Definitions
- Stroke is the leading cause of serious, long-term disability in the United States. Stroke accounts for half of all patients hospitalized for acute neurological disease. In 1991-92 one million Americans age 15 and older had disabilities resulting from stroke. According to the Framingham Heart Study, 31 percent of brain attack survivors needed help caring for themselves; 20 percent needed help walking; and 71 percent had an impaired ability to work when examined an average of seven years later. Sixteen percent had to be institutionalized. About 31 percent of people who have an initial stroke die within a year. This percentage is higher among people older than age 65. About two-thirds of men and women who have a brain attack die within 12 years; long-term survivorship is worse in men than in women. 407,000 males and 478,000 females were discharged from hospitals in 1994 after having a stroke. For statistics, see for example the homepage for the American Heart Association at http://www.amhrt.org/1997/stats/Stroke.html
- Stroke is defined as a sudden impairment of body functions caused by a disruption in, e.g., the supply of blood to the brain. For instance, a stroke occurs when a blood vessel bringing oxygen and nutrients to the brain is interrupted by any method including low blood pressure, clogging by atherosclerotic plaque, a blood clot, or some other particle, or when a blood vessel bursts.
- Brain tissue that receives an inadequate supply of blood is said to be ischemic.
- nerve cells and other cell types within the brain begin to fail, creating an infarct (an area of cell death, or necrosis).
- nerve cells nerve cells
- necrosis an area of cell death, or necrosis.
- nerve cells nerve cells
- the devastating effects of ischemia are often permanent because brain tissue has very limited repair capabilities and lost neurons are not usually replaced.
- Cerebral ischemia may be incomplete (blood flow is reduced but not entirely cut off), complete (total loss of tissue perfusion), transient or permanent. If ischemia is incomplete and persists for no more than ten to fifteen minutes, neural death might not occur. More prolonged or complete ischemia results in infarction. Depending on the site and extent of the infarction, mild to severe neurological disability or death will follow. Thus, the chain of causality leading to neurological deficit in stroke has two principal components: loss of blood supply, and cell damage and death.
- Thrombosis is the blockage of an artery by a large deposit that usually results from the combination of atherosclerosis and blood clotting.
- Thrombotic stroke also called cerebral thrombosis results when a deposit in a brain or neck artery reaches occlusive proportions. Most strokes are of this type.
- Embolism is the blockage of an artery or vein by an embolus. Emboli are often small pieces of blood clot that break off from larger clots. Embolic stroke (also called cerebral embolism) occurs when an embolus is carried in the bloodstream to a brain or neck artery. If the embolus reaches an artery that is too small for it to pass through, it plugs the artery and cuts off the blood supply to downstream tissues. Embolic stroke is the clinical expression of this event.
- the brain is protected against cerebral ischemia by compensatory mechanisms that include: collateral circulation (overlapping local blood supplies), and arteriolar auto-regulation (local smooth muscle control of blood flow in the smallest arterial channels). If compensatory mechanisms operate efficiently, slightly diminished cerebral blood flow produces neither tissue ischemia nor abnormal signs and symptoms. Usually, such mechanisms must act within minutes to restore blood flow if permanent infarction damage is to be avoided or reduced. Arteriolar auto-regulation works by shunting blood from noncritical regions to infarct zones.
- a transient ischemic attack is conventionally described as a loss of neurologic function caused by ischemia, abrupt in onset, persisting for less than 24 hours, and clearing without residual signs. Most TIAs last only a few minutes. However, neurologic disability may persist for more than 24 hours before clearing. Such an event is called a reversible ischemic neurological disability (RIND).
- RIND reversible ischemic neurological disability
- PNS partial nonprogressing stroke
- Focal cerebral ischemia must be distinguished from global cerebral hypoxia. In cerebral hypoxia the oxygen supply to the brain is diminished even though blood flow and blood pressure may be normal. Discriminating between diagnoses of patients with acute neurological deficit is critical because patient management takes disparate paths.
- hypoxia cerebral hypoxia
- hypoxia patients who survive past an acute life-threatening period usually show few immediate symptoms of long term damage. Instead, clinical manifestations such as mental deterioration, urinary and fecal incontinence, gait and speech disturbances, tremor and weakness are delayed for periods that may vary from days to weeks.
- progressive loss of neurons due to oxygen deprivation is believed to be a factor in such detrimental effects of hypoxia.
- One aspect of the present application relates to a method for limiting damage to neuronal cells by ischemic or epoxic conditions, e.g., such as may be manifest by a reduction in brain infarct volume, by administering to an individual a hedgehog therapeutic or ptc therapeutic in an amount effective for reducing cerebral infarct volume relative to the absence of administeration of the hedgehog therapeutic or ptc therapeutic.
- the subject method can be used for protecting cerebral tissue of a mammal against the repercussions of ischemia; for treating cerebral infarctions; for treating cerebral ischemia; for treatment of stroke; and/or for treating transient ischemia attacks.
- such therapeutics are preferably small organic molecules which mimic hedgehog effects onpatched-mediated signals.
- the hedgehog therapeutic preferably a polypeptide including a hedgehog portion comprising at least a bioactive extracellular portion of a hedgehog protein, e.g., the hedgehog portion includes at least 50, 100 or 150 amino acid residues of an N-terminal half of a hedgehog protein.
- the hedgehog portion includes at least a portion of the hedgehog protein corresponding to a 19 kd fragment of the extracellular domain of a hedgehog protein.
- the hedgehog portion has an amino acid sequence at least 60, 75, 85, or 95 percent identical with a hedgehog protein of any of SEQ ID Nos. 10-18, though sequences identical to those sequence listing entries are also contemplated as useful in the present method.
- the hedgehog portion can be encoded by a nucleic acid which hybridizes under stringent conditions to a nucleic acid sequence of any of SEQ ID Nos. 1-9, e.g., the hedgehog portion can be encoded by a vertebrate hedgehog gene, especially a human hedgehog gene.
- the subject method can be carried out by administering a gene activation construct, wherein the gene activation construct is designed to recombine with a genomic hedgehog gene of the patient to provide a heterologous transcriptional regulatory sequence operatively linked to a coding sequence of the hedgehog gene.
- the subject method can be practiced with the administration of a gene therapy construct encoding a hedgehog polypeptide.
- the gene therapy construct can be provided in a composition selected from a group consisting of a recombinant viral particle, a liposome, and a poly-cationic nucleic acid binding agent.
- the therapeutic can be, e.g., a molecule which binds to patched and mimics hedgehog-mediated patched signal transduction.
- the binding of the therapeutic to patched may result in upregulation of patched and/or gli expression.
- the ptc therapeutic mimics hedgehog-mediated patched signal transduction by altering the localization, protein-protein binding and/or enzymatic activity of an intracellular protein involved in a patched signal pathway.
- the ptc therapeutic is a small organic molecule, e.g., less than 5 kd, more preferably less than 2.5 kd.
- the present invention contemplates the use of small organic molecules which interact with neuronal cells to mimic hedgehog-mediated patched signal transduction.
- the ptc therapeutic is a PKA inhibitor.
- PKA inhibitors are known in the art, including both peptidyl and organic compounds.
- the ptc therapeutic can be a 5-isoquinolinesulfonamide, such as represented in the general formula:
- R 1 and R 2 each can independently represent hydrogen, and as valence and stability permit a lower alkyl, a lower alkenyl, a lower alkynyl, a carbonyl (such as a carboxyl, an ester, a formate, or a ketone), a thiocarbonyl (such as a thioester, a thioacetate, or a thioformate), an amino, an acylamino, an amido, a cyano, a nitro, an azido, a sulfate, a sulfonate, a sulfonamido, —(CH 2 ) m —R 8 , —(CH 2 ) m —OH, —(CH 2 ) m —O-lower alkyl, —(CH 2 ) m —O-lower alkenyl, —(CH 2 ) n —O—(CH 2 ) n
- R 3 is absent or represents one or more substitutions to the isoquinoline ring such as a lower alkyl, a lower alkenyl, a lower alkynyl, a carbonyl (such as a carboxyl, an ester, a formate, or a ketone), a thiocarbonyl (such as a thioester, a thioacetate, or a thioformate), an amino, an acylamino, an amido, a cyano, a nitro, an azido, a sulfate, a sulfonate, a sulfonamido, —(CH 2 ) m —R 8 , —(CH 2 ) m —OH, —(CH 2 ) m —O-lower alkyl, —(CH 2 ) m —O-lower alkenyl, —(CH 2 ) n —O—(CH
- R 8 represents a substituted or unsubstituted aryl, aralkyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, or heterocycle
- n and m are independently for each occurrence zero or an integer in the range of 1 to 6.
- Exemplary PKA inhibitors of this class include N-[2-((p-bromocinnamyl)amino)ethyl]-5-isoquinoline-sulfonamide and 1-(5-isoquinolinesulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine.
- Other PKA inhibitors which can be used in the subject method include KT5720; and PKA Heat Stable Inhibitor (isoform ⁇ ).
- the ptc therapeutic alters the level of expression of a hedgehog protein, a patched protein or another protein involved in the intracellular signal transduction pathway of patched.
- the ptc therapeutic can be an antisense construct which inhibits the expression of a protein which is involved in the signal transduction pathway of patched and the expression of which antagonizes hedgehog-mediated signals.
- the antisense molecule can be one which hyridizes to a patched transcript or genomic sequence, such as 5′-GTCCTGGCGCCGCCGCCGCCGTCGCC, 5′-TTCCGATG-ACCGGCCTTTCGCGGTGA or 5′-GTGCACGGAAAGGTGCAGGCCACACT.
- the subject method can be carried out with a gene activation construct, which construct recombines with a genomic hedgehog gene of the patient, e.g., to form a chimeric gene, providing a heterologous transcriptional regulatory sequence operatively linked to a coding sequence of the hedgehog gene.
- the transcriptional regulatory sequence can provide for constitutive or inducible expression of the hedgehog gene.
- the subject method can be used as part of a treatment for stroke, e.g., thrombotic stroke and/or embolic stroke.
- the subject method can also be used to treat hypoxic conditions which otherwise result in cerebral hypoxia.
- the subject method can be used prophylactically or as an ipso facto treatment. It can be used to treat patients who are hypotensive.
- the subject method can also be used as part of a therapy including administering one or more of an anticoagulant, an antiplatelet agent, a thrombin inhibitor, and/or a thrombolytic agent, and/or in conjunction with vascular surgery, e.g., carotid endarterectomy.
- the subject method results in at least a 25%, 50%, 70%, 75%, or 90% reduction in cerebral infarct volumes relative to the absence of treatment with the therapeutic, e.g., as measured in a stroke model such as the MCAO model.
- FIG. 1 is a graph demonstrating the effect of systemic hedgehog treatment on cerebral infarction volume in rat models of middle cerebral artery occlusion.
- Stroke occurs when the flow of oxygen and nutrients to the brain is inhibited/interrupted due to any cause.
- stroke is a form interrupted of cardiovascular disease that affects the arteries of the central nervous system.
- a stroke occurs when a blood vessel bringing oxygen and nutrients to the brain bursts or is clogged by a blood clot or some other particle. Because of this rupture or blockage, part of the brain doesn't get the flow of blood it needs. Deprived of oxygen, nerve cells in the affected area of the brain can't function and die within minutes. Depending on the part of the brain affected by the brain attack/stroke, there may be loss of normal function. Strokes are the third most common cause of death in United States. Stroke is the most common cause of disability of all conditions in adults.
- the goal of therapy is prevention of stroke. If a stroke occurs, the goal of therapy changes to the limiting of damage. Preventing stroke and limiting the damage of stroke are currently carried out in the art through medication or surgery. In both cases, the treatment involves reducing or removing blocks, building up in blood vessels and preventing further cell death about neuronal populations. These treatments include the use of (a) anticoagulants, (b) antiplatelet agents, and (c) vascular surgery. For instance, anticoagulation drug therapy inhibits the coagulation process. Heparin, which inhibits enzymes and platelets that cause clots, is used in acute settings.
- warfarin offers anticoagulation by stopping production of Vitamin K dependent coagulation factors.
- both drugs there runs a risk of hemorrhage and is only used for ischemic strokes. Strokes involving certain areas also do not warrant this therapy.
- Another therapy known in the art, antiplatelet therapy with aspirin provides one of the most important preventive tools available.
- aspirin has been shown to reduce the incidence of stroke. Specifically, low doses of aspirin block the production of a chemical called thromboxane. Thromboxane's function is to activate platelets to bind together and thus form blood clots.
- carotid endarterectomy is the surgical procedure where the plaque at the origin of the carotid artery is removed. This is the treatment of choice of patients with TIA's caused by embolism, low flow, and with minor strokes due to narrowing greater than 70% of the internal carotid.
- the present application is directed to compositions and methods for the prevention and treatment of ischemic injury to the brain, such as resulting from stroke.
- the invention derives, at least in part, from the observation of a protective effect by the so called “hedgehog” proteins on animal stroke models.
- hedgehog proteins on animal stroke models.
- bFGF basic fibroblast growth factor
- a second model (Jiang et al. (1995) Stroke 26:1-40), utilized mature Wistar rates which underwent temporary occlusion of the middle cerebral artery by intra-arterial suture for two hours.
- bFGF 45 ⁇ g/kg/hr
- vehicle were infused intravenously over three hours.
- infarct volume was significantly reduced in the bFGF treated animals (approximately 40% reduction in infarct volume), and only the bFGF treated animals regained their weight after surgery.
- the present invention provides pharmaceutical preparations and methods for preventing/treating cerebral ischemia and the like utilizing, as an active ingredient, a hedgehog polypeptide or a mimetic thereof.
- the subject hedgehog treatments are effective on both human and animal subjects afflicted with these conditions.
- Animal subjects to which the invention is applicable extend to both domestic animals and livestock, raised either as pets or for commercial purposes. Examples are dogs, cats, cattle, horses, sheep, hogs and goats.
- the reduction in infarct size in the present studies may be due at least in part to the ability of hedgehog proteins to antagonize (directly or indirectly) patched-mediated regulation of gene expression and other physiological effects mediated by the patched gene.
- the patched gene product a cell surface protein, is understood to signal through a pathway which regulates transcription of a variety of genes involved in neuronal cell development.
- the introduction of hedgehog relieves (derepresses) this inhibition conferred by patched, allowing expression of particular gene programs.
- the present invention contemplates the use of other agents which are capable of mimicking the effect of the hedgehog protein on patched signalling, e.g., as may be identified from the drug screening assays described below.
- a “stroke” is a sudden loss of function caused by a cutoff in the blood supply to the brain. Stroke presents with different levels of severity ranging from “transient ischemic attack” or “TIA” (no permanent disability), to “partial nonprogressing stroke” (persistent but no calamitous damage), to “complete stroke” (permanent, calamitous neurological deficit). Ischemia (diminished or stopped blood flow) and infarction (cell damage and death within the zone of ischemia) are the pathologic processes in stroke that lead to neurologic deficits.
- Ischemic stroke is caused by an obstruction of blood vessels supplying the brain.
- the primary subcategories of ischemic stroke are thrombotic stroke, embolic stroke and lacunar infarctions.
- Hemorrhagic stroke is caused by the rupture of blood vessels supplying the brain.
- the primary subcategories of hemorrhagic stroke are subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH).
- ischemic damage refers to a reduction in the biological capability of a neuronal cell, including cell death, induced by a reduced blood flow, or an otherwise reduced level of oxygen to the affected neuronal cells, whether it be the result of ischemic stroke, hemmorrhagic stroke, hypoxia or the like.
- hedgehog therapeutic refers to various forms of hedgehog polypeptides, as well as peptidomimetics, which are neuroprotective for neuronal cells, and in particular, enhance the survival of neurons under ischemic and/or epoxic conditions. These include naturally occurring forms of hedgehog proteins, as well as modified or mutant forms generated by molecular biological techniques, chemical synthesis, etc. While in preferred embodiments the hedgehog polypeptide is derived from a vertebrate homolog, cross-sepcies activity reported in the literature supports the use of hedgehog peolypeptides from invertebrate organisms as well.

- protection from damage to neural tissue it is meant reduction in the total stroke volume and/or infarct volume resulting from, e.g., ischemic or hypoxic conditions, preferably as manifested by less neurological and/or cognitive deficits.
- Homology and identity each refer to sequence similarity between two polypeptide sequences, with identity being a more strict comparison. Homology and identity can each be determined by comparing a position in each sequence which, may be aligned for purposes of comparison. When a position in the compared sequence is occupied by the same amino acid residue, then the polypeptides can be referred to as identical at that position; when the equivalent site is occupied by the same amino acid (e.g., identical) or a similar amino acid (e.g., similar in steric and/or electronic nature), then the molecules can be referred to as homologous at that position. A percentage of homology or identity between sequences is a function of the number of matching or homologous positions shared by the sequences. An “unrelated” or “non-homologous” sequence shares less than 40 percent identity, though preferably less than 25 percent identity, with an AR sequence of the present invention.
- heterologous protein and “exogenous protein” are used interchangeably throughout the specification and refer to a polypeptide which is produced by recombinant DNA techniques, wherein generally, DNA encoding the polypeptide is inserted into a suitable expression construct which is in turn used to transform a host cell to produce the heterologous protein.

- Transcriptional regulatory sequence is a generic term used throughout the specification to refer to DNA sequences, such as initiation signals, enhancers, and promoters, as well as polyadenylation sites, which induce or control transcription of protein (or antisense) coding sequences with which they are operably linked.
- transcription of a recombinant gene is under the control of a promoter sequence (or other transcriptional regulatory sequence) which controls the expression of the recombinant gene in a cell-type in which expression is intended. It will also be understood that the recombinant gene can be under the control of transcriptional regulatory sequences which are the same or which are different from those sequences which control transcription of the naturally-occurring form of the regulatory protein.

- the ptc or hedeghog therapeutic is administered systemically initially (i.e., while the blood brain barrier is disrupted), then locally for medium to long term care.
- the clinician When used to treat stroke, the clinician should not only define the level of stroke severity, but also the “pace” or “tempo” of the illness. This is because the pace of progression helps to dictate the urgency for evaluation and treatment.
- a patient who suffers a TIA in the morning has a higher risk for stroke in the afternoon than a patient who suffered a single TIA a month earlier.
- the subject hedgehog and ptc therapeutics can be used prophylatically in order to minimize ischemic damage which may result from an eventual stroke.
- a patient who is worsening under supervision requires more urgent management than one who has been stable for a week or more.
- the subject method may also find particular utility in treating or preventing the adverse neurological consequences of surgery.

- Potential hedgehog and ptc therapeutics can be tested by measuring the volume of cerebral infarction in animals receiving systemic injections. For instance, selected agents can be evaluated in the focal stroke model involving permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) in the spontaneously hypertensive rat. This procedure results in a reliably large neocortical infarct volume that is measured by means of vital dye exclusion in serial slices through the brain 24 hours after MCAO. Tamura et al. (1981) J Cerebral Blood Flow and Metabolism 1:53-60.
- MCAO middle cerebral artery occlusion
- the middle cerebral artery is the cerebral blood vessel most susceptible to stroke in humans.

- Another preferred hedgehog polypeptide which can be included in the hedgehog therapeutic is an N-terminal fragment of the mature protein having a molecular weight of approximately 19 kDa.
- Preferred human hedgehog proteins include N-terminal fragments corresponding approximately to residues 24-197 of SEQ ID No. 15 and 28-202 of SEQ ID No. 16.
- corresponding approximately it is meant that the sequence of interest is at most 20 amino acid residues different in length to the reference sequence, though more preferably at most 5, 10 or 15 amino acid different in length.
- Still other preferred hedgehog polypeptides include an amino acid sequence represented by the formula A-B wherein: (i) A represents all or the portion of the amino acid sequence designated by residues 1-168 of SEQ ID No:19; and B represents at least one amino acid residue of the amino acid sequence designated by residues 169-221 of SEQ ID No: 19; (ii) A represents all or the portion of the amino acid sequence designated by residues 24-193 of SEQ ID No: 15; and B represents at least one amino acid residue of the amino acid sequence designated by residues 194-250 of SEQ ID No:15; (iii) A represents all or the portion of the amino acid sequence designated by residues 25-193 of SEQ ID No:13; and B represents at least one amino acid residue of the amino acid sequence designated by residues 194-250 of SEQ ID No:13; (iv) A represents all or the portion of the amino acid sequence designated by residues 23-193 of SEQ ID No: 1; and B represents at least one amino acid residue of the amino acid sequence designated by residues
- Similar fragments from other hedgehog proteins are also contemplated, e.g., fragments which correspond to the preferred fragments from the sequence listing entries which are enumerated above.
- Isolated peptidyl portions of hedgehog proteins can be obtained by screening peptides recombinantly produced from the corresponding fragment of the nucleic acid encoding such peptides.
- fragments can be chemically synthesized using techniques known in the art such as conventional Merrifield solid phase f-Moc or t-Boc chemistry.
- a hedgehog polypeptide of the present invention may be arbitrarily divided into fragments of desired length with no overlap of the fragments, or preferably divided into overlapping fragments of a desired length.
- the fragments can be produced (recombinantly or by chemical synthesis) and tested to identify those peptidyl fragments which can function as agonists of a wild-type (e.g., “authentic”) hedgehog protein.
- a wild-type e.g., “authentic” hedgehog protein.
- Román et al. (1994) Eur J Biochem 222:65-73 describe the use of competitive-binding assays using short, overlapping synthetic peptides from larger proteins to identify binding domains.
- the recombinant hedgehog polypeptides of the present invention also include homologs of the authentic hedgehog proteins, such as versions of those protein which are resistant to proteolytic cleavage, as for example, due to mutations which alter potential cleavage sequences or which inactivate an enzymatic activity associated with the protein.
- Hedgehog homologs of the present invention also include proteins which have been post-translationally modified in a manner different than the authentic protein.
- Exemplary derivatives of hedgehog proteins include polypeptides which lack glycosylation sites (e.g., to produce an unglycosylated protein), which lack sites for cholesterolization, and/or which lack N-terminal and/or C-terminal sequences.
- Modification of the structure of the subject hedgehog polypeptides can also be for such purposes as enhancing therapeutic or prophylactic efficacy, or stability (e.g., ex vivo shelf life and resistance to proteolytic degradation in vivo).
- Such modified peptides when designed to retain at least one activity of the naturally-occurring form of the protein, are considered fuinctional equivalents of the hedgehog polypeptides described in more detail herein.
- Such modified peptides can be produced, for instance, by amino acid substitution, deletion, or addition.
- Whether a change in the amino acid sequence of a peptide results in a functional hedgehog homolog can be readily determined by assessing the ability of the variant peptide to produce a response in cells in a fashion similar to the wild-type protein, or competitively inhibit such a response.
- Polypeptides in which more than one replacement has taken place can readily be tested in the same manner.
- the methods of the present invention can be carried out using homologs of naturally occurring hedgehog proteins.
- the invention contemplates using hedgehog polypeptides generated by combinatorial mutagenesis. Such methods, as are known in the art, are convenient for generating both point and truncation mutants, and can be especially useful for identifying potential variant sequences (e.g., homologs) that are functional in binding to a receptor for hedgehog proteins.
- the purpose of screening such combinatorial libraries is to generate, for example, novel hedgehog homologs which can act as neuroprotective agents.
- hedgehog homologs can be engineered by the present method to provide more efficient binding to a cognate receptor, such as patched, retaining neuroprotective activity.
