Definitions
- the present invention relates to the use of various proteins as diagnostic markers for cancer, the use of drugs for the treatment of cancer and related pharmaceutical compositions and kits.
- Tumor is understood to be a tumor or the locally circumscribed increase in tissue volume.
- any localized swelling e.g. As an edema, an acute and chronic inflammation, aneurysmal dilatation, an inflammatory organ swelling (eg., As a so-called spleen tumor) are understood.
- tumor neoplasms growth, piastoma, neoplasia
- embossed loss of specific cell and tissue function understood.
- the tumors are subdivided for better classification into:
- Biological behavior 1. Benign (benign) tumors with differentiated cells and slow, locally displacing growth. 2. Malignant tumors with nuclear polymorphism, cell atypia, anaplasia and infiltrating, usually rapid, destructive growth and metastasis. 3. semimalignant tumors with histological features of malignant tumors and locally infiltrating growth, but usually without metastases.
- the tumors are classified according to the tissue from which they evolved from a developmental point of view. There are: 1. Epithelial tumors, which have emerged from ectoderm and endoderm: a) benign tumors such. Adenoma, papilloma and polyps. b) malignant tumors such. B. Carcinoma. 2. mesenchymal tumors arising from the mesoderm: a) benign tumors such. B. lipoma, fibroma, osteoma, myoma, leiomyoma, rhabdomyoma, chondroma, b) malignant tumors such. As the sarcoma. 3.
- embryonic tumors have emerged from undifferentiated tissue. These include z. Nephroblastomas, neuroblastomas, medulloblastomas, reti- noblastomas and embryonal rhabdomyosarcomas and teratomas.
- mummy carcinomas the most common malignant tumor in women, frequently occur between the ages of 45 and 70 years.
- Early symptoms are suspicious tactile findings that are usually detected as a result of early cancer screening and regular breast self-examination.
- the prognosis can be quite positive to very bad.
- a rapid diagnosis of the tumor is important in order to be able to use it as soon as possible.
- Prostate carcinoma (carcinoma of the prostate), in contrast, is the most common malignant tumor of the man, which occurs mainly between the 50th and 70th year of life. The majority are adeno- carcinomas. This malignant tumor spreads first through infiltrating growth within the prostate, later an infiltration of seminal vesicles and pelvic connective tissue occurs, relatively rarely also of the rectum, urinary bladder or urethra. Metastasis is lymphogenous and / or hematogenous. Depending on the degree of histological differentiation and the clinical stage, therapy is generally carried out by radical prostatectomy with regional lymphadenopathy, and in the advanced stage withdrawal of male sex hormones. Again, the prognosis depends on the stage of the carcinoma. While in a very early stage after a radical prostatectomy in about 90% of the cases, a healing occurs, is expected at an advanced stage rather pessimistic prognosis.
- Prostate carcinomas are to be distinguished from prostate hyperplasia in the diagnosis.
- Prostatic hyperplasia is a benign, benign tumor. The prostate enlarges by numerical increase of the cells and glands of the stroma.
- Prostatic hyperplasia is the most common cause of urinary bladder dysfunction in men. Clinically it starts mainly between the 40th and 50th year of life. The course is slow and in turns. The occurrence of complaints usually occurs only after years with gradual weakening of the urinary stream and delayed onset of micturition. In this case, the administration of phytotherapeutic agents can be considered as therapy or alleviation of the symptoms.
- Tumor markers are generally substances and cellular changes whose qualitative or quantitative analysis provides information about lie, history or prognosis of (malignant) diseases. Tumor markers are divided into:
- Cellular tumor markers include, among others, cell membrane-associated tumor antigens, receptors (eg hormone receptors, receptors for growth-promoting substances in leukemia) and cell markers, which indicate an increased expression of oncogenes and monoclonal cell growth, as well as molecular genetic cellular changes, especially chromosome aberrations.
