My laboratory is interested in developing innovative therapeutic genome editing tools to treat patients with inherited hematological disorders such as sickle cell diseases, thalassemia and Hemophilia A&B. We are planning to directly manipulate the genome of human hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in a sequence specific manner using targeted genome engineering platform based on CRISPR/CAS9 system for the treatment of inherited hematological disorders. We are further working on the delivery platforms to increase the genome editing efficiency and reduce the off target effects. We anticipate that our strategy will overcome the therapeutic barriers that currently limit the clinical applications.
1.Preclinical genome editing approach for the treatment of beta-globin disorders
(I). Non deletional HPFH
Non deletional HPFH mutations are caused by point mutations in the HBG1 and HBG2 gene promoters. These point mutations greatly increase the production of Aγ-globin or Gγ-globin chain, which is normally silenced in humans after birth. In this context, we are using CRISPR- base editing approach to recreate the naturally occurring HPFH-associated mutation in human blood progenitors for the therapeutic induction of fetal hemoglobin level. In addition, we screened the proximal promoter of human HBG genes using adenine and cytosine base editors to identify key nucleotide point mutations that could potentially lead to elevated levels of fetal globin. Through systematic tiling across the HBG proximal promoter, we identified multiple novel target sites that resulted in a significant increase in fetal globin levels. This work shed light on so far unknown regulatory elements within the HBG promoter that normally mediates fetal globin silencing and identified additional targets for therapeutic upregulation of fetal hemoglobin
(II) Fetal globin repressors
Several transcription factors including BCL11A play a vital role through modulation of fetal globin level. However, BCL11A is dispensable in non-erythroid functions such as for normal lymphoid and neural development. Functional mapping of the Bcl11A enhancer identified the minimal critical sequence that is specific for erythroid specific BCL11A expression. For the targeted editing of fetal globin repressors, we are editing of erythroid specific BCL11A enhancer in mobilized hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) from sickle cell disease, beta thalassemia and normal donor using the CRISPR/cas9 system.
2.Genome engineering hematopoietic stem cells for the treatment of Hemophilia A
Hemophilia A (HA) is an X-linked monogenic congenital bleeding disorder due defective FVIII in the bloodstream. Currently available therapeutic options include clotting factor replacement either with functional recombinant protein or with delivering FVIII gene in viral vectors. However, they are limited with immune tolerance induction and preexisting antibodies respectively. Even a small increase in FVIII levels can significantly ameliorate disease phenotype and patient’s quality of life, making this disease an optimal target for CRISPR/cas9 based genome editing system. To improve the current approaches of gene therapy for Hemophilia A, we are working on a novel ex vivo gene therapy approach for targeted integration of FVIII in hematopoietic stem cells for the treatment Hemophilia A.
