摘要: A single polypeptide is provided which comprises first and second domains. The first domain enables the polypeptide to cleave one or more vesicle or plasma-membrane associated proteins essential to exocytosis, and the second domain enables the polypeptide to be translocated into a target cell or increases the solubility of the polypeptide, or both. The polypeptide thus combines useful properties of a clostridial toxin, such as a botulinum or tetanus toxin, without the toxicity associated with the natural molecule. The polypeptide can also contain a third domain that targets it to a specific cell, rendering the polypeptide useful in inhibition of exocytosis in target cells. Fusion proteins comprising the polypeptide, nucleic acids encoding the polypeptide and methods of making the polypeptide are also provided. Controlled activation of the polypeptide is possible and the polypeptide can be incorporated into vaccines and toxin assays.

摘要: A method of treatment of disease by inhibition of cellular secretory processes is provided. The method has particular application in the treatment of diseases dependent upon the exocytotic activity of endocrine cells, exocrine cells, inflammatory cells, cells of the immune system, cells of the cardiovascular system, and bone cells. Agents and compositions therefor, as well as methods for manufacturing these agents and compositions, are provided. In a preferred embodiment a clostridial neurotoxin, substantially devoid of holotoxin binding affinity for neuronal cells of the presynaptic muscular junction, is associated with a targeting moiety. The targeting moiety is selected such that the clostridial toxin conjugate so formed may be directed to a non-neuronal target cell to which the conjugate may bind. Following binding, a neurotoxin component of the conjugate, which is capable of inhibition of cellular secretion, passes into the cytosol of the target cell by cellular internalisation mechanisms. Thereafter, inhibition of secretion from the target cell is effected.

摘要: Antigenic compositions are provided comprising a single chain polypeptide comprising first and second domains, wherein said first domain is a clostridial neurotoxin light chain or a fragment or a variant thereof and is capable of cleaving one or more vesicle or plasma membrane associated proteins essential to exocytosis; and said second domain is a clostridial neurotoxin heavy chain HN portion or a fragment or a variant thereof, wherein said second domain is capable of (i) translocating the polypeptide into a cell or (ii) increasing the solubility of the polypeptide compared to the solubility of the first domain on its own or (iii) both translocating the polypeptide into a cell and increasing the solubility of the polypeptide compared to the solubility of the first domain on its own; and wherein the second domain lacks a functional C-terminal part of a clostridial neurotoxin heavy chain designated HC thereby rendering the polypeptide incapable of binding to cell surface receptors that are the natural cell surface receptors to which native clostridial neurotoxin binds. Antibodies that bind to the polypeptides, and compositions comprising these antibodies, are also provided, as are DNA vaccines comprising polynucleotides that encode these polypeptides. The antigenic and antibody compositions, and the DNA vaccine compositions, can be used in methods of immunising against, or treating, clostridial neurotoxin poisoning in a subject by administering to that subject a therapeutically effective amount of the composition.

摘要: The present invention provides a method for designing a re-targeted toxin conjugate for use in treating a medical condition or disease. Also provided, is the use of said conjugates in the manufacture of a medicament for treating medical conditions or diseases. The conjugates include a Targeting Moiety, which directs the conjugate to a desired target cell, and are characterised by a Targeting Moiety that increases exocytic fusion in the target cell. The present invention also provides methods for identifying agonists suitable for use as Targeting Moieties, and methods for preparing conjugates comprising said Targeting Moieties, to re-target a toxin to a cell of therapeutic interest. In particular, the present invention describes a method for designing a toxin conjugate, and describes therapeutic applications of said conjugates to inhibit or reduce cellular processes. Even more particularly, the present invention describes a method for designing toxin conjugates based upon non-cytotoxic toxins able to inhibit exocytosis, such as clostridial neurotoxins, and describes therapeutic applications of said conjugates to inhibit or reduce exocytosis (for example secretion, or the delivery of proteins such as receptors, transporters, and membrane channels to the plasma membrane of a cell).
