1 Engineering Microglia for Neural Cell Therapy LETHBRIDGE BRAINIACS: Dennis Bettenson Harland Brandon Evan Caton Rachael Chan Billy Cowitz Aubrey Demchuk Graeme Glaister Rhys Hakstol Suneet Kharey Kelsey O Brien Dustin Smith Zak Stinson Scott Wong Hans-Joachim Wieden
2 Background How many of you know someone who has been affected by: Traumatic Stroke Brain Injury (TBI)
3 Background 1.5 million people experience a TBI each year in the USA and 800,000 suffer from a stroke Incidence of TBI is higher than multiple sclerosis (MS), spinal cord injury, HIV/AIDS, and breast cancer combined Combined health care costs of stroke & TBI estimated to be $110 billion in the USA alone
4 Policy and Practice Dr. Toni Winder, M.D. (Neurologist specializing in ischemic stroke) Dr. Randall Barley, Ph.D. (Experimental Surgery) Patient K.B. (Recovering Stroke Patient)
5 Insert 1min video highlight of interviews Policy and Practice
6 Background Cell Death Neurons
7 Background Microglia
8 Astrocytes Background
9 Reactive Astrocytes Background
10 Background
11 Background Guo et al. (2013) - direct reprogramming of reactive astrocytes to functional neurons using a single transcription factor, NeuroD1 BRAAAINS BUT viral-mediated gene therapy in human patients is controversial!
12 Background Non-invasive Non-integrating Non-immunogenic Specific
13 Background Alvarez-Erviti et al. (2011) exosomes are an effective, noninvasive delivery mechanism for mrna knockdown therapy NJU China s 2013 igem team MIT s 2013 igem team
14 Project Overview Engineer microglia ( nomadocytes ) as non-immunogenic carriers of neural tissue-specific therapeutic genes Exosomes Damaged Neurons Microglia Reactive Astrocytes
15 Project Overview Synthetic plasmid delivery system to target a neural reprogramming message (NeuroD1) to reactive astrocytes Exosome Therapeutic Plasmid Plasmid Delivery System
16 Project Overview This message will promote functional recovery after a TBI or stroke
17 Project Design Exosomal plasmid transport system: Exosome DNA-Binding Domain Target Sequence Rabies Virus Glycoprotein (RVG) Lamp2B
18 Project Design Nuclear targeting in recipient astrocyte: Exosome Protease Cut Site Nuclear Localization Signal (NLS)
19 Project Design Therapeutic plasmid: Exosome NeuroD1 Astrocyte-Specific Promoter RNA-OUT Sequence
20 Policy and Practice A post-antibiotic era in which common infections and minor injuries can kill far from being an apocalyptic fantasy, is instead a very real possibility for the 21st Century. WHO, 2014 Misuse of antibiotics Potential for transfer of cassette to patient s microbiome
21 Project Design Antibiotic free plasmid selection - RNA-IN/OUT Native to E. coli Insertion Element 10 Riboregulation of translation Hybridization occludes ribosome binding site Complementarity of RNA-OUT loop sequence and RNA-IN confers specificity RNA-IN RNA-OUT
22 Project Design 3 G C G A A C C U A C 5
23 Project Design 3 G C G A A C C U A C 5
24 Project Design Const. RNA-OUT Plasmid v pbad ccdb Genome
25 Results Antibiotic free plasmid selection - RNA-IN/OUT: pbad T4 Lysis Cassette pbad-rna-in-lysis RNA-OUT
26 Results Exosome DNA-Binding Domain Clover
27 Results
28 Results Predicted structure of RVG-Lamp2B-Clover exosomal protein:
29 Results Expression of RVG-Lamp2B-Clover exosomal protein in cell culture: A B C D A. HEK control B. HEK + pcdna3.0-clover C. HEK + pcdna3.0-rvg- Lamp2B-Clover D. Murine microglia + pcdna3.0-lamp2b- Clover 20µm
30 Results Confirmed exosome production in HEK-293 cultures with transmission electron microscopy (TEM): 1 µm
31 Results Confirmed Clover fluorescence is localized to exosomes:
32 Results Developed the NeuroD1 therapeutic plasmid with the inclusion of IRES-Clover: Clover Doublecortin NeuN 20µm
33 Results: Summary Established protocols for exosome isolation and purification Successfully engineered an exosomal targeting system and demonstrated exosomal localization Submitted RNA IN/OUT plasmid selection system, RVG-Lamp2B-Clover and TEV protease parts First steps towards a novel non-invasive cell-based gene therapy approach for human brains
34 Future Directions Isolate primary astrocytes and microglia from mice rather than using immortalized lines Validate exosomal packaging using animal model Generate microglia from patient bone marrow cells
35 Policy and Practice Collaboration with the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC): Presented current and past igem projects Demonstrated our commitment to biosafety Feedback on current safety standards Help update igem safety form
