Summary Effects of growth factors such as EGF, FGF and IL-2 on cell proliferation and monoclonal antibody production in a hybridoma cell line adapted to a completely defined serum-free medium were determined in batch cultures. The results indicate that the presence of growth factors in the medium enhances the antibody secretion without significantly affecting the growth rate. The specific antibody secretion rate of cells grown in serum-free medium supplemented with growth factors was 35% higher than those grown in serum-free medium alone.  相似文献

Summary The influence of cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP, known regulatory mediators of cellular response, on hybridoma growth and monoclonal antibody production is studied. The cGMP-treated cells exhibited 41% higher specific antibody secretion rate, resulting in 52% higher antibody yields. Addition of 1 mM cAMP inhibited cellular growth but enhanced the specific production rate by 37%.  相似文献

Serum-free media in hybridoma culture and monoclonal antibody production   总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8  
The replacement of serum in hybridoma cultures is considered. The focus is on the effects of serum-free media on hybridoma growth and monoclonal antibody secretion. Comparative literature data with serum supplemented cultures are discussed with an analysis of serum-free formulations and selection rules for the serum-free ingredients. In general, serum-free media which are "lipid rich" can sustain cell growth rates approaching that of serum supplemented cultures. Specific antibody secretion rate, however, is usually higher in serum-free media, irrespective of the lipid content.  相似文献

The influence of glutamine (a major energy source) on both hybridoma growth and monoclonal antibody production was examined. A series of batch experiments were performed in T-flasks containing initial glutamine levels ranging from 0.5 to 4.0 mM in RPMI 1640 with 20% v/v fetal calf serum. The maximum final cell concentration increased with initial glutamine levels in the range of 0.5-2 mM; further glutamine increases had little or no effect. Earlier studies in our laboratories demonstrated that serum component(s) strongly influence the maximum specific growth rate. Here, the present studies reveal also the stoichiometric limitation by glutamine in the later stages of growth when its concentration is drastically reduced. For 0.5 to 1.5 mM initial glutamine, complete substrate utilization coincided with the cessation of cell growth and the onset of the death phase. For initial glutamine concentrations higher than 2.0 mM, growth halted prior to glutamine exhaustion, presumably because serum or RPMI component(s) were exhausted. The specific antibody secretion rate was essentially non-growth-associated above a critical low glutamine concentration in both the growth and death phases. At or below this critical value, an apparent emergence of stoichiometnc or energy limitation resulted in a dramatic drop in the secretion rate to zero. A simple unstructured model was developed that simulates these trends well. All parameters were determined using only subsets of the data. Nevertheless, these parameter values provided simulations in good agreement with all the glutamine-limited cultures.  相似文献

The dynamic behavior of the monoclonal antibody (MAb) secretory pathway is studied by transient simulations using our previously developed structured kinetic model for antibody synthesis and secretion by hybridoma cells. The response of the secretory pathway to blocks in specific pathway steps and step changes in characteristic pathway parameters is presented in order to gain a better understanding of pathway dynamics and identify possible ratelimiting steps in the pathway. Model simulations suggest that the step of antibody assembly in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a very good candidate for a rate-limiting step in the antibody secretory pathway in fast-growing hybridoma cells, whereas translation of the heavy and light chains is most likely rate-limiting in slowly growing or stationary phase cells. Transient simulation results are compared with experimentally observed transient changes in specific antibody secretion rates and used to suggest strategies for optimizing antibody secretion in large-scale production systems.  相似文献

The flow-cytometric (FCM) analysis of bivariate DNA/lgG distributions has been conducted to study the cell cycle kinetics and monoclonal antibody (MAb) production during perfusion culture of hybridoma cells. Three different perfusion rates were employed to demonstrate the dependency of MAb synthesis and secretion on cell cycle and growth rate. The results showed that, during the rapid growth period of perfusion culture, the level of intracellular igG contents of hybridoma cells changed significantly at each perfusion rate, while the DNA histograms showing cell cycle phases were almost constant. Meanwhile, during the reduced growth period of perfusion culture, the fraction of cells in the S phase decreased, and the fraction cells in the G1/G0 phase increased with decreasing growth rate. The fraction of cells in the G2/M phase was relatively constant during the whole period of perfusion culture. Positive correlation was found between mean intracellular IgG contents and the specific MAb production rate, suggesting that the deletion of intracellular IgG contents by a flow cytometer could be used as a good indicator for the prediction of changes in specific MAb productivity following manipulation of the culture condition.

