Definitions
- the present invention relates to new antibodies specific of the ⁇ -amyloid peptides and their uses as diagnostic agents or drugs.
- Amyloidosis refers to a pathological condition in a mammal characterized by the presence of amyloid fibers.
- Amyloid is a generic term referring to a group of diverse but specific protein deposits. All amyloid deposits have common morphologic properties, stain with specific dyes (e.g. Congo red), and have a characteristic red-green birefringent appearance in polarized light after staining. Different amyloids are also characterized by the type of protein present in the deposit.
- neurodegenerative diseases such as scrapie, bovine spongiform encephalitis, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease and the like are characterized by the appearance and accumulation of a protease-resistant form of prion protein (referred to as AScr or PrP-27) in the central nervous system.
- AScr protease-resistant form of prion protein
- Alzheimer's disease another neurodegenerative disorder, is characterized by neuritic plaques and neurofibrillary tangles.
- the plaque and blood vessel amyloid is formed by the deposition of fibrillar ⁇ -amyloid protein.
- AD Alzheimer's disease
- the incidence of AD increases with age, affecting 1 out of 10 persons older than age 65 and nearly 1 out of 2 persons older than age 85.
- the natural history of the disease can be characterized as an irreversibly progressive brain disorder that ultimately results in devastating memory loss, profound behavioural and personality changes, and severely damaged cognitive abilities.
- These impairments are related to the underlying death of brain cells and the breakdown of communication between them.
- the impact of AD on society and on national economies is enormous.
- AD brains Two major types of histological lesions are observed in AD brains, in association with neuronal loss (Felician and Sandson, (1999), The neurobiology and pharmacotherapy of Alzheimer's disease. J. Neuropsychiatry Clin. Neurosci. 11: 19-31):
- NFTs neurofibrillary tangles
- PHF paired helical filaments
- amyloid plaques are formed by deposits of fibrillary ⁇ -amyloid (A ⁇ ).
- a ⁇ is a major component of the senile plaques.
- a ⁇ is a small peptide found mainly in two sizes, consisting of 40 (A ⁇ i_4o) and 42 (A ⁇ i_42) amino acids respectively, and in minor amounts in other sizes.
- a ⁇ is known to be metabolised from the proteolytic cleavage of APP
- APP can be cleaved via two main routes, a major non-amyloidogenic route and a minor second, amyloidogenic route that yields A ⁇ as ultimate product.
- the main pathway for catabolism of APP is through cleavage by ⁇ -secretase at a single site in APP near the center of the ⁇ -amyloid peptide region (Esch et al., (1990), Cleavage of amyloid beta peptide during constitutive processing of its precursor. Science 248: 1122-1124; Sisodia, (1992), Beta-amyloid precursor protein cleavage by a membrane- bound protease. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 89: 6075-6079).
- the products yielded by this route are a large N-terminal region of APP (APPs ⁇ ) and a membrane associated C-terminal fragment (C83), which is subsequently hydrolysed by ⁇ -secretase to yield the nearly unknown small p3 peptide.
- APPs ⁇ N-terminal region of APP
- C83 membrane associated C-terminal fragment
- This is the non-amyloidogenic route because the cleavage site is located approximately in the middle of the A ⁇ sequence, with no possibility of A ⁇ formation.
- the second APP processing pathway is the N- and C-terminal cleavage of APP by ⁇ - and ⁇ - secretase (Fig. 1).
- ⁇ -secretase cleaves at the amino terminus of the ⁇ -amyloid peptide and occurs first, followed by ⁇ -secretase, which releases the carboxy terminus of the peptide.
- amyloid peptides involved in parenchymal plaque deposition are distinct from plaque deposition observed in transgenic mouse models (Sergeant,N. et al., (2003) Truncated beta-amyloid peptide species in pre-clinical Alzheimer's disease as new targets for the vaccination approach. Journal of Neurochemistry 85: 1581-1591; Kalback,W. et al., (2002) APP transgenic mice Tg2576 accumulate Abeta peptides that are distinct from the chemically modified and insoluble peptides deposited in Alzheimer's disease senile plaques. Biochemistry 41 : 922-928; Rufenacht,P. et al. (2005) Quantification of the A ⁇ peptide in Alzheimer's plaques by laser dissection microscopy combined with mass spectrometry. J Mass Spectrom 40: 193-201).
- N-truncated forms of A ⁇ 42 are much more abundant than the full-size secretase-generated A ⁇ .
