A murine hybridoma line (Zac3), secreting an IgA monoclonal antibody, was cultivated in different systems: a BALB/c mouse, a T-flask, a stirred-tank bioreactor and a hollow fiber reactor. These systems were characterized in terms of cell metabolism and performances for IgA production. Cultures in T-flask and batch bioreactor were found to be glutamine-limited. Ammonia and lactate were produced in significant amounts. IgA productivity was found to be constant and growth associated. Final IgA concentration was similar in both systems. In fed-batch cultures, supplemented with glutamine and glucose, maximum viable cell concentration was increased by 60% and final IgA concentration by 155%. The hollow fiber reactor was able to produce very large amounts of IgA at very high concentrations, similar to the value found in ascites fluid. The productivity ofZac3 is similar to the values reported for IgG-producing cell lines.  相似文献

Ammonia and lactate are the major byproducts from mammalian cells grown in medium containing glutamine and glucose. Both can be toxic to cells, and may limit the productivity of commercial bioreactors. The transient and steady-state responses of hybridoma growth and metabolism to lactate and ammonia pulse and step changes in continuous suspension culture have been examined. No inhibition was observed at 40 mM lactate. Cell growth was inhibited by 5 mM ammonia, but the cells were able to adapt to ammonia concentrations as high as 8.2 mM. Ammonia production decreased and alanine production increased in response to higher ammonia concentrations. Increased ammonia concentrations also inhibited glutamine and oxygen consumption. The specific oxygen consumption rate decreased by an order of magnitude after an ammonia pulse to 18 mM. Under these conditions, over 90% of the estimated ATP production was due to glycolysis and a large fraction of glutamine was converted to lactate.  相似文献

An online system using HPLC was developed for the measurement of glucose, glutamine, and lactate in a culture broth. Using the system, the glucose and glutamine concentrations were controlled simultaneously by an adaptive-control algorithm within the ranges of 0.2 to 2.0 and 0.1 to 0.6 g/L, respectively. When the glucose concentration was controlled at the low level of 0.2 g/L, the intracellular lactate dehydrogenase activity decreased by one-half and the lactate concentration by one-third, whereas the uptake rates of serine and glycine were about twice as high, compared with the amounts when the glucose concentration was controlled at 1.0 g/L. On the other hand, ammonia production increased when the glucose concentration was kept low. To reduce the production of inhibitory metabolites such as ammonia and lactate and improve the antibody production rate in a hybridoma cell culture, the concentrations of glucose and glutamine were controlled at 0.2 and 0.1 g/L, respectively. With these low concentrations of glucose and glutamine, the cell concentration (4.1 x 10(6) cells/mL) and antibody production (172 mg/L) both increased about twofold compared with the amounts when the glucose was controlled at higher levels. From these results, simultaneous control of the glucose and glutamine concentrations was shown to be useful in the production of antibody by hybridoma cell cultivation.

Lovastatin biosynthesis depends on the relative concentrations of dissolved oxygen and the carbon and nitrogen resources. An elucidation of the underlying relationship would facilitate the derivation of a controller for the improvement of lovastatin yield in bioprocesses. To achieve this goal, batch submerged cultivation experiments of lovastatin production by Aspergillus flavipus BICC 5174, using both lactose and glucose as carbon sources, were performed in a 7‐L bioreactor and the data used to determine how the relative concentrations of lactose, glucose, glutamine, and oxygen affected lovastatin yield. A model was developed based on these results and its prediction was validated using an independent set of batch data obtained from a 15‐L bioreactor using five statistical measures, including the Willmott index of agreement. A non‐linear controller was designed considering that dissolved oxygen and lactose concentrations could be measured online, and using the lactose feed rate and airflow rate as process inputs. Simulation experiments were performed to demonstrate that a practical implementation of the non‐linear controller would result in satisfactory outcomes. This is the first model that correlates lovastatin biosynthesis to carbon–nitrogen proportion and possesses a structure suitable for implementing a strategy for controlling lovastatin production.  相似文献

A glucose control system is presented, which is able to control cultivations of Saccharomyces cerevisiae even at low glucose concentrations. Glucose concentrations are determined using a special flow injection analysis (FIA) system, which does not require a sampling module. An extended Kalman filter is employed for smoothing the glucose measurements as well as for the prediction of glucose and biomass concentration, the maximum specific growth rate, and the volume of the culture broth. The predicted values are utilized for feedforward/feedback control of the glucose concentration at set points of 0.08 and 0.05 g/L. The controller established well-defined conditions over several hours up to biomass concentrations of 13.5 and 20.7 g/L, respectively. The specific glucose uptake rates at both set points were 1.04 and 0.68 g/g/h, respectively. It is demonstrated that during fed-batch cultivation an overall pure oxidative metabolism of glucose is maintained at the lower set point and a specific ethanol production rate of 0.18 g/g/h at the higher set point.  相似文献

