A new disulfide-stabilized diabody against bFGF and the inhibition of cancer

A
ngiogenesis plays a critical role in tumor growth. Fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) is one of the most important
angiogenic factors. The over-expression of bFGF plays a crucial role to promote tumor growth, progression and metastasis.
Neutralizing antibodies against FGF-2 may suppress the growth of tumor cells by blocking the FGF-2 signaling pathway. In
our lab, we scanned human anti-bFGF antibody from the phage antibody library. The results showed that the human anti-
bFGF antibody could significantly inhibit the tumor angiogenesis and inhibit the tumor growth and migration. Based on
this antibody, a newly small molecular antibody of disulfide-stabilized diabody (ds-Diabody) against bFGF was constructed
by site-directed mutation and overlap extension PCR (SOE-PCR) at the position of VH44 and VL100 in the scFv. The ds-
Diabody was expressed in
Pichia pastoris
system. We found that the ds-Diabody against bFGF could maintain good antigen
binding activity and stability
in vitro
and
in vivo
. The ds-Diabody against bFGF could efficiently suppress the proliferation,
migration and invasion of human lung cancer (A549 cells) and breast cancer (MCF-7 cells), inhibit bFGF-induced activation
of downstream signaling regulators, phospho-Akt and phospho- MAPK. In the nude mouse xenograft model, the ds-Diabody
against bFGF could significantly inhibit tumor growth, tumor angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis. The ds-Diabody against
bFGF showed stability
in vivo
and could more effectively suppress the tumor growth through blockade of bFGF signaling
pathway and inhibition of tumor angiogenesis, which may make it a potential therapeutic candidate antibody drug for human
lung cancer therapy.
