Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of biomedicine technology, and specifically relates to a culture medium and applications thereof, and more specifically to a culture medium, a culture method and applications of primary intestinal cancer cells. Background Art
[0002] Colorectal cancer, caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors, is one of the most common digestive tract tumors worldwide. Survey data (Zheng Shu et al., Prevention of Colorectal Cancer, Chinese Journal of Oncology, 2004, Vol. 13, No. 1, pp. 1-2) show that colorectal cancer is one of the most common tumors, with an overall increasing incidence and mortality rate, making it a serious threat to life and health. Surgery combined with postoperative chemotherapy is currently the main treatment for colorectal cancer. Although recent advances in surgical techniques have improved survival rates for colorectal cancer patients, tumor metastasis and recurrence still pose a poor prognosis. In the precision treatment of colorectal cancer, the emergence of targeted drugs has brought hope to patients with advanced colorectal cancer. Future developments lie in the rational selection of targeted drugs and the development of personalized treatment plans. Continuous innovations in drug sensitivity testing technology have provided strong technical support for predicting the efficacy of targeted drugs, chemotherapy drugs, and combinations of targeted drugs, laying a solid foundation for personalized treatment of colorectal cancer patients.
[0003] Existing in vitro cultured colorectal cancer cell lines are mainly obtained by spontaneously immortalizing normal cells through long-term culture or transfecting them with oncogenes that promote the immortalization of normal cells. Cell lines established by traditional methods are still the mainstay of cellular, molecular and cancer biology research. However, these methods change the genetic background of the cells, and long-term cultured cell lines are also prone to genomic instability, which may lead to artificial changes in the phenotype of tumor cell lines and tumor cells in vivo. These cell lines usually lack the complex heterogeneity of primary tumors, which limits the application of these cell lines in predicting tumor cell responses and affects the accuracy of scientific research and drug development for colorectal cancer. In addition, in the process of culturing cells obtained from colorectal cancer tissue into cancer cells, conventional culture methods are difficult to obtain cancer cells. There are problems such as interference by fibroblasts during the culture process and the inability to propagate the formed clones, which limits the application of primary human colorectal cancer cells.
[0004] In 2017, Xuefeng Liu et al. used irradiated mouse fibroblasts and a Rho-associated kinase inhibitor (Y-27632) to expand epithelial-derived cells. This system has the ability to achieve unlimited growth of epithelial-derived cells without genetic manipulation (Xuefeng Liu et al., Conditional reprogramming and long-term expansion of normal and tumor cells from human biospecimens. Nat. Protoc. 2017, 12, 439). However, the method established by Xuefeng Liu et al. has a long culture cycle and cannot achieve rapid cell expansion. Co-culture of primary cells with stromal cells is inevitable, and it cannot solve a series of problems existing in culture schemes such as co-culture with stromal cells, which limits the application of this technology.

[0089] Example 1 Effects of various added factors in the culture medium of primary intestinal cancer cells on the growth of primary intestinal cancer cells
[0090] (1) Preparation of primary intestinal cancer cell culture medium
[0091] First, a basal medium containing an initial culture medium is prepared. The initial culture medium can be selected from DMEM / F12, DMEM, F12, or RPMI-1640 commonly used in the art. In this embodiment, the formula of the basal culture medium is: DMEM / F12 medium (purchased from Corning) + 100 μg / mL Primocin (purchased from InvivoGen, 0.2% (v / v), commercially available product concentration 50 mg / ml). Different types of additives (see Table 1) are added to the basal culture medium to prepare a culture medium for primary intestinal cancer cells containing different additives.
[0092] (2) Isolation and processing of primary colorectal cancer cells
[0093] 1. Sample selection
[0094] Intestinal cancer solid tumor tissue samples (intraoperative / endoscopic) were obtained from patients by professional medical staff of professional medical institutions, and all patients signed informed consent. 3 , endoscopic sample 0.025cm 3 Commercial tissue preservation solution (manufacturer: Miltenyi Biotec) was used for storage and transportation.
[0095] 2. Material Preparation
[0096] After disinfecting the surfaces of sterile 15mL centrifuge tubes, pipettes, 10mL pipettes, and sterile pipette tips, place them in a clean bench and irradiate with UV light for 30 minutes. Remove the basal culture medium from the 4°C refrigerator 30 minutes in advance, and remove the tissue digestion solution from the -20°C refrigerator 30 minutes in advance.