The influence of ammonia and lactate on cell growth, metabolic, and antibody production rates was investigated for murine hybridoma cell line 163.4G5.3 during batch culture. The specific growth rate was reduced by one-half in the presence of an initial ammonia concentration of 4 mM. Increasing ammonia levels accelerated glucose and glutamine consumption, decreased ammonia yield from glutamine, and increased alanine yield from glutamine. Although the amount of antibody produced decreased with increasing ammonia concentration, the specific antibody productivity remained relatively constant around a value of 0.22 pg/cell-h. The specific growth rate was reduced by one-half at an initial lactate concentration of 55 mM. Although specific glucose and glutamine uptake rates were increased at high lacatate concentration, they showed a decrease after making corrections for medium osmolarity. The yield coefficient of lactate from glucose decreased at high lactate concentrations. A similar decrease was observed for the ammonia yield coefficient from glutamine. At elevated lactate concentrations, specific antibody productivities increased, possibly due to the increase in medium osmolarity. The specific oxygen uptake rate was insensitive to ammonia and lactate concentrations. Addition of ammonia and lactate increased the calculated metabolic energy production of the cells. At high ammonia and lactate, the contribution of glycolysis to total energy production increased. Decreasing external pH and increasing ammonia concentrations caused cytoplasmic acidification. Effect of lactate on intracellular pH was insignificant, whereas increasing osmolarity caused cytoplasmic alkalinization.  相似文献

Fed-batch cultures were implemented to study the metabolism of HEK-293 cells. Glucose, measured every 30 min by a FIA biosensor system, was maintained at 1 mM throughout the culture using an adaptive nonlinear controller based on minimal process modeling. The controller performed satisfactorily at both low and high cell concentrations without the need for retuning between different culture phases. Overall, lactate production was significantly reduced by maintaining a low glucose concentration, thus decreasing the rate of glycolysis. The rates of glucose and glutamine uptake as well as the lactate and ammonia production were compared to those obtained in batch mode with an initial glucose concentration of 21 mM. Basically, three phases were observed in both culture modes. The metabolic shift from the first to the second phase was characterized by a significant reduction in glucose consumption and lactate production while maximum growth rate was maintained. The specific respiration rate appeared unchanged during the first two phases, suggesting that no change occurred in the oxidative pathway capacity. In the third phase, cell growth became slower very likely due to glutamine limitation.  相似文献

Ammonia metabolism of ratprimary hepatocytes and a human hepatocyte cell line,Huh 7, at different concentrations of glutamine,glucose and ammonia was examined. During theincubation of the primary hepatocyte cells, glutamineand ammonia concentrations decreased, that of ureaincreased, and that of glucose remained the same. Inthe case of Huh 7 cells, glucose was consumed rapidly,the concentration of ammonia increased and that of urearemained the same. The major energy sources amongmedium components were glutamine for the primary cellsand glucose for Huh 7 cells, although the primaryhepatocytes may utilize intracellular glycogen asenergy source. As the glutamine concentration in theincubation medium increased, the specific rates of notonly glutamine consumption, but also ammonia productionby the primary cells and Huh 7 cells increased. Besides, specific urea production rate by the primarycells increased then. Increase of glucoseconcentration had no effect on glutamine and ammoniametabolism by both cells, although it increased glucoseconsumption by Huh 7 cells. The incubation of theprimary cells with higher ammonia concentrationincreased all specific rates of glutamine consumption,ammonia consumption and urea production. An increasein the ammonia concentration to 5 mM changed theammonia metabolism from production to consumption andincreased the specific glucose consumption rate. Consequently, increases in the glutamine and ammoniaconcentrations were revealed to have negative andpositive effects, respectively, on decreasing ammoniaconcentration by both of rat primary hepatocytes andHuh 7 cells.  相似文献

In our previous work (Xie and Wang, 1994a), a simplified stoichiometric model on energy metabolism for animal cell cultivation was developed. Fed-batch experiments were performed in T-flasks using this model in supplemental medium design (Xie and Wang, 1994b). In this work, the major pathways of glucose and glutamine metabolism were incorporated into the stoichiometric model. Fed-batch culture was conducted in a 2-liter bioreactor with appropriate process control strategies. Nutrient concentrations, especially glucose and glutamine, were maintained at constant but low levels through the automated feeding of a supplemental medium formulated using the improved stoichiometric model. The formation of toxic byproducts, such as ammonia and lactate (Hassellet al., 1991), was greatly reduced. The specific lactate production rate was decreased by 62-fold compared with batch culture in bioreactor and by 8-fold compared to fed-batch culture in T-flask using the previous stoichiometric model. Ammonia formation was also decreased compared with both the batch and fed-batch cultures. Most importantly, the monoclonal antibody concentration reached 900 mg l?1, an increase of 17- and 1.6-fold compared with the batch and fed-batch cultures respectively.  相似文献

