对 NK 细胞的 DNA 依赖性修饰已经挑战了4,9。因此, 我们直接介绍了一个综合预制 ribonucleoprotein (RNPs) 复合体和 Cas9 蛋白作为纯化蛋白成初级和扩大 NK 细胞8。这种方法使我们能够消除由 RNA 聚合酶 II 开始的封盖、尾矿和其他转录和平移过程, 这可能会导致 NK 细胞凋亡与 DNA 相关的转导方法有关。
此外, 这里报告的方?...

癌症免疫治疗近年来取得了进展。基因修饰的嵌合体抗原受体 (车载) T 细胞是成功地应用于癌症免疫治疗的工程免疫细胞的一个很好的例子。这些细胞最近被 FDA 批准用于治疗 CD19 + B 细胞恶性肿瘤, 但迄今为止成功仅限于携带少量多弹头抗原的疾病, 而针对这种有限的抗原曲目容易发生免疫逃逸的失败。此外, 由于异基因 t 细胞引起的移植物抗宿主病的风险, 汽车 t 细胞一直关注自体 t 细胞的使用。相反, NK 细胞能够以抗原无关的方式杀死肿瘤靶点, 不会引起 GvHD, 这使他们成为癌症免疫治疗6、7、8、9的好候选者。
CRISPR/Cas9 技术最近在工程免疫细胞中得到了应用, 但用质粒对 NK 细胞进行基因重组一直是很有挑战性的。这是由于在 DNA 依赖的情况下, 转基因分娩的困难, 如慢病毒载体和逆转录病毒转导导致大量程序相关的 nk 细胞凋亡和有限的基因工程 nk 细胞的生产4,9。
许多先天免疫细胞表达了与病原体相关的分子模式的高水平的受体, 如维甲酸诱导基因 i (钻机 i), 这使更多的识别外国 DNA。在使用基于 DNA 的基因修饰方法10时, 抑制这些通路使 NK 细胞的转导效率提高。
本文介绍了利用 Cas9 ribonucleoprotein 配合物 (Cas9/RNPs) 对原发性和扩张的人 NK 细胞进行无 DNA 基因组编辑的方法。Cas9/RNPs 由三组分组成, 重组 Cas9 蛋白与合成的单导 RNA 组成的复合 crRNA 和 tracerRNA。这些 Cas9/RNPs 能够分裂基因组目标, 与国外 DNA 依赖的方法相比, 由于其作为功能性复合物的交付。此外, 快速清除细胞中的 Cas9/RNPs 可减少诱导凋亡等非靶向效应。因此, 它们可以用来产生敲出, 或与 DNA 结合, 以同源重组6,7。结果表明, Cas9/RNPs 电穿孔是克服 NK 细胞遗传修饰的早期约束的一种简便、相对有效的方法。
TGFβ是抑制 NK 细胞活化和功能的主要免疫抑制因子。有人建议, 靶向 TGFβ通路可以增加免疫细胞功能。我们针对的区域编码 TGBR2 胞外区绑定 TGFβ11.结果表明, 该基因 mRNA 表达水平显著下降, 进一步证明改良后的 NK 细胞对 TGFβ有抵抗力。此外, 改良后的细胞保持生存能力和增殖潜能, 因为它们能够在电穿孔后使用辐照的馈线细胞扩大.因此, 下面的方法是一个有希望的方法, 基因操作 NK 细胞为任何进一步的临床或研究目的。

CRISPR/Cas9 技术正在加速许多细胞类型的基因组工程, 但到目前为止, 基因传递和稳定的基因修饰在原 NK 细胞中具有挑战性。例如, 使用慢病毒载体或逆转录病毒转导的转基因分娩导致转基因 nk 细胞的产量有限, 这是由于大量程序相关的 nk 细胞凋亡所致。我们这里描述了一个无 DNA 的方法, 基因组编辑的人原发性和扩大 NK 细胞使用 Cas9 ribonucleoprotein 配合物 (Cas9/RNPs)。这种方法可以有效地剔除 NK 细胞中的 TGFBR2和HPRT1 基因。rt-pcr 数据显示, 基因表达水平显著下降, 一个代表性细胞产品的细胞毒性试验表明, RNP 修饰 NK 细胞对 TGFβ的敏感性较低。经辐照 mbIL21-expressing 馈线细胞刺激后, 基因修饰细胞可扩大电穿孔。

Efficient Generation of hiPSC Neural Lineage Specific Knockin Reporters Using the CRISPR/Cas9 and Cas9 Double Nickase System

Gene targeting is a critical approach for characterizing gene functions in modern biomedical research. However, the efficiency of gene targeting in human cells has been low, which prevents the generation of human cell lines at a desired rate. The past two years have witnessed a rapid progression on improving efficiency of genetic manipulation by genome editing tools such as the CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats)/Cas (CRISPR-associated) system. This manuscript describes a protocol for generating lineage specific human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) reporters using CRISPR/Cas system assisted homologous recombination. Procedures for obtaining necessary components for making neural lineage reporter lines using the CRISPR/Cas system, focusing on construction of targeting vectors and single guide RNAs, are described. This protocol can be extended to platform establishment and mutation correction in hiPSCs.

