Article Abstract

Developments in vector design using tissue-specific and tumor-specific promoters have led to significant improvements in tumor-targeting strategies. These developments combined with the ability to monitor gene expression by molecular imaging have facilitated the detection and prolonged monitoring of disease progression in small-animal models. Bioluminescence imaging offers a convenient and sensitive platform for monitoring gene expression patterns in preclinical models of gene therapy. Targeting a specific subset of cells/tissues via systemic delivery of vectors would be highly beneficial in gene therapy protocols. Using a two-step transcriptional amplification (TSTA)-based lentiviral vector (LV-TSTA), we demonstrate specific targeting of prostate tumors in vivo after systemic administration of lentivirus. Four days after intravenous administration of LV-TSTA into adult severe combined immunodeficient (SCID) mice (n=5) carrying subcutaneous prostate tumors, we found significant levels of transduction at the tumor site when compared with other organs (p<0.05). Gene expression was sustained in the tumor for up to 3 weeks (7.3x10(4)+/-2x10(4) photons/ sec/cm2/steradian (p/sec/cm2/sr) on day 4 and 7.0x10(4)+/-4x10(4) p/sec/cm2/sr on day 21). Low levels of transduction were also observed in the spleen and liver (5.0x10(2)+/-1.7x10(2) p/sec/cm2/sr). The results from this study support the use of TSTA-based lentiviral vectors for prostate tumor targeting after systemic delivery. Noninvasive imaging using such vectors should be useful for monitoring long-term gene expression in gene therapy applications.

Background: Cannabinoid administration has demonstrated promising anti-tumor effects for glioblastoma (GBM) by inhibiting glioma cell proliferation and inducing glioma cell death. However, the impact of cannabinoids and endocannabinoid receptors on immune cells within the tumor microenvironment (TME) remains largely unexplored. Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), the most abundant immune cells in the TME, and their mediated phagocytosis of tumor cells have shown potential in preclinical xenografts of various human malignancies.
