| Research Abstract |
The present study was aimed to develop a monoclonal antibody-based probe for PET and drug delivery targeting mesothelin (MSLN) expressing cancer, through the application of immunoliposomes. A humanized monoclonalantibody was developed from a mouse monoclonal antibody against MSLN. We also started to develop its single-chain variable fragment (scFv). In vivo mouse PET imaging with 64Cu-lableld Fab fragment of anti-MSLN antibody showed faster tumor targeting than the case with 64Cu-labeled anti-MSLN IgG. Liposomes conjugated with humanized anti-MSLN antibody and labeled with Cy5.5 were taken into MSLN-expressing cultured cancer cells in an antibody-dependent manner.
