Production and characterization of a novel HPV anti-L2 monoclonal antibody panel.

ABSTRACT: The major capsid protein of HPV, L1, assembles into pentamers that form a T?=?7 icosahedral particle, but the location of the co-assembled minor capsid protein, L2, remains controversial. Several researchers have developed useful monoclonal antibodies targeting L2, but most react with linear epitopes toward the N-terminus. As a means to better define the virus capsid and better assess the localization and exposure of L2 epitopes in the context of assembled HPV, we have developed a panel of 30 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) which target the N-terminus of L2 amino acids 11-200, previously defined as a broadly protective immunogen. Select mAbs were processed with enzymes and anti-L2 Fabs were generated. These new mAb/Fab probes will be beneficial in future studies to unravel the placement of L2 and to help better define the role of L2 in the HPV lifecycle and the nature of the broadly protective epitopes.

Development and characterization of an anti-rituximab monoclonal antibody panel.

Project description:During the development of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and other therapeutic proteins, immunogenicity, in particular the induction of anti-drug antibodies (ADAs), is an important concern, and thus immunogenicity assessment is a requirement for their approval. Establishment of appropriate methods for detecting and characterizing ADAs is necessary for immunogenicity assessment, but the lack of commonly available reference standards makes it difficult to compare and evaluate the methods. It is also difficult to compare the data with those obtained by other methods or facilities without reference standards. Here, we developed a panel of ADAs against anti-CD20 rituximab (Rituxan®, MabThera®); the panel consisted of eight clones of recombinant human-rat chimeric mAbs that target rituximab. The anti-rituximab mAbs showed different binding properties (specificity, epitope and affinity), and different neutralization potencies for CD20 binding, complement-dependent cytotoxicity and antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity. The molecular size of the immune complex consisting of rituximab and the anti-rituximab mAb differed among the clones, and was well correlated with their level of Fc?-receptor activation. These results suggest that the ADAs chosen for the newly developed panel are suitable surrogates for human ADAs, which exhibit different potential to affect the efficacy and safety of rituximab. Next, we used this panel to compare several ADA-detecting assays and revealed that the assays had different abilities to detect the ADAs with different binding characteristics. We conclude that our panel of ADAs against rituximab will be useful for the future development and characterization of assays for immunogenicity assessment.

Production and characterization of a monoclonal antibody to biotin.

Project description:Monoclonal antibodies to biotin have been prepared by using biotin linked to keyhole limpet haemocyanin (KLH) as the antigen. Spleen cells obtained from mice immunized with biotin-KLH were fused with the myeloma cell line NS-1. The resulting hybridomas were screened for the production of antibodies to biotin using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Clones producing antibodies to biotin were isolated by limiting dilution methods. Four cell lines, each derived originally from a different fusion, were chosen for the production of monoclonal antibodies. The monoclonal antibodies obtained have been characterized with respect to their ability to interact with biotin, biotin-bovine serum albumin, biotin-KLH and biocytin as well as to inhibit biotin-dependent enzymes. They have been used to produce cellular biotin deficiency in vitro for studies of biotin function.

Humanization and characterization of an anti-ricin neutralization monoclonal antibody.

Project description:Ricin is regarded as a high terrorist risk for the public due to its high toxicity and ease of production. Currently, there is no therapeutic or vaccine available against ricin. D9, a murine monoclonal antibody developed previously in our laboratory, can strongly neutralize ricin and is therefore a good candidate for humanization. Humanization of D9 variable regions was achieved by a complementarity-determining region grafting approach. The humanized D9 (hD9) variable regions were further grafted onto human heavy and light chain constant regions to assemble the complete antibody gene. A foot-and-mouth-disease virus-derived 2A self-processing sequence was introduced between heavy and light chain DNA sequences to cleave the recombinant protein into a functional full-length antibody molecule from a single open reading frame driven by a single promoter in an adenoviral vector. After expression in mammalian cells and purification, the hD9 was demonstrated to have equimolar expression of the full-length antibody heavy and light chains. More importantly, the hD9 exhibited high affinity to ricin with K(D) of 1.63 nM, comparable to its parental murine D9 (2.55 nM). In a mouse model, intraperitoneal (i.p.) administration of hD9, at a low dose of 5 µg per mouse, 4 hours after the i.p. challenge with 5×LD50 ricin was found to rescue 100% of the mice. In addition, administered 6 hours post-challenge, hD9 could still rescue 50% of the mice. The hD9 has the potential to be used for prophylactic or therapeutic purposes against ricin poisoning.

