Abstract
The invention provides methods and compositions for gene therapy, including antisense therapy. In one embodiment, the compositions comprise hyaluronic acid to promote uptake of nucleic acid by the target cells. The invention is illustrated with reference to treatment of retinal diseases caused by neovascularisation.
Description
The present invention relates in the control of disease or treatment, use hyaluronic acid that active factors is led target gene to eliminate the target gene function.In one embodiment, the present invention relates to treat the method and composition that ophthalmic particularly relates to the retinal diseases of choroid and/or amphiblestroid neovascularization, it is to utilize the cytophagy feature of the specific cell in the eyes to provide a kind of effective method that active factors is transported to target cell, with short-term and the long-term treatment of carrying out neovascularization.Method and composition of the present invention can be used for DNA, RNA, antisense nucleotide, peptide or other therapeutic agent are transported to phagocyte or peripheral cell.
Background of invention
A) as the hyaluronic acid of adjuvant or directing agent
Hyaluronic acid (HA) finds in vivo that by reaching the big complex oligosaccharide that 5000 couples of alkaline disaccharide glucuronic acid-β (1-3) N-acetyl-glucosamine β (1-4) form it is the main component of extracellular matrix, and its tertiary structure is the random coil of the about 50nm of diameter.
HA has the ability in conjunction with big water gaging, and this makes it form the viscosity hydrated gel with viscoelasticity property in vivo.In the vitreous body of mammal eyes and extracellular matrix, all found this form.
Because HA has with the lead ability at disease or position, state place of active factors, so HA has been used for some disease and the state (International Patent Application WO 91/04058 and WO93/16733) of general and topical therapeutic human body.Shown HA for example at the carotid artery (with respect to unmarred offside tremulous pulse) of damage, and in the colorectum tumor of laboratory animal, formed storehouse (depot) and be retained in the skin of this animal.In all these situations, deposition site is high HA expression of receptor district, and the special tissue that is positioned to express these receptors of high level of prompting HA particularly just at the tissue of abnormality proliferation and migration, comprises and replys damage, inflammation, growth and tumorigenic tissue.
Is that it can be simultaneously in conjunction with other molecule and cell membrane to HA as the very important feature of the effect of potential adjuvant.Differentiate the cell surface receptor that is specific to HA, comprised some homologous protein in receptor (RHAMM), ISIS 2302 (ICAM) and the CD44 family of migration of histocompatibility antigen CD44, hyaluronic acid mediation.The virus that is promoted by HA will make the molten mechanism of born of the same parents of common virus picked-up more effective with combining of cell membrane.
B) ophthalmic
The feature of multiple ophthalmic such as macula degeneration and diabetic retinopathy all is choroid and/or amphiblestroid neovascularization, this process be suffer from main diseases that the patient of these diseases loses one's sight because of.
Treatment of the prior art
In relevant macula degeneration disease of age (ARMD), under the retina formation of neovascularization film (SRNVM) and hemorrhage cause central vision fast and most of forfeiture.Multiple therapy methods is arranged, but all be insecure.The photic coagulation of laser is the most acceptable therapy, but it still has following shortcoming, and promptly laser beam can cause fine and close permanent blind spot (Schachet, 1994; Ibanez etc., 1995 and Hudson etc., 1995), cause the temporary transient forfeiture of vision and can not prevent the development of the state of an illness because the new vessels film repeats to take place for a long time.
Therefore unique advantage of this therapy is to have prevented degree of depth visual loss.
Similarly, operation is removed under SRNVM or the retina blood or reorientated fovea centralis retinae by the rotation retina also is unsuccessful, because it exists the improvement of postoperative complication and vision very little or temporary.Therefore, these intrusion type therapies and corresponding complication head and shoulders above the benefit that obtains, thereby purposes is restricted.
Interferon-ALPHA 2a (Fung, 1991 have also been proved with some anti-angiogenesis activity; Guyer etc., 1992 and Engler etc., 1994) and to transplant the purposes of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cell (Algvere etc., 1994) very limited, and the initial result who organizes acquisition with the small-scale patient in fairly large test, be not confirmed.
