- the present invention relates generally to the fields of medicine and molecular and cellular biology and more specifically to the field of therapeutic antigens and antigen related products.
- the present invention relates to the field of treating disorders, such as cancer, bacterial infection, parasitic infection, viral infection, autoimmune disorders, rheumatoid arthritis, allergy and organ transplant rejection.
- tumor-specific antigens The insufficient immune response of tumor cells may be due to low expression of foreign ("tumor-specific") antigens.
- tumor-specific antigens identification of tumor-specific antigens has been a major focus of tumor immunologists for decades.
- Tumor cells also produce and secrete proteins which directly affect the host immune response to the tumor, either positively or negatively.
- a tumor-associated tumor-associated tumor-associated tumor-associated tumor-associated tumor-associated tumor-associated tumor-associated tumor-associated tumor-associated tumor-associated tumor-associated tumor-associated tumor-associated tumor-associated tumor-associated tumor-associated tumor-associated tumor-associated tumor-associated tumor-associated tumor-associated tumor-associated tumor-associated tumor-associated tumor-associated tumor-associated tumor-associated tumor cells also produce and secrete proteins which directly affect the host immune response to the tumor, either positively or negatively.
- IR-95 15 protein produced by 80% of breast cancers but not by normal breast tissue. Subsequent studies detected this protein, designated IR-95, in the sera of normal as well as tumor-bearing patients (Iacobelli et al., Breast Cancer Research and Treatment 11:19-30, 1993) .
- IR-95 is a secreted glycoprotein that was originally identified in the culture supernatant of human breast cancer cells 1 and by cDNA cloning was identified as a member of the scavenger receptor cysteine-rich domain family of proteins 2,3 . Although IR-95 is found in the serum
- Mac-2-BP was shown to inhibit the proli ⁇ ferative response of peripheral blood mononuclear cells stimulated with the T-cell mitogen PHA, and this inhibi ⁇ tion was attributed to competitive binding and neutraliza ⁇ tion of the mitogen, rather than to a direct effect of Mac-2-BP on the responding cell population.
- IR-95 has been shown to enhance the in vi tro genera ⁇ tion of cytotoxic effector cells (NK and LAK) from PBMC of apparently healthy donors, and to enhance IL-2 production by peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) stimulated with suboptimal doses of Concanavalin A (Ullrich et al. , J. Biol . Chem. 269:18401-18407, 1994), incorporated herein by reference in its entirety, including any drawings.
- PBMC peripheral blood mononuclear cells
- T-cell activation an important step in many immune responses, requires crosslinking of the T-cell receptor:CD3 complex by HLA-peptide complexes on the surface of antigen presenting cells.
- HLA-peptide complexes presenta ⁇ tion of HLA-peptide complexes in the absence of certain costimulatory signals results in T-cell anergy rather than activation (Johnson and Jenkins, Jini ⁇ unologic Res . 12:48- 64, 1993) .
- B7 the ligand for the T-cell molecule CD28
- CD28 the ligand for the T-cell molecule CD28
- Antigen presentation by B7-negative APC results in T-cell anergy, while the introduction of B7 into these deficient APC restores their ability to activate T-cells following antigen presentation (Gimmi et al. , Proc. Natl . Acad. Sci . 90:6586-90, 1993) .
- Soluble mediators are also important costimulatory signals in T-cell activation.
- IL-1 supports the antigen-driven activation of T-cells (Rotteveel et al., Cellular Immunol . 138:245-50, 1991) , and the production of lymphokines such as IL-9 (Schmitt et al. , J. Immunol . 147:3848-54, 1991) .
- IL-6 exhibits a number of effects on T-cell activation, including stimulation of thymocyte proliferation, enhancement of cytotoxic T-cell differentiation in mixed lymphocyte reactions, and T-cell activation in conjunction with TCR crosslinking or mitogen stimulation (See Van Snick, Ann . Rev. Immunol .
- tumor cells are non-immuno ⁇ genic and lethal when implanted into mice.
- B7-negative tumor cells are non-immuno ⁇ genic and lethal when implanted into mice.
- the tumor cells become immunogenic, eliciting an immune response that recognizes not only the B7-positive immunogenic tumor, but also the B7-negative nonimmunogenic parental tumor (Baskar et al. , Proc . Natl . Acad. Sci . USA 90:5687-5690, 1993; Fenton et al., AACR Symposium on Molecular Approaches to Cancer Immunotherapy. Page B-l, 1993) .

- IL-4 (Yu et al. , Cancer Res . 53:3125-8, 1993; Hunt et al., J. Immuno therapy 14:314-21, 1993)
- GM-CSF (Dranoff et al., Proc. Natl . Acad. Sci .
- cytokines when administered systemically or locally, can lead to successful immune recognition of the tumor, and mobilization of an effective immune response (Sivanandham et al. , Annals of Plastic Surgery 28:114-118, 1992; Dipierro et al. , Medical Oncology and Pharmaco- therapy 10:53-59, 1993) .
- Recent advances in gene transfer technology have allowed the insertion of genes encoding the cytokines of interest into non-immunogenic tumor cells.
- Such cytokine-engineered tumor cells elicit a strong tumor-specific immune response that is capable of recognizing and eradicating the parental, non-immunogenic tumor cells (Dranoff et al., Proc. Natl . Acad. Sci . USA 90:3539-43, 1993; Patel et al. , J. Immunotherapy 14:310-3, 1993; Bubenik, Intl J. Oncology 2 :1049-1052, 1993).
- the present invention relates to therapeutic uses of IR-95, for example its use in reducing the volume of a tumor or in decreasing the growth rate of cells in the tumor, preferably in vivo .

- the present invention provides therapeutic methods relating to IR-95.
- Methods for isolating and purifying the antigen, for producing monoclonal or polyclonal antibodies, for sequencing the protein, for producing probes, and methods for modifying and expressing the disclosed nucleotide and amino acid sequences are described in PCT Application Publication WO 93/16181, published August 19, 1993.
- the purified protein and antibodies thereto as well as its genetic sequences are useful in therapeutic methods.
- IR-95 and antagonists thereof are useful as therapeutic agents for cancer, including breast, ovarian and other malignancies, viral infection, including HIV, bacterial infection, parasitic infection, inflamma ⁇ tion, autoimmune disease, aging, and different physio- pathological conditions which are characterized by a variable degree of immune deficit associated with immune activation or elevated serum IR-95 levels.