Hybridoma I.13.17 was grown in semicontinuous culture in an attempt to investigate the steady-state concentrations of key components of monoclonal antibody (MAb) synthesis (e.g., intracellular MAb, IgG messenger RNAs) at different dilution rates between 0.008 and 0.055 h(-1). There was a general trend of increasing steady-state levels of total cytoplasmic RNA, total cell-associated MAb or cytoplasmic MAb, DNA synthesis rate, cellular metabolic activity, heavy (H-) and light (L-) chain IgG mRNAs with the increase in dilution rates. Increase in the half-lives of H- and L-chain mRNAs with increase in dilution rates may be sufficient to account for their increasing levels found under the same conditions. The specific growth rate was profoundly affected by the dilution rate, particularly near the lower end of the dilution rate range. Linear relationships were observed between the steady-state amounts of total cell-associated MAb and the relative levels of H- and L-chain mRNAs. Material balances on intracellular MAb demonstrated an increasing percentage of antibody not released into the growth medium (e.g., stored within the cell or anchored to the cell membrane) with increasing dilution rate. The MAb production rate per cell decreased significantly with the increase in dilution rates. No correlation was found between the relative levels of H- or L-chain mRNAs and the specific MAb production rate. Possible implications of rate-limiting steps in MAb synthesis and secretion are discussed.  相似文献

The specific secretion rate (q, mug protein secreted/viable cell-h) and its variance are very useful to compare the capability of cell lines for protein secretion. An assessment of specific secretion rate variability is also beneficial and important when the specific secretion rate is to be used as an on-line process parameter to monitor culture production behavior or for in-process decisionmaking. Experimental errors in mammalian cell culture (e.g., protein concentration measurement and cell counting) and estimation error in the method of calculating q contribute to the total variance of the specific secretion rate. Although the variance of q is essential for comparing the differences between cell lines and the response of the same cell line to different nutrient or environmental conditions, few methods for calculating the variance of the specific secretion rate have been reported. As a model system, we have used the weighted jackknife method and the delta method to calculate the variance in the specific secretion rate of a murine monoclonal antibody (q(mAb)) determined by a differential method. These methods were applied to calculate q(mAb) and its standard deviation to determine the change in q(mAb) kinetics during batch culture of the 9.2.27 hybridoma in response to growth in hyperosmotic media or osmotic stress. Without osmotic stress, during exponential growth in DMEM + 5% FBS spinner culture, the estimate of q(mAb) decreases at least threefold. Results indicate that the 9.2.27 hybridoma responds to hyperosmotic media (400 mOsm, 470 mOsm) by significantly reducing the degree of q(mAb) decrease in the exponential phase, thus maintaining a higher q(mAb) through the stationary phase. The trend of q(mAb) during the batch cultures studied is further confirmed by t-test. Osmotic stress is statistically shown to be able to alter significantly the hybridoma-specific mAb secretion kinetics during batch culture. Determination of the variance of specific secretion rate using the weighted jackknife method offers a powerful approach for establishing the confidence limits of specific protein secretion rate between cell cultures in different nutritional or osmotic environments.

The cell growth and monoclonal antibody production of the 55-6 hybridoma cell co-cultured with the murine thymoma cell line EL-4 at different initial 55-6:EL-4 ratios were investigated. Both populations were seeded in co-culture without previous stimulation and therefore with low constitutive CD40 and CD40 ligand (CD154) expression levels, and in the absence of exogenous co-stimuli. Viable cell density and growth rate data seem to suggest a competition for nutrients, which is detrimental for both cells in terms of biomass production and also of growth rate for 55-6. Final concentrations of antibody and specific antibody production rates were affected by the initial 55-6:EL-4 ratio. The 4:1 ratio yielded the highest IgG2a concentration, whereas the highest specific antibody production rate was obtained at the 2:1 ratio. Changes mainly in CD154 and also in CD40 expression in co-cultures could suggest cross-talk between both populations. In conclusion, different types of interactions are probably present in this co-culture system: competition for nutrients, cognate interaction and/or autocrine or paracrine interactions that influence the proliferation of both cells and the hybridoma antibody secretion. We are hereby presenting a pre-scale-up process that could speed up the optimization of large-scale monoclonal antibodies production in bioreactors by emulating the in vivo cell–cell interaction between B and T cells without previous stimulation or the addition of co-stimulatory molecules.  相似文献

