In vivo gene transfer of endo‐β‐galactosidase C removes αGal antigen on erythrocytes and endothelial cells of the organs

Abstract: The present study demonstrates the potential of an EndoGalC gene transfer, using a hydrodynamics-based delivery system, in eliminating alphaGal from endothelial cells in vivo. The results also ensured that EndoGalC is not harmful suggesting that the production of pigs overexpressing EndoGalC would be a reasonable alternative to pigs deficient in alpha1,3galactosyltransferase.

“…For this purpose, CTLA4Ig cDNA was injected in vein, achieving high protein expression that allowed lengthening of graft survival time. Another approach involving the hydrodynamic procedure applied to organ xenotransplantation was described by Miki et al [ 110 ] and consisted of depleting the αGal protein from erythrocytes and kidney by injecting Igκ-EndoGalC (a protein with the capacity to remove αGal). The protein was expressed, with elimination of αGal from the vascular endothelium and digestion of 97% of the protein from erythrocytes for seven days.…”

“…The results are shown as number per 0.432 mm 2 . Four high-power fields (ϫ100) from each section were photographed, and areas positively stained for ␣-SMA or type III collagen in the submesothelial area of the peritoneum (above the muscle layer) were measured by computer-aided planimetry using Mac Scope (Mitani, Fukui, Japan) (22,28).…”
