Cytotoxic activity of chimeric toxins containing the epidermal growth factor-like domain of heregulins fused to PE38KDEL, a truncated recombinant form of Pseudomonas exotoxin.

The EGF-like domains of heregulin alpha, beta 1, beta 2, and beta 3 were fused to a truncated form of Pseudomonas exotoxin (PE38KDEL), which contains a modified carboxyl-terminal sequence, KDEL, that increases that toxin activity. The resulting chimeric toxins were produced in Escherichia coli, purified to near homogeneity, and shown to be cytotoxic to target cells with very high activity on HT...

Polyethylene glycol-modified chimeric toxin composed of transforming growth factor alpha and Pseudomonas exotoxin.

Modification of proteins with monomethoxy-polyethylene glycol (mPEG) has been shown to prolong circulation time and to reduce immunogenicity. To make a mPEG-modified recombinant toxin that retained cytotoxic activity but had a longer residence time in circulation, we have constructed an altered form of TGF alpha-PE40, a recombinant toxin composed of human transforming growth factor alpha (TGF a...

Modulation of apoptotic response of a radiation-resistant human carcinoma by Pseudomonas exotoxin-chimeric protein.

Strategies to sensitize human tumors that are resistant to apoptosis have been clinically unsuccessful. We demonstrate that a structurally modified chimeric Pseudomonas exotoxin, PEdelta53L/TGF-alpha/KDEL, with binding specificity for the epidermal growth factor receptor, markedly enhances sensitivity of human xenografts to radiation killing. Exposure to PEdelta53L/TGF-alpha/KDEL decreases the ...

cytotoxic effect of immunotoxin containing the truncated form of pseudomonas exotoxin cell lines

objective: immunotoxins (its) have been developed for the treatment of cancer, and comprise of antibodies linked to toxins. also vascular endothelial growth factor (vegf) plays a key role in tumor angiogenesis, and the blockade of vegf receptor-2 (vegfr2) inhibits angiogenesis and tumor growth. the aim of this study was to produce anti-vegfr2/rpe (pseudomonas exotoxin) 38 it to test its cytotox...
