Description
아래 실시예들은 뇌혈관 내피세포에 특이적으로 발현되는 프로모터를 포함하고 뇌혈관 내피세포 표적용 나노-펩타이드가 코팅된 AAV 벡터 및 이의 뇌혈관 내피세포 특이적 유전자 전달 용도의 기술에 관한 것이다. The examples below relate to an AAV vector containing a promoter specifically expressed in cerebrovascular endothelial cells and coated with a nano-peptide targeting cerebrovascular endothelial cells, and technology for using the same for cerebrovascular endothelial cell-specific gene delivery.
아데노 관련 바이러스(AAV)는 전임상 및 임상 적용을 위해 선호되는 벡터로서 광범위한 보조, 억제, 및 유전자 편집 이식유전자를 보유하고 있다. 간, 폐 등과 같은 다양한 기관의 세포는 AAV 혈청형의 자연 친화성의 표적이 되어 왔으며, 근육 친화성 AAV는 다양한 실험에서 심장을 표적으로 하는 데에 주로 사용되고, 특히 혈청형 8 또는 9는 동물 모델에서 유전자 편집에 선호된다. 반면, 혈관 세포의 경우 형질도입의 효율이 낮기 때문에 혈관 유전자 치료에서는 AAV가 거의 사용되지 않고 있다.Adeno-associated virus (AAV) is the preferred vector for preclinical and clinical applications and possesses a wide range of assisting, suppressing, and gene editing transgenes. Cells from various organs such as liver, lung, etc. have been targets of natural tropism of AAV serotypes, with myotropic AAV being mainly used to target the heart in various experiments, especially serotypes 8 or 9 in animal models. Preferred for gene editing. On the other hand, in the case of vascular cells, AAV is rarely used in vascular gene therapy because the transduction efficiency is low.
이와 관련하여, AAV2 및 AAV9에 대해 AAV를 내피 세포로 재표적하는 여러 접근 방식이 보고되어 왔으나, 펩티드 삽입은 결국 생체 내에서 큰 혈관(대동맥, 대정맥)의 내피 세포의 형질도입을 나타내었지만 미세혈관 구획에서는 그렇지 않은 것으로 확인되었다. 다른 펩타이드 변이체(PPS, BR1)가 생체 내에서 뇌 미세혈관 내피 세포를 표적화하기 위해 적용되었지만, 심장 또는 골격근과 같은 다른 혈관층에서는 발현이 부족하다는 문제가 있다.In this regard, several approaches to retarget AAV to endothelial cells have been reported for AAV2 and AAV9, although peptide insertion ultimately resulted in transduction of endothelial cells of large vessels (aorta, vena cava) in vivo, but not of microvessels. It was confirmed that this was not the case in the compartment. Other peptide variants (PPS, BR1) have been applied to target brain microvascular endothelial cells in vivo, but lack expression in other vascular beds such as heart or skeletal muscle.
한편, 심혈관 질환 (cardiovascular diseases)은 전 세계 사망 원인 1위의 질환으로 해마다 그 수가 증가하고 있다. 특히 동맥경화증(arteriosclerosis)은 심혈관 질환의 대표적인 질환으로 고혈압, 고지혈증, 흡연, 당뇨병, 비만, 운동부족, 스트레스 등의 원인으로 탄성이 줄어든 노화된 동맥이 혈전을 동반해 좁아지며 발생하는 질병으로, 발생 부위에 따라 뇌혈관 및 경동맥에 생기면 뇌경색 (뇌졸증)을, 심장의 관상동맥에 생기면 동맥경화성 심질환(협심증, 심근경색증)을 유발하며, 이러한 심혈관 질환의 효율적인 치료방법에 대한 필요성이 높은 실정이다.Meanwhile, cardiovascular diseases are the number one cause of death worldwide and the number is increasing every year. In particular, arteriosclerosis is a representative cardiovascular disease that occurs when aged arteries, whose elasticity has decreased due to causes such as high blood pressure, hyperlipidemia, smoking, diabetes, obesity, lack of exercise, and stress, narrow with blood clots. Depending on the area, if it occurs in the cerebral blood vessels and carotid arteries, it causes cerebral infarction (stroke), and if it occurs in the coronary arteries of the heart, it causes arteriosclerotic heart disease (angina, myocardial infarction). There is a high need for efficient treatment methods for these cardiovascular diseases.
