A therapeutic chimeric IgG/IgA expressed by CHO cells for oral treatment of PED in piglets
FRONTIERS IN MICROBIOLOGY(2022)
Abstract
Immunoglobulin A (IgA) of sows is critically important for assessing piglets' protective capacity against porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV). Here, we report a therapeutic chimeric anti-PEDV IgG/IgA expressed by Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells for oral treatment of PED. The chimeric anti-PEDV IgG/IgA was produced by the CHO cell lines, in which the heavy chain was constructed by combining the VH, C gamma 1 and hinge regions of PEDV IgG mAb 8A3, and the C alpha 2 and C alpha 3 domains of a Mus musculus immunoglobulin alpha chain. The chimeric anti-PEDV IgG/IgA could neutralize the strains of CV777 (G1), P014 (G2) and HN1303 (G2) in vitro effectively, showing broad-spectrum neutralization activity. The in vivo challenge experiments demonstrated that chimeric anti-PEDV IgG/IgA (9C4) produced in the CHO cell supernatant could alleviate clinical diarrhea symptoms of the PEDV infection in piglets. In general, our study showed that chimeric anti-PEDV IgG/IgA produced from CHO cell line supernatants effectively alleviates PEDV infection in piglets, which also gives the foundation for the construction of fully functional secretory IgA by the J chain introduction to maximize the antibody therapeutic effect.
