Abstract
Fremgangsmåte for fremstilling av lymfotoksin og lymfotoksin-mRNA ved inkubering av transformerte T-lymfocytter i kontinuerlig kultur og derpåfølgende adskillelse av de således dannede celleprodukter.Method for producing lymphotoxin and lymphotoxin mRNA by incubating transformed T lymphocytes in continuous culture and subsequently separating the cell products thus formed.
Description
Fra litteraturen er det kjent at visse celler fra pattedyr etter passende stimulering er i stand til å fremstille såkalte lymfotoksiner in vitro (se eksempelvis Evans i Cancer Immunol. Immunother. 12, 181-190 (1983) og Granger et al. i Biology of It is known from the literature that certain cells from mammals, after appropriate stimulation, are able to produce so-called lymphotoxins in vitro (see for example Evans in Cancer Immunol. Immunother. 12, 181-190 (1983) and Granger et al. in Biology of
the Lymphokines s. 141-180, Academic Press 1979). I disse tilfeller utgjør lymfotoksin fra en bestemt art ikke noe enhetlig protein in vitro, snarere beskrives en rekke undertyper som adskiller seg fra hverandre med hensyn til molekylvekt, ladning og stabilitet ( se eksempelvis Granger et al. i. Biology of the Lymphokines s. 141-180, Academic Press 1979). I det humane systemet skilles det for eksempel mellom fire klasser lymfotoksiner, hvor molekylvektene ligger i området fra 10 000 til 20 000 for yLT, 35 000 til 50 000 for ØLT, 70 000 til 90 000 for aLT the Lymphokines pp. 141-180, Academic Press 1979). In these cases, lymphotoxin from a specific species does not constitute a uniform protein in vitro, rather a number of subtypes are described that differ from each other with regard to molecular weight, charge and stability (see for example Granger et al. i. Biology of the Lymphokines p. 141 -180, Academic Press 1979). In the human system, for example, a distinction is made between four classes of lymphotoxins, where the molecular weights lie in the range from 10,000 to 20,000 for yLT, 35,000 to 50,000 for ØLT, 70,000 to 90,000 for aLT
og 200 000 til 600 000 for LT-kompleks.and 200,000 to 600,000 for LT complex.
In vitro har lymfotoksiner evne til åIn vitro, lymphotoxins have the ability to
a) forhindre den maligne transformasjon av celler (se Evans et al., Int. J. Cancer 21_, 45-49 (1981) og Ransom et al., J. Nati. Cancer Inst. 69, 741-744 (1982)), b) virke cytostatisk eller til og med cytolytisk på tumorceller (se Evans et al., Immunopharmacology 3, 347-359 (1981)) og c) øke tumorcellers ømfintlighet overfor organismens cellulære immunforsvar (se Evans et al., Cell. Immunol. S_ 3, 1-15 (1981) og a) prevent the malignant transformation of cells (see Evans et al., Int. J. Cancer 21_, 45-49 (1981) and Ransom et al., J. Nat. Cancer Inst. 69, 741-744 (1982)) , b) act cytostatically or even cytolytically on tumor cells (see Evans et al., Immunopharmacology 3, 347-359 (1981)) and c) increase the sensitivity of tumor cells to the organism's cellular immune defense (see Evans et al., Cell. Immunol. S_ 3, 1-15 (1981) and
Ransom et al., Int. J. Cancer 29, 451-458 (1982)).Ransom et al., Int. J. Cancer 29, 451-458 (1982)).
Videre er det kjent fra litteraturen at lymfotoksinprepa-rater kan føre til regresjon av tumorer i forsøk med dyr (se Khan et al., Proe. Soc. Exptl. Biol. Med. 169, 291-294 (1982)).Lymfotoksin har derfor stor betydning for forebyggelse og behand-ling av ondartede sykdommer. Furthermore, it is known from the literature that lymphotoxin preparations can lead to regression of tumors in experiments with animals (see Khan et al., Proe. Soc. Exptl. Biol. Med. 169, 291-294 (1982)). Lymphotoxin therefore has of great importance for the prevention and treatment of malignant diseases.