Outside laser photocoagulation (as mentioned above, it has many shortcomings), the main method of another treatment diabetic retinopathy is blood sugar control and blood pressure.The effect of this therapy is subject to patient's motility and compliance.
Age surpasses among 75 years old the crowd about 30% and suffers from macula degeneration disease, and has 3 to suffer from diabetic retinopathy in 1000 individualities.Because along with aged tendency of population, these numerals will increase, and the occurrence probability of diabetes also will increase, so need a kind of more efficient methods to treat these and other ophthalmic diseases that is mediated by neovascularization.
Neovascularization mechanism
Vascular endothelial cell growth factor (VEGF) is a kind of glycoprotein of disulfide bridge connects of dimerization, and known its can synthesize justacrine by various normal cells and tumor cell.Nearest observation shows that VEGF detects (Malecaze etc. usually in the patient's who suffers from diabetes new vessels retina, 1994), and in the patient's who suffers from diabetic retinopathy or the locking of central retina vein eye liquid, detect (Aiello etc., 1994).Recent findings is induced vegf expression such as the central vein locking under the states such as retina shedding and intraocular tumour.In rabbit model, the level of VEGFmRNA after inducing the retinal vein locking, raise (Pe ' er etc., 1995) in the not enough district of amphiblestroid oxygen supply.The not enough vegf expression that stimulates of oxygen supply is also observed (Pierce etc., 1995 at other animal model; Miller etc., 1994), and in all types of cell cultures, also observe (Simorre-Pinatel etc., 1994; Hata etc., 1995 and Thiema etc., 1995).
C) antisense DNA in the disease treatment and gene therapy
Inhibition to the undesirable active proteic gene expression of coding mediation produces " antisense " DNA sequence and finishes in all cases by importing or original position in target cell.These antisense sequences are the DNA sequence that cause the antiparallel RNA of sequence of synthetic its sequence and encoding proteins when transcribing.In various viral diseases, tested this antisense sequences.In addition, antisense oligodeoxyribonucleotide can import target cell, and this short sequence itself is not transcribed, but suppresses that transcribing and/or translation subsequently of adopted DNA sequence should be arranged in the target cell mutually.
Think extensively still that up to date the required minmal sequence length of Antisense Suppression that realizes gene expression is 12-14 nucleotide (Wagner, 1994).Yet, now shown in conjunction with the specificity of target sequence can by use contain C-5 propine pyrimidine and thiophosphate internucleotide linkage modification oligonucleotide and effectively strengthen, and the inhibition that the sequence that is as short as 7 or 8 nucleotide also can provide effective genescreen, mispairing sensitivity, ribonuclease H to rely on, the flanking sequence of its RNA that hits is important (Wagner etc., 1996) for the decision specificity.
Yet, be subjected to the influence of following factor with the success that stops this application of expression of gene in the antisense nucleotide body, for example need special mutation inhibiting gene expression (Milan, 1993; McInnes andBascom, 1992) antisense nucleotide (Akhtar and Ivinson, 1993) that, perhaps needs high concentration.
At present, the treatment of this form much is the antisense sequences of application packages in liposome, perhaps directly Antisense cDNA or oligonucleotide is applied to disease location.Therefore not successful to the trial majority of the absorption of these sequences by antisense sequences being wrapped in the liposome to increase target cell, and the orientation of liposome is also very difficult, its absorption even also lower than virus.
Directed also can realize by for example utilizing Sendai virus to shift through virus-mediated DNA.Sendai virus is a kind of RNA viruses, has proved that it is (people such as Kaneda, 1987) more than 95% with DNA and protein delivery to the efficient in the cell.In this gene transfer system, the fusion activity by Sendai virus directly imports to the DNA nucleoprotein complex in liposome in the Cytoplasm, DNA can be imported nucleus fast with nucleoprotein.The gene transfer of Sendai virus mediation takes place by the fusion of virus with cell membrane, and walks around endocytic pathway.Recently, observe Sendai virus and can efficiently antisense or plasmid DNA be transported to target cell.Antisense and plasmid DNA are not only in culture but also all keep its activity (people such as Kaneda, 1987) in vivo.Yet the application of this virus is subjected to the restriction of this fact, does not promptly have suitable construct to can be used as carrier at present.In addition, the DNA of transfer only can express limited a period of time, because this gene transfer is by merging mediation.
