Improvement of mammalian cell culture performance through surfactant enabled concentrated feed media
Patrick Hossler Sean McDermott Christopher Racicot John C. H. Fann 《Biotechnology progress》2013,29(4):1023-1033
The design of basal and feed media in mammalian cell culture is paramount towards ensuring acceptable upstream process performance in various operation modes, especially fed‐batch culture. Mammalian cell culture media designs have evolved from the classical formulations designed by Eagle and Ham, to today's formulations designed from continuous improvement and statistical frameworks. Feed media is especially important for ensuring robust cell growth, productivity, and ensuring the product quality of recombinant therapeutics are within acceptable ranges. Numerous studies have highlighted the benefit of various media designs, supplements, and feed addition strategies towards the resulting cell culture process. In this work we highlight the use of a top‐down level approach towards feed media design enabled by the use of select surfactants for the targeted enrichment of a chemically defined feed media. The use of the enriched media was able to improve product titers at g/L levels, without adversely impacting the growth of multiple Chinese Hamster Ovary cell lines or the product quality of multiple recombinant antibodies. © 2013 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol.

The presence of aggregated forms of proteins can be problematic for therapeutics due to the potential for immunogenic and pharmacokinetic issues. Although downstream processing can remove the aggregated forms, inhibiting aggregate formation upstream during the cell culture stage could reduce the burden on downstream processing and potentially improve process yields. This study first examined the effects of environmental factors (temperature, pH, and dissolved oxygen) and medium components (bivalent copper ion, cysteine, and cystine) on the aggregation of two different recombinant fusion proteins expressed by Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. Any strategy to reduce protein aggregation upstream during cell culture must also consider potential effects on critical upstream parameters such as cell growth, harvest titer, and protein sialylation levels. Manipulating the culture temperature shift and cystine concentration in the medium were both identified as effective and practical strategies for reducing protein aggregation in both CHO-cell expression systems. Furthermore, a combination of both strategies was more effective in reducing protein aggregation levels compared to either approach individually; and without any negative effects on harvest titer and protein sialylation. This study demonstrates a practical methodology for decreasing protein aggregation during upstream processing and emphasizes the importance of process understanding to ensure production of recombinant glycoprotein therapeutics with consistent product quality. 相似文献

Chemically defined iron compounds were investigated for the development of animal protein-free cell culture media to support growth of CHO cells and production of monoclonal antibodies (mAb). Using a multivessel approach of 96-well plates, shake flasks, and bioreactors, we identified iron and its chemical partner citrate as critical components for maintenance of continuous cell growth and mAb production. The optimized iron concentration range was determined to be 0.1-0.5 mM and that for citrate 0.125-1 mM. This complete formulation is able to maintain cell growth to similar levels as those supplemented with iron compounds alone; however, mAb productivity was enhanced by 30-40% when citrate was present. The addition of sodium citrate (SC) did not affect product quality as determined by size exclusion chromatography, ion exchange chromatography, reversed phase and normal phase-HPLC. No significant changes in glucose and lactate profiles, amino acid utilization, or mAb heavy and light chain expression ratios were observed. Cellular ATP level was ~30% higher when SC was included suggesting that SC may have a role in enhancing cellular energy content. When cell lysates were analyzed by LC-MS to assess the overall cellular protein profile, we identified that in the SC-containing sample, proteins involved in ribosome formation and protein folding were upregulated, and those functions in protein degradation were downregulated. Taken together, this data demonstrated that iron and citrate combination significantly enhanced mAb production without altering product quality and suggested these compounds had a role in upregulating the protein synthetic machinery to promote protein production. 相似文献

Aggregation of baby hamster kidney (BHK) cells cultivated in perfusion mode for manufacturing recombinant proteins was characterized. The potential impact of cultivation time on cell aggregation for an aggregating culture (cell line A) was studied by comparing expression profiles of 84 genes in the extracellular adhesion molecules (ECM) pathway by qRT‐PCR from 9 and 25 day shake flask samples and 80 and 94 day bioreactor samples. Significant up‐regulation of THBS2 (4.4‐ to 6.9‐fold) was seen in both the 25 day shake flask and 80 and 94 day bioreactor samples compared to the 9 day shake flask while NCAM1 was down‐regulated 5.1‐ to 8.9‐fold in the 80 and 94 day bioreactor samples. Subsequent comparisons were made between cell line A and a non‐aggregating culture (cell line B). A 65 day perfusion bioreactor sample from cell line B served as the control for 80 and 94 day samples from four different perfusion bioreactors for cell line A. Of the 84 genes in the ECM pathway, four (COL1A1, COL4A1, THBS2, and VCAN) were consistently up‐regulated in cell line A while two (NCAM1 and THBS1) were consistently down‐regulated. The magnitudes of differential gene expression were much higher when cell lines were compared (4.1‐ to 44.6‐fold) than when early and late cell line B samples were compared (4.4‐ to 6.9‐fold) indicating greater variability between aggregating and non‐aggregating cell lines. Based on the differential gene expression results, two mechanistic models were proposed for aggregation of BHK cells in perfusion cultures. Biotechnol.

