Problems solved by technology

[0031] However, the limitations of the use of plasmid vectors in gene therapy are: 1) the presence of antibiotic resistance genes for the production of constructs in bacterial strains; 2) the presence of various regulatory elements represented by viral genome sequences; 3 ) The length of the therapeutic plasmid vector that determines the efficiency of vector delivery to target cells
Disadvantages of the invention include limited further implementation of the invention in the treatment of neurological disorders, and the use of genetically modified cells to increase VIP and CGRP expression, but not DNA vectors expressing these genes

Embodiment 1

[0228] Generation of gene therapy DNA vector VTvaf17-NOS2 carrying a therapeutic gene (ie NOS2 gene).

[0229] The gene therapy DNA vector VTvaf17-NOS2 was constructed by cloning the coding region (3466bp) of the NOS2 gene into the 3165bp DNA vector VTvaf17 by SalI and KpnI restriction sites. By isolating total RNA from biological human tissue samples, followed by a reverse transcription reaction using the commercial kit Mint-2 (Evrogen, Russia), and using the following oligonucleotides as well as commercially available kits High-fidelity DNA polymerase (New England Biolabs, USA) for PCR amplification

Abstract

The invention refers to genetic engineering and can be used in biotechnology, medicine, and agriculture for the manufacture of gene therapy products. Gene therapy DNA vector based on the gene therapy DNA vector VTvaflV carrying the therapeutic gene selected from the group of NOS2, NOS3, VIP, KCNMA1, and CGRP genes is constructed in order to increase the expression level of this therapeutic gene in humans and animals, while gene therapy DNA vector VTvafl7-NOS2, or VTvaflV- NOS3, or VTvafl7-VIP, or VTvafl7-KCNMAl, or VTvafl7-CGRP has the nucleotide sequence SEQ ID No. 1, or SEQ ID No. 2, or SEQ ID No. 3, or SEQ ID No. 4, or SEQ ID No. 5, respectively. Each of the constructed gene therapy DNA vectors, namely VTvafl7-NOS2, or VTvafl7-NOS3, or VTvafl7-VIP, or VTvafl7-KCNMAl, or VTvafl7-CGRP has the ability to efficiently penetrate into cells and express the therapeutic gene selected from the group of NOS2, NOS3, VIP, KCNMA1, and CGRP genes, respectively, and cloned to it due to the limited size of VTvafl7 vector part not exceeding 3200 bp. The gene therapy DNA vector contains no nucleotide sequences of viral origin and no antibiotic resistance genes, which ensures its safe use for gene therapy in humans and animals.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to genetic engineering and can be used in biotechnology, medicine and agriculture for the manufacture of gene therapy products. Background technique [0002] Gene therapy is an innovative approach in medicine aimed at treating inherited and acquired diseases by delivering new genetic material into a patient's cells to compensate or suppress the function of mutated genes and / or treat genetic disorders. The end products of gene expression can be RNA molecules or protein molecules. However, most physiological processes in the body are related to the functional activity of protein molecules, while RNA molecules are either intermediate products of protein synthesis or perform regulatory functions. Thus, in most cases, the goal of gene therapy is to infuse organisms with genes that provide for the transcription and further translation of the protein molecules encoded by these genes. In the description of the present invention,...
