Establishment of Anti-Human ATRX Monoclonal Antibody AMab-6.

ABSTRACT: Gliomas are the most frequently occurring brain tumors with a heterogeneous molecular background. The molecular subgrouping of gliomas more prognostically stratifies patients into distinct groups compared with conventional histological classification. The most important molecules for the subtype diagnosis of diffuse gliomas are mutations of isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH), TERT promoter, and α-thalassemia/mental-retardation-syndrome-X-linked (ATRX) and the codeletion of 1p/19q. Among them, IDH and ATRX mutations can be diagnosed using specific monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). We have developed many mAbs against IDH mutants, including HMab-1/HMab-2 against IDH1-R132H and multispecific mAbs MsMab-1/MsMab-2 against IDH1/2 mutations. In contrast, highly sensitive mAbs against ATRX remain to be established. In this study, we immunized mice with recombinant human ATRX and developed a novel mAb, AMab-6. The dissociation constant of AMab-6 was determined to be 9.7 × 10^-10 M, indicating that the binding affinity of AMab-6 is very high. Furthermore, AMab-6 sensitively detects ATRX in Western blot and immunohistochemical analyses, indicating that AMab-6 could become the standard marker to determine the ATRX mutation status of gliomas in immunohistochemical analyses.

Establishment of a novel anti-TROP2 monoclonal antibody TrMab-29 for immunohistochemical analysis.

Project description:TROP2 is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein originally identified in human trophoblast cells that is overexpressed in several types of cancer. To better understand the role of TROP2 in cancer, we herein aimed to develop a sensitive and specific anti-TROP2 monoclonal antibody (mAb) for use in flow cytometry, Western blot, and immunohistochemistry using a Cell-Based Immunization and Screening (CBIS) method. Two mice were immunized with N-terminal PA-tagged and C-terminal RAP/MAP-tagged TROP2-overexpressed Chinese hamster ovary (CHO)-K1 cells (CHO/PA-TROP2-RAP-MAP), and hybridomas showing strong signals from PA-tagged TROP2-overexpressed CHO-K1 cells (CHO/TROP2-PA) and weak-to-no signals from CHO-K1 cells were selected using flow cytometry. We demonstrated using flow cytometry that the established anti-TROP2 mAb, TrMab-29 (mouse IgG1 kappa), detected TROP2 in MCF7 breast cancer cell line as well as CHO/TROP2-PA cells. Western blot analysis showed a 40 kDa band in lysates prepared from both CHO/TROP2-PA and MCF7 cells. Furthermore, TROP2 was strongly detected by immunohistochemical analysis using TrMab-29, indicating that TrMab-29 may be a valuable tool for the detection of TROP2 in cancer.

Establishment of CMab-43, a Sensitive and Specific Anti-CD133 Monoclonal Antibody, for Immunohistochemistry.

Project description:CD133, also known as prominin-1, was first described as a cell surface marker on early progenitor and hematopoietic stem cells. It is a five-domain transmembrane protein composed of an N-terminal extracellular tail, two small cytoplasmic loops, two large extracellular loops containing seven potential glycosylation sites, and a short C-terminal intracellular tail. CD133 has been used as a marker to identify cancer stem cells derived from primary solid tumors and as a prognostic marker of gliomas. Herein, we developed novel anti-CD133 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and characterized their efficacy in flow cytometry, Western blot, and immunohistochemical analyses. We expressed the full length of CD133 in LN229 glioblastoma cells, immunized mice with LN229/CD133 cells, and performed the first screening using flow cytometry. After limiting dilution, we established 100 anti-CD133 mAbs, reacting with LN229/CD133 cells but not with LN229 cells. Subsequently, we performed the second and third screening with Western blot and immunohistochemical analyses, respectively. Among 100 mAbs, 11 strongly reacted with CD133 in Western blot analysis. One of 11 clones, CMab-43 (IgG2a, kappa), showed a sensitive and specific reaction against colon cancer cells, warranting the use of CMab-43 in detecting CD133 in pathological analyses of CD133-expressing cancers.

Humanization and characterization of an anti-human TNF-? murine monoclonal antibody.

Project description:A murine monoclonal antibody, m357, showing the highly neutralizing activities for human tumor necrosis factor (TNF-?) was chosen to be humanized by a variable domain resurfacing approach. The non-conserved surface residues in the framework regions of both the heavy and light chain variable regions were identified via a molecular modeling of m357 built by computer-assisted homology modeling. By replacing these critical surface residues with the human counterparts, a humanized version, h357, was generated. The humanized h357 IgG(1) was then stably expressed in a mammalian cell line and the purified antibody maintained the high antigen binding affinity as compared with the parental m357 based on a soluble TNF-? neutralization bioassay. Furthermore, h357 IgG(1) possesses the ability to mediate antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity and complement dependent cytotoxicity upon binding to cells bearing the transmembrane form of TNF-?. In a mouse model of collagen antibody-induced arthritis, h357 IgG significantly inhibited disease progression by intra-peritoneal injection of 50 µg/mouse once-daily for 9 consecutive days. These results provided a basis for the development of h357 IgG as therapeutic use.

