One challenge in biotechnology industry is to produce recombinant proteins with prolonged serum half-life. One strategy for enhancing the serum half-life of proteins includes increasing the molecular weight of the protein of interest by fusion to the Fc part of an antibody. In this context, we have expressed a homodimer fusion protein in CHO cells which consists of two identical polypeptide chains, in which our target protein, recombinant human erythropoietin (rhEpo), is N-terminally linked with the Fc part of a human IgG1 molecule. In the present study, culture supernatant of a stable clone was collected and purified by affinity chromatography prior characterization. We emphasized product quality aspects regarding the fusion protein itself and in addition, post-translational characterization of the subunits in comparison to human antibodies and rhEpo. However, overproduction of recombinant proteins in mammalian cells is well established, analysis of product quality of complex products for different purposes, such as product specification, purification issues, batch to batch consistency and therapeutical consequences, is required. Besides product quantification by ELISA, N-acetylneuraminic acid quantification in microtiterplates, quantitative isoform pattern and entire glycan profiling was performed. By using these techniques for the characterization of the recombinant human Epo-Fc (rhEpo-Fc) molecule itself and furthermore, for the separate characterization of both subunits, we could clearly show that no significant differences in the core glycan structures compared to rhEpo and human antibody N-glycans were found. The direct comparison with other rhEpo-Fc fusion proteins failed, because no appropriate data were found in the literature. 相似文献

A new scalable liposome production system is presented, which is based on the ethanol injection technique. The system permits liposome manufacture regardless of production scale, as scale is determined only by free disposable vessel volumes. Once the parameters are defined, an easy scale up can be performed by just changing the process vessels. These vessels are fully sterilizeable and all raw materials are transferred into the sanitized and sterilized system via 0.2 microm filters to guarantee an aseptic production.Liposome size can be controlled by the local lipid concentration at the injection point depending on process parameters like injection pressure, lipid concentration and injection rate. These defined process parameters are furthermore responsible for highly reproducible results with respect to vesicle diameters and encapsulation rates Compared to other technologies like the film method which is normally followed by size reduction through high pressure homogenization, ultrasonication or extrusion, no mechanical forces are needed to generate homogeneous and narrow distributed liposomes.Another important advantage of this method is the suitability for the entrapment of many different drug substances such as large hydrophilic proteins by passive encapsulation, small amphiphilic drugs by a one step remote loading technique or membrane association of antigens for vaccination approaches. 相似文献

Background
Neosporosis is an infectious disease primarily of cattle and dogs, caused by intracellular parasite, Neospora caninum. Neosporosis appears to be a major cause of abortion in dairy cattle worldwide and causes to huge economic loss to dairy industry.Results
Recombinant surface associated antigen 1 (NcSAG1), NcSAG1 related sequence 2 (NcSRS2) and the dense granule antigen 2 (NcGRA2) of N. caninum were expressed either in silkworm or in Escherichia coli and purified. The purified recombinant proteins bound to the N. caninum-specific antibodies in serum samples from infected cattle as revealed by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). By co-immobilizing these recombinant proteins, a novel indirect ELISA was developed for detection of neosporosis. With the use of 32 serum samples, comprising 12 positive serum samples and 20 negative serum samples, the sensitivity and specificity of the assay were found to be 91.7 and 100%, respectively. Seventy-two serum samples from dairy farms were also tested and one was diagnosed with neosporasis with both this method and a commercial assay.Conclusions
A diagnostic method employing recombinant proteins of N. caninum was developed. The method showed high sensitivity and specificity. Diagnostic test with field serum samples suggested its applicability to the practical diagnosis of neosporosis. 相似文献24.

Vaccination against human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) requires an immunogen which will elicit a protective immunity against viruses that show a high degree of genetic polymorphism. Therefore, the identification of neutralizing epitopes which are shared by many strains would be useful. In previous studies, we established a human monoclonal antibody (2F5) that neutralizes a variety of laboratory strains and clinical isolates of HIV-1. In the present report, we define the amino acid sequence Glu-Leu-Asp-Lys-Trp-Ala (ELDKWA) on the ectodomain of gp41 as the epitope recognized by this antibody. The sequence was found to be conserved in 72% of otherwise highly variable HIV-1 isolates. Escape mutants were not detected in cells infected with HIV-1 isolates MN and RF in the presence of antibody 2F5. Since sequence variability of neutralizing epitopes is considered to be a major obstacle to HIV-1 vaccine development, the conserved B-cell epitope described here is a promising candidate for inclusion in a vaccine against AIDS. 相似文献