- viral infection including HIV, bacterial infection, parasitic infection, inflamma ⁇ tion, autoimmune disease, aging, and different physio- pathological conditions which are characterized by a variable degree of immune deficit associated with immune activation or elevated serum IR-95 levels.
- PBMC peripheral blood mononuclear cells
- IL-1 and IL-6 production were induced by IR-95 alone, indicating that the actual target of activation was the accessory cell, not the T-cell.
- T-cells enriched by passage over nylon wool failed to respond to ConA alone or in combination with IR-95, while CD14- enriched cells produced IL-1 and IL-6 when stimulated with IR-95 alone, regardless of the presence or absence of the T-cell mitogen ConA.
- CD14+ accessory cells which produce IL-1 and IL-6 in response to IR-95, and that IR-95 acts upon accessory cells independently of ConA.
- IR-95 was also found to increase the expression on monocytes of ICAM-1, an important adhesion molecule involved in costimulation of T-cells.
- IR-95 alone i.e. , without ConA
- IL-1 and IL-6 were sufficient to induce production of IL-1 and IL-6 by unfractionated PBMC or by CD14-enriched PBMC.
- expression of ICAM-1 was increased on a human monocytic cell line cultured with purified IR-95 in the absence of any other stimulus. This IR-95-induced upregulation of ICAM-1 expression was accompanied by an increased accessory function of the monocytes, as deter- mined by their ability to support ConA-induced activation of peripheral blood T-cells.
- IR-95 thus activates accessory cells, resulting in the secretion of cytokines, activation of helper T-cells and effector cells such as NK and LAK, and expression of adhesion molecules, which in turn act as costimulatory signals for T-cell activation.
- the activated T-cells then produce cytokines such as IL-2, which lead to a more vigorous cell-mediated immune response to tumor cells and virus-infected cells.
- IR-95 may be used as an immunotherapeutic reagent for diseases such as cancer and viral infection, due to its ability to enhance cell- mediated immune responses.
- IR-95 ConA-induced T-cell activation may be due to its ability to directly activate accessory cell secretion of IL-1 and IL-6, both of which are involved in T-cell activation. Therefore, we examined the effect of IR-95 on adhesion molecule expression and accessory function of a human monocytic cell line, THP-1. In agreement with the experiments with CD14+ PBMC, we found that IR-95 had a direct positive effect on THP-1 cells, evidenced as an increase in ICAM-1 expression following an overnight culture with IR-95.
- IR-95 upregulate ICAM-1 expression did not only affect the ability of the THP-1 cells to support T- cell activation: IR-95-pulsed THP-1 cells caused a 2-fold increase in T-cell proliferation compared to non-pulsed cells.
- the activated T-cells may then produce lymphokines (in addition to IL-2) which act in a feedback loop to increase accessory cell activation and cytokine secretion; this mechanism could explain why in some experiments, the addition of both IR-95 and ConA appeared to synergistic- ally increase the levels of cytokines produced.
- IR-95 appears to be a soluble costimulatory molecule, which acts at the level of the accessory cell, indirectly supporting T-cell activation. Secretion of IR-95 by tumor cells or normal cells (Ullrich et al. , J. Biol . Chem. 269:18401-18407, 1994) presumably triggers the first step in a cascade which ultimately results in enhanced cell- mediated immunity. While the current results indicate that IR-95 induces cytokine production by accessory cells, the effect of IR-95 on expression of adhesion molecules may be just as important in ultimate T-cell activation. Indeed, we present evidence that incubation with IR-95 increases expression of ICAM-1 (also known as CD54) on a human monocytic cell line, concomitant with an increase in the ability of the THP-1 cells to support T-cell activation.
- ICAM-1 also known as CD54
- IR- 95 is capable of altering tumor cell growth in vivo .
- Clones which express high amounts of human IR-95 were, developed from murine 6378 cells (derived from mouse mammary gland carcinoma) and used for tumor growth experi ⁇ ments.
- female nude mice, 4 to 5 weeks old were divided into 4 groups of 4 individuals.
- Each individual in groups 1, 2 and 3 was subcutaneously implanted with a clone of murine 6378 cells which produced human IR-95 (2 x IO 6 cells / mouse) .
- the animals in group 4 were implanted with 6378 cells which do not produce human IR-95.
- the tumor volume in each animal was measured twice a week and the tumor growth curve determined.
- mice implanted with the 6378 cells expressing human IR-95 showed significantly slower tumor growth than mice implanted with control cells. Twenty-three days post implantation, the tumor volume in mice implanted with the cells expressing IR-95 was reduced by 40% (group 1) , and 70% (group 2, 3) as compared to the control group.
- IR-95-encoding cDNA has now been cloned four times. While we 2 and Koths et al. 3 identified human IR-95 as a tumor- associated secreted antigen or the Mac-2-BP, respectively, the putative mouse homologue of IR-95 was independently isolated as either cyclophilin C-associated protein (CyCAP) 16 or murine adherent macrophage (MAMA) protein 17 . The common denominator of the four independent investiga ⁇ tions that converged on the discovery of the IR-95 (IR-95/ Mac-2-BP/CyCAP/MAMA) protein appears to be a function in the body's immune surveillance and defense against cancer cells and likely other pathogenic agents.

- IR-95 or its genetic sequences will also be useful in gene therapy (reviewed in Miller, Nature 357:455-460, (1992) . Miller states that advances have resulted in practical approaches to human gene therapy that have demonstrated positive initial results.
- An in vivo model of gene therapy for human severe combined immunodeficiency is described in Ferrari, et al., Science 251:1363-1366,
- an expression vector containing the IR-95 coding sequence is inserted into cells, the cells are grown in vi tro and then infused in large numbers into patients.
- a DNA segment containing a promoter of choice (for example a strong promoter) is transferred into cells containing an endogenous IR-95 in such a manner that the promoter segment enhances expression of the endogenous IR- 95 gene (for example, the promoter segment is transferred to the cell such that it becomes directly linked to the endogenous IR-95 gene) .
- IR-95 to induce cytokine production and adhesion molecule expression by lymphocytes makes it useful for gene therapy of tumors.
- Tumor cells which do not express IR-95 may be engineered to do so, thereby at least partially restoring the immunogenicity of the tumor cells.
- Local production of IR-95 at the site of the tumor could lead to activation of infiltrating monocytes and macrophages.
