The theranostics system comprises a novel 89Zr-labeled drug delivery system (DDS), derived from the novel biodegradable polymeric micelle, “Lactosome” nanoparticles conjugated with specific shortened IgG variant, and aims to successfully deliver therapeutically effective molecules, such as the apoptosis-inducing small interfering RNA (siRNA) intracellularly while offering simultaneous tumor visualization via PET imaging. A 27 kDa-human single chain variable fragment (scFv) of IgG to establish clinically applicable PET imaging and theranostics in cancer medicine was fabricated to target mesothelin (MSLN), a 40 kDa-differentiation-related cell surface glycoprotein antigen, which is frequently and highly expressed by malignant tumors. This system coupled with the cell penetrating peptide (CPP)-modified and photosensitizer (e.g., 5, 10, 15, 20-tetrakis (4-aminophenyl) porphyrin (TPP))-loaded Lactosome particles for photochemical internalized (PCI) driven intracellular siRNA delivery and the combination of 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) photodynamic therapy (PDT) offers a promising nano-theranostic-based cancer therapy via its targeted apoptosis-inducing feature. This review focuses on the combined advances in nanotechnology and material sciences utilizing the “89Zr-labeled CPP and TPP-loaded Lactosome particles” and future directions based on important milestones and recent developments in this platform. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=LimMelissa Siaw Han en-aut-sei=Lim en-aut-mei=Melissa Siaw Han kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=OhtsukiTakashi en-aut-sei=Ohtsuki en-aut-mei=Takashi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=TakenakaFumiaki en-aut-sei=Takenaka en-aut-mei=Fumiaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=KobayashiKazuko en-aut-sei=Kobayashi en-aut-mei=Kazuko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=AkehiMasaru en-aut-sei=Akehi en-aut-mei=Masaru kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=UjiHirotaka en-aut-sei=Uji en-aut-mei=Hirotaka kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=KobuchiHirotsugu en-aut-sei=Kobuchi en-aut-mei=Hirotsugu kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=SasakiTakanori en-aut-sei=Sasaki en-aut-mei=Takanori kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=OzekiEiichi en-aut-sei=Ozeki en-aut-mei=Eiichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= en-aut-name=MatsuuraEiji en-aut-sei=Matsuura en-aut-mei=Eiji kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=10 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Department of Cell Chemistry, Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry, and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Okayama University kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=Department of Interdisciplinary Science and Engineering in Health Systems, Okayama University kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil=Collaborative Research Centre for OMIC, Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry, and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Okayama University kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil=Collaborative Research Centre for OMIC, Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry, and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Okayama University kn-affil= affil-num=5 en-affil=Collaborative Research Centre for OMIC, Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry, and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Okayama University kn-affil= affil-num=6 en-affil=Department of Material Chemistry, Graduate School of Engineering, Kyoto University kn-affil= affil-num=7 en-affil=Department of Cell Chemistry, Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry, and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Okayama University kn-affil= affil-num=8 en-affil=Collaborative Research Centre for OMIC, Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry, and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Okayama University kn-affil= affil-num=9 en-affil=Technology Research Laboratory, Shimadzu Corporation kn-affil= affil-num=10 en-affil=Department of Cell Chemistry, Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry, and Pharmaceutical Sciences, Okayama University kn-affil= en-keyword=theranostics kn-keyword=theranostics en-keyword=single chain variable fragment of IgG (scFv) kn-keyword=single chain variable fragment of IgG (scFv) en-keyword=drug delivery system (DDS) kn-keyword=drug delivery system (DDS) en-keyword=photodynamic therapy (PDT) kn-keyword=photodynamic therapy (PDT) en-keyword=PET imaging kn-keyword=PET imaging en-keyword=accelerated blood clearance (ABC) kn-keyword=accelerated blood clearance (ABC) en-keyword=cell penetrating peptide (CPP) kn-keyword=cell penetrating peptide (CPP) en-keyword=siRNA kn-keyword=siRNA en-keyword=ATP-binding cassette subfamily G member 2 (ABCG2) kn-keyword=ATP-binding cassette subfamily G member 2 (ABCG2) END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=6 cd-vols= no-issue=6 article-no= start-page=e04114 end-page= dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2020 dt-pub=20200608 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Rapid and specific detection of oxidized LDL/β2GPI complexes via facile lateral flow immunoassay en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=β2-Glycoprotein I (β2GPI) forms indissociable complex with oxidized LDL (oxLDL) into proatherogenic oxLDL/β2GPI complex through a specific ligand known as 7-ketocholesteryl-9-carboxynonanoate (oxLig-1). Recent discoveries have demonstrated the atherogenicity of these complexes in patients of both systemic and non-systemic autoimmune diseases. Hence, serological level of oxLDL/β2GPI complexes may represent one crucial clinical parameter for disease prognosis of atherosclerosis-related diseases. Herein, we established a simple, specific and rapid gold nanoparticle (GNP) based lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) to quantify oxLDL/β2GPI complexes from test samples. Specificities of hybridoma cell-derived monoclonal antibodies against antigen, optimal conditions for conjugation of antibody with GNP, and sensitivity of oxLDL/β2GPI LFIA in comparison to an ELISA-based detection method were assessed accordingly. The established oxLDL/β2GPI LFIA was capable of detecting oxLDL/β2GPI specifically without interference from autoantibodies and solitary components of oxLDL/β2GPI present in test samples. A significant correlation (R2 > 0.8) was also obtained with the oxLDL/β2GPI LFIA when compared to the ELISA-based detection. On the whole, the oxLDL/β2GPI LFIA remains advantageous over the oxLDL/β2GPI ELISA. The unnecessary washing step, short developmental and analytical time support facile and rapid detection of oxLDL/β2GPI as opposed to the laborious ELISA system. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=TanXian Wen en-aut-sei=Tan en-aut-mei=Xian Wen kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=TakenakaFumiaki en-aut-sei=Takenaka en-aut-mei=Fumiaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=TakekawaHironori en-aut-sei=Takekawa en-aut-mei=Hironori kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=MatsuuraEiji en-aut-sei=Matsuura en-aut-mei=Eiji kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Department of Cell Chemistry, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=Collaborative Research Center (OMIC), Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil=Faculty of Medicine, Okayama University kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil=Department of Cell Chemistry, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= en-keyword=Biological sciences kn-keyword=Biological sciences en-keyword=Antibody kn-keyword=Antibody en-keyword=Biochemistry kn-keyword=Biochemistry en-keyword=Lipid peroxidation kn-keyword=Lipid peroxidation en-keyword=Health sciences kn-keyword=Health sciences en-keyword=Oxidized LDL (oxLDL) kn-keyword=Oxidized LDL (oxLDL) en-keyword=β2-glycoprotein I (β2GPI) kn-keyword=β2-glycoprotein I (β2GPI) en-keyword=OxLDL-β2GPI kn-keyword=OxLDL-β2GPI en-keyword=Lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) kn-keyword=Lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) en-keyword=Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kn-keyword=Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) en-keyword=Point-of-care kn-keyword=Point-of-care END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=70 cd-vols= no-issue=1 article-no= start-page=13 end-page=24 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2016 dt-pub=201602 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=The Function of β2-glycoprotein I in Angiogenesis and Its in Vivo Distribution in Tumor Xenografts en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=Intact β2-glycoprotein I (iβ2GPI) is a glycoprotein that regulates coagulation and fibrinolysis. Nicked β2GPI (nβ2GPI) possesses an angiogenic property at a relatively low concentration, and an antiangiogenic property at a high concentration. Here we investigated the functions of βi 2GPI and nβ2GPI in vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-A-induced endothelial cell proliferation and tube formation. We used noninvasive PET imaging to analyze the in vivo distribution of intravenously injected β2GPI variants in tumor lesions in mice. iβ2GPI was incubated with plasmin to obtain nβ2GPI, and its N-terminal sequence was analyzed. nβ2GPI had at least one other cleavage site upstream of the β2GPIʼs domain V, whereas the former plasmin-cleavage site locates between K317 and T318. Both of intact and nicked β2GPI significantly inhibited the VEGF-A-induced cell proliferation and the tube formation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). PET imaging visualized considerably distributed intensities of all tested β2GPI variants in tumor lesions of pancreatic tumor cell-xenografts. These results indicate that β2GPI may be physiologically and pathophysiologically important in the regulation of not only coagulation and fibrinolysis, but also angiogenesis. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=Arum Tri Wahyuningsih en-aut-sei=Arum Tri Wahyuningsih en-aut-mei= kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=ShenLianhua en-aut-sei=Shen en-aut-mei=Lianhua kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=KobayashiKazuko en-aut-sei=Kobayashi en-aut-mei=Kazuko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=SasakiTakanori en-aut-sei=Sasaki en-aut-mei=Takanori kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=TakenakaFumiaki en-aut-sei=Takenaka en-aut-mei=Fumiaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=HanadaTakahisa en-aut-sei=Hanada en-aut-mei=Takahisa kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=AkehiMasaru en-aut-sei=Akehi en-aut-mei=Masaru kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=AkahoshiAkiya en-aut-sei=Akahoshi en-aut-mei=Akiya kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=OzekiEiichi en-aut-sei=Ozeki en-aut-mei=Eiichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= en-aut-name=AndoEiji en-aut-sei=Ando en-aut-mei=Eiji kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=10 ORCID= en-aut-name=MatsuuraEiji en-aut-sei=Matsuura en-aut-mei=Eiji kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=11 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Cell Chemistry , Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=Collaborative Research Center (OMIC), Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=Collaborative Research Center (OMIC), Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil=Collaborative Research Center (OMIC), Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=5 en-affil= kn-affil=Collaborative Research Center (OMIC), Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=6 en-affil= kn-affil=Collaborative Research Center (OMIC), Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=7 en-affil= kn-affil=Collaborative Research Center (OMIC), Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=8 en-affil= kn-affil=Collaborative Research Center (OMIC), Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=9 en-affil= kn-affil=Technology Research Laboratory, Shimadzu Corporation affil-num=10 en-affil= kn-affil=Life Science Business Department, Shimadzu Corporation affil-num=11 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Cell Chemistry , Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences en-keyword=β2-glycoprotein I (β2GPI) kn-keyword=β2-glycoprotein I (β2GPI) en-keyword=angiogenesis kn-keyword=angiogenesis en-keyword=vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A) kn-keyword=vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A) en-keyword=positron emission tomography (PET) imaging kn-keyword=positron emission tomography (PET) imaging END
