RESUMEN

Overexpression of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) in breast and gastric cancers is an important target for monoclonal antibody (mAb) therapy. All therapeutic mAbs, including anti-HER2 mAbs, exhibit adverse effects probably due to the recognition of antigens expressed in normal cells. Therefore, tumor-selective or specific mAbs can be beneficial in reducing the adverse effects. In this study, we established a novel cancer-specific anti-HER2 monoclonal antibody, named H2Mab-250/H2CasMab-2 (IgG1, kappa). H2Mab-250 reacted with HER2-positive breast cancer BT-474 and SK-BR-3 cells. Importantly, H2Mab-250 did not react with nontransformed normal epithelial cells (HaCaT and MCF 10A) and immortalized normal epithelial cells in flow cytometry. In contrast, most anti-HER2 mAbs, such as H2Mab-119 and trastuzumab reacted with both cancer and normal epithelial cells. Immunohistochemical analysis demonstrated that H2Mab-250 possesses much higher reactivity to the HER2-positive breast cancer tissues compared with H2Mab-119, and did not react with normal tissues, including heart, breast, stomach, lung, colon, kidney, and esophagus. The epitope mapping demonstrated that the Trp614 of HER2 domain IV mainly contributes to the recognition by H2Mab-250. H2Mab-250 could contribute to the development of chimeric antigen receptor-T or antibody-drug conjugates without adverse effects for breast cancer therapy.

RESUMEN

The C-X-C motif chemokine receptor-1 (CXCR1) is a rhodopsin-like G-protein-coupled receptor, expressed on the cell surface of immune cells and tumors. CXCR1 interacts with some C-X-C chemokines, such as CXCL6, CXCL7, and CXCL8/interleukin-8, which are produced by various cells. Since CXCR1 is involved in several diseases including tumors and diabetes mellitus, drugs targeting CXCR1 have been developed. Therefore, the development of sensitive monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) for CXCR1 has been desired for the diagnosis and treatment. This study established a novel anti-mouse CXCR1 (mCXCR1) mAb, Cx1Mab-1 (rat IgG1, kappa), using the Cell-Based Immunization and Screening method. Cx1Mab-1 reacted with mCXCR1-overexpressed Chinese hamster ovary-K1 (CHO/mCXCR1) and mCXCR1-overexpressed LN229 glioblastoma (LN229/mCXCR1) in flow cytometry. Cx1Mab-1 demonstrated a high binding affinity for CHO/mCXCR1 and LN229/mCXCR1 with a dissociation constant of 2.6 × 10-9 M and 2.1 × 10-8 M, respectively. Furthermore, Cx1Mab-1 could detect mCXCR1 by Western blot analysis. These results indicated that Cx1Mab-1 is useful for detecting mCXCR1, and provides a possibility for targeting mCXCR1-expressing cells in vivo experiments.

RESUMEN

The giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) is one of the important species in worldwide animal conservation. Because it is essential to understand the disease of giant panda for conservation, histopathological analyses of tissues are important to understand the pathogenesis. However, monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against giant panda-derived proteins are limited. Podoplanin (PDPN) is an essential marker of lung type I alveolar epithelial cells, kidney podocytes, and lymphatic endothelial cells. PDPN is also overexpressed in various human tumors, which are associated with poor prognosis. Here, an anti-giant panda PDPN (gpPDPN) mAb, PMab-314 (mouse IgG1, kappa) was established using the Cell-Based Immunization and Screening method. PMab-314 recognized N-terminal PA16-tagged gpPDPN-overexpressed Chinese hamster ovary-K1 cells (CHO/PA16-gpPDPN) in flow cytometry. The KD value of PMab-314 for CHO/PA16-gpPDPN was determined as 1.3 × 10-8 M. Furthermore, PMab-314 is useful for detecting gpPDPN in western blot analysis. These findings indicate that PMab-314 is a useful tool for the analyses of gpPDPN-expressed cells.

RESUMEN

CD44 is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein and possesses various isoforms which are largely classified into CD44 standard (CD44s) and CD44 variant (CD44v) isoforms. Some variant-encoded regions play critical roles in tumor progression. However, the function of CD44 variant 4 (CD44v4)-encoded region has not been fully understood. Using peptide immunization, we developed an anti-CD44v4 monoclonal antibody, C44Mab-108, which is useful for flow cytometry, western blotting, and immunohistochemistry. In this study, we determined the critical epitope of C44Mab-108 by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). We used the alanine (or glycine)-substituted peptides of the CD44v4-encoded region (amino acids 271-290 of human CD44v3-10) and found that C44Mab-108 did not recognize the alanine-substituted peptides of D280A and W281A. Furthermore, these peptides could not inhibit the recognition of C44Mab-108 in flow cytometry and immunohistochemistry. The results indicate that the critical binding epitope of C44Mab-108 includes Asp280 and Trp281 of CD44v3-10.