실시예들은 심혈관 내피세포에 특이적으로 결합하는 펩타이드가 표면에 구성된 나노입자가 바이러스 캡시드 표면에 코팅된, 재조합 아데노연관바이러스에 관한 것이다.Examples relate to a recombinant adeno-associated virus in which the surface of a viral capsid is coated with nanoparticles composed of a peptide that specifically binds to cardiovascular endothelial cells.
상기 목적을 달성하기 위해, 내피세포에 특이적으로 결합하는 펩타이드가 표면에 구성된 나노입자가 바이러스 캡시드 표면에 코팅된, 재조합 아데노연관바이러스를 제공한다.To achieve the above object, a recombinant adeno-associated virus is provided in which the surface of a viral capsid is coated with nanoparticles composed of a peptide that specifically binds to endothelial cells.
또한, 상기 재조합 아데노연관바이러스의 제조방법을 제공한다.Additionally, a method for producing the recombinant adeno-associated virus is provided.
또한, 상기 재조합 아데노연관바이러스를 포함하는, 죽상동맥경화증의 예방 또는 치료용 조성물을 제공한다.Additionally, a composition for preventing or treating atherosclerosis comprising the recombinant adeno-associated virus is provided.

It can prevent blood vessel occlusion by preventing sticking, and by removing the eNOS gene, it can contract muscles and control blood pressure.

AAV 주입 8주 후, 마우스는 좌심실 압력 부피 루프 기록을 받았다. 이를 위해 MMF(Midazolam 5mg kg-1 체중, Medetomidin 0.5 mg kg-1 체중 및 Fentanyl 0.05 mg kg-1 체중)를 복강내 주사하여 마우스를 마취시켰다. 완전한 진정 후 압력 용적 카테터(Scisense P/V Catheter, 1.2F, 3.5mm 전극 간격, Transonic)를 오른쪽 경동맥을 통해 좌심실로 삽입했다. 혈압이 안정화된 후 LabChart 8 소프트웨어를 사용하여 30개의 P/V 루프를 분석했다. 심장 및 비복근 근육을 이소펜탄에서 급속 동결했다. Cryo-sections는 CRISPR-Cas9 항체(7A9-3A3, Novus Biologicals) 및 CD31 항체(BM4086, Origen)로 염색되었다. 컬럼 정제(Nucleospin Tissue XS, Macherey-Nagel)에 의해 DNA 추출을 수행하였다. 편집된 영역의 PCR은 프라이머 5' GAG GCA ATC TTC GGT GAG TGA CCC T 3' 및 5' AAG GGG AGG AGC ATG GAA GAA AGC A 3'를 사용하여 Q5 중합효소(New England Biolabs)에 의해 수행되었다. 야생형 앰플리콘에 대한 절제된 비율은 ImageJ에 의해 아가로스 겔에서 밴드 강도를 정량화하여 결정되었다.A candidate single guide RNA targeting murine eNOS was cloned into spCas9 plasmid (px459 #62988, Addgene) and subjected to polyethyleneimine transduction (PEI-MAX, Polysciences Inc) by T7 endonuclease assay (New England Biolabs). Efficiency of double-strand break induction was evaluated in Neuro2A cells (CCL-131, ATCC). Two sgRNAs, 5'-GCG AGG GGA CCC CGC CAA CG-3' and 5'-CAA TCC AGG CCC AAT CGG CA-3', were reverse-directed onto a self-complementary AAV transgene plasmid with the opposite pEndo.Cre cassette. Cloned and AAV9 virions were generated as described above (AAV9.pEndo.Cre.sgRNAeNOS). Adult LSL-Cas9 mice (8 weeks old) underwent initial noninvasive blood pressure measurements using the CODA 2 Noninvasive Blood Pressure Measurement System (Kent Scientific). After baseline blood pressure measurement, 2.5 × 10 12 vgs of uncoated AAV9.pEndo.Cre or G2CNN coated AAV9.pEndo.Cre.sgRNAeNOS was injected via tail vein injection. Noninvasive blood pressure measurements were repeated after 4 and 8 weeks. Eight weeks after AAV injection, mice underwent left ventricular pressure volume loop recordings. For this purpose, mice were anesthetized by intraperitoneal injection of MMF (Midazolam 5 mg kg-1 body weight, Medetomidin 0.5 mg kg-1 body weight, and Fentanyl 0.05 mg kg-1 body weight). After complete sedation, a pressure volume catheter (Scisense P/V Catheter, 1.2F, 3.5mm electrode gap, Transonic) was inserted into the left ventricle through the right carotid artery. After blood pressure was stabilized, 30 P/V loops were analyzed using LabChart 8 software. Cardiac and gastrocnemius muscles were snap frozen in isopentane. Cryo-sections were stained with CRISPR-Cas9 antibody (7A9-3A3, Novus Biologicals) and CD31 antibody (BM4086, Origen).

