During last years monoclonal antibodies (MAB) directed against vascular endothelium markers demonstrated their efficiency for visualization and targeted delivery of therapeutic drugs to tumors. Endoglin (CD105) which serves as a key element that determines endothelial cells quiescence or activation is one of such markers. Endoglin is highly expressed on the vascular endothelium of growing tumors. A first panel of MAB against endoglin in our country was produced at the hybridoma technology laboratory of RRC RST named after A.M. Granov. On the basis of these MAB ELISA was created allowing detection of endoglin in human plasma and other biological fluids. Several MAB had been shown to bind endoglin on the membrane of the cultured endothelial cells and to persist there for several hours. During the first 30 min after binding some of the immune complexes “endoglin-MAB” were internalized into the cytoplasm and were found included in the endosomes. In future these MAB can be used to create the reagents for the addressed delivery of isotope tags both on the membrane and into the cytoplasm of endothelial cells.

Immune complex kinase assays in the simian virus 40 system were performed by incubation of immunoprecipitates containing tumor antigens with [gamma-32P]ATP, followed by analysis of any phosphoacceptor proteins. These assays yielded mainly the viral large T-antigen and, in particular, the associated cellular p53 as endogenous substrates. The nature of these substrates was confirmed by proteolysis techniques. Under specific conditions, casein could be used as an exogenous substrate as well. The kinase reactions showed preference for ATP and MgCl2 instead of GTP or MnCl2. Both phosphoserine and phosphothreonine, but in no case phosphotyrosine, were detected after an immune complex kinase reaction. Apparently, several in vivo phosphorylation sites were recognized in vitro in both large T-antigen and p53, but the presence of some artifactual sites could not be completely excluded. Although contaminating kinases were detectable in the immune complexes, at least the p53 molecules were phosphorylated in vitro in a more specific way. This followed from several characteristics of the immune complex kinase reactions and especially from the strong inhibition of p53 phosphorylation by two anti-large-T monoclonal antibodies. It was shown that large T-antigen showed associated kinase activity, although none of our results could unambiguously demonstrate an intrinsic kinase activity of this protein. Finally, anti-p53 monoclonal antibodies only slightly affected in vitro phosphorylation reactions, whereas a p53 molecule from a simian virus 40-free, chemically transformed human cell line was not phosphorylated in vitro under any condition tested. Thus, it is highly unlikely that the p53 molecule per se carries intrinsic or even associated kinase activities.
