    Notes: Abstract Pro-UKS1 was designed as a thrombin-resistant derivative of pro-urokinase (pro-UK) by introducing a glycosylation site using site-directed mutagenesis. An expression plasmid for pro-UKS1, pMo1UKS1SEd1-5, was constructed and introduced into Namalwa KJM-1 cells (Hosoiet al., 1988), and cells resistant to G418 and Methotrexate (MTX) were obtained. Amongst them, the highest pro-UKS1 producer (resistant to 500 nM of MTX), clone 41-8, was selected and further characterized. Clone 41-8 was cultured in serum-free ITPSGF medium (Hosoiet al., 1988). Under the conventional conditions, the concentration of pro-UKS1 reached 26 μg ml−1. Addition of glucose and tri-iodothyronine (T3) improved productivity, and the maximal productivity of pro-UKS1 was 67 μg ml−1 day−1. In this conditioned medium, content of pro-UKS1 was above 80% of total proteins.

    Notes: Abstract A small amount of swine serum markedly stimulated cell growth for high productivity subclones derived from a mouse human-human heterohybridoma, N12-16.63, secreting an anti-tetanus toxoid human monoclonal antibody in a polyethylene glycol (PEG)-containing serum-free medium, PEG-86-1. A growth promoting substance, SSGF-I, was isolated from the serum by ammonium sulfate fractionation, Cibacron blue F3A-G affinity chromatography, DEAE-agarose ion exchange chromatography, and gel filtrations on Trisacryl GF 2000 and Sephacryl S-300. SSGF-I was characterized as a low density lipoprotein (LDL) of swine serum by its physico-chemical properties. It promoted cell growth synergistically with PEG and its optimum concentration was 1 to 100μg/ml. Human LDL was less active, and human or swine high density lipoprotein (HDL) and very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) were inactive. Based on these results, we propose an improved serum-free medium, PEG-86-3, which contains all the ingredients of PEG-86-1 and 10μg/ml SSGF-I. This medium is useful for not only high productivity heterohybridomas but also for a variety of lymphoid cell lines.

    Notes: Abstract The effects of several different substances, including insulin, transferrin, ethanolamine, selenite and butyrate on the growth of murine hybridoma 2F7 cells, which secrete monoclonal antibody against small cell lung cancer, were investigated, and a serum-free medium SFMI was formulated. The effects of taurine, spermidine, progesterone and adenine on the cell growth were tested further on the basis of the medium SFMI, and a modified serum-free medium SFM II was established. On the basis of medium SFM II, the substitution tests of ferric citrate for transferrin were carried out, and it was found that transferrin could be replaced. The experiments suggested that the formulated serum-free medium was suitable for 2F7 cell growth and monoclonal antibody secretion, and thus facilitated subsequent purification of monoclonal antibody.

    Notes: Abstract The development of a new stable synthetic serum replacement (SSR) is described, which allows the cultivation of mammalian cells in a defined, protein-free medium containing only dialyzable components. With a low concentration of insulin (RPMI-SR2 medium), growth rates of the transformed cell lines L929, HELA S3, and the hybridoma 1E6 were comparable to growth rates obtained with a serum-containing medium. The same medium also supported long-term cultivation of non-dividing mouse macrophages. The main principle of SSR is a metal ion buffer containing a balanced mixture of iron and trace metals. Stability against precipitation of important metals is achieved by the combined use of EDTA and citric acid as chelating agents. Efficient iron supply is mediated through the inclusion of the compound Aurintricarboxylic acid as a synthetic replacement for transferrin. SSR also contains a growth-promoting surfactant, Pluronic F68. Thus SSR provides a general foundation for growth and differentiation normally provided by serum. Limitations of other serum-free medium designs are discussed here: 1) the inability of transferrin to chelate all metals in the medium; and 2) the use of inorganic iron salts or iron citrate as an iron supplement leads to rapid precipitation of iron hydroxide in the medium. Both these problems are solved in the design of SSR.

    Notes: Abstract The serum-free medium MDSS2 (Merten et al., 1994), was used for cultivating Vero cells as well as for producing poliovirus (Sabin type 1) in static and in perfused micro-carrier cultures. At slightly different growth rates of 0.0120/h and 0.0106/h, respectively, static cultures in serum-containing (SCM) and serum-free (SFM) medium produced titers of 106.75 and 106.67 TCID50 per 50 µl; signifying a specific productivity of 0.89 and 1.07 TCID50/c. Serum-free bioreactor cultures of Vero cells on DEAE-dextran microcarriers at 6.25 g/l produced cell densities of about 1.5×106c/ml. After infection with virus (multiplicity of infection (MOI) 0.1–0.3) titers of about 6.3×108 TCID50/ml were obtained, signifying an average specific productivity of 7.1 TCID50/c.h. Although these values were 4 and 2 fold, respectively, higher than in classical resum-based production processes (Montagnon et al. Dev. biol. Stand. 1981, 47, 55), a reference culture, for which cell growth was done in SCM and only virus production was done in SFM, produced 2×109 TCID/ml with an average specific virus production rate of 18.9 TCID50/c.h. The differences between the fully serum-free and our reference process were mainly due to physiological differences of cells grown in SCM and SFM and also due to strongly modified consumption kinetics after virus infection leading to limitations of one or several essential medium compounds, like glucose and amino acids. Avoiding these limitations by increasing the residual concentration of glucose, glutamine, histidine, and SH-amino acids, led to specific virus production rates (of about 17.9 TCID59/c.h.) comparable to those found in the reference virus production process. The optimisation of the production of the poliovirus (Sabin 1) will be described with respect to the modification of the medium composition.