2.1 AAV9의 G22.1 AAV9 G2 CYSCYS 코팅은 지향성을 변경하지 않고 표적 세포 진입을 촉진함 Coating promotes target cell entry without changing orientation
PEG화된 G2-접합체(G2CYS)(이하 G2CYS)는 AAV9 캡시드의 음으로 하전된 표면에 쉽게 결합되었고, 각각의 투과 전자 현미경(TEM) 이미지에서 추정된 입자 직경에 의해 크기가 크게 증가했다. (네이키드 AAV9 캡시드의 경우 32.97 ± 2.24 nm, n = 153 대 35.01 nm ± 2.74, 2.5 × 1012 바이러스 게놈당 450 ng, G2CYS로 코팅된 캡시드의 경우 n = 69 = vgs, p < 0.00001). G2CYS 접합체 코팅은 제타 전위를 음의 표면 전하 값에서 양의 표면 전하 값으로 변경했다(AAV9의 경우 -9.9 ± 1.18 mV 대 4.4 ± 1.19 mV G2CYS AAV9, p < 0.00001. 참고로, AAV9의 양으로 하전된 표면은 시험관내에서 인간 내피 세포 및 비내피 세포(각각 HUVEC 및 HEK293T 세포)의 AAV9-형질 도입을 용량 의존적으로 증가시키기에 충분하였다(도 1 및 2).The PEGylated G2-conjugate (G2 CYS ) (hereafter G2CYS) was readily bound to the negatively charged surface of the AAV9 capsid and its size was significantly increased by the particle diameter estimated from the respective transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images. (32.97 ± 2.24 nm, n = 153 for naked AAV9 capsids vs. 35.01 nm ± 2.74, 450 ng per 2.5 × 10 12 viral genomes, n = 69 for G2CYS-coated capsids = vgs, p < 0.00001). G2CYS conjugate coating changed the zeta potential from negative to positive surface charge values (−9.9 ± 1.18 mV for AAV9 vs. 4.4 ± 1.19 mV for G2CYS AAV9, p < 0.00001. For reference, the positively charged The surface was sufficient to dose-dependently increase AAV9-transduction of human endothelial cells and non-endothelial cells (HUVEC and HEK293T cells, respectively) in vitro (Figures 1 and 2).
그 후, Rosa26 유전자좌의 EGFP(강화된 녹색 형광 단백질) 이식유전자 앞에 floxed tdTomato-transgene 및 floxed stop-codon을 포함하는 mTmG 마우스에서, 적색에서 녹색으로의 전환으로 검출된 AAV9-Cre 형질도입 효능에 대한 G2CYS 코팅의 효과를 조사했다. Cre-뉴클레아제를 통한 두 floxed 대립유전자의 절단은 생체내에서 적색에서 녹색으로의 형광 스위치를 제공한다.Subsequently, in mTmG mice containing a floxed tdTomato-transgene and a floxed stop-codon preceding the enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) transgene at the Rosa26 locus, AAV9-Cre transduction efficacy detected as a red-to-green transition was observed. The effect of G2CYS coating was investigated. Cleavage of both floxed alleles via Cre-nuclease provides a fluorescence switch from red to green in vivo.
