Endoproteolysis of the ?-amyloid precursor protein (APP) by ?- and -secretases generates the toxic amyloid ?-peptide (A?), which accumulates in the brain of Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients. Here, we established a novel approach to regulate production of A? based on intracellular expression of single chain antibodies (intrabodies) raised to an epitope adjacent to the ?-secretase cleavage site of human APP. The intrabodies rapidly associated, within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), with newly synthesized APP. One intrabody remained associated during APP transport along the secretory line, shielded the ?-secretase cleavage site and facilitated the alternative, innocuous cleavage operated by -secretase. Another killer intrabody with an ER retention sequence triggered APP disposal from the ER. The first intrabody drastically inhibited and the second almost abolished generation of A?. Intrabodies association with specific substrates rather than with enzymes, may modulate intracellular processes linked to disease with highest specificity and may become instrumental to investigate molecular mechanisms of cellular events.. p5 L, P- A( ?1 [, q, n* T& c9 @

$ @0 I& n2 P0 N' sAging is a major risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD) and the number of AD patients will increase in the near future. For this reason, therapeutic treatments against this devastating disease are urgently sought for (Hardy and Selkoe, 2002; Dodel et al., 2003; Cummings, 2004; Mattson, 2004; Tanzi et al., 2004). The amyloid hypothesis holds that generation and deposition of amyloid ?-peptide (A?) are key events driving neurodegeneration in AD (Glenner and Wong, 1984). Immunotherapy involving injection of synthetic A? aggregates to elicit neutralizing and aggregate-breaking antibodies and passive A? immunization showed promising results in delaying cognitive decline (Younkin, 2001; Haass, 2002), but also underscored the risk of side effects (Pfeifer et al., 2002; Nicoll et al., 2003). Other approaches aim at reducing A? generation by inhibiting the secretase activities. -Secretases cleave several substrates and their inactivation appears to interfere with physiologically important signaling pathways (Haass, 2004), but ?-secretase remains an obvious therapeutic target because its activity can fully be removed in mice by knocking out BACE (?-site APP cleaving enzyme) without any obvious toxicity (Luo et al., 2001; Ohno et al., 2004). Inhibitors of BACE are under active study, but the development of specific, cell-permeable drugs that penetrate into the brain remains a challenging task (Kahle and De Strooper, 2003).

/ {6 S5 J6 L  v0 YHere, we propose a novel approach to control A? production in vivo. The approach is based on intracellular expression of single chain antibodies (intrabodies; Biocca et al., 1990; Bird et al., 1988; Huston et al., 1988; Marasco and Dana Jones, 1998; Lobato and Rabbitts, 2004; Stocks, 2004) that interfere with pathologic endoproteolysis by binding close to the ?-secretase cleavage site of huAPP (Fig. 1). One intrabody associated within the ER with newly synthesized ?-amyloid precursor protein (APP). Association persisted during APP transport along the secretory line, protected APP from ?-secretase cleavage and favored the alternative cleavage by -secretase. This resulted in decreased production of the toxic A? peptide and increased production of P3. Another intrabody carrying a carboxy-terminal ER retention signal caused quantitative ER retention and slow disposal of APP, thereby virtually abolishing A? production.; p+ t! E- f  ^' e& b6 x9 ~7 t

Figure 1. Scheme of APP processing by the secretases. APP is a type I transmembrane protein with a single hydrophobic domain for membrane retention. The amyloidogenic processing of APP produces the ?-amyloid peptide (A?) through sequential cleavages by BACE at the ?-site and by -secretase. Shedding of the APP ectodomain occurs through redundant proteolytic events at the cell surface (-cut) or in endosomes (?-cut) by the secretases. The Swedish mutation at the ?-site strongly favors BACE cleavage of APP on route to the cell surface. The 40 aa sequence of A? is also depicted (bold letters) as well as the 3 aa exchanged in murine A? (normal fonts). The EFRH epitope of the ?1 antibody is mutated to EFGH in RGAPP.. X) m. r8 n' ]

W7 ZThe monoclonal antibody ?1 (Paganetti et al., 1996) specifically binds to the EFRH tetrapeptide adjacent to the ?-secretase cleavage site of huAPP (Fig. 1, at position A?3-6). ?1 was used as template for preparation of two intrabodies named sFv?1 and sFv?1-KDEL. sFv?1 consists of the light and heavy chain variable regions of ?1 (132 and 120 residues, respectively) covalently linked by a GGGGS pentapeptide repeated three times. sFv?1-KDEL is a variant of the same intrabody carrying the SEKDEL carboxy-terminal residues of BiP/GRP78 to confer ER retention (Munro and Pelham, 1987). The native signal sequence of the light chain was maintained to target the intrabodies to the ER lumen. Liquid chromatography mass spectrometry of secreted sFv?1 expressed in human embryonic kidney 293 (HEK) cells revealed that the signal peptide was removed at the consensus site similar to the original ?1 antibody (unpublished data).

