Definitions

  • the present invention relates compositions useful for modulating Fas and Fas ligand expression on cells and for modulating efficacy of therapeutic agents.
  • Fas is a type-I membrane protein abundantly expressed by cells in various tissues and particularly on activated T cells, heart cells, kidney cells and hepatocytes.
  • FasL is a type-II transmembrane protein expressed particularly on activated T cells and natural killer cells (Nagata, S. Ann. Rev. Genet. 33:29, 1999), and is expressed constitutively in immune- privileged sites as, for example, the eye and testis (Griffith et al. Science 270:630, 1995).
  • Fas and FasL interactions play an essential role in the regulation of immune cells and in the elimination of autoreactive cells (Sabelko- Downes et al. Curr. Opin. Immunol. 12:330, 2000).
  • Fas/FasL mediates the killing of cancer cells and of virus-infected cells (Famularo et al. Med. Hypoth. 53:50, 1999; Owen-Schaub et al. Int. J. Oncol. 17:5, 2000).
  • FasL expressed on cancer cells, may attack cells of the immune system (O'Connell, J. Exp. Med.
  • FasL expressed on activated T cells, may also participate in tissue damage in fulminant hepatitis and in graft- versus-host disease (Kondo et al. Nature Med. 3:409, 1997; Braun et al. J. Exp. Med. 183:657, 1996).
  • Apoptosis is an active cellular death process characterized by distinctive morphological changes that include condensation of nuclear chromatin, cell shrinkage, nuclear disintegration, plasma membrane blebbing, and the formation of membrane-bound apoptotic bodies (Wyllie et al. Int. Rev. Cytol. 68:251, 1980).
  • a molecular hallmark of apoptosis is degradation of cellular nuclear DNA into oligonucleosomal-length fragments as the result of activation of endogenous endonucleases (Wyllie A. Nature 284:555, 1980).
  • Caspases cyste-aspartyl- specific proteases
  • the binding of FasL to Fas activates a cascade of caspases via a FADD adaptor (Fas-associated protein with death domain), which leads to the cleavage of various cellular substrates and to DNA fragmentation (Nagata, S. Ann. Rev. Genet. 33:29, 1999).
  • Synthetic oligonucleotides are polyanionic sequences that can be internalized by cells (Nlassov et al. Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1197:95, 1994) and bind selectively to nucleic acids (Wagner, R. Nature: 372:333, 1994), to specific cellular proteins (Bates et al. J. Biol. Chem. 274:26369, 1999) and to specific nuclear proteins (Scaggiante et al. Eur. J. Biochem. 252:207, 1998), and inhibit cell proliferation. Proliferation is the culmination of the progression of a cell through the cell cycle, resulting in the division of one cell into two cells. Alterations in cell cycle progression occur in all cancers and may result from over-expression of genes, mutation of regulatory genes, or abrogation of DNA damage checkpoints (Hochhauser D. Anti-Cancer Chemotherapeutic Agents 8:903, 1997).
  • Synthetic phosphorothioate oligonucleotides containing unmethylated CpG dinucleotides flanked by two 5' purine and two 3' pyrimidine are reported to induce the synthesis of cytokines by macrophages and B cells, to increase the activity of NK cells and cytotoxic T lymphocytes, and to enhance T- Natl. Acad. Sci. USA93:2879, 1996; Lipford et al. Eur. J. Immunol. 27:2340, 1997).
  • a 20 base synthetic CpG motif is reported to block Fas expression on activated B cells and to block apoptosis induced by anti-Fas monoclonal antibodies (Wang et al. Cell.
  • Fas/FasL The ability to modulate the Fas/FasL system has many clinical applications for use in diseases including, but not limited to, neoplastic autoimmune, degenerative and cardiovascular diseases.
  • Fas/FasL modulating agents have proven to be less than adequate in clinical applications.
  • many of these agents are inefficient, toxic or have significant adverse effects.