특히, 2.5 × 1012 vgs의 전신 적용 시, 각각 47.3% ± 3.6% 및 51.3% ± 5.9%의 골격근세포 및 심근세포 변환율을 얻었으며 AAV9의 근시성을 확인하였다. 그러나 명확한 내피 AAV9-Cre 형질도입은 감지할 수 없었고, 잠재적으로 이웃 심근세포의 형광에 의해 가려졌다. 따라서 Cre-발현을 내피 세포로 제한하는 CMV-프로모터(거대세포 바이러스, pCMV)를 사용하는 엔도글린 프로모터(pEndo)로 전환했다. AAV9.pEndo.Cre를 사용하여 근육 변환을 제거하면 G2CYS 코팅이 있거나 없는 골격근과 심장에서 최소한의 내피 AAV9 변환만 얻었다(도 3의 B).In particular, upon systemic application of 2.5 × 10 12 vgs, skeletal myocyte and cardiomyocyte conversion rates of 47.3% ± 3.6% and 51.3% ± 5.9% were obtained, respectively, confirming the myopic nature of AAV9. However, clear endothelial AAV9-Cre transduction could not be detected, potentially masked by the fluorescence of neighboring cardiomyocytes. Therefore, we switched to the endoglin promoter (pEndo) using the CMV-promoter (cytomegalovirus, pCMV), which limits Cre-expression to endothelial cells. Eliminating muscle transduction using AAV9.pEndo.Cre resulted in only minimal endothelial AAV9 transduction in skeletal muscle and heart with or without G2CYS coating (Figure 3B).
2.2. AAV9-Cre의 G22.2. G2 of AAV9-Cre CNNCNN 코팅으로 시험관 내 및 생체 내에서 Stop-Loxed EGFP 발현 가능 Coating enables expression of Stop-Loxed EGFP in vitro and in vivo
G2CYS의 tropism stability를 극복하기 위해 EP를 붙였다. M13-CX7C 파지 라이브러리를 사용하여 배양된 내피 세포에서 3회의 바이오패닝 후에 우리는 OPN(G2CNN)(이하, G2CNN)을 통해 G2-PAMAM에 연결한 CNNSGMRN 펩타이드(CNN)를 얻었고, 다시 네이티브 AAV9에 비해 G2Cys와 유사하게 크기가 증가했다. (도 1 및 2). p.Endo.Cre를 운반하는 G2CNN AAV9를 mTmG 마우스에 전신 주사한 후 골격근(도 3 C)과 심장의 미세혈관 내피 전달이 크게 증가하는 것을 확인했다. Cre-meditated redto-green 형광 스위치는 EPCNN에 의존했는데, 이는 엔도사이토시스에 대한 히알루로난 수용체(Stab2)에 대한 항체이며, 이는 CNN-모티프와 부분적으로 상동이며, 내피 형질도입을 배제했다(도 3D,E).EP was added to overcome the tropism stability of G2CYS. After three rounds of biopanning in cultured endothelial cells using the M13-CX7C phage library, we obtained the CNNSGMRN peptide (CNN) linked to G2-PAMAM via OPN (G2 CNN ) (hereafter, G2CNN), which was then linked to native AAV9. Compared to G2Cys, the size increased similarly. (Figures 1 and 2). After systemic injection of G2CNN AAV9 carrying p.Endo.Cre into mTmG mice, we found that microvascular endothelial transport in skeletal muscle (Figure 3 C) and heart was significantly increased. The Cre-mediated redto-green fluorescence switch depended on EPCNN, an antibody against the hyaluronan receptor for endocytosis (Stab2), which is partially homologous to the CNN-motif and ruled out endothelial transduction (Figure 3D,E).
Cre 형질도입된 PECAM-1(혈소판 및 내피 세포 부착 분자 1, CD31) 양성 내피 세포의 정량화는 골격근에서 32.9% ± 4.1%, 심장에서 42.7% ± 2.1%에 달했다. 이러한 결과는 전체 심장에서 세포를 분리한 후 PECAM-1 양성 EGFP 발현 세포의 유세포 분석에 의해 확증되었다. 여기에서 G2CNN을 추가하면 마우스에서 PECAM-1 양성 내피 세포의 형질도입이 5.1% ± 2%에서 27.3% ± 7.2%로 증가했다.Quantification of Cre transduced PECAM-1 (platelet and endothelial cell adhesion molecule 1, CD31) positive endothelial cells amounted to 32.9% ± 4.1% in skeletal muscle and 42.7% ± 2.1% in heart. These results were confirmed by flow cytometry analysis of PECAM-1-positive EGFP-expressing cells after isolating cells from whole hearts. Here, the addition of G2CNN increased the transduction of PECAM-1 positive endothelial cells from 5.1% ± 2% to 27.3% ± 7.2% in mice.
