Inhibition of insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II)-dependent cell growth by multidentate pentamannosyl 6-phosphate-based ligands targeting the mannose 6-phosphate/IGF-II receptor.

ABSTRACT: The mannose 6-phosphate/insulin-like growth factor II receptor (M6P/IGF2R) binds M6P-capped ligands and IGF-II at different binding sites within the ectodomain and mediates ligand internalization and trafficking to the lysosome. Multivalent M6P-based ligands can cross-bridge the M6P/IGF2R, which increases the rate of receptor internalization, permitting IGF-II binding as a passenger ligand and subsequent trafficking to the lysosome, where the IGF-II is degraded. This unique feature of the receptor may be exploited to design novel therapeutic agents against IGF-II-dependent cancers that will lead to decreased bioavailable IGF-II within the tumor microenvironment. We have designed a panel of M6P-based ligands that bind to the M6P/IGF2R with high affinity in a bivalent manner and cause decreased cell viability. We present evidence that our ligands bind through the M6P-binding sites of the receptor and facilitate internalization and degradation of IGF-II from conditioned medium to mediate this cellular response. To our knowledge, this is the first panel of synthetic bivalent ligands for the M6P/IGF2R that can take advantage of the ligand-receptor interactions of the M6P/IGF2R to provide proof-of-principle evidence for the feasibility of novel chemotherapeutic agents that decrease IGF-II-dependent growth of cancer cells.

Project description:The binding affinities of seven analogues of recombinant human insulin-like growth factor II (hIGF-II) were characterized for the IGF type-I and type-II receptors and insulin receptors, as well as for IGF-binding protein (IGFBP)-1, IGFBP-2, IGFPB-3 and human serum IGFBPs. A switch of two of the three cysteine bridges in hIGF-II, 9-47 and 46-51 to 9-46 and 47-51, severely impaired the binding of this analogue to all receptors and to the IGFBPs. The affinities for the IGF type-I receptor and the IGFBPs were decreased over 100-fold, while the binding to the insulin receptor and the IGF type-II receptor was less affected, with a 6-10-fold decrease in affinity. Slight modifications of the N-terminus had only minor effects upon the binding of hIGF-II to the IGFBPs or to the receptors. Deletion of both the N-terminal amino acid and the two C-terminal amino acids resulted in moderate decreases in affinity, with a 60% decrease in affinity for IGFBP-1 and the IGF type-I receptor. Acetylation of the N-terminus of Ala1 and the epsilon-nitrogen of Lys65 decreased the affinity, by 60-90%, of hIGF-II for all of the IGFBPs and receptors. The experiments involving acetylation of IGF-II or switching of its cysteine bridges indicated that these modifications (no substitution, deletion or addition of any of the 67 amino acids of hIGF-II) may lead to a severe impairment of the binding affinity of IGF-II for both the IGFBPs and the receptors. Acetylation of the epsilon-nitrogen of Lys65, which causes a charge change, or alteration of the three-dimensional structure, as shown by the cysteine bridge switch, lead to a severe impairment of the binding affinity for the binding proteins and for the receptors. In general, care should be taken with the synthesis of analogues and the interpretation of resulting binding data, since affinity alterations ascribed to amino acid changes may instead be caused by alterations of the charge or the three-dimensional structure of the protein.