Selection-dependent and Independent Generation of CRISPR/Cas9-mediated Gene Knockouts in Mammalian Cells

The CRISPR/Cas9 genome engineering system has revolutionized biology by allowing for precise genome editing with little effort. Guided by a single guide RNA (sgRNA) that confers specificity, the Cas9 protein cleaves both DNA strands at the targeted locus. The DNA break can trigger either non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) or homology directed repair (HDR). NHEJ can introduce small deletions or insertions which lead to frame-shift mutations, while HDR allows for larger and more precise perturbations. Here, we present protocols for generating knockout cell lines by coupling established CRISPR/Cas9 methods with two options for downstream selection/screening. The NHEJ approach uses a single sgRNA cut site and selection-independent screening, where protein production is assessed by dot immunoblot in a high-throughput manner. The HDR approach uses two sgRNA cut sites that span the gene of interest. Together with a provided HDR template, this method can achieve deletion of tens of kb, aided by the inserted selectable resistance marker. The appropriate applications and advantages of each method are discussed.

Recent advances in the ability to genetically manipulate somatic cell lines hold great potential for basic and applied research. Here, we present two approaches for CRISPR/Cas9 generated knockout production and screening in mammalian cell lines, with and without the use of selectable markers.

Highly Efficient Gene Disruption of Murine and Human Hematopoietic Progenitor Cells by CRISPR/Cas9

Advances in the hematopoietic stem cell (HSCs) field have been aided by methods to genetically engineer primary progenitor cells as well as animal models. Complete gene ablation in HSCs required the generation of knockout mice from which HSCs could be isolated, and gene ablation in primary human HSCs was not possible. Viral transduction could be used for knock-down approaches, but these suffered from variable efficacy. In general, genetic manipulation of human and mouse hematopoietic cells was hampered by low efficiencies and extensive time and cost commitments. Recently, CRISPR/Cas9 has dramatically expanded the ability to engineer the DNA of mammalian cells. However, the application of CRISPR/Cas9 to hematopoietic cells has been challenging, mainly due to their low transfection efficiencies, the toxicity of plasmid-based approaches and the slow turnaround time of virus-based protocols.
A rapid method to perform CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene editing in murine and human hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells with knockout efficiencies of up to 90% is provided in this article. This approach utilizes a ribonucleoprotein (RNP) delivery strategy with a streamlined three-day workflow. The use of Cas9-sgRNA RNP allows for a hit-and-run approach, introducing no exogenous DNA sequences in the genome of edited cells and reducing off-target effects. The RNP-based method is fast and straightforward: it does not require cloning of sgRNAs, virus preparation or specific sgRNA chemical modification. With this protocol, scientists should be able to successfully generate knockouts of a gene of interest in primary hematopoietic cells within a week, including downtimes for oligonucleotide synthesis. This approach will allow a much broader group of users to adapt this protocol for their needs.

A protocol for fast CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene disruption in mouse and human primary hematopoietic cells is described in this article. Cas9-sgRNA ribonucleoproteins are introduced via electroporation with sgRNAs generated through in vitro transcription and commercial Cas9. High editing efficiencies are achieved with limited time and financial cost.

Development of Knock-Out Muscle Cell Lines using Lentivirus-Mediated CRISPR/Cas9 Gene Editing

One important application of clustered regulatory interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/Cas 9 is the development of knock-out cell lines, specifically to study the function of new genes/proteins associated with a disease, identified during the genetic diagnosis. For the development of such cell lines, two major issues have to be untangled: insertion of the CRISPR tools (the Cas9 and the guide RNA) with high efficiency into the chosen cells, and restriction of the Cas9 activity to the specific deletion of the chosen gene. The protocol described here is dedicated to the insertion of the CRISPR tools in difficult to transfect cells, such as muscle cells. This protocol is based on the use of lentiviruses, produced with plasmids publicly available, for which all the cloning steps are described to target a gene of interest. The control of Cas9 activity has been performed using an adaptation of a previously described system called KamiCas9, in which the transduction of the cells with a lentivirus encoding a guide RNA targeting the Cas9 allows the progressive abolition of Cas9 expression. This protocol has been applied to the development of a RYR1-knock out human muscle cell line, which has been further characterized at the protein and functional level, to confirm the knockout of this important calcium channel involved in muscle intracellular calcium release and in excitation-contraction coupling. The procedure described here can easily be applied to other genes in muscle cells or in other difficult to transfect cells and produce valuable tools to study these genes in human cells.

