项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Chronic wounds and ulcers are increasing with the growing incidence of diabetes and associated illnesses and have annual costs exceeding $20 billion. These non-healing wounds result in chronic disease, limb amputations and death and are complicated by antibiotic resistant bacteria infection. This proposal seeks to improve and develop new capabilities of a biological treatment of such wounds, maggot debridement therapy (MDT) that is effective but underutilized. Some maggot species have evolved to digest fluids, dead tissues and bacteria in wounds and have been recognized for over 200 years for this improved wound healing behavior. For approximately a century, Lucilia sericata maggots have been produced for MDT. This proposal seeks to create transgenic flies with properties that will support increased use of MDT. The goals of the proposal are 1) to produce flightless flies with limited dispersal capability, 2) to engineer fluorescent flies that are more readily observed in wounds, 3) to engineer flies that facilitate analgesic and therapeutic peptide expression to improve patient comfort and wound healing. These mutants will facilitate fly production and also impede genetically engineered insect escape. The objectives of this proposal will support greater use of MDT thereby reducing treatment costs, improving wound healing and limiting the persistent use of antibiotics for treating chronic wounds.

描述（由申请人提供）：慢性伤口和溃疡随着糖尿病和相关疾病发病率的增加而增加，每年的费用超过200亿美元。这些不愈合的伤口会导致慢性疾病、截肢和死亡，并因抗生素耐药性细菌感染而复杂化。该提案旨在改善和开发此类伤口生物治疗的新能力，即有效但未充分利用的蛆虫清创疗法（MDT）。一些蛆物种已经进化到消化伤口中的液体，死亡组织和细菌，并且已经被认为是200多年来改善伤口愈合的行为。大约世纪以来，丝光绿蝇蛆一直用于MDT。该提案旨在创造具有支持增加使用MDT的特性的转基因果蝇。该提案的目标是1）生产具有有限传播能力的不会飞的苍蝇，2）工程化更容易在伤口中观察到的荧光苍蝇，3）工程化促进镇痛和治疗肽表达的苍蝇，以改善患者舒适度和伤口愈合。这些突变体将促进苍蝇的生产，也阻止基因工程昆虫逃跑。该提案的目的是支持更多地使用MDT，从而降低治疗成本，改善伤口愈合，并限制抗生素治疗慢性伤口的持续使用。
