Gene transduction and cell entry pathway of fiber-modified adenovirus type 5 vectors carrying novel endocytic peptide ligands selected on human tracheal glandular cells.

Résumé

Monolayers of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR)-deficient human tracheal glandular cells (CF-KM4) were subjected to phage biopanning, and cell-internalized phages were isolated and sequenced, in order to identify CF-KM4-specific peptide ligands that would confer upon adenovirus type 5 (Ad5) vector a novel cell target specificity and/or higher efficiency of gene delivery into airway cells of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). Three different ligands, corresponding to prototypes of the most represented families of phagotopes recovered from intracellular phages, were designed and individually inserted into Ad5-green fluorescent protein (GFP) (AdGFP) vectors at the extremities of short fiber shafts (seven repeats [R7]) terminated by scissile knobs. Only one vector, carrying the decapeptide GHPRQMSHVY (abbreviated as QM10), showed an enhanced gene transduction of CF-KM4 cells compared to control nonliganded vector with fibers of the same length (AdGFP-R7-knob). The enhancement in gene transfer efficiency was not specific to CF-KM4 cells but was observed in other mammalian cell lines tested. The QM10-liganded vector was referred to as AdGFP-QM10-knob in its knobbed version and as AdGFP-QM10 in its proteolytically deknobbed version. AdGFP-QM10 was found to transduce cells with a higher efficiency than its knob-bearing version, AdGFP-QM10-knob. Consistent with this, competition experiments indicated that the presence of knob domains was not an absolute requirement for cell attachment of the QM10-liganded vector and that the knobless AdGFP-QM10 used alternative cell-binding domains on its capsid, including penton base capsomer, via a site(s) different from its RGD motifs. The QM10-mediated effect on gene transduction seemed to take place at the step of endocytosis in both quantitative and qualitative manners. Virions of AdGFP-QM10 were endocytosed in higher numbers than virions of the control vector and were directed to a compartment different from the early endosomes targeted by members of species C Ad. AdGFP-QM10 was found to accumulate in late endosomal and low-pH compartments, suggesting that QM10 acted as an endocytic ligand of the lysosomal pathway. These results validated the concept of detargeting and retargeting Ad vectors via our deknobbing system and redirecting Ad vectors to an alternative endocytic pathway via a peptide ligand inserted in the fiber shaft domain.
