Glucocorticoid hormones promoted the growth of fibroblast cells derived from human neonatal foreskins and prolonged their life span in a microcarrier culture system that used Eagle's minimum essential medium (MEM) supplemented with fetal calf serum (FCS). But, these hormones suppressed cell growth in conventional monolayer cultures. Precolostrum newborn calf serum (PNCS) was the only species that supported the serial propagation of fibroblast cells on microcarriers, possibly because of its high content of hydrocortisone (HC). Fibroblast cells grown on microcarriers in the presence of glucocorticoid hormones maintained their ability to produce interferon (IFN)-beta in a superinduction method with poly I: poly C and antimetabolites. These cells had more than 93% diploidy and no chromosomal aberration or translocation. Use of PNCS for the cultivation of human fibroblast cells has high potential for providing a microcarrier culture system for the mass production of human IFN-beta. 相似文献

We have shown previously that recombinant NS/0 myelomas expressing sufficient amounts of E1B-19K were resistant to apoptosis occurring in the late phase of batch culture and under stressful conditions such as cultivation in glutamine-free medium or following heat shock. However, no significant increase in monoclonal antibodies (MAb) was observed during the prolonged stationary phase of these batch cultures. Here, we show that E1B-19K can enhance cell survival and improve MAb productivity in high cell density perfusion culture. Typically, lymphoid cells grown under steady state in perfusion exhibit decreasing viabilities with concomitant accumulation of apoptotic cells. By modulating the ability of these cells to resist to induction of apoptosis in low nutrient environment, a 3-fold decrease in specific death rate from 0.22 day-1 for NS/0 control to 0.07 day-1 for E1B-19K cells was achieved, resulting in a significant improvement in cell viability throughout perfusion. E1B-19K cells at the perfusion plateau phase also exhibited a 3-fold reduction in specific growth rate concomitant with a lower percentage of S and higher percentage of G1 phase cells. This was associated with a 40% decrease in specific oxygen consumption rate, likely related to a reduction in the specific consumption rates of limiting nutrient(s). Expression of E1B-19K consequently had a significant impact on the steady-state viable cell density, allowing maintenance of 11.5 x 10(6) E1B-19K cells/mL versus 5.9 x 10(6) control NS/0 cells/mL for the same amount of fresh medium brought into the system (half a volume per day). Whereas MAb concentrations found in perfusion culture of control NS/0 myelomas were almost 3-fold higher than those found in batch culture; in the case of E1B-19K-expressing myelomas, the MAb concentration in perfusion was more than 7-fold higher than in batch. This was attributable to the 2-fold increase in viable cell plateau and to a 40% increase in the perfusion to batch ratio of specific MAb productivity (2.2-fold for E1B-19K myelomas versus 1.6-fold for NS/0 control). 相似文献

Use of porous alginate sponges for substantial chondrocyte expansion and matrix production: effects of seeding density 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Autologous cell transplantation is a promising approach for cartilage repair, but the expansion of chondrocytes in a monolayer, a common approach to amplifying the cell number, inevitably leads to cell de-differentiation. To explore whether porous alginate sponges could be utilized for chondrocyte expansion and investigate the effects of seeding densities, the porcine chondrocytes were seeded to porous alginate sponges at low (5 x 10(5) cells per 40 sponges), medium (5 x 10(6) cells per 40 sponges), or high (2 x 10(7) cells per 40 sponges) density. After 4-week perfusion culture, all three groups resulted in chondrocyte proliferation, maintenance of chondrocytic gene (collagen II, Sox 9 and aggrecan) expression, and formation of cell clusters resembling cartilaginous tissues. The higher the seeding density, the higher the final cell density and GAGs production and, accordingly, the larger the cell clusters. Strikingly, the cumulative expansion ratios achieved by the low-density group ( approximately 150-fold) significantly exceeded those achieved by the medium (approximately 21-fold) and high (approximately 4.7-fold) density groups, as well as those achieved using other scaffolds. In conclusion, seeding chondrocytes to the alginate sponges at a low density, combined with perfusion culture, represents a drastic improvement in expanding autologous chondrocytes. 相似文献