- Immunotherapy for Alzheimer with antibodies directed to the ⁇ -amyloid peptide is a potential new way to treat Alzheimer's disease (Schenk et al., (2000), beta-peptide immunization: a possible new treatment for Alzheimer disease. Arch Neurol 57: 934-936; Hock et al., (2003), Antibodies against beta-amyloid slow cognitive decline in Alzheimer's disease. Neuron 38: 547-554).
- ⁇ -amyloid is a normal constituent of normal tissue and biological fluids severe side effects have halted the first clinical trials (Orgogozo et al., (2003), Subacute meningoencephalitis in a subset of patients with AD after Abeta 42 immunization. Neurology 61 : 46-54).
- the international application WO 2004/029630 discloses a monoclonal antibody which specifically recognises A ⁇ n_ x peptides and does not recognise A ⁇ i_ x peptide (x being 40 or 42).
- the peptides used for immunization are the first 5 to 7 human amino-acids of the ⁇ secretase_l l cleavage site (the ⁇ secretase cleaves the APP protein at GIu 11). Nevertheless, the A ⁇ n_ x peptides are not the A ⁇ peptides observed at the very early stages of amyloid deposition (Sergeant et al., Truncated beta-amyloid peptide species in pre-clinical Alzheimer's disease as new targets for the vaccination approach. Journal of Neurochemistry 85, 1581-1591 (2003).
- a ⁇ n_ x is not a pathological species as it is produced from cleavage of ⁇ secretase and N-truncated forms of A ⁇ 42 are much more abundant than the full- size A ⁇ 42 and A ⁇ n_ x species.
- International application WO 2004/013172 relates to polyclonal antibodies directed toward truncated beta-amyloid peptide species A ⁇ m _ n , m being comprised from 1 to 10 and n being comprised from m + 3 to m + 15.
- the peptides used for immunization are A ⁇ s_i2, A ⁇ -13, A ⁇ s-is, A ⁇ g_i6. Nevertheless antibodies of this application are polyclonal, having a moderate affinity.
- Murayama K. S. et al. (Murayama K. S. et al, (2007), A novel monoclonal antibody specific for the amino -truncated ⁇ -amyloid A ⁇ 5 _ 40 /42 produced from caspase-cleaved amyloid precursor protein, 161 : 244-249) disclose a monoclonal antibody obtained with peptide A ⁇ s-12 immunization, and that recognises specifically A ⁇ s_4o and not A ⁇ i_4o. Two other antibodies are described in this paper:
- One of the aims of the present invention is to provide an antibody which specifically binds to N-terminal region of A ⁇ s_ x peptide and does not recognise A ⁇ i_ x (x being 40 or 42) and is able to specifically recognise the early stages peptides of ⁇ -amyloid deposit.
- a further aim of the present invention is to provide synthetic peptides useful to produce an immune response against N-truncated peptides of A ⁇ and consequently useful for the prevention or the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.
- the present invention also relates to a process of preparation in order to obtain an antibody which specifically binds to N-terminal region of A ⁇ s_ x peptide.
- the present invention further relates to a method for determining amyloid burden in mammals.
- a further aim of the present invention is to provide a method for determining, in a mammal, the susceptibility to a disease associated with A ⁇ formation and/or aggregation such as Alzheimer's disease, for determining, in a mammal, the risk of developing a disease associated with ⁇ -amyloid formation and/or aggregation such as Alzheimer's disease, for screening of the clearance of ⁇ -amyloid deposition in mammal, or for predicting the level of ⁇ -amyloid burden in a mammal.
- the present invention also relates to therapeutic or vaccine compositions comprising an antibody specific to N-terminal region of A ⁇ s_ x peptide or comprising synthetic peptides with a free N-terminal-end mimicking the free N-terminal-end of N-truncated A ⁇ peptides, useful for the preparation of a drug or a vaccine intended for the prevention or the treatment of Alzheimer disease.
- the present invention further relates the use of an antibody for the preparation of a drug or a vaccine intended for the prevention or the treatment of Alzheimer disease.
- the present invention relates to an antibody which specifically binds to the N-terminal region of A ⁇ 8 - X peptide, x being comprised from 11 to 42, and recognises neither A ⁇ i_ 40 nor A ⁇ i_ 42 .
