Abstract
Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) have shown potential in the treatment of a myriad of diseases; however, infusion of cells alone is unlikely to provide the full range of potential therapeutic applications. Transient genetic manipulation of ASCs could increase their repair and regeneration characteristics in a disease-specific context, essentially transforming them into drug-eluting depots. The goal of this study was to determine the optimal parameters necessary to transduce ASCs with recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV), an approved gene therapy vector that has never been associated with disease. Transduction and duration of gene expression of the most common recombinant AAV vectors were tested in this study. Among all tested serotypes, rAAV5 resulted in both the highest and longest term expression. Furthermore, we determined the glycosylation profile of ASCs before and after neuraminidase treatment and demonstrate that rAAV5 transduction requires plasma membrane-associated sialic acid. Future studies will focus on the optimization of gene delivery to ASCs, using rAAV5 as the vector of choice, to drive biological drug delivery, engraftment, and disease correction.
期刊介绍:
Human Gene Therapy is the premier, multidisciplinary journal covering all aspects of gene therapy. The Journal publishes in-depth coverage of DNA, RNA, and cell therapies by delivering the latest breakthroughs in research and technologies. Human Gene Therapy provides a central forum for scientific and clinical information, including ethical, legal, regulatory, social, and commercial issues, which enables the advancement and progress of therapeutic procedures leading to improved patient outcomes, and ultimately, to curing diseases.
The Journal is divided into three parts. Human Gene Therapy, the flagship, is published 12 times per year. HGT Methods, a bimonthly journal, focuses on the applications of gene therapy to product testing and development. HGT Clinical Development, a quarterly journal, serves as a venue for publishing data relevant to the regulatory review and commercial development of cell and gene therapy products.
