PEGylation of human interferon-α2b with modified amino acids increases circulation half-life and antiproliferative activity
Interferon-α2b (IFN-α2b) is used as a therapeutic agent against various types of cancer. In the current research, modified forms of human INF-α2b were produced to investigate the effect of amino acid substitutions on binding to the interferon receptor and antiproliferative activity. The resulting modified human IFN-α2b proteins were PEGylated to increase their in vivo circulation half-life. N-terminal PEGylation was performed using mPEG-propionaldehyde succinate (20 and 40 kDa). As a result of these modifications, IFN-α2b with modification R(23)H achieved IC50 at 0.062 ng as compared to wild type IFN-α2b (0.125 ng). PEGylation of IFN-α2b and its modified forms resulted in an increase in hydrodynamic volume and serum retention time (up to 62 h) compared to wild type IFN-α2b (4 h). However, the antiproliferative activities of PEGylated IFN against HepG2 cell line were decreased (up to 4.7%) with an increase in PEGylated IFN-α2b size as compared to the wild type.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Taibah University for Science (JTUSCI) is an international scientific journal for the basic sciences. This journal is produced and published by Taibah University, Madinah, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The scope of the journal is to publish peer reviewed research papers, short communications, reviews and comments as well as the scientific conference proceedings in a special issue. The emphasis is on biology, geology, chemistry, environmental control, mathematics and statistics, nanotechnology, physics, and related fields of study. The JTUSCI now quarterly publishes four issues (Jan, Apr, Jul and Oct) per year. Submission to the Journal is based on the understanding that the article has not been previously published in any other form and is not considered for publication elsewhere.
