Definitions
- the present invention relates to genes which encode a single chain antibody specific for a monomo ⁇ hic determinant expressed by the ⁇ 3 domain of human class I major histocompatibility complex molecules and methods for using said genes to confer programmed cell death properties to cells.
- PCD programmed cell death
- PCD The morphologic features of PCD are common to a wide variety of cells and include a decrease in cell size, cell membrane blebbing, cytoplasmic vacuolization, DNA condensation, and breakup of the cell into cell membrane-bound remnants called "apoptotic bodies". Id. The formation of cell membrane-bound apoptotic bodies prevents spillage of intracellular contents within the intercellular space, which prevents inflammatory changes. Id. These distinctive mo ⁇ hologic features, combined with internucleosomal DNA degradation and the absence of inflammation serve to distinguish PCD from necrosis.
- PCD has been shown to play a central role in several fundamental immunologic processes including thymic T-cell selection and T-cell-mediated cytotoxicity. Woodle, E.S., et al., Transplantation, 64(1): 140- 146 (1997). Additionally, PCD is thought to play a principal role in down-regulation of immune responses and is also believed to be the primary form of cell death in the development of tolerance via clonal deletion. Id. Several studies have examined a potential role for PCD in the rejection of transplanted organs. Id. These studies have demonstrated that PCD occurs in the rejection of the liver, kidney, and intestinal allografts. Id.

- in vitro studies have not provided consistent results (See, Lau, H.T., et al., Science, 273:109 (1996), Allison, J., et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci., 94:3943 (1997) and Kang, S-M., et al.,
- 5H7 is an anti-human class I MHC monoclonal antibody (mAb) which recognizes a monomo ⁇ hic determinant of the ⁇ 3 domain and possesses potent T cell inhibitory properties (see Smith, D.M., et al.. J. Immunol. 153:1054 (1994)). Studies have found that the 5H7 monoclonal antibody demonstrates a variety of effects, including the ability to inhibit anti-CD3- mediated T cell activation. The 5H7 mAb has been shown to induce PCD in lymphoid tumors, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC), and B6 mouse splenocytes transgenic for class I HLA-B27.
- PBMC peripheral blood mononuclear cells
- Cells treated with 5H7 demonstrate typical histologic features of PCD, including increased cytoplasmic granularity and vacuolization, membrane blebbing and apoptotic body formation.
- the potency of 5H7 in inducing PCD is comparable to that of anti-Fas mAbs (See Woodle. E.S., et al., J. Immunol, 158:2156 (199 )).
- 5H7 induces growth inhibition of lymphoid tumors and inhibition of TCR mediated T cell activation (See, Smith, D.M., et al., J. Immunol, 153:1054 (1994)).
- Single-chain variable immunoglobulin domains are genetically engineered, antigen-binding proteins composed of physically linked light and heavy variable (N L and N H ) regions of antibody.
- Potential uses of scFv's include delineation of fine epitope specificity, imaging of neoplastic tissues, removal of plasma toxins and targeting effector functions to specific cells (See, Raag, R., et al., FASEB, J. 9:73 (1995)).
- Tumors have been targeted for destruction by an anti-tumor scFv coupled to the cytotoxic domains of Pseudomonas exotoxin (See Brinkman, U., et al., J. Immunol, 150:2774 (1993)), and cytotoxic T cell (CTL)-mediated lysis has been directed to tumors via an anti-TCR/anti-fluorescein bispecific scFv (See, Gruber,
- scFv ' s Early limitation of scFv ' s included their univalency and requirement for physical attachment of effector domains. However, bivalent scFv's have subsequently been described (See. Mallender, WD, J. Biol Chem. 269:199 (1994)) and cell surface expression of scFv ' s via membrane anchors may provide sufficient receptor aggregation to initiate intercellular signals, even for the univalent scFv.
- Cell surface expression of a scFv has been achieved using a glycosylphosphotidylinostitol (GPI) (See. Winberg, G., et al., Immunol. Rev., 153:20 (1996)).

Pooled samples were analyzed and demonstrated PCD in lymphoid tumor cells expressing class I MHC, but not control Daudi cells (See Fig. 6). Responder cell PCD was noted as early as 24 hours post co-culture with maximal levels noted at 72 hours, a kinetic profile that is similar to plastic immobilized 5H7 mAb.
- Annexin V binds to phosphotidylserine residues of cells undergo death. Lymphoid cells were harvested from co- culture experiments as described above and stained with Annexin V-FITC, and PCD was measured by flow cytometry. Increased Annexin V-FITC binding was observed in Jurkat and