- Humoral tumor markers These are in physiological conditions in body samples, especially in serum, urine and other body fluids in increased concentrations detectable (usually physiologically occurring) substances synthesized and / or secreted by the tumor tissue, released by tumor breakdown or in response to the Organism to be formed on a tumor.
- the physiological significance of tumor markers is poorly understood. In the human organism they are generally not immunogenic. The clinical (diagnostic) significance depends on its specificity and sensitivity.
- the humoral tumor markers are divided into two groups. The first group summarizes the humoral tumor markers produced by the tumor itself. These include z.
- Tumor-associated antigens certain hormones (eg, gastrin, cortisol, etc.), enzymes (eg, neuron-specific enolase (NSE)), and proteins (eg, Bence-Jones protein).
- the second group contains the tumor markers which, although induced by the tumor, are not even produced. Important humoral tumor markers of this group are z. As alkaline phosphatase (AP), LDH, Neopte n etc.
- the invention has the object to provide new diagnostic markers for cancer as well as new targets and agents for cancer therapy.
- Intensive comparative analyzes between malignant degenerated tissue (cancerous tissue) and non-degenerated tissue identified various proteins that significantly differ in their abundance and concentration (abundance) in these tissue types.
- the characteristic abundance of a particular protein in comparison with controls therefore represents an important indicator of the presence of degenerate cell growth, ie cancerous tissue. According to the invention, these proteins are used as diagnostic markers for cancer.
- samples from cancer tissue (prostate cancer) and healthy prostate tissue were prepared and each of the two samples labeled with different radioactive isotopes.
- the samples were mixed together and electrophoresed together on a two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel.
- the signals of each isotope were detected separately and the corresponding protein spots further analyzed.
- the invention includes the use of the protein annexin A3 as a diagnostic marker for prostate cancer.
- the inventors were able to show that this protein is upregulated 2.4 times in cancerous tissue and more than 5-fold in certain patient groups.
- annexin A3 can thus be used as a diagnostic marker for certain subtypes (patient groups) of prostate cancer. Therefore, up-regulation of this protein is preferably studied in comparison with controls as a characteristic feature of cancerous tissues.
- the annexins are a family of structurally related proteins that can bind phospholipids as a function of calcium and form calcium pores. The exact role of the annexins is so far unclear.
- annexins are thought to be involved in both intracellular and extracellular events such as membrane trafficking, cell motility, Ca 2+ influx and signal transduction.
- annexins are secreted. For example, they lack classical leader sequences for translation into the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum. Since, however, some of the xenoses were found in small secreted membrane vesicles with a diameter of 30-100 nm, the so-called exosomes, it is assumed that annexins can reach the outside of the cell by lysing these exosomes. Lysis of these vesicles can lead to altered antigen presentation in tumors.
- exosomes play a role in antigen presentation in the immune system and are involved in the MHC class I / T cell system.
- annexins are involved in the process of bone mineralization (Wang, W., Xu, J., Kirsch, T. 2003, Annexin-mediated Ca 2+ influx regulates growth plate chondrocyte maturation and apoptosis, J. Biol. Chem , 278: 3762-9).
- prostate cancer metastases cause an unusually high frequency of osteoblastic bone lesions compared to other cancers. Most cancer metastases are characterized by osteolytic activity, ie bone loss, while prostate cancer metastases show both osteoclastic activity and osteoblastic activity.
- annexin proteins eg annexin A2, A5 and A6 as well as collagen type li and X on the outer surface of the vesicles, which are attached to the outer vesicle surface via binding to annexin A5.
- the annexins form channels in the membranes of the matrix vesicles, through which Ca 2+ penetrates into the vesicles.
- Collagen bound to annexin A5 enhances these channel activities and, with other annexins, mediates rapid Ca 2+ influx and the formation of the first crystalline phase within the vesicles. This leads to the initiation of mineralization.
- the activity of the protein in exosomes is influenced.
- this leads to altered immune surveillance and metastatic properties of the tumor cells.
- an affinity reagent in particular a therapeutic antibody which has a high affinity for annexin A3, can be used to detect active substances such as toxins or radioactive doses in which To move near the tumor.
