Definitions
- the present invention relates to a multivalent immunogenic composition for preventing human papillomavirus (HPV) related diseases or infections and uses thereof.
- HPV human papillomavirus
- Papilloma virus belongs to the family of papillomaviruses (Papillomaviridae) and can cause papilloma in humans, cattle, dogs, rabbits, etc. Its member human papillomavirus (Human Papillomavirus, HPV) is a non-enveloped DNA virus.
- the genome of the virus is a double-stranded closed-loop DNA with a size of about 7.2-8 kb and 8 open reading frames, which can be divided into three regions according to their functions: (1) early region (E), about 4.5 kb, encoding E1, E2 E4-E7 are 6 non-structural proteins related to virus replication, transcription and transformation; (2) Late region (L), about 2.5kb, encoding major capsid protein L1 and minor capsid protein L2; (3) long
- the regulatory region (LCR) located between the end of the L region and the beginning of the E region, is about 800-900 bp in length, does not encode any protein, but has DNA replication and expression regulatory elements.
- L1 and L2 proteins are synthesized in the middle and late stages of the HPV infection cycle.
- the L1 protein is the main capsid protein and has a molecular weight of 55-60 kDa.
- the L2 protein is a minor capsid protein.
- 72 L1 protein pentamers constitute the outer shell of icosahedral HPV virus particles (45-55nm in diameter), which wraps the closed-loop double-stranded DNA.
- the L2 protein is located inside the L1 protein (Structure of Small Virus-like Particles Assembled from the L1 Protein of Human Papillomavirus 16 Chen, X.S., R.L. Garcea, Mol. Cell. 5(3): 557-567, 2000).
- the ORF of L1 protein is the most conserved gene in PV genome and can be used to identify new PV types. If the complete genome is cloned, and the DNA sequence of the L1 ORF differs by more than 10% from the closest known PV type, it is considered to have isolated a new PV type. Differences between 2% and 10% homology are defined as different subtypes, and differences less than 2% are defined as different variants of the same subtype (E.-M.de V Amsterdam et al./Virology 324(2004) 17- 27).
- the newly synthesized L1 protein in the cytoplasm is transported to the terminally differentiated keratin cell nucleus. Together with the L2 protein, the copied HPV genomic DNA is packaged to form an infectious virus (Nelson, LM, et al. 2002. Nuclear import strategies of high risk HPV16 L1 major capsid protein. J.Biol.Chem.277:23958-23964). This indicates that the nuclear introduction of L1 protein plays a very important role in HPV infection and production.
- the ability of the virus to enter the nucleus is determined by the nuclear localization signal (NLS) at the C-terminal of the HPV L1 protein.
- NLS nuclear localization signal
- a feature of the nuclear localization signal is that it is rich in basic amino acids (Garcia-Bustos, J., et al. 1991. Nuclear protein localization. Biochimica et al. Biophysica Acta 1071:83-101).
- HPV-15 high-risk (HR) HPV types can cause cancer of the cervix, anus, penis, vagina, vulva, and oropharynx.
- HR-HPV types 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59, 68, 73 and 82) caused.
- HPV-16 accounts for about 95% of HPV-positive oropharyngeal carcinomas (OPCs).
- HPV-6 and HPV-11 cause most anogenital warts and respiratory papilloma, but they are rarely associated with cancer (Human Papillomavirus in Cervical Cancer and Oropharyngeal Cancer: One Cause, Two Diseases Tara A. Berman and John T. Schiller, PhD2 Cancer 2017; 123:2219-29).
- VLP virus-like particle
- VLP can induce neutralizing antibodies in vaccinated animals and protect laboratory animals from subsequent attacks by infectious viruses. Therefore, VLP seems to be an excellent candidate for papillomavirus vaccine (Structure of Small Virus-like Particles Assembled from the L1 Protein of Human Papillomavirus 16 Chen, XS, RL Garcea, Mol. Cell. 5(3): 557-567, 2000).
- Glaxo's It is a bivalent recombinant HPV vaccine. It contains the HPV 16 type recombinant L1 protein and the HPV 18 type recombinant L1 protein obtained by the recombinant baculovirus expression vector system in the insect cells of Trichoplusia ni.
- L1 protein self-assembles into virus-like particles, which are used to prevent cervical cancer caused by HPV types 16 and 18 in women aged 9-25, grade 2 or 3 cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and adenocarcinoma in situ, and grade 1 cervical cancer Intraepithelial neoplasia (carcinogenic) (https://www.fda.gov/downloads/BiologicsBloodVaccines/Vaccines/ApprovedProducts/UCM186981.pdf).
- HPV 16 and 18 are the cause of about 70% of cervical cancers, and the remaining 20% of cases are attributed to types 31, 33, 45, 52, and 58. It can prevent 90% of cervical cancers (https://www.fda.gov/BiologicsBloodVaccines/Vaccines/ApprovedProducts/ucm426445.htm).
- virus-like particles can be produced in large quantities.
- the more common systems for producing virus-like particles are mainly divided into eukaryotic expression systems and prokaryotic expression systems.
- eukaryotic expression systems include poxvirus expression system, insect baculovirus expression system, and yeast expression system.
- the HPV L1 protein expressed in the eukaryotic expression system has less natural conformation damage and can assemble spontaneously to form virus-like particles, but the yield is low.
- the prokaryotic expression system is mainly Escherichia coli expression system, with high yield but mostly in the form of inclusion bodies, which is not conducive to purification and the production process is complicated.
- HPV multivalent vaccines can be obtained to prevent HPV-related diseases or infections with a broad spectrum, including HPV-related diseases caused by HPV types that are not currently covered by commercial vaccines. infection.
