    Abstract

    Serum autoantibody profiles are unique to individuals and reflect the level and history of autoimmunity and tumor immunity. The identification of autoantibody biomarkers is critical for the development of immune monitoring systems for immune‐related disorders. Here, we present a practical method for large‐scale autoantibody discovery using total cellular proteins from cultured mammalian cells. We found that nucleic acid‐free and fully denatured water‐soluble total cellular proteins from mammalian cells were superior, allowing precise separation by reversed‐phase HPLC after preparing a large set of homogeneous total cellular proteins. After separating the proteins based on hydrophobicity, the fractionated samples were subjected to molecular mass analysis using conventional SDS‐PAGE. The resulting two‐dimensional gel electrophoresis was successfully employed for immune blotting and LC–MS/MS analysis. All procedures, including TRIzol‐based total cellular protein extraction, solubilization of denatured proteins, reversed‐phase HPLC separation, and SDS‐PAGE, were highly reproducible and easily scalable. We propose this novel two‐dimensional gel electrophoresis system as an alternative proteomics‐based methodology suitable for large‐scale autoantibody discovery.

    Various pharmacological properties of Xinjiang licorice flavonoids have been reported recently. We have investigated constituents corresponding to distinct peaks on the high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) profile of a flavonoid-rich extract from licorice, and identified 13 flavonoids, including licochalcone A (1), licochalcone B (3), glabrone (4), and echinatin (5), by isolating them and then performing high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectrometry and 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectral analyses. We then applied the 1H quantitative NMR (qNMR) method for analysis of major flavonoids, 1 and 3-5 in the extract. The 1H qNMR results were supported by 13C NMR analysis. The results demonstrated the utility of the combination of HPLC profiling and qNMR analyses for quality control of Xinjiang licorice. Additionally, we observed a moderate inhibitory effect of the most abundant constituent, licochalcone A (1), on acetylcholine esterase activity, suggesting utility as a seed for drug development.

    In this study, we focus on the antimicrobial properties of tempeh, a soybean fermented food, against oral bacteria. Tempeh showed antimicrobial activity against dental caries pathogenic bacterium Streptococcus mutans at a final concentration of 1 mg/mL. An antimicrobial substance contained in tempeh was present in the 100 kDa or greater fraction generated by ultrafiltration, but it was found not to be proteinaceous by native-PAGE, SDS-PAGE and protein degradation tests. Next, when the fraction was purified with an ODS column, the 80% and 100% methanol eluates showed antimicrobial activity against S. mutans. The 100% methanol eluate was further subjected to a 2nd column purification, and isolation of the target was confirmed by HPLC. When the isolated material was analyzed by ESI-MS, the m/z was 279.234. Further analysis by Raman spectroscopy revealed a peak similar to linoleic acid. This substance also possessed antimicrobial properties equivalent to linoleic acid.

    An ethyl acetate extract of Arabidopsis thaliana plants was tested for the presence of endogenous suppressor(s) (ES), and the active fraction, which partitioned into water phase contained a molecule(s) < 3000 Da based on a rough estimate using sized membrane filters. Foliar application of the ES enabled typically nonpathogenic fungi (non-adapted pathogens) to cause disease symptoms on A. thaliana. Consistently, the ES fraction severely suppressed the oxidative burst and the expression of defense-related genes such as FRK1, NHO1, WRKY22, WRKY29, PEN2, and PEN3 in plants challenged with non-adapted fungus Colletotrichum gloeosporioides or the fungal elicitor chitin.

  • Evaluation of irreversible protein thermal inactivation caused by breakage of disulphide bonds using methanethiosulphonate 査読

    Many extracellular globular proteins have evolved to possess disulphide bonds in their native conformations, which aids in thermodynamic stabilisation. However, disulphide bond breakage by heating leads to irreversible protein denaturation through disulphide-thiol exchange reactions. In this study, we demonstrate that methanethiosulphonate (MTS) specifically suppresses the heat-induced disulphide-thiol exchange reaction, thus improving the heat-resistance of proteins. In the presence of MTS, small globular proteins that contain disulphides can spontaneously refold from heat-denatured states, maintaining wild-type disulphide pairing. Because the disulphide-thiol exchange reaction is triggered by the generation of catalytic amounts of perthiol or thiol, rapid and specific perthiol/thiol protection by MTS reagents prevents irreversible denaturation. Combining MTS reagents with another additive that suppresses chemical modifications, glycinamide, further enhanced protein stabilisation. In the presence of these additives, reliable remnant activities were observed even after autoclaving. However, immunoglobulin G and biotin-binding protein, which are both composed of tetrameric quaternary structures, failed to refold from heat-denatured states, presumably due to chaperon requirements. Elucidation of the chemical modifications involved in irreversible thermoinactivation is useful for the development of preservation buffers with optimum constitutions for specific proteins. In addition, the impact of disulphide bond breakage on the thermoinactivation of proteins can be evaluated using MTS reagents.

    Bortezomib has been shown to be effective and well-tolerated in patients with refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in the Therapeutic Advances in Childhood Leukemia trial. However, the safety and efficacy of bortezomib have not been evaluated in Japanese pediatric patients. Here, we report the results of a clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety of bortezomib combined with induction chemotherapy in Japanese children with refractory ALL. A total of six patients with B-precursor ALL were enrolled in this study. Four-dose bortezomib (1.3 mg/m(2)/dose) combined with two standard induction chemotherapies was used. Prolonged pancytopenia (grade 4) was observed in all patients. Four of the six patients developed severe infectious complications. Peripheral neuropathy (grade 2) occurred in five patients. The individual plasma bortezomib concentration-time profiles were not related to toxicity and efficacy. Five patients were evaluable for response, and four patients achieved complete response (CR) or CR without platelet recovery (80%). In conclusion, four-dose bortezomib (1.3 mg/m(2)/dose) combined with standard re-induction chemotherapy was associated with a high risk of infectious complications induced by prolonged neutropenia, although high efficacy has been achieved for Japanese pediatric patients with refractory ALL. Attention must be given to severe infectious complications when performing re-induction chemotherapy including bortezomib.

    Hepatitis B virus (HBV) envelope particles have been synthesized in eukaryotic cells (e.g., mammalian cells, insect cells, and yeast cells) as an HB vaccine immunogen and drug delivery system (DDS) nano carrier. Many researchers had made attempts to synthesize the particles in Escherichia coli for minimize the cost and time for producing HBV envelope particles, but the protein was too deleterious to be synthesized in E. coli. In this study, we generated deletion mutants of HBV envelope L protein (389 amino acid residues (aa)) containing three transmembrane domains (TM1, TM2, TM3). The Delta NC mutant spanning from TM2 to N-terminal half of TM3 (from 237 aa to 335 aa) was found as a shortest form showing spontaneous particle formation. After the N-terminal end of ANC mutant was optimized by the N-end rule for E. coli expression, the modified ANC mutant (mANC) was efficiently expressed as particles in E. coli. The molecular mass of mANC particle was approx. 670 kDa, and the diameter was 28.5 +/- 6.2 nm (mean +/- SD, N = 61). The particle could react with anti-HBV envelope S protein antibody, indicating the particles exhibited S antigenic domain outside as well as HBV envelope particles. Taken together, the E. coli-derived mANC particles could be used as a substitute of eukaryotic cell-derived HBV envelope particles for versatile applications. (C) 2017 Elsevier Inc.