Generally, mammalian cells utilize glucose and glutamine as primary energy sources. To investigate the effect of energy sources on metabolic fluxes and antibody production, glucose- or glutamine-limited serum-free continuous culture of hybridoma 3A21 cells, which produce anti-ribonuclease A antibody, was carried out. The cell volume and dry cell weight were evaluated under various steady-state conditions. The specific consumption and production rates were evaluated on the basis of dry cell weight. On the basis of these results, the fluxes of the metabolic pathway were calculated. It was found that increasing the specific growth rate causes the specific ATP and antibody production rates to decrease. The fluxes between malate and pyruvate also decreased with the increase in specific growth rate. To increase the ATP production rate under steady-state conditions by the enhancement of fluxes between malate and pyruvate, the reduced metabolic fluxes were increased by an intermediate (pyruvate, malate, and citrate) addition. As a result, higher specific ATP and antibody production rates were achieved following the intermediate addition at a constant dilution rate.  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

Summary A detailed study of cell growth and antibody production kinetics in continuous culture found that the specific rate of antibody production reached a maximum saturated profile at a specific growth rate less than the maximum. This observation is novel and of importance in the understanding of the mechanism of antibody production and/or antibody transport.  相似文献

A selection of mouse hybridoma cell lines showed a variation of approximately two orders of magnitude in intracellular monoclonal antibody contents. The different levels directly influenced apparent specific monoclonal antibody productivity during the death phase but not during the growth phase of a batch culture. The pattern of changes in specific productivity during culture remained basically similar even though at different levels for all cell lines tested. Arresting the cells in the G1 phase using thymidine increased the specific productivity, cell volume and intracellular antibody content but at the same time led to decreased viability. In continuous culture DNA synthesis decreased with decreasing dilution rate though without an accompanying change in cell cycle and cell size distributions. The data shows both the decrease in viability and intracellular antibody content to be important factors which influence the negative association between specific antibody productivity and growth rate. In high cell density perfusion culture, when the cell cycle was prolonged by slow growth, viability was low and dead, but not lysed, cells were retained in the system, the specific antibody productivity was nearly two fold higher than that obtained in either batch or continuous cultures. The results imply that the prolongation of G1 phase and the increase in death rate of cells storing a large amount of antibody together cause an apparent increase in specific antibody productivity.  相似文献

A flow cytometric kinetic study of hybidoma growth and monoclonal antibody production is presented, along with the influence of glutamine on intracellular responses such as (relative) cell size, and cell RNA and total protein content. Specific findings are: (1) RNA content remained constant throughout the growth phase, then fell drastically as the cells entered the stationary phase. Also, in stationary phase, RNA content of antibody-producing cells was higher than for those not secreting antibody. (2) The cell size was constant and maximal throughout exponential phase, and diminished monotonically during later stages. (3) Average protein and antibody cellular content declined dramatically upon glutamine exhaustion. Thus, relative RNA levels and cell size provided quantitative determinants of both cell growth state and antibody secretion conditions. These results encourge consideration of structured kinetic studies which recognize the quality of the biophase.  相似文献

The effects of the high-molecular-weight growth factors, transferrin and bovine serum albumin (BSA), on antibody production were analyzed quantitatively in continuous hollow-fiber cultivation over a period of 60 days. Transferrin enhanced cell growth but had no significant effect on the specific antibody production rate, whereas BSA significantly enhanced antibody production. The antibody production rate was increased 4- and 14-fold respectively by feeding BSA at 2 and 5 g L(-1) into the EC side of the system (the side connected to the cell-containing outer part of the hollow-fiber unit) compared with the production achieved without BSA. Addition of 5 g L(1) BSA into the IC side of the system (the side connected to the inner part of the hollow-fiber unit) resulted in a 2.5-fold increase in the antibody production rate. The effect of BSA was also analyzed using the perfusion culture system with a separation unit. When fresh medium containing either 2 or 5 g L(-1) BSA was fed into the reactor, both the specific growth rate and specific death rate increased, while the specific antibody production rate was increased 2- and 25-fold, respectively, by feeding BSA at these two concentrations compared with no addition. Comparing the two systems, the increase in the antibody production rate achieved with the hollow-fiber system was threefold greater than that in the perfusion culture system with the same concentration of BSA feeding.

