Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We conducted gene therapy development research using stealth RNA vectors (SRV) for severe combined immunodeficiency. We have demonstrated that SRV can introduce genes into mouse hematopoietic stem cells/hematopoietic progenitor cells and CD34-positive cells derived from human umbilical cord blood efficiently. Differentiation of hematopoietic cells was confirmed by colony assay. When genes were introduced into common gamma chain-deficient cells using SRV, expression of the common gamma chain was achieved, and phosphorylation of STAT5 was confirmed upon stimulation with IL-2. Since it was sometimes difficult to maintain the proliferation of gene-transfected cells over a long period of time, we improved SRV and conducted a similar analysis. We will continue to improve SRV and apply it to other diseases.