The protocol describes how to generate knock-out myoblasts using CRISPR/Cas9, starting from the design of guide-RNAs to the cellular cloning and characterization of the knock-out clones.

Gene Knock-in by CRISPR/Cas9 and Cell Sorting in Macrophage and T Cell Lines

Functional genomics studies of the immune system require genetic manipulations that involve both deletion of target genes and addition of elements to proteins of interest. Identification of gene functions in cell line models is important for gene discovery and exploration of cell-intrinsic mechanisms. However, genetic manipulations of immune cells such as T cells and macrophage cell lines using CRISPR/Cas9-mediated knock-in are difficult because of the low transfection efficiency of these cells, especially in a quiescent state. To modify genes in immune cells, drug-resistance selection and viral vectors are typically used to enrich for cells expressing the CRIPSR/Cas9 system, which inevitably results in undesirable intervention of the cells. In a previous study, we designed dual fluorescent reporters coupled to CRISPR/Cas9 that were transiently expressed after electroporation. This technical solution leads to rapid gene deletion in immune cells; however, gene knock-in in immune cells such as T cells and macrophages without the use of drug-resistance selection or viral vectors is even more challenging. In this article, we show that by using cell sorting to aid selection of cells transiently expressing CRISPR/Cas9 constructs targeting the Rosa26 locus in combination with a donor plasmid, gene knock-in can be achieved in both T cells and macrophages without drug-resistance enrichment. As an example, we show how to express human ACE2, a receptor of SARS-Cov-2, which is responsible for the current Covid-19 pandemic, in RAW264.7 macrophages by performing knock-in experiments. Such gene knock-in cells can be widely used for mechanistic studies.

This protocol uses fluorescent reporters and cell sorting to simplify knock-in experiments in macrophage and T cell lines. Two plasmids are used for these simplified knock-in experiments, namely a CRISPR/Cas9- and DsRed2-expressing plasmid and a homologous recombination donor plasmid expressing EBFP2, which is permanently integrated at the Rosa26 locus in immune cells.

Electroporation-Based CRISPR-Cas9-Mediated Gene Knockout in THP-1 Cells and Single-Cell Clone Isolation

The human acute monocytic leukemia (AML) THP-1 cell line is widely used as a model to study the functions of human monocyte-derived macrophages, including their interplay with significant human pathogens such as the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Compared to other immortalized cell lines of myeloid origin, THP-1 cells retain many intact inflammatory signaling pathways and display phenotypic characteristics that more closely resemble those of primary monocytes, including the ability to differentiate into macrophages when treated with phorbol-12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA). The use of CRISPR-Cas9 technology to engineer THP-1 cells through targeted gene knockout (KO) provides a powerful approach to better characterize immune-related mechanisms, including virus-host interactions. This article describes a protocol for efficient CRISPR-Cas9-based engineering using electroporation to deliver pre-assembled Cas9:sgRNA ribonucleoproteins into the cell nucleus. Using multiple sgRNAs targeting the same locus at slightly different positions results in the deletion of large DNA fragments, thereby increasing editing efficiency, as assessed by the T7 endonuclease I assay. CRISPR-Cas9-mediated editing at the genetic level was validated by Sanger sequencing followed by Inference of CRISPR Edits (ICE) analysis. Protein depletion was confirmed by immunoblotting coupled with a functional assay. Using this protocol, up to 100% indels in the targeted locus and a decrease of over 95% in protein expression were achieved. The high editing efficiency makes it convenient to isolate single-cell clones by limiting dilution.

The THP-1 cell line is widely used as a model to investigate the functions of human monocytes/macrophages across various biology-related research areas. This article describes a protocol for efficient CRISPR-Cas9-based engineering and single-cell clone isolation, enabling the production of robust and reproducible phenotypic data.

