Abstract:
Objective To express recombinant human interleukin-29-Fc(rhIL-29-Fc) fusion protein in human embryonic kidney 293-F(HEK293F) cells and analyze its anti-tumor activity in vitro.Methods The recombinant expression plasmid UCOE-IL-29-Fc was constructed and transiently transfected into HEK-293F cells.After expression and purification,rhIL-29-Fc fusion protein was obtained and identified by SDS-PAGE and Western blot;Female Japanese white rabbits were immunized with rhIL-29 and rhIL-29-Fc protein subcutaneously in the left ear respectively,2 rabbits in each group,0.5 mg per rabbit.Blood samples were collected from the vein of right ear,and the serum was separated.The half-life was measured by ELISA and the anti-proliferation effect of rhIL-29-Fc protein on human colon cancer HT-29,human colon cancer HCT-116,human Burkkit lymphoma Daudi,human non-small cell lung cancer NCI-H1975,human small cell lung cancer NCI-H209,human esophageal cancer EC109 and human pancreatic cancer PANC-1 cells in vitro was detected by CCK-8 assay,and the inhibitory concentration 50(IC_(50)) was calculated.Results The recombinant expression plasmid UCOE-IL-29-Fc was constructed correctly as identified by double digestion and sequencing.After transient transfection into HEK-293 cells for 6 d,the culture supernatant was harvested.The relative molecular mass of the purified rhIL-29-Fc fusion protein was consistent with the expectation.The protein showed a specific binding reaction with mouse anti-human IL-29 monoclonal antibody with a concentration of 1.5 mg/ml and a purity of 93%.RhIL-29-Fc protein had a half-life of 25 h and showed different inhibitory effects on the proliferation of 7 kinds of tumor cells,and the IC_(50) on different cells was also different.Conclusion The rhIL-29-Fc fusion protein was successfully expressed in HEK-293F cells,and the half-life of the fusion protein was 20 h longer than that of rhIL-29.According to the different anti-tumor proliferation activity in vitro and IC_(50) results on 7 kinds of tumor cells,it was found that the anti-tumor activity of rhIL-29-Fc fusion protein was higher than that of rhIL-29.This study laid a foundation of the development of IL-29 protein in the treatment of tumors.
