Human alphavbeta3 integrin potency and specificity of TA138 and its DOTA conjugated form (89)Y-TA138.
The present study was undertaken to define the alphavbeta3-binding potency and specificity of TA138, a nonpeptide integrin antagonist, and its conjugated form, 89Y-TA138. Various integrin-specific binding and functional assays as well as cell-adhesion assays were used to determine the potency and integrin specificity for TA138 and 89Y-TA138. Both TA138 and 89Y-TA138 inhibited alphavbeta3-mediated [125I]echistatin binding to 293-beta3-transfected cells, with IC50 values of 0.046 and 0.059 microM, respectively, and IC50 values of 0.012 and 0.018 microM, respectively, in inhibiting an alphavbeta3 integrin-mediated 293-beta3-transfected cell adhesion to fibrinogen. TA138 inhibited human umbilical vein endothelial cell adhesion to fibrinogen, with an IC50 value of 0.052 +/- 0.006 microM. Both TA138 and 89Y-TA138 demonstrated a relatively high degree of specificity for human alphavbeta3 integrin as compared with other human integrins, including alphavbeta5, alphaIIbbeta3, and alpha5beta1 (IC50 > 10 microM). Both 89Y-TA138 and TA138 demonstrated comparable alphavbeta3 affinity and specificity as compared with other closely related human integrins such as alphavbeta5, alphaIIbbeta3, or alpha5beta1.[1]References
