Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of cell culture and relates to a serum-free culture medium for MRC-5 cells with defined components and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Human diploid cells have a normal karyotype, are non-oncogenic, and are consistent with the human genome. These cells contain no exogenous animal components or neurotoxins and are therefore widely used in vaccine production. Vaccines produced using these cells require fewer injections and have relatively mild adverse reactions, making them safe and effective. As a key cell matrix for vaccine production, human diploid cells have garnered widespread attention. The main human diploid cell lines currently used in vaccine production include WI-38 (human embryonic lung cells), MRC-5 (human embryonic lung fibroblasts), 2BS (human embryonic lung cells), and KMB-17 (human embryonic lung diploid cells).

[0003] MRC-5 cells, derived from human fetal lung tissue, are a diploid human cell line with numerous advantages, including excellent proliferation capacity, robust proliferation stability, and genetic characteristics closer to those of normal human cells. They have been widely used in a variety of fields, including vaccine production, cell biology research, genetics research, and drug development. Research continues to advance both domestically and internationally, with significant results.

[0004] However, all culture media for culturing human diploid cells require the addition of bovine serum. As one of the most important components in cell culture media, bovine serum contains a variety of peptides, proteins, fats, carbohydrates, growth factors, hormones, and inorganic salts, providing essential nutrients for cell growth. However, bovine serum has a complex composition, contains pathogenic factors, and is susceptible to contamination. Exogenous factors contained in the serum can cause adverse immune responses, and differences between batches of bovine serum can affect quality control in vaccine production. Furthermore, bovine serum is expensive and requires refrigerated storage. A 10% serum concentration in growth media places high demands on vaccine manufacturers for refrigerated storage. Therefore, research and development of serum-free culture media for human diploid cells is crucial for vaccine production.

[0005] Serum-free culture medium is a synthetic culture medium developed on the basis of complete culture medium. It can maintain the growth and reproduction of cells in vitro for a long time without adding serum. It can meet the needs of cell growth while avoiding the adverse effects of animal serum. At present, in the process of producing vaccines using human diploid cells at home and abroad, conventional culture medium containing low concentration of serum is mainly used. Some serum-free culture medium production technologies have been developed at home and abroad (such as: Sigma-Aldrich, EX-CELL ®EBx™ Serum-Free Medium, Catalog No. 14531c; Gibco, Diploid Production Serum-Free Medium, Catalog No. A3969002; Gibco, Gibco™ VP-SFM, Catalog No. 11681020). Although breakthroughs have been made in using serum-free media to culture diploid cells for vaccine production, the production technology remains immature. Low-concentration serum, approximately 2%, is often added to the culture medium during use, preventing true serum-free culture and posing a safety risk to the vaccine. Some serum-free media may not provide certain nutrients, vitamins, or other molecules found in serum that support cell growth, potentially leading to poor cell function. Furthermore, these serum-free media are often expensive, potentially impacting research budgets. Summary of the Invention

[0009] The third aspect of the present invention discloses the use of the above-mentioned serum-free medium in culturing cells, which comprises adding cells to the serum-free medium and culturing the cells in vitro at 37°C and 5% CO2; The cells include MRC-5 cells.

[0010] The fourth aspect of the present invention discloses a method for preparing the above-mentioned yam glycopeptide, which comprises: weighing a certain amount of fresh yam, peeling it, adding water at a material-liquid ratio of 1:10, beating and mixing, adjusting the pH to 8.6, adding 1.5% alkaline protease by weight of the fresh yam, and reacting on a shaker at 49°C for 8 hours to obtain an enzymatic hydrolyzate; after inactivating the enzyme in a 60°C water bath, vacuum filtration is performed to remove the precipitate to obtain a crude yam glycopeptide extract; filtering with a 0.45 μm microporous filter membrane to obtain a glycopeptide extract, and using HPLC to detect the peptide distribution of the yam peptide.

The present invention selects yam glycopeptides with a peptide size of 180 to 1000 Da.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: The serum-free culture medium of MRC-5 cells provided by the present invention contains L-glutamine, L-histidine, L-isoleucine, L-leucine, L-lysine, L-methionine, L-phenylalanine, L-threonine, L-tryptophan and L-valine, which are essential amino acids for protein synthesis. Glutamine plays an important role in cell metabolism. The nitrogen it contains is the basic source of purines and pyrimidines in the synthesis of nucleic acids, and is also an important component for the synthesis of phosphoglycerol. Other amino acid components are non-essential amino acids. When the cell density is low, these amino acids have little effect on the growth of the cells. However, when high-density cell culture is carried out in a bioreactor, the speed at which the cells synthesize these amino acids by themselves often cannot meet their growth requirements. Therefore, providing non-essential amino acids can ensure normal cell proliferation.

