Definitions
- the present invention relates, in part, to methods, compositions, and products for producing and delivering nucleic acids to cells, tissues, organs, and patients, methods for expressing proteins in cells, tissues, organs, and patients, and cells, therapeutics, and cosmetics produced using these methods, compositions, and products.
- RNA Ribonucleic acid
- Ribonucleic acid is ubiquitous in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, where it encodes genetic information in the form of messenger RNA, binds and transports amino acids in the form of transfer RNA, assembles amino acids into proteins in the form of ribosomal RNA, and performs numerous other functions including gene expression regulation in the forms of microRNA and long non-coding RNA.
- RNA can be produced synthetically by methods including direct chemical synthesis and in vitro transcription, and can be administered to patients for therapeutic use.
- previously described synthetic RNA molecules are unstable and trigger a potent innate-immune response in human cells.
- methods for efficient non-viral delivery of nucleic acids to patients, organs, tissues, and cells in vivo have not been previously described.
- the many drawbacks of existing synthetic RNA technologies and methods for delivery of nucleic acids make them undesirable for therapeutic or cosmetic use.
- RNA-based reprogramming methods have been described (see, e.g., Angel. MIT Thesis. 2008. 1-56; Angel et al. PLoS ONE. 2010. 5, 107; Warren et al. Cell Stem Cell. 2010. 7, 618-630; Angel.
- RNA-based reprogramming methods are slow, unreliable, and inefficient when performed on adult cells, require many transfections (resulting in significant expense and opportunity for error), can reprogram only a limited number of cell types, can reprogram cells to only a limited number of cell types, require the use of immunosuppressants, and require the use of multiple human-derived components, including blood-derived HSA and human fibroblast feeders.
- the many drawbacks of previously disclosed RNA-based reprogramming methods make them undesirable for research, therapeutic or cosmetic use.
- DNA-binding domains that can recognize specific DNA sequences, for example, zinc fingers (ZFs) and transcription activator-like effectors (TALEs). Fusion proteins containing one or more of these DNA-binding domains and the cleavage domain of FokI endonuclease can be used to create a double-strand break in a desired region of DNA in a cell (see, e.g., US Patent Appl. Pub. No. US 2012/0064620, US Patent Appl. Pub. No. US 2011/0239315, U.S. Pat. No. 8,470,973, US Patent Appl. Pub. No. US 2013/0217119, U.S. Pat. No. 8,420,782, US Patent Appl. Pub.

- RNA comprising non-canonical nucleotides leads to the expression of a protein encoded by the RNA, the protein often being one of therapeutic benefit (sometimes called the “target” or “protein of interest”). Further, this expression of therapeutic protein is achieved with minimal or negligible toxicity.
- nucleic acid drugs include a dsDNA molecule, a ssDNA molecule, a RNA molecule, a dsRNA molecule, a ssRNA molecule, a plasmid, an oligonucleotide, a synthetic RNA molecule, a miRNA molecule, an mRNA molecule, and an siRNA molecule.

- the present invention relates to nucleic acid drugs, which, in various embodiments are RNA comprising one or more non-canonical nucleotides.
- Certain non-canonical nucleotides when incorporated into RNA molecules, can reduce the toxicity of the RNA molecules, in part, without wishing to be bound by theory, by interfering with binding of proteins that detect exogenous nucleic acids, for example, protein kinase R, Rig-1 and the oligoadenylate synthetase family of proteins.
- Non-canonical nucleotides that have been reported to reduce the toxicity of RNA molecules when incorporated therein include: pseudouridine, 5-methyluridine, 2-thiouridine, 5-methylcytidine, N6-methyladenosine, and certain combinations thereof.

- N6-methyladenosine N6-methyladenosine
- RNA molecules containing these nucleotides can reduce the efficiency with which RNA molecules can be translated into protein, limiting the utility of RNA molecules containing these nucleotides in applications that require protein expression.
- pseudouridine can be completely substituted for uridine in RNA molecules without reducing the efficiency with which the synthetic RNA molecules can be translated into protein, in certain situations, for example, when performing frequent, repeated transfections, synthetic RNA molecules containing only adenosine, guanosine, cytidine, and pseudouridine can exhibit excessive toxicity.

- Synthetic RNA and Nucleic-Acid Therapeutics
- Ribonucleic acid (RNA) is ubiquitous in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, where it encodes genetic information in the form of messenger RNA, binds and transports amino acids in the form of transfer RNA, assembles amino acids into proteins in the form of ribosomal RNA, and performs numerous other functions including gene expression regulation in the forms of microRNA and long non-coding RNA. RNA can be produced synthetically by methods including direct chemical synthesis and in vitro transcription, and can be administered to patients for therapeutic use. However, previously described synthetic RNA molecules are unstable and trigger a potent innate-immune response in human cells. In addition, methods for efficient non-viral delivery of nucleic acids to patients, organs, tissues, and cells in vivo have not been previously described. The many drawbacks of existing synthetic RNA technologies and methods for delivery of nucleic acids make them undesirable for therapeutic or cosmetic use.
- Cell Reprogramming and Cell-Based Therapies
- Cells can be reprogrammed by exposing them to specific extracellular cues and/or by ectopic expression of specific proteins, microRNAs, etc. While several reprogramming methods have been previously described, most that rely on ectopic expression require the introduction of exogenous DNA, which can carry mutation risks. DNA-free reprogramming methods based on direct delivery of reprogramming proteins have been reported. However, these methods are too inefficient and unreliable for commercial use. In addition, RNA-based reprogramming methods have been described (see, e.g., Angel. MIT Thesis. 2008. 1-56; Angel et al. PLoS ONE. 2010. 5, 107; Warren et al. Cell Stem Cell. 2010. 7, 618-630; Angel. MIT Thesis. 2011. 1-89; and Lee et al. Cell. 2012. 151, 547-558; the contents of all of which are hereby incorporated by reference). However, existing RNA-based reprogramming methods are slow, unreliable, and inefficient when performed on adult cells, require many transfections (resulting in significant expense and opportunity for error), can reprogram only a limited number of cell types, can reprogram cells to only a limited number of cell types, require the use of immunosuppressants, and require the use of multiple human-derived components, including blood-derived HSA and human fibroblast feeders. The many drawbacks of previously disclosed RNA-based reprogramming methods make them undesirable for research, therapeutic or cosmetic use.
- Gene Editing Several naturally occurring proteins contain DNA-binding domains that can recognize specific DNA sequences, for example, zinc fingers (ZFs) and transcription activator-like effectors (TALEs). Fusion proteins containing one or more of these DNA-binding domains and the cleavage domain of FokI endonuclease can be used to create a double-strand break in a desired region of DNA in a cell (see, e.g., US Patent Appl. Pub. No. US 2012/0064620, US Patent Appl. Pub. No. US 2011/0239315, U.S. Pat. No. 8,470,973, US Patent Appl. Pub. No. US 2013/0217119, U.S. Pat. No. 8,420,782, US Patent Appl. Pub. No. US 2011/0301073, US Patent Appl. Pub. No. US 2011/0145940, U.S. Pat. Nos. 8,450,471, 8,440,431, 8,440,432, and US Patent Appl. Pub. No. 2013/0122581, the contents of all of which are hereby incorporated by reference). Other gene-editing proteins include clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR)-associated proteins. However, current methods for gene editing cells are inefficient and carry a risk of uncontrolled mutagenesis, making them undesirable for research, therapeutic or cosmetic use. Methods for DNA-free gene editing of somatic cells have not been previously explored, nor have methods for simultaneous or sequential gene editing and reprogramming of somatic cells. In addition, methods for directly gene editing cells in patients (i.e., in vivo) have not been previously explored, and the development of such methods has been limited by a lack of acceptable targets, inefficient delivery, inefficient expression of the gene-editing protein/proteins, inefficient gene editing by the expressed gene-editing protein/proteins, due in part to poor binding of DNA-binding domains, excessive off-target effects, due in part to non-directed dimerization of the FokI cleavage domain and poor specificity of DNA-binding domains, and other factors. Finally, the use of gene editing in anti-bacterial, anti-viral, and anti-cancer treatments has not been previously explored.

The inventors believe this to be the first report of safe and effective dosing of RNA molecules, including those comprising non-canonical nucleotides, in humans. Despite reports in the art that very large doses of RNA molecules are needed for mammalian dosing, and minimal therapeutic effect is achieved despite high dosing (see, e.g. US Patent Publication No. 2013/0245103), the present inventors have surprisingly managed to dose synthetic RNA in a human and achieve significant target protein expression with minimal immunological or other side effects.
- In various embodiments, the present invention provides improved doses, formulations, administration and methods of use of nucleic acid drugs, which include RNA, which may contain non-canonical nucleotides (e.g. a residue other than adenine, guanine, thymine, uracil, and cytosine or the standard nucleoside, nucleotide, deoxynucleoside or deoxynucleotide derivatives thereof). In various embodiments, the RNA comprising non-canonical nucleotides leads to the expression of a protein encoded by the RNA, the protein often being one of therapeutic benefit (sometimes called the “target” or “protein of interest”). Further, this expression of therapeutic protein is achieved with minimal or negligible toxicity.
- In various aspects, the present invention is based on the surprising discovery of safe and effective doses and administration parameters of nucleic acid drugs for human subjects. Nucleic acid drugs include a dsDNA molecule, a ssDNA molecule, a RNA molecule, a dsRNA molecule, a ssRNA molecule, a plasmid, an oligonucleotide, a synthetic RNA molecule, a miRNA molecule, an mRNA molecule, and an siRNA molecule. In various embodiments, the RNA comprises non-canonical nucleotides.
- In some aspects, there is provided a method for delivering a nucleic acid drug, comprising administering an effective dose of a nucleic acid drug to a human subject in need thereof, wherein the nucleic acid drug comprises a synthetic RNA. In various embodiments, the effective dose is an amount sufficient to substantially increase an amount of a protein encoded by the nucleic acid drug in the human subject. For example, when the nucleic acid drug is a synthetic RNA comprising one or more modified nucleotides, the nucleic acid drug may result in higher protein expression than levels obtainable with a nucleic acid drug that does not comprise one or more modified nucleotides (e.g., RNA comprising the canonical nucleotides A, G, U, and C). In some embodiments, the nucleic acid drug results in about a 2-fold, or about a 3-fold, or about a 4-fold, or about a 5-fold, or about a 10-fold, or about a 15-fold, or about a 20-fold, or about a 25-fold, or about a 30-fold, or about a 35-fold, or about a 40-fold, or about a 45-fold, or about a 50-fold, or about a 100-fold increase in protein expression as compared to levels obtainable with a nucleic acid drug that does not comprise one or more modified nucleotides.
- In some embodiments, the nucleic acid drug provides a sustained therapeutic effect that is optionally mediated by a sustained expression of target protein. For instance, in some embodiments, the therapeutic effect is present for over about 1 day, or over about 2 days, or over about 3 days, or over about 4 days, or over about 5 days, or over about 6 days, or over about 7 days, or over about 8 days, or over about 9 days, or over about 10 days, or over about 14 days after administration. In some embodiments, this sustained effect obviates the need for, or reduces the amount of, maintenance doses.
- In some embodiments, the nucleic acid drug provides a sustained target protein level. For instance, in some embodiments, the target protein is present (e.g. in measurable amounts, e.g. in the serum of a patient to whom the nucleic acid drug has been administered) for over about 1 day, or over about 2 days, or over about 3 days, or over about 4 days, or over about 5 days, or over about 6 days, or over about 7 days, or over about 8 days, or over about 9 days, or over about 10 days, or over about 14 days after administration. In some embodiments, this sustained effect obviates the need for, or reduces the amount of, maintenance doses.
- In various embodiments, the nucleic acid drug provides therapeutic action without sustained presence of the nucleic acid drug itself. In some embodiments, the nucleic acid drug is rapidly metabolized, for instance, within about 6 hours, or about 12 hours, or about 18 hours, or about 24 hours, or about 2 days, or about 3 days, or about 4 days, or about 5 days, or about 1 week from administration.
- In various embodiments, the effective dose is an amount that substantially avoids cell toxicity in vivo. In various embodiments, the effective dose is an amount that substantially avoids an immune reaction in a human subject. For example, the immune reaction may be an immune response mediated by the innate immune system. Immune response can be monitored using markers known in the art (e.g. cytokines, interferons, TLRs). In some embodiments, the effective dose obviates the need for treatment of the human subject with immune suppressants agents (e.g. B18R) used to moderate the residual toxicity. Accordingly, in some embodiments, the present methods allow for dosing that provides increased protein expression and reduces toxicity.
- In some embodiments, the immune response is reduced by about 10%, about 20%, about 30%, about 40%, about 50%, about 60%, about 70%, about 80%, about 90%, about 95%, about 99%, about 99.9%, or greater than about 99.9% as compared to the immune response induced by a corresponding unmodified nucleic acid. In some embodiments, upregulation of one or more immune response markers is reduced by about 10%, about 20%, about 30%, about 40%, about 50%, about 60%, about 70%, about 80%, about 90%, about 95%, about 99%, about 99.9%, or greater than about 99.9% as compared to the upregulation of the one or more immune response markers induced by a corresponding unmodified nucleic acid. In some embodiments, the immune response marker comprises an mRNA or protein product of an interferon gene, including an interferon alpha gene, IFNB1, TLR3, RARRES3, EIF2AK2, STAT1, STAT2, IFIT1, IFIT2, IFIT3, IFIT5, OAS1, OAS2, OAS3, OASL, ISG20 or a fragment, variant, analogue, or family-member thereof. In some embodiments, the immune response marker comprises an mRNA or protein product of an TNF gene, including an TNF alpha gene, TNFRSF1A; TNFRSF1B; LTBR; TNFRSF4; CD40; FAS; TNFRSF6B; CD27; TNFRSF8; TNFRSF9; TNFRSF10A; TNFRSF10B; TNFRSF10C; TNFRSF10D; TNFRSF11A; TNFRSF11B; TNFRSF12A; TNFRSF13B; TNFRSF13C; TNFRSF14; NGFR; TNFRSF17; TNFRSF18; TNFRSF19; TNFRSF21; TNFRSF25; and EDA2R or a fragment, variant, analogue, or family-member thereof. In some embodiments, the immune response marker comprises an mRNA or protein product of an interleukin gene, including an IL-6 gene, IL-1; IL-2; IL-3; IL-4; IL-5; IL-6; IL-7; IL-8 or CXCL8; IL-9; IL-10; IL-11; IL-12; IL-13; IL-14; IL-15; IL-16; IL-17; IL-18; IL-19; IL-20; IL-21; IL-22; IL-23; IL-24; IL-25; IL-26; IL-27; IL-28; IL-29; IL-30; IL-31; IL-32; IL-33; IL-35; IL-36 or a fragment, variant, analogue, or family-member thereof.
- In some embodiments, cell death is about 10%, about 25%, about 50%, about 75%, about 85%, about 90%, about 95%, or over about 95% less than the cell death observed with a corresponding unmodified nucleic acid. Moreover, cell death may affect fewer than about 50%, about 40%, about 30%, about 20%, about 10%, about 5%, about 1%, about 0.1%, about 0.01% or fewer than about 0.01% of cells contacted with the modified nucleic acids.

