Phage Display Selected Cyclic Peptide Inhibitors of Kallikrein-Related Peptidases 5 and 7 and Their In Vivo Delivery to the Skin

Luc Reymond, Christian Heinis, Alessandro Zorzi, Mischa Schüttel, Vanessa Carle, Tamara Maric, Patrick Andreas Gonschorek

Kallikrein-related peptidases 5 (KLK5) and 7 (KLK7) are serine proteases with homeostatic functions in the epidermis that play a critical role in Netherton syndrome (NS), a rare yet life-threatening genetic disorder that currently lacks specific treatment. ...

Generation of a 100-billion cyclic peptide phage display library having a high skeletal diversity

Christian Heinis, Xudong Kong, Vanessa Carle, Alice Comberlato, Cristina Diaz Perlas

Phage display is a powerful technique routinely used for the generation of peptide- or protein-based ligands. The success of phage display selections critically depends on the size and structural diversity of the libraries, but the generation of large libr ...

Development of Selective FXIa Inhibitors Based on Cyclic Peptides and Their Application for Safe Anticoagulation

Christian Heinis, Camille Villequey, Xudong Kong, Kaycie Marie Butler, Vanessa Carle, Christina Lamers, Tamara Maric, Chloé Rogg, Cristina Diaz Perlas

Coagulation factor XI (FXI) has emerged as a promising target for the development of safer anticoagulation drugs that limit the risk of severe and life-threatening bleeding. Herein, we report the first cyclic peptide-based FXI inhibitor that selectively an ...

Generation of a Large Peptide Phage Display Library by Self-Ligation of Whole-Plasmid PCR Product

Christian Heinis, Xudong Kong, Kaycie Marie Butler, Vanessa Carle, Cristina Diaz Perlas

The success of phage display, used for developing target-specific binders based on peptides and proteins, depends on the size and diversity of the library screened, but generating large libraries of phage-encoded polypeptides remains challenging. New pepti ...

Tissue Factor-Independent Coagulation Correlates with Clinical Phenotype in Factor XI Deficiency and Replacement Therapy

Christian Heinis, Alessandro Aliotta, Vanessa Carle

Background In factor XI (FXI) deficiency, bleeding cannot be predicted by routine analyses. Since FXI is involved in tissue factor (TF)-independent propagation loop of coagulation, we hypothesized that investigating the spatiotemporal separated phases of c ...

De novo development of proteolytically resistant therapeutic peptides for oral administration

Christian Heinis, Florence Pojer, Luciano Andres Abriata, Xudong Kong, Kaycie Marie Butler, Vanessa Carle, Jun Moriya

The oral administration of peptide drugs is hampered by their metabolic instability and limited intestinal uptake. Here, we describe a method for the generation of small target-specific peptides (less than 1,600 Da in size) that resist gastrointestinal pro ...

Development of cyclic peptide inhibitors of coagulation factor XIa for safer anticoagulation

Vanessa Carle

Hemostasis is a complex physiological process responsible for the prevention of blood loss caused by vascular injury. The dysregulation of this delicate mechanism can lead to thromboembolic diseases, the leading cause of death worldwide. Anticoagulants are ...
