Introduction
Hemophilia A is an X-linked recessive bleeding disorder (Morvarid Moayeri et al. 2004).
Introduction
Hemophilia A is characterized by inability to clot blood because of FVIII gene mutations and deficiency of this coagulation factor (Follenzi et al. 2012).
3D structure of FVIII, PDB ID: 2R7E
Severe bleedingJoint injury
FVIII injectionCurrently, Hemophilia A is treated by administration of plasma derived or recombinant FVIII, but this strategy is complicated by the development of inhibitory antibodies (Diego Zanolini et al. 2015). These so-called inhibitors may jeopardize the patient’s life and make therapeutic management more complex, and costly(Thierry Calvez et al. 2014).
Inhibitors
[1] Recombinant canine B-domain deleted FVIII exhibits high specific activity and is safe in the canine hemophilia A model. Denise et al. Blood. 2009.
[2] Minimal modification in the factor VIII B-domain sequence ameliorates the murine hemophilia A phenotype. Joshua et al. Blood. 2013.
[3] Reduction of the inhibitory antibody response to human factor VIII in hemophilia A mice by mutagenesis of the A2 domain B-cell epitope. Ernest et al. Blood. 2004
[4] Noncovalent stabilization of the factor VIII A2 domain enhances efficacyin hemophilia A mouse vascular injury models.Lilley Leong et al. Blood. 2014.
FVIII Modification
Gene therapy
Naked DNA transfer of Factor VIII induced transgene-specific, species-independent immune response in hemophilia A mice. Mol Ther. Ye et al. 2004.
FVIII disappearance correlated with the generation of high-titer, inhibitory anti-FVIII antibodies.
Inhibitors
Cell therapy
The goal of cell therapy is to introduce long-term expression of therapeutic levels of FVIII in vivo resulting in a cure of the disease .
Where is factor VIII synthesized?
Controversial ! Hepatic and Extrahepatic
Hepatic
1.Liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSEC): Main source
(Everett LA et al, 2014; Fahs SA et al, 2014; Diego Zanolini et al, 2015)
2. Hepatocytes and Küpffer cells: Low level
(Diego Zanolini et al 2015)
Extrahepatic
1. Peripheral or cord blood derived cells, including:
(1) Endothelial progenitor/endothelial cells.
(2) Monocytes, macrophages and megakaryocytes from
hematopoietic stem cells.
2. Bone marrow derived cells, including
Monocytes, macrophages and endothelial cells.
These extrahepatic cells could synthesize factor VIII in sufficient amount to ameliorate the bleeding phenotype in hemophilic mice (Diego Zanolini et al 2015)
Cell therapy protocols:
Hepatic and Extrahepatic
Therapy Model:
1. Mouse to mouse
2. Human to mouse
3. Human to human

uPA/SCID mice model This mice model have a feature to develop an active damage
of their own hepatic parenchymal cell, provide a hepatic environment that is more conductive to the engraftment and proliferation of human cells (Tateno et al. 2004; Kohei Tatsumi et al. 2012).

[1] Cord blood hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in an adolescent with haemophilia. Caselli D. Haemophilia. 2012;18(2): 48-49.The authors described that during follow-up the FVIII levels in the plasmaof this patient were increased and that, on the basis of the international classification, the degree of his coagulation defect prior to transplantation qualified him as a severe case whereas after transplant he should be defined as having moderate hemophilia.
[2] Allogeneic bone marrow transplantation in a child with severe aplastic anemia and hemophilia A. Ostronoff M. Bone Marrow Transplant. 2006;37(6):627-628.The FVIII level did not change after transplantation, suggesting that bone marrow does not contribute significantly to FVIII production
