Productivity Studies Utilizing Recombinant CHO Cells In Stirred-Tank Bioreactors: A Comparative Study Between The Pitch-Blade And The Packed-Bed Bioreactor SystemsHatton, Taylor Stephen 01 May 2012 (has links)
A recombinat Chinese Hamster Ovary (rCHO) cell line designated as CHO SEAP was utilized in this investigation to optimize protein production. Two bench top stirred-tank bioreactors, namely a pitched-blade and a packed-bed basket bioreactor, were utilized for a comparative study to determine which bioreactor would produce the best results in terms of protein production. The objective of this research project was to provide basic data that shows cells cultured in a packed-bed basket bioreactor in perfusion mode will generate more protein product than cells in batch mode suspension culture with a pitched-blade bioreactor. The packed-bed bioreactor creates a homeostatic environment similar to the environment found in vivo, where waste products are constantly removed and fresh nutrients are replenished. Closed batch cultures do not provide a homeostatic environment. In batch culture systems, nutrients are depleted and waste products accumulate. The results from this experiment could help investigators involved in protein and/or vaccine production facilities select the appropriate bioreactor and mode of operation to optimize cell productivity for generation of a specific protein product. CHO cells have been used for the production of vaccines, recombinant therapeutic proteins, and monoclonal antibodies, and these cells are now the cell line of choice in the biopharmaceutical industry. Traditional vaccine production methods in egg embryos are slow and outdated, whereas roller bottle-based cell culture techniques are time consuming and have limited scalability. These limitations justify the need for development of stirred tank bioreactors. Cells cultured in a packed-bed bioreactor are not exposed to hydrodynamic forces, as is the case with pitched-blade bioreactors, allowing for maximum growth and protein expression. This mode of operation involves the constant removal of media depleted of nutrients and the addition of fresh media with more nutrients to keep the cells growing. Long run times decrease the constant need for re-seeding cells and re-establishing seed cultures, thus, reducing setup time and labor dramatically. Secreted products are automatically separated from cells in perfusion, eliminating filtration and membrane fouling. A detailed description of both modes of operation are discussed in this thesis.

Produção e purificação da glicocerebrosidase humana recombinante expressa por célula CHO em meio livre de soro fetal bovino / Production and purification of recombinant human glucocerebrosidase expressed by CHO cells in serum free mediumCassundé, Bruna Cristine Fernandes 02 February 2017 (has links)
A produção de proteínas recombinantes, principalmente para uso farmacêutico, tem sido intensamente estudada, juntamente com suas propriedades físico-químicas, o que possibilita uma melhor escolha da técnica de purificação, e assim, evitar perdas no rendimento e custos elevados. A glicocerebrosidase (GCR) é uma enzima lisossomal, e sua deficiência ocasiona um distúrbio autossômico recessivo denominado doença de Gaucher. Atualmente o tratamento para essa patologia é por meio da Terapia de Reposição Enzimática (TRE), a qual tem sido realizada com grande êxito. Tendo em vista fornecer dados que possam auxiliar na redução do número de etapas cromatográficas no processo de downstream, este trabalho teve como objetivo, a purificação da GCR expressa por células de Ovário de Hamster Chinês (CHO), em meio livre de soro fetal bovino (SFB). Para se alcançar tais resultados, realizou-se o cultivo das células CHO-GCR em meio quimicamente definido livre de SFB (CHO-S-SFM II). Foram realizadas três técnicas cromatográficas (troca iônica, interação hidrofóbica e afinidade), com base em suas propriedades físico-químicas. E para o ensaio da atividade enzimática, foi utilizado o substrato fluorogênico 4-Methylumbeliferyl β-D-glucopyranoside (4MU-G). As células CHO-GCR cultivadas em meio CHO-S-SFM II, apresentando viabilidade maior que 95%, e produção da GCR ativa, durante todo o período de cultivo. Os protocolos aplicados para a purificação da GCR, não apresentaram resultados significativos. Com o volume não retido após cromatografia por interação hidrofóbica, se estimou os valores de KM 2,13 e VMAX 0,0295 UFR/h para as constantes cinéticas da GCR. A diálise no processo de purificação mostrou ser uma etapa necessária para a atividade enzimática da GCR. No cultivo das células CHO-GCR para a formação do banco de trabalho, nos meios RPMI 1640 e α-MEM, ambos com a adição de 10% SFB, não houve diferença significativa no crescimento entre eles, e apresentaram 100% de viabilidade durante todo o período de cultivo. Porém, ao analisar de forma isolada a fase exponencial de cada curva, notou-se que às células cultivadas no meio RPMI 1640, apresentaram taxa de crescimento superior, às cultivadas em meio α-MEM. Concluiu-se que a expressão da GCR em meio livre de SFB, proporciona amostras menos complexas, em relação aos meios de cultura que necessitam de suplementação com SFB, o que pode reduzir o número de etapas cromatográficas, melhorando o rendimento e a redução da perda da atividade da GCR. O meio basal RPMI 1640 com a adição de SFB foi uma alternativa satisfatória para o cultivo das células CHO-GCR. Este estudo forneceu dados que podem contribuir para a melhoria do processo de purificação da GCR. Novas pesquisas podem ser desenvolvidas a fim de melhorar o processo de purificação da GCR. / The production of recombinant proteins, mainly for pharmaceutical use, has been intensively studied along with its physico-chemical properties, which allows a better choice of the purification technique, and thus avoid losses in yield and high costs. Glucocerebrosidase (GCR) is a lysosomal enzyme, and its deficiency causes an autosomal recessive disorder called Gaucher\'s disease. Currently the treatment for this pathology is through Enzymatic Replacement Therapy (ERT), which has been successfully performed. In order to provide data that may help reducing the number of chromatographic steps in the downstream process, this