- combinatorially-derived homologs can be generated to have an increased potency relative to a naturally occurring form of the protein.
- manipulation of certain domains of hedgehog by the present method can provide domains more suitable for use in fusion proteins, such as one that incorporates portions of other proteins which are derived from the extracellular matrix and/or which bind extracellular matrix components.
- PCT publication WO92/15679 illustrate specific techniques which one skilled in the art could utilize to generate libraries of hedgehog variants which can be rapidly screened to identify variants/fragments which retained a particular activity of the hedgehog polypeptides. These techniques are exemplary of the art and demonstrate that large libraries of related variants/truncants can be generated and assayed to isolate particular variants without undue experimentation. Gustin et al. (1993) Virology 193:653, and Bass et al. (1990) Proteins:Structure, Function and Genetics 8:309-314 also describe other exemplary techniques from the art which can be adapted as means for generating mutagenic variants of hedgehog polypeptides.
- the amino acid sequences for a population of hedgehog homologs or other related proteins are aligned, preferably to promote the highest homology possible.
- a population of variants can include, for example, hedgehog homologs from one or more species.
- Amino acids which appear at each position of the aligned sequences are selected to create a degenerate set of combinatorial sequences.
- the variegated library of hedgehog variants is generated by combinatorial mutagenesis at the nucleic acid level, and is encoded by a.variegated gene library.
- a mixture of synthetic oligonucleotides can be enzymatically ligated into gene sequences such that the degenerate set of potential hedgehog sequences are expressible as individual polypeptides, or alternatively, as a set of larger fusion proteins (e.g., for phage display) containing the set of hedgehog sequences therein.
- amino acid sequences of interest can be aligned relative to sequence homology.
- the presence or absence of amino acids from an aligned sequence of a particular variant is relative to a chosen consensus length of a reference sequence, which can be real or artificial.
- each of the degenerate positions “X” can be an amino acid which occurs in that position in one of the human, mouse, chicken or zebrafish Shh clones, or, to expand the library, each X can also be selected from amongst amino acid residue which would be conservative substitutions for the amino acids which appear naturally in each of those positions.

- each of the degenerate positions “X” can be an amino acid which occurs in a corresponding position in one of the wild-type clones, and may also include amino acid residue which would be conservative substitutions, or each X can be any amino acid residue.

- the library of potential hedgehog homologs can be generated from a degenerate oligonucleotide sequence.
- Chemical synthesis of a degenerate gene sequence can be carried out in an automatic DNA synthesizer, and the synthetic genes then ligated into an appropriate expression vector.
- the purpose of a degenerate set of genes is to provide, in one mixture, all of the sequences encoding the desired set of potential hedgehog sequences.
- the synthesis of degenerate oligonucleotides is well known in the art (see for example, Narang, SA (1983) Tetrahedron 39:3; Itakura et al. (1981) Recombinant DATA, Proc 3 rd Cleveland Sympos.
- a wide range of techniques are known in the art for screening gene products of combinatorial libraries made by point mutations, and for screening cDNA libraries for gene products having a certain property. Such techniques will be generally adaptable for rapid screening of the gene libraries generated by the combinatorial mutagenesis of hedgehog homologs.
- the most widely used techniques for screening large gene libraries typically comprises cloning the gene library into replicable expression vectors, transforming appropriate cells with the resulting library of vectors, and expressing the combinatorial genes under conditions in which detection of a desired activity facilitates relatively easy isolation of the vector encoding the gene whose product was detected.
- Each of the illustrative assays described below are amenable to high through-put analysis as necessary to screen large numbers of degenerate hedgehog sequences created by combinatorial mutagenesis techniques.
- the combinatorial library is designed to be secreted (e.g., the polypeptides of the library all include a signal sequence but no transmembrane or cytoplasmic domains), and is used to transfect a eukaryotic cell that can be co-cultured with neuronal cells.
- a functional hedgehog protein secreted by the cells expressing the combinatorial library will diffuse to neighboring neuronal cells and induce a particular biological response, such as protection against cell death under oxygen-deprevation conditions (e.g., high CO 2 culture -conditions).
- the pattern of detection of proliferation will resemble a gradient function, and will allow the isolation (generally after several repetitive rounds of selection) of cells producing hedgehog homologs active as neuroprotective agents with respect to neuronal cells.
- target neuronal cells are cultured in 24-well microtitre plates.
- Other eukaryotic cells are transfected with the combinatorial hedgehog gene library and cultured in cell culture inserts (e.g., Collaborative Biomedical Products, Catalog #40446) that are able to fit into the wells of the microtitre plate.
- the cell culture inserts are placed in the wells such that recombinant hedgehog homologs secreted by the cells in the insert can diffuse through the porous bottom of the insert and contact the target cells in the microtitre plate wells.
- the inserts are removed and the effect of the variant hedgehog proteins on the target cells determined.
- Cells from the inserts corresponding to wells which score positive for activity can be split and re-cultured on several inserts, the process being repeated until the active clones are identified.
- the candidate hedgehog gene products are displayed on the surface of a cell or viral particle, and the ability of particular cells or viral particles to associate with a hedgehog-binding moiety (such as the patched protein or other hedgehog receptor) via this gene product is detected in a “panning assay”.
- a hedgehog-binding moiety such as the patched protein or other hedgehog receptor
- panning steps can be carried out on cells cultured from embryos.
- the gene library can be cloned into the gene for a surface membrane protein of a bacterial cell, and the resulting fusion protein detected by panning (Ladner et al., WO 88/06630; Fuchs et al. (1991) Bio/Technology 9:1370-1371; and Goward et al.
- TIBS 18:136-140 fluorescently labeled molecules which bind hedgehog can be used to score for potentially functional hedgehog homologs.
- Cells can be visually inspected and separated under a fluorescence microscope, or, where the morphology of the cell permits, separated by a fluorescence-activated cell sorter.
- the gene library is expressed as a fusion protein on the surface of a viral particle.
- foreign peptide sequences can be expressed on the surface of infectious phage, thereby conferring two significant benefits.
- coli filamentous phages M13, fd, and fl are most often used in phage display libraries, as either of the phage gIII or gVIII coat proteins can be used to generate fusion proteins without disrupting the ultimate packaging of the viral particle (Ladner et al. PCT publication WO 90/02909; Garrard et al., PCT publication WO 92/09690; Marks et al. (1992) J. Biol. Chem. 267:16007-16010; Griffths et al. (1993) EMBO J 12:725-734; Clackson et al. (1991) Nature 352:624-628; and Barbas et al. (1992) PNAS 89:4457-4461).
- the recombinant phage antibody system (RPAS, Pharamacia Catalog number 27-9400-01) can be easily modified for use in expressing and screening hedgehog combinatorial libraries.
- RPAS Pharamacia Catalog number 27-9400-01
- the pCANTAB 5 phagemid of the RPAS kit contains the gene which encodes the phage gill coat protein.
- the hedgehog combinatorial gene library can be cloned into the phagemid adjacent to the gilI signal sequence such that it will be expressed as a gIII fusion protein. After ligation, the phagemid is used to transform competent E. coli TG1 cells.
- Transformed cells are subsequently infected with M13KO7 helper phage to rescue the phagemid and its candidate hedgehog gene insert.
- the resulting recombinant phage contain phagemid DNA encoding a specific candidate hedgehog, and display one or more copies of the corresponding fusion coat protein.
- the phage-displayed candidate hedgehog proteins which are capable of binding an hedgehog receptor are selected or enriched by panning.
- the phage library can be applied to cells which express the patched protein and unbound phage washed away from the cells.
- the bound phage is then isolated, and if the recombinant phage express at least one copy of the wild type glll coat protein, they will retain their ability to infect E. coli.
- successive rounds of reinfection of E. coli, and panning will greatly enrich for hedgehog homologs, which can then be screened for further biological activities in order to differentiate agonists and antagonists.
- Combinatorial mutagenesis has a potential to generate very large libraries of mutant proteins, e.g., in the order of 10 26 molecules. Combinatorial libraries of this size may be technically challenging to screen even with high throughput screening assays such as phage display.
- REM recrusive ensemble mutagenesis
- REM is an algorithm which enhances the frequency of functional mutants in a library when an appropriate selection or screening method is employed (Arkin and Yourvan, 1992, PNAS USA 89:7811-7815; Yourvan et al., 1992, Parallel Problem Solvingfrom Nature, 2., In Maenner and Manderick, eds., Elsevir Publishing Co., Amsterdam, pp. 401-410; Delgrave et al., 1993, Protein Engineering 6(3):327-33 1).
- the invention also provides for reduction of the hedgehog protein to generate mimetics, e.g., peptide or non-peptide agents, which are able to mimic the neuroprotective activity of a naturally-occurring hedgehog polypeptide.
- mimetics e.g., peptide or non-peptide agents
- Such mutagenic techniques as described above are also useful to map the determinants of the hedgehog proteins which participate in protein-protein interactions involved in, for example, binding of the subject hedgehog polypeptide to other extracellular matrix components such as its receptor(s).
- the critical residues of a subject hedgehog polypeptide which are involved in molecular recognition of an hedgehog receptor such as patched can be determined and used to generate hedgehog-derived peptidomimetics which competitively bind with that moiety.
- peptidomimetic compounds can be generated which mimic those residues of the hedgehog protein which facilitate the interaction.
- agonistic mimetics may be used to mimic the normal function of a hedgehog protein in the treatment ischemia.
- non-hydrolyzable peptide analogs of such residues can be generated using benzodiazepine (e.g., see Freidinger et al. in Peptides: Chemistry and Biology, G. R.
- Recombinantly produced forms of the hedgehog proteins can be produced using, e.g, expression vectors containing a nucleic acid encoding a hedgehog polypeptide, operably linked to at least one transcriptional regulatory sequence.
- Operably linked is intended to mean that the nucleotide sequence is linked to a regulatory sequence in a manner which allows expression of the nucleotide sequence.
- Regulatory sequences are art-recognized and are selected to direct expression of a hedgehog polypeptide. Accordingly, the term transcriptional regulatory sequence includes promoters, enhancers and other expression control elements. Such regulatory sequences are described in Goeddel; Gene Expression Technology: Methods in Enzymology 185, Academic Press, San Diego, Calif. (1990).
- any of a wide variety of expression control sequences, sequences that control the expression of a DNA sequence when operatively linked to it, may be used in these vectors to express DNA sequences encoding hedgehog polypeptide.
- useful expression control sequences include, for example, a viral LTR, such as the LTR of the Moloney murine leukemia virus, the early and late promoters of SV40, adenovirus or cytomegalovirus immediate early promoter, the lac system, the trp system, the TAC or TRC system, T7 promoter whose expression is directed by T7 RNA polymerase, the major operator and promoter regions of phage ⁇ , the control regions for fd coat protein, the promoter for 3-phosphoglycerate kinase or other glycolytic enzymes, the promoters of acid phosphatase, e.g., Pho5, the promoters of the yeast ax-mating factors, the polyhedron promoter of the baculovirus system and other sequence
- the design of the expression vector may depend on such factors as the choice of the host cell to be transformed and/or the type of protein desired to be expressed. Moreover, the vector's copy number, the ability to control that copy number and the expression of any other proteins encoded by the vector, such as antibiotic markers, should also be considered.
- the gene constructs of the present invention can also be used as a part of a gene therapy protocol to deliver nucleic acids encoding either a neuroprotective form of a hedgehog polypeptide.
- another aspect of the invention features expression vectors for in vivo transfection of a hedgehog polypeptide in particular cell types so as to cause ectopic expression of a hedgehog polypeptide in neuronal tissue.
- Formulations of such expression constructs may be administered in any biologically effective carrier, e.g., any formulation or composition capable of effectively delivering the recombinant gene to cells in vivo.
- Approaches include insertion of the hedgehog coding sequence in viral vectors including recombinant retroviruses, adenovirus, adeno-associated virus, and herpes simplex virus-1, or recombinant bacterial or eukaryotic plasmids.
- Viral vectors transfect cells directly; plasmid DNA can be delivered with the help of, for example, cationic liposomes (lipofectin) or derivatized (e.g., antibody conjugated), polylysine conjugates, gramacidin S, artificial viral envelopes or other such intracellular carriers, as well as direct injection of the gene construct or CaPO 4 precipitation carried out in vivo.
- lipofectin cationic liposomes
- derivatized e.g., antibody conjugated
- polylysine conjugates e.g., gramacidin S
- artificial viral envelopes e.g., viral envelopes or other such intracellular carriers
- a preferred approach for in vivo introduction of nucleic acid into a cell is by use of a viral vector containing nucleic acid, e.g., a cDNA, encoding the particular form of the hedgehog polypeptide desired.
- a viral vector containing nucleic acid e.g., a cDNA
- Infection of cells with a viral vector has the advantage that a large proportion of the targeted cells can receive the nucleic acid.
- molecules encoded within the viral vector e.g., by a cDNA contained in the viral vector, are expressed efficiently in cells which have taken up viral vector nucleic acid.
- Retrovirus vectors and adeno-associated virus vectors are generally understood to be the recombinant gene delivery system of choice for the transfer of exogenous genes in vivo, particularly into humans. These vectors provide efficient delivery of genes into cells, and the transferred nucleic acids are stably integrated into the chromosomal DNA of the host. A major prerequisite for the use of retroviruses is to ensure the safety of their use, particularly with regard to the possibility of the spread of wild-type virus in the cell population.
- retrovirus can be constructed in which part of the retroviral coding sequence (gag, pol, env) has been replaced by nucleic acid encoding a hedgehog polypeptide and renders the retrovirus replication defective.
- the replication defective retrovirus is then packaged into virions which can be used to infect a target cell through the use of a helper virus by standard techniques.
- retroviruses examples include pLJ, pZIP, pWE and pEM which are well known to those skilled in the art.
- suitable packaging virus lines for preparing both ecotropic and amphotropic retroviral systems include Crip, Cre, 2 and Am.
- Retroviruses have been used to introduce a variety of genes into many different cell types, including neuronal cells, in vitro and/or in vivo (see, for example, Eglitis, et al. (1985) Science 230:1395-1398; Danos and Mulligan (1988) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 85:6460-6464; Wilson et al. (1988) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 85:3014-3018; Armentano et al. (1990) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 87:6141-6145; Huber et al. (1991) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci.
- retroviral-based vectors by modifying the viral packaging proteins on the surface of the viral particle.
- strategies for the modification of the infection spectrum of retroviral vectors include: coupling antibodies specific for cell surface antigens to the viral env protein (Roux et al. (1989) PNAS 86:9079-9083; Julan et al. (1992) J. Gen Virol 73:3251-3255; and Goud et al.
- Coupling can be in the form of the chemical cross-linking with a protein or other variety (e.g., lactose to convert the env protein to an asialoglycoprotein), as well as by generating fusion proteins (e.g., single-chain antibody/env fusion proteins).
- a protein or other variety e.g., lactose to convert the env protein to an asialoglycoprotein
- fusion proteins e.g., single-chain antibody/env fusion proteins
- retroviral gene delivery can be further enhanced by the use of tissue- or cell-specific transcriptional regulatory sequences which control expression of the hedgehog gene of the retroviral vector.
- Another viral gene delivery system useful in the present method utilizes adenovirus-derived vectors.
- the genome of an adenovirus can be manipulated such that it encodes and expresses a gene product of interest but is inactivated in terms of its ability to replicate in a normal lytic viral life cycle. See for example Berkner et al. (1988) BioTechniques 6:616; Rosenfeld et al. (1991) Science 252:431-434; and Rosenfeld et al. (1992) Cell 68:143-155.
- adenoviral vectors derived from the adenovirus strain Ad type 5 dl324 or other strains of adenovirus are well known to those skilled in the art. Recombinant adenoviruses can be advantageous in certain circumstances in that they can be used to infect a wide variety of cell types, including neuronal cells (Rosenfeld et-al. (1992) cited supra).
- the virus particle is relatively stable and amenable to purification and concentration, and as above, can be modified so as to affect the spectrum of infectivity.
- introduced adenoviral DNA (and foreign DNA contained therein) is not integrated into the genome of a host cell but remains episomal, thereby avoiding potential problems that can occur as a result of insertional mutagenesis in situations where introduced DNA becomes integrated into the host genome (e.g., retroviral DNA).
- the carrying capacity of the adenoviral genome for foreign DNA is large (up to 8 kilobases) relative to other gene delivery vectors (Berkner et al. cited supra; Haj-Ahmand and Graham (1986) J. Virol. 57:267).
- adenoviral vectors currently in use and therefore favored by the present invention are deleted for all or parts of the viral E1 and E3 genes but retain as much as 80% of the adenoviral genetic material (see, e.g., Jones et al. (1979) Cell 16:683; Berkner et al., supra; and Graham et al. in Methods in Molecular Biology, E. J. Murray, Ed. (Humana, Clifton, N.J., 1991) vol. 7. pp. 109-127).
- Expression of the inserted hedgehog gene can be under control of, for example, the EIA promoter, the major late promoter (MLP) and associated leader sequences, the E3 promoter, or exogenously added promoter sequences.
- MLP major late promoter
- non-viral methods can also be employed to cause expression of a hedgehog polypeptide in the tissue of an animal.
- Most nonviral methods of gene transfer rely on normal mechanisms used by mammalian cells for the uptake and intracellular transport of macromolecules.
- non-viral gene delivery systems of the present invention rely on endocytic pathways for the uptake of the hedgehog polypeptide gene by the targeted cell.
- Exemplary gene delivery systems of this type include liposomal derived systems, poly-lysine conjugates, and artificial viral envelopes.
- the gene delivery systems for the therapeutic hedgehog gene can be introduced into a patient by any of a number of methods, each of which is familiar in the art.
- a pharmaceutical preparation of the gene delivery system can be introduced systemically, e.g., by intravenous injection, and specific transduction of the protein in the target cells occurs predominantly from specificity of transfection provided by the gene delivery vehicle, cell-type or tissue-type expression due to the transcriptional regulatory sequences controlling expression of the receptor gene, or a combination thereof.
- initial delivery of the recombinant gene is more limited with introduction into the animal being quite localized.
- the gene delivery vehicle can be introduced by catheter (see U.S. Pat. No.
- a hedgehog expression construct can be delivered in a gene therapy construct to dermal cells by, e.g., electroporation using techniques described, for example, by Dev et al. ((1994) Cancer Treat Rev 20:105-115).
- the pharmaceutical preparation of the gene therapy construct can consist essentially of the gene delivery system in an acceptable diluent, or can comprise a slow release matrix in which the gene delivery vehicle is imbedded.
- the pharmaceutical preparation can comprise one or more cells which produce the gene delivery system.
- the hedgehog or ptc therapeutic can be a “gene activation” construct which, by homologous recombination with a genomic DNA, alters the transcriptional regulatory sequences of an endogenous gene.
- the gene activation construct can replace the endogenous promoter of a hedgehog gene with a heterologous promoter, e.g., one which causes constitutive expression of the hedgehog gene or which causes inducible expression of the gene under conditions different from the normal expression pattern of the gene.
- Other genes in the patched signaling pathway can be similarly targeted.
- a variety of different formats for the gene activation constructs are available. See, for example, the Transkaryotic Therapies, Inc PCT publications WO93/09222, WO95/31560, WO96/29411, WO95/31560 and WO94/12650.
- the nucleotide sequence used as the gene activation construct can be comprised of (1) DNA from some portion of the endogenous hedgehog gene (exon sequence, intron sequence, promoter sequences, etc.) which direct recombination and (2) heterologous transcriptional regulatory sequence(s) which is to be operably linked to the coding sequence for the genomic hedgehog gene upon recombination of the gene activation construct.
- the construct may further include a reporter gene to detect the presence of the knockout construct in the cell.
- the gene activation construct is inserted into a cell, and integrates with the genomic DNA of the cell in such a position so as to provide the heterologous regulatory sequences in operative association with the native hedgehog gene.
- Such insertion occurs by homologous recombination, i.e., recombination regions of the activation construct that are homologous to the endogenous hedgehog gene sequence hybridize to the genomic DNA and recombine with the genomic sequences so that the construct is incorporated into the corresponding position of the genomic DNA.
- recombination region or “targeting sequence” refer to a segment (i.e., a portion) of a gene activation construct having a sequence that is substantially identical to or substantially complementary to a genomic gene sequence, e.g., including 5′ flanking sequences of the genomic gene, and can facilitate homologous recombination between the genomic sequence and the targeting transgene construct.
- replacement region refers to a portion of an activation construct which becomes integrated into an endogenous chromosomal location following homologous recombination between a recombination region and a genomic sequence.
- the heterologous regulatory sequences can include one or more of a variety elements, including: promoters (such as constitutive or inducible promoters), enhancers, negative regulatory elements, locus control regions, transcription factor binding sites, or combinations thereof.
- Promoters/enhancers which may be used to control the expression of the targeted gene in vivo include, but are not limited to, the cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter/enhancer (Karasuyama et al., 1989, J. Exp. Med, 169:13), the human ⁇ -actin promoter (Gunning et al.
- CMV cytomegalovirus
- MMTV LTR mouse mammary tumor virus long terminal repeat
- MoLV LTR Moloney murine leukemia virus
- SV40 early or late region promoter Bemoist et al. (1981) Nature 290:304-310; Templeton et al. (1984) Mol.
- portions of the 5′ flanking region of the human Shh gene are amplified using primers which add restriction sites, to generate the following fragments 5′-gcgcgcttcgaaGCGAGGCAGCCAGCGAGGGAGAGAGCGAGCGGGCG AGCCGGAGCGAGGAAatcgatgcgcgc (primer 1) 5′-gcgcgcagatctGGGAAAGCGCAAGAGAGAGCGCACACGCACACACC CGCCGCGCACTCGggatccgcgcgcgc (primer 2)
- primer 1 includes a 5′ non-coding region of the human Shh gene and is flanked by an AsuII and ClaI restriction sites.
- Primer 2 includes a portion of the 5′ non-coding region immediately 3′ to that present in primer 1.
- the hedgehog gene sequence is flanked by XhoII and BamHI restriction sites.
- the purified amplimers are cut with each of the enzymes as appropriate.
- the vector pCDNA1.1 (Invitrogen) includes a CMV promoter.
- the plasmid is cut with with AsuII, which cleaves just 3′ to the CMV promoter sequence.
- the AsuII/ClaI fragment of primer 1 is ligated to the AsuII cleavage site of the pcDNA vector.
- the ClaI/AsuII ligation destroys the AsuII site at the 3′ end of a properly inserted primer 1.
- the vector is then cut with BamHI, and an XhoII/BamHI fragment of primer 2 is ligated to the BamHI cleavage site.
- BamHI/XhoII ligation destroys the BamHI site at the 5′ end of a properly inserted primer 2.
- flanking primer 1 and primer 2 sequences provide the recombination region which permits the insertion of the CMV promoter in front of the coding sequence for the human Shh gene.
- Other heterologous promoters can be inserted in a genomic hedgehog gene by a similar method.
- the replacement region merely deletes a negative transcriptional control element of the native gene, e.g., to activate expression, or ablates a positive control element, e.g., to inhibit expression of the targeted gene.
- the subject method is carried out using a ptc therapeutic composition.
- Such compositions can be generated with, for example, compounds which bind to patched and alter its signal transduction activity, compounds which alter the binding and/or enzymatic activity of a protein (e.g., intracellular) involved in patched signal pathway, and compounds which alter the level of expression of a hedgehog protein, a patched protein or a protein involved in the intracellular signal transduction pathway of patched.
