[0011] Age-related remodeling of the immune system impairs its functional integrity and contributes to morbidity and mortality in the elderly. contributes to increased mortality.

[0012] Age-related changes in immune system phenotype and function are primarily due to age-related hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). HSC senescence is the result of altered function of the small RhoGTPase C. Until recently, the senescent HSC phenotype was largely mediated by increased DC42 activity. are governed by cell-intrinsic regulatory mechanisms that cannot be reversed by therapeutic intervention. However, new research has shown that HSC aging can be improved. Identifying Cdc42 activity as a pharmacological target for HSC aging These findings suggest a novel and important mechanistic role for Cdc42 activity. Pharmacological inhibition of elevated Cdc42 activity in SCs may rejuvenate senescent HSCs. There is a possibility.

[0013] Cdc42 is involved in multiple functions of eukaryotic cells, including actin cytoskeleton reorganization, cell polarity, and cell proliferation. Cdc42 is involved in diverse functions of the ATPase. It can be converted into an inactive GDP-bound state and an active GTP-bound state. Cycling between GDP-bound and GTP-bound states is essential for many different regulatory pathways. Its activity and therefore the level of Cdc42-GTP are tightly regulated by the protein. The bell is found in the blood of aged animals (e.g., humans) and in tissues such as the heart, brain, lungs, liver, bone marrow, spleen, and kidneys. Cdc42GT is significantly elevated in several tissues of aged C57BL / 6 animals. Pase-activating proteins (Cdc42GAP; p50RhoGAP or ARHGAP) 1) catalyzes the hydrolysis of Cdc42-bound GTP. Cdc42GAP is a ubiquitously expressed negative regulator of Cdc42. Genetic deletion of Cdc42GAP in mice (Cdc42GAP knockout) increased the levels of Cdc42-GTP in all tissues. This constitutive increase in Cdc42 activity in young mice is associated with several It affects tissues and leads to phenotypes such as premature aging that result in shortened lifespan.

HSCs were obtained from matched donors by immunization, purified, and then treated with a Cdc42-specific inhibitor. Pre-processing HSCs eliminates the need to transplant processed donor HSCs into transplant recipients Therefore, under some of the embodiments disclosed herein, Cdc42-specific inhibition The agent essentially acts as a type of adjuvant, modifying the subject's immune system and immune response. In some embodiments, the efficacy of immunization is enhanced by administering a Cdc42-specific antibody. The selective inhibitor is combined with the immunization dose prior to administration to the subject (e.g., the subject is administered the immunogen and a Cdc42-specific inhibitor). In embodiments, the immunization dose and the Cdc42-specific inhibitor are administered separately to the subject. It is administered in doses.

[0035] In some embodiments, the Cdc42-specific inhibitor is administered to a subject after one or more immunization doses. In another embodiment, the Cdc42-specific inhibitor is administered to a subject prior to receiving a The immunization regimen is administered to a subject simultaneously with a subject receiving one or more immunization regimens. May be administered by multiple administrations over a period of time (e.g., a single office visit by a physician). Alternatively, the co-administration can be carried out simultaneously or at about the same time.

[0036] Subjects who need to receive a Cdc42-specific inhibitor to improve their immune response should first The subject does not necessarily need to be identified before administering the immunization. For example, the subject may be identified before the first attempted They may be identified by exhibiting an inadequate response to immunization. In this case, the Cdc42-specific inhibitor is administered to the subject after the subject has received one or more immunization doses. can be.

