In mammals, these functions are mediated by three widely expressed isoforms, TGF- β1, 2, and 3. All three isoforms interact with the same cell surface receptors (TGFBR2 and ALK5) and signal through the same intracellular signaling pathways, which involve either ca- nonical (i.e., SMADs) or noncanonical (i.e., MAPK, JUN, PI3K, PP2A, Rho, PAR6) signaling effectors. In the canonical 10 TGF-β signaling pathway, the signal is propagated from the TGF- β receptor via phosphorylation of cytoplasmic SMAD- 2/3, complex formation with SMAD-4, translocation of the SMAD-2/3/4 complex to the nucleus, and binding to SMAD response elements located in the promoter regions of many genes involved in the fibrogenic response. While the TGF- β isoforms have similar signaling partners, each serves distinct biological functions. The TGF- β isoforms have differences in binding affinities to TGF- β receptors, activation mechanism, signaling intensity or duration, or spatial and/or temporal 15 distribution. [0002] Knockout and conditional deletion models of TGF-β isoforms, receptors, and signaling mediators, as well as function-blocking reagents targeting all TGF- β isoforms, have revealed essential roles for TGF- β in T-cell, cardiac, lung, vascular,and palate development. Mice deficientin TGF- β1 either diein utero, owing to defects inyolk sac vasculogenesis, or survive to adulthood with severe multiorgan autoimmunity. Genetic deletion of TGF-β signaling mediator Smad2 20 reveals that it is essential in early patterning and mesodermal formation. Mice lacking Smad3 are viable and fertile, but exhibit limb malformations, immune dysregulation, colitis, colon carcinomas, and alveolar enlargement. In adult tissues, the TGF-β pathway is involved in the immune, mesenchymal, and epithelial cell interactions to maintain homeostasis in response to environmental stress. [0003] The homeostatic pathways mediated by TGF-β are perturbed in response to chronic repetitive injury. TGF-β 25 is a major profibrogenic cytokine in response to injury, delaying epithelial wound healing. TGF-β inhibits epithelial pro- liferation and migration, promotes apoptosis, and expands the mesenchymal compartment by inducing fibroblast recruit- ment, fibroblast contractility, and extracellular matrix deposition. Intratracheal transfer of adenoviral recombinant TGF- β 1 to the rodent lung dramatically increases fibroblast accumulation and expression of type I and type III collagen around airways and in the pulmonary interstitium. Neutralizing anti-TGF-β antibodies can block bleomycin or radiation-induced 30 pulmonary fibrosis. [0004] Increased TGF-β activity can play a role in fibrotic lung disease, glomerulosclerosis, and restenosis of cardiac vessels, primarily mediated by TGF-β. TGF-β1 function in humans is complex, as indicated by hereditary disorders involving either TGF-β1 itself or its signaling effectors. Mutations that increase the activity of the TGF-β pathway lead to defects in bone metabolism (ie, Camurati-Engelmann disease), in connective tissue (ie, Marfan syndrome), and in 35 aortic aneurysms (ie, Loeys-Dietz syndrome). Mutations that lead to decreased activity of the TGF- β pathway correlate with cancer. The role of TGF-β as a tumor suppressor in cancer is not straightforward, however, because TGF-β can also enhance tumor growth and metastasis. [0005] Despite the multiple essential functions of TGF-β, a single dose or short-term administration of a pan-TGF-β neutralizing antibody is well tolerated. No side effects are observed in rodents at doses that inhibit organ fibrosis or 40 carcinoma cell growth and metastasis. This treatment also effectively inhibits experimental fibrosis. Single-dose phase I/II clinical trials using neutralizing pan-TGF-β antibodies are ongoing for metastatic renal cell carcinoma, melanoma, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (Genzyme Corporation, available at genzyme- clinicalresearch.com). Neurohr et al discloses a murine monoclonal αvβ8-blocking antibody that significantly increases the degree of wound closure by inhibiting TGF- β activation (Am J Respir Cell Mol Biol, Vol 35, pp 252-259, 2006). 45 BRIEF SUMMARY [0006] Provided herein are antibody compositions that can be used for diagnosis and treatment of disorders associated with elevated TGF- β activity mediated by αvβ8. In some embodiments, provided is a humanized antibody that specifically 50 binds αvβ8 integrin, wherein the antibody inhibits release of active, mature TGFβ peptide, but does not significantly inhibit adhesion of latent TGF β to αvβ8 integrin on a αvβ8-expressing cell, and wherein the antibody has a heavy chain variable region of SEQ ID NO:8 and a light chain variable region of SEQ ID NO:9. [0007] The disclosure also provides an isolated antibody that specifically binds αvβ8, wherein the isolated antibody inhibits release of active, mature TGFβ peptide, but does not significantly inhibit adhesion of latent TGFβ to αvβ8 on a 55 αvβ8-expressing cell, and wherein the isolated antibody binds fixedα vβ8-expressing cells (e.g., formalin fixed). The antibody with these activities is referred to as 11E8, which term includes affinity-matured, humanized, chimeric, and labeled versions of the 11E8 antibodies, as well as αvβ8-binding fragments thereof. In some aspects of the disclosure, the isolated antibody specifically binds to an epitope on β8 that is within SEQ ID NO:1.