RESUMEN

C-X-C motif chemokine receptor 3 (CXCR3, CD183) is a G-protein-coupled receptor for CXCL9, CXCL10, and CXCL11. CXCR3 induces chemotaxis of immune cells and promotes inflammation. Various mouse models have been developed to mimic the pathogenesis of diseases and used in the evaluation of therapeutics for these diseases. Although CXCR3 is an attractive target to suppress inflammation, anti-CXCR3 therapeutic agents have not been approved. In this study, we established a novel anti-mouse CXCR3 (mCXCR3) monoclonal antibody, Cx3Mab-4 (rat IgG1, kappa), using the Cell-Based Immunization and Screening method. Flow cytometric analysis demonstrated that Cx3Mab-4 bound to mCXCR3-overexpressed Chinese hamster ovary-K1 (CHO/mCXCR3) cells, but did not react to parental CHO-K1 cells. The dissociation constant of Cx3Mab-4 was determined as 1.3 × 10-9 M, indicating that Cx3Mab-4 possesses a high affinity to mCXCR3-expressing cells. Cx3Mab-4 could be useful for targeting CXCR3-expressing cells in preclinical mouse models.

RESUMEN

A current challenge is the emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants, such as BQ.1.1 and XBB.1.5, that can evade immune defenses, thereby limiting antibody drug effectiveness. Emergency-use antibody drugs, including the widely effective bebtelovimab, are losing their benefits. One potential approach to address this issue are bispecific antibodies which combine the targeting abilities of two antibodies with distinct epitopes. We engineered neutralizing bispecific antibodies in the IgG-scFv format from two initially non-neutralizing antibodies, CvMab-6 (which binds to the receptor-binding domain [RBD]) and CvMab-62 (targeting a spike protein S2 subunit epitope adjacent to the known anti-S2 antibody epitope). Furthermore, we created a bispecific antibody by incorporating the scFv of bebtelovimab with our anti-S2 antibody, demonstrating significant restoration of effectiveness against bebtelovimab-resistant BQ.1.1 variants. This study highlights the potential of neutralizing bispecific antibodies, which combine existing less effective anti-RBD antibodies with anti-S2 antibodies, to revive the effectiveness of antibody therapeutics compromised by immune-evading variants.

RESUMEN

A cell-surface ectonucleotidase CD39 mediates the conversion of extracellular adenosine triphosphate into immunosuppressive adenosine with another ectonucleotidase CD73. The elevated adenosine in the tumor microenvironment attenuates antitumor immunity, which promotes tumor cell immunologic escape and progression. Anti-CD39 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), which suppress the enzymatic activity, can be applied to antitumor therapy. Therefore, an understanding of the relationship between the inhibitory activity and epitope of mAbs is important. We previously established an anti-mouse CD39 (anti-mCD39) mAb, C39Mab-1 using the Cell-Based Immunization and Screening method. In this study, we determined the critical epitope of C39Mab-1 using flow cytometry. We performed the PA tag (12 amino acids [aa])-substituted analysis (named PA scanning) and RIEDL tag (5 aa)-substituted analysis (named RIEDL scanning) to determine the critical epitope of C39Mab-1 using flow cytometry. By the combination of PA scanning and RIEDL scanning, we identified the conformational epitope, spanning three segments of 275-279, 282-291, and 306-323 aa of mCD39. These analyses would contribute to the identification of the conformational epitope of membrane proteins.

RESUMEN

C-C motif chemokine receptor 1 (CCR1/CD191) is a member of G-protein-coupled receptors and is expressed on myeloid cells, such as neutrophils and macrophages. Because the CCR1 signaling promotes tumor expansion in the tumor microenvironment (TME), the modification of TME is an effective strategy for cancer therapy. Although CCR1 is an attractive target for solid tumors and hematological malignancies, therapeutic agents for CCR1 have not been approved. Here, we established a novel anti-mouse CCR1 (mCCR1) monoclonal antibody (mAb), C1Mab-6 (rat IgG2b, kappa), using the Cell-Based Immunization and Screening method. Flow cytometry and Western blot analyses showed that C1Mab-6 recognizes mCCR1 specifically. The dissociation constant of C1Mab-6 for mCCR1-overexpressed Chinese hamster ovary-K1 was determined as 3.9 × 10-9 M, indicating that C1Mab-6 possesses a high affinity to mCCR1. These results suggest that C1Mab-6 could be a useful tool for targeting mCCR1 in preclinical mouse models.

