Growth factors improve gene expression after lentiviral transduction in human adult and fetal hepatocytes

BACKGROUND: Lentiviral vectors may be vectors of choice for transducing liver cells; they mediate integration in quiescent cells and offer potential for long-term expression. In adult liver, hepatocytes are generally mitotically quiescent. There has been controversy as to the necessity for lentiviral vector target cells to be in the cell cycle; currently, there is consensus that effective transduction can be achieved in quiescent hepatocytes, by using virus at high titre. However, transduction approaches which reduce the multiplicities of infection (MOIs) required provide potential benefit of cost and safety for therapeutic use. METHODS: We used two late-generation HIV-based lentiviral vector systems (pHR-SIN-cppT SGW and pRRLSIN.cPPT.PGK.WPRE) encoding LacZ/GFP reporter genes to transduce adult and fetal human hepatocytes in vitro + /- growth factors, hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and epidermal growth factor (EGF). Green fluorescent protein (GFP) expression was observed microscopically, and quantified by fluorescence spectrometry for protein expression, fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) analysis to identify the proportion of cells expressing GFP, and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for number of integrations. RESULTS: Gene expression following lentiviral transduction of human liver cells in vitro was markedly enhanced by the growth factors HGF and EGF. In adult cells growth factors led to a greater proportion of cells expressing more GFP per cell, from more integration events. In human fetal cells, the proportion of transduced hepatocytes remained identical, but cells expressed more GFP protein. CONCLUSIONS: This has implications for the design of regimes for liver cell gene therapy, allowing marked reduction of MOIs, and reducing both cost and risk of viral-mediated toxicity.

Construction of a lentiviral T/A vector for direct analysis of PCR-amplified promoters

The promoter plays an important role in the regulation of gene expression. To analyze a promoter’s activity, we developed a novel lentiviral T/A vector that contains two reporter genes, a luciferase (Luc2) gene and a green fluorescent protein (Venus) gene, that are linked via an internal ribosome entry site (IRES2). To test the performance of this vector, phosphoglycerate kinase-1 (PGK) and elongation factor-1α (EF1α) promoters were amplified by PCR and inserted into this lentiviral T/A vector using T4 DNA ligase, yielding two promoter–reporter vectors: pLent-T-PGK and pLent-T-EF1α. When these vectors were transfected into 293T cells, we observed a higher level of Venus expression under a fluorescence microscopy in the case of pLent-T-EF1α as compared to pLent-T-PGK. The results of the luciferase reporter assay showed that the ratio of the promoter activities of EF1α and PGK was approximately 9:1. The two promoter–reporter vectors were also packaged as lentiviral particles to conduct promoter activity assay in cultured cells. The ratio of the promoter activities of EF1α and PGK was 4.23:1 when they were infected into 293T cells at a multiplicity of infection of 1. This value is comparable to that of a parallel experiment using the commercial luciferase reporter vector pGL4.10 with an activity ratio of 5.99:1 for EF1α and PGK. These results indicate that lentiviral T/A vector will be a useful tool for analysis of promoter activity and specificity.
