抗人IgG Fc片段及Fab段单抗的鉴定及应用

本实验采用木瓜酶水解,SPA柱亲合层析等手段得到人IgGFc段及Fab段,以Sigma抗人IgGfFc段和抗人IgG Fab段单抗为标准品,鉴定了细胞库中抗人IgG系列的部分细胞株,得到特异性分泌抗人IgG Fc段和抗人IgG Fab段单抗的细胞各一株。 在上述实验基础上,用抗人IgG Fc及抗人IgG Fab单抗分别制备了Sepharose4B亲合层析柱,提纯了酶解人IgG Fc、Fab片段,经ELISA法鉴定,相互之间无交叉反应。同时用此方法制备了人抗HBe Fab片段,并将该片段进行了过氧化物酶标记,用来配制HBe ELISA诊断盒,证明其生物活性未受影响,而且消除了类风湿因子引起的HBe Ag假阳性现象。因抗HBe单抗来源困难,如采用HBe多抗制备ELISA试剂,本法将是提高质量的一个好方法。     

Differences between the catabolism and tumour distribution of intact monoclonal antibody (791T/36) and its Fab/c fragment in mice with tumour xenografts revealed by the use of a residualizing radiolabel (dilactitol-125I-tyramine) and autoradiography

Summary Radioiodine-labelled 791T/36 monoclonal antibody (mAb) and its Fab/c fragment, consisting of one Fab arm and the Fc portion, have identical whole-body survival curves in BALB/c mice (t1/2 = 3.75 days). Therefore, these two forms of this antibody provide a suitable model for studying the role of valency in the targeting efficiency of antibodies to tumours in vivo. 791/T36 antibody and its Fab/c fragment were labelled either by direct iodination using the iodogen method (¹²⁵I) or by dilactitol-¹²⁵I-tyramine (¹²⁵I-DLT), a residualizing label, which accumulates in the cells involved in degradation of the carrier protein. In tumour-bearing nude mice, the percentage of injected dose of mAb or Fab/c fragment reaching the specific 791T tumour was similar, and these proteins appeared to be catabolized at a similar rate in this tissue. mAb, but not the Fab/c fragment, was found to be very actively catabolized by the liver and spleen of tumour-bearing mice compared to control nude mice, this probably resulting from clearance of immune complexes. This effect was most pronounced when the mAb was labelled with¹²⁵I-DLT, the percentage of injected dose of mAb reaching the spleen and liver being higher than the percentage of injected dose reaching the tumour. This effect was not seen with the Fab/c fragment. Autoradiographic studies on tumour sections, which exhibit antigenic sites throughout the tumour mass, showed that the Fab/c fragment was already homogeneously distributed in the tumour 12 h after injection whereas the whole antibody was mainly localized at the periphery of the tumour. Those results suggest a binding site barrier effect. Overall, these results indicate that the highest valency and affinity may not be the optimal choice for mAb to be used for therapeutic purposes.

脂质体包裹阿霉素的体外抗肿瘤作用

 我们用超声法制备了内部包裹阿霉素,表面有抗人胃癌细胞M85的单克隆抗体3Hll或非相关抗体IgG的阿霉素靶向脂质体和阿霉素非靶向脂质体,研究了这些脂质体和游离阿霉素抑制靶细胞M85和非靶细胞HeLa细胞生长的能力。结果表明,一方面,与游离阿霉素或阿霉素非靶向脂质体相比,阿霉素靶向脂质体抑制M85细胞生长的能力提高了2—4倍,而在抑制非靶细胞HeLa细胞的生长方面,阿霉素靶向脂质体的效力还不如游离阿霉素或阿霉素非靶向脂质体。过量的游离单克隆抗体3Hll可以有效地抑制阿霉素靶向脂质体对M85细胞的细胞毒作用,而另一种单克隆抗体3G9则不能。空靶向和空非靶向脂质体对M85细胞生长均无影响。因此,靶向脂质体可以把包裹的抗癌药物专一地送给胃癌细胞,井杀伤它们。

Efficient production of bispecific IgG of different isotypes and species of origin in single mammalian cells

Bispecific IgG production in single host cells has been a much sought-after goal to support the clinical development of these complex molecules. Current routes to single cell production of bispecific IgG include engineering heavy chains for heterodimerization and redesign of Fab arms for selective pairing of cognate heavy and light chains. Here, we describe novel designs to facilitate selective Fab arm assembly in conjunction with previously described knobs-into-holes mutations for preferential heavy chain heterodimerization. The top Fab designs for selective pairing, namely variants v10 and v11, support near quantitative assembly of bispecific IgG in single cells for multiple different antibody pairs as judged by high-resolution mass spectrometry. Single-cell and in vitro-assembled bispecific IgG have comparable physical, in vitro biological and in vivo pharmacokinetics properties. Efficient single-cell production of bispecific IgG was demonstrated for human IgG₁, IgG₂ and IgG₄ thereby allowing the heavy chain isotype to be tailored for specific therapeutic applications. Additionally, a reverse chimeric bispecific IgG_2a with humanized variable domains and mouse constant domains was generated for preclinical proof-of-concept studies in mice. Efficient production of a bispecific IgG in stably transfected mammalian (CHO) cells was shown. Individual clones with stable titer and bispecific IgG composition for >120 days were readily identified. Such long-term cell line stability is needed for commercial manufacture of bispecific IgG. The single-cell bispecific IgG designs developed here may be broadly applicable to biotechnology research, including screening bispecific IgG panels, and to support clinical development.     

