Figure Legend Snippet: Schematic representation and biochemical characterization of traps. A Basic protein structure of traps. VEGF-trap is composed of the VEGF-binding region (domain 2 and 3 of VEGFR-1 and -2, respectively) and the Fc region of IgG1 (CH2 and CH3 domains). The Sticky-traps, Sticky-trap68, Sticky-trap78 and Sticky-trap678 contain the heparin-binding domains (HBDs) encoded by exons 6 and 8, 7 and 8, and 6, 7 and 8 of vascular endothelial growth factor, respectively. See Supplementary Fig S1A and methods for further details. B–D Affinity of traps to extracellular matrix (ECM). (B) Immunostaining (red signal) and Western blot analysis (on the right of the image) of traps in PC-3 cell monolayers and conditioned supernatant, respectively. Similar results are shown in Supplementary Fig S4A for the A-673 transgenic lines. Plus (+) dox samples were collected 48 h after addition of doxycycline-containing media. Scale bar, 100 μm. (C) Binding of recombinant traps to ECM. (D) Affinity of recombinant traps to heparin-Sepharose column. E, F Assessment of traps ability to bind human VEGF. (E) Free VEGF levels in the conditioned of PC-3 cancer transgenic cell lines, co-cultured of wild-type PC-3 cells. Media were collected after 48 h of culture with or without the addition of doxycycline. (F) Binding affinity (KD) of recombinant traps to human VEGF 165 (VEGF-trap; 9.0 pM, Short-trap; 12.2 pM, and Sticky-trap 13.9 pM). G Inhibition of VEGF-induced human umbilical vein endothelial cells proliferation by recombinant traps. Source data are available online for this figure.

Figure Legend Snippet: Pharmacokinetic profile and tissue distribution of traps. A Traps (100 μg) were injected subcutaneously into C57BL/6J mice, and serum levels were estimated using an ELISA assay. Error bars represent s.e.m. ( n = 5). B Serum levels of VEGF at various time points after subcutaneous injection of traps (100 μg) into C57BL/6J mice. Error bars represent s.e.m. ( n = 5; *** P < 0.001, one-way ANOVA). C–F Trap levels in various tissues 48 h post-subcutaneous injection of traps (100 μg) into C57BL/6J mice. Error bars represent s.e.m. ( n = 5; *** P < 0.001, one-way ANOVA).
Techniques Used: Injection, Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay
