The Wnt signaling pathway plays a critical role in bone development and homeostasis. Sclerostin, a Wnt ligand inhibitor, competes with Wnt ligands for low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 5 or 6 (LRP5/6) on osteoblasts, thereby suppressing bone formation. Sclerostin-neutralizing monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) have emerged as a potential bone-forming therapy for osteoporosis. A cell-based bioassay which determines the relative activity of a product, related to its mechanism of action, is of great importance from drug discovery to quality control and batch release. Currently used cell-based bioassays for sclerostin-neutralizing mAbs usually use Wnt1 or Wnt3a to stimulate the Wnt pathway; sclerostin is a direct inhibitor of Wnt1 but not Wnt3a. Wnt1 is a highly hydrophobic protein that binds to the producing cell membrane and acts in a juxtacrine manner to stimulate the Wnt pathway in neighboring cells. Bioassays for drugs that induce Wnt1 signaling should be performed in a juxtacrine manner. Here, we present a mechanism of action-reflective, dual cell-based reporter gene assay. In this assay, Wnt1 producer cells are co-cultured with cells containing the Wnt reporter genes, Wnt1 on the producer cells activates the Wnt signaling pathway in the reporter cells that are in direct cell-to-cell contact, and sclerostin-neutralizing mAbs specifically and effectively antagonize the sclerostin-mediated Wnt reporter gene suppression. This bioassay demonstrates good specificity, accuracy, linearity, and precision and is suitable for quality control, stability testing, batch release, and biosimilarity assessment of sclerostin-neutralizing mAbs.</p>"></meta><meta charset="UTF-8" /><!-- Pagebuild admin UI --> <script type="text/javascript"> ;window.NREUM||(NREUM={});NREUM.init={privacy:{cookies_enabled:true}};

typeof="Text" role="doc-abstract"><h2 property="name">Abstract</h2><div id="spara008" role="paragraph">Osteoporosis is a major threat to the elderly worldwide. The Wnt signaling pathway plays a critical role in bone development and homeostasis. Sclerostin, a Wnt ligand inhibitor, competes with Wnt ligands for low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 5 or 6 (LRP5/6) on osteoblasts, thereby suppressing bone formation. Sclerostin-neutralizing monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) have emerged as a potential bone-forming therapy for osteoporosis. A cell-based bioassay which determines the relative activity of a product, related to its mechanism of action, is of great importance from drug discovery to quality control and batch release. Currently used cell-based bioassays for sclerostin-neutralizing mAbs usually use Wnt1 or Wnt3a to stimulate the Wnt pathway; sclerostin is a direct inhibitor of Wnt1 but not Wnt3a. Wnt1 is a highly hydrophobic protein that binds to the producing cell membrane and acts in a juxtacrine manner to stimulate the Wnt pathway in neighboring cells. Bioassays for drugs that induce Wnt1 signaling should be performed in a juxtacrine manner. Here, we present a mechanism of action-reflective, dual cell-based reporter gene assay. In this assay, Wnt1 producer cells are co-cultured with cells containing the Wnt reporter genes, Wnt1 on the producer cells activates the Wnt signaling pathway in the reporter cells that are in direct cell-to-cell contact, and sclerostin-neutralizing mAbs specifically and effectively antagonize the sclerostin-mediated Wnt reporter gene suppression. This bioassay demonstrates good specificity, accuracy, linearity, and precision and is suitable for quality control, stability testing, batch release, and biosimilarity assessment of sclerostin-neutralizing mAbs.</div></section><section id="graphical-abstract" property="abstract" typeof="Text" role="doc-abstract"><h2 property="name">Graphical abstract</h2><div id="spara009" role="paragraph"><div class="figure-wrap"><figure id="fig0005" class="graphic"><a class="icon-full-screen" href="/cms/10.1016/j.slasd.2024.100187/asset/7c5c964f-c4b5-42c0-a6f4-90c4585a3079/main.assets/ga1_lrg.jpg" target="_blank" title="View full size image in a new tab"><img alt="Image, graphical abstract" src="/cms/10.1016/j.slasd.2024.100187/asset/db3adad0-afb1-4595-8b10-f37263c39220/main.assets/ga1.jpg" height="200" width="317" data-viewer-src="/cms/10.1016/j.slasd.2024.100187/asset/7c5c964f-c4b5-42c0-a6f4-90c4585a3079/main.assets/ga1_lrg.jpg" loading="lazy" /></a></figure></div></div></section></div></div><div