[0003] The priority of the following prior application is claimed in this application: the prior application with the patent application number 202410894552.5 and the title "Cellulose derivative-based hydrogel, culture solution for culture, and preparation method and application thereof" filed with the China National Intellectual Property Office on July 4, 2024.
[0004] The above prior applications are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. TECHNICAL FIELD
[0005] The present application belongs to the field of biotechnology and relates to a cellulose derivative-based hydrogel, a culture solution for culture, and a preparation method and application thereof, in particular to a cellulose derivative-based hydrogel, a 3D cell culture solution, a tissue and organoid culture solution, a stem cell culture solution, a culture solution for inducing differentiation of organoids, a kit, and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0006] Ordinary 2D cell culture gradually loses the original properties of cells due to the proliferation of cells in an altered environment in vitro, which often does not match the in vivo situation. Animal experiments are completely performed in vivo, but the in vivo situation is complicated due to various factors and the mutual influence of the in vivo and external environments, making it difficult to study a single process and the intermediate process.
[0007] 3D cell culture technology is a technology between single-layer cell culture and animal experiments, which can maximize the simulation of in vivo environment and exhibit the advantages of direct visualization and controllability of cell culture. 3D cell culture can make up for many defects in the process of single-layer cell culture, for example:
[0008] (1) The 3D cell model can well simulate the in vivo cell microenvironment: substances such as gas, nutrients, and metabolic products exhibit gradient changes in concentration.
[0009] (2) 3D cell models can well simulate the interaction between cells: three-dimensional cell contact and direct or indirect cell-to-cell communication.
[0010] (3) 3D cell models can well simulate the biochemical and physiological responses of cells: the response of cells to internal or external stimuli is more consistent with the in vivo response.
[0011] The difficulty of 3D cell culture technology is to ensure the three-dimensional structure of cells and maintain the natural proliferation and differentiation activity. With decades of continuous development, the method of 3D cell culture is also constantly innovating, and the currently commonly used methods are mainly divided into two kinds: 3D cell culture method based on scaffold and 3D cell culture method without scaffold. The 3D cell culture method based on scaffold has a long history of development, with a large number of literature support. The materials used for cell culture scaffold include agarose, collagen, fibronectin, gelatin, laminin, etc. These composite materials simulate the natural extracellular matrix (ECM) through porosity, fiber, permeability and mechanical stability, which can well simulate the interaction between cells and the interaction between cells and extracellular matrix in the in vivo environment, while allowing cells to aggregate, proliferate and migrate on the scaffold.
[0012] Stem cells are a class of cells with proliferation and differentiation potential, which can differentiate into specific cell types of various tissues and organs. Stem cells can be divided into totipotent stem cells, pluripotent stem cells, multipotent stem cells and unipotent stem cells. Among them, pluripotent stem cells can differentiate into all cells derived from three germ layers, form all tissues and organs, and are used for various tissue and organ repair, disease treatment and drug screening, so they have become the focus of stem cell research. Culturing stem cells is also applied to the formation, maintenance and expansion of organoids. Embryonic stem cells (EC) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) are currently the most studied pluripotent stem cells. However, developing stem cells is not simple, and the main problem to be solved is how to effectively differentiate stem cells into cells with different functions. The stem cell microenvironment plays a controlling role in the differentiation of stem cells into functional cells, but the molecular mechanisms are currently poorly understood. A suitable and stable microenvironment is crucial for the culture and application of stem cells such as iPSC.
[0013] An organoid is a three-dimensional cultured cell group derived from stem cells, which has the characteristics of multi-cell assembly and self-renewal of living tissues. The tissue structure, cell type and gene characteristics of a tumor organoid are highly consistent with those of a tumor of a patient himself, and the tumor organoid can be used as a substitute for the patient to test drugs. The tumor organoid research model can maintain genomic stability and tumor heterogeneity, simulate a tumor microenvironment, and make up for the shortcomings of traditional cell and animal models.
[0014] Taking a commonly used stent material, Matrigel, as an example, the material is a basement membrane matrix extracted from an EHS mouse tumor rich in extracellular matrix proteins, and the main components include laminin, collagen IV, heparin sulfate glycoprotein, nidogen, and a variety of growth factors and matrix metalloproteinases. At room temperature, Matrigel polymerizes to form a three-dimensional matrix with biological activity, simulating the structure, composition, physical properties and functions of the basement membrane of cells in vivo, which is beneficial to the culture and differentiation of cells in vitro, and can be used for research on cell morphology, biochemical function, migration, invasion and gene expression.
[0015] The current problems of Matrigel include: 1) shortage of goods due to animal welfare issues; 2) large batch differences and difficult to control, the nutritional substances and protein components contained are greatly affected by batches; 3) animal-derived proteins and nucleic acids interfere with the drug efficacy evaluation, fluorescence detection and other links of downstream experiments; 4) the temperature-sensitive properties of Matrigel itself have strict requirements on the temperature of storage and operation.

