Quantification and characterization of autotransduction in retroviral vector producer cells.

Abstract:

:Gene therapy has evolved into a tempting strategy for the management of cancer and other life-threatening diseases. Various approaches employ retroviral vectors to deliver the therapeutic gene. The profound knowledge about retrovirus biology allows the generation of increasingly advanced vector systems as well as an accurate assessment and management of potential safety risks. This study focuses on the genetic stability of retrovirus producer cells as a basic safety requirement and its compromise by autotransduction. It has been shown previously that protection of retroviral packaging systems by superinfection interference is not guaranteed. The current study provides insight into the extent of autotransduction and the time point at which it occurs, and examines strategies to antagonize it. Therefore, a reconstituting vector system was used that obviates transgene expression in virus producer cells by physically separating transgene and promoter. Just on infection two functional expression cassettes are reconstituted, causing highly efficient transgene expression in transduced cells. Equipped with an enhanced green fluorescent protein-encoding gene, this vector allowed accurate quantification of autotransduced cells, which were then isolated by fluorescence-activated cell sorting and further characterized. Sequencing of recloned integrated vector copies demonstrated that high transgene expression levels were strictly associated with the presence of reverse-transcribed vector copies. Envelope protein expression levels, however, were found to be equal in autotransduced and noninfected virus producer cells. Finally, the occurrence of autotransduction could be assigned to an early time point after transfection and was successfully blocked by azidothymidine treatment, yielding a stable and homogeneous population of noninfected retrovirus producer cells.