[0097] Tissue digestion solution: 1640 culture medium (Corning, 10-040-CVR), collagenase II (2 mg / mL), collagenase IV (2 mg / mL), DNase (50 U / mL), hyaluronidase (0.75 mg / mL), calcium chloride (3.3 mM), and BSA (10 mg / mL).
[0098] The above-mentioned collagenase II, collagenase IV, DNA enzyme, and hyaluronidase were purchased from Sigma; calcium chloride was purchased from Shanghai Shenggong Biotechnology Co., Ltd.; and BSA was purchased from Biofroxx.
[0099] 3. Isolation of Primary Colorectal Cancer Cells
[0100] 3.1 Take the tissue sample in the clean bench and place it in a culture dish. Remove the blood-stained tissue and rinse it twice with basal culture medium. Transfer the tissue to another culture dish and perform mechanical separation with a sterile scalpel. Cut the tissue into 1×1×1 mm 3 size;
[0101] 3.2 Aspirate the cut intraoperative or endoscopic tissue into a 15 mL centrifuge tube, add 5 mL of basal culture medium, mix well, and centrifuge at 1500 rpm for 4 minutes;
[0102] 3.3 Discard the supernatant and add basal culture medium and tissue digestion solution in a 1:3 ratio (Note: the amount of tissue digestion solution added is approximately 10 mL for 1 g of tumor tissue). Label the sample name and number, seal with parafilm, and digest at 37°C in a shaker (Zhichu Instrument ZQLY-180N) at 300 rpm. Observe the digestion completion every 30 minutes, judging by the absence of visible particulate matter. The digestion time is 4 hours.
[0103] 3.4 After digestion is complete, filter the undigested tissue clumps through a 100 μm filter. Rinse the tissue clumps on the filter with basal culture medium into a centrifuge tube to reduce cell loss and centrifuge at 1500 rpm for 4 minutes at 25°C.
[0104] 3.5 Discard the supernatant and observe whether there are blood cells. If there are blood cells, add 8 mL of blood cell lysis buffer (purchased from Sigma), mix well, and lyse at 4°C for 20 minutes, inverting once during the process. Centrifuge at 1500 rpm at 25°C for 4 minutes.
[0105] 3.6 Discard the supernatant and add 2 mL of basal culture medium to resuspend the cells for later use.
[0106] 4. Cell Counting and Processing
[0107] 4.1 Microscopic observation: Pipette a small amount of resuspended cells and spread them flatly in a culture dish. Observe the density and morphology of cancer cells under a microscope (CNOPTEC, BDS400).
[0108] 4.2 Viable cell counting: 12 μL of the resuspended cell suspension was added to 12 μL of trypan blue dye (Shanghai Sangon Biotech Co., Ltd.), mixed thoroughly, and 20 μL was added to a cell counting plate (Countstar, specification: 50 plates / box). The percentage of viable large cells (cell size >10 μm) was calculated using a cell counter (Countstar, IC1000) as follows: number of viable cells / total number of cells × 100%.
[0109] (3) Culture of primary colorectal cancer cells
[0110] The primary colorectal cancer cells isolated from three colorectal cancer tissues (numbered OE(O)001, OE(O)002, and OE(E)003) according to the above step (2) were resuspended in basal culture medium and counted. The basal culture medium was mixed with matrigel ( 356231) were mixed on ice, 300 μL was taken and plated, incubated in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator for 25 to 35 minutes, preferably 30 minutes, and the supernatant was discarded. The culture medium containing the different components in Table 1 containing primary intestinal cancer cells was added at a rate of 4 × 10 4 Cells were added to a 48-well plate at a volume of 500 μL / well. As a control, basal medium without any additives was used. After 7-10 days of culture, when the cells reached 85% confluence, the medium was discarded and the cells were rinsed once with 100 μL of 0.05% trypsin (Gibco) per well. After aspiration, 200 μL of 0.05% trypsin was added to each well. The cells were incubated at 37°C and 5% CO₂ for 10 minutes. Complete digestion of the cells was observed under a microscope (CNOPTEC, BDS400). Digestion was terminated by adding 300 μL of DMEM / F12 medium supplemented with 10% serum (ExcellBio, FND500). 20 μL of the medium was then added to a cell counting plate (Countstar, specification: 50 plates / box) and the total number of cells was counted using a cell counter (Countstar, IC1000). The results are shown in Table 1.
