P-selectin is a leukocyte adhesion receptor expressed on
activated vascular endothelium and platelets that mediates leukocyte rolling and attachment. Because P-selectin is critically involved in
inflammation, we used phage display libraries to identify
P-selectin-specific peptides that might interfere with its
proinflammatory function. Isolated phage contained a highly conserved
amino acid motif. Synthetic peptides showed calcium-dependent binding
to P-selectin, with high selectivity over E-selectin and L-selectin.
The peptides completely antagonized adhesion of monocyte-derived HL60
cells to P-selectin and increased their rolling velocities in flow
chamber experiments. Peptide truncation and alanine-scanning studies
indicated that an EWVDV (single-letter amino acid codes)
consensus motif sufficed for effective inhibition. Intriguingly, the
apparent avidity of the peptides was increased 200-fold when presented in a tetrameric form (2 µM versus 10 nM), which is consistent with
the proposed divalent interaction of P-selectin glycoprotein ligand 1 (PSGL-1) with P-selectin. As the EWVDV peptides inhibit the binding of
an established glycoside ligand for P-selectin (sulfated Lewis A), it
is conceivable that EWVDV interacts with or in close proximity to the
actual carbohydrate recognition domain of P-selectin, without being a
direct structural mimic of sialyl Lewisx. These ligands are
among the most potent antagonists of P-selectin yet designed. Their
high affinity, selectivity, and accessible synthesis provide a
promising entry to the development of new anti-inflammatory
therapeutics and might be a powerful tool to provide important
information on the binding site of P-selectin.