class="core-linked-content"></div><section id="keywords" property="keywords"><h2>Keywords</h2><ol><li><a href="/action/doSearch?AllField="Bioassay"&journalCode=slasd" alt="Search on this keyword">Bioassay</a></li><li><a href="/action/doSearch?AllField="Bioactivity"&journalCode=slasd" alt="Search on this keyword">Bioactivity</a></li><li><a href="/action/doSearch?AllField="Sclerostin"&journalCode=slasd" alt="Search on this keyword">Sclerostin</a></li><li><a href="/action/doSearch?AllField="Neutralizing"&journalCode=slasd" alt="Search on this keyword">Neutralizing</a></li><li><a href="/action/doSearch?AllField="Antibody"&journalCode=slasd" alt="Search on this keyword">Antibody</a></li></ol></section><div class="core-linked-content"></div><div class="core-linked-content"></div><div class="core-linked-content"></div><section id="bodymatter" data-extent="bodymatter" property="articleBody" typeof="Text"><div class="core-container"><section id="sec-1"><h2>1 Introduction</h2><div id="para0004" role="paragraph">Osteoporosis is a skeletal condition characterized by the reduction in density (mass/volume) of normally mineralized bone. On a cellular level, osteoporosis arises from osteoclastic bone resorption that is not compensated by osteoblastic bone formation [<a id="crf0013" href="#bib0001" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0001">1</a>]. One of the pathways that plays a crucial role during skeletal development and bone homeostasis is the Wnt signaling pathway [<a id="crf0014" href="#bib0002" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0002">2</a>]. Wnt ligands are a family of secreted glycoproteins which undergo post-translational modification with palmitoylation. These lipid-modified Wnt ligands are highly hydrophobic and have strong membrane binding affinity, making it difficult for them to diffuse freely into the extracellular space [<a id="crf0015" href="#bib0003" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0003">3</a>,<a id="crf0016" href="#bib0004" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0004">4</a>]. Wnt1, Wnt3a, Wnt4, Wnt5a, Wnt5b, Wnt7b, Wnt9b, and Wnt10b have been identified in bone tissue and are implicated in new bone formation [<a id="crf0017" href="#bib0005" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0005 bib0006 bib0007">5-7</a>]. Wnt signaling is activated by the binding of a Wnt ligand to a coupled receptor complex consisting of LRP5/6 and Frizzled receptors. Upon ligand binding, the signal is transduced to ß-catenin, which accumulates in the cytoplasm, subsequently translocates to the nucleus, and forms a complex with the TCF/LEF transcription factors. The transcriptional complex binds to the TCF/LEF response element and induces transcription of osteogenic genes [<a id="crf0019" href="#bib0008" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0008 bib0009 bib0010">8-10</a>].</div><div id="para0005" role="paragraph">Sclerostin is a glycoprotein secreted by osteocytes that binds to the extracellular domains of LRP5/6 to inhibit Wnt ligand binding, thereby inhibiting canonical Wnt signaling and bone formation in osteoblast-lineage cells [<a id="crf0021" href="#bib0011" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0011">11</a>]. Both sclerostin and Wnt ligands bind to the LRP5/6, which contain four tandem YWTD-type β-propellers, termed E1 to E4, spanning from N- to C-terminus of extracellular domain [<a id="crf0022" href="#bib0012" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0012">12</a>,<a id="crf0023" href="#bib0013" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0013">13</a>]. It has been demonstrated that Wnt1, Wnt2, Wnt6, Wnt8a, Wnt9b, and Wnt10b interact with the E1E2 domain, whereas Wnt3 and Wnt3a prefer the E3E4 domain. Sclerostin effectively antagonizes Wnt1, Wnt2, and Wnt9b signaling, but not Wnt3a signaling, through competition for the E1E2 domain of LRP5/6 [<a id="crf0024" href="#bib0003" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0003">3</a>,<a id="crf0025" href="#bib0011" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0011">11</a>,<a id="crf0026" href="#bib0014" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0014 bib0015 bib0016 bib0017">14-17</a>]. Several mAbs that specifically antagonize