- W4313141126 abstract "Introduction: Regulatory T cells (Tregs) suppress inflammation in atherosclerosis, and therefore have the therapeutic potential to reduce the risk of MI and stroke. However, there is currently no method to generate antigen specific Tregs that target atherosclerosis. We therefore engineered Tregs that express a Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) targeting malonaldehyde-modified LDL (MDA-LDL), the most common form of oxidized LDL and a key molecular component of atherosclerosis. Methods: Novel single chain variable fragments (scFv) were synthesized using sequences from antibodies targeting human MDA-LDL. Oxidized-LDL specific CARs (ox-CARs) were subsequently engineered by fusing each scFv to an IgG4 hinge, CD28 transmembrane and CD28/CD3z cytoplasmic domains. CD4 + CD25 + CD127 low/- Tregs were purified from human blood via FACS and lentivirally transduced to express the novel ox-CARs (ox-CAR-Tregs). Human atherosclerotic plaques were obtained from patients undergoing carotid endarterectomy (CEA). Autologous ox-CAR-Tregs were analyzed for activation after ex-vivo co-culture with CEA samples. Results: A rationally designed panel of 42 ox-CARs were engineered using scFv derived from 12 antibodies targeting MDA-LDL. We first assessed CAR expression and activation in Jurkat T cells to identify promising ox-CAR variants for further evaluation in human Tregs. After culture in the presence of MDA-LDL, six ox-CAR-Treg variants consistently showed significant activation, compared to controls, based on CD71 expression, cytokine expression and proliferation in the absence of CD3/28 stimulation. Human atherosclerotic samples were identified to have substantial amounts of MDA-LDL epitopes using IHC. Autologous ox-CAR-Tregs showed a dose-dependent increase in CD71 expression after ex-vivo co-culture with atherosclerotic plaque. Conclusion: An optimized CAR targeting MDA-LDL activates Tregs when cultured with human atherosclerotic plaque ex-vivo." @default.