[0037] In many cases, subjects do not receive sufficient immunity from a single immunization dose, and sufficient immunity is not conferred. Multiple immunizations are required before the vaccine is administered. and administering the first Cdc42-specific inhibitor to the subject. The subject receives a first immunization dose after administration of a selective inhibitor, and the subject receives a first immunization dose after administration of a selective inhibitor. Such a regimen involves administering a second immunization dose to a subject followed by one or more subsequent immunization doses. After receiving one dose, the subject may continue to receive a third immunization dose. ~10, 1~9, 1~8, 1~7, 1~6, 1~5, 1~4, 1~3, 2~10, 2~9 , 2~8, 2~7, 2~6, 2~5, 2~4, 2~3, 3~10, 3~9, 3~8, 3~ 7, 3-6, 3-5, 3-4, 4-10, 4-9, 4-8, 4-7, 4-6, 4-5, 5 ~10, 5~9, 5~8, 5~7, 5~6, 6~10, 6~9, 6~8, 6~7, 7~1 0, 7-9, 7-8, 8-10, 8-9, 9-10, or 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 , 9, or 10 total immunization doses for immunization against individual diseases. The Cdc42-specific inhibitor may be administered prior to the first immunization or after one or more subsequent immunizations. may be administered before

[0038] In many cases, the subject requires immunization against one or more diseases (e.g., the subject has a small (immunization against multiple diseases throughout childhood or adulthood). This is This may be due to later travel or lack of childhood immunization in the subject. The dc42-specific inhibitor is administered prior to the first immunization or when the subject is diagnosed with one or more diseases, or If immunized against multiple diseases, it may be administered before one or more subsequent immunization doses. Similarly, the first immunization and subsequent immunizations may be the same or different (e.g., (e.g., in strength, concentration, or immunogen) administered to a subject. The dc42-specific inhibitors may be the same or different.

[0039] In some cases, a period of time elapses between administering immunizing doses to the subject. In embodiments, the period between immunizations is about 1 week, about 2 weeks, about 3 weeks, about 1 month, about 2 months, about 3 months, about 4 months, about 5 months, about 6 months, about 7 months, about 8 months, about 9 months, about In some embodiments, the one or more The Cdc42-specific inhibitor is administered to the subject during the period between administration of the subject's immunization doses.

[0040] Subjects who would benefit from the administration of a Cdc42-specific inhibitor during immunization would have a healthy immune system. Alternatively, in some embodiments, the subject may have a healthy immune system. The subject's immune system may be susceptible to infection, particularly depending on the subject's age, the subject's medical condition, or the subject's disease. Treatment of a subject for a condition renders the immune system susceptible to infection.

[0041] Unless otherwise specified, the full scope of the term "immunization" includes the methods disclosed herein. Immunization can be passive or active. Passive immunization is the prior activation of the immune system. The synthesized elements are transferred to the person, so the body does not need to produce these elements itself. Antibodies can be used for passive immunization. Active immunization occurs when a person comes into contact with a microorganism. They can occur naturally, such as when the virus is weakened or when a person comes into contact with a part of the microorganism. However, the immunogen need not be a microorganism, for example, in some embodiments, Immunogens can be small molecules (e.g., nicotine) or macromolecules (e.g., proteins such as oncoproteins). protein, or hormones such as ghrelin).

[0042] As discussed above, immunizations are also vaccines, although immunizations are not necessarily so limited. Thus, in some embodiments, the immunization is not a vaccine. Some vaccines are recommended by the World Health Organization or the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In some embodiments, the immunization is a vaccine recommended by the medical community. In some embodiments, the vaccine is recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Vaccines are also approved by the World Health Organization, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, or the National Institutes of Health for administration to adults. In some embodiments, the vaccine is administered to children and In some embodiments, the disease affects adults disproportionately compared to adults. In the United States, vaccines are available for influenza, whooping cough, tetanus, diphtheria, shingles, and pneumonia.

The target gene is then hybridized to the target gene. A polynucleotide containing consecutive nucleotides of sufficient length and sequence homology to a sequence Many reviews have been published on the main aspects of antisense (AS) technology and its enormous potential. It covers a wide range of therapeutic possibilities (e.g., Aboul-Fadl T., CurrMed. Chem.2005;12(19):2193-214;Crooke ST,Curr Mol.Med.2004August;4(5):465-87;Crooke S T,Annu Rev Med.2004;55:61-95;Vacek M et al.,Cell Mol Life Sci.2003 May;60(5):825 -33;Cho-ChungYS,Arch Pharm Res.2003March ;26(3):183-91;Moreira JN et al.,Rev Rec ent Clin Trials 2006 Sep;1(3):217-35) The chemical nature of this technique (Crooke, 1995; Uhlmann et al., 1999) 990), cellular (Wagner, 1994) and therapeutic (Hanania, et al , 1995; Scanlon, et al, 1995; Gewirtz, 1993) aspects Further reviews are available. Antisense intervention in the expression of specific genes is This can be achieved by using synthetic AS oligonucleotide sequences (e.g., Lefebvre-d'Hellencourt et al, 1995; Agrawa l, 1996; see LevLehman et al, 1997).

