Abstract

Abstract Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels are widely used to screen for prostate cancer, yet the test has poor sensitivity, specificity and predictive value, which leads to overdiagnosis and overtreatment. Alterations in the glycosylation status of PSA, including fucosylation, may offer scope for an improved biomarker. We sought to generate a monoclonal antibody (mAb) targeting α-1,6-fucosylated PSA (fuc-PSA) and to develop a tissue-based immunological assay for fuc-PSA detection. Immunogens representing fuc-PSA were used for immunisation and resultant mAbs were extensively characterised. The mAbs reacted specifically with fuc-PSA-specific glycopeptide, but not with aglycosylated PSA or glycan without the PSA peptide. Reactivity was confirmed using high-throughput surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy. X-ray crystallography investigations showed that the mAbs bound to an α-helical form of the peptide, whereas the native PSA epitope is linear. Protein unfolding was required for detection of fuc-PSA in patient samples. Peptide inhibition of fuc-PSA mAbs was observed with positive screening reagents, and target epitope specificity was observed in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue samples. This research introduces a well-characterised, first-in-class antibody targeting fuc-PSA and presents the first crystal structure of an antibody demonstrating glycosylation-specific binding to a peptide.

Abstract

We present a detailed mass spectrometric analysis of three 2 + 1 T-cell bispecific monoclonal antibodies (TCB mAbs), where an unexpected +15.9950 Da mass shift in tryptic peptides was observed. This modification was attributed to the occurrence of 5R-hydroxylysine (Hyl) using a hybrid LC–MS/MS molecular characterization and CRISPR/Cas9 gene deletion approach. The modification was found at various sites within TCB mAbs, with a conspicuous hot spot motif mirroring a prior observation where Hyl was mapped to the CH1–VH Fab domain interface of IgGs. In contrast to the preceding report, our structural modeling analysis on TCB mAbs unveiled substantial differences in the orientation and flexibility of motifs in immediate proximity and across the artificial CH1–VL cross Fab interface and upstream elbow segment. Utilizing a hybrid database search, RNAseq, and a CRISPR/Cas9 knockout methodology in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) production cell lines, procollagen-lysine, 2-oxoglutarate 5-dioxygenases (PLODs) were conclusively identified as the catalyzing enzymes accountable for the 5R-Hyl modification in TCB mAbs. To quantitatively inhibit Hyl formation in TCB mAbs, the activity of all three Chinese hamster PLOD isoenzymes needs to be depleted via CRISPR/Cas9 gene knockout. Moreover, our investigation identified cell culture iron availability, process duration, and clonal variability in CHO cells as elements influencing the levels of Hyl formation in TCB mAbs. This research offers a solution for circumventing Hyl formation in therapeutic complex mAb formats, such as TCB mAbs, produced in CHO cell culture processes, thereby addressing potential technical and biological challenges associated with unintended Hyl modification.

Abstract

Anti-tumor immunity is limited by a number of factors including the lack of fully activated T-cells, insufficient antigenic stimulation and the immune-suppressive tumor microenvironment. We addressed these hurdles by developing a novel class of immunoconjugates, Antibody-Targeted Pathogen-derived Peptides (ATPPs), which were designed to efficiently deliver viral T-cell epitopes to tumors with the aim of redirecting virus-specific memory T-cells against the tumor. ATPPs were generated through covalent binding of mature MHC class I peptides to antibodies specific for cell surface-expressed tumor antigens that mediate immunoconjugate internalization. By means of a cleavable linker, the peptides are released in the endosomal compartment, from which they are loaded into MHC class I without the need for further processing. Pulsing of tumor cells with ATPPs was found to sensitize these for recognition by virus-specific CD8+ T-cells with much greater efficiency than exogenous loading with free peptides. Systemic injection of ATPPs into tumor-bearing mice enhanced the recruitment of virus-specific T-cells into the tumor and, when combined with immune checkpoint blockade, suppressed tumor growth. Our data thereby demonstrate the potential of ATPPs as a means of kick-starting the immune response against “cold” tumors and increasing the efficacy of checkpoint inhibitors.

Abstract

Background: Total tau (tTau) and phosphorylated 181P tau (pTau) are supportive diagnostic cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease. Manual CSF tau assays are limited by lot-to-lot and between-laboratory variability and long incubation/turnaround times. Elecsys® Total-Tau CSF and Phospho-Tau (181P) CSF immunoassays were developed for fully automated cobas e analyzers, allowing broader access in clinical practice and trials. Methods: Analytical performance, reproducibility, method comparisons with commercially available assays, and lot-to-lot and platform comparability (cobas e 601/411) of the Elecsys® CSF assays were assessed. Tau distributions and concentration ranges were evaluated in CSF samples from two clinical cohorts. Results: Both assays showed high sensitivity (limit of quantitation [LoQ]: 63 pg/mL [tTau]; 4 pg/mL [pTau]) and linearity over the measuring range (80–1300 pg/mL; 8–120 pg/mL), which covered the entire concentration range measured in clinical samples. Lot-to-lot and platform comparability demonstrated good consistency (Pearson's r: 0.998; 1.000). Multicenter evaluation coefficients of variation (CVs): repeatability, < 1.8%; intermediate precision, < 2.8%; between-laboratory variability, < 2.7% (both assays); and total reproducibility, < 6.7% (tTau) and < 4.7% (pTau). Elecsys® CSF assays demonstrated good correlation with commercially available tau assays. Conclusions: Elecsys® Total-Tau CSF and Phospho-Tau (181P) CSF assays demonstrate good analytical performance with clinically relevant measuring ranges; data support their use in clinical trials and practice.

