Microscale purification of antigen-specific antibodies.

ABSTRACT: Glycosylation of the Fc domain is an important driver of antibody effector function. While assessment of antibody glycoform compositions observed across total plasma IgG has identified differences associated with a variety of clinical conditions, in many cases it is the glycosylation state of only antibodies against a specific antigen or set of antigens that may be of interest, for example, in defining the potential effector function of antibodies produced during disease or after vaccination. Historically, glycoprofiling such antigen-specific antibodies in clinical samples has been challenging due to their low prevalence, the high sample requirement for most methods of glycan determination, and the lack of high-throughput purification methods. New methods of glycoprofiling with lower sample requirements and higher throughput have motivated the development of microscale and automatable methods for purification of antigen-specific antibodies from polyclonal sources such as clinical serum samples. In this work, we present a robot-compatible 96-well plate-based method for purification of antigen-specific antibodies, suitable for such population level glycosylation screening. We demonstrate the utility of this method across multiple antibody sources, using both purified plasma IgG and plasma, and across multiple different antigen types, with enrichment factors greater than 1000-fold observed. Using an on-column IdeS protease treatment, we further describe staged release of Fc and Fab domains, allowing for glycoprofiling of each domain.

Project description:Patients with prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-positive tumors can benefit from PSMA-targeted therapy; thus, we have constructed a phage-displayed synthetic antibody library for the production of novel PSMA antibodies with superior PSMA-targeting ability, favoring clinical management. The binding affinities of anti-PSMA antibodies were verified by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Several in vitro and in vivo experiments, including cellular uptake, internalization, and cytotoxicity studies, micro single photon emission computed tomography (microSPECT)/CT, and biodistribution studies, were performed to select the most promising antibody among six different antibodies. The results showed the target affinities of our antibodies in the ELISA assays (7A, 8C, 8E, and 11A) were comparable to the existing antibodies (J591). The half-maximal effective concentrations of 7A, 8C, 8E, 11A, and J591 were 2.95, 6.64, 5.50, 2.08, and 4.79, respectively. The radiochemical yield of 111In-labeled antibodies ranged from 30% to 50% with high radiochemical purity (>90%). In the cellular uptake studies, the accumulated radioactivity of 111In-J591, 111In-7A, and 111In-11A increased over time. The internalized percentage of 111In-11A was the highest (32.14% ± 2.06%) at 48 h after incubation, whereas that of 111In-J591 peaked at 22.43% ± 4.38% at 24 h and dropped to 13.52% ± 3.03% at 48 h postincubation. Twenty-four hours after injection, radioactivity accumulation appeared in the LNCaP xenografts of the mice injected with 111In-11A, 111In-8E, 111In-7A, and 111In-J591 but not in the xenografts of the 111In-8C-injected group. Marked liver uptake was noticed in all groups except the 111In-11A-injected group. Moreover, the killing effect of 177Lu-11A was superior to that of 177Lu-J591 at low concentrations. In conclusion, we successfully demonstrated that 11A IgG owned the most optimal biological characteristics among several new anti-PSMA antibodies and it can be an excellent PSMA-targeting component for the clinical use.