[0110] AS oligonucleotide sequences can be short sequences of DNA, usually 15-mer to 3-mer. Although it is a 0-mer, it complements the target mRNA of interest to form an RNA:AS duplex They can be as small as a 7-mer designed to 996). This duplex formation regulates the processing, splicing, and transport of the associated mRNA. Furthermore, certain AS nucleotide sequences may interfere with the target mRNA. When hybridized with NA, it induces cellular RNase H activity, leading to mRNA degradation. (Calabretta et al., 1996 Semin Oncol. 23 (1):78-87). In this case, RNase H cleaves the double-stranded RNA component, releasing AS. It may be released to further hybridize with additional molecules of target RNA. The mechanism is that AS interacts with genomic DNA to form a triple helix, rendering it transcriptionally inactive. There is a possibility that this will happen.

[0111] The sequence target segments of antisense oligonucleotides are those whose sequences match those of their complementary templates. exhibiting appropriate energy-related properties important for oligonucleotide duplex formation with the plate; Selected to show low potential for self-dimerization or self-complementarity (Anazo do et al., 1996). For example, the computer program OLIGO (registered (trademark) (Primer Analysis Software, version 3.4) was used. This is used to determine the melting temperature, free energy properties of the antisense sequence, and to identify potential self-dimers. The program can estimate the somatopoietic and self-complementary characteristics of these two It allows the determination of a qualitative estimate of the parameters (potential self-dimerization and self-complementarity) and provides an indication of "not potential" or "some potential" or "essentially complete potential" This program usually provides a solution where there is no potential for these parameters. A target segment is selected that is estimated to be As is known in the art, a segment with "multiple possibilities" can be used. A balance of data is used for selection. In addition, oligonucleotides can also be used to identify analogue substitutions. It is selected as needed so as not to substantially affect functionality.

Mitogens and Antisense oligonucleotides of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFgF) have angiogenic properties. Retinoic acid inhibition inhibited 80% of glioma cell growth in a saturable and specific manner ( Morrison, 1991). Because of their hydrophobicity, antisense oligonucleotides It interacts well with phospholipid membranes (Akhter et al., 1991).

[0113] siRNA In other embodiments, the Cdc42-specific inhibitor is a "small interfering RNA" (siRNA). siRNA can be a gene / mRNA of its endogenous cellular counterpart (e.g., Cd c42) is an RNA molecule that reduces or silences (prevents) the expression of this gene. The term is understood to include "RNA interference" (RNAi). Small interfering RNA (siRNA, e.g., short hairpin RNA (shRNA)) refers to the process of sequence-specific post-transcriptional gene silencing in mammals mediated by (Fire et al., 1998, Nature 391, 806). The corresponding process is generally called specific post-transcriptional gene silencing or RNA silencing. The RNA interference response is called sedation, also called sedation in fungi. A type of RNA that mediates the cleavage of single-stranded RNA with a sequence complementary to the antisense strand of the strand, generally A siRNA-containing endonuclease called RISC-induced silencing complex (RISC) Cleavage of the target RNA occurs relative to the antisense strand of the siRNA duplex. It can occur in the middle of the complementary region (Elbashir et al. 2001, Genes Dev.,15,188). Recent information on these terms and proposed mechanisms Regarding Bernstein E., Denli AM., Hannon GJ: The rest is silence.RNA.2001 November;7(11): 1509-21; and Nishikura K.: Ashortprimeron RN Ai:RNA-directed RNA polymerase acts as a key catalyst.Cell.2001 November16;107(4 ):415-8.

