NUCLEAR pore complex ,TREATMENT effectiveness - Abstract
Nuclear targeting of therapeutics provides a strategy for enhancing efficacy of molecules active in the nucleus and minimizing off-target effects. 'Active' nuclear-directed transport and efficient translocations across nuclear pore complexes provide the most effective means of maximizing nuclear localization. Nuclear-targeting systems based on nuclear localization signal (NLS) motifs have progressed significantly since the beginning of the current millennium. Here, we offer a roadmap for understanding the basic mechanisms of nuclear import in the context of actionable therapeutic design for developing NLS-therapeutics with improved treatment efficacy.

PurposeProstate stem cell antigen (PSCA), a cell surface glycoprotein expressed in normal human prostate and bladder, is over-expressed in the majority of localized prostate cancer and most bone metastases. We have previously shown that the hu1G8 minibody, a humanized anti-PSCA antibody fragment (single-chain Fv-C(H)3 dimer, 80 kDa), can localize specifically and image PSCA-expressing xenografts at 21 h post-injection. However, the humanization and antibody fragment reformatting decreased its apparent affinity. Here, we sought to evaluate PET imaging contrast with affinity matured minibodies.MethodsYeast scFv display, involving four rounds of selection, was used to generate the three affinity matured antibody fragments (A2, A11, and C5) that were reformatted into minibodies. These three affinity matured anti-PSCA minibodies were characterized in vitro, and following radiolabeling with (124)I were evaluated in vivo for microPET imaging of PSCA-expressing tumors.ResultsThe A2, A11, and C5 minibody variants all demonstrated improved affinity compared to the parental (P) minibody and were ranked as follows: A2 > A11 > C5 > P. The (124)I-labeled A11 minibody demonstrated higher immunoreactivity than the parental minibody and also achieved the best microPET imaging contrast in two xenograft models, LAPC-9 (prostate cancer) and Capan-1 (pancreatic cancer), when evaluated in vivo.ConclusionOf the affinity variant minibodies tested, the A11 minibody that ranked second in affinity was selected as the best immunoPET tracer to image PSCA-expressing xenografts. This candidate is currently under development for evaluation in a pilot clinical imaging study.

An improved approach composed of an oxidation reaction in acidic [H.sub.2][O.sub.2] solution and a sequential silanization reaction using neat silane reagents for surface modification of poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) substrates was developed. This solution-phase approach is simple and convenient for some routine analytical applications in chemistry and biology laboratories and is designed for intact PDMS-based microfluidic devices, with no device postassembly required. Using this improved approach, two different functional groups, poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and amine (N[H.sub.2]), were introduced onto PDMS surfaces for passivation of nonspecific protein absorption and attachment of biomolecules, respectively. X-ray electron spectroscopy and temporal contact angle experiments were employed to monitor functional group transformation and dynamic characteristics of the PEG-grafted PDMS substrates; fluorescent protein solutions were introduced into the PEG-grafted PDMS microchannels to test their protein repelling characteristics. These analytical data indicate that the PEG-grafted PDMS surfaces exhibit improved short-term surface dynamics and robust long-term stability. The amino-grafted PDMS microchannels are also relatively stable and can be further activated for modifications with peptide, DNA, and protein on the surfaces of microfluidic channels. The resulting biomolecule-grafted PDMS microchannels can be utilized for cell immobilization and incubation, semiquantitative DNA hybridization, and immunoassay.

Nuclear transport receptors (NTRs) are the only proteins able to transport large molecular weight payloads into the nucleus. A dominant area of molecular therapeutic research is the extension of the use of NTRs to target the nucleus for the development of pharmaceuticals or as tools for investigating fundamental biological questions. Although several examples of synthesized peptides harbouring nuclear localization signal (NLS) sequences conjugated to various payloads exist in the literature, the assumption has been that transport occurs by classical nuclear localization via the NTRs importin-α and importin-β. This assumption is relevant to nuclear-targeted therapeutics that aim for full potential clinical impact. In addition, fundamental research can benefit from unbiased approaches to investigate the role of NTRs. Herein, we report the construction of a novel NLS-modified agent composed of trastuzumab-emtansine (T-DM1) coupled to cell accumulator (Accum), a technology that enables monoclonal antibodies to escape endosome entrapment and accumulate conjugated payloads in the nucleus without abrogating affinity or specificity to target antigens. Accum harbours a classical NLS sequence from SV-40 large T-antigen. We demonstrate that routing T-DM1 to the nucleus successfully increased cytotoxic potency in the HER2-positive cell line SKBR3. More importantly, through the development of a novel bait-prey proteomic approach, we show that the non-classical NTR importin 7 and not importin-α/importin-β was required for the cytotoxicity effect. This result was validated by siRNA knock down. Our findings also indicate that by discovering an unanticipated NTR regulator of an NLS-modified agent, this study demonstrates the utility of combining an unbiased proteomic approach to probe NTR function in mammalian cell system and, is a foresight for future NLS-based development initiatives.

