Abstract
Inhibitors of the epithermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) were screened from an autodisplayed Fv-antibody library using an anti-EGF antibody. The Fv-antibody library was expressed on the outer membrane of Escherichia coli, which corresponds to the heavy chain VH region of immunoglobulin G. The library was constructed by randomizing the CDR3 region of expressed VH regions (11 amino acid residues) by site-directed mutagenesis. Using an anti-EGF antibody as a screening probe, amino acid sequences (CDR3 region) with antibody binding affinity were screened from the Fv-antibody library. These amino acid sequences were considered to have similar chemical properties to EGF, which can bind to EGFR. Two autodisplayed clones with Fv-antibodies against EGFR were screened from the Fv-antibody library, and the screened Fv-antibodies were expressed as soluble proteins. The binding affinity (KD) was estimated using an SPR biosensor, and the inhibitory activity of expressed Fv-antibodies was observed for PANC-1 pancreatic tumor cells and T98G glioblastoma cells using Western blot analysis of proteins in the EGFR-mediated signaling pathway. The viability of PANC-1 and T98G cells was observed to decrease via the inhibitory activity of expressed Fv-antibodies. Finally, interactions between Fv-antibodies and EGFR were analyzed by using molecular docking simulations.

Enhancing the anticancer effect of androgen deprivation therapy by monocarboxylate transporter 1 inhibitor in prostate cancer cells. Prostate 2024; 84:814-822. [PMID: 38558458 DOI: 10.1002/pros.24700] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2023] [Revised: 02/15/2024] [Accepted: 03/19/2024] [Indexed: 04/04/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Tumor initiation and progression necessitate a metabolic shift in cancer cells. Consequently, the progression of prostate cancer (PCa), a leading cause of cancer-related deaths in males globally, involves a shift from lipogenic to glycolytic metabolism. Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) serves as the standard treatment for advanced-stage PCa. However, despite initial patient responses, castrate resistance emerges ultimately, necessitating novel therapeutic approaches. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to investigate the role of monocarboxylate transporters (MCTs) in PCa post-ADT and evaluate their potential as therapeutic targets. METHODS PCa cells (LNCaP and C4-2 cell line), which has high prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) and androgen receptor (AR) expression among PCa cell lines, was used in this study. We assessed the expression of MCT1 in PCa cells subjected to ADT using charcoal-stripped bovine serum (CSS)-containing medium or enzalutamide (ENZ). Furthermore, we evaluated the synergistic anticancer effects of combined treatment with ENZ and SR13800, an MCT1 inhibitor. RESULTS Short-term ADT led to a significant upregulation in folate hydrolase 1 (FOLH1) and solute carrier family 16 member 1 (SLC16A1) gene levels, with elevated PSMA and MCT1 protein levels. Long-term ADT induced notable changes in cell morphology with further upregulation of FOLH1/PSMA and SLC16A1/MCT1 levels. Treatment with ENZ, a nonsteroidal anti-androgen, also increased PSMA and MCT1 expression. However, combined therapy with ENZ and SR13800 led to reduced PSMA level, decreased cell viability, and suppressed expression of cancer stem cell markers and migration indicators. Additionally, analysis of human PCa tissues revealed a positive correlation between PSMA and MCT1 expression in tumor regions. CONCLUSIONS Our results demonstrate that ADT led to a significant upregulation in MCT1 levels. However, the combination of ENZ and SR13800 demonstrated a promising synergistic anticancer effect, highlighting a potential therapeutic significance for patients with PCa undergoing ADT.

