[0754] Embodiment 1 Salmonella asd gene knockout strain engineering

[0755] Strain AST-101 was prepared. It is an attenuated Salmonella typhimurium strain derived from strain YS1646 (available from ATCC, catalog number 202165 ) that has been engineered asd - (asd knockout). In this example, the Salmonella typhimurium strain YS1646 asd - Gene deletion is achieved by e.g. figure 1 Engineering was performed as shown and as a modification of the Datsenko and Wanner method (Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 97:6640-6645 (2000)) as described below. The methods and resulting products in this and all of the following examples can be used with other starting bacteria, such as wild-type Salmonella typhimurium, such as the strain deposited under ATCC deposit number #14028.

[0770] Example 2 Generation of modified Salmonella typhimurium strains from wild type Salmonella typhimurium

[0771] Separate deletion of purI from the genome of wild-type Salmonella typhimurium strain ATCC 14028 using the lambda-derived Red recombination system as described in Datsenko and Wanner (Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 97:6640-6645 (2000)) , msbB and asd genes to generate a base strain named 14028:ΔpurI / ΔmsbB / Δasd. The flagellin genes fljB and fliC were subsequently deleted to generate strain 14028: ΔpurI / ΔmsbB / Δasd / ΔfljB / Δflic, and then the pagP gene was deleted to generate strain 14028: ΔpurI / ΔmsbB / Δasd / ΔfljB / Δflicl / ΔpagP. Strains 14028:ΔpurI / ΔmsbB / Δasd / ΔfljB / Δflic and 14028:ΔpurI / ΔmsbB / Δasd / ΔfljB / Δflicl / ΔpagP were electroporated with plasmids containing functional asd genes to complement the chromosomal deletion of asd and ensure plasmid maintenance in vivo , and the eukaryotic expression cassette encodes the red fluorescent protein mCherry under the control of the ...

Abstract

Provided are delivery immunostimulatory bacteria that have enhanced colonization of tumors, the tumor microenvironment and / or tumor-resident immune cells, and enhanced anti-tumor activity. The immunostimulatory bacteria are modified by deletion of genes encoding the flagella or modification of the genes so that functional flagella are not produced, and / or are modified by deletion of pagP or modification of pagP to produce inactive PagP product. As a result, the immunostimulatory bacteria are flagellin- and / or pagP -. The immunostimulatory bacteria optionally have additional genomic modifications so that the bacteria are adenosine or purine auxotrophs. The bacteria optionally are one or more of asd -, purI - and msbB -. The immunostimulatory bacteria, such as Salmonella species, are modified to encode immunostimulatory proteins that confer anti-tumor activity in the tumor microenvironment, and / or are modified so that the bacteria preferentially infect immune cells in the tumor microenvironment or tumor-resident immune cells and / or induce less cell death in immune cells than in other cells. Also provided are methods of inhibiting the growth or reducing the volume of a solid tumor by administering the immunostimulatory bacteria.
