Previous studies have shown that the choice of envelope
protein (pseudotype) can have a significant effect on the efficiency of
retroviral gene transfer into hematopoietic stem cells. This study used
a competitive repopulation assay in the dog model to evaluate
oncoretroviral vectors carrying the envelope protein of the endogenous
feline virus, RD114. CD34-enriched marrow cells were divided into equal
aliquots and transduced with vectors produced by the RD114-pseudotype
packaging cells FLYRD (LgGLSN and LNX) or by the gibbon ape leukemia
virus (GALV)-pseudotype packaging cells PG13 (LNY). A total of 5 dogs
were studied. One dog died because of infection before sustained
engraftment could be achieved, and monitoring was discontinued after 9 months in another animal that had very low overall gene-marking levels.
The 3 remaining animals are alive with follow-ups at 11, 22, and 23 months. Analyses of gene marking frequencies in peripheral blood and
marrow by polymerase chain reaction revealed no significant differences between the RD114 and GALV-pseudotype vectors. The LgGLSN vector also
contained the enhanced green fluorescent protein (GFP), enabling us to
monitor proviral expression by flow cytometry. Up to 10% of peripheral
blood cells expressed GFP shortly after transplantation and
approximately 6% after the longest follow-up of 23 months. Flow
cytometric analysis of hematopoietic subpopulations showed that most of
the GFP-expressing cells were granulocytes, although GFP-positive
lymphocytes and monocytes were also detected. In summary, these results
show that RD114-pseudotype oncoretroviral vectors are able to transduce
hematopoietic long-term repopulating cells and, thus, may be useful for
human stem cell gene therapy.
