Intraarticular gene transfer with adeno-associated viral (AAV) vectors may allow efficient therapeutic transgene expression within the joint in diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA), allowing high expression of the protein within the joint, preventing both systemic diffusion and side effects. However, humans demonstrate antibodies against AAV, which can influence gene transfer. To better understand critical obstacles to intraarticular gene therapy with AAV, we have previously shown that synovial fluid (SF) contains IgG to AAV that neutralizes chondrocyte infection in vitro. Our objective was therefore to compare neutralization exerted by SF from RA patients for four different AAV serotypes (AAV serotypes 1, 2, 5, and 8) on human primary synoviocytes. Serotype 2 infected synoviocytes most efficiently followed, in decreasing order, by serotypes 1, 5, and 8. SF from all patients partially inhibited infection of synoviocytes by at least one of the four serotypes. Infection with serotypes 1 and 2 was the most inhibited by SF, whereas inhibition was weak for serotypes 5 and 8. Last, we have shown that inhibition of AAV1/interleukin (IL)-4 infection of synoviocytes by SF could be reversed by increasing the number of AAV1/IL-4 particles, with a dose-dependent effect. We conclude that the most infectious AAV serotypes (I and 2) in synoviocytes are also the serotypes most neutralized by SF. Thus, serotype 5 seems to demonstrate the best infection efficiency: immunogenicity ratio for local use in articular diseases. These data may be useful for tailoring intraarticular AAV-mediated gene therapy to individual patients.