- Increased secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1 and IL-6 could result in a greater degree of infiltrating, activated Th cells and effector cells (CTL, NK/LAK) .
- Increased expression of adhesion molecules by accessory cells could lead to more vigorous T-cell activation in si tu .
- the engineered expres ⁇ sion of IR-95 in non-expressing tumor cell lines inhibits the ability of the cells to grow as xenografts in athymic mice.

- Target cell populations e.g. haematopoietic, muscle, or immune cells
- an abnormal immune response leading to a condition may be decreased, inhi ⁇ bited, or reversed.
- Deletion or missense mutants of IR- 95, that retain the ability to interact with other compo ⁇ nents of the immune system but cannot participate in normal immune response function may be used to inhibit an abnormal, deleterious immune response.
- Expression vectors derived from viruses such as retroviruses, vaccinia virus, adenovirus, adeno-associated virus, herpes viruses, several RNA viruses, or bovine papilloma virus, may be used for delivery of nucleotide sequences (e.g.. cDNA) encoding recombinant IR-95 protein into the targeted cell population (e.g.. tumor cells) .

These methods include: transfection, wherein DNA is precipitated with CaP0 4 and taken into cells by pinocytosis (Chen C. and Okayama H, Mol. Cell Biol. 7:2745-52 (1987)); electroporation, wherein cells are exposed to large voltage pulses to introduce holes into the membrane (Chu G.
- adenovirus proteins are capable of destabilizing endosomes and enhancing the uptake of DNA into cells.

- gene transfer means the process of introducing a foreign nucleic acid molecule into a cell. Gene transfer is commonly performed to enable the expres ⁇ sion of a particular product encoded by the gene.
- the product may include a protein, polypeptide, anti-sense DNA or RNA, or enzymatically active RNA.
- Gene transfer can be performed in cultured cells or by direct administration into animals. Generally gene transfer involves the process of nucleic acid contact with a target cell by non ⁇ specific or receptor mediated interactions, uptake of nucleic acid into the cell through the membrane or by endocytosis, and release of nucleic acid into the cyto ⁇ plasm from the plasma membrane or endosome. Expression may require, in addition, movement of the nucleic acid into the nucleus of the cell and binding to appropriate nuclear factors for transcription.

- antisense or ribozyme approaches may be used to regulate an immune response. Included in the scope of the invention are oligoribonucleotides, including anti- sense RNA and DNA molecules and ribozymes that function to inhibit translation of IR-95. Anti-sense RNA and DNA molecules act to directly block the translation of mRNA by binding to targeted mRNA and preventing protein translation. With respect to antisense DNA, oligodeoxyribonucleotides derived from the translation initiation site, e.g. , between -10 and +10 regions of the relevant nucleotide sequence, are preferred.
- Ribozymes are enzymatic RNA molecules capable of catalyzing the specific cleavage of RNA.
- the mechanism of ribozyme action involves sequence specific interaction of the ribozyme molecule to complementary target RNA, fol ⁇ lowed by a endonucleolytic cleavage.
- engineered hammerhead or other motif ribozyme molecules that specifically and efficiently catalyze endonucleolytic cleavage of RNA sequences encod- ing protein complex components.
- ribozyme cleavage sites within any potential RNA target are initially identified by scanning the target molecule for ribozyme cleavage sites which include the following sequences, GUA, GUU and GUC. Once identified, short RNA sequences of between 15 and 20 ribonucleotides corresponding to the region of the target gene containing the cleavage site may be evaluated for predicted struc ⁇ tural features, such as secondary structure, that may render the oligonucleotide sequence unsuitable. The suitability of candidate targets may also be evaluated by testing their accessibility to hybridization with comple ⁇ mentary oligonucleotides, using ribonuclease protection assays. See, Draper PCT WO 93/23569.
- RNA molecules may be generated by in vi tro and in vivo transcription of DNA sequences encoding the antisense RNA molecule.
- DNA sequences may be incor ⁇ porated into a wide variety of vectors which incorporate suitable RNA polymerase promoters such as the T7 or SP6 polymerase promoters.

- a therapeutically effective dose refers to that amount of the compound that results in amelioration of symptoms or a prolongation of survival in a patient.
- Toxicity and therapeutic efficacy of such compounds can be determined by standard pharmaceutical procedures in cell cultures or experimental animals, e.g. , for determin- ing the LD 50 (the dose lethal to 50% of the population) and the ED 50 (the dose therapeutically effective in 50% of the population) .
- the dose ratio between toxic and therapeutic effects is the therapeutic index and it can be expressed as the ratio LD 50 /ED 50 .
- Compounds which exhibit large therapeutic indices are preferred.
- the data obtained from these cell culture assays and animal studies can be used in formulating a range of dosage for use in human.
- the dosage of such compounds lies preferably within a range of circulating concentrations that include the ED 50 with little or no toxicity. The dosage may vary within this range depending upon the dosage form employed and the route of administration utilized.
- the therapeutically effective dose can be estimated ini- tially from cell culture assays.

- Such informa ⁇ tion can be used to more accurately determine useful doses in humans.
- Levels in plasma may be measured, for example, by HPLC.
- the exact formulation, route of administration and dosage can be chosen by the individual physician in view of the patient's condition. (See e.g. Fingl et al., in The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics, 1975, Ch. 1 p. 1) . It should be noted that the attending physician would know how to and when to terminate, interrupt, or adjust administration due to toxicity, or to organ dys ⁇ functions. Conversely, the attending physician would also know to adjust treatment to higher levels if the clinical response were not adequate (precluding toxicity) .
- the magnitude of an administrated dose in the management of the oncogenic disorder of interest will vary with the severity of the condition to be treated and to the route of administration. The severity of the condition may, for example, be evaluated, in part, by standard prognostic evaluation methods. Further, the dose and perhaps dose frequency, will also vary according to the age, body weight, and response of the individual patient.

- retroviral vectors Two major limitations to the use of retroviral vectors are the restricted host-cell range and the inability to obtain high-titer virus. These limitations have been overcome by Burns et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 90: 8033-8037, 1993. They replaced the retroviral envelope glycoprotein with the G glycoprotein of vesicular stomatitis virus. Such vectors can be produced in high titer (>10 9 colony-forming units/ml) and can infect diverse cell types. Partial hepatectomy may not be necessary for liver expression using such vectors.
