[0270] Preparation of bronchial organotypic cultures

[0271] These are based on a work titled Clonetics from Lonza (Basel, Switzerland) TM B-ALI TM Protocol for the preparation of air-liquid interface media. Briefly, normal human bronchial epithelial cells (NHBEC) were expanded in complete B-ALI medium at 37°C in 5% CO2 (90% relative humidity) until approximately 80% confluent. Cells were trypsinized, washed and resuspended. 35,000 cells were seeded onto type I collagen-coated insert ( root Switzerland) and the inserts were placed in multiwell plates prefilled with complete B-ALI medium (Lonza) and incubated for 3 days. The top medium was then removed and the basal medium was replaced with complete B-ALI medium. The air-lifted inserts were returned to the incubator, and the media was replaced every 2 to 3 days. In addition, a top wash is performed once a week during the ripening period. Cultures were used at maturity, usually 4 weeks after air lifting. Morphologic...

[0273] Preparation of liver spheroids

[0274] such as GravityTRAP from InSphero TM Prepare liver spheroids as described in the ULA plate manual. Briefly, HepaRG cells were first thawed at 37°C for 2 minutes and then mixed into 9 ml of pre-warmed William's E medium (ThermoFisher Scientific, reference 12551032) supplemented with thawed, coated and Universal Supplement (ThermoFisher Scientific, ref. HPRG770) and GlutaMAX solution (ThermoFisher Scientific, ref. 35050061). Cells were then centrifuged at 400 xg for 2 minutes, and the medium was replaced with fresh William's E medium with the same supplements as above. then Each well of a spheroid microplate (ref. 4520) distributes approximately 5000 cells. After 5 days, the medium was replaced by fresh William's E medium (ThermoFisher Scientific, ref. 12551032) supplemented with HepaRG maintenance and metabolism supplement (ThermoFisher Scientific, ref. HPRG720) and GlutaMAX solution (ThermoFisher Scientific, ref. 35050061). ...

[0276] Determination of Morphology of Bronchial Organotypic Cultures and Hepatic Spheroids

[0277] Morphology of bronchial organotypic cultures assessed after fixation and paraffin embedding, sectioning, and staining with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) and alcian blue, as previously described in Toxicol Sci. 2015 9 Jan;147(1):207-21.

[0278] Hepatic spheroid morphology was assessed after immunostaining. Briefly, liver spheroids were fixed overnight in 4% fresh paraformaldehyde. After blocking in 1% Triton X-100 / 0.2% fish skin gelatin (FSG), the spheroids were treated with mouse anti-cytokeratin 19 (1 / 500, Abcam, Cambridge) diluted in PBS with 0.1% FSG. , UK) stained for 24 hours. Primary antibodies were visualized using FITC-labeled goat anti-mouse antibody (1 / 500, Abcam). Spheroids were then mounted using ProLong Diamond Antifade Agent (Thermo Fisher) with DAPI and evaluated by high content imaging on the Cellinsight™ CX7 platform (Thermo Fisher).

Abstract

There is described an isolated 3-dimensional liver spheroid wherein said spheroid has: increased ATP content as compared to a 3-dimensional liver spheroid cultured in Complete William E medium alone;the same or increased activity of cytochrome P450 1A1 and cytochrome P450 1B1 as compared to a 3-dimensional liver spheroid cultured in Complete William E medium alone; and increased albumin secretionas compared to a 3-dimensional liver spheroid cultured in William E medium alone.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of cell culture, in particular to 3-dimensional cell culture, 3-dimensional co-culture and its method and application. Background technique [0002] Toxicology studies using 2-dimensional cell culture systems have been used to examine the effects of drugs on cell survival and enzyme activity, among others. While growing cells in flat layers on plastic surfaces is straightforward and allows the study of several aspects of cell physiology and response to stimuli, it fails to reflect the actual structure and architecture of an organ. In 2D monolayers, the extracellular matrix, cell-cell, and cell-matrix interactions essential for differentiation, proliferation, and cellular function are lost. [0003] The 3-dimensional culture system can form functional tissues with characteristics similar to those observed in vivo. Compared to 2-dimensional culture systems, 3-dimensional cell cultures allow cells to interact w...