work aimed to purify GCR expressed by Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells in fetal bovine serum free (FBS). To achieve such results, the CHO-GCR cells were cultured in chemically defined Serum-free medium (CHO-S-SFM II). Three chromatographic techniques (ion exchange, hydrophobic interaction and affinity) were performed, based on their physicochemical properties. And for the enzymatic activity assay, the fluorogenic substrate 4-Methylumbeliferyl β-D-glucopyranoside (4MU-G) was used. CHO-GCR cells cultured in CHO-S-SFM II medium, presenting viability greater than 95% and GCR production active, throughout the culture period. The protocols applied for GCR purification did not present significant results. With the volume not retained after chromatography by hydrophobic interaction, KM values of 2.13 and VMAX 0.0295 UFR/h were estimated for GCR kinetic constants. Dialysis in the purification process was shown to be a step necessary for the enzymatic activity of GCR. In the culture of the CHO-GCR cells for the formation of the working bank, in the media RPMI 1640 and α-MEM, both with the addition of 10% FBS, there was no significant growth difference between them, and they showed 100% viability during all the growing period. However, when analyzing in isolation, the exponential phase of each curve, it was observed that the cells grown in RPMI 1640 medium showed higher growth rates, tham grown in α-MEM medium. It was concluded that the expression of GCR in serum-free medium provides less complex samples, relative to the culture media requiring FBS supplementation, which may reduce the number of chromatographic steps, improving yield and loss reduction of GCR activity. The basal medium RPMI 1640 with the addition of FBS was a satisfactory alternative for culturing the CHO-GCR cells. This study provided data that may contribute to the improvement of the GCR purification process. New research can be developed to improve the GCR purification process.

Macroscopic Modeling of Metabolic Reaction Networks and Dynamic Identification of Elementary Flux Modes by Column GenerationOddsdóttir, Hildur Æsa January 2015 (has links)
In this work an intersection between optimization methods and animal cell culture modeling is considered. We present optimization based methods for analyzing and building models of cell culture; models that could be used when designing the environment cells are cultivated in, i.e., medium. Since both the medium and cell line considered are complex, designing a good medium is not straightforward. Developing a model of cell metabolism is a step in facilitating medium design. In order to develop a model of the metabolism the methods presented in this work make use of an underlying metabolic reaction network and extracellular measurements. External substrates and products are connected via the relevant elementary flux modes (EFMs). Modeling from EFMs is generally limited to small networks, because the number of EFMs explodes when the underlying network size increases. The aim of this work is to enable modeling with more complex networks by presenting methods that dynamically identify a subset of the EFMs. In papers A and B we consider a model consisting of the EFMs along with the flux over each mode. In paper A we present how such a model can be decided by an optimization technique named column generation. In paper B the robustness of such a model with respect to measurement errors is considered. We show that a robust version of the underlying optimization problem in paper A can be formed and column generation applied to identify EFMs dynamically. In papers C and D a kinetic macroscopic model is considered. In paper C we show how a kinetic macroscopic model can be constructed from the EFMs. This macroscopic model is created by assuming that the flux along each EFM behaves according to Michaelis-Menten type kinetics. This modeling method has the ability to capture cell behavior in varied types of media, however the size of the underlying network is a limitation. In paper D this limitation is countered by developing an approximation algorithm, that can dynamically identify EFMs for a kinetic model. / I denna avhandling betraktar vi korsningen mellan optimeringsmetoder och modellering av djurcellodling.Vi presenterar optimeringsbaserade metoder för att analysera och bygga modeller av cellkulturer. Dessa modeller kan användas vid konstruktionen av den miljö som cellerna ska odlas i, dvs, medium.Eftersom både mediet och cellinjen är komplexa är det inte okomplicerat att utforma ett bra medium. Att utveckla en modell av cellernas ämnesomsättning är ett steg för att underlätta designen av mediet. För att utveckla en modell av metabolismen kommer de metoder som används i detta arbete att utnyttja ett underliggande metaboliskt reaktions\-nätverk och extracellulära mätningar. Externa substrat och produkter är sammankopplade via de relevanta elementära metaboliska vägarna (EFM).Modellering med hjälp av EFM är i allmänhet begränsad till små nätverk eftersom antalet EFM exploderar när de underliggande nätverket ökar i storlek. Målet med detta arbete är att möjliggöra modellering med mer komplexa nätverk genom att presentera metoder som dynamiskt identifierar en delmängd av EFM. I artikel A och B betraktar vi en modell som består av EFM och ett flöde över varje EFM.I artikel A presenterar vi hur en sådan modell kan bestämmas med hjälp av en optimeringsteknik som kallas kolumngenerering.I artikel A undersöker vi hur robust en sådan modell är med avseende till mätfel. Vi visar att en robust version av det underliggande optimeringsproblemet i artikel A kan konstrueras samt att kolumngenerering kan appliceras för att identifiera EFM dynamiskt. Artikel C och D behandlar en kinetisk makroskopisk modell. Vi visar i artikel C hur en sådan modell kan konstrueras från EFM.Denna makroskopiska modell är skapad genom att anta att flödet genom varje EFM beter sig enligt Michaelis-Menten-typ av kinetik. Denna modelleringsmetod har förmågan att fånga cellernas beteende i olika typer av media, men storleken på nätverket är en begränsning.I artikel D hanterar vi denna begränsing genom att utveckla en approximationsalgoritm som identifierar EFM dynamiskt för en kinetisk modell. / <p>QC 20150827</p>