- the term "antibody” is used to denote polyclonals or monoclonals specific to A ⁇ s_ x and also include fragments or molecules which mimick the monoclonals specific to A ⁇ s_ x , and in particular epitope binding fragment. Fragments or molecules may be derived from monoclonals by recombinant DNA techniques or by enzymatic or chemical methods and may exhibit similar binding characteristics compared to the monoclonal for an antigen fragment.
- polyclonal antibody is meant an antibody derived from different B-cell lines.
- monoclonal antibody is meant an antibody coming from only one type of cell, the hybridoma cell.
- hybridoma cell is meant a cell fusion which will continually produce antibodies, i.e. tumor cells that can replicate endlessly which are fused with mammalian cells.
- antibody fragments include any portion of an antibody that retains the ability to bind to the epitope recognized by the full length antibody, generally termed “epitope-binding fragments.”
- antibody fragments include, but are not limited to, Fab, Fab' and F(ab')2, Fd, single-chain Fvs (scFv), single-chain antibodies, disulfide- linked Fvs (dsFv) and fragments comprising either a VL or VH region.
- Epitope-binding fragments, including single-chain antibodies may comprise the variable region(s) alone or in combination with the entirety or a portion of the following: hinge region, CHl, CH2, and CH3 domains.
- fragments may contain one or both Fab fragments or the F(ab') 2 fragment. Further, the fragments may be or may combine members of any one of the following immunoglobulin classes: IgG, IgM, IgA, IgD, or IgE, and the subclasses thereof.
- Fab and F(ab') 2 fragments may be produced by proteolytic cleavage, using enzymes such as papain (Fab fragments) or pepsin (F(ab') 2 fragments).
- the "single-chain FVs" (“scFvs”) fragments are epitope-binding fragments that contain at least one fragment of an antibody heavy chain variable region (V H ) linked to at least one fragment of an antibody light chain variable region (V L ).
- the linker may be a short, flexible peptide selected to assure that the proper three-dimensional folding of the V L and V H regions occurs once they are linked so as to maintain the target molecule binding-specificity of the whole antibody from which the single-chain antibody fragment is derived.
- the carboxyl terminus of the V L or V H sequence may be covalently linked by a linker to the amino acid terminus of a complementary V L or V H sequence.
- Single-chain antibody fragments of the present invention contain amino acid sequences having at least one of the variable or complementarity determining regions (CDRs) of the whole antibodies described in this specification, but lack some or all of the constant domains of those antibodies. These constant domains are not necessary for antigen binding, but constitute a major portion of the structure of whole antibodies. Single-chain antibody fragments may therefore overcome some of the problems associated with the use of antibodies containing a part or all of a constant domain. For example, single-chain antibody fragments tend to be free of undesired interactions between biological molecules and the heavy-chain constant region, or other unwanted biological activity.
- single-chain antibody fragments are considerably smaller than whole antibodies and may therefore have greater capillary permeability than whole antibodies, allowing single-chain antibody fragments to localize and bind to target antigen-binding sites more efficiently. Also, antibody fragments can be produced on a relatively large scale in prokaryotic cells, thus facilitating their production. Furthermore, the relatively small size of single-chain antibody fragments makes them less likely to provoke an immune response in a recipient than whole antibodies.
- Single-chain antibody fragments may be generated by molecular cloning, antibody phage display library or similar techniques well known to the skilled artisan. These proteins may be produced, for example, in eukaryotic cells or prokaryotic cells, including bacteria.
- the epitope-binding fragments of the present invention can also be generated using various phage display methods known in the art. In phage display methods, functional antibody domains are displayed on the surface of phage particles which carry the polynucleotide sequences encoding them. In particular, such phage can be utilized to display epitope-binding domains expressed from a repertoire or combinatorial antibody library (e.g., human or murine).
- Phage expressing an epitope-binding domain that binds the antigen of interest can be selected or identified with antigen, e.g., using labelled antigen bound or captured to a solid surface or bead.
- Phages used in these methods are typically filamentous phage including fd and M 13 binding domains expressed from phage with Fab, Fv or disulfide- stabilized Fv antibody domains recombinantly fused to either the phage gene III or gene VIII protein.
- the regions of the phage encoding the fragments can be isolated and used to generate the epitope-binding fragments through expression in a chosen host, including mammalian cells, insect cells, plant cells, yeast, and bacteria, using recombinant
- linker is reduced to less than three amino acid residues, trimeric and tetrameric structures are formed that are called triabodies and tetrabodies.
- the smallest binding unit of an antibody is a CDR, typically the CDR2 of the heavy chain which has sufficient specific recognition and binding that it can be used separately.