Abstract
In this study, a one-step immunoassay for porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) based on Fv-antibodies and switching peptides was developed, and the assay results of PEDV were obtained by just mixing samples without any further reaction or washing steps. The Fv-antibodies with binding affinity to the spike protein of PEDV were screened from the Fv-antibody library using the receptor-binding domain (RBD) of the spike protein as a screening probe. Screened Fv-antibodies with binding affinities to the RBD antigen were expressed, and the binding constants (KD) were calculated to be 83-142 nM. The one-step immunoassay for the detection of PEDV was configured as a displacement immunoassay using a fluorescence-labeled switching peptide. The one-step immunoassay based on switching peptides was performed using PEDV, and the limit of detection (LOD) values for PEDV detection were estimated to be Ct = 39.7-36.4. Compared with the LOD value for a conventional lateral flow immunoassay (Ct = 33.0), the one-step immunoassay showed a remarkably improved LOD for the detection of PEDV. Finally, the interaction between the screened Fv-antibodies and the PEDV RBD was investigated using docking simulations and compared with the amino acid sequences of the receptors on host cells, such as aminopeptidase N (APN) and angiotensin-converting enzyme-2 (ACE-2).

Abstract
Monocarboxylate transporter-1 (MCT-1) inhibitors were screened from the Fv-antibody library, which contained complementary determining region 3 with randomized amino acid sequences (11 residues) through site-directed mutagenesis. Fv-antibodies against MCT-1 were screened from the autodisplayed Fv-antibody library. Two clones were screened, and the binding affinity (KD) against MCT-1 was estimated using flow cytometry. The screened Fv-antibodies were expressed as soluble fusion proteins (Fv-1 and Fv-2) and the KD for MCT-1 was estimated using the SPR biosensor. The inhibitory activity of the expressed Fv-antibodies was observed in HEK293T and Jurkat cell lines by measuring intracellular pH and lactate accumulation. The level of cell viability in HEK293T and Jurkat cell lines was decreased by the inhibitory activity of the expressed Fv-antibodies. The binding properties of the Fv-antibodies to MCT-1 were analyzed using molecular docking simulations. Overall, the results showed that the screened Fv-antibodies against MCT-1 from the Fv-antibody library had high binding affinity and inhibitory activity against MCT-1, which could be used as potential therapeutic drug candidates for the MCT-1 inhibitor.

Abstract
Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) is an essential factor for DNA metabolism. The influence of PCNA on DNA replication and repair, combined with the high expression rate of PCNA in various tumours renders PCNA a promising target for cancer therapy. In this context, an autodisplay-based screening method was developed to identify peptidic PCNA interaction inhibitors. A 12-mer randomized peptide library consisting of 2.54 × 106 colony-forming units was constructed and displayed at the surface of Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) cells by autodisplay. Cells exhibiting an enhanced binding to fluorescent mScarlet-I-PCNA were enriched in four sorting rounds by flow cytometry. This led to the discovery of five peptide variants with affinity to mScarlet-I-PCNA. Among these, P3 (TCPLRWITHDHP) exhibited the highest binding signal. Subsequent flow cytometric analysis revealed a dissociation constant of 0.62 μM for PCNA-P3 interaction. Furthermore, the inhibition of PCNA interactions was investigated using p15, a PIP-box containing protein involved in DNA replication and repair. P3 inhibited the PCNA-p1551-70 interaction with a half maximal inhibitory activity of 16.2 μM, characterizing P3 as a potent inhibitor of the PCNA-p15 interaction.

Abstract
The Fv-antibodies were correponded to VH region of immunoglobulin G, which were composed of three complementarity determining regions (CDRs) for the specific binding of antigens. In this work, the Fv-antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 spike protein (SP) were screened from an autodisplayed Fv-antibody library which was expressed on E. coli outer membrane, and the receptor binding domain (RBD) of SP was used as a screening probe. The screened target clones were analyzed to have quantitative binding properties to the RBD, and the Fv-antibodies from the screened target clones were expressed as soluble proteins. The binding affinity (KD) of expressed Fv-antibodies to the RBD was estimated to be 70-85 nM using SPR biosensor. The specific binding properties of Fv-antibodies were analyzed for pseudo-virus particles with SARS-CoV-2 SP on the Lenti-virus envelope, such as wild type (Wuhan-1) and variants (Delta, Omicron BA.2, Omicron BA.4/5) using a SPR biosensor. The detection of real SARS-CoV-2 (Wild type, Wuhan-1) based on a SPR biosensor was also presented using the Fv-antibodies with the binding constant (KD) of cycle threshold value (Ct) = 33.8-32.9 (2.19-4.08 copies/μL) and LOD of 0.67-0.83 copies/μL (Ct = 35.5-35.2). Finally, one-step immunoassay based on switching peptide was demonstrated for the detection of the real SARS-CoV-2 (Wuhan-1) without any washing step. The binding constant (KD) was estimated to be Ct = 35.2-33.9 (0.83-2.04 copies/μL), and LOD was estimated to be 0.14-0.47 copies/μL (Ct = 37.8-36.0). Considering the LOD of the conventional RT-PCR (Ct = 35), the LOD of the one-step immunoassay based on the switching peptide was determined to be feasible for the medical diagnosis of COVID-19.

