Abstract Targeted degradation of cell surface and extracellular proteins via lysosomal delivery is an important means to modulate biology. However, these approaches have limitations due lack modularity, ease development, restricted tissue targeting applicability both proteins. We describe a strategy, termed cytokine receptor-targeting chimeras (KineTACs), that addresses limitations. KineTACs are fully genetically encoded bispecific antibodies consisting arm, which binds its cognate receptor,...
Significance Noonan syndrome (NS) is a developmental disorder caused by germ-line mutations in various components of the RAS signaling pathway. The pathophysiological mechanisms underlying clinical manifestations NS patients and basis for observed phenotypic variability are poorly understood. To date, mouse models carrying Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase Non-Receptor type 11 ( Ptpn11 ), Son Sevenless homolog 1 Sos1 Raf1 loci have been described. new model described here, induced K- Ras V14I...
The tumor uptake of large non-targeted nanocarriers primarily occurs through passive extravasation, known as the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect. Prior studies demonstrated improved 4-arm 40 kDa star polyethylene glycol (StarPEG) polymers for cancer imaging by adding prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) targeting small molecule ligands. To test PSMA-targeted delivery therapeutic efficacy, StarPEG nanodrugs with/without three copies PSMA-targeting ligands, ACUPA, are...
Abstract Safely expanding indications for cellular therapies has been challenging given a lack of highly cancer-specific surface markers. Here we explore the hypothesis that tumor cells express protein conformations are invisible to standard target discovery pipelines evaluating gene or expression, and these can be identified immunotherapeutically targeted. We term this strategy integrating cross-linking mass spectrometry with glycoprotein capture ‘structural surfaceomics’. As proof...
Pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) is a rare and poorly understood malignant condition characterized by the accumulation of intra-abdominal mucin produced from peritoneal metastases. Currently, cytoreductive surgery remains mainstay treatment but disease recurrence death after relapse frequently occur in patients with PMP. New therapeutic strategies are therefore urgently needed for these patients.
Background A critical challenge in the management of Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM) tumors is accurate diagnosis and assessment tumor progression a noninvasive manner. We have identified Membrane-type 1 matrix metalloproteinase (MT1-MMP) as an attractive biomarker for GBM imaging since this protein actively involved growth progression, correlates with grade closely associated poor prognosis patients. Here, we report development immunoPET tracer effective detection MT1-MMP models. Methods An...
Despite the success of BCMA-targeting CAR-Ts in multiple myeloma, patients with high-risk cytogenetic features still relapse most quickly and are urgent need additional therapeutic options. Here, we identify CD70, widely recognized as a favorable immunotherapy target other cancers, specifically upregulated cell surface antigen high risk myeloma tumors. We use structure-guided design to define CD27-based anti-CD70 CAR-T that outperforms all tested scFv-based CARs, leading >80-fold improved...
