Definitions

  • the present invention is generally in the area of medical treatments, and specifically relates to an method for creating new tissue, especially cartilage, bone and endothelial tissue.
  • Cartilage is a specialized type of dense connective tissue consisting of cells embedded in a matrix. There are several kinds of cartilage.
  • Translucent cartilage having a homogeneous matrix containing collagenous fibers is found in articular cartilage, in costal cartilages, in the septum of the nose, in larynx and trachea.
  • Articular cartilage is hyaline cartilage covering the articular surfaces of bones.
  • Costal cartilage connects the true ribs and the sternum.
  • Fibrous cartilage contains collagen fibers.
  • Yellow cartilage is a network of elastic fibers holding cartilage cells which is primarily found in the epiglottis, the external ear, and the auditory tube.
  • U.S. Patent No. 5,041,138 to Vacanti, et al. discloses the use of an open synthetic polymeric matrix which is seeded with cells for implantation into a patient to create new cartilage.
  • a fibrous structure is preferred to allow maximum surface area for attachment of cells at the same time as allowing for sufficient diffusion of nutrients and gases to maintain cell viability in the absence of vascularization.
  • dissociated cells are seeded onto matrices which are then implanted and evolve into new tissue. This technique has now been used extensively in animals and a human, with promising results. This technique is limited however, by the availability of suitable polymeric support materials.
  • a method for creating new tissue wherein cells are suspended in cryoprecipitate or fibrinogen (jointly referred to herein as "fibrinogen") which is clotted by exposure to thrombin or other serine esterase.
  • the cells and fibrinogen are autologous, derived by biopsy and cryoprecipitation of a plasma sample, respectively.
  • Other protein matrices can be substituted for the fibrin, where the protein has similar characteristics and can be crosslinked easily by addition of an agent such as calcium.
  • the method is particularly useful for creation of new cartilage in the repair of defects such as worn or torn joint linings or construction of ears and noses.
  • the method is also particularly useful where tissue such as endothelial tissue or cartilage is used to oblate a structure, such as fallopian tubes or the vas deferens, or in the repair of defects such as incomplete closure of structures, for example, the heart. Examples demonstrate formation of new cartilage in mice.
  • the method described herein generally consists of making a suspension of dissociated cells that are to be implanted to form new tissue with an aqueous solution of a crosslinkable endogenous protein, implanting the suspension into the site where tissue is to be formed, and crosslinking the protein.
  • the protein solution is cryoprecipitate or fibrinogen derived from the patient in which the tissue is to be implanted, which is clotted with human thrombin, and the cells are autologous cells derived from the patient by biopsy.
  • cryoprecipitate is prepared from a plasma sample obtained directly from the patient into which the cell suspension is to be implanted.
  • One unit of human blood consists of approximately 350 to 450 mis, which is preferably collected in ACD (citric acid-dextrose) anticoagulant, although other acceptable anticoagulants can be used such as ethylene diamine tetraacetate.
  • ACD citric acid-dextrose
  • the red blood cells are removed by centrifugation or filtration, and the separated plasma chilled at 4°C until cryoprecipitate is formed, typically about three days.
  • Cryoprecipitate consists predominantly of fibrinogen. Fresh frozen plasma can also be used.
  • fibrinogen is also available from commercial suppliers such as Sigma Chemical Co., Baxter Diagnostics, and Ortho Pharmaceuticals. As used herein, the term "fibrinogen” is intended to encompass either cryoprecipitate or purified fibrinogen, unless specifically stated otherwise.
  • Other materials that can be used as a source of fibrinogen besides cryoprecipitate, fresh frozen plasma, and purified fibrinogen include factor VIII concentrate, platelet concentrate, and platelet rich plasma.
  • Proteins other than fibrinogen can be substituted for the fibrinogen where the protein can be prepared and crosslinked using a physiologically acceptable crosslinker such as calcium.
  • a physiologically acceptable crosslinker such as calcium.
  • cells of the same species and preferably immunological profile are obtained by biopsy, either from the patient or a close relative, which are then grown to confluence in culture using standard techniques known for cell culture and used as needed. If cells that may elicit an immune reaction are used, such as human chondrocytes from an immunologically distinct individual, then the recipient can be immunosuppressed as needed, for example, using a schedule of steroids and other immunosuppressant drugs such as cyclosporine A, Imuran, or prednisone, using the dosages recommended by the manufacturer for immunosuppression of transplants, and/or the cells irradiated prior to transplantation.
  • the cells are autologous. Cultured cells of some cell types are available from sources such as the American Type Culture Collection, Rockville, MD. Only normal, non-transformed cells which exhibit contact inhibition characteristic of normal cells should be implanted.
  • Examples of cell types that can be implanted to form cartilage include chondrocytes, subchondral cells and fibroblasts.
  • Examples of cell types that can be implanted to form bone include osteocytes, periosteocytes and fibroblasts, under appropriate conditions.
  • Examples of parenchymal cell types include many types of cells present in tissues such as intestine, pancreas, liver. Examples of other cell types that can be implanted include muscle cells, Dermafibroblasts, mesenchymal cells and cells forming tendons and ligaments.
  • cartilage can be obtained from another site in the patient or from autopsy, using for example, cartilage obtained from joints or rib regions.
  • the cartilage is sterilized, for example, by washing in Povidone-Iodine 10% solution (Betadine, Purdue