- the availability of purified and recombinant hedgehog polypeptides facilitates the generation of assay systems which can be used to screen for drugs, such as small organic molecules, which are either agonists or antagonists of the normal cellular function of a hedgehog and/or patched protein, particularly in their role in the pathogenesis of neuronal cell death.
- the assay evaluates the ability of a compound to modulate binding between a hedgehog polypeptide and a hedgehog receptor such as patched.
- the assay merely scores for the ability of a test compound to alter the signal transduction activity of the patched protein.
- hedgehog and/or ptc therapeutics which will include ones with neuroprotective activity, can be identified.
- assay formats will suffice and, in light of the present disclosure, will be comprehended by a skilled artisan.

- all % symbols refer to weight by weight percentage.
- compositions for use in the method of the present invention are those wherein the hedgehog or ptc therapeutic is formulated in liposome-containing compositions.
- Liposomes are artificial vesicles formed by amphiphatic molecules such as polar lipids, for example, phosphatidyl cholines, ethanolamines and serines, sphingomyelins, cardiolipins, plasmalogens, phosphatidic acids and cerebiosides. Liposomes are formed when suitable amphiphathic molecules are allowed to swell in water or aqueous solutions to form liquid crystals usually of multilayer structure comprised of many bilayers separated from each other by aqueous material (also referred to as coarse liposomes).
- Another type of liposome known to be consisting of a single bilayer encapsulating aqueous material is referred to as a unilamellar vesicle. If water-soluble materials are included in the aqueous phase during the swelling of the lipids they become entrapped in the aqueous layer between the lipid bilayers.
- Water-soluble active ingredients such as, for example, various salt forms of a hedgehog polypeptide, are encapsulated in the aqueous spaces between the molecular layers.
- the lipid soluble active ingredient of hedgehog or ptc therapeutic such as an organic mimetic, is predominantly incorporated into the lipid layers, although polar head groups may protude from the layer into the aqueous space.
- the encapsulation of:these compounds can be achieved by a number of methods. The method most commonly used involves casting a thin film of phospholipid onto the walls of a flask by evaporation from an organic solvent. When this film is dispersed in a suitable aqueous medium, multilamellar liposomes are formed. Upon suitable sonication, the coarse liposomes form smaller similarly closed vesicles.
- Water-soluble active ingredients are usually incorporated by dispersing the cast film with an aqueous solution of the compound. The unencapsulated compound is then removed by centrifugation, chromatography, dialysis or other art-known suitable procedures. The lipid-soluble active ingredient is usually incorporated by dissolving it in the organic solvent with the phospholipid prior to casting the film. If the solubility of the material in the lipid phase is not exceeded or the amount present is not in excess of that which can be bound to the lipid, liposomes prepared by the above method usually contain most of the material bound in the lipid bilayers; separation of the liposomes from unencapsulated material is not required.
- a particularly convenient method for preparing liposome formulated forms of hedgehog and ptc therapeutics is the method described in EP-A-253,619, incorporated herein by reference.
- single bilayered liposomes containing encapsulated active ingredients are prepared by dissolving the lipid component in an organic medium, injecting the organic solution of the lipid component under pressure into an aqueous component while simultaneously mixing the organic and aqueous components with a high speed homogenizer or mixing means, whereupon the liposomes are formed spontaneously.

Abstract
One aspect of the present application relates to a method for limiting damage to neuronal cells by ischemic or epoxic conditions, e.g., such as may be manifest by a reduction in brain infarct volume, by administering to an individual a hedgehog therapeutic or ptc therapeutic in an amount effective for reducing cerebral infarct volume.
Description
- This application is a continuation-in-part of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 08/883,656, filed Jun. 27, 1997, incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
- Stroke kills more than 150,000 people annually and accounts for about one of every 15 U.S. deaths. It is presently the third largest cause of death, ranking behind diseases of the heart and cancer, according to the National Center for Health Statistics.
- On average, someone suffers a stroke in the United States every minute; every 3.4 minutes someone dies of a stroke. Based on the Framingham Heart Study, approximately 500,000 people suffer a new or recurrent brain attack each year. Approximately 3,890,000 stroke survivors are alive today. From 1984 to 1994, the death rate from stroke declined 19.8 percent, but the actual number of deaths from brain attack rose slightly.
- Stroke is the leading cause of serious, long-term disability in the United States. Stroke accounts for half of all patients hospitalized for acute neurological disease. In 1991-92 one million Americans
age 15 and older had disabilities resulting from stroke. According to the Framingham Heart Study, 31 percent of brain attack survivors needed help caring for themselves; 20 percent needed help walking; and 71 percent had an impaired ability to work when examined an average of seven years later. Sixteen percent had to be institutionalized. About 31 percent of people who have an initial stroke die within a year. This percentage is higher among people older than age 65. About two-thirds of men and women who have a brain attack die within 12 years; long-term survivorship is worse in men than in women. 407,000 males and 478,000 females were discharged from hospitals in 1994 after having a stroke. For statistics, see for example the homepage for the American Heart Association at http://www.amhrt.org/1997/stats/Stroke.html - Stroke is defined as a sudden impairment of body functions caused by a disruption in, e.g., the supply of blood to the brain. For instance, a stroke occurs when a blood vessel bringing oxygen and nutrients to the brain is interrupted by any method including low blood pressure, clogging by atherosclerotic plaque, a blood clot, or some other particle, or when a blood vessel bursts.
- Because of the blockage or rupture, part of the brain fails to get the blood flow that it requires. Brain tissue that receives an inadequate supply of blood is said to be ischemic. Deprived of oxygen and nutrients, nerve cells and other cell types within the brain begin to fail, creating an infarct (an area of cell death, or necrosis). As nerve cells (neurons) fail and die, the part of the body controlled by those neurons cannot function either. The devastating effects of ischemia are often permanent because brain tissue has very limited repair capabilities and lost neurons are not usually replaced.
- Cerebral ischemia may be incomplete (blood flow is reduced but not entirely cut off), complete (total loss of tissue perfusion), transient or permanent. If ischemia is incomplete and persists for no more than ten to fifteen minutes, neural death might not occur. More prolonged or complete ischemia results in infarction. Depending on the site and extent of the infarction, mild to severe neurological disability or death will follow. Thus, the chain of causality leading to neurological deficit in stroke has two principal components: loss of blood supply, and cell damage and death.
- Thrombosis is the blockage of an artery by a large deposit that usually results from the combination of atherosclerosis and blood clotting. Thrombotic stroke (also called cerebral thrombosis) results when a deposit in a brain or neck artery reaches occlusive proportions. Most strokes are of this type.
- Embolism is the blockage of an artery or vein by an embolus. Emboli are often small pieces of blood clot that break off from larger clots. Embolic stroke (also called cerebral embolism) occurs when an embolus is carried in the bloodstream to a brain or neck artery. If the embolus reaches an artery that is too small for it to pass through, it plugs the artery and cuts off the blood supply to downstream tissues. Embolic stroke is the clinical expression of this event.
- To a modest extent, the brain is protected against cerebral ischemia by compensatory mechanisms that include: collateral circulation (overlapping local blood supplies), and arteriolar auto-regulation (local smooth muscle control of blood flow in the smallest arterial channels). If compensatory mechanisms operate efficiently, slightly diminished cerebral blood flow produces neither tissue ischemia nor abnormal signs and symptoms. Usually, such mechanisms must act within minutes to restore blood flow if permanent infarction damage is to be avoided or reduced. Arteriolar auto-regulation works by shunting blood from noncritical regions to infarct zones.
- Even in the face of systemic hypotension, auto-regulation may be sufficient to adjust the circulation and thereby preserve the vitality and function of brain tissue. Alternatively, ischemia may be sufficiently prolonged and compensatory mechanisms sufficiently inadequate that a catastrophic stroke results. With these as the extremes, the gradation of ischemic stroke are described below.
- A transient ischemic attack (TIA) is conventionally described as a loss of neurologic function caused by ischemia, abrupt in onset, persisting for less than 24 hours, and clearing without residual signs. Most TIAs last only a few minutes. However, neurologic disability may persist for more than 24 hours before clearing. Such an event is called a reversible ischemic neurological disability (RIND).
- An ischemic event that is sufficiently severe to cause persistent disability but that is short of a calamitous stroke, is called a partial nonprogressing stroke (PNS). The penultimate ischemic event, a completed stroke, produces major functional loss. The ultimate ischemic insult is death.
- Focal cerebral ischemia must be distinguished from global cerebral hypoxia. In cerebral hypoxia the oxygen supply to the brain is diminished even though blood flow and blood pressure may be normal. Discriminating between diagnoses of patients with acute neurological deficit is critical because patient management takes disparate paths.
- There are generally distinct clinical outcomes in stroke versus cerebral hypoxia, although both sets of patients may suffer death or permanent damage. Hypoxia patients who survive past an acute life-threatening period usually show few immediate symptoms of long term damage. Instead, clinical manifestations such as mental deterioration, urinary and fecal incontinence, gait and speech disturbances, tremor and weakness are delayed for periods that may vary from days to weeks. However, as in stroke, progressive loss of neurons due to oxygen deprivation is believed to be a factor in such detrimental effects of hypoxia.
- It is an objective of the present application to provide new drugs for treatment and prophylaxis of cerebral ischemia, such as stroke.
- It is also an objective of the present application to provide new drugs for treatment and prophylaxis of cerebral hypoxia.
- One aspect of the present application relates to a method for limiting damage to neuronal cells by ischemic or epoxic conditions, e.g., such as may be manifest by a reduction in brain infarct volume, by administering to an individual a hedgehog therapeutic or ptc therapeutic in an amount effective for reducing cerebral infarct volume relative to the absence of administeration of the hedgehog therapeutic or ptc therapeutic.
- In other embodiments, the subject method can be used for protecting cerebral tissue of a mammal against the repercussions of ischemia; for treating cerebral infarctions; for treating cerebral ischemia; for treatment of stroke; and/or for treating transient ischemia attacks. In embodiments wherein the patient is treated with a ptc therapeutic, such therapeutics are preferably small organic molecules which mimic hedgehog effects onpatched-mediated signals.
- Wherein the subject method is carried out using a hedgehog therapeutic, the hedgehog therapeutic preferably a polypeptide including a hedgehog portion comprising at least a bioactive extracellular portion of a hedgehog protein, e.g., the hedgehog portion includes at least 50, 100 or 150 amino acid residues of an N-terminal half of a hedgehog protein. In preferred embodiments, the hedgehog portion includes at least a portion of the hedgehog protein corresponding to a 19 kd fragment of the extracellular domain of a hedgehog protein.
- In preferred embodiments, the hedgehog portion has an amino acid sequence at least 60, 75, 85, or 95 percent identical with a hedgehog protein of any of SEQ ID Nos. 10-18, though sequences identical to those sequence listing entries are also contemplated as useful in the present method. The hedgehog portion can be encoded by a nucleic acid which hybridizes under stringent conditions to a nucleic acid sequence of any of SEQ ID Nos. 1-9, e.g., the hedgehog portion can be encoded by a vertebrate hedgehog gene, especially a human hedgehog gene.
- In other embodiments, the subject method can be carried out by administering a gene activation construct, wherein the gene activation construct is designed to recombine with a genomic hedgehog gene of the patient to provide a heterologous transcriptional regulatory sequence operatively linked to a coding sequence of the hedgehog gene.
- In still other embodiments, the subject method can be practiced with the administration of a gene therapy construct encoding a hedgehog polypeptide. For instance, the gene therapy construct can be provided in a composition selected from a group consisting of a recombinant viral particle, a liposome, and a poly-cationic nucleic acid binding agent.
- Where the subject method is carried out using a ptc therapeutic, the therapeutic can be, e.g., a molecule which binds to patched and mimics hedgehog-mediated patched signal transduction. For instance, the binding of the therapeutic to patched may result in upregulation of patched and/or gli expression.
- In other embodiments, the ptc therapeutic mimics hedgehog-mediated patched signal transduction by altering the localization, protein-protein binding and/or enzymatic activity of an intracellular protein involved in a patched signal pathway.
- In a preferred embodiment, the ptc therapeutic is a small organic molecule, e.g., less than 5 kd, more preferably less than 2.5 kd. For instance, the present invention contemplates the use of small organic molecules which interact with neuronal cells to mimic hedgehog-mediated patched signal transduction.

- In yet other embodiments of the present invention, the ptc therapeutic alters the level of expression of a hedgehog protein, a patched protein or another protein involved in the intracellular signal transduction pathway of patched. In this regard, the ptc therapeutic can be an antisense construct which inhibits the expression of a protein which is involved in the signal transduction pathway of patched and the expression of which antagonizes hedgehog-mediated signals.

- The subject method can also be used as part of a therapy including administering one or more of an anticoagulant, an antiplatelet agent, a thrombin inhibitor, and/or a thrombolytic agent, and/or in conjunction with vascular surgery, e.g., carotid endarterectomy.
- In preferred embodiments, the subject method results in at least a 25%, 50%, 70%, 75%, or 90% reduction in cerebral infarct volumes relative to the absence of treatment with the therapeutic, e.g., as measured in a stroke model such as the MCAO model.
- FIG. 1 is a graph demonstrating the effect of systemic hedgehog treatment on cerebral infarction volume in rat models of middle cerebral artery occlusion.
- Stroke occurs when the flow of oxygen and nutrients to the brain is inhibited/interrupted due to any cause. Thus, in certain indications, stroke is a form interrupted of cardiovascular disease that affects the arteries of the central nervous system. For example, a stroke occurs when a blood vessel bringing oxygen and nutrients to the brain bursts or is clogged by a blood clot or some other particle. Because of this rupture or blockage, part of the brain doesn't get the flow of blood it needs. Deprived of oxygen, nerve cells in the affected area of the brain can't function and die within minutes. Depending on the part of the brain affected by the brain attack/stroke, there may be loss of normal function. Strokes are the third most common cause of death in United States. Stroke is the most common cause of disability of all conditions in adults.
- In terms of treatment, once a patient experiences symptoms of a transient ischemic attack, the goal of therapy is prevention of stroke. If a stroke occurs, the goal of therapy changes to the limiting of damage. Preventing stroke and limiting the damage of stroke are currently carried out in the art through medication or surgery. In both cases, the treatment involves reducing or removing blocks, building up in blood vessels and preventing further cell death about neuronal populations. These treatments include the use of (a) anticoagulants, (b) antiplatelet agents, and (c) vascular surgery. For instance, anticoagulation drug therapy inhibits the coagulation process. Heparin, which inhibits enzymes and platelets that cause clots, is used in acute settings. For long term prevention, warfarin offers anticoagulation by stopping production of Vitamin K dependent coagulation factors. With both drugs, there runs a risk of hemorrhage and is only used for ischemic strokes. Strokes involving certain areas also do not warrant this therapy. Another therapy known in the art, antiplatelet therapy with aspirin, provides one of the most important preventive tools available. At low daily doses, aspirin has been shown to reduce the incidence of stroke. Specifically, low doses of aspirin block the production of a chemical called thromboxane. Thromboxane's function is to activate platelets to bind together and thus form blood clots. Finally, carotid endarterectomy is the surgical procedure where the plaque at the origin of the carotid artery is removed. This is the treatment of choice of patients with TIA's caused by embolism, low flow, and with minor strokes due to narrowing greater than 70% of the internal carotid.
- I. Overview
- The present application is directed to compositions and methods for the prevention and treatment of ischemic injury to the brain, such as resulting from stroke. The invention derives, at least in part, from the observation of a protective effect by the so called “hedgehog” proteins on animal stroke models. Briefly, as described in the appended examples, we investigated the neuroprotective potential of hedgehog proteins in a rat model of focal cerebral ischemia that used permanent occlusion of the middle cerebral artery. Intravenous infusion of vehicle (control) or Shh (sonic hedgehog) was administered for 3 hours beginning 30 minutes after occlusion, and resulted in about a 70 percent reduction in total infarct size (P=0.0039), relative to the control, when examined 24 hours post-occlusion. Measurements of arterial blood pressure, blood gases, glucose, hematocrit and osmolality revealed no difference among vehicle- and Shh-treated animals. These results show that the intravenous hedgehog protein reduces neuronal damage due to stroke. There was no apparent cytotoxicity associated with administration of the hedgehog polypeptide.
- These results, in comparison to neuroprotective agents described in the art, suggest an unexpectedly good neuroprotective activity for hedgehog in the treatment of stroke. For example, the non-competitive antagonist of the NMDA receptor, MK-801, was typically reported to produce less than a 50% reduction in infarct volume. Work on MK-801 was halted because of significant safety concerns, mostly related to vacuolization seen in neurons of animal models. Moreover, MK-801 has a relatively short therapeutic window and must be given within a few hours of the ischemic attack.
- Another neuroprotective agent presently being investigated for use in the treatment of stroke is basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF). In one study, (Tatlisumak et al. (1996)Stroke 27:2292), bFGF (45 μg/kg/hr) or vehicle was infused intravenously for three hours beginning 30 minutes after permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion by intraluminal suture in mature Sprague-Dawley rats. After 24 hours, neurological deficit and infract volume were significantly improved (approximately 50% reduction in infarct volume) in the FGF group. Autoradiography following intravenous administration of radiolabeled bFGF showed that labeled FGF (confirmed by immunoprecipitation) crossed the damaged blood brain barrier to enter the ischemic, but not the non-ischemic hemisphere.
- A second model (Jiang et al. (1995)Stroke 26:1-40), utilized mature Wistar rates which underwent temporary occlusion of the middle cerebral artery by intra-arterial suture for two hours. At the time of reperfusion either bFGF (45 μg/kg/hr) or vehicle were infused intravenously over three hours. At seven days after ischemia, infarct volume was significantly reduced in the bFGF treated animals (approximately 40% reduction in infarct volume), and only the bFGF treated animals regained their weight after surgery.
- In one aspect, the present invention provides pharmaceutical preparations and methods for preventing/treating cerebral ischemia and the like utilizing, as an active ingredient, a hedgehog polypeptide or a mimetic thereof.
- The subject hedgehog treatments are effective on both human and animal subjects afflicted with these conditions. Animal subjects to which the invention is applicable extend to both domestic animals and livestock, raised either as pets or for commercial purposes. Examples are dogs, cats, cattle, horses, sheep, hogs and goats.
- However, without wishing to be bound by any particular theory, the reduction in infarct size in the present studies may be due at least in part to the ability of hedgehog proteins to antagonize (directly or indirectly) patched-mediated regulation of gene expression and other physiological effects mediated by the patched gene. The patched gene product, a cell surface protein, is understood to signal through a pathway which regulates transcription of a variety of genes involved in neuronal cell development. In the CNS and other tissue, the introduction of hedgehog relieves (derepresses) this inhibition conferred by patched, allowing expression of particular gene programs.
- Accordingly, the present invention contemplates the use of other agents which are capable of mimicking the effect of the hedgehog protein on patched signalling, e.g., as may be identified from the drug screening assays described below.
- II. Definitions
- For convience, certain terms employed in the specfication, examples, and appended claims are collected here.
- A “stroke” is a sudden loss of function caused by a cutoff in the blood supply to the brain. Stroke presents with different levels of severity ranging from “transient ischemic attack” or “TIA” (no permanent disability), to “partial nonprogressing stroke” (persistent but no calamitous damage), to “complete stroke” (permanent, calamitous neurological deficit). Ischemia (diminished or stopped blood flow) and infarction (cell damage and death within the zone of ischemia) are the pathologic processes in stroke that lead to neurologic deficits.
- “Ischemic stroke” is caused by an obstruction of blood vessels supplying the brain. The primary subcategories of ischemic stroke are thrombotic stroke, embolic stroke and lacunar infarctions.
- “Hemorrhagic stroke” is caused by the rupture of blood vessels supplying the brain. The primary subcategories of hemorrhagic stroke are subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH).
- The term “ischemic damage” refers to a reduction in the biological capability of a neuronal cell, including cell death, induced by a reduced blood flow, or an otherwise reduced level of oxygen to the affected neuronal cells, whether it be the result of ischemic stroke, hemmorrhagic stroke, hypoxia or the like.
- The term “hedgehog therapeutic” refers to various forms of hedgehog polypeptides, as well as peptidomimetics, which are neuroprotective for neuronal cells, and in particular, enhance the survival of neurons under ischemic and/or epoxic conditions. These include naturally occurring forms of hedgehog proteins, as well as modified or mutant forms generated by molecular biological techniques, chemical synthesis, etc. While in preferred embodiments the hedgehog polypeptide is derived from a vertebrate homolog, cross-sepcies activity reported in the literature supports the use of hedgehog peolypeptides from invertebrate organisms as well. Naturally and non-naturally occurring hedgehog therapeutics referred to herein as “agonists” mimic or potentiate (collectively “agonize”) the effects of a naturally-occurring hedgehog protein as a neuroprotective agent. In addition, the term “hedgehog therapeutic” includes molecules which can activate expression of an endogenous hedgehog gene. The term also includes gene therapy constructs for causing expression of hedgehog polypeptides in vivo, as for example, expression constructs encoding recombinant hedgehog polypeptides as well as trans-activation constructs for altering the regulatory sequences of an endogenous hedgehog gene by homologous recombination.
- In particular, the term “hedgehog polypeptide” encompasses hedgehog proteins and peptidyl fragments thereof.
- As used herein the term “bioactive fragment”, with reference to portions of hedgehog proteins, refers to a fragment of a full-length hedgehog protein, wherein the fragment specifically agonizes neuroprotective events mediated by wild-type hedgehog proteins. The hedgehog bioactive fragment preferably is a soluble extracellular portion of a hedgehog protein, where solubility is with reference to physiologically compatible solutions. Exemplary bioactive fragments are described in PCT publications WO 95/18856 and WO 96/17924.
- The term “ptc therapeutic” refers to agents which mimic the effect of naturally occuning hedgehog proteins on patched signalling. The ptc therapeutic can be, e.g., a peptide, a nucleic acid, a carbohydrate, a small organic molecule, or natural product extract (or fraction thereof).
- A “patient” or “subject” to be treated by the subject method is a mammals, including a human.
- A “therapeutically effective amount” of, e.g., a hedgehog or ptc therapeutic, with respect to the subject method of treatment, refers to an amount of the therapeutic (in a preparation) which when applied as part of a desired dosage regimen causes a decrease in ischemia- and/or hypoxia-induced neuronal cell death (i.e., a reduction in the volume/size of a cerebral infarct caused thereby) according to clinically acceptable standards for the treatment or prevention of those disorder.
- By “protection from damage to neural tissue” it is meant reduction in the total stroke volume and/or infarct volume resulting from, e.g., ischemic or hypoxic conditions, preferably as manifested by less neurological and/or cognitive deficits.
- “Homology” and “identity” each refer to sequence similarity between two polypeptide sequences, with identity being a more strict comparison. Homology and identity can each be determined by comparing a position in each sequence which, may be aligned for purposes of comparison. When a position in the compared sequence is occupied by the same amino acid residue, then the polypeptides can be referred to as identical at that position; when the equivalent site is occupied by the same amino acid (e.g., identical) or a similar amino acid (e.g., similar in steric and/or electronic nature), then the molecules can be referred to as homologous at that position. A percentage of homology or identity between sequences is a function of the number of matching or homologous positions shared by the sequences. An “unrelated” or “non-homologous” sequence shares less than 40 percent identity, though preferably less than 25 percent identity, with an AR sequence of the present invention.
- The term “corresponds to”, when referring to a particular polypeptide or nucleic acid sequence is meant to indicate that the sequence of interest is identical or homologous to the reference sequence to which it is said to correspond.