    Objective: To describe an assay of 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5MTHF) in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of children, to determine reference values, and to report the clinical significance of this assay in metabolic disorders affecting folate transport and metabolism.
    Methods: CSF 5MTHF was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescent detection in pediatric patients including one with FOLR1 gene mutation and one with methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) deficiency. CSF total folate was measured using an automated analyzer.
    Results: 5MTHF and total folate were determined in 188 and 93 CSF samples, respectively. CSF 5MTHF was high throughout the first six months of life and subsequently declined with age. Reference values of CSF 5MTHF and total folate were determined from 162 and 82 samples, respectively. The patient with FOLR1 gene mutation had extremely low CSF 5MTHF and total folate, though these values normalized after folinic acid supplementation. The patient with MTHFR deficiency had extremely low 5MTHF and moderately low total folate; these values were not associated and showed no significant change after folic acid supplementation.
    Conclusions: This 5MTHF assay is simple, rapid, sensitive, reliable, and cost-effective. It will aid in the diagnosis and therapeutic monitoring of metabolic disorders affecting folate transport and metabolism. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    Background: Cerebral folate deficiency (CFD) may be underdiagnosed, as it manifests with various non-specific neurological symptoms. The diagnosis of CFD requires a determination of 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5MTHF) in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), which is available in a limited number of specialized laboratories. In clinical biochemistry laboratories, total folate (TF) determination in serum or plasma is routinely performed by automated analyzers. The aim of this study is to determine whether the automated assay of CSF TF is a helpful screening tool for CFD.
    Methods: We analyzed CSF samples collected from 73 pediatric patients. We measured CSF TF, serum TF, and CSF 5MTHF in 73, 70, and 48 patients, respectively. The assay of 5MTHF was conducted by a newly developed system utilizing liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/ MS). We investigated the correlation between TF and 5MTHF in the CSF.
    Results: There was a strong positive correlation between CSF TF and 5MTHF (rho=0.930, p&lt;0.0001, n=48). Age was negatively correlated with CSF TF (rho=-0.557, p&lt;0.0001, n=51), serum TF (rho=-0.457, p=0.0008, n=51), and CSF 5MTHF (rho=-0.387, p=0.0263, n=33), but not with the CSF/serum TF ratio.
    Conclusions: The automated assay of CSF TF is helpful to estimate CSF 5MTHF. The CSF TF assay may have a significant impact on the early diagnosis of CFD, because clinicians have better access to it than the 5MTHF assay.

    Protein cationization techniques are powerful protein transduction methods for mammalian cells. As we demonstrated previously, cationized proteins with limited conjugation to polyethylenimine have excellent ability to enter into cells by adsorption-mediated endocytosis [Futami, J., et al. (2005) J. Biosci. Bioeng. 99, 95-103]. In this study, we show that proteins with extensive and uniform cationization covering the protein surface reach the cytoplasm and nucleus more effectively than proteins with limited cationic polymers or proteins that are fused to cationic peptides. Although extensive modification of carboxylates results in loss of protein function, chicken avidin retains biotin-binding ability even after extensive amidation of carboxylates. Using this cationized avidin carrier system, the protein transduction ability of variously cationized avidins was investigated using biotinylated protein as a probe. The results revealed that cationized avidins bind rapidly to the cell surface followed by endocytotic uptake. Small amounts of uniformly cationized avidin showed direct penetration into the cytoplasm within a 15 min incubation. This penetration route seemed to be energy dependent and functioned under cellular physiological conditions. A biotinylated exogenous transcription factor protein that penetrated cells was demonstrated to induce target gene expression in living cells.

    The glutathione S-transferase (GST)-fused protein expression system has been extensively used to generate a large quantity of proteins and has served for functional analysis in vitro. In this study, we developed a novel approach for the efficient intracellular delivery of GST-fused proteins into living cells to expand their usefulness up to in vivo use. Since protein cationization techniques are powerful strategies for efficient intracellular uptake by adsorptive-mediated endocytosis, GST-fused proteins were cationized by forming a complex with a polycationic polyethylenimine (PEI)-glutathione conjugate. On screening of protein transduction, optimized PEI-glutathione conjugate for protein transduction was characterized by a partly oligomerized mixture of PEI with average molecular masses of 600 (PEI600) modified with multiple glutathiones, which could have sufficient avidity for GST. Furthermore, enhanced endosomal escape of transduced GST-fused proteins was observed when they were delivered with a glutathione-conjugated PEI600 derivative possessing a hydroxybutenyl moiety. These results were confirmed by both intracellular confocal imaging of GST-fused green fluorescent protein and activation of an endogenous growth signal transduction pathway by a GST-fused constitutively active mutant of a kinase protein. These PEI-glutathione conjugates seem to be convenient molecular tools for protein transduction of widely used GST-fused proteins.

    ErbB2, which is a member of the epidermal growth factor (erbB) receptor family, is frequently overexpressed in breast and ovarian cancers. Antibody and small molecule anti-tyrosine kinase inhibitors have been developed for targeted therapies for cancers overexpressing erbB2. Internalization and downregulation of erbB2, which is induced by a ligand, may be important for efficacious therapeutic effects. However, ligand-dependent erbB2 internalization has not been well characterized. Here we investigated the internalization of erbB2 in SKBr3 and SKOv3 cells, both overexpressing erbB2, using an EC-1 peptide fused to eGFP (EC-eGFP), which specifically binds to erbB2. ErbB2 was internalized in SKOv3 cells when the cells were treated with EC-eGFP. The accumulation of endosomal erbB2 was EC-eGFP dependent, which colocalized with transferrin implying endocytosis via clathrin-coated pits. In contrast, internalization of erbB2 was not observed in SKBr3 cells. As a result, two different mechanisms, which are cell type dependent for the internalization of erbB2, are proposed.

    Betacellulin (BTC) is one of the members of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) ligand family of ErbB receptor tyrosine kinases. It is a differentiation factor as well as a potent mitogen. BTC promotes the differentiation of pancreatic acinar-derived AR42J cells into insulin-producing cells. It independently and preferentially binds to two type I tyrosine kinase receptors, the EGF receptor (ErbB1) and ErbB4. However, the physiochemical characteristics of BTC that are responsible for its preferential binding to these two receptors have not been fully defined. In this study, to investigate the essential amino acid residues of BTC for binding to the two receptors, we introduced point mutations into the EGF domain of BTC employing error-prone PCR. The receptor binding abilities of 190 mutants expressed in Escherichia coli were assessed by enzyme immunoassay. Replacement of the glutamic acid residue at position 88 with a lysine residue in BTC was found to produce a significant loss of affinity for binding to ErbB1, while the affinity of binding to ErbB4 was unchanged. In addition, the mutant of BTC-E/88/K showed less growth-promoting activity on BALB/c 3T3 cells compared with that of the wild-type BTC protein. Interestingly, the BTC mutant protein promoted differentiation of pancreatic acinar AR42J cells at a high frequency into insulin-producing cells compared with AR42J cells that were treated with wild-type BTC protein. These results indicate the possibility of designing BTC mutants, which have an activity of inducing differentiation only, without facilitating growth promotion. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd.