Sterility of cell culture media is an important concern in biotherapeutic processing. In large scale biotherapeutic production, a unit contamination of cell culture media can have costly effects. Ultraviolet (UV) irradiation is a sterilization method effective against bacteria and viruses while being non‐thermal and non‐adulterating in its mechanism of action. This makes UV irradiation attractive for use in sterilization of cell culture media. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of UV irradiation of cell culture media in terms of chemical composition and the ability to grow cell cultures in the treated media. The results showed that UV irradiation of commercial cell culture media at relevant disinfection doses impacted the chemical composition of the media with respect to several carboxylic acids, and to a minimal extent, amino acids. The cumulative effect of these changes, however, did not negatively influence the ability to culture Chinese Hamster Ovary cells, as evaluated by cell viability, growth rate, and protein titer measurements in simple batch growth compared with the same cells cultured in control media exposed to visible light. © 2014 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol.

Several new cell culture media designed specifically for the expression of recombinant antibodies in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells were investigated for the presence of bovine IgG. Three serum-free media, three protein-free (animal component free) media, as well as one chemically defined medium were included in the study. Employing a combination of affinity chromatography (Protein G or A columns), SDS-PAGE analysis, and peptide mass fingerprinting, two of the serum-free media were found to contain bovine IgG in the range of approximately 0.5 mg/L. The other five media did not contain detectable levels of contaminating Protein A or G-binding proteins such as bovine IgG. 相似文献

Lactate has long been regarded as one of the key metabolites of mammalian cell cultures. High levels of lactate have clear negative impacts on cell culture processes, and therefore, a great amount of efforts have been made to reduce lactate accumulation and/or to induce lactate consumption in the later stage of cultures. However, there is virtually no report on the impact of lactate depletion after initial accumulation. In this work, we observed that glucose uptake rate dropped over 50% at the onset of lactate consumption, and that catabolism of alanine due to lactate depletion led to ammonium accumulation. We explored the impact of feeding lactate as well as pyruvate to the cultures. In particular, a strategy was employed where CO(2) was replaced by lactic acid for culture pH control, which enabled automatic lactate feeding. The results demonstrated that lactate or pyruvate can serve as an alternative or even preferred carbon source during certain stage of the culture in the presence of glucose, and that by feeding lactate or pyruvate, very low levels of ammonia can be achieved throughout the culture. In addition, low levels of pCO(2) were also maintained in these cultures. This was in strong contrast to the control cultures where lactate was depleted during the culture, and ammonia and pCO(2) build-up were significant. Culture growth and productivity were similar between the control and lactate-fed cultures, as well as various product quality attributes. To our knowledge, this work represents the first comprehensive study on lactate depletion and offers a simple yet effective strategy to overcome ammonia and pCO(2) accumulation that could arise in certain cultures due to early depletion of lactate. 相似文献

A series of high-density media for mammalian cell culture were developed by step-fortifications of most nutrient components in RPMI-1640 medium. Each medium constituting the series was constructed to meet in vitro cell growth limitations. Four different cell lines were cultivated in the media series, and their growth characteristics were observed. Maximum cell densities varied in the range of 0.4 to 1.3 x 10(7) cells/mL, depending on cell lines. Cell growth responses to each of the media series were analyzed in terms of cell density and cell mass. Step increases of cell mass in the range of 1.3 to 3.7 g/L were observed according to the step-fortifications of nutrients. Also, the characteristics of each cell line were compared in terms of metabolic yields and specific productions of lactic acid and ammonium ion. The effect of step-fortifications of nutrients on the production of monoclonal antibody was also examined. Apparent differences in metabolic characteristics among cell lines were observed. Experimental results suggested that the different cell sizes and metabolic characteristics of each cell line resulted in cell-line-specific responses to the step-fortifications. The significant influence of nutritional fortifications on high-density culture of mammalian cells was evaluated. (c) 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