In some embodiments, there is provided a method for expressing a protein of interest in a population of cells in a mammalian subject, comprising administering a non-viral transfection composition comprising an effective dose of a RNA encoding the protein of interest to said cells, the RNA containing one or more non-canonical nucleotides that avoid substantial cellular toxicity, where the transfection composition is administered in an amount that allows for expression of said protein in said cells for at least about six hours (e.g. about six hours, or about 12 hours, or about 1 day, or about 2 days, or about 3 days, or about 4 days, or about 5 days) without substantial cellular toxicity.

The inventors have discovered that the doses and administration described herein can produce a substantial protein expression effect quickly (e.g. in about 6, or about 12, or about 24, or about 36, or about 48 hours). Further, these effects can be sustained for about 7 days, or longer. In some embodiments, the present methods provide for administration of a nucleic acid drug, including RNA comprising one or more non-canonical nucleotides, about weekly to about once every 20 weeks.
- In some embodiments, the nucleic acid drug, including RNA comprising one or more non-canonical nucleotides, is administered about weekly, for at least 2 weeks (e.g. 3, or 4, or 5, or 6, or 7, or 8, or 9, or 10 weeks). In some embodiments, the nucleic acid drug, including RNA comprising one or more non-canonical nucleotides, is administered about every other week for at least one month (e.g. 1, or 2, or 3, or 4, or 5, or 6, or 12 months). In some embodiments, the nucleic acid drug, including RNA comprising one or more non-canonical nucleotides, is administered monthly or about every other month. In some embodiments, the nucleic acid drug, including RNA comprising one or more non-canonical nucleotides, is administered is administered for at least two months, or at least 4 months, or at least 6 months, or at least 9 months, or at least one year.
- In some embodiments, the nucleic acid drug, including RNA comprising one or more non-canonical nucleotides, is administered about weekly, or about once every 2 weeks, or about once every 3 weeks, or about once every 4 weeks, or about once every 5 weeks, or about once every 6 weeks, or about once every 7 weeks, or about once every 8 weeks, or about once every 9 weeks, or about once every 10 weeks, or about once every 11 weeks, or about once every 12 weeks, or about once every 13 weeks, or about once every 14 weeks, or about once every 15 weeks, or about once every 20 weeks, or about once every 24 weeks.
- In some embodiments, the nucleic acid drug, including RNA comprising one or more non-canonical nucleotides, is administered no more than about weekly, or about once every 2 weeks, or about once every 3 weeks, or about once every 4 weeks, or about once every 5 weeks, or about once every 6 weeks, or about once every 7 weeks, or about once every 8 weeks, or about once every 9 weeks, or about once every 10 weeks, or about once every 11 weeks, or about once every 12 weeks, or about once every 13 weeks, or about once every 14 weeks, or about once every 15 weeks, or about once every 20 weeks, or about 24 weeks.
- Certain proteins have long half-lives, and can persist in tissues for several hours, days, weeks, months or years. It has now been discovered that certain methods of treating a patient can result in accumulation of one or more proteins, including, for example, one or more beneficial proteins. Certain embodiments are therefore directed to a method for treating a patient comprising delivering to a patient in a series of doses a nucleic acid encoding one or more proteins. In one embodiment the nucleic acid comprises RNA comprising one or more non-canonical nucleotides. In another embodiment, a first dose is given at a first time-point. In yet another embodiment, a second dose is given at a second time-point. In a further embodiment, the amount of at least one of the one or more proteins in the patient at the second time-point is greater than the amount of said protein at the first time-point. In a still further embodiment, the method results in the accumulation of said protein in the patient.
- In various embodiments, the present invention relates to nucleic acid drugs, which, in various embodiments are RNA comprising one or more non-canonical nucleotides. Certain non-canonical nucleotides, when incorporated into RNA molecules, can reduce the toxicity of the RNA molecules, in part, without wishing to be bound by theory, by interfering with binding of proteins that detect exogenous nucleic acids, for example, protein kinase R, Rig-1 and the oligoadenylate synthetase family of proteins. Non-canonical nucleotides that have been reported to reduce the toxicity of RNA molecules when incorporated therein include: pseudouridine, 5-methyluridine, 2-thiouridine, 5-methylcytidine, N6-methyladenosine, and certain combinations thereof. However, the chemical characteristics of non-canonical nucleotides that can enable them to lower the in vivo toxicity of RNA molecules have, until this point, remained unknown. Furthermore, incorporation of large amounts of most non-canonical nucleotides, for example, 5-methyluridine, 2-thiouridine, 5-methylcytidine, and N6-methyladenosine, can reduce the efficiency with which RNA molecules can be translated into protein, limiting the utility of RNA molecules containing these nucleotides in applications that require protein expression. In addition, while pseudouridine can be completely substituted for uridine in RNA molecules without reducing the efficiency with which the synthetic RNA molecules can be translated into protein, in certain situations, for example, when performing frequent, repeated transfections, synthetic RNA molecules containing only adenosine, guanosine, cytidine, and pseudouridine can exhibit excessive toxicity.
- It has now been discovered that, and in some embodiments the invention pertains to, RNA molecules containing one or more non-canonical nucleotides that include one or more substitutions at the 2C and/or 4C and/or 5C positions in the case of a pyrimidine or the 6C and/or 7N and/or 8C positions in the case of a purine can be less toxic than synthetic RNA molecules containing only canonical nucleotides, due in part to the ability of substitutions at these positions to interfere with recognition of synthetic RNA molecules by proteins that detect exogenous nucleic acids, and furthermore, that substitutions at these positions can have minimal impact on the efficiency with which the synthetic RNA molecules can be translated into protein, due in part to the lack of interference of substitutions at these positions with base-pairing and base-stacking interactions.
- Examples of non-canonical nucleotides that include one or more substitutions at the 2C and/or 4C and/or 5C positions in the case of a pyrimidine or the 6C and/or 7N and/or 8C positions in the case of a purine include, but are not limited to: 2-thiouridine, 5-azauridine, pseudouridine, 4-thiouridine, 5-methyluridine, 5-methylpseudouridine, 5-aminouridine, 5-aminopseudouridine, 5-hydroxyuridine, 5-hydroxypseudouridine, 5-methoxyuridine, 5-methoxypseudouridine, 5-hydroxymethyluridine, 5-hydroxymethylpseudouridine, 5-carboxyuridine, 5-carboxypseudouridine, 5-formyluridine, 5-formylpseudouridine, 5-methyl-5-azauridine, 5-amino-5-azauridine, 5-hydroxy-5-azauridine, 5-methylpseudouridine, 5-aminopseudouridine, 5-hydroxypseudouridine, 4-thio-5-azauridine, 4-thiopseudouridine, 4-thio-5-methyluridine, 4-thio-5-aminouridine, 4-thio-5-hydroxyuridine, 4-thio-5-methyl-5-azauridine, 4-thio-5-amino-5-azauridine, 4-thio-5-hydroxy-5-azauridine, 4-thio-5-methylpseudouridine, 4-thio-5-aminopseudouridine, 4-thio-5-hydroxypseudouridine, 2-thiocytidine, 5-azacytidine, pseudoisocytidine, N4-methylcytidine, N4-aminocytidine, N4-hydroxycytidine, 5-methylcytidine, 5-aminocytidine, 5-hydroxycytidine, 5-methoxycytidine, 5-hydroxymethylcytidine, 5-carboxycytidine, 5-formylcytydine, 5-methyl-5-azacytidine, 5-amino-5-azacytidine, 5-hydroxy-5-azacytidine, 5-methylpseudoisocytidine, 5-aminopseudoisocytidine, 5-hydroxypseudoisocytidine, N4-methyl-5-azacytidine, N4-methylpseudoisocytidine, 2-thio-5-azacytidine, 2-thiopseudoisocytidine, 2-thio-N4-methylcytidine, 2-thio-N4-aminocytidine, 2-thio-N4-hydroxycytidine, 2-thio-5-methylcytidine, 2-thio-5-aminocytidine, 2-thio-5-hydroxycytidine, 2-thio-5-methyl-5-azacytidine, 2-thio-5-amino-5-azacytidine, 2-thio-5-hydroxy-5-azacytidine, 2-thio-5-methylpseudoisocytidine, 2-thio-5-aminopseudoisocytidine, 2-thio-5-hydroxypseudoisocytidine, 2-thio-N4-methyl-5-azacytidine, 2-thio-N4-methylpseudoisocytidine, N4-methyl-5-methylcytidine, N4-methyl-5-aminocytidine, N4-methyl-5-hydroxycytidine, N4-methyl-5-methyl-5-azacytidine, N4-methyl-5-amino-5-azacytidine, N4-methyl-5-hydroxy-5-azacytidine, N4-methyl-5-methylpseudoisocytidine, N4-methyl-5-aminopseudoisocytidine, N4-methyl-5-hydroxypseudoisocytidine, N4-amino-5-azacytidine, N4-aminopseudoisocytidine, N4-amino-5-methylcytidine, N4-amino-5-aminocytidine, N4-amino-5-hydroxycytidine, N4-amino-5-methyl-5-azacytidine, N4-amino-5-amino-5-azacytidine, N4-amino-5-hydroxy-5-azacytidine, N4-amino-5-methylpseudoisocytidine, N4-amino-5-aminopseudoisocytidine, N4-amino-5-hydroxypseudoisocytidine, N4-hydroxy-5-azacytidine, N4-hydroxypseudoisocytidine, N4-hydroxy-5-methylcytidine, N4-hydroxy-5-aminocytidine, N4-hydroxy-5-hydroxycytidine, N4-hydroxy-5-methyl-5-azacytidine, N4-hydroxy-5-amino-5-azacytidine, N4-hydroxy-5-hydroxy-5-azacytidine, N4-hydroxy-5-methylpseudoisocytidine, N4-hydroxy-5-aminopseudoisocytidine, N4-hydroxy-5-hydroxypseudoisocytidine, 2-thio-N4-methyl-5-methylcytidine, 2-thio-N4-methyl-5-aminocytidine, 2-thio-N4-methyl-5-hydroxycytidine, 2-thio-N4-methyl-5-methyl-5-azacytidine, 2-thio-N4-methyl-5-amino-5-azacytidine, 2-thio-N4-methyl-5-hydroxy-5-azacytidine, 2-thio-N4-methyl-5-methylpseudoisocytidine, 2-thio-N4-methyl-5-aminopseudoisocytidine, 2-thio-N4-methyl-5-hydroxypseudoisocytidine, 2-thio-N4-amino-5-azacytidine, 2-thio-N4-aminopseudoisocytidine, 2-thio-N4-amino-5-methylcytidine, 2-thio-N4-amino-5-aminocytidine, 2-thio-N4-amino-5-hydroxycytidine, 2-thio-N4-amino-5-methyl-5-azacytidine, 2-thio-N4-amino-5-amino-5-azacytidine, 2-thio-N4-amino-5-hydroxy-5-azacytidine, 2-thio-N4-amino-5-methylpseudoisocytidine, 2-thio-N4-amino-5-aminopseudoisocytidine, 2-thio-N4-amino-5-hydroxypseudoisocytidine, 2-thio-N4-hydroxy-5-azacytidine, 2-thio-N4-hydroxypseudoisocytidine, 2-thio-N4-hydroxy-5-methylcytidine, N4-hydroxy-5-aminocytidine, 2-thio-N4-hydroxy-5-hydroxycytidine, 2-thio-N4-hydroxy-5-methyl-5-azacytidine, 2-thio-N4-hydroxy-5-amino-5-azacytidine, 2-thio-N4-hydroxy-5-hydroxy-5-azacytidine, 2-thio-N4-hydroxy-5-methylpseudoisocytidine, 2-thio-N4-hydroxy-5-aminopseudoisocytidine, 2-thio-N4-hydroxy-5-hydroxypseudoisocytidine, N6-methyladenosine, N6-aminoadenosine, N6-hydroxyadenosine, 7-deazaadenosine, 8-azaadenosine, N6-methyl-7-deazaadenosine, N6-methyl-8-azaadenosine, 7-deaza-8-azaadenosine, N6-methyl-7-deaza-8-azaadenosine, N6-amino-7-deazaadenosine, N6-amino-8-azaadenosine, N6-amino-7-deaza-8-azaadenosine, N6-hydroxyadenosine, N6-hydroxy-7-deazaadenosine, N6-hydroxy-8-azaadenosine, N6-hydroxy-7-deaza-8-azaadenosine, 6-thioguanosine, 7-deazaguanosine, 8-azaguanosine, 6-thio-7-deazaguanosine, 6-thio-8-azaguanosine, 7-deaza-8-azaguanosine, 6-thio-7-deaza-8-azaguanosine, and 5-methoxyuridine.

In some embodiments, the RNA contains no more than about 50% 7-deazaguanosine in place of guanosine residues.
- In some embodiments, the RNA does not contain non-canonical nucleotides in place of adenosine residues.