    Polyethylenimine (PEI) cationization is a powerful strategy for protein transduction into cells. In this study, we attempted the artificial regulation of cell proliferation by protein transduction of the N-terminal domain (1-132 amino acids) of the simian virus 40 large T-antigen (SVLT-N), which inactivates retinoblastoma family proteins but not p53. To deliver SVLT-N into cells, we employed an indirect cationization method by forming a complex of biotynylated SVLT-N through disulfide bonds (biotin-SS-SVLT-N) and PEI-cationized avidin (PEI600-avidin). Using this complex, SVLT-N was transduced into the nucleus of confluent and quiescent Balb/c 3T3 cells and was found to be complexed with a cellular target protein, pRb. Furthermore, SVLT-N transduction induced cell proliferation in spite of confluent conditions. Because SVLT-N thus transduced into cells gradually degraded and was not detectable after a 4-d incubation, transiently transformed cells were obtained by this method. These results suggest that oncogene protein transduction technology has great potential for in vitro regulation of cell proliferation.

    A protein crystal lattice consists of surface contact regions, where the interactions of specific groups play a key role in stabilizing the regular arrangement of the protein molecules. In an attempt to control protein incorporation in a crystal lattice, a leucine zipper-like hydrophobic interface (comprising four leucine residues) was introduced into a helical region (helix 2) of the human pancreatic ribonuclease 1 (RNase 1) that was predicted to form a suitable crystallization interface. Although crystallization of wild-type RNase 1 has not yet been reported, the RNase 1 mutant having four leucines (4L-RNase 1) was successfully crystallized under several different conditions. The crystal structures were subsequently determined by Xray crystallography by molecular replacement using the structure of bovine RNase A. The overall structure of 4L-RNase 1 is quite similar to that of the bovine RNase A, and the introduced leucine residues formed the designed crystal interface. To characterize the role of the introduced leucine residues in crystallization of RNase 1 further, the number of leucines was reduced to three or two (3L-and 2L-RNase 1, respectively). Both mutants crystallized and a similar hydrophobic interface as in 4L-RNase 1 was observed. A related approach to engineer crystal contacts at helix 3 of RNase 1 (N4L- RNase 1) was also evaluated. N4L- RNase 1 also successfully crystallized and formed the expected hydrophobic packing interface. These results suggest that appropriate introduction of a leucine zipper-like hydrophobic interface can promote intermolecular symmetry for more efficient protein crystallization in crystal lattice engineering efforts.

    The bio-nanocapsules (BNCs) composed of the recombinant envelope L-protein of hepatitis B virus constitute efficient delivery vectors specifically targeting human hepatocytes. Here, we have tried to enhance the stability of the BNCs because the L-proteins in the BNCs were aggregated due to random disulfide bridging when stored for a long period at 4 degrees C. The envelope protein contains fourteen cysteine residues in the S domain. Aggregation of the envelope proteins might be avoided if unessential cysteine residues are replaced or removed because the irreversible alkylation of the free sulfhydryl group protects against the aggregation and enhances the efficiency of encapsulation. In this study, the possibility of reducing the number of cysteine residues in the S domain to enhance the stability of the BNCs was assessed. The replacement of each cysteine residue by site-directed mutation showed that nine of fourteen cysteine residues were not essential to obtaining BNCs secreted into the culture media. Furthermore, upon evaluating the combination of these mutations, it was found that eight residues of replacement were acceptable. The mutant BNCs with replaced eight cysteine residues were not only more resistant against trypsin, but also more effective in transducing genes into human hepatoma-derived HepG2 cells than the original type BNC. Thus, we demonstrated that the minimized number of cysteine residues in the S domain could enhance the stability of the BNCs. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    It is thought that the export of angiogenic fibroblast growth factors (FGF) from tumors may be involved in the onset of tumor angiogenesis. To create a new active targeting drug that inhibits the tumor angiogenic process without toxicities to normal cells, human basic FGF (h-bFGF) was inserted genetically into the Gly89 position of cross-linked RNase1 (the ribonuclease inhibitor protein [RI] binding site of cross-linked human pancreatic RNase) to prevent stereospecific binding to RI. The resultant insertional-fusion protein (CL-RFN89) was active both as h-bFGF and as RNase1. Furthermore, it acquired an additional ability of evading RI through steric blockade of RI binding caused by the fused h-bFGF domain. In the present study, the effect of the resultant protein, CL-RFN89, on the antitumor response though its antiangiogenic properties was investigated in an in vivo model. Continuous systemic treatment with CL-RFN89 significantly inhibited the growth of human A431 squamous cell carcinomas in vivo. Seven days of treatment with CL-RFN89 resulted in a 58.2% inhibition of tumor growth compared with control mice (P &lt; 0.0001). Furthermore, immunohistochemistry using a rat antimouse CD31 antibody showed that treatment with CL-RFN89 reduced tumor vascularization. These findings identify CL-RFN89 as a potent systemic inhibitor of tumor growth as a result of its antiangiogenic properties. This protein appears to be a new systemic antitumor agent.

    The betacellulin precursor (pro-BTC) is a novel substrate for ADAM10-mediated ectodomain shedding. In this report, we investigated the ability of novel physiologically relevant stimuli, including G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) agonists and reactive oxygen species (ROS), to stimulate pro-BTC shedding. We found that in breast adenocarcinoma MCF7 cells overexpressing pro-BTC, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) was a powerful stimulator of ectodomain shedding. The stimulation of pro-BTC shedding by H2O2 was blocked by the broad-spectrum metalloprotease inhibitor TAPI-0 but was still functional in ADAM17 (TACE)-deficient stomach epithelial cells indicating the involvement of a distinct metalloprotease. H2O2-induced pro-BTC shedding was blocked by co-culturing cells in the anti-oxidant N-acetyl-L-cysteine but was unaffected by culture in calcium-deficient media. By contrast, calcium ionophore, which is a previously characterized activator of pro-BTC shedding, was sensitive to calcium depletion but was unaffected by co-culture with the anti-oxidant, identifying a clear distinction between these stimuli. We found that in vascular smooth muscle cells overexpressing pro-BTC, the GPCR agonist endothelin-1 (ET-1) was a strong inducer of ectodomain shedding. This was blocked by a metalloprotease inhibitor and by overexpression of catalytically inactive E385AADAM10. However, overexpression of wild-type ADAM10 or ADAM17 led to an increase in ET-1-induced pro-BTC shedding providing evidence for an involvement of both enzymes in this process. This study identifies ROS and ET-1 as two novel inducers of pro-BTC shedding and lends support to the notion of activated shedding occurring under the control of physiologically relevant stimuli. J.