De fremgangsmåter for utvinning av lymfotoksiner som hittil er blitt gjort kjent, går i de fleste tilfeller ut fra primære celler, f.eks. fra leukocytt-preparater av perifert blod eller tonsiller fra mennesker (se Williams et al., J. Immunol. 130, 518-520 (1983)), fra miltceller fra mus (se Aksamit et al., Infect. Immun. 3$, 1028-1035 (1982) og Trivers et al., J. Immunol. 117, 130-135 (1976)) eller fra leukocytter fra bukhulen hos syriske hamstere eller marsvin,,'(se eksempelvis Evans et al., Int. J. Cancer 2J_, 45-49 (1981)). Her må cellene først initieres til fremstilling av lymfotoksiner ved inkubasjon med høymolekylæ-re mitogener, f.eks. fytohemagglutinin. Så kunne det da i dyrk-ningsvæsken fra B-lymfocytt-cellelinjer tidligere bare påvises liten lymfotoksin-aktivitet (se Granger et al., J. Immunol. 104, 1476 (1970) og Amino et al., J. Immunol. 113, 1334-1345 (1974)). The methods for extracting lymphotoxins that have been made known up to now, in most cases, start from primary cells, e.g. from human peripheral blood or tonsil leukocyte preparations (see Williams et al., J. Immunol. 130, 518-520 (1983)), from mouse spleen cells (see Aksamit et al., Infect. Immun. 3$, 1028-1035 (1982) and Trivers et al., J. Immunol. 117, 130-135 (1976)) or from leukocytes from the abdominal cavity of Syrian hamsters or guinea pigs (see for example Evans et al., Int. J. Cancer 2J, 45-49 (1981)). Here, the cells must first be initiated into the production of lymphotoxins by incubation with high-molecular-weight mitogens, e.g. phytohemagglutinin. Then in the culture fluid from B-lymphocyte cell lines previously only a small amount of lymphotoxin activity could be detected (see Granger et al., J. Immunol. 104, 1476 (1970) and Amino et al., J. Immunol. 113, 1334-1345 (1974)).
Ettersom det ved de tidligere anvendte fremgangsmåter for fremstilling av lymfotoksiner bare kunne fremstilles små mengder og bare i dårlig renhet, kunne de hittil fremstilte lymfotoksiner bli stilt til rådighet hverken i en til homogenitet renset form eller i tilstrekkelig store mengder for omfangsrike under-søkelser av den antineoplastiske virkning i dyreforsøk. Videre kunne det tidligere heller ikke påvises noen biologisk aktiv lymfotoksin-mRNA; dette er dog forutsetning for den molekylære kloning av lymfotoksin-genet ved hjelp av genteknologiske fremgangsmåter. Since the previously used methods for the production of lymphotoxins could only be produced in small quantities and only in poor purity, the lymphotoxins produced so far could not be made available either in a form purified to homogeneity or in sufficiently large quantities for extensive investigations of the antineoplastic effects in animal experiments. Furthermore, no biologically active lymphotoxin mRNA could previously be detected either; however, this is a prerequisite for the molecular cloning of the lymphotoxin gene using genetic engineering methods.
Til grunn for den foreliggende oppfinnelse lå det således den oppgave å fremstille lymfotoksin samt lymfotoksin-mRNA i tilstrekkelig stor mengde og renhet. The present invention was thus based on the task of producing lymphotoxin and lymphotoxin mRNA in a sufficiently large quantity and purity.
Ifølge oppfinnelsen er det nå funnet at celler av den såkalte T-lymfocytt-typen hos apekatter, særlig slekten Saguinus, According to the invention, it has now been found that cells of the so-called T-lymphocyte type in monkeys, especially the genus Saguinus,
for eksempel cellelinjene L-77/5, A651, A2543, 70N2, 1022 og 1670, fortrinnsvis dog cellelinjene 1022 og 1670, som ved infek-sjon med virus, fortrinnsvis med herpesvirus som herpes virus saimiri eller herpes virus ateles, transformeres in vitro eller in vivo og gjøres skikket til permanent dyrking i kultur, produ-serer betydelige mengder lymfotoksin og lymfotoksin-mRNA spontant, dvs. uten ytterligere induksjon, i et passende dyrkingsmedium. for example the cell lines L-77/5, A651, A2543, 70N2, 1022 and 1670, preferably the cell lines 1022 and 1670, which upon infection with viruses, preferably with herpes viruses such as herpes virus saimiri or herpes virus ateles, are transformed in vitro or in vivo and made suitable for permanent cultivation in culture, produces significant amounts of lymphotoxin and lymphotoxin mRNA spontaneously, i.e. without further induction, in a suitable culture medium.
Videre ble det funnet at ved tilsetning av en såkalt stimulator til dyrkningsmediet, f.eks. en fra litteraturen kjent tumorpromoter som et diterpen-derivat, fortrinnsvis av tiglian- eller dafne-type, f.eks. mezerein eller en ester av forbol, fortrinnsvis 12-0-tetradekanoylforbol-13-acetat (se Diamond et al., Advances in Cancer Research Vol. 32, side 1-74, Academic Press 1980 og Hecker, Carcinogenesis Vol. II, Mechanisms of Tumor Promotion and Cocarcinogenesis, side 11-48, Raven Press, New Furthermore, it was found that by adding a so-called stimulator to the culture medium, e.g. a tumor promoter known from the literature as a diterpene derivative, preferably of the tiglyan or dafne type, e.g. mezerein or an ester of phorbol, preferably 12-0-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (see Diamond et al., Advances in Cancer Research Vol. 32, pages 1-74, Academic Press 1980 and Hecker, Carcinogenesis Vol. II, Mechanisms of Tumor Promotion and Cocarcinogenesis, pages 11-48, Raven Press, New
York 19 78), ved en konsentrasjon på 1-1000 ng/ml, ble produksjonen av lymfotoksin og av lymfotoksin-mRNA ytterligere økt. York 1978), at a concentration of 1-1000 ng/ml, the production of lymphotoxin and of lymphotoxin mRNA was further increased.