- Nucleotides that contain the prefix “amino” can refer to any nucleotide that contains a nitrogen atom bound to the atom at the stated position of the nucleotide, for example, 5-aminocytidine can refer to 5-aminocytidine, 5-methylaminocytidine, and 5-nitrocytidine. Similarly, nucleotides that contain the prefix “methyl” can refer to any nucleotide that contains a carbon atom bound to the atom at the stated position of the nucleotide, for example, 5-methylcytidine can refer to 5-methylcytidine, 5-ethylcytidine, and 5-hydroxymethylcytidine, nucleotides that contain the prefix “thio” can refer to any nucleotide that contains a sulfur atom bound to the atom at the given position of the nucleotide, and nucleotides that contain the prefix “hydroxy” can refer to any nucleotide that contains an oxygen atom bound to the atom at the given position of the nucleotide, for example, 5-hydroxyuridine can refer to 5-hydroxyuridine and uridine with a methyl group bound to an oxygen atom, wherein the oxygen atom is bound to the atom at the 5C position of the uridine.
- Certain embodiments are therefore directed to RNA comprising one or more non-canonical nucleotides, wherein the RNA molecule contains one or more nucleotides that includes one or more substitutions at the 2C and/or 4C and/or 5C positions in the case of a pyrimidine or the 6C and/or 7N and/or 8C positions in the case of a purine.

In another embodiment, the one or more nucleotides includes: pseudoisocytidine and 7-deazaguanosine and pseudouridine. In one embodiment, the RNA comprising one or more non-canonical nucleotides is present in vivo.
- Certain non-canonical nucleotides can be incorporated more efficiently than other non-canonical nucleotides into RNA molecules by RNA polymerases that are commonly used for in vitro transcription, due in part to the tendency of these certain non-canonical nucleotides to participate in standard base-pairing interactions and base-stacking interactions, and to interact with the RNA polymerase in a manner similar to that in which the corresponding canonical nucleotide interacts with the RNA polymerase. As a result, certain nucleotide mixtures containing one or more non-canonical nucleotides can be beneficial in part because in vitro-transcription reactions containing these nucleotide mixtures can yield a large quantity of RNA. Certain embodiments are therefore directed to a nucleotide mixture containing one or more nucleotides that includes one or more substitutions at the 2C and/or 4C and/or 5C positions in the case of a pyrimidine or the 6C and/or 7N and/or 8C positions in the case of a purine. Nucleotide mixtures include, but are not limited to (numbers preceding each nucleotide indicate an exemplary fraction of the non-canonical nucleotide triphosphate in an in vitro-transcription reaction, for example, 0.2 pseudoisocytidine refers to a reaction containing adenosine-5′-triphosphate, guanosine-5′-triphosphate, uridine-5′-triphosphate, cytidine-5′-triphosphate, and pseudoisocytidine-5′-triphosphate, wherein pseudoisocytidine-5′-triphosphate is present in the reaction at an amount approximately equal to 0.2 times the total amount of pseudoisocytidine-5′-triphosphate+cytidine-5′-triphosphate that is present in the reaction, with amounts measured either on a molar or mass basis, and wherein more than one number preceding a nucleoside indicates a range of exemplary fractions): 1.0 pseudouridine, 0.1-0.8 2-thiouridine, 0.1-0.8 5-methyluridine, 0.2-1.0 5-hydroxyuridine, 0.2-1.0 5-methoxyuridine, 0.1-1.0 5-aminouridine, 0.1-1.0 4-thiouridine, 0.1-1.0 2-thiopseudouridine, 0.1-1.0 4-thiopseudouridine, 0.1-1.0 5-hydroxypseudouridine, 0.2-1 5-methylpseudouridine, 0.2-1.0 5-methoxypseudouridine, 0.1-1.0 5-aminopseudouridine, 0.2-1.0 2-thiocytidine, 0.1-0.8 pseudoisocytidine, 0.2-1.0 5-methylcytidine, 0.2-1.0 5-hydroxycytidine, 0.2-1.0 5-hydroxymethylcytidine, 0.2-1.0 5-methoxycytidine, 0.1-1.0 5-aminocytidine, 0.2-1.0 N4-methylcytidine, 0.2-1.0 5-methylpseudoisocytidine, 0.2-1.0 5-hydroxypseudoisocytidine, 0.2-1.0 5-aminopseudoisocytidine, 0.2-1.0 N4-methylpseudoisocytidine, 0.2-1.0 2-thiopseudoisocytidine, 0.2-1.0 7-deazaguanosine, 0.2-1.0 6-thioguanosine, 0.2-1.0 6-thio-7-deazaguanosine, 0.2-1.0 8-azaguanosine, 0.2-1.0 7-deaza-8-azaguanosine, 0.2-1.0 6-thio-8-azaguanosine, 0.1-0.5 7-deazaadenosine, and 0.1-0.5 N6-methyladenosine.
- In various embodiments, the RNA comprising one or more non-canonical nucleotides composition or synthetic polynucleotide composition (e.g., which may be prepared by in vitro transcription) contains substantially or entirely the canonical nucleotide at positions having adenine or “A” in the genetic code. The term “substantially” in this context refers to at least 90%. In these embodiments, the RNA composition or synthetic polynucleotide composition may further contain (e.g., consist of) 7-deazaguanosine at positions with “G” in the genetic code as well as the corresponding canonical nucleotide “G”, and the canonical and non-canonical nucleotide at positions with G may be in the range of 5:1 to 1:5, or in some embodiments in the range of 2:1 to 1:2. In these embodiments, the RNA composition or synthetic polynucleotide composition may further contain (e.g., consist of) one or more (e.g., two, three or four) of 5-hydroxycytidine, 5-methylcytidine, 5-hydroxymethylcytidine, 5-carboxycytidine, 5-formylcytidine, 5-methoxycytidine at positions with “C” in the genetic code as well as the canonical nucleotide “C”, and the canonical and non-canonical nucleotide at positions with C may be in the range of 5:1 to 1:5, or in some embodiments in the range of 2:1 to 1:2. In some embodiments, the level of non-canonical nucleotide at positions of “C” are as described in the preceding paragraph. In these embodiments, the RNA composition or synthetic polynucleotide composition may further contain (e.g., consist of) one or more (e.g., two, three, or four) of 5-hydroxyuridine, 5-methyluridine, 5-hydroxymethyluridine, 5-carboxyuridine, 5-formyluridine, 5-methoxyuridine, pseudouridine, 5-hydroxypseudouridine, 5-methylpseudouridine, 5-hydroxymethylpseudouridine, 5-carboxypseudouridine, 5-formylpseudouridine, and 5-methoxypseudouridine at positions with “U” in the genetic code as well as the canonical nucleotide “U”, and the canonical and non-canonical nucleotide at positions with “U” may be in the range of 5:1 to 1:5, or in some embodiments in the range of 2:1 to 1:2. In some embodiments, the level of non-canonical nucleotide at positions of “U” are as described in the preceding paragraph.
- It has now been discovered that combining certain non-canonical nucleotides can be beneficial in part because the contribution of non-canonical nucleotides to lowering the toxicity of RNA molecules can be additive. Certain embodiments are therefore directed to a nucleotide mixture, wherein the nucleotide mixture contains more than one of the non-canonical nucleotides listed above, for example, the nucleotide mixture contains both pseudoisocytidine and 7-deazaguanosine or the nucleotide mixture contains both N4-methylcytidine and 7-deazaguanosine, etc. In one embodiment, the nucleotide mixture contains more than one of the non-canonical nucleotides listed above, and each of the non-canonical nucleotides is present in the mixture at the fraction listed above, for example, the nucleotide mixture contains 0.1-0.8 pseudoisocytidine and 0.2-1.0 7-deazaguanosine or the nucleotide mixture contains 0.2-1.0 N4-methylcytidine and 0.2-1.0 7-deazaguanosine, etc.
- In certain situations, for example, when it may not be necessary or desirable to maximize the yield of an in vitro-transcription reaction, nucleotide fractions other than those given above may be used. The exemplary fractions and ranges of fractions listed above relate to nucleotide-triphosphate solutions of typical purity (greater than 90% purity). Larger fractions of these and other nucleotides can be used by using nucleotide-triphosphate solutions of greater purity, for example, greater than about 95% purity or greater than about 98% purity or greater than about 99% purity or greater than about 99.5% purity, which can be achieved, for example, by purifying the nucleotide triphosphate solution using existing chemical-purification technologies such as high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) or by other means. In one embodiment, nucleotides with multiple isomers are purified to enrich the desired isomer.
- Other embodiments are directed to a method for inducing a cell in vivo to express a protein of interest by contacting the cell with a RNA molecule that contains one or more non-canonical nucleotides that includes one or more substitutions at the 2C and/or 4C and/or 5C positions in the case of a pyrimidine or the 6C and/or 7N and/or 8C positions in the case of a purine. Still other embodiments are directed to a method for transfecting, reprogramming, and/or gene-editing a cell in vivo by contacting the cell with a RNA molecule that contains one or more non-canonical nucleotides that includes one or more substitutions at the 2C and/or 4C and/or 5C positions in the case of a pyrimidine or the 6C and/or 7N and/or 8C positions in the case of a purine. In one embodiment, the RNA molecule is produced by in vitro transcription. In one embodiment, the RNA molecule encodes one or more reprogramming factors. In another embodiment, the one or more reprogramming factors includes Oct4 protein. In another embodiment, the cell is also contacted with a RNA molecule that encodes Sox2 protein. In yet another embodiment, the cell is also contacted with a RNA molecule that encodes Klf4 protein. In yet another embodiment, the cell is also contacted with a RNA molecule that encodes c-Myc protein. In yet another embodiment, the cell is also contacted with a RNA molecule that encodes Lin28 protein.
- Enzymes such as T7 RNA polymerase may preferentially incorporate canonical nucleotides in an in vitro-transcription reaction containing both canonical and non-canonical nucleotides. As a result, an in vitro-transcription reaction containing a certain fraction of a non-canonical nucleotide may yield RNA containing a different, often lower, fraction of the non-canonical nucleotide than the fraction at which the non-canonical nucleotide was present in the reaction. In certain embodiments, references to nucleotide incorporation fractions (for example, “a synthetic RNA molecule containing 50% pseudoisocytidine” or “0.1-0.8 pseudoisocytidine”) therefore can refer both to RNA molecules containing the stated fraction of the nucleotide, and to RNA molecules synthesized in a reaction containing the stated fraction of the nucleotide (or nucleotide derivative, for example, nucleotide-triphosphate), even though such a reaction may yield RNA containing a different fraction of the nucleotide than the fraction at which the non-canonical nucleotide was present in the reaction.
- Different nucleotide sequences can encode the same protein by utilizing alternative codons. In certain embodiments, references to nucleotide incorporation fractions therefore can refer both to RNA molecules containing the stated fraction of the nucleotide, and to RNA molecules encoding the same protein as a different RNA molecule, wherein the different RNA molecule contains the stated fraction of the nucleotide.
- Certain embodiments are directed to a kit containing one or more materials needed to practice the present invention. In one embodiment, the kit contains one or more synthetic RNA molecules. In one embodiment, the kit contains one or more synthetic RNA molecules that encode one or more reprogramming factors and/or gene-editing proteins. In another embodiment, the one or more synthetic RNA molecules contain one or more non-canonical nucleotides that include one or more substitutions at the 2C and/or 4C and/or 5C positions in the case of a pyrimidine or the 6C and/or 7N and/or 8C positions in the case of a purine. In another embodiment, the kit contains one or more of: a transfection medium, a transfection reagent, a complexation medium, and a matrix solution. In one embodiment, the matrix solution contains fibronectin and/or vitronectin or recombinant fibronectin and/or recombinant vitronectin. In one embodiment, one or more of the components of the kit are present as a plurality of aliquots. In one embodiment, the kit contains aliquots of nucleic acid transfection-reagent complexes. In another embodiment, the kit contains aliquots of nucleic acid transfection-reagent complexes that are provided in a solid form, for example, as frozen or freeze-dried pellets. In yet another embodiment, the kit contains aliquots of medium, wherein each aliquot contains transfection reagent-nucleic acid complexes that are stabilized either by chemical treatment or by freezing.
- Transfection, in general, and reprogramming, in particular, can be difficult and time-consuming techniques that can be repetitive and prone to error. However, these techniques are often performed manually due to the lack of automated transfection equipment. Certain embodiments are therefore directed to a system that can transfect, reprogram, and/or gene-edit cells in vivo in an automated or semi-automated manner.
- It has now been discovered that the non-canonical nucleotide members of the 5-methylcytidine de-methylation pathway, when incorporated into synthetic RNA, can increase the efficiency with which the synthetic RNA can be translated into protein in vivo, and can decrease the toxicity of the synthetic RNA in vivo. These non-canonical nucleotides include, for example: 5-methylcytidine, 5-hydroxymethylcytidine, 5-formylcytidine, and 5-carboxycytidine (a.k.a. “cytidine-5-carboxylic acid”). Certain embodiments are therefore directed to a nucleic acid.
- In some embodiments, the nucleic acid is present in vivo. In one embodiment, the nucleic acid is a synthetic RNA molecule. In another embodiment, the nucleic acid comprises one or more non-canonical nucleotides. In one embodiment, the nucleic acid comprises one or more non-canonical nucleotide members of the 5-methylcytidine de-methylation pathway.

- Other non-canonical nucleotides that can be used in place of or in combination with 5-methyluridine include, but are not limited to: pseudouridine, 5-hydroxyuridine, 5-hydroxypseudouridine, 5-methoxyuridine, 5-methoxypseudouridine, 5-carboxyuridine, 5-carboxypseudouridine, 5-formyluridine, 5-formylpseudouridine, 5-hydroxymethyluridine, 5-hydroxymethylpseudouridine, and 5-methylpseudouridine (a.k.a. “1-methylpseudouridine”, a.k.a. “N1-methylpseudouridine”) or one or more derivatives thereof.

