DT270‐326, a Truncated Diphtheria Toxin, Increases Blood–Tumor Barrier Permeability by Upregulating the Expression of Caveolin‐1

Abstract: DT(270-326) might provide a novel strategy to increase the delivery of macromolecular therapeutic agents across the BTB.

“…Analysis of cell viability was performed as preciously described . Cell survival was evaluated by a nonradioactive cell counting kit (CCK‐8) assay according to the manufacture's instruction, and the fluorescence was measured using a Tecan Infinity M200 plate reader (Tecan Group, Morrisville, NC, USA).…”

“…Despite extensive resection and a combination of chemo‐ and radiotherapy, the median survival of GBM patients is only 15 months . Caveolae are organelles of the plasma membrane in various types of human cells that play a crucial physiological role in the regulation of various cellular functions, including endocytosis, cell signaling, membrane trafficking, and lipid regulation . Caveolar coat components include two major protein families, cavins and caveolins .…”

“…The tumor-cell specificity of DT386F-endoNA2 was based on two mechanisms of recognition: polysialic acid-binding via the non-catalytic endosialidase portion (22) and binding to the surface of cancer cells via the "receptorless" toxin (38). For the latter, the underlying mechanisms are not known but have been suggested to include pH-dependent membrane insertion of the translocation domain that is induced by extracellular acidification near cancer cell surfaces (41), or interaction of the translocation domain with caveolin-1 (42). Most importantly, DT386F-endoNA2 did not show toxicity toward normal polysialic acidnegative cells while the toxin conjugate exhibited a drastic induction of apoptosis in neuroblastoma cells.…”