- The terms “recombinant protein”, “heterologous protein” and “exogenous protein” are used interchangeably throughout the specification and refer to a polypeptide which is produced by recombinant DNA techniques, wherein generally, DNA encoding the polypeptide is inserted into a suitable expression construct which is in turn used to transform a host cell to produce the heterologous protein. That is, the polypeptide is expressed from a heterologous nucleic acid.
- A “chimeric protein” or “fusion protein” is a fusion of a first amino acid sequence encoding a hedgehog polypeptide with a second amino acid sequence defining a domain foreign to and not substantially homologous with any domain of hh protein. A chimeric protein may present a foreign domain which is found (albeit in a different protein) in an organism which also expresses the first protein, or it may be an “interspecies”, “intergenic”, etc. fusion of protein structures expressed by different kinds of organisms. In general, a fusion protein can be represented by the general formula (X)n—(hh)m—(Y)n, wherein hh represents all or a portion of the hedgehog protein, X and Y each independently represent an amino acid sequences which are not naturally found as a polypeptide chain contiguous with the hedgehog sequence, m is an integer greater than or equal to 1, and each occurrence of n is, independently, 0 or an integer greater than or equal to 1 (n and m are preferably no greater than 5 or 10).
- As used herein, the term “vector” refers to a nucleic acid molecule capable of transporting another nucleic acid to which it has been linked. The term “expression vector” includes plasmids, cosmids or phages capable of synthesizing, for example, the subject hedgehog polypeptides encoded by the respective recombinant gene carried by the vector. Preferred vectors are those capable of autonomous replication and/expression of nucleic acids to which they are linked. In the present specification, “plasmid” and “vector” are used interchangeably as the plasmid is the most commonly used form of vector. Moreover, the invention is intended to include such other forms of expression vectors which serve equivalent functions and which become known in the art subsequently hereto.
- “Transcriptional regulatory sequence” is a generic term used throughout the specification to refer to DNA sequences, such as initiation signals, enhancers, and promoters, as well as polyadenylation sites, which induce or control transcription of protein (or antisense) coding sequences with which they are operably linked. In preferred embodiments, transcription of a recombinant gene is under the control of a promoter sequence (or other transcriptional regulatory sequence) which controls the expression of the recombinant gene in a cell-type in which expression is intended. It will also be understood that the recombinant gene can be under the control of transcriptional regulatory sequences which are the same or which are different from those sequences which control transcription of the naturally-occurring form of the regulatory protein.
- The term “operably linked” refers to the arrangement of a transcriptional regulatory element relative to another transcribable nucleic acid sequence, such that the transcriptional regulatory element can regulate the rate of transcription from the transcribable sequence(s).
- III. Exemplary Applications of Method and Compositions
- Central nervous system tissue is particularly vulnerable to damage caused by ischemic conditions. The subject method has wide applicability to the treatment or prophylaxis of ischemic or hypoxic damage marked by neuronal cell death. The instant treatment can be used to treat or prevent injury or disease to brain tissue resulting from ischemia, e.g., as caused from insufficient oxygen. The types of ischemia for which the subject method can be used as part of a treatment include, but are not limited to those which may last for only transient periods of time to those which may last for lengthy durations, as in stroke. In the regard, the subject method is useful for treatment and prevention of injury to the brain and spinal cord and edema due to head trauma, spinal trauma, stroke, hypotension, arrested breathing, cardiac arrest, Rey's syndrome, cerebral thrombosis, embolism, hemorrhage or tumors, encephalomyelitis, hydroencephalitis, and operative and postoperative brain injury.
- In general, the method can be characterized as including a step of administering to an animal an amount of a ptc or hedgehog therapeutic effective to enhance the survival of neuronal cells under such ischemic or hypoxic conditions. The mode of administration and dosage regimens will vary depending on the severity of the ischemic or hypoxic attack, e.g., the dosage may be altered as between a transient ischemic attack, a partial nonprogressing stroke, and a complete stroke. In preferred embodiments, the ptc or hedeghog therapeutic is administered systemically initially (i.e., while the blood brain barrier is disrupted), then locally for medium to long term care.
- When used to treat stroke, the clinician should not only define the level of stroke severity, but also the “pace” or “tempo” of the illness. This is because the pace of progression helps to dictate the urgency for evaluation and treatment. A patient who suffers a TIA in the morning has a higher risk for stroke in the afternoon than a patient who suffered a single TIA a month earlier. Where the risk of stroke remains high, the subject hedgehog and ptc therapeutics can be used prophylatically in order to minimize ischemic damage which may result from an eventual stroke. A patient who is worsening under supervision requires more urgent management than one who has been stable for a week or more.
- The subject method may also find particular utility in treating or preventing the adverse neurological consequences of surgery. For example, coronary bypass surgery requires the use of heart-lung machines, which tend to introduce air bubbles into the circulatory system that may lodge in the brain. The presence of such air bubbles robs neuronal tissue of oxygen, resulting in anoxia and ischemia. Pre- or post-surgical administration of the hedgehog and/or ptc therapeutics of the present invention will treat or prevent the resulting ischemia. In a preferred embodiment, the subject therapeutics are administered to patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass surgery or carotid endarterectomy surgery.
- In still other embodiments, the subject method can be used in the prevention and/or treatment of hypoxia, e.g., as a neuroprotective agent. For instance, the subject method can be used prophylactically to lessen the neuronal cell death caused by altitude-induced hypoxia.
- A method which is “neuroprotective”, in the case of cerebral ischemia, results in diminished infarct volume relative to that which would occur in the absence of treatment with a hedgehog or ptc therapeutic. That is a neuroprotective therapy is intended to maintain or rescue damaged nerve cells, preventing their death.
- The treatment methods of the present invention can be combined with the use of (a) anticoagulants, (b) antiplatelet agents, and/or (c) vascular surgery. Co-administered with suitable anti-coagulant agents, antiplatelet agents, thrombin inhibitors, and/or thrombolytic agents, may afford an efficacy advantage over any of the agents alone, and may do so while permitting the use of lower doses of each. A lower dosage minimizes the potential of side effects, thereby providing an increased margin of safety. The two (or more) agents are administered in combination according to the invention. The term “in combination” in this context means that the drugs are given substantially contemporaneously, either simultaneously or sequentially. If given sequentially, at the onset of administration of the second agent, the first of the two agents is preferably still detectable at effective concentrations at the site of treatment.
- The term “anti-coagulant agents” (or coagulation inhibitory agents), as used herein, denotes agents that inhibit blood coagulation. Such agents include warfarin, heparin, or low molecular weight heparin (LMWH), including pharmaceutically acceptable salts or prodrugs thereof. For reasons of efficacy, the preferable anti-coagulant agents are warfarin or heparin or LMWH. The warfarin employed herein, may be, for exarnple, crystalline warfarin or amorphous sodium warfarin. The heparin employed herein may be, for example, the sodium or sulfate salts thereof.
- The term “anti-platelet agents” (or platelet inhibitory agents), as used herein, denotes agents that inhibit platelet function such as by inhibiting the aggregation, adhesion or granular secretion of platelets. Such agents include the various known non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) such as aspirin, ibuprofen, naproxen, sulindac, indomethacin, mefenamate, droxicam, diclofenac, sulfinpyrazone, and piroxicam, including pharmaceutically acceptable salts or prodrugs thereof. Of the NSAIDS, aspirin (acetylsalicyclic acid or ASA), which has been well researched and widely used with good results, and piroxicam, which exerts its anti-platelet effect when dosed once daily, are preferred compounds, especially aspirin. Piroxicam is commercially available from Pfizer Inc. (New York, N.Y.), as FELDANE TM. Other suitable anti-platelet agents include ticlopidine, including pharmaceutically acceptable salts or prodrugs thereof Ticlopidine is also a preferred compound since it is known to be gentle on the gastro-intestinal tract in use. Still other suitable platelet inhibitory agents include thromboxane-A2-receptor antagonists and thromboxane-A2-synthetase inhibitors, as well as pharmaceutically acceptable salts or prodrugs thereof.
- The phrase “thrombin inhibitors” (or anti-thrombin agents), as used herein, denotes inhibitors of the serine protease thrombin. By inhibiting thrombin, various thrombin mediated processes, such as thrombin-mediated platelet activation (that is, for example, the aggregation of platelets, and/or the granular secretion of plasminogen activator inhibitor-i and/or serotonin) and/or fibrin formation are disrupted. Such inhibitors include boropeptides, hirudin and argatroban, including pharmaceutically acceptable salts and prodrugs thereof. Preferably the thrombin inhibitors are boropeptides. By boropeptides, it is meant, N-acetyl and peptide derivatives of boronic acid, such as C-terminal alpha -aminoboronic acid derivatives of lysine, ornithine, arginine, homoarginine and corresponding isothiouronium analogs thereof. The term hirudin, as used herein, includes suitable derivatives or analogs of hirudin, referred to herein as hirulogs, such as disulfatohirudin.
- The phrase “thrombolytic agents” or “fibrinolytic agents” or “thrombolytics” or “fibrinolytics”, as used herein, denotes agents that lyse blood clots (thrombi). Such agents include tissue plasminogen activator, anistreplase, urokinase or streptokinase, including pharmaceutically acceptable salts or prodrugs thereof. Tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) is commercially available from Genentech Inc., South San Francisco, Calif. The term anistreplase, as used herein, refers to anisoylated plasminogen streptokinase activator complex, as described, for example, in European Patent Application No. 0 28 489, the disclosures of which are hereby incorporated herein by reference herein, in their entirety. Anistreplase is commercially available from the Beecham Group, Middlesex, England, under the trademark EMINASE TM. The term urokinase, as used herein, is intended to denote both dual and single chain urokinase, the latter also being referred to herein as prourokinase.
- In yet other embodiments, the subject method can be carried out conjointly with the administration of growth and/or trophic factors. For instance, the trophic growth factor basic FGF has been demonstrated in the art to be useful in the functional recovery following experimental stroke. In experiments providing exogenous administration of bFGF after infarction, the early administration of bFGF was found to reduce infarct size. See, for example, Kawamata et al. (1997)Adv Neurol 73: 377-82. Likewise, progesterone has been shown to be neuroprotective after transient middle cerebral artery occlusion in male rats. Jiang et al. (1996) Brain Res 735:101-7. Other agents with which the subject hedgehog and ptc therapeutics can be coadministered include nitro-L-arginine, transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-beta 1) has been shown to rescue cultured neurons from excitotoxic and hypoxic cell death and to reduce infarct size after focal cerebral ischemia in mice and rabbits. In other instances, the combinatorial therapy can include a trophic factor such as nerve growth factor, cilliary neurotrophic growth factor, schwanoma-derived growth factor, glial growth factor, stiatal-derived neuronotrophic factor, platelet-derived growth factor, and scatter factor (HGF-SF). Antimitogenic agents can also be used, as for example, cytosine, arabinoside, 5-fluorouracil, hydroxyurea, and methotrexate.
- Determination of a therapeutically effective amount and a prophylactically effective amount of a hedgehog or ptc therapeutic, e.g., to be adequately neuroprotective, can be readily made by the physician or veterinarian (the “attending clinician”), as one skilled in the art, by the use of known techniques and by observing results obtained under analogous circumstances. The dosages may be varied depending upon the requirements of the patient in the judgment of the attending clinician, the severity of the condition being treated, the risk of further ischemic or hypoxic damage to the CNS, and the particular agent being employed. In determining the therapeutically effective neuroprotective amount or dose, and the prophylactically effective amount or dose, a number of factors are considered by the attending clinician, including, but not limited to: the specific cause of the ischemic or hypoxic state and its likelihood of recurring or worsening; pharmacodynamic characteristics of the particular agent and its mode and route of administration; the desired time course of treatment; the species of mammal; its size, age, and general health; the response of the individual patient; the particular compound administered; the bioavailability characteristics of the preparation administered; the dose regimen selected; the kind of concurrent treatment (i.e., the interaction of the hedgehog or ptc therapeutic with other co-administered therapeutics); and other relevant circumstances.
- Treatment can be initiated with smaller dosages which are less than the optimum dose of the agent. Thereafter, the dosage should be increased by small increments until the optimum effect under the circumstances is reached. For convenience, the total daily dosage may be divided and administered in portions during the day if desired. A therapeutically effective antineoplastic amount and a prophylactically effective neuroprotective amount of a hedgehog polypeptide, for instance, is expected to vary from concentrations about 0.1 nanogram per kilogram of body weight per day (kg/day) to about 100 kg/day.
- Potential hedgehog and ptc therapeutics, such as described below, can be tested by measuring the volume of cerebral infarction in animals receiving systemic injections. For instance, selected agents can be evaluated in the focal stroke model involving permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) in the spontaneously hypertensive rat. This procedure results in a reliably large neocortical infarct volume that is measured by means of vital dye exclusion in serial slices through the brain 24 hours after MCAO. Tamura et al. (1981)J Cerebral Blood Flow and Metabolism 1:53-60.
- The middle cerebral artery is the cerebral blood vessel most susceptible to stroke in humans. In animals, coagulation, permanent ligation or permanent placement of an occluding thread in the artery produces a permanent focal stroke affecting the MCA territory. Transient ligation or occlusion results in transient focal stroke. Both transient and permanent focal strokes result in varying degrees of edema and infarction in the affected brain regions. The ability of compounds to reduce the volumes of edema and infarction is considered a measure of their potential as anti-stroke treatment.
- Compounds which are determined to be effective for the prevention or treatment of cerebral infarction and the like in animals, e.g., dogs, rodents, may also be useful in treatment of tumors in humans. Those skilled in the art of treating such disorders in humans will be guided, from the data obtained in animal studies, to the correct dosage and route of administration of the compound to humans. In general, the determination of dosage and route of administration in humans is expected to be similar to that used to determine administration in animals.
- The identification of those patients who are in need of prophylactic treatment for ischemic or hypoxic states is well within the ability and knowledge of one skilled in the art. Certain of the methods for identification of patients which are at risk of cerebral infarction which can be treated by the subject method are appreciated in the medical arts, such as family history of the development of a particular disease state and the presence of risk factors associated with the development of that disease state in the subject patient. A clinician skilled in the art can readily identify such candidate patients, by the use of, for example, clinical tests, physical examination and medical/family history.
- IV. Exemplary Hedgehog Therapeutic Compounds.
- The hedgehog therapeutic compositions of the subject method can be generated by any of a variety of techniques, including purification of naturally occurring proteins, recombinantly produced proteins and synthetic chemistry. Polypeptide forms of the hedgehog therapeutics are preferably derived from vertebrate hedgehog proteins, e.g., have sequences corresponding to naturally occurring hedgehog proteins, or fragments thereof, from vertebrate organisms. However, it will be appreciated that the hedgehog polypeptide can correspond to a hedgehog protein (or fragment thereof) which occurs in any metazoan organism.
- The various naturally-occurring hedgehog proteins from which the subject therapeutics can be derived are characterized by a signal peptide, a highly conserved N-terminal region, and a more divergent C-terminal domain. In addition to signal sequence cleavage in the secretory pathway (Lee, J. J. et al. (1992)Cell 71:33-50; Tabata, T. et al. (1992) Genes Dev. 2635-2645; Chang, D. E. et al. (1994) Development 120:3339-3353), hedgehog precursor proteins naturally undergo an internal autoproteolytic cleavage which depends on conserved sequences in the C-terminal portion (Lee et al. (1994) Science 266:1528-1537; Porter et al. (1995) Nature 374:363-366). This autocleavage leads to a 19 kD N-terrninal peptide and a C-terminal peptide of 26-28 kD (Lee et al. (1992) supra; Tabata et al. (1992) supra; Chang et al. (1994) supra; Lee et al. (1994) supra; Bumcrot, D. A., et al. (1995) Mol. Cell. Biol. 15:2294-2303; Porter et al. (1995) supra; Ekker, S. C. et al. (1995) Curr. Biol. 5:944-955; Lai, C. J. et al. (1995) Development 121:2349-2360). The N-terminal peptide stays tightly associated with the surface of cells in, which it was synthesized, while the C-terminal peptide is freely diffusible both in vitro and in vivo (Lee et al. (1994) supra; Bumcrot et al. (1995) supra; Mart', E. et al. (1995) Development 121:2537-2547; Roelink, H. et al. (1995) Cell 81:445-455). Cell surface retention of the N-terminal peptide is dependent on autocleavage, as a truncated form of hedgehog encoded by an RNA which terminates precisely at the normal position of internal cleavage is diffusible in vitro (Porter et al. (1995) supra) and in vivo (Porter, J. A. et al. (1996) Cell 86, 21-34). Biochemical studies have shown that the autoproteolytic cleavage of the hedgehog precursor protein proceeds through an internal thioester intermediate which subsequently is cleaved in a nucleophilic substitution. It is suggested that the nucleophile is a small lipophilic molecule, more particularly cholesterol, which becomes covalently bound to the C-terminal end of the N-peptide (Porter et al. (1996) supra), tethering it to the cell surface.
- The vertebrate family of hedgehog genes includes at least four members, e.g., paralogs of the single drosophila hedgehog gene (SEQ ID No. 19). Three of these members, herein referred to as Desert hedgehog (Dhh), Sonic hedgehog (Shh) and Indian hedgehog (Ihh), apparently exist in all vertebrates, including fish, birds, and mammals. A fourth member, herein referred to as tiggie-winkle hedgehog (Thh), appears specific to fish. According to the appended sequence listing, (see also Table 1) a chicken Shh polypeptide is encoded by SEQ ID No:1; a mouse Dhh polypeptide is encoded by SEQ ID No:2; a mouse lhh polypeptide is encoded by SEQ ID No:3; a mouse Shh polypeptide is encoded by SEQ ID No:4 a zebrafish Shh polypeptide is encoded by SEQ ID No:5; a human Shh polypeptide is encoded by SEQID No:6; a human Ihh polypeptide is encoded by SEQ ID No:7; and a zebrafish Thh is encoded by SEQ ID No.8.
TABLE 1 Guide to hedgehog sequences in Sequence Listing Nucleotide Amino Acid Chicken Shh SEQ ID No. 1 SEQ ID No. 10 Mouse Dhh SEQ ID No. 2 SEQ ID No. 11 Mouse Ihh SEQ ID No. 3 SEQ ID No. 12 Mouse Shh SEQ ID No. 4 SEQ ID No. 13 Zebrafish Shh SEQ ID No. 5 SEQ ID No. 14 Human Shh SEQ ID No. 6 SEQ ID No. 15 Human Ihh SEQ ID No. 7 SEQ ID No. 16 Zebrafish Thh SEQ ID No. 8 SEQ ID No. 17 Drosophila HH SEQ ID No. 9 SEQ ID No. 18 - In addition to the sequence variation between the various hedgehog homologs, the hedgehog proteins are apparently present naturally in a number of different forms, including a pro-form, a full-length mature form, and several processed fragments thereof. The pro-form includes an N-terminal signal peptide for directed secretion of the extracellular domain, while the full-length mature form lacks this signal sequence.
- As described above, further processing of the mature form occurs in some instances to yield biologically active fragments of the protein. For instance, sonic hedgehog undergoes additional proteolytic processing to yield two peptides of approximately 19 kDa and 27 kDa, the 19 kDa fragment corresponding to an proteolytic N-terminal portion of the mature protein. In addition to proteolytic fragmentation, the vertebrate hedgehog proteins can also be modified post-translationally, such as by glycosylation and/or addition of cholesterol, though bacterially produced (e.g., unglycosylated/uncholesterolized) forms of the proteins still maintain certain of the bioactivities of the native protein. Bioactive fragments of hedgehog polypeptides of the present invention have been generated and are described in great detail in, e.g., PCT publications WO 95/18856 and WO 96/17924.
- Moreover, mutagenesis can be used to create modified hh polypeptides, e.g., for such purposes as enhancing therapeutic or prophylactic efficacy, or stability (e.g., ex vivo shelf life and resistance to proteolytic degradation in vivo). Such modified peptides can be produced, for instance, by amino acid substitution, deletion, or addition. Modified hedgehog polypeptides can also include those with altered post-translational processing relative to a naturally occurring hedgehog protein, e.g., altered glycosylation, cholesterolization, prenylation and the like.
- In one embodiment, the hedgehog therapeutic is a polypeptide encodable by a nucleotide sequence that hybridizes under stringent conditions to a hedgehog coding sequence represented in one or more of SEQ ID Nos: 1-9. Appropriate stringency conditions which promote DNA hybridization, for example, 6.0×sodium chloride/sodium citrate (SSC) at about 45° C., followed by a wash of 2.0×SSC at 50° C., are known to those skilled in the art or can be found inCurrent Protocols in Molecular Biology, John Wiley & Sons, N.Y. (1989), 6.3.1-6.3.6. For example, the salt concentration in the wash step can be selected from a low stringency of about 2.0×SSC at 50° C. to a high stringency of about 0.2×SSC at 50° C. In addition, the temperature in the wash step can be increased from low stringency conditions at room temperature, about 22° C., to high stringency conditions at about 65° C.
- As described in the literature, genes for other hedgehog proteins, e.g., from other animals, can be obtained from MRNA or genomic DNA samples using techniques well known in the art. For example, a cDNA encoding a hedgehog protein can be obtained by isolating total mRNA from a cell, e.g., a mammalian cell, e.g., a human cell, including embryonic cells. Double stranded cDNAs can then be prepared from the total MRNA, and subsequently inserted into a suitable plasmid or bacteriophage vector using any one of a number of known techniques. The gene encoding a hedgehog protein can also be cloned using established polymerase chain reaction techniques.
- Preferred nucleic acids encode a hedgehog polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence at least 60% homologous, more preferably 70% homologous and most preferably 80% homologous with an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID Nos: 10-18. Nucleic acids which encode polypeptides at least about 90%, more preferably at least about 95%, and most preferably at least about 98-99% homology with an amino acid sequence represented in one of SEQ ID Nos:10-18 are also within the scope of the invention.
- Hedgehog polypeptides preferred by the present invention, in addition to native hedgehog proteins, are at least 60% homologous, more preferably 70% homologous and most preferably 80% homologous with an amino acid sequence represented by any of SEQ ID Nos:10-18. Polypeptides which are at least 90%, more preferably at least 95%, and most preferably at least about 98-99% homologous with a sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID Nos:10-18 are also within the scope of the invention. The only prerequisite is that the hedgehog polypeptide is capable of protecting neuronal cells against ischemic damage.
- The term “recombinant protein” refers to a polypeptide of the present invention which is produced by recombinant DNA techniques, wherein generally, DNA encoding a hedgehog polypeptide is inserted into a suitable expression vector which is in turn used to transform a host cell to produce the heterologous protein. Moreover, the phrase “derived from”, with respect to a recombinant hedgehog gene, is meant to include within the meaning of “recombinant protein” those proteins having an amino acid sequence of a native nedgehog protein, or an amino acid sequence similar thereto which is generated by mutations including substitutions and deletions (including truncation) of a naturally occurring form of the protein.
- The method of the present invention can also be carried out using variant forms of the naturally occurring hedgehog polypeptides, e.g., mutational variants.
- As is known in the art, hedgehog polypeptides can be produced by standard biological techniques. For example, a host cell transfected with a nucleic acid vector directing expression of a nucleotide sequence encoding the subject polypeptides can be cultured under appropriate conditions to allow expression of the peptide to occur. The polypeptide hedgehog may be secreted and isolated from a mixture of cells and medium containing the recombinant hedgehog polypeptide. Alternatively, the peptide may be retained cytoplasmically by removing the signal peptide sequence from the recombinant hedgehog gene and the cells harvested, lysed and the protein isolated. A cell culture includes host cells, media and other byproducts. Suitable media for cell culture are well known in the art. The recombinant hedgehog polypeptide can be isolated from cell culture medium, host cells, or both using techniques known in the art for purifying proteins including ion-exchange chromatography, gel filtration chromatography, ultrafiltration, electrophoresis, and immunoaffinity purification with antibodies specific for such peptide. In a preferred embodiment, the recombinant hedgehog polypeptide is a fusion protein containing a domain which facilitates its purification, such as an hedgehoglGST fusion protein. The host cell may be any prokaryotic or eukaryotic cell.
- Recombinant hedgehog genes can be produced by ligating nucleic acid encoding an hedgehog protein, or a portion thereof, into a vector suitable for expression in either prokaryotic cells, eukaryotic cells, or both. Expression vectors for production of recombinant forms of the subject hedgehog polypeptides include plasmids and other vectors. For instance, suitable vectors for the expression of a hedgehog polypeptide include plasmids of the types: pBR322-derived plasmids, pEMBL-derived plasmids, pEX-derived plasmids, pBTac-derived plasmids and pUC-derived plasmids for expression in prokaryotic cells, such asE. coli.
- A number of vectors exist for the expression of recombinant proteins in yeast. For instance, YEP24, YIP5, YEP5 1, YEP52, pYES2, and YRP 17 are cloning and expression vehicles useful in the introduction of genetic constructs intoS. cerevisiae (see, for example, Broach et al. (1983) in Experimental Manipulation of Gene Expression, ed. M. Inouye Academic Press, p. 83, incorporated by reference herein). These vectors can replicate in E. coli due the presence of the pBR322 ori, and in S. cerevisiae due to the replication determinant of the yeast 2 micron plasmid. In addition, drug resistance markers such as ampicillin can be used. In an illustrative embodiment, an hedgehog polypeptide is produced recombinantly utilizing an expression vector generated by sub-cloning the coding sequence of one of the hedgehog genes represented in SEQ ID Nos:1-9 or 19.
- The preferred mammalian expression vectors contain both prokaryotic sequences, to facilitate the propagation of the vector in bacteria, and one or more eukaryotic transcription units that are expressed in eukaryotic cells. The pcDNAI/amp, pcDNAI/neo, pRc/CMV, pSV2gpt, pSV2neo, pSV2-dhfr, pTk2, pRSVneo, pMSG, pSVT7, pko-neo and pHyg derived vectors are examples of mammalian expression vectors suitable for transfection of eukaryotic cells. Some of these vectors are modified with sequences from bacterial plasmids, such as pBR322, to facilitate replication and drug resistance selection in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Alternatively, derivatives of viruses such as the bovine papillomavirus (3PV-1), or Epstein-Barr virus (pHEBo, pREP-derived and p205) can be used for transient expression of proteins in eukaryotic cells. The various methods employed in the preparation of the plasmids and transformation of host organisms are well known in the art. For other suitable expression systems for both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, as well as general recombinant procedures, seeMolecular Cloning A Laboratory Manual, 2nd Ed., ed. by Sambrook, Fritsch and Maniatis (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press: 1989) Chapters 16 and 17.
- In some instances, it may be desirable to express the recombinant hedgehog polypeptide by the use of a baculovirus expression system. Examples of such baculovirus expression systems include pVL-derived vectors (such as pVL1392, pVL1393 and pVL941), pAcUW-derived vectors (such as pAcUW1), and pBlueBac-derived vectors (such as the 13-gal containing pBlueBac III).
- When it is desirable to express only a portion of a hedgehog protein, such as a form lacking a portion of the N-terminus, i.e., a truncation mutant which lacks the signal peptide, it may be necessary to add a start codon (ATG) to the oligonucleotide fragment containing the desired sequence to be expressed. It is well known in the art that a methionine at the N-terminal position can be enzymatically cleaved by the use of the enzyme methionine aminopeptidase (MAP). MAP has been cloned fromE. coli (Ben-Bassat et al. (1987) J. Bacteriol. 169:751-757) and Salmonella typhimurium and its in vitro activity has been demonstrated on recombinant proteins (Miller et al. (1987) PNAS 84:2718-1722). Therefore, removal of an N-terminal methionine, if desired, can be achieved either in vivo by expressing hedgehog-derived polypeptides in a host which produces MAP (e.g., E. coli or CM89 or S. cerevisiae), or in vitro by use of purified MAP (e.g., procedure of Miller et al., supra).
- Alternatively, the coding sequences for the polypeptide can be incorporated as a part of a fusion gene including a nucleotide sequence encoding a different polypeptide. It is widely appreciated that fusion proteins can also facilitate the expression of proteins, and accordingly, can be used in the expression of the hedgehog polypeptides of the present invention. For example, hedgehog polypeptides can be generated as glutathione-S-transferase (GST-fusion) proteins. Such GST-fusion proteins can enable easy purification of the hedgehog polypeptide, as for example by the use of glutathione-derivatized matrices (see, for example,Current Protocols in Molecular Biology, eds. Ausubel et al. (N.Y.: John Wiley & Sons, 1991)). In another embodiment, a fusion gene coding for a purification leader sequence, such as a poly-(His)/enterokinase cleavage site sequence, can be used to replace the signal sequence which naturally occurs at the N-terminus of the hedgehog protein (e.g., of the pro-form, in order to permit purification of the poly(His)-hedgehog protein by affinity chromatography using a Ni2+ metal resin. The purification leader sequence can then be subsequently removed by treatment with enterokinase (e.g., see Hochuli et al. (1987) J. Chromatography 411:177; and Janknecht et al. PNAS 88:8972).
- Techniques for making fusion genes are known to those skilled in the art. Essentially, the joining of various DNA fragments coding for different polypeptide sequences is performed in accordance with conventional techniques, employing blunt-ended or stagger-ended termini for ligation, restriction enzyme digestion to provide for appropriate termini, filling-in of cohesive ends as appropriate, alkaline phosphatase treatment to avoid undesirable joining, and enzymatic ligation. In another embodiment, the fusion gene can be synthesized by conventional techniques including automated DNA synthesizers. Alternatively, PCR amplification of gene fragments can be carried out using anchor primers which give rise to complementary overhangs between two consecutive gene fragments which can subsequently be annealed to generate a chimeric gene sequence (see, for example,Current Protocols in Molecular Biology, eds. Ausubel et al. John Wiley & Sons: 1992).
- Hedgehog polypeptides may also be chemically modified to create hedgehog derivatives by forming covalent or aggregate conjugates with other chemical moieties, such as glycosyl groups, cholesterol, isoprenyl, myristyl, lipids, phosphate, acetyl groups and the like. Covalent derivatives of hedgehog proteins can be prepared by linking the chemical moieties to functional groups on amino acid sidechains of the protein or at the N-terminus or at the C-terminus of the polypeptide.
- For instance, hedgehog proteins can be generated to include a moiety, other than sequence naturally associated with the protein, that binds a component of the extracellular matrix and enhances localization of the analog to cell surfaces. For example, sequences derived from the fibronectin “type-III repeat”, such as a tetrapeptide sequence R-G-D-S (Pierschbacher et al. (1984)Nature 309:30-3; and Kornblihtt et al. (1985) EMBO 4:1755-9) can be added to the hedgehog polypeptide to support attachment of the chimeric molecule to a cell through binding ECM components (Ruoslahti et al. (1987) Science 238:491-497; Pierschbacheret al. (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262:17294-8.; Hynes (1987) Cell 48:549-54; and Hynes (1992) Cell 69:11-25).
- In a preferred embodiment, the hedgehog polypeptide is isolated from, or is otherwise substantially free of, other cellular proteins, especially other extracellular or cell surface associated proteins which may normally be associated with the hedgehog polypeptide. The term “substantially free of other cellular or extracellular proteins” (also referred to herein as “contaminating proteins”) or “substantially pure or purified preparations” are defined as encompassing preparations of hedgehog polypeptides having less than 20% (by dry weight) contaminating protein, and preferably having less than 5% contaminating protein. By “purified”, it is meant that the indicated molecule is present in the substantial absence of other biological macromolecules, such as other proteins. The term “purified” as used herein preferably means at least 80% by dry weight, more preferably in the range of 95-99% by weight, and most preferably at least 99.8% by weight, of biological macromolecules of the same type present (but water. buffers, and other small molecules, especially molecules having a molecular weight of less than 5000, can be present). The term “pure” as used herein preferably has the same numerical limits as “purified” immediately above.
- As described above for recombinant polypeptides, isolated hedgehog polypeptides can include all or a portion of the amino acid sequences represented in any of SEQ ID Nos:10-18, or a homologous sequence thereto. Preferred fragments of the subject hedgehog proteins correspond to the N-terminal and C-terminal proteolytic fragments of the mature protein. Bioactive fragments of hedgehog polypeptides are described in great detail in PCT publications WO 95/18856 and WO 96/17924.
- With respect to bioctive fragments of hedgehog polypeptide, preferred hedgehog therapeutics include at least 50 amino acid residues of a hedgehog polypeptide, more preferably at least 100, and even more preferably at least 150.
- Another preferred hedgehog polypeptide which can be included in the hedgehog therapeutic is an N-terminal fragment of the mature protein having a molecular weight of approximately 19 kDa.
- Preferred human hedgehog proteins include N-terminal fragments corresponding approximately to residues 24-197 of SEQ ID No. 15 and 28-202 of SEQ ID No. 16. By “corresponding approximately” it is meant that the sequence of interest is at most 20 amino acid residues different in length to the reference sequence, though more preferably at most 5, 10 or 15 amino acid different in length.
- Still other preferred hedgehog polypeptides include an amino acid sequence represented by the formula A-B wherein: (i) A represents all or the portion of the amino acid sequence designated by residues 1-168 of SEQ ID No:19; and B represents at least one amino acid residue of the amino acid sequence designated by residues 169-221 of SEQ ID No: 19; (ii) A represents all or the portion of the amino acid sequence designated by residues 24-193 of SEQ ID No: 15; and B represents at least one amino acid residue of the amino acid sequence designated by residues 194-250 of SEQ ID No:15; (iii) A represents all or the portion of the amino acid sequence designated by residues 25-193 of SEQ ID No:13; and B represents at least one amino acid residue of the amino acid sequence designated by residues 194-250 of SEQ ID No:13; (iv) A represents all or the portion of the amino acid sequence designated by residues 23-193 of SEQ ID No: 1; and B represents at least one amino acid residue of the amino acid sequence designated by residues 194-250 of SEQ ID No: 1; (v) A represents all or the portion of the amino acid sequence designated by residues 28-197 of SEQ ID No: 12; and B represents at least one amino acid residue of the amino acid sequence designated by residues 198-250 of SEQ ID No:12; or (vi) A represents all or the portion of the amino acid sequence designated by residues 29-197 of SEQ ID No:16; and B represents at least one amino acid residue of the amino acid sequence designated by residues 198-250 of SEQ ID No:16. In certain preferred embodiments, A and B together represent a contiguous polypeptide sequence of the designated sequence, A represents at least 25, 50, 75, 100, 125 or 150 amino acids of the designated sequence, and B represents at least 5, 10, or 20 amino acid residues of the amino acid sequence designated by corresponding entry in the sequence listing, and A and B together preferably represent a contiguous sequence corresponding to the sequence listing entry. Similar fragments from other hedgehog proteins are also contemplated, e.g., fragments which correspond to the preferred fragments from the sequence listing entries which are enumerated above.
- Isolated peptidyl portions of hedgehog proteins can be obtained by screening peptides recombinantly produced from the corresponding fragment of the nucleic acid encoding such peptides. In addition, fragments can be chemically synthesized using techniques known in the art such as conventional Merrifield solid phase f-Moc or t-Boc chemistry. For example, a hedgehog polypeptide of the present invention may be arbitrarily divided into fragments of desired length with no overlap of the fragments, or preferably divided into overlapping fragments of a desired length. The fragments can be produced (recombinantly or by chemical synthesis) and tested to identify those peptidyl fragments which can function as agonists of a wild-type (e.g., “authentic”) hedgehog protein. For example, Román et al. (1994)Eur J Biochem 222:65-73 describe the use of competitive-binding assays using short, overlapping synthetic peptides from larger proteins to identify binding domains.
- The recombinant hedgehog polypeptides of the present invention also include homologs of the authentic hedgehog proteins, such as versions of those protein which are resistant to proteolytic cleavage, as for example, due to mutations which alter potential cleavage sequences or which inactivate an enzymatic activity associated with the protein. Hedgehog homologs of the present invention also include proteins which have been post-translationally modified in a manner different than the authentic protein. Exemplary derivatives of hedgehog proteins include polypeptides which lack glycosylation sites (e.g., to produce an unglycosylated protein), which lack sites for cholesterolization, and/or which lack N-terminal and/or C-terminal sequences.
- Modification of the structure of the subject hedgehog polypeptides can also be for such purposes as enhancing therapeutic or prophylactic efficacy, or stability (e.g., ex vivo shelf life and resistance to proteolytic degradation in vivo). Such modified peptides, when designed to retain at least one activity of the naturally-occurring form of the protein, are considered fuinctional equivalents of the hedgehog polypeptides described in more detail herein. Such modified peptides can be produced, for instance, by amino acid substitution, deletion, or addition.
- It is well known in the art that certain isolated replacements of amino acids, e.g., replacement of an amino acid residue with another related amino acid (i.e., isosteric and/or isoelectric mutations), can be carried out without major effect on the biological activity of the resulting molecule. Conservative replacements are those that take place within a family of amino acids that are related in their side chains. Genetically encoded amino acids are can be divided into four families: (1) acidic=aspartate, glutamate; (2) basic=lysine, arginine, histidine; (3) nonpolar=alanine, valine, leucine, isoleucine, proline, phenylalanine, methionine, tryptophan; and (4) uncharged polar=glycine, asparagine, glutamine, cysteine, serine, threonine, tyrosine. Phenylalanine, tryptophan, and tyrosine are sometimes classified jointly as aromatic amino acids. In similar fashion, the amino acid repertoire can be grouped as (1) acidic=aspartate, glutamate; (2) basic=lysine, arginine histidine, (3) aliphatic=glycine, alanine, valine, leucine, isoleucine, serine, threonine, with serine and threonine optionally be grouped separately as aliphatic-hydroxyl; (4) aromatic=phenylalanine, tyrosine, tryptophan; (5) amide=asparagine, glutamine; and (6) sulfur -containing=cysteine and methionine. (see, for example,Biochemistry, 2nd ed., Ed. by L. Stryer, W H Freeman and Co.: 1981). Whether a change in the amino acid sequence of a peptide results in a functional hedgehog homolog (e.g., functional in the sense that it acts to mimic or antagonize the wild-type form) can be readily determined by assessing the ability of the variant peptide to produce a response in cells in a fashion similar to the wild-type protein, or competitively inhibit such a response. Polypeptides in which more than one replacement has taken place can readily be tested in the same manner.
- It is specifically contemplated that the methods of the present invention can be carried out using homologs of naturally occurring hedgehog proteins. In one embodiment, the invention contemplates using hedgehog polypeptides generated by combinatorial mutagenesis. Such methods, as are known in the art, are convenient for generating both point and truncation mutants, and can be especially useful for identifying potential variant sequences (e.g., homologs) that are functional in binding to a receptor for hedgehog proteins. The purpose of screening such combinatorial libraries is to generate, for example, novel hedgehog homologs which can act as neuroprotective agents. To illustrate, hedgehog homologs can be engineered by the present method to provide more efficient binding to a cognate receptor, such as patched, retaining neuroprotective activity. Thus, combinatorially-derived homologs can be generated to have an increased potency relative to a naturally occurring form of the protein. Moreover, manipulation of certain domains of hedgehog by the present method can provide domains more suitable for use in fusion proteins, such as one that incorporates portions of other proteins which are derived from the extracellular matrix and/or which bind extracellular matrix components.
- To further illustrate the state of the art of combinatorial mutagenesis, it is noted that the review article of Gallop et al. (1994)J Med Chem 37:1233 describes the general state of the art of combinatorial libraries as of the earlier 1990's. In particular, Gallop et al. state at page 1239 “[s]creening the analog libraries aids in determining the minimum size of the active sequence and in identifying those residues critical for binding and intolerant of substitution”. In addition, the Ladner et al. PCT publication WO90/02809, the Goeddel et al. U.S. Pat. No. 5,223,408, and the Markland et al. PCT publication WO92/15679 illustrate specific techniques which one skilled in the art could utilize to generate libraries of hedgehog variants which can be rapidly screened to identify variants/fragments which retained a particular activity of the hedgehog polypeptides. These techniques are exemplary of the art and demonstrate that large libraries of related variants/truncants can be generated and assayed to isolate particular variants without undue experimentation. Gustin et al. (1993) Virology 193:653, and Bass et al. (1990) Proteins:Structure, Function and Genetics 8:309-314 also describe other exemplary techniques from the art which can be adapted as means for generating mutagenic variants of hedgehog polypeptides.
- Indeed, it is plain from the combinatorial mutagenesis art that large scale mutagenesis of hedgehog proteins, without any preconceived ideas of which residues were critical to the biological fuiction, and generate wide arrays of variants having equivalent biological activity. Indeed, it is the ability of combinatorial techniques to screen billions of different variants-by high throughout analysis that removes any requirement ofa priori understanding or knowledge of critical residues.
- To illustrate, the amino acid sequences for a population of hedgehog homologs or other related proteins are aligned, preferably to promote the highest homology possible. Such a population of variants can include, for example, hedgehog homologs from one or more species. Amino acids which appear at each position of the aligned sequences are selected to create a degenerate set of combinatorial sequences. In a preferred embodiment, the variegated library of hedgehog variants is generated by combinatorial mutagenesis at the nucleic acid level, and is encoded by a.variegated gene library. For instance, a mixture of synthetic oligonucleotides can be enzymatically ligated into gene sequences such that the degenerate set of potential hedgehog sequences are expressible as individual polypeptides, or alternatively, as a set of larger fusion proteins (e.g., for phage display) containing the set of hedgehog sequences therein.
- As illustrated in PCT publication WO 95/18856, to analyze the sequences of a population of variants, the amino acid sequences of interest can be aligned relative to sequence homology. The presence or absence of amino acids from an aligned sequence of a particular variant is relative to a chosen consensus length of a reference sequence, which can be real or artificial.
- In an illustrative embodiment, alignment of exons 1, 2 and a portion of exon 3 encoded sequences (e.g., the N-terminal approximately 221 residues of the mature protein) of each of the Shh clones produces a degenerate set of Shh polypeptides represented by the general formula:
C-G-P-G-R-G-X(1)-G-X(2)-R-R-H-P-K- (SEQ ID No: 19) K-L-T-P-L-A-Y-K-Q-F-I-P-N-V-A-E-K- T-L-G-A-S-G-R-Y-E-G-K-I-X(3)-R-N- S-E-R-F-K-E-L-T-P-N-Y-N-P-D-I-I-F- K-D-E-E-N-T-G-A-D-R-L-M-T-Q-R-C-K- D-K-L-N-X(4)-L-A-I-S-V-M-N-X(5)-W- P-G-V-X(6)-L-R-V-T-E-G-W-D-E-D-G- H-H-X(7)-E-E-S-L-H-Y-E-G-R-A-V-D- I-T-T-S-D-R-D-X(8)-S-K-Y-G-X(9)-L- X(10)-R-L-A-V-E-A-G-F-D-W-V-Y-Y-E- S-K-A-H-I-H-C-S-V-K-A-E-N-S-V-A-A- K-S-G-G-C-F-P-G-S-A-X(11)-V-X(12)- L-X(13)-X(14)-G-G-X(15)-K-X-(16)- V-K-D-L-X(17)-P-G-D-X(18)-V-L-A-A- D-X(19)-X(20)-G-X(21)-L-X(22)- X(23)-S-D-F-X(24)-X(25)-F-X(26)-D- R, - wherein each of the degenerate positions “X” can be an amino acid which occurs in that position in one of the human, mouse, chicken or zebrafish Shh clones, or, to expand the library, each X can also be selected from amongst amino acid residue which would be conservative substitutions for the amino acids which appear naturally in each of those positions. For instance, Xaa(1) represents Gly, Ala, Val, Leu, Ile, Phe, Tyr or Trp ; Xaa(2) represents Arg, His or Lys; Xaa(3) represents Gly, Ala, Val, Leu, Ile, Ser or Thr; Xaa(4) represents Gly, Ala, Val, Leu, Ile, Ser or Thr; Xaa(5) represents Lys, Arg, His, Asn or Gln; Xaa(6) represents Lys, Arg or His; Xaa(7) represents Ser, Thr, Tyr, Trp or Phe; Xaa(8) represents Lys, Arg or His; Xaa(9) represents Met, Cys, Ser or Thr; Xaa(10) represents Gly, Ala, Val, Leu, Ile, Ser or Thr; Xaa(l 1) represents Leu, Val, Met, Thr or Ser; Xaa(12) represents His, Phe, Tyr, Ser, Thr, Met or Cys; Xaa(13) represents Gln, Asn, Glu, or Asp; Xaa(14) represents His, Phe, Tyr, Thr, Gln, Asn, Glu or Asp; Xaa(15) represents Gln, Asn, Glu, Asp, Thr, Ser, Met or Cys; Xaa(16) represents Ala, Gly, Cys, Leu, Val or Met; Xaa(17) represents Arg, Lys, Met, Ile, Asn, Asp, Glu, Gln, Ser, Thr or Cys; Xaa(18) represents Arg, Lys, Met or Ile; Xaa(19) represents Ala, Gly, Cys, Asp, Glu, Gln, Asn, Ser, Thr or Met; Xaa(20) represents Ala, Gly, Cys, Asp, Asn, Glu or Gln; Xaa(21) represents Arg, Lys, Met, Ile, Asn, Asp, Glu or Gln; Xaa(22) represent Leu, Val, Met or Ile; Xaa(23) represents Phe, Tyr, Thr, His or Trp; Xaa(24) represents Ile, Val, Leu or Met; Xaa(25) represents Met, Cys, Ile, Leu, Val, Thr or Ser; Xaa(26) represents Leu, Val, Met, Thr or Ser. In an even more expansive library, each X can be selected from any amino acid.