Generation and Validation of an Anti-Human PANK3 Mouse Monoclonal Antibody.

Project description:Coenzyme A (CoA) is an essential co-factor at the intersection of diverse metabolic pathways. Cellular CoA biosynthesis is regulated at the first committed step-phosphorylation of pantothenic acid-catalyzed by pantothenate kinases (PANK1,2,3 in humans, PANK3 being the most highly expressed). Despite the critical importance of CoA in metabolism, the differential roles of PANK isoforms remain poorly understood. Our investigations of PANK proteins as potential precision oncology collateral lethality targets (PANK1 is co-deleted as part of the PTEN locus in some highly aggressive cancers) were severely hindered by a dearth of commercial antibodies that can reliably detect endogenous PANK3 protein. While we successfully validated commercial antibodies for PANK1 and PANK2 using CRISPR knockout cell lines, we found no commercial antibody that could detect endogenous PANK3. We therefore set out to generate a mouse monoclonal antibody against human PANK3 protein. We demonstrate that a clone (Clone MDA-299-62A) can reliably detect endogenous PANK3 protein in cancer cell lines, with band-specificity confirmed by CRISPR PANK3 knockout and knockdown cell lines. Sub-cellular fractionation shows that PANK3 is overwhelmingly cytosolic and expressed broadly across cancer cell lines. PANK3 monoclonal antibody MDA-299-62A should prove a valuable tool for researchers investigating this understudied family of metabolic enzymes in health and disease.

Establishment of monoclonal anti-human CD26 antibodies suitable for immunostaining of formalin-fixed tissue.

Project description:BackgroundA T cell costimulatory molecule with dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPPIV) activity in its extracellular region, CD26 is a multifunctional molecule associated with various proteins such as adenosine deaminase, caveolin-1, CXCR4, collagen, and fibronectin, while playing an important role in the regulation of inflammatory responses and tumor biology. We have focused on CD26 as a novel therapeutic target for various tumors and immune disorders, and have developed a humanized anti-CD26 monoclonal antibody (mAb), YS110, which is currently being evaluated in a phase I clinical trial for patients with CD26-expressing tumors, including malignant mesothelioma. Since detection of tumor CD26 expression is required for determining potential eligibility for YS110 therapy, the development of anti-human CD26 mAb that can clearly and reliably detect the denatured CD26 molecule in the formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues is critical.MethodsTo develop novel anti-CD26 mAbs capable of binding to the denatured CD26, we immunized mice with CD26 protein denatured in urea buffer. After the fusion of splenocytes and myeloma cells, the mAbs were screened for specific reactivity with human CD26 by flow cytometry, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and immunohistochemistry. The binding competitiveness of novel anti-CD26 mAbs with the humanized anti-CD26 mAb YS110 was also examined.ResultsWe have succeeded in developing novel anti-human CD26 mAbs suitable for immunohistochemical staining of CD26 in formalin-fixed tissue sections with reliable clarity and intensity. Importantly, some of these mAbs exhibit no cross-reactivity with the humanized anti-CD26 mAb.ConclusionsThese novel mAbs are potentially useful as companion diagnostic agents to analyze CD26 expression in the clinical setting while advancing future CD26-related research.Virtual slidesThe virtual slides for this article can be found here: http://www.diagnosticpathology.diagnomx.eu/vs/5987140221097729.

Anti-tax interacting protein-1 (TIP-1) monoclonal antibody targets human cancers.

