We describe a versatile and tuneable thiol responsive linker system using thiovinylketones, which relies on the conjugate addition-elimination mechanism of Michael acceptors for traceless release therapeutics. In proof-of-principle study, we translate our findings to exhibit potent thiol-cleavable antibiotic prodrugs antibody-drug conjugates.

Abstract Leucine-rich repeat-containing G-protein receptor 5 (LGR5) has been characterised as a stem cell and cancer marker. Previous analyses of LGR5 transcript levels indicate high level expression discriminates malignancies such colorectal (CRC) pre-B acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (pre-B ALL) from healthy tissues suggesting protein may provide molecular handle for prognosis treatment. We have developed highly specific, affinity antibodies to the extracellular domain human (α-LGR5) that...
