Gene transfer that relies on integrating vectors often suffers from epigenetic or regulatory effects that influence the expression of the therapeutic gene and=or of cellular genes located near the vector integration site in the chromosome. Insulator elements act to block gene activation by enhancers, while chromatin domain boundary or barrier sequences prevent gene-silencing effects. At present, the modes of action of insulator and barriers are poorly understood, and their use in the context of gene therapies remains to be documented. Using combinations of reporter genes coding for indicator fluorescent proteins, we constructed assay systems that allow the quantification of the insulator or barrier activities of genetic elements in individual cells. This presentation will illustrate how these assay systems were used to identify short DNA elements that insulate nearby genes from activation by viral vector elements, and=or that block the propagation of a silent chromatin structure that leads to gene silencing. We will show that some barrier elements do not merely block repressive effects, but that they can act to stabilize and sustain transgene expression. We will illustrate that this may be beneficial when transgenes are introduced into stem or precursor cells using non-viral vectors, where later differentiation may lead to the silencing of the therapeutic gene. We will show that these elements can be used to maintain efficient transgene expression upon the differentiation of murine precursor cells towards myofibers, in a model of cell therapy for muscle dystrophies.

OBJECTIVES: This study sought to investigate whether self-expanding stents are more effective than balloon-expandable stents for reducing stent malapposition at 3 days after implantation in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention. BACKGROUND: Acute myocardial infarction is associated with vasoconstriction and large thrombus burden. Resolution of vasoconstriction and thrombus load during the first hours to days after primary percutaneous coronary intervention may lead to stent undersizing and malapposition, which may subsequently lead to stent thrombosis or restenosis. In addition, aggressive stent deployment may cause distal embolization. METHODS: Eighty patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention were randomized to receive a self-expanding stent (STENTYS, STENTYS SA, Paris, France) (n = 43) or a balloon-expandable stent (VISION, Abbott Vascular, Santa Clara, California; or Driver, Medtronic, Minneapolis, Minnesota) (n = 37) at 9 European centers. The primary endpoint was the proportion of stent strut malapposition at 3 days after implantation measured by optical coherence tomography. Secondary endpoints included major adverse cardiac events (cardiac death, recurrent myocardial infarction, emergent bypass surgery, or clinically driven target lesion revascularization). RESULTS: At 3 days after implantation, on a per-strut basis, a lower rate of malapposed stent struts was observed by optical coherence tomography in the self-expanding stent group than in the balloon-expandable group (0.58% vs. 5.46%, p < 0.001). On a per-patient basis, none of the patients in the self-expanding stent group versus 28% in the balloon-expandable group presented ≥5% malapposed struts (p < 0.001). At 6 months, major adverse cardiac events were 2.3% versus 0% in the self-expanding and balloon-expandable groups, respectively (p = NS). CONCLUSIONS: Strut malapposition at 3 days is significantly lower in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction patients allocated to self-expanding stents when than in those allocated to balloon-expandable stents. The impact of this difference on clinical outcome and the risk of late stent thrombosis need to be evaluated further.
