项目摘要

PROJECT SUMMARY Combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) is highly effective, but it is weakened in the central nervous system (CNS) due to poor drug penetration. In addition, cells infected by HIV in the CNS - termed “CNS reservoirs” - are mainly constituted by myeloid lineage cells, such as microglia cells and macrophages, thus anti- HIV strategies employed are needed to be adapted to these cell types. Various approaches have been applied for controlling viral load in the CNS - for example, T cells expressing anti-HIV chimeric antigen receptor (CAR- T) or broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAb) – and these approaches effectively target HIV or HIV-infected cells systemically but are ineffective against the CNS reservoirs since cytotoxic-T cells cannot attack myeloid-lineage cells well and antibody penetration into the CNS is extremely low. As such, there is no practical approach successful enough to eliminate these reservoirs safely. We here intend to purge the CNS reservoirs via using genetically modified macrophages expressing anti- HIV CARs (CAR-M) (Aim 1) and multidirectional bNAb (bNAb-M) (Aim 2). Both will be expressed in freshly isolated monocytes from blood sources as a carrier vehicle to the CNS and an effector cell. Importantly, monocytes will be recruited to the CNS when neuroinflammation occurs; HIV infection itself as well as some antiretroviral drugs such as Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) or nevirapine (NVP), are known mediators of neuronal inflammation. To overcome the issue of HIV quasispecies, we will use each tool to target several different epitopes, i.e., express 2 or more anti-HIV CARs in the same cells (Aim 1) or multidirectional bNAbs in one molecule which target 3 independent epitopes on the HIV envelope protein (Aim 2). In addition, to protect the gene-modified monocytes, we will simultaneously express two anti-HIV genes with these immunotherapeutic tools; a) C46 that interferes fusion between HIV envelope and cellular membranes, thus blocking HIV infections and b) shRNA against HIV LTR (sh516) that destructs all HIV transcripts including the sequence derived from HIV LTR. Altogether, our approach will ensure CNS delivery of monocytes following gene modification to express multiple anti-HIV CARs or multidirectional bNAbs whilst protecting from HIV infections and/or productions. The monocytes will then differentiate into macrophages in the CNS and attack the infected cells via anti-HIV CAR (CAR-M) or secreting multidirectional bNAbs (bNAb-M) inducing antibody-dependent cytotoxicity or phagocytosis (ADCC/ADCP) against the infected cells. In case of the bNAb-M approach, secreted bNAbs will also work on adjacent myeloid cells which support both ADCC/ADCP. In addition, the bNAbs will neutralize new HIV infection. As such, our approach is highly unique, and, if successful, will open a new avenue to defeat HIV reservoirs in the CNS.
项目摘要 联合抗逆转录病毒疗法(cART)是非常有效的,但它在中枢神经系统中被削弱。 中枢神经系统(CNS)由于药物渗透不良。此外,中枢神经系统(称为“中枢神经系统”)中被艾滋病毒感染的细胞 储库”-主要由髓系细胞构成,如小胶质细胞和巨噬细胞,因此抗- 所采用的艾滋病毒策略需要适应这些细胞类型。已经采用了各种方法 用于控制CNS中的病毒载量-例如,表达抗HIV嵌合抗原受体(CAR-1)的T细胞 T)或广泛中和抗体(bNAb)--这些方法有效地靶向HIV或HIV感染的细胞 但对CNS储库无效,因为细胞毒性T细胞不能攻击骨髓谱系 细胞良好,并且抗体渗透到CNS中非常低。因此,没有切实可行的办法 成功地消除了这些水库安全。 我们在这里打算通过使用基因修饰的巨噬细胞表达抗- HIV汽车(CAR-M)(目标1)和多向bNAb(bNAb-M)(目标2)。两者都将在新鲜的 从血液来源分离的单核细胞作为CNS和效应细胞的载体媒介物。重要的是, 当神经炎症发生时,单核细胞将被募集到CNS; HIV感染本身以及一些 抗逆转录病毒药物如富马酸替诺福韦酯(TDF)或奈韦拉平(NVP)是已知的抗逆转录病毒药物的介导剂。 神经元炎症为了克服艾滋病准种的问题,我们将使用每种工具来针对几个 不同的表位,即,在相同细胞中表达2种或更多种抗HIV汽车(Aim 1)或在相同细胞中表达多方向bNAb(Aim 1)。 一种分子靶向HIV包膜蛋白上的3个独立表位(Aim 2)。此外,为了保护 基因修饰的单核细胞,我们将同时表达两个抗HIV基因与这些免疫球蛋白 a)干扰HIV包膜和细胞膜之间的融合,从而阻断HIV感染的C46 和B)针对HIV LTR(sh 516)的shRNA,其破坏所有HIV转录物,包括来源于 HIV LTR。总而言之,我们的方法将确保在基因修饰以表达 多种抗HIV汽车或多向bNAb,同时保护免受HIV感染和/或产生。的 然后单核细胞将在CNS中分化为巨噬细胞,并通过抗HIV CAR攻击感染细胞 (CAR-M)或分泌诱导抗体依赖性细胞毒性的多向bNAb(bNAb-M),或 吞噬作用(ADCC/ADCP)。在bNAb-M方法的情况下,分泌的bNAb将 也作用于支持ADCC/ADCP的相邻骨髓细胞。此外,bNAb将中和新的 艾滋病毒感染。因此,我们的方法非常独特,如果成功,将开辟一条战胜艾滋病毒的新途径 中枢神经系统中的储库。
