Project description:Microbial systems have been synthetically engineered to deploy therapeutic payloads in vivo. With emerging evidence that bacteria naturally home to tumors and modulate anti-tumor immunity one promising application is the development of bacterial vectors as precision cancer vaccines. In this study, we engineered probiotic E. coli Nissle 1917 (EcN) as an anti-tumor vaccination platform optimized for enhanced production and cytosolic delivery of neoepitope-containing peptide arrays, with increased susceptibility to blood clearance and phagocytosis. These features enhance both safety and immunogenicity, achieving a system which drives potent and specific T cell–mediated anti‑cancer immunity that effectively controls or eliminates tumor growth and extends survival in advanced murine primary and metastatic solid tumors. We demonstrate that the elicited anti-tumor immune response involves extensive priming and activation of neoantigen-specific CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, broader activation of both T and NK cells, and a reduction of tumor-infiltrating immunosuppressive myeloid and regulatory T and B cell populations. Taken together, this work leverages the advantages of living medicines to deliver arrays of tumor‑specific neoantigen–derived epitopes within the optimal context to induce specific, effective, and durable systemic anti-tumor immunity.

Project description:In contrast to the processes controlling the complexation, targeting and uptake of polycationic gene delivery vectors, the molecular mechanisms regulating their cytoplasmic dissociation remains poorly understood. Upon cytosolic entry, vectors become exposed to a complex, concentrated mixture of molecules and biomacromolecules. In this report, we characterise the cytoplasmic interactome associated with a polycationic vector based on poly(dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate) (PDMAEMA) and poly(2-methacrylolyloxyethyltrimethylammonium chloride) (PMETAC) brushes. To quantify the contribution of different classes of low molar mass molecules and biomacromolecules to RNA release, we develop a kinetic model based on competitive binding. Our results identify the importance of competition from highly charged biomacromolecules, such as cytosolic RNA, as a primary regulator of RNA release. Importantly, our data indicate the presence of ribosome associated proteins, proteins associated with translation and transcription factors that may underly a broader impact of polycationic vectors on translation. In addition, we bring evidence that molecular crowding modulates competitive binding and demonstrate how the modulation of such interactions, for example via quaternisation or the design of charge-shifting moieties, impacts on the long-term transfection efficiency of polycationic vectors. Understanding the mechanism regulating cytosolic dissociation will enable the improved design of cationic vectors for long term gene release and therapeutic efficacy.

Project description:Lentiviral vectors (LV) have become the dominant tool for stable gene transfer into lymphocytes including chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) gene delivery to T cells, a major breakthrough in cancer therapy. Yet, room for improvement remains, especially for the latest LV generations delivering genes selectively into T cell subtypes, a key requirement for in vivo CAR T cell generation. Towards improving gene transfer rates with these vectors, we conducted whole transcriptome analyses on human T lymphocytes after exposure to CAR-encoding conventional vector VSV-LV, and vectors targeted to CD8+ (CD8-LV) or CD4+ T cells (CD4-LV). Genes related to quiescence and antiviral restriction were found to be upregulated in CAR-negative cells exposed to all types of LVs. Down-modulation of various antiviral restriction factors including the interferon-induced transmembrane proteins (IFITMs) was achieved with rapamycin as verified by mass spectrometry (LC-MS). Strikingly, rapamycin enhanced transduction by up to 7-fold for CD8-LV and CD4-LV without compromising CAR T cell activities, but did not improve VSV-LV. When administered to humanized mice, CD8-LV resulted in higher rates of GFP gene delivery as well as faster in vivo CAR T cell generation and tumor control. The data favors multi-omics approaches for improvements in gene delivery.