- Such a fragment is called a molecular recognition unit or mru.
- mru molecular recognition unit
- modified antibodies include antibodies that have been modified, e.g., by glycosylation, acetylation, pegylation, phosphorylation, amidation, derivatization by known protecting/blocking groups, proteolytic cleavage, linkage to a cellular ligand or other protein, etc.
- the covalent attachment does not prevent the antibody from generating an anti- idiotypic response.
- modifications may be carried out by known techniques, including, but not limited to, specific chemical cleavage, acetylation, formylation, metabolic synthesis of tunicamycin, etc.
- the modified antibodies may contain one or more non- classical amino acids.
- Functional equivalents may be produced by interchanging different CDRs on different chains within different frameworks.
- different classes of antibody are possible for a given set of CDRs by substitution of different heavy chains, whereby, for example, IgGl-4, IgM, IgAl-2, IgD, IgE antibody types and isotypes may be produced.
- artificial antibodies within the scope of the invention may be produced by embedding a given set of CDRs within an entirely synthetic framework.
- an "immunoassay” is an assay that utilizes an antibody to specifically bind to the antigen (i.e. the N-terminal region of A ⁇ s_ x peptide). The immunoassay is thus characterized by detection of specific binding of proteins to antibodies.
- the expressions "specifically binds to”, “specific recognition”, “specifically recognizing”, “specifically reacting with” or “specifically forming an immunological reaction with” refer to a binding reaction by the antibody to the N-terminal region of A ⁇ s_ x peptide, which is determinative of the presence of the N-terminal region of A ⁇ s_ x peptide in the sample tested, in the presence of a heterogeneous population of other proteins and/or other biologies.
- the specificity can be determined by a Luminex assay.
- MFI Mean Fluorescence Intensity
- Immunological methods include but are not limited to fluid or gel precipitation reactions, immunodiffusion (single or double), agglutination assays, immunoelectrophoresis, radioimmunoassays (RIA), enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA), Western blots, liposome immunoassays (Monroe et al., 1986), complement-fixation assays, immunoradiometric assays, fluorescent immunoassays, protein A immunoassays, or immunoPCR.
- An overview of different immunoassays is given in Wild D. (2001) (Wild D. (2001), The Immunoassay Handbook 2 nd edition. Nature Pr., London, UK) and Ghindilis et al. (2002) (Ghindilis A.L., Pavlov A.R., Atanassov P.B. (eds.) (2002) Immunoassay Methods and Protocols. Humana Press, Totowa, NJ, US).
- the specified antibody preferentially binds to a N-terminal region of A ⁇ s_ x peptide of the invention while binding to other proteins or protein iso forms does not occur in significant amounts.
- the specified antibody does not bind to A ⁇ i_4 2 peptide and therefore would not present the severe side effects observed with antibodies against A ⁇ i_4 2 peptide when used for therapeutic purposes (see example 5).
- a response can be an active response induced by administration of immunogen or a passive response induced by administration of antibody or primed T-cells.
- a cellular immune response is elicited by the presentation of polypeptide epitopes in association with Class I or Class II MHC molecules to activated antigen-specific CD4 T helper cells and/or CD8+ cytotoxic T-cells.
- the response may also involve activation of monocytes, macrophages, NK cells, basophils, dendritic cells, astrocytes, microglia cells, eosinophils or components of innate immunity.
- An "immunogenic agent” or “immunogen” is capable of inducing an immunological response directed against itself upon administration to a recipient mammal, optionally in conjunction with an adjuvant.
- said antibody presents a high specificity for the free N- terminal end of A ⁇ 8 - X peptide.
- free N-terminal end refers to an unblocked N-terminal end i.e. an amino-acid having a NH 2 terminal end.
- Antibodies of the invention can be polyclonal having a high specificity or monoclonal having a high specificity.
- said antibody presents a high affinity with respect to A ⁇ s-x peptide.
- affinity refers to the strength of the binding of the antibody to the N- terminal region of A ⁇ s_ x peptide, i.e., how tightly the antibody binds to the N-terminal region of A ⁇ s-x peptide.
- Antibodies of the invention can be polyclonal having a high affinity or monoclonal having a high affinity.
- the affinity of the monoclonal antibody of the invention to the N-terminal region of A ⁇ s-x peptide is determined by the bridging assay test (see example 3). OD values below 1 represent low affinity and above 1 show high affinity of the monoclonals to its target.
