    The world-first success of lipid nanoparticle (LNP)-based siRNA therapeutics (ONPATTRO®) promises to accelerate developments in siRNA therapeutics/gene therapy using LNP-type drug delivery systems (DDS). In this study, we explore the optimal composition of an LNP containing a self-degradable material (ssPalmO-Phe) for the delivery of oligonucleotides. siRNA or antisense oligonucleotides (ASO) were encapsulated in LNP with different lipid compositions. The hepatic knockdown efficiency of the target genes and liver toxicity were evaluated. The optimal compositions for the siRNA were different from those for ASO, and different from those for mRNA that were reported in a previous study. Extracellular stability, endosomal escape and cellular uptake appear to be the key processes for the successful delivery of mRNA, siRNA and ASO, respectively. Moreover, the compositions of the LNPs likely contribute to their toxicity. The lipid composition of the LNP needs to be optimized depending on the type of nucleic acids under consideration if the applications of LNPs are to be further expanded.

    The sentinel lymph node (LN) is the first LN to which lymph fluid flows from tumor tissue. We identified the key parameters of liposomes (LPs) that affect their accumulation in regional (primary) LNs with minimum leakage to its connecting (secondary) LNs by a comprehensive analysis of the LN-to-LN trafficking of LPs with various surface charges and various sizes. We used a lymphatic flow-modified (LFM) mouse that allows for the chronological analysis of inguinal (primary) LN-to-axillary (secondary) LN at the body surface. As a result, the anionic medium-sized LPs (130 nm on average) exhibited the highest accumulation in the primary LNs. A mechanism-based analysis revealed that CD169-positive macrophages in LNs were the dominant cell population that captures anionic LPs. Sentinel LN imaging was also performed by the intratumoral injection of fluorescent medium-sized anionic LPs using a breast cancer orthotopic model. In comparison with the typically used contrast agent indocyanine green, the anionic LPs were detected in sentinel LNs with a high sensitivity. Additionally, the co-injection of hyaluronidase significantly improved the sensitivity of detection of the fluorescent LPs in sentinel LNs. In conclusion, medium-sized anionic LPs combined with hyaluronidase represents a potent strategy for investigating sentinel LNs.

    Messenger RNA and small interfering RNA are attractive modalities for curing diseases by complementation or knock-down of proteins. For success of these RNAs, a drug delivery system (DDS) is required to control a pharmacokinetics, to enhance cellular uptake, to overcome biological membranes, and to release the cargo into the cytoplasm. Based on past research, developing nanoparticles that are neutrally charged have been the mainstream of their development. Also, the materials are further mounted with pH- and/or reducing environment-responsive units. In this review, we summarize progress made in the molecular design of these materials. We also focus on the importance of the hydrophobic scaffold for tissue/cell targeting, intracellular trafficking, and immune responses. As a practical example, the design concept of the SS-cleavable and pH-activated lipid-like material (ssPalm) and subsequent molecular modification tailored to the RNA-based medical application is discussed.

    DNA vaccinations are promising strategies for treating diseases that require cellular immunity (i.e., cancer and protozoan infection). Here, we report on the use of a liposomal nanocarrier (lipid nanoparticles (LNPs)) composed of an SS-cleavable and pH-activated lipidlike material (ssPalm) as an in vivo DNA vaccine. After subcutaneous administration, the LNPs containing an ssPalmE, an ssPalm with vitamin E scaffolds, elicited a higher gene expression activity in comparison with the other LNPs composed of the ssPalms with different hydrophobic scaffolds. Immunization with the ssPalmE-LNPs encapsulating plasmid DNA that encodes ovalbumin (OVA, a model tumor antigen) or profilin (TgPF, a potent antigen of Toxoplasma gondii) induced substantial antitumor or antiprotozoan effects, respectively. Flow cytometry analysis of the cells that had taken up the LNPs in draining lymph nodes (dLNs) showed that the ssPalmE-LNPs were largely taken up by macrophages and a small number of dendritic cells. We found that the transient deletion of CD169+ macrophages, a subpopulation of macrophages that play a key role in cancer immunity, unexpectedly enhanced the activity of the DNA vaccine. These data suggest that the ssPalmE-LNPs are effective DNA vaccine carriers, and a strategy for avoiding their being trapped by CD169+ macrophages will be a promising approach for developing next-generation DNA vaccines.

    Gene and nucleic acid-based medication is an ultimate strategy in the field of personalized medicine. A gene or short interference RNA (siRNA) molecule needs to be delivered to the appropriate organelle (i.e., nucleus and cytoplasm, respectively). We recently focused on improving the intrinsic activity of my original material (ssPalm) in terms of endosomal/lysosomal membrane destabilization activity by chemically modifying the tertiary amine structure. In parallel, I have been expanding the range of applications of ssPalms. The first application is a DNA or RNA vaccine. My crucial finding is that the vitamin E-scaffold ssPalm (ssPalmE) is highly immune-stimulative when combined with DNA. Thereafter, I redesigned the hydrophobic scaffold structure, and found that an oleic acid-scaffold ssPalm (ssPalmO) can confer anti-inflammatory characteristics. Based on this result, I further upgraded the ssPalmO, by inserting a newly designed linker with self-degradable properties.

    A dendritic cells (DCs)-based vaccine (DC-vaccine) system is an attractive technology for eliciting antigen-specific immune responses that can protect subjects from infectious diseases and for curing various types of cancers. For the insertion of a foreign antigen to DCs, the transfection of an antigen-coding mRNA to the cells is a promising approach. In order to introduce an antigen, a carrier for mRNA transfection is required, since the mRNA molecule per se is unstable in serum-containing medium. We previously reported on an ionizable lipid-like material with vitamin E-scaffolds (ssPalmE) as a material for a lipid nanoparticle (LNP)-based carrier for nucleic acids. In the present study, we report on the development of a lipoplex-type mRNA carrier for use as a DC-vaccine by using a combination of an ssPalmE-LNP and an α-helical cationic peptide "KALA" (ssPalmE-KALA). The transfection of mRNAs complexed with the ssPalmE-KALA achieved a significantly higher protein expression and the production of proinflammatory cytokines from murine bone marrow derived DCs (BMDCs) in comparison with a lipoplex that was prepared with an ssPalm with fatty acid-scaffolds (myristic acid; ssPalmM-KALA). A cellular uptake process and a pH-responsive membrane-destabilization activity cannot explain the preferred protein expression and immune-stimulation caused by the ssPalmE-KALA. Proteomic analyses suggest that transfection with the ssPalmM-KALA stimulates a down-regulatory pathway of translation, while the transfection with the ssPalmE-KALA does not stimulate it. In the vaccination with the BMDCs that were preliminarily transfected with an ovalbumin (OVA)-encoding mRNA elicited the induction OVA specific cytotoxic T-lymphocyte activity in vivo. In parallel, the vaccination induced significant prophylactic anti-tumor effects against a model tumor that stably expressed the OVA protein. Based on the above findings, the ssPalmE-KALA appears to be a potent ex vivo DCs-based RNA vaccine platform.

    Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) have emerged as a nonviral mRNA delivery vehicle for both basic and clinical applications. In the present study, we showed that the LNPs passed through the zona pellucida, the extracellular matrix surrounding the egg, and efficiently transduced preimplantation embryos. We first tested different types of surface polarity in LNPs carrying Enhanced Green Fluorescent Protein (EGFP) (LNP-EGFP) by changing cholesterol and found that the LNPs composed with neutral or anionic cholesterol are less toxic and more suitable for mRNA delivery into zygotes. Next, we transferred Cre mRNA using neutral LNP (LNP-Cre) and saw the floxed allele recombination in reporter mTmG transgenic embryos. After treatment with LNP-Cre at a 10 ng/μL concentration for 20 h at the zygote stage, about 76% mTmG embryos expressed the reporter EGFP at the blastocyst stage, and about 82% of embryos expressed EGFP in both the placenta and fetus at E12.5. Finally, we treated mTmG blastocyst stage embryos with LNP-Cre at a 50 ng/μL concentration for 20 h and found that about 86% of them expressed the reporter EGFP. Intriguingly, the EGFP fluorescence was only observed in trophectoderm cells, but not in the inner cell mass. Subsequently, we observed placenta-specific reporter EGFP expression in about 65% of the later-stage embryos (E12.5). Collectively, our study shows that LNPs provide a novel mRNA delivery system into preimplantation embryos that can be used for studying gene functions in pre-, peri-, and post-implantation development.

    Proinflammatory cytokines are essential for initiating immune responses; however, excessive or aging-related chronic inflammation impairs immunity and reduces vaccine efficacy. In this study, we developed lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) encapsulating anti-inflammatory microRNA-192 (miR-192) to attenuate inflammation and improve vaccine performance in the elderly. Results revealed that specific proinflammatory cytokines, including interleukin (IL)-6 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α at the vaccination site, diminished antigen-specific antibody production. Notably, miR-192 endowed LNPs with strong anti-inflammatory properties, markedly enhancing vaccine efficacy, especially in aged mice. Transcriptomic analyses demonstrated that miR-192 downregulated multiple pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as senescence-associated secreted phenotype factors, which hinder vaccine responses. Additionally, miR-192 inhibited key components of the JAK-STAT signaling pathway, crucial for cytokine receptor signaling in myeloid cells. Overall, these findings indicate that miR-192 effectively suppresses harmful inflammatory responses, substantially enhancing vaccine efficacy, and highlight the therapeutic potential of the anti-inflammatory microRNA-based adjuvants for improving vaccination outcomes in the elderly.

    Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs)-encapsulating mRNA (mRNA-LNPs) have become an important modality for vaccine development. mRNA-LNPs also have the ability to introduce therapeutic proteins, which suggests that they should also be a promising modality for gene therapy. However, the intrinsic adjuvant activity of mRNA-LNPs is a fundamental function of the LNPs in RNA vaccines, and this has shown a potential risk of inducing anti-transgene immunity when mRNA-LNPs were used in gene therapy. Therefore, a reduction in the adjuvant activity and adaptive immunity against an expressed protein are prerequisites for therapeutic applications. In this study, two strategies were combined to modulate the adjuvant activity of subcutaneously injected mRNA-LNPs: (1) loading a lipid derivative of dexamethasone to suppress inflammation and (2) inserting a sequence complementary to microRNA-142 into the mRNA to suppress gene expression in immune cells. The combination of these strategies reduced immune reactions against the model antigen ovalbumin in mRNA-LNPs.

    Messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines effectively induce antibody production and T cell responses. However, adverse reactions, such as fatigue and fever, following administration remain a key challenge. To modulate the immunogenicity and reactogenicity of mRNA vaccines, the optimization of lipid nanoparticle (LNP) formulations has been attempted, particularly by screening ionizable lipids. In contrast, the potential impact of modifying other LNP components─poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-lipids, cholesterol, and phospholipids─on overall vaccine effects and adverse reactions remains underexplored. Here, we prepared mRNA-LNP formulations with altered structures and molar ratios of these components to assess their effects on in vivo protein expression, as well as on the induction of antigen-specific immune responses and adverse reactions. Reducing the PEG chain length and molar ratio of PEG-lipids increased antigen-specific antibody and CD8+ T cell responses. LNPs with cholesterol substituted by plant sterols, or LNPs with phospholipids replaced by those with different head and tail group structures, induced antigen-specific antibody and CD8+ T cell responses comparable to the control formulation. Alternately, these LNPs significantly reduced inflammatory cytokine production and adverse reactions, including fever, compared with the control LNPs. Finally, correlation analysis revealed a positive association between protein expression in specific organs and the magnitude of immune responses and adverse reactions. These findings demonstrate that modifying PEG-lipids, cholesterol, and phospholipids is beneficial for modulating the immunogenicity and reactogenicity of the mRNA-LNP vaccine.

    Abstract Background Gastric cancer with peritoneal metastasis is associated with a poor prognosis. Current treatments, including the first-line therapy of combination chemotherapy with nivolumab for advanced recurrent gastric cancer, have shown limited efficacy against peritoneal dissemination. In this study, we evaluated neoantigen (neoAg)-mRNA lipid nanoparticle (LNP) as a potential agent in combination with anti-PD-1 therapy, focusing on its effects on neoAg-specific CD8+ T cell responses and antitumor efficacy in a murine gastric cancer model. Methods The mRNA, comprising a tandem minigene encoding three neoAgs identified from the murine gastric cancer YTN16 cell line, was synthesized by in vitro transcription and encapsulated within LNPs. NeoAg-specific CD8+ T cells in the spleens and tumors were assessed by flow cytometry. The antitumor efficacy of the neoAg-mRNA-LNP vaccine, alone or in combination with anti-PD-1 antibody, was evaluated in both subcutaneous and peritoneal metastasis models of YTN16. Results The neoAg-mRNA-LNP vaccine induced significantly higher frequencies of neoAg-specific CD8+ T cells than the neoAg-dendritic cell vaccine, confirming its enhanced immunogenicity. NeoAg-mRNA-LNP vaccination led to robust tumor regression, achieving complete eradication in all treated mice, especially when combined with anti-PD-1 therapy. This effect was associated with an increase in neoAg-specific progenitor-exhausted and intermediate-exhausted CD8+ T cells. In a peritoneal metastasis model, neoAg-mRNA-LNP monotherapy prevented peritoneal dissemination when administered prophylactically, and combination therapy with anti-PD-1 effectively suppressed tumor growth in a therapeutic setting. Conclusions NeoAg-mRNA-LNP vaccines elicit potent neoAg-specific CD8+ T cell responses and show enhanced antitumor efficacy with anti-PD-1 therapy in gastric cancer with peritoneal metastasis.

    Lipid nanoparticles with encapsulated mRNA (mRNA-LNPs) have become key modalities for personalized medicines and RNA vaccines. Once the platform technology is established, the mRNA-LNPs could be applicable to a variety of protein-based therapeutic strategies. A post-encapsulation method, in which the mRNA solution is incubated with preformed mRNA-free LNPs to prepare the mRNA-LNPs, would accelerate the development of RNA-based therapeutics since even nonexperts could manufacture the mRNA-LNPs. In this study, we describe that the post-encapsulation of mRNA into mRNA-free LNPs is accompanied by "nucleic acid-bridged fusion" of them. The adsorption of mRNA onto mRNA-free LNPs via electrostatic interactions and the internalization of mRNA into the LNPs via particle-to-particle fusion are two steps that occur at different levels of pH. To complete post-encapsulation using only one-step mixing, the pH must be controlled within a limited region where both processes occur simultaneously. The size of the mRNA-free LNPs determines the effectiveness of mRNA loading.

    Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a hereditary disease that requires gene or nucleic acid therapy, which involves muscle-targeted delivery of therapeutic material. We previously developed liposomes targeting muscle tissue in DMD model mice (mdx) using an A2G80 peptide, which has an affinity for α-dystroglycan abundantly expressed on the muscle cell membrane. However, these liposomes did not carry gene or nucleic acids. In this study, we aimed to develop muscle-targeting lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) encapsulating luciferase mRNA and evaluate gene expression levels after systemic administration of these LNPs. We first evaluated the efficiency of mRNA delivery based on luciferase activity using polyethylene glycol (PEG)-dimyristoyl glycerol (DMG) and PEG-distearoyl glycerol (DSG) in mdx systemic administration. PEG-DSG-LNPs showed lower luciferase expression in the liver and spleen and higher expression in mdx muscle tissue than PEG-DMG-LNPs. The addition of the A2G80 peptide to LNPs using PEG-DSG (A2G80-DSG-LNPs) significantly increased their activity in mdx but not in normal mice. These results suggest that A2G80-DSG-LNPs allow for muscle-targeted mRNA delivery and are useful tools for DMD treatment.

    We evaluated the significant determinants of the therapeutic efficacy of anti-programmed death-ligand 1 (aPD-L1) monoclonal antibodies (aPD-L1 mAbs) by comparing the differences in antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) activity of aPD-L1 mAbs of different isotypes (clones 10F.9G2 and MIH6). In MM48 tumor-bearing mice, MIH6 without ADCC activity inhibited tumor growth by more than 90 %, whereas 10F.9G2 with ADCC activity showed slight antitumor effect. The dissociation constant of PD-L1 on MM48 cell surface was approximately 100-fold lower for MIH6 than for 10F.9G2. However, antibody uptake by cells was comparable for both aPD-L1 mAbs. The half-life and amount of intact form of aPD-L1 mAbs in tumors were 2.6- and 1.6-fold higher in MIH6 cells than in 10F.9G2 cells, respectively. Therefore, differences in the pharmacokinetics of PD-L1 mAbs along with different ADCC activities are insufficient to explain their different antitumor effects. Only 10F.9G2 reduced the number of CD8+ T cells in MM48 tumor-bearing mice. These results suggest that the difference in efficacy of aPD-L1 mAbs could be because aPD-L1 mAbs recognize PD-L1 on T cells, and the number of CD8+ T cells exerting antitumor effect is depleted by 10F.9G2 through ADCC activity. In conclusion, the effect of differences in the pharmacokinetics of aPD-L1 mAbs on the antitumor effect in MM48 tumor-bearing mice was considered negligible. Additionally, the difference in ADCC activity of aPD-L1 mAbs caused a decrease in CD8+ T cells, and this off-target effect was considered a factor affecting their antitumor effects.

    Messenger RNA vaccines based on lipid nanoparticles (mRNA-LNPs) are promising vaccine modalities. However, mRNA-LNP vaccines frequently cause adverse reactions such as swelling and fever in humans, partly due to the inflammatory nature of LNP. Modification of the ionizable lipids used in LNP is one approach to avoid these adverse reactions. Herein, we report the development of mRNA-LNP vaccines with better protective immunity and reduced adverse reactions using LNP, which contains a disulfide (SS)-cleavable bond and pH-activated lipid-like materials with oleic acid (ssPalmO) as an ionizable lipid (LNPssPalmO). We used mRNA expressing H5N1 subtype high-pathogenicity avian influenza virus-derived hemagglutinin or neuraminidase to generate mRNA-LNP vaccines against H5N1 influenza. Compared with conventional LNP, mRNA-LNPssPalmO induced comparable antigen-specific antibodies and better interferon-gamma (IFN-γ)-producing T-helper type-1 (Th1) responses in mice. Both mRNA-LNPssPalmO and conventional mRNA-LNP conferred strong protection against homologous H5N1 virus challenge. In addition, mRNA-LNPssPalmO showed better cross-protection against heterologous H5N1 virus challenge compared with conventional mRNA-LNPs. Furthermore, we observed that mRNA-LNPssPalmO induced less inflammatory responses (e.g., inflammatory cytokine production and vascular hyperpermeability) and fewer adverse reactions (e.g., weight loss and fever) compared with conventional mRNA-LNP. These results suggest that mRNA-LNPssPalmO would be a safe alternative to conventional vaccines to overcome mRNA-LNP vaccine hesitancy.

    Lipid nanoparticle-encapsulated mRNA (mRNA-LNP) vaccines have been approved for use to combat coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The mRNA-LNPs contain PEG-conjugated lipids. Clinical studies have reported that mRNA-LNPs induce the production of anti-PEG antibodies, but the anti-PEG antibodies do not affect the production of neutralizing antibodies. However, the detailed influence of anti-PEG antibodies on mRNA-LNP vaccines remains unclear. Therefore, in this study, we prepared ovalbumin (OVA) as a model antigen-encoding mRNA-loaded LNP (mRNA-OVA-LNP), and we determined whether anti-PEG antibodies could affect the antigen-specific immune response of mRNA-OVA-LNP vaccination in mice pretreated with PEG-modified liposomes to induce the production of anti-PEG antibodies. After intramuscular (i.m.) injection of the mRNA-LNP, the anti-PEG antibodies did not change the expression of protein or induction of cytokine and cellular immune response but did slightly increase the induction of antigen-specific antibodies. Furthermore, repeated mRNA-LNP i.m. injection induced the production of anti-PEG IgM and anti-PEG IgG. Our results suggest that mRNA-LNP induces the production of anti-PEG antibodies, but the priming of the antigen-specific immune response of mRNA-LNP vaccination is not notably affected by anti-PEG antibodies.

    This study aimed to assess the applicability of solution-state 1H NMR for molecular-level characterization of siRNA-loaded lipid nanoparticles (LNP). Dilinoleylmethyl-4-dimethylaminobutyrate (DLin-MC3-DMA, MC3) was used as an ionizable lipid, and siRNA-loaded LNPs were prepared by pre-mixing and post-mixing methods. The pre-mixing method involved mixing an acidic solution containing siRNA with an ethanolic lipid solution using a microfluidic mixer. The pre-mixed LNP was prepared by dialyzing the mixed solution into the phosphate buffered saline (PBS, pH 7.4). The post-mixed LNP was prepared by mixing the siRNA solution with empty LNP in an acidic condition with and without ethanol, resulting in post-mixed LNP (A) and (B), respectively. Both pre-mixed and post-mixed LNPs formed LNP particles with an average diameter of approximately 50 nm. Moreover, the ratio of encapsulated siRNA to lipid content in each LNP particle remained constant regardless of the preparation method. However, small-angle X-ray scattering measurements indicated structural variations in the siRNA-MC3 stacked bilayer structure formed in the LNPs, depending on the preparation method. Solution-state 1H NMR analysis suggested that the siRNA was incorporated uniformly into the LNP core for pre-mixed LNP compared to post-mixed LNPs. In contrast, the post-mixed LNPs contained siRNA-empty regions with local enrichment of siRNA in the LNP core. This heterogeneity was more pronounced in post-mixed LNP (B) than in post-mixed LNP (A), suggesting that ethanol facilitated the homogeneous mixing of siRNA with LNP lipids. The silencing effect of each siRNA-loaded LNP was reduced in the order of pre-mixed LNP, post-mixed LNP (A), and post-mixed LNP (B). This suggested that the heterogeneity of the siRNA-loaded LNP could cause a reduction in the silencing effect of the incorporated siRNA inside LNPs. The present study highlighted that NMR-based characterization of siRNA-loaded LNP can reveal the molecular-level heterogeneity of siRNA-loaded LNP, which helps to optimize the preparation conditions of siRNA-loaded LNP formulations.

    Vascular calcification, which is a major complication of diabetes mellitus, is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Osteogenic differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) is one of the key mechanisms underlying vascular calcification. Emerging evidence suggests that macrophage-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) may be involved in calcification within atherosclerotic plaques in patients with diabetes mellitus. However, the role of macrophage-derived EVs in the progression of vascular calcification is largely unknown. In this study, we investigated whether macrophage-derived EVs contribute to the osteogenic differentiation of VSMCs under high glucose conditions. We isolated EVs that were secreted by murine peritoneal macrophages under normal glucose (EVs-NG) or high glucose (EVs-HG) conditions. miRNA array analysis in EVs from murine macrophages showed that miR-17-5p was significantly increased in EVs-HG compared with EVs-NG. Prediction analysis with miRbase identified transforming growth factor β receptor type II (TGF-β RII) as a potential target of miR-17-5p. EVs-HG as well as miR-17-5p overexpression with lipid nanoparticles inhibited the gene expression of Runx2, and TGF-β RII. Furthermore, we demonstrated that VSMCs transfected with miR-17-5p mimic inhibited calcium deposition. Our findings reveal a novel role of macrophage-derived EVs in the negative regulation of osteogenic differentiation in VSMCs under high glucose conditions.

    Diesel exhaust particles (DEPs) are very small (typically < 0.2 μm) fragments that have become major air pollutants. DEPs are comprised of a carbonaceous core surrounded by organic compounds such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and nitro-PAHs. Inhaled DEPs reach the deepest sites in the respiratory system where they could induce respiratory/cardiovascular dysfunction. Additionally, a previous study has revealed that a portion of inhaled DEPs often activate immune cells and subsequently induce somatic inflammation. Moreover, DEPs are known to localize in lymph nodes. Therefore, in this study we explored the effect of DEPs on the lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) that are a constituent of the walls of lymph nodes. DEP exposure induced cell death in a reactive oxygen species (ROS)-dependent manner. Following exposure to DEPs, next-generation sequence (NGS) analysis identified an upregulation of the integrated stress response (ISR) pathway and cell death cascades. Both the soluble and insoluble components of DEPs generated intracellular ROS. Three-dimensional Raman imaging revealed that DEPs are taken up by LECs, which suggests internalized DEP cores produce ROS, as well as soluble DEP components. However, significant cell death pathways such as apoptosis, necroptosis, ferroptosis, pyroptosis, and parthanatos seem unlikely to be involved in DEP-induced cell death in LECs. This study clarifies how DEPs invading the body might affect the lymphatic system through the induction of cell death in LECs.

    RNA vaccines are applicable to the treatment of various infectious diseases via the inducement of robust immune responses against target antigens by expressing antigen proteins in the human body. The delivery of messenger RNA by lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) has become a versatile drug delivery system used in the administration of RNA vaccines. LNPs are widely considered to possess adjuvant activity that induces a strong immune response. However, the properties of LNPs that contribute to their adjuvant activity continue to require clarification. To characterize the relationships between the lipid composition, particle morphology, and adjuvant activity of LNPs, the nanostructures of LNPs and their antibody production were evaluated. To simply compare the adjuvant activity of LNPs, empty LNPs were subcutaneously injected with recombinant proteins. Consistent with previous research, the presence of ionizable lipids was one of the determinant factors. Adjuvant activity was induced when a tiny cholesterol assembly (cholesterol-induced phase, ChiP) was formed according to the amount of cholesterol present. Moreover, adjuvant activity was diminished when the content of cholesterol was excessive. Thus, it is plausible that an intermediate structure of cholesterol (not in a crystalline-like state) in an intra-particle space could be closely related to the immunogenicity of LNPs.

    RNA vaccines based on Lipid nanoparticles (LNP) were put into practical use within only one year after the global outbreak of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). This success of RNA vaccine highlights the utility of an mRNA delivery system as a vaccination strategy. Potent immunostimulatory activity of LNPs (i.e., inflammation occurring at the injection site and the production of inflammatory cytokines) have recently been reported. However, we have only limited knowledge concerning which cells are responsible for responding to the LNPs. We report herein on in vitro chemokine production from non-immune cells in response to exposure to LNPs. In this study, SM-102, an ionizable lipid that is used in the approved RNA vaccine for the clinical usage of COVID-19 mRNA vaccine, was used. Immortalized mouse lymphatic endothelial cells (mLECs) or professional antigen presenting cells (APCs) such as RAW 264.7 monocyte/macrophage cells were incubated with LNPs that contained no mRNA. As a result, chemokines involved in the recruitment of monocytes/neutrophils were produced only by the mLECs following the LNP treatment. These findings indicate that LEC appear to serve as the cell that sends out initial signals to response LNPs.

    Intranasal vaccines are anticipated to be powerful tools for combating many infectious diseases, including SARS-CoV-2, because they induce not only systemic immunity but also mucosal immunity at the site of initial infection. However, they are generally inefficient in inducing an antigen-specific immune response without adjuvants. Here, we developed an adjuvant-free intranasal vaccine platform that utilizes the preexisting immunity induced by previous infection or vaccination to enhance vaccine effectiveness. We made RBD-HA, a fusion of the receptor-binding domain (RBD) of spike derived from SARS-CoV-2 as a vaccine target with HA derived from influenza A virus (IAV) as a carrier protein. Intranasal immunization of previously IAV-infected mice with RBD-HA without an adjuvant elicited robust production of RBD-specific systemic IgG and mucosal IgA by utilizing both HA-specific preexisting IgG and CD4+ T cells. Consequently, the mice were efficiently protected from SARS-CoV-2 infection. Additionally, we demonstrated the high versatility of this intranasal vaccine platform by assessing various vaccine antigens and preexisting immunity associated with a variety of infectious diseases. The results of this study suggest the promising potential of this intranasal vaccine platform to address problems associated with intranasal vaccines.

    Because of its efficient and robust gene transfer capability, messenger RNA (mRNA) has become a promising tool in various research fields. The lipid nanoparticle (LNP) is considered to be a fundamental technology for an mRNA delivery system and has been used extensively for the development of RNA vaccines against SARS-CoV-2. We recently developed ssPalm, an environmentally responsive lipid-like material, as a component of LNP for mRNA delivery. In this study, a self-degradable unit (phenyl ester) that confers high transfection activity and an immune stimulating unit (vitamin E scaffold) for high immune activation were combined to design a material, namely, ssPalmE-Phe-P4C2, for vaccine use. To design a simple and user-friendly form of an RNA vaccine based on this material, a freeze-drying-based preparation method for producing a ready-to-use-type LNP (LNP(RtoU)) was used to prepare the LNPssPalmE-Phe. The optimization of the preparation method and the lipid composition of the LNPssPalmE-Phe(RtoU) revealed that dioleoyl-sn-glycero phosphatidylethanolamine (DOPE) was a suitable helper lipid for achieving a high vaccination activity of the LNPssPalmE-Phe(RtoU). Other findings indicated that to maintain particle properties and vaccination activity, a 40% cholesterol content was necessary. A single administration of the LNPssPalmE-Phe(RtoU) that contained mRNA-encoding Ovalbumin (mOVA-LNPssPalmE-Phe(RtoU)) demonstrated a significant suppression of tumor progression in a tumor-bearing mouse OVA-expressing cell line (E.G7-OVA). In summary, the LNPssPalmE-Phe(RtoU) is an easy-to-handle drug delivery system (DDS) for delivering mRNA antigens in immunotherapy.

