Definitions

  • the present invention belongs to the field of biomedicine, and specifically relates to an anti-CLL1 single domain antibody and an application thereof.
  • AML Acute myeloid leukemia
  • CLL1 immune targeted therapy targeting CLL1 is effective in treating AML.
  • CLL1 C-type lectin-like molecule 1
  • CLEC12A C-type lectin domain family 12 member A
  • CLL1 is a type II transmembrane glycoprotein that plays an important role in immune regulation as an inhibitory receptor.
  • CLL1 is present in myeloid cells in peripheral blood and bone marrow and in most AML cells. It is also expressed on most AML CD34 + CD38 - stem cells, but not on normal CD34 + CD38 - stem cells.
  • CLL1 has become a potential target for AML treatment and diagnosis due to its special expression pattern.
  • CLL1 is also expressed on myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) cells.
  • MDS myelodysplastic syndrome
  • CML chronic myeloid leukemia
  • Antibodies are effector immune molecules produced by B cells proliferating and differentiating into plasma cells after being specifically stimulated by B cell antigen epitopes. They mediate humoral immunity and are a type of immunoglobulin (Ig) that can specifically bind to antigens. Ig specifically recognizes and binds to the corresponding antigen epitope through the antigen binding groove composed of its V region CDR in a lock-key complementary relationship. The specific binding ability of antibodies to antigens makes them of great significance in disease diagnosis and immune prevention and treatment.
  • Antibody drugs composed of antibody substances (including whole antibody molecules and antibody fragments with therapeutic functions) are one of the important means of targeted therapy and have become the most promising and application-valuable hot area in the current biopharmaceutical industry.
  • Heavy chain antibody is a naturally occurring antibody type. It is a unique antibody type possessed by camelids or cartilaginous fish. Its antibody domain naturally lacks light chains and is composed of only two heavy chains.
  • the antigen recognition function of heavy chain antibodies is mainly determined by the variable region (VHH) of heavy chain antibodies. VHH alone can recognize antigens, so it is also called single-domain antibody (sdAb).
  • Single-domain antibodies lack antibody light chains and only have heavy chain variable regions. Because of their small molecular weight, they are also called nanobodies (Nanobody, Nb). The molecular weight of single-domain antibodies is only about 13-15KDa, with a diameter of about 2.5nm and a length of 4nm.
  • single-domain antibodies also have many unique properties, such as good stability, the ability to reach specific antigen epitopes, arbitrary combination of building blocks, and low production costs.
  • the conventional method of obtaining single-domain antibodies consists of many steps such as multiple immunization of camelids, isolation of B lymphocytes, amplification of VHH regions, construction and screening of display libraries. With the development of synthetic biology, it has become possible to construct a high-quality, randomized, large-capacity single-domain antibody library based on total synthesis.
  • VHH single-domain antibodies have been widely used in miniaturized genetic engineering antibody research, new drug development, and disease diagnosis and treatment due to their advantages such as stable structure, small molecule, good solubility, tolerance to various adverse environments, good formulation stability, easy recombinant expression, and easy humanization.

Description

抗CLL1单域抗体及其应用 技术领域
本发明属于生物医药领域,具体涉及抗CLL1单域抗体及其应用。
背景技术
急性髓细胞白血病(Acute Myeloid Leukemia,AML)是一种髓系造血干/祖细胞恶性疾病,长期以来,一直采用蒽环类和阿糖胞苷化疗来治疗轻度患者,使用造血干细胞移植来治疗中、高危患者。急性髓细胞白血病的异质性导致目前对于AML患者的治疗仍是一种挑战。近年来,研究人员发现,以CLL1为靶点的免疫靶向疗法治疗AML的效果显著。C型凝集素样分子1(C-type lectin-like molecule 1,CLL1)也称为C型凝集素结构域家族12成员A(C-type lectin domain family 12 member A,CLEC12A),是一种Ⅱ型跨膜糖蛋白,作为抑制性受体在免疫调节中发挥重要作用。CLL1存在于外周血和骨髓的髓系细胞以及大部分AML细胞中,同时表达于多数AML的CD34 +CD38 -干细胞上,正常人的CD34 +CD38 -干细胞则不表达,CLL1因其特殊的表达模式成为AML治疗和诊断的潜在靶点。此外,CLL1还在骨髓增生异常综合征(Myelodysplastic Syndromes,MDS)和慢性髓细胞白血病(Chronic Myeloid Leukemia,CML,慢性粒细胞白血病)细胞上表达。
抗体(Antibody,Ab)是B细胞被B细胞抗原表位特异性刺激后增殖分化为浆细胞所产生的效应免疫分子,介导体液免疫,是一类能与抗原特异性结合的免疫球蛋白(Immunoglobulin,Ig)。Ig通过其V区CDR所组成的抗原结合槽与相应抗原表位以锁-匙(lock-key)互补关系进行特异性识别与结合。抗体同抗原的特异性结合能力使其在疾病诊断和免疫防治中具有重要意义。由抗体物质(包括具有治疗功能的全抗体分子和抗体片段)组成的抗体药物是靶向治疗的重要手段之一,已经成为目前生物医药产业最有前景和应用价值的热点领域。
重链抗体(Heavy chain antibody,HcAb)是天然存在的一种抗体类型,是骆驼科动物或软骨鱼类所具有的独特抗体类型,其抗体结构域天然缺失轻链,只由两条重链组成。重链抗体的抗原识别功能主要由重链抗体的可变区(VHH)决定。单独的VHH即可以识别抗原,因此其又被称为单域抗体(Single-domain antibody,sdAb)。单域抗体缺失抗体轻链,只有重链可变区,因其分子量小,也被称为纳米抗体(Nanobody,Nb)。单域抗体的分子量只有约13-15KDa,直径约为2.5nm,长4nm,是迄今为止最小的具有抗原结合功能的抗体片段,其与抗原结合的能力及其稳定性同完全抗体基本一致或具有更高的特异性抗原亲和力。与传统抗体相比,单域抗体还具有许多独特的性质,比如稳定性好、可抵达特殊抗原表位、可砌块模式任意组合、生产成本低等。获得单域抗体的常规方法由多次免疫骆驼科动物、B淋巴细胞分离、VHH区扩增、展示文库构建和 筛选等众多步骤构成。随着合成生物学的发展,构建基于全合成的高质量随机化大容量单域抗体库成为可能。目前,VHH单域抗体因其结构稳定、分子小、溶解性好、耐受各类不良环境、制剂稳定性好、易于重组表达、易于人源化等优点,已经被广泛使用在小型化基因工程抗体研究、新药开发以及疾病的诊断治疗上。单域抗体的研究和开发在药物应用和临床诊断等领域具有十分广阔的前景和重要的意义。