- the nucleic acid sequence encoding IR-95 can be delivered by using this or a similarly designed vector in vivo by intravenous administration. Another viral vector delivery system that will be used is the adenovirus system. The IR-95 nucleic acid sequence can be used to replace the El region of the adenovirus using the method described by Graham and Prevec
- IR-95 nucleic acid sequence/adenovirus can be injected intravenously, intramuscularly, intraportally or intra-arterially (hepatic artery) .
- adenovirus- mediated expression vectors generally direct the transient expression of the therapeutic gene. Improvements and refinements in vector structure and design may lead to diminished immunogenicity and allow the vector to be administered repeatedly. Other modifications may result in the ability of the IR-95 nucleic acid sequence to be integrated in the host chromosomes allowing for stable expression.
- viral vector delivery systems as are known in the art will also be used for the targeted transfer of the IR-95 nucleic acid sequence.
- IR-95 By “functional derivative” is meant a “chemical derivative,” “fragment,” “variant,” “chimera,” or “hybrid” of IR-95, which terms are defined below.
- a functional derivative retains at least a portion of the function of the protein, for example reactivity with an antibody spe ⁇ cific for IR-95, which permits its utility in accordance with the present invention.
- a "chemical derivative" of IR-95 contains additional chemical moieties not normally a part of the protein. Covalent modifications of the protein or peptides are included within the scope of this invention. Such modifi ⁇ cations may be introduced into the molecule by reacting targeted amino acid residues of the peptide with an organic derivatizing agent that is capable of reacting with selected side chains or terminal residues, as described below.
- Cysteinyl residues most commonly are reacted with alpha-haloacetates (and corresponding amines) , such as chloroacetic acid or chloroacetamide, to give carboxy- methyl or carboxyamidomethyl derivatives. Cysteinyl residues also are derivatized by reaction with bromotri- fluoroacetone, chloroacetyl phosphate, N-alkylmaleimides, 3-nitro-2-pyridyl disulfide, methyl 2-pyridyl disulfide, p-chloromercuribenzoate, 2-chloromercuri-4-nitrophenol, or chloro-7-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-l,3-diazole.
- Histidyl residues are derivatized by reaction with diethylprocarbonate at pH 5.5-7.0 because this agent is relatively specific for the histidyl side chain.
- Para- bromophenacyl bromide also is useful; the reaction is preferably performed in 0.1 M sodium cacodylate at pH 6.0.
- Lysinyl and amino terminal residues are reacted with succinic or other carboxylic acid anhydrides. Deriva- tization with these agents has the effect or reversing the charge of the lysinyl residues.
- Other suitable reagents for derivatizing primary amine containing residues include imidoesters such as methyl picolinimidate; pyridoxal phosphate; pyridoxal; chloroborohydride; trinitro- benzenesulfonic acid; O-methylisourea; 2,4 pentanedione; and transaminase-catalyzed reaction with glyoxylate.
- Arginyl residues are modified by reaction with one or several conventional reagents, among them phenylglyoxal, 2,3-butanedione, 1,2-cyclohexanedione, and ninhydrin. Derivatization of arginine residues requires that the reaction be performed in alkaline conditions because of the high pK a of the guanidine functional group. Further- more, these reagents may react with the groups of lysine as well as the arginine alpha-amino group.
- Tyrosyl residues are well-known targets of modifi ⁇ cation for introduction of spectral labels by reaction with aromatic diazonium compounds or tetranitromethane. Most commonly, N-acetylimidizol and tetranitromethane are used to form O-acetyl tyrosyl species and 3-nitro derivatives, respectively.
- Carboxyl side groups are selectively modified by reaction carbodiimide (R' -N-C-N- R' ) such as l-cyclohexyl-3- (2-morpholinyl(4-ethyl) carbo ⁇ diimide or l-ethyl-3- (4-azonia-4,4-dimethylpentyl) carbo ⁇ diimide.
- carbodiimide R' -N-C-N- R'
- aspartyl and glutamyl residue are converted to asparaginyl and glutaminyl residues by reaction with ammonium ions.
- Glutaminyl and asparaginyl residues are frequently deamidated to the corresponding glutamyl and aspartyl residues.
- these residues are deamidated under mildly acidic conditions. Either form of these residues falls within the scope of this invention.
- Derivatization with bifunctional agents is useful, for example, for cross-linking IR-95 to a water-insoluble support matrix or to other macromolecular carriers.
- cross-linking agents include, for example, 1, 1-bis (diazoacetyl) -2-phenylethane, glutaraldehyde, N-hydroxysuccinimide esters, for example, esters with 4-azidosalicylic acid, homobifunctional imidoesters, including disuccinimidyl esters such as 3,3' -dithiobis- (succinimidylpropionate) , and bifunctional maleimides such as bis-N-maleimido-1,8-octane.
- Derivatizing agents such as methyl-3- [p-azidophenyl) dithiolpropioimidate yield photoactivatable intermediates that are capable of forming crosslinks in the presence of light.
- reactive water-insoluble matrices such as cyanogen bro ⁇ mide-activated carbohydrates and the reactive substrates described in U.S. Patent Nos. 3,969,287; 3,691,016; 4,195,128; 4,247,642; 4,229,537; and 4,330,440 are employed for protein immobilization.
- Such derivatized moieties may improve the stability, solubility, absorption, biological half life, and the like.
- the moieties may alternatively eliminate or attenuate any undesirable side effect of IR-95 and the like.
- Moieties capable of mediating such effects are disclosed, for example, in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 18th ed. , Mack Publishing Co., Easton, PA (1990) .
- fragment is used to indicate a polypeptide derived from the amino acid sequence of the protein IR-95 having a length less than the full-length polypeptide from which it has been derived.
- a fragment may, for example, be produced by proteolytic cleavage of the full- length protein.
- the fragment is obtained recombinantly by appropriately modifying the DNA sequence encoding the proteins to delete one or more amino acids at one or more sites of the C-terminus, N-terminus, and/or within the native sequence.
- Fragments of a protein when present in an immune complex resembling a naturally occur ⁇ ring immune complex, are useful for screening for com ⁇ pounds that act to modulate immune responses, as described below.
- fragments when present in a complex may retain one or more characterizing portions of the native complex. Examples of such retained characteristics include: substrate specificity; inter ⁇ action with other molecules in the intact cell; regulatory functions; or binding with an antibody specific for the native complex, or an epitope thereof.