[0111]
[0112] Among them, "+" indicates that compared with the basic culture medium, the culture medium with the addition of this additive has a proliferation-promoting effect on two cases of primary intestinal cancer cells isolated from intestinal cancer tissue; "-" indicates that the culture medium with the addition of this additive shows an inhibitory effect on at least one case of primary intestinal cancer cells isolated from intestinal cancer tissue; "○" indicates that the culture medium with the addition of this additive has no obvious effect on the proliferation of at least two cases of primary intestinal cancer cells isolated from intestinal cancer tissue.
[0113] Based on the above results, factors such as A8301, insulin, Y-27632, insulin-transferrin-selenium supplement, glutamine additive, neuregulin-1, bovine pituitary extract, basic fibroblast growth factor, noggin, R-spondin1, compound 1, prostaglandin E2, B27, and Forsklin were selected for further culture experiments.
[0114] Example 2 Effects of different combinations of added factors in the culture medium of primary intestinal cancer cells on the proliferation of primary intestinal cancer cells
[0115] According to the ingredients in Table 2, culture medium for primary colorectal cancer cells with different combinations of added factors were prepared to investigate the proliferation-promoting effects of different combinations of added factors on primary colorectal cancer cells.
[0116] Table 2 Preparation of different components of culture medium (concentration is final concentration)
[0117]
[0118] Primary colorectal cancer cells were obtained from colorectal cancer tissues (numbered OE(O)001, OE(O)002, OE(E)060, and OE(E)071) according to the method of step (2) of Example 1. The obtained cell suspension was divided into 16 equal parts and centrifuged at 1500 rpm for 4 minutes. After centrifugation, 200 μL of BM and No. 1 to 15 culture medium were used to resuspend the cells. The basal culture medium was mixed with matrigel ( 356231) were mixed on ice, 300 μL was plated on a 48-well plate, and incubated in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator for 25 to 35 minutes, preferably 30 minutes, and the supernatant was discarded. 4 pieces / cm 2 Cells were seeded into a 48-well plate (20,000 cells per well), and the volume of each well was filled to 1 mL with the corresponding culture medium. The cells were mixed thoroughly. After surface disinfection, the cells were cultured in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator (purchased from Thermo Fisher Scientific).
[0119] When the cells in the 48-well plate grow to more than 85%, the culture medium is discarded and rinsed once with 100 μL of 0.05% trypsin (purchased from Gibco). After absorbing the solution, 200 μL of 0.05% trypsin is added to each well. The cells are placed in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator for 10 minutes. The cells are observed under a microscope (CNOPTEC, BDS400) to ensure complete digestion. 300 μL of DMEM culture medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum is added to terminate the digestion. 20 μL is taken and added to a cell counting plate (Countstar, specification: 50 plates / box). The total number of cells is counted using a cell counter (Countstar, IC1000). The results obtained from the primary intestinal cancer cells of samples OE(O)001, OE(O)002, OE(E)060, and OE(E)071 isolated from intraoperative and endoscopic tissues are shown in Figure 2. Figure 1 .
[0120] according to Figure 1 The results show that compared with the basal culture medium, the use of the above-mentioned No. 1 to No. 15 culture media can promote the proliferation of primary intestinal cancer cells to varying degrees. When the added factors A8301 (No. 2), noggin (No. 12), and Forsklin (No. 15) are omitted, the proliferation-promoting effect of the culture medium formula is more obvious. Therefore, when the culture medium containing insulin, Y-27632, insulin-transferrin-selenium supplement, glutamine additive, neuregulin-1, bovine pituitary extract, basic fibroblast growth factor, R-spondin1, compound 1, prostaglandin E2, B27 and other added ingredients is used to culture primary intestinal cancer cells, the proliferation effect is the best.