上述单域抗体为特异性结合CLL1蛋白的单域抗体。
5.2、抗CLL1单域抗体的表达和纯化
采用真核表达载体pcDNA3.1来表达抗CLL1单域抗体(CLL1-VHH-16)。
5.2.1、重组载体的构建
为了便于纯化,在单域抗体CLL1-VHH-16的编码基因(SEQ ID No.2)3'末端添加人源IgG1Fc基因(hFc基因,核苷酸序列为SEQ ID No.3,其编码的氨基酸序列为SEQ ID No.4),得到CLL1-VHH-16-hFc融合基因,然后将该融合基因的5’端起始密码子前加入BamHI酶切位点,3’端终止密码子后加入EcoRI酶切位点,将其克隆至真核表达载体pcDNA3.1的BamHI和EcoRI识别位点之间,得到表达C端融合hFc基因的单域抗体CLL1-VHH-16的重组真核表达载体pcDNA3.1-CLL1-VHH-16-hFc。
5.2.2、抗CLL1单域抗体的表达
将步骤5.2.1中得到的真核表达载体pcDNA3.1-CLL1-VHH-16-hFc采用常规电转的方法转染至HEK293细胞中进行表达。
5.2.3、抗CLL1单域抗体的纯化
Protein A具有和IgG的Fc片段结合的活性,因此采用Protein A柱纯化HEK293细胞表达的抗CLL1单域抗体(常规纯化步骤)。
最终制备得到纯化后的融合了hFc基因的抗CLL1单域抗体(CLL1-VHH-16-hFc)。
实施例2、抗CLL1单域抗体的功能鉴定
1、抗原抗体亲和力常数测定
待测抗体:步骤5.2.3中制备的融合了hFc基因的抗CLL1单域抗体(CLL1-VHH-16-hFc)。
(1)将待测抗体CLL1-VHH-16-hFc用Pierce TM NHS-Fluorescein Antibody Labeling Kit标记获得FITC直标抗体FITC-CLL1-VHH-16-hFc,用于流式检测。
(2)将CLL1阳性细胞K562-CLL1和U937细胞重悬至密度为2×10 6个细胞/mL,取100μL分别置于96孔V底板中离心弃上清并收集细胞(K562细胞做为CLL1阴性细胞对照);
(3)将40μL不同梯度稀释(具体分组见表3)的FITC-CLL1-VHH-16-hFc同上述细胞混合,室温避光孵育10min;
表3、CLL1-VHH-16-hFc抗体亲和力试验分组
Figure PCTCN2022143892-appb-000010
(4)200μL FACS buffer离心清洗2次,用200μL FACS buffer重悬后立即进行流式检测平均荧光强度(MFI);
(5)根据公式计算CLL1 VHH抗体与靶细胞结合的平衡解离常数(KD)来判定亲和力的强弱。其中KD值越小,则亲和力越强。
1/(MFI-Con)=1/Fmax+(KD/Fmax)(1/[CLL1-scfv IgG Fc])。
其中,MFI-Con代表相对平均荧光强度,系实验组平均荧光强度减去背景平均荧光强度的值;CLL1-scfv IgG Fc代表抗体使用量(单位:ng)。
以抗体使用量的倒数为横坐标、相对平均荧光强度的倒数为纵坐标绘制标准曲线,得到线性回归方程。根据线性回归方程计算,标准曲线与纵坐标的交点为1/Fmax,KD即为直线斜率乘以Fmax。
计算所得的平衡解离常数见表4:

(3)用FACS buffer清洗,离心;
(4)加入20μL稀释的FITC-CLL1-VHH-16-hFc抗体(1:400)混匀,室温孵育10min;
(5)加入FACS buffer离心洗去抗体,再加入buffer重悬,用流式细胞仪进行检测。
流式结果显示:FITC-CLL1-VHH-16-hFc抗体能够特异性结合肿瘤细胞上表达的CLL1抗原分子(图3)。

使用FITC标记CLL1-VHH-16抗体(FITC-CLL1-VHH-16-hFc)检测3例急性髓细胞白血病(AML)患者的骨髓细胞,同Biolegend公司APC标记的抗人CLL1特异性抗体(货号143405)进行比较,流式分析步骤如下:

(6)Biolegend公司APC标记的抗人CLL1特异性抗体(CLL1-APC)作为对比,步骤同上。
结果显示:本发明的FITC-CLL1-VHH-16-hFc抗体与Biolegend公司APC标记的抗人CLL1特异性抗体两者具有相似的表达图谱(图4),说明本发明的单域抗体CLL1-VHH-16能够特异性识别AML肿瘤细胞表达的CLL1。