    Cationization is a powerful strategy for internalizing a protein into living cells. On the other hand, a reversibly cationized denatured protein through disulfide bonds is not only soluble in water but also able to fold to the native conformation in vitro. When these advantages in cationization were combined, we developed a novel method to deliver a denatured protein into cells and simultaneously let it fold to express its function within cells. This "in-cell folding" method enhances the utility of recombinant proteins expressed in Escherichia coli as inclusion bodies; that is, the recombinant proteins in inclusion bodies are solubilized by reversible cationization through cysteine residues by disulfide bonds with aminopropyl methanethiosulfonate or pyridyldithiopropionylpolyethylenimine and then incubated with cells without an in vitro folding procedure. As a model protein, we investigated human tumor-suppressor p53. Treatment of p53-null Saos-2 cells with reversibly cationized p53 revealed that all events examined as indications of the activation of p53 in cells, such as reduction of disulfide bonds followed by tetramer formation, localization into the nucleus, induction of p53 target genes, and induction of apoptosis of cells, occurred. These results suggest that reversible cationization of a denatured protein through cysteine residues is an alternative method for delivery of a functional protein into cells. This method would be very useful when a native folded protein is not readily available.

    We analyzed gene expression profiles of normal mouse fibroblast BALB/c 3T3 cells and its SV40 transformant SV-T2 cells using our originally developed cell surface marker DNA microarray, which is prepared on a diamond-like carbon-coated glass. As a result, CD62L and IL-6 receptor alpha gene expressions were upregulated in SV-T2 and were thought to be candidates for cell surface markers of the cells. The result of microarray analysis was validated by real-time quantitative PCR, immunohistochemistry and biological assays. These data show that our cell surface marker DNA microarray should be useful in finding the candidates of cell type-specific surface markers. (c) 2005 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

    Human pancreatic ribonuclease-1 (RNase1) does not exhibit its cytotoxicity unless it is artificially internalized into the cytosol. Furthermore, once it encounters the cytosolic RNase inhibitor (RI), the activity of RNase1 is seriously reduced. To achieve the cellular targeting of RNase1 and the blocking of RI binding simultaneously, the basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) sequence was inserted into RNase1 at the RI binding site using a gene fusion technique. The effect of this fusion protein, CL-RFN89, on the angiogenesis, which was accelerated by FGF-FGF receptor interaction, was investigated. It was shown by using fluorescein-labeled CL-RFN89, that the binding to human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) was dependent on the existence of the FGF receptors. In addition, CL-RFN89 inhibited the cellular growth of HUVECs in vitro and also inhibited the tube formation, using a three-dimensional tube formation assay. Furthermore, this fusion protein was shown to prevent in vivo tumor cell-induced angiogenesis, using the mouse dorsal air sac assay. These results demonstrated that CL-RFN89 inhibits angiogenesis in vitro and in vivo and that it can be expected to be a potent antiangiogenic agent.

    A bio-nanocapsule (BNC), composed of the surface antigen (sAg) of the hepatitis B virus, is an efficient nanomachine with which to accomplish the liver-specific delivery of genes and drugs. Approximately 110 molecules of sAg are associated to form a BNC particle with an average diameter of 130 nm. The L protein is an sAg peptide composed mainly of preS and S regions. The preS region, with specific affinity for human hepatocytes, is localized in the N-terminus. The S region following the preS has two transmembrane regions responsible for the formation of particles. In this study, the fusion of emerald green fluorescent protein (EGFP) at the C-terminus of the S region was designed to deliver proteins to human hepatocytes. Truncation of the C-terminus of the S region was required to obtain sufficient expression levels in Cos7 cells. The nanoparticles that were produced delivered EGFP to human hepatoma cells, displaying the EGFP moiety outside, or enclosing it inside. However, only a single orientation characterizes the particle, so that either type of L fusion particle could be effectively and independently separated by an antibody affinity column. The dual C-terminal topologies of the L fusion particles designed in this study could be applied to various proteins for the C-terminal moiety of the L fusion proteins, depending on the character of the proteins, such as cytoplasmic proteins, as well as cytokines or ligands to cell surface receptors. We suggest that this fusion design is the most efficient way to prepare a BNC that delivers proteins to specific cells or tissues.

    Previously, we have reported that cationized-proteins covalently modified with polyethylenimine (PEI) (direct PEI-cationization) efficiently enter cells and function in the cytosol [Futami et al. (2005) J. Biosci. Bioeng. 99,95-1031. However, it may be more convenient if a protein could be delivered into cells just by mixing the protein with a PEI-cationized carrier protein having a specific affinity (indirect PEI-cationization). Thus, we prepared PEI-cationized avidin (PEI-avidin), streptavidin (PEI-streptavidin), and protein G (PEI-protein G), and examined whether they could deliver biotinylated proteins and antibodies into living cells. PEI-avidin (and/or PEI-streptavidin) carried biotinylated GFPs into various mammalian cells very efficiently. A GFP variant containing a nuclear localization signal was found to arrive even in the nucleus. The addition of a biotinylated RNase A derivative mixed with PEI-streptavidin to a culture medium of 3T3-SV-40 cells resulted in remarkable cell growth inhibition, suggesting that the biotinylated RNase A derivative entered cells and digested intracellular RNA molecules. Furthermore, the addition of a fluorescein-labeled antiS100C (beta-actin binding protein) antibody mixed with PEI-protein G to human fibroblasts resulted in the appearance of a fluorescence image of actin-like filamentous structures in the cells. These results indicate that indirect PEI-cationization using non-covalent interaction is as effective as the direct PEI-cationization for the transduction of proteins into living cells and for expression of their functions in the cytosol. Thus, PEI-cationized proteins having a specific affinity for certain molecules such as PEI-streptavidin, PEI-avidin and PEI-protein G are concluded to be widely applicable protein transduction carrier molecules.

    In the post-genomic era, there is pressing need for development of protein manipulation methodology to analyze functions of proteins in living cells. For this purpose, techniques to deliver functional proteins into living cells are currently being evaluated as alternative approaches to the introduction of transcriptionally active DNA. Here, we describe a novel method for efficient protein transduction into living cells in which a protein is simply cationized with polyethylenimine (PEI) by limited chemical conjugation. PEI-cationized proteins appear to adhere to the cell surface by ionic charge interaction and then internalize into cells in a receptor- and transporter-independent fashion. Since PEI is an organic macromolecule with a high cationic-charge density, limited coupling with PEI results in endowment of sufficient cationic charge to proteins without causing serious decline in their fundamental functions. A number of PEI-cationized proteins, such as ribonuclease (RNase), green fluorescent protein (GFP) and immunoglobulin (IgG), efficiently entered cells and functioned in the cytosol. Our results suggest that protein cationization techniques using PEI will be useful for the development of protein transduction technology.

    Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) was inserted in the middle of human ribonuclease 1 (RNase1) sequence at an RNase inhibitor (RI)-binding site (Gly89) by a new gene fusion technique, insertional-fusion. The resultant insertional-fusion protein (CL-RFN89) was active both as bFGF and as RNase. Furthermore, it acquired an additional ability of evading RI through steric blockade of RI-binding caused by fused bFGF domain. As a result, CL-RFN89 showed stronger growth inhibition on B16/BL6 melanoma cells than an RI-sensitive tandem fusion protein. Thus, the insertional-fusion technique increases accessible positions for gene fusion on RNase, resulting in construction of a potent cytotoxic RNase.

