P-Selectin Glycoprotein Ligand-1 as a Potential Target for Humoral Immunotherapy of Multiple Myeloma (Supplementry Material)
2009
Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), successfully adopted in the treatment of several haematological malignancies, have proved almost ineffective in multiple myeloma (MM), because of the lack of an appropriate antigen for targeting and killing MM cells. Here, we demonstrate that PSGL1, the major ligand of P-Selectin, a marker of plasmacytic differentiation expressed at high levels on normal and neoplastic plasma cells, may represent a novel target for mAb-mediated MM immunotherapy. The primary effectors of mAb-induced cell-death, complement-mediated lysis (CDC) and antibody-dependent cellmediated cytotoxicity (ADCC), were investigated using U266B1 and LP1 cell-lines as models. Along with immunolog…

(p-Sulfomethyl)phenylalanine as a mimic of O-sulfatyl-tyrosine in synthetic partial sequences of P-Selectin glycoprotein ligand 1 (PSGL-1)
2007
Abstract Fmoc- l -( p -sulfomethyl)phenylalanine, a bioisosteric mimic of acid-sensitive O -sulfatyl tyrosine, was synthesized from l -tyrosine according to a novel route. Partial sequences of the recognition site of P-Selectin glycoprotein ligand 1 (PSGL-1), which contain (sulfomethyl)phenylalanine were synthesized on solid-phase. By fragment condensation, a sialyl Lewis x peptide conjugate containing a (sulfomethyl)phenylalanine mimic of O -sulfatyl tyrosine was prepared without destruction of the acid-sensitive fucoside bond within the saccharide side chain. Compounds of this type are of interest as sufficiently acid-stable potential inhibitors of P-Selectin in inflammatory processes.
Sulfated and Non-Sulfated Glycopeptide Recognition Domains of P-Selectin Glycoprotein Ligand 1 and their Binding to P- and E-Selectin
2009
Total synthesis through block glycosylation and selective chemical O-sulfation of tyrosine residues yielded the glycopeptide recognition domain A (X=SO(3) (-)) of the P-selectin glycoprotein ligand 1, in which the terminal sialic acid of the complex hexasaccharide side chain was replaced by (S)-cyclohexyl lactic acid. In binding assays the O-sulfated structure A showed high affinity towards P-selectin, the non-sulfated towards E-selectin.