RESUMEN

Overexpression of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) in breast and gastric cancers is associated with a poor prognosis, making it an important therapeutic target. Here, we establish a novel cancer-specific anti-HER2 antibody, H2Mab-214. H2Mab-214 reacts with HER2 on cancer cells, but unlike the therapeutic antibody trastuzumab, it does not react with HER2 on normal cells in flow cytometry measurements. A crystal structure suggests that H2Mab-214 recognizes a structurally disrupted region in the HER2 domain IV, which normally forms a ß-sheet. We show that this misfolding is inducible by site-directed mutagenesis mimicking the disulfide bond defects that also may occur in cancer cells, indicating that the local misfolding in the Cys-rich domain IV governs the cancer-specificity of H2Mab-214. Furthermore, we show that H2Mab-214 effectively suppresses tumor growth in xenograft mouse models. Our findings offer a potential strategy for developing cancer-specific therapeutic antibodies that target partially misfolded cell surface receptors.

RESUMEN

Monoclonal antibody (mAb)-based and/or cell-based immunotherapies provide innovative approaches to cancer treatments. However, safety concerns over targeting normal cells expressing reactive antigens still exist. Therefore, the development of cancer-specific mAbs (CasMabs) that recognize cancer-specific antigens with in vivo antitumor efficacy is required to minimize the adverse effects. We previously screened anti-human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) mAbs and successfully established a cancer-specific anti-HER2 mAb, H2Mab-250/H2CasMab-2 (IgG1, kappa). In this study, we showed that H2Mab-250 reacted with HER2-positive breast cancer cells but did not show reactivity to normal epithelial cells in flow cytometry. In contrast, a clinically approved anti-HER2 mAb, trastuzumab, recognized both breast cancer and normal epithelial cells. We further compared the affinity, effector activation, and antitumor effect of H2Mab-250 with trastuzumab. The results showed that H2Mab-250 exerted a comparable antitumor effect with trastuzumab in the mouse xenograft models of BT-474 and SK-BR-3, although H2Mab-250 possessed a lower affinity and effector activation than trastuzumab in vitro. H2Mab-250 could contribute to the development of chimeric antigen receptor-T or antibody-drug conjugates without adverse effects for breast cancer therapy.

RESUMEN

CD39 is involved in adenosine metabolism by converting extracellular ATP to adenosine. As extracellular adenosine plays a critical role in the immune suppression of the tumor microenvironment, the inhibition of CD39 activity by monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) is one of the important strategies for tumor therapy. This study developed specific and sensitive mAbs for mouse CD39 (mCD39) using the Cell-Based Immunization and Screening method. The established anti-mCD39 mAb, C39Mab-1 (rat IgG2a, kappa), reacted with mCD39-overexpressed Chinese hamster ovary-K1 (CHO/mCD39) by flow cytometry. The kinetic analysis using flow cytometry indicated that the dissociation constant of C39Mab-1 for CHO/mCD39 was 7.3 × 10-9 M. Furthermore, C39Mab-1 detected the lysate of CHO/mCD39 by western blot analysis. These results indicated that C39Mab-1 is useful for the detection of mCD39 in many functional studies.

RESUMEN

Immune checkpoint blockade therapy has shown successful clinical outcomes in multiple human cancers. In dogs, several types of tumors resemble human tumors in many respects. Therefore, several groups have developed the anti-dog programmed cell death ligand 1 (dPD-L1) monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and showed efficacy in several canine tumors. To examine the abundance of dPD-L1 in canine tumors, anti-dPD-L1 diagnostic mAbs for immunohistochemistry are required. In this study, we immunized the peptide in the dPD-L1 intracellular domain, and established anti-dPD-L1 mAbs, L1Mab-352 (mouse IgG1, kappa), and L1Mab-354 (mouse IgG1, kappa). In enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, L1Mab-352 and L1Mab-354 showed high-binding affinity to the dPD-L1 peptide, and the dissociation constants (KD) were determined as 6.9 × 10-10 M and 7.2 × 10-10 M, respectively. Furthermore, L1Mab-352 and L1Mab-354 were applicable for the detection of dPD-L1 in immunohistochemical analysis in paraffin-embedded dPD-L1-overexpressed cells. These results indicated that L1Mab-352 and L1Mab-354 are useful for detecting dPD-L1 in immunohistochemical analysis.