    Hepatitis B virus envelope L particles form hollow nanoparticles displaying a peptide that is indispensable for liver-specific infection by hepatitis B virus in humans. Here we demonstrate the use of L particles for the efficient and specific transfer of a gene or drug into human hepatocytes both in culture and in a mouse xenograft model. In this model, intravenous injection of L particles carrying the gene for green fluorescent protein (GFP) or a fluorescent dye resulted in observable fluorescence only in human hepatocellular carcinomas but not in other human carcinomas or in mouse tissues. When the gene encoding human clotting factor IX was transferred into the xenograft model using L particles, factor IX was produced at levels relevant to the treatment of hemophilia B. The yeast-derived L particle is free of viral genomes, highly specific to human liver cells and able to accommodate drugs as well as genes. These advantages should facilitate targeted delivery of genes and drugs to the human liver.

    There have been some attempts to develop immunotoxins utilizing human RNase as a cytotoxic domain of antitumor agents. We have recently shown that only human RNase 3 (eosinophil cationic protein, ECP) among five human pancreatic-type RNases excels in binding to the cell surface and has a growth inhibition effect on several cancer cell lines, even though the RNase activity of RNase 3 is completely inhibited by the ubiquitously expressed cytosolic RNase inhibitor. This phenomenon may be explained by that RNase 3 is very stable against proteolytic degradation because RNase 3 internalized through endocytosis could have a longer life time in the cytosol, resulting in the accumulation of enough of it to exceed the concentration of RNase inhibitor, which allows the degradation of cytosolic RNA molecules. Thus, we compared the stabilities of human pancreatic-type RNases (RNases 1-5) and bovine RNase A by means of guanidium chloride-induced denaturation experiments based on the assumption of a two-state transition for unfolding. It was demonstrated that RNase 3 is extraordinarily stabler than either RNase A or the other human RNases (by more than 25 kJ/mol). Thus, our data suggest that in addition to its specific affinity for certain cancer cell lines, the stability of RNase 3 contributes to its unique cytotoxic effect and that it is important to stabilize a human RNase moiety through protein engineering for the design of human RNase-based immunotoxins.

    Cationization of a protein is considered to be a powerful strategy for internalizing a functional protein into cells. Cationized proteins appear to adsorb to the cell surface by electrostatic interactions, then enter the cell in a receptor- and transporter-independent fashion. Thus, in principle, all cell types appear to take up cationized proteins. Since ribonucleases (RNases) have a latent cytotoxic potential, cationized RNases could be useful cancer chemotherapeutics. In this study, we investigated the effect of the degree of cationization on the cytotoxicity of RNase A by modifying carboxyl groups with ethylenediamine. We found that there is an optimum degree of modification for cytotoxicity, in which 5 to 7 out of 11 carboxyl groups in RNase A are modified, toward MCF-7 and 3T3-SV-40 cells. More interestingly, the cytotoxicity of cationized RNase As correlates well with the value of [RNase activity] x [estimated concentration of RNase free from RNase inhibitor], mimicking the practical enzymatic activity of cationized RNase As in cytosol. The results indicate that cationization of a protein to an optimum level is important for maintaining protein function in the cytosol. Sophisticated protein cationization techniques will help to advance protein transduction technology.

    The solution structure of the EGF-like domain of betacellulin (BTCe), a newly discovered member of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) family, has been determined using two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. This is the first report to identify the solution structure of the EGF-family ligand monomers that interact with both ErbB-1 and ErbB-4. The solution structure of BTCe was calculated using 538 NMR-derived restraints. The overall structure of BTCe was stabilized by three disulfide bonds, a hydrophobic core, and 23 hydrogen bonds. It appears that BTCe is comprised of five beta-strands and one short 3(10) helical turn. The secondary structural elements of BTCe are basically similar to those of the other EGF-family proteins, except that several significant variations of the structural properties were found. It is suggested that the structural variations between BTCe and the other EGF-family ligands may affect the specific receptor-recognition properties of EGF-family ligands.

    Eosinophil cationic protein (ECP), one of the major components of basic granules of eosinophils, is cytotoxic to tracheal epithelium. However, the extent of this effect on other cell types has not been evaluated in vitro. In this study, we evaluated the effect of ECP on 13 mammalian cell lines. ECP inhibited the growth of several cell lines including those derived from carcinoma and leukemia in a dose-dependent manner. The IC50 values on A431 cells, MDA-MB-453 cells, HL-60 cells and K562 cells were estimated to be approximate to1-5 muM. ECP significantly suppressed the size of colonies of A431 cells, and decreased K562 cells in G(1)/G(0) phase. However, there was little evidence that ECP killed cells in either cell line. These effects of ECP were not enhanced by extending its N-terminus. Rhodamine B isothiocyanate-labeled ECP started to bind to A431 cells after 0.5 h and accumulated for up to 24 h, indicating that specific affinity for the cell surface may be important. ne affinity of ECP for heparin was assessed and found to be reduced when tryptophan residues, one of which is located at a position in the catalytic subsite of ribonuclease in ECP, were modified. The growth-inhibitory effect was also attenuated by this modification. These results suggest that growth inhibition by ECP is dependent on cell type and is cytostatic.

    Carboxyl groups of bovine RNase A were amidated with ethylenediamine (to convert negative charges of carboxylate anions to positive ones), 2-aminoethanol (to eliminate negative charges), and taurine (to keep negative charges), respectively, by a carbodiimide reaction. Human RNase 1 was also modified with ethylenediamine. Surprisingly, the modified RNases were all cytotoxic toward 3T3-SV-40 cells despite their decreased ribonucleolytic activity. However, their enzymatic activity was not completely eliminated by the presence of excess cytosolic RNase inhibitor (RI). As for native RNase A and RNase 1 which were not cytotoxic, they were completely inactivated by RI. More interestingly, within the cytotoxic RNase derivatives. cytotoxicity correlated well with the net positive charge. RNase 1 and RNase A modified with ethylenediamine were more cytotoxic than naturally occurring cytotoxic bovine seminal RNase. An experiment using the fluorescence-labeled RNase derivatives indicated that the more cationic RNases were more efficiently adsorbed to the cells. Thus, it is suggested that the modification of carboxyl groups could change complementarity of RNase to RI and as a result endow RNase cytotoxicity and that cationization enhances the efficiency of cellular uptake of RNase so as to strengthen its cytotoxicity. The finding that an extracellular human enzyme such as RNase 1 could be effectively internalized into the cell by cationization suggests that cationization is a simple strategy for efficient delivery of a protein into cells and may open the way of the development of new therapeutics.

