E TNF Superfamily Linking Autoimmune Diseases, TNF Inflammation and Cancer

THE Adipogen's Team has 15 years of experience in manufacturing TNF superfamily reagents. This expertise has been acquired by an established long-term collaboration with renowned labs of key players in the field including Professor Jürg Tschopp, who first cloned the TNF superfamily ligands BAFF and APRIL. The (TNF) superfamily (TNFSF) is composed of 19 structurally related (ligands) that bind to one or more molecules from the TNF receptor superfamily (TNFRSF), a family of 30 structurally similar receptors. The TNFSF ligands are either membrane-anchored or soluble trimers that cluster their cognate cell surface receptors to initiate signal transduction. The unique structural features of the TNFSF ligands and receptors link these molecules to cell growth, cell survival or cell death, although some molecules can activate both inflammatory and cell death pathways, dependent on target cell types and other extrinsic stimuli. Many of the TNFRSF molecules are expressed in cells of the immune system, which implies that they may be central to autoimmune and inflammatory diseases as well as cancer. However, their function is not restricted to immune cells, members of these superfamilies have been linked to an array of pathophysiologies, including cancer, neurologic diseases, cardiovascular diseases, pulmonary diseases, autoimmune diseases and metabolic diseases. TNFSF and TNFRSF have been found to display polymorphisms that are linked to human diseases, which implies that interventions targeting these molecules may be efficacious in treating several health-related problems. Therefore, it is not surprising that several biologics targeting TNFSF and TNFRSF molecules are in ongoing clinical trials for autoimmune and inflammatory diseases and cancer.

CD40 is constitutive- a broad variety of immune and inflammatory responses in- ly expressed by antigen presenting cells, including dendritic cluding -dependent immunoglobulin class switching, cells, B cells and macrophages.

CD40L levels are increased in serum and duced microglial activation, and thus is thought to be an early in inflamed tissues of patients with autoimmune diseases.

MegaLigands

MegaLigands are high activity constructs in which two trimeric TNFSF ligands are artificially linked via the oligo- meric collagen domain of ACRP30. MegaCD40L is a potent B cell activator. MegaCD40L very effectively mimics the natural membrane-assisted aggregation of CD40L. It is the most potent alternative to activate CD40 with the advantage that no oligomerization reagent (enhancer) is required.

izTRAIL Oligomerized TRAIL protein non-toxic to hepatocytes, suitable for in vitro and in vivo use. izTRAIL is a highly active recombinant form of soluble human TRAIL. Due to a trimerizing N-terminal isoleucine zipper (iz) motif the intrinsic trimerization of TRAIL, required for apoptosis-inducing activity of TRAIL, is enhanced when compared to non-tagged soluble human TRAIL (shTRAIL). Therefore, izTRAIL is a potent inducer of apoptosis in many human cancer cells, but not normal human hepatocytes. In addition, the half-life of izTRAIL is about eight-fold higher than the half-life of shTRAIL. These properties render izTRAIL highly suitable for both, in vitro and in vivo use, particularly for studies in which investigators plan to transfer their in vitro results into an in vivo system with human cancer cells in xenotransplant settings FIGURE: Apoptosis of TRAIL-sensitive tumor cells.

BAFF (BLyS; THANK; CD257) is mainly produced by innate together with IL-6, promotes Ig class-switching and plasma immune cells such as neutrophils, monocytes, macrophages, cell differentiation. Besides its major role in B cell biology, dendritic cells, follicular dendritic cells. T cells, activated B BAFF co-stimulates activated T cells. Deregulated expression cells, some malignant B cells and also non-lymphoid cells like of BAFF leads to autoimmune disorders in mice. In humans, astrocytes, synoviocytes and epithelial cells can also produce elevated levels of soluble BAFF have been detected in the BAFF. BAFF binds three distinct receptors (BAFF-R (CD268), serum of patients with various autoimmune diseases such TACI (CD267) and BCMA (CD269)) expressed predominantly as Sjoegren syndrome, Rheumatoid arthritis (RA), Multiple on B cells, although activated T cells also express BAFF-R. sclerosis (MS) and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). BAFF BAFF is a master regulator of peripheral B cell survival, and has also increased levels in some lymphoid cancers.

Recombinant Proteins 1 Processed human BAFF can either remain as a trimer, which is usual for TNF family ligands, or assemble into 60-mer composed of 20

trimers. Mouse BAFF 60-mer has been identified in the serum of BAFF nm 490 OD transgenic mice. Despite the predominant functional role of processed BAFF in vivo, membrane-bound BAFF might also play a role.
