Characterization of microglia polarization states under targeted AAV transduction using bulk and single cell RNA sequencing

ABSTRACT: The study of microglia biology and the development of microglia-based gene therapies are in urgent need of efficient and safe vehicles for microglia transgene delivery. To address this, we developed adeno-associated virus (AAV) variants that mediate efficient in vitro and in vivo microglia transduction via directed evolution of the AAV capsid protein. To assess the effect of AAV transduction on microglia, we carried out bulk RNAseq in primary microglia and found that microglia transduced by AAV remain close to homeostatic state. Furthermore, single-cell RNA sequencing showed that the AAV-MG variants mediate safe in vivo transgene delivery without inducing microglia immune activation. These AAV variants should facilitate the applications of various genetically-encoded sensors and effectors in studying microglia-related biology and therapeutic interventions.

Casein kinase 2 activity is a host restriction factor for AAV transduction

Project description:Despite rapid progress in the development of new therapies based on adeno-associated viral vectors (AAVs) in recent years, successful transduction of the human heart remains challenging. So far, the mechanisms that impede AAV transduction, especially in humans are poorly understood, hampering the introduction of new, effective gene therapy strategies. Therefore, the aim of this study was to identify and overcome the main cellular barriers to successful transduction in the heart, using iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes (iPSC-CMs), cardiac fibroblasts (iPSC-CFs), and primary endothelial cells (HAECs) to model vector-host interactions. Through phosphoproteome analysis of AAV9-transduced iPSC-CFs we established that casein kinase 2 (CK2) signalling is one of the most significantly affected pathways upon AAV exposure. Importantly, transient inhibition of CK2 activity with silmitasertib substantially enhanced the transduction rate of AAV2, AAV6 and AAV9 in all tested cell types (iPSC-CMs, iPSC-CFs and HAECs), demonstrating the versatility of this approach. CK2 inhibition improved the trafficking of AAVs through the cytoplasm and impaired DNA-damage response through destabilisation of Mre11, sensor of dsDNA breaks, that directly binds the ITRs of the vector genome. Silmitasertib treatment also allowed for improvement of transgene expression in already transduced iPSC-CFs, which retain AAV genomes in a functional, but probably silent form. Furthermore, our analysis revealed that AAV transduction may interfere with RNA processing pathways, identifying matrin-3 as a necessary factor for efficient transgene delivery. In summary, presented study provides new insights into the current understanding of the host-AAV vector interaction, identifying CK2 activity as a key barrier to efficient transduction and transgene expression, therefore offering a promising strategy to improve the outcome of AAV-based therapies in the future.

An evolved AAV variant enables efficient genetic engineering of murine T cells

Project description:Precise targeting of large transgenes to T cells using homology-directed repair has been transformative for adoptive cell therapies and T cell biology. Non-toxic delivery of DNA templates via adeno-associated virus (AAV) has greatly improved knock-in efficiencies, but the tropism of current AAV serotypes restricts their use to human T cells employed in immunodeficient mouse models. To enable targeted knock-ins in murine T cells, we evolved Ark313, a synthetic AAV that exhibits high transduction efficiency in murine T cells. We performed a genome-wide knockout screen and identified QA2 as an essential factor for Ark313 infection. We demonstrate that Ark313 can be used for nucleofection-free DNA delivery, CRISPR/Cas9-mediated knockouts, and targeted integration of large transgenes. Ark313 enables pre-clinical modeling of Trac-targeted CAR-T and transgenic TCR-T cells in immunocompetent models. Efficient gene targeting in murine T cells holds great potential for improved cell therapies and opens new avenues in experimental T cell immunology.