- Another functional derivative intended to be within the scope of the present invention is a IR-95 comprising at least one "variant" polypeptide which either lack one or more amino acids or contain additional or substituted amino acids relative to the native polypeptide.
- the variant may be derived from a naturally occurring IR-95 by appropriately modifying the protein DNA coding sequence to add, remove, and/or to modify codons for one or more amino acids at one or more sites of the C-terminus, N-terminus, and/or within the native sequence. It is understood that such variants having added, substituted and/or additional amino acids retain one or more characterizing portions of the native IR-95, as described above.
- a functional derivative of IR-95 comprising proteins with deleted, inserted and/or substituted amino acid resi- dues may be prepared using standard techniques well-known to those of ordinary skill in the art.
- the modified components of the functional derivatives may be produced using site-directed mutagenesis techniques (as exemplified by Adelman et al., 1983, DNA 2:183) wherein nucleotides in the DNA coding the sequence are modified such that a modified coding sequence is modified, and thereafter expressing this recombinant DNA in a prokary- otic or eukaryotic host cell, using techniques such as those described above.
- IR-95 with amino acid deletions, insertions and/ or substitutions may be conveniently prepared by direct chemical synthesis, using methods well-known in the art.
- the functional derivatives of IR-95 typically exhibit the same qualitative biological activity as the native IR-95. Examples
- RPMI medium was supplemented with 10% heat- inactivated fetal calf serum and glutamine. This formu ⁇ lation will be abbreviated as RPMI+FCS.
- Minimal essential medium was supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated fetal calf serum and glutamine. This formulation will be abbreviated as MEM+FCS.

- U373 is a human glioblastoma cell line which produces natural IR-95; these cells were passaged twice weekly in MEM+FCS supple ⁇ mented with non-essential amino acids and sodium pyruvate.
- BT2A4 cells were derived from NIH.3T3 cells by transfec ⁇ tion with an expression vector containing the full length cDNA encoding human IR-95, followed by methotrexate ampli ⁇ fication to select a clone which expressed high levels of recombinant IR-95 (Ullrich et al. , J. Biol . Chem. 269:18401-18407, 1994) .
- THP-1 is a human monocytic leukemia cell line, which was passaged twice weekly in RPMI+FCS. All cell lines were obtained from the American Type Culture Collection.
- BT2A4 cells were seeded into cell factories in DMEM + 5% FCS + glutamine. When the cells reached confluence, the FCS concentration was gradually reduced to 0.5%.
- Conditioned medium (CM) was collected every two days, filter- sterilized, and stored at 4°C. CM was concentrated approximately 20-fold with a 20K cut-off cross filtration unit (Sartorius) , followed by precipitation with 45% saturated ammonium sulfate.
- ammonium sulfate cut was passed over an affinity column consisting of a purified monoclonal antibody specific for human IR-95 (Iacobelli et al., Breast Cancer Research and Treatment 11:19-30, 1993; Ullrich et al. , J. Biol . Chem. 269:18401-18407, 1994) covalently coupled to Tresyl-activated agarose (Schleicher & Schuell) . After extensive washing with PBS to remove non-bound material, the bound material was eluted with IM ethanolamine (prep 1) or 3M MgCl 2 (prep 2) .
- prep 1 IM ethanolamine
- prep 2 3M MgCl 2
- Peripheral blood mononuclear cells Blood was obtained from apparently healthy donors following informed consent. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were isolated from the buffy coats by density gradient centrifugation through Histopaque (Sigma) . PBMC were washed extensively with RPMI+FCS. Cells were adjusted to the appropriate concentration and either frozen in 90% FCS + 10% DMSO, or used fresh. Frozen cells were thawed rapidly and washed twice before use. Viability was determined by trypan blue exclusion. Recovery of viable cells from liquid nitrogen storage generally ranged from 50% to 95% of input cells.
- T-cell enrichment from PBMC Nylon wool-enriched T- cells were prepared essentially as described (Hathcock, 3.2.1 through 3.2.4 in Current Protocols in Immunology, Coligan et al. , eds. , Wiley Interscience (New York 1994)) . Briefly, PBMC were resuspended in RPMI + 20% FCS and applied to nylon wool columns which had been washed and equilibrated in the same medium. The columns were incu ⁇ bated at 37°C for one hour. Non-adherent (T-cell- enriched) cells were eluted by slowly washing the columns with warm RPMI + 20% FCS.
- PBMC enriched for CD3+ and CD14+ cells using the MiniMACS Separation System (Miltenyi Biotec) , according to the manufacturer's instructions. Briefly, ali uots of 10 7 PBMC were stained with phycoerythrin-conjugated monoclonal antibodies to CD3 or CD14 (Leinco Technologies) for 15 minutes on ice.
- ConA costimulation assay PBMC (or enriched fractions thereof) were resuspended in RPMI+FCS, and plated in 24- well plates (4xl0 6 /well unfractionated PBMC, an equivalent cell dose of fractionated PBMC) , or in 96-well flat-bottom plates (2xlO s /well PBMC) .
- RPMI+FCS was added to control wells, and various combinations of ConA (Sigma catalog # C-5275) and IR-95 diluted in RPMI+FCS were added to experi ⁇ mental wells, as indicated in the figure legends. Cultures were incubated at 37°C for 48 hours unless otherwise noted. Supernatants were collected from indi ⁇ vidual wells, clarified by centrifugation, and frozen at -80°C until assayed for cytokine content.
- Cytokine bioassays Samples and recombinant cytokine controls were serially diluted in 96-well flat bottom plates in a volume of 50 ⁇ l/well. The appropriate indi ⁇ cator cells were then added in 50 ⁇ l/well: HT-2, 10 /well for IL-2; 7TD1, 2xl0 3 /well for IL-6; A375.S2, 10 /well for
- THP-1 cells a human monocytic cell line that possesses accessory function, were used to examine the effect of IR-95 on expression of adhesion molecules.
- Cells were plated in 24-well plates at 4xl0 5 /well, in the presence or absence of purified IR-95 at various doses. Following an overnight incubation at 37°C, the cells were harvested and washed three times prior to staining with fluorochrome- labelled monoclonal antibodies to human cell surface antigens.
- THP-1 cells were cultured overnight with or without IR-95, then harvested and washed. The cells were fixed in formalin or treated with mitomycin C prior to being used in a functional assay.
