Albumin-mediated Delivery of Therapeutic Peptides for Pancreatic Cancer Therapy

ABSTRACT: Bioactive peptides are promising agents for therapeutic applications, however their small size results in poor stability, low bioavailability and rapid renal clearance, so its widespread use is limited. To address these issues, fusing or conjugating peptides to suitable molecular scaffolds is required. In this study, human serum albumin (HSA) is used as a delivery carrier for human β-defensin-2 peptides (HBD2) in the production of HSA-delivered defensin complex (ADDC) to facilitate its cellular uptake and transport to intracellular targets. Conjugation can improve the stability of HBD2, while extend the circulation time and promote its accumulation within tumor, thereby improving the therapeutic efficacy. Herein, ADDC provides a protective structure against the harsh external environment and serves as a passive tumor-targeted system. Our data showed that the combination of ADDC with clinically relevant drugs, such as Doxorubicin, Gemcitabine, Cisplatin, and Cetuximab can significantly increase the cytotoxicity of ADDC on human pancreatic cancer cells. The results of bioinformatics analysis also revealed that ADDC may affect the metabolic processes, gene transcription and apoptosis of pancreatic cancer cells. Collectively, ADDC exhibited specific tumor targeting capabilities, low systemic toxicity, and enhanced antitumor efficacy in a mouse model of pancreatic cancer.

Quantification of glycated human serum albumin peptides

Project description:Human serum albumin is the most abundant plasma protein with a large number of lysine and arginine residues. Hence, it is highly susceptible to glycation in vivo. In hyperglycemic conditions, such as diabetes, the level of HSA glycation increases. Here we quantified glycated HSA peptides in a subject population of healthy and type 2 diabetes with and without nephropathy to assess its performance for the diagnosis of diabetic nephropathy compared to HbA1c.

A Gram-positive three-component antimicrobial peptide-sensing system

Project description:To survive during colonization or infection of the human body, microorganisms must defeat antimicrobial peptides, which represent a key component of innate host defense in phagocytes and on epithelia. However, is not known how the clinically important group of Gram-positive bacteria sense antimicrobial peptides to coordinate a directed defensive response. By determining the genome-wide gene regulatory response to human beta defensin 3 in the nosocomial pathogen Staphylococcus epidermidis, we discovered an antimicrobial peptide sensor system that controls major specific resistance mechanisms to antimicrobial peptides and is unrelated to the Gram-negative PhoP/PhoQ system. Wild type untreated in triplicate is compared to wild type treated in triplicate along with three mutants in triplicate with and without treatment of human beta defensin 3, totalling 30 samples

Flotillin-1 palmitoylation is essential for its stability and subsequent tumor promoting capabilities.

Project description:Flotillin-1 contributes to invasion and metastasis in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). Palmitoylation, the process of conjugating palmitoyl-CoA to proteins, plays an essential role in protein stability and trafficking. Flotillin-1 is modified by palmitoylation, however, the role of its palmitoylation in the context of metastasis has not been explored. Using palmitoylation defective flotillin-1 constructs, we have demonstrated that flotillin-1 palmitoylation contributes to its stability and metastatic capabilities in vivo. Further investigation led to the identification of zDHHC5 as the main palmitoyl acyl transferase responsible for palmitoylating flotillin-1, which also contributed to its stability by preventing its poly-ubiquitylation. To assess the ability to target flotillin-1 palmitoylation therapeutically, we designed a competitive peptide, which displayed efficacy in blocking flotillin-1 palmitoylation in vitro without altering palmitoylation of other zDHHC5 substrates, highlighting its specificity. Additionally, multiple TNBC tumor models expressing a doxycycline inducible flotillin-1 palmitoylation inhibiting peptide construct displayed attenuated tumor growth and lung metastasis. The current study has demonstrated the palmitoylation of flotillin-1, a known metastasis inducing protein, to be essential for its protein stability. The demonstrated methods in blocking its palmitoylation through the delivery of a competitive peptide provide proof-of-concept data for further development as a potential targeted therapeutic in TNBC.

Cytidine deaminase resolves replicative stress and protects pancreatic cancer from DNA-targeting drugs

Project description:Cytidine deaminase (CDA) functions in the pyrimidine salvage pathway for DNA and RNA synthesis and has been shown to protect cancer cells from deoxycytidine-based chemotherapies. In this study, we observed that CDA was overexpressed in pancreatic adenocarcinoma from patients at baseline and was essential for experimental tumor growth. Mechanistic investigations revealed that CDA localized to replication forks where it increased replication speed, improved replication fork restart efficiency, reduced endogenous replication stress, minimized DNA breaks, and regulated genetic stability during DNA replication. In cellular pancreatic cancer models, high CDA expression correlated with resistance to DNA-damaging agents. Silencing CDA in patient-derived primary cultures in vitro and in orthotopic xenografts in vivo increased replication stress and sensitized pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells to oxaliplatin. This study sheds light on the role of CDA in pancreatic adenocarcinoma, offering insights into how this tumor type modulates replication stress. These findings suggest that CDA expression could potentially predict therapeutic efficacy and that targeting CDA induces intolerable levels of replication stress in cancer cells, particularly when combined with DNA-targeted therapies

Characterisation and use of orthotopically grownHapT1tumours in its homologous host as a preclinical model to evaluate novel drugs against desmoplastic pancreatic cancer

Project description:The major objective of this study was to characterise theHapT1 orthotopic hamster pancreatic tumor as a preclinical model of desmoplastic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma; and use this model to validate the efficacy of drugs that kills activated pancreatic stellate cells (PSCs)in vitro. Experimentaldesign: Commercially procured HapT1 pancreatic cancer (PCA) cell line was implanted in the pancreas of its syngeneic host, Syrian golden hamster (Mesocricetusauratus). After certain time period the primary and secondary tumors were harvested for histological andimmunophynotypical analysis. PSCs of hamsters were harvested, cultured and characterised. The in-cultured activated rodent PSCs and commercially procured human PSCs were used to check the cytotoxic effect of Disulfiram (DSF) in presence and absence of copper (Cu )in vitro. Finally, theHapT1 orthotopic tumor model was used to check the efficacy of DSF in vivo.
