Identification of a novel lysosomal trafficking peptide using phage display biopanning coupled with endocytic selection pressure.

ABSTRACT: Methods to select ligands that accumulate specifically in cancer cells and traffic through a defined endocytic pathway may facilitate rapid pairing of ligands with linkers suitable for drug conjugate therapies. We performed phage display biopanning on cancer cells that are treated with selective inhibitors of a given mechanism of endocytosis. Using chlorpromazine to inhibit clathrin-mediated endocytosis in H1299 nonsmall cell lung cancer cells, we identified two clones, ATEPRKQYATPRVFWTDAPG (15.1) and a novel peptide LQWRRDDNVHNFGVWARYRL (H1299.3). The peptides segregate by mechanism of endocytosis and subsequent location of subcellular accumulation. The H1299.3 peptide primarily utilizes clathrin-mediated endocytosis and colocalizes with Lamp1, a lysosomal marker. Conversely, the 15.1 peptide is clathrin-independent and localizes to a perinuclear region. Thus, this novel phage display scheme allows for selection of peptides that selectively internalize into cells via a known mechanism of endocytosis. These types of selections may allow for better matching of linker with targeting ligand by selecting ligands that internalize and traffic to known subcellular locations.

Project description:PurposeHER3 (ERBB3) is a receptor tyrosine kinase that is implicated in treatment resistance across multiple cancers, including those of the breast, lung, and prostate. Overexpression of HER3 following targeted therapy can occur rapidly and heterogeneously both within a single lesion and across sites of metastasis, making protein quantification by biopsy highly challenging. A global, non-invasive methodology such as positron emission tomography (PET) imaging can permit serial quantification of HER3, providing a useful approach to monitor HER3 expression across the entire tumor burden both prior to and following treatment. PET imaging of HER3 expression may permit a more personalized approach to targeted therapy by allowing for detection of HER3-mediated resistance, in addition to informing clinical trial patient selection for novel therapies targeting HER3.ProceduresPhage display selection targeting the HER3 extracellular domain was performed in order to develop a peptide with optimal blood clearance and highly accurate HER3 quantification.ResultsThe selection converged to a consensus peptide sequence that was subsequently found to bind HER3 with an affinity of 270 ± 151 nM. The peptide, termed HER3P1, was bound with high selectivity to HER3 over other similar receptor tyrosine kinases such as EGFR and HER2. Furthermore, HER3P1 was able to distinguish between high and low HER3-expressing cells in vitro. The peptide was radiolabeled with Ga-68 and demonstrated to specifically bind HER3 by in vivo PET imaging. Uptake of [68Ga]HER3P1 was highly specific for HER3-positive tumors, with tumor-to-background ratios ranging from 1.59-3.32, compared to those of HER3-negative tumors, ranging from 0.84-0.93. The uptake of [68Ga]HER3P1 also demonstrated high (P < 0.001) correlation with protein expression as quantified by Western blot and confirmed by biodistribution.ConclusionsHER3P1 accurately quantifies expression of HER3 by PET imaging and has potential utility as a clinical imaging agent.
