Popis: | In this preclinical study, the potential applicability of an anti-B7-1 immunotoxin (IT) for the treatment of Hodgkin's disease (HD) was investigated. Immunohistochemical analysis demonstrated strong expression of B7-1 on Hodgkin and Reed-Sternberg (R-S) cells and clear expression on dendritic cells, macrophages and some B-cells in tissues, but not on other tissue cells. Flow cytometric analysis demonstrated that B7-1 was expressed on a few monocytes, but not on CD34+ cells from bone marrow, resting T- or B-cells from peripheral blood or epithelial and endothelial cell lines. An anti-B7-1 immunotoxin containing the anti-B7-1 monoclonal antibody (MAb) B7-24 and saporin as toxin moiety was constructed and showed an affinity similar to that shown by the native MAb. It exhibited strong cytotoxicity against the B7-1+ B-cell line Raji (IC50 10(-11) M), R-S cell lines HDLM2, KM/H2 and L428 and also against a B7-1-transfected epithelial cell line, A431, whose parental line lacks expression of B7-1. In clonogenic assays with Raji cells or KM/H2 cells, a 3- or 4-log kill, respectively, was observed. No cytotoxicity was found against the B7-1- epithelial and endothelial cell lines or against haematopoietic progenitor cells. In conclusion, an anti-B7-1 immunotoxin was developed that had good cytotoxicity against R-S cell lines and that may be used in the elimination of R-S cells in vivo. A concomitant elimination of activated antigen-presenting cells may avoid development of antitoxin and anti-mouse Ig responses and allow repeated administration. Images Figure 1 |
