Activation of toll-like receptors (TLRs) on cells of the innate immune system initiates, amplifies, and directs the antigen-specific acquired immune response. Ligands that stimulate TLRs, therefore, represent potential immune adjuvants. In this study, a potent TLR7 agonist was conjugated to phospholipids, poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), or phospholipid-PEG via a versatile benzoic acid functional g...
Activation of the NO/cGMP pathway modulates smooth muscle cells relaxation and hence vasoconstriction, a major hindrance for the use of cell-free haemoglobin (Hb) as blood substitute, despite conjugation with 5-kDa maleimide poly(ethylene)-glycol (PEG) reduces vasoconstriction in vivo. We aimed at assessing how a recently developed PEGylated-Hb (Deoxy-PEGHb) and manipulation of the NO/cGMP path...
Covalent attachment of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) to therapeutic antibody fragments has been found effective in prolonging the half-life of the protein molecule in vivo. In this study analytical ultracentrifugation (AUC) in combination with small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) has been applied to a number of antibody fragments and to their respective PEGylated conjugates. Despite the large incr...
Human glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is a physiological gastrointestinal peptide with glucose-dependent insulinotropic effects which is therefore considered an interesting antidiabetic agent. However, after in vivo administration, exogenous GLP-1 does not exert its physiological action due to the combination of rapid proteolytic degradation by ubiquitous dipeptidyldipeptidase IV (DPP IV) enzym...
Surface PEGylation of nanoparticles designed for biomedical applications is a common and straightforward way to stabilize the materials for in vivo administration and to increase their circulation time. This strategy becomes less trivial when MRI active porous nanomaterials are concerned as their function relies on water/proton-exchange between the pores and bulk water. Here we present a compre...
Phenylboronic acid (PBA)-mediated tumor targeting nanovector is an attractive strategy for enhancing siRNA delivery and treatment of metastatic cancers. However, its nonspecific binding with various biological membranes containing cis-diol moieties restricts its potential application by systematic administration. Herein, we constructed a novel pH-activated "sheddable" PEG-coated nanoparticle fo...
Immunoliposomes (antibody-directed liposomes) were used in the present study for delivery of the antineoplastic agent daunomycin to the rat brain. A coupling procedure was introduced, which allows conjugation of a thiolated antibody to maleimide-grafted 85-nm liposomes sterically stabilized with PEG. Antibody was thereby coupled to the terminal end of a PEG-conjugated linker lipid. No brain upt...
Conjugation of cytotoxic compounds to antibodies that bind to cancer-specific antigens makes these drugs selective in killing cancer cells. However, many of the compounds used in such antibody-drug conjugates (ADC) are substrates for the multidrug transporter MDR1. To evade the MDR1-mediated resistance, we conjugated the highly cytotoxic maytansinoid DM1 to antibodies via the maleimidyl-based h...
Although it is widely accepted that one can extend the pharmacokinetic half-life of a therapeutic protein by covalent conjugation with polyethylene glycol (PEG), the disposition properties of such biologics have not yet been fully evaluated. Therefore, a novel [¹⁴C]-labeling method was developed that can be applied to a biologic conjugated with PEG through a maleimide-cysteine reaction. The met...
BACKGROUND Recent advances in nanomedicine have shown the great interest of active targeting associated to nanoparticles. Single chain variable fragments (scFv) of disease-specific antibodies are very promising targeting entities because they are small, not immunogenic and able to bind their specific antigens. The present paper is devoted to biological properties in vitro and in vivo of fluores...
