项目摘要
DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Post-Herpetic Neuralgia (PHN) is a common and exceedingly painful complication of herpes zoster that is debilitating, intractable, long-lasting and difficult to treat. PHN increases dramatically with age, and is thus a disease of the elderly which may profoundly reduce the quality of life. Given the aging nature of our society, PHN will become an even more pressing public health concern. Zoster and PHN occur when the human herpesvirus, varicella-zoster virus (VZV), reactivates from a latent state that was established in the host sensory neurons during chickenpox. While viral replication induces nerve damage and inflammation to initiate pain, the mechanisms by which VZV causes persistent pain are not well understood. This project is directed to FOA PA-07-282, and will center on a new clinically relevant model of VZV-induced pain in which prolonged hyperalgesia and allodynia occur following injection of human VZV into the rat hindpaw. The overlying hypothesis of this proposal is that by using this new rat model we will be able to better comprehend how VZV interacts with the primary afferent system to induce pain and test novel gene therapy approaches to treat VZV induced pain. In Specific Aim 1, we will examine the biology of VZV infection in the rat by characterizing viral and pain marker protein expression in the dorsal root ganglion (DRG) sensory neurons before, during and after VZV-induced nociception, using a comprehensive panel of antibodies. We will determine which VZV proteins are expressed in the DRG at each stage and address if viral gene expression patterns correlate with the pain response and recovery from it. We will also identify types of neurons expressing VZV antigens and determine if they display an upregulation of markers of neuropathic and/or inflammatory pain at both the DRG and the spinal cord. This work will establish the underlying VZV biology in the model and whether the pain response is a result of an infectious process with similarities to human VZV lytic infections or to VZV latency. In Specific aim 2, we will ask what specific VZV proteins are necessary to induce pain by testing the ability of: 1) various mutant VZV recombinants, each altered in a specific regulatory viral gene, and 2) various HSV vectors, each constructed to express a single VZV regulatory gene, to induce nociception. This may identify specific VZV proteins for further targeting in developing anti-pain strategies, and may lead to improved vaccines without the ability to induce PHN. The third specific aim will explore new avenues of treatment by testing the hypothesis that HSV vector-mediated delivery of modulators of pain can reduce the allodyna and hyperalgesia induced by VZV. We will investigate the use of HSV vectors expressing pro-enkephalin, GAD, the glycine receptor, and anti inflammatory proteins to treat VZV-induced hypersensitivity in the model, all of which have been shown to reduce pain in other systems. Together, exploration of this model may lead to an understanding of cellular changes that may underlie the generation of pain by VZV that will not only add to knowledge of pathogen:host interactions in VZV infection, but may help in developing new molecular targets for therapeutic intervention. This project studies a new model of pain induced by the herpesvirus varicella zoster virus that is reflective of a common and highly debilitating human disease of the elderly, post herpetic neuralgia (PHN). The examination of the model may identify new targets for the development of anti-pain strategies, and may lead to the identification of improved vaccine candidates that are unable to induce pain. The project may also identify new methods to alleviate PHN using gene therapy approaches.
描述(由申请人提供):带状疱疹后神经痛(PHN)是带状疱疹的一种常见且非常痛苦的并发症,其使人虚弱、顽固、持久且难以治疗。PHN随着年龄的增长而急剧增加,因此是一种老年人疾病,可能严重降低生活质量。鉴于我们社会的老龄化性质,PHN将成为一个更加紧迫的公共卫生问题。当人类疱疹病毒(水痘带状疱疹病毒(VZV))从水痘期间在宿主感觉神经元中建立的潜伏状态重新激活时,就会发生带状疱疹和PHN。虽然病毒复制诱导神经损伤和炎症以引发疼痛,但VZV引起持续性疼痛的机制尚不清楚。该项目针对FOA PA-07-282,并将集中于VZV诱导疼痛的新临床相关模型,其中在将人VZV注射到大鼠后爪后发生延长的痛觉过敏和异常性疼痛。该提议的叠加假设是,通过使用这种新的大鼠模型,我们将能够更好地理解VZV如何与初级传入系统相互作用以诱导疼痛,并测试新的基因治疗方法来治疗VZV诱导的疼痛。在具体目标1中,我们将使用一组全面的抗体,通过表征VZV诱导的伤害感受之前、期间和之后背根神经节(DRG)感觉神经元中的病毒和疼痛标志物蛋白表达,来研究大鼠中VZV感染的生物学。我们将确定哪些VZV蛋白在每个阶段的DRG中表达,并解决病毒基因表达模式是否与疼痛反应和恢复相关。我们还将确定表达VZV抗原的神经元类型,并确定它们是否在DRG和脊髓中显示神经性和/或炎性疼痛标记物的上调。这项工作将建立基础VZV的生物学模型,以及疼痛反应是否是一个感染过程的结果,与人类VZV裂解感染或VZV潜伏期相似。在具体目标2中,我们将通过测试以下各项的能力来询问诱导疼痛所必需的特定VZV蛋白:1)各种突变VZV重组体,每种突变VZV重组体在特定调节病毒基因中改变,和2)各种HSV载体,每种HSV载体构建成表达单个VZV调节基因,以诱导伤害感受。这可能会确定特定的VZV蛋白,以进一步靶向开发抗疼痛策略,并可能导致改进的疫苗没有能力诱导PHN。第三个具体目标将通过测试HSV载体介导的疼痛调节剂的递送可以减少VZV诱导的异常性疼痛和痛觉过敏的假设来探索新的治疗途径。我们将研究使用表达脑啡肽原、GAD、甘氨酸受体和抗炎蛋白的HSV载体来治疗模型中VZV诱导的超敏反应,所有这些都已被证明可以减轻其他系统的疼痛。总之,探索这个模型可能会导致理解细胞的变化,可能是VZV产生疼痛的基础,这不仅会增加VZV感染中病原体与宿主相互作用的知识,而且可能有助于开发新的分子靶点进行治疗干预。该项目研究了由疱疹病毒水痘带状疱疹病毒引起的疼痛的新模型,该模型反映了老年人的一种常见且高度衰弱的人类疾病,疱疹后神经痛(PHN)。该模型的检查可能会确定新的目标,用于开发抗疼痛策略,并可能导致识别无法诱导疼痛的改进的候选疫苗。该项目还可能确定使用基因治疗方法缓解PHN的新方法。