sclerostin-mediated inhibition of the Wnt signaling pathway have been developed for the treatment of osteoporosis and osteogenesis imperfecta, including SHR-1222, setrusumab, blosozumab and romosozumab [<a id="crf0028" href="#bib0018" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0018 bib0019 bib0020 bib0021 bib0022 bib0023 bib0024">18-24</a>]. Of these, romosozumab, which was developed jointly by Amgen and UCB, has received approval from regulatory authorities in the US, EU, and Japan. Romosozumab is a novel bone anabolic treatment option for osteoporosis that works by directly neutralizing sclerostin and re-activating the Wnt signaling pathway in osteoblasts [<a id="crf0030" href="#bib0018" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0018">18</a>].</div><div id="para0006" role="paragraph">Cell-based in vitro bioassays serve as valuable tools for drug discovery, development, quality control, and batch release. The classic cell-based bioassay for evaluating the bioactivity of sclerostin-neutralizing mAbs is the osteoblast mineralization assay using the pre-osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cell line [<a id="crf0031" href="#bib0025" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0025">25</a>,<a id="crf0032" href="#bib0026" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0026">26</a>]. Sclerostin suppresses MC3T3-E1 mineralization, which is supposed to be caused by sclerostin mediated inhibition of Wnt signaling. Sclerostin-neutralizing mAbs antagonize the mineralization suppressing effect of sclerostin. However, this assay has several limitations: 1) the assay is laborious and time consuming (12-20 days); 2) the mineralization process is affected by the type of base medium, the batch of fetal bovine serum, and the freshness of the medium [<a id="crf0033" href="#bib0025" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0025">25</a>,<a id="crf0034" href="#bib0027" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0027">27</a>]; 3) no exogenous Wnt ligands are added in this assay; therefore, the only possible source of Wnt ligands is fetal bovine serum, which is subject to lot-to-lot variability [<a id="crf0035" href="#bib0026" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0026">26</a>,<a id="crf0036" href="#bib0028" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0028">28</a>]. The inability of this assay to generate a dose-response curve and EC50 renders it unsuitable for quality control, particularly for batch release.</div><div id="para0007" role="paragraph">The C2C12 trans-differentiation and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity assay is additionally employed to evaluate the bioactivity of sclerostin-neutralizing mAbs. C2C12, a murine myoblast cell line, is thought to differentiate into osteoblasts when stimulated with Wnt3a in conjunction with bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2) or BMP4 [<a id="crf0037" href="#bib0029" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0029">29</a>,<a id="crf0038" href="#bib0030" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0030">30</a>]. However, the underlying mechanism seems paradoxical. It has been demonstrated that BMP2 and BMP4 can independently induce the differentiation of C2C12 cells into osteoblasts in the absence of Wnt ligands [<a id="crf0039" href="#bib0031" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0031">31</a>,<a id="crf0040" href="#bib0032" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0032">32</a>]. Sclerostin does not act as a BMP antagonist, nor does it directly suppress the Wnt3a pathway [<a id="crf0041" href="#bib0015" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0015">15</a>,<a id="crf0042" href="#bib0017" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0017">17</a>,<a id="crf0043" href="#bib0033" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0033">33</a>]. Furthermore, activation of BMP signaling pathway induces sclerostin expression, resulting in the inhibition of the Wnt pathway [<a id="crf0044" href="#bib0034" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0034">34</a>,<a id="crf0045" href="#bib0035" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0035">35</a>]. On the other side, the Wnt pathway induced by Wnt3a antagonizes the function of BMP2 and induces the differentiation of C2C12 towards myogenic cells [<a id="crf0046" href="#bib0036" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0036">36</a>]. Although BMP2 and Wnt3a are able to induce significant expression of ALP in C2C12 cells, the morphological properties indicate that the C2C12 cells are more prone to differentiate into myocytes.