RESUMEN

Breast cancer patients with high levels of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) expression have worse clinical outcomes. Anti-HER2 monoclonal antibody (mAb) is the most important therapeutic modality for HER2-positive breast cancer. We previously immunized mice with the ectodomain of HER2 to create the anti-HER2 mAb, H2 Mab-77 (mouse IgG1 , kappa). This was then altered to produce H2 Mab-77-mG2a -f, an afucosylated mouse IgG2a . In the present work, we examined the reactivity of H2 Mab-77-mG2a -f and antitumor effects against breast cancers in vitro and in vivo. BT-474, an endogenously HER2-expressing breast cancer cell line, was identified by H2 Mab-77-mG2a -f with a strong binding affinity (a dissociation constant [KD ]: 5.0 × 10-9 M). H2 Mab-77-mG2a -f could stain HER2 of breast cancer tissues in immunohistochemistry and detect HER2 protein in Western blot analysis. Furthermore, H2 Mab-77-mG2a -f demonstrated strong antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC) for BT-474 cells. MDA-MB-468, a HER2-negative breast cancer cell line, was unaffected by H2 Mab-77-mG2a -f. Additionally, in the BT-474-bearing tumor xenograft model, H2 Mab-77-mG2a -f substantially suppressed tumor development when compared with the control mouse IgG2a mAb. In contrast, the HER2-negative MDA-MB-468-bearing tumor xenograft model showed no response to H2 Mab-77-mG2a -f. These findings point to the possibility of H2 Mab-77-mG2a -f as a treatment regimen by showing that it has antitumor effects on HER2-positive breast tumors.

RESUMEN

The CXC chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4, CD184) is a member of the G protein-coupled receptor family that is expressed in most leukocytes. Overexpression of CXCR4 is associated with poor prognosis in not only hematopoietic malignancy but also solid tumors. Because CXCR4 is an attractive target for tumor therapy, reliable preclinical murine models using anti-CXCR4 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) have been warranted. This study established a novel anti-mouse CXCR4 (mCXCR4) mAb using the Cell-Based Immunization and Screening method. Flow cytometric analysis showed that an anti-mCXCR4 mAb, Cx4Mab-1 (rat IgG2a, kappa), recognized mCXCR4-overexpressed Chinese hamster ovary-K1 (CHO/mCXCR4) cells and endogenously mCXCR4-expressing mouse myeloma P3X63Ag8U.1 (P3U1) cells. Furthermore, Cx4Mab-1 did not recognize mCXCR4-knockout P3U1 cells. The dissociation constants of Cx4Mab-1 for CHO/mCXCR4 and P3U1 were determined as 6.4 × 10-9 M and 2.3 × 10-9 M, respectively, indicating that Cx4Mab-1 possesses a high affinity to both endogenous and exogenous mCXCR4-expressing cells. These results indicate that Cx4Mab-1 could be a useful tool for preclinical mouse models.

RESUMEN

Combination immunotherapy with multiple immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) has been approved for various types of malignancies, including malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM). Podoplanin (PDPN), a transmembrane sialomucin-like glycoprotein, has been investigated as a diagnostic marker and therapeutic target for MPM. We previously generated and developed a PDPN-targeting Ab reagent with high Ab-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC). However, the effects of anti-PDPN Abs on various tumor-infiltrating immune cells and their synergistic effects with ICIs have remained unclear. In the present study, we established a novel rat-mouse chimeric anti-mouse PDPN IgG2a mAb (PMab-1-mG2a ) and its core-fucose-deficient Ab (PMab-1-mG2a -f) to address these limitations. We identified the ADCC and CDC activity of PMab-1-mG2a -f against the PDPN-expressing mesothelioma cell line AB1-HA. The antitumor effect of monotherapy with PMab-1-mG2a -f was not sufficient to overcome tumor progression in AB1-HA-bearing immunocompetent mice. However, PMab-1-mG2a -f enhanced the antitumor effects of CTLA-4 blockade. Combination therapy with anti-PDPN Ab and anti-CTLA-4 Ab increased tumor-infiltrating natural killer (NK) cells. The depletion of NK cells inhibited the synergistic effects of PMab-1-mG2a -f and CTLA-4 blockade in vivo. These findings indicated the essential role of NK cells in novel combination immunotherapy targeting PDPN and shed light on the therapeutic strategy in advanced MPM.