Project description:In the last decade, the interest in extracellular vesicles (EVs) as safe and biocompatible nano-transporters has risen dramatically, as these nanoparticles can be used to increase the delivery efficiency rate and reduce secondary effects. However, the difficulty for its obtention in large quantities represents a major drawback for its utilization. Also, EVs are currently mainly derived from immortalized cell lines, which may arise safety problems when administered to humans. Hence, the shift from cell lines to safer EVs sources would suppose a step ahead for its use as delivery vectors in the biotechnology and biomedical research fields. Here, we provide proteomics characterization of EVs isolated by molecular weight cut-off filtration (MWCO) from four different fermented food industry by-products (FFIBPs), including: i) yogurt whey (named as milk in the raw data files), symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast (SCOBY) from kombucha fermented tea (named as Com in the raw data files), wine pomace (named as Wine in the raw data files) and brewer spend yeast (named as beer in the raw data files).This proteomics characterization will provide key information about composition of by-product derived EVs (BP-EV) uncovering a safe and sustainable EVs source with potential as functional EVs delivery vectors.

Project description:Neoantigen-reactive cytotoxic T lymphocytes play a vital role in precise cancer cell elimination. In this study, we demonstrate the effectiveness of personalized neoantigen-based T cell therapy in inducing tumor regression in two patients suffering from heavily-burdened metastatic ovarian cancer. Our approach involved the development of a robust pipeline for ex vivo expansion of neoantigen-reactive T lymphocytes. Neoantigen peptides were designed and synthesized based on the somatic mutations of the tumors and their predicted HLA binding affinities. These peptides were then presented to T lymphocytes through co-culture with neoantigen-loaded dendritic cells for ex vivo expansion. Subsequent to cell therapy, both patients exhibited significant reductions in tumor marker levels and experienced substantial tumor regression. One patient achieved repeated cancer regression through infusions of T cell products generated from newly identified neoantigens. Transcriptomic analyses revealed a remarkable increase in neoantigen-reactive cytotoxic lymphocytes in the peripheral blood of the patients following cell therapy. These cytotoxic T lymphocytes expressed polyclonal T cell receptors (TCR) against neoantigens, along with abundant cytotoxic proteins and pro-inflammatory cytokines. The efficacy of neoantigen targeting was significantly associated with the immunogenicity and TCR polyclonality. Notably, the neoantigen-specific TCR clonotypes persisted in the peripheral blood after cell therapy. Our findings indicate that personalized neoantigen-based T cell therapy triggers cytotoxic lymphocytes expressing polyclonal TCR against ovarian cancer, suggesting its promising potential in cancer immunotherapy.

Project description:While small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) have been rapidly appreciated to induce gene silencing, efficient vectors for primary cells and for systemic in vivo delivery are lacking. We here present a novel chemically modified cell-penetrating peptide named PepFect6 (PF6) for efficient delivery of siRNAs into various types of cells including e.g. lymphocyte suspension cells and primary embryonic stem cells. Stable PF6/siRNA nano- particles rapidly enter entire cell populations resulting in strong and persistent RNAi responses, without associated transcriptomic or proteomic changes. In contrast to the majority of chemical reagents, PF6-mediated delivery is independent of cell confluence and, in most cases, not significantly hampered by the presence of serum. Finally, strong RNAi responses are observed in two different in vivo models following systemic delivery of PF6/siRNA in mice. Taken together, PF6 is an efficient siRNA delivery vector with superior delivery properties as compared to other tested transfection reagents.

Project description:Adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors are important delivery platforms for therapeutic genome editing but are severely constrained by cargo limits, especially for large effectors like Cas9s. Simultaneous delivery of multiple vectors can limit dose and efficacy and increase safety risks. The use of compact effectors has enabled single-AAV delivery of Cas9s with 1-3 guides for edits that use end-joining repair pathways, but many precise edits that correct disease-causing mutations in vivo require homology-directed repair (HDR) templates. Here, we describe single-vector, ~4.8-kb AAV platforms that express Nme2Cas9 and either two sgRNAs to produce segmental deletions, or a single sgRNA with an HDR template. We also examine the utility of Nme2Cas9 target sites in the vector for self-inactivation. We demonstrate that these platforms can effectively treat two disease models [type I hereditary tyrosinemia (HT-I) and mucopolysaccharidosis type I (MPS-I)] in mice. These results will enable single-vector AAVs to achieve diverse therapeutic genome editing outcomes.
