摘要:

目的 制备表面表达程序性细胞死亡配体1(PD-L1)纳米抗体的细菌外膜囊泡(OMV),探讨其结构特性、细胞相容性、细胞内分布及其对程序性细胞死亡受体1(PD-1)/PD-L1信号轴的阻断效果。 方法 构建pET28a-ClyA-PD-L1nb原核表达载体,转化至大肠杆菌BL21(DE3)感受态细胞,通过超速离心法从转化PD-L1nb表达载体的BL21(DE3)单克隆菌落中分离OMV,利用组氨酸(His)标签进行蛋白纯化。采用透射电子显微镜和纳米粒径分析仪对OMV进行分析鉴定。将转化PD-L1nb表达载体的BL21(DE3)单克隆菌落所分离的OMV作为实验组,以未转化的BL21(DE3)单克隆菌落所分离的OMV作为对照组,采用Western blotting 法检测2组OMV中ClyA-PD-L1nb融合蛋白表达情况,采用细胞计数试剂盒8(CCK-8)法检测OMV处理后小鼠巨噬细胞RAW264.7、小鼠三阴性乳腺癌细胞4T1和人胚胎肾细胞HEK293T活性,应用荧光成像技术观察OMV的肿瘤细胞内吞情况,采用流式细胞术检测PBS组、OMV-PD-L1nb组和aPD-L1+OMV-PD-L1nb组OMV与肿瘤细胞表面PD-L1的结合效果。 结果 十二烷基硫酸钠-聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳(SDS-PAGE),大肠杆菌诱导后在预计相对分子质量(约49 000)附近出现明显加粗的蛋白条带,ClyA-PD-L1nb蛋白成功表达,纯化后泳道中无明显杂蛋白存在。利用超速离心法分离得到尺寸约120 nm的OMV-PD-L1nb,透射电子显微镜下呈现为尺寸均一的圆球形结构。Western blotting法,实验组OMV中检测到ClyA-PD-L1nb特异性条带。CCK-8法,经不同浓度OMV处理后,RAW 264.7细胞、4T1细胞和HEK293T细胞活性均接近100%。荧光成像,OMV-PD-L1nb被4T1细胞内吞后分散在细胞质中。与OMV-PD-L1nb组比较,aPD-L1+OMV-PD-L1nb组细胞中平均荧光强度明显降低(P<0.001)。 结论 成功制备并分离了表面表达PD-L1nb的OMV即OMV-PD-L1nb,其在小鼠巨噬细胞、肿瘤细胞和人胚胎肾细胞上显示出良好的相容性,可被肿瘤细胞内吞并成功阻断PD-1/PD-L1信号通路。

Abstract:

Objective To prepare the bacterial outer membrane vesicles (OMV) that can express programmed death ligand 1(PD-L1) nanobody on surface, and to discuss its structural characteristics, cell compatibility, intracellular distribution, and its blocking effect on the programmed cell death protein-1(PD-1)/PD-L1 signaling axis. Methods The pET28a-ClyA-PD-L1nb prokaryotic expression vector was constructed and transformed into Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) competent cells; the OMV was isolated from the BL21 (DE3) monoclonal colonies transformed with the PD-L1nb expression vector by ultracentrifugation; the protein purification was performed using the histidine (His) tag; transmission electron microscope and nanoparticle size analyzer were used to analyze and identify the OMV; the OMV isolated from the BL21 (DE3) monoclonal colonies transformed with the PD-L1nb expression vector was used as experimental group; the OMV isolated from the untransformed BL21 (DE3) monoclonal colonies was used as control group; Western blotting method was used to detect the expression levels of ClyA-PD-L1nb fusion protein in the OMV in two groups; cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay was used to detect the activities of mouse macrophage RAW 264.7 cells, mouse triple-negative breast cancer 4T1 cells, and human embryonic kidney HEK293T cells after treated with OMV; fluorescence imaging technology was used to observe the tumor cell endocytosis of OMV; flow cytometry was used to detect the binding effect of OMV to the PD-L1 on surface of the tumor cells in PBS group, OMV-PD-L1nb group, and aPD-L1+OMV-PD-L1nb group. Results The sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) results showed that after induction of Escherichia coli, significantly thickened protein bands appeared near the predicted relative molecular mass (about 49 000), and after purification, no obvious impurity proteins existed in the lanes; the OMV-PD-L1nb with a size of about 120 nm was isolated by ultracentrifugation, and it presented a uniform spherical structure under transmission electron microscope; the Western blotting results showed that the specific band of ClyA-PD-L1nb was detected in the OMV in experimental group; the CCK-8 assay results showed that after treated with different concentrations of OMV, the viabilities of the RAW 264.7 cells, 4T1 cells, and HEK293T cells were all close to 100%; the fluorescence imaging results showed that OMV-PD-L1nb was endocytosed by 4T1 cells and dispersed in the cytoplasm; compared with OMV-PD-L1nb group, the average fluorescence intensity in the cells in aPD-L1+OMV-PD-L1nb group was significantly decreased (P<0.001). Conclusion The OMV surface-displaying PD-L1nb, OMV-PD-L1nb, is successfully prepared and isolated; OMV-PD-L1nb shows good compatibility on mouse macrophage cells, tumor cells, and human embryonic kidney cells, can be endocytosed by tumor cells, and successfully blocks the PD-1/PD-L1 signaling pathway.
