  • Figure 1 is a schematic representation of the geometric configuration of the histocultures of the invention.
  • Figure 2 shows the response of uninfected histocultures to antigen.
  • the method employs a histoculture system which permits growth of intact tissue samples in three dimensions while providing for adequate supply of nutrients and oxygen.
  • the histoculture system employs a soft, porous matrix which is, preferably, comprised of extracellular material, such as collagen, polysaccharides, and the like. Suitable matrices are described in Leighton, J. (1957), Freeman (1986) and
  • the matrix is soft and flexible and may indent upon placement of the tissue such that the edges of the matrix may contact the vertical edges of the tissue.
  • the matrix provides a trabecular structure with interstices suited for capillary action to deliver nutrients in the aqueous medium to the tissue supported on the matrix.
  • extracellular macromolecules are preferred, other materials that may be appropriate for the matrix include nylon, borosilicate, glass fiber, or polypropylene.

A combination of these materials can be used as well, such as a top layer of collagen containing gel and a bottom layer of homopolysaccharide sponge.
  • suitable matrices can be prepared de novo provided that they are capable of conducting medium to the supported material through capillary action and provide flexible support capable of maintaining medium approximately at the interface between the support and the tissue placed thereon.
  • the ratio of the tissue sample size to the support matrix dimensions is variable; preferably the matrix is of larger top supporting surface area than required to cover the entirety of the tissue sample. Multiple samples can be placed on the same matrix; it is preferred that they do not touch.
  • the vertical dimension of the tissue is such that the nutrients of the medium can be transported through the tissue when the medium is maintained at approximately the lower surface of the tissue as placed on the support matrix.
  • the samples are placed on the matrix so that the interface between the tissue and the matrix coincides approximately with the surface of the medium.
  • the matrix with the tissue sample is immersed in a volume of medium sufficient to contact the matrix but not to completely cover the tissue.
  • the support matrix is preferably pretreated with the culture medium before the tissue sample is placed. This serves to equilibrate the matrix with the medium.
  • the matrix is cut to a predetermined size and soaked in the medium in a sterile container for a time sufficient to saturate and equilibrate the matrix, typically 4 hours at 37°C. - 5 -
  • the media employed can vary, but a typical medium would comprise Eagle's Minimum Essential Medium (MEM) with 10% fetal bovine serum, 0.1 mM nonessential amino acids, and the antibiotics gentamycin (100 ⁇ g/ml) and cefotaxime (95 ⁇ g/ml). Other antibiotics may also be used.
  • the histocultures of the invention have been shown to support living tissue for extended periods and can be used as model systems for viral infection, particularly HIV infection.
  • the progress of viral infection can be monitored in a variety of ways as is understood in the art. For example, at various time points after application of an effective amount virus to maintain viral growth, the tissues can be dissociated into single cells and the cells counted. Any method for counting the cells may be used, typically the cells are stained, either with an appropriate dye or with a labeled antibody. The cells can then be counted using any art-recognized techniques, for example, by flow cytometry.

  • the histoculture system can mount an immune response to an added antigen.
  • the histoculture system can also serve as a model for specific immune response in normal tissue.
  • a test recall antigen is supplied to the medium over several days and the medium then analyzed for specific immunoglobulins raised against the antigen.
  • Cytokine concentration in the culture medium can also be monitored using matched antibody pairs and cytokine standards (Endogen, Woburn, MA) in an ELIS A sandwich assay. Further, cells can be analyzed by flow cytometry by mechanically isolating them both from control cultures and from cultures treated with antigen, and then staining for cell surface markers using standard techniques.
  • the ability to mount an immune response to added antigen makes the system particularly valuable in the context of monitoring HIV infection, since infection by HIV may inhibit this immune response, and the ability of HIV infection to do so can be monitored.
  • This provides an additional method for screening protocols and compositions useful in treating HIV, since the system can be tested in the presence and absence of the protocol or composition under conditions where an antigen has also been supplied and the effect of the protocol or composition on the development of immunodeficiency can be measured.
  • the histocultures, infected with the virus of interest are cultured in the presence and absence of a candidate drug or protocol and the effect on the growth of the viral cells and on the health of viral-infected cells is assessed.
  • the drug or protocol is a successful candidate for viral treatment.
  • This aspect is particularly important with respect to HIV, in view of the lack of suitable model systems for this virus.
  • this assay system can also be modified when HIV is the infective agent by monitoring the progress of immunodeficiency characterizing a response to an antigen in the presence of HIV infection.
  • the effect of a candidate protocol or composition in controlling this immunodeficiency response can then be assessed.
  • the histocultures may also be used to culture viruses of interest that may be difficult to passage in in vitro culture.
  • the histocultures serve as diagnostic tools in assessing the progress of therapy.
  • biopsies are removed from a patient being treated with a therapeutic regime and the effect on further growth in histoculture is assessed. This can be performed at various stages of the disease.
  • Example 1 Preparation of Tonsil Histocultures Human tonsils, surgically removed during therapeutic tonsillectomy, were dissected and blocks of tissue of about 1-2 mm in diameter were cultured on collagen sponge gel supports at a liquid/air interface for 10-26 days, as described by Freeman, A.E. et al, Proc Natl Acad Sci USA (1986) 83:2694-2698.
  • the histocultures maintained their morphology, and extended networks of follicular dendritic cells were found inside germinal centers by 3D reconstruction of confocal optical sections of histoculture blocks immunostained with FITC-labeled anti-CD21 antibodies.
  • the cultures also produced IgG.
  • Immunohistochemical analysis revealed well-defined germinal centers formed by B cells with T cells concentrated around them. Although in the first 24-36 hours, some depletion of lymphocytes occurred, all of the key elements of tissue architecture were preserved even in the fourth week in culture.
  • Example 2 Virus Production The histocultures prepared as in Example 1 were infected with HIV-1 at a multiplicity of infection (MOI) of 400-900 TCID 50 (median tissue culture infectious dose) per block.
  • MOI multiplicity of infection
  • TCID 50 medium tissue culture infectious dose
  • LAV.04 (SI), a laboratory strain that induces syncytia in various cell lines and peripheral blood cells;
  • virus infectious titers increased from undetectable levels on day - 8 -
  • Example 3 Monitoring Progress of Infection Tissue blocks from the same tonsil were divided in half. One half was inoculated with HIV. The response to infection was monitored by dissociating the tissue blocks into single cells at various time points, staining with fluorescent antibodies and counting cell populations using flow cytometry.
  • the absolute numbers of cell subsets in a block can be estimated by adding an internal standard number of fluorescent beads to the dissociated cell suspensions.
  • the observed decrease in the number of T cells was mainly due to depletion of the CD4 " subset to 4 ⁇ 2% of control. - 9 -
  • Example 4 Monitoring Progress of an Immune Response Tonsil histocultures were prepared as described in Example 1 from 55 human donors. Either tetanus toxoid (TT) or diphtheria toxin (DT) was added to the medium for 2 days; starting at day 2, the medium was changed every 3 days. Control cultures without TT or DT were analyzed along with the test cultures. Total IgG, IgM and anti-TT or anti-DT IgG were assayed in the collected medium samples using standard ELISA techniques with calibrated standards of human IgG and IgM.