Retrovirus retrovirus has been widely used in somatic tissue's gene therapy (Boris-Lawrie andTemin, 1993), and they can efficiently navigate to and infect the host cell of numerous species, and transgenic DNA is integrated into host genome.In theory, the integration of DNA will provide genetically modified permanent generation, and this can cause forever remedying of cell.But retrovirus retrovirus can not infect nondividing cell (Salmons and Gunzburg, 1993).In addition, counter-transcription-ing virus particle is unstable in vivo, and this makes and is difficult to reach high virus titer by inoculation.Moreover, the carcinogenecity of integrating virus also there is tangible worry.Retrovirus retrovirus can not infect not somatoblast and mean that they can not be as the candidate of the gene transfer of carrying out in eyes, because most important target cell such as light receptor and RPE cell all are somatoblasts not.
The application of herpes simplex virus vector is subjected to the restriction (people such as Culver, 1992) of its low efficiency of infection.Developed two types carrier, i.e. the amplicon of replication defect type recon and plasmid derivative, the latter needs helper virus.Although can overcome difficulties and remove virulent gene from herpes simplex virus, construct remains (people such as Johnson, 1992) of cellular toxicity.In addition, the long-term expression of insertion sequence remains unsuccessful at present, exists the regulation and control and the stability problem of construct.In gene therapy, the herpes simplex virus of modifying is applied to cause in the eyes very big worry, because their pathogenicity.The zoster herpesvirus infection can cause the ophthalmic severe infections, often causes losing one's sight, and needs corneal transplantation.
Adenovirus has been widely used in the gene transfer in the not somatoblast and proliferative cell.They can carry the DNA up to 7.5kb, and effective transfection and high virus titer can be provided.The major advantage of using these viruses rather than retrovirus retrovirus is that they can infect many target cells (Kozarsky and Wilson, 1993) of not dividing.Replication-defective adenoviral it is believed that it is comparatively safe, because these viruses are pathogen common among the mankind, causes that usually gentle relatively symptom is as flu.These carriers carry the oncogene with deletion mutation, have reduced the probability (Siegfried, 1993) that becomes carcinogenecity.In the first routine experimental gene therapy test, just be to use the recombinant adenovirus treatment to suffer from the patient of cystic fibrosis by the approval of U.S. National Institutes of Health recombinant DNA consultative committee.
Yet the major defect of adenovirus is their transient gene expression, and this is because due to transgenic is not incorporated in the cellular genome.In addition, only there is only a few that gene is delivered to the not successful trial of somatoblast.Reported in 1993 and use adenovirus for the first time gene successfully to be transferred to experiment in the brain of forming by somatoblast not people such as (, 1993) Le Gal La Salle.
These results show that gene therapy is a kind of approach for the treatment of disease in theory reliably, but need overcome the technical barrier of effective orientation and absorption, can utilize the virus that adheres to target cell and be absorbed to overcome these technical barriers.This process is not very effective, and uses the danger that virus may cause not wishing the medical condition that occurs.Yet announced that it is feasible that positive findings has been instructed with gene therapy adjusting biological process.
Therefore, need be used for the treatment of the improving one's methods of directed gene therapy of disease at present, and need suitable to contain hyaluronic compositions to be used for this treatment.
D) gene therapy and ocular disease
In Australian patent application 75168/94 (Hybridon Inc.), proved by with based on the insulation of 19 to the 21 aggressiveness antisense oligonucleotides of mice VEGF, can in COS-1 or NB41 cell, suppress the vivoexpression of Mus VEGF.Shown that a kind of 21 aggressiveness antisense nucleotide that navigate to the translation termination site are effective sequences.But do not disclose or the special any tissue that is directed in the eyes of prompting sequence, also do not have disclosure or prompting treatment any eye symptom except that diabetic retinopathy.
