Role of sialylation in determining the pharmacokinetics of neutrophil inhibitory factor (NIF) in the Fischer 344 rat

Abstract: 1. Recombinant neutrophil inhibitory factor (NIF) is a glycoprotein. Its amino acid sequence remains constant and has a molecular weight of 28.9 kD. However, approximately 40% of the total molecular weight consists of glycans with variable structure. 2. The pharmacokinetics of 11 different NIF batches with varying extents and patterns of sialylation have been investigated in the Fischer 344 rat following intravenous administration. These data indicate that reducing the extent of NIF sialylation reduces the hal… Show more

“…Consequently, glycosylation improved the pharmaceutical properties of GLP-1, because the liver is one of the major organs to metabolize and excrete exogenous GLP-1 5,9 , and DPP-IV is abundant in hepatocytes 31 .Our results were consistent with previous reports 29,30 . In the case of recombinant neutrophil inhibitory factor (NIF), which is a glycoprotein with a mean molecular weight of 41 kDa, an increase in the number of sialylation reduces hepatic extraction of NIF 29 .…”

“…In the case of recombinant neutrophil inhibitory factor (NIF), which is a glycoprotein with a mean molecular weight of 41 kDa, an increase in the number of sialylation reduces hepatic extraction of NIF 29 . In addition, the sialic acid moiety contributes to an optimal inhibition of hepatic extraction of liposome 30 .…”

“…Although we do not have direct data demonstrating the presence or binding to a receptor in Kupffer cells, there are many previous studies demonstrating the presence of various lectin receptors on hepatocytes, Kupffer cells, and endothelial cells that internalize and degrade glycoproteins or cells bearing terminal sugar moieties. An ASGP receptor has been reported on liver hepatocytes (Ashwell and Harford, 1982;Matsuura et al, 1982;Steer et al, 1983;Webster et al, 1999), and there has also been evidence that a similar ASGP receptor is associated with Kupffer cells (Kolb-Bachofen et al, 1982;Ii et al, 1990;Ozaki et al, 1992). The mannose/ N-GlcNAc receptor has been described previously as being associated with sinusoidal/Kupffer cells, but no binding has been reported with glycoproteins bearing terminal GalNAcGal residues such as those in BR3-Fc (Ashwell and Harford, 1982).…”

“…Sialylation on fragment variable (Fv) glycans may be important for binding to the target antigen, affecting the efficacy of the protein (103). In non-immunoglobulins, sialylation is often a key determinant of the PK profile, acting as a cap on terminal galactose residues that are responsible for protein clearance via binding to the asialoglycoprotein receptor (104). Further, additional sialylation has also been shown to extend the PK half-life of smaller proteins (105).…”
