    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the finding that microRNA-146 plays a role modulating the innate immune response. Innate immunity receptor signaling can be modulated by delivery of microRNA-146 (miR-146) or antisense miR-146 to target immune cells. In some embodiments, IL-1 receptor associated kinase 1 (IRAK1) and TNF receptor associated factor 6 (TRAF6) expression levels are downregulated in a target cell by administering a miR-146 oligonucleotide. Modulation of the innate immune system through miR-146 can be used to treat a variety of diseases and disorders associated with activation of the innate immune system, such as sepsis and Crohn's disease.

    Abstract: The invention provides systems and methods for the generation of lymphocytes having a unique antigen specificity. In a preferred embodiment, the invention provides methods of virally infecting cells from bone marrow with one or more viral vectors that encode antigen-specific antibodies for the production of, for example B cells and T cells. In some embodiments, the viral vectors include an IRES or 2A element to promote separation of, for example, the α subunit and β subunit of a T cell receptor (TCR) or heavy and light chains of a B-cell antibody. The resulting lymphocytes, express the particular antibody that was introduced in the case of B cells and TCR in the case of T cells. The lymphocytes generated can be used for a variety of therapeutic purposes including the treatment of various cancers and the generation of a desired immune response to viruses and other pathogens. The resulting cells develop normally and respond to antigen both in vitro and in vivo. We also show that it is possible to modify the function of lymphocytes by using stem cells from different genetic backgrounds. Thus our system constitutes a powerful tool to generate desired lymphocyte populations both for research and therapy. Future applications of this technology may include treatments for infectious diseases, such as HIV/AIDS, cancer therapy, allergy, and autoimmune disease.