    RNA vaccines based on lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) with in vitro transcribed mRNA (IVT-mRNA) encapsulated are now a currently successful but still evolving modality of vaccines. One of the advantages of RNA vaccines is their ability to induce CD8+ T-cell-mediated cellular immunity that is indispensable for excluding pathogen-infected cells or cancer cells from the body. In this study, we report on the development of LNPs with an enhanced capability for inducing cellular immunity by using an ionizable lipid with a vitamin E scaffold. An RNA vaccine that contained this ionizable lipid and an IVT-mRNA encoding a model antigen ovalbumin (OVA) induced OVA-specific cytotoxic T cell responses and showed an antitumor effect against an E.G7-OVA tumor model. Vaccination with the LNPs conferred protection against lethal infection by Toxoplasma gondii using its antigen TgPF. The vitamin E scaffold-dependent type I interferon response was important for effector CD8+ T cell differentiation induced by the mRNA-LNPs. Our findings also revealed that conventional dendritic cells (cDCs) were essential for achieving CD8+ T cell responses induced by the mRNA-LNPs, while the XCR1-positive subset of cDCs, cDC1 specialized for antigen cross-presentation, was not required. Consistently, the mRNA-LNPs were found to selectively transfect another subset of cDCs, cDC2 that had migrated from the skin to lymph nodes, where they could make vaccine-antigen-dependent contacts with CD8+ T cells. The findings indicate that the activation of innate immune signaling by the adjuvant activity of the vitamin E scaffold and the expression of antigens in cDC2 are important for subsequent antigen presentation and the establishment of antigen-specific immune responses.

    Knockout mice are useful tools that can provide information about the normal function of genes, including their biochemical, developmental, and physiological roles. One problem associated with the generation of knockout mice is that the loss of some genes of interest produces a lethal phenotype. Therefore, the use of conditioned knockout mice, in which genes are disrupted in specific organs, is essential for the elucidation of disease pathogenesis and the verification of drug targets. In general, conditional knockout mice are produced using the Cre/loxP system; however, the production of the large numbers of Cre/flox knockout and control mice required for analysis requires substantial time and effort. Here, we describe the generation of liver-specific conditional knockout mice via the introduction of lipid nanoparticles encapsulating Cre mRNA into the liver of floxed mice. This technique does not require the production of offspring by mating floxed mice and is therefore more convenient than the conventional method. The results presented here demonstrate that the LNP-based method enables liver-specific gene knockout in a short period of time.

    Multiple sclerosis is a disease caused by autoantigen-responsive immune cells that disrupt the myelin in the central nervous system (CNS). Although immunosuppressive drugs are used to suppress symptoms, no definitive therapy exists. As in the experimental autoimmune encephalitis (EAE) model of multiple sclerosis, a partial sequence of the myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG35-55) was identified as a causative autoantigen. This suggests that the induction of immune tolerance that is specific to MOG35-55 would be a fundamental treatment for EAE. We previously reported that lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) containing an anionic phospholipid, phosphatidylserine (PS), in their lipid composition, can be used to deliver mRNA and that this leads to proteins of interest to be expressed in the spleen. In addition to the targeting capability of PS, PS molecules avoid activating the immune system. Physiologically, the recognition of PS on apoptotic cells suppresses immune activation against these cells by releasing cytokines, such as interleukin-10 (IL-10) and transforming growth factor (TGF)-β that negatively regulate immunity. In this study, we tested whether mRNA delivery of autoantigens to the spleen by PS-LNPs causes the expression of MOG35-55 antigens with minimal immune stimulation and whether this could be used to treat an EAE model by inducing immune tolerance.

    The growing significance of messenger RNA (mRNA) therapeutics in diverse medical applications, such as cancer, infectious diseases, and genetic disorders, highlighted the need for efficient and safe delivery systems. Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) have shown great promise for mRNA delivery, but challenges such as toxicity and immunogenicity still remain to be addressed. In this study, we aimed to compare the performance of polyplex nanomicelles, our original cationic polymer-based carrier, and LNPs in various aspects, including delivery efficiency, organ toxicity, muscle damage, immune reaction, and pain. Our results showed that nanomicelles (PEG-PAsp(DET)) and LNPs (SM-102) exhibited distinct characteristics, with the former demonstrating relatively sustained protein production and reduced inflammation, making them suitable for therapeutic purposes. On the other hand, LNPs displayed desirable properties for vaccines, such as rapid mRNA expression and potent immune response. Taken together, these results suggest the different potentials of nanomicelles and LNPs, supporting further optimization of mRNA delivery systems tailored for specific purposes.

    Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) are small, cell-derived particles with sizes of approximately 100 nm. Since these particles include cargos such as host cell-derived proteins, messenger RNAs, and micro RNAs, they serve as mediators of cell-cell communication. While the analysis of the pharmacokinetic of sEVs after the intravenous injection have been reported, the lymphatic transport of sEVs remains unclear. The objective of this study was to provide insights into the intra-lymphatic trafficking and distribution of sEVs when they are injected into an interstitial space both in normal skin tissue and in cancerous tissue. When sEVs were Subcutaneously administered into the tail base and the tumor tissue, they preferably accumulated in the lymph nodes (LNs), rather than in the liver and the spleen. The findings reported herein show that the lymphatic transport of sEVs was drastically changed in model mice, in which a surgical treatment was used to modify to allow the dominant lymphatic flow from the footpad directly to the axillary LN via the inguinal LN. Based on the results, we conclude that when sEVs are injected into the subcutis space, they are preferably delivered to the LN via the lymphatic system. Further, the extent of accumulation of sEVs in the LN after subcutaneous injection was reduced when they were preliminarily incubated with Proteinase K. These results suggest that the lymphatic drainage of sEVs in normal skin tissue is regulated by membrane proteins on their surface. This reduction, however, was not observed in the case of cancer tissue. This discrepancy can be attributed to the presence of highly permeable lymphatic vessels in the tumor tissue. Further, the major cell subtypes that captured sEVs in the LN were LN-resident medullary sinus macrophages. These collective findings indicate that the lymphatic drainage of sEVs are mediated by proteins and, that they may appear to contribute to the control of the function of immune-responsive cells in the LNs.

    The lipid nanoparticle (LNP) is one of the promising nanotechnologies for the delivery of RNA molecules, such as small interfering RNA (siRNA) and messenger RNA (mRNA). A series of LNPs that contain an mRNA encoding the antigen protein of SARS-CoV-2 were already approved as RNA vaccines against this infectious disease. Since LNP formulations are generally metastable, their physicochemical properties are expected to shift toward a more stable state during the long-time storage of suspensions. The current mRNA vaccines are supplied in the form of frozen formulations with a cryoprotectant for preventing deterioration. They must be stored in a freezer at temperatures from -80 °C to -15 °C. It is thought that therapeutic applications of this mRNA-LNP technology could be accelerated if a new formulation that permits mRNA-LNPs to be stored under milder conditions were available. We previously reported on a one-pot method for producing siRNA-encapsulated LNPs by combining freeze-drying technology with the conventional alcohol dilution method (referred to herein as the "alcohol dilution-lyophilization method"). In this study, this method was applied to the preparation of mRNA-LNPs to provide a freeze-dried formulation of mRNA LNPs. The resulting formulation can be stored at 4 °C for at least 4 months.

    Based on the clinical success of an in vitro transcribed mRNA (IVT-mRNA) that is encapsulated in lipid nanoparticles (mRNA-LNPs), there is a growing demand by researchers to test whether their own biological findings might be applicable for use in mRNA-based therapeutics. However, the equipment and/or know-how required for manufacturing such nanoparticles is often inaccessible. To encourage more innovation in mRNA therapeutics, a simple method for preparing mRNA-LNPs is prerequisite. In this study, we report on a method for encapsulating IVT-mRNA into LNPs by rehydrating a Ready-to-Use empty freeze-dried LNP (LNPs(RtoU)) formulation with IVT-mRNA solution followed by heating. The resulting mRNA-LNPs(RtoU) had a similar intraparticle structure compared to the mRNA-LNPs prepared by conventional microfluidic mixing. In vivo genome editing, a promising application of these types of mRNA-LNPs, was accomplished using the LNPs(RtoU) containing co-encapsulated Cas9-mRNA and a small guide RNA.

    The reactivation of anticancer immunity is a fundamental principle in cancer immunotherapy as evidenced by the use of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). While treatment with the ICIs is shown to have remarkable and durable therapeutic effects in the responders, the low objective response rate (<40%) continues to be a major problem. Since myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), heterogenous cells with strong immunosuppressive activity that originate in the hematopoietic system, suppress the anticancer immunity via parallel immune checkpoint-dependent and independent pathways, these cells are potential targets for improving the efficacy of cancer immunotherapy. In this study, it is demonstrated that MDSCs can be depleted by delivering synthetic glucocorticoid dexamethasone to phagocytic cells in the spleen using a lipid nanoparticle. Since the interaction of nanoparticles with T cells is intrinsically poor, this strategy also enables the "detargeting" from T cells, thus avoiding the nonspecific suppression of cytotoxic immune responses against cancer cells. In addition to the direct anticancer effect of the nanoparticulated dexamethasone, their synergistic anticancer effect with ICIs is also reported.

    INTRODUCTION: Vaccinations are ideal for reducing the severity of clinical manifestations and secondary complications of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2); however, SARS-CoV-2 continues to cause morbidity and mortality worldwide. In contrast to parenteral vaccines such as messenger RNA vaccines, nasal vaccines are expected to be more effective in preventing viral infections in the upper respiratory tract, the primary locus for viral infection and transmission. In this study, we examined the prospects of an inactivated whole-virion (WV) vaccine administered intranasally against SARS-CoV-2. METHODS: Mice were immunized subcutaneously (subcutaneous vaccine) or intranasally (nasal vaccine) with the inactivated WV of SARS-CoV-2 as the antigen. RESULTS: The spike protein (S)-specific IgA level was found to be higher upon nasal vaccination than after subcutaneous vaccination. The level of S-specific IgG in the serum was also increased by the nasal vaccine, although it was lower than that induced by the subcutaneous vaccine. The nasal vaccine exhibited a stronger defense against viral invasion in the upper respiratory tract than the subcutaneous vaccine and unimmunized control; however, both subcutaneous and nasal vaccines provided protection in the lower respiratory tract. Furthermore, we found that intranasally administered inactivated WV elicited robust production of S-specific IgA in the nasal mucosa and IgG in the blood of mice previously vaccinated with messenger RNA encoding the S protein. DISCUSSION: Overall, these results suggest that a nasal vaccine containing inactivated WV can be a highly effective means of protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection.

    Systemically administered lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) are complexed with Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) in the bloodstream, and the complex is subsequently largely taken up by hepatocytes. Based on a previous report showing that, like blood, lymph fluid also contains ApoE, and that LECs, in turn, expresses a low density-lipoprotein receptor (LDLR), which is the receptor responsible for the ApoE-bound LNP, we hypothesized that subcutaneously administered LNPs would be taken up by LECs via an ApoE-LDLR pathway. Our in vitro studies using immortal LECs that we established in a previous study showed that LEC indeed took up LNPs in an ApoE-dependent manner. We then reported on the development of LNPs that target the lymphatic endothelium for in vivo siRNA delivery after subcutaneous administration. The key to success for in vivo LEC targeting is that the surface needs to be modified with a high density of polyethylene glycol (PEG)-conjugated lipids with short acyl chains (C14). The LNPs were drained into the lymphatic system, and then accumulated in lymphatic endothelial cells in an ApoE-dependent manner, most likely after the release of the PEG-lipid. Subcutaneous administration of optimized LNPs containing encapsulated siRNA against VEGFR3, a marker of LECs, significantly inhibited the expression of VEGFR3. These findings are the first report of a simple straightforward strategy for targeting lymphatic endothelial cells by using ionizable lipid-formulated LNPs.

    Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) are one of the most successful technologies in messenger RNA (mRNA) delivery. While the liver is the most frequent target for LNP delivery of mRNA, technologies for delivering mRNA molecules to extrahepatic tissues are also important. Herein, it is reported on the development of an LNP that targets secondary lymphoid tissues. New types of alcohol-soluble phosphatidylserine (PS) derivatives are designed as materials that target immune cells and then incorporated into LNPs using a microfluidic technique with a high degree of scalability and reproducibility. The resulting LNP that contained the synthesized PS delivered mRNA to the spleen much more efficiently compared to a control LNP. A sub-organ analysis revealed that the PS-loaded LNP is extensively taken up by tissue-resident macrophages in the red pulp and the marginal zone of the spleen. Thus, the PS-loaded LNP reported in this study will be a promising strategy for clinical applications that involve delivering mRNA to the spleen.

    Background With the increased use of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), side effects and toxicity are a great concern. Anaphylaxis has been identified as a potential adverse event induced by ICIs. Anaphylaxis is a life-threatening medical emergency. However, the mechanisms and factors that can potentially influence the incidence and severity of anaphylaxis in patients with cancer remain unclear. Methods Healthy, murine colon 26, CT26, breast 4T1, EMT6, and renal RENCA tumor-bearing mice were treated with an anti-PD-L1 antibody (clone 10F.9G2). Symptoms of anaphylaxis were evaluated along with body temperature and mortality. The amounts of antidrug antibody and platelet-activating factor (PAF) in the blood were quantified via ELISA and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Immune cells were analyzed and isolated using a flow cytometer and magnetic-activated cell sorting, respectively. Results Repeated administration of the anti-PD-L1 antibody 10F.9G2 to tumor-bearing mice caused fatal anaphylaxis, depending on the type of tumor model. After administration, antidrug immunoglobulin G (IgG), but not IgE antibodies, were produced, and PAF was released as a chemical mediator during anaphylaxis, indicating that anaphylaxis was caused by an IgG-dependent pathway. Anaphylaxis induced by 10F.9G2 was treated with a PAF receptor antagonist. We identified that neutrophils and macrophages were PAF-producing effector cells during anaphylaxis, and the tumor-bearing models with increased numbers of neutrophils and macrophages showed lethal anaphylaxis after treatment with 10F.9G2. Depletion of both neutrophils and macrophages using clodronate liposomes prevented anaphylaxis in tumor-bearing mice. Conclusions Thus, increased numbers of neutrophils and macrophages associated with cancer progression may be risk factors for anaphylaxis. These findings may provide useful insights into the mechanism of anaphylaxis following the administration of immune checkpoint inhibitors in human subjects.

