Definitions
- the invention relates to the in vivo treatment of joint disease using gene therapy.
- in vivo administration of vectors encoding interleukin-1 receptor antagonists is disclosed.
- Joint disease is a severe mobility and career modifying disease in man and horses (Robert Davis, Horses give a leg up to human knee research, U.S.A. Today, April 6, 1999, at 10D).
- the etiopathogenesis of joint disease is not clearly understood, however, may mediators that lead to degeneration within the joint environment have been identified.
- Cytokines especially interleukin-1 and tumor necrosis factor, have been defined as initiating mediators of a degenerative cascade that propagates joint disease.
- anti-cytokine proteins it has been demonstrated that blocking these molecules can significantly alter the course of joint disease.
- Non- viral vectors typically refer to synthetic molecules that facilitate the uptake of DNA into cells by condensing the DNA with lipids, peptides, proteins, inactivated virus particles, crystals of calcium phosphate, or coated microprojectiles.
- Viral vectors are viruses from which the viral genes have been removed to allow insertion of the therapeutic gene(s), and the viral/vector has usually been rendered incapable of replicative spread. As a general rule viral vectors give much higher efficiencies of gene delivery than non-viral vectors. Many well characterized viruses have been explored for use as vectors, but to date retroviral and adenoviral vectors have proven the most useful. (Verma, J.M. and Somia, N., Nature 389: 239-242, 1997; Martin, P.A. and Thomas, S.M., Hum. Gene Ther., 9: 87-114, 1998; Robbins, P.D., et al., Trends Biotech., 16: 35-40, 1998).
- Retroviral vectors integrate their DNA (including a gene sequence of interest) into the chromosomal DNA of the target cells, ensuring gene transfer to the target cell progeny.
- retroviral vectors only transduce (infect) dividing cells, making them useful in certain situations but less useful in others. If for example the target population of cells were gastrointestinal epithelium which divide very rapidly, a retroviral vector could be quite useful in a gene transfer protocol.
- Adenoviral vectors can transduce non-dividing cells allowing them to be used on a larger range of cell types. If the goal of a protocol was to transduce slow or non-dividing cells, such as neurons, an adenoviral vector would be a superior choice. (Robbins, P.D., et al., Trends Biotech., 16: 35-40, 1998) In addition to work based on the engineering of equine gene vaccines, (Guo,

- Synovium was aseptically harvested from grossly normal metacarpophalangeal joints of 5 horses ranging in age from 10 - 15 years. During processing synovium was stored in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) at 4°C unless otherwise noted. Synovium was further divided into 3 mm 2 pieces and placed in supplemented Ham's F12 media with 0.2% collagenase and cultured for 4 hours in a 37°C, 5% CO 2 environment with gentle agitation.
- PBS phosphate buffered saline
- the appearance of the synovial fluid is noted by looking at the color and turbidity in a glass test tube. Color is rated as straw, yellow, orange, or red. Turbidity is qualitatively rated as clear, cloudy, or opaque. If iatrogenic blood contamination is observed, the sample is centrifuged for 10 minutes at 3000 rpm. This will separate the blood from the synovial fluid.
- the slides are labeled with a permanent marker: horse nu her, joint location, cytospin, and the date.
- the slide, cytospin funnel and the funnel holder are put together and 2-5 drops of hyaluronidase treated fluid is added to the funnel.
- the funnels are placed in the cytospin rotor and then the samples are spun for 4 minutes in the cytocentrifuge. Then slides are removed from the holders and are allowed to dry. A small circle of cells will be in the middle of the slide. When dry, the slides are stained with the dif-quick automatic stainer. Microscopic Cvtospin Slide Interpretation
- a 100 cell differential of neutrophils, large mononuclear cells, lymphocytes and eosinophils is performed determining a breakdown of these four types of cells. If there are not 100 cells to count, a percentage for each type ofcell counted is calculated based on the total number of cells counted.

- synovial fluid Several drops of synovial fluid are added to 20 ml of 5% acetic acid in a glass beaker. After 1 minute, the beaker is gently swished in a circular motion. The clump of synovial fluid can then he evaluated as good, fair or poor by dipping a wooden stir stick into the mixture and evaluating the clump by how well it holds together: Good - tight, ropy clump - holds together completely; Fair - partially breaks down at the edges; Poor - flakes and shreds - does not stay together.
- the adenoviral vector backbone used in this study were replication-deficient type 5 adenovirus lacking El and E3 loci. (Yeh, P. and Perricaudet, M., FASEB J, 11: 615-623, 1997). Construction of adenovirus vectors is well known in the art (see Hardy, S. et al., J. Virol. 71: 1842-1849, 1997). The coding region for equine IRAP (Howard, R.D., et al., Am. J. Vet.

- Neat media aliquots were used for determination of IRAP utilizing a commercially available kit and manufacture's recommendation (QuantikineTM Human IL-lra immunoassay, R & D Systems, Minneapolis, MN). Neat media aliquots were used for determination of PGE 2 utilizing a commercially available kit and manufacture's recommendation (TiterZyme® PGE 2 enzyme immunoassay kit, PerSeptive Biosystems, Inc., Framingham, MA).
- Two flasks of synoviocytes were transduced with the adLacZ vector at a multiplicity of infection (MOI) of 0, 1, 10 and 100 to determine transduction frequencies.
- MOI multiplicity of infection
- Two flasks of synoviocytes were infected with eq-adlRAP at 0, 1, 10, and 100 MOI to determine the concentration of ERAP produced. After transductions the cells were cultured for an additional 48 hours after which time the media was removed and stored (-80°C) and the cell numbers in each flask were estimated using a hemocytometer.
- the concentrations of ERAP in the media samples were normalized to 1 x 10 6 cells and a 48-hour culture period.
- Synoviocytes were either non-transduced or transduced (eq-adlRAP) at 10 MOI, cultured for 2 days, and then lOng of human recombinant II- l ⁇ (Life Technologies, Gaithersburg, MD, USA) was added to the media of some cells followed by an additional 2 days of culture. The media was collected and stored (- 80°C) for IRAP and PGE 2 determination as well as estimations of cell numbers in each flask.
- the diluent was chosen as the placebo to test the antigenicity of both the vector and proteins produced in association with its presence.
- Each viral dose (1 x 10 9 , 1 x 10 10 , 1 x 10", 2 x 10", and 5 x 10" particles/joint) was tested in two different horses.
- the transduced and placebo joints were aseptically prepared and arthrocentesis performed using a 12 mL syringe and a 20 ga x 1.5" (5.08 cm) needle.
- Approximately 4 mL of synovial fluid was collected for routine synovial fluid analysis (total protein, WBC counts, differential cell count, color estimation, and quality of mucin clot) and IRAP quantification.
- synovial fluid samples were split into tubes containing EDTA (routine synovial fluid analysis) or sodium citrate (IRAP determination). During the same procedure either the vector or placebo treatment was administered directly into the joint cavity. Arthrocenteses were repeated on days 3, 7 and at 7 day intervals thereafter until day 35 post transduction or until measured ERAP protein was similar to control levels.
- Modification and changes may be made in the sequence of the IRAP protein used in the present invention and the encoding nucleic acid sequences and still obtain a functional molecule that encodes a protein with desirable properties.
- the following is a discussion based upon changing the ammo acid sequence of a protein to create an equivalent, or possibly an improved, second-generation molecule.
- the amino acid changes may be achieved by changing the codons of the nucleic acid sequence, according to the codons given in Table 3.
- Certain amino acids may be substituted for other amino acids in a protein sequence without appreciable loss of enzymatic activity. It is thus contemplated that various changes may be made in the peptide sequences of the disclosed protein sequences, or their corresponding nucleic acid sequences without appreciable loss of the biological activity. In making such changes, the hydropathic index of amino acids may be considered.
- the importance of the hydropathic amino acid index in conferring interactive biological function on a protein is generally understood in the art (Kyte and Doolittle, J. Mol Biol., 157: 105-132, 1982). It is accepted that the relative hydropathic character of the amino acid contributes to the secondary structure of the resultant protein, which in turn defines the interaction of the protein with other molecules, for example, enzymes, substrates, receptors, DNA, antibodies, antigens, and the like.
- Each amino acid has been assigned a hydropathic index on the basis of their hydrophobicity and charge characteristics. These are: isoleucine (+4.5); valine (+4.2) leucine (+3.8); phenylalanine (+2.8); cysteine/cystine (+2.5); methionine (+1.9) alanine (+1.8); glycine (-0.4); threonine (-0.7); serine (-0.8); tryptophan (-0.9) tyrosine (-1-3); proline (-1-6); histidine (-3.2) glutamate/glutamine/aspartate/asparagine (-3.5); lysine (-3.9); and arginine (-4.5).
- amino acids may be substituted by other amino acids having a similar hydropathic index or score and still result in a protein with similar biological activity, i.e., still obtain a biologically functional protein.
- substitution of amino acids whose hydropathic indices are within ⁇ 2 is preferred, those within ⁇ 1 are more preferred, and those within ⁇ 0.5 are most preferred.
- hydrophilicity values have been assigned to amino acids: arginine/lysine (+3.0); aspartate/glutamate (+3.0 ⁇ 1); serine (+0.3); asparagine/glutamine (+0.2); glycine (0); threonine (-0.4); proline (-0.5 ⁇ 1); alanine/histidine (-0.5); cysteine (-1.0); methionine (-1.3); valine (-1.5); leucine/isoleucine (-1.8); tyrosine (-2.3); phenylalanine (-2.5); and tryptophan (-3.4).
- amino acid may be substituted by another amino acid having a similar hydrophilicity score and still result in a protein with similar biological activity, i.e., still obtain a biologically functional protein.
- substitution of amino acids whose hydropathic indices are within ⁇ 2 is preferred, those within ⁇ 1 are more preferred, and those within ⁇ 0.5 are most preferred.
- amino acid substitutions are therefore based on the relative similarity of the amino acid side-chain substituents, for example, their hydrophobicity, hydrophilicity, charge, size, and the like.
- substitutions which take various of the foregoing characteristics into consideration are well known to those of skill in the art and include: arginine and lysine; glutamate and aspartate; serine and threonine; glutamine and asparagine; and valine, leucine, and isoleucine. Changes which are not expected to be advantageous may also be used if these resulted in functional proteins.
- compositions and/or methods disclosed and claimed herein can be made and executed without undue experimentation in light of the present disclosure. While the compositions and methods of this invention have been described in terms of preferred embodiments, it will be apparent to those of skill in the art that variations may be applied to the compositions and/or methods and in the steps or in the sequence of steps of the methods described herein without departing from the concept, spirit and scope of the invention. More specifically, it will be apparent that certain agents which are both chemically and physiologically related may be substituted for the agents described herein while the same or similar results would be achieved. All such similar substitutes and modifications apparent to those skilled in the art are deemed to be within the spirit, scope and concept of the invention.
