Human IgG1 monoclonal antibody (mAb) against human TNF-α

Neutralizing monoclonal antibody against human TNF-α
Neutralizing monoclonal antibody against human TNF-α

Anti-hTNF-α-hIgG1 is the biosimilar of the clinical antibody adalimumab. Anti-hTNF-α-hIgG1 a neutralizing monoclonal antibody (mAb) featuring the constant region of the human IgG1 (hIgG1) isotype and the variable region of adalimumab, a fully human therapeutic mAb that targets human tumor necrosis factor-alpha (hTNF-α). The variable region of adalimumab blocks the interaction of soluble and membrane-bound TNF-α with its receptors TFNR1 and TNFR2, thereby downregulating the inflammatory responses [1,2]. 

Anti-hTNF-α-hIgG1 was generated by recombinant DNA technology. It is produced in CHO cells and purified by affinity chromatography with protein G. The neutralizing activity of Anti-hTNF-α-hIgG1 was determined using recombinant human TNF-α and HEK-Blue™ TNF-α cells. TNF-α is a pleiotropic cytokine that notably induces NF-κB-mediated production of pro-inflammatory cytokines [1,2].

Human IgG1 Isotype:

The human IgG1 isotype displays a high binding affinity for the Fc receptor on phagocytic cells and is highly potent for Fc-mediated antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC), antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis (ADCP), and complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC).

Evaluation of hTNF-α inhibition. Increasing concentrations of Anti-hTNF-α-IgG1 were incubated for 30 minutes with the recombinant cytokine hTNF-α (30 pg/ml) before the addition of HEK-Blue™ TNF-α cells. After overnight incubation, SEAP activity in the cell culture supernatant was assessed using QUANTI-Blue™ Solution. Data are shown in percentage (%) of activity.

Details

Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) is a pleiotropic cytokine involved in necrotic and apoptotic cell death, cellular differentiation, inflammation, and regulation of immune cell activity [1]. TNF-α is mainly produced by activated monocytes, macrophages, and T cells. It is first synthesized as a membrane-bound molecule that forms a compact homotrimer through non-covalent interactions. The trimeric membrane-bound form is cleaved by tumor necrosis factor-alpha converting enzyme (TACE) releasing the soluble trimer [2]. Both the membrane-bound and soluble TNF-α bind homotrimeric transmembrane receptors, TNFR1 or TNFR2, triggering signaling pathways that involve TRADD, TRAF2, and RIP, and leading to the activation of NF-κB and MAPK pathways. Importantly, membrane-bound TNF can also mediate a reverse "outside-to-inside" signaling, although this mechanism remains to be fully elucidated [2].