Production and characterization of monoclonal anti-sphingosine-1-phosphate antibodies.

Project description:Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a pleiotropic bioactive lipid involved in multiple physiological processes. Importantly, dysregulated S1P levels are associated with several pathologies, including cardiovascular and inflammatory diseases and cancer. This report describes the successful production and characterization of a murine monoclonal antibody, LT1002, directed against S1P, using novel immunization and screening methods applied to bioactive lipids. We also report the successful generation of LT1009, the humanized variant of LT1002, for potential clinical use. Both LT1002 and LT1009 have high affinity and specificity for S1P and do not cross-react with structurally related lipids. Using an in vitro bioassay, LT1002 and LT1009 were effective in blocking S1P-mediated release of the pro-angiogenic and prometastatic cytokine, interleukin-8, from human ovarian carcinoma cells, showing that both antibodies can out-compete S1P receptors in binding to S1P. In vivo anti-angiogenic activity of all antibody variants was demonstrated using the murine choroidal neovascularization model. Importantly, intravenous administration of the antibodies showed a marked effect on lymphocyte trafficking. The resulting lead candidate, LT1009, has been formulated for Phase 1 clinical trials in cancer and age-related macular degeneration. The anti-S1P antibody shows promise as a novel, first-in-class therapeutic acting as a "molecular sponge" to selectively deplete S1P from blood and other compartments where pathological S1P levels have been implicated in disease progression or in disorders where immune modulation may be beneficial.

A novel glycosylated anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody from transgenic cattle.

Project description:The monoclonal antibody (mAb) against CD20 known as Rituxan is widely used to treat autoimmune diseases and lymphomas. However, further application of Rituxan faces challenges of high production cost, which limits its availability in developing countries. Here, we report a new approach for large production of a recombinant anti-CD20 mAb in the milk of transgenic cattle (at a yield of up to ~6.8?mg/mL), with ~80% recovery rate and >99% purity. Crystallography study showed that our recombinant mAb is structurally nearly identical to Rituxan with only minor differences in N-linked glycosylation pattern. Functional study showed that, while our mAb shared similar target-cell binding capacities and complement-dependent cytotoxicity with Rituxan, our product exhibited a higher binding affinity for Fc?RIII? and a greater antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity. Accordingly, our recombinant mAb demonstrated a superior efficacy over Rituxan against B-cell lymphomas in severe combined immunodeficiency mice. Taken together, our data supports transgenic cattle as a novel model for cost-competitive, large-scale production of therapeutic antibodies.

Human RP105 monoclonal antibody enables the production of antigen-specific antibody

Project description:Antibody detection is a critical approach in clinical contexts. Detecting antibodies, particularly those directed against donor HLA in organ transplantation and self-antigens in autoimmune diseases, is crucial in diagnosis and therapy. Radioprotective 105 (RP105, CD180 ), a type I transmembrane protein with structural similarities to Toll-like receptor 4, is expressed in immune-competent cells, such as B cells. Studies involving mice have reported that the antimouse RP105 antibody strongly activates B cells and triggers an adjuvant effect against viral infections. However, the antihuman RP105 antibody (ɑhRP105) weakly activates human B cells. In this study, we established new culture conditions under which human B cells are strongly activated by ɑhRP105. When combined with CpGDNA, this activation induced a heightened production of interleukin 6. Under these culture conditions, specific antibody production against blood group carbohydrates, ɑGal, and SARS-CoV-2 within supernatants from human B-cell cultures was successfully detected. Furthermore, comprehensive analysis employing LC/MS/MS analysis and single-cell RNA sequencing revealed that ɑhRP105 triggered a different activation stimulus from CpGDNA. These findings could be applied to developing a straightforward approach for identifying antibody-producing B cells in cases involving transplant rejection and autoimmune diseases.