At United States Patent (USP) 5,324, in 654, a kind of method that stimulates the propagation of non-malignant cell is disclosed, this method comprise use corresponding to retinoblastoma (Rb) gene antisense nucleotide external treatment cell to suppress the expression of Rb gene outcome, cause cytostatic proteic expression to be suppressed.By this way, promoted cell proliferation.Can implant proliferating cells again if desired then, but and before implanting again pair cell carry out genetic engineering and operate to replace a kind of specific gene.Yet there is not document to point out that this antisense sequences can be used for treating ocular disease.The invention of US5324654 relates to foundation can long-term proliferating cells system and disease such as muscular dystrophy and the diabetes of treatment due to not expressed by gene.
Do not attempt as yet specific gene is directed to specific cell, and do not filter out the orientation of eye type.Expection is difficult to only to carry out special orientation with adenovirus because should virus can the many types of transfection cell.
For the treatment ocular disease, and other position great majority or all not infected in the body, hope be the target tissue that therapeutic agent optionally is delivered to ophthalmic.For antisense DNA, importantly this DNA should be able to be absorbed into these target cells.
Progress in the said gene treatment has caused transgenic is delivered to target cell and the further research of expression therein, as use recombinant adenovirus the beta galactosidase transgenic to be delivered into retina (Bennett as induction system, Deng the people, 1994, people such as Li, 1994 and people such as Mashmour, 1994).Retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) is the monolayer that ophthalmic one deck does not upgrade, and between neural retina and choroid, the RPE cell is engulfing a property neuroepithelial cell, and it has formed amphiblestroid outermost layer.For a long time with regard to the character of engulfing of known these cells, and existing summary (Bok and Young, 1979).Observing in growing animal had high-level transgene expression in 3 days in the RPE layer, high-level transgene expression is arranged in 2 weeks in the photoreceptor cells of neural retina.The expression of reporter gene is 9 weeks nearly.In than senior animal, retina down or intravitreal injection all can not induce the beta galactosidase transgenic in photoreceptor cells, to express people such as (, 1994) Li.
After Australian patent application 61444/94 was presented at and is injected into ante-chamber, vitreous body or spherical space, back, duplicate deficit type recombinant adenovirus was absorbed by the various tissues of ophthalmic, and the reporter gene beta galactosidase is expressed.Yet this document does not show whether the virus of this form successfully is incorporated into activating agent in target cell or the zone, and also disclosure or prompting VEGF not can be used for curing any eye symptom.
Using antisense nucleotide is that this nucleotide can not enter target cell as a special obstacle of eye treatment form success or not, and stable limited (Helene 1991) of phosphoric acid G 3139 for example of the oligonucleotide after modifying.These factors have greatly limited the success rate of the success rate, particularly long-term treatment of vivo gene treatment.In the treatment of retinal diseases, postpone the course of disease and make progress about 12 months ability and will greatly increase the value and the effective percentage of long-term treatment.
Observed with adenovirus as the transport vehicle of retina gene therapy with cytotoxicity, proved that this cytotoxicity is dose dependent (Mashmour, 1994), thereby drawn another difficulty of using this carrier.For the dosage that reduces given carrier but keep its transfer efficiency simultaneously, can use a kind of adjuvant, proved that adjuvant such as lipofectin reagent can increase the absorption of cell to the DNA of " exposing ".
Although HA is widely used as the substitute of vitreous body forfeiture in surgical procedures, we in the prior art and find no any prompting HA and can promote any medicament by any cell or tissue absorption in the eyes.Similarly, although in the Australian patent application 52274/93 of Norpharmco, pointed out HA can promote penetrating of medicament such as antibiotic or anticarcinogen, but this document does not point out HA can promote the absorption of which kind of cell to which kind of medicament, and saying nothing of has absorption to DNA or virus.Particularly this document is not instructed by intraocular injection and is used HA.
We have now found that engulfing character and increasing the molecule that is expelled in the body behind the vitreous body space such as the absorption of oligonucleotide and virus of RPE cell.These RPE cells demonstrate the absorption that increase is arranged than other cell type.Our discovery makes it possible to induce in retina or chorioidal epithelium cell the long-term and short-term of VEGF to express, and therefore can suppress the growth of amphiblestroid neovascularization or SRNVM.
Summary of the invention
According to an aspect of the present invention, the invention provides a kind of compositions, it comprises a kind of nucleic acid and a kind of hyaluronic acid or derivatives thereof, and a kind of materia medica acceptable carrier.

