Popis: Abstract Antibodies against immune checkpoint molecules restore T-cell function by inhibiting the binding of PD-1 and PD-L1 and have been shown to exert therapeutic effects in various human cancers. However, to date, no monoclonal antibody that recognizes feline PD-1 or PD-L1 has been reported, and there are many unknowns regarding the expression of immune checkpoint molecules and their potential as therapeutic targets in cats. Here we developed anti-feline PD-1 monoclonal antibody (1A1-2), and found that the monoclonal antibody against anti-canine PD-L1 (G11-6), which was previously developed in our laboratory, cross-reacted with feline PD-L1. Both antibodies inhibited the interaction of feline PD-1 and feline PD-L1 in vitro. These inhibitory monoclonal antibodies augmented the interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) production in activated feline peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs). Furthermore, for clinical application in cats, we generated a mouse-feline chimeric mAb by fusing the variable region of clone 1A1-2 with the constant region of feline IgG1 (ch-1A1-2). Ch-1A1-2 also augmented the IFN-γ production in activated feline PBLs. From this study, 1A1-2 is first anti-feline PD-1 monoclonal antibody with the ability to inhibit the interaction of feline PD-1 and PD-L1, and the chimeric antibody, ch-1A1-2 will be a beneficial therapeutic antibody for feline tumors.
