Fully Human Anti-CD19 CAR T Cells Derived from Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Patients Exhibit Cytotoxicity with Reduced Inflammatory Cytokine Production. Transplant Cell Ther 2024:S2666-6367(24)00297-5. [PMID: 38548226 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtct.2024.03.023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2023] [Revised: 03/14/2024] [Accepted: 03/22/2024] [Indexed: 04/10/2024]
Abstract
KYV-101 is an autologous anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy under investigation for patients with B-cell driven autoimmune diseases. Hu19-CD828Z is a fully human anti-CD19 CAR designed and demonstrated to have a favorable clinical safety profile. Since anti-CD19 CAR T cells target and kill B cells in both circulation and tissues, the treatment with Hu19-CD828Z CAR T cells offers great potential in depleting autoreactive B cells. Demonstrate that Hu19-CD828Z CAR T cells manufactured from cryopreserved leukaphereses from patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) exhibit CAR-mediated and CD19-dependent cytokine release, proliferation and cytotoxicity when co-cultured with autologous primary B cells. T cells were enriched from cryopreserved leukaphereses from SLE patients or healthy donors (HD). CAR T cells were generated by transducing these cells with a lentiviral vector encoding Hu19-CD828Z. CAR-mediated and CD19-dependent activity was monitored in vitro in a set of cytotoxicity, cytokine release, and proliferation studies, in response to autologous primary CD19+ B cells, a CD19+ cell line (NALM-6), or a CD19- cell line (U937). Hu19-CD828Z CAR T cells produced from SLE patients or HD induced greater proliferation and dose-dependent cytotoxicity against both autologous primary B cells and the CD19+ NALM-6 cells than nontransduced control T cells or co-cultures with a CD19- cell line. Interestingly, there was lower inflammatory cytokine production from SLE patient-derived CAR T cells compared to HD donor-derived CAR T cells with either CD19+ cells or primary B cells. Hu19-CD828Z CAR T cells generated from SLE patient lymphocytes demonstrate CAR-mediated and CD19-dependent activity against autologous primary B cells with reduced inflammatory cytokine production supporting KYV-101 as a novel potential therapy for the depletion of pathogenic B cells in SLE patients.

Abstract
Liver transplantation is the most effective treatment for end-stage liver disease, and early graft dysfunction often occurs after surgery. Early liver dysfunction after liver transplantation has become one of the complications after liver transplantation, which seriously affects the graft and patient survival. Therefore, reducing its occurrence can be an important means to improve the prognosis of recipients after liver transplantation. This paper discusses the research progress on the definition, influencing factors, and prognosis and prediction model in order to provide better prevention and effective reference for improving the success rate and prognosis of early liver dysfunction in recipients after liver transplantation.

Abstract
Tuning heterologous gene expression in mammalian production hosts has predominantly relied upon engineering the promoter elements driving the transcription of the transgene. Moreover, most regulatory elements have borrowed genetic sequences from viral elements. Here, we generate a set of 10 rational and 30 synthetic terminators derived from nonviral elements and evaluate them in the HT1080 and HEK293 cell lines to demonstrate that they are comparable in terms of tuning gene expression/protein output to the viral SV40 element and often require less sequence footprint. The mode of action of these terminators is determined to be an increase in mRNA half-life. Furthermore, we demonstrate that constructs comprising completely nonviral regulatory elements ( i.e., promoters and terminators) can outperform commonly used, strong viral based elements by nearly 2-fold. Ultimately, this novel set of terminators expanded our genetic toolkit for engineering mammalian host cells.

Abstract
Despite recent advances in improving titers for therapeutic proteins such as antibodies to the 10 g/L scale, these high yields can only be achieved in select mammalian hosts. Regardless of the host or product, strong promoters are required to obtain high levels of transgene expression. However, the promoters employed to drive this expression are rather limited in variety and are usually either viral-derived or screened empirically during vector design. To begin to move away from viral parts, we employed a more systematic approach to identify and design new synthetic promoters using endogenous elements. To do so, we established a workflow to design these elements by (1) analyzing the transcriptomics profile of a specific cell line under a desired, representative cell culture condition, (2) identifying key genetic motifs using bioinformatics that can be used to rationally construct synthetic promoters, (3) building synthetic promoters using conventional DNA synthesis and molecular biology techniques, and (4) evaluating the performance of these synthetic promoters using model proteins. The resulting promoters perform comparably to the hCMV IE promoter variants tested, but with endogenous components. During this design-build-test cycle we also investigated the underlying design rules for transcription factor binding site arrangement in synthetic promoters. Overall, this approach of using an "omics-guided" workflow for designing synthetic promoters facilitates the construction of high expression vectors for immediate use in current production hosts.