Introduction: Leukemia stem cells (LSCs) are believed to be responsible for initiating and propagating acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and for causing relapse after treatment. Radioimmunotherapy (RIT) targeting these cells may improve the treatment of AML, but is limited by the low density of target epitopes. Our objective was to study a human polynucleotide kinase/phosphatase (hPNKP) inhibitor that interferes with DNA repair as a radiosensitizer for the Auger electron RIT agent, 111In-NLS-7G3, which recognizes the CD123+/CD131- phenotype uniquely displayed by LSCs. Methods: The surviving fraction (SF) of CD123+/CD131- AML-5 cells exposed to 111In-NLS-7G3 (33–266 nmols/L; 0.74MBq/μg) or to γ-radiation (0.25-5Gy) was determined by clonogenic assays. The effect of A12B4C3 (25 μmols/L) combined with 111In-NLS-7G3 (16–66 nmols/L) or with γ-radiation (0.25–2Gy) on the SF of AML-5 cells was assessed. The density of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) in the nucleus was measured using the γ-H2AX assay. Cellular dosimetry was estimated based on the subcellular distribution of 111In-NLS-7G3 measured by cell fractionation. Results: Binding of 111In-NLS-7G3 to AML-5 cells was reduced by 2.2-fold in the presence of an excess (1μM) of unlabeled NLS-7G3, demonstrating specific binding to the CD123+/CD131- epitope. 111In-NLS-7G3 reduced the SF of AML-5 cells from 86.1±11.0% at 33 nmols/L to 10.5±3.6% at 266 nmols/L. Unlabeled NLS-7G3 had no significant effect on the SF. Treatment of AML-5 cells with γ-radiation reduced the SF from 98.9±14.9% at 0.25Gy to 0.03±0.1% at 5Gy. A12B4C3 combined with 111In-NLS-7G3 (16–66 nmols/L) enhanced the cytotoxicity up to 1.7-fold compared to treatment with radioimmunoconjugates alone and was associated with a 1.6-fold increase in DNA DSBs in the nucleus. A12B4C3 enhanced the cytotoxicity of γ-radiation (0.25–0.5Gy) on AML-5 cells by up to 1.5-fold, and DNA DSBs were increased by 1.7-fold. Exposure to 111In-NLS-7G3 (66 nmols/L) delivered up to 0.6Gy to AML-5 cells. Conclusions: We conclude that A12B4C3 radiosensitized AML cells to the DNA damaging effects of 111In-NLS-7G3. Combination treatment may increase the effectiveness for Auger electron RIT of AML targeting the LSC subpopulation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Biologically-based therapies increasingly rely on the endocytic cycle of internalization and exocytosis of target receptors for cancer therapies. However, receptor trafficking pathways (endosomal sorting (recycling, lysosome localization) and lateral membrane movement) are often dysfunctional in cancer. Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) have revitalized the concept of targeted chemotherapy by coupling inhibitory antibodies to cytotoxic payloads. Significant advances in ADC technology and format, and target biology have hastened the FDA approval of nine ADCs (four since 2019). Although the links between aberrant endocytic machinery and cancer are emerging, the impact of dysregulated internalization processes of ADC targets and response rates or resistance have not been well studied. This is despite the reliance on ADC uptake and trafficking to lysosomes for linker cleavage and payload release. In this review, we describe what is known about all the target antigens for the currently approved ADCs. Specifically, internalization efficiency and relevant intracellular sorting activities are described for each receptor under normal processes, and when complexed to an ADC. In addition, we discuss aberrant endocytic processes that have been directly linked to preclinical ADC resistance mechanisms. The implications of endocytosis in regard to therapeutic effectiveness in the clinic are also described. Unexpectedly, information on endocytosis is scarce (absent for two receptors). Moreover, much of what is known about endocytosis is not in the context of receptor-ADC/antibody complexes. This review provides a deeper understanding of the pertinent principles of receptor endocytosis for the currently approved ADCs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Combining the selective targeting of tumor cells through antigen-directed recognition and potent cell-killing by cytotoxic payloads, antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) have emerged in recent years as an efficient therapeutic approach for the treatment of various cancers. Besides a number of approved drugs already on the market, there is a formidable follow-up of ADC candidates in clinical development. While selection of the appropriate antibody (A) and drug payload (D) is dictated by the pharmacology of the targeted disease, one has a broader choice of the conjugating linker (C). In the present paper, we review the chemistry of ADCs with a particular emphasis on the medicinal chemistry perspective, focusing on the chemical methods that enable the efficient assembly of the ADC from its three components and the controlled release of the drug payload.