CNN 모티프 자체의 높은 선택성 또는 내피-친화 펩타이드에 연결된 G2-OPN 샌드위치의 분자 구성이 관찰된 내피 표적에 필수적인지 여부를 조사하기 위해 대체 EP인 SLRSPPS(= SLR)를 사용했다. 이 펩타이드는 AAV9 캡시드의 아미노산 잔기 A589에서 직접 발현될 때 큰 혈관을 형질도입하는 것으로 설명되었지만, 미세혈관 형질도입을 제공하지 않는다. G2와 연결된 SLR은 항체가 동족 수용체 FGFR3에 대한 G2SLR AAV9의 결합을 방지하지 않는 한 근육 조직에서 미세혈관 내피 세포의 AAV9.pEndo.Cre 형질도입을 유사하게 향상시켰다.To investigate whether the high selectivity of the CNN motif itself or the molecular composition of the G2-OPN sandwich linked to an endothelial-tropic peptide is essential for the observed endothelial targeting, we used an alternative EP, SLRSPPS (=SLR). This peptide has been described to transduce large blood vessels when expressed directly from amino acid residue A589 of the AAV9 capsid, but does not provide for microvascular transduction. SLR linked to G2 similarly enhanced AAV9.pEndo.Cre transduction of microvascular endothelial cells in muscle tissue unless the antibody prevented binding of G2SLR AAV9 to its cognate receptor FGFR3.
다음으로, pEndo.Cre에 대한 G2CNN AAV9 인코딩이 floxed td-Tomato 대립 유전자를 함께 포함하는 mTmG 돼지에 국부적으로 적용될 때 기본 형광 적색(tdTomato)에서 형광 녹색(EGFP)으로 내피 세포를 전환할 수 있는지 여부를 평가했다. 돼지 심장 또는 골격근 내피에서 EGFP 발현을 활성화할 수 없었던 AAV9.pCMV.Cre와 대조적으로, G2CNN AAV9.pEndo.Cre는 말초 및 심장 조직 모두의 미세혈관 내피(PECAM-1+)를 쉽게 형질도입했다(도 4). G2CNN 코팅된 pEndo.Cre 운반 벡터의 국소 주사는 m.quadriceps의 15.8% ± 0.9% 및 심장 근육 모세관 내피의 32.7% ± 2.8%를 형질도입하기에 충분한 반면, 야생형 AAV9의 등가 용량은 이 효과를 유도하지 않았다. 이는 소화된 뒷다리 근육 샘플에서 PECAM-1 양성 EGFP 발현 세포의 유세포 분석에 의해 지지되었다(10.9% ± 3.4% 대 1.8% ± 0.4%, p < 0.05).Next, whether G2CNN AAV9 encoding for pEndo.Cre can switch endothelial cells from native fluorescent red (tdTomato) to fluorescent green (EGFP) when applied topically to mTmG pigs co-containing the floxed td-Tomato allele. evaluated. In contrast to AAV9.pCMV.Cre, which was unable to activate EGFP expression in porcine heart or skeletal muscle endothelium, G2CNN AAV9.pEndo.Cre readily transduced the microvascular endothelium (PECAM-1+) of both peripheral and cardiac tissues ( Figure 4). Local injection of G2CNN-coated pEndo.Cre carrier vector is sufficient to transduce 15.8% ± 0.9% of m.quadriceps and 32.7% ± 2.8% of cardiac muscle capillary endothelium, whereas equivalent doses of wild-type AAV9 induce this effect. Did not do it. This was supported by flow cytometry analysis of PECAM-1 positive EGFP expressing cells in digested hindlimb muscle samples (10.9% ± 3.4% vs. 1.8% ± 0.4%, p < 0.05).