基于单个B细胞抗体基因扩增技术筛选马IgG1单克隆抗体*

在马的免疫学研究领域中,由于目前市场上缺乏商业化的马IgG单克隆抗体,使得对马的B细胞研究受到很大阻碍,IgG是B细胞受体(BCR)的重要构成成分,与B细胞分化成熟相关。为了获得马IgG特异性单克隆抗体,利用单个B细胞扩增技术进行抗体筛选。首先,将马IgG蛋白(EqIgG1-C)密码子优化后合成到真核表达载体pcDNA3.4上,纯化出抗原蛋白。随后,使用蛋白质免疫小鼠,分离脾细胞后利用流式细胞术分离特异性单个B细胞,扩增出抗体重链和轻链的可变区基因,用overlapping PCR方法扩增出线性化的完整抗体,并进行鉴定。结果从80个B细胞中获得了27株特异性重组单克隆抗体,并挑选出3株线性结合活性最强的抗体基因构建到表达载体上,共转染Expi293F^TM细胞后表达纯化,经过ELISA和Western blot验证,显示获得的抗体可以和EqIgG1-C蛋白有良好的结合作用。使用该方法可以省时高效的获得特异性抗体,为马的免疫学研究提供了重要研究工具,为鼠单克隆抗体筛选提供了技术拓展。     

Studies on thiol proteinase inhibitors in rat peripheral blood cells

The concentrations of two types of endogenous thiol proteinase inhibitors, TPI-alpha and TPI-beta, in rat peripheral blood cells were determined by sensitive immunoassay methods. The concentration of TPI-alpha was highest in neutrophils among the peripheral blood cells tested. On the contrary, the concentration of TPI-beta was highest in macrophages followed in order by neutrophils, lymphocytes and erythrocytes. The serum level of TPI-beta was 47 times that of TPI-alpha. Immunohistochemical studies showed that in rat liver, TPI-beta was localized in Kupfer cells, and that only little TPI-alpha was present in liver tissue.     

Discrete bathochromic shifts exhibited by fluorescein ligand bound to rabbit polyclonal anti-fluorescein Fab fragments

Eleven individual hyperimmune rabbit polyclonal anti-fluorescein Fab fragment preparations were resolved into heterogeneous subfractions based on differential dissociation times from a specific adsorbent. Four Fab subfractions (i.e., 0.1-, 1.0-, 10-, and 100-day elutions) that differed in affinity were characterized and classified according to the extent of the bathochromic shift in the absorption properties of antibody-bound fluorescein ligand. Absorption maxima of bound fluorescein were shifted in all cases to two distinct narrow ranges, namely, 505 to 507 nm or 518 to 520 nm relative to 491 nm for free fluorescein. There was no direct correlation between the two spectral shift populations and antibody affinity, fluorescence polarization, fluorescence quenching, or fluorescence lifetimes of bound ligand. Fluorescence emission maxima varied with the bathochromic shift range. Bound fluorescein ligand, with absorption maxima of 505 to 507 nm and 518 to 520 nm showed fluorescence emission maxima of 519 to 520 nm and 535 nm, respectively. The two spectral shift ranges differed by 14 to 15 nm and/or energies of 1.5 kcal mol^–1 relative to each other and to the absorption maximum for free fluorescein. Spectral effects on the antibody-bound ligand were discussed relative to solvent-water studies and the atomic structure of a high-affinity liganded anti-fluorescein active site.

Kinetic exclusion assay of monoclonal antibody affinity to the membrane protein Roundabout 1 displayed on baculovirus

The reliable assessment of monoclonal antibody (mAb) affinity against membrane proteins in vivo is a major issue in the development of cancer therapeutics. We describe here a simple and highly sensitive method for the evaluation of mAbs against membrane proteins by means of a kinetic exclusion assay (KinExA) in combination with our previously developed membrane protein display system using budded baculovirus (BV). In our BV display system, the membrane proteins are displayed on the viral surface in their native form. The BVs on which the liver cancer antigen Roundabout 1 (Robo1) was displayed were adsorbed onto magnetic beads without fixative (BV beads). The dissociation constant (K_d, ∼10⁻¹¹ M) that was measured on the Robo1 expressed BV beads correlated well with the value from a whole cell assay (the coefficient of determination, R² = 0.998) but not with the value for the soluble extracellular domains of Robo1 (R² = 0.834). These results suggest that the BV–KinExA method described here provides a suitably accurate K_d evaluation of mAbs against proteins on the cell surface.     