+ W8 _# K* v9 {% ?We first determined if sFv?1 maintained the capacity of the ?1 template to associate with huAPP when expressed intracellularly. HEK cells were transfected for expression of the Swedish variant of huAPP (Mullan et al., 1992) with or without sFv?1. 1 d after transfection, cells were metabolically labeled with 35S-methionine and cysteine, chased for 10 min or 2 h, and detergent solubilized. Labeled huAPP was immunoprecipitated from cell lysates with specific antibodies. In mock-transfected cells, huAPP was the only labeled protein isolated (Fig. 2 A, lanes 1 and 2). After a 10-min chase APP is immature (APPi; Mr = 120 kD) in the ER as shown by EndoH sensitivity of its single N-linked glycan (Fig. 2 B). After a 2-h chase most of huAPP was released from the ER and the N-glycan became EndoH resistant (Fig. 2 B). Maturation of huAPP (APPm; Mr = 130 kD) also involves tyrosine-sulfation and O-glycosylation resulting in higher Mr (Weidemann et al., 1989). In cells also expressing sFv?1, the intrabody (Mr = 26 kD) coprecipitated with APPi after a 10-min chase (Fig. 2 A, lane 3) and association persisted through the chase (lane 4). Monitoring kinetics of association revealed that the half-time for formation of the intracellular sFv?1-huAPP complex was 11 min (Fig. 2 C) and that association between sFv?1 and huAPP did not prevent huAPP maturation (Fig. 2 A, lane 4 and Fig. S1, available at http://www.jcb.org/cgi/content/full/jcb.200410047/DC1). The specificity of sFv?1 for huAPP was confirmed by the substantial reduction in the amount of sFv?1 coprecipitated with a variant of APP characterized by a EFGH versus EFRH mutation in the ?1 epitope (Fig. 2 A, RGAPP). Also the parental antibody ?1 has strongly decreased affinity for this epitope present in mouse APP./ ~& L+ c5 d; s( n$ P; g$ ~& x$ s

After metabolic labeling with 35S-amino acids and chasing with unlabeled amino acids, huAPP and RGAPP were immunoprecipitated from cell extracts with a carboxy-terminal APP antibody.

Next, we coexpressed huAPP with sFv?1-KDEL to determine first if this intrabody maintained the capacity to associate with APP, and second to establish if appending an ER-retention sequence to an APP-targeted intrabody also caused retention of huAPP. Cells were metabolically labeled and chased for 10 min and 3 h. sFv?1-KDEL had slower electrophoretic mobility than sFv?1 (Fig. 3 A). It rapidly associated with newly synthesized huAPP as shown by coimmunoprecipitation after a 10-min chase (Fig. 3 A, lane 3) and association persisted through the chase (Fig. 3 A, lane 4). Unlike sFv?1, however, association of sFv?1-KDEL with huAPP prevented export of the latter from the ER. In fact, the molecular weight of APP did not increase with progression of the chase (Fig. 3 A, lanes 3 and 4) and the protein failed to acquire EndoH resistance or other posttranslational modifications even after 3 h (Fig. 3 A, EndoH).( M& c7 M# I& S) C5 T+ D8 c' ]

Both intrabodies associates and coprecipitates with huAPP using a carboxy-terminal antibody to APP. In the presence of sFv?1, APPm at the end of the 3-h chase has higher Mr than newly synthesized APPi (10 min). In contrast, sFv?1-KDEL impairs maturation of APP, no Mr shift is observed and APPi remains EndoH sensitive. (B) Indirect immunofluorescence was performed with an antibody to APP (transfected cells in panels 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, and 11) and to Cnx to visualize the ER (all cells in panels 2, 6, and 10) or Giantin to visualize the Golgi (panels 4, 8, and 12). In the presence of sFv?1-KDEL (panels 9–12), APP and Cnx colocalizes. In sFv?1 (panels 5–8) or mock-transfected cells (panels 1–4), APP is detected in the ER and in the Golgi. (C) Immature APP retained in the ER by sFv?1-KDEL is degraded with a t1/2 of 2 h; APP disposal is partially inhibited by the proteasomal inhibitor MG132.% K- I0 ~* m; k- Q& E/ ]3 f