- In similar fashion, alignment of each of the human, mouse, chicken and zebrafish hedgehog clones, can provide a degenerate polypeptide sequence represented by the general formula:
C-G-P-G-R-G-X(1)-X(2)-X(3)-R-R- (SEQ ID No: 20) X(4)-X(5)-X(6)-P-K-X(7)-L-X(8)-P- L-X(9)-Y-K-Q-F-X(10)-P-X(11)- X(12)-X(13)-E-X(14)-T-L-G-A-S-G- X(15)-X(16)-E-G-X(17)-X(18)-X(19)- R-X(20)-S-E-R-F-X(21)-X(22)-L-T-P- N-Y-N-P-D-I-I-F-K-D-E-E-N-X(23)-G- A-D-R-L-M-T-X(24)-R-C-K-X(25)- X(26)-X(27)-N-X(28)-L-A-I-S-V-M-N- X(29)-W-P-G-V-X(30)-L-R-V-T-E-G- X(31)-D-E-D-G-H-H-X(32)-X(33)- X(34)-S-L-H-Y-E-G-R-A-X(35)-D-I-T- T-S-D-R-D-X(36)-X(37)-K-Y-G-X(38)- L-X(39)-R-L-A-V-E-A-G-F-D-W-V-Y-Y- E-S-X(40)-X(41)-H-X(42)-H-X(43)-S- V-K-X(44)-X(45), - wherein, as above, each of the degenerate positions “X” can be an amino acid which occurs in a corresponding position in one of the wild-type clones, and may also include amino acid residue which would be conservative substitutions, or each X can be any amino acid residue. In an exemplary embodiment, Xaa(1) represents Gly, Ala, Val, Leu, Ile, Pro, Phe or Tyr; Xaa(2) represents Gly, Ala, Val, Leu or Ile; Xaa(3) represents Gly, Ala, Val, Leu, Ile, Lys, His or Arg; Xaa(4) represents Lys, Arg or His; Xaa(5) represents Phe, Trp, Tyr or an amino acid gap; Xaa(6) represents Gly, Ala, Val, Leu, Ile or an amino acid gap; Xaa(7) represents Asn, Gln, His, Arg or Lys; Xaa(8) represents Gly, Ala, Val, Leu, Ile, Ser or Thr; Xaa(9) represents Gly, Ala, Val, Leu, Ile, Ser or Thr; Xaa(10) represents Gly, Ala, Val, Leu, Ile, Ser or Thr; Xaa(l 1) represents Ser, Thr, Gln or Asn; Xaa(12) represents Met, Cys, Gly, Ala, Val, Leu, Ile, Ser or Thr; Xaa(13) represents Gly, Ala, Val, Leu, Ile or Pro; Xaa(14) represents Arg, His or Lys; Xaa(15) represents Gly, Ala, Val, Leu, Ile, Pro, Arg, His or Lys; Xaa(16) represents Gly, Ala, Val, Leu, Ile, Phe or Tyr; Xaa(17) represents Arg, His or Lys; Xaa(18) represents Gly, Ala, Val, Leu, Ile, Ser or Thr; Xaa(19) represents Thr or Ser; Xaa(20) represents Gly, Ala, Val, Leu, Ile, Asn or Gln; Xaa(21) represents Arg, His or Lys; Xaa(22) represents Asp or Glu; Xaa(23) represents Ser or Thr; Xaa(24) represents Glu, Asp, Gln or Asn; Xaa(25) represents Glu or Asp; Xaa(26) represents Arg, His or Lys; Xaa(27) represents Gly, Ala, Val, Leu or Ile; Xaa(28) represents Gly, Ala, Val, Leu, Ile, Thr or Ser; Xaa(29) represents Met, Cys, Gln, Asn, Arg, Lys or His; Xaa(30) represents Arg, His or Lys; Xaa(31) represents Trp, Phe, Tyr, Arg, His or Lys; Xaa(32) represents Gly, Ala, Val, Leu, Ile, Ser, Thr, Tyr or Phe; Xaa(33) represents Gin, Asn, Asp or Glu; Xaa(34) represents Asp or Glu; Xaa(35) represents Gly, Ala, Val, Leu, or Ile; Xaa(36) represents Arg, His or Lys; Xaa(37) represents Asn, Gln, Thr or Ser; Xaa(38) represents Gly, Ala, Val, Leu, Ile, Ser, Thr, Met or Cys; Xaa(39) represents Gly, Ala, Val, Leu, Ile, Thr or Ser; Xaa(40) represents Arg, His or Lys; Xaa(4 1) represents Asn, Gln, Gly, Ala, Val, Leu or Ile; Xaa(42) represents Gly, Ala, Val, Leu or Ile; Xaa(43) represents Gly; Ala, Val, Leu, Ile, Ser, Thr or Cys; Xaa(44) represents Gly, Ala, Val, Leu, Ile, Thr or Ser; and Xaa(45) represents Asp or Glu.
- There are many ways by which the library of potential hedgehog homologs can be generated from a degenerate oligonucleotide sequence. Chemical synthesis of a degenerate gene sequence can be carried out in an automatic DNA synthesizer, and the synthetic genes then ligated into an appropriate expression vector. The purpose of a degenerate set of genes is to provide, in one mixture, all of the sequences encoding the desired set of potential hedgehog sequences. The synthesis of degenerate oligonucleotides is well known in the art (see for example, Narang, SA (1983)Tetrahedron 39:3; Itakura et al. (1981) Recombinant DATA, Proc 3rd Cleveland Sympos. Macromolecules, ed. A G Walton, Arnsterdam: Elsevier pp273-289; Itakura et al. (1984) Annu. Rev. Biochem. 53:323; Itakura et al. (1984) Science 198:1056; Ike et al. (1983) Nucleic Acid Res. 11:477. Such techniques have been employed in the directed evolution of other proteins (see, for example, Scott et al. (1990) Science 249:386-390; Roberts et al. (1992) PNAS 89:2429-2433; Devlin et al. (1990) Science 249: 404-406; Cwirla et al. (1990) PNAS 87: 6378-6382; as well as U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,223,409, 5,198,346, and 5,096,815).
- A wide range of techniques are known in the art for screening gene products of combinatorial libraries made by point mutations, and for screening cDNA libraries for gene products having a certain property. Such techniques will be generally adaptable for rapid screening of the gene libraries generated by the combinatorial mutagenesis of hedgehog homologs. The most widely used techniques for screening large gene libraries typically comprises cloning the gene library into replicable expression vectors, transforming appropriate cells with the resulting library of vectors, and expressing the combinatorial genes under conditions in which detection of a desired activity facilitates relatively easy isolation of the vector encoding the gene whose product was detected. Each of the illustrative assays described below are amenable to high through-put analysis as necessary to screen large numbers of degenerate hedgehog sequences created by combinatorial mutagenesis techniques.
- In one embodiment, the combinatorial library is designed to be secreted (e.g., the polypeptides of the library all include a signal sequence but no transmembrane or cytoplasmic domains), and is used to transfect a eukaryotic cell that can be co-cultured with neuronal cells. A functional hedgehog protein secreted by the cells expressing the combinatorial library will diffuse to neighboring neuronal cells and induce a particular biological response, such as protection against cell death under oxygen-deprevation conditions (e.g., high CO2 culture -conditions). The pattern of detection of proliferation will resemble a gradient function, and will allow the isolation (generally after several repetitive rounds of selection) of cells producing hedgehog homologs active as neuroprotective agents with respect to neuronal cells.
- To illustrate, target neuronal cells are cultured in 24-well microtitre plates. Other eukaryotic cells are transfected with the combinatorial hedgehog gene library and cultured in cell culture inserts (e.g., Collaborative Biomedical Products, Catalog #40446) that are able to fit into the wells of the microtitre plate. The cell culture inserts are placed in the wells such that recombinant hedgehog homologs secreted by the cells in the insert can diffuse through the porous bottom of the insert and contact the target cells in the microtitre plate wells. After a period of time sufficient for fimctional forms of a hedgehog protein to produce a measurable response in the target cells, such as neuroprotection, the inserts are removed and the effect of the variant hedgehog proteins on the target cells determined. Cells from the inserts corresponding to wells which score positive for activity can be split and re-cultured on several inserts, the process being repeated until the active clones are identified.
- In yet another screening assay, the candidate hedgehog gene products are displayed on the surface of a cell or viral particle, and the ability of particular cells or viral particles to associate with a hedgehog-binding moiety (such as the patched protein or other hedgehog receptor) via this gene product is detected in a “panning assay”. Such panning steps can be carried out on cells cultured from embryos. For instance, the gene library can be cloned into the gene for a surface membrane protein of a bacterial cell, and the resulting fusion protein detected by panning (Ladner et al., WO 88/06630; Fuchs et al. (1991)Bio/Technology 9:1370-1371; and Goward et al. (1992) TIBS 18:136-140). In a similar fashion, fluorescently labeled molecules which bind hedgehog can be used to score for potentially functional hedgehog homologs. Cells can be visually inspected and separated under a fluorescence microscope, or, where the morphology of the cell permits, separated by a fluorescence-activated cell sorter.
- In an alternate embodiment, the gene library is expressed as a fusion protein on the surface of a viral particle. For instance, in the filamentous phage system, foreign peptide sequences can be expressed on the surface of infectious phage, thereby conferring two significant benefits. First, since these phage can be applied to affinity matrices at very high concentrations, large number of phage can be screened at one time. Second, since each infectious phage displays the combinatorial gene product on its surface, if a particular phage is recovered from an affinity matrix in low yield, the phage can be amplified by another round of infection. The group of almost identicalE. coli filamentous phages M13, fd, and fl are most often used in phage display libraries, as either of the phage gIII or gVIII coat proteins can be used to generate fusion proteins without disrupting the ultimate packaging of the viral particle (Ladner et al. PCT publication WO 90/02909; Garrard et al., PCT publication WO 92/09690; Marks et al. (1992) J. Biol. Chem. 267:16007-16010; Griffths et al. (1993) EMBO J 12:725-734; Clackson et al. (1991) Nature 352:624-628; and Barbas et al. (1992) PNAS 89:4457-4461).
- In an illustrative embodiment, the recombinant phage antibody system (RPAS, Pharamacia Catalog number 27-9400-01) can be easily modified for use in expressing and screening hedgehog combinatorial libraries. For instance, the
pCANTAB 5 phagemid of the RPAS kit contains the gene which encodes the phage gill coat protein. The hedgehog combinatorial gene library can be cloned into the phagemid adjacent to the gilI signal sequence such that it will be expressed as a gIII fusion protein. After ligation, the phagemid is used to transform competent E. coli TG1 cells. Transformed cells are subsequently infected with M13KO7 helper phage to rescue the phagemid and its candidate hedgehog gene insert. The resulting recombinant phage contain phagemid DNA encoding a specific candidate hedgehog, and display one or more copies of the corresponding fusion coat protein. The phage-displayed candidate hedgehog proteins which are capable of binding an hedgehog receptor are selected or enriched by panning. For instance, the phage library can be applied to cells which express the patched protein and unbound phage washed away from the cells. The bound phage is then isolated, and if the recombinant phage express at least one copy of the wild type glll coat protein, they will retain their ability to infect E. coli. Thus, successive rounds of reinfection of E. coli, and panning will greatly enrich for hedgehog homologs, which can then be screened for further biological activities in order to differentiate agonists and antagonists. - Combinatorial mutagenesis has a potential to generate very large libraries of mutant proteins, e.g., in the order of 1026 molecules. Combinatorial libraries of this size may be technically challenging to screen even with high throughput screening assays such as phage display. To overcome this problem, a new technique has been developed recently, recrusive ensemble mutagenesis (REM), which allows one to avoid the very high proportion of non-functional proteins in a random library and simply enhances the frequency of functional proteins, thus decreasing the complexity required to achieve a useful sampling of sequence space. REM is an algorithm which enhances the frequency of functional mutants in a library when an appropriate selection or screening method is employed (Arkin and Yourvan, 1992, PNAS USA 89:7811-7815; Yourvan et al., 1992, Parallel Problem Solvingfrom Nature, 2., In Maenner and Manderick, eds., Elsevir Publishing Co., Amsterdam, pp. 401-410; Delgrave et al., 1993, Protein Engineering 6(3):327-33 1).
- The invention also provides for reduction of the hedgehog protein to generate mimetics, e.g., peptide or non-peptide agents, which are able to mimic the neuroprotective activity of a naturally-occurring hedgehog polypeptide. Thus, such mutagenic techniques as described above are also useful to map the determinants of the hedgehog proteins which participate in protein-protein interactions involved in, for example, binding of the subject hedgehog polypeptide to other extracellular matrix components such as its receptor(s). To illustrate, the critical residues of a subject hedgehog polypeptide which are involved in molecular recognition of an hedgehog receptor such as patched can be determined and used to generate hedgehog-derived peptidomimetics which competitively bind with that moiety. By employing, for example, scanning mutagenesis to map the amino acid residues of each of the subject hedgehog proteins which are involved in binding other extracellular proteins, peptidomimetic compounds can be generated which mimic those residues of the hedgehog protein which facilitate the interaction. After distinguishing between agonist and antagonists, such agonistic mimetics may be used to mimic the normal function of a hedgehog protein in the treatment ischemia. For instance, non-hydrolyzable peptide analogs of such residues can be generated using benzodiazepine (e.g., see Freidinger et al. inPeptides: Chemistry and Biology, G. R. Marshall ed., ESCOM Publisher:Leiden, Netherlands, 1988), azepine (e.g., see Huffman et al. in Peptides: Chemistry and Biology, G. R. Marshall ed., ESCOM Publisher: Leiden, Netherlands, 1988), substituted gama lactam rings (Garvey et al. in Peptides: Chemistry and Biology, G. R. Marshall ed., ESCOM Publisher: Leiden, Netherlands, 1988), keto-methylene pseudopeptides (Ewenson et al. (1986) J Med Chem 29:295; and Ewenson et al. in Peptides: Structure and Function (Proceedings of the 9th American Peptide Symposium) Pierce Chemical Co. Rockland, Ill., 1985), β-turn dipeptide cores (Nagai et al. (1985) Tetrahedron Lett 26:647; and Sato et al. (1986) J Chem Soc Perkin Trans 1:1231), and β-aminoalcohols (Gordon et al. (1985) Biochem Biophys Res Communl 26:419; and Dann et al. (1986) Biochem Biophys Res Commun 134:71).
- Recombinantly produced forms of the hedgehog proteins can be produced using, e.g, expression vectors containing a nucleic acid encoding a hedgehog polypeptide, operably linked to at least one transcriptional regulatory sequence. Operably linked is intended to mean that the nucleotide sequence is linked to a regulatory sequence in a manner which allows expression of the nucleotide sequence. Regulatory sequences are art-recognized and are selected to direct expression of a hedgehog polypeptide. Accordingly, the term transcriptional regulatory sequence includes promoters, enhancers and other expression control elements. Such regulatory sequences are described in Goeddel;Gene Expression Technology: Methods in Enzymology 185, Academic Press, San Diego, Calif. (1990). For instance, any of a wide variety of expression control sequences, sequences that control the expression of a DNA sequence when operatively linked to it, may be used in these vectors to express DNA sequences encoding hedgehog polypeptide. Such useful expression control sequences, include, for example, a viral LTR, such as the LTR of the Moloney murine leukemia virus, the early and late promoters of SV40, adenovirus or cytomegalovirus immediate early promoter, the lac system, the trp system, the TAC or TRC system, T7 promoter whose expression is directed by T7 RNA polymerase, the major operator and promoter regions of phage λ, the control regions for fd coat protein, the promoter for 3-phosphoglycerate kinase or other glycolytic enzymes, the promoters of acid phosphatase, e.g., Pho5, the promoters of the yeast ax-mating factors, the polyhedron promoter of the baculovirus system and other sequences known to. control the expression of genes of prokaryotic or eukaryotic cells or their viruses, and various combinations thereof. It should be understood that the design of the expression vector may depend on such factors as the choice of the host cell to be transformed and/or the type of protein desired to be expressed. Moreover, the vector's copy number, the ability to control that copy number and the expression of any other proteins encoded by the vector, such as antibiotic markers, should also be considered.
- In addition to providing a ready source of hedgehog polypeptides for purification, the gene constructs of the present invention can also be used as a part of a gene therapy protocol to deliver nucleic acids encoding either a neuroprotective form of a hedgehog polypeptide. Thus, another aspect of the invention features expression vectors for in vivo transfection of a hedgehog polypeptide in particular cell types so as to cause ectopic expression of a hedgehog polypeptide in neuronal tissue.
- Formulations of such expression constructs may be administered in any biologically effective carrier, e.g., any formulation or composition capable of effectively delivering the recombinant gene to cells in vivo. Approaches include insertion of the hedgehog coding sequence in viral vectors including recombinant retroviruses, adenovirus, adeno-associated virus, and herpes simplex virus-1, or recombinant bacterial or eukaryotic plasmids. Viral vectors transfect cells directly; plasmid DNA can be delivered with the help of, for example, cationic liposomes (lipofectin) or derivatized (e.g., antibody conjugated), polylysine conjugates, gramacidin S, artificial viral envelopes or other such intracellular carriers, as well as direct injection of the gene construct or CaPO4 precipitation carried out in vivo. It will be appreciated that because transduction of appropriate target cells represents the critical first step in gene therapy, choice of the particular gene delivery system will depend on such factors as the phenotype of the intended target and the route of administration, e.g., locally or systemically. Furthermore, it will be recognized that the particular gene construct provided for in vivo transduction of hedgehog expression are also useful for in vitro transduction of cells, such as-for use in the ex vivo tissue culture systems described below.
- A preferred approach for in vivo introduction of nucleic acid into a cell is by use of a viral vector containing nucleic acid, e.g., a cDNA, encoding the particular form of the hedgehog polypeptide desired. Infection of cells with a viral vector has the advantage that a large proportion of the targeted cells can receive the nucleic acid. Additionally, molecules encoded within the viral vector, e.g., by a cDNA contained in the viral vector, are expressed efficiently in cells which have taken up viral vector nucleic acid.
- Retrovirus vectors and adeno-associated virus vectors are generally understood to be the recombinant gene delivery system of choice for the transfer of exogenous genes in vivo, particularly into humans. These vectors provide efficient delivery of genes into cells, and the transferred nucleic acids are stably integrated into the chromosomal DNA of the host. A major prerequisite for the use of retroviruses is to ensure the safety of their use, particularly with regard to the possibility of the spread of wild-type virus in the cell population. The development of specialized cell lines (termed “packaging cells”) which produce only replication-defective retroviruses has increased the utility of retroviruses for gene therapy, and defective retroviruses are well characterized for use in gene transfer for gene therapy purposes (for a review see Miller, A. D. (1990)Blood 76:271). Thus, recombinant retrovirus can be constructed in which part of the retroviral coding sequence (gag, pol, env) has been replaced by nucleic acid encoding a hedgehog polypeptide and renders the retrovirus replication defective. The replication defective retrovirus is then packaged into virions which can be used to infect a target cell through the use of a helper virus by standard techniques. Protocols for producing recombinant retroviruses and for infecting cells in vitro or in vivo with such viruses can be found in Current Protocols in Molecular Biology, Ausubel, F. M. et al. (eds.) Greene Publishing Associates, (1989), Sections 9.10-9.14 and other standard laboratory manuals. Examples of suitable retroviruses include pLJ, pZIP, pWE and pEM which are well known to those skilled in the art. Examples of suitable packaging virus lines for preparing both ecotropic and amphotropic retroviral systems include Crip, Cre, 2 and Am. Retroviruses have been used to introduce a variety of genes into many different cell types, including neuronal cells, in vitro and/or in vivo (see, for example, Eglitis, et al. (1985) Science 230:1395-1398; Danos and Mulligan (1988) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 85:6460-6464; Wilson et al. (1988) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 85:3014-3018; Armentano et al. (1990) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 87:6141-6145; Huber et al. (1991) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 88:8039-8043; Ferry et al. (1991) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 88:8377-8381; Chowdhury et al. (1991) Science 254:1802-1805; van Beusechem et al. (1992) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 89:7640-7644; Kay et al. (1992) Human Gene Therapy 3:641-647; Dai et al. (1992) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 89:10892-10895; Hwu et al. (1993) J. Immunol. 150:4104-4115; U.S. Pat. No. 4,868,116; U.S. Pat. No. 4,980,286; PCT Application WO 89/07136; PCT Application WO 89/02468; PCT Application WO 89/05345; and PCT Application WO 92/07573).
- Furthermore, it has been shown that it is possible to limit the infection spectrum of retroviruses and consequently of retroviral-based vectors, by modifying the viral packaging proteins on the surface of the viral particle (see, for example PCT publications WO93/25234 and WO94/06920). For instance, strategies for the modification of the infection spectrum of retroviral vectors include: coupling antibodies specific for cell surface antigens to the viral env protein (Roux et al. (1989)PNAS 86:9079-9083; Julan et al. (1992) J. Gen Virol 73:3251-3255; and Goud et al. (1983) Virology 163:251-254); or coupling cell surface receptor ligands to the viral env proteins (Neda et al. (1991) J Biol Chem 266:14143-14146). Coupling can be in the form of the chemical cross-linking with a protein or other variety (e.g., lactose to convert the env protein to an asialoglycoprotein), as well as by generating fusion proteins (e.g., single-chain antibody/env fusion proteins). This technique, while useful to limit or otherwise direct the infection to certain tissue types, can also be used to convert an ecotropic vector into an amphotropic vector.
- Moreover, use of retroviral gene delivery can be further enhanced by the use of tissue- or cell-specific transcriptional regulatory sequences which control expression of the hedgehog gene of the retroviral vector.
- Another viral gene delivery system useful in the present method utilizes adenovirus-derived vectors. The genome of an adenovirus can be manipulated such that it encodes and expresses a gene product of interest but is inactivated in terms of its ability to replicate in a normal lytic viral life cycle. See for example Berkner et al. (1988)BioTechniques 6:616; Rosenfeld et al. (1991) Science 252:431-434; and Rosenfeld et al. (1992) Cell 68:143-155. Suitable adenoviral vectors derived from the adenovirus
strain Ad type 5 dl324 or other strains of adenovirus (e.g., Ad2, Ad3, Ad7 etc.) are well known to those skilled in the art. Recombinant adenoviruses can be advantageous in certain circumstances in that they can be used to infect a wide variety of cell types, including neuronal cells (Rosenfeld et-al. (1992) cited supra). - Furthermore, the virus particle is relatively stable and amenable to purification and concentration, and as above, can be modified so as to affect the spectrum of infectivity. Additionally, introduced adenoviral DNA (and foreign DNA contained therein) is not integrated into the genome of a host cell but remains episomal, thereby avoiding potential problems that can occur as a result of insertional mutagenesis in situations where introduced DNA becomes integrated into the host genome (e.g., retroviral DNA). Moreover, the carrying capacity of the adenoviral genome for foreign DNA is large (up to 8 kilobases) relative to other gene delivery vectors (Berkner et al. cited supra; Haj-Ahmand and Graham (1986)J. Virol. 57:267). Most replication-defective adenoviral vectors currently in use and therefore favored by the present invention are deleted for all or parts of the viral E1 and E3 genes but retain as much as 80% of the adenoviral genetic material (see, e.g., Jones et al. (1979) Cell 16:683; Berkner et al., supra; and Graham et al. in Methods in Molecular Biology, E. J. Murray, Ed. (Humana, Clifton, N.J., 1991) vol. 7. pp. 109-127). Expression of the inserted hedgehog gene can be under control of, for example, the EIA promoter, the major late promoter (MLP) and associated leader sequences, the E3 promoter, or exogenously added promoter sequences.
- In addition to viral transfer methods, such as those illustrated above, non-viral methods can also be employed to cause expression of a hedgehog polypeptide in the tissue of an animal. Most nonviral methods of gene transfer rely on normal mechanisms used by mammalian cells for the uptake and intracellular transport of macromolecules. In preferred embodiments, non-viral gene delivery systems of the present invention rely on endocytic pathways for the uptake of the hedgehog polypeptide gene by the targeted cell. Exemplary gene delivery systems of this type include liposomal derived systems, poly-lysine conjugates, and artificial viral envelopes.
