Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of bioengineering technology, and in particular to a single-cell green algae combined functional factor and an application thereof in cell cultured meat. Background Art
[0002] During the in vitro cell culture process, serum is an ideal cell growth supplement. Serum contains plasma proteins, peptides, fats, carbohydrates, growth factors, hormones and other components, providing nutrients to maintain cell growth. Although serum is an ideal supplement for cell culture, it has disadvantages such as large batch-to-batch quality differences, increased risk of zoonotic diseases, and ethical issues, which have prompted people to continue to look for substitutes for serum. So far, no substance has been found that can widely replace serum and be applied to all cell lines.
[0003] Scholars at home and abroad have discovered a series of serum substitute combinations for myeloma, CHO, BHK, Vero, and lymphocytes, such as various recombinant proteins, galactose, lipids, trace elements, vitamins, amino acids, hormones and other combinations with clear ingredients to replace serum to maintain cell function, but multiple added ingredients and basal culture medium are compounded in different proportions, the additives are redundant, and the optimization conditions are relatively complex. Although the above technology discloses some serum substitutes that can meet certain needs, there are still some defects, such as high cost, low food safety, and low serum replacement degree, which will affect the widespread use of serum substitutes in cell cultured meat. The exploration of serum substitutes is of great significance. This is also one of the research hotspots and focuses in this technical field, and it is also the driving force and starting point for the completion of the present invention.
[0004] Unicellular algae refers to lower plants that reproduce by spores. They are also a source of biological activity that promotes immunity, anti-oxidation and tissue reconstruction. The reproduction of unicellular algae is basically that the unicellular spores or zygotes leave the mother body and germinate into new individuals directly or after a short period of dormancy. Chlorella is a typical unicellular green algae, which is easy to cultivate. It can not only use light energy for autotrophy, but also use organic carbon sources for growth and reproduction under heterotrophic conditions. It also grows and reproduces quickly. It is one of the few organisms in animals and plants that can grow 4 times in 20 hours. This shows that there may be nutrients in Chlorella cells that can promote cell proliferation, and it has the potential to extract serum substitutes. Chlorella cells are rich in proteins, polypeptides, nucleic acids and other components, but due to the presence of Chlorella cell walls, intracellular substances cannot be released, so it is necessary to use certain technical means to extract intracellular active components. The prior art mentions that algae polysaccharides are added as functional ingredients in serum-free culture media for stem cell culture, but it does not specify whether they can be used as serum substitutes, nor does it mention whether other ingredients such as proteins, peptides, nucleic acids, etc. have similar substitution effects. In addition, the culture conditions required for proliferation and differentiation of different cells are different, so serum substitutes developed for different cell types are not universal. At present, most of the serum-free culture media used in muscle cell culture in the prior art have problems such as slow cell culture rate, slow cell growth, limited number of cell culture, slow cell expansion, and difficulty in achieving expanded culture, which limits the production of serum-free cell cultured meat. Summary of the invention
[0005] In order to overcome the above-mentioned problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a single-cell green algae combined functional factor, the main components of which are protein functional factors and nucleic acid functional factors. It can be directly dissolved in the basic culture medium to achieve the purpose of replacing serum, provide growth functional factor supplements for cells, promote cell proliferation and differentiation in vitro, and can be used in the preparation of cell cultured meat.
[0006] To achieve the above object, the present invention is specifically implemented by the following technical scheme: a single-cell green algae combined functional factor, the preparation method of which comprises the following steps:
[0007] (1) Freeze-thaw treatment: Weigh the single-cell green algae raw material, add water, freeze it overnight at -20 to -80°C, thaw it at room temperature, freeze and thaw it repeatedly, and centrifuge to obtain the supernatant; the green algae cell wall is broken by freeze-thaw method to extract the water-soluble active substances in the cell.
[0008] (2) Column loading: Nano-scale shrimp and crab shell powder is loaded into a chromatography column to obtain a special adsorption chromatography column device; the shrimp and crab shells are derived from the shells of aquatic animals such as shrimp and crabs, and the shells are ultra-finely ground to obtain nano-scale shell powder. Chitin is the only alkaline polysaccharide in nature. There are multiple active groups such as amino, hydroxyl, acetylamino, and glycosidic bonds in the molecular structure of chitin. It has many unique functional properties such as good biocompatibility and natural non-toxicity. At the same time, the special sugar ring structure gives the chitin molecule unique interface characteristics. Therefore, the new material based on chitin has unique biological activity and functional properties. Because of the special fibrous structure of chitin, chitin nanofibers can be obtained by mechanical action. Chitin nanofibers can adsorb negatively charged functional molecules such as proteins and nucleic acids, thereby effectively enriching functional factors.
[0009] (3) Refining and purification: The supernatant obtained in step (2) is passed through the adsorption chromatography column prepared in step (3), the effluent is collected, and the effluent is dried.