- antibodies of the invention can be polyclonal with a high specificity and a high affinity, or monoclonal with a high specificity and a high affinity.
- said antibody specifically target parenchymal amyloid deposits of A ⁇ s_ x peptide in the brain and does not interact with vascular amyloid deposits.
- the induction of an immune response is "active" when an immunogen is administered to induce antibodies or T- cells reactive against the immunogen.
- the induction of an immune response is "passive” when an antibody is administered that itself binds to the N-terminal truncated A ⁇ s_ x peptide in the mammal.
- microhemorrhages One of the side-effects of the passive immunization is the frequency of microhemorrhages. Such increase in the number of microhemorrhages may be explained by the fixation of injected antibodies to the aggregated AB peptides within vessel walls (see example 5).
- the present invention relates to an antibody wherein x is comprised from 15 to 42, in particular a monoclonal antibody.
- the present invention relates to a monoclonal antibody which specifically binds to the N-terminal region of A ⁇ s_ x peptide, wherein the variable region comprises one of the following pairs of amino acid sequences, corresponding respectively to the light and heavy chain:
- Antibody TeiA 1.6 secreted by hybridoma IGH521) Light chain variable region:
- GTSVTVSS (SEQ ID NO : 8)
- SSLTVTAGEKVTMSCf SSQSLFNSGTQTMYiLTWYQQKPGQPPKLLIYWASTR
- an “antibody” refers to a protein consisting of one or more polypeptides substantially encoded by immunoglobulin genes or fragments of immunoglobulin genes.
- the CDR of the light and heavy chain of the variable region of the antibody defined above comprises one of the following amino acid sequences: • Antibody TeiA 1.6 (IGH521 sequence)
- CDR-L2 WASTRDSG (SEQ ID NO : 12)
- CDR of the heavy chain variable region CDR-Hl :
- GPTFSDFYMI SEQ ID NO : 14
- ASRNKANDYTTEYSASVKG (SEQ ID NO : 15)
- CDR of the heavy chain variable region CDR-Hl :
- CDR-H2 TMNKAKGFTTIYSASVKG (SEQ ID NO : 25)
- TSSQSLFNSGTQTMYLT (SEQ ID NO : 32)
- CDR-L2 WASTRESG (SEQ ID NO : 18)
- CDR of the heavy chain variable region CDR-Hl :
- the CDRs of the present invention include not only those completely identical but also variants so long as the specificity to A ⁇ s_ x peptide is maintained. That is, the CDR amino acid sequences in which one or more amino acid residues are modified may also be used as the CDR sequence.
- the modified amino acid residues in the amino acid sequences of the CDR variant are preferably 30% or less, more preferably 20% or less, most preferably 10% or less, within the entire CDR. Therefore, any antibody, fragment, molecule or ligand comprising at least one of the indicated CDR's or homologous sequences can be used.
- the CDRs are of primary importance for epitope recognition and antibody binding.
- changes may be made to the residues that comprise the CDRs without interfering with the ability of the antibody to recognize and bind its cognate epitope. For example, changes that do not affect epitope recognition, yet increase the binding affinity of the antibody for the epitope may be made.
- the antibody sequences described in this invention can be used to develop antibodies which specifically bind to the N-terminal region of A ⁇ s_ x peptide as defined above with improved functions, including improved affinity to the N-terminal region of A ⁇ s_ x peptide .
- Preferred amino acid substitutions are those which: (1) reduce susceptibility to proteolysis, (2) reduce susceptibility to oxidation, (3) alter binding affinity for forming protein complexes, and (4) confer or modify other physico-chemical or functional properties of such analogs.
- Analogs can include various muteins of a sequence other than the naturally- occurring peptide sequence.
- single or multiple amino acid substitutions may be made in the naturally-occurring sequence (preferably in the portion of the polypeptide outside the domain (s) forming intermolecular contacts.
- a conservative amino acid substitution should not substantially change the structural characteristics of the parent sequence (e.g., a replacement amino acid should not tend to break a helix that occurs in the parent sequence, or disrupt other types of secondary structure that characterizes the parent sequence).
- Examples of art-recognized polypeptide secondary and tertiary structures are described in Proteins, Structures and Molecular Principles (Creighton, Ed., W. H. Freeman and Company, New York (1984)); Introduction to Protein Structure (C. Branden and J. Tooze, eds., Garland Publishing, New York, N. Y. (1991)) ; and Thornton et al, 1991, Nature, 354: 105, which are each incorporated herein by reference.