  • chondrocytes Precursor cells of chondrocytes can also be used in place of the chondrocytes.
  • An example is fibroblasts which differentiate to form chondrocytes.
  • chondrocytes includes chondrocyte precursor cells. Other cell types are similarly dispersed.
  • muscle cells can be obtained by mincing small detrusor muscle fragments to approximately 0.5 mm diameter and using these as explants in 100 mm tissue culture dishes containing 10 mL of DMEM supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum. Outgrowth is routinely observed at 72 hr after explants are placed in culture. When cultures are 80% confluent, the cells were trypsinized and passaged. Cell populations highly enriched in elongated, striated cells are routinely obtained using this method.

  • the fibrinogen is clotted by exposure to an enzyme such as thrombin in the presence of physiological calcium immediately prior to or at the time of implantation. Additional crosslinking is obtained by exposure to factor Xllla.
  • thrombin is commercially available from the same suppliers as purified human fibrinogen, for example, Parke- Davis or Johnson and Johnson; it appears to be irrelevant whether it is human or bovine. In the preferred embodiment, 10,000 units of thrombin is added to the cryoprecipitate from one unit of whole blood.
  • Other serine esterases are known to those skilled in the art, such as factor Xa, which can be used instead of thrombin to cleave the fibrinogen into fibrin. Other esterases such as factor Xllla can also be used.
  • Thrombin and factor Xllla cleave fibrinogen or fibrin monomers, respectively, during the normal clotting process.

