    Notes: Abstract COS, myeloma and HeLa cells, which are commonly used for protein production by cell culture, were transfected with human bcl-2 gene encoded on the shuttle vector BCMGS. Expression of human bcl-2 improved survival of cells remarkably, mildly, or negligibly for COS, myeloma, and HeLa, respectively. Four clones were obtained from the human bcl-2 expressing cell population of COS cells. They expressed human bcl-2 almost at the same level. The viable cell numbers were 6, 2.5, 2.5, and 0.8 times as many for the clones #8, #5, #6, and #7, respectively, as for the control COS cells, when they were cultured at low (0.2%) serum concentration for 9 days. The bcl-2 overexpressing COS cells showed morphology different from that of the control COS cells in serum limited condition. When transfected with mouse lambda protein gene carried by an SV40-derived vector, clone #8 of the bcl-2 transfected COS cells continued the transient expression of lambda protein longer than the control COS cells.

    Notes: Abstract The authors established apoptosis resistant COS–1, myeloma, hybridoma, and Friend leukemia cell lines by genetically engineering cells, aiming at more efficient protein production by cell culture. COS–1 cells, which are most widely used for eukariotic gene expression, were transfected with human bcl–2 gene. Both bcl–2 and mock transfected COS–1 cells were cultured at low (0.2%) serum concentration for 9 days. The final viable cell number of the bcl–2 transfected cells was ninefold of that of the mock transfectants. Both bcl–2 and mock transfectants were further transfected with the vector pcDNA-λ containing SV40 ori and immunoglobulin λ gene for transiently expressing λ protein. The bcl–2 expressing COS–1 cells produced more λ protein than the mock transfected COS–1 cells after 4 days posttransfection. Mouse myeloma p3-X63-Ag.8.653 cells, which are widely used as the partner for preparing hybridoma, and hybridoma 2E3 cells were transfected with human bcl–2 gene. Both bcl–2 transfected myeloma and hybridoma survived longer than the corresponding original cells in batch culture. The bcl–2 transfected 2E3 cells survived 2 to 4 four days longer in culture, producing 1.5- to 4-fold amount of antibody in comparison with the mock transfectants. Coexpression of bag–1 with bcl–2 improved survival of hybridoma 2E3 cells more than bcl–2 expression alone. The bag–1 and bcl–2 coexpressing cells produced more IgG than the the cells expressing bcl–2 alone. Apoptosis of Friend murine erythroleukemia(F-MEL) cells was suppressed with antisense c-jun expression. The antisense c-jun expressing cells survived 16 days at non-growth state.

    Anti-apoptotic genes, bag-1 and bcl-2, enabled hybridoma cells to survive under treatment for arresting cell cycle (1997)

    Notes: Abstract Hybridoma 2E3-O cells were transfected with bcl-2 alone or with bcl-2 and bag-1 in combination. The bcl-2/bag-1 transfectant survived maintaining viability above 75% for almost 5 days when the cells were treated with excess (30 mM) thymidine for arresting cell cycle, whereas the mock transfectant survived for only 2 days, and the bcl-2 alone transfectant lived for 4 days. Owing to this extended viable culture period, the bcl-2/bag-1 transfectant produced twofold amount of antibody in comparison with the mock transfectant in non-proliferating state prepared by the excess thymidine treatment. When their proliferation was arrested by serum limitation, the bcl-2/bag-1 transfectant and the bcl-2 alone transfectant survived for 3 days maintaining viability above 75% while the mock transfectant survived only 1 day. The bcl-2/bag-1 transfectans produced the antibody at the rate three times as high as the bcl-2 alone transfectant and the mock transfectant in non-proliferating state established by serum limitation. Such genetic engineering of hybridoma cells for improving survival in the non-proliferating state will be useful for using nutrients in culture medium efficiently to produce antibody, since nutrients could be diverted from cell proliferation to antibody production in such non-proliferating viable cell culture.

    Characterization and fed-batch culture of hybridoma overexpressing apoptosis suppressing gene bcl-2 (1997)

    Notes: Abstract Mouse hybridoma 2E3 transfected with human bcl-2 gene survived longer with increasing expression level of bcl-2 when cultured in DME medium supplemented with 9% serum. One of the transfectants, 2E3BCMGbcl-2, overexpressed bcl-2 and could maintain viable cell density higher than the initial density for more than four days at a low 0.5% serum concentration. In comparison a mock transfectant 2E3BCMG remained viable for only one day. However, both hybridomas died out within a day in serum-free medium. These results suggested that bcl-2 needed a small amount of some serum components to suppress apoptosis of the hybridoma. Overexpression of bcl-2 also suppressed apoptosis of the hybridoma induced by glutamine deprivation. When hybridoma 2E3BCMGbcl-2 was inoculated in DME medium supplemented with 9% serum and cultured for 10 d with additional 2% serum feed at day 4 of the culture, viable cell density increased 2-fold and antibody produced 3-fold, in comparison with mock transfected 2E3 cultured in the same manner. The mock transfectant with additional feed of serum at day 4 of the culture showed no difference in viable cell density and antibody production. These results suggested that the mock transfectant committed to apoptosis before day 4 of the culture and the additional serum at day 4 could not reverse the commitment.
