Experiment: AAV2/2 transduction efficiencies in kidney organoids cultured under flow determined by FACS
PI: Ryuji Morizane, MD, PhD
Description: Human kidney orgnaoids generated from human ES and iPS cells are used to evaluate tropism of AAV2 that expresses eGFP under CMV promoter. Organoids are exposed to AAVs at MOI 10^5 from differentiation day 22 to 23. Four culture conditions are tested: full flow on a chip, pulsed flow on a chip, no flow on a chip, U-well suspension culture. Flow cytometry is performed to quantify the transduction efficiency in LTL+ proximal tubules. U-well culture shows the highest transduction efficiency among those four conditions.
Delivery Assays:
- Calculated transduction efficiency by flow cytometry of GFP+ cells out of total cells
- Calculated transduction efficiency by flow cytometry of GFP+ cells out of LTL+ cells.
