Mesenchymal stem cells (e.g., mesenchymal stromal stem cells and stromal cells) have been shown to have therapeutic value in treating a variety of diseases. These cells have been found to associate with arterioles, sinusoidal endothelium and high endothelial vesicles in vivo, where they can control endothelial cell activation and the trafficking of immune cells from the vasculature into target tissues. In addition mesenchymal stem cells have been shown to have immunosuppressive and anti-inflammatory properties such as avoiding allogeneic rejection and of inhibition immune cells, such as natural killer cells, neutrophils, dendritic cells, monocyte/macrophages and lymphocytes. Furthermore, mesenchymal stem cells have been found to produce immunosuppressing cytokines such as hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), IL-10, TGFβ1, cyclooxygenase 1 and 2, Syndecan-2 and PGE-2. The immunosuppressive activity of mesenchymal stem cells has been found to be increased in the presence of inflammatory stimuli, specifically interferon-gamma. These properties make mesenchymal stem cells and derivatives thereof (e.g., mesenchymal stromal stem cells, stromal cells, and exosomes produced by mesenchymal stem cells) particularly intriguing in their potential to treat disease.

The novel features of the invention are set forth with particularity in the specification and appended claims. Further understanding of the features and advantages of the present invention will be obtained by reference to the following detailed description that sets forth illustrative embodiments, in which the principles of the invention are utilized, and the accompanying drawings of which:
Stromal stem cells or mesenchymal stromal cells have shown therapeutic value, for example, in their ability to migrate to the site of tissue injury and relative ease of in vitro expansion. In particular SDC2+ stromal stem cells have shown efficacy in treatment of a wide range of diseases. Alternative methods of preparing SDC2+ stromal stem cells are disclosed herein, wherein isolation of SDC2+ stromal stem cells is based on expression of CD39.
CD39 and CD39L3 are apyrase enzymes. Apyrase enzymes cleave phosphate groups from ATP and ADP to yield AMP and phosphate. More generally speaking, apyrase enzymes are extracellular nucleosidases, which mediate catabolism of extracellular nucleotides, such as ATP and ADP. CD39 and CD39L3 cell surface expression often correlates with SDC2+ cell surface expression, such that CD39 or CD39L3 is effective as a marker cell surface protein for isolation of SDC2+ stromal stem cells. Extracellular nucleosideases, in some cases, mediate catabolism of extracellular ATP and ADP to AMP, which is further degraded to adenosine. CD73 often degrades AMP to adenosine. Additional examples of extracellular nucleosidases include CD39L1, CD39L2, and CD39L4. As ATP and ADP act antagonistically to free adenosine outside of the cell to mediate a number of responses including cell differentiation and inflammation, CD39, CD39 homologues, and even structurally diverse, functionally analogous enzymes may have a common impact on extracellular ATP signaling.
In some cases, apyrases, such as extracellular nucleosidases, are attached to a cell via a transmembrane domain. In some cases, extracellular nucleosidases are soluble proteins outside the cell. Apyrase activity is effected through full length proteins or, alternately, through proteins having an apyrase extracellular domain or an extracellular domain sharing sequence, structural similarity or functional similarity to an apyrase, so as to commonly modulate ATP or ADP concentration relative to adenosine or extracellular purine concentration.

The other mammalian cell combined SDC2+ stromal stem cells are in some cases regulatory T cells, such as CD25+ regulatory T cells, CD4+ regulatory T cells, FoxP3+ regulatory T cells, CD25+CD4+FoxP3+ regulatory T cells, or combinations thereof.
Compositions comprising a wide range of CD39+, SDC2+, or SDC2+CD39+ stromal stem cells are disclosed herein. Some compositions comprise SDC2+ stromal stem cells in a therapeutically effective amount. In some compositions, the amount of SDC2+ stromal stem cells ranges from 10{circumflex over ( )}3-10{circumflex over ( )}8 SDC2+ stromal stem cells, for example 10{circumflex over ( )}3, 10{circumflex over ( )}4, 10{circumflex over ( )}5, 10{circumflex over ( )}6, 10{circumflex over ( )}7, or 10{circumflex over ( )}8 SDC2+ stromal stem cells, or more SDC2+ stromal stem cells in the composition. SDC2+ stromal stem cell compositions, in some cases, are concentrated to be diluted by the individual or the health care provider prior to administration. In some cases, SDC2+ stromal stem cell compositions are diluted and ready to be administered by the individual or health care provider. In some cases, SDC2+ stromal stem cell compositions are contained in single use vials, syringes, or IV bags. In some cases, multiple doses are present in a single container.