- CD3+ cells were purified from PBMC by magnetic separation, as described above. THP-1 cells ( ⁇ 3xl0 /well) and CD3+ cells
- Example 1 Increased IL-2 secretion by PBMC in response to ConA and IR-95-containing conditioned medium: Effect of IR-95 containing conditioned medium on the PBMC response to ConA was studied.
- Conditioned media were collected from U373 (a human glioblastoma which naturally produces IR-95) , BT2A4 (IR-95-negative parental cells) , and NIH.3T3 cultures three days after passage. The CM were centrifuged and passed through 0.2 ⁇ M filters to remove cell debris.
- PBMC Freshly-isolated PBMC (2xl0 6 /well in 24-well plates in a final volume of 1.0 ml) were cul ⁇ tured with doses of ConA up to 2.5 ⁇ g/ml, with or without CM (25% v/v final concentration) . After 48 hours, super ⁇ natants were harvested and assayed for IL-2 activity. IL-2 secretion was minimal at the doses of ConA used. However, the addition of CM from BT2A4 or U373 cells enhanced IL-2 secretion 2- to 5-fold in response to these suboptimal doses of the T-cell mitogen, while CM from the non-producing NIH.3T3 cells had no effect. CM alone did not induce IL-2 production by PBMC, suggesting that the increased IL-2 levels seen in the ConA + CM wells were due to a costimulation effect.
- Example 2 Effect of purified recombinant IR-95 on lymphokine production by PBMC: The results described herein demonstrated that IR-95- containing CM could augment the PBMC response to ConA, but it was not clear whether this effect was due to IR-95 itself or some other component of CM. Therefore, recombi ⁇ nant IR-95 affinity-purified from BT2A4 CM was assayed in a similar fashion and the effect of purified IR-95 on lymphokine secretion by human PBMC was studied.
- PBMC peripheral blood mononuclear cells
- PBMC peripheral blood mononuclear cells
- AP affinity-purified
- GP gel- purified
- supernatants were harvested and assayed for IL-1 and IL-6.
- IL-1 and IL-6 were produced by the ConA-stimulated PBMC, and the levels of each cytokine were higher in cultures which had been costimulated with ConA and IR-95.
- Example 3 Response of nylon wool-enriched T-cells to costimulation with ConA and IR-95:
- IR-95 increased production of the accessory cell-derived cyto ⁇ kines IL-1 and IL-6, and of the T-cell-derived cytokine IL-2. Since these experiments were conducted with unfractionated PBMC populations, it was not possible to determine which cell type was the direct target of IR-95. Therefore, PBMC were passed over nylon wool columns to deplete B-cells, macrophages, and other accessory cells and the response of nylon wool-enriched T-cells to costimulation with ConA and IR-95 was studied. The nonad- herent cells, enriched for T-cells and NK cells, were then examined in the ConA costimulation assay described above; unfractionated PBMC were assayed in parallel.
- Cultures consisted of 2xl0 6 unfractionated PBMC/well, or the nylon wool-nonadherent cells collected from an equivalent number of PBMC. One-half of the cells were then passed over nylon wool columns to deplete B-cells and accessory cells. The nonadherent cells were harvested, washed, and resus- pend to the original volume. Nylon wool-nonadherent cells or unfractionated cells were plated along with ConA IR-95 as indicated. ConA was added at 2.5 ⁇ g/ml, and IR-95 was added at 2 and 10 ⁇ g/ml. Supernatants were collected after 48 hours and assayed for cytokine bioactivity.
- the T-cell-enriched population did not produce IL-2 in response to ConA, as expected, since ConA is an acces ⁇ sory cell-dependent mitogen.
- ConA is an acces ⁇ sory cell-dependent mitogen.
- the addition of IR-95 to the T-cell population did not restore the ability of these cells to make IL-2 in response to mitogenic stimulation.
- the unfractionated PBMC did produce IL-2 when stimulated with ConA, and the level of IL-2 produced was higher when IR-95 was added to the cultures.
- IL-6 was not produced by the enriched T-cell popula ⁇ tion, except in wells which contained both ConA and the highest dose of IR-95; this may represent contaminating accessory cells in the nylon wool nonadherent population, or IL-6 production by T-cells.
- the unfrac ⁇ tionated PBMC produced IL-6 in the absence of ConA, and this response was increased by the addition of low doses of IR-95.
- the ConA-independent production of IL-6 in response to IR-95 had been observed before, as described above.
- Example 4 Production of IL-6 by CD14-enriched cells stimulated with IR-95 alone: IL-1 and IL-6 production by fractionated PBMC stimu ⁇ lated with IR-95 was studied.
- PBMC were enriched for CD3+ and CD14+ cells by immunomagnetic sorting.
- CD14-enriched fractions and unseparated PBMC were cultured with ConA + IR-95 for 48 hours. Supernatants were assayed for IL-1 and IL-6 bioactivity.
- CD3-enriched fractions did not produce detectable levels of either IL-1 or IL-6.
- T-cells The failure of nylon wool-enriched T-cells to respond to IR-95, and the ability of PBMC to produce IL-1 and IL-6 in response to IR-95 alone, suggested that the immediate target of IR-95 activity was accessory cells rather than T-cells.
- PBMC were enriched for cells expressing CD3 (T-cells) and CD14 (monocytes/ macrophages) . These enriched fractions, as well as unseparated PBMC, were cultured with ConA + IR-95 for 48 hours, and supernatants were assayed for IL-1 and IL-6.
- accessory cells In addition to secreting soluble cytokines such as IL-1 and IL-6, accessory cells also provide costimulatory signals to T-cells via adhesion molecules such as ICAM-1.
- adhesion molecules such as ICAM-1.
- ICAM-1 expression and accessory function of THP-1 cells pulsed with IR-95 was studied. THP-1 cells were cultured with and without involved IR-95 overnight, then stained with fluorochrome-labelled antibodies to various cell surface molecules. Cells were then harvested, washed, and analyzed for ICAM-1 expression by flow cytometry, and for accessory function by their ability to restore ConA responsiveness to purified CD3+ cells.
- a fluorescence histogram of ICAM-1 expression was obtained, detected by staining the cells with PE-labelled anti-CD54 (Becton Dickinson) , followed by analysis on a BD FACScan using LYSIS II software.
- 3 H-thymidine incorporation by ConA- stimulated CD3+ cells cocultured for 48 hours with THP-1 cells that had been previously pulsed overnight with and without IR-95 was measured.