In certain embodiments, for example, when performing only a single transfection, injection or delivery or when the cells, tissue, organ or patient being transfected, injected or delivered to are not particularly sensitive to transfection-associated toxicity or innate-immune signaling, the fractions of non-canonical nucleotides can be reduced. Reducing the fraction of non-canonical nucleotides can be beneficial, in part, because reducing the fraction of non-canonical nucleotides can reduce the cost of the nucleic acid. In certain situations, for example, when minimal immunogenicity of the nucleic acid is desired, the fractions of non-canonical nucleotides can be increased.
- Enzymes such as T7 RNA polymerase may preferentially incorporate canonical nucleotides in an in vitro-transcription reaction containing both canonical and non-canonical nucleotides. As a result, an in vitro-transcription reaction containing a certain fraction of a non-canonical nucleotide may yield RNA containing a different, often lower, fraction of the non-canonical nucleotide than the fraction at which the non-canonical nucleotide was present in the reaction. In certain embodiments, references to nucleotide incorporation fractions (for example, “50% 5-methyluridine”) therefore can refer both to nucleic acids containing the stated fraction of the nucleotide, and to nucleic acids synthesized in a reaction containing the stated fraction of the nucleotide (or nucleotide derivative, for example, nucleotide-triphosphate), even though such a reaction may yield a nucleic acid containing a different fraction of the nucleotide than the fraction at which the non-canonical nucleotide was present in the reaction. In addition, different nucleotide sequences can encode the same protein by utilizing alternative codons. In certain embodiments, references to nucleotide incorporation fractions therefore can refer both to nucleic acids containing the stated fraction of the nucleotide, and to nucleic acids encoding the same protein as a different nucleic acid, wherein the different nucleic acid contains the stated fraction of the nucleotide.

In various embodiments, the present invention contemplates the targeting of the full-length and/or truncated forms of any of the proteins disclosed in Table 2B. In various embodiments, the present invention contemplates the targeting of the precursor forms and/or mature forms and/or isoforms of any of the proteins disclosed in Table 2B.
- In various embodiments, the present invention contemplates the targeting of a protein having about 60% (e.g. about 60%, or about 61%, or about 62%, or about 63%, or about 64%, or about 65%, or about 66%, or about 67%, or about 68%, or about 69%, or about 70%, or about 71%, or about 72%, or about 73%, or about 74%, or about 75%, or about 76%, or about 77%, or about 78%, or about 79%, or about 80%, or about 81%, or about 82%, or about 83%, or about 84%, or about 85%, or about 86%, or about 87%, or about 88%, or about 89%, or about 90%, or about 91%, or about 92%, or about 93%, or about 94%, or about 95%, or about 96%, or about 97%, or about 98%, or about 99%) sequence identity with any of the protein sequences disclosed herein (e.g. in Table 2B).
- In various embodiments, the present invention contemplates the targeting of a protein comprising an amino acid sequence having one or more amino acid mutations relative to any of the protein sequences described herein (e.g. in Table 2B). For example, the present invention contemplates the targeting of a protein comprising an amino acid sequence having 1, or 2, or 3, or 4, or 5, or 6, or 7, or 8, or 9, or 10, or 11, or 12 amino acid mutations relative to any of the protein sequences described herein (e.g. in Table 2B). In some embodiments, the one or more amino acid mutations may be independently selected from substitutions, insertions, deletions, and truncations.
- In some embodiments, the amino acid mutations are amino acid substitutions, and may include conservative and/or non-conservative substitutions. “Conservative substitutions” may be made, for instance, on the basis of similarity in polarity, charge, size, solubility, hydrophobicity, hydrophilicity, and/or the amphipathic nature of the amino acid residues involved. The 20 naturally occurring amino acids can be grouped into the following six standard amino acid groups: (1) hydrophobic: Met, Ala, Val, Leu, Ile; (2) neutral hydrophilic: Cys, Ser, Thr; Asn, Gln; (3) acidic: Asp, Glu; (4) basic: His, Lys, Arg; (5) residues that influence chain orientation: Gly, Pro; and (6) aromatic: Trp, Tyr, Phe.
- As used herein, “conservative substitutions” are defined as exchanges of an amino acid by another amino acid listed within the same group of the six standard amino acid groups shown above. For example, the exchange of Asp by Glu retains one negative charge in the so modified polypeptide. In addition, glycine and proline may be substituted for one another based on their ability to disrupt α-helices.
- As used herein, “non-conservative substitutions” are defined as exchanges of an amino acid by another amino acid listed in a different group of the six standard amino acid groups (1) to (6) shown above.
- In various embodiments, the substitutions may also include non-classical amino acids (e.g. selenocysteine, pyrrolysine, N-formylmethionine β-alanine, GABA and δ-Aminolevulinic acid, 4-aminobenzoic acid (PABA), D-isomers of the common amino acids, 2,4-diaminobutyric acid, α-amino isobutyric acid, 4-aminobutyric acid, Abu, 2-amino butyric acid, γ-Abu, ε-Ahx, 6-amino hexanoic acid, Aib, 2-amino isobutyric acid, 3-amino propionic acid, ornithine, norleucine, norvaline, hydroxyproline, sarcosme, citrulline, homocitrulline, cysteic acid, t-butylglycine, t-butylalanine, phenylglycine, cyclohexylalanine, β-alanine, fluoro-amino acids, designer amino acids such as β methyl amino acids, C α-methyl amino acids, N α-methyl amino acids, and amino acid analogs in general).

- Erythropoietin can stimulate erythropoiesis in anemic patients with chronic renal failure in whom the endogenous production of erythropoietin is impaired. Without being bound by theory, because of the length of time often required for erythropoiesis (several days for erythroid progenitors to mature and be released into the circulation), a clinically significant increase in hemoglobin is usually not observed in less than two weeks and may require up to ten weeks in some patients. The present methods and compositions provide, in some embodiments, more rapid therapeutic effect. The present methods and compositions provide, in some embodiments, more rapid therapeutic effect, for instance, when compared to wild type EPO and/or EPO without non-canonical nucleotides and/or EPO delivered as a protein biologic. The present methods and compositions provide, in some embodiments, a sustained therapeutic effect. The present methods and compositions provide, in some embodiments, a sustained therapeutic effect, for instance, when compared to wild type EPO and/or EPO without non-canonical nucleotides and/or EPO delivered as a protein biologic.

Furthermore, the exact individual dosages can be adjusted somewhat depending on a variety of factors, including the specific combination of the agents being administered, the time of administration, the route of administration, the nature of the formulation, the rate of excretion, the particular disease being treated, the severity of the disorder, and the anatomical location of the disorder. Some variations in the dosage can be expected.
- Cells, tissues, organs, and organisms, including, but not limited to, humans, have several characteristics that can inhibit or prevent the delivery of nucleic acids, including, for example, the stratum corneum, which can serve as a barrier to foreign organisms and nucleic acids.

- Many proteins and peptides, when translated from in vitro transcribed RNA, can exhibit reduced activity resulting from incomplete or inadequate post-translational processing. It has now been discovered that the amount of active protein, polypeptide or peptide produced following RNA transfection can be increased by contacting cells with and/or inducing cells to express a second protein that is capable of processing a polypeptide into the protein, peptide or polypeptide. Certain embodiments are therefore directed to a method for inducing a cell to express an active protein, polypeptide or peptide comprising contacting the cell with a synthetic RNA molecule encoding a first polypeptide and contacting the cell with a second protein that is capable of processing the first polypeptide into an active protein, polypeptide or peptide.

In still other embodiments, the second protein is a prohormone convertase. In still other embodiments, the second protein is a carboxypeptidase. In one embodiment, the second protein is PCSK3 (Furin/PACE). In another embodiment, the second protein is primarily secreted. In yet another embodiment, the second protein is primarily intracellular. In a further embodiment, the first polypeptide, protein, polypeptide or peptide is selected from the group: a product of proopiomelanocortin, renin, a product of enkephalin, a product of prodynorphin, somatostatin, insulin, agouti-related peptide, glucagon, parathyroid hormone, a member of the transforming growth factor beta superfamily, albumin, beta-
secretase 1, nerve growth factor, caldesmon, the alpha-integrins, factor IX, α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone, adrenocorticotropic hormone, β-endorphin, and met-enkefalin. - Glycation and glycosylation are processes by which one or more sugar molecules are bound to a protein. It has now been discovered that altering the number or location of glycation and glycosylation sites can increase or decrease the stability of a protein. Certain embodiments are therefore directed to a protein with one or more glycation or glycosylation sites. In one embodiment, the protein is engineered to have more glycation or glycosylation sites than a natural variant of the protein. In another embodiment, the protein is engineered to have fewer glycation or glycosylation sites than a natural variant of the protein. In yet another embodiment, the protein has increased stability. In yet another embodiment, the protein has decreased stability. In some embodiments, the protein is a circulating protein. In one embodiment, the protein is erythropoietin or a biologically active fragment, variant, analogue, or family-member thereof. In another embodiment, the protein is darbepoetin alfa or a biologically active fragment, variant, analogue, or family-member thereof. In another embodiment, the protein is NOVEPOETIN or a biologically active fragment, variant, analogue, or family-member thereof.
- It has been further discovered that in certain situations, including one or more steroids and/or one or more antioxidants in the transfection medium can increase in vivo transfection efficiency, in vivo reprogramming efficiency, and in vivo gene-editing efficiency. Certain embodiments are therefore directed to contacting a cell or patient with a glucocorticoid, such as hydrocortisone, prednisone, prednisolone, methylprednisolone, dexamethasone or betamethasone. Other embodiments are directed to a method for inducing a cell to express a protein of interest by contacting a cell with a medium containing a steroid and contacting the cell with one or more nucleic acid molecules. In one embodiment, the nucleic acid molecule comprises synthetic RNA. In another embodiment, the steroid is hydrocortisone. In yet another embodiment, the hydrocortisone is present in the medium at a concentration of between about 0.1 uM and about 10 uM, or about 1 uM. Other embodiments are directed to a method for inducing a cell in vivo to express a protein of interest by contacting the cell with a medium containing an antioxidant and contacting the cell with one or more nucleic acid molecules. In one embodiment, the antioxidant is ascorbic acid or ascorbic-acid-2-phosphate. In another embodiment, the ascorbic acid or ascorbic-acid-2-phosphate is present in the medium at a concentration of between about 0.5 mg/L and about 500 mg/L, including about 50 mg/L. Still other embodiments are directed to a method for reprogramming and/or gene-editing a cell in vivo by contacting the cell with a medium containing a steroid and/or an antioxidant and contacting the cell with one or more nucleic acid molecules, wherein the one or more nucleic acid molecules encodes one or more reprogramming and/or gene-editing proteins. In certain embodiments, the cell is present in an organism, and the steroid and/or antioxidant are delivered to the organism.
- Adding transferrin to the complexation medium has been reported to increase the efficiency of plasmid transfection in certain situations. It has now been discovered that adding transferrin to the complexation medium can also increase the efficiency of in vivo transfection with synthetic RNA molecules. Certain embodiments are therefore directed to a method for inducing a cell in vivo to express a protein of interest by adding one or more synthetic RNA molecules and a transfection reagent to a solution containing transferrin. In one embodiment, the transferrin is present in the solution at a concentration of between about 1 mg/L and about 100 mg/L, such as about 5 mg/L. In another embodiment, the transferrin is recombinant.
- In certain situations, including pertaining to culturing, it may be desirable to replace animal-derived components with non-animal-derived and/or recombinant components, in part because non-animal-derived and/or recombinant components can be produced with a higher degree of consistency than animal-derived components, and in part because non-animal-derived and/or recombinant components carry less risk of contamination with toxic and/or pathogenic substances than do animal-derived components. Certain embodiments are therefore directed to a protein that is non-animal-derived and/or recombinant. Other embodiments are directed to a medium, wherein some or all of the components of the medium are non-animal-derived and/or recombinant.
- Other embodiments are directed to a method for transfecting a cell in vivo. In one embodiment, a cell in vivo is transfected with one or more nucleic acids, and the transfection is performed using a transfection reagent, such as a lipid-based transfection reagent. In one embodiment, the one or more nucleic acids includes at least one RNA molecule. In another embodiment, the cell is transfected with one or more nucleic acids, and the one or more nucleic acids encodes at least one of: p53, TERT, an antibody, an extracellular matrix protein, a cytokine, a secreted protein, a membrane-bound protein, an enzyme, a gene-editing protein, a chromatin-modifying protein, a DNA-binding protein, a transcription factor, a histone deacetylase, a pathogen-associated molecular pattern, and a tumor-associated antigen or a biologically active fragment, analogue, variant or family-member thereof. In another embodiment, the cell is transfected repeatedly, such as at least about 2 times during about 10 consecutive days, or at least about 3 times during about 7 consecutive days, or at least about 4 times during about 6 consecutive days. Some embodiments are directed to a method for increasing expression of telomerase in one of a fibroblast, a hematopoietic stem cell, a mesenchymal stem cells, a cardiac stem cell, a hair follicle stem cell, a neural stem cell, an intestinal stem cell, an endothelial stem cell, an olfactory stem cell, a neural crest stem cell, a testicular cell, and a keratinocyte. Some embodiments are directed to a method for increasing the length of telomeres in one of a fibroblast, a hematopoietic stem cell, a mesenchymal stem cells, a cardiac stem cell, a hair follicle stem cell, a neural stem cell, an intestinal stem cell, an endothelial stem cell, an olfactory stem cell, a neural crest stem cell, a testicular cell, and a keratinocyte. Other embodiments are directed to a method for isolating a cell from a patient, contacting the cell with a nucleic acid drug encoding a component of telomerase (e.g., TERT), and reintroducing the cell to the patient. Various embodiments are directed to a method for increasing the replicative potential of a cell.
- Reprogramming can be performed by transfecting cells with one or more nucleic acids encoding one or more reprogramming factors. Examples of reprogramming factors include, but are not limited to: Oct4 protein, Sox2 protein, Klf4 protein, c-Myc protein, I-Myc protein, TERT protein, Nanog protein, Lin28 protein, Utf1 protein, Aicda protein, miR200 micro-RNA, miR302 micro-RNA, miR367 micro-RNA, miR369 micro-RNA and biologically active fragments, analogues, variants and family-members thereof. Certain embodiments are therefore directed to a method for reprogramming a cell in vivo. In one embodiment, the cell in vivo is reprogrammed by transfecting the cell with one or more nucleic acids encoding one or more reprogramming factors. In one embodiment, the one or more nucleic acids includes an RNA molecule that encodes Oct4 protein. In another embodiment, the one or more nucleic acids also includes one or more RNA molecules that encodes Sox2 protein, Klf4 protein, and c-Myc protein. In yet another embodiment, the one or more nucleic acids also includes an RNA molecule that encodes Lin28 protein. In one embodiment, the cell is a human skin cell, and the human skin cell is reprogrammed to a pluripotent stem cell. In another embodiment, the cell is a human skin cell, and the human skin cell is reprogrammed to a glucose-responsive insulin-producing cell. Examples of other cells that can be reprogrammed and other cells to which a cell can be reprogrammed include, but are not limited to: skin cells, pluripotent stem cells, mesenchymal stem cells, β-cells, retinal pigmented epithelial cells, hematopoietic cells, cardiac cells, airway epithelial cells, neural stem cells, neurons, glial cells, bone cells, blood cells, and dental pulp stem cells. In one embodiment, the cell is contacted with a medium that supports the reprogrammed cell. In one embodiment, the medium also supports the cell.
- Importantly, infecting skin cells with viruses encoding Oct4, Sox2, Klf4, and c-Myc, combined with culturing the cells in a medium that supports the growth of cardiomyocytes, has been reported to cause reprogramming of the skin cells to cardiomyocytes, without first reprogramming the skin cells to pluripotent stem cells (See Efs et al Nat Cell Biol. 2011; 13:215-22, the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference). In certain situations, direct reprogramming (reprogramming one somatic cell to another somatic cell without first reprogramming the somatic cell to a pluripotent stem cell, also known as “transdifferentiation”) may be desirable, in part because culturing pluripotent stem cells can be time-consuming and expensive, the additional handling involved in establishing and characterizing a stable pluripotent stem cell line can carry an increased risk of contamination, and the additional time in culture associated with first producing pluripotent stem cells can carry an increased risk of genomic instability and the acquisition of mutations, including point mutations, copy-number variations, and karyotypic abnormalities. Certain embodiments are therefore directed to a method for reprogramming a somatic cell in vivo, wherein the cell is reprogrammed to a somatic cell, and wherein a characterized pluripotent stem-cell line is not produced.
- It has been further discovered that, in certain situations, fewer total transfections may be required to reprogram a cell according to the methods of the present invention than according to other methods. Certain embodiments are therefore directed to a method for reprogramming a cell in vivo, wherein between about 1 and about 12 transfections are performed during about 20 consecutive days, or between about 4 and about 10 transfections are performed during about 15 consecutive days, or between about 4 and about 8 transfections are performed during about 10 consecutive days. It is recognized that when a cell is contacted with a medium containing nucleic acid molecules, the cell may likely come into contact with and/or internalize more than one nucleic acid molecule either simultaneously or at different times. A cell can therefore be contacted with a nucleic acid more than once, e.g. repeatedly, even when a cell is contacted only once with a medium containing nucleic acids.
- Of note, nucleic acids can contain one or more non-canonical or “modified” residues as described herein. For instance, any of the non-canonical nucleotides described herein can be used in the present reprgramming methods. In one embodiment, pseudouridine-5′-triphosphate can be substituted for uridine-5′-triphosphate in an in vitro-transcription reaction to yield synthetic RNA, wherein up to 100% of the uridine residues of the synthetic RNA may be replaced with pseudouridine residues. In vitro-transcription can yield RNA with residual immunogenicity, even when pseudouridine and 5-methylcytidine are completely substituted for uridine and cytidine, respectively (see, e.g., Angel. Reprogramming Human Somatic Cells to Pluripotency Using RNA [Doctoral Thesis]. Cambridge, Mass.: MIT; 2011, the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference). For this reason, it is common to add an immunosuppressant to the transfection medium when transfecting cells with RNA. In certain situations, adding an immunosuppressant to the transfection medium may not be desirable, in part because the recombinant immunosuppressant most commonly used for this purpose, B18R, can be expensive and difficult to manufacture. It has now been discovered that cells in vivo can be transfected and/or reprogrammed according to the methods of the present invention, without using B18R or any other immunosuppressant. It has been further discovered that reprogramming cells in vivo according to the methods of the present invention without using immunosuppressants can be rapid, efficient, and reliable. Certain embodiments are therefore directed to a method for transfecting a cell in vivo, wherein the transfection medium does not contain an immunosuppressant. Other embodiments are directed to a method for reprogramming a cell in vivo, wherein the transfection medium does not contain an immunosuppressant. In certain situations, for example when using a high cell density, it may be beneficial to add an immunosuppressant to the transfection medium. Certain embodiments are therefore directed to a method for transfecting a cell in vivo, wherein the transfection medium contains an immunosuppressant. Other embodiments are directed to a method for reprogramming a cell in vivo, wherein the transfection medium contains an immunosuppressant. In one embodiment, the immunosuppressant is B18R or a biologically active fragment, analogue, variant or family-member thereof or dexamethasone or a derivative thereof. In one embodiment, the transfection medium does not contain an immunosuppressant, and the nucleic-acid dose is chosen to prevent excessive toxicity. In another embodiment, the nucleic-acid dose is less than about 1 mg/cm2 of tissue or less than about 1 mg/100,000 cells or less than about 10 mg/kg.
- Reprogrammed cells produced according to certain embodiments of the present invention are suitable for therapeutic and/or cosmetic applications as they do not contain undesirable exogenous DNA sequences, and they are not exposed to animal-derived or human-derived products, which may be undefined, and which may contain toxic and/or pathogenic contaminants. Furthermore, the high speed, efficiency, and reliability of certain embodiments of the present invention may reduce the risk of acquisition and accumulation of mutations and other chromosomal abnormalities. Certain embodiments of the present invention can thus be used to generate cells that have a safety profile adequate for use in therapeutic and/or cosmetic applications. For example, reprogramming cells using RNA and the medium of the present invention, wherein the medium does not contain animal or human-derived components, can yield cells that have not been exposed to allogeneic material. Certain embodiments are therefore directed to a reprogrammed cell that has a desirable safety profile. In one embodiment, the reprogrammed cell has a normal karyotype. In another embodiment, the reprogrammed cell has fewer than about 5 copy-number variations (CNVs) relative to the patient genome, such as fewer than about 3 copy-number variations relative to the patient genome, or no copy-number variations relative to the patient genome. In yet another embodiment, the reprogrammed cell has a normal karyotype and fewer than about 100 single nucleotide variants in coding regions relative to the patient genome, or fewer than about 50 single nucleotide variants in coding regions relative to the patient genome, or fewer than about 10 single nucleotide variants in coding regions relative to the patient genome.
- Endotoxins and nucleases can co-purify and/or become associated with other proteins, such as serum albumin. Recombinant proteins, in particular, can often have high levels of associated endotoxins and nucleases, due in part to the lysis of cells that can take place during their production. Endotoxins and nucleases can be reduced, removed, replaced or otherwise inactivated by many of the methods of the present invention, including, for example, by acetylation, by addition of a stabilizer such as sodium octanoate, followed by heat treatment, by the addition of nuclease inhibitors to the albumin solution and/or medium, by crystallization, by contacting with one or more ion-exchange resins, by contacting with charcoal, by preparative electrophoresis or by affinity chromatography. It has now been discovered that partially or completely reducing, removing, replacing or otherwise inactivating endotoxins and/or nucleases from a medium and/or from one or more components of a medium can increase the efficiency with which cells can be transfected and reprogrammed. Certain embodiments are therefore directed to a method for transfecting a cell in vivo with one or more nucleic acids, wherein the transfection medium is treated to partially or completely reduce, remove, replace or otherwise inactivate one or more endotoxins and/or nucleases. Other embodiments are directed to a medium that causes minimal degradation of nucleic acids. In one embodiment, the medium contains less than about 1 EU/mL, or less than about 0.1 EU/mL, or less than about 0.01 EU/mL.
- In certain situations, protein-based lipid carriers such as serum albumin can be replaced with non-protein-based lipid carriers such as methyl-beta-cyclodextrin. The medium of the present invention can also be used without a lipid carrier, for example, when transfection is performed using a method that may not require or may not benefit from the presence of a lipid carrier, for example, using one or more lipid-based transfection reagents, polymer-based transfection reagents or peptide-based transfection reagents or using electroporation. Many protein-associated molecules, such as metals, can be highly toxic to cells in vivo. This toxicity can cause decreased viability, as well as the acquisition of mutations. Certain embodiments thus have the additional benefit of producing cells that are free from toxic molecules.
- The associated-molecule component of a protein can be measured by suspending the protein in solution and measuring the conductivity of the solution. Certain embodiments are therefore directed to a medium that contains a protein, wherein about a 10% solution of the protein in water has a conductivity of less than about 500 μmho/cm. In one embodiment, the solution has a conductivity of less than about 50 μmho/cm. In another embodiment, less than about 0.65% of the dry weight of the protein comprises lipids and/or less than about 0.35% of the dry weight of the protein comprises free fatty acids.
- The amount of nucleic acid delivered to cells in vivo can be increased to increase the desired effect of the nucleic acid. However, increasing the amount of nucleic acid delivered to cells in vivo beyond a certain point can cause a decrease in the viability of the cells, due in part to toxicity of the transfection reagent. It has now been discovered that when a nucleic acid is delivered to a population of cells in vivo in a fixed volume (for example, cells in a region of tissue), the amount of nucleic acid delivered to each cell can depend on the total amount of nucleic acid delivered to the population of cells and to the density of the cells, with a higher cell density resulting in less nucleic acid being delivered to each cell. In certain embodiments, a cell in vivo is transfected with one or more nucleic acids more than once. Under certain conditions, for example when the cells are proliferating, the cell density may change from one transfection to the next. Certain embodiments are therefore directed to a method for transfecting a cell in vivo with a nucleic acid, wherein the cell is transfected more than once, and wherein the amount of nucleic acid delivered to the cell is different for two of the transfections. In one embodiment, the cell proliferates between two of the transfections, and the amount of nucleic acid delivered to the cell is greater for the second of the two transfections than for the first of the two transfections. In another embodiment, the cell is transfected more than twice, and the amount of nucleic acid delivered to the cell is greater for the second of three transfections than for the first of the same three transfections, and the amount of nucleic acid delivered to the cells is greater for the third of the same three transfections than for the second of the same three transfections. In yet another embodiment, the cell is transfected more than once, and the maximum amount of nucleic acid delivered to the cell during each transfection is sufficiently low to yield at least about 80% viability for at least two consecutive transfections.
- It has now been discovered that modulating the amount of nucleic acid delivered to a population of proliferating cells in vivo in a series of transfections can result in both an increased effect of the nucleic acid and increased viability of the cells. It has been further discovered that, in certain situations, when cells in vivo are contacted with one or more nucleic acids encoding one or more reprogramming factors in a series of transfections, the efficiency of reprogramming can be increased when the amount of nucleic acid delivered in later transfections is greater than the amount of nucleic acid delivered in earlier transfections, for at least part of the series of transfections. Certain embodiments are therefore directed to a method for reprogramming a cell in vivo, wherein one or more nucleic acids is repeatedly delivered to the cell in a series of transfections, and the amount of the nucleic acid delivered to the cell is greater for at least one later transfection than for at least one earlier transfection. In one embodiment, the cell is transfected between about 2 and about 10 times, or between about 3 and about 8 times, or between about 4 and about 6 times. In another embodiment, the one or more nucleic acids includes at least one RNA molecule, the cell is transfected between about 2 and about 10 times, and the amount of nucleic acid delivered to the cell in each transfection is the same as or greater than the amount of nucleic acid delivered to the cell in the most recent previous transfection. In yet another embodiment, the amount of nucleic acid delivered to the cell in the first transfection is between about 20 ng/cm2 and about 250 ng/cm2, or between 100 ng/cm2 and 600 ng/cm2. In yet another embodiment, the cell is transfected about 5 times at intervals of between about 12 and about 48 hours, and the amount of nucleic acid delivered to the cell is about 25 ng/cm2 for the first transfection, about 50 ng/cm2 for the second transfection, about 100 ng/cm2 for the third transfection, about 200 ng/cm2 for the fourth transfection, and about 400 ng/cm2 for the fifth transfection. In yet another embodiment, the cell is further transfected at least once after the fifth transfection, and the amount of nucleic acid delivered to the cell is about 400 ng/cm2.
- Certain embodiments are directed to a method for transfecting a cell in vivo with a nucleic acid, wherein the amount of nucleic acid is determined by measuring the cell density, and choosing the amount of nucleic acid to transfect based on the measurement of cell density. In one embodiment, the cell density is measured by optical means. In another embodiment, the cell is transfected repeatedly, the cell density increases between two transfections, and the amount of nucleic acid transfected is greater for the second of the two transfections than for the first of the two transfections.
- It has now been discovered that, in certain situations, the amount of a circulating protein that is produced in a patient can be increased by administering to a patient a nucleic acid at a plurality of administration sites. In certain embodiments, the amount of a circulating protein is increased relative to the amount of the circulating protein that is produced in a patient by administering to the patient the nucleic acid at a single injection site. In one embodiment, the administering is by injection. In another embodiment, the injection is intradermal injection. In still another embodiment, the injection is subcutaneous or intramuscular injection. In some embodiments, the plurality of administration sites comprise administration sites in the skin. In other embodiments, the plurality of administration sites are at least about 1 or at least about 2 or at least about 5 or at least about 10 or at least about 20 or at least about 50 or at least about 100 administration sites. In one embodiment, the administering is performed within at least about 5 minutes or at least about 10 minutes or at least about 30 minutes or at least about 1 hour or at least about 2 hours or at least about 5 hours or at least about 12 hours or at least about 1 day. In certain embodiments, the amount of a circulating protein is increased by at least about 10 percent or at least about 20 percent or at least about 50 percent or at least about 100 percent or at least about 3-fold or at least about 5-fold or at least about 10-fold or at least about 20-fold or at least about 50-fold or at least about 100-fold or at least about 500-fold or at least about 1000-fold or greater than 1000-fold.
- It has now been discovered that, in certain situations, the in vivo transfection efficiency and viability of cells contacted with the medium of the present invention can be improved by conditioning the medium. Certain embodiments are therefore directed to a method for conditioning a medium. Other embodiments are directed to a medium that is conditioned. In one embodiment, the feeders are fibroblasts, and the medium is conditioned for approximately 24 hours. Other embodiments are directed to a method for transfecting a cell in vivo, wherein the transfection medium is conditioned. Other embodiments are directed to a method for reprogramming and/or gene-editing a cell in vivo, wherein the medium is conditioned. In one embodiment, the feeders are mitotically inactivated, for example, by exposure to a chemical such as mitomycin-C or by exposure to gamma radiation. In certain embodiments, it may be beneficial to use only autologous materials, in part to, for example and not wishing to be bound by theory, avoid the risk of disease transmission from the feeders to the cell or the patient. Certain embodiments are therefore directed to a method for transfecting a cell in vivo, wherein the transfection medium is conditioned, and wherein the feeders are derived from the same individual as the cell being transfected. Other embodiments are directed to a method for reprogramming and/or gene-editing a cell in vivo, wherein the medium is conditioned, and wherein the feeders are derived from the same individual as the cell being reprogrammed and/or gene-edited.
- Several molecules can be added to media by conditioning. Certain embodiments are therefore directed to a medium that is supplemented with one or more molecules that are present in a conditioned medium. In one embodiment, the medium is supplemented with Wnt1, Wnt2, Wnt3, Wnt3a or a biologically active fragment, analogue, variant, agonist, or family-member thereof. In another embodiment, the medium is supplemented with TGF-β or a biologically active fragment, analogue, variant, agonist, or family-member thereof. In yet another embodiment, a cell in vivo is reprogrammed according to the method of the present invention, wherein the medium is not supplemented with TGF-β for between about 1 and about 5 days, and is then supplemented with TGF-β for at least about 2 days. In yet another embodiment, the medium is supplemented with IL-6, IL-6R or a biologically active fragment, analogue, variant, agonist, or family-member thereof. In yet another embodiment, the medium is supplemented with a sphingolipid or a fatty acid. In still another embodiment, the sphingolipid is lysophosphatidic acid, lysosphingomyelin, sphingosine-1-phosphate or a biologically active analogue, variant or derivative thereof.
- In addition to mitotically inactivating cells, under certain conditions, irradiation can change the gene expression of cells, causing cells to produce less of certain proteins and more of certain other proteins that non-irradiated cells, for example, members of the Wnt family of proteins. In addition, certain members of the Wnt family of proteins can promote the growth and transformation of cells. It has now been discovered that, in certain situations, the efficiency of reprogramming can be greatly increased by contacting a cell in vivo with a medium that is conditioned using irradiated feeders instead of mitomycin-c-treated feeders. It has been further discovered that the increase in reprogramming efficiency observed when using irradiated feeders is caused in part by Wnt proteins that are secreted by the feeders. Certain embodiments are therefore directed to a method for reprogramming a cell in vivo, wherein the cell is contacted with Wnt1, Wnt2, Wnt3, Wnt3a or a biologically active fragment, analogue, variant, family-member or agonist thereof, including agonists of downstream targets of Wnt proteins, and/or agents that mimic one or more of the biological effects of Wnt proteins, for example, 2-amino-4-[3,4-(methylenedioxy)benzylamino]-6-(3-methoxyphenyl)pyrimidine.
- Because of the low efficiency of many DNA-based reprogramming methods, these methods may be difficult or impossible to use with cells derived from patient samples, which may contain only a small number of cells. In contrast, the high efficiency of certain embodiments of the present invention can allow reliable reprogramming of a small number of cells, including single cells. Certain embodiments are directed to a method for reprogramming a small number of cells. Other embodiments are directed to a method for reprogramming a single cell. In one embodiment, the cell is contacted with one or more enzymes. In another embodiment, the enzyme is collagenase. In yet another embodiment, the collagenase is animal-component free. In one embodiment, the collagenase is present at a concentration of between about 0.1 mg/mL and about 10 mg/mL, or between about 0.5 mg/mL and about 5 mg/mL. In another embodiment, the cell is a blood cell. In yet another embodiment, the cell is contacted with a medium containing one or more proteins that is derived from the patient's blood. In still another embodiment, the cell is contacted with a medium comprising: DMEM/F12+2 mM L-alanyl-L-glutamine+between about 5% and about 25% patient-derived serum, or between about 10% and about 20% patient-derived serum, or about 20% patient-derived serum.
- It has now been discovered that, in certain situations, transfecting cells in vivo with a mixture of RNA encoding Oct4, Sox2, Klf4, and c-Myc using the medium of the present invention can cause the rate of proliferation of the cells to increase. When the amount of RNA delivered to the cells is too low to ensure that all of the cells are transfected, only a fraction of the cells may show an increased proliferation rate. In certain situations, such as when generating a personalized therapeutic, increasing the proliferation rate of cells may be desirable, in part because doing so can reduce the time necessary to generate the therapeutic, and therefore can reduce the cost of the therapeutic. Certain embodiments are therefore directed to a method for transfecting a cell in vivo with a mixture of RNA encoding Oct4, Sox2, Klf4, and c-Myc. In one embodiment, the cell exhibits an increased proliferation rate. In another embodiment, the cell is reprogrammed.
- Many diseases are associated with one or more mutations. Mutations can be corrected by contacting a cell with a nucleic acid that encodes a protein that, either alone or in combination with other molecules, corrects the mutation (an example of gene-editing). Examples of such proteins include: a nuclease, a transcription activator-like effector nuclease (TALEN), a zinc-finger nuclease, a meganuclease, a nickase, a clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR)-associated protein or a natural or engineered variant, family-member, orthologue, fragment or fusion construct thereof. Certain embodiments are therefore directed to a method for transfecting a cell in vivo with a nucleic acid, wherein the nucleic acid encodes a protein that, either alone or in combination with other molecules, creates a single-strand or double-strand break in a DNA molecule.
- In a one embodiment, the protein is a zinc finger nuclease or a TALEN. In another embodiment, the nucleic acid is an RNA molecule. In yet another embodiment, the single-strand or double-strand break is within about 5,000,000 bases of the transcription start site of a gene selected from the group: CCR5, CXCR4, GAD1, GAD2, CFTR, HBA1, HBA2, HBB, HBD, FANCA, XPA, XPB, XPC, ERCC2, POLH, HTT, DMD, SOD1, APOE, PRNP, BRCA1, and BRCA2 or an analogue, variant or family-member thereof. In one embodiment, the present invention relates to gene-editing of the MYC protein (e.g. correcting one or more muations that may be linked to cancer), optionally with a TALEN. In yet another embodiment, the cell is transfected with a nucleic acid that acts as a repair template by either causing the insertion of a DNA sequence in the region of the single-strand or double-strand break or by causing the DNA sequence in the region of the single-strand or double-strand break to otherwise change. In yet another embodiment, the cell is reprogrammed, and subsequently, the cell is gene-edited. In yet another embodiment, the cell is gene-edited, and subsequently, the cell is reprogrammed. In yet another embodiment, the gene-editing and reprogramming are performed within about 7 days of each other. In yet another embodiment, the gene-editing and reprogramming occur simultaneously or on the same day. In yet another embodiment, the cell is a skin cell, the skin cell is gene-edited to disrupt the CCR5 gene, the skin cell is reprogrammed to a hematopoietic stem cell, thus producing a therapeutic for HIV/AIDS, and the therapeutic is used to treat a patient with HIV/AIDS. In yet another embodiment, the skin cell is derived from the same patient whom the therapeutic is used to treat.
- Genes that can be edited according to the methods of the present invention to produce therapeutics of the present invention include genes that can be edited to restore normal function, as well as genes that can be edited to reduce or eliminate function. Such genes include, but are not limited to beta globin (HBB), mutations in which can cause sickle cell disease (SCD) and β-thalassemia, breast cancer 1, early onset (BRCA1) and breast cancer 2, early onset (BRCA2), mutations in which can increase susceptibility to breast cancer, C-C chemokine receptor type 5 (CCR5) and C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4), mutations in which can confer resistance to HIV infection, cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), mutations in which can cause cystic fibrosis, dystrophin (DMD), mutations in which can cause muscular dystrophy, including Duchenne muscular dystrophy and Becker's muscular dystrophy, glutamate decarboxylase 1 and glutamate decarboxylase 2 (GAD1, GAD2), mutations in which can prevent autoimmune destruction of β-cells, hemoglobin alpha 1, hemoglobin alpha 2, and hemoglobin delta (HBA1, HBA2, and HBD), mutations in which can cause thalassemia, desmoplakin, keratin 5, keratin 14, plectin, integrin alpha-6, integrin beta-4, laminin subunit alpha-3, laminin subunit beta-3, laminin subunit gamma-2, collagen type VII alpha 1, collagen type XVII alpha 1, and matrix metalloproteinase-1 (DSP, KRT5, KRT14, PLEC1, ITGA6, ITGB4, LAMA3, LAMB3, LAMC2, COL7A1, COL17A1, and MMP1), mutations in which can cause epidermolysis bullosa, Huntington (HTT), mutations in which can cause Huntington's disease, superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1), mutations in which can cause amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), XPA, XPB, XPC, XPD (ERCC6) and polymerase (DNA directed), eta (POLH), mutations in which can cause xeroderma pigmentosum, leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2), mutations in which can cause Parkinson's disease, and Fanconi anemia, complementation groups A, B, C, D1, D2, E, F, G, I, J, L, M, N, P (FANCA, FANCB, FANCC, FANCD1, FANCD2, FANCE, FANCF, FANCG, FANCI, FANCJ, FANCL, FANCM, FANCN, FANCP), and RAD51 homolog C (S. cerevisiae) (RAD51C), mutations in which can cause Fanconi anemia.
- Certain embodiments are directed to a therapeutic comprising a nucleic acid. In one embodiment, the nucleic acid encodes one or more gene-editing proteins. Other embodiments are directed to a therapeutic comprising one or more cells that are transfected, reprogrammed, and/or gene-edited in vivo according to the methods of the present invention. In one embodiment, a cell is transfected, reprogrammed, and/or gene-edited, and the transfected, reprogrammed, and/or gene-edited cell is introduced into a patient. In another embodiment, the cell is harvested from the same patient into whom the transfected, reprogrammed and/or gene-edited cell is introduced. Examples of diseases that can be treated with therapeutics of the present invention include, but are not limited to Alzheimer's disease, spinal cord injury, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, cystic fibrosis, heart disease, including ischemic and dilated cardiomyopathy, macular degeneration, Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, diabetes, sickle-cell anemia, thalassemia, Fanconi anemia, xeroderma pigmentosum, muscular dystrophy, severe combined immunodeficiency, hereditary sensory neuropathy, cancer, and HIV/AIDS. In certain embodiments, the therapeutic comprises a cosmetic. In one embodiment, a cell is harvested from a patient, the cell is reprogrammed and expanded to a large number of adipose cells to produce a cosmetic, and the cosmetic is introduced into the patient. In still another embodiment, the cosmetic is used for tissue reconstruction.
- While detailed examples are provided herein for the production of specific types of cells and for the production of therapeutics comprising specific types of cells, it is recognized that the methods of the present invention can be used to produce many other types of cells, and to produce therapeutics comprising one or more of many other types of cells, for example, by reprogramming a cell according to the methods of the present invention, and culturing the cell under conditions that mimic one or more aspects of development by providing conditions that resemble the conditions present in the cellular microenvironment during development.
- Certain embodiments are directed to a library of cells with a variety of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) types (“HLA-matched libraries”). An HLA-matched library may be beneficial in part because it can provide for the rapid production and/or distribution of therapeutics without the patient having to wait for a therapeutic to be produced from the patient's cells. Such a library may be particularly beneficial for the production of cosmetics and for the treatment of heart disease and diseases of the blood and/or immune system for which patients may benefit from the immediate availability of a therapeutic or cosmetic.
- The DNA sequence of a cell can be altered by contacting the cell with a gene-editing protein or by inducing the cell to express a gene-editing protein. However, previously disclosed gene-editing proteins suffer from low binding efficiency and excessive off-target activity, which can introduce undesired mutations in the DNA of the cell, severely limiting their use in vivo, for example in therapeutic and cosmetic applications, in which the introduction of undesired mutations in a patient's cells could lead to the development of cancer. It has now been discovered that gene-editing proteins that comprise the StsI endonuclease cleavage domain (SEQ ID NO: 1) can exhibit substantially lower off-target activity in vivo than previously disclosed gene-editing proteins, while maintaining a high level of on-target activity in vivo. Other novel engineered proteins have also been discovered that can exhibit high on-target activity in vivo, low off-target activity in vivo, small size, solubility, and other desirable characteristics when they are used as the nuclease domain of a gene-editing protein: StsI-HA (SEQ ID NO: 2), StsI-HA2 (SEQ ID NO: 3), StsI-UHA (SEQ ID NO: 4), StsI-UHA2 (SEQ ID NO: 5), StsI-HF (SEQ ID NO: 6), and StsI-UHF (SEQ ID NO: 7). StsI-HA, StsI-HA2 (high activity), StsI-UHA, and StsI-UHA2 (ultra-high activity) can exhibit higher on-target activity in vivo than both wild-type StsI and wild-type FokI, due in part to specific amino-acid substitutions within the N-terminal region at the 34 and 61 positions, while StsI-HF (high fidelity) and StsI-UHF (ultra-high fidelity) can exhibit lower off-target activity in vivo than both wild-type StsI and wild-type FokI, due in part to specific amino-acid substitutions within the C-terminal region at the 141 and 152 positions.
- Certain embodiments are therefore directed to a protein. In some embodiments, the protein is present in vivo. In other embodiments, the protein comprises a nuclease domain. In one embodiment, the nuclease domain comprises one or more of: the cleavage domain of FokI endonuclease (SEQ ID NO: 53), the cleavage domain of StsI endonuclease (SEQ ID NO: 1), StsI-HA (SEQ ID NO: 2), StsI-HA2 (SEQ ID NO: 3), StsI-UHA (SEQ ID NO: 4), StsI-UHA2 (SEQ ID NO: 5), StsI-HF (SEQ ID NO: 6), and StsI-UHF (SEQ ID NO: 7) or a biologically active fragment or variant thereof.
- It has also been discovered that engineered gene-editing proteins that comprise DNA-binding domains comprising certain novel repeat sequences can exhibit lower off-target activity in vivo than previously disclosed gene-editing proteins, while maintaining a high level of on-target activity in vivo. Certain of these engineered gene-editing proteins can provide several advantages over previously disclosed gene-editing proteins, including, for example, increased flexibility of the linker region connecting repeat sequences, which can result in increased binding efficiency. Certain embodiments are therefore directed to a protein comprising a plurality of repeat sequences. In one embodiment, at least one of the repeat sequences contains the amino-acid sequence: GabG, where “a” and “b” each represent any amino acid. In one embodiment, the protein is a gene-editing protein. In another embodiment, one or more of the repeat sequences are present in a DNA-binding domain. In a further embodiment, “a” and “b” are each independently selected from the group: H and G. In a still further embodiment, “a” and “b” are H and G, respectively. In one embodiment, the amino-acid sequence is present within about 5 amino acids of the C-terminus of the repeat sequence. In another embodiment, the amino-acid sequence is present at the C-terminus of the repeat sequence. In some embodiments, one or more G in the amino-acid sequence GabG is replaced with one or more amino acids other than G, for example A, H or GG. In one embodiment, the repeat sequence has a length of between about 32 and about 40 amino acids or between about 33 and about 39 amino acids or between about 34 and 38 amino acids or between about 35 and about 37 amino acids or about 36 amino acids or greater than about 32 amino acids or greater than about 33 amino acids or greater than about 34 amino acids or greater than about 35 amino acids. Other embodiments are directed to a protein comprising one or more transcription activator-like effector domains. In one embodiment, at least one of the transcription activator-like effector domains comprises a repeat sequence. Other embodiments are directed to a protein comprising a plurality of repeat sequences generated by inserting one or more amino acids between at least two of the repeat sequences of a transcription activator-like effector domain. In one embodiment, one or more amino acids is inserted about 1 or about 2 or about 3 or about 4 or about 5 amino acids from the C-terminus of at least one repeat sequence. Still other embodiments are directed to a protein comprising a plurality of repeat sequences, wherein about every other repeat sequence has a different length than the repeat sequence immediately preceding or following the repeat sequence. In one embodiment, every other repeat sequence is about 36 amino acids long. In another embodiment, every other repeat sequence is 36 amino acids long. Still other embodiments are directed to a protein comprising a plurality of repeat sequences, wherein the plurality of repeat sequences comprises at least two repeat sequences that are each at least 36 amino acids long, and wherein at least two of the repeat sequences that are at least 36 amino acids long are separated by at least one repeat sequence that is less than 36 amino acids long. Some embodiments are directed to a protein that comprises one or more sequences selected from, for example, SEQ ID NO: 54, SEQ ID NO: 55, SEQ ID NO: 56, SEQ ID NO: 57, SEQ ID NO: 58, SEQ ID NO: 59, and SEQ ID NO: 60.
- Other embodiments are directed to a protein that comprises a DNA-binding domain. In some embodiments, the DNA-binding domain comprises a plurality of repeat sequences. In one embodiment, the plurality of repeat sequences enables high-specificity recognition of a binding site in a target DNA molecule. In another embodiment, at least two of the repeat sequences have at least about 50%, or about 60%, or about 70%, or about 80%, or about 90%, or about 95%, or about 98%, or about 99% homology to each other. In a further embodiment, at least one of the repeat sequences comprises one or more regions capable of binding to a binding site in a target DNA molecule. In a still further embodiment, the binding site comprises a defined sequence of between about 1 to about 5 bases in length. In one embodiment, the DNA-binding domain comprises a zinc finger. In another embodiment, the DNA-binding domain comprises a transcription activator-like effector (TALE). In a further embodiment, the plurality of repeat sequences includes at least one repeat sequence having at least about 50% or about 60% or about 70% or about 80% or about 90% or about 95% or about 98%, or about 99% homology to a TALE. In a still further embodiment, the gene-editing protein comprises a clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR)-associated protein. In one embodiment, the gene-editing protein comprises a nuclear-localization sequence. In another embodiment, the nuclear-localization sequence comprises the amino-acid sequence: PKKKRKV (SEQ ID NO:471). In one embodiment, the gene-editing protein comprises a mitochondrial-localization sequence.