The secretion of a functional, full-length monoclonal antibody complex from transgenic Nicotiana tabacum roots has been demonstrated. Initially, seeds were germinated on nitrocellulose membranes and antibody secretion detected from the developing roots. Plants were then established in hydroponic culture and secretion into the growth medium measured over 25 days. Western blotting indicated that full-length antibody was present in the medium along with other fragments. Secreted antibody was shown to be functional by binding to antigen in ELISA studies. In contrast, no antibody could be detected from transgenic Nicotiana in which the same antibody was expressed as a membrane protein in the plasmalemma. These results indicate that antibody accumulation in the growth medium is genuinely caused by rhizosecretion and not cell damage. Addition of gelatin to plant growth medium markedly increased levels of antibody accumulation. The mean antibody yield per plant was calculated to be 11.7 g per gram root dry weight per day. Rhizosecretion may be a viable alternative to agricultural production or cell culture for the generation of monoclonal antibodies in transgenic plants. It may also give rise to novel applications for antibodies expressed in plants such as removal or neutralisation of environmental pollutants and attenuation of pathogens which infect the plant via the rhizosphere.  相似文献

Previous work has shown that a human-antibody-producing recombinant CHO cell line did not increase its intracellular content of protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) and heavy chain binding protein (BIP) according to the increasing expression of antibody. It was also found that the intracellular assembly of light and heavy chain is a major limiting factor for overall cell specific productivity, as secretion rates improve with higher light chain expression levels and heavy chain accumulates intracellularly when too little light chain is present. As these CHO cells had a significantly lower intracellular PDI content compared to that of hybridoma cells, these results have led us to try to overcome the limitation in the posttranslational assembly in the endoplasmatic reticulum. Recombinant CHO cells were transfected with PDI or BIP alone or in combination, and the effect on intracellular light and heavy chain content and specific production rate was determined. Overexpression of BIP, both alone and in combination with PDI, reduced the specific secretion rate, whereas PDI, when overexpressed alone, caused an increase of product secretion rate.  相似文献

Factors affecting cell growth and antibody production in a mouse hybridoma were investigated. Antibody was produced during the growth and decline phases of a batch culture with an increase in the specific rate of antibody production during the decline phase. The specific rate of antibody production was also increased in cells arrested by 2 mM thymidine, suggesting that cell proliferation and antibody production can be uncoupled. Reduced serum concentrations resulted in lower cell growth rates but increased antibody production rates. However, this trend was reversed in hybridomas which had been arrested by thymidine, since the highest antibody production rate was associated with high serum concentrations. Likewise, in proliferating cells, the optimum pH for antibody production (pH 6.8) was lower than the optimum pH for cell growth (pH 7.2), whereas in thymidine-blocked cells, the highest antibody production rate was at pH 7.2. High antibody production rates and product yields were also associated with low growth rates in continuous cultures. The possibility that antibody was under cell cycle control was investigated in synchronized hybridoma cultures. Antibody production occurred during G1 and G2 with a decline in the M phase and evidence of a further decline in the S phase. Thus antibody production was not restricted to the G1 and S phase in this hybridoma.  相似文献

A quantitative study of the influence of initial serum concentration on hybridoma growth rate, maximum viable and total cell yield, and specific antibody production rate is presented. The specific growth rate varied in a Monod fashion with initial serum levels (2-10% FCS), giving K(m) = 1.6 v/v% and mu(max) = 0.92 d(-1). The maximum cell yields (total and viable) were linear with initial serum level, indicating stoichiometric as well as kinetic limitation by serum component(s). The specific antibody production rate for each individual run fitted well to a non-growth-associated model. However, the non-growth-associated parameter varied monotonically with initial serum concentration, suggesting the catalytic role of serum component(s) in antibody production. Also, glutamine was utilized inefficiently, with at least a third of it secreted back into the culture supernate in the form of glutamate. While very simple model equations describe the specific growth and product formation rate for an individual batch run, the larger picture indicates need for a more detailed unstructured or structured model.  相似文献
