Chemically self-assembled antibody nanorings (CSANs) displaying multiple copies of single chain variable fragments (scFv) can be prepared from dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) fusion proteins and bismethotrexate (BisMTX). We have designed and synthesized a BisMTX chemical dimerizer (bisMTX-NH2) that contains a third linker arm that can be conjugated to fluorophores, radiolabels and drugs. Mono-, divalent and higher order AntiCD3 CSANs were assembled with a FITC labeled bis-methotrexate ligand (bisMTX-FITC) and found to undergo rapid internalization and trafficking by the HPB-MLT, a CD3+ T-leukemia cell line, to the early and late endosome and lysosome. Since the fluorescence of bisMTX-FITC when incorporated into CSANs was found to be significantly greater than the free ligand, the stability of the endocytosed AntiCD3 CSANs could be monitored. The internalized CSANs were found to be stable for several hours, while treatment with the non-toxic DHFR inhibitor trimethoprim (TMP) resulted in a rapid loss (>80%) of cellular fluorescence within minutes, consistent with efficient intracellular disassembly of the nanorings. Over longer time periods (24 h) cellular fluorescence decreased by 75%–90%, whether or not cells had been treated with DMSO or trimethoprim. Although BisMTX is a potent inhibitor of DHFR, it was found to be non-toxic (GI50 >20uM) to HPB-MLT cells. In contrast, AntiCD3 CSANs prepared with BisMTX were found to be at least 13- fold more cytotoxic (GI50=0.5–1.5 uM) than BisMTX at 72 hours. Consistent with our findings from CSANs stability studies, no increase in cytotoxicity was observed upon treatment with trimethoprim. Taken together, our results suggest that cell receptor targeting CSANs prepared with trifunctional BisMTX could be used as potential tissue selective drug carriers