[0010] Furthermore, in step (1), water is added at a dry basis weight ratio of 1:5 to 1:20, and the mixture is repeatedly frozen and thawed 2 to 5 times.
[0011] Furthermore, step (3) adopts freeze-drying.
[0012] Furthermore, the unicellular green algae is Chlorella vulgaris. Chlorella vulgaris is a typical unicellular green algae, which is easy to culture, can not only utilize light energy for autotrophy, but also utilize organic carbon sources for growth and reproduction under heterotrophic conditions; and has a fast growth and reproduction speed, and is the only one of the very few organisms in plants and animals that can grow four times in 20 hours.
[0013] The unicellular green algae combined functional factors selected by the present invention contain a variety of cell growth factors, the main components of which are protein functional factors and nucleic acid functional factors. Cultivating fish muscle cells as a serum substitute can stimulate and maintain muscle cell proliferation and characteristic gene expression, which is completely different from stem cell proliferation. The unicellular green algae combined functional factors are used as serum substitutes to cultivate fish muscle cells, which can achieve the goal of completely replacing serum and long-term stable expansion of cultured cells. They can be applied to the production process of cell cultured meat, providing new ideas for the development of the cell cultured meat industry.
[0014] like Figure 1As shown in the figure, taking Chlorella as an example, it was found that the combined functional factors of Chlorella contain a variety of growth factors involved in cell cycle regulation and cell metabolism, such as elongation factor, transcription factor, replication factor, DNA replication factor, and kinases that regulate the proliferation of fish muscle cells, such as serine / threonine protein kinase and phosphoglycerate kinase. Serine / threonine protein kinase is mainly involved in regulating the metabolic process of muscle cells, transcription initiation / elongation / termination factors are mainly involved in the protein synthesis process, and replication factors are mainly involved in cell cycle regulation and inducing myoblast proliferation. Fetal bovine serum provides nutrients for cell proliferation, such as hormones, amino acids, proteins, growth factors, trace elements, carbohydrates, etc. Compared with fetal bovine serum, some protein functional factors of single-cell green algae water extract replace active ingredients in FBS, such as growth factors, to promote muscle cell proliferation.
[0015] The above-mentioned single-cell green algae combined functional factors are used to replace serum in cell cultured meat. It can completely replace serum for culturing muscle cells and achieve the same culture effect as 10% FBS.
[0016] Furthermore, the cell cultured meat is fish muscle.
[0017] Different cells require different culture conditions for proliferation and differentiation. Embryonic stem cells can proliferate indefinitely, but there is uncertainty in their directed differentiation into muscle cells, and they cannot be directly applied to the production of cell-cultured meat. Cell types that do not have the fate of myogenic cells themselves need to be induced before they can be used as seed cells. The fish muscle cells used in the present invention are mature immortal muscle cells differentiated from fish muscle stem cells, which can express the muscle cell characteristic factor Myf5, and further differentiate into myotubes, and then form cell-cultured meat. The single-cell green algae combined functional factors of the present invention are added to the serum-free culture medium, and the fish muscle cells are cultured in a 96-well plate for 3-7 days, which can make the fish muscle cells achieve the growth effect of adding 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) culture medium, and do not affect the stability of cell gene expression, and can also achieve expansion culture to culture bottles for continuous subculture to more than 4 generations.
[0018] A culture solution to which the above-mentioned single-cell green algae combination functional factors are added contains 0.5-1.5 mg / mL of the single-cell green algae combination functional factors. If the addition amount of the single-cell green algae combination functional factors is too low, the effect of replacing FBS to promote muscle cell proliferation is not obvious enough; if the addition amount is too high, the cell culture cost is increased, and the cell osmotic pressure is easily increased, resulting in cell wall shrinkage and cell apoptosis.
[0019] Furthermore, the method comprises: 80%-90% basal culture medium, 10% fish muscle extract, 0%-10% serum, 1% penicillin and streptomycin, 1‰ amphotericin B, and lyophilized powder of combined functional factors of unicellular green algae is dissolved in the above culture solution, filtered and sterilized to obtain a culture solution containing the combined functional factors of unicellular green algae; wherein the concentration of the culture solution containing the combined functional factors of unicellular green algae is 0.5-1.5 mg / mL.
[0020] Furthermore, the basic culture medium is L-15 dry powder culture medium aseptically prepared by adding triple distilled water, the fish muscle extract is the supernatant of muscle homogenate above the lateral line of the fish, and the serum dosage is 10%, 5%, 2%, and 0%.