Abstract
Mammalian cell line development requires streamlined methodologies that will reduce both the cost and time to identify candidate cell lines. Improvements in site-specific genomic editing techniques can result in flexible, predictable, and robust cell line engineering. However, an outstanding question in the field is the specific site of integration. Here, we seek to identify productive loci within the human genome that will result in stable, high expression of heterologous DNA. Using an unbiased, random integration approach and a green fluorescent reporter construct, we identify ten single-integrant, recombinant human cell lines that exhibit stable, high-level expression. From these cell lines, eight unique corresponding integration loci were identified. These loci are concentrated in non-protein coding regions or intronic regions of protein coding genes. Expression mapping of the surrounding genes reveals minimal disruption of endogenous gene expression. Finally, we demonstrate that targeted de novo integration at one of the identified loci, the 12(th) exon-intron region of the GRIK1 gene on chromosome 21, results in superior expression and stability compared to the standard, illegitimate integration approach at levels approaching 4-fold. The information identified here along with recent advances in site-specific genomic editing techniques can lead to expedited cell line development.

Abstract
The increase in quality, quantity, and complexity of recombinant products heavily drives the need to predictably engineer model and complex (mammalian) cell systems. However, until recently, limited tools offered the ability to precisely manipulate their genomes, thus impeding the full potential of rational cell line development processes. Targeted genome editing can combine the advances in synthetic and systems biology with current cellular hosts to further push productivity and expand the product repertoire. This review highlights recent advances in targeted genome editing techniques, discussing some of their capabilities and limitations and their potential to aid advances in pharmaceutical biotechnology.

Abstract
A method of on-line ultrasensitive chemiluminescence detection with capillary electrophoresis for Co(II) is reported. Using our newly developed capillary electrophoresis with chemiluminescence detection system and novel mixing mode of the reagents, the effects of field-amplified injection on detection limits of metal ions were studied in detail. The sub-fM level (1.3 x 10(-16) M, 1.6 x 10(-24) mol, 1 molecule) detection of cobalt ions in ultradilute solution was performed. The catalytic behavior of the chemiluminescence reaction of luminol and hydrogen peroxide by cobalt ions and the reaction conditions, such as the concentration of luminol, H2O2, and pH of chemiluminescence reagent were investigated. The separation of fM level Co(II) and trace amounts of Ni(II) was performed successfully.

Abstract
The optimum electrophoresis separation conditions of Lambda DNA/EcoR I + Hind III fragments were investigated using the capillary column DB-1 coated with polysiloxane. When hydroxyethylcellulose (HEC, 1.0%, mass percentage) was used as the only non-gel sieving medium solution, some Lambda DNA fragments could not be separated. After polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP, 2%, mass percentage) being added into the medium solution, PVP and HEC formed a network colloidal solution in buffer, and changed the network hole size of sieving media. In addition, the results showed that PVP could restrain the adsorption of capillary to DNA, reduced electroosmotic flow, and improved the selectivity of separation. For the first time, all fragments of Lambda DNA marker was separated completely under the same condition of mixed sieving medium solution. The method was applied to separate two groups of DNA fragments of halobacterium halobium, and the base pair number was conjectured.

Abstract
Activation of N-methyl-D-asparate (NMDA) receptor and non-NMDA classes of glutamate receptors play a key role in spinal nociceptive processing. Using with a lumbar intrathecal (IT) catheter and a loop dialysis catheter in lightly anesthetized (1% isoflurane) rats, the effect of IT pre-treatment with magnesium sulfate (100, 300 or 500 microg) on IT kainic acid (KA: 1 microg; non-NMDA receptor agonist) evoked amino acids (AAs) release and corresponding behavior was examined. IT KA produced significant increases (mean+/-SD of % baseline concentration) in dialysate concentrations of aspartate (424+/-88%), glutamate (241+/-35%) and taurine (398+/-58%). IT pre-treatment with MgSO(4) resulted in a dose-dependent suppression of the evoked algogenic behavior and aspartate release. These data suggest that activation of spinal KA receptors provides a powerful stimulus for secondary spinal excitatory AAs release and corresponding appearance of pain behavior. The regulation of this release by magnesium suggests the possible role of this divalent cation in regulating this excitatory effect of non-NMDA receptor activation.