[0154] Example 5 Histochemical Identification of Primary Intestinal Cancer Cell Culture
[0155] A 0.25 cm spherical ... 3Cancer tissues of different sizes were immersed in 1 mL of 4% paraformaldehyde for fixation. Sample OE(O)015 was continuously cultured to the fifth generation using the intestinal cancer primary cell culture medium CA-2 of the present invention using the method of Example 4. The intestinal cancer primary cells fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde were embedded in paraffin and cut into 4 μm thick tissue sections using a microtome. Conventional immunohistochemistry was then performed (for specific steps, see Li et al., Nature Communication, (2018) 9: 2983). The primary antibodies used were ki-67, CK20, CDX-2, and villin (all purchased from CST).
[0156] Figures 4A-4D 5A-5D are comparative diagrams of the immunohistochemical results of the original tissue cells and the primary intestinal cancer cells obtained by culturing the cells with the intestinal cancer primary culture medium CA-2 of the present invention.

[0158] Primary colorectal cancer cells were obtained from four colorectal cancer endoscopic specimens (numbered OE(E)067, OE(E)071, OE(E)090, and OE(E)099) according to the method of step (2) of Example 1. The obtained primary colorectal cancer cells were cultured at a viable cell density of 2.4×10 4 pieces / cm 2Inoculate in T12.5 culture flasks (300,000 cells per flask). Use a pipette to gently add 4 mL of the intestinal cancer primary cell culture medium CA-2 of the present invention at room temperature to each T12.5 culture flask. After surface disinfection, place in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator (purchased from Thermo Fisher Scientific) for culture. After 5 to 9 days of cell culture, subculture and count, and record the number of days in culture until subculture, and the number of days in culture until subculture is regarded as a culture cycle. Continue to culture under the experimental conditions, and amplify the amplified cells for different generations. After each generation, count and record the corresponding culture cycle, and calculate PD according to the formula Population Doubling (PD) = 3.32 × log10 (total number of cells after digestion / initial number of cells seeded). For the formula, see Chapman et al., Stem Cell Research & Therapy 2014, 5: 60.
[0159] Figure 6 The growth curves of four primary cells cultured using the intestinal cancer primary cell culture medium CA-2 of the present invention, drawn using Graphpad Prism software, are shown. The horizontal axis represents the number of days of cell culture, and the vertical axis represents the cumulative cell proliferation multiple, which represents the multiple of cell expansion during the culture cycle. The larger the value, the more times the cells expand within a certain cycle, that is, the more cells are expanded. The slope represents the rate of cell expansion. Figure 6 It can be confirmed that when the primary intestinal cancer cells cultured in the culture medium of the present invention are continuously cultured and expanded for at least 80 days, the cell expansion rate remains basically unchanged and still has the ability to continue to expand.

[0172]
[0173] 3. High-throughput dosing
[0174] Remove the prepared drug plate, place it at room temperature, and centrifuge it in a Beckman centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 1 minute. High-throughput drug addition was performed using a high-throughput automated sample delivery system (Perkin Elmer JANUS). 0.1 μL of the selected drug at the corresponding concentration was added to each well of a 384-well plate containing primary human colorectal cancer cells. After drug addition, the 384-well plate was surface-disinfected and moved to an incubator. Cell viability was measured 72 hours later.

Remove the 384-well plate to be tested from the incubator and add 10 μL of CellTiter-Glo luminescent reagent to each well. Let it stand for 10 minutes, then mix thoroughly and analyze using a multi-function microplate reader (Perkin Elmer Envision).
[0177] 5. Data processing
[0178] The cell inhibition rate after different drugs acted on cells was calculated according to the formula: cell inhibition rate (%) = 100% - chemiluminescence value of drug-treated wells / chemiluminescence value of control wells × 100%. The half inhibition rate (IC) of drug action on cells was calculated using GraphPad Prism software. 50 The results are shown in Figures 8A-8F .
[0179] Depend on Figures 8A-8F It was confirmed that drug screening using primary colorectal cancer cells cultured in the CA-2 culture medium of the present invention showed essentially consistent inhibitory effects of the same drug on cells of different passages (inhibition curves remained essentially the same). Cells from the same patient exhibited varying sensitivities to different drugs at their maximum blood concentrations in the human body. These results can be used to assess the clinical effectiveness of this drug in colorectal cancer patients and demonstrate the stable drug sensitivity of tumor cells of different passages cultured using the present method.