The present work aims at characterizing the regulatory mechanisms of metabolism and product formation of BHK cells producing a recombinant antibody/cytokine fusion protein. This work was carried out through the achievement of several steady-states in chemostat cultures, corresponding to different glucose and glutamine levels in the feed culture medium. Results obtained indicate that both glucose and glutamine consumptions show a Michaelis-Menten dependence on residual glucose and glutamine concentrations, respectively. Similar dependence was also observed for lactate and ammonia productions. K(Glc)(Glc) and K(Gln)(Gln) were estimated to be 0.4 and 0.15 mM, respectively, while q(max)(Glc) and q(max)(Gln) were estimated to be 1.8 and 0.55 nmol 10(-6)cells min(-1), respectively. At very low glucose concentrations, the glucose-to-lactate yield decreased markedly showing a metabolic shift towards lower lactate production; also, the glucose-to-cells yield was increased. At very low-glutamine concentrations, the glutamine-to-ammonia and glutamine-to-cells yields increased, showing a more efficient glutamine metabolism. Overall, amino acid consumption was increased under low glucose or glutamine concentrations. Metabolic-flux analysis confirmed the metabolic shifts by showing increases in the fluxes of the more energetically efficient pathways, at low-nutrient concentrations. No effect of glucose or glutamine concentrations on the cell-specific productivity was observed, even under metabolically shifted metabolism; therefore, it is possible to confine the cells to a more efficient metabolic state maintaining the productivity of the recombinant product of interest, and consequently, increasing final product titers by increasing cell concentration and culture length. This work is intended to be a model approach to characterize cell metabolism in an integrated way; it is highly valuable for the establishment of operating strategies in mammalian cell fermentations in which cell metabolism is to be confined to a desired state.  相似文献

Perfusion cultures of CHO cells producing t-PA were performed using acoustic filter cell retention. A robust off-line glucose analysis and predictive control protocol was developed to maintain the process within approximately 0.5 mM of the glucose set point, without the need for a more fallible on-line sensor. Glucose usage (the difference between the inlet and reactor glucose concentrations) provided an easily measured indicator of overall medium utilization for mapping acceptable ranges of operation, including the edge of failure. Earlier onset of perfusion with a ramping glucose set point (1.5 mM/d) resulted in improved growth and consistency during the perfusion culture start-up. At steady state, the t-PA concentration variability increased gradually with increasing glucose usage up to approximately 22 mM, then up to 24 mM the variability increased threefold. Peak t-PA concentrations of over 90 mg/L were obtained by controlling at a glucose usage of approximately 24 mM, but these t-PA levels were not sustainable for more than 3 days. A consistent t-PA concentration of 40 mg/L was obtained at a glucose usage of 21.5 mM.  相似文献

Recombinant adenoviruses became one of the vectors of choice for delivery and expression of foreign proteins for gene therapy and vaccination purposes. Nevertheless, the production of adenovirus is currently limited by the so-called "cell density effect", i.e., a drop in cell specific productivity concomitant with increased cell concentration at infection (CCI). This work describes the characterisation and optimisation of the infection process in order to improve recombinant adenovirus type 5 yields at high cell densities. For that purpose, 293 cells adapted to suspension were grown in 2l bioreactors and infected at different cell concentrations, using different re-feed strategies, while evaluating cell metabolism. The consumption of amino acids is enhanced during infection, although no amino acid limitation was detected for cells infected at concentrations in the range of 2 x 10(6)cell/ml, for which the highest volumetric productivity was obtained in batch mode. Conversely, infecting at cell concentrations in the range of 3 x10(6)cell/ml led to complete depletion of glucose, glutamine and threonine before the optimal harvesting time, a significant decrease in volumetric productivity being observed; the effect of amino acids and glucose addition at infection time on cell specific and volumetric productivity of adenovirus was assessed, no improvement on adenovirus production being achieved. The effect of ammonia, present in high concentrations at 3 x10(6)cell/ml, was evaluated and seem to be detrimental; an 1.8-fold increase on adenovirus volumetric productivity was obtained for infections performed at 3 x10(6)cell/ml when non-ammoniagenic medium was used.  相似文献