- ICAM-1 appeared to be influenced by IR-95.
- ICAM-1 expression was increased up to 4-fold in 24 hours, while other important adhesion molecules, including B7 and LFA- 1, were not affected.
- THP-1 cells Due to the importance of ICAM-1 and other adhesion molecules in T-cell costimulation, we investigated whether the IR-95-induced upregulation of ICAM-1 expression resulted in a functional change in the THP-1 cells. Following an overnight culture in the presence or absence of IR-95, THP-1 cells were harvested and washed, then cocultured with purified CD3+ PBMC and various doses of ConA for 48 hours. Proliferation of the CD3+ cells was measured as described. THP-1 cells possess endogeneous accessory function, demonstrated by their ability to support ConA-induced T- cell activation, and this function is apparently increased following culture with IR-95.
- Example 6 The effect of IR-95 on cytokine production in peripheral blood lymphocytes:
- IR-95 prepara ⁇ tion PS-1 and preparation Mg-1
- lymphokine secretion by human peripheral blood lymphocytes was studied.
- Peripheral blood lymphocytes were isolated by Ficoll gradient centrifugation of blood obtained from healthy volunteers.
- the PBL (2xl0 6 cells/well in 24 well plates in a final volume of 1 ml) were cultured with various doses of Concanavalin A (ConA, potent T-cell mitogen) , and puri ⁇ fied IR-95, either separately or in combination.
- Concanavalin A ConA, potent T-cell mitogen
- cytokine content Unless otherwise indicated supernatants from the PBL cultures were harvested after 48 hours and stored at -80°C until analyzed for cytokine content.
- the cytokines measured were IL-1, IL-2, and IL-6.
- IL-1 and IL-6 are primarily derived from macrophages and other accessory cells and are vital in achieving full activation of T-cells. 11-2 is produced by activated T-helper cells.
- IL-6 Samples and controls were incubated with the IL-6-dependent cell line 7TD1 for 4 days, then processed as described in the IL-2 assay.
- IL-1 Samples and controls were incubated with IL-1- sensitive cell line A375.52 for 3 days.
- IR-95 preparation PS-1 increased the production of the T-cell cytokine IL-2.
- This response was dose dependent with respect to both ConA and IR-95, suggesting that the mitogen and IR-95 were acting in a synergistic manner to achieve an enhanced T- cell response.
- IL-6 secretion was enhanced in response to IR-95 alone, without the addition of the T-cell mitogen ConA, suggesting that the effect of IR-95 is on accessory cell, and not directly on the T-cell. Production of IL-1 was also enhanced by the addition of IR-95 to the cultures.
- IL-6 in the PBL supernatants.
- ConA at a dose of 1.25 ug/ml does not achieve T-cell acti ⁇ vation as determined by the production of IL-2.
- a significant T-cell activation can be achieved in the presence of 1.25 ug/ml ConA when IR-95 is also present at a dose of 20 ug/ml.
- IR-95 increases the production of IL-1 and IL-6 by human PBL, and acts synergistically with ConA to increase the produc ⁇ tion of IL-2.
- Example 7 The effect of IR-95 on tumor growth in nude mice.
- the human IR-95 cDNA was subcloned into the retro ⁇ viral pLXSN vector (Miller, A.D. and Rosman, G.J., Biotechnique ⁇ 7 , 980-992 (1989) ) .
- the latter plasmid was transfected into the helper virus-free packaging cell line PA 317 by calcium phosphate precipitation (Chen and Okayama, Mol . Cell . Biol . , 7:2745-2752, 1987) .
- supernatants containing amphotropic virus were collected and used to infect GP86 secondary packaging cells in the presence of 8 ug/ml polybrene. Cells were then selected with G418 (1 mg/ml) and clones were isolated.
- mice Female nude mice were divided into 4 groups of 4 individuals. Each individual in groups 1, 2, and 3 was implanted with clones of murine cell line 6378 which express human IR-95 (2 x 10 7 cells subcutaneously / mouse) . The animals in group 4 were implanted with 6378 cells transfected with the control expression vector. The tumor volume in each mouse was measured twice a week and the tumor growth curve determined. Twenty-three days post implantation, the tumor volume in mice implanted with cells expressing IR-95 was reduced by 40% (group 1) , and 70% (groups 2 and 3) as compared to the control.
- Murine 6378 cells (derived from mouse mammary gland carcinoma) that do not express IR-95 were infected 4 times, about 4 h each time, with 1 ml viral supernatant
- mice Female nude mice, 4 to 5 weeks old, were divided into 4 groups of 4 individuals. Each individual in groups 1, 2 and 3 was subcutaneously implanted with one of the high expression clones of murine 6378 cells (2 x IO 7 cells / mouse) . The animals in group 4 were implanted with 6378 cells infected with the control expression vector. Tumor volume was measured twice a week and the tumor growth curve determined. Results
- Example 8 Correlation Between IR-95 Expression and Tumor Formation.
- IR-95 as a stimulator of natural killer (NK) cell acti ⁇ vity suggested that this protein represents a molecular alarm signal for the cellular immune defense system against cancer cells and possibly virus infections 2 .
- NK natural killer
- a panel of cell lines derived from different tumor types was characterized with respect to IR-95 expression and their ability to form solid tumors in nude mice.
- Table 1 shows that about 90% of the cell lines that displayed either no detectable or low levels of IR-95 expression formed tumors 10 to 15 days after subcutaneous implantation of 2 x IO 6 cells into nude mice, over 60% of the lines that expressed comparatively high levels of IR- 95 were not tumorigenic under identical experimental conditions. Mice inoculated with these cells remained tumor-free for at least six weeks. This effect was independent of the tissue origin and the species from which the original tumor was derived. These observations suggested that high level IR-95 expression by tumor cells suppressed tumor formation in nude mice, which, despite their lack of T cells, still possess functional macro- phages and NK cells, primary mediators of cell-mediated immunity.
- IR-95 For further investigation of the role of IR-95 in tumor suppression, we employed a replication-defective retrovirus containing cDNA coding for human IR-95 under the transcriptional control of mouse sarcoma virus 3' long terminal repeat 9 for the modulation of IR-95 expression on several cancer cell lines, MM5 and B-29, were infected with recombinant LXSN-IR-95 virus or the parental LXSN virus as a control. While neither cell line had detect ⁇ able endogenous mRNA or IR-95 protein, high levels of secreted IR-95 were detected in the conditioned media after infection with the LXSN-IR-95 virus at a multipli- city of infection (MOD of 5.
