Efficient delivery of oncolytic enterovirus by carrier cell line NK-92.

ABSTRACT: Many members of the enterovirus family are considered as promising oncolytic agents; however, their systemic administration is largely inefficient due to the rapid neutralization of the virus in the circulation and the barrier functions of the endothelium. We aimed to evaluate natural killer cells as carriers for the delivery of oncolytic enteroviruses, which would combine the effects of cell immunotherapy with virotherapy. We tested four strains of nonpathogenic enteroviruses against the glioblastoma cell line panel and evaluated the produced infectious titers. Next, we explored whether these virus strains could be delivered to the tumor by natural killer cell line NK-92, which is being actively evaluated as a clinically acceptable therapeutic. Several strains of enteroviruses demonstrated oncolytic properties, but only coxsackievirus A7 (CVA7) could replicate in NK-92 cells efficiently. We compared the delivery efficiency of CVA7 in vivo, using NK-92 cells and direct intravenous administration, and found significant advantages of cell delivery even after a single injection. This suggests that the NK-92 cell line can be utilized as a vehicle for the delivery of the oncolytic strain of CVA7, which would improve the clinical potential of this viral oncolytic for the treatment of glioblastoma multiforme and other forms of cancer.

Transient Chimeric Ad5/37 Fiber Enhances NK-92 Carrier Cell-Mediated Delivery of Oncolytic Adenovirus Type 5 to Tumor Cells.

Project description:Methods for customizing and improving virus vector tropism are limited. In this study, we introduce a microRNA (miRNA)-regulated molecular method to enhance vector transduction without genome alteration. Based on the importance of adenovirus (Ad) vectors for cancer and gene treatment, we exemplified this technology for an Ad type 5 (Ad5) vector temporally carrying a knob from Ad37. We constructed a producer cell line stably expressing a fused Ad5/37 chimeric fiber comprising the Ad5 shaft-tail and the Ad37 knob and a miRNA inhibiting Ad5 knob expression (HEK293-Ad5/37-miRNA). The chimeric Ad5/37 vector resulted in enhanced transduction rates in Ad37 adequately and Ad5 poorly transduced cells. Particularly, encapsidation of the oncolytic Ad5-human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) vector genome into the chimeric Ad5/37 capsid showed efficient transduction of NK-92 carrier cells. These infected carrier cells then delivered the oncolytic vector to tumor cells, which resulted in enhanced Ad5-hTERT-mediated tumor cell killing. We show that this transiently capsid-modified chimeric vector carrying an Ad5 genome displayed higher transduction efficiencies of natural killer cell-derived NK-92 cells utilized as carriers in cancer immune therapy. In summary, transiently modified adenoviral vectors will have important implications for cancer and gene therapy.

Natural Killer Cell Line NK-92-Mediated Damage of Medically Important Fungi.

Project description:Invasive fungal disease (IFD) in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is associated with high morbidity and mortality. As the antifungal host response determines risk and outcome of IFD, there is growing interest in adoptive immunotherapy using T cells or natural killer (NK) cells. Although the NK-92 cell line has been tested as anticancer therapy in clinical trials, data on the antifungal activity of NK-92 cells are lacking. Here, we show that the NK-92 cell line exhibits considerable fungal damage on all medically important fungi tested, such as different species of Aspergillus, Candida, mucormycetes, and Fusarium. The extent of fungal damage differs across various species of mucormycetes and Fusarium, whereas it is comparable across different species of Aspergillus and Candida. Interferon (IFN)-? levels in the supernatant were lower when NK-92 cells are co-incubated with Aspergillus fumigatus, Candida albicans, or Rhizopus arrhizus compared to the levels when NK-92 cells are incubated alone. Different to primary human NK cells, no increase of perforin levels in the supernatant was observed when the fungi were added to NK-92 cells. Our in vitro data demonstrated that the NK-92 cell line could be a feasible tool for antifungal immunotherapy, but data of animal models are warranted prior to clinical trials.

Natural Killer Cells for Immunotherapy - Advantages of the NK-92 Cell Line over Blood NK Cells.

Project description:Natural killer (NK) cells are potent cytotoxic effector cells for cancer therapy and potentially for severe viral infections. However, there are technical challenges to obtain sufficient numbers of functionally active NK cells from a patient's blood since they represent only 10% of the lymphocytes and are often dysfunctional. The alternative is to obtain cells from a healthy donor, which requires depletion of the allogeneic T cells to prevent graft-versus-host reactions. Cytotoxic cell lines have been established from patients with clonal NK-cell lymphoma. Those cells can be expanded in culture in the presence of IL-2. Except for the NK-92 cell line, though, none of the other six known NK cell lines has consistently and reproducibly shown high antitumor cytotoxicity. Only NK-92 cells can easily be genetically manipulated to recognize specific tumor antigens or to augment monoclonal antibody activity through antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity. NK-92 is also the only cell line product that has been infused into patients with advanced cancer with clinical benefit and minimal side effects.

Carrier Cells for Delivery of Oncolytic Measles Virus into Tumors: Determinants of Efficient Loading.