Therapeutic anti-HER2 antibodies and antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) have undoubtedly benefitted patients. Nonetheless, patients ultimately relapse—some sooner than others. Currently approved anti-HER2 drugs are expensive and their cost-effectiveness is debated. There is increased awareness that internalization and lysosomal processing including subsequent payload intracellular accumulation and retention for ADCs are critical therapeutic attributes. Although HER2 preferential overexpression on the surface of tumor cells is attractive, its poor internalization and trafficking to lysosomes has been linked to poor therapeutic outcomes. To help address such issues, this review will comprehensively detail the most relevant findings on internalization and cellular accumulation for approved and investigational anti-HER2 antibodies and ADCs. The improved clarity of the HER2 system could improve antibody and ADC designs and approaches for next-generation anti-HER2 and other receptor targeting agents. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

An improved approach composed of an oxidation reaction in acidic H2O2 solution and a sequential silanization reaction using neat silane reagents for surface modification of poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) substrates was developed. This solution-phase approach is simple and convenient for some routine analytical applications in chemistry and biology laboratories and is designed for intact PDMS-based microfluidic devices, with no device postassembly required. Using this improved approach, two different functional groups, poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and amine (NH2), were introduced onto PDMS surfaces for passivation of nonspecific protein absorption and attachment of biomolecules, respectively. X-ray electron spectroscopy and temporal contact angle experiments were employed to monitor functional group transformation and dynamic characteristics of the PEG-grafted PDMS substrates; fluorescent protein solutions were introduced into the PEG-grafted PDMS microchannels to test their protein repelling characteristics. These analytical data indicate that the PEG-grafted PDMS surfaces exhibit improved short-term surface dynamics and robust long-term stability. The amino-grafted PDMS microchannels are also relatively stable and can be further activated for modifications with peptide, DNA, and protein on the surfaces of microfluidic channels. The resulting biomolecule-grafted PDMS microchannels can be utilized for cell immobilization and incubation, semiquantitative DNA hybridization, and immunoassay. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Receptor-mediated internalization followed by trafficking and degradation of antibody-conjugates (ACs) via the endosomal-lysosomal pathway is the major mechanism for delivering molecular payloads inside target tumor cells. Although a mainstay for delivering payloads with clinically approved ACs in cancer treatment and imaging, tumor cells are often able to decrease intracellular payload concentrations and thereby reduce the effectiveness of the desired application. Thus, increasing payload intracellular accumulation has become a focus of attention for designing next-generation ACs. We developed a composite compound (ChAcNLS) that enables ACs to escape endosome entrapment and route to the nucleus resulting in the increased intracellular accumulation as an interleukin-5 receptor α-subunit (IL-5Rα)-targeted agent for muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). We constructed ⁶⁴Cu-A14-ChAcNLS, ⁶⁴Cu-A14-NLS, and ⁶⁴Cu-A14 and evaluated their performance by employing mechanistic studies for endosome escape coupled to nuclear routing and determining whether this delivery system results in improved ⁶⁴Cu cellular accumulation. ACs consisting of ∼20 ChAcNLS or NLS moieties per ⁶⁴Cu-A14 were prepared in good yield, high monomer content, and maintaining high affinity for IL-5Rα. Confocal microscopy analysis demonstrated ChAcNLS mediated efficient endosome escape and nuclear localization. ⁶⁴Cu-A14-ChAcNLS increased ⁶⁴Cu cellular accumulation in HT-1376 and HT-B9 cells relative to ⁶⁴Cu-A14 and ⁶⁴Cu-A14-NLS. In addition, we tested ⁶⁴Cu-A14-ChAcNLS in vivo to evaluate its tissue distribution properties and, ultimately, tumor uptake and targeting. A model of human IL-5Rα MIBC was developed by implanting NOD/SCID mice with subcutaneous HT-1376 or HT-B9MIBC tumors, which grow containing high and low IL-5Rα-positive tumor cell densities, respectively. ACs were intravenously injected, and daily blood sampling, biodistribution at 48 and 96 h, and positron emission tomography (PET) at 24 and 48 h were performed. Region of interest (ROI) analysis was also performed on reconstructed PET images. Pharmacokinetic analysis and biodistribution studies showed that ⁶⁴Cu-A14-ChAcNLS had faster clearance rates from the blood and healthy organs relative to ⁶⁴Cu-A14. However, ⁶⁴Cu-A14-ChAcNLS maintained comparable tumor accumulation relative to ⁶⁴Cu-A14. This resulted in ⁶⁴Cu-A14-ChAcNLS having superior tumor/normal tissue ratios at both 48 and 96 h biodistribution time points. Visualization of AC distribution by PET and ROI analysis confirmed that ⁶⁴Cu-A14-ChAcNLS had improved targeting of MIBC tumor relative to ⁶⁴Cu-A14. In addition, ⁶⁴Cu-A14 modified with only NLS had poor tumor targeting. This was a result of poor tumor uptake due to extremely rapid clearance. Thus, the overall findings in this model of human IL-5Rα-positive MIBC describe an endosome escape-nuclear localization cholic-acid-linked peptide that substantially enhances AC cellular accumulation and tumor targeting.

