Apoptóza neboli programovaná buněčná smrt
• Charakterizována kondenzací chromatinu,
puchýřkovatěním cytoplazmatické membrány
(budding) a tvorbou apoptotických tělísek
• Apoptotická tělíska jsou fagocytována a nedochází k
zánětlivé reakci

Autofagie
Hlavní znaky
Apoptóza
• Charakterizována kondenzací chromatinu, puchýřkovatěním cytoplazmatické membrány (budding) a tvorbou apoptotických tělísek, které jsou následně fagocytovány
• Receptorová (receptory smrti, caspáza-8) a mitochondriální dráha (rodina proteinů Bcl2, cytochrom C, caspáza-9)
Nekróza
• Charakteristická vakuolizace, permeabilizace cytoplazmatické membrány a vyvolání zánětlivé odpovědi (významné během mikrobiálních infekcí)
Autofagie
• Pravděpodobně strategie pro přežití v období nedostatku energie
Genová terapie
• Při zrodu genové terapie se uvažovalo především o léčbě vrozených monogenních chorob (např. ADA - Adenosine Deaminase Deficiency, cystic fibrosis, Huntington's chorea, muscular dystrophy )
• V současné době se většina úsilí orientuje na získané choroby, především zhoubné nádory
• Genová terapie v léčbě nádorů
– Je lehčí buňku zničit, než ji opravit (vyvolání apoptózy, …)
– Zpravidla stačí krátká exprese genu (problém umlčení cizorodých genů, zpravidla metylací)
– Vzhledem k povaze onemocnění jsou pacienti ochotni podstoupit nové postupy
Germ line gene therapy
In the case of germ line gene therapy, germ cells, i.e., sperm or eggs, are modified by
the introduction of functional genes, which are ordinarily integrated into their genomes.
This option is prohibited for application in human beings, at least for the present, for a
variety of technical and ethical reasons.
Somatic cell gene therapy
In somatic cell gene therapy, the gene is introduced only in somatic cells, especially of
those tissues in which expression of the concerned gene is critical for health.
Expression of the introduced gene relieves/ eliminates symptoms of the disorder.
Broad methods
•A normal gene may be inserted into a nonspecific location within the genome to
replace a nonfunctional gene. This approach is most common.
•An abnormal gene could be swapped for a normal gene through homologous
recombination.
•The abnormal gene could be repaired through selective reverse mutation, which
returns the gene to its normal function.
•The regulation (the degree to which a gene is turned on or off) of a particular gene
could be altered.

„…Currently gene therapy is also being used to
create recombinant cancer vaccines. …“ Cells engineered in vitro
to be more recognizable
to the immune system
by the addition of one or
more genes, which are
often cytokine genes
that produce pro-
inflammatory
immune stimulating
molecules, or highly
antigenic protein genes.
… delivery
of immunostimulatory
genes, mainly
cytokines, to the tumor
in vivo.
… directly alter the
patient’s immune
system in
order to sensitize it to
the cancer cells. A
tumor antigen, or other
stimulatory gene,
is then added to the
selected cell type.
From donated blood (usually leukapheresis) precursor cells – monocytes are extracted and in Step 1 of cell culture, transformed into dendritic cells. From tumour tissue specimens obtained from surgery, a tumour-specific antigen is produced with which dendritic cells are loaded. Additionally, dendritic cells are also loaded with a control antigen – key-hole limpet hemocyanin (KLH). The control antigen enables monitoring of the success of vaccination. After an activation step, Step 2, the ‘mature’ antigen-loaded dendritic cells are administered to the patient in the form of vaccination.
Oncolytic gene therapy vectors are generally viruses that have been genetically engineered to
target and destroy cancer cells while remaining innocuous to the rest of the body. A number of
different viruses have been used for this purpose, including vaccinia, adenovirus, herpes simplex
virus type I, reovirus and Newcastle disease virus.
The most notable adenoviral therapy is the ONYX-015 viral therapy. ONYX-015 is an adenovirus
that has been engineered to lack the viral E1B protein. Without this protein, the virus is unable to
replicate in cells with a normal p53 pathway. Cancer cells often have deficiencies in the p53
pathway due to mutations and thus, allow ONYX-015 to replicate and lyse the cells. ONYX-
015 has been tested in phase I and II trials on squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck that
resulted in tumor regression which correlated to the p53 status of the tumor.
Challenges in Gene Therapy
http://learn.genetics.utah.edu/units/genetherapy/gtchallenges/
From Research to Trials (15 years for ADA)
STEP 1: Learn about the disease
Is the disorder a good candidate for gene therapy? To find out, study the disease.
1) Get money for the project
2) Get approval for the project
3) Perform clinical research
4) Perform biological research
5) DECISION: Is the disorder a good candidate for gene therapy?
STEP 2: Design a gene therapy
1) Use your knowledge of the disorder to design a gene therapy
2) Test the therapy in appropriate models of the disease
3) DECISION: Does your therapy look promising?
http://learn.genetics.utah.edu/units/genetherapy/gtresearch/
STEP 3: Get money and approval for clinical trials
1) Get money for the trials
2) Get approval for the trials
STEP 4: Phase One clinical trial
1) Establish safety and dosage limits in a small group of people (20-80)
2) DECISION: Does your therapy still look promising?
STEP 5: Phase Two clinical trial
1)Test the efficacy and safety in a larger group of people (100-300)
2) DECISION: Is your therapy effective in a larger group of people?
STEP 6: Phase Three clinical trial
1) Test the therapy in a large group of people (1,000-3,000)
2) DECISION: Is your treatment successful?
STEP 7: Get FDA approval for general clinical use
1) Write proposals, fill out paperwork, answer questions and wait for approval
STEP 8: Phase Four clinical trial
1) Further test the efficacy and optimal use of the treatment in general use

Amariglio et al.: Donor-Derived Brain Tumor Following Neural Stem Cell
Transplantation in an Ataxia Telangiectasia Patient. Plos Medicine 2009; 6:e1000029.
A 13-y-old boy with AT, who is homozygous for the ATM gene mutation, presented to the
Sheba Medical Center in February 2005 with recurrent headaches. On examination he had
severe neurological deficits characteristic of AT, affecting mainly his motor functions and
making him wheelchair bound. The patient’s intelligence was normal and he is highly
motivated at school and socially active. His recent detailed immunologic and hematological
status is given in Table S2. Since the age of 7 y he has been treated for
hypogammaglobulinemia at the Sheba Medical Center with monthly intravenous
immunoglobulin.
In May 2001 at the age of 9y, in March 2002 at the age of 10y, and in July 2004 at the age
of 12 y, he was taken by his parents to be treated in Moscow with repeated transplantation
of fetal stem cells (see Text S1 for details as supplied to the parents by the patient’s
physicians in Moscow).
Four years after the first treatment he was diagnosed with a multifocal brain tumor. The
biopsied tumor was diagnosed as a glioneuronal neoplasm. Molecular and cytogenetic
studies showed that the tumor was of nonhost origin suggesting it was derived from the
transplanted neural stem cells. Microsatellite and HLA analysis demonstrated that the tumor
is derived from at least two donors.