    Benzbromarone, a uricosuric drug, has the potential to cause serious hepatotoxicity. Several studies have shown the formation of reactive metabolites of benzbromarone and their association with hepatotoxicity in mice. However, it is unknown whether those reactive metabolites are generated in humans in vivo. In the present study, we firstly investigated the pharmacokinetic profiles of benzbromarone in chimeric TK-NOG mice transplanted with human hepatocytes (humanized-liver mice) and then investigated whether reactive metabolites could be generated. The area under the plasma concentration-time curve ratio of benzbromarone and its major metabolites (benzbromarone: 1'-hydroxy benzbromarone: 6-hydroxy benzbromarone) in humanized-liver mice was 1: 1.2: 0.7, which was similar to that reported in humans. In addition, glutathione conjugates and their further metabolites derived from the epoxidation of the benzofuran ring and 1',6-dihydroxylation of benzbromarone were detected in the livers, urine and plasma. Furthermore, their peak intensities in mass spectrometry showed markedly higher levels compared with those of TK-NOG mice. These results suggested that the metabolic profiles of benzbromarone in humanized-liver mice were similar to those in humans and that the reactive metabolites detected in humanized-liver mice could be generated and are associated with the benzbromarone-induced hepatotoxicity in humans.

    Lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) that form lymphatic vessels play a pivotal role in immune regulation. It was recently reported that LECs suppress the antigen-dependent anti-tumor immunity in cancer tissues. Thus, regulating the function of LECs is a promising strategy for cancer therapy. The objective of this study was to develop a method for the selective delivery of small interfering RNA (siRNA) to LECs. For this purpose, the siRNA was formulated into nanoparticles (LNPs) to prevent them from being degraded in body fluids and to facilitate their penetration of the cell membrane. A breakthrough technology for achieving this is ONPATTRO®, a world's first siRNA drug. Since LNPs are taken up by hepatocytes relatively well via low-density lipoprotein receptors, most of the LNP systems that have been developed so far target hepatocytes. In this study, we report on the development of a new method for the rapid and convenient method for modifying LNPs with antibodies using the CLick reaction on the Interface of the nanoParticle (CLIP). The CLIP approach was faster and more versatile than the conventional method using amide coupling. As a demonstration, we report on the LEC-targeted siRNA delivery by using antibody-modified LNPs both in vitro and in vivo. The method used for the modification of LNPs is highly promising and has the potential for expanding the LNP-based delivery of nucleic acids in the future.

    The blood–brain barrier (BBB), which is comprised of brain capillary endothelial cells, plays a pivotal role in the transport of drugs from the blood to the brain. Therefore, an analysis of proteins in the endothelial cells, such as transporters and tight junction proteins, which contribute to BBB function, is important for the development of therapeutics for the treatment of brain diseases. However, gene transfection into the vascular endothelial cells of the BBB is fraught with difficulties, even in vitro. We report herein on the development of lipid nanoparticles (LNPs), in which mRNA is encapsulated in a nano-sized capsule composed of a pH-activated and reductive environment-responsive lipid-like material (ssPalm). We evaluated the efficiency of mRNA delivery into non-polarized human brain capillary endothelial cells, hCMEC/D3 cells. The ssPalm LNPs permitted marker genes (GFP) to be transferred into nearly 100% of the cells, with low toxicity in higher concentration. A proteomic analysis indicated that the ssPalm-LNP had less effect on global cell signaling pathways than a Lipofectamine MessengerMAX/GFP-encoding mRNA complex (LFN), a commercially available transfection reagent, even at higher mRNA concentrations.

    Blood-brain barrier (BBB)-permeable middle- or macromolecules (middle/macromolecules) have recently attracted significant attention as new drug delivery carriers into the human brain via receptor-mediated transcytosis (RMT). During the development process of such carriers, it is necessary to thoroughly evaluate their human BBB permeability levels. In such evaluations, our recently established human immortalized cell-based multicellular spheroidal BBB models (hiMCS-BBB models) have shown high potential. However, the specifics of those capabilities have yet to be elucidated. Therefore, in this study, we characterize the ability of the hiMCS-BBB models to evaluate RMT-mediated BBB penetration properties of middle/macromolecules. More specifically, we began by validating transferrin receptor (TfR)-mediated RMT functionalities using transferrin in the hiMCS-BBB models and then examined the BBB permeability levels of MEM189 antibodies (known BBB-permeable anti-TfR antibodies). The obtained results showed that, as with the case of transferrin, temperature-dependent uptake of MEM189 antibodies was observed in the hiMCS-BBB models, and the extent of that uptake increased in a time-dependent manner until reaching a plateau after around 2 h. To further expand the evaluation applicability of the models, we also examined the BBB permeability levels of the recently developed SLS cyclic peptide and observed that peptide uptake was also temperature-dependent. To summarize, our results show that the hiMCS-BBB models possess the ability to evaluate the RMT-mediated BBB-permeable properties of antibodies and peptides and thus have the potential to provide valuable tools for use in the exploration and identification of middle/macromolecules showing excellent BBB permeability levels, thereby contributing powerfully to the development of new drug delivery carriers for transporting drugs into the human brain.

    A cellular assay for evaluating the binding and internalization of biologics using primary human liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSEC) is not readily available, since human LSEC generally lose their receptor expression and internalization activity during the purifying processes and cell culturing. Here, we propose a novel cell-based assay using human liver non-parenchymal cells (NPC) as an alternative method using LSEC. To identify the LSEC population, NPC were stained with CD31 and CD45, and analyzed by flow cytometry. The expression of Fc gamma receptor IIB (FcγRIIB), one of the LSEC markers was detected in the CD31-positive and the CD45-negative fractions. The concentration-dependent binding and internalization of the anti-FcγRIIB antibody was also quantified in the LSEC fraction in human NPC. Saturated binding and internalization curves were obtained for the anti-FcγRIIB antibody. In the case of the negative control antibody, however, binding and internalization were negligible. The findings reported here indicate that cell-based assays using fresh human liver NPC will be useful for evaluating the binding and internalization of biologics as well as for determining pharmacokinetic parameters.

    Toxoplasma gondii affects the health of humans and livestock and causes severe illness in the fetus and immunocompromised individuals. Because of the high incidence and severe consequences of T. gondii infection, a safe and suitable vaccine is needed. We found that lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) consisting of a series of functional materials prepared with vitamin E, such as SS-cleavable and pH-activated lipid-like materials (ssPalmE), were a safe and efficient way to develop next-generation DNA vaccines. In this study, we prepared ssPalmE-LNP to encapsulate pCpG-free-T. gondii dense granule protein 15 DNA (ssPalmE-LNPTgGRA15). Following a challenge infection with avirulent PLK strain of T. gondii, the mice immunized with ssPalmE-LNPTgGRA15 had a significantly higher survival rate and lower clinical scores compared with unimmunized and ssPalmE-LNPnon-coding-immunized mice. Immunization of mice with the ssPalmE-LNPTgGRA15 led to a significantly higher production of specific IgG1 and IG2c antibodies compared with unimmunized and ssPalmE-LNPnon-coding-immunized mice, while there was no statistically significant difference in the concentration of serum interferon-gamma at the acute stage of the infection. These findings indicate that ssPalmE-LNP is an effective cargo for the transportation of DNA vaccines for protozoan infections. To explore the mechanism of protective immunity induced by ssPalmE-LNPTgGRA15, further immunological study is needed in the future.

    (1) Background: T cells are important target cells, since they exert direct cytotoxic effects on infected/malignant cells, and affect the regulatory functions of other immune cells in a target antigen-specific manner. One of the current approaches for modifying the function of T cells is gene transfection by viral vectors. However, the insertion of the exogenous DNA molecules into the genome is attended by the risk of mutagenesis, especially when a transposon-based gene cassette is used. Based on this scenario, the transient expression of proteins by an in vitro-transcribed messenger RNA (IVT-mRNA) has become a subject of interest. The use of lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) for the transfection of IVT-mRNA is one of the more promising strategies for introducing exogenous genes. In this study, we report on the development of LNPs with transfection efficiencies that are comparable to that for electroporation in a T cell line (Jurkat cells). (2) Methods: Transfection efficiency was improved by optimizing the phospholipids and polyethylene glycol (PEG)-conjugated lipid components. (3) Results: Modification of the lipid composition resulted in the 221-fold increase in luciferase activity compared to a previously optimized formulation. Such a high transfection activity was due to the efficient uptake by clathrin/dynamin-dependent endocytosis and the relatively efficient escape into the cytoplasm at an early stage of endocytosis.

    The sentinel lymph node (SLN) is the first lymph node into which lymphatic fluid from tumor tissues flows. The development of a highly sensitive probe for detecting SLNs is desired for the lymph node dissection through intraoperative biopsy. We have previously shown that anionic liposomes tend to accumulate in lymph nodes and that macrophage uptake of liposomes contributes to their accumulation. In the present study, we found that among anionic lipids, phosphatidylserine (PS)-containing liposomes were substantially taken up by macrophages. We identified a new lipid composition to improve the SNL-selectivity of liposome accumulation based on Design-of-Experiment. The optimized PS-containing particles were more selectively accumulate to SLN lymph nodes than existing imaging agents indocyanine green. These results indicate the effectiveness of PS-containing anionic particles in SLN imaging.

    The second messenger 2'3'-cyclic-GMP-AMP (cGAMP) is thought to be transmitted from brain carcinomas to astrocytes via gap junctions, which functions to promote metastasis in the brain parenchyma. In the current study, we established a method to introduce cGAMP into astrocytes, which simulates the state of astrocytes that have been invaded by cGAMP around tumors. Astrocytes incorporating cGAMP were analyzed by metabolomics, which demonstrated that cGAMP increased glutamate production and astrocyte secretion. The same trend was observed for γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA). Conversely, glutamine production and secretion were decreased by cGAMP treatment. Due to the fundamental role of astrocytes in regulation of the glutamine-glutamate cycle, such metabolic changes may represent a potential mechanism and therapeutic target for alteration of the central nervous system (CNS) environment and the malignant transformation of brain carcinomas.

    In vitro blood-brain barrier (BBB) models are essential research tools for use in developing brain-targeted drugs and understanding the physiological and pathophysiological functions of the BBB. To develop BBB models with better functionalities, three-dimensional (3D) culture methods have gained significant attention as a promising approach. In this study, we report on the development of a human conditionally immortalized cell-based multicellular spheroidal BBB (hiMCS-BBB) model. After being seeded into non-attachment culture wells, HASTR/ci35 (astrocytes) and HBPC/ci37 cells (brain pericytes) self-assemble to form a spheroid core that is then covered with an outer monolayer of HBMEC/ci18 cells (brain microvascular endothelial cells). The results of immunocytochemistry showed the protein expression of several cellular junction and BBB-enriched transporter genes in HBMEC/ci18 cells of the spheroid model. The permeability assays showed that the hiMCS-BBB model exhibited barrier functions against the penetration of dextran (5 and 70 kDa) and rhodamine123 (a P-glycoprotein substrate) into the core. On the other hand, facilitation of 2-(N-[7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazol-4-yl]amino)-2-deoxyglucose (2-NBDG; a fluorescent glucose analog) uptake was observed in the hiMCS-BBB model. Furthermore, tumor necrosis factor-alpha treatment elicited an inflammatory response in HBMEC/ci18 cells, thereby suggesting that BBB inflammation can be recapitulated in the hiMCS-BBB model. To summarize, we have developed an hiMCS-BBB model that possesses fundamental BBB properties, which can be expected to provide a useful and highly accessible experimental platform for accelerating various BBB studies.

    It is important to predict drug-drug interactions via inhibition of intestinal cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A) which is a determinant of bioavailability of orally administered CYP3A substrates. However, inhibitory effects of macrolide antibiotics on CYP3A-mediated metabolism are not entirely identical between humans and rodents.We investigated the effects of macrolide antibiotics, clarithromycin and erythromycin, on in vitro and in vivo metabolism of triazolam, a CYP3A substrate, in CYP3A-humanised mice generated by using a mouse artificial chromosome vector carrying a human CYP3A gene.Metabolic activities of triazolam were inhibited by macrolide antibiotics in liver and intestine microsomes of CYP3A-humanised mice.The area under the plasma concentration-time curve ratios of 4-hydroxytriazolam to triazolam after oral dosing of triazolam were significantly decreased by multiple administration of macrolide antibiotics. The plasma concentrations ratios of α-hydroxytriazolam and 4-hydroxytriazolam to triazolam in portal blood were significantly decreased by multiple administration of clarithromycin in CYP3A-humanised mice.These results suggest that intestinal CYP3A activity was inhibited by macrolide antibiotics in CYP3A-humanised mice in vitro and in vivo. The plasma concentrations of triazolam and its metabolites in the portal blood of CYP3A-humanised mice would be useful for direct evaluation of intestinal CYP3A-mediated drug-drug interactions.

    Evaluation of the binding and uptake of an antibody in liver non-parenchymal cells (NPC), including liver sinusoidal endothelial cells, is important for revealing its pharmacokinetic (PK) behavior, since NPC has important roles in eliminating an antibody from the blood via the Fc fragment of IgG receptor IIB (FcγRIIB). However, there is currently no in vitro quantitative assay using NPC. This study reports on the development of a cell-based assay for evaluating the binding and uptake of such an antibody using liver NPC of mice and monkeys. In mice, the FcγRIIB-expressing cells were identified in the CD146-positive and CD45-negative fraction by flow cytometry. A titration assay was performed to determine the PK parameters, and the obtained parameter was comparable to that determined by the fitting of the in vivo PK. This approach was also extended to NPC from monkeys. The concentration-dependent binding and uptake was measured to determine the PK parameters using monkey NPC, the FcγRIIB-expressing fraction of which was identified by CD31 and CD45. The findings presented herein demonstrate that the in vitro liver NPC assay using flow cytometry is a useful tool to determine the binding and uptake of biologics and to predict the PK.

