This study explores the use of anti-human-CD4 minibody for antibody-based PET to visualize human CD4(+) T cells. Through in vitro and in vivo experiments, it is found that this method can accurately detect CD4(+) T cells without impacting their abundance, proliferation, and activation state. In humanized mice, this method can also visualize the distribution of CD4(+) T cells in peripheral tissues and brain tumors.
Antibody-based PET (immunoPET) with radiotracers that recognize specific cells of the immune system provides an opportunity to monitor immune cell trafficking at the organismal scale. We previously reported the visualization of human CD8(+) T cells, including CD8(+) tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL), in mice using a humanized CD8-targeted minibody. Given the important role of CD4(+) T cells in adaptive immune responses of health and disease including infections, tumors, and autoimmunity, we explored immunoPET using an anti-human-CD4 minibody. We assessed the ability of [Cu-64]Cu-NOTA-IAB41 to bind to various CD4(+) T-cell subsets in vitro. We also determined the effect of the CD4-targeted minibody on CD4(+) T-cell abundance, proliferation, and activation state in vitro. We subsequently evaluated the ability oldie radiotracer to visualize CD4(+) T cells in T-cell rich organs and orthotopic brain tumors in vivo. For the latter, we injected the [Cu-64]Cu-NOTA-IAB41 radiotracer into humanized mice that harbored intracranial patient-derived glioblastoma (GBM) xenografts and performed in vivo PET, ex vivo autoradiography, and anti-CD4 IHC on serial brain sections. [Cu-64]Cu-NOTA-IAB41 specifically detects human CD4(+) T cells without impacting their abundance, proliferation, and activation. In humanized mice, [Cu-64]Cu-NOTA-IAB41 can visualize various peripheral tissues in addition to orthotopically implanted GBM tumors. [Cu-64]Cu-NOTA-IAB41 is able to visualize human CD4(+)T cells in humanized mice and can provide noninvasive quantification of CD4(+) T-cell distribution on the organismal scale.