Genotoxicity after adeno-associated virus (AAV) gene therapy is dependent upon dose, treatment age and enhancer-promoter selection

Project description:AAV gene therapy has recently been approved for clinical use and shown to be efficacious and safe in a growing number of clinical trials. However, the safety of AAV as a gene therapy has been challenged by a few studies that documented hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after AAV gene delivery in mice. The association between AAV and HCC has been difficult to reconcile and is the subject of intense debate because numerous AAV studies have not reported toxicity. Here, we report a comprehensive study of HCC in a large number of mice following therapeutic AAV gene delivery. Using a sensitive high-throughput integration site-capture technique and global expressional analysis, we found that AAV integration into the Rian locus and the over-expression of a proximal gene, Rtl1, were associated with HCC. In addition, we identify a number of genes with differential expression that maybe useful in the study, diagnosis and treatment of HCC. We demonstrate that AAV vector dose, enhancer-promoter selection, and the timing of gene delivery are the defining factors in AAV-mediated insertional mutagenesis. Our results help explain the AAV-mediated genotoxicity previously observed and have important implications for the design of both safer AAV vectors and gene therapy studies. To investigate the possibility that insertional mutagenesis by AAV contributed to the development of HCC, we collected normal and tumor tissues from adult mouse livers that received AAV injection at a neonatal stage.

Transcriptome-wide analysis of the RNA content of purified Nanoblades

Project description:Programmable nucleases have enabled rapid and accessible genome engineering in eukaryotic cells and living organisms. However, their delivery into target cells can be technically challenging when working with primary cells or in vivo. Using engineered murine leukemia virus-like particles loaded with Cas9/sgRNA ribonucleoproteins (“Nanoblades”), we were able to induce efficient genome-editing in cell lines and primary cells including human induced pluripotent stem cells, human hematopoietic stem cells and mouse bone-marrow cells. Transgene-free Nanoblades were also capable of in vivo genome-editing in mouse embryos and in the liver of injected mice. Nanoblades can be complexed with donor DNA for “all-in-one” homology-directed repair or programmed with modified Cas9 variants to mediate transcriptional up-regulation of target genes. Nanoblades preparation process is simple, relatively inexpensive and can be easily implemented in any laboratory equipped for cellular biology.

Whole brain delivery of an instability-prone Mecp2 transgene improves behavioral and molecular pathological defects in mouse models of Rett syndrome

Project description:Rett syndrome is an incurable neurodevelopmental disorder caused by mutations in the gene encoding for methyl-CpG binding-protein 2 (MeCP2). Gene therapy for this disease presents inherent hurdles since MECP2 is expressed throughout the brain and its duplication leads to severe neurological conditions as well. Herein, we use the AAV-PHP.eB to deliver an instability-prone Mecp2 (iMecp2) transgene cassette which, increasing RNA destabilization and inefficient protein translation of the viral Mecp2 transgene, limits supraphysiological Mecp2 protein levels. Intravenous injections of the PHP.eB-iMecp2 virus in symptomatic Mecp2 mutant mice significantly improved locomotor activity, lifespan and gene expression normalization. Remarkably, PHP.eB-iMecp2 administration was well tolerated in female Mecp2 mutant or in wild-type animals. In contrast, we observed a strong immune response to the transgene in treated male Mecp2 mutant mice that was overcome by immunosuppression. Overall, PHP.eB-mediated delivery of iMecp2 provided widespread and efficient gene transfer maintaining physiological Mecp2 protein levels in the brain.

scAAVengr, a transcriptome-based pipeline for quantitative ranking of engineered AAVs with single-cell resolution

Project description:Adeno-associated virus (AAV)-mediated gene therapies are rapidly advancing to the clinic, and AAV engineering has resulted in vectors with increased ability to deliver therapeutic genes. Although the choice of vector is critical, quantitative comparison of AAVs, especially in large animals, remains challenging. Here, we developed an efficient single-cell AAV engineering pipeline (scAAVengr) to simultaneously quantify and rank efficiency of competing AAV vectors across all cell types in the same animal. To demonstrate proof-of-concept for the scAAVengr workflow, we quantified – with cell-type resolution – the abilities of naturally occurring and newly engineered AAVs to mediate gene expression in primate retina following intravitreal injection. A top performing variant identified using this pipeline, K912, was used to deliver SaCas9 and edit the rhodopsin gene in macaque retina, resulting in editing efficiency similar to infection rates detected by the scAAVengr workflow. scAAVengr was then used to identify top-performing AAV variants in mouse brain, heart and liver following systemic injection. These results validate scAAVengr as a powerful method for development of AAV vectors.