The presence of serum in cell culture raises safety problems for the production of biologicals, thus a new serum-free medium (MDSS2) was developed. The evaluation of this medium for the growth of different cell lines (BHK-21 C13, BSR and Vero) has shown that cells grew in this medium similarly to standard serum-containing medium, independently of the culture system used: in static (as monolayer) as well as in agitated systems (in suspension in spinner and perfusion reactors). BHK-21 and BSR cells grew as aggregate cultures and could proliferate in both static and agitated culture systems. Vero cells stayed attached to a substrate and proliferated equally in static and in agitated microcarrier-culture systems. The cell densities obtained with BHK-21 cells depended only on the culture system used. They ranged from 2–3×106 to 6–12×106 cells per ml for static batch and perfusion reactor cultures respectively. The cell concentration was 3 to 6 times higher than in classical cultures performed in serum-containing medium. The cell densities obtained with Vero cells were indistinguishable from those obtained in serum-containing medium, whatever the cell culture system used. These cell lines have been used for the production of rabies virus. With respect to BHK-21 and BSR, similar production rates of rabies glycoprotein have been found as in the standard roller bottle process. The production of rabies virus and of viral glycoprotein by Vero cells cultivated in serum-free medium was augmented 1.5-fold and 2.5-fold, respectively, when compared to serum-containing medium.A recombinant BHK-21 cell line, producing human IL-2, can also proliferate in MDSS2, after addition of insulin. The specific IL-2 production rate was augmented 3–4 fold in comparison to serum-containing medium.For the cells tested, the MDSS2 serum-free medium is a good growth and production medium. Its use for cultivating other cell lines and/or for the production of other biologicals is discussed. 相似文献

This report reviews recent progress in micro carrier technology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. This progress includes new understanding of the nutritional needs of high-cell density micro carrier cultures, the demonstration of cell growth on microcarriers in a hormone-supplemented, serum-free medium, and the continuous cell propagation of epithelial cell types in microcarrier culture by medium modification that permits efficient bead-to bead transfer. Also, a technique for obtaining large quantities of mitotic cells by selective detachment from microcarriers is reported. Finally, recent progress in interferon production from human foreskin fibroblasts grown on microcarriers is outlined: Our improvements in the interferon “super induction” process have increased the interferon yield per cell fivefold to tenfold. 相似文献

The primary advantage of an inducible promoter expression system is that production of the recombinant protein can be biochemically controlled, allowing for the separation of unique growth and production phases of the culture. During the growth phase, the culture is rapidly grown to high cell density prior to induction without the extra metabolic burden of exogenous protein production, thus minimizing the nonproductive period of the culture. Induction of the culture at high cell density ensures that the volumetric production will be maximized. In this work, we have demonstrated the feasibility of overexpressing a reporter glycoprotein from the inducible MMTV promoter in recombinant Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells cultured in a high cell density perfusion bioreactor system. Retention of suspension-adapted CHO cells was achieved by inclined sedimentation. To maximize volumetric production of the culture, we have demonstrated that high cell density must be achieved prior to induction. This operating scheme resulted in a 10-fold increase in volumetric titer over the low density induction culture, corresponding directly to a 10-fold increase in viable cell density during the highly productive period of the culture. The amount of glycoprotein produced in this high cell density induction culture during 26 days was 84-fold greater than that produced in a week long batch bioreactor. Long-term perfusion cultures of the recombinant cell line showed a production instability, a phenomenon that is currently being investigated. 相似文献

Primary cell cultures as well as established lines have been grown on a recently developed microcarrier configuration that overcomes the problem of toxicity attendant on earlier developments in this technology. Virus yields from these cells propagated on the new microcarriers have been measured. Microcarrier-grown cells, when compared to roller-bottle-grown cells, gave virus yields on a per-cell basis that varied from slightly greater with the Sindbis virus-Chinese hamster ovary cells and polio-WI-38 combinations to approximately one-third with Moloney murine leukemia virus-Cl-1 mouse cells and vesicular stomatitis virus-chicken embryo fibroblasts. Yields ranged from 8.0 X 10(7) to 3.6 X 10(8) cells per 100-ml microcarrier culture and from 3.7 X 10(7) to 4.1 X 20(8) cells per roller-bottle culture. Secondary chicken embryo fibroblast yields were approximately four times as great in microcarrier cultures as in standard roller-bottle cultures, per unit volume of medium consumed. In spite of the reduced virus yields per cell seen in some instances, the greater cellular productivity of microcarrier cultures appears to hold great promise for large-scale virus production. Optimizing microcarrier conditions for specific cell-virus systems should result in improved yields. 相似文献