    Human pancreatic ribonuclease 1 (RNase 1) is considered to be the human counterpart of bovine pancreatic RNase A. Truncation of seven amino-acid residues from the aminoterminal sequence resulted in RNase 1 Delta N7, which has a reduced ribonucleolytic activity and a lower affinity for the human placental RNase inhibitor (PRI). This RNase 1 variant has been cloned, heterologously overexpressed, purified and crystallized. Its crystal structure has been determined and refined using data to 1.9 Angstrom resolution. The molecule displays the alpha + beta folding topology typical of members of the RNase A superfamily. The main distinct features found in RNase 1 Delta N7 are basically located in three loops affecting the fitting of the enzyme to the active site of subtilisin and the shape of the B2 subsite. These changes, taken with the lack of the catalytically active residue Lys7, may explain the reduced affinity of RNase 1 Delta N7 for PRI and the low ribonucleolytic activity of the protein when compared with the native enzyme.

  • Stabilization of human RNase 1 by introduction of a disulfide bond between residues 4 and 118

    In order to stabilize human RNase 1 by introduction of an intramolecular cross-link, a mutant protein (4-118CL RNase 1), in which Arg4 and Val118 are replaced with cysteine residues and linked by a disulfide bond, was designed and expressed in Escherichia coli as inclusion bodies. The 4-118CL RNase 1 that refolded under redox conditions was a monomer without free SH groups and retained 11% of the activity of the wild-type recombinant RNase 1, indicating that the mutant enzyme was correctly folded with the formation of an additional disulfide bond between Cys4 and Cys118, From guanidium chloride denaturation experiments based on the assumption of a two-state transition for unfolding, it was demonstrated that the introduction of the present cross-link increased the thermodynamic stability of RNase 1 by 2.0 kcal/mol. This value was lower than that, 5.4 kcal/mol, theoretically calculated from the reduction of chain entropy of the unfolded state due to the introduction of the cross-link. These results suggest that the present cross-link also destabilized the folded state of RNase 1 by 3.4 kcal/mol. Along with the increase in the thermodynamic stability, the stability of RNase 1 against trypsin digestion was also significantly increased by the introduction of this cross-link. It is likely, although not proven, that stabilized human RNases are favorable for clinical use, because human RNase-based immunotoxins should have long half-lives as to proteolytic degradation after endocytosis.

    We investigated how the folding yield of disulfide-containing globular proteins having positive net charges from crude bacterial inclusion bodies was affected by additives in the folding buffer. In screening folding conditions for human ribonucleases and its derivative, we found that addition of salt (about 0.4 M) to a folding buffer increased the folding yield. This suggested that electrostatic interaction between polyanionic impurities such as nucleic acids and cationic unfolded protein led to the formation of aggregates under the low-salt conditions. Since inclusion bodies were found to contain nucleic acids regardless of the electrostatic nature of the expressed protein, the electrostatic interaction between phosphate moieties of nucleic acids and basic amino acid residues of a denatured protein may be large enough to cause aggregation, and therefore the addition of salt in a folding buffer may generally be useful for promotion of protein folding from crude inclusion bodies. We further systematically investigated additives such as glycerol, guanidium chloride, and urea that are known to act as chemical chaperons, and found that these additives, together with salt, synergistically improved folding yield. This study, suggesting that the addition of salt into the folding buffer is one of the crucial points to be considered, may pave the way for a systematic investigation of the folding conditions of disulfide-containing foreign proteins from crude bacterial inclusion bodies.

    Betacellulin (BTC) purified from mouse beta cell tumor (beta TC-3) is a new member of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) family which can bind receptor tyrosine kinase, EGF receptor (erbB1) and erbB4. It has been demonstrated that proBTC mRNA was abundantly expressed in human pancreas tissue, and that ETC converted amylase-secreting rat acinar cell line (AR42J) into insulin-secreting cells, suggesting that ETC might be important for the growth and/or differentiation of islet cells. However, the cell type producing ETC in the pancreas has not been clarified. In this study, we examined the localization of ETC in human pancreas and islet cell tumors. Immunohistochemistry using specific antibodies to human ETC revealed that this protein was produced in alpha cells and duct cells, and probably in beta cells in normal adult pancreas. Furthermore, strong immunoreactivity to ETC was detected in primitive duct cells of the fetal pancreas, and both insulinoma and glucagonoma cells also showed positive immunoreactivity to ETC. EGF receptor (erbB1) and erbB4 were expressed mainly in islet and duct cells, and duct cells, respectively. These results demonstrate the localization of ETC and its receptors, and suggest that ETC may be one of the factors that have physiologically important roles such as growth and differentiation of islet cells in the human pancreas.

    Pancreatic-type RNases are considered to have cytotoxic potential due to their ability to degrade RNA molecules when they enter the cytosol. However, most of these RNases show little cytotoxicity because cells have no active uptake mechanism for these RNases and because the ubiquitous cytoplasmic RNase inhibitor is considered to play a protective role against the endocytotic leak of RNases from the outside of cells. To study the cytotoxic potential of RNase toward malignant cells targeting growth factor receptors, the C-terminus of human RNase 1 was fused to the N-terminus of human basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF). This RNase-FGF fused protein effectively inhibited the growth of mouse melanoma cell line B16/BL6 with high levels of cell surface FGF receptor. This effect appeared to result from prolongation of the overall cell cycle rather than the killing of cells or specific arrest in a particular phase of the cell cycle. Thus, human RNase 1 fused to a ligand of cell surface molecules, such as the FGF receptor, is shown to be an effective candidate for a selective cell targeting agent with low toxic effects on normal cell types.

    Betacellulin (BTC) was originally isolated as a secreted growth factor from a mouse pancreatic beta-tumor cell line, whereas the cDNA sequence predicts that ETC is synthesized as a larger transmembrane protein. In the present study, we have characterized the membrane-anchored forms of BTC, using Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, mouse fibroblast A9 cells, and a human breast cancer cell line MCF-7, all of which were stably transfected with human ETC cDNA. A9 and MCF-7 transfectants produced membrane-anchored ETC isoforms of 21, 25, 29, and 40 kDa on the cell surface, as well as a secreted BTC isoform. CHO transfectants secreted little ETC but accumulated the membrane-anchored isoforms. The cleavage of the membrane-anchored forms to release a secreted from of ETC was not enhanced by biological mediators such as a phorbol ester, which stimulates the cleavage of other membrane-anchored growth factors. The membrane-anchored forms of ETC expressed on the transfected cells induced the insulin production and/or promoted the growth in subclones of AR42J rat pancreatic cells. These results suggest that the membrane-anchored ETC can function as a juxtacrine factor in regulating the growth and differentiation of pancreatic endocrine cells. J. Cell.

    The physiological significance of the soluble fibroblast growth factor (FGF) receptors is not clear yet although they are present in blood, vitreous fluid and in the extracellular matrix of vascular endothelial cells. A hypothesis that they might help FGF-2 release from cells is very interesting because FGF-2 does not have clear secretion signal and the mechanism of the secretion of FGF-2 is still unclear. Single overexpression of FGF-2 is related neither to the secretion potential of the molecule nor to the tumorigenicity of the cells. In this report, BALB/c 3T3 cells transformed with the full length of human FGF-2 cDNA are further transformed with the cDNA coding the extracellular domain of human FGF receptor 1. The obtained transformants co-expressing FGF-2 and soluble FGF receptor are highly tumorigenic in nude mice, while the parental cells do not show any tumorigenicity. In the conditioned medium of the double-transformants, FGF-2 is immunologically detected. These results suggest that naturally produced soluble form of FGF receptor supports the release of FGF-2 from the cells and that over-expression of these two molecules leads to induce the malignant tumours in vivo.