Still not knowing fluorescence is to discharge by total length CATSC or by the oligonucleotide of degrading.With Gene Scan proof fluorescence major part is that it is positioned at the position similar to CATSCF by due to the 19 aggressiveness oligonucleotide.Use similar program, observe that the CATSC oligonucleotide remains complete after cultivating 7 days.
With 1 nanomole CATSFC be injected into 6 age in week non-pigment RCS-rdy+ rat vitreous humor in, and, also injected 1 nanomole fluorescein in contrast with the migration of confocal fluorescence microscopy art tracking oligonucleotide.Inject back 2 hours, 3 days and 7,14 and 56 angel's animal euthanasias, take out the eye after the injection after the euthanasia, lyophilizing, section also are used for the confocal microscope art immediately without fixing.
In ganglion cell layer, observe penetrating of oligonucleotide after intravitreal injection CATSFC2 hour, in the time of 3 days, also observe penetrating of oligonucleotide at light receptor and pigment epithelium layer.Yet injected back 7 days, only the RPE layer has the CATSCF of significant quantity.At 14,28 and 56 days, still keep fluorescence signal at the RPE layer, in all other cell types, do not observe signal.These results demonstrate most of CATSCF and are absorbed by engulfing property RPE cell.
As mentioned above behind the intravitreal injection, dissect eyes, take out retina and also extract DNA, the DNA of purification is carried out GENE Scan analyze.As shown in Figure 1a, prove in 7,14,28 and 56 days the rat retina that after injection undegradable fluorescein-labeled oligonucleotide is arranged.Obviously disappear at 56 days signal intensitys.
Carry out the confocal microscope analysis after being expelled to the single agent of 10nmolCATSCF in the non-pigmented RCS-rdy+ rat.Check retina after the injection at certain intervals, the results are shown in Fig. 1 b, wherein g represents ganglion cell layer, and i represents inner nuclear layer, and o represents outer nuclear layer, and r represents layer of retina,pigment epithelium.Band illustrates 2 hours (B), 3 days (A) behind the injection 10nmol CATSCF, 7 days (C), 28 days (D) and 56 days (E) among the figure, and the retina of injecting 3 days (F) behind in contrast the FITC.
After these results showed intravitreal injection, oligonucleotide accumulated in the RPE cell.Oligonucleotide exists in the RPE layer and reaches 56 days, and remains the biologic activity form during this period.
The biologic activity of embodiment 3 antisense oligonucleotides
60 age in days non-pigment RCS-rdy
+Rat derives from our breeding.Before experiment animal is placed illumination/12 hour dark light circulation in 12 hours, average illuminance is 5lux, at least 10 days.
By peritoneal injection sodium pentobarbital (50mg/kg body weight) anesthetized animal.Use the 32gauge syringe needle to carry out intravitreal injection by pars plana.Left eye in contrast, right eye contains the saline injection of 6.6,66 or 132 μ g CATSC with 3 μ l150mM sodium chloride (saline) or 3 μ l, and (CATSC is the early stage antisense oligonucleotide (Rakoczy etc. that describe, 1994)), or with containing the complementary 3 μ l saline injections that MODN S1 is arranged of 60 μ g and CATSC100%.The animal of injection is recovered from anesthesia, and 1 week put to death with excessive pentobarbital sodium after injection, and was used for morphological examination.One day same time, promptly after the sunrise about 4 hours, in half an hour, kill all animals.Each dosage uses 2-3 animal.
Take out full eye and be immersed in 0.125M cacodylic acid sodium buffer, in 2.5% glutaraldehyde and 1% paraformaldehyde among the pH7.35.With cornea with crystalline lens is peeled off and eyecup is pruned with orientation.Be organized in 4 ℃ and fixedly spend the night, in 1% Osmic acid., after room temperature is carried out, fix 1 hour then.After the ethanol dehydration with organization embedding in epoxy resin.Preparation is used for the retina section (Kennedyt, 1994) of transmission electron microscope observation as previously mentioned.