Som dyrkingsmedier kommer her de vanlige serumfrie og serum-holdige dyrkingsmedier i betraktning, eksempelvis "Eagle's Minimum Essential Medium" eller "Roswell Park Memorial Institute Medium 1640" (RPMI1640), som eventuelt kan tilsettes serumet fra kalvefoster og antibiotika, fortrinnsvis inntil 10 % serum fra kalvefoster, penicillin og streptomycin. As culture media, the usual serum-free and serum-containing culture media come into consideration, for example "Eagle's Minimum Essential Medium" or "Roswell Park Memorial Institute Medium 1640" (RPMI1640), to which fetal calf serum and antibiotics can optionally be added, preferably up to 10% serum from calf fetuses, penicillin and streptomycin.
Ved fremstillingen av lymfotoksinproteiner utføres fremgangsmåten ifølge oppfinnelsen fortrinnsvis på den måten at transformerte celler, etter tilsetning av 10 til 100 ng/ml 12-0-tetra-dekanoylforbol-13-acetat eller mezerein som stimulator, holdes i et serumholdig, under bestemte betingelser også i et serumfritt dyrkingsmedium, f.eks. i RPMI 1640, i 1 til 7 dager, fortrinnsvis dog i 3 til 4 dager, og at det således dannede lymfotoksin deretter separeres fra dyrkingsvæsken etter en i og for seg kjent fremgangsmåte, konsentreres og renses. Denne fremgangsmåten ut-føres imidlertid særlig fordelaktig ved at cellene etter formering i et serumholdig medium i begynnelsen, overføres til et ser-umfattig, fortrinnsvis serumfritt medium. In the production of lymphotoxin proteins, the method according to the invention is preferably carried out in such a way that transformed cells, after the addition of 10 to 100 ng/ml 12-0-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate or mezerein as a stimulator, are kept in a serum-containing, under certain conditions also in a serum-free culture medium, e.g. in RPMI 1640, for 1 to 7 days, preferably for 3 to 4 days, and that the lymphotoxin thus formed is then separated from the culture liquid according to a method known per se, concentrated and purified. However, this method is carried out particularly advantageously in that the cells, after propagation in a serum-containing medium at the beginning, are transferred to a serum-poor, preferably serum-free, medium.
Ved fremstillingen av lymfotoksin-mRNA gjennomføres fremgangsmåten ifølge oppfinnelsen fortrinnsvis på den måten at transformerte celler etter tilsetning av 10-100 ng/ml 12-0-tetra-dekanoylforbol-13-acetat eller mezerein som stimulator, inkuberes i et serumholdig dyrkingsmedium, f.eks. i RPMI 1640 og med 10 % serum fra kalvefoster, i 6-48 timer, fortrinnsvis 12-24 timer, hvoretter cellene fraskilles og mRNA isoleres på i og for seg kjent måte etter ødeleggelse av cellene. In the production of lymphotoxin mRNA, the method according to the invention is preferably carried out in such a way that transformed cells are incubated in a serum-containing culture medium, e.g. e.g. in RPMI 1640 and with 10% fetal calf serum, for 6-48 hours, preferably 12-24 hours, after which the cells are separated and mRNA is isolated in a known manner after destruction of the cells.
Ved isoleringen av det således dannede celledyrkingsproduk-tet har, for rensingen av det således erholdte lymfotoksinet, kromatograferingen over porekontrollert glass som for første gang ble anvendt, og ekstraksjonen av lymfotoksin-mRNA for eksempel med fenol etter ødeleggelse av cellemembranen og fjern-ing av cellekjernen, vist seg særlig egnet. In the isolation of the thus formed cell culture product, for the purification of the thus obtained lymphotoxin, chromatography over pore-controlled glass was used for the first time, and the extraction of lymphotoxin mRNA, for example with phenol after destruction of the cell membrane and removal of the cell nucleus , proved particularly suitable.
Den videre rensing av lymfotoksinet skjer eksempelvis ved hjelp av HPLC. The further purification of the lymphotoxin takes place, for example, by means of HPLC.
Det således erholdte lymfotoksin med en molekylvekt påLymphotoxin with a molecular weight of
60 000 _+ 15 % er egnet til forebyggelse og bekjempelse av tumorceller, f.eks. i en vandig isoton oppløsning. 60,000 _+ 15% is suitable for preventing and combating tumor cells, e.g. in an aqueous isotonic solution.