- Such an agent should preferably not effectively penetrate the cell membrane, so as to advantageously affect healthy cells which express only intracellular annexin A3.
- matrix vesicles were also observed in association with osteoarthritic cartilage and arteriosclerotic lesions.
- cytoplasmic proteins The release of cytoplasmic proteins into the extracellular medium which occurs after lysis of the exosomes can induce an inflammatory response similar to that in cell necrosis. It is known that inflammation can reduce the adaptive T cell-mediated immune response, which is known to characterize many cancer cells. Furthermore, the presence of annexins in the extracellular space can also influence this course (A. Bondanza et al., 2004, J. Exp. Med., 200, 1157-65). Therefore, a cancer vaccine could be determined by understanding and influencing this system.
- annexin A3 In a particularly preferred use of the protein annexin A3, an upregulation of this protein in combination with a downregulation of annexin A1, annexin A2 and / or annexin A5 is investigated. This is preferably done in comparison with controls. It has already been shown that annexin A1, A2 and annexin A5 are downregulated in cancerous tissue and especially in prostate cancer tissue. Thus, an analysis of downregulation of annexin A3 in combination with the downregulation of one or more of these additional annexins is particularly instructive for a diagnosis. Based on the available results, annexin A3 could replace other annexins during prostate carcinogenesis and therefore be a surrogate marker or replacement target for prostate cancer treatment.
- the invention further includes the use of the protein ubiquitin isopeptidase T and / or the protein protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) as diagnostic markers for cancer.
- PDI protein protein disulfide isomerase
- downregulation of ubiquitin isopeptidase T and / or upregulation of protein disulphide isomerase (PDI) in comparison with controls is used as a characteristic feature of cancerous tissue.
- the inventors have been able to show that the ubiquitin isopeptidase T is about 5 to 6 times less abundant in cancerous tissue and about twice as high in cancerous tissues as compared to healthy tissue. This shows an inverse correlation between PDI and ubiquitin isopeptidase T.
- the ubiquitin isopeptidase T is an enzyme that, among other enzymes, is involved in the ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis of proteins. After addition of a polyubiquitin chain to the target protein, the ubiquitinated protein is degraded by a complex consisting of many subunits, known as 26 S-proteasome. The subsequent detachment of the polyubiquitin chain is mediated by the zinc-binding enzyme ubiquitin isopeptidase T. Downregulation of ubiquitin isopeptidase T could therefore influence the rate of ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis in prostate cancer or the rate of degradation of specific proteins.
- PDI is involved in the controlled proteolysis of proteins, ie in apoptotic processes.
- PDI interacts in the endoplasmic reticulum under certain conditions with ubiquitin, which has a ubiquitin-like domain and a ubiquitin-associated domain. This association has already been functionally related to the achievement of tolerance to ischemic stress and apoptosis (Ko HS et al., 2002, J. Biol. Chem. 277: 35386-92).
- ubiquitin isopeptidase T is analyzed in the abundance as a diagnostic feature. This is particularly advantageous because ubiquitin isopeptidase T is very abundant in its abundance in cancerous tissue compared to controls, d. H. to about one-fifth to about one-sixth, is reduced. The observed reduced abundance of ubiquitin isopeptidase T in carcinomatous tissue is more pronounced than in the mammalian fatty acid-binding protein (M-FABP), which is a recognized anti-oncogene.
- M-FABP mammalian fatty acid-binding protein
- the invention encompasses the use of mitochondrial enoyl-coenzyme A hydratase as a diagnostic marker for cancer and / or as a therapeutic target molecule.
- This protein may also be used in combination with the fatty acid binding protein 3 (FABP-3) and / or the epidermal fatty acid binding protein (E-FABP) and / or annexin A3.
- E-FABP epidermal fatty acid-binding protein
- FABP-3 fatty acid-binding protein 3
- the inventors have been able to show that the mitochondrial enoyl-coenzyme A hydratase in cancerous tissue is increased on average by about 2.8-fold to 4-fold in its abundance.
- This enzyme has already been described in connection with the ⁇ -oxidation of fatty acids, which predominantly occurs in the mitochondria.
- Enoyl coenzyme A hydratase is involved in non-oxidative metabolism. It has long been known that cancer cells show increased non-oxidative metabolism even in the presence of excess oxygen, and that both fatty acid oxidation and de novo synthesis increase in cancer patients. Cancer is associated with a variety of changes in fatty acid metabolism.
- fatty acid synthase the enzyme responsible for de novo fatty acid synthesis
- enoyl-coenzyme A hydratase is a similarly suitable target.
- This association with fatty acid metabolism establishes a functional relationship of enoyl-coenzyme A hydratase with FABP-3 and E-FABP.
- FABP-3 is downregulated about 2.5-fold
- a role in cell cycle control has been described for FABP-3 (Seidita G.
- E-FABP has previously been described in association with various types of cancer and has been detected in the urine of cancer patients (Brouard MC et al., 2002, Melanoma Research 12: 627-31).
- the increased abundance of this protein observed by the inventors makes it especially suitable in combination with the other markers mitochondrial e-noyl-coenzyme A hydratase and / or FABP-3 and / or annexin A3 as a diagnostic marker for cancer, as here there is a functional relationship between these different proteins.
- the invention encompasses the use of the protein serum amyloid P component (SAP) as a diagnostic marker or as a therapeutic reagent for cancer.
- SAP protein serum amyloid P component
- the inventors have been able to show that this protein is decreased in cancerous tissue on average about 2.7 to 5.1 times in frequency.
- SAP is mainly on to find stromal cells from benign prostate tissue, so that its relatively lower abundance in cancerous tissue could be explained by the relatively lower amount of stromal cells in cancerous tissue.
- the study of downregulation of SAP in comparison with controls is therefore particularly suitable as a characteristic feature of cancerous tissue.
- SAP is a lectin-like acute phase protein (results from mice) of the pentraxin family and is associated with several amyloid diseases.
- Amyloid deposits are sometimes observed in the male urological system, but biology is poorly understood.
- Properly folded native SAP binds, in addition to amyloid fibrils, polysaccharides, including microbial polysaccharides and matrix components, via acidic carbohydrate determinants, phosphoethanolamine, and
- SAP component of simple membranes may mediate their interactions with laminins and phospholipids. It is involved in target recognition by phagocytes of the evolutionary old systemic immune system, such as the poly- morpho-nuclear leukocytes, and binds to phospholipids on apoptotic cells and mediates their phagocytosis by macrophages. It has long been known that the of SAP is elevated in malignant human serum and IL-6 appears to be responsible, at least in the serum of some cancer patients. In summary, it can be assumed that SAP is involved in modulating the interaction of non-cancerous cells with their environment, and possibly in immune surveillance, a function that is likely to be disrupted in many cancer cells.
- the pentraxins are inducible by cytokines and increase dramatically in their concentration in the blood in infections or trauma. So they play a role in the immune system.
- the present observations establish an association between annexin A3, ubiquitin isopeptidase T, and the serum amyloid P component in immune surveillance of the prostate close, which results in an altered regulation of immune surveillance by exosomes.
- the invention encompasses the " use of the protein 14-3-3 protein tau as a diagnostic marker for cancer.”
- This protein is known to be involved in apoptotic processes, and this protein has also been described in the context of cancer, but has become anti-oncogenic (He H., 1997, Gan-To-Kagaku-Ryoho 24: 1448-53)
- the inventors have now surprisingly detected an elevated level (1.8-fold) of 14-3-3 protein tau in cancerous tissue
- Immunohistochemical staining reactions have shown that the protein 14-3-3 tau occurs mainly in healthy epithelial cells as well as in cancer cells of the prostate tissue, whereas in the stroma the protein 14-3-3 tau occurs only in lymphocytes (only lymphocytes are stained Therefore, in the present invention, upregulation of the protein is examined in comparison with controls as a characteristic feature of cancerous tissues.
