  • Patent number: 11155641
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a cytosol-penetrating antibody and the use thereof, and more specifically to identification of a structural mechanism that induces escape from endosomes into the cytosol after cellular internalization into living cells through a cell membrane protein, a light-chain variable region and/or heavy-chain variable region, which is based on this identification and has a significantly improved ability to escape from endosomes into the cytosol, a cytosol-penetrating antibody comprising the same, a method for producing the same, and the use thereof.

  • Publication number: 20200385428
    Abstract: Presented herein are cyclic peptides that specifically bind to a cell surface molecule, thereby allowing cell/tissue-specific targeting. The cyclic peptides can be attached to an agent, for example, a polypeptide such as an antibody, e.g., a cell-penetrating antibody. Cyclic peptide-containing cell/tissue-specific cell-penetrating antibodies described herein are capable of targeted delivery in a cell type-specific or tissue-specific (i.e., cell/tissue-specific) manner. The cell/tissue-specific cell-penetrating antibodies described herein can be used as an effective anticancer agent for cancer that overexpresses a cell membrane protein that specifically binds to the fused cyclic peptides.

  • Patent number: 10851177
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for inhibiting intracellular activated (GTP-bound) RAS using an intact immunoglobulin-type antibody having the ability to penetrate the cytosol, and to the use thereof. The disclosure further relates to a heavy-chain variable region (VH) which induces an intact immunoglobulin-type antibody to penetrate the cytosol and bind to activated RAS in the cytosol, and to an antibody comprising the same. The disclosure correspondingly provides a method for inhibiting the growth of cancer or tumor cells using the antibody, and a method for treating cancer or tumor.

  • Patent number: 10844136
    Abstract: A method is described of localizing an intact immunoglobulin-format antibody in cytosol by permeating the cell membrane, thereby avoiding the necessity to use a special external protein delivery system. The method achieves high effects on the treatment and diagnosis of tumor and disease-related factors that show structurally complex interactions through a wide and flat surface between protein and protein.

  • Publication number: 20170218084
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of localizing an intact immunoglobulin-format antibody in cytosol by permeating membrane of cells. The present invention also relates to a light-chain variable region (VL) that induces an intact immunoglobulin-format antibody to penetrate the membrane of living cells and be localized in the cytosol, and to an antibody comprising the same. The present invention also relates to a biologically active molecule fused to the antibody and selected from the group consisting of peptides, proteins, small-molecule drugs, nanoparticles and liposomes. The present invention also relates to a composition for prevention, treatment or diagnosis of cancer, comprising: the antibody; or a biological active molecule fused to the antibody and selected from the group consisting of peptides, proteins, small-molecule drugs, nanoparticles and liposomes. The present invention also relates to a polynucleotide that encodes the light-chain variable region and the antibody.