Fremgangsmåten ifølge foreliggende oppfinnelse har de føl-gende fordeler sammenlignet med teknikkens stand: The method according to the present invention has the following advantages compared to the state of the art:
1. Det anvendes en homogen cellepopulasjon med ubegrenset levedyktighet hvor formeringen kan utvides til en hvilken som helst målestokk, 2. lymfotoksin-produksjonen i disse kulturene skjer spontant, dvs. at ingen høymolekylære mitogene stoffer tilsettes, 3. produksjonen av lymfotoksin kan økes ytterligere ved tilsetning av lavmolekylære stimuleringsmidler, 4. produksjonen av lymfotoksin kan skje i serumfritt medium med høye utbytter; man får følgelig et fremragende utgangsmate-riale for den videre proteinkjemiske rensing og 5. den fra cellene isolerte RNA oppviser umiddelbart påvisbar lymfotoksin-mRNA-aktivitet og utgjør derved et fremragende ut-gangsmateriale for den videre anrikning av denne mRNA, noe som 1. A homogeneous cell population with unlimited viability is used where propagation can be expanded to any scale, 2. lymphotoxin production in these cultures occurs spontaneously, i.e. no high molecular weight mitogenic substances are added, 3. the production of lymphotoxin can be further increased by addition of low molecular weight stimulants, 4. the production of lymphotoxin can take place in serum-free medium with high yields; you consequently get an excellent starting material for the further protein chemical purification and 5. the RNA isolated from the cells shows immediately detectable lymphotoxin mRNA activity and thereby constitutes an excellent starting material for the further enrichment of this mRNA, which
igjen utgjør en vesentlig forutsetning for den molekylære kloning av mRNA. Den klonede apekatt-lymfotoksin-mRNA kan igjen anvendes som prøveforbindelse for isoleringen av den homologe humane lymfotoksin-mRNA henholdsvis det tilsvarende gen etter kjente fremgangsmåter. again constitutes an essential prerequisite for the molecular cloning of mRNA. The cloned monkey lymphotoxin mRNA can again be used as a test compound for the isolation of the homologous human lymphotoxin mRNA or the corresponding gene according to known methods.

I alle eksperimentene ble kulturer med stor celletetthet fortynnet 1:2 til 1:3 med friskt medium, på den neste dag fortynnet 1:3 nok en gang og av og til ble 5 ml overført til en dyrkingsflaske. Dyrkingsvæsken ble utvunnet ved sentrifugering etter 3 dager, nedfrosset og lagret ved -20°C inntil den skulle testes. Park Memorial Institute Medium 1640" (RPMI 1640) supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum, penicillin and streptomycin in stationary culture at 37°C under an atmosphere of 95% air and 5% carbon dioxide, and diluted three times weekly with fresh medium .In all experiments, high cell density cultures were diluted 1:2 to 1:3 with fresh medium, on the next day diluted 1:3 once more and occasionally 5 ml was transferred to a culture flask.The culture fluid was recovered by centrifugation after 3 days, frozen and stored at -20°C until testing.

For fremstilling av større cellemengder ble det anvendt omrørte kulturer istedenfor stasjonære kulturer. Til det ble cellene (for eksempel cellelinjen 1670) dyrket for eksempel i RPMI 1640-medium med tilsetning av 10 % kalvefosterserum i For the production of larger amounts of cells, stirred cultures were used instead of stationary cultures. For that, the cells (for example, the cell line 1670) were cultured, for example, in RPMI 1640 medium with the addition of 10% fetal calf serum in
1- eller 2-liters Erlenmeyer-kolber på rotasjonsrystere (0,5 1 kultur pr. 1 liters-kolbe; 1 liter kultur pr. 2 liter-kolbe; 40 omdreininger pr. minutt; 37°C i normal atmosfære) og fortynnet i forholdet 1:2 til 1:3 tre ganger ukentlig med friskt dyrkingsmedium. På denne måten er produksjonen av dyrkingsvæske i størrelsesorden på 10-100 1 ukentlig uten videre mulig. 1- or 2-liter Erlenmeyer flasks on rotary shakers (0.5 1 culture per 1-liter flask; 1 liter culture per 2-liter flask; 40 revolutions per minute; 37°C in normal atmosphere) and diluted in ratio 1:2 to 1:3 three times weekly with fresh culture medium. In this way, the production of culture liquid in the order of 10-100 1 per week is easily possible.
Produksjonen av lymfotoksin i 16 70-celler var bortimot stabil over lange tidsrom: etter 9 måneder i kontinuerlig kultur kunne det ikke fastslås noen betydelig reduksjon i lymfo-toksinaktivitet i dyrkingsvæskene. The production of lymphotoxin in 16 70 cells was rather stable over long periods of time: after 9 months in continuous culture, no significant reduction in lymphotoxin activity could be determined in the culture fluids.
