Tyrosine-Mutant AAV8 Vector Mediated Efficient and Safe Gene Transfer of Pigment Epithelium-Derived Factor to Mouse Lungs.
Background/aims: Recombinant adeno-associated viruses (rAAV) are an important tool for lung targeted gene therapy. Substitution of tyrosine with phenylalanine residues (Y-F) in the capsid have been shown to protect the AAV vector from ubiquitin/proteasome degradation, increasing transduction efficiency. We tested the mutant Y733F-AAV8 vector for mucus diffusion, as well as the safety and efficacy of pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) gene transfer to the lung.
Methods: For this purpose, Y733F-AAV8-PEDF (1010 viral genome) was administered intratracheally to C57BL/6 mice. Lung mechanics, morphometry, and inflammation were evaluated 7, 14, 21, and 28 days after injection.
Results: The tyrosine-mutant AAV8 vector was efficient at penetrating mucus in ex vivo assays and at transferring the gene to lung cells after in vivo instillation. Increased levels of transgene mRNA were observed 28 days after vector administration. Overexpression of PEDF did not affect in vivo lung parameters.
Conclusion: These findings provide a basis for further development of Y733F-AAV8-based gene therapies for safe and effective delivery of PEDF, which has anti-angiogenic, anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic activities and might be a promising therapy for lung inflammatory disorders.