- the invention encompasses the use of the protein chloride nuclear channel protein (CLIC-1) protein as a diagnostic marker for cancer, in particular for prostate cancer.
- CLIC-1 protein chloride nuclear channel protein
- the inventors were able to detect an approximately 1.5-fold increase in the abundance of this protein in cancerous tissue compared to controls.
- up-regulation of this protein is preferably studied in comparison with controls as a characteristic feature of cancerous tissues.
- This intracellular anion channel has already been described in connection with cell division and apoptosis (Ashley R.H., 2003, Mol. Membr. Biol. 20: 1-11).
- the invention includes the use of the protein HES1 as a diagnostic marker for cancer.
- the inventors of this protein were able to show that it is about fourfold in cancerous tissue in its abundance compared with controls is increased.
- the T-test probability for a corresponding downregulation was calculated as p ⁇ 0.0001. Therefore, an upregulation of this protein is preferably investigated in comparison with controls as a diagnostic feature for a cancerous disease.
- This protein is a specific splice variant (HES1 / Kpn-Ia) whose function is unknown. It contains a DJ1-Pfpl domain, and mitochondrial localization is assumed, suggesting a possible association with the function of enoyl-coenzyme A hydratase.
- This protein is expressed in many human tissues. The inventors were able to show a connection with cancer for the first time with this protein.
- the invention encompasses the use of the proteasome alpha 2 subunit as a diagnostic marker for cancer.
- the inventors were able to establish a connection between this protein and cancers for the first time. There was an approximately two-fold increase in abundance in cancerous tissue compared with controls. The T-test probabilities gave a value of p ⁇ 0.009 for this protein.
- an upregulation of the proteasome alpha 2 subunit is examined in comparison with controls.
- Proteasomes are known to be involved in the processing of the peptide presentation of the immune system via the MHC class I system, which is related to the activity of killer T cells.
- the invention encompasses the use of the protein adenine phosphoribosyltransferase as a diagnostic marker for cancer, in particular for prostate cancer.
- This protein has been discussed several times in the context of cancer. For example, it is described that this protein is down-regulated in lymphocytes of breast cancer patients. Furthermore, overexpression of the protein in colorectal carcinoma has also been observed. The inventors could now show that this protein in prostate cancer tissue is increased about twice in its frequency. The T-test probabilities for this differential abundance gave a value of p ⁇ 0.007. Therefore, according to the invention, an upregulation of the protein in comparison with controls is investigated as a characteristic feature for prostate cancer tissue.
- the invention encompasses the use of the protein inorganic pyrophosphatase as a diagnostic marker for cancer, in particular for prostate cancer.
- Upregulation of this protein in lung cancer and colorectal cancer has been demonstrated.
- the inventors have now been able to demonstrate that this protein is upregulated approximately 1.6-fold in prostate cancer tissue as compared to controls. These results showed a T-test probability of p ⁇ 0.005.
- the reaction catalyzed by inorganic pyrophosphatase releases inorganic phosphate. This is related to the calcification processes involving annexins, particularly annexin A3, which are involved in the Ca 2+ flux.
- annexin A3 which are involved in the Ca 2+ flux.
- between the upregulation of annexin A3 and the upregulation of inorganic pyrophosphatase could therefore exist a functional relationship.
- the invention encompasses the use of at least one of the following proteins as a diagnostic marker for cancer: ubiquitin isopeptidase T, serum amyloid P component (SAP), fatty acid binding protein 3 (FABP-3), galectin, microseminoprotein beta , Heat shock protein 27 (HSP27), 14-3-3 protein beta, 14-3-3 protein zeta, nuclear chloride ion channel protein (CLIC-1), 14-3-3 protein tau, heat shock protein 90 (HSP90), protein disulfide isomerase (PDI), epidermal fatty acid binding protein (E-FABP), mitochondrial enoyl-coenzyme A hydratase, nucleophosmin, annexin, especially annexin A3, transgelin, triosephosphate isomerase, aldolase A , HES1, proteasome alpha 2 subunit, adenine phospho bosyltransferase and inorganic pyrophosphatase.