- Improved antibodies also include those antibodies having improved characteristics that are prepared by the standard techniques of animal immunization, hybridoma formation and selection for antibodies with specific characteristics.
- cell lines specifically engineered for production of improved antibodies have altered regulation of the glycosylation pathway, resulting in antibodies which are poorly fucosylated or even totally defucosylated.
- Such cell lines and methods for engineering them are disclosed in e.g. Shinkawa et al (2003, J. Biol. Chem. 278(5): 3466-3473), Ferrara et al (2006, J. Biol Chem. 281(8): 5032-5036; 2006, Biotechnol Bioeng. 93(5): 851-61), EP 1331266, EP 1498490, EP 1498491, EP 1676910, EP 1792987, and WO 99/54342.

- the particular label or detectable group used in the assay is generally not a critical aspect of the invention, so long as it does not significantly interfere with the specific binding of the antibody used in the assay.
- the detectable group can be any material having a detectable physical or chemical property. Such detectable labels have been well developed in the field of immunoassays and, in general, almost any label useful in such methods can be applied to the method of the present invention.
- a label is any composition detectable by spectroscopic, photochemical, biochemical, immunochemical, electrical, optical, radiological or chemical means.

- the label may be coupled directly or indirectly to the desired component of the assay according to methods well known in the art. As indicated above, a wide variety of labels may be used, with the choice of label depending on the sensitivity required, the ease of conjugation with the compound, stability requirements, the available instrumentation and disposal provisions. Non-radioactive labels are often attached by indirect means.
- a ligand molecule e.g. biotin

- a haptenic or antigenic compound can be used in combination with an antibody.
- the antibodies can also be conjugated directly to signal-generating compounds, for example, by conjugation with an enzyme or fluorophore.

- the label is a fluorescent label, it may be detected by exciting the fluorophore with the appropriate wavelength of light and detecting the resulting fluorescence. The fluorescence may be detected visually, by means of a photographic film, by the use of electronic detectors such as charge coupled devices (CCDs) or photomultipliers and the like.

- Example 3 N-truncated 8-specific A ⁇ antibodies and (limited) characterization during cloning
- BaIb-C mice were injected with a mixture of 5 short synthetic A ⁇ peptides (50 ⁇ g per mice KLH-coupled peptides). One mouse died for an unknown reason.
- the peptides correspond to the first eight N-terminal residues of respectively A ⁇ i_s, A ⁇ s. ⁇ , Ap 6-14 , A ⁇ s_i5, and A ⁇ g_i7 (see Table 2).
- the peptides also contained a C-terminal residue for coupling to KLH. After 5 injections titration of the sera was done in a 'coatings assay' of a mixture of peptides.
- Peptides were coated as a streptavidine-biotinylated peptide complex (peptides (IGP-2258, see Table 2) or as a BSA (bovine Serum Albumin)-peptide complex (PG-Nr seeTable 2) and an anti-mouse antibody coupled to HRP (Jackson goat anti-mouse HRP, Cat No 115-035-071) was used for detection. Although titers were low (not shown) a first mouse was sacrificied and a fusion was performed. No specific antibody secreting hybridoma's has been isolated. Therefore sets of mice were boosted with 'modified peptides'. Three mice were injected with the original peptide mixture, two mice were further injected with IGP-2119 KLH-coupled peptide (see Table 2).
- Peptides corresponding to A ⁇ s_i5 were the more immunogenic out of the mixture of five, three additional peptides were thus synthesized.
- DGDGD T-helper epitope
- IGP-2258 Table 2
- a branched peptide containing a C-terminal cysteine for coupling was also synthesized (IGP-2407 (Table X).
- the A ⁇ s_i5 peptide was also coupled to El particles (WO 2004/013172) and used for boosting in the last two mice. Titers were again monitored with a 'coatings-assay' (results not shown). Titers to A ⁇ s-is were indeed improved in the mice boosted with the T-helper peptides and branched peptide and it was decided to use all three surviving mice for fusion. One of the mice boosted with the branched peptide died.
- Spleen of both mice were prepared and fused to SP2/0 cells. After plating, 66 plates ( ⁇ 3000 clones) were screened. During subcloning a limited number of clones, 24, were characterized using the biotinylated peptides IGP-2258 and IGP-2259 in a bridging assay and a Luminex assay.