[0114] RNAi is an efficient method for inactivating genes (Nature Rev iews,2002,v.3,p.737-47;Nature,2002,v.418 , pp. 244-51). One method is to detect the entry of dsRNA species into specific protein complexes. It is based on the ability of ATP to bind to complementary cellular RNA, where it targets and specifically degrades it. Specifically, dsRNA is degraded by type III RNases (DICER, Drosha, etc.). The nucleotide sequence is then digested into short (17-29 bp) inhibitory RNAs (siRNAs) (Nature, 2001,v.409,p.363-6;Nature,2003,425,p.415 -9). These fragments and complementary mRNAs are then transduced into specific RISC protein complexes. The whole process is initiated by endonucleolytic cleavage of the target mRNA. This is realized (Nature Reviews, 2002, v.3, p.737-47; C urr Opin Mol.Ther.2003June;5(3):217-24).

Briefly, in a 96-well black plate, 25 μL of duplicate samples were added. Incubate overnight at 4°C on a plate shaker with antibody-coated beads. Next, BioTek 405TS (BioTek, Winooski, VT) Wash the plate twice using PBS, add 25 µL of secondary antibody, and incubate at room temperature for 1 min with shaking. Finally, 25 μL of streptavidin-RPE was added to the secondary antibody. The plate was then incubated at room temperature for 30 minutes with shaking. After washing twice, 150 μL of sheath fluid was added. The plate was shaken for 5 minutes and then immersed in Mil liplexAnalyzer (MilliporeSigma, Darmstadt, Germany) The concentration was measured using luminex technology. The values ​​are calculated from a standard curve using the RT-PCR method and expressed in pg / ml.

[0256] Cdc42-GTPase effector domain pull-down assay. GTP-bound Cd The relative levels of c42 were determined by effector pull-down assay. Then, lineage-depleted BM cells (10 6 ) in 10% glycerol, 25 mM sodium fluoride thorium, 1 mM sodium orthovanadate and protease inhibitor cocktail (Ro cheDiagnostics) containing Mg 2+ Lysis / Wash Buffer (Upstate The samples were lysed in cell signaling solution (Cell Signaling Solution).

[0257] Analysis of epigenetic signs of aging. CASIN(Xcessbio#M6004 0) was dissolved in DMSO at a concentration of 100 mM and added to a cyclodextrin solution (Sigma# The solution was prepared freshly before injection by diluting it with 25 mg / kg IP. The injections were administered in the morning for four consecutive days starting at 77–86 weeks of age. Control mice received an equal volume of vehicle. Mice were sacrificed 8–9 weeks after treatment, and blood was collected by cardiac puncture. Analysis of the level of cleavage was performed using three age-related CpG dinucleotides (CG dinucleotides) as previously described. Briefly, genomic DNA was isolated from blood samples and bisulfite-coated. Three genes (Prima1, Hsf4, and Kcns1) were transformed and isolated by pyrosequencing. DNA methylation at these sites was analyzed in B6 mice. Integrated into a multivariate model for epigenetic age prediction in humans and chronological age The chronological and biological ages of CASIN-treated and control mice were independently correlated. Comparisons were made using t-tests. Because the data were not normally distributed, All data were then augmented to obtain a normal distribution.

[0258] Example 1 To determine whether short-term systemic treatment of aged animals with a Cdc42-specific inhibitor modulates lifespan. To achieve this, CASIN was administered every 24 hours for 4 consecutive days to 75-week-old female C57BL / 6 mice. The serum CASIN levels were measured using liquid chromatography. -monitored by mass spectrometry (Figures 2a and 2b). At a single dose of 50 mg / kg, Initially, the serum concentration was approximately 10 μM (data not shown). A dose of 1 / kg was selected, and mass spectrometry data from serum of old mice was obtained 3 hours after injection. The CASIN concentration was 48 μM, which was in the expected range of 5 μM (Fig. 2b). The concentration decreased over the analysis window, reaching approximately 2 μM after 3 h and approximately 1 μM after 2 h. CASIN was detected in the serum at the end of the 48-hour window. There wasn't.