Obtain histological data by optical microscope.Be cut into half thin 1 μ m section and use Toluidine blue staining with the LKB2088Ultratome that has diamond cutter (LKB-Produkter, Sweden).Measure with saline, low dosage CATSC (6.6 μ g), median dose CATSC (66 μ g) or high dose CATSC (132 μ g) and 66 μ gSl the phagosome number that accumulates in the RPE cell of every kind of sample that MODN injects is arranged.Obtain 5 cover counting and basis of calculation deviations under 40 times of amplifications from every eye, every cover counting is by becoming from the total phagosome array among the long RPE of 250 μ m in 6 different random choose zones.Analyzed contrast eye, low, in and the phagosome number that accumulates among the RPE of high dose CATSC and with pictorial representation.According to SAS
RThe general linear model program of (the 6th edition) statistics software kit (SAS institute company, the U.S.) compares with variation analysis.
The result shows that we have successfully tested antisense oligonucleotide (CATSC) in the rat of two strain systems.The number of the phagosome sample inclusion body that exists in contrast Long-Evans and RCS rdy+ rat is obviously not different, is respectively 35.8+11.6 and 47.29+14.8 (meansigma methods ± standard deviation).The intravitreal injection right and wrong are traumatic.The optical microscope of the eyes retina of saline injection detected show not infringement of ectoretina, and when with contrast the animal of injection is not compared the time, the number of the phagosome sample inclusion body in the RPE layer is increase not.Use Long-Evans rat is identified the biology of inducing in the RPE layer and changes required CATSC minimum flow.In contrast eye and the eye with low dosage (6.6 μ g) CATSC injection, the number of the phagosome sample inclusion body in the RPE cell is respectively 35.8+11.6 and 35.0+7.4.In the animal with higher dosage (66 μ g and 132 μ g) injection, the number of phagosome sample inclusion body is respectively 96.2+13.6 and 141.0+34.7, and when comparing with low-dosage sample with control sample, difference is tangible (Fig. 2) on the statistics.
Comparing also to demonstrate on the statistics with phagosome sample inclusion body number 204.20+39.3 in the RCS-rdy+ rat of 66 μ g CATSC injection and 47.20+14.8 in the contrast significantly increases.On the contrary, with 66 μ g have MODN (S1) injection not have increase be present in the RPE layer phagosome number (34.4+12.54) (Fig. 3).
The inclusion body of finding in the RPE of the Long-Evans of CATSC injection and RCS-rdy+ animal is spherical in shape, and can clearly make a distinction with the very dark little oval black particle that is present in the Long Evans rat.When having 66 μ g CATSC, the tip of outer layer segment demonstrates the sign of destructing, and has some vesicles in outer nuclear layer, does not observe but these change in the animal that S1 has MODN to inject.
Electron micrograph to the RPE layer of the eye of CATSC injection shows on the RPE morphocytology not have significant change.Because the area differentiation melanin granule diminishes and shoals, individual mitochondrion profile diminishes in the treatment group, but the mitochondrion number for the treatment of animal is more than not treating animal.Electron micrograph confirms the not structure and the phagosome similar of digesting material.Many phagosomes seen in the RPE layer of the rat of handling with CATSC are chondromitiome (paranuclear), and mainly contain fine and close immobilized artificial membrane, represent the outer layer segment (POS) of indigested light receptor and confirm that they derive from light receptor.In the POS layer, do not observe other morphological change, except the destructing performance is arranged in the outer rim of handling animal.
Detected character and the kinetics of using the gene transfer of adenovirus vector, also studied the effect of adjuvant for the absorption of adenovirus.
People RPE culture (HRPE7) derives from 7 years old Caucasia white man's donor and is prepared as described in (1992) such as Rakoczy.Adding 10%FBS (Multiser
TM, Trace Biosciences) and Eagles minimal medium (MEM, Multicel
TMTrace Biosciences, Australia) cultivate in, the people F2000 fibroblast of gathering in the crops and concentrate, wherein every 100ml culture medium contains 125 μ l gentamycins (Delta West, Bentley, Australia).The packed cells suspension of 1ml equal portions is added in each hole of 24 orifice plates, to guarantee the equivalent inoculation in each hole.Experimentize with the cell that is paved with, and obtain at least two cover panel datas of each experimental point.