</div><div id="para0008" role="paragraph">The reporter gene assay was also developed to evaluate the bioactivity of sclerostin-neutralizing mAbs. In the methodologies described by Novartis and Chugai Pharmaceutical, a Wnt1 expression vector and a vector containing a luciferase gene under the control of the TCF/LEF response element were transiently transfected into HEK293 cells. The bioactivity of sclerostin-neutralizing mAbs was determined by adding the mixture of sclerostin and sclerostin-neutralizing mAbs after plasmid transfection [<a id="crf0047" href="#bib0037" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0037">37</a>,<a id="crf0048" href="#bib0038" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0038">38</a>]. In another reporter gene assay, HEK293T cells were engineered to harbor an integrated TCF/LEF response element-luciferase reporter gene and stably express Wnt1. The bioactivity of sclerostin-neutralizing mAbs was determined using this stable cell line [<a id="crf0049" href="#bib0039" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0039">39</a>]. Wnt1 is a pivotal Wnt ligand in human bone homeostasis. Sclerostin directly competes with Wnt1 for the E1E2 domain of LRP5/6, thereby making Wnt1 an appropriate stimulus for the Wnt pathway in these assays. From a physiological perspective, Wnt1 functions in a strictly juxtacrine manner to induce osteoblast differentiation [<a id="crf0050" href="#bib0010" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0010">10</a>]. However, Wnt1 does not function in a strictly juxtacrine manner in these reporter gene assays. Bioassays are used to evaluate the potency of the drug and may predict clinical efficacy. To this end, the assay should reflect or mimic the product's known or intended mechanism of action. The mechanism of action of sclerostin neutralizing mAbs is the restoration of Wnt1′s juxtacrine signaling pathway. The main difference between juxtacrine and paracrine is that juxtacrine signaling requires close contact of cells, whereas paracrine signaling produces signals that induce changes in nearby cells [<a id="crf0051" href="#bib0040" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0040">40</a>]. The use of a soluble ligand (either purified or contained in conditioned medium) and co-culture studies are the most common methods to distinguish between these two types of interactions.</div><div id="para0009" role="paragraph">In this study, we developed a dual cell-based reporter gene assay, in which the Wnt1 producer cells (HEK293T cells stably expressing Wnt1) are co-cultured with the Wnt reporter cells (HEK293T cells harboring the TCF/LEF response element-luciferase reporter gene). Wnt1 tethered to the producer cell membrane induces activation of Wnt signaling pathway in the neighboring reporter cells as reflected by the luciferase activity. The presence of sclerostin suppresses Wnt signaling by competing for the LRP5/6 receptor. Addition of sclerostin-neutralizing mAbs antagonizes sclerostin and re-activates the Wnt pathway. This method was systematically optimized and validated to demonstrate its potency for the determination of bioactivity of sclerostin-neutralizing mAbs.</div></section><section id="sec-2"><h2>2 Materials and methods</h2><section id="sec-2-1"><h3>2.1 Cell culture and reagents</h3><div id="para0010" role="paragraph">HEK293T cells (CRL3216, ATCC) were cultured in DMEM medium (11965092, Gibco) containing 10% (v/v) fetal bovine serum (10099141C, Gibco) in a humidified incubator with 5% CO<sub>2</sub>.

EC50 values were determined and the relative standard deviation (RSD) for both repeatability and intermediate precision was calculated using the equation: (standard deviation/mean) × 100. The predefined acceptance criterion was that the RSD between replicates should be ≤ 20% at all levels evaluated.</div></section><section id="sec-2-7"><h3>2.7 Data analysis</h3><div id="para0018" role="paragraph">A four-parameter model was used to analyze the corresponding relationship between relative luciferase units (RLU) and the logarithm of sample concentrations.