[0259] Four consecutive days of injection did not induce acute toxicity, and treatment was given within 4 weeks after CASIN injection. No mice died, so there was no concern about chronic toxicity due to the administration of the inhibitor. Quantification of Cdc42 activity 24 hours after the last injection on day 5 indicates that senescent showed that Cdc42-GTP in transformed bone marrow cells was reduced to the level seen in young animals ( Figure 1c), demonstrating that CASIN actually reduces Cdc42 activity after systemic in vivo treatment. As shown in Figure 1c, CASIN treatment significantly reduced the Cd damage regardless of the age of the mice. Furthermore, CASIN treatment reduced C42 activity by approximately half in the aged mouse cohort. Reverses dc42 activity to approximately the level seen in a control cohort of young mice Therefore, CASIN treatment generally reduces Cdc42 activity levels in aged mice by approximately 6 months. returned to levels present in 0-week-old young mice.

[0260] Notably, aged mice treated with CASIN for four consecutive days showed both average and maximum lifespans Therefore, treatment with a Cdc42-specific inhibitor was shown to be effective in preventing and alleviating the effects of drug therapy. despite being removed from the bloodstream immediately after cessation of treatment (e.g., long-term effects of short-term treatment) , which has a remarkable effect on extending lifespan, thereby showing lasting benefits from drug treatment. are.

[0261] In addition, weight (Fig. 2c), white blood cell count (WBC) (Fig. 2d), and red blood cell count (RBC) (Fig. 2e ), the frequency and number of myeloid and lymphoid cells in peripheral blood (PB) may increase in the short term (e.g., 7 days after starting treatment). Both in the 30 days (days) and long-term (e.g., 35 days after treatment initiation) did not change in response to CASIN treatment. It is also noteworthy that cytokine array analysis was performed to investigate the relationship between aging and senescence. Senescence-related inflammatory cytokines in the serum of aged mice were affected by CASIN treatment. The data showed that age-related changes in INFγ, IL-1β, and IL-1α The concentrations of these cytokines were significantly increased in aged animals. When treated with IN, the concentrations were similar to those in young animals (Fig. 1e-g). CASIN treatment reduces the concentrations of these cytokines, and without being bound by theory, This age-related decline in inflammatory cytokines may contribute to the increased lifespan observed in these animals. Interestingly, serum levels of IL-9 increased after CASIN treatment. IL-6, IL-2, GM-CSF, and LI were the only cytokines that were significantly affected (Fig. 1h). The concentrations of F, IL-4, and IL-7 tended not to increase significantly in aged mice. Although some of these (GM-CSF, IL-2) are also reduced by CASIN, many Tocainine concentrations were not altered by aging or CASIN treatment (Fig. 3).

[0262] CpG (5'-C-phosphate-G) in the Prima1, Hsf4, and Kcns1 genes DNA methylation status at -3' is a predictor of biological age in C57BL / 6 mice Therefore, DNA methylation profiling of these CpGs This C57BL / 6 mouse model has been investigated as a biological epigenetic clock. A panel of screened DNA methylation markers was analyzed in CASIN-treated aged animals. When applied to blood cells after 9 weeks, epigenetic age predictions were timed to match those of aged control animals. Instead, we observed that the Cdc42-specific inhibitors no longer correlated with lineage age. Treatment with α-glucan resulted in a predicted biological age that was on average 9 weeks younger than the mice's chronological age ( Therefore, mice treated with Cdc42-specific inhibitors (e.g., CASIN) Without being bound by any theory, the authors conclude that the observed changes in aged CASIN-treated mice These findings indicate epigenetic changes that may influence the increased lifespan observed.