Karakterisering av lymfotoksin:Characterization of lymphotoxin:
a) Til den biologiske påvisningen av lymfotoksin-aktivitet ble følgende påvisningsmetode anvendt (modifisert etter Trivers et a., J. Immunol. 117, 130-135 og Evans, Cell. Immunol. 63, 1-15 (1981)): Transformerte museceller av cellelinjen L929 ble dyrket over natten med 1 mikroCurie 3H-thymidin/ml dyrkingsmedium (fortrinnsvis "Eagle's Minimum Essential Medium" med 10 % kalvefosterserum), deretter trypsinbehandlet og suspendert i friskt dyrkningsmedium med 5 % kalvefosterserum. 0,5 ml av denne suspensjonen med ca. 30 000 celler ble pipettert over i dyrkingsskåler (diameter 16 mm) og inkubert i 3-6 timer. Deretter ble det utført seriefortynninger på prøvene som skulle testes og det ble inkubert i 3 dager (alle inkubasjoner ved 37°C). a) For the biological detection of lymphotoxin activity, the following detection method was used (modified from Trivers et al., J. Immunol. 117, 130-135 and Evans, Cell. Immunol. 63, 1-15 (1981)): Transformed mouse cells of the cell line L929 was cultured overnight with 1 microCurie 3H-thymidine/ml culture medium (preferably "Eagle's Minimum Essential Medium" with 10% fetal calf serum), then trypsinized and suspended in fresh culture medium with 5% fetal calf serum. 0.5 ml of this suspension with approx. 30,000 cells were pipetted into culture dishes (diameter 16 mm) and incubated for 3-6 hours. Serial dilutions were then carried out on the samples to be tested and incubated for 3 days (all incubations at 37°C).
Til slutt ble radioaktiviteten i dyrkingsvæsken målt i væske-scintiliasjonsteller. Finally, the radioactivity in the culture liquid was measured in a liquid scintillation counter.
Fig. 1 viser påvisningen av lymfotoksin-aktivitet i en dyrkingsvæske fra 1670-celler. Hver fortynning ble testet parallelt i 4 dyrkingsskåler. Bare gjennomsnittsverdiene ble angitt, standardavviket utgjorde ved de første tre fortynninge-ne 3-4 %, ved den høyeste fortynning 6 %. Dyrkingsvæsken som ble brukt i dette forsøket, ble nedfrosset i mer enn hundre am-puller og brukt som referanse-standard i alle lymfotoksinprøve-ne; dens aktivitet ble vilkårlig fastslått til 100 referanse-enheter pr. milliliter (RE/ml). Fig. 1 shows the detection of lymphotoxin activity in a culture fluid from 1670 cells. Each dilution was tested in parallel in 4 culture dishes. Only the average values were indicated, the standard deviation was 3-4% for the first three dilutions, 6% for the highest dilution. The culture fluid used in this experiment was frozen in more than a hundred ampoules and used as a reference standard in all the lymphotoxin samples; its activity was arbitrarily set at 100 reference units per milliliters (RE/ml).
Til sammenligning ble dyrkingsvæsker fra en rekke T-lymfocytt-cellelinjer fra menneske (MOLT-4, 1301, JURKAT, Karpas-45, CCRF-CEM og CCRF-HSB-2) undersøkt i den ovenfor nevnte biologiske lymfotoksinprøven. Ikke i noen av tilfellene kunne det påvises en betydelig økning i frigjøringen av 3H-thymidin i forhold til ikke behandlede kontroller. For comparison, culture fluids from a number of human T-lymphocyte cell lines (MOLT-4, 1301, JURKAT, Karpas-45, CCRF-CEM and CCRF-HSB-2) were examined in the above-mentioned biological lymphotoxin test. In none of the cases could a significant increase in the release of 3H-thymidine be detected compared to untreated controls.
b) Den fysikalsk-kjemiske karakterisering av lymfotoksinakti-vitet i dyrkingsvæske fra cellelinje 1670 ble foretatt ved hjelp b) The physico-chemical characterization of lymphotoxin activity in culture fluid from cell line 1670 was carried out using
av følgende forsøk:of the following trials:
Stabilitet overfor varmebelastningStability against heat stress
Stabilitet overfor sur pH-verdiStability against acidic pH value
Stabilitet overfor nedfrysing/opptiningStability against freezing/thawing
Stabilitet overfor natriumdodecylsulfat (SDS)Stability to sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)
Stabilitet overfor reduserende midler (2-merkaptoetanol) Molekylvektbestemmelse ved høytrykksvæske-kromatografi (HPLC) Stability towards reducing agents (2-mercaptoethanol) Molecular weight determination by high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC)
Den følgende tabell viser resultatet av stabilitetsprøvingen: The following table shows the result of the stability test:
Aktiviteten er svært stabil overfor merkaptoetanol, overfor oppvarming og flere perioder med nedfrysing/opptining, ogødelegges fullstendig ved pH 2 i løpet av 24 timer. The activity is very stable against mercaptoethanol, against heating and several periods of freezing/thawing, and is completely destroyed at pH 2 within 24 hours.
