Novel Antibody-Drug Conjugate with Anti-CD26 Humanized Monoclonal Antibody and Transcription Factor IIH (TFIIH) Inhibitor, Triptolide, Inhibits Tumor Growth via Impairing mRNA Synthesis. Cancers (Basel) 2019; 11:cancers11081138. [PMID: 31398954 PMCID: PMC6721810 DOI: 10.3390/cancers11081138] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/17/2019] [Accepted: 08/05/2019] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Here, we report a novel antibody drug conjugate (ADC) with the humanized anti-CD26 monoclonal antibody YS110 and triptolide (TR-1). YS110 has an inhibitory activity against the CD26-positive tumor growth via the immunological and direct pathway, such as intra-nuclear transportation of CD26 and YS110, and suppressed transcription of RNA polymerase II (Pol II) subunit POLR2A. The ADC conjugated with YS110 and an antitumor compound triptolide (TR-1), which is an inhibitor for TFIIH, one of the general transcription factors for Pol II was developed. YS110 and triptolide were crosslinked by the heterobifunctional linker succinimidyl 4-(N-maleimidomethyl)cyclohexane-1-carboxylate (SMCC) and designated Y-TR1. Antitumor efficacy of Y-TR1 against malignant mesothelioma and leukemia cell lines were assessed by the in vitro cell viability assay and in vivo assay using xenografted mouse models. Y-TR1 showed significant cytotoxicity against CD26-positive cell lines but not CD26-negative counterparts in a dose-dependent manner via suppression of mRNA synthesis by impairment of the Pol II activity. The tumors in xenografted mice administered Y-TR1 was smaller than that of the unconjugated YS110 treated mice without severe toxicity. In conclusion, the novel compound Y-TR1 showed antitumor properties against CD26-positive cancer cell lines both in vitro and in vivo without toxicity. The Y-TR1 is a unique antitumor ADC and functions against Pol II.

Abstract
CD26 is a type II glycoprotein known as dipeptidyl peptidase IV and has been identified as one of the cell surface markers associated with various types of cancers and a subset of cancer stem cells. Recent studies have suggested that CD26 expression is involved in tumor growth, tumor invasion, and metastasis. The CD26 is shown in an extensive intracellular distribution, ranging from the cell surface to the nucleus. We have previously showed that the humanized anti-CD26 monoclonal antibody (mAb), YS110, exhibits inhibitory effects on various cancers. However, functions of CD26 on cancer cells and molecular mechanisms of impaired tumor growth by YS110 treatment are not well understood. In this study, we demonstrated that the treatment with YS110 induced nuclear translocation of both cell-surface CD26 and YS110 in cancer cells and xenografted tumor. It was shown that the CD26 and YS110 were co-localized in nucleus by immunoelectron microscopic analysis. In response to YS110 treatment, CD26 was translocated into the nucleus via caveolin-dependent endocytosis. It was revealed that the nuclear CD26 interacted with a genomic flanking region of the gene for POLR2A, a subunit of RNA polymerase II, using a chromatin immunoprecipitation assay. This interaction with nuclear CD26 and POLR2A gene consequently led to transcriptional repression of the POLR2A gene, resulting in retarded cell proliferation of cancer cells. Furthermore, the impaired nuclear transport of CD26 by treatment with an endocytosis inhibitor or expressions of deletion mutants of CD26 reversed the POLR2A repression induced by YS110 treatment. These findings reveal that the nuclear CD26 functions in the regulation of gene expression and tumor growth, and provide a novel mechanism of mAb-therapy related to inducible translocation of cell-surface target molecule into the nucleus.

Abstract
MAb NS 88 directed against breast cancer cells, which is internalized and translocated to the cell nucleus, was conjugated with histone and labeled with 125I. 125I-MAb-histone complexes (M(r) 250,000) were internalized by breast and cervical cancer cells and localized in the cytoplasm and chromatin. Electrophoretic analysis of the cells extracted from the conjugates revealed the same molecular weights of the cytoplasmic and chromatin complexes as those of the native conjugate. Nicotine (0.1%), which suppresses lysosomal degradation, stabilized the conjugates within the cell and prolonged the presence of nondegraded complexes inside the cytoplasm and chromatin from 1 day to at least 3 days. MAb-histone complexes, but not MAb alone, inhibited RNA synthesis and proliferation of cervical and breast cancer cells. A new application of internalized MAbs as the vehicles for protein inhibitors of transcription or replication is discussed.

Abstract
Drugs intended to be endocytosed by macrophages may be transported by MAbs directed against these cells. Twenty MAbs were investigated for this purpose. The binding of these MAbs to macrophages obtained from a 7 day culture of blood monocytes showed that anti-CD11b and anti-CD14 recognized the highest number of cell surface antigen sites. Further assays determined that anti-CD63, Mo5 and anti-CD33 were the MAbs that induced the strongest modulation of the corresponding antigens, the highest rate being with anti-CD63. Endocytosis of antigen-antibody complexes was evidenced by the presence of MAbs in the cytoplasm. Anti-CD63 MAbs induced the highest internalization in this assay. For most MAbs, however, the density of antigen sites and the intensity of antigen modulation were not predictive of the amount of MAb detected in the cytoplasm.