    The treatment of sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) may be achieved via the application of a cochlear implant (CI) that allows the electrical stimulation of spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs). Nevertheless, the efficacy of CIs is limited by the degeneration of SGNs following SNHL. Although the application of exogenous neurotrophic factors has been reported to decrease SGN degeneration, non-invasive targeted drug delivery systems are required to achieve effective results. In this study, an SS-cleavable proton-activated lipid-like material [ssPalm; a neutral lipid nanoparticle (LNP)], was loaded with mRNA, and the efficacy of this material as a delivery system was investigated. Our results showed that LNPssPalm carrying brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) mRNA was suitable for the treatment of inner ear diseases, preventing the degeneration of SGNs. In conclusion, this modern nanotechnology-based bioconjugation system, LNPssPalm, is a potential non-invasive targeted therapy allowing the delivering biomaterials to specific structures within the inner ear for the treatment of SHNL.

    Metastasis of cancer cells to lymph nodes (LN) is a common modality of metastasis in clinical settings, but the mechanisms involved in lymphatic metastasis remain unclear compared to hematogenous metastasis to bones and the brain. To elucidate the molecular mechanisms responsible for melanoma LN metastasis, we first generated LN metastasis-prone melanoma cells (C8161F2) by the sequential in vivo transplantation of parental melanoma cells (C8161F0). Although the in vitro/in vivo proliferative potential of these melanoma cells were similar, the metastatic potential of the C8161F2 for LNs was significantly enhanced. We then conducted a proteomics analysis to identify the proteins and pathways that contribute to LN metastasis. We identified six proteins (three: up-regulated and three: down-regulated) whose expressions were statistically significantly different by more than 2-fold in the two cell groups. Some of these genes are responsible for the activation of the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β)-related pathway, a well-known inducer of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). In addition, a gene ontology analysis revealed that the enhanced cell-cell adhesion appears to be involved in lymphatic metastasis. In conclusion, we established highly lymphatic metastatic melanoma cells, which would be valuable for studies of the molecular mechanisms responsible for lymphatic metastasis.

    Despite the promising anticancer effects of immune checkpoint inhibitors, their low objective response rate remains to be resolved; thus, combination therapies have been investigated. We investigated the combination of an anti-programmed cell death 1 (aPD-1) monoclonal antibody with the knockdown of vascular endothelial factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2) on tumor endothelial cells to overcome resistance to immune checkpoint inhibitors and improve the objective response rate. The successful delivery of small interfering RNA to tumor endothelial cells was achieved by RGD peptide-modified lipid nanoparticles composed of a novel, pH-sensitive, and biodegradable ssPalmO-Phe. RGD-modified lipid nanoparticles efficiently induced the knockdown of VEGFR2 in tumor endothelial cells (TECs), which induced vascular normalization. The combination of a PD-1 monoclonal antibody with Vegfr2 knockdown enhanced CD8+ T cell infiltration into tumors and successfully suppressed tumor growth and improved response rate compared with monotherapy. Our combination approach provides a promising strategy to improve therapeutic outcomes in immune checkpoint inhibitor-resistant cancers.

    In vivo pharmacokinetics (PK) studies using mice and monkeys are the main approaches for evaluating and predicting the PK of antibodies, and there is a strong demand for methods that do not require animal experiments. In this work, we focused on quantitatively predicting the nonlinear PK of an antibody based on cell-based assays. An anti-mouse Fc gamma receptor IIB antibody was used as a model antibody. To determine the PK parameters related to nonspecific elimination in vivo, the plasma concentration profile at 100 mg/kg, at which target-specific clearance is saturated, was analyzed by a 2-compartment model. To estimate the parameters related to target-specific elimination, the Michaelis-Menten constant (Km) and the maximum elimination rate (Vmax) were determined by an uptake assay using Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells expressing the target receptor. Finally, the integration of all of these parameters permitted the PK to be predicted at doses ranging from 1 to 100 mg/kg regardless of whether target-specific clearance was saturated or nonsaturated. The findings presented herein show that in vitro assays using target-expressing cells are useful tools for obtaining PK parameters and predicting PK profiles and, in some cases, eliminate the need for in vivo PK studies using experimental animals.

    Because angiogenesis is a major contributor to cancer progression and metastasis, it is an attractive target for cancer therapy. Although a diverse number of small compounds for anti-angiogenic therapy have been developed, severe adverse effects commonly occur, since small compounds can affect not only tumor endothelial cells (TECs), but also normal endothelial cells. This low selectivity for TECs has motivated researchers to develop alternate types of drug delivery systems (DDSs). In this review, we summarize the current state of knowledge concerning the delivery of nano DDSs to TECs. Their payloads range from small compounds to nucleic acids. Perspectives regarding new therapeutic targets are also mentioned.

    Brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMEC), together with astrocytes and pericytes, form the blood-brain barrier (BBB) that strictly restricts drug penetration into the brain. Therefore, in central nervous system drug development, the establishment of an in vitro human BBB model for use in studies estimating the in vivo human BBB permeability of drug candidates has long been awaited. The current study developed and characterized a human immortalized cell-based BBB triculture model, termed the "hiBBB" model. To set up the hiBBB model, human immortalized BMEC (HBMEC/ci18) were cocultured with human immortalized astrocytes (HASTR/ci35) and brain pericytes (HBPC/ci37) in a transwell system. The trans-endothelial electrical resistance of the hiBBB model was 134.4 ± 5.5 (Ω × cm2), and the efflux ratios of rhodamine123 and dantrolene were 1.72 ± 0.11 and 1.72 ± 0.45, respectively, suggesting that the hiBBB model possesses essential cellular junction and efflux transporter functions. In BBB permeability assays, the mean value of the permeability coefficients (Pe) of BBB permeable compounds (propranolol, pyrilamine, memantine, and diphenhydramine) was 960 × 10-6 cm/s, which was clearly distinguishable from that of BBB nonpermeable compounds (sodium fluorescein and Lucifer yellow, 18 × 10-6 cm/s). Collectively, this study successfully developed the hiBBB model, which exhibits essential BBB functionality. Taking into consideration the high availability of the immortalized cells used in the hiBBB model, our results are expected to become an initial step toward the establishment of a useful human BBB model to investigate drug penetration into the human brain.

    1. To investigate cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A)-mediated metabolism in vivo, plasma concentrations of triazolam (TRZ) are often monitored as a CYP3A marker in CYP3A-humanised mice. However, it has not been determined whether plasma concentrations of TRZ after intravenous administration can reflect hepatic CYP3A activity in CYP3A-humanised mice. 2. Firstly, we investigated the pharmacokinetics of TRZ in wild-type and Cyp3a-knockout (Cyp3a-KO) mice. Plasma concentration profiles of TRZ and α-hydroxy (OH) TRZ were very similar in wild-type and Cyp3a-KO mice. On the other hand, AUC of 4-OH TRZ in Cyp3a-KO mice was significantly lower than that in wild-type mice. Pregnenolone 16α-carbonitrile (PCN) decreased the areas under the plasma concentration-time curves (AUCs) of TRZ and α-OH TRZ in both groups. There was no significant effect of PCN on AUC of 4-OH TRZ in Cyp3a-KO mice. 3. Next, we verified that AUC of 4-OH TRZ in CYP3A-humanised mice was higher than that in Cyp3a-KO mice, although the difference was not significant. 4. In conclusion, plasma concentrations of 4-OH TRZ, but not those of TRZ and α-OH TRZ, might reflect hepatic CYP3A activity in mice in vivo. These results provide important insights for in vivo studies using a CYP3A-humanised model.

    Constitutive androstane receptor (CAR), a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily, is retained as an inactive form phosphorylated at threonine in the cytoplasm of hepatocytes. Upon activation, CAR is dephosphorylated to move into the nucleus and induces the transcription of genes. Thus, nuclear translocation is a key step for CAR activation in hepatocytes. However, this nuclear translocation has not been demonstrated in conventional two-dimensionally-cultured immortalized cell lines such as HepG2, in which CAR spontaneously accumulates in the nucleus. In this study, we showed that treatment with the indirect CAR activator phenobarbital activated transcription of the CYP3A4 gene in three-dimensionally (3D)-cultured HepG2 cells. CAR was retained as its phosphorylated form in the cytoplasm and was translocated to the nucleus in 3D-cultured HepG2 cells in response to treatment with phenobarbital. Moreover, okadaic acid and epidermal growth factor, were found to repress phenobarbital-induced CAR nuclear translocation and subsequent activation of the CYP3A4 gene promoter. These results suggested that 3D-cultured HepG2 cells properly regulated CAR activation as has been observed in hepatocytes.

    The GALA peptide (WEAALAEALAEALAEHLAEALAEALEALAA) was originally designed to induce the destabilization of endosomal membranes based on its ability to undergo a pH-dependent conformational change from a random coil to an α-helix. We recently found that liposomes modified with GALA peptide (GALA-LPs) extensively accumulate in lung endothelial cells (ECs) after intravenous injection. However, the uptake mechanism of GALA-LPs and their ability to reach alveolar epithelium was unclear. We report herein that GALA-LPs are internalized into ECs via a clathrin-mediated pathway. Surprisingly, GALA-LPs had the ability to pass lung ECs and reach other cells through transcytosis. GALA-LPs were taken up by >70% of lung ECs, while they also accumulated in ~30% of type I alveolar epithelium (ATI). GALA-modified gold nanoparticles were detected in ECs, in the basement membrane and in other cells such as ATI, type II alveolar epithelium (ATII) and alveolar macrophages. Consistent with this result, a significant gene knockdown was achieved in lung epithelium cells using GALA-LPs encapsulating anti-podoplanin siRNA. This indicates that GALA-LPs can be used as a carrier for delivering macromolecules to parenchymal as well as to endothelial cells in the lung. Although caveolae are commonly linked to the transendothelial transport of proteins and antibodies, our data indicate that clathrin-mediated endocytosis might also participate in the transcytosis process.

    While the use of in vitro-transcribed mRNA (IVT-mRNA) in therapeutics is a rapidly expanding area, the transfection of the exogenous IVT-mRNA is accompanied by a risk of immune activation. This immunological defense mechanism suppresses cellular translation process and can reduce transfection efficiency to a considerable extent. In the present study, we investigated the in vitro effects of Integrated Stress Response Inhibitor (ISRIB), and dexamethasone, a steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, on the transfection activity of a lipid nanoparticle (LNP) that was composed of ionizable lipids and IVT-mRNA. In the case of transfection to mouse embryonic fibroblast (MEF) cells, ISRIB mainly enhanced the transfection activity at an early stage of transfection (0-6 h). In contrast, dexamethasone caused an increase in transfection activity at intermediate-late stages of transfection (4-48 h). We also investigated the in vivo effects of dexamethasone using an LNP on that the IVT-mRNA and lipid-conjugated dexamethasone (Dex-Pal) were co-loaded. The intravenous administration of the LNP successfully enhanced the protein expression in a mouse liver by up to 6.6-fold. Collectively, the co-delivery of an anti-inflammatory drug is a promising approach for enhancing transfection efficiency of IVT-mRNA.

    An mRNA gene therapy represents a potentially promising therapeutic for curing inflammatory diseases. The transient nature of the gene expression of mRNA would be expected to be beneficial for avoiding undesired side effects. Since the mRNA is a vulnerable molecule, a development of a carrier that can deliver the mRNA to the cytoplasm has a high priority. We report herein on the development of a system for delivering mRNA to the inflammatory lesion in a dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis model. We modulated molecular structures of an ionizable lipid, an SS-cleavable and pH-activated lipid-like material (ssPalm). Among the fatty acids investigated, oleic acid scaffolds (ssPalmO) appeared to be more biocompatible than either myristic acid or linoleic acid scaffolds with the colitis model. The structural modification of the hydrophilic head groups from linear tertiary amines to piperazine rings (ssPalmO-Paz4-C2) resulted in a more than 10-fold higher increasing in the transgene activity in inflammatory colon. The most notable observation is that the transgene activity in the inflammatory colon is significantly higher than that in liver, the major clearance organ of lipid nanoparticles. Collectively, the ssPalmO-Paz4-C2 represents a promising material for the delivery of an mRNA to inflammatory lesions.

    P-glycoprotein (P-gp), encoded by the MDR1 gene in humans and by the Mdr1a/1b genes in rodents, is expressed in numerous tissues and performs as an efflux pump to limit the distribution and absorption of many drugs. Owing to species differences of P-gp between humans and rodents, it is difficult to predict the impact of P-gp on pharmacokinetics and the tissue distribution of P-gp substrates in humans from the results of animal experiments. Therefore, we generated a novel P-gp humanized mouse model by using a mouse artificial chromosome (MAC) vector [designated human MDR1-MAC (hMDR1-MAC) mice]. The results showed that hMDR1 mRNA was expressed in various tissues of hMDR1-MAC mice. Furthermore, the expression of human P-gp was detected in the brain capillary fraction and plasma membrane fraction of intestinal epithelial cells isolated from hMDR1-MAC mice, although the expression levels of intestinal P-gp were extremely low. Thus, we evaluated the function of human P-gp at the blood-brain barrier of hMDR1-MAC mice. The brain-to-plasma ratios of P-gp substrates in hMDR1-MAC mice were much lower than those in Mdr1a/1b-knockout mice, and the brain-to-plasma ratio of paclitaxel was significantly increased by pretreatment with a P-gp inhibitor in hMDR1-MAC mice. These results indicated that the hMDR1-MAC mice are the first P-gp humanized mice expressing functional human P-gp at the blood-brain barrier. This mouse is a promising model with which to evaluate species differences of P-gp between humans and mice in vivo and to estimate the brain distribution of drugs in humans while taking into account species differences of P-gp.

    Cytoplasmic DNA triggers cellular immunity via activating the stimulator of interferon genes pathway. Since DNA is degradable and membrane impermeable, delivery system would permit cytoplasmic delivery by destabilizing the endosomal membrane for the use as an adjuvant. Herein, we report on the development of a plasmid DNA (pDNA)-encapsulating lipid nanoparticle (LNP). The structural components include an SS-cleavable and pH-activated lipid-like material that mounts vitamin E as a hydrophobic scaffold, and dual sensing motifs that are responsive to the intracellular environment (ssPalmE). The pDNA-encapsulating LNP (ssPalmE-LNP) induced a high interferon-β production in Raw 264.7 cells. The subcutaneous injection of ssPalmE-LNP strongly enhanced antigen-specific cytotoxic T cell activity. The ssPalmE-LNP treatment efficiently induced antitumor effects against E.G7-OVA tumor and B16-F10 melanoma metastasis. Furthermore, when combined with an anti-programmed death 1 antibody, an extensive therapeutic antitumor effect was observed. Therefore, the ssPalmE-LNP is a promising carrier of adjuvants for cancer immunotherapy.