利用重组系统构建大容量噬菌体抗体库

噬菌体抗体库技术是获得人源抗体的重要方法,此文探讨大容量天然噬菌体抗体库在筛选人源抗体中的实际应用价值。从正常人外周血分离淋巴细胞,通过基因工程方法获得抗体基因并且构建到含有重组位点的载体pDF中获得初级噬菌体抗体库,初级库在重组系统中重组之后获得了容量为9×1010的天然Fab噬菌体抗体库,通过序列测定和重组蛋白筛选来对抗体库的质量进行初步鉴定。对随机挑取的96个克隆测序序列分析表明各种型别比例基本合适;用四种抗原筛选有明显的富集,并且获得了针对其中一种抗原的阳性抗体克隆。     

Lectin analysis of human immunoglobulin G N-glycan sialylation

The lectins Sambucus nigraagglutinin (SNA) and Ricinus communisagglutinin (RCA), specific for 2,6 linked sialylation, and terminal galactose respectively were used to study the occurrence, linkage and distribution of human immunoglobulin G (IgG) sialylation. SNA was shown to bind N-glycan 2,6-linked sialic acid only. Sialidase analysis confirmed that this is the dominant, if not exclusive linkage. Total IgG sialylation was estimated at 1.0[emsp4 ]g SA/mg IgG (or about 0.5 mole per mole) using a biochemical sialic acid assay. SNA displayed strong binding to the IgG Fab fragment in both its native and denatured state. In contrast, SNA failed to bind the IgG Fc fragment in its native form, but displayed strong binding after the Fc was denatured. This allowed the construction of quantitative assays capable of measuring both IgG Fab and Fc 2,6-sialylation without the need for enzymatic peptide digestion.     

Fab-based bispecific antibody formats with robust biophysical properties and biological activity

A myriad of innovative bispecific antibody (BsAb) platforms have been reported. Most require significant protein engineering to be viable from a development and manufacturing perspective. Single-chain variable fragments (scFvs) and diabodies that consist only of antibody variable domains have been used as building blocks for making BsAbs for decades. The drawback with Fv-only moieties is that they lack the native-like interactions with C_H1/C_L domains that make antibody Fab regions stable and soluble. Here, we utilize a redesigned Fab interface to explore 2 novel Fab-based BsAbs platforms. The redesigned Fab interface designs limit heavy and light chain mixing when 2 Fabs are co-expressed simultaneously, thus allowing the use of 2 different Fabs within a BsAb construct without the requirement of one or more scFvs. We describe the stability and activity of a HER2×HER2 IgG-Fab BsAb, and compare its biophysical and activity properties with those of an IgG-scFv that utilizes the variable domains of the same parental antibodies. We also generated an EGFR × CD3 tandem Fab protein with a similar format to a tandem scFv (otherwise known as a bispecific T cell engager or BiTE). We show that the Fab-based BsAbs have superior biophysical properties compared to the scFv-based BsAbs. Additionally, the Fab-based BsAbs do not simply recapitulate the activity of their scFv counterparts, but are shown to possess unique biological activity.

Monoclonal antibodies for the detection and quantitation of the endogenous plant growth regulator, abscisic acid

Monoclonal antibodies (mAB) have been produced which recognize the physiologically active 2-cis-(S-form of the endogenous plant growth regulator, abscisic acid (ABA). Cross-reaction with the ABA-catabolites, phaseic and dihydrophaseic acid, is negligible, and (R)-ABA, 2-trans-ABA, the ABA-conjugate, ABA-β-D-glucopyranosyl ester, as well as the putative ABA precursor, xanthoxin, are totally unreactive. In addition to being very specific, the mAB exhibit high affinites for 2-cis-(S)-ABA: the K values were 7.9 × 10⁹ l/mol and 3.7 × 10⁹ l/mol for antibodies from two different clones. By mAB-radioimmunoassay (RIA), 4 pg 2-cis-(S)-ABA (99.5% confidence level) can be detected. mAB-RIA can be used to quantitate ABA directly in unprocessed plant extracts.

重组抗体药物研究进展及应用

重组抗体药物的发展经历了鼠源单克隆抗体（McAb）、人 鼠嵌合抗体、人源化抗体和全人抗体等阶段,目前初步应用于抗肿瘤、抗自身免疫病、抗感染等领域。保持和提高抗体的亲和力、降低抗体的免疫原性是抗体药物基因工程改造的两大原则。在嵌合抗体成功的基础上,通过CDR移植、表面修饰、抗体库以及转基因鼠技术,逐步提高人源化程度至100%。然而,实验室水平的研究结果与实际应用仍然存在一定差距。就重组抗体药物的基本概况、现存的问题与可能的解决办法以及在肿瘤、病毒性疾病和阿尔茨海默病治疗上的应用情况等进行了综述。