Abstract
A new and facile method has been developed for the fabrication of low-noise carbon fiber microelectrodes (CFMEs) and carbon fiber nanoelectrodes (CFNEs). The carbon fiber was flame-fuse sealed in the tip of the glass capillary. The CFMEs were made by cutting the protruding carbon fiber to the desired length, and the CFNEs were achieved by etching the protruding carbon on the flame to form a nanometer-scale tip. The tip of CFNEs can be controlled within the range from 100 to 300 nm. Thus, no epoxy wax was involved in the CFMEs and CFNEs. The experimental results of inspecting CFMEs and CFNEs by scanning electron microscopy demonstrated that the surface of the electrodes and the glass/fiber interface are very smooth. Therefore, the noise caused by the glass/fiber of these electrodes is much lower than that of the electrodes fabricated conventionlly. The electrodes were characterized by ferricyanide, catecholamine (dopamine,DA), norepinephrine (NE), and epinephrine (E)) and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) neurotransmitters using CV, LSV, DPV, and FSCV. The results showed that the CFMEs and CFNEs have very excellent electrochemical behavior and high sensitivity. The CV and DPV detection limits of DA, NE, and E are 7.6 x 10(-8), 7.0 x 10(-8), and 5.0 x 10(-8) mol/L, and the DPV detection limits of DA, NE, and E are 4.0 x 10(-8), 1.0 x 10(-7), and 2.2 x 10(-7) mol/L, respectively. This experiment offers a new and facile method for the fabrication of CFMEs and CFNEs of very high sensitivity and low noise.

Abstract
Vanadium(V), niobium(V) and tantalum(V) were separated as ternary mixed-ligand complexes by capillary electrophoresis using 4-(2-pyridylazo)resorcinol (PAR) as the color chelating reagent. Four carboxylic acids such as tartaric acid (Tart), oxalic acid, citric acid and acetic acid were investigated as the additional ligand. The first was chosen as the best. Other parameters such as the concentration ratio of Tart to PAR, buffer concentration, injection time and applied voltage were also optimized. Under the optimized conditions, a complete separation of the three metal complexes was accomplished within 10 min. A linear calibration curve in the range of two orders of magnitude was obtained.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Systemic administration of gabapentin was shown previously to attenuate mechanical allodynia in a rat model of postoperative pain. Because intrathecal administration of gabapentin is effective in other hypersensitivity states, the authors tested its effect in the postoperative model, its interaction with another antiallodynic agent (clonidine), and a possible mechanism of gabapentin action (entry into sites of action via an L-amino acid transporter). METHODS Male Sprague-Dawley rats were anesthetized with halothane, and an incision of the plantaris muscle of right hind paw induced punctate mechanical allodynia. Withdrawal threshold to von Frey filament application near the incision site was determined before and 2 h after surgery. Then, an intrathecal injection was performed and thresholds were determined every 30 min for 3 h thereafter. RESULTS Paw incision induced a mechanical hypersensitivity (mechanical threshold > 25 g before incision and < 5 g after). Intrathecal gabapentin dose-dependently (10-100 microg) reduced mechanical allodynia. Intrathecal injection of an inhibitor of L-amino acid transporters or a competitor for this transporter, L-leucine, did not reverse the intrathecal effect of gabapentin. The ED50 of intrathecal gabapentin, clonidine, and their combination were 51, 31, and 9 microg, respectively, and isobolographic analysis showed synergy between gabapentin and clonidine. CONCLUSIONS Intrathecal gabapentin is effective against tactile allodynia that occurs after paw incision, and interacts synergistically with clonidine. Unlike results in vitro, gabapentin does not obligatorily need to enter cells via the L-amino acid transporter mechanism to achieve its effects in vivo.

Abstract
BACKGROUND alpha2-Adrenergic agonists produce analgesia primarily by a spinal action and hypotension and bradycardia by actions at several sites. Clonidine is approved for epidural use in the treatment of neuropathic pain, but its wider application is limited by hemodynamic side effects. This study determined the antinociceptive and hemodynamic effects of a novel alpha2-adrenergic agonist, MPV-2426, in sheep. METHODS Forty sheep of mixed Western breeds with indwelling catheters were studied. In separate studies, antinociception to a mechanical stimulus, hemodynamic effects, arterial blood gas tensions, cerebrospinal fluid pharmacokinetics, and spinal cord blood flow was determined after epidural, intrathecal, and intravenous injection of MPV-2426. RESULTS MPV-2426 produced antinociception with greater potency intrathecally (ED50 = 49 microg) than epidurally (ED50 = 202 microg), whereas intravenous administration had no effect. Intrathecal injection, in doses up to three times the ED95, failed to decrease systemic or central arterial blood pressures or heart rate, whereas larger doses, regardless of route, increased systemic arterial pressure. Bioavailability in cerebrospinal fluid was 7% after epidural administration and 0.17% after intravenous administration. Intrathecal MPV-2426, in an ED95 dose and three times this dose, produced a dose-independent reduction in thoracic and lumbar spinal cord blood flow. CONCLUSIONS MPV-2426 shares many characteristics of other alpha2-adrenergic agonists examined in sheep, but differs from clonidine and dexmedetomidine by lack of antinociception and minimal reduction in oxygen partial pressure after large intravenous and epidural injections. No hemodynamic depression was observed after intrathecal injection at antinociceptive doses. These results suggest this compound may be an effective spinal analgesic in humans with less hypotension than clonidine, although its relative potency to cause sedation was not tested in this study.

