Biodegradable Patches for Arterial Reconstruction Modified with RGD Peptides: Results of an Experimental Study.

ABSTRACT: Modification by Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) peptides is a promising approach to improve the biocompatibility of biodegradable vascular patches for arteriotomy. In this study, we evaluated the performance of vascular patches electrospun using a blend of polycaprolactone (PCL) and polyhydroxybutyrate/valerate (PHBV) and additionally modified with RGDK, AhRGD, and c[RGDFK] peptides using 1,6-hexamethylenediamine or 4,7,10-trioxa-1,13-tridecanediamine (TTDDA) linkers. We examined mechanical properties and hemocompatibility of resulting patches before implanting them in rat abdominal aortas to assess their performance in vivo. Patches were explanted 1, 3, 6, and 12 months postoperation followed by histological and immunofluorescence analyses. Patches manufactured from the human internal mammary artery or commercially available KemPeriplas-Neo xenopericardial patches were used as a control. The tensile strength and F max of KemPeriplas-Neo patches were 4- and 16.7-times higher than those made of human internal mammary artery, respectively. Both RGD-modified and unmodified PHBV/PCL patches demonstrated properties similar to a human internal mammary artery patch. Regardless of RGD modification, experimental PHBV/PCL patches displayed fewer lysed red blood cells and resulted in milder platelet aggregation than KemPeriplas-Neo patches. Xenopericardial patches failed to form an endothelial layer in vivo and were prone to calcification. By contrast, TTDDA/RGDK-modified biodegradable patches demonstrated a resistance to calcification. Modification by TTDDA/RGDK and TTDDA/c[RGDFK] facilitated the formation of neovasculature upon the implantation in vivo.

Project description:Direct bromination of the tyrosine residues of peptides and antibodies with bromine-76, to create probes for PET imaging, has been reported. For peptides that do not contain tyrosine residues, however, a prosthetic group is required to achieve labeling via conjugation to other functional groups such as terminal ?-amines or lysine ?-amines. The goal of this study was to develop new strategies for labeling small peptides with Br-76 using either a direct labeling method or a prosthetic group, depending on the available functional group on the peptides. A new labeling agent, N-succinimidyl-3-[(76)Br]bromo-2,6-dimethoxybenzoate ([(76)Br]SBDMB) was prepared for cyclic RGD peptide labeling. N-succinimidyl-2, 6-dimethoxybenzoate was also used to pre-attach a 2, 6-dimethoxybenzoyl (DMB) moiety to the peptide, which could then be labeled with Br-76. A competitive cell binding assay was performed to determine the binding affinity of the brominated peptides. PET imaging of U87MG human glioblastoma xenografted mice was performed using [(76)Br]-BrE[c(RGDyK)](2) and [(76)Br]-BrDMB-E[c(RGDyK)](2). An ex vivo biodistribution assay was performed to confirm PET quantification. The mechanisms of bromination reaction between DMB-c(RGDyK) and the brominating agent CH(3)COOBr were investigated with the SCRF-B3LYP/6-31G* method with the Gaussian 09 program package. The yield for direct labeling of c(RGDyK) and E[c(RGDyK)](2) using chloramine-T and peracetic acid at ambient temperature was greater than 50%. The yield for [(76)Br]SBDMB was over 60% using peracetic acid. The conjugation yields for labeling c(RGDfK) and c(RGDyK) were over 70% using the prosthetic group at room temperature. Labeling yield for pre-conjugated peptides was over 60%. SDMB conjugation and bromination did not affect the binding affinity of the peptides with integrin receptors. Both [(76)Br]Br-E[c(RGDyK)](2) and [(76)Br]BrDMB-E[c(RGDyK)](2) showed high tumor uptake in U87MG tumor bearing mice. The specificity of the imaging tracers was confirmed by decreased tumor uptake after co-administration of unlabeled dimeric RGD peptides. The energy barrier of the transition state of bromination for the dimethoxybenzoyl group was about 9 kcal/mol lower than that for the tyrosine residue. In conclusion, the newly developed N-succinimidyl-2, 6-dimethoxybenzoate molecule can be used either for one step labeling through pre-conjugation or as the precursor for a Br-76 labeled prosthetic group for indirect labeling. Radiobromination on a dimethoxybenzoyl group has selectivity over radiobromination on tyrosine. The energy barrier difference of the transition states of bromination between the dimethoxybenzoyl group and the tyrosine residue may account for the reaction selectivity when both groups are present in the same molecule.