  • alginate As reported by Atala et al, "Injectable alginate seeded with chondrocyte as a potential treatment for vesicoureteral reflux" J. Urol. 150:745 (1993), alginate, a biodegradable polymer, embedded with chondrocytes, can serve as a synthetic substrate for the injectable delivery and maintenance of cartilage architecture in humans.
  • a biopsy of the symphysis pubis can be easily and quickly performed using a biopsy gun followed by chondrocyte processing and endoscopic injection of the autologous chondrocyte/alginate suspension for the treatment reflux.
  • the alginate can be replaced with fibrinogen clotted with thrombin. It is preferable to implant rather than inject the fibrinogen-cell mixture, however, and the degradation profile of the totally endogenous fibrinogen is distinct from that of alginate or synthetic polymers.
  • chondrocytes can be easily harvested and combined with a matrix in vi tro, implanted cystoscopically and the elastic cartilage tissue formed is able to correct vesicoureteral reflux without any evidence of obstruction.
  • the resulting autologous cartilage is non-antigenic, non-migratory, and volume stable. Since the chondrocyte are autologous, this method of treatment does not require FDA approval.
  • the procedure can be performed under 15 minutes, with a short period of a mask anesthetic, in the outpatient unit, without any need for a hospital stay. Neither vesical nor perivesical drainage is required. Since the whole procedure is done endoscopically and the bladder is not entered surgically, there is no postoperative discomfort. The patient can return to a normal level of activity almost immediately.
  • the cells to be implanted are obtained, for example, by biopsy from the patient who is also to be the recipient, the cells are dissociated and proliferated, a unit of blood is drawn from the patient and cryoprecipitate made, the cryoprecipitate is mixed with the cells and thrombin in the presence of calcium, and the mixture implanted at the site where tissue is to be formed: in a lumen, in a joint lining, in the mesentery or adjacent an adequate blood supply or highly vascularized area, optionally with a portocaval shunt in the case of hepatocytes and other cells benefitting from the addition of hepatotropic factors.
  • the cell-matrix suspensions could be used to obliterate fistula related to the sinus tract, nasal-cutaneous, bronchopleural and intraabdominal fistulae, by endoscopic injection of the suspension into the cavity.
  • Heart valves, trachea, inner ear structures, and implants could be formed by using molds seeded with cells in a fibrin matrix allowed to grow in vi tro, then implanted subcutaneously.
  • Example 1 Preparation of Fibrinogen-Cell Matrix.
  • the twice frozen and thawed plasma was centrifuged at 4°C at 4200 rpm for 12 minutes. Following centrifugation the bag containing the cryoprecipitated fibrinogen was inverted and the plasma drained into the attached transfer bag, leaving 3 to 5 cc of concentrated fibrinogen.
  • the product for clinical use routinely contains 39.8 to 58.9 mg/ml fibrinogen.
  • the autologous fibrinogen concentrate can be frozen at less than -18°C for storage of up to one year from the collection date of the whole blood. The range of concentrations obtainable is from 20 to 77 mg/ml.
  • the autologous fibrinogen concentration Prior to surgical application, the autologous fibrinogen concentration is thawed at 30 to 37°C in a water bath.
  • the thawed fibrinogen concentrate may be stored at 20 to 24°C for up to six hours before preparing the fibrin matrix.
  • Preparation of Fibrin Matrix Four ml of calcium chloride solution (40 ⁇ iM/liter) was added to a vial of thrombin (1000 U) and swirled until completely dissolved, for a final concentration of 250 U/ml. Equal volumes of calcium chloride/thrombin and fibrinogen concentrate were mixed together simultaneously according to the surgical protocol for application of the fibrin suspension. Fibrinogen gels into a fibrin clot within 20 to 30 seconds with a thrombin mixture concentrate of 250 U/cc, which is preferred for injection. Higher concentrations of thrombin
  • Example 2 Neocartilage formation in a fibrin glue matrix.
  • Bovine chondrocytes were isolated by enzymatic digestion from the glenohumeral joint surface of calf forelimbs. The isolated cells were combined with 1 ml of cryoprecipitate to create a final cell density of 12.5 x 10 6 cells/ml. Bovine thrombin was added to the mixture to produce a polymerizing gel. The resulting fibrin glue-chondrocyte admixture was placed subcutaneously in eighteen sites in nude mice. Separate control implants consisting of chondrocyte suspension or fibrin glue alone were also implanted. All specimens were weighed and processed for histological, total DNA, and glycoaminoglycan (GAG) analysis to demonstrate production of neocartilage.
  • GAG glycoaminoglycan
  • Histology and histomorphometry Specimens from each concentration and time point were collected. One half of each specimen was placed in 10% buffered formalin for histological preparation (the remaining half was used for GAG and DNA analysis described below) . The tissue was fixed for a minimum of 24 hours and dehydrated in increasing concentrations of ethanol and embedded in paraffin. Five micron sections were made and stained with hematoxylin and eosin, toluidine blue, safranin-O. Cartilage samples from donor articular cartilage processed in an identical manner served as one control. The histological sections were examined in a blinded fashion by three independent investigators and scored.
  • Glycosaminoglycan content Total glycosaminoglycan (GAG) content of the cell/polymer constructs was determined using a dimethylmethylene blue (DMB) dye method. DMB stock solution was made using DMB, NaCl, Glycine, Na azide, 1 N HC1, and water. The samples were digested with papain (125 mg/ml buffer of 0.1 M NaH 2 P0 4 , 5 mM EDTA, 5 mM cysteine HCl at pH 7.0 overnight at 60°C) before adding the dye. GAG was to be reported as a percent of wet weight.

Abstract

Procédé de création de nouveaux tissus dans lequel des cellules sont mises en suspension dans un cryoprécipité ou dans du fibrinogène (tous deux désignés ici par fibrinogène) qui est coagulé en présence de thrombine ou d'une autre sérine estérase. Dans le mode de réalisation préféré, les cellules et le fibrinogène sont autologues, et dérivés respectivement par biopsie et cryoprécipitation d'un échantillon de plasma. Ce procédé s'avère particulièrement utile pour créer de nouveaux cartilages dans la réparation de défectuosités telles que des ligaments usés ou déchirés, ou la reconstitution de nez ou d'oreilles. Il est particulièrement utile lorsque des tissus tels que des cartilages ou de l'endothélium sont utilisés pour obturer une structure telle que les trompes de Fallope ou le canal déférent, ou pour réparer des malformations telles que la fermeture incomplète de structures, telles que le c÷ur. Des exemples décrivent la formation de nouveaux cartilages chez les souris.