The production of prourokinase (PUK) by a human kidney tumor cell line is studied in long term cultures. Cells are grown on microcarriers which are retained inside the reactor by sedimentation or with a spin filter. Two modes of operation are compared: feed harvest at an average medium exchange rate of 0.3 d(-1) and continuous perfusion at a higher dilution rate of 1.5 d(-1). In the two systems a stable production of PUK has been maintained for more than 400 h. Kinetics of cellular growth, nutrient consumption, and metabolite and PUK excretion are similar. After an initial rapid growth period, one observes a 10-fold reduction in all the cellular metabolic activities during the stationary phase. Continuous perfusion yields a higher cell density (7 x 10(6) cells.mL(-1)) than feed harvest (3 x 10(6) cells.mL(-1)), which results in a twofold increase in the reactor productivity. But higher final enzyme activities, about 250 ru.mL(-1), are obtained in the feed harvest recovered medium than in the perfusion medium, 100-150 ru.mL(-1). The cumulative medium consumption per mass of product is the same in the repeated batch and in the continuous operation mode. 相似文献

Two strains of human foreskin fibroblast cells were incapable of sustained growth in a matrix perfusion culture system, possibly because of their inability to attach to the fiber surfaces. Addition of microcarrier beads to the extracapillary space allowed attaining high cell densities in excess of 10(7) cells per culture unit. Microcarrier beads were tested in hollow fiber culture devices containing membranes of 10(4) or 10(5) D nominal porosities. Best results were obtained when initial cell densities of at least (2-3) x 10(6) cells were used in units with 10(5) D pore size membranes and DEAE-Sephadex or polyacryl-amide microcarrier beads in the extracapillary space. This extension of the matrix perfusion system should be useful for growing other anchorage dependent cells while retaining the advantages of perfusion culture. 相似文献

A novel wave bioreactor-perfusion culture system was developed for highly efficient production of monoclonal antibody IgG2a (mAb) by hybridoma cells. The system consists of a wave bioreactor, a floating membrane cell-retention filter, and a weight-based perfusion controller. A polyethylene membrane filter with a pore size of 7 microm was floating on the surface of the culture broth for cell retention, eliminating the need for traditional pump around flow loops and external cell separators. A weight-based perfusion controller was designed to balance the medium renewal rate and the harvest rate during perfusion culture. BD Cell mAb Medium (BD Biosciences, CA) was identified to be the optimal basal medium for mAb production during batch culture. A control strategy for perfusion rate (volume of fresh medium/working volume of reactor/day, vvd) was identified as a key factor affecting cell growth and mAb accumulation during perfusion culture, and the optimal control strategy was increasing perfusion rate by 0.15 vvd per day. Average specific mAb production rate was linearly corrected with increasing perfusion rate within the range of investigation. The maximum viable cell density reached 22.3 x 105 and 200.5 x 105 cells/mL in the batch and perfusion culture, respectively, while the corresponding maximum mAb concentration reached 182.4 and 463.6 mg/L and the corresponding maximum total mAb amount was 182.4 and 1406.5 mg, respectively. Not only the yield of viable cell per liter of medium (32.9 x 105 cells/mL per liter medium) and the mAb yield per liter of medium (230.6 mg/L medium) but also the mAb volumetric productivity (33.1 mg/L.day) in perfusion culture were much higher than those (i.e., 22.3 x 105 cells/mL per liter medium, 182.4 mg/L medium, and 20.3 mg/L.day) in batch culture. Relatively fast cell growth and the perfusion culture approach warrant that high biomass and mAb productivity may be obtained in such a novel perfusion culture system (1 L working volume), which offers an alternative approach for producing gram quantity of proteins from industrial cell lines in a liter-size cell culture. The fundamental information obtained in this study may be useful for perfusion culture of hybridoma cells on a large scale. 相似文献

The relationship between cell density and protein content per cell was examined in monolayer and suspension cultures of mouse L cells. In monolayer cultures, the protein content per cell reached a maximum at 6 h after plating and retained this level for 18 h. Thereafter, the protein content per cell declined gradually during the exponential growth phase and finally returned to the initial level at the stationary phase. The changes were neither due to the effect of trypsinization nor to the exhaustion of the medium. The protein content per cell in a sparse culture was always greater than that in a dense culture for monolayer culture of L cells. In suspension culture the increase of protein content per cell during the lag phase was similar to that found in monolayer cultures. However, the gradual decline of protein content per cell observed during the exponential phase of monolayer cultures was not detected during that of a suspension culture. The results suggest that the decrease of protein content per cell in monolayer cultures may be related to some function of cell plasma membrane which could be inhibited by a cell-to-cell contact. 相似文献

