Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica 2013;48(7):1053-70
Chemotherapy remains one of the major tools, along with surgery, radiotherapy, and more recently targeted therapy, in the war against cancer. There have appeared a plethora of highly potent cytotoxic drugs but the poor discriminability between cancerous and healthy cells of these agents limits their broader application in clinical settings. Therapeutic antibodies have emerged as an important class of biological anticancer agents, thanks to their ability in specific binding to tumor-associated antigens. While this important class of biologics can be used as single agents for the treatment of cancer through antibody-dependent cell cytotoxicity (ADCC), their therapeutical efficacy is often limited. Antitumor antibody drug conjugates (ADCs) combine the target-specificity of monoclonal antibody (mAb) and the highly active cell-killing drugs, taking advantages of the best characteristics out of both components. Thus, insufficiency of most naked mAbs in cancer therapy has been circumvented by arming the immunoglobulin with cytotoxic drugs. Here mAbs are used as vehicles to transport potent payloads to tumor cells. ADCs contain three main components: antibody, linker and cytotoxics (also frequently referred as payload). Antibodies can recognize and specifically bind to the tumor-specific antigens, leading to an antibody-assisted internalization, and payload release. While ADC has demonstrated tremendous success, a number of practical challenges limit the broader applications of this new class of anticancer therapy, including inefficient cellular uptake, low cytotoxicity, and off-target effects. This review article aims to cover recent advances in optimizing linkers with increased stability in circulation while allowing efficient payload release within tumor cells. We also attempt to provide some practical strategies in resolving the current challenges in this attractive research area, particularly to those new to the field.

Objective To investigate the effect of blocking CD40/CD40L costimulatory pathway by the lentiviral vector-mediated RNA interference on the survival of mouse cardiac allograft. Methods Mouse bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (DCs) were infected by CD40-RNAi lentiviral vector in vitro, and tolerogenic DCs (Tol-DCs) with decreased CD40 expression were prepared. Fluorescence real-time quantitative PCR and flow cytometry were used to analyze the expression of CD40 mRNA and DC surface antigens CD40, CD11c, MHC Ⅱ before and after infection. Mouse model of heterotropic abdominal heart transplantation was established. Seven days prior to heart transplantation, Tol-DCs with decreased CD40 expression were transfused into recipient mice intravenously (lentivirus infected DC group). Control group and non-infected DC group were assigned simultaneously. The survival of cardiac allograft was monitored and pathological grade of acute rejection 7 days after heterotropic abdominal heart transplantation was determined. Results The transcription of CD40 mRNA of DCs was down-regulated significantly at 48 h after CD40-RNAi lentiviral vector infection, and the inhibition rate was 80. 9%. The expression of CD40 protein was also significantly decreased as compared with control group (40. 07% ± 4. 03% ) ( P < 0. 05 ).Compared to control group (8 ± 2 days) and non-infected DC group (9 ± 1 days), the survival time of cardiac allograft in CD40-RNAi lentivirus infected DC group (14 ± 4 days) was significantly prolonged (P< 0. 05 ), and the pathological grade of acute rejection decreased significantly ( P < 0. 05 ).Conclusion Blocking CD40/CD40L costimulatory pathway could hamper the activation of allogeneic T lymphocyte, inhibit the acute rejection and prolong the survival of mouse cardiac allograft.

Objective To construct the mouse CD40 RNA interfering(RNAi) lentiviral vector and prepare dendritic cells (DCs) with low expression of CD40. And to explore the mechanism of inducing T lymphocyte incompetence by blocking CD40/CD40L costimulatory pathway. Methods Mouse myeloid DCs were cultured in selective medium containing necessary cytokines for DC growth in vitro. CD40 RNAi gene was transfected into DCs with lentiviral vector. The expression levels of CD40 mRNA and protein were assayed by real-time quantitative PCR and flow cytometry respectively. The influences on DCs stimulating the proliferation ability of T lymphocyte were observed through mixed lymphocyte culture(MLC). Results Myeloid DCs have been harvested from mouse through cell culture in vitro. A mouse CD40 RNAi ientiviral vector was built successfully. The lentiviral titer was 8×10~9 TU/ml. The CD40 mRNA inhibition rate after infection was significantly higher(P<0.05). The CD40 protein expression of DCs was significandy lower(P<0.05). The result of MLC demonstrated that the index of stimulation to T lymphocyte of CD40 RNAi transfected DC significantly decreased compared with non-transfected DC and empty plasmid transfected DC(P< 0.01). Conclusion Large quantity of myeloid DCs with typical histological configuration are obtained through in vitro culture in selective medium which may activate naive T lymphocyte to generate immune response. While DCs were infected by CD40 RNAi lentiviral vector, CD40 protein expression was inhibited significantly. The DCs could hamper the activation of allogeneic T lymphocyte by blocking CD40/CD40L cestimulatory pathway and induce T cell allergy. This will make the good foundation for studying the immune tolerance of CD40 RNAi.

Objective:To investigate the effects of sorafenib on hypoxia inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) levels and recurrence in patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma with microvascular invasion.Methods:Ninety-two patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma who received treatment in Yiwu Central Hospital between November 2013 and November 2019 were included in this study. They were randomly assigned to undergo either conventional basic treatment (control group, n = 46) or conventional basic treatment and sorafenib treatment (study group, n = 46). Clinical efficacy, the incidence of adverse reactions and recurrence rate were compared between the two groups. Before and after treatment, HIF-1, alpha fetoprotein (AFP) and VEGF levels were also compared between the two groups. Results:After treatment, total effective rate in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group [63.04% (29 /46) vs. 28.26% (13/46), χ2 = 11.215, P < 0.05]. After treatment, HIF-1, AFP and VEGF levels in each group were significantly lower than those before treatment (all P > 0.05). After treatment, HIF-1 [(165.23 ± 39.67) pg/mL], AFP [(109.16 ± 67.31) ng/mL] and VEGF [(297.28 ± 42.41) pg/mL] levels in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group [(205.56 ± 40.23) pg/mL, (235.17 ± 106.41) ng/mL, (365.16 ± 40.91) pg/mL, t = 4.841, 6.788, 7.813, all P < 0.05]. There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups ( P > 0.05). Six-month follow-up revealed that the incidence of recurrence in the study group was significantly lower than that in the control group ( χ2 = 4.792, P < 0.05). Conclusion:Sorafenib can reduce the HIF-1, AFP and VEGF levels in patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma with microvascular invasion, improve the clinical efficacy, decrease the incidence of recurrence, but cannot increase the incidence of adverse reactions.