    Expression/secretion vectors for the production of Fab' and single-chain (Sc) Fab' by Bacillus brevis have been constructed. For the production of Fab', the cDNAs encoding the L chain and Fd' fragment (Fd with the hinge region) of a mouse-human chimeric Fab' against human urokinase-type plasminogen activator were fused directly with the translation-start and signal-peptide-encoding regions of the mwp gene, the gene for one of the major cell-wall proteins of Bacillus brevis. The two fused genes were placed tandemly downstream from the promoter of the cell-wall protein gene operon (cwp) of B. brevis. For the production of scFab', the two cDNAs were linked with a synthetic oligonucleotide encoding a flexible peptide linker of 17 or 24 amino acids, and fused with the translation start and signal-peptide-encoding regions of the mwp gene. Fab' was efficiently produced by B. brevis, being accumulated at a level of 100 mg/l in the culture medium in a simple shake-flask culture, which is the highest level obtained so far for a gram-positive bacterium. On the other hand, the scFab' remained at a level of a few milligrams per liter in the culture medium. The Fab' produced by B. brevis showed comparable antigen-binding activity to that of the parental antibody. The L chain and Fd' fragment, constituting the Fab', had the correct N-terminal amino acid sequences. These results indicate that B. brevis is a very promising host for the production of native Ig fragments.

    Betacellulin (BTC) was found to be expressed mainly in human pancreas and small intestine. This finding suggests that ETC possesses some specific function distinguished from the other members of epidermal growth factor (EGF) family. To clarify this function, the released form of human ETC has been expressed in E.coli, purified, and characterized. The recombinant human ETC was produced as an inclusion body. This material was dissolved in guanidine-HCl under reducing conditions, refolded, and purified through sequential liquid chromatography. Purified ETC was electrophoresed under reducing conditions and a molecular size of 18 kDa was determined, which is the supposed size of a dimer of the peptide. However, chemical analysis failed to show a covalently linked dimer. The molecular mass of ETC analyzed by mass spectrometry revealed it to be 9 kDa, which is consistent with theoretical value for a monomer. Recombinant ETC showed growth promoting activity for mouse fibroblasts and rat aortic smooth muscle cells which was equivalent to EGF. On the other hand, ETC was found to exhibit a growth inhibitory effect on the cells overexpressing EGF receptor.

    Human pancreatic ribonuclease I (hRNase 1) in the mature form has been produced in E.coli using T7 expression system. The recombinant hRNase 1 protein was solubilized from the inclusion bodies, refolded in glutathione redox system, and purified through chromatographic procedures by utilizing cation-exchange and reversed-phase columns. The ribonucleolytic activity of recombinant hRNase 1 was examined on yeast RNA and cytidylyl-3′,5′-adenosine revealing the distinctive ribonucleolytic activity. The activity was perfectly inhibited by human placental RNase inhibitor. Truncation of 7 amino acid residues in the amino-terminal sequence resulted in much reduction in ribonucleolytic activity and in affinity to human placental RNase inhibitor with the disintegration of secondary structures of the protein observed by circular dichroism spectra. The present study has revealed the important contribution of the amino-terminal sequence of hRNase I to the characteristics of the protein. © 1995 by Academic Press, Inc.

    可逆的変性カチオン化法による変性タンパク質の可溶化条件の最適化と、in cellフォルディング法によるタンパク質細胞内導入の定量化を行った。ガン抑制タンパク質:p53を大腸菌におけるタンパク質発現系で不溶性のインクルージョンボディとして発現し、1分子内に存在する10個のシステイン残基に対し、ジスルフィド結合を介してカチオン性ポリマーであるポリエチレンイミン(PEI,平均分子量600)を連結した。精製後のPEI600-SS-p53の分子量を質量分析計で測定したところ、1分子あたり6個のPEI600が結合していたが、残り4個のシステイン残基は立体障害により修飾できないことが確認された。ことから、小分子の1価の正電荷導入試薬(APS-Sulfonate)で残存するシステインを保護することが重要であると判断された。また、変性・還元状態のp53をAPS-Sulfonateで可逆的変性カチオン化したAP-SS-p53(net charge:+6)も可溶性であったため、PEI600-SS-p53(+81.6)と細胞内導入能の比較を行った。その結果、p53を欠損するSaos-2細胞に対し、より高い正電荷を保有するPEI600-SS-p53の方が10倍以上の効率で細胞内導入に伴う機能発現が確認され、高い正電荷を付与することは細胞内導入を亢進するために有効な手段であることが確認された。次に可逆的変性カチオン化法によるタンパク質可溶化の一般性を確認するため、大腸菌でインクルージョンボディとして発現されるヒトβアクチンを材料として可溶化を試みた。βアクチンは疎水性の高い酸性タンパク質(-10)であり、分子内に6個のシステイン残基を保有するが、分子量300以上のPEIを用いて可逆的変性カチオン化を行った場合にのみ、高い溶解性を付与することができ、さらに4℃で半年以上保存が可能なことが確認された。以上の結果、多種多様の物性のタンパク質を変性状態として可溶化・精製するための方法論と試薬系が確立した。これらの技術を活用して、これまで6種類のタンパク質を用いた評価系すべてでin cell foldingが可能なことを確認し、本技術の一般性を証明した。

    ヒトB型肝炎ウィルス(HBV)のエンベロープ蛋白質(HBsAg)のみを動物細胞や酵母で発現させると、宿主細胞の小胞体由来脂質二重膜を取り込みながら自己凝集することにより、直径50〜500nmのウィルス様中空粒子(HBsAg粒子)を形成する。本研究では、このHBsAg蛋白質による中空ナノ粒子構造形成の分子機構の解明に取り組んだ。
    1)まずHBsAg蛋白質中で粒子形成に必要な領域および不必要な領域を特定するために、種々の領域を欠失させたHBsAg蛋白質を作製し、その粒子形成能の有無を調べた。その結果全長226残基のHBsAg蛋白質のうち、C末端疎水性領域71浅基中にお54残基、粒子外部親水性領域57残基中の50残基、粒子内部親水性領域50残基中の44残基を欠失させても、非欠失体の50%以上の粒子分泌を示した。C末端54残基と粒子外部50残基の合計104残基、C末端領域54残基と粒子内部44残基の合計98残基は、同時に欠失させても非欠失体の50%以上の粒子分泌を示し、これらの領域は粒子形成に必要ではない事が解明された。同時に、C末端疎水性領域N末端の18残基残基は粒子形成に必要な配列と特定された。
    2)上記で特定された18残基必要配列に種々のアミノ酸置を導入した結果、この必要配列から(1)両親媒性helix構造をとりうる、(2)膜界面指向性の強いtrp残基を多く含む、という特徴を失わせる変異を導入すると、徐々に粒子分泌量が減少した事からぐこの必要領域が膜表在型helix壷取る事が重要と示唆された。
    この安定な膜表在型helix領域が、HBsAg蛋白質による粒子構造(中空球構造)形成に必要な「自己凝集能」と「曲率」を生み出しているものと考えられる。