RESUMEN

Receptor proteins, such as epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), interact with other proteins in the extracellular region of the cell membrane to drive intracellular signalling. Therefore, analysis of extracellular protein-protein interactions (exPPIs) is important for understanding the biological function of receptor proteins. Here, we present an approach using a proximity biotinylation enzyme (AirID) fusion fragment of antigen binding (FabID) to analyse the proximity exPPIs of EGFR. AirID was C-terminally fused to the Fab fragment against EGFR (EGFR-FabID), which could then biotinylate the extracellular region of EGFR in several cell lines. Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis indicated that many known EGFR interactors were identified as proximity exPPIs, along with many unknown candidate interactors, using EGFR-FabID. Interestingly, these proximity exPPIs were influenced by treatment with EGF ligand and its specific kinase inhibitor, gefitinib. These results indicate that FabID provides accurate proximity exPPI analysis of target receptor proteins on cell membranes with ligand and drug responses.

RESUMEN

In small animal models of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronaviruses (SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2) infection, ferrets (Mustela putorius furo) have been used to investigate the pathogenesis. Podoplanin (PDPN) is an essential marker in lung type I alveolar epithelial cells, kidney podocytes, and lymphatic endothelial cells. Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against ferret PDPN (ferPDPN) are useful for the pathological analyses of those tissues. We previously established an anti-ferPDPN mAb, PMab-292 using the Cell-Based Immunization and Screening (CBIS) method. In this study, we determined the critical epitope of PMab-292 using flow cytometry. The ferPDPN deletion mutants analysis revealed that the Val34 is located at the N-terminus of the PMab-292 epitope. Furthermore, the PA tag-substituted analysis (PA scanning) showed that Asp39 is located at the C-terminus of PMab-292 epitope. The epitope sequence (VRPEDD) also exists between Val26 and Asp31 of ferPDPN, indicating that PMab-292 recognizes the tandem repeat of the VRPEDD sequence of ferPDPN.

RESUMEN

By converting extracellular adenosine triphosphate to adenosine, CD39 is involved in adenosine metabolism. The extracellular adenosine plays a critical role in the immune suppression of the tumor microenvironment. Therefore, the inhibition of CD39 activity by monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) is thought to be one of the important strategies for tumor therapy. In this study, we developed novel mAbs for mouse CD39 (mCD39) using the Cell-Based Immunization and Screening (CBIS) method. One of the established anti-mCD39 mAbs, C39Mab-2 (rat IgG2a, lambda), reacted with mCD39-overexpressed Chinese hamster ovary-K1 (CHO/mCD39) and an endogenously mCD39-expressed cell line (SN36) by flow cytometry. The kinetic analysis using flow cytometry indicated that the dissociation constant (KD) values of C39Mab-2 for CHO/mCD39 and SN36 were 5.5 × 10-9 M and 4.9 × 10-9 M, respectively. These results indicated that C39Mab-2 is useful for the detection of mCD39 in flow cytometry.

RESUMEN

Immunohistochemistry staining is an essential method in pathological diagnoses. Podoplanin (PDPN) is a specific maker of alveolar epithelium, lymphatic vessels, and glomeruli. In this study, we established a novel anti-giraffe PDPN (girPDPN) mAb, PMab-301, using the Cell-Based Immunization and Screening (CBIS) method. PMab-301 (mouse IgG1, kappa) detected girPDPN in various applications, such as flow cytometry, western blot, and immunohistochemistry. PMab-301 specifically stained type-I alveolar cells using formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded giraffe lung tissues. Our findings suggest the potential usefulness of PMab-301 for the pathophysiological analyses of giraffe tissues.

RESUMEN

A cancer-specific anti-PDPN mAb, LpMab-23 (mouse IgG1, kappa), was established in our previous study. We herein produced a humanized IgG1 version (humLpMab-23) and defucosylated form (humLpMab-23-f) of an anti-PDPN mAb to increase ADCC activity. humLpMab-23 recognized PDPN-overexpressed Chinese hamster ovary (CHO)-K1 (CHO/PDPN), PDPN-positive PC-10 (human lung squamous cell carcinoma), and LN319 (human glioblastoma) cells via flow cytometry. We then demonstrated that humLpMab-23-f induced ADCC and complement-dependent cytotoxicity against CHO/PDPN, PC-10, and LN319 cells in vitro and exerted high antitumor activity in mouse xenograft models, indicating that humLpMab-23-f could be useful as an antibody therapy against PDPN-positive lung squamous cell carcinomas and glioblastomas.
