We investigated a gene therapy for inherited corneal diseases, so-called corneal dystrophies, using a lentivirus vector. Lentivirus vector can transduce non-dividing cells in vitro and in vivo, and mediate efficient transfer and sustained long-term expression of the transgene in varieties of tissues. In this project, we obtained the following results.(1) We have developed an enhancer-promotor region that drives a cornea-specific expression of a gene of interest.(2) We have created knockout mice of macular corneal dystrophy using a targeted destruction of CHST6 gene.(3) We have developed a transplantation approach of corneal epithelial sheets transduced with a lentivirus vector.(4) We have shown that lentivirus vector can transduce ex vivo corneal endothelial cells. The results suggest promising clinical capabilities for ex vivo gene therapy for the treatment for corneal dystrophies with a lentivirus vector.

我们使用慢病毒载体研究了一种基因治疗，用于遗传性角膜疾病，即所谓的角膜营养不良。慢病毒载体可以在体外和体内转导非分散细胞，并介导组织中转基因的有效转移并持续长期表达。 （1）我们已经开发了一个增强子促进剂区域，该区域驱动了感兴趣的基因的角膜特异性表达。（2）我们使用chst6基因的有针对性的角膜营养不良的敲除小鼠的敲除小鼠。慢病毒载体可以转导离体角膜内皮细胞。结果表明，在体内基因治疗方面具有有希望的临床能力，用于用慢病毒载体治疗角膜营养不良。