[0021] The culture medium can be used for long-term in vitro expansion of muscle cells. Long-term in vitro expansion of cells requires more fetal bovine serum to maintain cell proliferation, which increases the cost of cell culture. If the amount of serum is reduced, it will be difficult to maintain multiple cell subcultures. In this example, the proliferation activity of the single-cell green algae water extract was first verified in a 96-well plate. The muscle cells were plated in a 96-well plate at a density of 1×10 5 / mL, cultured at 28°C in the absence of CO2 for 24 hours, replaced with culture medium and continued to culture for 3-7 days to achieve the expansion of muscle cells, that is, further transferred cell culture to 24-well plates, 12-well plates, 6-well plates, and T25 culture flasks for continuous subculture and expansion culture to achieve the expansion of fish muscle cells, and continuous subculture can be achieved for more than 4 generations.
[0022] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0023] (1) Based on the CCK8 method, a single-cell green algae combined functional factor that can completely replace serum to promote muscle cell proliferation was screened in a 96-well plate. The main components are protein functional factors and nucleic acid functional factors, which have no adverse effects on muscle cell growth and can meet the needs of long-term stable growth, proliferation and differentiation of muscle cells.
[0024] (2) The combined functional factors of unicellular green algae can be used as serum substitutes to culture muscle cells, which can stimulate muscle cell proliferation and maintain their differentiation potential. It can achieve the goal of completely replacing serum and expanding the culture of cells in a long-term and stable manner, and can be applied to the large-scale production process of cell-cultured meat.
[0025] (3) The single-cell green algae combined functional factor preparation process of the present invention is simple, has a high production yield, and has a good substitution effect, and can be applied to the large-scale production of serum-free cell cultured meat.
[0026] (4) When the single-cell green algae combined functional factors of the present invention are applied to fish muscle cell culture, they can be directly dissolved in the basal culture medium to achieve the purpose of replacing serum. The method of compounding with the culture medium is simple, and it has no toxic side effects on the growth of fish muscle cells. It can completely replace serum for fish muscle cell culture.

After the reaction was completed, the enzyme was inactivated in a boiling water bath for 10 min, and the supernatant was collected after centrifugation to obtain the protease degradation product of Chlorella combination functional factors, which was lyophilized.
[0066] (2) Nuclease hydrolysis: Dissolve the Chlorella combination functional factor powder in 1×PBS to prepare a solution with a concentration of 1 mg / mL, add nuclease, and react in a water bath at 37°C for 2 hours to perform nuclease hydrolysis. After the reaction is completed, inactivate the enzyme in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes, centrifuge, and take the supernatant to obtain the Chlorella combination functional factor nuclease degradation product powder, which is freeze-dried.
[0067] (3) Take fish muscle cells with a fusion rate of 80-90%, digest the cell monolayer with 300 μL of trypsin to form a cell suspension, and adjust the cell seeding density to 1×10 5 / mL, 100μL per well was plated on a 96-well plate and cultured in an incubator at 28℃ for 24h.

[0068] Experimental results: Figure 5 As shown, Figure 5 As shown in the figure, after the Chlorella combined functional factors were treated with proteases and nucleases, the cell proliferation activity was significantly reduced, indicating that the main active ingredients in the substitute were protein functional factors and nucleic acid functional factors. The Chlorella combined functional factors contain a variety of growth factors involved in cell cycle regulation and cell metabolism, such as elongation factors, transcription factors, replication factors, and DNA replication factors, and contain kinases that regulate the proliferation of fish muscle cells, such as serine / threonine protein kinases and phosphoglycerate kinases. Serine / threonine protein kinases are mainly involved in regulating muscle cell metabolism, transcription initiation / elongation / termination factors are mainly involved in protein synthesis, and replication factors are mainly involved in cell cycle regulation and inducing myoblast proliferation. Therefore, some protein functional factors in the unicellular green algae water extract can replace active ingredients such as growth factors in FBS to promote muscle cell proliferation.
[0069] In summary, it can be seen that the present invention screened and obtained a single-cell green algae combined functional factor that can completely replace serum to promote the proliferation of fish muscle cells in a 96-well plate according to the CCK8 method, and explored that the condition for adding the substance to the low-serum culture medium is 0.5-1.5 mg / mL, and the cells can achieve an effect equivalent to 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) after culturing the cells for a period of time; the single-cell green algae combined functional factor culture medium is applied to the in vitro expanded culture of fish muscle cells, and continuous subculture can be achieved to more than 4 generations, and the final harvested cell number is higher than that of the 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) group; at the same time, the single-cell green algae combined functional factor does not affect the stable expression of the characteristic genes of muscle cells in the process of promoting the proliferation of fish muscle cells, and has no adverse effect on the growth of fish muscle cells. It is an effective and very promising serum substitute and culture medium supplement, which can be applied to the production process of cell cultured meat.
[0070] It should be noted that, although the specific embodiments of the present invention have been described, those skilled in the art may make various modifications and improvements to the present invention based on the basic concept of the invention. As long as they do not deviate from the basic concept of the present invention, they should all be within the scope of protection of the present invention.