Project description:Oncolytic measles virus (OMV) is a promising antitumor agent. However, the presence of anti-measles neutralizing antibodies (NAbs) against the hemagglutinin (H) protein of OMV is a major barrier to the therapeutic application of OMV in clinical practice. In order to overcome this challenge, specific types of cells have been used as carriers for OMV. Differential loading strategies appear to result in different therapeutic outcomes; despite this, only few studies have reported practical ex vivo loading strategies required for effective treatment. To this end, we systematically evaluated the antitumor efficacy of OMV using different loading strategies; this involved varying the in vitro loading duration and loading dose of OMV. We found that improved oncolysis of carrier cells was achieved by a prolonged loading duration in the absence of NAbs. However, the enhanced oncolytic effect was abrogated in the presence of NAbs. Further, we found that the expression of H protein on the surface of carrier cells was predominantly determined by the loading duration rather than the loading dose. Finally, we showed that NAbs blocked viral transfer by targeting H protein prior to the occurrence of cell-to-cell interactions. Our results provide comprehensive information on the determinants of an effective loading strategy for carrier cell-based virotherapy; these results may be useful for guiding the application of OMV as an antitumor agent in clinical practice.

Directing systemic oncolytic viral delivery to tumors via carrier cells.

Project description:The systemic administration of oncolytic virus (OV) is often inefficient due to clearance of the virus by host defense mechanism and spurious targeting of non-cancer tissues through the bloodstream. Cell mediated OV delivery could hide the virus from host defenses and direct them toward tumors: Mesenchymal and neural stem cells have been described to possess tumor-homing ability as well as the capacity to deliver OVs. In this review, we will focus on approaches where OV and carrier cells are utilized for cancer therapy. Effective cellular internalization and replication of OVs need to occur both in cancer and carrier cells. We thus will discuss the current challenges faced by the use of OV delivery via carrier cells.

Targeting T-cell malignancies using anti-CD4 CAR NK-92 cells.

Project description:Peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) are a group of very aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHLs) with poor prognoses and account for a majority of T-cell malignancies. Overall, the standard of care for patients with T-cell malignancies is poorly established, and there is an urgent clinical need for a new approach. As demonstrated in B-cell malignancies, chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) immunotherapy provides great hope as a curative treatment regimen. Because PTCLs develop from mature T-cells, these NHLs are commonly CD4+, and CD4 is highly and uniformly expressed. Therefore, CD4 is an ideal target for PTCL CAR immunotherapy. To that effect, we created a robust third-generation anti-CD4 CAR construct (CD4CAR) and introduced it into clonal NK cells (NK-92). CD4CAR NK-92 cells specifically and robustly eliminated diverse CD4+ human T-cell leukemia and lymphoma cell lines (KARPAS-299, CCRF-CEM, and HL60) and patient samples ex vivo. Furthermore, CD4CAR NK-92 cells effectively targeted KARPAS-299 cells in vivo that modeled difficult-to-access lymphoma nodules, significantly prolonging survival. In our study, we present novel targeting of CD4 using CAR-modified NK cells, and demonstrate efficacy. Combined, our data support CD4CAR NK cell immunotherapy as a potential new avenue for the treatment of PTCLs and CD4+ T-cell malignancies.

LAMP1/CD107a is required for efficient perforin delivery to lytic granules and NK-cell cytotoxicity.

Project description:Secretory lysosomes of natural killer (NK) cells, containing perforin and granzymes, are indispensable for NK-cell cytotoxicity because their release results in the induction of target-cell apoptosis. Lysosome-associated membrane protein (LAMP) 1/CD107a is used as a marker for NK-cell degranulation, but its role in NK-cell biology is unknown. We show that LAMP1 silencing causes inhibition of NK-cell cytotoxicity, as LAMP1 RNA interference (RNAi) cells fail to deliver granzyme B to target cells. Reduction of LAMP1 expression affects the movement of lytic granules and results in decreased levels of perforin, but not granzyme B, in the granules. In LAMP1 RNAi cells, more perforin is retained outside of lysosomal compartments in trans-Golgi network-derived transport vesicles. Disruption of expression of LAMP1 binding partner, adaptor protein 1 (AP-1) sorting complex, also causes retention of perforin in the transport vesicles and inhibits cytotoxicity, indicating that the interaction between AP-1 sorting complex and LAMP1 on the surface of the transport vesicles is important for perforin trafficking to lytic granules. We conclude that the decreased level of perforin in lytic granules of LAMP1-deficient cells, combined with disturbed motility of the lytic granules, leads to the inability to deliver apoptosis-inducing granzyme B to target cells and to inhibition of NK-cell cytotoxicity.

Cordycepin Sensitizes Cholangiocarcinoma Cells to Be Killed by Natural Killer-92 (NK-92) Cells.

Project description:Immunotherapy harnessing immune functions is a promising strategy for cancer treatment. Tumor sensitization is one approach to enhance tumor cell susceptibility to immune cell cytotoxicity that can be used in combination with immunotherapy to achieve therapeutic efficiency. Cordycepin, a bioactive compound that can be extracted from some Cordyceps spp. has been reported to effectively inhibit tumor growth, however, the mechanism of its tumor sensitization activity that enhances immune cell cytotoxicity is unknown. In the present study, we investigated the potency of cordycepin to sensitize a lethal cancer, cholangiocarcinoma (CCA), to natural killer (NK) cells. Treatment with cordycepin prior to and during co-culturing with NK-92 cells significantly increased cell death of KKU-213A as compared to solitary cordycepin or NK treatment. Moreover, sensitization activity was also observed in the combination of NK-92 cells and Cordyceps militaris extract that contained cordycepin as a major component. The cordycepin treatment remarkably caused an increase in TRAIL receptor (DR4 and DR5) expression in KKU-213A, suggesting the possible involvement of TRAIL signaling in KKU-213A sensitization to NK-92 cells. In conclusion, this is the first report on the sensitization activity of cordycepin on CCA cells to NK cytotoxicity, which supports that cordycepin can be further developed as an alternate immunomodulating agent.