- In clinical settings, the gene delivery systems for the therapeutic hedgehog gene can be introduced into a patient by any of a number of methods, each of which is familiar in the art. For instance, a pharmaceutical preparation of the gene delivery system can be introduced systemically, e.g., by intravenous injection, and specific transduction of the protein in the target cells occurs predominantly from specificity of transfection provided by the gene delivery vehicle, cell-type or tissue-type expression due to the transcriptional regulatory sequences controlling expression of the receptor gene, or a combination thereof. In other embodiments, initial delivery of the recombinant gene is more limited with introduction into the animal being quite localized. For example, the gene delivery vehicle can be introduced by catheter (see U.S. Pat. No. 5,328,470) or by stereotactic injection (e.g., Chen et al. (1994)PNAS 91: 3054-3057). A hedgehog expression construct can be delivered in a gene therapy construct to dermal cells by, e.g., electroporation using techniques described, for example, by Dev et al. ((1994) Cancer Treat Rev 20:105-115).
- The pharmaceutical preparation of the gene therapy construct can consist essentially of the gene delivery system in an acceptable diluent, or can comprise a slow release matrix in which the gene delivery vehicle is imbedded. Alternatively, where the complete gene delivery system can be produced intact from recombinant cells, e.g., retroviral vectors, the pharmaceutical preparation can comprise one or more cells which produce the gene delivery system.
- In yet another embodiment, the hedgehog or ptc therapeutic can be a “gene activation” construct which, by homologous recombination with a genomic DNA, alters the transcriptional regulatory sequences of an endogenous gene. For instance, the gene activation construct can replace the endogenous promoter of a hedgehog gene with a heterologous promoter, e.g., one which causes constitutive expression of the hedgehog gene or which causes inducible expression of the gene under conditions different from the normal expression pattern of the gene. Other genes in the patched signaling pathway can be similarly targeted. A variety of different formats for the gene activation constructs are available. See, for example, the Transkaryotic Therapies, Inc PCT publications WO93/09222, WO95/31560, WO96/29411, WO95/31560 and WO94/12650.
- In preferred embodiments, the nucleotide sequence used as the gene activation construct can be comprised of (1) DNA from some portion of the endogenous hedgehog gene (exon sequence, intron sequence, promoter sequences, etc.) which direct recombination and (2) heterologous transcriptional regulatory sequence(s) which is to be operably linked to the coding sequence for the genomic hedgehog gene upon recombination of the gene activation construct. For use in generating cultures of hedgehog producing cells, the construct may further include a reporter gene to detect the presence of the knockout construct in the cell.
- The gene activation construct is inserted into a cell, and integrates with the genomic DNA of the cell in such a position so as to provide the heterologous regulatory sequences in operative association with the native hedgehog gene. Such insertion occurs by homologous recombination, i.e., recombination regions of the activation construct that are homologous to the endogenous hedgehog gene sequence hybridize to the genomic DNA and recombine with the genomic sequences so that the construct is incorporated into the corresponding position of the genomic DNA.
- The terms “recombination region” or “targeting sequence” refer to a segment (i.e., a portion) of a gene activation construct having a sequence that is substantially identical to or substantially complementary to a genomic gene sequence, e.g., including 5′ flanking sequences of the genomic gene, and can facilitate homologous recombination between the genomic sequence and the targeting transgene construct.
- As used herein, the term “replacement region” refers to a portion of an activation construct which becomes integrated into an endogenous chromosomal location following homologous recombination between a recombination region and a genomic sequence.
- The heterologous regulatory sequences, e.g., which are provided in the replacement region, can include one or more of a variety elements, including: promoters (such as constitutive or inducible promoters), enhancers, negative regulatory elements, locus control regions, transcription factor binding sites, or combinations thereof. Promoters/enhancers which may be used to control the expression of the targeted gene in vivo include, but are not limited to, the cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter/enhancer (Karasuyama et al., 1989,J. Exp. Med, 169:13), the human β-actin promoter (Gunning et al. (1987) PNAS 84:4831-4835), the glucocorticoid-inducible promoter present in the mouse mammary tumor virus long terminal repeat (MMTV LTR) (Klessig et al. (1984) Mol. Cell Biol. 4:1354-1362), the long terminal repeat sequences of Moloney murine leukemia virus (MuLV LTR) (Weiss et al. (1985) RNA Tumor Viruses, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, Cold Spring Harbor, N.Y.), the SV40 early or late region promoter (Bemoist et al. (1981) Nature 290:304-310; Templeton et al. (1984) Mol. Cell Biol., 4:817; and Sprague et al. (1983) J. Virol., 45:773), the promoter contained in the 3′ long terminal repeat of Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) (Yamamoto et al., 1980, Cell, 22:787-797), the herpes simplex virus (HSV) thymidine kinase promoter/enhancer (Wagner et al. (1981) PNAS 82:3567-71), and the herpes simplex virus LAT promoter (Wolfe et al. (1992) Nature Genetics, 1:379-384).
- In an exemplary embodiment, portions of the 5′ flanking region of the human Shh gene are amplified using primers which add restriction sites, to generate the following
fragments 5′-gcgcgcttcgaaGCGAGGCAGCCAGCGAGGGAGAGAGCGAGCGGGCG AGCCGGAGCGAGGAAatcgatgcgcgc (primer 1) 5′-gcgcgcagatctGGGAAAGCGCAAGAGAGAGCGCACACGCACACACC CGCCGCGCGCACTCGggatccgcgcgc (primer 2) - As illustrated, primer 1 includes a 5′ non-coding region of the human Shh gene and is flanked by an AsuII and ClaI restriction sites. Primer 2 includes a portion of the 5′ non-coding region immediately 3′ to that present in primer 1. The hedgehog gene sequence is flanked by XhoII and BamHI restriction sites. The purified amplimers are cut with each of the enzymes as appropriate.
- The vector pCDNA1.1 (Invitrogen) includes a CMV promoter. The plasmid is cut with with AsuII, which cleaves just 3′ to the CMV promoter sequence. The AsuII/ClaI fragment of primer 1 is ligated to the AsuII cleavage site of the pcDNA vector. The ClaI/AsuII ligation destroys the AsuII site at the 3′ end of a properly inserted primer 1.
- The vector is then cut with BamHI, and an XhoII/BamHI fragment of primer 2 is ligated to the BamHI cleavage site. As above, the BamHI/XhoII ligation destroys the BamHI site at the 5′ end of a properly inserted primer 2.
- Individual colonies are selected, cut with AsuIl and BamHI, and the size of the AsuII/BamHI fragment determined. Colonies in which both the primer 1 and primer 2 sequences are correctly inserted are further amplified, and cut with AsuIl and BamHI to produce the gene activation construct:

Other heterologous promoters (or other transcriptional regulatory sequences) can be inserted in a genomic hedgehog gene by a similar method.
- In still other embodiments, the replacement region merely deletes a negative transcriptional control element of the native gene, e.g., to activate expression, or ablates a positive control element, e.g., to inhibit expression of the targeted gene.
- V. Exemplary ptc Therapeutic Compounds.
- In another embodiment, the subject method is carried out using a ptc therapeutic composition. Such compositions can be generated with, for example, compounds which bind to patched and alter its signal transduction activity, compounds which alter the binding and/or enzymatic activity of a protein (e.g., intracellular) involved in patched signal pathway, and compounds which alter the level of expression of a hedgehog protein, a patched protein or a protein involved in the intracellular signal transduction pathway of patched.
- The availability of purified and recombinant hedgehog polypeptides facilitates the generation of assay systems which can be used to screen for drugs, such as small organic molecules, which are either agonists or antagonists of the normal cellular function of a hedgehog and/or patched protein, particularly in their role in the pathogenesis of neuronal cell death. In one embodiment, the assay evaluates the ability of a compound to modulate binding between a hedgehog polypeptide and a hedgehog receptor such as patched. In other embodiments, the assay merely scores for the ability of a test compound to alter the signal transduction activity of the patched protein. In this manner, a variety of hedgehog and/or ptc therapeutics, which will include ones with neuroprotective activity, can be identified. A variety of assay formats will suffice and, in light of the present disclosure, will be comprehended by a skilled artisan.
- In many drug screening programs which test libraries of compounds and natural extracts, high throughput assays are desirable in order to maximize the number of compounds surveyed in a given period of time. Assays which are performed in cell-free systems, such as may be derived with purified or semi-purified proteins, are often preferred as “primary” screens in that they can be generated to permit rapid development and relatively easy detection of an alteration in a molecular target which is mediated by a test compound. Moreover, the effects of cellular toxicity and/or bioavailability of the test compound can be generally ignored in the in vitro system, the assay instead being focused primarily on the effect of the drug on the molecular target as may be manifest in an alteration of binding affinity with receptor proteins.
- Accordingly, in an exemplary screening assay for ptc therapeutics, the compound of interest is contacted with a mixture including a hedgehog receptor protein (e.g., a cell expressing the patched receptor) and a hedgehog protein under conditions in which it is ordinarily capable of binding the hedgehog protein. To the mixture is then added a composition containing a test compound. Detection and quantification of receptor/hedgehog complexes provides a means for determining the test compound's efficacy at inhibiting (or potentiating) complex formation between the receptor protein and the hedgehog polypeptide. Moreover, a control assay can also be performed to provide a baseline for comparison. In the control assay, isolated and purified hedgehog polypeptide is added to the receptor protein, and the formation of receptor/hedgehog complex is quantitated in the absence of the test compound.
- Agonist and antagonists of neuroprotection can be distinguished, and the efficacy of the compound can be assessed, by subsequent testing with neuronal cells.
- In an illustrative embodiment, the polypeptide utilized as a hedgehog receptor can be generated from the patched protein. Accordingly, an exemplary screening assay includes all or a suitable portion of the patched protein which can be obtained from, for example, the human patched gene (GenBank U43148) or other vertebrate sources (see GenBank Accession numbers U40074 for chicken patched and U46155 for mouse patched), as well as from drosophila (GenBank Accession number M28999) or other invertebrate sources. The patched protein can be provided in the screening assay as a whole protein (preferably expressed on the surface of a cell), or alternatively as a fragment of the full length protein which binds to hedgehog polypeptides, e.g., as one or both of the substantial extracellular domains (e.g., corresponding to residues Asnl20-Ser438 and/or Arg770-Trp1027 of the human patched protein). For instance, the patched protein can be provided in soluble form, as for example a preparation of one of the extracellular domains, or a preparation of both of the extracellular domains which are covalently connected by an unstructured linker (see, for example, Huston et al. (1988) PNAS 85:4879; and U.S. Pat. No. 5,091,513). In other embodiments, the protein can be provided as part of a liposomal preparation or expressed on the surface of a cell. The patched protein can derived from a recombinant gene, e.g., being ectopically expressed in a heterologous cell. For instance, the protein can be expressed on oocytes, mammalian cells (e.g., COS, CHO, 3T3 or the like), or yeast cells by standard recombinant DNA techniques. These recombinant cells can be used for receptor binding, signal transduction or gene expression assays. Marigo et al. (1996)Development 122:1225-1233 illustrates a binding assay of human hedgehog to chick patched protein ectopically expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes. The assay system of Marigo et al. can be adapted to the present drug screening assays. As illustrated in that reference, Shh binds to the patched protein in a selective, saturable, dose-dependent manner, thus demonstrating that patched is a receptor for Shh.
- Complex formation between the hedgehog polypeptide and a hedgehog receptor may be detected by a variety of techniques. For instance, modulation of the formation of complexes can be quantitated using, for example, detectably labelled proteins such as radiolabelled, fluorescently labelled, or enzymatically labelled hedgehog polypeptides, by immunoassay, or by chromatographic detection.
- Typically, for cell-free assays, it will be desirable to immobilize either the hedgehog receptor or the hedgehog polypeptide to facilitate separation of receptor/hedgehog complexes from uncomplexed forms of one of the proteins, as well as to accommodate automation of the assay. In one embodiment, a fusion protein can be provided which adds a domain that allows the protein to be bound to a matrix. For example, glutathione-S-transferase/receptor (GST/receptor) fusion proteins can be adsorbed onto glutathione sepharose beads (Sigma Chemical, St. Louis, Mo.) or glutathione derivatized microtitre plates, which are then combined with the hedgehog polypeptide, e.g., an35S-labeled hedgehog polypeptide, and the test compound and incubated under conditions conducive to complex formation, e.g., at physiological conditions for salt and pH, though slightly more stringent conditions may be desired. Following incubation, the beads are washed to remove any unbound hedgehog polypeptide, and the matrix bead-bound radiolabel determined directly (e.g., beads placed in scintillant), or in the supernatant after the receptor/hedgehog complexes are dissociated. Alternatively, the complexes can be dissociated from the bead, separated by SDS-PAGE gel, and the level of hedgehog polypeptide found in the bead fraction quantitated from the gel using standard electrophoretic techniques.
- Other techniques for immobilizing proteins on matrices are also available for use in the subject assay. For instance, soluble portions of the hedgehog receptor protein can be immobilized utilizing conjugation of biotin and stireptavidin. For instance, biotinylated receptor molecules can be prepared from biotin-NHS (N-hydroxy-succinimide) using techniques well known in the art (e.g., biotinylation kit, Pierce Chemicals, Rockford, Ill.), and immobilized in the wells of streptavidin-coated 96 well plates (Pierce Chemical). Alternatively, antibodies reactive with the hedgehog receptor but which do not interfere with hedgehog binding can be derivatized to the wells of the plate, and the receptor trapped in the wells by antibody conjugation. As above, preparations of a hedgehog polypeptide and a test compound are incubated in the receptor-presenting wells of the plate, and the amount of receptor/hedgehog complex trapped in the well can be quantitated. Exemplary methods for detecting such complexes, in addition to those described above for the GST-immobilized complexes, include immunodetection of complexes using antibodies reactive with the hedgehog polypeptide, or which are reactive with the receptor protein and compete for binding with the hedgehog polypeptide; as well as enzyme-linked assays which rely on detecting an enzymatic activity associated with the hedgehog polypeptide. In the instance of the latter, the enzyme can be chemically conjugated or provided as a fusion protein with the hedgehog polypeptide. To illustrate, the hedgehog polypeptide can be chemically cross-linked or genetically fused with alkaline phosphatase, and the amount of hedgehog polypeptide trapped in the complex can be assessed with a chromogenic substrate of the enzyme, e.g., paranitrophenylphosphate. Likewise, a fusion protein comprising the hedgehog polypeptide and glutathione-S-transferase can be provided, and complex formation quantitated by detecting the GST activity using 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (Habig et al (1974)J Biol Chem 249:7130).
- For processes which rely on immunodetection for quantitating one of the proteins trapped in the complex, antibodies against the protein, such as the anti-hedgehog antibodies described herein, can be used. Alternatively, the protein to be detected in the complex can be “epitope tagged” in the form of a fusion protein which includes, in addition to the hedgehog polypeptide or hedgehog receptor sequence, a second polypeptide for which antibodies are readily available (e.g., from commercial sources). For instance, the GST fusion proteins described above can also be used for quantification of binding using antibodies against the GST moiety. Other useful epitope tags include myc-epitopes (e.g., see Ellison et al. (1991)J Biol Chem 266:21150-21157) which includes a 10-residue sequence from c-myc, as well as the pFLAG system (International Biotechnologies, Inc.) or the pEZZ-protein A system (Pharamacia, N.J.).
- Where the desired portion of the hedgehog receptor (or other hedgehog binding molecule) cannot be provided in soluble form, liposomal vesicles can be used to provide manipulatable and isolatable sources of the receptor. For example, both authentic and recombinant forms of the patched protein can be reconstituted in artificial lipid vesicles (e.g., phosphatidylcholine liposomes) or in cell membrane-derived vesicles (see, for example, Bear et al. (1992)Cell 68:809-818; Newton et al. (1983) Biochemistry 22:6110-6117; and Reber et al. (1987) J Biol Chem 262:11369-11374).
- In addition to cell-free assays, such as described above, the readily available source of hedgehog proteins provided by the art also facilitates the generation of cell-based assays for identifying small molecule agonists of the neuroprotective activity of wild-type hedgehog proteins. Analogous to the cell-based assays described above for screening combinatorial libraries, neuronal cells which are sensitive to hedgehog-dependent protection against ischemic damage can be contacted with a hedgehog protein and a test agent of interest, with the assay scoring for anything from simple binding to the cell to modulation in hedgehog inductive responses by the target cell in the presence and absence of the test agent. As with the cell-free assays, agents which produce a statistically significant change in hedgehog activities (either inhibition or potentiation) can be identified.
- In addition to characterizing cells that naturally express the patched protein, cells which have been genetically engineered to ectopically express patched can be utilized for drug screening assays. As an example, cells which either express low levels or lack expression of the patched protein, e.g.,Xenopus laevis oocytes, COS cells or yeast cells, can be genetically modified using standard techniques to ectopically express the patched protein. (see Marigo et al., supra).
- The resulting recombinant cells, e.g., which express a functional patched receptor, can be utilized in receptor binding assays to identify agonist or anatagonists of hedgehog binding. Binding assays can be performed using whole cells. Furthermore, the recombinant cells of the present invention can be engineered to include other heterologous genes encoding proteins involved in hedgehog-dependent signal pathways. For example, the gene products of one or more of smoothened, costal-2 and/orfused can be co-expressed with patched in the reagent cell, with assays being sensitive to the functional reconstituion of the hedgehog signal transduction cascade.
- Alternatively, liposomal preparations using reconstituted patched protein can be utilized. Patched protein purified from detergent extracts from both authentic and recombinant origins can be reconstituted in artificial lipid vesicles (e.g., phosphatidylcholine liposomes) or in cell membrane-derived vesicles (see, for example; Bear et al. (1992)Cell 68:809-818; Newton et al. (1983) Biochemistry 22:6110-6117; and Reber et al. (1987) J Biol Chem 262:11369-11374). The lamellar structure and size of the resulting liposomes can be characterized using electron microscopy. External orientation of the patched protein in the reconstituted membranes can be demonstrated, for example, by immunoelectron microscopy. The hedgehog protein binding activity of liposomes containing patched and liposomes without the protein in the presence of candidate agents can be compared in order to identify potential modulators of the hedgehog-patched interaction.
- The hedgehog protein used in these cell-based assays can be provided as a purified source (natural or recombinant in origin), or in the form of cells/tissue which express the protein and which are co-cultured with the target cells. As in the cell-free assays, where simple binding (rather than induction) is the hedgehog activity scored for in the assay, the protein can be labelled by any of the above-mentioned techniques, e.g., fluorescently, enzymatically or radioactively, or detected by immunoassay.
- In addition to binding studies, functional assays can be used to identified modulators, i.e., agonists of hedgehog or patched activities. By detecting changes in intracellular signals, such as alterations in second messengers or gene expression in patched-expressing cells contacted with a test agent, candidate antagonists to patched signaling can be identified (e.g., having a hedgehog-like activity).
- A number of gene products have been implicated in patched-mediated signal transduction, including patched, the transcription factor cubitus interruptus (ci), the serine/threonine kinase fused (fu) and the gene products of costal-2, smoothened and suppressor of fused.
- The interaction of a hedgehog protein with patched sets in motion a cascade involving the activation and inhibition of downstream effectors, the ultimate consequence of which is, in some instances, a detectable change in the transcription or translation of a gene. Potential transcriptional targets of patched signaling are the patched gene itself (Hidalgo and Ingham, 1990Development 110, 291-301; Marigo et al., 1996 ) and the vertebrate homologs of the drosophila cubitus interruptus gene, the GLI genes (Hui et al. (1994) Dev Biol 162:402-413). Patched gene expression has been shown to be induced in cells of the limb bud and the neural plate that are responsive to Shh. (Marigo et al. (1996) PNAS, in press; Marigo et al. (1996) Development 122:1225-1233). The GLI genes encode putative transcription factors having zinc finger DNA binding domains (Orenic et al. (1990) Genes & Dev 4:1053-1067; Kinzler et al. (1990) Mol Cell Biol 10:634-642). Transcription of the GLI gene has been reported to be upregulated in response to hedgehog in limb buds, while transcription of the GLI3 gene is downregulated in response to hedgehog induction (Marigo et al. (1996) Development 122:1225-1233). By selecting transcriptional regulatory sequences from such target genes, e.g., from patched or GLI genes, that are responsible for the up- or down-regulation of these genes in response to patched signalling, and operatively linking such promoters to a reporter gene, one can derive a transcription based assay which is sensitive to the ability of a specific test compound to modify patched signalling pathways. Expression of the reporter gene, thus, provides a valuable screening tool for the development of compounds that act as antagonists of ptc, e.g., which may be useful as neuroprotective agents.
- Reporter gene based assays of this invention measure the end stage of the above described cascade of events, e.g., transcriptional modulation. Accordingly, in practicing one embodiment of the assay, a reporter gene construct is inserted into the reagent cell in order to generate a detection signal dependent on ptc signaling. To identify potential regulatory elements responsive to ptc signaling present in the transcriptional regulatory sequence of a target gene, nested deletions of genomic clones of the target gene can be constructed using standard techniques. See, for example,Current Protocols in Molecular Biology, Ausubel, F. M. et al. (eds.) Greene Publishing Associates, (1989); U.S. Pat. No. 5,266,488; Sato et al. (1995) J Biol Chem 270:10314-10322; and Kube et al. (1995) Cytokine 7:1-7. A nested set of DNA fragments from the gene's 5′-flanking region are placed upstream of a reporter gene, such as the luciferase gene, and assayed for their ability to direct reporter gene expression in patched expressing cells. Host cells transiently transfected with reporter gene constructs can be scored for the induction of expression of the reporter gene in the presence and absence of hedgehog to determine regulatory sequences which are responsive to patched-dependent signalling.
- In practicing one embodiment of the assay, a reporter gene construct is inserted into the reagent cell in order to generate a detection signal dependent on second messengers generated by induction with hedgehog protein. Typically, the reporter gene construct will include a reporter gene in operative linkage with one or more transcriptional regulatory elements responsive to the hedgehog activity, with the level of expression of the reporter gene providing the hedgehog-dependent detection signal. The amount of transcription from the reporter gene may be measured using any method known to those of skill in the art to be suitable. For example, mRNA expression from the reporter gene may be detected using RNAse protection or RNA-based PCR, or the protein product of the reporter gene may be identified by a characteristic stain or an intrinsic activity. The amount of expression from the reporter gene is then compared to the amount of expression in either the same cell in the absence of the test compound (or hedgehog) or it may be compared with the amount of transcription in a substantially identical cell that lacks the target receptor protein. Any statistically or otherwise significant difference in the amount of transcription indicates that the test compound has in some manner altered the signal transduction of the patched protein, e.g., the test compound is a potential ptc therapeutic.
- As described in firther detail below, in preferred embodiments the gene product of the reporter is detected by an intrinsic activity associated with that product. For instance, the reporter gene may encode a gene product that, by enzymatic activity, gives rise to a detection signal based on color, fluorescence, or luminescence. In other preferred embodiments, the reporter or marker gene provides a selective growth advantage, e.g., the reporter gene may enhance cell viability, relieve a cell nutritional requirement, and/or provide resistance to a drug.
- Preferred reporter genes are those that are readily detectable. The reporter gene may also be included in the construct in the form of a fusion gene with a gene that includes desired transcriptional regulatory sequences or exhibits other desirable properties. Examples of reporter genes include, but are not limited to CAT (chloramphenicol acetyl transferase) (Alton and Vapnek (1979), Nature 282: 864-869) luciferase, and other enzyme detection systems, such as beta-galactosidase; firefly luciferase (deWet et al. (1987), Mol. Cell. Biol. 7:725-737); bacterial luciferase (Engebrecht and Silverman (1984), PNAS 1: 4154-4158; Baldwin et al. (1984), Biochemistry 23: 3663-3667); alkaline phosphatase (Toh et al. (1989) Eur. J. Biochem. 182: 231-238, Hall et al. (1983) J. Mol. Appl. Gen. 2: 101), human placental secreted alkaline phosphatase (Cullen and Malim (1992) Methods in Enzymol. 216:362-368).