Abstract

Recent success of T cell based cancer immunotherapy approaches like chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CAR-Ts) and especially bispecific T cell engagers (BiTEs) has suggested great potential for cancer therapy. However, these technologies have several drawbacks like high risks for side-effects, such as autoimmunity, as well as inappropriate T cell activation due to a non-natural synapse. Hence, we sought to use antibody-mediated delivery of viral peptides to tumor cells in order to mimic viral infection and induce tumor cell lysis by virus-specific cytotoxic CD8+ T cells. Here, we generated immunoconjugates called antibody-targeted pathogen-derived peptides (ATPPs), where mature virus-derived MHC class I peptides from Influenza A or Epstein-Barr virus were conjugated to a tumor-associated antigen-specific antibody via a disulfide bond. Using optical imaging in combination with fluorescence resonance energy transfer, we revealed that after ATPP binding to the target antigen and subsequent internalization, the peptides are released in endosomes and loaded onto recycling MHC class I complexes. These peptide-MHC complexes are subsequently presented on the cell surface and mediate activation of human peptide-specific CD8+ T cells as shown by Interferon-γ release using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Moreover, ATPP-loaded cancer cells from different tumor types were efficiently killed in vitro by human CD8+ T cells in a dose-dependent manner, reaching up to 100% killing after 24h at 0,13nM with an effector-to-target ratio of 3:1. Tumor cell death was assessed by the xCELLigence system as well as lactate dehydrogenase quantification in the supernatant. Interestingly, ATPPs were about 1000-times more potent than free peptide, while antibody alone, a non-cleavable ATPP construct, as well as peptides conjugated to a non-binding antibody exhibited no effects. Importantly, all used antibodies carried the P329G/LALA mutation for abolished Fc-receptor binding. In addition, we performed an experimental subcutaneous xenograft in vivo study with PDL1-expressing MDA-MB231 breast cancer cells in NOG mice in combination with anti-PD1 treatment. We observed that ATPPs successfully recruited adoptively transferred human peptide-specific CD8+ T cells into the tumor and induced 60% tumor growth inhibition of an established tumor after 3 weeks in the anti-PD1 combination setting. Altogether, we generated first in class immunoconjugates for antibody-targeted loading of cancer cells with foreign MHC-I restricted peptide antigens. Our results demonstrate potent ATPP-mediated antitumor efficacy in vitro and in vivo, by loading tumor cells with viral peptide antigens and redirecting virus-specific cytotoxic T cells against cancer.

Abstract

Background: Lysine demethylases reverse Nϵ-methylation in a sequence- and methylation-selective manner. Results: Enzyme-histone interactions away from the conserved oxygenase active site are important in determining sequence selectivity in the JMJD2 (KDM4) subfamily. Conclusion: The catalytic JmjC domain determines sequence selectivity for at least some JmjC demethylases. Significance: This work might be a basis for the development of selective inhibitors., Nϵ-Methylations of histone lysine residues play critical roles in cell biology by “marking” chromatin for transcriptional activation or repression. Lysine demethylases reverse Nϵ-methylation in a sequence- and methylation-selective manner. The determinants of sequence selectivity for histone demethylases have been unclear. The human JMJD2 (KDM4) H3K9 and H3K36 demethylases can be divided into members that act on both H3K9 and H3K36 and H3K9 alone. Kinetic, crystallographic, and mutagenetic studies in vitro and in cells on KDM4A–E reveal that selectivity is determined by multiple interactions within the catalytic domain but outside the active site. Structurally informed phylogenetic analyses reveal that KDM4A–C orthologues exist in all genome-sequenced vertebrates with earlier animals containing only a single KDM4 enzyme. KDM4D orthologues only exist in eutherians (placental mammals) where they are conserved, including proposed substrate sequence-determining residues. The results will be useful for the identification of inhibitors for specific histone demethylases.

Abstract

Mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenases (IDHs) have a gain-of-function effect leading to R(-)-2-hydroxyglutarate (R-2HG) accumulation. By using biochemical, structural and cellular assays, we show that either or both R- and S-2HG inhibit 2-oxoglutarate (2OG)-dependent oxygenases with varying potencies. Half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC(50)) values for the R-form of 2HG varied from approximately 25 μM for the histone N(ɛ)-lysine demethylase JMJD2A to more than 5 mM for the hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) prolyl hydroxylase. The results indicate that candidate oncogenic pathways in IDH-associated malignancy should include those that are regulated by other 2OG oxygenases than HIF hydroxylases, in particular those involving the regulation of histone methylation.