A perfusion system which utilizes a porous ceramic core has been tested for the cultivation of transformed BHK cells which produce human transferrin. A design is presented in which cells are immobilized within the porous ceramic particle and are fed by continuous perfusion of batch liquid medium. It was found that more than 5×109 BHK cells could be supported within the 40 mL ceramic matrix, a ten-fold increase in cell density per unit surface area over the standard roller bottle cultures or a five-fold increase in volumetric cell density over suspension cultures. The cell specific productivity of human transferrin was similar to that observed in suspension culture. The system offers the advantages of significant reduction in serum requirements and the potential for scale-up. 相似文献

We examined the ability of transformed Escherichia coli cells in fermentor cultures to accumulate interleukin-2 (IL-2) intracellularly under temperature-regulated control of the phage lambda pL promoter. Induction of expression was undertaken at different culture optical densities, and specific IL-2 accumulation was found to decrease with increasing cell density at induction. Induction at higher culture optical densities was also accompanied by decreased growth during induction and increased acetate accumulation in the culture medium. Experiments were undertaken to study the effect of replacing spent medium by perfusion with fresh medium both before induction and during IL-2 expression at high cell density. Improved IL-2 expression was seen only when perfusion was continued past 1.6 h after the start of induction, and it was accompanied by a significant reduction in acetate buildup. Further improvements were not seen when perfusion was continued beyond hour 3 of induction. Replenishing medium components and decreasing the concentration of diffusible inhibitors before induction did not alleviate acetate buildup, growth limitation, or limitation of IL-2 synthesis. These results suggested that accumulation of diffusible inhibitors such as acetate during induction may be a significant factor limiting IL-2 expression in high-density cultures, but other factors intrinsic to the organism or the protein also played a major role. 相似文献

The development of gene therapy is hampered by the difficulty of producing large stocks of retroviral vectors at high titer. This study aimed to improve culture conditions and to intensify the production of retroviruses by FLYRD18, a packaging cell line derived from the HT1080 human fibrosarcoma line. Batch virus production proved to be feasible in unsupplemented basal medium and provided significantly higher titers and productivities than medium supplemented with 10% serum. For longer-term production, however, AIM-V complete serum-free medium and basal medium supplemented with 2% serum gave superior results. Serum supplementation should nevertheless be optimized to take into account the presence of inhibitors of viral production. In monolayer cultures with 0.2 mL/cm(2), the cell concentration was increased up to 2 x 10(6) cells/mL without loss of cell productivity. A semicontinuous production process, which enables the collection of larger amounts of viruses from the same culture, has also been successfully used. Suspension culture processes were prevented by the anchorage dependency of the FLYRD18 cell line. Microcarrier cultures were able to produce viruses but will require further investigation and optimization for their performance to become competitive with monolayer cultures. In the course of this study, more than a 10-fold increase of titer has been achieved. 相似文献

Continuous upstream processing in mammalian cell culture for recombinant protein production holds promise to increase product yield and quality. To facilitate the design and optimization of large-scale perfusion cultures, suitable scale-down mimics are needed which allow high-throughput experiments to be performed with minimal raw material requirements. Automated microbioreactors are available that mimic batch and fed-batch processes effectively but these have not yet been adapted for perfusion cell culture. This article describes how an automated microbioreactor system (ambr15) can be used to scale-down perfusion cell cultures using cell sedimentation as the method for cell retention. The approach accurately predicts the viable cell concentration, in the range of about 1 × 107 cells/mL for a human cell line, and cell viability of larger scale cultures using a hollow fiber based cell retention system. While it was found to underpredict cell line productivity, the method accurately predicts product quality attributes, including glycosylation profiles, from cultures performed in bioreactors with working volumes between 1 L and 1,000 L. The spent media exchange method using the ambr15 was found to predict the influence of different media formulations on large-scale perfusion cultures in contrast to batch and chemostat experiments performed in the microbioreactor system. The described experimental setup in the microbioreactor allowed an 80-fold reduction in cell culture media requirements, half the daily operator time, which can translate into a cost reduction of approximately 2.5-fold compared to a similar experimental setup at bench scale. 相似文献

Light has been found to increase the proportion of tracheary elements differentiating in callus cultures derived from xylem-parenchyma of Pinus radiata D. Don grown on an induction medium containing activated charcoal but no phytohormones. The differentiation rate increased from 20% when callus was grown in darkness to 45% when callus was grown with a 16 h or 24 h photoperiod. When callus was grown with a 16 h photoperiod, tracheary elements were observed 2 days after transfer of callus to the induction medium, as compared to 5 days when callus was cultured in darkness. The differentiation rate was also influenced by the concentration of activated charcoal added to the induction medium, the optimum concentration being 5 g l−1. Exclusion of activated charcoal from the induction medium decreased the differentiation rate to 2%. The activities of the lignin-related enzymes L-phenylalanine ammonia lyase and cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase were significantly higher in cell cultures grown with a 16 h photoperiod as compared to when grown in darkness. The results show that light had a stimulating effect on tracheary element differentiation and the activities of lignin-related enzymes in P. radiata callus cultures. The new growth conditions markedly improve this cell culture system and make it particularly useful for functional gene testing and cell-wall analysis of in vitro grown tracheary elements of coniferous gymnosperms. 相似文献

