Research Abstract |
In order to construct the stabel supply system and apply to the immunotherapy for unresectable cholangiocarcinoma, the bacterial expression system of variable regions of anti-MUC-1 IgG, anti-CD3 IgG and anti-CD28 IgG derived from original hybridoma cell line was constructed. Each cDNA encoding corresponding variable region of immunoglobulin was cloned, followed by linking the regions with flexible peptide linker (GlyGlyGlyGlySer)3. The genes encoding single chain Fv fragment were arranged with either VH-linker-VL or VL-linker-VH. The expressed insoluble proteins were solubillized by Guanidine-HCl, refolded, and purified by metal-chelating chematography. Prepared MUSE-11, anti-CD28 and anti-CD3 scFv had same specificity for each original IgG. And a bispecific diabody binding to adenocarcinoma associated antigen MUC1 and to CD3 on Tcells has been focused. Namely, one chain consisted of a VH specific for MUC1 linked to a VL specific for CD3 with a short polypeptide linker (GGGGS). They second was composed of the VL specific for MUC1 linked to the VH specific for CD3. The two hetero sc Fvs were independently obtained from intracellular insoluble fractions of E. coli, purified and mixed stoichiometrically and refolded by the modified dialysis method. The refolded two hetero scFv has hetero-dimeric structure, with distinct specificity for both target cells. Evaluation of the in vitro efficacy of T-LAK with the diabody by growth inhibition assay of cancer cells demonstrated maximum growth inhibition of cancer cells to reach about 98% at the effector:target ratio of 10, almost identical to that with anti-MUC1 x anti-CD3 chemically synthesized BsAbs. Bispecific diabody may be good candidates for new adoptive targeted immunotherapy.
