Recombinant monoclonal antibody to Human ErbB2. The antibody is a monoclonal antibody that interferes with the HER2/neu receptor. Its main use is to treat certain breast cancers.
The HER receptors are proteins that are embedded in the cell membrane and communicate molecular signals from outside the cell (molecules called EGFs) to inside the cell, and turn genes on and off. The HER proteins stimulate cell proliferation. In some cancers, notably certain types of breast cancer, HER2 is over-expressed, and causes cancer cells to reproduce uncontrollably.
Figure 1 t-DARPP and ERBB2 are significantly overexpressed in adenocarcinomas.
left, cell viability of OE19 and OE33 cells in response to trastuzumab treatment was evaluated by Trypan blue staining. OE19 cells were 2-fold more sensitive to trastuzumab than OE33 cells (P < 0.001). D, right, Western blot analysis shows higher protein expression of ERBB2 in OE19 cells than OE33 cells. In contrast, t-DARPP expression was undetectable in OE19 cells but highly expressed in OE33 cells.

Figure 2 t-DARPP expression blocks trastuzumab-induced apoptosis.
A, apoptosis in OE19 cells infected with control (10 MOI) or t-DARPP (10 MOI) recombinant adenoviruses after treatment with vehicle or trastuzumab (20 μg/mL) for 48 hours was determined by Annexin-V/PI staining and FACS analysis. B, Western blot analysis of caspase-3, cleaved caspase-3, and t-DARPP proteins in OE19 cells infected with control or t-DARPP adenoviruses following treatments as described in A. C, apoptosis in parental and trastuzumab-resistant OE19 cells after treatment with vehicle or trastuzumab (20 μg/mL) for 48 hours was evaluated by Annexin-V/PI staining and FACS analysis. D, Western blot analysis of caspase-3, cleaved caspase-3, and t-DARPP proteins in parental and trastuzumab-resistant OE19 cells after treatments as described in C. These data indicate that endogenous and exogenous t-DARPP expression counteracted trastuzumab-induced apoptosis in OE19 cells.

Figure 3 t-DARPP associates with ERBB2 and interferes with trastuzumab/ERBB2 protein interaction.
A, Western blot analysis of coimmunoprecipitated exogenous t-DARPP and endogenous ERBB2 proteins with M2-flag or trastuzumab antibodies in OE19 cells infected with t-DARPP-flag adenovirus (10 MOI). These data show protein association of ERBB2 with t-DARPP. B, Western blot analysis of immunoprecipitated endogenous ERBB2 protein with trastuzumab antibody in OE19 cells infected with control (10 MOI) or t-DARPP (10 MOI) adenoviruses. Pulled-down ERBB2 band intensity was depicted as a ratio relative to input ERBB2 protein. The results show that exogenous t-DARPP expression blocked binding of trastuzumab to ERBB2 receptor relative to control. C, Western blot analysis of immunoprecipitated endogenous ERBB2 protein with trastuzumab antibody in parental or trastuzumab-resistant OE19 cells. The band intensity of immunoprecipitated ERBB2 protein was shown as a ratio relative to input ERBB2. These data indicate that endogenous t-DARPP expression in trastuzumab-resistant cells was associated with a significant decrease in trastuzumab/ERBB2 protein interaction relative to control.

Figure 4 t-DARPP overexpression promotes tumor growth and blocks response to trastuzumab treatment in vivo.
The H&E staining at the end of trastuzumab treatment shows effectively diminished control tumors leaving necrotic and fibrotic lesions (left), whereas t-DARPP tumors were unaffected (right).
