    Abstract Phage display technology is an emerging drug discovery tool. Using that approach, short peptides that mimic part of a carbohydrate's conformation are selected by screening a peptide-displaying phage library with anti-carbohydrate antibodies. Chemically synthesized peptides with an identified sequence have been used as an alternative ligand to carbohydrate-binding proteins. These peptides represent research tools useful to assay the activities of glycosyltransferases and/or sulfotransferases or to inhibit the carbohydrate-dependent binding of proteins in vitro and in vivo. Peptides can also serve as immunogens to raise anti-carbohydrate antibodies in vivo in animals. Phage display has also been used in single-chain antibody technology by inserting an immunoglobulin's variable region sequence into the phage. A single-chain antibody library can then be screened with a carbohydrate antigen as the target, resulting in a recombinant anti-carbohydrate antibody with high affinity to the antigen. This review provides examples of successful applications of peptide-displaying phage technology to glycobiology. Such an approach should benefit translational research by supplying carbohydrate-mimetic peptides and carbohydrate-binding polypeptides.

    Abstract Efficient delivery of subunit vaccines to dendritic cells (DCs) is necessary to improve vaccine efficacy, because the vaccine antigen alone cannot induce sufficient protective immunity. Here, we identified DC-targeting peptides using a phage display system and demonstrated the potential of these peptides as antigen-delivery carriers to improve subunit vaccine effectiveness in mice. The fusion of antigen proteins and peptides with DC-targeting peptides induced strong antigen-specific IgG responses, even in the absence of adjuvants. In addition, the DC-targeting peptide improved the distribution of antigens to DCs and antigen presentation by DCs. The combined use of an adjuvant with a DC-targeting peptide improved the effectiveness of the vaccine. Furthermore, nucleolin, located on the DC surface, was identified as the receptor for DC-targeting peptide, and nucleolin was indispensable for the vaccine effect of the DC-targeting peptide. Overall, the findings of this study could be useful for developing subunit vaccines against infectious diseases.

    Abstract Peptide-displaying phage technology has numerous applications. Using a specificity-defined monoclonal anti-carbohydrate antibody, we can identify a series of short peptides that mimic the binding specificity of a specific carbohydrate. This chapter introduces pioneering work applying phage display technology to the glycobiology field, presents a step-by-step protocol for phage library screening, and provides useful hints for evaluating results including false positives, all of which should contribute to successful cloning. Thus, biopanning using a monoclonal antibody as the target is described in detail. Because peptides are useful alternatives to carbohydrate ligands, their potential use as structural or functional mimics of carbohydrate-binding proteins is discussed.

    Abstract The process of human embryo implantation is mediated not only by evolutionarily conserved mechanisms but by activities unique to humans. Among the latter, evidence suggests that the cell adhesion molecule trophinin plays a unique role in human embryo implantation. Here, we describe characteristics of trophinin protein and of the trophinin-associated proteins bystin and tastin. We then describe trophinin-mediated signal transduction in trophectoderm cells during human embryo implantation and events related to human sperm tail motility. We also report dual roles for trophinin in human cancers in terms of promoting malignancy in some tumor types and suppressing it in others.

    Abstract The process of human embryo implantation is mediated not only by evolutionarily conserved mechanisms, but also by a mechanism unique to humans. Evidence suggests that the cell adhesion molecules, L-selectin and trophinin, play a unique role in human embryo implantation. Here, we describe the dual roles of mucin carbohydrate ligand for L-selectin and trophinin protein and of the trophinin-associated proteins bystin and tastin. We then describe trophinin-mediated signal transduction in trophectoderm cells and endometrial epithelial cells. This review also covers cadherin and integrin in human embryo implantation.

    Abstract We previously reported that IF7 peptide, which binds to the annexin A1 (ANXA1) N-terminus, functions as a tumor vasculature-targeted drug delivery vehicle after intravenous injection. To enhance IF7 stability in vivo, we undertook mirror-image peptide phage display using a synthetic D-peptide representing the ANXA1 N-terminus as target. We then identified peptide sequences, synthesized them as D-amino acids, and designated the resulting peptide dTIT7, which we showed bound to the ANXA1 N-terminus. Whole body imaging of mouse brain tumor models injected with near infrared fluorescent IRDye-conjugated dTIT7 showed fluorescent signals in brain and kidney. Furthermore, orally-administered dTIT7/geldanamycin (GA) conjugates suppressed brain tumor growth. Ours is a proof-of-concept experiment showing that ANXA1-binding D-peptide can be developed as an orally-administrable tumor vasculature-targeted therapeutic.

    Abstract Objectives: To evaluate the expression of annexin A1 protein in patients with renal cell carcinoma.
    Methods: Annexin A1 expression was examined in renal cell carcinoma specimens from 27 patients, and their disease-free survival was analyzed using the log-rank test. Annexin A1 knockdown in the human renal cell carcinoma cell line Caki-1 was carried out, and its proliferation, invasion, motility and adhesion were compared with those of control cells.
    Results: In 13 out of 27 patients, annexin A1 was highly expressed in the membrane of renal cell carcinoma tumor cells, whereas in the rest of the patients, annexin A1 expression was weak or negligible in the membrane of those cells. Patients with high annexin A1 expression had significantly poorer disease-free survival than those with weak or negligible annexin A1 expression (P = 0.031). In the renal cell carcinoma cell line, annexin A1 knockdown cells showed significantly decreased proliferation, invasion, motility and adhesion relative to control cells, and expressed lower relative levels of membrane-type 1 matrix metalloproteinase and hypoxia-inducible factor 1-alpha transcripts, showing a potential pathway regulated by annexin A1.
    Conclusion: Annexin A1 is associated with renal cell carcinoma malignant potential and could serve as a marker of poor prognosis.