Despite the high interest and concern due to an increasing incidence and death rate, patients who develop muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) have few options available. However, the past decade has produced many candidate bladder tumor-specific markers but further development of these markers is still needed for creating effective targeted medications to solve this urgent need. Interleukin-5 receptor α-subunit (IL-5Rα) has recently been reported to be involved in MIBC progression. Thus, we aimed to validate IL-5Rα as a target for antibody-conjugates to better manage patients with MIBC. Patients were recruited and their tumors were processed for IL-5Rα immunohistochemical analysis. NOD/SCID mice were also heterotopically implanted with the human MIBC HT-1376 and HT-B9 cell lines and established xenografts immunohistochemically evaluated for IL-5Rα and compared against patient tumors. Using the mAb A14, an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) and a radiolabeled immunoconjugate (RIC) were developed by conjugating to vinblastine and to the positron emitter copper-64 ( 64 Cu), respectively. As a proof-of-concept for ADC and RIC efficacy, in vitro cytotoxicity and in vivo positron emission tomography (PET) imaging in tumor-bearing mice were performed, respectively. In addition, as rapid internalization and accumulation are important components for effective antibody-conjugates, we evaluated these aspects in response to IL-5 and 64 Cu-A14 treatments. Our findings suggest that although IL-5Rα protein expression is preferentially increased in MIBC, it is rapid IL-5Rα-mediated internalization allowing vinblastine-A14 to have cytotoxic activity and 64 Cu-A14 to detect MIBC tumors in vivo. This is the first report to elucidate the potential of IL-5Rα as an attractive MIBC target for antibody-conjugate applications. Refereed/Peer-reviewed

- Abstract
The next breakthrough for protein therapeutics is effective intracellular delivery and accumulation within target cells. Nuclear localization signal (NLS)-tagged therapeutics have been hindered by the lack of efficient nuclear localization due to endosome entrapment. Although development of strategies for tagging therapeutics with technologies capable of increased membrane penetration has resulted in proportional increased potency, nonspecific membrane penetration limits target specificity and, hence, widespread clinical success. There is a long-standing idea that nuclear localization of NLS-tagged agents occurs exclusively via classical nuclear transport. In the present study, we modified the antibody-drug conjugate trastuzumab-emtansine (T-DM1) with a classical NLS linked to cholic acid (cell accumulator [Accum]) that enables modified antibodies to escape endosome entrapment and increase nuclear localization efficiency without abrogating receptor targeting. In parallel, we developed a proteomics-based method to evaluate nuclear transport. Accum-modified T-DM1 significantly enhanced cytotoxic efficacy in the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive SKBR3 breast cancer system. We discovered that efficacy was dependent on the nonclassical importin-7. Our evaluation reveals that when multiple classical NLS tagging occurs, cationic charge build-up as opposed to sequence dominates and becomes a substrate for importin-7. This study results in an effective target cell-specific NLS therapeutic and a general approach to guide future NLS-based development initiatives., (© 2020 The Author(s).)

- Abstract
Patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) often relapse after initial therapy because of persistence of leukemic stem cells that frequently express the IL-3 receptor alpha chain CD123. Natural killer (NK) cell-based therapeutic strategies for AML show promise and we explore the NK cell lines, NK-92 and CD16
+ NK-92, as a treatment for AML. NK-92 has been tested in phase I clinical trials with minimal toxicity; irradiation prior to infusion prevents risk of engraftment. The CD16 negative NK-92 parental line was genetically modified to express the high affinity Fc gamma receptor, enabling antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity, which we utilized in combination with an anti-CD123 antibody to target leukemic stem cells. NK-92 was preferentially cytotoxic against leukemic stem and progenitor cells compared with bulk leukemia in in vitro assays, while CD16+ NK-92 in combination with an anti-CD123 mAb mediated antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity against CD123+ leukemic targets. Furthermore, NK-92 infusions (with or without prior irradiation) improved survival in a primary AML xenograft model. Mice xenografted with primary human AML cells had a superior survival when treated with irradiated CD16+ NK-92 cells and an anti-CD123 monoclonal antibody (7G3) versus treatment with irradiated CD16+ NK-92 cells combined with an isotype control antibody. In this proof-of-principle study, we show for the first time that a CD16+ NK-92 cell line combined with an antibody that targets a leukemic stem cell antigen can lead to improved survival in a relevant pre-clinical model of AML., (Copyright © 2018 Ferrata Storti Foundation.)- Published