[0342] 4) Add 3 ml of preheated mTeSR TM 1 to the well, gently blow to make the stem cells fall off from the well plate, and repeat the blowing until the cell mass is broken into 1-2 mm fragments.
[0343] 5) Divide the stem cell fragments into the methyl cellulose hydrogel MC-1 well plate covered in step 1) at a ratio of 1:1 to 1:6, and add mTeSR TM 1 culture solution (STEMCELL, 85850) to 2 ml, gently knock the side of the 6-well plate culture dish 5 to 10 times to ensure that the stem cell colonies are evenly distributed in the air, and culture in a 37°C, 5% CO2 incubator, with daily medium change.
[0344] Example 7: Human pluripotent stem cell / embryonic stem cell induced differentiation intestinal organoid
[0345] 1. Single layer culture of iPSC / ES differentiation
[0346] The differentiation was performed in TC-treated 24-well cell culture plates. The methylcellulose hydrogel MC-1 was diluted to 0.8% with DMEM / F12 and added to the 24-well plates, 0.3 ml / well, and incubated in a 37°C incubator for at least 1 hour. Prior to the start of differentiation, the differentiation rate and starting density of the cells should be evaluated. The differentiation rate should be less than 5% and the starting density should reach 85-90% at this time.
[0347] (1) Definitive endoderm differentiation
[0348] A. Preparation of definitive endoderm differentiation medium
[0349] Day 0: Prepare the definitive endoderm differentiation medium (RPMI1640, containing L-glutamine (final concentration 2mM), penicillin-streptomycin (final concentration 100U / ml-100g / ml) and Activin A (final concentration 100ng / ml) required for day 0, 1 and 2, 0.5mL per culture well.
[0350] B. Definitive endoderm differentiation
[0351] 1) Day 0: Pre-warm the definitive endoderm differentiation medium required for day 0 (0.5mL / well) at 37°C, store the remaining medium at 2-8°C, and aspirate mTeSR from the culture well. TM 1, add 0.5mL of definitive endoderm differentiation medium dropwise along the well wall. Incubate at 37°C, 5% CO2 and 95% humidity for 24 hours.
[0352] 2) Day 1: Pre-warm the definitive endoderm differentiation medium (0.5mL / well) at 37°C, aspirate the medium from the culture well, and add 0.5mL of definitive endoderm differentiation medium dropwise along the well wall. Incubate at 37°C, 5% CO2 and 95% humidity for 24 hours.
[0353] 3) Day 2: Aspirate the medium from the culture well, and add 0.5mL of 37°C pre-warmed definitive endoderm differentiation medium dropwise along the well wall. Incubate at 37°C, 5% CO2 and 95% humidity for 24 hours.
[0354] Note: During endoderm induction, cells will undergo a large amount of death. Try to minimize the time of cells outside the 37°C incubator. After 24 hours of endoderm induction, cells are very sensitive and need to be handled carefully when changing medium. After 72 hours of incubation, a dense confluent monolayer of endoderm cells will be formed.
[0355] (2) Mid / Hindgut (MH) differentiation
[0356] A. MH differentiation medium
[0357] Day 3: Prepare MH differentiation media needed for days 3-8 (RPMI 1640 with 2% FBS, with L-glutamine (final concentration 2 mM), penicillin-streptomycin (final concentration 100 U / ml-100 g / ml), FGF4 (final concentration 500 ng / ml), 0.5 mL per culture well.
[0358] B. Mid / Posterior Intestine (MH) Differentiation
[0359] 1) Day 3: Warm sufficient amount of MH differentiation media (0.5 mL / well) to room temperature (15-25 °C), aspirate the media in the culture well, and add 0.5 mL of mid / posterior intestine (MH) differentiation media drop-wise along the well wall. Incubate at 37 °C, 5% CO2 and 95% humidity for 24 hours.
[0360] 2) Days 4-9: Change media completely and observe the spheroids every 24 hours according to the following protocol.
[0361] Note: Make sure the culture is returned to the incubator within 30 minutes of removal.
[0362] a. Observe the monolayer under the microscope. Three-dimensional structures can appear as early as day 4 of differentiation. Free-floating mid / posterior intestinal spheroids will appear
[0363] Now at day 6-9 of differentiation.
[0364] b. With a 1 mL pipette, remove 0.5 mL of media from the cells and transfer to a sterile 24-well flat bottom transparent culture plate to assess the number and concentration of mid / posterior intestinal spheroids extracted from the monolayer.
[0365] c. Add 0.5 mL of fresh MH media to the cells. Incubate at 37 °C, 5% CO2 and 95% humidity for 24 hours.
[0366] Note: Although spheroids released at day 6-9 will all generate small intestinal organoids, the length of time the cells are cultured in mid / posterior intestinal media will determine the regional identity of the small intestinal organoids that develop. For example, duodenum (shorter culture time) or ileum (longer culture time). The time at which the maximum yield of mid / posterior intestinal spheroids occurs can vary depending on the hPSC cell line. For reproducible experimental results, use mid / posterior intestinal spheroids differentiated at the same time point for consistent harvesting and initiation of human intestinal organoid culture.