    (1)モデル蛍光化合物(カルセイン)を、本研究のバイオナノ粒子に封入した後種々の培養細胞株培養液に添加したところ、カルセインはヒト肝癌細胞株特異的に導入された。この結果は、バイオナノ粒子の低分子化合物の標的細胞特異的送達用ベクターとして有用性を示すものである。
    (2)低分子薬剤を効率良く標的細胞に送達するためには、粒子内薬剤封入量を多くする事が要求される。そこでまず、カルセインをモデル薬剤として粒子内の薬剤封入量測定系を設定した。この測定系を用いて、封入操作(エレクトロポレーション)時の条件検討を行ない、カルセイン封入のための至適条件を見い出した。
    (3)バイオナノ粒子への薬物封入量をさらに上げるために、バイオナノ粒子側の改良も試みた。バイオナノ粒子の主成分であるL蛋白質は酵母菌体内ではモノマーであるが、従来の方法で調製したバイオナノ粒子はその精製過程で分子間ss結合を形成しポリマー化することで、粒子内へ薬物導入しにくい状態になっていた。そこで、粒子形成に不要なCys残基を化学修飾によりblockした粒子および不要なCys残基8個を置換した変異体粒子を調製したところ、薬物封入量を1.7倍および2.5倍増量できたことより、不必要なSS結合抑制が薬物封入量増大に有効であることが示された。薬物封入効率の良い改良型バイオナノ粒子変異体を調製できた。
    (4)(3)の改良型バイオナノ粒子と(2)の至適封入条件を用いて、抗癌剤(パクリタキセル)を封入したバイオナノ粒子を調製した後、標的細胞(ヒト肝癌細胞株HepG2)に添加した。その結果、抗癌剤単独よりも約5倍強い細胞増殖阻害活性を示した。
    以上により、バイオナノ粒子の抗癌剤の標的細胞特異的伝達のキャリヤとしての有用性が証明された。

    カルボキシル基をエチレンジアミン(ED)でアミド化したウシのRNaseAはキャリアードメインなしでも,SV40で悪性化したSwissマウス3T3細胞株(3T3/SV40)に対して強い細胞毒性(GI_<50>=0.17μM)を示すことを昨年報告した。これはEDによるカルボキシル基の修飾でRNaseAがカチオン化され,アニオン性のガン細胞表面に効率よく濃縮されるために細胞に進入しやすくなること,及び導入したEDの立体障害で細胞内のRNaseインヒビターによる酵素活性の阻害を受けなくなることが原因と考えられた。この修飾では,RNase活性も大きく低下するため,今年度はEDによる修飾率を様々に変えたRNaseA誘導体を調製し,修飾率と細胞毒性及びRNase活性の関係を調べた。その結果,修飾率を上昇(カチオン性の増大)させるとRNase活性は単調に低下する(最大で0.2%まで低下)のに対し,細胞増殖阻害活性には最適の修飾率(最適のものはRNase活性が8.8%でGI_<50>が0.06μM)が存在することがわかった。さらに少ないカルボキシル基の修飾でRNase活性の低下を抑えつつかつ効率よく正電荷を導入することが可能かどうかを調べるために,種々の平均分子量を持つポリエチレンイミン1分子をカルボキシル基に導入したRNaseA誘導体を調製したところ,RNase活性は使用したポリエチレンイミンの平均分子量によらずほぼ一定(約25%)だが,細胞毒性は正電荷の増加(∝ポリエチレンイミンの平均分子量)とともに強まることが明らかになった(GI_<50>=3.3〜0.33μM)。以上の結果より,RNase活性の低下を抑えつつ,大きな正電荷を導入したRNaseは,成長因子とハイブリッド化して成長因子受容体を標的とするガン細胞を標的とする細胞増殖阻害剤を構築するための毒素ドメインとしてきわめて有用であると結論した。

    膵由来型RNaseはRNA加水分解酵素なので,細胞内に入れば毒になる可能性がある。しかし細胞はRNaseを積極的に取り込む機構を持たず,また細胞内に普遍的に存在するRNaseインヒビターが誤って漏れ込むRNaseを無毒化するため,これらのRNaseはほとんど毒性を示さない。成長因子の受容体を標的として利用したときの悪性細胞に対するRNaseの毒としての潜在能力を調べるために,ヒト膵臓RNase(RNase1)のC末端側をヒト塩基性線維芽細胞成長因子(bFGF)のN末端側につないだ融合蛋白質を調製した。その結果,このRNase-FGF融合蛋白質は,FGF受容体を細胞表面に過剰発現していることが知られている培養ガン細胞であるマウス黒色腫細胞株B16/BL6に対して効果的に増殖を阻害した。この増殖阻害効果は,細胞を殺したり,ある特定の段階で細胞周期ストップさせる効果ではなく,細胞周期全体の回転速度を一様に遅くする効果であることがわかった。以上のことより,ヒトRNaselは,FGF受容体のような細胞表面蛋白質に対するリガンドとつなぐことによって,正常細胞には毒性を示さず,悪性細胞のみに選択的毒性を発揮する能力を持つ有望な分子であると結論された。

    明確な分泌シグナルを持たないためその細胞外移行のメカニズムが明らかにされていない塩基性線維芽細胞増殖因子(bFGF)とその可溶性受容体およびクリプト(CR-1)を発現する細胞株を樹立しこれらの分子がどのような分布を示して細胞外へと輸送され、また細胞表面から遊離されるのか、その機構と経路を解析した。
    bFGFについてはその可溶性受容体の共発現系をマウス正常線維芽細胞BALB/c3T3を用いて確立し、この形質転換細胞がbFGFを培地中に分泌することを確認した。これはbFGFを単独で発現させても観察できない現象であり、bFGFの細胞外移行に可溶性受容体が関与している可能性を示すことができた。また、上皮細胞成長因子のモチーフをもつ新しい増殖因子CR-1について、種々の方法でその性質を解析したが、細胞で発現したCR-1はウェスタンブロッティングで20、22、24、28Kdの分子量を示した。ツニカマイシン存在下では、さらに約18Kdの分子量が主になり、遺伝子の配列から分泌シグナルを予測すると36アミノ酸がプロセスされる結果、約17Kdの分子量になると考えられることと一致する。これは通常のプロセッシングが行われていることを示唆するものである。ところが、この36アミノ酸を欠失した分子を細胞で発現させても、培養上清中にCR-1が分泌されていることを新たに発見しCR-1が細胞外へ輸送される別の経路が存在することがわかった。以上の成果により、さらに研究を進める上で重要な知見を積み重ねることができた。近年CR-1は発生段階で非常に重要な役割を果たしていることが示唆され、その機能を解析するためにも本研究の重要性はさらに高まっている。