A therapeutically active CD39+, SDC2+, or SDC2+CD39+ stromal stem cell composition disclosed herein, in some cases, comprises an immunosuppressive drug. Immunosuppressive drugs contemplated herein include but are not limited to a glucocorticoid, a cytostatic, an antibody, an immunophilin inhibitor, cyclosporin, tacrolimus, sirolimus and interferon, an opioid, a TNF binding protein, a cyclooxygenase inhibitor, an antihistamine, an antimetabolite, folic acid, methotrexate, a purine analogue, a pyrimidine analogue, a protein synthesis inhibitor, mycophenolate, a cytotoxic antibiotic, a steroid, an anti-TNF antibody, a TNF inhibitor, and an NSAID. Some SDC2+ stromal stem cell compositions comprise anti-TNF antibodies, including but not limited to infliximab, adalimumab, certolizumab, and golimumab. SDC2+ stromal stem cell compositions comprise TNF inhibitors including but not limited to etanercept, xanthine derivatives, and bupropion. In some cases, SDC2+ stromal stem cell compositions comprise at least one NSAID. In some cases, SDC2+ stromal stem cell compositions comprise at least one steroid.
Exosome Compositions
Provided herein are compositions, such as therapeutically active, compositions comprising exosomes, for example in vitro exosomes, such as SDC2+ exosomes, bound to a CD39 binding agent. In some cases the exosomes comprise components that mediate, effect or inhibit paracrine signaling. In some cases, at least 20% of the exosomes in the composition are SDC2+ or comprise SDC2. In some cases at least 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 95%, 99%, or more of the exosomes comprise SDC2. In some cases at least 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 95%, 99%, or more of the exosomes comprise CD39. SDC2, in some instances is found on the surface of the exosome. In some instances, SDC2 is found at the interior of the exosome. The proportion of exosomes in the composition comprising SDC2 is determined by immunofluorescence, for example flow cytometry, electron microscopy, or other suitable method.
CD39 binding agents herein, in some cases, comprise antibodies, such as anti-CD39 antibodies. In some cases, antibodies are raised against a CD39 antigen. In some cases, antibodies comprise a variable domain that specifically binds to at least one mammalian CD39 protein. In some cases, antibodies specifically bind to at least one of a human, a mouse, a rat, or an equine CD39 protein. In some cases, the antibody is conjugated to a fluorophore. In some cases, the antibody is conjugated to a bead.
SDC2 refers to a gene encoding the syndecan-2 protein (also frequently referred to herein and elsewhere in the art as SDC2). Syndecan-2, or ‘the SDC2 protein’ or simply SDC2, is a transmembrane type I heparin sulfate proteoglycan. Additional synonyms for syndecan-2, aside from ‘the SDC2 protein’ or SDC2, include HSPG, CD362, HSPG1, and SYND2. Generally, as used herein SDC2 refers to the protein or a recognizable fragment thereof unless otherwise indicated, for example by reciting ‘the SDC2 gene,’ ‘the SDC2 transcript,’ ‘an SDC2 antibody.’ Additionally, SDC2 is identified by its polypeptide sequence in the sequence listing that accompanies this specification.
SDC2 has three domains: an extracellular domain at amino acids 19-144, a transmembrane domain at amino acids 145-169, and a cytoplasmic domain at amino acids 170-201. SDC2 has been implicated in the mediation of cell binding, cell signaling, and cytoskeletal organization. SDC2 has been demonstrated to be necessary for internalization of HIV-1 TAT protein.
While exosome compositions described herein, in some cases, are derived from cells, the exosome compositions do not necessarily comprise living cells. Cell-free exosome compositions, therefore, are non-tumorigenic, that is, they do not increase the susceptibility of a subject to developing a tumor or cancer, because they do not comprise cells capable of differentiating into tumor cells. In alternative compositions, the exosomes are supplemented with cells, such as mesenchymal stromal cells, that contribute to anti-inflammatory activity or paracrine signaling activity of the compositions.
