Project description:Gaucher disease type 1, an inherited lysosomal storage disorder, is caused by mutations in GBA1 leading to defective glucocerebrosidase (GCase) function and consequent excess accumulation of glucosylceramide/glucosylsphingosine in visceral organs. Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) with the biosimilars, imiglucerase (imig) or velaglucerase alfa (vela) improves/reverses the visceral disease. Comparative transcriptomic effects (microarray and mRNA-Seq) of no ERT and ERT (imig or vela) were done with liver, lung, and spleen from mice having Gba1 mutant alleles, termed D409V/null. Disease-related molecular effects, dynamic ranges, and sensitivities were compared between mRNA-Seq and microarrays and their respective analytic tools, i.e. Mixed Model ANOVA (microarray), and DESeq and edgeR (mRNA-Seq). While similar gene expression patterns were observed with both platforms, mRNA-Seq identified more differentially expressed genes (DEGs) (?3-fold) than the microarrays. Among the three analytic tools, DESeq identified the maximum number of DEGs for all tissues and treatments. DESeq and edgeR comparisons revealed differences in DEGs identified. In 9V/null liver, spleen and lung, post-therapy transcriptomes approximated WT, were partially reverted, and had little change, respectively, and were concordant with the corresponding histological and biochemical findings. DEG overlaps were only 8-20% between mRNA-Seq and microarray, but the biological pathways were similar. Cell growth and proliferation, cell cycle, heme metabolism, and mitochondrial dysfunction were most altered with the Gaucher disease process. Imig and vela differentially affected specific disease pathways. Differential molecular responses were observed in direct transcriptome comparisons from imig- and vela-treated tissues. These results provide cross-validation for the mRNA-Seq and microarray platforms, and show differences between the molecular effects of two highly structurally similar ERT biopharmaceuticals.

Project description:The comparative whole genome transcriptome effects of two similar pharmaceuticals, imig or vela, on a Gaucher disease mouse model, 9V/null, were evaluated by two commonly used platforms, mRNA-Seq and microarray. Also, statistical methods, DESeq and edgeR for mRNA-Seq and Mixed Model ANOVA for microarray, were compared for differential gene expression detection. The biological pathways were similar between two platforms. Cell growth and proliferation, cell cycle, heme metabolism, and mitochondrial dysfunction were the most altered functions associated with the disease process. Although the two biopharmaceuticals have a very similar structure and function, imig- and vela- treatment in the mice differentially affected disease-specific pathways indicating the action of the two drugs on the disease process in the visceral tissues of Gaucher mouse model differ significantly at the molecular level. This study provides a comprehensive comparison between the two platforms (mRNA-Seq and microarray) for gene expression analysis and addresses the contribution of the different methods involved in the analysis of such data. The results also provide insights into the differential molecular effects of two similar biopharmaceuticals for Gaucher disease treatment.

Project description:Velaglucerase alfa is a glucocerebrosidase produced by gene activation technology in a human fibroblast cell line (HT-1080), and it is indicated as an enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) for the treatment of Gaucher disease type 1 (GD1). This multicenter, open-label, 12-month study examined the safety and efficacy of velaglucerase alfa in patients with GD1 previously receiving imiglucerase. Eligible patients, ≥2 years old and clinically stable on imiglucerase therapy, were switched to velaglucerase alfa at a dose equal to their prior imiglucerase dose. Infusion durations were 1 hr every other week. Forty patients received velaglucerase alfa (18 male, 22 female; four previously splenectomized; age range 9-71 years). Velaglucerase alfa was generally well tolerated with most adverse events (AEs) of mild or moderate severity. The three most frequently reported AEs were headache (12 of 40 patients), arthralgia (9 of 40 patients), and nasopharyngitis (8 of 40 patients). No patients developed antibodies to velaglucerase alfa. There was one serious AE considered treatment-related: a grade 2 anaphylactoid reaction within 30 min of the first infusion. The patient withdrew; this was the only AE-related withdrawal. Hemoglobin concentrations, platelet counts, and spleen and liver volumes remained stable through 12 months. In conclusion, adult and pediatric patients with GD1, previously treated with imiglucerase, successfully transitioned to velaglucerase alfa, which was generally well tolerated and demonstrated efficacy over 12 months' treatment consistent with that observed in the velaglucerase alfa phase 3 clinical trial program.

Project description:Gaucher disease type 1 is an inborn error of metabolic disease with the defective activity of the lysosomal enzyme acid b-glucosidase (GCase). Enzyme replacement/reconstitution therapy (ERT), infusions with purified recombinant GCases, is efficacious in reversing hematologic, hepatic, splenic, and bony disease manifestations in Gaucher type 1 patients. However, the tissue specific molecular events in Gaucher disease and their response to therapy are not known yet. To explore the molecular events underlying GCase treatment, we evaluated the tissue-specific gene expression profiles and molecular responses in our Gaucher disease mouse model, which were treated with two FDA approved commercially available GCases, imiglucerase (imig) and velaglucerase alfa (vela). Using microarray and mRNA-Seq techniques, differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified in the spleen and liver by the direct comparison of imig- vs. vela-treated mice. Among them three gene expression networks were derived from these spleens: 1) cell division/proliferation, 2) hematopoietic system and 3) inflammatory/macrophage response. Our study showed the occurrence of differential molecular pathophysiologic processes in the mice treated with imig compared with vela even though these two biosimilars had the same histological and biochemical efficacy