Amino acid compositions of cell culture media are empirically designed to enhance cell growth and productivity and vary both across media formulations and over the course of culture due to imbalance in supply and consumption. The interconnected nature of the amino acid transporters and metabolism suggests that changes in amino acid composition can affect cell physiology. In this study, we explore the effect of a step change in amino acid composition from a DMEM: F12-based medium to a formulation varying in relative abundances of all amino acids, evaluated at two amino acid concentrations (lean LAA vs. rich HAA). Cell growth was inhibited in LAA but not HAA. In addition to the expected effects on expression of the cell cycle, amino acid response and mTOR pathway genes in LAA, we observed an unanticipated effect on zinc uptake and efflux genes. This was accompanied by a lower tolerance to zinc supplementation in LAA but not in the other formulations. Histidine was sufficient but not necessary to prevent such zinc toxicity. Additionally, an unanticipated downregulation of genes in the cholesterol synthesis pathway was observed in HAA, accompanied by an increase in cellular cholesterol content, which may depend on the relative abundances of glutamine and other amino acids. This study shows that changes in the amino acid composition without any evident effect on growth may have profound effects on metabolism. Such analyses can help rationalize the designing of medium and feed formulations for bioprocess applications beyond replenishment of consumed components. 相似文献

During a small‐scale cell culture process producing a monoclonal antibody, a larger than expected difference was observed in the charge variants profile of the harvested cell culture fluid (HCCF) between the 2 L and larger scales (e.g., 400 L and 12 kL). Small‐scale studies performed at the 2 L scale consistently showed an increase in acidic species when compared with the material made at larger scale. Since the 2 L bioreactors were made of clear transparent glass while the larger scale reactors are made of stainless steel, the effect of ambient laboratory light on cell culture process in 2 L bioreactors as well as handling the HCCF was carefully evaluated. Photoreactions in the 2 L glass bioreactors including light mediated increase in acidic variants in HCCF and formulation buffers were identified and carefully analyzed. While the acidic variants comprised of a mixture of sialylated, reduced disulfide, crosslinked (nonreducible), glycated, and deamidated forms, an increase in the nonreducible forms, deamidation and Met oxidation was predominantly observed under light stress. The monoclonal antibody produced in glass bioreactors that were protected from light behaved similar to the one produced in the larger scale. Our data clearly indicate that care should be taken when glass bioreactors are used in cell culture studies during monoclonal antibody production. © 2014 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol.

The production of biopharmaceuticals requires highly sophisticated, complex cell based processes. Once a process has been developed, acceptable ranges for various control parameters are typically defined based on process characterization studies often comprising several dozens of small scale bioreactor cultivations. A lot of data is generated during these studies and usually only the information needed to define acceptable ranges is processed in more detail. Making use of the wealth of information contained in such data sets, we present here a methodology that uses performance data (such as metabolite profiles) to forecast the product quality and quantity of mammalian cell culture processes based on a toolbox of advanced statistical methods. With this performance based modeling (PBM) the final product concentration and 12 quality attributes (QAs) for two different biopharmaceutical products were predicted in daily intervals throughout the main stage process. The best forecast was achieved for product concentration in a very early phase of the process. Furthermore, some glycan isoforms were predicted with good accuracy several days before the bioreactor was harvested. Overall, PBM clearly demonstrated its capability of early process endpoint prediction by only using commonly available data, even though it was not possible to predict all QAs with the desired accuracy. Knowing the product quality prior to the harvest allows the manufacturer to take counter measures in case the forecasted quality or quantity deviates from what is expected. This would be a big step towards real‐time release, an important element of the FDA's PAT initiative. © 2015 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol. Prog., 31:1119–1127, 2015 相似文献