Forsøkene vedrørende varme- og pH-stabilitet samt stabilitet overfor nedfrysing/opptining ble gjennomført med standard-dyrkingsvæsken fra ubehandlede 16 70-celler i nærvær av 10 % kalvefosterserum. De øvrige to forsøkene ble gjennomført med en dyrkingsvæske som var oppkonsentrert og anriket over porekontrollert glass (se eksempel 4) av med mezerein (20 ng/ml; se eksempel 4) behandlede 1670-celler (proteininnhold 1-2 mg/ml), som etter inkubasjonen med SDS henholdsvis merkaptoetanol ble fortynnet 50 ganger med komplett dyrkingsmedium (10 % kalve-serum) . The tests regarding heat and pH stability as well as stability against freezing/thawing were carried out with the standard culture fluid from untreated 16 70 cells in the presence of 10% fetal calf serum. The other two experiments were carried out with a culture fluid that was concentrated and enriched over pore-controlled glass (see example 4) from mezerein (20 ng/ml; see example 4) treated 1670 cells (protein content 1-2 mg/ml), which after the incubation with SDS and mercaptoethanol, respectively, were diluted 50 times with complete culture medium (10% calf serum).
Molekylvekten til lymfotoksin fra 16 70-celler ble bestemt The molecular weight of lymphotoxin from 16 70 cells was determined
ved høytrykks-væske-kromatografi (HPLC - se fig. 2).by high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC - see fig. 2).
200 mikroliter av en over porekontrollert glass oppkonsentrert dyrkingsvæske fra ubehandlede 1670-celler ble separert ved hjelp av HPLC på et anlegg fra WATERS (2 kolonner 1-125; 20 mM natriumfosfat pH 7, 1 M NaCl, 0,1 % "Tween 20" (polyoksy-etylen-sorbitan-monolaureat, n = 20, molekylvekt: ca. 1200), 200 microliters of a pore-controlled glass concentrated culture fluid from untreated 1670 cells was separated by HPLC on a WATERS facility (2 columns 1-125; 20 mM sodium phosphate pH 7, 1 M NaCl, 0.1% "Tween 20" (polyoxy-ethylene-sorbitan-monolaurate, n = 20, molecular weight: approx. 1200),
25 % (v/v) propylenglykol; 0,5 ml pr. minutt).25% (v/v) propylene glycol; 0.5 ml per minute).
0,5 ml store fraksjoner ble samlet opp og testet. Som kalibreringsproteiner for bestemmelse av molekylvekten ble serumalbumin, ovalbumin, trypsinogen og lysozym separert i det samme systemet. Analysen viste en eneste aktivitetstopp ved en molekylvekt på 60 000 + 15 %. 0.5 ml fractions were collected and tested. As calibration proteins for determining the molecular weight, serum albumin, ovalbumin, trypsinogen and lysozyme were separated in the same system. The analysis showed a single activity peak at a molecular weight of 60,000 + 15%.
c) Den veksthemmende virkningen av dyrkingsvæsker fra cellelinje 1670 ble undersøkt på en rekke transformerte (tumor-) c) The growth-inhibitory effect of culture fluids from cell line 1670 was investigated on a number of transformed (tumour-)
cellelinjer. I disse forsøkene ble tumorcellene (dyrket i "Eagle<1>s Minimum Essential Medium" med 10 % kalvefosterserum, penicillin og streptomycin) plassert i kulturskåler (50 000 celler pr. skål med 3 cm diameter) og 1 time senere tilsatt medium eller standard-dyrkingsvæsken fra cellelinje 16 70 (sluttkon-sentrasjon 16 RE/ml; 3 ml/skål). Celletallet pr. skål ble bestemt etter 3 eller 4 dagers inkubering ved 37°C (i alle for-søkene ble 2 skåler tilsatt lymfotoksin henholdsvis medium parallelt). For tre cellelinjer ble celleantallet bestemt daglig. Resultatene er gjengitt i den følgende tabell henholdsvis i fig. 3: cell lines. In these experiments, the tumor cells (grown in "Eagle<1>'s Minimum Essential Medium" with 10% fetal calf serum, penicillin and streptomycin) were placed in culture dishes (50,000 cells per dish with a diameter of 3 cm) and 1 hour later medium or standard was added - the culture fluid from cell line 16 70 (final concentration 16 RE/ml; 3 ml/dish). The cell count per dish was determined after 3 or 4 days of incubation at 37°C (in all experiments, lymphotoxin and medium were added to 2 dishes in parallel). For three cell lines, cell counts were determined daily. The results are reproduced in the following table and in fig. 3:
Dette viser at dyrkingsvæske fra 16 70-celler kan hemme formeringen av tumorceller hos forskjellige arter. Denne egen-skapen er karakteristisk for lymfotoksin (Evans, Cancer Immunol. Immunother..12, 181-190 (1983)); den adskiller denne gruppen proteiner spesielt fra interferoner, som likeens kan hemme veksten av tumorceller, men som vanligvis er arts-spesifikk, idet særlig humaninterferon er svært lite eller overhodet ikke aktiv overfor museceller. This shows that culture fluid from 16 70 cells can inhibit the proliferation of tumor cells in different species. This property is characteristic of lymphotoxin (Evans, Cancer Immunol. Immunother.. 12, 181-190 (1983)); it separates this group of proteins in particular from interferons, which can likewise inhibit the growth of tumor cells, but which are usually species-specific, as human interferon in particular is very little or not at all active against mouse cells.
