Abstract:
BACKGROUND:In vivo gene transfer into injured arteries may provide a new means to facilitate molecular understanding of and to treat the intractable fibroproliferative arterial diseases. Selection of an optimal molecule to be transferred will be a key to successful gene therapy in the future. We tested the hypothesis that a secreted multifactorial molecule should act more efficiently through an autocrine/paracrine loop to suppress neointimal formation elicited in injured arteries than a simple growth-inhibiting molecule that might be expressed inside cells. METHODS AND RESULTS:We constructed an adenoviral vector (AdCACNP) expressing C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP), a secreted stimulator of membrane-bound guanyl cyclase. AdCACNP directs cells to secrete large quantities of biologically active CNP. Serum-stimulated DNA synthesis and cell proliferation were only moderately suppressed in arterial smooth muscle cells infected with AdCACNP in vitro. However, when AdCACNP was applied to balloon-injured rat carotid arteries in vivo, neointimal formation was markedly reduced (90% reduction) in an infection-site-specific manner without an increase in plasma CNP level. CONCLUSIONS:Our results showed that CNP, a secreted multifactorial molecule, was indeed effective in suppressing fibroproliferative response in injured arteries and suggest that the potent antiproliferation effect may not be the most critical factor for the effective suppression of neointimal formation. An adenovirus-mediated expression of CNP could be an effective and site-specific form of molecular intervention in proliferative arterial diseases.
