[0053] Vector production

[0054] We use human ( Figure 6) and mouse (sequence not shown) podocin cDNA (Origene, Herford, Germany) and human VDR and Smad7 cDNA, pAV.hNPHS1.mpodHA.WPRE was prepared from the CMV eGFP L22Y pUC-AV2 construct (a kind gift of Amit Nathwani) .bGH, pAV.mNPHS1.mpodHA.WPRE.bGH and pAV.hNPHS1.hpodHA.WPRE.bGH ( Figure 1A ) pAV.mNPHS1.hHAVDR.WPRE.bGH and pAV.mNPHS1.hHASmad7.WPRE.bGH. Human embryonic kidney 293T cells were transfected with capsid plasmids (pAAV9 from Penn Vector Core, pAAV LK03 was a kind gift from Mark Kay), helper plasmids with adenovirus genes, and transgenic plasmids using polyethyleneimine. Cells and supernatants were harvested 72 hours after transfection. Cells were subjected to 5 freeze-thaw cycles, while supernatants were subjected to PEG precipitation (8% PEG 0.5N NaCl). These were combined and incubated with 0.25% sodium deoxycholate and 70 units / ml Benzonase at 37°C for 30 minutes. Vector was purified by io...

Abstract

The present invention provides an adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector gene therapy for use in treating a monogenic form of nephrotic syndrome, wherein the AAV vector comprises a NS-associated transgene and minimal nephrin promoter NPHS1 or podocin promoter NPHS2.

Description

[0001] field of invention [0002] The present invention relates to gene therapy for the treatment of monogenic forms of nephrotic syndrome. [0003] Background of the invention [0004] Nephrotic syndrome (NS) is a chronic kidney disease characterized by marked proteinuria, hypoalbuminemia, edema, and hyperlipidemia, and is the most common primary glomerular disease in children, occurring in It affects 2 / 100,000 children under 16 in Europe and the United States. NS is associated with different ages of onset, from less than 3 months of age at diagnosis to early adulthood, and into distinct patient populations based on their sensitivity to corticosteroids: approximately 80% of children with NS are classified as having corticosteroids Sensitive nephrotic syndrome (SSNS) and can be successfully treated with corticosteroid therapy. A subset of patients originally classified as SSNS relapses and requires further steroid therapy, and an additional 10-15% of NS patients do not achie...