G2CNN 변형으로 AAV9를 전신적으로 적용하는 동안 독성은 확인되지 않았다.No toxicity was identified during systemic application of AAV9 with G2CNN modification.
2.3. 증가된 백혈구 접착을 위한 인공 접착 분자인 S1FG의 AAV 매개 발현2.3. AAV-mediated expression of S1FG, an artificial adhesion molecule for increased leukocyte adhesion.
흐르는 혈액 세포를 내피로 끌어들이는 역할을 하는 접착 분자의 발현은 미세혈관 내피 세포로 엄격하게 통제되며, 이는 내피하 또는 실질 세포로 대체될 수 없다. 따라서, 접착 분자를 인코딩하는 AAV9가 내피 리타게팅 수정에 의해 변경된 경우에만 백혈구를 모집할 것이라는 가설을 테스트했다. G2CNN AAV9가 백혈구를 자극되지 않은 미세혈관 내피로 모집하는 능력을 평가하기 위해 SDF1(= 기질 세포 유래 인자 1) 케모카인 헤드, 프랙트알킨 줄기 및 GPI(=글리코시돌포스파티딜이노시톨) 앵커로 구성된 인공 접착 분자인 이식유전자로 S1FG를 구성했다(도 5A). 부착성 백혈구를 분석하기 위해 생체 내 현미경의 cremaster 모델을 사용하여(도 5 B,C), 수정되지 않은 AAV9.pCMV.S1FG가 대조군(AAV9.pCMV.LacZ)에 비해 백혈구 접착력을 증가시키지 않았다는 것을 발견했다. 그러나, G2CNN AAV9.pEndo.S1FG는 부착성 백혈구를 4.6배 증가시켰다(도 5 C,D). 참고로, 순환하는 백혈구에서 수용체 CXCR4에 대한 SDF-1의 결합을 방해하는 AMD3100의 동시 적용은 이 효과를 완전히 배제했다(도 5 D).The expression of adhesion molecules responsible for attracting flowing blood cells to the endothelium is tightly controlled by microvascular endothelial cells, which cannot be replaced by subendothelial or parenchymal cells. Therefore, we tested the hypothesis that AAV9, encoding an adhesion molecule, would only recruit leukocytes if altered by endothelial retargeting modifications. To assess the ability of G2CNN AAV9 to recruit leukocytes to the unstimulated microvascular endothelium, an artificial adhesive consisting of a SDF1 (= stromal cell-derived factor 1) chemokine head, a fractalkine stem, and a GPI (= glycosidolphosphatidylinositol) anchor S1FG was constructed with a molecular transgene (Figure 5A). Using the cremaster model of intravital microscopy to analyze adherent leukocytes (Figure 5 B,C), we showed that unmodified AAV9.pCMV.S1FG did not increase leukocyte adhesion compared to the control (AAV9.pCMV.LacZ). found. However, G2CNN AAV9.pEndo.S1FG increased adherent leukocytes by 4.6-fold (Figure 5 C,D). Of note, simultaneous application of AMD3100, which interferes with the binding of SDF-1 to its receptor CXCR4 on circulating leukocytes, completely abrogated this effect (Figure 5 D).
2.4. 만성 죽상동맥경화증 모델에서 내피 활성화 예방2.4. Preventing endothelial activation in a chronic atherosclerosis model.
