However, the development of effective lysosome-targeted degradation platforms for achieving selective protein degradation in tumors remains a substantial challenge. Cancer cells depend on certain solute carrier (SLC) transporters to acquire extracellular nutrients to sustain their metabolism and growth. This current study exploits facilitative glucose transporters (GLUTs), a group of SLC transporters widely overexpressed in numerous types of cancer, to drive the endocytosis and lysosomal degradation of target proteins in tumor cells. GLUT-targeting chimeras (GTACs) were generated by conjugating multiple glucose ligands to an antibody specific for the target protein. We demonstrate that the constructed GTACs can induce the internalization and lysosomal degradation of the extracellular and membrane proteins streptavidin, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2). Compared with the parent antibody, the GTAC exhibited higher potency in inhibiting the growth of tumor cells in vitro and enhanced tumor-targeting capacity in a tumor-bearing mouse model. Thus, the GTAC platform represents a novel degradation strategy that harnesses an SLC transporter for tumor-selective depletion of secreted and membrane proteins of interest.</p>","PeriodicalId":11,"journal":{"name":"ACS Chemical Biology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142386348","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Unlike the related Ca<sup>2+</sup> imaging, voltage imaging provides a direct visualization of bioelectricity changes. We have been exploring the use of sulfonated silicon rhodamine dyes (Berkeley Red Sensor of Transmembrane potential, BeRST) for voltage imaging. In this study, we explore the effect of converting BeRST to diEt BeRST, by replacing the dimethyl aniline of BeRST with a diethyl aniline group. The new dye, diEt BeRST, has a voltage sensitivity of 40% Δ<i>F</i>/<i>F</i> per 100 mV, a 33% increase compared to the original BeRST dye, which has a sensitivity of 30% Δ<i>F</i>/<i>F</i> per 100 mV. In neurons, the cellular brightness of diEt BeRST is about 20% as bright as that of BeRST, which may be due to the lower solubility of diEt BeRST (300 μM) compared to that of BeRST (800 μM). Despite this lower cellular brightness, diEt BeRST is able to record spontaneous and evoked action potentials from multiple neurons simultaneously and in single trials. Far-red excitation and emission profiles enable diEt BeRST to be used alongside existing fluorescent indicators of cellular physiology, like Ca<sup>2+</sup>-sensitive Oregon Green BAPTA. In hippocampal neurons, simultaneous voltage and Ca<sup>2+</sup> imaging reveals neuronal spiking patterns and frequencies that cannot be resolved with traditional Ca<sup>2+</sup> imaging methods.

These include mechanisms of targeted protein degradation and immune clearance of pathogenic cells. Heterobifunctional \"chimeric\" compounds like Proteolysis TArgeting Chimeras (PROTACs) and Antibody Recruiting Molecules (ARMs) leverage these mechanisms, respectively. Both systems function through the formation of reversible \"ternary\" or higher-order biomolecular complexes. Critical to function are key parameters, such as bifunctional molecule affinity for endogenous proteins, target residence time, and turnover. To probe the mechanism and enhance function, covalent chemical approaches have been developed to kinetically stabilize ternary complexes. These include electrophilic PROTACs and Covalent Immune Recruiters (CIRs), the latter designed to uniquely enforce cell-cell induced proximity. Inducing cell-cell proximity is associated with key challenges arising from a combination of steric and/or mechanical based destabilizing forces on the ternary complex. These factors can attenuate the formation of ternary complexes driven by high affinity bifunctional/proximity inducing molecules. This Account describes initial efforts in our lab to address these challenges using the CIR strategy in antibody recruitment or receptor engineered T cell model systems of cell-cell induced proximity. ARMs form ternary complexes with serum antibodies and surface protein antigens on tumor cells that subsequently engage immune cells via Fc receptors. Binding and clustering of Fc receptors trigger immune cell killing of the tumor cell. We applied the CIR strategy to convert ARMs to covalent chimeras, which \"irreversibly\" recruit serum antibodies to tumor cells. These covalent chimeras leverage electrophile preorganization and kinetic effective molarity to achieve fast and selective covalent engagement of the target ternary complex protein, e.g., serum antibody. Importantly, covalent engagement can proceed via diverse binding site amino acids beyond cysteine. Covalent chimeras demonstrated striking functional enhancements compared to noncovalent ARM analogs in functional immune assays. We revealed this enhancement was in fact due to the increased kinetic stability &lt;i&gt;and not&lt;/i&gt; concentration, of ternary complexes. This finding was recapitulated using analogous CIR modalities that integrate peptidic or carbohydrate binding ligands with Sulfur(VI) Fluoride Exchange (SuFEx) electrophiles to induce cell-cell proximity. Mechanistic studies in a distinct model system that uses T cells engineered with receptors that recognize covalent chimeras or ARMs, revealed covalent receptor engagement uniquely enforces downstream activation signaling.
