High AAV vector purity results in serotype- and tissue-independent enhancement of transduction efficiency

Abstract

The purity of adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector preparations has important implications for both safety and efficacy of clinical gene transfer. Early-stage screening of candidates for AAV-based therapeutics ideally requires a purification method that is flexible and also provides vectors comparable in purity and potency to the prospective investigational product manufactured for clinical studies. The use of cesium chloride (CsCl) gradient-based protocols provides the flexibility for purification of different serotypes; however, a commonly used first-generation CsCl-based protocol was found to result in AAV vectors containing large amounts of protein and DNA impurities and low transduction efficiency in vitro and in vivo. Here, we describe and characterize an optimized, second-generation CsCl protocol that incorporates differential precipitation of AAV particles by polyethylene glycol, resulting in higher yield and markedly higher vector purity that correlated with better transduction efficiency observed with several AAV serotypes in multiple tissues and species. Vectors purified by the optimized CsCl protocol were found to be comparable in purity and functional activity to those prepared by more scalable, but less flexible serotype-specific purification processes developed for manufacture of clinical vectors, and are therefore ideally suited for pre-clinical studies supporting translational research.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Steady-state levels of lanosterol, lathosterol, and desmosterol were reduced in the striata of R6/2-Tom mice compared with wt-Tom mice.

    “As expected, the steady-state levels of all cholesterol precursors were reduced in the striata of R6/2-Tom mice compared with wt-Tom mice (Fig. 2H-J) 19,20,27,28 .”
  • All three doses of cholesterol infused directly into the striata of R6/2 mice through osmotic mini-pumps prevented cognitive defects, while only the highest dose attenuated motor phenotypes.

    “Indeed, we demonstrated that all three doses prevented cognitive defects, while only the highest dose attenuated motor phenotypes 28 .”
  • Enhanced cholesterol biosynthesis may participate in inducing clearance pathways.

    “At the neuropathological level, increased hSREBP2 in the striatum of R6/2 mice reduced the number and size of muHTT aggregates, supporting the notion that enhanced cholesterol biosynthesis may participate in inducing clearance pathways, as we recently showed in the striata of HD mice following striatal infusion of cholesterol through osmotic mini-pumps 28 .”
  • Similar data were obtained upon cholesterol delivery to the brain of this mouse model via brain-permeable polymeric nanoparticles or mini-pumps.

    “Similar data were obtained upon cholesterol delivery to the brain of this mouse model via brain-permeable polymeric nanoparticles or mini-pumps 27,28 .”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