    Notes: Abstract The development of media free of serum and animal or human proteins is of utmost importance for increasing the safety of biologicals produced for therapy and vaccination. In order to reduce the risk of contamination, we have modified the serum free medium MDSS2, a very efficient serum free medium for the production of various biologicals including experimental vaccines using different cell lines (Merten et al., 1994), by replacing the animal derived products by plant extracts. The new serum and animal protein free medium (MDSS2N) can be efficiently used for biomass production of various cell lines. These cells grow equally well or better in this new serum-free medium than in the old formulation (MDSS2): • BHK-21/BRS cells, adapted to MDSS2N, showed an overall specific growth rate of 0.0197 h-1 (μ_max = 0.0510±0.0058 h-1), whereas those cultivated in MDSS2 grew with an average specific growth rate of 0.0179 h-1 (μ_max = 0.0305±0.0177 h-1). • Vero cells grew with an average specific growth rate of 0.0159 h-1 and 0.0153 h-1 in MDSS2 and MDSS2N, respectively. Very similar growth rates were obtained in microcarrier cultures in stirred tank reactors: the specific growth rates were 0.0161 h-1 and 0.0166 h-1 for MDSS2 and MDSS2N cultures, respectively. • For MDCK cells, when cultured on microcarriers in bioreactors, a higher average specific growth rate was observed in MDSS2N than in MDSS2; values of 0.0248 h-1 and 0.0168 h-1, respectively, were obtained. The capacity of MDSS2N to support the production of different viruses was equally evaluated and it could be established that for certain viruses there are no or insignificant differences between MDSS2N and MDSS2 (influenza and polio virus), whereas, the production of rabies virus is somewhat reduced in MDSS2N when compared to MDSS2. The use of MDSS2N for cell culture and the production of various viruses is discussed.

    Notes: Abstract The addition of ethanol extracts ofCentella asiatica showed a remarkable enhancement of fibroblast cells attachment to Cytodex beads in serum-free (SF) medium. It also improves tPA production in both batch and perfusion cultivations. The optimal concentration for SF medium was determined as 2 ppm of the extracts when using Cytodex III. In batch cultivation a high specific tPA production rate was obtained, compared to that from 5% FBS containing medium. However, a fast specific growth rate was observed in 5% FBS medium. In perfusion cultivation a reasonably good cell density and tPA production was achieved at a perfusion rate of 2.4×106 (viable cell/ml) and 0.65 (μg/ml), respectively at 22 ml/min.

    Notes: Abstract A Namalwa cell line, KJM-1, which was adapted to serum-free medium is thought to be a good host cell line for recombinant DNA technology. We previously reported the expression of human β-interferon (β-IFN) in Namalwa KJM-1 (Miyaji, 1989a). The utility of Namalwa KJM-1 for expression of foreign genes was further examined. As a target gene to be expressed, human lymphotoxin (hLT) cDNA was used. It was engineered for expression in Namalwa KJM-1 using a simian virus 40 (SV40)-based expression vector pAGE107 (Miyaji, 1989a). It contains all components necessary for the expression of cDNA in mammalian cells. The expression vector was introduced into Namalwa KJM-1 by electroporation. Among the transformants, clone 7 was further examined for the expression of hLT in serum-free medium. The production level of hLT was augmented with the increase of the cell density. Thus it was further indicated that Namalwa KJM-1 is useful for production of foreign gene products.

    Notes: Abstract Serum free fermentation procedures of cell cultures have got a wide application in production of biochemicals. But, cells cultured in serum free media in general are more sensitive to changes in culture condition, especially to nutrient limitation. There are no substances from serum which can support the cells when conditions are changing. In this study special attention is directed to amino acid utilization of mouse hybridoma in batch, chemostat and perfusion fermentations. Detailed data are presented which show the considerable difference of amino acid consumption rates in different fermentation modes. Already, in batch mode there are differences of the two investigated mouse hybridoma cell lines, although they are derived from the same myeloma line. In chemostat running at a dilution rate representing maximal growth rate most of the consumption rates are significant higher than in batch. On the other hand, in perfusion mode the rates are lower than in batch. This indicates clearly the different conditions of the fermentation modes. Therefore, it is necessary to develop serum free processes under the desired production conditions. An accurate analysis of the process is strongly recommended.

    Notes: Abstract We investigated the basic technology of cell culture conditions for production of useful substances such as cytokines, and related proteins produced by Namalwa cells. Namalwa cells (Klein, 1972), human B lymphoblastoid cells, were used for large scale production of alpha-interferon (Klein, 1979). Namalwa KJM-1, a subline of Namalwa cells, adapted to serum- and albumin-free medium, can grow at a high density above 1 × 107 cells/ml in suspension mode by the use of a perfusion culture system, Biofermenter™, containing a cone-type cell-sedimentation column as cell separator (Sato, 1983). Several kinds of cytokine cDNA can be introduced and expressed in Namalwa KJM-1 cells (Miyaji, 1990a,b,c). Some of these were produced in large quantities by use of a gene amplification method with dhfr (Miyaji, 1990c), even though the Namalwa KJM-1 cells contained endogenous dhfr genes. For stable production of the target protein, Namalwa KJM-1 cells are very useful host cells, because they have no effective endogenous protease activity in the conditioned medium. Using Biofermenter with micro-silicone fibers and a dialysis system, the specific productivity of the target proteins was not depressed at a high cell density.