Based upon the results of scale-down intermittent perfusion processes, a cell-once-through (COT) perfusion concept was applied to a dual bioreactor system coupled to a Centritech Lab II centrifuge for culture of recombinant Chinese hamster ovary (rCHO) cells for monoclonal antibody production. In this new culture mode, i.e., the COT perfusion process, total spent medium was transferred to the centrifuge and a fixed percentage was removed. Approximately 99% of the viable cells are transferred to another bioreactor filled with fresh medium by single operation of the Centritech Lab II centrifuge system for about 30 min. Accordingly, a significant reduction of the cell-passage frequency to the centrifuge led to minimization of cell damage caused by mechanical shear stress, oxygen limitation, nutrient limitation, and low temperature outside the bioreactor. The effects of culture temperature shift and fortified medium on cell growth and recombinant antibody production in the COT perfusion process were investigated. Although the suppressive effects of low culture temperature on cell growth led to a loss of stability in a long-term COT perfusion culture system, the average antibody concentration at 33 degrees C was 157.8 mg/L, approximately 2.4-fold higher than that at 37 degrees C. By the use of a fortified medium at 37 degrees C, rCHO cells were maintained at high density above 1.2 x 10(7) cells/mL, and antibody was produced continuously in a range of 260-280 mg/L in a stable long-term COT perfusion culture. The proposed new culture mode, the COT perfusion approach, guarantees the recovery of rCHO cells damaged by lowered temperature or high lactate and ammonium concentration. It will be an attractive choice for minimization of cell damage and stable long-term antibody production with high cell density. 相似文献

Schaeffer, W. I. (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge), J. Gabliks, and R. Calitis. Interaction of staphylococcal enterotoxin B with cell cultures of human embryonic intestine. J. Bacteriol. 91:21-26. 1966.-The cytotoxic effect of staphylococcal enterotoxin B upon human embryonic intestine cell cultures is characterized by retraction of cells from the monolayer. This is followed by clumping of the retracted cells to form clear areas in the monolayer and finally by sloughing of the clumps from the glass surface. The 50% effective dose of the toxin, determined by protein analysis of the cultures used in titration studies, was found to be between 40 and 60 mug/ml. The cytotoxic property of the enterotoxin was completely neutralized by 3.9 x 10(-5) ml of specific antitoxin per mug of toxin. The cytotoxicity was found to be slightly enhanced by 2.2 g of bicarbonate per liter of Eagle's basal medium (Earle's salt solution level), the absence of serum, the absence of penicillin and streptomycin, and the presence of 2.8 mmoles of calcium in the medium. The cytotoxicity was profoundly influenced by the age of the culture. No cytotoxicity was evident until after 2 days of growth had taken place, when the cell number was approximately 4.0 x 10(5) cells per culture. 相似文献

The effect of nerve growth factor (NGF) on the development of cholinergic sympathetic neurons was studied in cultures grown either on monolayers of dissociated rat heart cells or in medium conditioned by them. In the presence of rat heart cells the absolute requirement of neurons for exogenous NGF was partially spared. The ability of heart cells to support neuronal survival was due at least in part to production of a diffusable NGF-like substance into the medium. Although some neurons survived on the heart cell monolayer without added NGF, increased levels of exogenous NGF increased neuronal survival until saturation was achieved at 0.5 microgram/ml 7S NGF. The ability of neurons to produce acetylcholine (ACh) from choline was also dependent on the level of exogenous NGF. In mixed neuron-heart cell cultures, NGF increased both ACh and catecholamine (CA) production per neuron to the same extent; saturation occurred at 1 microgram/ml 7S NGF. As cholinergic neurons developed in culture, they became less dependent on NGF for survival and ACh production, but even in older cultures approximately 40% of the neurons died when NGF was withdrawn. Thus, NGF is as necessary for survival, growth, and differentiation of sympathetic neurons when the neurons express cholinergic functions as when the neurons express adrenergic functions (4, 5). 相似文献
