Targeting Strategy

Gene targeting strategy of B-hPD-L1/hTIGIT mice. The exon 3 of mouse Pd-l1 gene that encodes the extracellular domain was replaced by human PD-L1 exon 3 in B-hPD-L1/hTIGIT mice. The exon 2 of mouse Tigit gene that encodes the extracellular domain was replaced by human TIGIT exon 2 in B-hPD-L1/hTIGIT mice.

Details

Phenotype

Protein Expression Analysis

Splenocytes from B-hPD-L1/hTIGIT mice were analyzed by flow cytometry. mTIGIT+ cells were detectable in C57BL/6 mice, while hTIGIT+ cells were detectable in the homozygous B-hPD-L1/hTIGIT mice.

Application

Combination therapy of hTIGIT Ab and PD-L1 Ab

 

Antitumor activity of anti-hTIGIT antibody combined with anti-hPD-L1 antibody in B-hPD-L1/hTIGIT mice. (A) Anti-hTIGIT antibody combined with anti-hPD-L1 antibody inhibited MC38-hPD-L1 tumor growth in B-hPD-L1/hTIGIT mice. Murine colon cancer MC38-hPD-L1 cells (5×105) were subcutaneously implanted into homozygous B-hPD-L1/hTIGIT mice (female, 5-8 week-old, n=7). Mice were grouped when tumor volume reached approximately 150±50 mm3, at which time they were treated with anti-hTIGIT antibody combined with anti-hPD-L1 antibody and schedules indicated in panel (B) Body weight changes during treatment. As shown in panel A, combination of anti-hTIGIT and anti-hPD-L1 antibody shows more inhibitory effects than individual groups, demonstrating that the B-hPD-L1/hTIGIT mice provide a powerful preclinical model for in vivo evaluating combination therapy efficacy of hTIGIT antibodies and hPD-L1 antibodies .
