Obiettivo Laboratorio Terapie Oncologiche Avanzate • Sintetizzare innovative cito-terapie anti-cancro focalizzandosi su: A) Cellule Staminali Adulte Cellule Staminali Ematopoietiche CD34+ Cellule Staminali Mesenchimali (MSC) B) Effettori citotossici CD8+ NK

How do Mesenchymal StromalCellsInteract with Tumors? BreastCancer Specimen

The Role of TAF • Secreting Growth Factors And Cytokines Which Promote Proliferation And Survival • Contributing To The Generation Of New Blood Vessels • Driving The Recruitment Of Inflammatory Cells
The Origin of TAF Grisendi G et al, 2011
Can WeArtificiallySubstitute TAF With Infused MSC For A Therapeutic Benefit?
MSC Tumor Vessel MSC asCytopharmacologicalVehicles • MSC tropismhasbeenreported in a variety of tumor types • MSC are easilyaccessible from marrow and othersources and readily propagate in culture • MSC can be geneticallymodified to express desired gene products (retro/lenti/AAV) • MSC retain a high metabolicactivity for sufficient generation of therapeutic agents Bussolari et al. 2011

Going Back to Immunology: How do CTL/NK Cells Kill Tumors? TRAIL-R &TRAIL
What is TRAIL? • TNF-related apoptosis inducing ligand (TRAIL) belongs to the death ligand family (w/ FasL, TNF, RANKL) • TRAIL is naturally produced by NK and CD8+ T cells • TRAIL acts controlling “cellular disfunctions” Autoimmunity (i.e Diabetis) Viral Infection (i.e HIV) Cancer • TRAIL acts on specific receptors specifically located on “transformed” cells sparing normal tissues Wiley SR. et al. 1995; Walczak H. et al. 1999
TRAIL Mechanismsof Action KufeDW, et al 2003 Johnstone RW, 2008
TRAIL Receptors and Tumors • COLON CANCER(Jalving M. et al. 2006) • LUNG CANCER (Jin H. et al. 2004) • OVARIAN CANCER (Pukac L. et al. 2003) • BREAST CANCER (Rahman M. et al. 2009) • CERVICAL CARCINOMAS (Sheridan JP. et al. 1997) • GLIOBLASTOMA (Pollack IF. et al. 2001) • PANCREATIC CANCER (HalpernW. et al. 2004) • PROSTATE CANCER (YuR. et al. 2000) • TYROID CANCER (Mitsiades N. et al. 2000) • SARCOMAS (Petak I. et al. 2001) • LYMPHOMAS (Daniel D. et al. 2007) • MULTIPLE MYELOMA (Mitsiades CS. et al. 2001)
rhTRAIL in Clinical Trials Johnstone RW, 2008; Ashkenzazi A, 2009
Limits of rhTRAIL into Clinics • Short half-life after single injection • TRAIL lasts for approx. 30 minutes intopatientserum • Need of multiple injections: Increasedtoxicity (GE, Liver, Neurological) Increasedcosts Ashkenazi A. et al. 2008

PBMC + IL-2/INFg CD8+ Cells as Source of TRAIL cDNA TRAIL cDNA • Full-length human TRAIL gene was amplified from cDNA obtained from stimulated CD8+ cells • A bicistronic murine stem cell virus–derived viral vector (pMIGR1) encoding for green fluorescent protein (GFP) was generated including the full-length human TRAIL cDNA IRES pMIGR1 GFP 6065 bp GFP Transduced AD-MSC Grisendi G et al, 2010