De ovenfor nevnte transformerte T-lymfocytt-cellelinjene fra menneske samt (tumor-)cellelinjene er kjent fra litteraturen . The above-mentioned transformed T-lymphocyte cell lines from humans as well as the (tumor) cell lines are known from the literature.

Økning av lymfotoksin-produksjonen i ape-T-lymfocytt-cellelinjer med diterpen- forbindelser Enhancement of lymphotoxin production in monkey T-lymphocyte cell lines by diterpene compounds
Kulturer med stor celletetthet ble fortynnet 1:2 til 1:3 med friskt medium, fortynnet 1:3 nok en gang den neste dag og den samme stamkulturen ble fordelt i tre kolber med 5 ml i hver. Stimuleringsmidlet ble tilsatt (stamoppløsning 100 mikrogram pr. milliliter i dimetylsulfoksyd) t og kulturene ble inkubert i 3 dager. Deretter ble cellene fjernet ved hjelp av sentrifugering, supernanten ble nedfrosset og oppbevart ved -20°C inntil lymfotoksinprøven. High cell density cultures were diluted 1:2 to 1:3 with fresh medium, diluted 1:3 again the next day and the same stock culture was distributed into three flasks of 5 ml each. The stimulant was added (stock solution 100 micrograms per milliliter in dimethylsulfoxide) t and the cultures were incubated for 3 days. The cells were then removed by centrifugation, the supernatant was frozen and stored at -20°C until the lymphotoxin test.

Oppkonsentrering og rensing av lymfotoksin fra 16 70-celler ved kromatografering over kolonner av porekontrollert glass 16 70-celler ble dyrket i RPMI-1640-medium med 10 % kalvefosterserum i roterende Erlenmeyer-kolber (0,5 liter kultur i en 1 liters kolbe, rotasjonshastighet 40 omdreininger pr. min.). Celler fra godt voksende kulturer ble utvunnet ved sentrifugering, vasket og på nytt suspendert i serumfritt RPMI-1640-medium med tilsetning av 20 ng/ml mezerein. Suspensjonen ble oppbevart i 3 dager i 150 cm 2 dyrkingsflasker av plast (200 ml pr. flas-ke) , deretter ble dyrkingsvæsken utvunnet ved sentrifugering og filtrering. Concentration and purification of lymphotoxin from 16 70 cells by chromatography over pore-controlled glass columns 16 70 cells were grown in RPMI-1640 medium with 10% fetal calf serum in rotating Erlenmeyer flasks (0.5 liter culture in a 1 liter flask, rotation speed 40 revolutions per min.). Cells from well-growing cultures were recovered by centrifugation, washed and resuspended in serum-free RPMI-1640 medium supplemented with 20 ng/ml mezerein. The suspension was stored for 3 days in 150 cm 2 plastic culture bottles (200 ml per bottle), then the culture liquid was recovered by centrifugation and filtration.
Den således fremstilte dyrkingsvæske ble kromatografert over 10 ml porekontrollert glass (porediameter; 350 Ångstrom, partikkelstørrelse: 120-200 mesh; kolonnediameter: 9 mm, strømningshastighet: 140 ml/time). Deretter ble kolonnen vasket med 10 mM natrium-fosfatpuffer pH 7,2/1,5 M NaCl og til slutt eluert med den samme puffer i 50 % etylenglykol (volum/volum). The culture liquid thus prepared was chromatographed over 10 ml of pore-controlled glass (pore diameter: 350 Angstroms, particle size: 120-200 mesh; column diameter: 9 mm, flow rate: 140 ml/hour). The column was then washed with 10 mM sodium phosphate buffer pH 7.2/1.5 M NaCl and finally eluted with the same buffer in 50% ethylene glycol (vol/vol).