Exosome compositions disclosed herein retain potency or activity, such as paracrine signaling activity, after being frozen or cryopreserved, often without the use of a cryoprotectant. Cryoprotectants include DMSO, glycerol, polyethylene glycol, propylene glycol, glycerine, polyvinylpyrolidone, sorbitol, dextran, trehalose, and commercial formulations such as CryoStor from Biolife solutions. The exosome compositions also retain potency after being frozen without using special freezing protocols. Special freezing protocols include flash freezing, programmable rate freezer, and freezing in an insulated container. A benefit of the durability of the exosome compositions is that they are more easily frozen and are frozen without cryoprotectants, resulting in compositions that are more durable, more easily and cheaply made, and less likely to suffer from batch variation resulting from loss of activity due to a defect in freezing protocol or composition. The exosome compositions are in some cases frozen in buffer or culture media. Buffers include physiologically acceptable buffers such as phosphate buffer, histidine buffer, citrate buffer, acetate buffer, Hypothermasol from Biolife Solutions and other suitable buffers. In some cases exosome compositions disclosed herein are lyophilized.
Exosome compositions disclosed herein are formulated in a physiologically acceptable buffer and in some cases supplemented by at least one excipient. Non-limiting examples of excipients include sucrose, trehalose, polyethylene glycol, a polysaccharide, a carrier protein, an inert protein, dextran, hydroxyl ethyl starch (HETA), PEG-4000, gelatin, PLGA, Eudragit RS 100 Nanoparticles, and combinations thereof. Such exosome compositions are stored at a temperature determined to be most stable (i.e., wherein the exosome composition retains highest potency, or retains potency for the longest period of time, or otherwise optimizes a desired trait). In some cases, addition of at least one excipient allows the composition to retain potency, such as paracrine signaling potency, when stored at a higher temperature than otherwise would be possible.
Some exosome compositions such as paracrine signaling exosome compositions disclosed herein, in some cases, comprise in vitro exosomes and SDC2+ mesenchymal stem cells (e.g., mesenchymal stromal stem cells isolated based upon expression of CD39). The cells combined to in vitro exosomes are in some cases regulatory T cells, such as CD25+ regulatory T cells, CD4+ regulatory T cells, FoxP3+ regulatory T cells, CD25+CD4+FoxP3+ regulatory T cells, or combinations thereof. In some instances, exosome compositions comprise in vitro exosomes, SDC2+ mesenchymal stem cells (e.g., SDC2+ mesenchymal stromal stem cells isolated based upon expression of CD39), and regulatory T cells (e.g., regulatory T cells isolated based upon expression of CD39).
Compositions comprising a wide range of exosomes are disclosed herein. Some compositions comprise exosomes in a therapeutically effective amount. In some compositions, the amount of exosomes ranges from 106-108 exosomes, for example 106, 107, 108, or more exosomes in the composition. In some cases, a therapeutically effective amount of exosomes ranges from 1 μg to 700 mg of exosomes, for example 1 μg, 10 μg, 20 μg, 50 μg, 100 μg, 150 μg, 200 μg, 250 μg, 500 μg, 750 μg, 1 mg, 2 mg, 3 mg, 4 mg, 5 mg, 6 mg, 7 mg, 10 mg, 20 mg, 50 mg, 100 mg, 200 mg, 300 mg, 400 mg, 500 mg, 600 mg, 700 mg, or more exosomes in the composition. Exosome compositions, in some cases, are concentrated to be diluted by the individual prior to administration. In some cases, exosome compositions are diluted and ready to be administered by the individual. In some cases, exosome compositions are contained in single use vials or syringes. In some cases, multiple doses are present in a single container.
Some exosome compositions disclosed herein comprise additional proteins, such as proteins that contribute to therapeutic efficacy, or that mediate paracrine signaling to effect therapeutic efficacy. Proteins include but in some cases are not limited to IL-12, suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS), p53, PTEN, CD52, TSC1, FOXP3, Soluble Immune Response Suppressor (SIRS), TGFB, CD39L3, CD73, and Maspin. In some cases, exosomes comprise at least one of protein selected from the list consisting of UBA6, ESYT2, SSCSD, STMN1, STMN2, PRNP, VEGFA, ADD1, NBL1, MINOS1-NBL1, XIRP2, VPS37C, MARS, BST1,

Definitions
In some cases “exosomes” or “microvesicles” used interchangeably herein include cell-derived vesicles, which are released into the extracellular environment by a cell, for example a cultured cell or a cultured stromal cell.
