Targeted Delivery of HSP70 to Tumor Cells via Supramolecular Complex Based on HER2-Specific DARPin9_29 and the Barnase:Barstar Pair.

ABSTRACT: (1) Background: We have previously shown that the use of an artificial supramolecular two-component system based on chimeric recombinant proteins 4D5scFv-barnase and barstar-heat shock protein 70 KDa (HSP70) allows targeted delivery of HSP70 to the surface of tumor cells bearing HER2/neu antigen. In this work, we studied the possibility to using DARPin9_29-barnase as the first targeting module recognizing HER2/neu-antigen in the HSP70 delivery system. (2) Methods: The effect of the developed systems for HSP70 delivery to human carcinomas SK-BR-3 and BT474 cells hyperexpressing HER2/neu on the activation of cytotoxic effectors of the immune cells was studied in vitro. (3) Results: The results obtained by confocal microscopy and cytofluorimetric analysis confirmed the binding of HSP70 or its
