Immunogenic and tolerogenic effects of the chimeric IL-2-diphtheria toxin cytocidal agent Ontak® on CD25+ cells
Ontak®, a conjugate between IL-2 and a diphtheria toxin fragment, was recently investigated in cancer clinical trials aiming to kill CD25+ regulatory T cells (Tregs). We found that the activity of Ontak® was more complex on Tregs and conventional T cells (Tconvs) than anticipated, including a novel strong influence on dendritic cells (DCs).
متن کاملPhase I trial of an interleukin-2 (IL-2) fusion toxin (DAB486IL-2) in hematologic malignancies expressing the IL-2 receptor.
DAB486IL-2 is a recombinant fusion toxin in which the native receptor binding domain of diphtheria toxin has been replaced with human interleukin-2 (IL-2). It selectively binds and intoxicates only cells that bear the high-affinity receptor for IL-2. In the first clinical trial of a genetically engineered ligand fusion-toxin, we have treated 18 patients with chemotherapy-resistant IL-2 receptor...
متن کاملClearance of acute myeloid leukemia by haploidentical natural killer cells is improved using IL-2 diphtheria toxin fusion protein.
Haploidentical natural killer (NK) cell infusions can induce remissions in some patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) but regulatory T-cell (Treg) suppression may reduce efficacy. We treated 57 refractory AML patients with lymphodepleting cyclophosphamide and fludarabine followed by NK cell infusion and interleukin (IL)-2 administration. In 42 patients, donor NK cell expansion was detected...
متن کاملSub-Emetic Toxicity of Bacillus cereus Toxin Cereulide on Cultured Human Enterocyte-Like Caco-2 Cells
Cereulide (CER) intoxication occurs at relatively high doses of 8 µg/kg body weight. Recent research demonstrated a wide prevalence of low concentrations of CER in rice and pasta dishes. However, the impact of exposure to low doses of CER has not been studied before. In this research, we investigated the effect of low concentrations of CER on the behavior of intestinal cells using the Caco-2 ce...
متن کاملBacterial Overexpression of the Human Interleukin-2 in Insoluble Form via the pET Trx Fusion System
Selection of a system for successful recombinant protein production is important. The aim of this study wasto produce high levels of human interleukin-2 (hIL-2) in soluble form. To this end, the pET32a vector inEscherichia coli BL21 (DE3) was used as an expression system, since it was previously used for the productionof mouse IL-2 in soluble form. The results indicated that c...
