摘要:
The present invention relates to a method of producing a recombinant protein, particularly an antibody, using a cell in which the function of a fucose transporter is inhibited, and it also provides a cell in which the expression of fucose transporter genes on both homologous chromosomes is artificially suppressed.
摘要:
The present invention provides a gene encoding a fucose transporter, a fucose transporter polypeptide, a method for screening for a compound that binds to a fucose transporter or a compound that inhibits fucose transport activity, a cell having inhibited fucose transporter functions, and a cell wherein the expression of the fucose transporter is inhibited. The present invention further relates to a method for producing recombinant protein, and specifically, to a method for producing protein by which fucose existing within the Golgi apparatus of a host cell is decreased, a method for inhibiting the addition of fucose to protein by which fucose existing within the Golgi apparatus of a host cell is decreased upon production of recombinant protein using the host cell, a method for increasing the cytotoxic activity of an antibody by which an antibody is produced using a cell wherein fucose existing within the Golgi apparatus is decreased, and a cell having a Golgi apparatus wherein fucose existing within the Golgi apparatus is decreased.

摘要:
An antibody (anti-HM1.24 antibody) against HM1.24 antigen in which the alteration of sugar chains resulted in enhanced antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC), specifically an antibody having a sugar chain that does not contain α-1,6 core fucose, an antibody having a sugar chain that contains a bisecting N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) structure, or an antibody having a sugar chain that does not contain α-1,6 core fucose and having a sugar chain that contains a bisecting N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) structure.
摘要:
An anti-glypican-3 antibody comprising one or more amino acid substitutions introduced in the Fc region is disclosed. Preferably, in the anti-glypican-3 antibody, one or more of the amino acid residues at the positions 239, 298, 326, 330 and 332 in the Fc region are substituted with other amino acid residues. Since the Fc-modified anti-glypican-3 antibody of the invention exhibit enhanced ADCC activity, it is useful in treating cancers, such as hepatic cancer. Also disclosed are an anticancer agent comprising the anti-glypican-3 antibody of the invention and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, as well as a method of treating a patient with cancer comprising administering to the patient the anticancer agent of the invention.

摘要:
An anti-glypican 3 antibody with modified sugar chains, more specifically, an anti-glypican 3 antibody lacking fucose is provided. The anti-glypican 3 antibody with modified sugar chains of the present invention may be produced by a process comprising introducing a nucleic acid encoding an anti-glypican 3 antibody into host cells with reduced fucose addition capability, such as YB2/0 cells and cells lacking a fucose transporter. The anti-glypican 3 antibody with modified sugar chains of the present invention has a high level of cytotoxic activity and therefore is useful as a cell growth inhibitor such as an anticancer agent.