- MOD multipli- city of infection
- MM5 and B-29 cells For MM5 and B-29 cells, clonal (MM5/90-1, MM5/90-2, B-29/90-1, B-29/90-2) as well as polyclonal (B-29/90P) IR-95-expressing lines were established after LXSN-IR-95 virus infection by selection for neomycin resistance. No induction of IR-95 expression was detected for parental LXSN virus-infected and subsequently G418-selected cells.
- IR-95 protein was produced by retrovirus-infected tumor cells. MM5 and B-29 cells (ATCC, CRL 6444 and CRL 6325, respectively) were infected with the ecotropic retrovirus LXSN-IR-95 or the control virus LXSN. 80% confluent cells seeded in 6-cm dishes were labeled with [ 35 S]methionine in 0.1% dialysed FBS. Since IR-95 is secreted into the medium, the conditioned media of the labeled cells was analyzed for the presence of IR-95 protein by immunoprecipitation with the monoclonal antibody 19B5, SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and autoradiography.
- RESULTS Generation of the recombinant retrovirus.
- the IR-95 coding sequence was isolated from a Bluescript ksll vector, containing the full-length IR-95 cDNA 2 , as a EcoRV/XhoI restriction fragment and ligated into the retroviral vector pLXSN 9 , which was cut with Hpal and Xhol.
- the helper virus-free packaging cell line PA317 20 was transfected with pLXSN-IR-95.
- the low titer amphotropic viruses produced were used to infect GP+E-86 secondary packaging cells 21 .
- the GP+E-86 producer clones were obtained after G418 selection.
- Retrovirus-mediated gene transfer was performed as follows: Mouse mammary carcinoma cell lines were seeded at a density of 10 s cells per 6 cm dish. Cells were incubated with retrovirus-containing culture supernatant from GP+E-86 producer line clones for four hours in the presence of polybrene (4 ⁇ /ml; Aldrich) and at a MOI of 5. The infection cycle was repeated up to four time in order to achieve high IR-95 protein levels. After G418 selec ⁇ tion, clones and/or polyclonal populations of cells were isolated.
- MM5/90-1, MM5/90-2, B-29/90-1, and B-29/90-2 are clonal lines, and B-29/90p is a polyclonal line of B-29 cells infected with LXSN-IR-95.
- MM5/LXSN and B-29/LXSN are polyclonal kines of MM5 and B-29 cells infected with the control virus LXSN.
- mice subcutaneously injected 2 x IO 6 cells of the clonal and polyclonal lines above the right hind legs of nude mice.
- LXSN virus the same number of cells infected with LXSN virus only were implanted into the animals of the control group.
- the growth of developing tumors was subsequently measured at regular intervals.
- mice implanted with LXSN control virus-infected MM% or B-29 cells developed tumors, which increased in volume at an exponential rate (Fig. la . b) .
- mice For each of the experimental groups eight mice were implanted with LXSN or LXSN-IR-95 virus-infected B-29 or MM5 cells, respectively. All animals in the control groups, together with six animals with LXSN-IR-95 virus- infected B-29 or MM5 cells, were sacrificed when the tumors of the control animals reached a volume of 2,500 mm 3 .
- LXSN-IR-95 virus-infected cells two animals were kept or further surveillance of tumor development. The two mice implanted with B-29/90-1 cells ectopically expressing high levels of human IR-95 remained tumor-free for over three months. While one of these subsequently developed a slow growing tumor, the two experimental animals implanted with MM5/90-1 and MM5/90-2 cells remained tumor-free for over four months after cell implantation.
- Example 12 In Vivo Tumor Inhibition By Systemic
- ICAM-1 induction in vi tro by purified IR- 95 protein. While the expression of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 by vascular endothelium, ICAM-1 expression is low but can be markedly induced by cytokines such as interleukin-1 (IL-1) tumor necrosis factor (TNF) , and interferon- ⁇ (IFN- ⁇ ) , and VCAM- 1 is not expressed in resting endothelium, but may be induced by IL-1, IL-4, or TNF 14 ' 15 . We observed induction of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 in tumor endothelium by elevated local IR-95 concentrations.
- IL-1 interleukin-1
- TNF tumor necrosis factor
- IFN- ⁇ interferon- ⁇
- IR-95 This may be mediated directly by IR-95 or through cytokines secreted by accessory cells upon exposure to IR-95. Nevertheless, the increase of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 expression could be a first step in IR- 95 action, which would allow the margination of leukocytes on the vessel wall and migration into the tissue, via interaction of these cell adhesion proteins with their respective ligands, LFA-1 and VLA-4.
- Tumors were resected from animals which had been implanted with B-29/IR-95 cells or with control-infected cells. Sections were immunohistochemically stained with a mono ⁇ clonal anti-IR-95 antibody or with monoclonal antibodies directed against VACAM an dICAM-1. IR-95 expression in IR-95-secreting tumors (B-29/90-1 cells) , was measured, but at different magnifications. Tumor was resected from the control group, stained with anti-IR-95 antibodies; no positive staining could be detected.
- IR-95-secretin tumors stained with anti-ICAM-1 antibodies were observed at magnifications of 4 x, 63 x and 40 x.
- METHODS After sacrificing the animals, tumors were resected and embedded in tissue-tek (Miles) and frozen in liquid nitrogen. 5 urn thick sections were cut with a cryo- stat (Leica) and used for immunohistochemical analysis.
- the monoclonal mouse antibody 19B5 was used, and ICAM-1 and VCAM were detected using specific biotin labelled monoclonal antibodies (Pharminge, San Diego) .
- Table 1 shows the correlation between IR-95 expres ⁇ sion and tumor formation in nude mice.
- Cell lines derived from different tumor types were tested for their ability to grow as xenografts in nude mice.
- the expression of IR-95 was determined with either Northern analysis and/or Western blotting. Unless designated otherwise, the cell lines are of human origin. METHODS: For each cell line tested, 2 x 10 s to 1 x IO 7 cells were subcutaneously implanted in nude mice above the right hind leg.
- mice were observed for a period of at least six weeks.
- IR-95 expression levels of the lines grown in tissue culture were determined by Norther analysis and/or immunoblotting, using specific monoclonal and-IR-95 antibodies. -: no detectable IR-95 expression; +++: high IR-95 expression levels.