[0012] The serum-free culture medium for MRC-5 cells provided by the present invention includes inorganic salts, which play a crucial role in regulating metabolic pathways, enzyme, and signaling molecule activities. Calcium chloride regulates cell membrane permeability, facilitating the excretion of metabolites. Ferric nitrate maintains cell growth. Magnesium sulfate promotes nucleic acid synthesis. Potassium chloride and sodium chloride are essential for maintaining cellular material transport and energy production. Sodium bicarbonate, dipotassium hydrogen phosphate, and potassium dihydrogen phosphate maintain normal cellular osmotic pressure.

[0013] The serum-free culture medium for MRC-5 cells provided by the present invention contains folic acid, nicotinamide, pyridoxal, pantothenate, riboflavin and thiamine, all of which are components of coenzymes; choline and inositol can serve as substrates for lipid synthesis; and the high reducing ability of vitamins can also protect cells from damage by oxidative free radicals.

[0014] The serum-free culture medium for MRC-5 cells provided by the present invention contains yam glycopeptide, which is rich in antioxidant components and can help neutralize free radicals in cells, reduce oxidative stress, and thus protect cells from damage; it can also promote the proliferation of fibroblasts; stimulate anabolism, and improve cell nutrient absorption, thereby promoting cell growth and repair.

[0015] The serum-free culture medium for MRC-5 cells provided by the present invention comprises amino acid nutrients, inorganic salt nutrients and serum substitutes, and the absorbance at 450 nm (OD 450 ) as the response value, the Plackett-Burman experimental design was used to screen out some amino acid nutrients, inorganic salt nutrients and serum replacements that affect cell growth viability. After screening out the important factors, a steepest climbing experiment was performed to gradually change the concentration of the key factors and observe the effect on cell growth viability, so as to determine the optimal range of each factor. After determining the concentration range, the central combination experiment was used to explore the interaction and quadratic effects of each important factor, maximize the positive impact on cell growth, and thus establish a regression model to predict the effect of different factor combinations on cell growth viability. Finally, the optimal conditions were verified, the cell growth experiment was repeated according to the optimal conditions, and compared with the control group to verify whether the quality of the culture medium has been improved.

Cell morphology was observed every day starting from the second day. After five consecutive subcultures, cell images were collected at the same growth time.

[0030] To verify the effect of the culture medium on cell growth stability, MRC-5 cells were subcultured. Based on a large amount of experimental data and general experience in the field of cell culture, the effect of the culture medium on cell growth stability will gradually become apparent as the number of subcultures increases during the subculture process. When the cells are subcultured to the fifth generation, the cells have adapted to the culture environment and the potential effect of the culture medium on cell growth has accumulated to a level that can be effectively observed. Therefore, after the MRC-5 cells are subcultured to the fifth generation, their growth status is observed using conventional cell observation methods such as microscopy to evaluate the stability of the culture medium on cell growth.

[0031] After the MRC-5 cells were passaged to the fifth generation, 1×10 5 cell / cm 2The cells were inoculated into a 96-well plate using Example 1, Example 2, Example 3, Example 4, a domestic commercial serum-free culture medium, and a foreign commercial serum-free culture medium, respectively. After the cells grew to 70%-90%, CCK-8 reagent was added to detect the absorbance at 450 nm as a blank. After 2 h, the absorbance value was detected again, and the difference between the two was taken as the cell viability.

[0032] Experimental results The results are as follows Figures 1-6 As shown, normal cell growth was observed in the culture media of Examples 1, 2, 3, and 4. Under a microscope, the cells exhibited elongated, fibrous growth, reaching or even exceeding the levels of serum-free culture media both domestically and internationally. Cell viability assay results were consistent with those of cell growth. Compared to Example 1, Example 2 added yam glycopeptide at a concentration of 1 mg / L, while maintaining the same concentrations of other nutrients. Comparison of the cell culture conditions and cell viability of Example 2 and Example 1 under the same experimental incubation time revealed that the cell density and cell viability in the cell culture system corresponding to Example 2 were significantly higher than those in Example 1. This demonstrates that, under the conditions established in this experiment, the addition of yam glycopeptide has a positive effect on promoting cell proliferation and increasing cell density. In Examples 3 and 4, the concentration of yam glycopeptide was adjusted, and the concentrations of the corresponding amino acid nutrients were adjusted to maintain the balance between the system's osmotic pressure and nutrients. The experimental results showed that the cells in Examples 3 and 4 also exhibited better growth (the same applies here) and viability compared to those in Example 1, demonstrating that yam peptide can be a nutrient-enhancing component in the culture medium.

[0033] The above embodiments are preferred implementations of the present invention, but the implementations of the present invention are not limited to the above embodiments. Any other changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, and simplifications that do not deviate from the spirit and principles of the present invention should be considered as equivalent replacement methods and also fall within the scope of protection of the present invention and are included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