Sheldrake Received: 22 July 2017; Accepted: 14 August 2017; Published: 23 August 2017 Abstract: Integrins are transmembrane receptors that are central to the biology of many human pathologies. Classically mediating cell-extracellular matrix and cell-cell interaction, and with an emerging role as local activators of TGFβ, they influence cancer, fibrosis, thrombosis and inflammation. Their ligand binding and some regulatory sites are extracellular and sensitive to pharmacological intervention, as proven by the clinical success of seven drugs targeting them. The six drugs on the market in 2016 generated revenues of some US$3.5 billion, mainly from inhibitors of α4-series integrins. In this review we examine the current developments in integrin therapeutics, especially in cancer, and comment on the health economic implications of these developments. Keywords: integrin; therapy; clinical trial; efficacy; health care economics 1. Introduction Integrins are heterodimeric cell-surface adhesion molecules found on all nucleated cells. They integrate processes in the intracellular compartment with the extracellular environment. The 18 α- and 8 β-subunits form 24 different heterodimers each having functional and tissue specificity (reviewed in [1,2]).

    REPRODUCTIONRESEARCH Detection of osteopontin on Holstein bull spermatozoa, in cauda epididymal fluid and testis homogenates, and its potential role in bovine fertilization David W Erikson, Amy L Way1, David A Chapman and Gary J Killian Department of Dairy & Animal Science, John O Almquist Research Center, The Pennsylvania State University, University Park, Pennsylvania 16802, USA and 1Department of Health Science, Lock Haven University, Clearfield Campus, Clearfield, Pennsylvania 16830, USA Correspondence should be addressed to G J Killian; Email: [email protected] Abstract Osteopontin (OPN) is a secreted extracellular matrix phosphoprotein identified in various tissues and fluids including those of the male and female reproductive tracts. OPN was previously identified as a 55 kDa high fertility marker in Holstein bull seminal plasma, produced by the ampulla and the vesicular gland. The objectives of this study were to characterize OPN on ejaculated and cauda epididymal sperm using immunofluorescence and western blot analysis, and to assess the role of sperm OPN in fertilization. Solubilized sperm membrane proteins from ejaculated and cauda epididymal sperm were separated by 1D SDS- PAGE, transferred to nitrocellulose, and probed with an antibody to bovine milk OPN. A 35 kDa protein was detected by this antibody in both ejaculated and cauda epididymal sperm membranes. Analyses also recognized OPN at 55 and 25 kDa in cauda epididymal fluid and testicular parenchyma homogenates respectively. Immunofluorescent analysis of ejaculated and cauda epididymal sperm showed OPN localization in a well-defined band in the postacrosomal region of the sperm head and also on the midpiece. Results of in vitro fertilization experiments showed that sperm treated with an antibody to OPN fertilized fewer oocytes than sperm treated with control medium while increasing incidence of polyspermy, suggesting a role of sperm-associated OPN in fertilization and a block to polyspermy.