    Cancer-type organic anion transporting polypeptide 1B3 (Ct-OATP1B3) has been identified as a cancer-specific transcript in various solid cancers, including colorectal cancer. Given its excellent cancer-specific expression profile, we hypothesized that Ct-OATP1B3 could represent a promising target for cancer-specific expression of the suicide gene, herpes simplex virus 1 thymidine kinase (HSV-tk), via a spliceosome-mediated RNA trans-splicing (SMaRT) approach. SMaRT technology is used to recombine two RNA molecules to generate a chimeric transcript. In this study, we engineered an RNA trans-splicing molecule carrying a translation-defective HSV-tk sequence (RTM44), which was capable of inducing its own trans-splicing to the desired Ct-OATP1B3 pre-mRNA target. RTM44 expression in LS180 cells resulted in generation of Ct-OATP1B3/HSV-tk fusion mRNA. A functional translation start site contributed by the target pre-mRNA restored HSV-tk protein expression, rendering LS180 cells sensitive to ganciclovir treatment in vitro and in xenografted mice. The observed effects are ascribed to accurate and efficient trans-splicing, as they were absent in cells carrying a splicing-deficient mutant of RTM44. Collectively, our data highlights Ct-OATP1B3 as an ideal target for the HSV-tk SMaRT suicide system, which opens up new translational avenues for Ct-OATP1B3-targeted cancer therapy.

    While pericytes wrap around microvascular endothelial cells throughout the human body, their highest coverage rate is found in the brain. Brain pericytes actively contribute to various brain functions, including the development and stabilization of the blood-brain barrier (BBB), tissue regeneration, and brain inflammation. Accordingly, detailed characterization of the functional nature of brain pericytes is important for understanding the mechanistic basis of brain physiology and pathophysiology. Herein, we report on the development of a new human brain pericyte cell line, hereafter referred to as the human brain pericyte/conditionally immortalized clone 37 (HBPC/ci37). Developed via the cell conditionally immortalization method, these cells exhibited excellent proliferative ability at 33 °C. However, when cultured at 37 °C, HBPC/ci37 cells showed a differentiated phenotype that was marked by morphological alterations and increases in several pericyte-enriched marker mRNA levels, such as platelet-derived growth factor receptor β. It was also found that HBPC/ci37 cells possessed the facilitative ability of in vitro BBB formation and differentiation into a neuronal lineage. Furthermore, HBPC/ci37 cells exhibited the typical "reactive" features of brain pericytes in response to pro-inflammatory cytokines. To summarize, our results clearly demonstrate that HBPC/ci37 cells possess the ability to perform several key brain pericyte functions while also showing the capacity for extensive and continuous proliferation. Based on these findings, it can be expected that, as a unique human brain pericyte model, HBPC/ci37 cells have the potential to contribute to significant advances in the understanding of human brain pericyte physiology and pathophysiology.

    Gene therapy is a promising strategy for curing certain types of brain diseases. Supplementation of therapeutic proteins such as aromatic amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) or nerve growth factor (NGF) have been reported to be successful examples of such treatments. However, there are safety concerns because these systems are based on virus-based gene vectors. A safe and efficient artificial carrier is thus urgently needed as an alternative. In this study, an mRNA based artificial gene carrier was introduced into the mouse brain via intracerebroventricular administration. As a carrier, a lipid nanoparticle (LNP) composed of environmentally sensitive lipid-like materials called an SS-cleavable proton-activated lipid-like material is used. The apolipoprotein E mediated cellular uptake of the lipid nanoparticles is one of the key features for its superior and homogeneous transfection activity compared to commercially available transfection reagents in both in vitro and in vivo situations. Immunostaining of brain specimens suggested that exogenous proteins can be introduced into neuronal cells as well as astrocytes using the mRNA-based gene carrier. This cannot be achieved using DNA-based artificial gene carriers. The findings suggest that a combination of an mRNA and a lipid based delivery system have great promise as a platform for the treatment of brain disorders.

    Liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs), which are specialized endothelial cells that line liver sinusoids, have been reported to participate in a variety of liver functions, such as blood macromolecule clearance and factor VIII production. In addition, LSECs play crucial roles in liver regeneration following acute liver injury, as well as the development and progression of liver diseases or drug-induced hepatotoxicity. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying their roles remain mostly unknown. Therefore, in order to contribute to the clarification of those mechanisms, herein we report on the development of a new immortalized human LSEC (HLSEC) line. To produce this cell line, two immortalized genes were introduced into the primary HLSECs, which eventually resulted in the establishment of the HLSEC/conditionally immortalized, clone-J (HLSEC/ciJ). Consistent with the two-immortalized gene expression, HLSEC/ciJ showed excellent proliferation activity. Additionally, the results of gene expression analyses showed that several LSEC (as well as pan-endothelial) marker mRNAs and proteins were clearly expressed in HLSEC/ciJ. Furthermore, we found that adherence junction proteins were localized at the cell border in the HLSEC/ciJ monolayer, and that the cells exhibited a tube-like structure formation property. Taken together, the results obtained thus far indicate that we have successfully immortalized HLSECs, resulting in creation of HLSEC/ciJ, a cell line that possesses infinite proliferation ability while retaining possession of at least some HLSEC features. We believe that the HLSEC/ciJ have the potential to provide a valuable and unlimited alternative source of HLSECs for use in liver/LSEC physiology/pathophysiology, pharmacology, and toxicology studies.

    Cancer-type organic anion transporting polypeptide 1B3 (Ct-OATP1B3) mRNA is a variant isoform of the liver-type OATP1B3. Because Ct-OATP1B3 mRNA shows an excellent cancer-specific expression profile in colorectal cancer (CRC), and that its expression levels are associated with CRC prognosis, it holds the potential to become a useful CRC detection and diagnosis biomarker. While the potential is currently justified only at the tissue level, if existence of Ct-OATP1B3 mRNA in CRC-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) is validated, the findings could enhance its translational potential as a CRC detection and diagnosis biomarker. Therefore, this study aims at proving that Ct-OATP1B3 mRNA exists in CRC-derived EVs, and can be detected using serum specimens. To examine the possibility of Ct-OATP1B3 mRNA being existed in extracellular milieu, we isolated EVs from the human CRC (HCT116, HT-29, and SW480) cell lines, and prepared their cDNAs. The RT-PCR results showed that Ct-OATP1B3 mRNA was clearly present in EVs derived from the human CRC cell lines. Then, in order to further explore the possibility that Ct-OATP1B3 mRNA in CRC-derived EVs can be detected in serum, we isolated serum EVs derived from human CRC xenograft mice, and then performed RT-PCR. The results showed that Ct-OATP1B3 mRNA could be found in all serum EV and CRC tissue samples of the mice examined. Collectively, our findings, which show that Ct-OATP1B3 mRNA exists in EVs and can be detected in (at least) mouse serum, strengthen the potential use of Ct-OATP1B3 mRNA as a serum-based CRC biomarker.

    Carboxylesterase 2 (CES2), which is a member of the serine hydrolase superfamily, is primarily expressed in the human small intestine, where it plays an important role in the metabolism of ester-containing drugs. Therefore, to facilitate continued progress in ester-containing drug development, it is crucial to evaluate how CES2-mediated hydrolysis influences its intestinal permeability characteristics. Human colon carcinoma Caco-2 cells have long been widely used in drug permeability studies as an enterocyte model. However, they are not suitable for ester-containing drug permeability studies due to the fact that Caco-2 cells express CES1 (which is not expressed in human enterocytes) but do not express CES2. To resolve this problem, we created a new Caco-2 cell line carrying the human small intestine-type CES expression profile. We began by introducing short-hairpin RNA for CES1 mRNA knockdown into Caco-2 cells to generate CES1-decifient Caco-2 cells (Caco-2CES1KD cells). Then, we developed Caco-2CES1KD cells that stably express CES2 (CES2/Caco-2CES1KD cells) and their control Mock/Caco-2CES1KD cells. The results of a series of functional expression experiments confirmed that CES2-specific activity, along with CES2 mRNA and protein expression, were clearly detected in our CES2/Caco-2CES1KD cells. Furthermore, we also confirmed that CES2/Caco-2CES1KD cells retained their tight junction formation property as well as their drug efflux transporter functions. Collectively, based on our results clearly showing that CES2/Caco-2CES1KD cells carry the human intestinal-type CES expression profile, while concomitantly retaining their barrier properties, it can be expected that this cell line will provide a promising in vitro model for ester-containing drug permeability studies.

    Systems for delivering nucleic acids are now fundamental technologies for realizing personalized medicine. Among the various nucleic acid delivery systems that are currently available, lipid-nanoparticles (LNPs) that contain short interfering RNA (siRNA) have been extensively investigated for clinical applications. LNPs are generally prepared by an alcohol dilution method. In this method, it is necessary to remove the alcohol and then concentrate the LNP sample before they can be used. In this study, we report on the development of an "alcohol dilution-lyophilization method" for preparing siRNA-encapsulating LNPs. This method involves the use of a freeze-drying (lyophilization) method to remove the residual alcohol and to simultaneously concentrate the preparation. At first, the compositions of cryoprotectants and polyethylene glycol (PEG)-lipids that were used were optimized from the point of view of particle stabilization. A combination of sucrose and 1-(monomethoxy polyethyleneglycol5000)-2,3-dimyristoylglycerol (DMG-PEG5000) was found to have the most efficient cryoprotective activity for the LNPs. The knockdown efficiency of the LNP prepared by the alcohol dilution-lyophilization method was comparable to that of an LNP prepared by the conventional ultrafiltration method.

    An innovative drug delivery technology is urgently needed to satisfy unmet medical needs in treating various brain disorders. As a fundamental carrier for plasmid DNA or nucleic acids, we developed a liposomal nanoparticle (multifunctional envelope-type nano device [MEND]) containing a proton-ionizable amino lipid (YSK-MEND). Here we report on the impact of apolipoprotein E (ApoE) modification on the function of YSK-MEND in terms of targeting brain cells. The cellular uptake and function of YSK-MEND encapsulating short interference RNA or plasmid DNA were significantly improved as a result of ApoE modification in mouse neuron-derived cell lines (Neuro-2a and CAD). Intracerebroventricular administration of ApoE-modified YSK-MEND (ApoE/YSK-MEND) encapsulating plasmid DNA also resulted in higher transgene expression in comparison with YSK-MEND that was not modified with ApoE. Moreover, observation of fluorescence-labeled ApoE/YSK-MEND and expression of mCherry (fluorescence protein) derived from plasmid DNA indicated that this carrier might be useful for delivering and conferring transgene expression in neural stem cells and/or neural progenitor cells. Thus, this system may be a useful tool for the treatment of neurodegenerative disease.

    DNA vaccines are a new-generation vaccines that elicit an immunological response against a wide-variety of antigens with frequent mutations. However, an effective non-viral vector for genetically engineered DNA to dendritic cells is yet to be developed. We previously reported that an octaarginine (R8)-modified tetra-lamellar multi-functional envelope-type nano device (R8-T-MEND) increases transfection efficiency in dendritic cell cultures (JAWS II). The critical structural elements of the R8-T-MEND are a DNA-polycation condensed core coated with two nuclear membrane-fusogenic inner envelopes, and two endosome-fusogenic outer envelopes. While the gene expression was drastically enhanced by R8-T-MEND, antigen presentation using an epitope-encoding plasmid DNA remains an obstacle for future non-viral vectors in DNA vaccinations. In the present study, we upgraded the function of R8-T-MEND by improving the membrane-fusion processes with endosome- and nuclear membranes by incorporating the KALA peptide, and by reducing the charge ratio (+/-), in an attempt to accelerate intra-nuclear decondensation. The resulting KALA-modified T-MEND (R8/KALA-T-MEND) showed an approximately 20-fold higher transgene expression compared with the conventional R8-T-MEND in JAWS II, and exceeded that of Lipofectamine PLUS, a commercially available transfection reagent. Furthermore, significant antigen presentation of a specific epitope (SIINFEKL) was observed for the R8/KALA-T-MEND but was not detected for the conventional T-MEND or Lipofectamine PLUS when an ovalbumin (OVA)-encoding plasmid DNA was transfected. It thus appears that the R8/KALA-T-MEND has the potential for use as a vector in DNA vaccinations.

    Recent studies indicate that controlling the nuclear decondensation and intra-nuclear localization of plasmid DNA (pDNA) would result in an increased transfection efficiency. In the present study, we established a technology for imaging the nuclear condensation/decondensation status of pDNA in nuclear subdomains using fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between quantum dot (QD)-labeled pDNA as donor, and rhodamine-labeled polycations as acceptor. The FRET-occurring pDNA/polycation particle was encapsulated in a nuclear delivery system; a tetra-lamellar multifunctional envelope-type nano device (T-MEND), designed to overcome the endosomal membrane and nuclear membrane via step-wise fusion. Nuclear subdomains (i.e. heterochromatin and euchromatin) were distinguished by Hoechst33342 staining. Thereafter, Z-series of confocal images were captured by confocal laser scanning microscopy. pDNA in condensation/decondensation status in heterochromatin or euchromatin were quantified based on the pixel area of the signals derived from the QD and rhodamine. The results obtained indicate that modulation of the supra-molecular structure of polyrotaxane (DMAE-ss-PRX), a condenser that is cleaved in a reductive environment, conferred euchromatin-preferred decondensation. This represents the first demonstration of the successful control of condensation/decondensation in specific nuclear sub-domain via the use of an artificial DNA condenser.

