaCl, 0.5% NP40, 20 mM Tris pH 8.0, 1 mM DTT.
- an ultrasound treatment which lowers the viscosity
- the lysis can also be achieved purely mechanically or enzymatically using buffers containing lysozyme.
- the inclusion bodies were then obtained by centrifugation (10 min, 10-20 ° C, 12000 xg).
- the degree of purity can be increased somewhat by washing the inclusion bodies repeatedly with lysis buffer, tris buffer (20 mM pH 8) with or without 0.5 M guanidinium hydrochloride or 1 M urea.
- the inclusion bodies were further purified using a sucrose gradient.
- the in lysis buffer the inclusion body located on approximately the same volume of a sucrose solution (10 mM Tris pH 8.0, 1 mM EDTA, 200 mM NaCl, 40% sucrose) and centrifuged (30 min, 4 ° C, 12000 xg). The sediments with the inclusion bodies were then washed extensively in Tris buffer (20 mM, pH 8) with ultrasound treatment.
- the inclusion bodies were resuspended in a guanidinium hydrochloride solution (6M guanidinium hydrochloride, 100 mM NaH 2 PO "adjusted to pH 8) (50 mg wet sediment / ml) and after addition of DTT to a final concentration of 100 mM for 2.5 Incubated for hours at room temperature. Insoluble components were separated by centrifugation (20 min, 15000 xg) and filtration (0.45 ⁇ m filter, Nalgene # 190-2545). The dissolved MP52m and fusion proteins were further purified using a reversed phase HPLC. A reversed phase column (Nucleosil 300-7C4 from Macherey-Nagel, Art.
- MP52m or MP52mFusl and MP52mFus2 show an apparent molecular weight of approx. 14 kD (theoretical molecular weight: 13.7 kD) or approx. 15 kD (theoretical molecular weight: 14.5 kD or 14, respectively) in SDS-polyacrylamide gels (15%). 8 kD) as shown in FIG. 7 after silver staining.
- the monomeric proteins expressed in E. coli and purified from inclusion bodies have to be folded back into dimeric proteins. This can be done according to the methods already described for the MP52m protein.
- the solubilization was preferably carried out over 2 hours at room temperature in solubilization buffer (6 M guanidinium hydrochloride, 50 mM Tris, 150 mM NaCl, 3 mM DTT pH 8.0) to a final concentration of 2.6 mg protein per ml Solubilizate was then made into renaturation buffer (1 M NaCl / 50 mM Tris / 5 mM EDTA / 33 mM CHAPS / 1 mM
- the fusion proteins such as the mature MP52m protein were placed on a column (Aquapore Octyl, 20 ⁇ m, 100 x 10 mm, Applied Biosystems) at 35% buffer B (buffer A: 0.1% TFA in water; buffer B: 90 % Acetonitrile, 0.1% TFA) at a flow rate of 3 ml / min.
- buffer B buffer A: 0.1% TFA in water
- buffer B 90 % Acetonitrile, 0.1% TFA
- the dimeric MP52 proteins elute before the monomeric proteins. Fractions with dimeric protein were combined, lyophilized and stored at -70 ° C.
- the dimeric MP52m runs at approximately 22 kD (theoretical molecular weight: 27.4 kD) and MP52mFusl or MP52mFus2 at approximately 23 or 24 kD (theoretical molecular weight: 28.9 kD or 29.6 kD) for a molecular weight marker (see Figure 7).
- the additional amino acids at the N-terminus show no significant influence on the refolding efficiency in the experiments.
- alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity By determining the alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity on R0B-C26 cells, as disclosed, for example, in WO 95/04819, it was shown that the dimeric fusion proteins are active despite the changed N-terminus, the activity being slightly reduced compared to MP52m .
- the proteins were applied to a column filled with hydroxyapatite and eluted in a potassium phosphate gradient. Proteins with higher affinity for hydroxyapatite should only elute at higher potassium phosphate concentrations.
- the column (Econo Pac-HTP cartridge, 5 ml, BioRad) was initially in buffer A (6th M urea, 0.01 M potassium phosphate pH 7.0). 100 ⁇ g of each protein were dissolved in 2.25 ml of buffer A and 2 ml were applied to the column.
- the protein labels were carried out using the FluoReporter Kit # F 6153 Oregon Green 488, (Molecular Probes / MoBiTec GmbH, Göttingen).
- osprovit hydroxylapatite ceramic, Ch.-B. 91 009, Feldmühle AG

- 5 ⁇ g MP52m or MP52mFusl in 50% (v / v) acetonitrile / PBS were added to each and mixed carefully.
- the frozen samples (-80 ° C) were then dried under sterile conditions using vacuum centrifugation.
- the samples were rehydrated with 20 ⁇ l PBS immediately before the implantation and implanted with variation of the implantation location according to the protocol.
- the muscle pockets were closed with silk 4x0 with single button seams.
- the final skin suture was made with Seralon 4x0. Explantation took place after the animals were killed on the 1st postoperative day.
- the histological specimens were produced using the thin-section technique.
- the preparations were fixed in 70% ethanol.
- the drainage took place in ascending order
- MP52m samples after 1 day, no fluorescence activity can be detected either on the surface or in the macropores of the interconnecting hydroxylapatite ceramic granules.
- the enlargement of the section shows homogeneous tissue and minor cracks due to artifacts in the area of the pores, but no evidence of marginal fluorescence activity.
- MP52mFusl samples After one day there is marginal fluorescence in the area of the macropores, which corresponds to the adherent fluorochrome-coated proteins. Pores in the central area are occasionally fluorescence-marked, while peripheral pores and the entire surface no longer have any fluorescence.
- FIG. 12 shows the chromatogram of the RP-HPLC of MP52 after modification with EDC / bisphosphonate.
- the comparison with unmodified MP52m shows that the modification of the signal of the relatively hydrophobic MP52m dimer has disappeared and signals appear in the hydrophilic region, as is to be expected for bisphosphonate-labeled MP52m.