[0367] 3) Spheroid Embedding: Use a 0.5% BSA rinsed pipette to suspend the spheroids in each culture well into one culture well of a 24-well plate for counting. Add the appropriate volume to a 15 mL centrifuge tube corresponding to approximately 50 or so suspended spheroids (based on previous spheroid count).
[0368] One mid / hindgut spheroid is a cell aggregate with a diameter > 75 pm, which can form a human intestinal organoid. Multiple fused spheroids should be counted as one unit, which will form a human intestinal organoid.
[0369] The remaining monolayer culture can be used to determine mid / hindgut formation or to study further differentiation of chimeric spheroids over the following days.
[0370] 2. Human intestinal organoid culture
[0371] (1) Initial culture of human intestinal organoids
[0372] A. Preparation of intestinal organoid growth medium
[0373] 1) Culture in 24-well low attachment culture plates. Prepare 4 wells (0.5 mL / well) of intestinal organoid growth medium (Advanced DMEM / F12 with 1 x B27, with L-glutamine (final concentration 2 mM), penicillin-streptomycin (final concentration 100 U / ml - 100 g / ml), HEPES buffer (final concentration 15 mM), R-spondin 1 (final concentration 500 ng / ml).
[0374] B. Mixing of methylcellulose hydrogel MC-1 with spheroids
[0375] 1) Centrifuge the spheroid suspension collected in step B of mid / hindgut (MH) differentiation at 300 x g for 5 minutes. Carefully aspirate the supernatant after centrifugation.
[0376] 2) Add 1 mL of DMEM / F-12 + 15 Mm HEPES to the spheroids. Centrifuge at room temperature (15-25 °C) at 300 x g for 5 minutes.
[0377] 3) Carefully aspirate the supernatant with 1 mL of gun tip.
[0378] 5) Add 100 pL of 0.3% methylcellulose hydrogel MC-1 in the centrifuge tube. Pipette up and down 5 times and gently dispense the spheroids into the methylcellulose hydrogel MC-1.
[0379] Note: Do not empty the gun tip completely to prevent excessive bubble formation.
[0380] 6) Using the same gun tip, gently transfer the embedded spheroids to the center of one culture well of a 24-well tissue culture dish.
[0381] 7) Incubate in a 37 °C incubator for 10-25 minutes.
[0382] 8) Warm up a sufficient volume of intestinal organoid growth medium to (15-25 °C). Store the remaining medium at 2-8 °C.
[0383] 9) Carefully add at least 0.5 mL / well of intestinal organoid growth medium along the well wall of the culture well. Incubate at 37°C, 5% CO2, 95% humidity.
[0384] 10) Replace the culture medium every 3-4 days, remove the old culture medium, and add fresh culture medium. Incubate at 37°C, 5% CO2, 95% humidity.
[0385] 11) After 10-14 days of incubation, passage according to the growth of the organoids.
[0386] The microscopic images of the human pluripotent stem cell / embryonic stem cell induced differentiation intestinal organoids after 3, 7, and 12 days of culture according to the present embodiment are shown in Figures 1a-2, 1b-2, and 1c-2.
[0387] Comparative Example 3
[0388] According to the culture method of Reference Example 6, iPSCs were cultured using 0.8% methylcellulose hydrogel MC-1 and Matrigel (Corning 354277), respectively, and the results are shown in Figures 2a-2 and 2b-2.
[0389] Both groups had clear colony edges, uniform cell size, and high nuclear-cytoplasmic ratio, representing a better stem cell state and presenting an undifferentiated cell state. This indicates that methylcellulose MC-1 hydrogel and Matrigel have comparable performance in culturing stem cells.
[0390] Comparative Example 4
[0391] According to the culture method of Reference Example 7, human pluripotent stem cells / embryonic stem cells were cultured using the induced differentiation intestinal organoid kit containing 0.3% methylcellulose hydrogel MC-1 and STEMdiff TM Intestinal Organoid Kit (Stem Cell, 05140), respectively, and the microscopic images of the human pluripotent stem cell / embryonic stem cell induced differentiation intestinal organoids after 12 days are shown in Figures 3a-2 and 3b-2.
[0392] Both groups can culture mature intestinal organoids containing multiple crypt structures, and these crypt structures are connected to each other to form a mini-intestine with an intestinal lumen. However, the kit of the present application is even better than the comparative kit, and the intestinal organoids formed have a more typical and complex crypt reentrant structure.
[0393] Example 8
[0394] The operation is the same as that in Example 7, except that the hydrogels are different, and the hydrogels are respectively: carboxymethyl cellulose hydrogel, cellulose mixed ester of adamantane carboxylic acid acetate hydrogel, oxidized cellulose-dialdehyde cellulose hydrogel and cellulose acrylate hydrogel, and Figures 4a, 4b, 4c, 4d are micrographs of the intestinal organoids after 12 days of culture in the above hydrogels, respectively.