    A novel strategy for gene delivery using biocleavable polyrotaxanes, in which dimethylaminoethyl-modified alpha-cyclodextrins (DMAE-alpha-CDs) are threaded onto a poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) chain capped with benzyloxycarbonyl-L-tyrosine via disulfide linkages (DMAE-SS-PRX), involves the formation of a stable polyion complex (polyplex) against a counter polyanion and the intracellular plasmid DNA (pDNA) release from the polyplex accompanied by the supramolecular dissociation of DMAE-SS-PRXs. In this study, we prepared biocleavable polyrotaxanes with different numbers of threading alpha-CD and amino (DMAE) groups to enhance the transfection activity of DMAE-SS-PRXs. 29DMAE-alpha18-SS-PRX, in which the numbers of alpha-CD molecules and amino groups were 18 and 29 respectively, exhibited a high transfection activity compared with other PRXs. The transfection activity of DMAE-SS-PRXs seems to be related to the efficacy of pDNA release from those polyplexes, which was controlled by the number of alpha-CD and/or amino groups in the polyrotaxane carrier. Most of the DMAE-SS-PRX polyplexes released the pDNA only in the presence of both 10 mM DTT and of the counter-polyanion, as expected, except for 14DMAE-alpha18-SS-PRX, which released pDNA in the absence of dextran sulfate once the DTT had been added to the polyplex solution. The transfection activity of 14DMAE-alpha18-SS-PRX was significantly lower than that of 29DMAE-alpha18-SS-PRX regardless of the above features. Confocal laser scanning microscopic (CLSM) observation suggested that the specific result for 14DMAE-alpha18-SS-PRX might be due to a premature release of pDNA from the most dissociative 14DMAE-alpha18-SS-PRX polyplex in the cytosol. Therefore, transfection activity seems to be related to an appropriate timing of pDNA release.

    Mitochondria are the principal producers of energy in higher cells. Mitochondrial dysfunction is implicated in a variety of human diseases, including cancer and neurodegenerative disorders. Effective medical therapies for such diseases will ultimately require targeted delivery of therapeutic proteins or nucleic acids to the mitochondria, which will be achieved through innovations in the nanotechnology of intracellular trafficking. Here we describe a liposome-based carrier that delivers its macromolecular cargo to the mitochondrial interior via membrane fusion. These liposome particles, which we call MITO-Porters, carry octaarginine surface modifications to stimulate their entry into cells as intact vesicles (via macropinocytosis). We identified lipid compositions for the MITO-Porter which promote both its fusion with the mitochondrial membrane and the release of its cargo to the intra-mitochondrial compartment in living cells. Thus, the MITO-Porter holds promise as an efficacious system for the delivery of both large and small therapeutic molecules into mitochondria.

    Intracellular trafficking is a determining factor in the transgene expression efficiency of gene vectors. In the present study, the mechanism of the cellular uptake of octaarginine (R8)-modified liposomes, when introduced at 37 degrees C and 4 degrees C, was investigated in living cells. Compared with 37 degrees C, the uptake of R8-liposomes was only slightly reduced at 4 degrees C. Dual imaging of liposomes and plasma membranes revealed that R8-liposomes were internalized by vesicular transport, and partially escaped to the cytosol at the perinuclear region at 37 degrees C. When introduced at 4 degrees C, intracellular liposomes were observed within a specific region close to the plasma membrane, and internalization of the plasma membrane was completely inhibited. Therefore, at 4 degrees C, R8-liposomes appear to enter cells via unique pathway, which is separate and distinct from energy-dependent vesicular transport. The subsequent nuclear delivery of encapsulated pDNA, when introduced at 4 degrees C, was less prominent compared with those introduced at 37 degrees C. Collectively, these findings demonstrate that a vesicular transport-independent pathway is responsible for the cellular uptake of liposomes. In addition, the uptake route is closely related to the subsequent nuclear delivery process; the operation of an endogenous vesicular sorting system is advantageous for the nuclear delivery of pDNA.

    We introduced a new concept "Programmed Packaging" for the rational development of non viral gene delivery system. There are many non-viral gene delivery system, however, their utility is limited in the in vitro experiments. The major reason is considered that it is difficult to package many functional devices into a nanoparticle. The new concept which we introduce here is named as Programmed Packaging, which is composed of the strategy to targeting, molecular design of functional devices to overcome barriers, and assembly technique to package them into a nanoparticle. In this article, we explain this concept and provide newly developed gene delivery systems based on this concept.

    This protocol provides a method for synthesizing a biocleavable polyrotaxane/plasmid DNA (pDNA) polyplex and for using it to deliver pDNA into cell nuclei. The biocleavable polyrotaxane is synthesized in four steps: (i) introduction of disulfide linkages at both terminals of PEG, (ii) preparation of an inclusion complex between disulfide-containing PEG and alpha-cyclodextrins (alpha-CDs), (iii) synthesis of polyrotaxane and (iv) modification of alpha-CDs in the polyrotaxane with dimethylethylenediamine. A polyplex of pDNA with the polyrotaxane is formed when the two compounds are dissolved together in a phosphate buffer. Subcellular localization of rhodamine-labeled pDNA in fluorescently labeled organelles is quantified by Z-series of confocal images captured by confocal laser scanning microscopy. Significant amounts of pDNA delivered to the nucleus can be expected as well as high transfection activity of the polyplex. This protocol can be completed in 23-32 d.

    We recently found that octaarginine modified liposomes (R8-Lip) can be efficiently internalized by cultured cells. The purpose of the present study was to quantitatively determine the effect of R8-density on the tissue distribution of R8-Lip in mice, using their clearance as an index. R8 was introduced in the form of stearylated R8 (STR-R8). The liposomes were composed of cholesterol and egg phosphatidylcholine and were labeled with [(3)H]cholesteryl hexadecyl ether. Various densities of R8 (3%, 10% and 30%) containing liposomes were prepared with a diameter of approximately 70-80 nm. The tissue distribution of R8-Lip was determined after their i.v. administration into mice and the effect of R8-density on tissue distribution was compared with uptake clearance, the calculated tissue distribution divided by the area under the blood concentration-time course. As results, R8-Lip were more rapidly eliminated from circulating blood and distributed to many tissues, especially liver depending on the R8-density. However, the tissue uptake clearance represented similar value to that of positively charge liposomes. Based on these results, we conclude that the R8-dependent increase in R8-Lip in various tissues tested indicates that positive charge, but not PTD function derived from R8 predominantly responsible for the enhancement of tissue distribution. Therefore, it is suggested that topology control of R8 is important to exhibit the PTD function.

    次世代シークエンサーの技術が発展する中、患者個々の腫瘍組織が特異に発現する変異蛋白質(ネオ抗原)を標的とするワクチンは、究極的な個別化がん治療法として注目されている。特に、抗原をコードするmRNAを投与し、生体内で抗原を発現させるRNAワクチンは、遺伝子情報を変えるだけで、同一の製剤ながら多種の抗原に迅速に対応できる点で、個別化がんワクチンを実現するための重要な技術となる。 我々は、エンドソーム内の酸性pHや細胞質の還元環境に応答して生体膜を突破し、自己崩壊することで『細胞質内へRNAを送達』できる脂質様材料 (SS-Cleavable and pH-activated lipid-like material: ssPalm)を開発した。特に、ビタミンEを疎水性足場とするssPalmE粒子は免疫活性化能を有し、さらに、抗原をコードするmRNAを本材料から形成されるナノ粒子に対して皮下投与することで抗原特異的な細胞傷害性T細胞を活性化できることから、RNAワクチンとしての応用が期待できる。今年度は、本材料を用いて、RNAを加えるだけでRNA内封ナノ粒子を調製できる凍結乾燥製剤の開発を開始している。 また、ssPalmEの生体内分解性を考慮した新たな材料を開発し、免疫活性化能の評価を開始するとともに、RNA搭載ナノ粒子が調製可能であることを見いだしている。さらに、癌抗原を新たに見いだすべく、マウスの癌自然発症マウスの作成を開始している。

    我々はこれまで、細胞内環境に応答して生体膜バリアを突破し、自己崩壊する脂質様材料(ssPalm)を開発し、mRNAや核酸送達システムとして利用してきた。 本研究では、ssPalmから形成される脂質ナノ粒子に難水溶性薬物を統合し、①薬物同士が自発的にナノ粒子を形成し、②自らの力で体内・ 細胞内動態を制御し、③細胞内環境に応答して自己崩壊することで薬物を放出する『自己ナノ組織化プロドラッグ』を開発する。 2021年度においては、2020年度に開発したプロドラッグ搭載脂質ナノ粒子の核酸デリバリーシステムとしての応用可能性を検証した。核酸を細胞内に導入し、機能を発揮するためには、エンドソーム内の酸性環境に応答して正に帯電し、エンドソーム膜を不安定化することが大きな駆動力となる。様々な疎水性を有する一連のプロドラッグを搭載した脂質ナノ粒子を開発した結果、特定の薬物において、安定かつ均一性の高い脂質ナノ粒子を調製することが可能となった。プロドラッグ搭載ナノ粒子のエンドソーム膜不安定化能の指標として、pH依存的な赤血球膜の溶血活性を評価した。その結果、pHの低下に伴い、高い溶血活性が認められた。 また、本技術をsiRNAの導入技術へと応用すべく、自己ナノ組織化プロドラッグにsiRNAを搭載させ、in vitroにおけるノックダウン効率を評価したところ、標的となるmRNAの発現を抑制された。このことから、本プロドラッグを搭載した脂質ナノ粒子は、核酸の送達システムとしての有用性が認められた。

    多重パッケージング法の確立に関して、内膜の膜枚数制御を行うために、遺伝子とポリカチオンの凝集体コアをテトラエチレングリコール修飾コレステロール(TEG-Col)含有脂質膜でコーティングした。また、本MENDを2枚目で封入する際には、1枚膜MENDの空リポソームからの精製と長期保存を行うための凍結乾燥技術を確立することが重要である。スクロース密度勾配遠心を行うことにより、遺伝子封入ナノ粒子の精製を行い、さらに本MZNDを凍結乾燥する上で至適なバッファー条件を見出すことに成功した。また、本精製後のMENDは、1枚膜で覆われていることは、電子顕微鏡観察により明らかとした。また、2段階目の封入法の確立についても検討を行った。内膜にビオチン修飾を施し、2段階目のパッケージングに伴うアビジンの内膜への結合阻害効果を指標にパッケージングを評価する方法論を確立した。 また、外膜の検討として、肺血管内皮を標的化可能な新規リガンドを探索した。本リガンド修飾リポソームに遺伝子を封入しても、初期の検討においては遺伝子発現がほとんど認められなかったが、細胞内動態(特にエンドソーム脱出)の改良により、in vivo静脈内投与によって効率的な遺伝子発現を示すナノ粒子を構築することに成功した。さらに、本粒子に対して、siRNAを封入することにより、肺血管内皮細胞における効率的な血管投与型遺伝子ノックダウンシステムを構築することに成功した。さらに、新たに脳への標的化リガンドについても探索し、レプチン由来ペプチドが脳毛細血管内皮細胞標的化に有用である事を見出した。 細胞内動態の観点からは、リアルタイムイメージングシステムにより、ナノ粒子の細胞質輸送過程を定量的に評価する技術を確立した。

    正常組織の血管内皮細胞は、互いに隣接する細胞間でタイトなジャンクションを形成しており、高分子ナノキャリアの血中から組織実質への輸送は著しく制限されている。従って、トランスサイトーシスによって細胞単層を透過可能なキャリアが構築できれば、血管内皮バリアの克服につながり、DDS研究の究極的な目標である血中投与を介した組織実質移行性ベクターの実現への大きなブレイクスルーとなる。本年度は、細胞内オルガネラの中でも細胞内ソーティングにおいて中心的役割を果たすゴルジ体への標的化と、本戦略とは別にトランスサイトーシス経路標的化ペプチドの探索を行った。 極性細胞であるMDCK細胞などにおけるR8-MENDの細胞内動態解析を行なった結果、他の細胞における動態とは大きくことなり、エンドソーム脱出効率が悪いことが明らかとなった。また、従来のカチオン性脂質と異なり、R8-MENDの一部はゴルジ体に移行することを明らかとした。 また、前年度に構築した新規トランスウェルを用い、多岐にわたるペプチドを修飾したリポソームの単層細胞培養系の透過性を解析した結果、ファージディスプレイ法によって同定されたペプチドのうちのひとつをリポソーム表面に修飾することにより、マウス脳毛細血管内皮細胞由来細胞からなる単層を透過できることを明らかとした。また、本ペプチドの長さ、配列などを種々改変し、同様にリポソームの透過実験を行った結果、ナノ粒子のトランスサイトーシスを誘起可能な新規コンセンサス配列を世界に先駆けて同定することに成功した。さらに、細胞内取り込み機構を解析した結果、本粒子はカベオラにより取り込まれ、さらに、本経路を阻害することによってトランスサイトーシスも阻害されることから、本経路がトランスサイトーシスに重要な役割を果たすことを明らかとした。また、脳毛細血管内皮細胞への標的化ペプチドとして、leptin由来ペプチドが有用であることを見出した。

    本年度は、アジュバントのトポロジー制御の観点からアジュバント搭載型ナノ構造体の構築とその機能評価を行った。まず認識受容体の局在が異なる2種類のアジュバントを搭載したMENDの構築を行い、細胞性免疫誘導効率への影響を調べた。polyI:Cはエンドソーム内のTLR3及び細胞質中のMda5により認識され、CpG-ODNはエンドソーム内のTLR9によって認識される。それ故、細胞への取り込み後に認識されるように、MENDの内部に抗原と共に内封した。polyI:CもしくはCpG-ODNを内封したMENDをマウスに皮下免疫し、CTL活性を測定した結果、polyI:C内封MENDを免疫したマウス群では、CpG-ODN搭載MENDを免疫した群と比較して著しく高いCTL活性の誘導が認められた。 次にpolyI:C搭載MENDとpolyI:C/R8複合体のCTL活性誘導能を比較した。その結果、polyI:C搭載MENDを免疫したマウス群の方が高いCTL活性及び抗腫瘍活性を示した。MEND内にpolyI:Cを内封することで、効率良くTLR3及びMda5に認識され、強力な細胞性免疫が誘導されたと考えられる。このことからアジュバントの機能を十分に発揮させるためには、そのトポロジーを考慮することが重要であることが示唆された。 またpolyI:CをMEND内に内封することでアジュバント投与時の炎症等の副作用が軽減されるかを調べた。polyI:C搭載MEND及びpolyI:C単独をマウス尾静脈から投与し、2時間後の炎症性サイトカインIL-6の産生を調べた。その結果、polyI:C搭載MEND投与群では、polyI:C単独投与群と比較してIL-6産生の著しい抑制が認められた。 以上の結果より、効率的な細胞性免疫誘導及び副作用の軽減には、アジュバントのトポロジーを考慮したワクチン設計が重要であることが明らかになった。

