Detailed Description of the Invention
[0001] This application claims priority from two prior applications, filed with the State Intellectual Property Office of China on April 9, 2019, bearing patent application number 201910281978.2 and entitled "DMSO-free cryopreservation solution and preparation method thereof," and patent application number 201910281986.7 and entitled "Peptide compound and cryopreservation solution containing the compound." Both applications are incorporated herein by reference in their entireties.
[0002] Technical Field The present invention belongs to the technical field of biomedical materials, and specifically relates to a DMSO-free cryopreservation solution and a method for preparing the same.
[0003] Background technology Since its introduction, cryopreservation technology has become an essential research method in the natural sciences and is widely adopted. With the rise in living standards and advances in medical technology, cryopreservation of human germ cells (sperm, oocytes), gonadal tissue, and other tissues has become an important means of preserving fertility. Furthermore, as the world's population ages rapidly, the demand for cryopreserved donated human cells, tissues, or organs that can be used in regenerative medicine and organ transplantation is rapidly increasing. Therefore, how to efficiently cryopreserve precious cell, tissue, and organ resources has become an important challenge in the field of life sciences.
[0004] Currently, vitrification is the most commonly used cryopreservation method. Vitrification allows intracellular and extracellular fluids to be directly converted to a vitrified state during the rapid freezing process, thereby avoiding damage caused by ice crystal formation during the freezing process. However, conventional cryopreservation reagents are unable to effectively control ice crystal growth during the temperature recovery process, resulting in cell damage. Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is a commonly used fluxing agent and osmotic cell cryopreservation protectant for in vitro cell culture. However, DMSO has been shown to cause adverse side effects in clinical trials and is highly cytotoxic. Different cell types have different sensitivities to DMSO concentrations, leading to cellular toxicities and limiting the application of cryopreservation reagents containing DMSO as the main protectant. The high concentrations (≥15%) of DMSO commonly used in vitrification currently have serious effects on the survival rate of cryopreserved specimens after recovery, and ultimately on the safety and functional performance of progeny. In short, currently used cryopreservation reagents lack the ability to effectively control ice crystal growth during the rewarming process and suffer from high toxicity.

[0123] Application example 1: Using the freezing equilibration solution and cryopreservation solution of the above examples and comparative examples, oocytes and embryos are cryopreserved according to the methods in Tables 1 and 2, respectively.
[0124] 1. Oocyte Cryopreservation First, mouse oocytes were placed in a cryopreservation solution and allowed to equilibrate for 5 minutes. They were then placed in the prepared cryopreservation solution for 1 minute. After equilibration in the cryopreservation solution, the oocytes were placed in a cryopreservation carrier lever and then quickly placed in liquid nitrogen (-196°C). The carrier lever was sealed and subsequently stored. Upon thawing, the cryopreserved oocytes were placed in thawing solution I at 37°C and allowed to equilibrate for 5 minutes. They were then sequentially equilibrated in thawing solutions II-IV for 3 minutes each. After thawing, the oocytes were cultured for 2 hours, and the number of surviving cells was counted and the survival rate was calculated (see Table 1).

After equilibration in the freezing solution, the embryos were placed in a freezing carrier lever and then quickly placed in liquid nitrogen (-196°C). The carrier lever was sealed and subsequently stored. Upon thawing, the frozen embryos were placed in thawing solution I at 37°C for 3 minutes, and then equilibrated in thawing solutions II-IV for 3 minutes each. After thawing, the embryos were cultured for 2 hours, after which the number of surviving embryos was counted and the survival rate was calculated (see Table 2).

[0127] [Table 6]
[0128] As can be seen from the data in Example 1 and Comparative Example 1, the DMSO-free cryopreservation solution and freezing equilibration solution of the present invention exhibit excellent cryopreservation effects for oocytes and embryos even without the addition of DMSO due to the synergistic effects of each component, thereby overcoming the drawback of conventional cryopreservation solutions, which contain high concentrations of DMSO and are toxic to cells or embryos. Furthermore, as can be seen from Application Examples 2, 6-8, even without the addition of serum and DMSO to the equilibration solution, freezing solution, and thawing solution, the synergistic effects of the bionic ice-control material and the penetrating protectant ethylene glycol of the present invention enable a superior survival rate for cryopreservation of oocytes and embryos compared to conventional commercially available cryopreservation solutions, further resolving the problems of commercially available cryopreservation solutions currently commonly used in clinical practice, such as the short storage period and susceptibility to the introduction of parasitic biological contaminants due to the presence of serum.

The purified solution was lyophilized to obtain the final product L-Thr-L-Arg(TR). The yield was approximately 80%. Mass spectrometry identification: 276.2 [M+H] + is.
[0143] Comparative Example 2: Cryopreservation solution 3#: Contains 10% (v / v) DMSO and 15% (v / v) fetal bovine serum per mL, with the remainder being α-MEM medium (USA, Invitrogen, C12571500BT).
[0144] Using the above cryopreservation solution, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells were cryopreserved according to the method in Table 3. Specifically, the cryopreservation method for human umbilical cord stem cells was performed by digesting human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells in a culture dish with 25% pancreatin for 2 minutes, adding an equal volume of culture medium (10% FBS + α-MEM medium), gently tapping until all the stem cells had settled, transferring the cells to a 1.5 ml centrifuge tube, centrifuging at 1000 rpm for 5 minutes, discarding the supernatant, separating the cells from the medium, adding 10 μL of freezing solution to the bottom of the centrifuge tube, gently tapping to disperse the stem cell clumps, and placing the 10 μL of freezing solution containing the stem cells on a freezing carrier sheet, which was then placed in liquid nitrogen (-196°C) for cryopreservation (microdroplet method). To thaw, the freezing carrier sheet containing the cells and freezing solution was placed directly in α-MEM medium at 37°C. After thawing, the viability was observed by trypan blue staining, and the cell number was counted using the JIMBIO-FIL instrument, where viability = number of live cells / total number of cells (see Table 3).

[0146] When using the cryopreservation solution of the present invention to cryopreserve human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells, the survival rate of the stem cells can reach 92.4% without the use of DMSO (Application Example 9), and even without the addition of DMSO or serum, the survival rate can reach 77.1% (Application Example 13). This freezing reagent not only achieves the same effectiveness as conventional freezing solutions for stem cells, but also has a much higher cryopreservation recovery rate than the currently commonly used cryopreservation solution containing 10% DMSO (Comparative Example 5), demonstrating that the cryopreservation effect based on PVA is significantly superior to that of Comparative Example 6, which does not contain PVA.

[0158] First, the intact ovarian organ or ovarian tissue slice was placed in an equilibration solution and allowed to equilibrate at room temperature for 25 minutes. Then, it was placed in the prepared cryopreservation solution for 15 minutes. The intact ovarian organ or ovarian tissue slice was then placed in a freezing carrier and stored in liquid nitrogen. After thawing, the intact ovarian organ or ovarian tissue slice was placed in a culture medium (10% FBS + α-MEM) and then placed in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator to recover for 2 hours. It was then fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde, embedded in paraffin, and stained with HE staining for morphology. The results are shown in Figures 1-10.