Project description:Radiation-inducible neo-antigens are proteins expressed on cancer cell surface after exposure to ionizing radiation (IR). These neo-antigens provide opportunities to specifically target cancers while sparing normal tissues. Tax interacting protein-1 (TIP-1) is induced by irradiation and is translocated to the surface of cancer cells. We have developed a monoclonal antibody, 2C6F3, against TIP-1.Epitope mapping revealed that 2C6F3 binds to the QPVTAVVQRV epitope of the TIP-1 protein. 2C6F3 binds to the surface of lung cancer (A549, LLC) and glioma (D54, GL261) cell lines. 2C6F3 binds specifically to TIP-1 and ELISA analysis showed that unconjugated 2C6F3 efficiently blocked binding of radiolabeled 2C6F3 to purified TIP-1 protein. To study in vivo tumor binding, we injected near infrared (NIR) fluorochrome-conjugated 2C6F3 via tail vein in mice bearing subcutaneous LLC and GL261 heterotopic tumors. The NIR images indicated that 2C6F3 bound specifically to irradiated LLC and GL261 tumors, with little or no binding in un-irradiated tumors.We also determined the specificity of 2C6F3 to bind tumors in vivo using SPECT/CT imaging. 2C6F3 was conjugated with diethylene triamine penta acetic acid (DTPA) chelator and radiolabeled with 111Indium (111In). SPECT/CT imaging revealed that 111In-2C6F3 bound more to the irradiated LLC tumors compared to un-irradiated tumors. Furthermore, injection of DTPA-2C6F3 labeled with the therapeutic radioisotope, 90Y, (90Y-DTPA-2C6F3) significantly delayed LLC tumor growth. 2C6F3 mediated antibody dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) and antibody dependent cell-mediated phagocytosis (ADCP) in vitro.In conclusion, the monoclonal antibody 2C6F3 binds specifically to TIP-1 on cancer and radio-immunoconjugated 2C6F3 improves tumor control.

A humanized anti-human adenovirus 55 monoclonal antibody with good neutralization ability.

Project description:BackgroundHuman adenovirus type 55 (HAdV55) has a re-emerged as pathogen causing an acute respiratory disease presenting as a severe lower respiratory illness that can cause death. To date, there is no HAdV55 vaccine or treatment available for general use.MethodsHerein, a monoclonal antibody specific for HAdV55, mAb 9-8, was isolated from an scFv-phage display library derived from mice immunized with the purified inactived-HAdV55 virions. By using ELISA and a virus micro-neutralization assay, we evaluated the binding and neutralizing activity of mAb 9-8 following humanization. Western blotting analysis and antigen-antibody molecular docking analysis were used to identify the antigenic epitopes that the humanized monoclonal antibody 9-8-h2 recognized. After that, their thermal stability was determined.ResultsMAb 9-8 showed potent neutralization activity against HAdV55. After humanization, the humanized neutralizing monoclonal antibody (9-8-h2) was identified to neutralize HAdV55 infection with an IC50 of 0.6050 nM. The mAb 9-8-h2 recognized HAdV55 and HAdV7 virus particles, but not HAdV4 particles. Although mAb 9-8-h2 could recognize HAdV7, it could not neutralize HAdV7. Furthermore, mAb 9-8-h2 recognized a conformational neutralization epitope of the fiber protein and the crucial amino acid residues (Arg 288, Asp 157, and Asn 200) were identified. MAb 9-8-h2 also showed favorable general physicochemical properties, including good thermostability and pH stability.ConclusionsOverall, mAb 9-8-h2 might be a promising molecule for the prevention and treatment of HAdV55.

Gene expression signatures in anti-FGFR2IIIc monoclonal antibody-treated human colorectal cancer cells

Project description:To investigate the underlying mechanisms of the inhibitory effects of human anti-human FGFR2IIIc antibody on growth and migration of colorectal cancer cells, we used DNA microarray analysis to examine the cell signaling pathway alterations following the administration of anti-FGFR2IIIc antibody. Cells were plated at a density of 2.5 M-CM-^W 105 cells in a 60-mm dish, and grown overnight. Then 100 M-NM-<g/mL of monoclonal anti-human FGFR2IIIc antibody was added in each dish. For control groups, an equal amount of anti-GFP antibody was added in another dish. After 48 hr, total RNA was isolated from cells. For use in DNA microarray analysis, 50 ng RNA from each group of cells was labeled using the Low Input Quick Amp Labeling kit. Labeled RNA was further purified using the Qiagen RNeasy Mini kit. Labeled cRNA was hybridized to the Agilent human 44k oligonucleotide microarray, and washed using Agilent Gene Expression washing buffer.

A novel human anti-interleukin-1? neutralizing monoclonal antibody showing in vivo efficacy.

Project description:The pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin (IL)-1? is a clinical target in many conditions involving dysregulation of the immune system; therapeutics that block IL-1? have been approved to treat diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA), neonatal onset multisystem inflammatory diseases, cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes, active systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis. Here, we report the generation and engineering of a new fully human antibody that binds tightly to IL-1? with a neutralization potency more than 10 times higher than that of the marketed antibody canakinumab. After affinity maturation, the derived antibody shows a>30-fold increased affinity to human IL-1? compared with its parent antibody. This anti-human IL-1? IgG also cross-reacts with mouse and monkey IL-1?, hence facilitating preclinical development. In a number of mouse models, this antibody efficiently reduced or abolished signs of disease associated with IL-1? pathology. Due to its high affinity for the cytokine and its potency both in vitro and in vivo, we propose that this novel fully human anti-IL-1? monoclonal antibody is a promising therapeutic candidate and a potential alternative to the current therapeutic arsenal.