Abstract
CD63 has been identified in human melanoma cells by a number of different monoclonal antibodies (MAbs). Studies with MAbs have shown that expression is most marked in naevi and early forms of cutaneous melanoma and reduced in vertical growth phase and metastatic lesions. To investigate further the role of CD63 in progression of melanoma, genomic CD63 was transfected into a CD63-negative human melanoma cell line using an episomal vector. The stable transfected melanoma cells had similar growth rates to control transfected melanoma cells in vitro but much lower growth rates when injected intradermally into athymic nude mice. The CD63-transfected cells also had a reduced number of metastases in the peritoneal cavity and subcutaneous sites when injected intravenously. MAb against CD63 did not influence the growth of CD63-transfected melanoma cells in vitro. Our results confirm previous studies using H-ras-transformed NIH3T3 fibroblasts and suggest that CD63 may have a role as a tumor suppressor gene in human melanoma that acts to limit invasion and progression of melanoma.

Abstract
CD63 is a 53 kDa lysosomal membrane glycoprotein that has been identified as a platelet activation molecule. We investigated the localization of CD63 antigen in platelets and in three megakaryocytic cell lines (K562, HEL and CMK11-5) using flow cytometry and immunoelectron microscopy. Flow cytometry showed that a monoclonal antibody directed against CD63 bound to 8.1% of unstimulated platelets and 59.2% of thrombin-stimulated platelets. Immunoelectron microscopy demonstrated that CD63 antigen was distributed randomly inside unstimulated platelets, while it was localized in the open canalicular system of washed platelets and on the cell membranes of thrombin-stimulated platelets. Flow cytometry detected CD63 on 16.4% of HEL cells, 31.2% of K562 cells, and 43.2% of CMK11-5 cells. Immunoelectron microscopy demonstrated that CD63 was localized in the granules and on the surface membranes of HEL cells, in the vesicles and on the membranes of K562 cells, and in the granules and vesicles as well as on the membranes of CMK11-5 cells. Thus, the distribution of CD63 differed markedly among these three megakaryocytic cell lines.

Abstract
Sj23, the 23-kDa target antigen in Schistosoma japonicum adult worms of the hybridoma monoclonal antibody (mAb) I-134, has been identified and cloned from cDNA libraries, mAb I-134 has been successfully used in immunodiagnostic assays to detect S. japonicum infection in Philippine patients. Sequence analysis has shown that Sj23 is the homologue, with 84% amino acid identity, of Sm23, a 23-kDa molecule from S. mansoni worms previously described from our laboratory. The domain structures of Sj23 and Sm23 are strikingly similar to the human membrane proteins ME491, CD37, CD53 and TAPA-1, which may suggest a functional role for the schistosome molecules in cellular proliferation.

Abstract
Several of the recently described leucocyte surface (glyco)-proteins with significant amino acid sequence similarity (human CD9, CD37, CD53, CD63, TAPA-1, CO-029 and R2 and several homologues of other species) are distinguished by the polypeptide chain apparently four times crossing the membrane. Although the biological role of none of these molecules is known, their structure, associations with other membrane components and the effects of specific monoclonal antibodies suggest that they may constitute a family of ion channels or other transport molecules.

Abstract
A novel cDNA clone termed R2 was isolated by subtractive hybridization of a cDNA library of phytohemagglutinin (PHA)/phorbol myristate acetate-stimulated Jurkat cells and by rescreening a cDNA library of PHA-stimulated peripheral blood lymphocytes. It hybridizes to a single mRNA species of about 2.2 kb, which is inducible in lymphoid cells and codes for a protein of 267 amino acids which contains four potential transmembrane domains. A computer-aided comparison showed strong homology to four other membrane proteins, the pan B cell marker CD37, the pan leukocyte marker CD53, the melanoma antigen ME491 and, surprisingly, the Schistosoma mansoni antigen Sm23. The four human proteins share a number of additional similarities in their overall structure. These include identical spacing of the transmembrane domains, similar hydrophobicity plots, possible N-linked glycosylation sites of similar number and position as well as similar distribution of the cysteine residues. The majority of these characteristics are still conserved in the evolutionary most distant member of this family, the Schistosoma mansoni antigen Sm23. Here we introduce this new protein superfamily and characterize the inducible, lymphoid-specific member R2.

Abstract
The human tumor-associated antigen CO-029 is a monoclonal antibody-defined cell surface glycoprotein of 27-34 kDa. By using the high-efficiency COS cell expression system, a full-length cDNA clone for CO-029 was isolated. When transiently expressed in COS cells, the cDNA clone directed the synthesis of an antigen reactive to monoclonal antibody CO-029 in mixed hemadsorption and immunoblot assays. Sequence analysis revealed that CO-029 belongs to a family of cell surface antigens that includes the melanoma-associated antigen ME491, the leukocyte cell surface antigen CD37, and the Sm23 antigen of the parasitic helminth Schistosoma mansoni. CO-029 and ME491 antigen expression and the effect of their corresponding monoclonal antibodies on cell growth were compared in human tumor cell lines of various histologic origins.
