  3. PADRE peptide

PADRE peptide is a pan-HLA-DR binding epitope and immunostimulant. PADRE peptide binds to the peptide-binding groove of MHC class II molecules for presentation to CD4+ T cells, thereby effectively stimulating specific immune responses. PADRE peptide not only enhances anti-tumor immune responses, inhibits tumor growth and prolongs survival; it also significantly increases the frequency of E7-specific CD8+ T cells and improves therapeutic efficacy against TC-1 tumors when used in combination with E7 peptide-based vaccines and poly (I:C). The intensity of the immune response induced by PADRE peptide is lower than that of the Ii-PADRE DNA vaccine, and it fails to enhance the immune effect of CRT-E7 DNA. PADRE peptide is widely applicable to research on related tumors such as melanoma, glioblastoma and cervical cancer.

Description

PADRE peptide is a pan-HLA-DR binding epitope and immunostimulant. PADRE peptide binds to the peptide-binding groove of MHC class II molecules for presentation to CD4+ T cells, thereby effectively stimulating specific immune responses. PADRE peptide not only enhances anti-tumor immune responses, inhibits tumor growth and prolongs survival; it also significantly increases the frequency of E7-specific CD8+ T cells and improves therapeutic efficacy against TC-1 tumors when used in combination with E7 peptide-based vaccines and poly (I:C). The intensity of the immune response induced by PADRE peptide is lower than that of the Ii-PADRE DNA vaccine, and it fails to enhance the immune effect of CRT-E7 DNA. PADRE peptide is widely applicable to research on related tumors such as melanoma, glioblastoma and cervical cancer[1][2][3].

In Vivo

Co-administration of PADRE peptide (100 μg per mouse; s.c.; twice with 1-week interval) with CRT-E7 DNA increases PADRE-specific CD4+ T cell counts to 41 per 3×105 splenocytes in C57BL/6 mice but does not enhance E7-specific CD8+ T cell responses[1].
PADRE peptide (20 μg/mouse; s.c.; 2 doses 1 week apart) as a separate mixture with E7 peptide and poly(I:C) induces significantly higher E7-specific CD8+ T cell responses in healthy C57BL/6 mice compared to an E7-PADRE fusion peptide formulation (p=0.019), while also enhancing PADRE-specific CD4+ T cell responses compared to single-peptide vaccination (p < 0.05)[3].

Animal Model: C57BL/6 (6-8 weeks old; HPV-16 E6-expressing carcinoma model)[1]
Dosage: 100 µg per mouse
Administration: s.c.; twice with 1-week interval; co-administered with CRT-E7 DNA (2 µg per mouse, i.d. via gene gun) on same schedule
Result: Generated 41 PADRE-specific CD4+ T cells per 3×105 splenocytes.
Did not significantly increase the number of E7-specific CD8+ T cells compared to CRT-E7 DNA plus adjuvant alone.\nGenerated a similar number of E7-specific CD8+ T cells compared to CRT-E7 DNA plus adjuvant alone.
Generated significantly fewer E7-specific CD8+ T cells than CRT-E7 DNA plus Ii-PADRE DNA.
Animal Model: C57BL/6 (female, 5-8 weeks old)[3]
Dosage: 20 μg/mouse (in combination with HPV-16 E7 (aa 49-57) peptide 20 μg/mouse and poly(I:C) 20 μg/mouse)
Administration: s.c.; 2 doses 1 week apart
Result: Generated a significantly higher number of E7-specific IFN-γ-secreting CD8+ T cells (260 per 3×105 splenocytes) compared to mice vaccinated with E7 peptide alone or PADRE peptide alone.
Generated a significantly higher number of PADRE-specific IFN-γ-secreting CD4+ T cells (749 per 3×105 splenocytes) compared to mice vaccinated with E7 peptide alone or PADRE peptide alone.
Generated significantly more E7-specific IFN-γ-secreting CD8+ T cells compared to an E7-PADRE fusion peptide (with poly(I:C)), though fewer PADRE-specific IFN-γ-secreting CD4+ T cells.
Showed equivalent memory E7-specific CD8+ T cell and PADRE-specific CD4+ T cell counts at 5 weeks post-final vaccination compared to the E7-PADRE fusion peptide group.

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 0.2 mg/mL (0.15 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 0.2 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (2.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

    Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
  • Protocol 2

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)

    Solubility: ≥ 0.2 mg/mL (0.15 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 0.2 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (2.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.

    Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