Cytochemical analysis by indirect immunofluorescence revealed that part of huAPP colocalized with the ER marker calnexin (Cnx) and part of it stained clustered regions free of Cnx (Fig. 3 B, squares, panels 1 and 2) but stained with an antibody to the Golgi marker Giantin (Fig. 3 B, panels 3 and 4). Note that all cells are labeled with the markers but only transfected cells are positive for anti-APP. ER and Golgi localization is expected for APP, a secretory protein synthesized in the ER and transported for maturation along the secretory pathway (Weidemann et al., 1989). Expression of sFv?1 did not affect the intracellular localization of huAPP, which colocalized in part with Cnx (Fig. 3 B, panels 5 and 6) but was also in perinuclear clusters stained with Giantin (Fig. 3 B, panels 5, 7, and 8). On the other hand, expression of sFv?1-KDEL caused retention of huAPP in the ER as shown by exclusion of APP from Giantin-containing structures (Fig. 3 B, panels 9–12). Thus, we generated one intrabody (sFv?1) that associated with APP in the ER lumen and remained associated with it during transport along the secretory line. A second intrabody (sFv?1-KDEL) was equally efficient and fast to associate with APP, but prevented exit of the target protein from the ER. sFv?1-KDEL actually acted as a killer intrabody because it triggered slow disposal of newly synthesized APP in a process that was delayed by MG132, an inhibitor of the cytosolic proteasome (Fig. 3 C).1 E" r% U  I2 @) K. c: i+ v

  m" `. }7 `5 a& }% b- o4 IWe next determined if intracellular association of sFv?1 and of sFv?1-KDEL with APP affected secretase-mediated endoproteolysis resulting in the shedding of the ectodomain of this type I membrane protein. Cells coexpressing huAPP and sFv?1 or sFv?1-KDEL were metabolically labeled and chased for 10 min or 2 h. To analyze protein secretion, conditioned media were harvested, boiled in sample buffer and analyzed by SDS PAGE. Because of CMV-driven expression, labeled sAPP (and sFv?1) are the major secretory products of transfected HEK cells. After 10 min, no labeled ectodomain was secreted (Fig. 4 A, lanes 1, 3, and 5; Fig. S1) as the labeled proteins are still folding in the ER. After a 2-h chase, ectodomain shedding of labeled huAPP had occurred in mock-treated cells (Fig. 4 A, lane 2; Fig. S1). Coexpression of sFv?1 significantly reduced (Fig. 4 A, lane 4; Fig. S1), and coexpression of sFv?1-KDEL virtually abolished secretase-mediated release of huAPP from cells (Fig. 4 A, lane 6). APP with the mutated ?1 epitope served again as specificity control because coexpression of sFv?1 did not reduce release of the RGAPP ectodomain in the extracellular media compared with controls (Fig. 4 C).

Figure 4. Consequences of sFv?1 and of sFv?1-KDEL expression on APP processing and release in the extracellular medium of the APP ectodomain. (A) 15 μl of conditioned medium (total was 1.5 ml) were boiled in sample buffer and analyzed in SDS-PAGE for determination of radiolabeled APP-ectodomain (sAPP) release from cells at 2 h (lane 2). Coexpression of sFv?1 reduces sAPP release from cells (lane 4) and sFv?1-KDEL virtually abolishes release of the APP ectodomain (lane 6). (B) The same samples analyzed in A were immunoprecipitated with an APP-specific antibody to demonstrate sAPP:sFv?1 association. Only a fraction of secreted sFv?1 coprecipitates with sAPP (compare the relative ratio sAPP vs. sFv?1 in A and B, lanes 4). (C) Coexpressing of sFv?1 does not lower secretion of the RGAPP ectodomain (lanes 2 and 4, cond. media; lanes 2 and 4, anti-APP) and sFv?1 does not associate with RGAPP as shown by lack of coprecipitation (lane 4, anti-APP).

Labeled sFv?1 was secreted in the conditioned medium (Fig. 4, A and C, lane 4), whereas virtually no labeled sFv?1-KDEL was detected extracellularly (Fig. 4 A, lane 6), as expected for a polypeptide carrying an ER retention signal. Part of the secreted sFv?1 was associated and coprecipitated with the secreted huAPP (Fig. 4 B, lane 4) but not with the control protein RGAPP (Fig. 4 C, lane 8). Thus, the complex between the intrabody and huAPP was maintained during secretion and after shedding. From the data described above, we concluded that uncomplexed sFv?1 was also released from cells. This is of interest and might have beneficial consequences in case of a therapeutic application of our approach because recognition of the EFRH epitope proved essential for antibodies able to prevent formation or to disassemble preexisting A? plaques (Frenkel et al., 1998; Pfeifer et al., 2002). Moreover, passive immunization may rapidly reverse behavioral deficits in mice (Dodart et al., 2002). To establish if in situ release of intrabodies targeted to A? exerts protective and/or therapeutic activity awaits further experimentation in an animal model for the disease. Thus, in a series of several independent experiments summarized in Fig. 4 D, we proved that by associating close to the ?-secretase cleavage site, sFv?1 inhibited by >60% the processing and release of the Swedish variant of APP. Addition of a SEKDEL-retention signal led to production of a killer intrabody that retained newly synthesized APP in the ER preventing secretase processing and eventually leading to slow degradation of APP.& O- C9 e' |!