- BSA coupled peptide IGP-128, PG127 was used to capture one binding site of the antibody and a biotinylated peptide was used to detect the captured antibody in a so-called bridging assay.
- This assay gives an indication on the affinity of the antibody: a high-affinity antibody will give a higher signal than a lower affinity antibody. Indeed 'two classes' of antibodies have been identified.
- a peptide was used which is shifted two amino-acids N-terminal as compared to the A ⁇ 8 _i 5 , the A ⁇ 6 _i3 peptide.
- the biotinylated versions of these peptides are used in order to capture it efficiently to avidin Luminex beads. After washing, the antibodies were revealed by an anti-mouse phyco-erythrine antibody.
- the results presented in Table 3 are raw data expressed as Mean Fluorescence Intensity (MFI). A value below 10 means below background, so for all antibodies tested with 'low affinity' (bridging assay OD ⁇ 1), no reaction on the non-specific peptide (IGP-2259) was observed.
- MFI Mean Fluorescence Intensity
- the 'high-affinity antibody' a small signal was measurable on the non-specific peptide, but with a small difference between the antibodies. From the 'high-affinity' class of antibodies, three antibodies were chosen for subcloning, one IgG2b subtype and two IgGl, while from the 'low affinity' antibodies two IgGl antibodies were selected, resulting in five antibodies for full characterization.
- Table 3 Characterization of the N-truncated 8-specific A ⁇ , TeiA (Truncated eight amyloid), antibodies during cloning. The isotype was determined, reactivity in bridging assay (high OD is indicative for a high affinity) and specificity in a Luminex format on bio-peptides captured on avidin beads. The final subclone that has been used for further characterization is also indicated.
- TeiA antibodies In order to further substantiate the specificity of these TeiA antibodies on A ⁇ , two approaches were taken : (1) 2D gelanalysis of a formic acid extract of a human Alzheimer brain and (2) a mixture of 'full-size' synthetic A ⁇ peptides (Anaspec) differing in their N- terminus used on a SELDI approach (Merchant et al., 2000).
- Example 5 mAb TeiAl.6 (A ⁇ N-trunc8) is specific for parenchymal amyloid deposits and does not recognize vascular amyloid deposits
- microhemorrhages One of the side-effects of the passive immunization is the frequency of microhemorrhages. Such increase in the number of microhemorrhages may be explained by the fixation of injected antibodies to the aggregated AB peptides within vessel walls (Paris et al, 2000; Pfeifer et al., Cerebral Hemorrhage After Passive Anti-AB Immunotherapy, Science
- truncated AB species are also original targets since they are not mainly found in amyloid angiopathy.
- a classical AB antibody labels both parenchymal and vascular amyloid deposits (A, arrows and arrowheads, respectively, 6E10 antibody).
- Example 6 Intracranial administration of N-Truncated eight specific (TeiA) antibodies in transgenic mice lead to a decrease in amyloid plaque burden
- TeiA antibodies were injected in the hippocampus of transgenic mice bearing amyloid plaques in the brain and 7day after administration, cerebral amyloid peptide plaque load was quantified by immunohistochemistry. Briefly, under stereotaxic conditions, 1 or 2 ⁇ g of antibody were injected in the right hippocampus (unilateral injection) in ThyAPP S LxPSlMi46L mice
- the antibodies injected were: two commercial classical AB antibodies (4G8 and 6E10) and the TeiA antibodies TeiA 1.1, 1.6, 1.8 and 2b6.
- amyloid peptide load was calculated in each hemisphere (injected and non-injected) in five different brain subregions [hippocampus, cortical region 1 (dorsal), cortical region 2 (lateral), cortical region 3 (latero -ventral) and thalamic].
- hippocampus cortical region 1 (dorsal), cortical region 2 (lateral), cortical region 3 (latero -ventral) and thalamic.
- quantification was performed semi- automatically with the Mercator ExploraNova system.
- three brain sections were quantified, positioned quite similarly with regard to the injection point: one next to the injection point, one rostral and one caudal to the injection point.
- TeiA antibodies 1.6 and 1.8 decreased brain amyloid load even after short term administration and compare well with classical anti-AB antibodies. It is of interest to note that animals already presented a significant deposition of amyloid at the time of administration, therefore suggesting a therapeutic rather than solely preventive potential for TeiA antibodies.
- TeiA antibodies could therefore provide a good therapeutic effect against amyloid load in Alzheimer Disease patients.
