E-Selectin/AAV2/2 Gene Therapy Alters Angiogenesis and Inflammatory Gene Profiles in Mouse Gangrene Model.

ABSTRACT: For patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia and limited revascularization options, alternate means for therapeutic angiogenesis and limb salvage are needed. E-selectin is a cell adhesion molecule that is critical for inflammation and neovascularization in areas of wound healing and ischemia. Here, we tested the efficacy of modifying ischemic limb tissue by intramuscular administration of E-selectin/AAV2/2 (adeno-associated virus serotype 2/2) to modulate angiogenic and inflammatory responses in a murine hindlimb gangrene model. Limb appearance, reperfusion, and functional recovery were assessed for 3 weeks after induction of ischemia. Mice receiving E-selectin/AAV2/2 gene therapy had reduced gangrene severity, increased limb and footpad perfusion, enhanced recruitment of endothelial progenitor cells, and improved performance on treadmill testing compared to control group. Histologically, E-selectin/AAV2/2 gene therapy was associated with increased vascularity and preserved myofiber integrity. E-selectin/AAV2/2 gene therapy also upregulated a panel of pro-angiogenic genes yet downregulated another group of genes associated with the inflammatory response. This novel gene therapy did not induce adverse effects on coagulability, or hematologic, hepatic, and renal function. Our findings highlight the potential of E-selectin/AAV2/2 gene therapy for improving limb perfusion and function in patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia.

AAV2/4-RS1 gene therapy in the retinoschisin knockout mouse model of X-linked retinoschisis.

Project description:ObjectiveTo evaluate efficacy of a novel adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector, AAV2/4-RS1, for retinal rescue in the retinoschisin knockout (Rs1-KO) mouse model of X-linked retinoschisis (XLRS). Brinzolamide (Azopt®), a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor, was tested for its ability to potentiate the effects of AAV2/4-RS1.MethodsAAV2/4-RS1 with a cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter (2x1012 viral genomes/mL) was delivered to Rs1-KO mice via intravitreal (N = 5; 1μL) or subretinal (N = 21; 2μL) injections at postnatal day 60-90. Eleven mice treated with subretinal therapy also received topical Azopt® twice a day. Serial full field electroretinography (ERG) was performed starting at day 50-60 post-injection. Mice were evaluated using a visually guided swim assay (VGSA) in light and dark conditions. The experimental groups were compared to untreated Rs1-KO (N = 11), wild-type (N = 12), and Rs1-KO mice receiving only Azopt® (N = 5). Immunofluorescence staining was performed to assess RS1 protein expression following treatment.ResultsThe ERG b/a ratio was significantly higher in the subretinal plus Azopt® (p<0.0001), subretinal without Azopt® (p = 0.0002), and intravitreal (p = 0.01) treated eyes compared to untreated eyes. There was a highly significant subretinal treatment effect on ERG amplitudes collectively at 7-9 months post-injection (p = 0.0003). Cones showed more effect than rods. The subretinal group showed improved time to platform in the dark VGSA compared to untreated mice (p<0.0001). RS1 protein expression was detected in the outer retina in subretinal treated mice and in the inner retina in intravitreal treated mice.ConclusionsAAV2/4-RS1 shows promise for improving retinal phenotype in the Rs1-KO mouse model. Subretinal delivery was superior to intravitreal. Topical brinzolamide did not improve efficacy. AAV2/4-RS1 may be considered as a potential treatment for XLRS patients.

Maternal dietary choline deficiency alters angiogenesis in fetal mouse hippocampus.

Project description:We examined whether maternal dietary choline modulates angiogenesis in fetal brain. Pregnant C57BL/6 mice were fed either a choline-deficient (CD), control (CT), or choline-supplemented diet (CS) from days 12 to 17 (E12-17) of pregnancy and then fetal brains were studied. In CD fetal hippocampus, proliferation of endothelial cells (EC) was decreased by 32% (p < 0.01 vs. CT or CS) while differentiated EC clusters (expressing factor VIII related antigen (RA)) increased by 25% (p < 0.01 vs. CT or CS). These changes were associated with > 25% decrease in the number of blood vessels in CD fetal hippocampus (p < 0.01 vs. CT and CS), with no change in total cross-sectional area of these blood vessels. Expression of genes for the angiogenic signals derived from both endothelial and neuronal progenitor cells (NPC) was increased in CD fetal hippocampus VEGF C (Vegfc), 2.0-fold, p < 0.01 vs. CT and angiopoietin 2 (Angpt2), 2.1-fold, (p < 0.01 vs. CT)). Similar increased expression was observed in NPC isolated from E14 fetal mouse brains and exposed to low (5 microM), CT (70 microM), or high choline (280 microM) media for 72 h (low choline caused a 9.7-fold increase in relative gene expression of Vegfc (p < 0.001 vs. CT and high) and a 3.4-fold increase in expression of Angpt2, (p < 0.05 vs. CT and high). ANGPT2 protein was increased 42.2% (p < 0.01). Cytosine-phosphate-guanine dinucleotide islands in the proximity of the promoter areas of Vegfc and Angpt2 were hypomethylated in low choline NPC compared to CT NPC (p < 0.01). We conclude that maternal dietary choline intake alters angiogenesis in the developing fetal hippocampus.

Dosage thresholds for AAV2 and AAV8 photoreceptor gene therapy in monkey.

Project description:Gene therapy is emerging as a therapeutic modality for treating disorders of the retina. Photoreceptor cells are the primary cell type affected in many inherited diseases of retinal degeneration. Successfully treating these diseases with gene therapy requires the identification of efficient and safe targeting vectors that can transduce photoreceptor cells. One serotype of adeno-associated virus, AAV2, has been used successfully in clinical trials to treat a form of congenital blindness that requires transduction of the supporting cells of the retina in the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). Here, we determined the dose required to achieve targeting of AAV2 and AAV8 vectors to photoreceptors in nonhuman primates. Transgene expression in animals injected subretinally with various doses of AAV2 or AAV8 vectors carrying a green fluorescent protein transgene was correlated with surgical, clinical, and immunological observations. Both AAV2 and AAV8 demonstrated efficient transduction of RPE, but AAV8 was markedly better at targeting photoreceptor cells. These preclinical results provide guidance for optimal vector and dose selection in future human gene therapy trials to treat retinal diseases caused by loss of photoreceptors.

Systematic gene therapy derived from an investigative study of AAV2/8 vector gene therapy for Fabry disease.

Project description:BackgroundFabry disease (FD) is a progressive multisystemic disease characterized by a lysosomal enzyme deficiency. A lack of α-galactosidase A (α-Gal A) activity results in the progressive systemic accumulation of its substrates, including globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) and globotriaosylsphingosine (Lyso-Gb3), which results in renal, cardiac, and/or cerebrovascular disease and early death. Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) is the current standard of care for FD; however, it has important limitations, including a low half-life, limited distribution, and requirement of lifelong biweekly infusions of recombinant enzymes.MethodsHerein, we evaluated a gene therapy approach using an episomal adeno-associated viral 2/8 (AAV2/8) vector that encodes the human GLA cDNA driven by a liver-specific expression cassette in a mouse model of FD that lacks α-Gal A activity and progressively accumulates Gb3 and Lyso-Gb3 in plasma and tissues.ResultsA pharmacology and toxicology study showed that administration of AAV2/8-hGLA vectors (AAV2/8-hGLA) in FD mice without immunosuppression resulted in significantly increased plasma and tissue α-Gal A activity and substantially normalized Gb3 and Lyso-Gb3 content.ConclusionsMoreover, the plasma enzymatic activity of α-Gal A continued to be stably expressed for up to 38 weeks and sometimes even longer, indicating that AAV2/8-hGLA is effective in treating FD mice, and that α-Gal A is continuously and highly expressed in the liver, secreted into plasma, and absorbed by various tissues. These findings provide a basis for the clinical development of AAV2/8-hGLA.