We first demonstrated that Wnt1 and Wnt3a have different modes of action. As shown in <a id="crf0053" href="#fig0001">Fig. 1</a>, conditioned medium from Wnt1 producer cells did not induce Wnt reporter activity in Wnt reporter cells. The conditioned media from Wnt3a producer cells induced significant luciferase activity in Wnt reporter cells. The co-culture of Wnt1 or Wnt3a producer cells with Wnt reporter cells resulted in activation of the Wnt pathway. These data demonstrate that secreted Wnt3a can diffuse into the medium and activate the Wnt pathway. However, Wnt1 only stimulates the Wnt signaling pathway in the co-culture of producer and reporter cells. These data also suggest that secreted Wnt1 binds to the cell membrane and induce Wnt signaling in the Wnt reporter cells in a juxtacrine manner. Next, we determined the suppressive effect of sclerostin on the Wnt1 and Wnt3a signaling pathways. The use of 1.25 µg/mL sclerostin was observed to effectively suppress the Wnt1 signaling pathway, while no discernible effect was noted on the Wnt3a signaling pathway. This is consistent with previous reports that sclerostin functions as an inhibitor of Wnt1, rather than Wnt3a [<a id="crf0054" href="#bib0015" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0015">15</a>,<a id="crf0055" href="#bib0017" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0017">17</a>].</div><div class="figure-wrap"><figure id="fig0001" class="graphic"><a class="icon-full-screen" href="/cms/10.1016/j.slasd.2024.100187/asset/61d48269-4e94-4c10-ac7e-91cf75b82d28/main.assets/gr1_lrg.jpg" target="_blank" title="View full size image in a new tab"><img alt="Fig. 1" src="/cms/10.1016/j.slasd.2024.100187/asset/b152f008-dfd6-4799-830d-e14c9d6e1d73/main.assets/gr1.jpg" height="397" width="395" data-viewer-src="/cms/10.1016/j.slasd.2024.100187/asset/61d48269-4e94-4c10-ac7e-91cf75b82d28/main.assets/gr1_lrg.jpg" loading="lazy" /></a><figcaption class="figure__caption__body"><div id="fig0001-title" class="figure__title"><span class="label figure__label">Fig. 1</span> <span class="figure__title__text"><b>Wnt1 and Wnt3a have distinct modes of action</b>.

Design strategies for bioassays are driven by the drug's intended physiological mechanism of action. The mechanism of action of sclerostin-neutralizing mAbs is to antagonize sclerostin-mediated inhibition of Wnt1 juxtacrine signaling. Wnt1 and Wnt3a are pivotal osteogenic factors and are frequently employed as Wnt pathway activators in cell-based assays for the determination of the biological activity of sclerostin-neutralizing mAbs. It has been demonstrated that exosomes are effective vehicles for the trafficking of Wnt proteins [<a id="crf0065" href="#bib0041" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0041 bib0042 bib0043">41-43</a>]. However, Wnt1 and Wnt3a have different modes of action. As shown in <a id="crf0067" href="#fig0001">Fig. 1</a>, Wnt3a conditioned medium activated Wnt signaling in the reporter cells. In contrast, Wnt1 conditioned medium did not activate Wnt signaling in the reporter cells, indicating that Wnt1 couldn't diffuse into the medium or be transported by exosomes. The Wnt1 producer cells triggered the Wnt signaling cascade in the co-cultured Wnt reporter cells, thereby demonstrating that Wnt1 signaling requires direct cell-to-cell contact. This mode of action is classified as juxtacrine signaling, which involves molecules that induce functional changes in neighboring target cells while remaining associated with the plasma membrane of the producer cells, as opposed to acting in the fluid phase [<a id="crf0068" href="#bib0044" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0044">44</a>]. A recent study demonstrated that Wnt1-overexpressing cells in the insert failed to induce differentiation of osteoblastic cells at the bottom of the well in a trans-well assay, ruling out the possibility of Wnt1 being transported by exosomes or free diffusion. The authors concluded that Wnt1 signals in a strictly juxtacrine manner to induce osteoblast differentiation [<a id="crf0069" href="#bib0010" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0010">10</a>]. When sclerostin was added to the co-culture of Wnt producer and reporter cells, it suppressed the bioactivity of Wnt1, but not that of Wnt3a. These data are in accordance with previous reports indicating that Wnt1 directly competes with sclerostin for the E1E2 domain of LRP5/6, whereas Wnt3a binds to the E3E4 domain [<a id="crf0070" href="#bib0015" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0015">15</a>,<a id="crf0071" href="#bib0017" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0017">17</a>]. Based on these data, we concluded that Wnt1 should be employed in the assay and that a dual-cell system should be utilized to provide a physiological niche that mimics the in vivo situation in bone tissue, wherein Wnt1 is secreted by osteocytes and mesenchymal cells and acts on neighboring osteoblasts through direct cell-to-cell contact [<a id="crf0072" href="#bib0010" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0010">10</a>,<a id="crf0073" href="#bib0014" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0014">14</a>,<a id="crf0074" href="#bib0045" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0045">45</a>,<a id="crf0075" href="#bib0046" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0046">46</a>].</div><div id="para0031" role="paragraph">The main advantages of reporter gene assay are high sensitivity, reliability, convenience, dynamic range, and adaptability to high-throughput screening [<a id="crf0076" href="#bib0047" role="doc-biblioref" data-xml-rid="bib0047">47</a>]. Due to the shorter time required for reporter gene expression, 20 hours compared to 12-20 days for the standard mineralization assay, the reporter gene assay appears to be less affected by extraneous influences and is therefore less variable and more accurate. The dual cell-based bioassay was developed and optimized using a methodical stepwise approach with romosozumab as the model mAb, including optimization of the seeding density of producer and reporter cells, the producer to reporter cell (P/R) ratio, the working concentration of sclerostin, and the assay incubation time. An optimal standard assay condition has finally been established. However, the assay conditions are not universal and may necessitate further optimization for recombinant sclerostin proteins from different suppliers and sclerostin-neutralizing mAbs other than romosozumab.

This was further confirmed in this study, wherein Wnt1 expressed from producer cells induced activation of the Wnt pathway in the reporter cells. Therefore, HEK293T cells are suitable for assessing drugs that modulate the Wnt signaling pathway. However, HEK293T could not reflect the physiological phenotype of bone formation. Co-culture of Wnt1 producer cells with pre-osteoblast cells, such as MC3T3-E1, should be able to reflect the physiological phenotype of bone formation. The reporter gene assay and the mineralization assay of MC3T3-E1 induced by Wnt1 producer cells can be used as orthogonal methods.</div></section><section id="sec-5"><h2>5 Conclusion</h2><div id="para0034" role="paragraph">Compared to the MC3T3-E1 mineralization assay, C2C12 trans-differentiation and ALP activity assay and single cell-based reporter gene assay, the dual cell-based bioassay demonstrated in this study is mechanism of action reflective. In addition, this bioassay is accurate, precise, time-saving, and easy to perform. It could serve for bioactivity determination including antibody discovery, characterization, quality control, batch release, and biosimilarity assessment.</div></section><section id="sec-6"><h2>CRediT authorship contribution statement</h2><div id="para0034a" role="paragraph"><b>Suzhen Wei:</b> Writing – original draft, Methodology, Formal analysis, Data curation, Conceptualization. <b>Qiang Wu:</b> Methodology, Data curation. <b>Chunlai Cao:</b> Validation. <b>Zhuoni Yang:</b> Methodology. <b>Jianrui Shi:</b> Methodology. <b>Jingqun Huang:</b> Validation. <b>Hua He:</b> Validation. <b>Yongjie Lai:</b> Writing – original draft, Investigation, Funding acquisition, Conceptualization. <b>Jing Li:</b> Writing – review & editing, Supervision, Investigation, Funding acquisition, Data curation, Conceptualization.</div></section><section id="conflict" class="core-conflict"><h2>Conflicts of Interest</h2><div id="para0035" role="paragraph">All authors except for Yongjie Lai are employees of Zhuhai United Biopharma Co., Ltd or Zhuhai United Laboratories Co., Ltd.
