P1, Human

* Please kindly note that our products are not to be used for therapeutic purposes and cannot be sold to patients.

It is a cell-penetrating peptide (CPP) derived from the human immunoglobulin heavy chain sequence. At low molar concentration, it can permeate cell membrane without obvious influence on cell membrane. CPP can bind macromolecules and be used as drug delivery vectors.

1. Design and synthesis of 2-substituted-5-(4-trifluoromethylphenyl-sulphonamido)benzoxazole derivatives as human GST P1-1 inhibitors
Tugba Ertan-Bolelli, Kayhan Bolelli, Yaman Musdal, Ilkay Yildiz, Esin Aki-Yalcin, Bengt Mannervik, Ismail Yalcin Artif Cells Nanomed Biotechnol. 2018 May;46(3):510-517. doi: 10.1080/21691401.2017.1324464. Epub 2017 May 14.
The glutathione transferases (GSTs) are a family of widely distributed Phase II detoxification enzymes. GST P1-1 is frequently overexpressed in rat and human tumours. It is suggested that overexpression of hGST P1-1 by human tumor cells may play a role in resistance to cancer chemotherapy. Hence, hGST P1-1 can be a promising target for cancer treatment. In this study, new hGST P1-1 inhibitors, 2-(4-substitutedphenyl/benzyl)-5-(4-trifluoromethylphenylsulphonamido) benzoxazole derivatives (Va-Vk) have been designed and synthesized. Surprisingly, in vitro hGST P1-1 enzyme inhibition studies demonstrated that all of the tested compounds except Vj had better activity than the reference drug EA and it is also correlated with the docking results. Additionally we compared the interactions with hGST P1-1 enzyme of newly synthesized compound Vh (bearing CF3 group) and previously synthesized compound 5f (bearing NO2 group). According to the docking results, compound Vh bound to the hGST P1-1 enzyme with a higher affinity compared to 5f. Therefore, we can consider that these data make a sense and can explain its higher activity. The compounds that obtained from this research could be used as scaffolds in design of new potent hGST P1-1 inhibitors useful in the treatment of the resistance of cancer chemotherapy.
2. IgG antibody responses to Anopheles gambiae gSG6-P1 salivary peptide are induced in human populations exposed to secondary malaria vectors in forest areas in Cameroon
Cyrille Ndo, Emmanuel Elanga-Ndille, Glwadys Cheteug, Rosine Danale Metitsi, Samuel Wanji, Carole Else Eboumbou Moukoko PLoS One. 2022 Nov 10;17(11):e0276991. doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0276991. eCollection 2022.
Human IgG antibody response to Anopheles gambiae gSG6-P1 salivary peptide was reported to be a pertinent indicator for assessing human exposure to mosquito bites and evaluating the risk of malaria transmission as well as the effectiveness of vector control strategies. However, the applicability of this marker to measure malaria transmission risk where human populations are mostly bitten by secondary vectors in Africa has not yet been evaluated. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether anti-gSG6-P1 antibodies response could be induced in humans living in forest areas in Cameroon where An. gambiae s.l is not predominant. In October 2019 at the pick of the rainy season, blood samples were collected from people living in the Nyabessang in the forest area in the South region of Cameroon. Malaria infection was determined using thick blood smear microscopy and Rapid Diagnostic Test. The level of IgG Anti-gSG6-P1 response as a biomarker of human exposure to Anopheles bite, was assessed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Mosquitoes were collected using the human landing catches to assess Anopheles density and for the identification of Anopheles species present in that area. IgG antibody response to the gSG6-P1 salivary peptide was detected in inhabitants of Nyabessang with high inter-individual heterogeneity. No significant variation in the level of this immune response was observed according to age and gender. The concentration of gSG6-P1 antibodies was significantly correlated with the malaria infection status and, Plasmodium falciparum-infected individuals presented a significantly higher level of IgG response than uninfected individuals (p = 0.0087). No significant difference was observed according to the use of insecticide treated nets. Out of the 1,442 Anopheles mosquitoes species collected, 849 (58.9%) were identified as An. paludis, 489 (33.91%) as An. moucheti, 28 (4.44%) as An. nili, 22 (2.08%) as An. gambiae s.l and 10 (0.69%) as An. marshallii. Our findings show that IgG response to An. gambiae gSG6-P1 peptide could be detected in humans exposed predominantly to An. moucheti and An. paludis bites. Taken together, the data revealed the potential of the Anti-gSG6-P1 IgG antibody response to serve as a universal marker to assess human exposure to any Anopheles species.
3. The P1 histo-blood group antigen is present on human red blood cell glycoproteins
Linn Stenfelt, Julia S Westman, Åsa Hellberg, Martin L Olsson Transfusion. 2019 Mar;59(3):1108-1117. doi: 10.1111/trf.15115. Epub 2018 Dec 30.
Background: The P1 antigen was first described in 1927 and belongs to the P1PK histo-blood group system, together with Pk and NOR. The A4GALT-encoded 4-α-galactosyltransferase synthesizes these antigens and has been considered to extend glycolipids exclusively. However, contradicting studies have been published regarding the presence of P1 on human glycoproteins. In other species, P1 occurs on glycoproteins. Furthermore, human ABH antigens occur on both glycolipids and glycoproteins and are biochemically related to P1. Thus, we hypothesized that P1 is present on RBC glycoproteins in humans. Study design and methods: RBCs of known P1 /P2 status (phenotype and rs8138197 genotype) were used. The RBC surface glycans were modified with α-galactosidases, papain, and/or peptide-N-glycosidase F. RBC membrane proteins were analyzed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis/immunoblot. A new P 1 /P 2 -allelic discrimination assay based on rs5751348 was validated. Results: P1 occurs on various glycoproteins, seen as smearlike patterns in anti-P1-stained immunoblots with RBC membranes of P1 but not P2 or p phenotype. There was a significant difference between the staining of P 1 -homozygous and P 1 -heterozygous RBCs (P 1 P 1 > P 1 P 2 ), as well as intragenotypic variation. Immunoblotting banding patterns show major carriers at approximately 50 and 100 kDa. P1 staining was lost after treatment of RBCs with α-galactosidase of broad Galα-1,3/4/6-specificity. Peptide-N-glycosidase F treatment reduced the P1 signal, while papain or α-1,3-specific galactosidase did not. P 1 /P 2 status was confirmed by a new rs5751348 assay. Conclusion: Our data indicate that the P1 antigen can reside on human RBC glycoproteins. Glycosidase studies suggest that at least part of the epitopes occur on N-glycans.