    平成20年度は、リアルタイムイメージングを駆使し、細胞内動態、特に細胞質輸送に関して人工ベクターとアデノウイルスベクター間で比較を行った。また、その輸送における微小管依存性を調べるとともに、能動的な輸送、さらには拡散速度に関してMean Square Diffusion(MSD)を算出することで定量的に解析した。さらに、小胞輸送の寄与についても解析するために人工キャリアと小胞を別々の蛍光色素によってラベルを行い、マルチカラーリアルタイムイメージングを行った。その結果、人工ベクターに関しては大部分が小胞に取り込まれた形で微小管輸送を受けていること、さらには、その速度はアデノウイルス、あるいは人工キャリアを取り込んでいない小胞と比較して優位に遅いことを明らかとした。このことは、微小管輸送は、輸送物の密度などによって速度が制限されることを示すものである。また、遺伝子発現におけるheterogeneityのメカニズムを明らかとするため、mRNAと蛋白発現に関する1細胞レベルのdual imagingを行った。蛋白発現を解析するために、ピストン蛋白とTFPとの融合蛋白発現系を用い、本mRNA発現に関しては量子ドットを用いた高感度検出の確立を行った。その結果、人工ベクターにおいては、mRNAと蛋白の発現レベルに相関が少ないことが明らかとなっている。現在、mRNAの発現レベルと蛋白の発現レベルの相関性をアデノウイルスについても解析を開始しており、本結果との比較情報をもとに論文化する予定である。さらに北陸先端大学との共同研究により、遺伝子とポロロタキサンによるナノキャリアの細胞内動態解析をおこない、律速段階の同定に成功した。

    我々は、多機能性エンベロープ型ナノ構造体(MEND)の開発に成功し、細胞膜透過機能を有するオクタアル,ギニン(R8)修飾したR8-MENDは、培養細胞系においてアデノウイルスと同等の遺伝子発現を示すことを明らかにした(Khalil,et al.Gene Ther.2007)。さらに、in vivoでがん組織選択的な遺伝子デリバリーシステムを開発するために、がん組織内で特異的に発現するペプチダーゼ(MMP)により切断されてPEGを脱離し、がん細胞内へ侵入するという新しい戦略(PEG-peptide-DOPE(PPD)-MEND)を設計し,本コンセプトが機能するかをin vitro系で検証した。その結果、PPD-MENDはMMP依存的にPEGが解離し、高い遺伝子導入を誘起できることが明らかとなった。さらに、本PPD-MENDをマウスに静脈内投与すると、血中滞留性を示すと同時に、腫瘍組織へ有為な送達が可能であり、in vivoにおける遺伝子発現にも成功した(Hatakeyama,et al.Gene Ther.2007)。さらに、PPD-MENDにsiRNAを搭載し、in vivoで腫瘍組織へ標的化可能、かつ、がん細胞で発現している遺伝子(ルシフェラーゼ遺伝子)を選択的にノックダウンすることにも成功した。本、PPD-MENDに抗腫瘍効果を誘起するsiRNAを搭載することにより、がん治療への道が拓かれることが期待できる。

    ヒストン等の核内蛋白質との相互作用を制御することにより、外来遺伝子の核内動態や転写が制御可能であると考えられる。本研究課題では、核内蛋白質との相互作用を制御可能なDNAを新たに開発することを目的として、以下の研究を行った。 以前に、我々は、マウス肝臓へ送達させた外来DNAの核内動態を解析し、外来DNA1分子当たりの発現効率が減少すること(silencing)を見出した。本研究でマウス肝臓中の外来DNAと結合している蛋白質の解析を行った結果、予想通り外来DNAはヒストン蛋白質と結合していること、及び、ヒストンの修飾状況には経時的変化が観察されないことが明らかとなった。また、silencingは培養細胞でも生じていることが明らかとなった。 次に、ヒストンと結合する位置を制御する配列をプロモーター近傍に導入したプラスミドDNAをマウス肝臓へ送達させ、発現に対する影響を観察した。ヒストン高親和性配列(CATGTTTTTの36回繰り返し配列)の導入により、外来遺伝子の発現は約20倍上昇した。一方、核内における外来DNA量には変化は観察されなかった。従って、この機能配列の付加により外来DNA1分子当たりの発現効率が大きく改善された。これは、転写因子と相互作用する配列(TATA box)がヌクレオソームに取り込まれず露出するように制御された結果と思われる。 また、相同組換え蛋白質との相互作用を向上させた遺伝子修復用DNA断片(直鎖状-本鎖DNA断片)による遺伝子修復法に関する実験も合わせて行った。新規標的遺伝子としてrpsL遺伝子を選択し、様々な箇所における遺伝子修復を調べた。その結果、遺伝子修復効率は部位により異なり、約1%から約9%の範囲であった。従って、一本鎖DNA断片を用いる遺伝子修復は、様々な遺伝子/配列に適用可能な遺伝子治療法であることが明らかとなった。

    アデノウイルスと人工ベクター間の遺伝子発現比較を行った結果、同程度の遺伝子発現を示すためには、LipofectAMINE PLUSにおいてはadenovirusと比較して、3桁以上の遺伝子コピー数を必要とすることが明らかとなっている。これまで、両ベクターの細胞内動態を解析した結果、両者の発現効率の大きな差を生み出す要因が、核に移行してから後の効率にあることを明らかとした。そこで本研急では、このような核移行後発現効率がどのようなメカニズムに基づくものであるかを明らかとした。 セントラルドグマの中間産物であるmRNAをリアルタイムRT-PCRによって測定することにより、この7000-8000倍にも及ぶ核移行後発現効率差における転写、翻訳過程の寄与を解析した。この結果、転写効率、翻訳効率はそれぞれ400倍及び20倍、アデノウイルスで高い結果が明らかとなった。一方、解離型DNAのみを検出可能な高感度in situ hybridizationを用い、アデノウイルスとプラスミドDNAをTSA増感システムによって高感度に検出した結果、Adの方がLFNと比較して非常に効率的な染色が得られ、LFNの低い核内解離効率が、核移行後の発現効率の低さの原因となる事が示唆された。さらに、アデノウイルスにおいては、ユークロマチンへの特異的な局在が認められた。このような、核内の局在や解離の違いが、核内転写の違いに寄与することが示唆される。さらに、LipofectAMINE PLUSは、細胞内のmRNAと高い静電的相互作用を有し、これが、LFNにおいて低い翻訳効率をしめす一因であることが示唆された。 また、リアルタイムイメージングに基づいて細胞内動態を評価した結果、遺伝子は非常にすばやく細胞内でアグリケーションを起こすことを見出し、転写移行後の発現効率の低い大きな要因であることが示唆された。

    本研究は、蛋白質をミトコンドリア(MT)へ送達するための新規送達システムの開発を目的とした。研究戦略は、蛋白質をコアとするナノ粒子(直径100nm以下)を形成し、細胞膜とMT膜を突破するためにエンベロープを多重構造にする(多重型MEND)。最外層にはオクタアルギニンを、中間層にはMT targeting signal(MTS)を付加し、ナノ粒子のままMT内へ送達するシステムを開発する。 1)蛋白質を封入したMENDの構築:これまで、多機能性エンベロープ型ナノ構造体(MEND)に遺伝子を封入する方向を確立してきたが、本研究では、蛋白質を封入する方法を確立することに成功した。本MENDは、マクロピノサイトーシスで細胞内へ導入後、封入したGFPを細胞質中に放出可能であることが明らかと成った。 2)R8-MENDによるミトコンドリアへの送達システムの開発:オクタアルギニン(R8)修飾したMENDはマクロピノサイトーシスにより細胞内へ取込まれ、細胞質中へ脱出し、ミトコンドリアへGFPを送達可能であることが明らかとなった。 3)MTS結合エンベロープ体の構築:まず、脂質誘導体-MTSの合成を行った。合成は困難を極めたが、純度の高い合成品を得ることに成功した。エンベロープ化したナノ粒子に脂質誘導体一MTSを導入し、MTS結合エンベロープ体を構築した。MTS結合型多重型MENDにより、選択的なミトコンドリア送達が可能となった。

    アデノウイルスと人工ベクター間の遺伝子発現比較を行った結果、同程度の遺伝子発現を示すためには、LipofectAMINE PLUSにおいてはadenovirusと比較して、3桁以上の遺伝子コピー数を必要とすることが明らかとなっている。H16年度おいて、両ベクターの細胞内動態を解析した結果、両者の発現効率の大きな差を生み出す要因が、核に移行してから後の効率にあることを明らかとした。H17年度は、このような核移行後発現効率がどのようなメカニズムに基づくものであるかを明らかとした。 転写効率を生み出すメカニズムについて、Ad由来のコア蛋白やゲノム構造に由来する可能性や、遺伝子の核内解離の違いを解析した。Adをプレ感染してコア蛋白を核内に導入しても、プレ感染なしのものと比べて有為な上昇は認められなかつた。また、GFPをコードするAdゲノムと、プラスミドDNAを核内インジェクションした結果、GFP発現率に有為な差は認められなかった。このことから、アデノウイルス側に転写を促進する因子があるという可能性は否定された。一方、解離型DNAのみを検出可能なin situ hybridizationを用い、アデノウイルスとプラスミドDNAをTSA増感システムによって高感度に検出した結果、Adの方がLFNと比較して非常に効率的な染色が得られ、LFNの低い核内解離効率が、核移行後の発現効率の低さの原因となる事が示唆された。さらに、アデノウイルスにおいては、ユークロマチンへの特異的な局在が認められた。このような、核内の局在や解離の違いが、核内転写の違いに寄与することが示唆される。

    本申請研究は,遺伝子デリバリーシステムの細胞内動態と核内転写過程を独自の戦略に基づいて最適化し,ウイルスベクターを越える高い発現効率を有する人工遺伝子ベクターを開発しがん治療へ貢献することを目的とした.本申請研究は、(1)遺伝子及びそのベクターの細胞内動態の素過程を定量的に評価するシステムの構築:量子ドットを用いて蛍光強度の減衰を防止するとともに,3次元解析により細胞内局在を定量的に評価する。(2)上記定量系をスクリーニングシステムに活用し,各ステップを促進する素子の分子スクリーニングを行う.(3)アデノウイルスベクターと我々が構築した人工遺伝子ベクターとをin vivo及びin vitroで比較評価し,ウイルスベクターと比較して弱点となる過程を選択的に促進する素子を探索する.(4)以上のスクリーニングと最適化に基づいて構築された人工遺伝子デリバリーシステムのin vivoにおける標的組織到達性と遺伝子発現効率を定量的に評価する、という四つのステップからなり,ウイルスベクターを越える人工遺伝子ベクターを開発した.これまでに人工遺伝子ベクターとウイルスベクターはそれぞれ別個の研究グループにより開発が行われ,互いに一長一短を主張している.本研究は,それぞれのベクターの細胞内動態の律速段階を明らかとすると同時に,本スクリーニングシステムによりウイルスを越える機能を有する新たな細胞内ソーティング素子を開発することに成功した.遺伝子及びベクターの細胞内動態の素過程を定量的に評価した研究は非常に少なく,ブラックボックスとして扱われいる.我々はすでに遺伝子に核移行量の定量に成功しているが,各ステップ(kint, kesc, klys, kdeg, lys, kdeg, cyt, knuc, ktra)のを定量化することが可能となり,どこが律速段階になっているのか,ウイルスベクターと比較してどこに弱点があるのかが解明できるようになった.

    遺伝子ベクターを最適化する上で、エンドソームから細胞質への脱出と、それに引き続く核膜透過過程の効率を定量化する事は重要である.本研究においては、共焦点レーザー顕微鏡により得られる画像を基に定量化を試み、細胞内動態の定量的解析法を構築した。さらに、PCRを用いて、核内への遺伝子到達量を測定する系についても確立し、これらを用いて各種遺伝子導入法の違いによる細胞内遺伝子動態の比較を行った。stearyl R8及びlipofectAMINEによる導入時においては、R8と比較してendosome/lysosomeからの脱出過程とそれに伴う核内移行過程が非常に早い事が明らかとなり、遺伝子発現活性と矛盾をしない結果となった。また、stearyl R8を用いた導入においては、エンドソームの脱出とそれに続く核膜透過が時間依存的に上昇するのに対し、lipofectAMINEを用いた際には、特に30分という非常に早い時間で細胞質や核に遺伝子が移行する事が明らかとなり、エンドサイトーシス以外の経路を介した取込み機構の存在と、効率的な核移行性が示唆された。このような細胞内遺伝子定量解析は、遺伝子ベクターの新たな細胞内挙動メカニズムを明らかにするのみでなく、核指向性新規遺伝子ベクターの開発に有用であろうと考えられる。 現在、この実験系を用い、より究極的な課題として、なぜウイルスは人工ベクターと比較して遺伝子発現が悪いのかを細胞内動態の観点から明らかにする事を試みている.

    肝臓を介した血管側から胆汁中への胆汁酸の極性輸送には、胆汁酸の取り込み過程に関与する肝細胞血管側膜上のトランスポーター及び肝細胞内から胆汁中への排出トランスポーターの協調的な輸送が関与している。排泄に関わるトランスポーターとして硫酸抱合胆汁酸を基質とするMultidrug resistance associated protein2や一価胆汁酸を基質とするBile salt export pump(BSEP)が存在しているが、我々は、Mrp2欠損ラットであるEisai hyperbilirubinemic rat(EHBR)の肝臓よりMrp3を同定し、胆汁酸を基質とする事を明らかとした。Mrp3が胆汁うっ滞時などの病態時に肝血管側膜状に存在する事を考えると、肝細胞の胆汁酸からの保護に役立つのではないかという仮説が挙げられた。我々は、SDラットとEHBRを用いて肝潅流実験を行い、Mrp3の基質である[^3H]タウロコール酸(TC)の肝細胞から血管中側へのクリアランスがEHBRにおいて上昇している事から、Mrp3の血管側への胆汁酸排出への寄与を示唆してきた。この事をさらに実証する目的で、今回我々はMrp3の誘導が認められるフェノバルビタール処理ラットを用いてこの仮説をさらに検証した。今回我々は、Mrp3の誘導が認められるフェノバルビタール処理ラットを用いて[^3H]TCを基質とする肝潅流実験を行った結果、横軸にMrp3の肝臓における発現量を、縦軸に血管側への透過性をプロットすると良好な相関が得られた。これらの結果はMrp3が胆汁酸の血管側への排出に関与する事を強く示唆するものである。また、得られた回帰直線は原点を通らず、比較的大きなY切片を有した事から、Mrp3以外の排出メカニズムが存在すると考えられる。近年Organic anion transporting polypeptide(Oatp)ファミリートランスポーターがアニオン交換輸送担体である事を示唆する報告がなされておりOatpがMrp3以外の血管側への排出に関わる事が示唆される。
