Systemic modified messenger RNA for replacement therapy in alpha 1-antitrypsin deficiency
Open accessAbstract
Alpha 1-antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency arises from an inherited mutation in the SERPINA1 gene. The disease causes damage in the liver where the majority of the AAT protein is produced. Lack of functioning circulating AAT protein also causes uninhibited elastolytic activity in the lungs leading to AAT deficiency-related emphysema. The only therapy apart from liver transplantation is augmentation with human AAT protein pooled from sera, which is only reserved for patients with advanced lung disease caused by severe AAT deficiency. We tested modified mRNA encoding human AAT in primary human hepatocytes in culture, including hepatocytes from AAT deficient patients. Both expression and functional activity were investigated. Secreted AAT protein increased from 1,14 to 3,43 µg/ml in media from primary human hepatocytes following mRNA treatment as investigated by ELISA and western blot. The translated protein showed activity and protease inhibitory function as measured by elastase activity assay. Also, mRNA formulation in lipid nanoparticles was assessed for systemic delivery in both wild type mice and the NSG-PiZ transgenic mouse model of AAT deficiency. Systemic intravenous delivery of modified mRNA led to hepatic uptake and translation into a functioning protein in mice. These data support the use of systemic mRNA therapy as a potential treatment for AAT deficiency.

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.
