Oculo-cutaneous albinism type 1 (OCA1) is characterized by congenital hypopigmentation and is due to mutations in the TYROSINASE gene (TYR). In this study, we have characterized the morpho-functional consequences of the lack of tyrosinase activity in the spontaneous null mouse model of OCA1 (Tyrc-2j). Here, we show that adult Tyrc-2j mice have several retinal functional anomalies associated with photoreceptor loss. To test whether these anomalies are reversible upon TYR complementation, we performed intraocular administration of an adeno-associated virus (AAV)–based vector, encoding the human TYR gene, in adult Tyrc-2j mice. This resulted in melanosome biogenesis and ex novo synthesis of melanin in both neuroectodermally derived retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and in neural crest–derived choroid and iris melanocytes. Ocular melanin accumulation prevented progressive photoreceptor degeneration and resulted in restoration of retinal function. Our results reveal novel properties of pigment cells and show that the developmental anomalies of albino mice are associated with defects occurring in postnatal life, adding novel insights on OCA1 disease pathogenesis. In addition, we provide proof-of-principle of an effective gene-based strategy relevant for future application in albino patients. 相似文献

Steatosis is a pivotal event in the initiation and progression of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) which can be driven by peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-α (PPAR-α) dysregulation. Through examining the effect of PPAR-α on fatty liver development, we found that PPAR-α is a target of miR-17-5p. Transgenic mice expressing miR-17 developed fatty liver and produced higher levels of triglyceride and cholesterol but lower levels of PPAR-α. Ectopic expression of miR-17 enhanced cellular steatosis. Gain-of-function and loss-of-function experiments confirmed PPAR-α as a target of miR-17-5p. On the other hand, PPAR-α bound to the promoter of miR-17 and promoted its expression. The feed-back loop between miR-17-5p and PPAR-α played a key role in the induction of steatosis and fatty liver development. Mice with high levels of miR-17-5p were sensitive to Dexamethasone-induced fatty liver formation. Inhibition of miR-17-5p suppressed this process and enhanced PPAR-α expression in mice treated with Dexamethasone. Clofibrate, Ciprofibrate, and WY-14643: three agents used for treatment of metabolic disorders, were found to promote PPAR-α expression while decreasing miR-17-5p levels and inhibiting steatosis. Our studies show that miR-17-5p inhibitor and agents used in metabolic disorders may be applied in combination with Dexamethasone in the treatment of anti-inflammation, immunosuppression, and cancer patients. 相似文献

Recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) are effective gene delivery vehicles that can mediate long-lasting transgene expression. However, tight regulation and tissue-specific transgene expression is required for certain therapeutic applications. For regulatable expression from the liver we designed a hepatospecific bidirectional and autoregulatory tetracycline (Tet)-On system (TetbidirAlb) flanked by AAV inverted terminal repeats (ITRs). We characterized the inducible hepatospecific system in comparison with an inducible ubiquitous expression system (TetbidirCMV) using luciferase (luc). Although the ubiquitous system led to luc expression throughout the mouse, luc expression derived from the hepatospecific system was restricted to the liver. Interestingly, the induction rate of the TetbidirAlb was significantly higher than that of TetbidirCMV, whereas leakage of TetbidirAlb was significantly lower. To evaluate the therapeutic potential of this vector, an AAV-Tetbidir-Alb-expressing interleukin-12 (IL-12) was tested in a murine model for hepatic colorectal metastasis. The vector induced dose-dependent levels of IL-12 and interferon-γ (IFN-γ), showing no significant toxicity. AAV-Tetbidir-Alb-IL-12 was highly efficient in preventing establishment of metastasis in the liver and induced an efficient T-cell memory response to tumor cells. Thus, we have demonstrated persistent, and inducible in vivo expression of a gene from a liver-specific Tet-On inducible construct delivered via an AAV vector and proved to be an efficient tool for treating liver cancer. 相似文献

Thirty-three patients with acute liver failure underwent orthotopicliver transplantation, including 16 with fulminant hepatic failure,15 with lateonset hepatic failure and two with severeacute liver failure (coagulopathy without encephalopathy). Twentythree(70 per cent) survived to leave hospital and 21 of these arecurrently alive and well. Outcome correlated with the serumbilirubin level before transplantation (p<0.05) but no correlationwas found with the variant of acute liver failure, grade ofencephalopathy, cerebral oedema, serum creatinine, white cellcount, prothrombin time or platelet count at the time of transplantation.Severe coagulation factor deficiencies did not constitute aclinical problem. One patient developed a neurological deficitsecondary to cerebral oedema, but otherwise the morbidity reflectedthat observed in the general population after transplantation.Careful monitoring of intracranial pressure and surveillance(with early aggressive therapy) for bacterial and fungal infectionsis very important in achieving a successful outcome after transplantation. 相似文献

Macrophages play a critical role in the pathophysiology of liver ischemia and reperfusion (IR) injury (IRI). However, macrophages that overexpress antioxidant heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) may exert profound anti-inflammatory functions. This study explores the cytoprotective effects and mechanisms of ex vivo modified HO-1-expressing bone marrow–derived macrophages (BMDMs) in well-defined mouse model of liver warm ischemia followed by reperfusion. Adoptive transfer of Ad-HO-1-transduced macrophages prevented IR-induced hepatocellular damage, as evidenced by depressed serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase (sGOT) levels and preserved liver histology (Suzuki scores), compared to Ad-β-gal controls. This beneficial effect was reversed following concomitant treatment with HO-1 siRNA. Ad-HO-1-transfected macrophages significantly decreased local neutrophil accumulation, TNF-α/IL-1β, IFN-γ/E-selectin, and IP-10/MCP-1 expression, caspase-3 activity, and the frequency of apoptotic cells, as compared with controls. Unlike in controls, Ad-HO-1-transfected macrophages markedly increased hepatic expression of antiapoptotic Bcl-2/Bcl-xl and depressed caspase-3 activity. These results establish the precedent for a novel investigative tool and provide the rationale for a clinically attractive new strategy in which native macrophages can be transfected ex vivo with cytoprotective HO-1 and then infused, if needed, to prospective recipients exposed to hepatic IR–mediated local inflammation, such as during liver transplantation, resection, or trauma. 相似文献
