RESUMO
Background and Aims: Prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is specifically expressed on prostate epithelial cells and markedly overexpressed in almost all prostate cancers. TRIM24 is also up-regulated from localized prostate cancer to metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Because of the high relevance of TRIM24 for cancer development and the universal expression of PSMA in CPRC, we investigated the efficacy of human monoclonal PSMA antibody (PSMAb)-based platform for the targeted TRIM24 siRNA delivery and its therapeutic efficacy in CRPC in vivo and in vitro. Methods: The therapeutic complexes were constructed by conjugating PSMAb and sulfo-SMCC-protamine, and encapsulating TRIM24 siRNA. Flow cytometry, immunofluorescence, and fluorescence imaging were performed to detect the receptor-binding, internalization, and targeted delivery of PSMAb-sulfo-SMCC-protamine (PSP)-FAM-siRNA complex (PSPS) in vitro and in vivo. CCK-8, plate-colony formation, apoptosis, cell cycle, and Transwell assays were performed to evaluate the therapeutic potential of the PSP-TRIM24 siRNA complex in vitro, whereas the in vivo therapeutic efficacy was monitored by small animal imaging, radiography, and micro CT. Results: We confirmed that PSP could efficiently protect siRNA from enzymatic digestion, enable targeted delivery of siRNA, and internalize and release siRNA into PSMA-positive (PSMA+) prostate cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. Silencing TRIM24 expression by the PSP-TRIM24 siRNA complex could dramatically suppress proliferation, colony-formation, and invasion of PSMA+ CRPC cells in vitro, and inhibit tumor growth of PSMA+ CRPC xenografts and bone loss in PSMA+ CRPC bone metastasis model without obvious toxicity at therapeutic doses in vivo. Conclusion: PSMAb mediated TRIM24 siRNA delivery platform could significantly inhibit cell proliferation, colony-formation, and invasion in PSMA+ CRPC in vitro and suppressed tumor growth and bone loss in PSMA+ CRPC xenograft and bone metastasis model.

It is widely acknowledged that interleukin 17-producing T helper (Th17) cells are critically participant in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis. In the current study, we identified that the expression of CD4+T cells specific co-inhibitory molecule B7-homologue 1(B7-H1) in spleenocytes and mononuclear cells isolated from brains and spinal cord were positive correlated with Th1 and Th17 cells generation and disease severity in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). Furthermore, B7-H1 transgenic mice developed milder EAE symptoms and fewer Th17 cells than B7-H1 wild type mice. We also found the proliferation of naïve CD4+CD62+T cells isolated from B7-H1 transgenic mice was inhibited. And naïve T cells isolated from B7-H1 transgenic mice produced fewer Th17 cells than WT mice in Th17-polarizing conditions, but the Th1, Th2, and inducible Treg differentiation were the similar in naïve T cells isolated from B7-H1 transgenic mice and WT mice. In conclusion, our study show CD4+T cells specific B7-H1 is a slective inhibitor in proliferation of naïve T cells, Th17 differentiation and pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis.
