A current bottleneck in the development of central nervous system (CNS) drugs is the lack of drug delivery systems targeting the CNS. The intercellular space between endothelial cells of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) is sealed by complex protein-based structures called tight junctions (TJs). Claudin-5 (CLDN-5), a tetra-transmembrane protein is a key component of the TJ seal that prevents the paracellular diffusion of drugs into the CNS. In the present study, to investigate whether CLDN-5 binders can be used for delivery of drugs to the CNS, we generated monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) specific to the extracellular domains of CLDN-5. In an in vitro model of the BBB, the anti-CLDN-5 mAbs attenuated trans-epithelial/endothelial electrical resistance and enhanced solute permeation. These anti-CLDN-5 mAbs are potential leads for the development of novel drug delivery systems targeting the CNS.