“SDC2,” also known as syndecan-2, CD362, S2, or fibroglycan, refers generally herein to the SDC2 polypeptide specified by the sequence listing, or the polypeptide encoded by the SDC2 locus. Syndecan-2, or ‘the SDC2 protein’ or simply SDC2, is a transmembrane type I heparin sulfate proteoglycan. Additional synonyms for syndecan-2, aside from ‘the SDC2 protein’ or SDC2, include HSPG, CD362, HSPG1, and SYND2. Generally, as used herein SDC2 refers to the protein or a recognizable fragment thereof unless otherwise indicated, for example by reciting ‘the SDC2 gene,’ ‘the SDC2 transcript,’ ‘an SDC2 antibody.’ Additionally, SDC2 is identified by its polypeptide sequence in the sequence listing that accompanies this specification. An SDC2 fragment refers to any set of consecutive residues of SDC2 that uniquely or recognizably map to the SDC2 polypeptide sequence. In some cases an SDC2 fragment retains some or all activity of the SDC2 protein, or acts as an inhibitor of full length or native SDC2. SDC2 also occasionally refers informally herein to the locus or gene encoding the SDC2 protein. In the event that one of skill in the art is unable to distinguish an SDC2 reference, it is presumed that the term is used herein in reference to the protein or polypeptide rather than to the gene, transcript, or an antibody raised against or binding to SDC2. There is a family of syndecan proteins in mammals. SDC2 is used alternately in reference to a mammalian syndecan-2 or to human SDC2 specifically. In the event that one of skill in the art is unable to distinguish an SDC2 reference, it is presumed that the term is used herein in reference to the human protein or polypeptide.

Human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), such as SDC2+ MSCs are grown in a C2011 cartridge (FiberCell Systems), or alternatively in a Terumo Quantum Cell Expansion System, seeded with 1×107 to 1×108 MSCs. It continuously produces exosomes for 10 weeks. The typical harvest from the extracapillary space of the cartridge is 1.1×1012 exosomes/ml in a volume of 400 ml. The total bioreactor yield or exosomes by number is approximately 10-fold higher at a concentration that was 10-fold higher. Harvests are performed every two weeks, and prior to each harvest, small samples of cells are collected for phenotypic analysis. During these 10 weeks, the culture does not expand based on glucose uptake rate, which remains fairly constant. By orthogonal measure, the phenotype of the cells remains constant as well. Exosomes are continuously harvested without splitting and/or subculturing of the cells.
An immuno-modulatory signal is delivered to the intracellular space of an individual using exosomes isolated from SDC2+ stem cells. The exosomes are formulated to contain infliximab. The exosomes are administered to the individual subcutaneously and the contents of the exosome are delivered to the intracellular space of the individual, thereby delivering the immuno-modulatory signal. Administration of the exosomes and delivery of the immuno-modulatory signal does not result in a humoral immune response by the individual to the infliximab, thereby increasing the potency of the infliximab.

Briefly, 300 g Sprague Dawley rats were given an intrapulmonary dose of E. coli to induce ARDS lung injury, one hour later, the rats were treated with an intravenous dose of 200 μg or 10 mill/kg human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC). The extent of lung injury was then measured 24 hours later by measurement of arterial oxygen, BAL bacterial load, BAL cell infiltration, static compliance, and a lung wet dry ratio. An improvement in arterial FI 0.3 was observed by treatment with exosomes compared to vehicle (one way anova p<0.0001) (
Static lung compliance was also measured in rats treated with exosomes or hMSC compared to PBS vehicle control (

This example shows exosome administration with an increased dose and intravenous mode of administration treats ARDS lung injury.
A therapeutically active in vitro SDC2+ exosome composition is used to treat an individual suffering from kidney failure related to diabetes. After administration of the composition to the subject, the symptoms experienced by the patient are decreased. When 10 patients are given the intrathecal injections of the composition, 9 experience marked increase in kidney function. When 10 patients are given an alternative treatment, the kidney function is not improved. No impact upon blood glucose levels is observed in some individuals.
A therapeutically active in vitro SDC2+ exosome composition is used to treat an individual suffering from Alzheimer's disease. After administration of the composition to the subject by intravenous administration, the composition is able to cross the blood brain barrier and treat the brain and Alzheimer's disease symptoms are decreased. When 10 patients are given the intravenous injection of the composition, 9 experience an improvement in memory.
A SDC2+ stromal stem cell composition is isolated from a human umbillical cord using a CD39 antibody. The composition further comprises CD25+ FoxP3+ regulatory T cells. One third of the cells are transduced with a lentivirus to overexpress CD39, one third of the cells are transduced with a lentivirus to overexpress CD39L3, and one third of the cells are transduced with a lentivirus with no transgene. The SDC2+ stromal stem cell compositions transduced with CD39 or CD39L3 are more effective in inhibition an inflammatory response as measured in a NFκB reporter assay than SDC2+ stromal stem cell compositions transduced with a lentivirus with no transgene. This example shows that SDC2+ stromal stem cell compositions have greater anti-inflammatory activity when transduced with CD39 or CD39L3.