In this review the state of the art in animal cell technology, using suspension culture techniques is updated as far as the end of 1980. We have tried to discuss, on a broad basis, the current status and potential developments of both, the purely biological and the biochemical engineering aspects which may be important to improve the performance and design of animal cell technologies. The process economics could be considerably improved by the use of transformed animal cell substrates, the use of cheaper cultivation media and by methodological and engineering means. Most of these aspects are in the state of realization. Nevertheless, for a great variety of biological active substances which do not require so – or posttranslational processing, recombinant DNA-techniques (e.g. genetic engineering) are a promising alternative for the production of animal cell derived substances. 相似文献

A method for preparative isolation of human monoclonal antibody isoproteins is described in the present paper. A human monoclonal antibody directed against the transmembrane protein gp 41 from the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) was used in this study. The antibody belongs to the IgG1 subtype and exhibits antibody dependent cellular cytotoxicity. The resolving power of conventional preparative protein separation techniques such as ion-exchange chromatography, chromatofocusing and lectin affinity chromatography is too poor for a complete separation of isoproteins. The more sophisticated technique of chromatofocusing on FPLC-based material (Mono P, Pharmacia) did not satisfy our expectation. With semipreparative IEF in immobilized pH gradients we were able to prepare the different isoproteins of a human monoclonal antibody in milligram amounts. No significant difference between the single isoproteins with respect to specificity and avidity to the recombinant antigen (rec gp 160) was detected. Therefore, we assume that the separation conditions did not influence the immunochemical nature of the antibody and significant denaturation and/or precipitation of the IgG did not occur. Furthermore the method affords preparative separation with resolution equivalent to analytical runs. Experiments for scale up and further characterization of isoproteins (carbohydrate composition, amino acid analysis, half life times etc.) are in progress. 相似文献

Simian-human immunodeficiency viruses (SHIV) allow the evaluation of antiviral strategies that target the envelope glycoproteins of the human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1) in macaques. We previously protected neonates from oral challenge with cell-free SHIV-vpu+ by passive immunization with synergistic human neutralizing monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) (Baba et al., Nat Med 6:200-206, 2000). mAbs were administered prenatally to pregnant dams and postnatally to the neonates. Here, we used solely postnatal or postexposure mAb treatment, thus significantly reducing the amount of mAbs necessary. All neonatal monkeys were also protected with these abbreviated mAb regimens. Our results are directly relevant for humans because we used mAbs that target HIV-1 envelope glycoproteins. Thus, the large-scale use of passive immunization with neutralizing mAbs may be feasible in human neonates. The mAbs, being natural human proteins, can be expected to have low toxicity. Passive immunization has promise to prevent intrapartum as well as milk-borne virus transmission from HIV-1-infected women to their infants. 相似文献

Synergistic Neutralization of Simian-Human Immunodeficiency Virus SHIV-vpu+ by Triple and Quadruple Combinations of Human Monoclonal Antibodies and High-Titer Anti-Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Immunoglobulins 下载免费PDF全文
An Li Hermann Katinger Marshall R. Posner Lisa Cavacini Susan Zolla-Pazner Miroslaw K. Gorny Joseph Sodroski Ting-Chao Chou Timothy W. Baba Ruth M. Ruprecht 《Journal of virology》1998,72(4):3235-3240
We have tested triple and quadruple combinations of human monoclonal antibodies (MAbs), which are directed against various epitopes on human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) envelope glycoproteins, and a high-titer anti-HIV-1 human immunoglobulin (HIVIG) preparation for their abilities to neutralize a chimeric simian-human immunodeficiency virus (SHIV-vpu+). This virus encodes the HIV-1 strain IIIB env, tat, rev, and vpu genes. The quantitative nature of the Chou-Talalay method (Adv. Enzyme Regul. 22:27–55, 1984) allows ranking of various combinations under identical experimental conditions. Of all triple combinations tested, the most potent neutralization was seen with MAbs 694/98D plus 2F5 plus 2G12 (directed against domains on V3, gp41, and gp120, respectively) as measured by the total MAb concentration required to reach 90% neutralization (90% effective concentration [EC90], 2.0 μg/ml). All triple combinations involving MAbs and/or HIVIG that were tested yielded synergy with combination index values of <1; the dose reduction indices (DRIs) ranged from 3.1 to 26.2 at 90% neutralization. When four MAbs (the previous three plus MAb F105, directed against the CD4 binding site) were combined, higher neutralization potency (EC90, 1.8 μg/ml) and a higher degree of synergy compared to any triple combination were seen. The mean DRIs of the quadruple combination were approximately twice that of the most synergistic triple combination. We conclude that human MAbs targeting different HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein epitopes exhibit strong synergy when used in combination, a fact that could be exploited clinically for passive immunoprophylaxis against HIV-1. 相似文献