$ L% O0 `" m# n& n. QThe endoproteolysis of APPSwedish consists mainly in sequential cleavages by ?- and -secretase releasing the soluble APP ectodomain and the toxic A? peptide. A minor alternative endoproteolysis initiated by -secretase releases the soluble APP ectodomain and the peptide P3 (Fig. 1). Therefore, we next determined how coexpression of sFv?1 or sFv?1-KDEL affected production of the APP metabolites A? and P3. APP-derived peptides produced by HEK cells were identified independently by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (Wang et al., 1996; unpublished data). Here, we determined the peptides by combining immunoprecipitation and immunoblotting with two well-characterized antibodies to the carboxy terminus of A? (Paganetti et al., 1996) and electrophoretic comigration with synthetic peptides (Fig. 5).

Figure 5. Consequences of sFv?1 and of sFv?1-KDEL expression on production of A? and P3. (A) Western blot analysis of cell lysates with a carboxy-terminal APP-antibody visualizes immature (APPi) and mature (APPm) full-length APP at steady state. Maturation of HuAPP and RGAPP is not affected by sFv?1 when compared with mock conditions. On the other hand, sFv?1-KDEL fully retains HuAPP in the APPi form, but shows much lower affinity for the mutated EFGH epitope of RGAPP. (B) A? and P3 were identified according to their electrophoretic mobility using synthetic peptides after immunoprecipitation and Western blot analysis using two carboxy-terminal A?-specific antibodies. Secretase-mediated endoproteolysis of APPSwedish mainly results in production of A? (lane 1). Association of sFv?1 close to the ?-secretase cleavage site substantially reduces production of A? (lane 2), whereas sFv?1-KDEL virtually abolishes production of A? (lane 3). The intrabodies have no effect on A? generation when the RG mutant of APP is expressed (lanes 4–6). Overexposition of gel (bottom) better visualizes the metabolite P3, and shows that sFv?1 lowers A?, whereas favoring -secretase–mediated cleavage resulting in the innocuous P3 peptide (lane 2).3 k$ E6 l- w) z

In contrast, sFv?1-KDEL strongly impaired APP maturation (Fig. 5 A, lane 3). Overexpression of APPSwedish produced abundant A? as expected for this substrate efficiently processed by ?-secretase (Fig. 5 B, lane 1). Consistent with the effects observed for the ectodomain shedding, A? generation was lowered by coexpression of sFv?1 (Fig. 5 B, lane 2) and virtually prevented by sFv?1-KDEL (Fig. 5 B, lane 3). In contrast, sFv?1 did not affect cleavage of the RGAPP carrying the point mutation in the sFv?1 epitope (Fig. 5, A and B, lane 5) and sFv?1-KDEL slightly affected RGAPP maturation (Fig. 5 A, lane 6) and did not affect significantly the production of A?

Thus, association of intrabodies to a sequence adjacent to the ?-secretase cleavage site interfered with the amyloidogenic processing of huAPP by the ?-secretase as determined by reduction of release from cells of the APP ectodomain and A?. In contrast, the innocuous cleavage by -secretase was slightly favored as shown by increased production of P3.

In summary, we engaged the cellular protein factory, the ER, to produce therapeutic agents inhibiting production of A?. By rapidly associating with newly synthesized APP and by escorting it during intracellular transport, sFv?1 shielded APP from the pathologic ?-secretase–mediated cleavage. By appending an ER-retention sequence, we generated an intrabody that retained APP in the ER strongly impairing A? production.$ C7 }! x- G( ~

The use of specific intrabodies allowed intervention in an enzymatic process leading to a human disease by targeting the substrate, rather than the modifying enzyme whose activity is at the origin of the disease. By avoiding direct intervention on the enzyme, liabilities for side effects that may be triggered when the enzyme of interest is involved in other physiologic processes are lowered. Our data present a "proof of principle" for an intervention with highest selectivity in pathophysiologic processes in disease.
