项目摘要

ABSTRACT The estimated average industry cost per new prescription drug approval currently now exceeds $2.5 billion. One of the critical factors contributing to the rising costs of drug development is a non-optimal focus of pre- clinical studies for detecting potential cardiac liabilities of novel drug candidates. Recognizing this fact, the biomedical community has recently proposed a new paradigm for cardiac safety studies: the Comprehensive in vitro Proarrhythmia Assay (CiPA) initiative. It includes a shift from over-simplified hERG-focused cardiotoxicity screening to evaluation of drug effects on multiple ion channels contributing to action potential in human stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (CMs). Optical cell-based drug screening assays that monitor the dynamics of intracellular calcium concentrations and the cell membrane potential in stem cell-derived CMs are well-suited for detecting drug candidates with cardiac liabilities. Since drug-induced effects are often dependent on the activation state of cells, it is crucial to be able to stimulate CMs during drug screening. We propose to address this need by offering a revolutionary nanotechnology-based platform for non-invasive optical stimulation of CMs. We designed this optoelectronic platform by taking advantage of the unique properties of graphene, a “wonder material of the 21th century”. These properties ensure excellent biocompatibility of graphene-coated substrates, the ability to efficiently convert light into electricity, and compatibility with optical detection methods. Our preliminary results demonstrate that light can induce fast and reversible changes in contractile and electrical activity of stem cell-derived CMs cultured on graphene-coated substrates. Furthermore, we confirmed that optical stimulation via G-coated substrates can enable all-optical evaluation of use-dependent drug effects on the CM activity. To streamline the customer adoption of our graphene-based optical stimulation platform and incorporation it in into optical drug-screening assays, we are proposing to perform the following activities: a) developing a procedure for graphene deposition into cell culture multi-well plates, following by manufacturing of high-quality graphene-coated plates; b) optimizing the various parameters of voltage and calcium all-optical assays (including a dual-light stimulation protocol) on a customized microscopy system; c) transferring optimized all-optical assays to well-regarded high-through and high-content imaging instruments and performing screening of multiple benchmark compounds on optically stimulated CMs. We expect that optical stimulation of CMs via graphene- based substrates will dramatically increase the predictive value of cardiotoxicity screening assays. The proposed all-optical assays will be instrumental in correctly detecting genuine pro-arrhythmia risks early in the drug discovery process, thus reducing the spending and drug development time.

摘要目前，每批准一种新处方药的估计平均行业成本超过25亿美元。导致药物开发成本上升的关键因素之一是预处理的非最佳焦点，用于检测新药候选物的潜在心脏负担的临床研究。认识到这一事实，生物医学界最近提出了一种新的心脏安全性研究范式：体外促心律失常试验（CiPA）倡议。它包括从过度简化的hERG聚焦心脏毒性的转变筛选评价药物对人干细胞动作电位多个离子通道的作用细胞衍生的心肌细胞（CM）。基于光学细胞的药物筛选测定，干细胞来源的CM中的细胞内钙浓度和细胞膜电位非常适合于检测有心脏负担的候选药物由于药物诱导的作用往往取决于细胞的活化状态，在药物筛选期间能够刺激CM是至关重要的。我们建议通过提供一个革命性的基于纳米技术的非侵入性平台来满足这一需求。 CM的光学刺激。我们设计了这个光电平台，利用独特的石墨烯是“21世纪世纪的神奇材料”。这些特性确保了卓越的石墨烯涂覆的基底的生物相容性，有效地将光转化为电的能力，以及与光学检测方法兼容。我们的初步结果表明，光可以诱导快速，在石墨烯涂覆的纳米颗粒上培养的干细胞衍生的CM的收缩和电活动的可逆变化印刷受体.此外，我们证实，通过G-涂层基板的光学刺激可以实现全光学评价使用依赖性药物对CM活性的影响。为了简化客户对我们的石墨烯基光学刺激平台的采用，并将其纳入在光学药物筛选分析中，我们建议进行以下活动：a）开发一种将石墨烯沉积到细胞培养多孔板中的程序，随后制造高质量的 B）优化电压和钙全光学测定的各种参数（包括双光刺激方案）; c）转移优化的全光学测定到广受好评的高透过率和高内涵的成像仪器，并进行筛选的多种光刺激CM上的基准化合物。我们希望通过石墨烯对CM进行光学刺激- 的底物将显著增加心脏毒性筛选测定的预测值。拟议全光学分析将有助于在药物早期正确检测真正的促心律失常风险发现过程，从而减少开支和药物开发时间。