- Transcriptional control elements which may be included in a reporter gene construct include, but are not limited to, promoters, enhancers, and repressor and activator binding sites. Suitable transcriptional regulatory elements may be derived from the transcriptional regulatory regions of genes whose expression is induced after modulation of a patched signal transduction pathway. The characteristics of preferred genes from which the transcriptional control elements are derived include, but are not limited to, low or undetectable expression in quiescent cells, rapid induction at the transcriptional level within minutes of extracellular stimulation, induction that is transient and independent of new protein synthesis, subsequent shut-off of transcription requires new protein synthesis, and mRNAs transcribed from these genes have a short half-life. It is not necessary for all of these properties to be present.
- In yet other embodiments, second messenger generation can be measured directly in the detection step, such as mobilization of intracellular calcium, phospholipid metabolism or adenylate cyclase activity are quantitated, for instance, the products of phospholipid hydrolysis IP3, DAG or cAMP could be measured For example, recent studies have implicated protein kinase A (PKA) as a possible component of hedgehog/patched signaling (Hammerschmidt et al. (1996) Genes & Dev 10:647). High PKA activity has been shown to antagonize hedgehog signaling in these systems. Conversely, inhibitors of PKA will mimic and/or potentiate the action of hedgehog. Although it is unclear whether PKA acts directly downstream or in parallel with hedgehog signaling, it is possible that hedgehog signalling occurs via inhibition of PKA activity. Thus, detection of PKA activity provides a potential readout for the instant assays. In certain embodiments, a preferred ptc therapeutic inhibits PKA with a Ki less than 10 nM, preferably less than 1 nM, even more preferably less than 0.1 InM.

- The hedgehog pathway can be agonized by antagonizing the cAMP pathway, e.g., by using an agonist of of cAMP phosphodiesterase, or by using an antagonist of adenylate cyclase, cAMP or protein kinase A (PKA). Compounds which may reduce the levels or activity of cAMP include prostaglandylinositol cyclic phosphate (cyclic PIP), endothelins (ET)-1 and -3, norepinepurine, K252a, dideoxyadenosine, dynorphins, melatonin, pertussis toxin, staurosporine, Gi agonists, MDL 12330A, SQ 22536, GDPssS and clonidine, beta-blockers, and ligands of G-protein coupled receptors. Additional compounds are disclosed in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,891,875, 5,260,210, and 5,795,756.
- Exemplary peptidyl inhibitors of PKA activity include the PKA Heat Stable Inhibitor (isoform α; see, for example, Calbiochem Cat. No. 539488, and Wen et al. (1995)J Biol Chem 270:2041).
- In certain embodiments, a compound which is an agonist or antagonist of PKA is chosen to be selective for PKA over other protein kinases, such as PKC, e.g., the compound modulates the activity of PKA at least an order of magnitude more strongly than it modulates the activity of another protein kinase, preferably at least two orders of magnitude more strongly, even more preferably at least three orders of magnitude more strongly. Thus, for example, a preferred inhibitor of PKA may inhibit PKA activity with a Ki at least an order of magnitude lower than its Ki for inhibition of PKC, preferably at least two orders of magnitude lower, even more preferably at least three orders of magnitude lower. In certain embodiments, a ptc therapeutic inhibits PKC with a Ki greater than 1 μM, greater than 100 nM, preferably greater than 10 nM.
- Certain hedgehog receptors may stimulate the activity of phospholipases. Inositol lipids can be extracted and analyzed using standard lipid extraction techniques. Water soluble derivatives of all three inositol lipids (IP1, IP2, IP3) can also be quantitated using radiolabelling techniques or HPLC.
- The mobilization of intracellular calcium or the influx of calcium from outside the cell may be a response to hedgehog stimulation or lack there of. Calcium flux in the reagent cell can be measured using standard techniques. The choice of the appropriate calcium indicator, fluorescent, bioluminescent, metallochromic, or Ca++-sensitive microelectrodes depends on the cell type and the magnitude and time constant of the event under study (Borle (1990) Environ Health Perspect 84:45-56). As an exemplary method of Ca++ detection, cells could be loaded with the Ca++ sensitive fluorescent dye fura-2 or indo-1, using standard methods, and any change in Ca++ measured using a fluorometer.
- In certain embodiments of the assay, it may be desirable to screen for changes in cellular phosphorylation. As an example, the drosophila gene fused (fu) which encodes a serine/threonine kinase has been identified as a potential downstream target in hedgehog signaling. (Preat et al., 1990Nature 347, 87-89; Therond et al. 1993, Mech. Dev. 44. 65-80). The ability of compounds to modulate serine/threonine kinase activation could be screened using colony immunoblotting (Lyons and Nelson (1984) Proc. Natl. Acad Sci. USA 81:7426-7430) using antibodies against phosphorylated serine or threonine residues. Reagents for performing such assays are commercially available, for example, phosphoserine and phosphothreonine specific antibodies which measure increases in phosphorylation of those residues can be purchased from commercial sources.
- In yet another embodiment, the ptc therapeutic is an antisense molecule which inhibits expression of a protein involved in a patched-mediated signal transduction pathway. To illustrate, by inhibiting the expression of a protein involved in patched signals, such as fused, costail-2, smoothened and/or Gli genes, or patched itself, the ability of the patched signal pathway(s) to alter the ability of a cell to withstand ischemic conditions can be altered, e.g., potentiated or repressed.
- As used herein, “antisense” therapy refers to administration or in situ generation of oligonucleotide probes or their derivatives which specifically hybridize (e.g., bind) under cellular conditions with cellular mRNA and/or genomic DNA encoding, a hedgehog protein, patched, or a protein involved in patched-mediated signal transduction. The hybridization should inhibit expression of that protein, e.g., by inhibiting transcription and/or translation. The binding may be by conventional base pair complementarity, or, for example, in the case of binding to DNA duplexes, through specific interactions in the major groove of the double helix. In general, “antisense” therapy refers to the range of techniques generally employed in the art, and includes any therapy which relies on specific binding to oligonucleotide sequences.
- An antisense construct of the present invention can be delivered, for example, as an expression plasmid which, when transcribed in the cell, produces RNA which is complementary to at least a unique portion of the target cellular mRNA. Alternatively, the antisense construct is an oligonucleotide probe which is generated ex vivo and which, when introduced into the cell causes inhibition of expression by hybridizing with the mRNA and/or genomic sequences of a target gene. Such oligonucleotide probes are preferably modified oligonucleotide which are resistant to endogenous nucleases, e.g., exonucleases and/or endonucleases, and is therefore stable in vivo. Exemplary nucleic acid molecules for use as antisense oligonucleotides are phosphbramidate, phosphothioate and methylphosphonate analogs of DNA (see also U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,176,996; 5,264,564; and 5,256,775). Additionally, general approaches to constructing oligomers useful in antisense therapy have been reviewed, for example, by Van der Krol et al. (1988)Biotechniques 6:958-976; and Stein et al. (1988) Cancer Res 48:2659-2668.
- Several considerations should be taken into account when constructing antisense oligonucleotides for the use in the methods of the invention: (1) oligos should have a GC content of 50% or more; (2) avoid sequences with stretches of 3 or more G's; and (3) oligonucleotides should not be longer than 25-26 mers. When testing an antisense oligonucleotide, a mismatched control can be constructed. The controls can be generated by reversing the sequence order of the corresponding antisense oligonucleotide in order to conserve the same ratio of bases.
- In an illustrative embodiment, the ptc therapeutic can be an antisense construct for inhibiting the expression of patched, e.g., to mimic the inhibition of patched by hedgehog. Exemplary antisense constructs include:

- The source of the hedgehog and ptc therapeutics to be formulated will depend on the particular form of the agent. Small organic molecules and peptidyl fragments can be chemically synthesized and provided in a pure form suitable for pharmaceutical/cosmetic usage. Products of natural extracts can be purified according to techniques known in the art. For example, the Cox et al. U.S. Pat. No. 5,286,654 describes a method for purifying naturally occurring forms of a secreted protein and can be adapted for purification of hedgehog polypeptides. Recombinant sources of hedgehog polypeptides are also available. For example, the gene encoding hedgehog polypeptides, are known, inter alia, from PCT publications WO 95/18856 and WO 96/17924.
- Those of skill in treating neural tissues can determine the effective amount of an hedgehog or ptc therapeutic to be formulated in a pharmaceutical or cosmetic preparation.
- The hedgehog or ptc therapeutic formulations used in the method of the invention are most preferably applied in the form of appropriate compositions. As appropriate compositions there may be cited all compositions usually employed for systemically or locally (such as intrathecal) administering drugs. The pharmaceutically acceptable carrier should be substantially inert, so as not to act with the active component. Suitable inert carriers include water, alcohol polyethylene glycol, mineral oil or petroleum gel, propylene glycol and the like.
- To prepare the pharmaceutical compositions of this invention, an effective amount of the particular hedgehog or ptc therapeutic as the active ingredient is combined in intimate admixture with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, which carrier may take a wide variety of forms depending on the form of preparation desired for administration. These pharmaceutical compositions are desirable in unitary dosage form suitable, particularly, for administration orally, rectally, percutaneously, or by parenteral injection. For example, in preparing the compositions in oral dosage form, any of the usual pharmaceutical media may be employed such as, for example, water, glycols, oils, alcohols and the like in the case of oral liquid preparations such as suspensions, syrups, elixirs and solutions; or solid carriers such as starches, sugars, kaolin, lubricants, binders, disintegrating agents and the like in the case of powders, pills, capsules, and tablets. Because of their ease in administration, tablets and capsules represents the most advantageous oral dosage unit form, in which case solid pharmaceutical carriers are obviously employed. For parenteral compositions, the carrier will usually comprise sterile water, at least in large part, though other ingredients, for example, to aid solubility, may be included. Injectable solutions, for example, may be prepared in which the carrier comprises saline solution, glucose solution or a mixture of saline and glucose solution. Injectable suspensions may also be prepared in which case appropriate liquid carriers, suspending agents and the like may be employed. Also included are solid form preparations which are intended to be converted, shortly before use, to liquid form preparations. In the compositions suitable for percutaneous administration, the carrier optionally comprises a penetration enhancing agent and/or a suitable wetting agent, optionally combined with suitable additives of any nature in minor proportions, which additives do not introduce a significant deleterious effect on the skin.
- It is especially advantageous to formulate the subject compositions in dosage unit form for ease of administration and uniformity of dosage. Dosage unit form as used in the specification and claims herein refers to physically discrete units suitable as unitary dosages, each unit containing a predetermined quantity of active ingredient calculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect in association with the required pharmaceutical carrier. Examples of such dosage unit forms are tablets (including scored or coated tablets), capsules, pills, powders packets, wafers, injectable solutions or suspensions, teaspoonfuls, tablespoonfuls and the like, and segregated multiples thereof.
- The pharmaceutical preparations of the present invention can be used, as stated above, for the many applications which can be considered cosmetic uses. Cosmetic compositions known in the art, preferably hypoallergic and pH controlled are especially preferred, and include toilet waters, packs, lotions, skin milks or milky lotions. The preparations contain, besides the hedgehog or ptc therapeutic, components usually employed in such preparations. Examples of such components are oils, fats, waxes, surfactants, humectants, thickening agents, antioxidants, viscosity stabilizers, chelating agents, buffers, preservatives, perfumes, dyestuffs, lower alkanols, and the like. If desired, further ingredients may be incorporated in the compositions, e.g., antiinflammatory agents, antibacterials, antifungals, disinfectants, vitamins, sunscreens, antibiotics, or other anti-acne agents.
- Examples of oils comprise fats and oils such as olive oil and hydrogenated oils; waxes such as beeswax and lanolin; hydrocarbons such as liquid paraffin, ceresin, and squalane; fatty acids such as stearic acid and oleic acid; alcohols such as cetyl alcohol, stearyl alcohol, lanolin alcohol, and hexadecanol; and esters such as isopropyl myristate, isopropyl palmitate and butyl stearate. As examples of surfactants there may be cited anionic surfactants such as sodium stearate, sodium cetylsulfate, polyoxyethylene laurylether phosphate, sodium N-acyl glutamate; cationic surfactants such as stearyldimethylbenzylammonium chloride and stearyltrimethylammonium chloride; ampholytic surfactants such as alkylaminoethylglycine hydrocloride solutions and lecithin; and nonionic surfactants such as glycerin monostearate, sorbitan monostearate, sucrose fatty acid esters, propylene glycol monostearate, polyoxyethylene oleylether, polyethylene glycol monostearate, polyoxyethylene sorbitan monopalmitate, polyoxyethylene coconut fatty acid monoethanolamide, polyoxypropylene glycol (e.g., the materials sold under the trademark “Pluronic”), polyoxyethylene castor oil, and polyoxyethylene lanolin. Examples of humectants include glycerin, 1,3-butylene glycol, and propylene glycol; examples of lower alcohols include ethanol and isopropanol; examples of thickening agents include xanthan gum, hydroxypropyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose, polyethylene glycol and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose; examples of antioxidants comprise butylated hydroxytoluene, butylated hydroxyanisole, propyl gallate, citric acid and ethoxyquin; examples of chelating agents include disodium edetate and ethanehydroxy diphosphate; examples- of buffers comprise citric acid, sodium citrate, boric acid, borax, and disodium hydrogen phosphate; and examples of preservatives are methyl parahydroxybenzoate, ethyl parahydroxybenzoate, dehydroacetic acid, salicylic acid and benzoic acid.
- For preparing ointments, creams, toilet waters, skin milks, and the like, typically from 0.01 to 10% in particular from 0.1 to 5% and more in particular from 0.2 to 2.5% of the active ingredient, e.g., of the hedgehog or ptc therapeutic, will be incorporated in the compositions. In ointments or creams, the carrier for example consists of 1 to 20%, in particular 5 to 15% of a humectant, 0.1 to 10% in particular from 0.5 to 5% of a thickener and water; or said carrier may consist of 70 to 99%, in particular 20 to 95% of a surfactant, and 0 to 20%, in particular 2.5 to 15% of a fat; or 80 to 99.9% in particular 90 to 99% of a thickener; or 5 to 15% of a surfactant, 2-15% of a humectant, 0 to 80% of an oil, very small ( <2%) amounts of preservative, coloring agent and/or perfume, and water. In a toilet water, the carrier for example consists of 2 to 10% of a lower alcohol, 0.1 to 10% or in particular 0.5 to 1% of a surfactant, 1 to 20%, in particular 3 to 7% of a humectant, 0 to 5% of a buffer, water and small amounts ( <2%) of preservative, dyestuff and/or perfume. In a skin milk, the carrier typically consists of 10-50% of oil, 1 to 10% of surfactant, 50-80% of water and 0 to 3% of preservative and/or perfume. In the aforementioned preparations, all % symbols refer to weight by weight percentage.
- Particular compositions for use in the method of the present invention are those wherein the hedgehog or ptc therapeutic is formulated in liposome-containing compositions. Liposomes are artificial vesicles formed by amphiphatic molecules such as polar lipids, for example, phosphatidyl cholines, ethanolamines and serines, sphingomyelins, cardiolipins, plasmalogens, phosphatidic acids and cerebiosides. Liposomes are formed when suitable amphiphathic molecules are allowed to swell in water or aqueous solutions to form liquid crystals usually of multilayer structure comprised of many bilayers separated from each other by aqueous material (also referred to as coarse liposomes). Another type of liposome known to be consisting of a single bilayer encapsulating aqueous material is referred to as a unilamellar vesicle. If water-soluble materials are included in the aqueous phase during the swelling of the lipids they become entrapped in the aqueous layer between the lipid bilayers.
- Water-soluble active ingredients such as, for example, various salt forms of a hedgehog polypeptide, are encapsulated in the aqueous spaces between the molecular layers. The lipid soluble active ingredient of hedgehog or ptc therapeutic, such as an organic mimetic, is predominantly incorporated into the lipid layers, although polar head groups may protude from the layer into the aqueous space. The encapsulation of:these compounds can be achieved by a number of methods. The method most commonly used involves casting a thin film of phospholipid onto the walls of a flask by evaporation from an organic solvent. When this film is dispersed in a suitable aqueous medium, multilamellar liposomes are formed. Upon suitable sonication, the coarse liposomes form smaller similarly closed vesicles.
- Water-soluble active ingredients are usually incorporated by dispersing the cast film with an aqueous solution of the compound. The unencapsulated compound is then removed by centrifugation, chromatography, dialysis or other art-known suitable procedures. The lipid-soluble active ingredient is usually incorporated by dissolving it in the organic solvent with the phospholipid prior to casting the film. If the solubility of the material in the lipid phase is not exceeded or the amount present is not in excess of that which can be bound to the lipid, liposomes prepared by the above method usually contain most of the material bound in the lipid bilayers; separation of the liposomes from unencapsulated material is not required.
- A particularly convenient method for preparing liposome formulated forms of hedgehog and ptc therapeutics is the method described in EP-A-253,619, incorporated herein by reference. In this method, single bilayered liposomes containing encapsulated active ingredients are prepared by dissolving the lipid component in an organic medium, injecting the organic solution of the lipid component under pressure into an aqueous component while simultaneously mixing the organic and aqueous components with a high speed homogenizer or mixing means, whereupon the liposomes are formed spontaneously.
- The single bilayered liposomes containing the encapsulated hedgehog or ptc therapeutic can be employed directly or they can be employed in a suitable pharmaceutically acceptable carrier for localized administration. The viscosity of the liposomes can be increased by the addition of one or more suitable thickening agents such as, for example xanthan gum, hydroxypropyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose and mixtures thereof. The aqueous component may consist of water alone or it may contain electrolytes, buffered systems and other ingredients, such as, for example, preservatives. Suitable electrolytes which can be employed include metal salts such as alkali metal and alkaline earth metal salts. The preferred metal salts are calcium chloride, sodium chloride and potassium chloride. The concentration of the electrolyte may vary from zero to 260 mM, preferably from 5 mM to 160 mM. The aqueous component is placed in a suitable vessel which can be adapted to effect homogenization by effecting great turbulence during the injection of the organic component. Homogenization of the two components can be accomplished within the vessel, or, alternatively, the aqueous and organic components may be injected separately into a mixing means which is located outside the vessel. In the latter case, the liposomes are formed in the mixing means and then transferred to another vessel for collection purpose.
- The organic component consists of a suitable non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable solvent such as, for example ethanol, glycerol, propylene glycol and polyethylene glycol, and a suitable phospholipid which is soluble in the solvent. Suitable phospholipids which can be employed include lecithin, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatydylserine, phosphatidylethanol-amine, phosphatidylinositol, lysophosphatidylcholine and phospha-tidyl glycerol, for example. Other lipophilic additives may be employed in order to selectively modify the characteristics of the liposomes. Examples of such other additives include stearylamine, phosphatidic acid, tocopherol, cholesterol and lanolin extracts.
- In addition, other ingredients which can prevent oxidation of the phospholipids may be added to the organic component. Examples of such other ingredients include tocopherol, butylated hydroxyanisole, butylated hydroxytoluene, ascorbyl palmitate and ascorbyl oleate. Preservatives such a benzoic acid, methyl paraben and propyl paraben may also be added.
- Methods of introduction may also be provided by rechargeable or biodegradable devices. Various slow release polymeric devices have been developed and tested in vivo in recent years for the controlled delivery of drugs, including proteinacious biopharmaceuticals. A variety of biocompatible polymers (including hydrogels), including both biodegradable and non-degradable polymers, can be used to form an implant for the sustained release of an hh at a particular target site. Such embodiments of the present invention can be used for the delivery of an exogenously purified hedgehog protein, which has been incorporated in the polymeric device, or for the delivery of hedgehog produced by a cell encapsulated in the polymeric device.
- An essential feature of certain embodiments of the implant can be the linear release of the therapeutic, which can be achieved through the manipulation of the polymer composition and form. By choice of monomer composition or polymerization technique, the amount of water, porosity and consequent permeability characteristics can be controlled. The selection of the shape, size, polymer, and method for implantation can be determined on an individual basis according to the disorder to be treated and the individual patient response. The generation of such implants is generally known in the art. See, for example,Concise Encylopedia of Medical & Dental Materials, ed. by David Williams (MIT Press: Cambridge, Mass., 1990); and the Sabel et al. U.S. Pat. No. 4,883,666.
- In another embodiment of an implant, a source of cells producing the therapeutic, e.g., secreting a soluble form of a hedgehog protein, is encapsulated in implantable hollow fibers or the like. Such fibers can be pre-spun and subsequently loaded with the cell source (Aebischer et al. U.S. Pat. No. 4,892,538; Aebischer et al. U.S. Pat. No. 5,106,627; Hoffman et al. (1990)Expt. Neurobiol. 110:39-44; Jaeger et al. (1990) Prog. Brain Res. 82:41-46; and Aebischer et al. (1991) J. Biomech. Eng. 113:178-183), or can be co-extruded with a polymer which acts to form a polymeric coat about the cells (Lim U.S. Pat. No. 4,391,909; Sefton U.S. Pat. No. 4,353,888; Sugamori et al. (1989) Trans. Am. Artif. Intern. Organs 35:791-799; Sefton et al. (1987) Biotehnol. Bioeng. 29:1135-1143; and Aebischeretal. (1991) Biomaterials 12:50-55).
- Exemplification
- The invention now being generally described, it will be more readily understood by reference to the following examples which are included merely for purposes of illustration of certain aspects and embodiments of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the invention.
- Sonic Hedgehog (Shh) was evaluated in the focal stroke model involving permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) in the spontaneously hypertensive rat. Samples of the proteins were tested as a neuroprotective agent by measuring the volume of cerebral infarction, by means of vital dye exclusion, in animals receiving systemic injections. For review of the MCAO, see Tamura et al. (1981)J Cerebral Blood Flow and Metabolism 1:53-60.
- Briefly, male Wistar rats, weighing about 270-300g were treated systemically with Shh at 500 μg/kg/hr for 3 hrs at 0.5 ml/hr. Control animals received buffer at same dilution as Shh stock for the same period of time and volumes.
- Prior to administration of the Shh or control stocks, the MCAO animals were generated as follows: the rats were anesthesized, with 400 mg/ml chloral hydrate, and their femoral vein and artery were cannulated. Mean arterial blood pressure was monitered and blood samples taken for blood gas measurements. A half-hour later, the middle cereberal artery was occluded with a nylon monofilament suture inserted via carotid artery. Half-hour after onset of occlusion, having allowed animal to awake, infusion of Shh or buffer/vehicle was started. The catheters were removed, and the animals were returned to their cages. At 24 hours post-surgery, the animals sacrificed by decapitation. Their brains were removed and cut into 2 mm serial, coronal sections. The sections stained with TTC stain and then fixed in neutral buffered formalin. Infarct volumes measured by quantitative morphometry and expressed as a percentage of the total hemispheric volume (normalized against the contralateral hemisphere to correct for edema-associated swelling).
- FIG. 1 illustrates the results of the above-referenced experiments. A substantial decrease in the volume of the cerebral infarct was observed in the hedgehog treated rats relative to the control rats. While not shown in FIG. 1, its was further observed that there was no statistically significant effect of hedgehog on blood pressure, pH, pO2, or pCO2.