Sub-confluent layers of primary human keratinocytes cultured in EpiLife medium were transfected in wells of a 6 well plate according to Example 3 with 1 μg of RNA per well. 12, 24, 36 and 48 h following transfection, 0.5 mL of medium was removed and 0.5 mL of fresh EpiLife medium was added to the plate. After the final medium sampling, the cells were harvested by trypsinization, and total RNA was isolated using the RNeasy mini kit (Qiagen). Genomic DNA was digested using DNase I and RNA was purified. Expression of interferon-β and GAPDH was measured by RT-PCR (
FIG. 5 ). - RNA encoding human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) was synthesized according to Example 1 with the following nucleotides: U, G, 5moU, C. A sub-confluent layer of primary human dermal fibroblasts cultured in DMEM+10% FBS were transfected in wells of a 24 well plate according to Example 3 with 0.25 μg of RNA per well. 12 h after transfection, cells were fixed and stained using a 1:50 dilution of rabbit anti-hTERT antibody (Millipore, Part Number: MABE14) (
FIG. 16 ). - Primary human fibroblasts were plated in 6-well plates coated with recombinant human fibronectin and recombinant human vitronectin (each diluted in DMEM/F12 to a concentration of 1 μg/mL, 1 mL/well, and incubated at room temperature for 1 h) at a density of 10,000 cells/well in transfection medium. The following day, the cells were transfected as in Example 2 with RNA synthesized according to Example 1. The following day cells in one of the wells were transfected a second time. Two days after the second transfection, the efficiency of gene editing was measured using a mutation-specific nuclease assay.
- For transfection in 6-well plates, 1 μg RNA encoding gene-editing
proteins targeting exon 16 of the human APP gene, 1 μg single-stranded repair template DNA containing a PstI restriction site that was not present in the target cells, and 6 μL transfection reagent (LIPOFECTAMINE RNAiMAX, Life Technologies Corporation) were first diluted separately in complexation medium (Opti-MEM, Life Technologies Corporation) to a total volume of 120 μL. Diluted RNA, repair template, and transfection reagent were then mixed and incubated for 15 min at room temperature, according to the transfection reagent-manufacturer's instructions. Complexes were added to cells in culture. Approximately 120 μL of complexes were added to each well of a 6-well plate, which already contained 2 mL of transfection medium per well. Plates were shaken gently to distribute the complexes throughout the well. Cells were incubated with complexes for 4 hours to overnight, before replacing the medium with fresh transfection medium (2 mL/well). The next day, the medium was changed to DMEM+10% FBS. Two days after transfection, genomic DNA was isolated and purified. A region within the APP gene was amplified by PCR, and the amplified product was digested with PstI and analyzed by gel electrophoresis. - 40 female NCr nu/nu mice were injected subcutaneously with 5×106 MDA-MB-231 tumor cells in 50% Matrigel (BD Biosciences). Cell injection volume was 0.2 mL/mouse. The age of the mice at the start of the study was 8 to 12 weeks. A pair match was conducted, and animals were divided into 4 groups of 10 animals each when the tumors reached an average size of 100-150 mm3, and treatment was begun. Body weight was measured every day for the first 5 days, and then biweekly to the end of the study. Treatment consisted of RIBOSLICE BIRC5-1.2 complexed with a vehicle (
LIPOFECTAMINE 2000, Life Technologies Corporation). To prepare the dosing solution for each group, 308 μL of complexation buffer (Opti-MEM, Life Technologies Corporation) was pipetted into each of two sterile, RNase-free 1.5 mL tubes. 22 μL of RIBOSLICE BIRC5-1.2 (500 ng/μL) was added to one of the two tubes, and the contents of the tube were mixed by pipetting. 22 μL of vehicle was added to the second tube. The contents of the second tube were mixed, and then transferred to the first tube, and mixed with the contents of the first tube by pipetting to form complexes. Complexes were incubated at room temperature for 10 min. During the incubation, syringes were loaded. Animals were injected either intravenously or intratumorally with a total dose of 1 μg RNA/animal in 60 μL total volume/animal. A total of 5 treatments were given, with injections performed every other day. Doses were not adjusted for body weight. Animals were followed for 17 days. No significant reduction in mean body weight was observed, demonstrating the in vivo safety of RIBOSLICE gene-editing RNA. - Delivery reagents including polyethyleneimine (PEI), various commercial lipid-based transfection reagents, a peptide-based transfection reagent (N-TER, Sigma-Aldrich Co. LLC.), and several lipid-based and sterol-based delivery reagents were screened for transfection efficiency and toxicity in vitro. Delivery reagents were complexed with RIBOSLICE BIRC5-1.2, and complexes were delivered to HeLa cells in culture. Toxicity was assessed by analyzing
cell density 24 h after transfection. Transfection efficiency was assessed by analyzing morphological changes. The tested reagents exhibited a wide range of toxicities and transfection efficiencies. Reagents containing a higher proportion of ester bonds exhibited lower toxicities than reagents containing a lower proportion of ester bonds or no ester bonds. - High-Concentration Liposomal RIBOSLICE was prepared by mixing 1 μg RNA at 500 ng/μL with 3 μL of complexation medium (Opti-MEM, Life Technologies Corporation), and 2.5 μL of transfection reagent (
LIPOFECTAMINE 2000, Life Technologies Corporation) per μg of RNA with 2.5 μL of complexation medium.