Exposure to ¹¹¹In-NLS-7G3 (66 nmols/L) delivered up to 0.6Gy to AML-5 cells., Conclusions: We conclude that A12B4C3 radiosensitized AML cells to the DNA damaging effects of ¹¹¹In-NLS-7G3. Combination treatment may increase the effectiveness for Auger electron RIT of AML targeting the LSC subpopulation., (Copyright © 2014 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.)

- Abstract
The humanized antibody (hu1G8) has been shown to localize to prostate stem cell antigen (PSCA) and image PSCA-positive xenografts. We previously constructed hu1G8 anti-PSCA antibody fragments and tested them for tumor targeting and the ability to image prostate cancer at early and late time points postinjection by positron emission tomography (PET). We now then compare the PET imaging and the radioactivity accumulation properties in prostate cancer tumors and nontarget tissues to determine the superior 124I-labeled hu1G8 antibody format. 124I-labeled diabody, minibody, scFv-Fc, scFv-Fc double mutant (DM), and parental IgG were administered into severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) mice bearing LAPC-9 xenografts and followed by whole-body PET imaging of mice at preselected time points. Regions of interest were manually drawn around tumor and nontarget tissues and evaluated for radioactivity accumulation. The 124I-hu1G8 IgG has its best time point for tumor high-contrast imaging at 168 hours postinjection. The 124I-hu1G8 minibody at 44 hours postinjection results in superior tumor high-contrast imaging compared to the other antibody formats. The 124I-hu1G8 minibody at 44 hours postinjection also has comparable percent tumor radioactivity compared to 124I-hu1G8 IgG at 168 hours postinjection. The 124I-hu1G8 minibody is the best engineered hu1G8 antibody format for imaging prostate cancer.

- Abstract
Increased expression of epidermal growth factor receptors (EGFR) in breast cancer (BC) is often associated with trastuzumab (Herceptin)-resistant forms of the disease and represents an attractive target for novel therapies. Nimotuzumab is a humanized IgG(1) monoclonal antibody that is in clinical trials for treatment of EGFR-overexpressing malignancies. We show here that nimotuzumab derivatized with benzylisothiocyanate diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid for labelling with the subcellular range Auger electron-emitter, (111)In and modified with nuclear translocation sequence (NLS) peptides ((111)In-NLS-Bn-DTPA-nimotuzumab) was bound, internalized and transported to the nucleus of EGFR-positive BC cells. Emission of Auger electrons in close proximity to the nucleus caused multiple DNA double-strand breaks which diminished the clonogenic survival (CS) of MDA-MB-468 cells that have high EGFR density (2.4 × 10(6) receptors/cell) to less than 3 %. (111)In-Bn-DTPA-nimotuzumab without NLS peptide modification was sevenfold less effective for killing MDA-MB-468 cells. (111)In-Bn-DTPA-nimotuzumab with/without NLS peptide modification were equivalently cytotoxic to MDA-MB-231 and TrR1 BC cells that have moderate EGFR density (5.4 × 10(5) or 4.2 × 10(5) receptors/cell, respectively) reducing their CS by twofold. MDA-MB-231 cells have intrinsic trastuzumab resistance due to low HER2 density, whereas TrR1 cells have acquired resistance despite HER2 overexpression. Biodistribution and microSPECT/CT imaging revealed that (111)In-NLS-Bn-DTPA-nimotuzumab exhibited more rapid elimination from the blood and lower tumour uptake than (111)In-Bn-DTPA-nimotuzumab. Tumour uptake of the radioimmunoconjugates in mice with MDA-MB-468 xenografts was high (8-16 % injected dose/g) and was blocked by administration of an excess of unlabelled nimotuzumab, demonstrating EGFR specificity. We conclude that (111)In-Bn-DTPA-nimotuzumab with/without NLS peptide modification are promising Auger electron-emitting radioimmunotherapeutic agents for EGFR-positive BC, but (111)In-Bn-DTPA-nimotuzumab may be preferred due to its higher tumour uptake in vivo.