Application of light (photobiomodulation, PBM) has been shown to improve wound healing. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of PBM on cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) in diabetic wound healing. Isolated human skin fibroblasts were grouped into a diabetic wounded model. A diode laser at 660 nm with a fluence of 5 J/cm2 was used for irradiation and cells were analysed 48 h post-irradiation. Controls consisted of sham-irradiated (0 J/cm2) cells. Real-time reverse transcription (RT) quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) was used to determine the expression of CAM-related genes. Ten genes were up-regulated in diabetic wounded cells, while 25 genes were down-regulated. Genes were related to transmembrane molecules, cell–cell adhesion, and cell–matrix adhesion, and also included genes related to other CAM molecules. PBM at 660 nm modulated gene expression of various CAMs contributing to the increased healing seen in clinical practice. There is a need for new therapies to improve diabetic wound healing.

We have recently identified a candidate receptor for papillomavirus as the a6 integrin (Evander et al., J. Virol. 71, 2449–2456, 1997). We have further investigated the role the a6 integrin plays in PV binding. Here we show that the cells expressing the a6 integrin, partnered with either the b4 integrin or the b1 integrin, are equally able to bind PV HPV6b L1 virus-like particles, indicating that the beta partner does not play a major role in virus binding. In order to provide definitive evidence that the a6 integrin is required for PV binding we undertook to genetically complement the receptor-negative B-cell line DG75 by expressing the human a6A gene. The transduction of the a6 integrin gene into DG75 cells results in the cell surface expression of the a6 protein and this expression confers upon DG75 cells the ability to bind laminin, a normal ligand for a6 integrin.

  • Syndecan-1 Couples the Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 Receptor to Inside-Out Integrin Activation
    3796 Research Article Syndecan-1 couples the insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor to inside-out integrin activation DeannaLee M. Beauvais and Alan C. Rapraeger* Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, University of Wisconsin-Madison, 1111 Highland Avenue, Madison, WI 53705, USA *Author for correspondence ([email protected]) Accepted 28 July 2010 Journal of Cell Science 123, 3796-3807 © 2010. Published by The Company of Biologists Ltd doi:10.1242/jcs.067645 Summary Syndecan-1 (Sdc1) engages and activates the avb3 (and/or avb5) integrin when clustered in human carcinoma and endothelial cells. Although the engagement is extracellular, the activation mechanism is cytoplasmic. This talin-dependent, inside-out signaling pathway is activated downstream of the insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF1R), whose kinase activity is triggered by Sdc1 clustering. In vitro binding assays using purified receptors suggest that association of the Sdc1 ectodomain with the integrin provides a ‘docking face’ for IGF1R. IGF1R docking and activation of the associated integrin is blocked by synstatin (SSTN92–119), a peptide derived from the integrin engagement site in Sdc1. IGF1R colocalizes with avb3 integrin and Sdc1 in focal contacts, but fails to associate with or activate the integrin in cells either lacking Sdc1 or expressing Sdc1D67–121, a mutant that is unable to form the Sdc1–integrin–IGF1R ternary complex. Integrin activation is also blocked by IGF1R inhibitors or by silencing IGF1R or talin expression with small- interfering RNAs (siRNAs). In both cases, expression of the constitutively active talin F23 head domain rescues integrin activation. We recently reported that SSTN92–119 blocks angiogenesis and impairs tumor growth in mice, therefore this Sdc1-mediated integrin regulatory mechanism might be a crucial regulator of disease processes known to rely on these integrins, including tumor cell metastasis and tumor-induced angiogenesis.