[0263] In addition, obesity, metabolic syndrome, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, cancer, depression, and Alzheimer's Many age-related diseases, such as sarcopenia, share an inflammatory etiology, and activation of inflammatory pathways contributes to sarcopenia. Without being bound by theory, these The elevated levels of interferon gamma detected in the experiment are characteristic of maintaining youth. Similarly, interleukin-1α and interleukin-2α may be functionally related to lifespan. Both leukin-1β and leukin-1β are associated with many age-related phenotypes and diseases. Regarding IL-9, which showed increased serum concentrations after treatment, IL-9 is mainly a T helper 9 It is a pleiotropic cytokine produced by Th9 cells and is expressed by lymphocytes, mast cells, and exerts documented effects on resident lung cells. Without being bound by any theory, The data presented here support the role of high concentrations of these cytokines in regulating lifespan. The data further suggest a role for Prima1, Hsf4, and K in blood cells. The methylation status of CpG sites within the cns1 gene is strongly correlated with biological age, and C57BL / 6 mice and has been shown to function as a validated biomarker of aging.

[0264] As mentioned above, the data herein support the decline in Cdc42 activity in aged mice. Here we show that CASIN actually extends lifespan. Inhibition of mTOR by rapamycin and inhibition of mTOR by rapamycin are already quite late in life (over 75 weeks of age). administered and only temporarily (only 4 days for CASIN and 90 days for rapamycin) The only reported pharmacological treatment that significantly affects the lifespan of mice when administered daily (days) This is because the mechanism of action of CDC42-specific inhibitors is that they are usually administered early in life. and / or other life-span measures provided continuously over an extended period to achieve significant benefits. This indicates that it is different from pharmacological interventions for

[0265] Example 2 The experimental setup for the vaccination response experiment is shown in Figure 5(A). C57BL / 6 mice (referred to as "aged" in the results) and 12- to 16-week-old mice (referred to as "aged" in the results). In this study, mice (called "young") were given a desired dose (e.g., 25 mg / kg) of Cdc42-specific Inhibitors (e.g., CASIN) or vehicle (referred to as "vehicle" in the results) as controls Mice were injected intraperitoneally ("IP") every 24 hours for 4 days. On day 5, mice were treated with 5-fluorouracil. The mice were treated with Rasil ("5-FU"). Two methods of vaccination were investigated.

[0266] For DNA vaccination: 12 weeks after transplantation, recipient mice were infected with hepatitis B virus. The mice were immunized with pCI / cDNA encoding the hepatitis B virus (HBV) core antigen. The results of DNA vaccination with HBV core antigen 13 days after the immunization and ovalbumin ( "Ova" specific immune response. Interferon gamma positive CD3 + CD8 + Analyze the frequency of T cells, which is an established parameter for the success of DNA vaccination protocols. As shown in Figure 5(B), all mice were immunized with HBV core antigen. Post-vaccination interferon-gamma positive CD3 + CD8 + The frequency of T cells was increased. Aged mice treated with ASIN showed a statistically significant increase in immune response. n = 1 experiment *p<0.05 Aged vehicle vs. Aged CASIN. Figure 5(C) , splenic K b / C 93-100 -Dimer + CD8 + T cell frequency and HBV core antigen These T cell frequencies were determined by flow cytometry 13 days after immunization with It is a direct measure of antigen-specific T cells. Aged mice treated with CASIN showed a higher number of antigen-specific T cells. The results showed a statistically significant increase in target T cells. n = at least 3 per experiment. *p<0.05 Aged Solvent vs. Aged CASIN.

[0267] For viral vaccination, animals were given an intramuscular injection 12 weeks after CASIN treatment. Inactivated influenza virus (10 μg H3N2 + 10 μL Al(OH)3) The animals were immunized twice at an interval of 4 weeks with the second vaccine. The antibody titers were measured using ELISA technology. The results were obtained from serum samples taken 21 days after vaccination. n = at least 3 per experiment. As shown in Figure 5(D), this was compared to vehicle-treated aged mice as a control cohort. The results show that the antibody titer in aged mice treated with CASIN is increased. Aged mice treated with CASIN showed significantly higher phenotypes than young mice, regardless of CASIN treatment within that cohort. This suggests that the antibody titers were approximately equivalent to those seen in older mice.