The concentration effects of certain amino acids (Asp, Ile, Leu, Lys, Met, Val, Phe and Gln which were highly consumed during cultivation), and glucose on cell growth and antibody productivity were investigated using dish culture. From these experiments, it was found that only glutamine enrichment enhanced the specific antibody production rate. The other amino acids described above did not affect either the specific growth rate or specific antibody production rate. Thus we investigated the quantitative effects of glutamine concentration in the range of 0.4∼33.3 mmol·1−1 on kinetic parameters in fed-batch culture which kept both glucose and glutamine concentration constant. As a result the specific growth rate decreased with increase in glutamine concentration in the range larger than 20 mmol·1−1. The specific antibody production rate had a maximum value at about 25 mmol·1−1 glutamine concentration.  相似文献

Optimization of fed-batch feeding parameters was explored for a system with multiple mechanisms of product inactivation. In particular, two separate mechanisms of inactivation were identified for the recombinant tissue-type activator (r-tPA) protein. Dynamic inactivation models were written to describe particular r-tPA glycoform inactivation in the presence and absence of free-glucose. A glucose-independent inactivation mechanism was identified, and inactivation rate constants were found dependent upon the presence of glycosylation of r-tPA at N184. Inactivation rate constants of the glucose-dependent mechanism were not affected by glycosylation at N184. Fed-batch optimization was performed for r-tPA production by CHO cell culture in a stirred-tank reactor with glucose, glutamine and asparagine feed. Feeding profiles in which culture supernatant concentrations of free-glucose and amino acids (combined glutamine and asparagine) were used as control variables, were evaluated for a wide variety of set points. Simulation results for a controlled feeding strategy yielded an optimum at set points of 1.51 g L(-1) glucose and 1.18 g L(-1) of amino acids. Optimization was also performed in absence of metabolite control using fixed feed-flow rates initiate during the exponential growth phase. Fixed feed-flow results displayed a family of optimum solutions along a mass flow rate ratio of 3.15 of glucose to amino acids. Comparison of the two feeding strategies showed a slight advantage of rapid feeding at a fixed flow rate as opposed to metabolite control for a product with multiple mechanisms of inactivation.  相似文献

Two murine hybridoma cell lines (167.4G5.3 and S3H5/gamma2bA2) were adapted to grow in low-serum and serum-free media by a weaning procedure. The changes in cell growth, metabolic, and antibody production rates with adaptation were examined using biochemical and flow cytometric analyses. After adaptation to a particular serum level, the short-term serum response of the cells was experimentally determined. Specific growth rates, glucose and glutamine uptake and lactate and ammonia production rates, and specific antibody production rates were evaluated from the data. For both cell lines, an improvement in cell growth was observed after adaptation, and both higher growth rates and higher cell concentrations were obtained. The specific glucose and glutamine uptake rates and the lactate and ammonia production rates changed insignificantly with adaptation. Conversely, changes in the specific antibody production rate of the two cell lines differed. Cell line 167.4G5.3 showed a loss in antibody productivity at low serum levels, while the S3H5/gamma2bA2 kept its original productivity in low-serum-containing media. The intracellular antibody content for S3H5/gamma2bA2 cells remained unaltered by adaptation, but a low antibody containing cell population appeared in the 167.4G5.3 culture. The loss of specific antibody productivity in this cell line was due to the appearance of this population.  相似文献

Oxygen is an important nutrient that may limit the productivity of commercial cell culture reactors. The transient responses of hybridoma growth and metabolism to step changes in the oxygen supply rate have been examined for dissolved oxygen concentrations (DO) ranging from 0.1% to 10% of air saturation in continuous culture. Metabolic quotients are reported for glucose, lactate, ammonia, oxygen, glutamine, alanine and other amino acids. A majority of the estimated ATP production was due to oxidative phosphorylation under all conditions tested. Decreases in the oxygen supply rate below the value required to maintain 0.5% DO caused the viable cell concentration to decrease. Glycolysis was enhanced at the lower oxygen concentrations, and after an initial decrease, the specific glutamine consumption rate was also higher. High residual glutamine concentrations occurred below 0.5% DO. Oxidation of other amino acids and production of serine were also inhibited. The cells subsequently adapted to low oxygen concentrations. The increase in cell concentration following the return to 10% DO was preceded by increased biosynthetic activity, as evidenced by transiently reduced yields of lactate from glucose, and alanine and ammonia from glutamine.  相似文献