Alternatively, a transfection reagent containing DOSPA or DOSPER is used. - 40 female NCr nu/nu mice were injected subcutaneously with 1×107 U-251 tumor cells. Cell injection volume was 0.2 mL/mouse. The age of the mice at the start of the study was 8 to 12 weeks. A pair match was conducted, and animals were divided into 4 groups of 10 animals each when the tumors reached an average size of 35-50 mm3, and treatment was begun. Body weight was measured every day for the first 5 days, and then biweekly to the end of the study. Caliper measurements were made biweekly, and tumor size was calculated. Treatment consisted of RIBOSLICE BIRC5-2.1 complexed with a vehicle (
LIPOFECTAMINE 2000, Life Technologies Corporation). To prepare the dosing solution, 294 μL of complexation buffer (Opti-MEM, Life Technologies Corporation) was pipetted into a tube containing 196 μL of RIBOSLICE BIRC5-1.2 (500 ng/μL), and the contents of the tube were mixed by pipetting. 245 μL of complexation buffer was pipetted into a tube containing 245 μL of vehicle. The contents of the second tube were mixed, and then transferred to the first tube, and mixed with the contents of the first tube by pipetting to form complexes. Complexes were incubated at room temperature for 10 min. During the incubation, syringes were loaded. Animals were injected intratumorally with a total dose of either 2 μg or 5 μg RNA/animal in either 20 μL or 50 μL total volume/animal. A total of 5 treatments were given, with injections performed every other day. Doses were not adjusted for body weight. Animals were followed for 25 days. - Liposomes are prepared using the following formulation: 3.2 mg/mL N-(carbonyl-ethoxypolyethylene glycol 2000)-1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (MPEG2000-DSPE), 9.6 mg/mL fully hydrogenated phosphatidylcholine, 3.2 mg/mL cholesterol, 2 mg/mL ammonium sulfate, and histidine as a buffer. pH is controlled using sodium hydroxide and isotonicity is maintained using sucrose.

