摘要：A recombinant AAV2 (rAAV2) vector encoding antisense RNA to HIV-1 transactivating region (TAR) was evaluated for transduction of human cord blood CD34+CD38- hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) capable of serial engraftment in nonobese diabetic (NOD)/severe combined immunodeficient (SCID) mice. Results revealed long-term multilineage marking in primary and secondary recipients, and significantly, an enrichment of transduced cells in secondary hosts, indicating efficient transduction of multipotential self-renewing HSC. These results were confirmed by the persistence of rAAV marking of clonogenic progenitors in serial analyses of recipient marrow. Upon HIV-1 challenge, the macrophage progeny of transduced CD34+ cells expressed antisense RNA and exhibited sustained and significant inhibition of virus replication as compared with controls in every donor tested, without selective pressure. This study represents a clear in vivo demonstration of efficient rAAV2 transduction of human HSC.