Alteration of mammalian cell metabolism by dynamic nutrient feeding   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
Zhou W  Rehm J  Europa A  Hu WS 《Cytotechnology》1997,24(2):99-108
The metabolism of hybridoma cells was controlled to reduce metabolic formation in fed-batch cultures by dynamically feeding a salt-free nutrient concentrate. For this purpose, on-line oxygen uptake rate (OUR) measurement was used to estimate the metabolic demand of hybridoma cells and to determine the feeding rate of a concentrated solution of salt-free DMEM/F12 medium supplemented with other medium components. The ratios among glucose, glutamine and other medium components in the feeding nutrient concentrate were adjusted stoichiometrically to provide balanced nutrient conditions for cell growth. Through on-line control of the feeding rate of the nutrient concentrate, both glucose and glutamine concentrations were maintained at low levels of 0.5 and 0.2 mM respectively during the growth stage. The concentrations of the other essential amino acids were also maintained without large fluctuations. The cell metabolism was altered from that observed in batch cultures resulting in a significant reduction of lactate, ammonia and alanine production. Compared to a previously reported fed-batch culture in which only glucose was maintained at a low level and only a reduced lactate production was observed, this culture has also reduced the production of other metabolites, such as ammonium and alanine. As a result, a high viable cell concentration of more than 1.0 × 107 cells/mL was achieved and sustained over an extended period. The results demonstrate an efficient nutrient feeding strategy for controlling cell metabolism to achieve and sustain a high viable cell concentration in fed-batch mammalian cell cultures in order to enhance the productivity. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献

Ammonia decreased metabolism by rat colonic epithelial cells of butyrate and acetate to CO2 and ketones but increased oxidation of glucose and glutamine. Ammonia decreased cellular concentrations of oxaloacetate for all substrates evaluated. The extent to which butyrate carbon was oxidized to CO2 after entering the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle was not significantly influenced by ammonia, suggesting there was no major shift toward efflux of carbon from the TCA cycle. Ammonia reduced entry of butyrate carbon into the TCA cycle, and the proportion of CoA esterified with acetate and butyrate correlated positively with the production of CO2 and ketone bodies. Also, ammonia reduced oxidation of propionate but had no effect on oxidation of 3-hydroxybutyrate. Inclusion of glucose, lactate, or glutamine with butyrate and acetate counteracted the ability of ammonia to decrease their oxidation. In rat colonocytes, it appears that ammonia suppresses short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) oxidation by inhibiting a step before or during their activation. This inhibition is alleviated by glucose and other energy-generating compounds. These results suggest that ammonia may only affect SCFA metabolism in vivo when glucose availability is compromised.  相似文献

PER.C6(R) cell growth, metabolism, and adenovirus production were studied in head-to-head comparisons in stirred bioreactors under different pH conditions. Cell growth rate was found to be similar in the pH range of 7.1-7.6, while a long lag phase and a slower growth rate were observed at pH 6.8. The specific consumption rates of glucose and glutamine decreased rapidly over time during batch cell growth, as did the specific lactate and ammonium production rates. Cell metabolism in both infected and uninfected cultures was very sensitive to culture pH, resulting in dramatic differences in glucose/glutamine consumption and lactate/ammonium production under different pH conditions. It appeared that glucose metabolism was suppressed at low pH but the efficiency of energy production from glucose was enhanced. Adenovirus infection resulted in profound changes in cell growth and metabolism. Cell growth was largely arrested under all pH conditions, while glucose consumption and lactate production were elevated post virus infection. Virus infection induced a reduction in glutamine consumption at low pH but an increase at high pH. The optimal pH for adenovirus production was found to be 7.3 under the experimental conditions used in the study. Deviations from this optimum resulted in significant reductions of virus productivity. The results indicate that culture pH is a very critical process parameter in PER.C6(R) cell culture and adenovirus production.  相似文献

By means of a model predictive control strategy it was possible to ensure a high batch-to-batch reproducibility in animal cell (CHO-cell) suspensions cultured for a recombinant therapeutic protein (EPO) production. The general control objective was derived by identifying an optimal specific growth rate taking productivity, protein quality and process controllability into account. This goal was approached indirectly by controlling the oxygen mass consumed by the cells which is related to specific biomass growth rate and cell concentration profile by manipulating the glutamine feed rate. Process knowledge represented by a classical model was incorporated into the model predictive control algorithm. The controller was employed in several cultivation experiments. During these cultivations, the model parameters were adapted after each sampling event to cope with changes in the process’ dynamics. The ability to predict the state variables, particularly for the oxygen consumption, led to only moderate changes in the desired optimal operational trajectories. Hence, nearly identical oxygen consumption profiles, cell and protein titers as well as sialylation patterns were obtained for all cultivation runs.  相似文献