RTA00). The rat TNFα ELISA is a solid phase enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The ELISA kit employs a TNFα-specific anti-rat monoclonal antibody for solid phase immobilization (pre-coated on the microtiter plate), and HRP conjugated to an anti-rat TNFα polyclonal antibody for detection. The reference standard provided with the kit is a recombinant rat TNFα. For each assay, plasma samples and standards were diluted with the diluent provided in each respective kit. For the TNFα ELISA, plasma samples were diluted 1:2.
- The standard curve consisted of six (6) serial 2-fold concentrations ranging from 800 to 12.5 pg/mL. Controls were reconstituted with diluent, and blanks contained diluent only.
- Following sample, standard, control, or diluent addition (50 μL per well, each in duplicate), plates were incubated for 2 hours at room temperature. Following a wash step to remove unbound substances, HRP conjugate was added to each well (100 μL/well), and plates were incubated for 2 hours at room temperature. Following a second wash step, 100 μL/well TMB substrate was added to the plate. The plate was incubated for 30 minutes at room temperature, protected from light, to allow the color reaction to develop. The reaction was stopped following the addition of HCl Stop Solution (100 μL/well). The optical density was read on a SpectraMax 340 (MOLECULAR DEVICES) plate reader at 450 nm, within 30 minutes following addition of Stop Solution. The intensity of the color measured was in proportion to the amount of rat TNFα bound in the initial step. A standard curve was generated for each assay plate, and test sample TNFα concentrations were determined by interpolation of absorbance A450 values from the standard curve and dilution factor. The assay range for the TNFα kit is 12.5-800 pg/mL, with a minimum detectable concentration of less than 10 pg/mL (with the 1:2 minimum required dilution for plasma samples).
- For IL-6 analysis, plasma IL-6 samples were analyzed using a commercially-available assay kit from R&D SYSTEMS (cat. no. R6000B—IL-6). The rat IL-6 ELISA is a solid phase enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The ELISA kit employs anti-rat IL-6 monoclonal antibody for solid phase immobilization (pre-coated on the microtiter plate), and HRP conjugated to IL-6-specific anti-rat polyclonal antibody for detection. The reference standard provided with the kit is a recombinant rat IL-6. Plasma samples were used undiluted (as provided), and standards were diluted with the diluent provided in the kit. The standard curve consisted of six (6) serial 2-fold concentrations ranging from 4,000 to 62.5 pg/mL. Controls were reconstituted with diluent, and blanks contained diluent only. Following sample, standard, control, or diluent addition (50 μL per well, each in duplicate), plates were incubated for 2 hours at room temperature. Following a wash step to remove unbound substances, HRP conjugate was added to each well (100 μL/well), and plates were incubated for 2 hours at room temperature. Following a second wash step, 100 μL/well TMB substrate was added to the plate. The plate was incubated for 30 minutes at room temperature, protected from light, to allow the color reaction to develop. The reaction was stopped following the addition of HCl Stop Solution (100 μL/well). The optical density was read on a SpectraMax 340 (MOLECULAR DEVICES) plate reader at 450 nm, within 30 minutes following addition of Stop Solution. The intensity of the color measured was in proportion to the amount of rat IL-6 bound in the initial step. A standard curve was generated for each assay plate, and test sample IL-6 concentrations were determined by interpolation of absorbance A450 values from the standard curve and dilution factor. The assay range for the IL-6 kit is 62.5-4,000 pg/mL, with a minimum detectable concentration of less than 21 pg/mL.
- For IFNα analysis, plasma IFNα samples were analyzed using a commercially-available assay kit from NOVATEINBIO (cat. no. BG-RAT11380). The ELISA is a solid phase enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The ELISA kit employs anti-rat IFNα monoclonal antibody for solid phase immobilization (pre-coated on the microtiter plate), and HRP conjugated antibody specific for IFNα for detection. Plasma samples were diluted 1:4, and the standards were used as provided in the kit. Standards consisted of six (6) serial 2-fold concentrations ranging from 100 to 3.1 pg/mL. Blanks contained diluent only. Following sample, standard, or diluent addition (50 μL per well, each in duplicate), HRP conjugate was added to each well (100 μL/well), and plates were incubated for 1 hours at 37° C. Following a wash step, 50 μL/well each of Chromogen Solution A and Chromogen Solution B were added to the plate. The plate was incubated for 15 minutes at 37° C., protected from light, to allow the color reaction to develop. The reaction was stopped following the addition of Stop Solution (50 μL/well). The optical density was read on a SpectraMax 340 (MOLECULAR DEVICES) plate reader at 450 nm. The intensity of the color measured was in proportion to the amount of rat IFNα bound in the initial step. A standard curve was generated for each assay plate, and test IFNα concentrations were determined by interpolation of absorbance A450 values from the standard curve and dilution factor. The assay range for the IFNα kit is 3.1-100 pg/mL, with a minimum detectable concentration of less than 1 pg/mL (4 pg/mL, with the 1:4 dilution required for plasma samples).
- The results of this study were, inter alia, that NOVECRIT was not detected at the
injection site 24 h after dosing (as assayed by RT-PCR). More specifically, NOVECRIT was not detected in any of the following samples (RT-PCR): serum (6 h, 24 h, 48 h and 72 h after dosing), liver (6 h and 24 h after dosing), and kidney (6 h and 24 h after dosing). Further, positive controls (spiked with NOVECRIT) yielded a robust signal in all tissues (as assayed RT-PCR).FIG. 18 depicts single administration of NOVECRIT induced a rapid increase and sustained level of NOVEPOIETIN in serum. The Y axis shows concentration of NOVEPOIETIN protein (mU/mL). This suggests, without wishing to be bound by theory, that the studied RNA therapeutic is able to provide therapeutically important pharmacodynamic properties. In fact, this PD behavior is vastly improved relative to wild type EPO (which is known in the art to have a half-life of about 4-12 hours). - Furthermore, serum spiked with NOVECRIT showed near-instant degradation of the RNA (as assayed by RT-PCR). Without wishing to be bound by theory, this data indicates that the present RNA therapeutics are safe and have little chance of toxicity limitations, for example, liver or kidney toxicities.
-
FIG. 19 depicts a single administration of NOVECRIT stimulated erythropoiesis, yielding elevated hematocrit for at least 14 days. The left panel shows % hematocrit on the Y axis, while the right panel shows % reticulocytes. Accordingly, the studied RNA therapeutic is fully functional. - With respect to cytokines, IL-6 and TNFα cytokine levels were below assay detection thresholds for all animals at each of the timepoints evaluated in this study. Low levels of IFN-□□ were only detectable in the
Day 8 samples from animals inGroups FIG. 20 depicts a table summarizing TNFα, IL-6, and IFNα cytokine levels in plasma samples collected from a maximum tolerated dose of NOVECRIT in male Sprague Dawley rats. Without wishing to be bound by theory, this data indicates that the present RNA therapeutics do not stimulate an unfavorable immunogenicity which has limited the therapeutic utility of certain RNA therapeutics. - The present RNA-based gene editing approaches were applied to the COL7A1 gene. This gene is of interest because, inter alia, it is frequently involved in dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa.
FIG. 21 depicts a SURVEYOR assay using the DNA of primary adult human dermal fibroblasts transfected with RNA TALENs targeting the sequence TGAGCAGAAGTGGCTCAGTG (SEQ ID NO:467) and TGGCTGTACAGCTACACCCC (SEQ ID NO:468), located within the COL7A1 gene. The bands present in the +RNA lane indicate editing of a region of the gene that is frequently involved in dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa.FIG. 22 depicts another SURVEYOR assay using the DNA of primary adult human dermal fibroblasts transfected with RNA TALENs, now targeting the sequence TTCCACTCCTGCAGGGCCCC (SEQ ID NO:469) and TCGCCCTTCAGCCCGCGTTC (SEQ ID NO:470), located within the COL7A1 gene. The bands present in the +RNA lane indicate editing of a region of the gene that is frequently involved in dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa. This data points to, among others, a gene editing approach to the treatment of certain genetic disorders such as dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa. - Experiments were conducted with in vitro transcribed synthetic RNA molecules containing non-canonical nucleotides and encoding gene-editing proteins. The immunogenicity and the gene-editing efficiency of in vitro transcribed synthetic RNA molecules having (1) only pseudouridine (psU) as a non-canonical nucleotide; (2) only 5-methylcytidine (5mC) as a non-canonical nucleotide; and (3) both of pseudouridine and 5-methylcytidine as non-canonical nucleotides was evaluated (as well as controls).
- Specifically, mRNA containing the following nucleotide combinations: (i) A,G,U,C, (ii) A,G,psU,C, (iii) A,G,U,5mC, and (iv) A,G,psU,5mC, and encoding TALEN pairs targeting the following DNA sequences, which can be found within the MYC gene: TCGGCCGCCGCCAAGCTCGT (SEQ ID NO:474) and TGCGCGCAGCCTGGTAGGAG (SEQ ID NO:475), were synthesized according to the methods described herein. Human dermal fibroblasts (MA001SK) were plated in 6-well and 24-well tissue culture plates in DMEM with 10% FBS at 100,000 and 10,000 cells per well, respectively. The next day, the cells were transfected in the 6-well plate with 2 μg of RNA (1 μg for each component of the TALEN pair) and the cells were transfected in the 24-well plate with 0.2 μg of RNA (0.1 μg for each component of the TALEN pair) according to the methods described herein. 24 hours after transfection, the total RNA from the cells in the 24-well culture plate was isolated using an RNeasy Mini Kit (74106; QIAGEN), including isolating the total RNA from a sample of cells that had not been transfected with RNA (negative control; “Neg.” in
FIG. 23 ). The genomic DNA was removed by a 15 minute digestion with DNase I (RNase-Free) (M0303L; NEW ENGLAND BIOLABS) and the reaction purified using an RNeasy Mini Kit. 1 μL of total RNA was used to assess gene expression by real-time RT-PCR using TAQMAN gene-expression assays (APPLIED BIOSYSTEMS) designed to detect expression of the immunogenicity markers TLR3, IFIT1, and IFIT2 (FIG. 23 ). The data were normalized to both the positive experimental control sample (“A,G,U,C”) and to a loading control (GAPDH). 48 hours after transfection, the genomic DNA was isolated from the cells in the 6-well culture plate using a DNeasy Blood and Tissue Kit (69506; QIAGEN), including from a sample of cells that had not been transfected with RNA (negative control, “Neg.” inFIG. 24 ). A 970 bp region of the MYC gene surrounding the predicted TALEN cut location was amplified using a 35 cycle 2-step PCR reaction containing the following primers: TAACTCAAGACTGCCTCCCGCTTT (SEQ ID NO: 476) and AGCCCAAGGTTTCAGAGGTGATGA (SEQ ID NO: 477). 160 ng was hybridized in 5 μL of amplified sequence from RNA-treated cells to 160 ng in 5 μL of amplified sequences from untreated MA001SK cells by mixing the two sequences with 0.5 μL of 1M KCl and 0.5 μL of 25 mM MgCl2 and running the following program in a thermocycler: 95° C. for 10 minutes; 95° C. to 85° C. at 0.625 C/s; 85° C. to 25° C. at 0.125 C/s. The SURVEYOR assay was performed by adding 0.5 μL of SURVEYOR nuclease and 0.5 μL of Enhancer from the SURVEYOR Mutation Detection Kit (7060201; INTEGRATED DNA TECHNOLOGIES) to the hybridized product, mixing, and incubating at 42° C. for 25 minutes. The protocol above was also used to process the positive control DNA sample provided with the SURVEYOR Mutation Detection Kit as a positive experimental control for the SURVEYOR Assay (“Assay Pos.” inFIG. 24 ). Samples were analyzed by agarose gel electrophoresis (FIG. 24 ). For each sample, gene-editing efficiency was calculated as a ratio of the intensity of the digested bands (indicated by “*” inFIG. 24 ) to that of the undigested band. - As shown in
FIG. 23 below, the samples from cells transfected with the positive control RNA (A,G,U,C), and the samples from cells transfected with RNA containing either pseudouridine or 5-methylcytidine exhibited upregulation of all three of the immunogenicity markers TLR3, IFIT1, and IFIT2. The sample from cells transfected with RNA containing both pseudouridine and 5-methylcytidine exhibited negligible upregulation of the immunogenicity markers (less than 0.01-fold of the positive control), demonstrating that in vitro transcribed synthetic RNA with both pseudouridine and 5-methylcytidine and encoding a gene-editing protein can evade detection by the innate-immune system of mammalian cells. - Further, as shown in
FIG. 24 below, the sample from cells transfected with RNA containing both pseudouridine and 5-methylcytidine exhibited highly efficient gene editing (41.7%), which was greater than the efficiency exhibited by samples from cells transfected with RNA containing pseudouridine alone (35.2%), demonstrating that in vitro transcribed synthetic RNA comprising both pseudouridine and 5-methylcytidine and encoding a gene-editing protein can both (i) gene-edit mammalian cells at high efficiency, and (ii) gene-edit mammalian cells at higher efficiency than in vitro transcribed synthetic RNA comprising pseudouridine and not comprising 5-methylcytidine. - RNA encoding gene editing proteins targeting the following sequences in the COL7A1 gene was synthesized according to Example 1: TGAGCAGAAGTGGCTCAGTG (SEQ ID NO:473) and TGGCTGTACAGCTACACCCC (SEQ ID NO:468) (see also table below).

A segment of the COL7A1 gene was amplified using the primers GCATCTGCCCTGCGGGAGATC (SEQ ID NO:478) and CCACGTTCTCCTTTCTCTCCCCGTTC (SEQ ID NO:479), which produce a 535 bp amplicon. The efficiency of gene editing was assessed using T7 Endonuclease I (“T7E1”, New England Biolabs) according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Group 1 was dosed via intradermal injection. Each dose was administered in four intradermal injections of 50 μL/injection for a total of 200 uL per animal. Injections were carried out on previously marked sites near the midline of the dorsal lumbar area (upper left, upper right, lower left and lower right quadrants).Group 2 was dosed four intradermal injections at 0.25 μg each (1.0 μg total) into previously marked sites near the midline of the dorsal lumbar area (upper left, upper right, lower left and lower right quadrants).Group 3 was dosed by subcutaneous injections into an area of the back located in the lower dorsal thoracic/lumbar region.Group 4 was dosed by rectal administration. The animal was manually restrained and the abdomen of each rat was manually palpated to remove any fecal matter. If deemed necessary, the rectum was lavaged with up to 2 ml of saline for enema followed by manual palpation of the abdomen to remove the fecal matter, if any. Novecrit was drawn into a syringe and an appropriately sized gavage needle with a rounded tip (ball) was attached to the syringe. A lubricant jelly was applied to the insertion device to aid with insertion; it was advanced approximately 1 cm into the lumen of the colon and the Novecrit instilled. The rat was then maintained in a head-down position for approximately 20-30 seconds to limit the expulsion of solution.Group 5 was dosed via nasal route. The animal was anesthetized (per SNBL USA SOP). The animal laid on its back with the head elevated. The dose was dispensed slowly into the nares. Approximately half the dose volume was administered to one nare. The remaining dose volume was administered to another nare. The first dose was administered onDay 1, and the last dose onDay 15. - The rats were clinically monitored including their food consumption and body weight.

(BMP7 variant A) a Group 1 animals at the end of the “Prevention” arm were randomized intoGroups 6 and 7 (n = 20 or 10 each, respectively) to define the “Treatment” arm. The remaining 6 animals fromGroup 1 were euthanized for kidney collection and blood draw at the end of the “Prevention” arm. - To study the effect of the RNAs on prevention of diabetic nephropathy, animals were delivered from the barrier (PCO-5638) to the vivarium (PCO-Rm C) and allowed 3 days for acclimation. All animals were placed on 5SCA diabetogenic diet for 3 weeks (weekly body weight measurements were taken). Animals were then returned to regular 5008 diet for the duration of the study (weekly body weight measurements were taken). After 2 weeks on 5008 diet, body weight measurement, blood draw (500 ul) and a 24 hour baseline urine collection (urinary albumin and creatinine measurements) were performed on all animals. 36 rats were randomized to
groups Groups Group 5 was administered Lisinopril admixed in the 5008 diet (food consumption will begin on this group of animals). Blood draws (500 ul, tail vein) were taken fromGroups FIG. 35 . As shown inFIG. 35 , treatment with RNA encoding BMP7 Variant A resulted in reduced levels of urine albumin in rats afflicted with diabetic nephropathy compared to the control, indicating superior kidney function in the treated animals compared to the control animals (placebo group). To terminate the study, all animals were euthanized with CO2 asphyxiation and a blood draw was performed via cardiac puncture to collect serum for BUN, creatinine and glucose, and plasma for compound exposure and biomarker analysis. Both kidneys were dissected and fixed for histology.FIG. 34 shows the serum level of BMP7 protein inGroups Group 4,Group 3>Group 2,Group 1. - A study was also conducted to analyze the effect of the RNAs encoding BMP7 variants on treating diabetic nephropathy. Specifically, the vehicle animals from Group 1 (Prevention arm, n=18) were randomized based on body weight, glucose and urine albumin (
Groups 6, n=20; 7, n=10;). Animals received either Vehicle or BMP7 variant-encoding RNAs (intradermal, 2×/week, Mon and Thur),groups FIG. 36 , treatment with RNA encoding BMP7 Variant A decreased urine albumin level in rats afflicted with diabetic nephropathy, indicating superior kidney function in the treated animals. This result suggested that BMP7 variant-encoding RNA effectively treated diabetic nephropathy and promoted superior kidney function compared to the control animals (placebo group). - An illustrative study protocol is provided below:
