摘要
目的制备一种由胰岛素样生长因子1(insulin-like growth factor 1,IGF-1)和力达霉素(lidamycin,LDM)构成的融合蛋白,并对其抗非小细胞肺癌(non-small cell lung cancer,NSCLC)活性进行检测。方法合成融合蛋白基因ldp-igf并将其插入到p ET30a载体中,再将获得的重组表达载体p ET30-ldp-igf转化至大肠杆菌中进行诱导表达,得到融合蛋白LDP-IGF。采用细胞免疫荧光实验和基于流式细胞术的亲和实验检测LDP-IGF蛋白与非小细胞肺癌细胞的结合能力;力达霉素的发色团(AE)与LDP-IGF蛋白在体外进行分子组装,获得强化融合蛋白LDP-IGF-AE。四甲基偶氮唑蓝法实验检测LDP-IGF-AE对不同非小细胞肺癌细胞的体外杀伤活性,PI染色结合流式细胞术检测LDP-IGF-AE对细胞周期的影响以及Annexin V-FITC/PI双染法检测LDP-IGF-AE对非小细胞肺癌细胞凋亡的诱导作用。结果经过诱导LDP-IGF蛋白在大肠杆菌中以包涵体形式表达。采用Ni^(2+)亲和层析技术对包涵体蛋白进行分离纯化,经过变性和分步透析复性后获得了高纯度、有活性的融合蛋白LDP-IGF。亲和实验结果显示,LDP-IGF蛋白与非小细胞肺癌细胞具有高度的亲和力。与AE分子进行组装后获得的强化融合蛋白LDPIGF-AE对不同的非小细胞肺癌细胞系均有非常强烈的杀伤活性,且其杀伤活性显著高于力达霉素。细胞周期阻滞和细胞凋亡实验结果显示,极低浓度的LDP-IGF-AE处理可使非小细胞肺癌细胞阻滞于G_2/M期,并可显著地诱导细胞发生凋亡。结论融合蛋白LDP-IGF-AE对非小细胞肺癌细胞有强大的体外抗肿瘤活性,具有发展成为非小细胞肺癌靶向治疗剂的潜能。
OBJECTIVE To construct a novel fusion protein contained insulin-like growth factor 1(IGF-1) and lidamycin(LDM) and evaluate its antitumor activity on non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC).METHODS DNA fragment coding for fusion protein(ldp-igf) was synthesized by linking apoprotein of lidamycin(ldp) with igf-1,and then was cloned into the plasmid p ET30 a.Fusion protein LDP-IGF was expressed in E.coli as inclusion bodies and was purified by Ni^(2+)affinity chromatography.Binding affinity of LDP-IGF to NSCLC cells was evaluated by immunofluorescence assay and flow cytometry-based binding assay.MTT assay was used to measure the in vitro cytotoxicity of LDP-IGF and its enediyne-energized analogue LDP-IGF-AE.PI staining assay and Annexin VFITC/PI staining assay were used to analyze the cell cycle arrest and cell apoptosis after treatment with LDP-IGF-AE,respectively.RESULTS Active soluble LDP-IGF protein was prepared by isolation,purification,denaturation and refolding,and the production of LDP-IGF was 12 mg per liter fermentation broth.Both of immunofluorescence assay and flow cytometry-based binding assay showed that LDP-IGF has strong binding activity to NSCLC cells.Enediyne-energized fusion protein LDP-IGF-AE exhibited potent cytotoxicity to NSCLC cells in vitro,and it is more potent than that of LDM.Furthermore,fusion protein LDP-IGF without active enediyne was also cytotoxic to A549 cells at high concentrations(50 and 100 μg·m L^(-1)).LDP-IGF-AE could cause significant G_2-M arrest in A549 and H460 cells,and it also induced the apoptosis in NSCLC cells in a concentration-dependent manner.CONCLUSION Fusion proteinLDP-IGF-AE shows potent antitumor efficacy in vitro on NSCLC,suggesting it could be a promising candidate for targeted therapy.