AAV 벡터는 적어도 근세포에서 긴 발현 간격을 갖는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이 기능이 죽상동맥경화증과 같은 만성 염증 상태를 장기적으로 진정시킬 수 있는지 여부를 테스트하기 위해 죽상동맥경화증의 쥐 모델, 즉 대동맥판 형성을 특징으로 하는 고지방식이를 먹인 apoE-/- 마우스를 사용했다(도 6A). 항염증성 단백질 Annexin A1(Anxa1)을 인코딩하는 G2CNN AAV9.pEndo를 활용하여 고지혈증 마우스에서 플라크 형성의 특징인 대동맥 내피로의 백혈구 모집을 방지했다. G2CNNAAV9.pEndo-Anxa1의 전신 투여 시, 코팅되지 않은 AAV9.pEndo-Anxa1과 비교할 때 Anxa1 이식유전자 발현의 강력한 증가를 발견했다. 2.5 × 1012 vgs의 G2CNN AAV9 또는 Anxa1을 인코딩하는 야생형 AAV9를 전신 적용한 2개월 후, 백혈구 모집에 대해 경동맥을 분석했다. G2CNN AAV9.pEndo.Anxa1이 적용된 경우 고지혈증 마우스의 경동맥벽에 모집된 CD11b+-백혈구 중 Ly6C+-단핵구 및 Ly6G+-호중구가 EGFP-대조군 벡터 또는 야생형 AAV9.pCMV.Anxa1과 비교하여 훨씬 적은 양의 Ly6C+-단핵구를 검출했다. (도 6 B,C). 분리된 대동맥 내피 세포에 대한 벌크 RNA 시퀀싱은 G2CNN AAV9.pEndo.Anxa1 형질도입된 동물로부터 EGFP-대조군 벡터 형질도입된 것들로부터 분리된 것과 별개의 클러스터로 분리된 세포를 보여주었다.AAV vectors are known to have long expression intervals, at least in muscle cells. To test whether this function could provide long-term quelling of chronic inflammatory conditions such as atherosclerosis, we used a murine model of atherosclerosis: apoE-/- mice fed a high-fat diet characterized by aortic valve formation. (Figure 6A). G2CNN AAV9.pEndo, encoding the anti-inflammatory protein Annexin A1 (Anxa1), was utilized to prevent leukocyte recruitment to the aortic endothelium, a hallmark of plaque formation in hyperlipidemic mice. Upon systemic administration of G2CNNAAV9.pEndo-Anxa1, we found a strong increase in Anxa1 transgene expression compared to uncoated AAV9.pEndo-Anxa1. Two months after systemic application of 2.5 × 10 12 vgs of G2CNN AAV9 or wild-type AAV9 encoding Anxa1, carotid arteries were analyzed for leukocyte recruitment. Among CD11b+-leukocytes recruited to the carotid artery wall of hyperlipidemic mice when G2CNN AAV9.pEndo.Anxa1 was applied, significantly lower amounts of Ly6C+-monocytes and Ly6G+-neutrophils compared to EGFP-control vector or wild-type AAV9.pCMV.Anxa1. was detected. (Figure 6 B,C). Bulk RNA sequencing of isolated aortic endothelial cells showed cells from G2CNN AAV9.pEndo.Anxa1 transduced animals separated into distinct clusters from those isolated from EGFP-control vector transduced ones.
2.5. AAV는 Cas9 매개 내피 산화질소 합성효소 절제를 통해 혈압 조절에 영향을 미침2.5. AAV affects blood pressure regulation through Cas9-mediated endothelial nitric oxide synthase ablation.
전신 혈압 조절은 중요한 기능으로 인해 복잡하고 다층적이며 중복되는 현상이다. 그럼에도, 내피 산화질소 합성효소(eNOS)는 인접한 평활근 세포 세포골격(도 7 A)을 이완시키고 생리학적 범위에서 혈압을 유지하는 기체 자동 산화질소를 방출함으로써 미세순환 세동맥의 혈관 확장에 중심 역할을 한다.Systemic blood pressure regulation is a complex, multilayered, and overlapping phenomenon due to its important functions. Nonetheless, endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) plays a central role in vasodilation of microcirculatory arterioles by releasing gaseous auto-nitric oxide that relaxes the adjacent smooth muscle cell cytoskeleton (Figure 7 A) and maintains blood pressure in the physiological range. .