- proteins as a diagnostic marker for cancer
- an upregulation of at least one of the following proteins is examined in comparison with controls: 14-3-3 protein beta, 14-3-3 protein zeta, nuclear chloride ion channel protein (CLIC-1 ), 14-3-3 protein tau, heat shock protein 90 (HSP90), protein disulfide isomerase (PDI), epidermal fatty acid binding protein (E-FABP), mitochondrial enoyl coenzyme A hydratase, nucleophosmin, annexin, in particular annexin A3, triosephosphate isomerase, aldolase A, HES1, proteasome alpha 2 subunit, adenine phosphoribosyltransferase and inorganic pyrophosphatase. It is particularly preferred if, in addition to one or more of these proteins, a downregulation of other annexins is investigated. Furthermore, it is particularly preferred that at least two proteins are examined.
- At least two of the following proteins are used as diagnostic markers: ubiquitin isopeptidase T, heat shock protein 27 (HSP27), serum amyloid P component (SAP), heat shock protein 90 (HSP90), protein disulfide isomerase (PDI). , Annexin A3, mitochondrial enoyl-coenzyme A hydratase and / or nucleophosphate.

- proteins could be identified, each of which is up-regulated or down-regulated in cancerous tissue compared to control tissue in certain patient groups (cluster analysis). These are the proteins annexin A3, transgelin, triosephosphate isomerase and aldolase A. Annexin A3 is upregulated about 5-fold in cancer tissue and transgelin is downregulated about 5-fold. Triosephosphate isomerase and aldolase A are upregulated respectively in cancerous tissue by about 20% and about 10%, respectively.
- FIG. 3 graphically illustrates the results of the cluster analysis. This results in the upregulation or downregulation of various proteins in cancerous tissues of specific patient groups or specific clusters, each of which is represented by a circle, in comparison with healthy tissue.
- proteins were identified that showed abnormal abundance or were upregulated or down-regulated in comparison with cancerous tissue with control tissue in certain patient groups. These proteins are ATP synthase, biliveridine reductase B, glucose-regulated protein, prolyl 4-hydroxylase beta and dnak-like molecular chaperone. Indeed, ATP synthase is downregulated and the remainder of these proteins are upregulated.
- lipid metabolism For annexin A3 and SAP, direct binding to lipids has been described. Both proteins are involved in phagocytic processes. Two fatty acid binding proteins were identified with FABP-3 and E-FABP. Mitochondrial enoyl-coenzyme A hydratase is involved in the ß-oxidation of fatty acids. The activity of HSP27 is stimulated by the activity of protein kinase C, itself affected by the activity of phospholipases that convert phospholipids. HSP90 also affects phospholipid metabolism since inhibition of HSP90 results in altered phospholipid metabolism (Chung YL et al., 2003, J. Natl. Cancer Inst.
- PDI is believed to be also associated with lipid metabolism since PDI acts as a multifunctional protein involved in, inter alia, triglyceride transfer (Horiuchi R. and Yamauchi K., 1994, Nippon-Rinsho 52: 890-5).
- the 14-3-3 proteins inhibit the activity of protein kinase C and contain conserved sequences resembling the pseudosubstrate domain of protein kinase C and the C-terminus of annexins. This all indicates that there is a functional relationship between these different proteins.
- diagnostic markers used in the invention various types of tumors and cancers can be detected.
- the cancer to be diagnosed is prostate cancer, in particular a prostate carcinoma.
- prostate cancer is the most common malignant tumors in men. Only if a prostate tumor can be detected at an early stage can a preventive surgical removal of the prostate be a promising therapy. For the advanced, no longer limited to an organ disease, a preventive removal of the prostate is no longer sufficient.
- inhibition of male sex hormones may be considered.