Den følgende tabell gjengir resultatene av to således gjennomførte forsøk: The following table reproduces the results of two experiments carried out in this way:

Påvisning av lymfotoksin-mRNA-aktivitet i RNA-preparater fra 1670- og 1022- celler Detection of lymphotoxin mRNA activity in RNA preparations from 1670 and 1022 cells
Cellene ble suspendert i 800 ml celledyrkingsmedium medThe cells were suspended in 800 ml of cell culture medium with
10 % kalvefosterserum ved en celletetthet på ca. 5 x 10 5 celler/ml og tilsatt 20 ng mezerin/ml. 20 timer senere ble cellene høstet ved sentrifugering, vasket i en passende buffer (f.eks. 10 mM Tris.HCl pH 7,4, 140 mM NaCl, 1,5 mM MgCl2) og suspendert i 10 ml lyseringsbuffer (f.eks. 10 mM Tris.HCl pH 8,4, 140 mM NaCl, 1,5 mM MgCl-, 0,5 % "Nonidet-P 40" [ikke-ionisk Detergens ]). Etter 10 minutter lang inkubering i is-bad ble suspensjonen rystet en kort stund og cellekjernene fjernet ved sentrifugering. Fra supernatanten fra sentrifugeringen (= cytoplasma) ble RNA isolert ved en i og for seg kjent fremgangsmåte, f.eks. ved ekstraksjon med fenol (se Aviv et al., Proe. Nati. Acad. Sei. USA 69, 1408-1412 (1977)). RNA ble 10% fetal calf serum at a cell density of approx. 5 x 10 5 cells/ml and added 20 ng mezerin/ml. 20 hours later, the cells were harvested by centrifugation, washed in an appropriate buffer (e.g. 10 mM Tris.HCl pH 7.4, 140 mM NaCl, 1.5 mM MgCl2) and suspended in 10 ml of lysis buffer (e.g. 10 mM Tris.HCl pH 8.4, 140 mM NaCl, 1.5 mM MgCl-, 0.5% "Nonidet-P 40" [Nonionic Detergent ]). After 10 minutes of incubation in an ice bath, the suspension was shaken for a short time and the cell nuclei removed by centrifugation. From the supernatant from the centrifugation (= cytoplasm), RNA was isolated by a method known per se, e.g. by extraction with phenol (see Aviv et al., Proe. Nati. Acad. Sei. USA 69, 1408-1412 (1977)). RNA became
til slutt oppløst i vann (konsentrasjon ca. 3-5 mg/ml) og finally dissolved in water (concentration approx. 3-5 mg/ml) and
translatert i oocytter Xenopus laevis ved i og for seg allerede kjent fremgangsmåte (se eksempelvis Colman et al., Cell 17, 517-526 (1979), Hitchcock et al., Anal. Biochem. 109, 338-344 translated in oocytes Xenopus laevis by a method already known per se (see for example Colman et al., Cell 17, 517-526 (1979), Hitchcock et al., Anal. Biochem. 109, 338-344
(1980) og Contreras et al., Anal. Biochem. 113, 185-187 (1981)). Translasjonsproduktene ble etterkontrollert i den biologiske prø-ven på deres lymfotoksin-aktivitet. (1980) and Contreras et al., Anal. Biochem. 113, 185-187 (1981)). The translation products were subsequently checked in the biological test for their lymphotoxin activity.
Den følgende tabell viser den cytotoksiske aktivitet som ble funnet i oocytt-dyrkingsvæske sammenlignet med RNA-preparater fra M0LT-4-celler, en human T-lymfocytt-cellelinje hvis dyrkingsvæsker ikke oppviser noen påvisbar lymfotoksin-aktivitet, samt dyrkingsvæsker fra ubehandlete oocytter: The following table shows the cytotoxic activity found in oocyte culture fluid compared to RNA preparations from M0LT-4 cells, a human T-lymphocyte cell line whose culture fluids show no detectable lymphotoxin activity, and culture fluids from untreated oocytes:
Tabellen viser at alle tre RNA-preparatene fra 16 70-celler samt et RNA-preparat fra 1022-celler i opp til 14 7 gangers fortynning bevirker en signifikant økning i frigitt radioaktivitet, mens RNA fra M0LT-4-celler ikke oppviser noen slik aktivitet. Disse forsøkene viser at det i RNA-preparater fra 1670- og 1022-celler finnes biologisk aktiv lymfotoksin-mRNA. The table shows that all three RNA preparations from 16 70 cells as well as an RNA preparation from 1022 cells in up to 14 7-fold dilution cause a significant increase in released radioactivity, while RNA from M0LT-4 cells does not show any such activity . These experiments show that biologically active lymphotoxin mRNA is found in RNA preparations from 1670 and 1022 cells.