Abstract
Serotonin-like mimotopes were screened from the Fv-antibody library to be used as inhibitors against monoamine oxidase A (MAO-A). The Fv-antibody [corresponding to the VH region of immunoglobulin G (IgG)] consists of three complementarity-determining regions and four frame regions. The Fv-antibody library was prepared by site-directed mutagenesis of CDR3, which consists of 11 amino acid residues. Three target clones were screened from the Fv-antibody library, and the binding affinity of the screened clones to the monoclonal anti-serotonin antibody was analyzed using fluorescence-activated cell sorting. The screened Fv-antibodies were expressed as soluble proteins fused with green fluorescence protein. Additionally, the screened CDR3 regions (11 residues) of the selected Fv-antibodies were synthesized as peptides with linking amino acid residues. The binding constants (KD) of the three serotonin-like mimotopes (Fv-antibodies and peptides) were estimated using a surface plasmon resonance biosensor. The inhibitory activity (IC50) of the serotonin-like mimotopes (Fv-antibodies and peptides) was estimated separately for MAO-A and MAO-B enzymes and compared with that of conventional inhibitors. Finally, the screened serotonin-like mimotopes were used to treat a cell line (SH-SY5Y, ATCC code: CRL-2266) expressing serotonin receptors. This was done to confirm the following two aspects: (1) the binding of mimotopes to the serotonin receptors on the cell surface and (2) the inhibitory activity of mimotopes against MAO-A enzymes in the cell lysates.

Abstract
The detection of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV-1) was demonstrated using screened Fv-antibodies for SPR biosensor and impedance spectrometry. The Fv-antibody library was first prepared on the outer membrane of E. coli using autodisplay technology and the Fv-variants (clones) with a specific affinity toward the SARS-CoV-1 spike protein (SP) were screened using magnetic beads immobilized with the SP. Upon screening the Fv-antibody library, two target Fv-variants (clones) with a specific binding affinity toward the SARS-CoV-1 SP were determined and the Fv-antibodies on two clones were named "Anti-SP1" (with CDR3 amino acid sequence: 1GRTTG5NDRPD11Y) and "Anti-SP2" (with CDR3 amino acid sequence: 1CLRQA5GTADD11V). The binding affinities of the two screened Fv-variants (clones) were analyzed using flow cytometry and the binding constants (KD) were estimated to be 80.5 ± 3.6 nM for Anti-SP1 and 45.6 ± 8.9 nM for Anti-SP2 (n = 3). In addition, the Fv-antibody including three CDR regions (CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3) and frame regions (FRs) between the CDR regions was expressed as a fusion protein (Mw. 40.6 kDa) with a green fluorescent protein (GFP) and the KD values of the expressed Fv-antibodies toward the SP estimated to be 15.3 ± 1.5 nM for Anti-SP1 (n = 3) and 16.3 ± 1.7 nM for Anti-SP2 (n = 3). Finally, the expressed Fv-antibodies screened against SARS-CoV-1 SP (Anti-SP1 and Anti-SP2) were applied for the detection of SARS-CoV-1. Consequently, the detection of SARS-CoV-1 was demonstrated to be feasible using the SPR biosensor and impedance spectrometry utilizing the immobilized Fv-antibodies against the SARS-CoV-1 SP.
