从靶向单药到多警报素协同,人源化小鼠模型应用于哮喘精准治疗新浪潮

2026-09-09     来源:南模生物     点击次数:20

近年来,哮喘的精准治疗已不再局限于2型炎症通路。随着对疾病异质性认识的深入,如何突破传统T2/非T2二元框架,覆盖更广泛的患者群体,已成为新药研发的核心命题。2026年,靶向胸腺基质淋巴细胞生成素(TSLP)的生物制剂特泽利尤单抗在中国正式上市,靶向TSLP及另一未公开靶点的长效双特异性抗体HBM7575/SKB575也同期获批IND。

精准治疗时代的到来,对临床前评价体系提出了更高要求——TSLP、IL-4及其受体在人与小鼠间不存在交叉反应,传统小鼠模型难以准确评估靶向这些人类靶点的药物。因此,构建更贴近人体生理与病理特征的人源化小鼠模型,已成为连接基础研究与临床转化的关键桥梁。南模生物借助丰富的靶点人源化模型,结合原有成熟疾病模型体系,构建了更加契合目前药物研发的哮喘模型,助力前沿研究。

南模生物哮喘相关动物模型
  • 案例一:由OVA+hTSLP诱导的人源化小鼠hIL4/hIL4R/hTSLP/hCRLF2哮喘模型

该模型以人源化hIL4/hIL4R/hTSLP/hCRLF2小鼠为背景,经OVA致敏+人TSLP蛋白增强表型,可在保留经典过敏性炎症框架的同时,特异性激活人TSLP信号通路。这一设计使其能够准确评价抗人TSLP抗体(如Tezepelumab)的体内药效,解决了种属交叉反应带来的评价盲区。

常用诱导方法:

模型数据:

  • 案例二:由OVA+hTSLP诱导的人源化小鼠hIL4/hIL4R/hTSLP/hCRLF2哮喘模型

该模型以hIL4/hIL4R/hTSLP/hCRLF2人源化小鼠为背景,可模拟哮喘中多重上皮警报素(alarmin)协同作用的复杂病理场景,构建了OVA联合hTSLP与hIL33的哮喘模型,可用于模拟哮喘中多重上皮警报素协同作用的复杂病理场景。该模型不仅支持抗人TSLP与抗人IL-33单药的独立评价,更为探索两者联合阻断的叠加或协同疗效提供了可靠的体内平台。

除上述品系外,南模生物炎症/自身免疫疾病评价平台自主研发了多种哮喘小鼠模型,采用屋尘螨提取物(house dust mite,HDM)、卵清蛋白(ovalbumin,OVA)等方式,在不同品系(C57BL/6,hIL4/hIL4R mice,BALB/c等)中构建小鼠哮喘模型,并进行了相关验证,可用于哮喘治疗药物的药效评价。