여기에서 내피 NOS의 G2CNN AAV9-gRNA 매개 녹아웃이 전신 혈압을 증가시킬 수 있는지 여부를 Cas9-트랜스제닉(Cas9-tg) 마우스에서 조사했다(도 7 A). Cas9-tg 마우스에서 엑손 6과 10 사이를 절제하도록 설계된 G2CNN AAV9-gRNA가 비침습적 측정에서 전신 형질도입 2개월 후 평균 동맥압을 23.7 ± 2.3mmHg까지 증가시키기에 충분하다는 것을 발견했다 (대조군 동물의 9.4 ± 4.7 mmHg 대비). 이완기 및 수축기 혈압에 대해 유사한 결과가 얻어졌다(도 7 B-D). 2개월 시점에서 심장 카테터 삽입이 수행되어 모의 형질도입된 대조군과 비교하여 G2CNN AAV9.gRNAeN°S 그룹의 혈압 증가를 확인했다(도 7 E). 풍부한 Cas9 발현이 관찰된 이들 동물의 내피 세포에서(도 7 F), eNOS의 편집은 CD31+ 내피 세포에서 eNOS 대립유전자의 20.7% ± 1.6%에서 얻어졌다(도 7 G).Here, we investigated in Cas9-transgenic (Cas9-tg) mice whether G2CNN AAV9-gRNA-mediated knockout of endothelial NOS could increase systemic blood pressure ( Figure 7 A). We found that G2CNN AAV9-gRNA, designed to excise between exons 6 and 10 in Cas9-tg mice, was sufficient to increase mean arterial pressure by 23.7 ± 2.3 mmHg 2 months after systemic transduction in non-invasive measurements (compared to 9.4 in control animals). ± 4.7 mmHg vs.). Similar results were obtained for diastolic and systolic blood pressure (Figure 7 B-D). At 2 months, cardiac catheterization was performed to confirm the increase in blood pressure in the G2CNN AAV9.gRNAeN°S group compared to the mock-transduced control group (Figure 7 E). In the endothelial cells of these animals, where abundant Cas9 expression was observed (Figure 7 F), editing of eNOS was obtained in 20.7% ± 1.6% of the eNOS alleles in CD31+ endothelial cells (Figure 7 G).
심장 및 근육 내피 외에도 G2CNN으로 코팅된 AAV9 바이러스는 대동맥, 간, 횡격막, 비장 및 뇌를 포함한 다양한 조직 특이적 CD31+ 내피 세포를 형질도입했다. 그러나, 골격근 및 심장 조직의 미세혈관 전달의 양에서, 이들 조직이 AAV9 혈청형의 친화성 내에 있기 때문에 원래의 친화성이 주로 표적 조직의 내피 쪽으로 벡터를 조종할 가능성을 높였다. 수반되는 G2CNN-벡터의 근섬유 형질도입은 그 특징을 나타내었다. 또한, 형광 표지된 벡터 캡시드의 분석을 통해, EP 덕분에 이웃 내피 세포에 끌리는 G2CNN AAV9의 제자리에 온전한 근위축의 개념에 맞는 abluminal plasmalemma를 통한 진입이 제안되었다.In addition to cardiac and muscle endothelium, G2CNN-coated AAV9 virus transduced a variety of tissue-specific CD31+ endothelial cells, including aorta, liver, diaphragm, spleen, and brain. However, the amount of microvascular delivery in skeletal muscle and cardiac tissue raised the possibility that the original tropism would steer the vector primarily toward the endothelium of the target tissue since these tissues are within the tropism of the AAV9 serotype. Muscle fiber transduction of the concomitant G2CNN-vector was characterized. Additionally, analysis of fluorescently labeled vector capsids suggested entry through the abluminal plasmalemma, fitting the concept of intact proximal cells in situ for G2CNN AAV9, which is attracted to neighboring endothelial cells by virtue of its EP.
따라서, AAV 캡시드를 G2-EP로 코팅하면 내피 세포에 대한 재표적화가 이루어지며, 이러한 결과는 혈관 질환 모델, 예를 들어, 죽상경화증 마우스와 같은 플라크 표적화, 유전성 혈관 질환 (마르판 증후군 또는 대동맥류 치료)이 있는 마우스의 대동맥 표적화에서 보다 광범위한 AAV 적용 가능성 제시할 수 있다. 또한, 미세혈관 성장 및 성숙을 위한 내피 형질도입은 내피 재표적 AAV를 통해 달성될 수 있다.Therefore, coating AAV capsids with G2-EP results in retargeting to endothelial cells, and this result can be used in vascular disease models, e.g., plaque targeting such as atherosclerosis mice, inherited vascular diseases such as Marfan syndrome or aortic aneurysm. Targeting the aorta of mice with treatment) may suggest the possibility of broader AAV application. Additionally, endothelial transduction for microvascular growth and maturation can be achieved through endothelial retargeting AAV.