Abstract
UNLABELLED In this double-blinded, randomized study, we examined the hemodynamic effects of lumbar epidural injection of alkalinized lidocaine with phenylephrine in 81 patients undergoing inguinal herniorrhaphy. Patients assigned to four equal groups received 20 mL of alkalinized lidocaine (17 mL of 2% lidocaine + 3 mL of 7% sodium bicarbonate) with one of four doses of phenylephrine: 0 (Group 1), 50 (Group 2), 100 (Group 3), or 200 microg (Group 4) injected via a lumbar epidural catheter. Blood pressure, heart rate, and skin temperature on the foot were recorded every 5 min for 1 h after injection and were compared among groups. Hypotension was defined as mean arterial pressure < 80% of baseline. The incidence of hypotension was 45%, 55%, 35%, and 15% in Groups 1-4, respectively. Patients in Group 4 showed the smallest reduction in blood pressure compared with Groups 1 and 2 (one-sided Fisher's exact test, P < 0.05). We conclude that the 200-microg dose of epidural phenylephrine (1:100,000 concentration) reduced the incidence of hypotension after epidural anesthesia with alkalinized lidocaine. IMPLICATIONS Hypotension after epidural anesthesia is common in general clinical practice. Phenylephrine administered epidurally in combination with alkalinized lidocaine may reduce the incidence of hypotension.

Abstract
Adenocarcinoma of the gallbladder combined with a malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST) in the gallbladder in an 81-year-old woman is reported. The resected gallbladder showed two distinct tumor components, the epithelioid type of MPNST and adenocarcinoma with areas of mucin production. Although the immediate postoperative course was uneventful, a pathologic fracture of her right upper femur developed 4 months after the cholecystectomy. The pathology was determined to be a feature of metastatic MPNST rather than of adenocarcinoma. A whole body bone scan revealed multiple metastases, including the left parietal skull, left ninth rib, seventh thoracic vertebra, and right upper third of the femur. Despite cholecystectomy and postoperative irradiation therapy, she died 6 months after diagnosis of the tumor. Without an autopsy the primary site of the MPNST was unknown. We found that the prognosis was very poor in patients with distal metastatic MPNST, especially in older patients.

Abstract
Pathogenic species of Neisseria were identified more readily by carbohydrate degradation tests when 0.5% glucose was used in media from which inocula for the test were obtained. This improved the performance of both non-growth and growth-dependent methods for these tests. One of the three techniques used a non-nutrient buffered salt solution and depended on the presence of preformed enzymes. This test was more accurate and rapid than the two growth-dependent techniques.

Abstract
Cells of Pseudomonas aeruginosa suspended in 0.2 M Mg(2+), 20% sucrose, 0.01 M tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane, or water partially release lipopolysaccharide. The release of alkaline phosphatase from the periplasmic space and the ability to form spheroplasts on lysozyme treatment is directly related to the lipopolysaccharide released during treatment with 0.2 M Mg(2+), 20% sucrose, or other agents. The synthesis of ribonucleic acid (RNA) by intact cells, magnesium-lysozyme spheroplasts, or 20% sucrose-lysozyme spheroplasts is not sensitive to actinomycin D, whereas RNA synthesis by intact cells or spheroplasts in the presence of ethylene-diaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) is sensitive to actinomycin D. EDTA alone has an inhibitory effect on RNA synthesis by whole cell, by magnesium-lysozyme spheroplasts, and by 20% sucrose-lysozyme spheroplasts. The experimental data indicate that, although the cell wall is damaged by 0.2 M Mg(2+) or 20% sucrose treatment in the presence of lysozyme, the treated cells or spheroplasts are still resistant to actinomycin D. These results suggest that the cytoplasmic membrane should be considered as the final and determinative barrier to this antibiotic in this organism.
