Enzyme therapy in mannose receptor-null mucopolysaccharidosis VII mice defines roles for the mannose 6-phosphate and mannose receptors.

ABSTRACT: Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) is available for several lysosomal storage diseases. Except for Gaucher disease, for which an enzyme with exposed mannosyl residues targets mannose receptors (MR) on macrophages, ERT targets primarily the mannose 6-phosphate receptor (MPR). Most recombinant lysosomal enzymes contain oligosaccharides with both terminal mannosyl and mannose 6-phosphate residues. Effective MPR-mediated delivery may be compromised by rapid clearance of infused enzyme by the MR on fixed tissue macrophages, especially Kupffer cells. To evaluate the impact of this obstacle to ERT, we introduced the MR-null mutation onto the mucopolysaccharidosis type VII (MPS VII) background and produced doubly deficient MR-/- MPS VII mice. The availability of both MR+/+ and MR-/- mice allowed us to study the effects of eliminating the MR on MR- and MPR-mediated plasma clearance and tissue distribution of infused phosphorylated (P) and nonphosphorylated (NP) forms of human beta-glucuronidase (GUS). In MR+/+ MPS VII mice, the MR clearance system predominated at doses up to 6.4 mg/kg P-GUS. Genetically eliminating the MR slowed plasma clearance of both P- and NP-GUS and enhanced the effectiveness of P-GUS in clearing storage in kidney, bone, and retina. Saturating the MR clearance system by high doses of enzyme also improved targeting to MPR-containing tissues such as muscle, kidney, heart, and hepatocytes. Although ablating the MR clearance system genetically is not practical clinically, blocking the MR-mediated clearance system with high doses of enzyme is feasible. This approach delivers a larger fraction of enzyme to MPR-expressing tissues, thus enhancing the effectiveness of MPR-targeted ERT.

Project description:Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) VII is a lysosomal storage disorder characterized by deficient activity of β-glucuronidase, leading to progressive accumulation of incompletely degraded heparan, dermatan and chondroitin sulfate glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). Patients with MPS VII exhibit progressive skeletal deformity including kyphoscoliosis and joint dysplasia, which decrease quality of life and increase mortality. Previously, using the naturally-occurring canine model, we demonstrated that one of the earliest skeletal abnormalities to manifest in MPS VII is failed initiation of secondary ossification in vertebrae and long bones at the requisite postnatal developmental stage. The objective of this study was to obtain global insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying this failed initiation of secondary ossification using whole transcriptome sequencing (RNA-Seq). Epiphyseal tissue was isolated from the vertebrae of control and MPS VII affected dogs at 9 and 14 days-of-age (n=5 for each group). Differences in global gene expression across this developmental window for both cohorts were established using RNA-Seq. A targeted analysis focused on signaling pathways important in the regulation of endochondral ossification, and a subset of gene expression changes were validated using qPCR. Principal Component Analysis revealed clustering of samples from each group, indicating clear effects of both age and disease state. At 9 days-of-age, 1375 genes were significantly differentially expression between MPS VII and control, and by 14 days-of-age, this increased to 4719 genes. Osteoactivin (GPNMB) was the top upregulated gene in MPS VII at both ages. Targeted analysis revealed temporal changes in gene expression from 9 to 14 days-of-age in control samples consistent with chondrocyte maturation, cartilage resorption, and osteogenesis. In MPS VII samples, however, elements of key osteogenic pathways such as Wnt/β-catenin and BMP signaling were dysregulated. In conclusion, this study represents the first step towards identifying druggable therapeutic targets and putative biomarkers for bone disease in MPS VII patients during postnatal growth.

Project description:ObjectiveThis study assessed growth patterns in patients with mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) VII before enzyme replacement therapy.MethodsHeight, weight, and body mass index (BMI) measurements and Z-scores from patients from three clinical studies were compared with those from CDC healthy population growth charts. Relationships with age/sex and history of non-immune hydrops fetalis (NIHF) were assessed by linear regression and ANOVA, respectively.ResultsAmong 20 enrolled patients with MPS VII, height Z-scores were near normal until 1 year of age but declined thereafter, particularly among males. There was no consistent pattern in weight Z-score. BMI Z-scores were above normal and increased slightly with age among males and were slightly below normal among females. Male patients with a history of NIHF had greater declines in height and weight Z-scores over time versus males without history of NIHF. There was no clear effect of NIHF history on height and weight Z-scores in female patients.ConclusionsIn patients with MPS VII, declines in height Z-score began early in life, particularly among males, while changes in BMI varied by sex. Patients with MPS VII and a history of NIHF had greater declines in height Z-score with age than did patients without a history of NIHF.Clinical trial registration: This retrospective analysis included patients enrolled in an open-label phase 2 study (UX003-CL203; ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02418455), a randomized, placebo-controlled, blind-start phase 3 study (UX003-CL301; ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02230566), or its open-label, long-term extension (UX003-CL202; ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02432144).