Genome Engineering of Primary Human B Cells Using CRISPR/Cas9

B cells are lymphocytes derived from hematopoietic stem cells and are a key component of the humoral arm of the adaptive immune system. They make attractive candidates for cell-based therapies because of their ease of isolation from peripheral blood, their ability to expand in vitro, and their longevity in vivo. Additionally, their normal biological function&#8212;to produce large amounts of antibodies&#8212;can be utilized to express very large amounts of a therapeutic protein, such as a recombinant antibody to fight infection, or an enzyme for the treatment of enzymopathies. Here, we provide detailed methods for isolating primary human B cells from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and activating/expanding isolated B cells in vitro. We then demonstrate the steps involved in using the CRISPR/Cas9 system for site-specific KO of endogenous genes in B cells. This method allows for efficient KO of various genes, which can be used to study the biological functions of genes of interest. We then demonstrate the steps for using the CRISPR/Cas9 system together with a recombinant, adeno-associated, viral (rAAV) vector for efficient site-specific integration of a transgene expression cassette in B cells. Together, this protocol provides a step-by-step engineering platform that can be used in primary human B cells to study biological functions of genes as well as for the development of B-cell therapeutics.

Here we provide a detailed, step-by-step protocol for CRISPR/Cas9-based genome engineering of primary human B cells for gene knockout (KO) and knock-in (KI) to study biological functions of genes in B cells and the development of B-cell therapeutics.

Delivery of the Cas9/sgRNA Ribonucleoprotein Complex in Immortalized and Primary Cells via Virus-like Particles ("Nanoblades")

The clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-Cas system has democratized genome-editing in eukaryotic cells and led to the development of numerous innovative applications. However, delivery of the Cas9 protein and single-guide RNA (sgRNA) into target cells can be technically challenge. Classical viral vectors, such as those derived from lentiviruses (LVs) or adeno-associated viruses (AAVs), allow for efficient delivery of transgenes coding for the Cas9 protein and its associated sgRNA in many primary cells and in vivo. Nevertheless, these vectors can suffer from drawbacks such as integration of the transgene in the target cell genome, a limited cargo capacity, and long-term expression of the Cas9 protein and guide RNA in target cells.
To overcome some of these problems, a delivery vector based on the murine Leukemia virus (MLV) was developed to package the Cas9 protein and its associated guide RNA in the absence of any coding transgene. By fusing the Cas9 protein to the C-terminus of the structural protein Gag from MLV, virus-like particles (VLPs) loaded with the Cas9 protein and sgRNA (named &#34;Nanoblades&#34;) were formed. Nanoblades can be collected from the culture medium of producer cells, purified, quantified, and used to transduce target cells and deliver the active Cas9/sgRNA complex. Nanoblades deliver their ribonucleoprotein (RNP) cargo transiently and rapidly in a wide range of primary and immortalized cells and can be programmed for other applications, such as transient transcriptional activation of targeted genes, using modified Cas9 proteins. Nanoblades are capable of in vivo genome-editing in the liver of injected adult mice and in oocytes to generate transgenic animals. Finally, they can be complexed with donor DNA for &#34;transfection-free&#34; homology-directed repair. Nanoblade preparation is simple, relatively low-cost, and can be easily carried out in any cell biology laboratory.

Generation of a RIP1 Knockout U937 Cell Line Using the CRISPR-Cas9 System

This protocol outlines a procedure for knocking out the RIP1 gene using CRISPR/Cas9 in the human monocyte U937 cell line. The method utilizes designated guide RNA plasmids and lentiviral packaging plasmids to achieve RIP1 gene knockout. The protocol addresses challenges and improvements to traditional CRISPR methods, enabling its replication for future cell death studies. The resulting mutant cells can be used to investigate mechanistic changes in cell death, where functional RIP1 proteins would otherwise play a role. Viability assays demonstrated a significant reduction in cell death in knockout cells following necroptosis induction. Fluorescence microscopy revealed a marked decrease in mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) in knockout cells under the same conditions. Together, these functional assays confirm the loss of RIP1 protein. Optimized for use with U937 human monocytes, this procedure may also be adapted to target other key cell death regulators, yielding functional, non-lethal mutants. Potential pitfalls are addressed throughout to provide insights into challenges that may arise during mutant generation.

As CRISPR-related protocols become increasingly useful and accessible, complications and obstacles can still arise under specific experimental conditions. This protocol outlines the creation of a receptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 1 (RIPK1/RIP1) knockout human cell line using CRISPR/Cas9 and highlights potential challenges encountered during this process.

This video demonstrates an assay for performing gene editing in human T cells using the CRISPR-Cas9 technology. A mixture of primary CD4+ and CD8+ T cells is combined with a CRISPR-Cas9 ribonucleoprotein complex, targeting specific genes for knockout. Upon electroporation, the sgRNA guides Cas9 to the target DNA sequence, creating precise cuts. These cuts are then repaired by the cell&#39;s non-homologous end-joining mechanism, leading to gene knockout.