We present robust methods for online estimation of cell specific oxygen uptake and carbon dioxide production rates (q(O2) and q(CO2), respectively) during perfusion cultivation of mammalian cells. Perfusion system gas and liquid phase mass balance expressions for oxygen and carbon dioxide were used to estimate q(O2), q(CO2) and the respiratory quotient (RQ) for Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells in perfusion culture over 12 steady states with varying dissolved oxygen (DO), pH, and temperature set points. Under standard conditions (DO = 50%, pH = 6.8, T = 36.5°C), q(O2) and q(CO2) ranges were 5.14-5.77 and 5.31-6.36 pmol/cell day, respectively, resulting in RQ values of 0.98-1.14. Changes to DO had a slight reducing effect on respiration rates with q(O2) and q(CO2) values of 4.64 and 5.47, respectively, at DO = 20% and 4.57 and 5.12 at DO = 100%. Respiration rates were lower at low pH with q(O2) and q(CO2) values of 4.07 and 4.15 pmol/cell day at pH = 6.6 and 4.98 and 5.36 pmol/cell day at pH = 7. Temperature also impacted respiration rates with respective q(O2) and q(CO2) values of 3.97 and 4.02 pmol/cell day at 30.5°C and 5.53 and 6.25 pmol/cell day at 37.5°C. Despite these changes in q(O2) and q(CO2) values, the RQ values in this study ranged from 0.98 to 1.23 suggesting that RQ was close to unity. Real-time q(O2) and q(CO2) estimates obtained using the approach presented in this study provide additional quantitative information on cell physiology both during bioprocess development and commercial biotherapeutic manufacturing. 相似文献

One approach to improving mammalian culture productivity has been to reduce cell stress and cell death in the bioreactor, thus enhancing productivity through a longer phase of viability. Here we describe the isolation and identification of a biomarker for stress and viability loss in CHO culture. Using SELDI‐TOF mass spectrometry to profile the protein component of supernatant culture media we have identified a peak at 7.7 kDa that was associated with loss of viability toward the end of the culture and simulated stress from both toxic metabolite accumulation and nutrient depletion. The relative intensity (signal/noise ratio) of the peak increased rapidly at the onset of dropping viability toward the end of the growth phase. Also, the peak height was seen to increase significantly when cells were grown under conditions emulating ammonia accumulation and glutamine deprivation. The species has been identified as a fragment of Galectin‐1 (Gal‐1) via MS/MS fingerprinting. We propose that this peak could be utilized as a marker for early onset of stress in cell culture. This work demonstrates the efficacy of SELDI technology to identify biomarkers in mammalian cell culture and highlights its value as a tool for the monitoring and improvement of culture processes.

The development of mammalian cell perfusion cultures is still laborious and complex to perform due to the limited availability of scale-down models and limited knowledge of time- and cost-effective procedures. The maximum achievable viable cell density (VCDmax), minimum cell-specific perfusion rate (CSPRmin), cellular growth characteristics, and resulting bleed rate at steady-state operation are key variables for the effective development of perfusion cultures. In this study, we developed a stepwise procedure to use shake tubes (ST) in combination with benchtop (BR) bioreactors for the design of a mammalian cell perfusion culture at high productivity (23 pg·cell−1·day−1) and low product loss in the bleed (around 10%) for a given expression system. In a first experiment, we investigated peak VCDs in STs by the daily discontinuous medium exchange of 1 reactor volume (RV) without additional bleeding. Based on this knowledge, we performed steady-state cultures in the ST system using a working volume of 10 ml. The evaluation of the steady-state cultures allowed performing a perfusion bioreactor run at 20 × 106 cells/ml at a perfusion rate of 1 RV/day. Constant cellular environment and metabolism resulted in stable product quality patterns. This study presents a promising strategy for the effective design and development of perfusion cultures for a given expression system and underlines the potential of the ST system as a valuable scale-down tool for perfusion cultures. 相似文献

Nutrient deprivation induces autophagy as well as apoptosis in Chinese hamster ovary cell culture 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
During Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell culture for foreign protein production, cells are subjected to programmed cell death (PCD). A rapid death at the end of batch culture is accelerated by nutrient starvation. In this study, type II PCD, autophagy, as well as type I PCD, apoptosis, was found to take place in two antibody-producing CHO cell lines, Ab1 and Ab2, toward the end of batch culture when glucose and glutamine were limiting. The evidence of autophagy was observed from the accumulation of a common autophagic marker, a 16 kDa form of LC3-II during batch culture. Moreover, a significant percentage of the total cells (80% of Ab1 cells and 86% of Ab2 cells) showed autophagic vacuoles containing cytoplasmic material by transmission electron microscopy. An increased level of PARP cleavage and chromosomal DNA fragmentation supported that starvation-induced apoptosis also occurred simultaneously with autophagy. 相似文献