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.

Epitope-directed monoclonal antibody production using a mixed antigen cocktail facilitates antibody characterization and validation.

Project description:High quality, well-validated antibodies are needed to mitigate irreproducibility and clarify conflicting data in science. We describe an epitope-directed monoclonal antibody (mAb) production method that addresses issues of antibody quality, validation and utility. The workflow is illustrated by generating mAbs against multiple in silico-predicted epitopes on human ankyrin repeat domain 1 (hANKRD1) in a single hybridoma production cycle. Antigenic peptides (13-24 residues long) presented as three-copy inserts on the surface exposed loop of a thioredoxin carrier produced high affinity mAbs that are reactive to native and denatured hANKRD1. ELISA assay miniaturization afforded by novel DEXT microplates allowed rapid hybridoma screening with concomitant epitope identification. Antibodies against spatially distant sites on hANKRD1 facilitated validation schemes applicable to two-site ELISA, western blotting and immunocytochemistry. The use of short antigenic peptides of known sequence facilitated direct epitope mapping crucial for antibody characterization. This robust method motivates its ready adoption for other protein targets.

Development of a Novel Anti-EpCAM Monoclonal Antibody for Various Applications

Project description:The epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) is a cell surface glycoprotein, which is widely expressed on normal and cancer cells. EpCAM is involved in cell adhesion, proliferation, survival, stemness, and tumorigenesis. Therefore, EpCAM is thought to be a promising target for cancer diagnosis and therapy. In this study, we established anti-EpCAM monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) using the Cell-Based Immunization and Screening (CBIS) method. We characterized them using flow cytometry, Western blotting, and immunohistochemistry. One of the established recombinant anti-EpCAM mAbs, recEpMab-37 (mouse IgG1, kappa), reacted with EpCAM-overexpressed Chinese hamster ovary-K1 cells (CHO/EpCAM) or a colorectal carcinoma cell line (Caco-2). In contrast, recEpMab-37 did not react with EpCAM-knocked out Caco-2 cells. The KD of recEpMab-37 for CHO/EpCAM and Caco-2 was 2.0 × 10−8 M and 3.2 × 10−8 M, respectively. We observed that EpCAM amino acids between 144 to 164 are involved in recEpMab-37 binding. In Western blot analysis, recEpMab-37 detected the EpCAM of CHO/EpCAM and Caco-2 cells. Furthermore, recEpMab-37 could stain formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded colorectal carcinoma tissues by immunohistochemistry. Taken together, recEpMab-37, established by the CBIS method, is useful for detecting EpCAM in various applications.

Development and characterization of TrMab‑6, a novel anti‑TROP2 monoclonal antibody for antigen detection in breast cancer.

Project description:Trophoblast cell‑surface antigen 2 (TROP2) is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein that is overexpressed in a number of cancer types, including triple‑negative breast cancer. The current study aimed to develop a highly sensitive and specific monoclonal antibody (mAb) targeting TROP2, which could be used to evaluate TROP2 expression using flow cytometry, western blot analysis and immunohistochemistry by employing the Cell‑Based Immunization and Screening (CBIS) method. The established anti‑TROP2 mAb, TrMab‑6 (mouse IgG2b, κ), detected TROP2 on PA‑tagged TROP2‑overexpressing Chinese hamster ovary‑K1 (CHO/TROP2‑PA) and breast cancer cell lines, including MCF7 and BT‑474 using flow cytometry. Western blot analysis indicated a 40 kDa band in lysates prepared from CHO/TROP2‑PA, MCF7 and BT‑474 cells. Furthermore, TROP2 in 57/61 (93.4%) of the breast cancer specimens was strongly detected using immunohistochemical analysis with TrMab‑6. In conclusion, the current study demonstrated that TrMab‑6 may be a valuable tool for the detection of TROP2 in a wide variety of breast cancer types.
