Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of cell and tissue culture. More specifically, the invention relates to methods and compositions for ex vivo propagation of cells capable of forming cartilaginous tissue intended for treatment or repair of cartilage defects.
- Articular cartilage is composed of chondrocytes encased within the complex extracellular matrix produced by these cells.
- the unique biochemical composition of this matrix provides for the smooth, nearly frictionless motion of articulating surfaces of the knee joint.
- tensile properties of human articular cartilage change as a result of biochemical changes.
- the tensile strength of articular cartilage decreases markedly. Damage of cartilage produced by trauma or disease, e.g., rheumatoid and osteoarthritis, can lead to serious physical debilitation.
- Articular chondrocytes express articular cartilage-specific extracellular matrix components. Once articular chondrocytes are harvested and separated from the tissue by enzymatic digestion, they can be cultured in monolayers for proliferative expansion. However, during tissue culture, these cells become phenotypically unstable, adopt a fibroblastic morphology, and then cease to produce type II collagen and proteoglycans characteristic of hyaline-like articular cartilage. Such "dedifferentiated" cells proliferate rapidly and produce type I collagen, which is characteristic of fibrous tissue. Nevertheless, when placed in an appropriate environment such as suspension culture medium in vitro (Aulthouse et al. (1989) In Vitro Cell. & Devel.
- Human chondrocytes are typically cultured in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium (DMEM) supplemented with 10% (v/v) fetal bovine serum (FBS) (Aulthouse et al. (1989) In Vitro Cell. & Devel. Biology, 25: 659-668; Bon Rush et al. (1994) Exp. Cell Res., 212: 97-104).
- DMEM Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium
- FBS fetal bovine serum
- serum contains many unidentified or non-quantified components and therefore is not "defined;” 2) the composition of serum varies from lot to lot, making standardization difficult for experimentation or other uses of cell culture; 3) many of the serum components affect cell attachment, proliferation, and differentiation making it difficult to control these parameters; 4) some components of serum are inhibitory to the proliferation of specific cell types and to some degree may counteract its proliferative effect, resulting in sub-optimal growth; and 5) serum may contain viruses and other pathogens which may affect the outcome of experiments or provide a potential health hazard if the cultured cells are intended for implantation in humans.
- defined serum-free media is particularly advantageous in the ex vivo expansion of chondrocytes for treatment of cartilage defects.
- such defined serum-free media must be sufficient for attachment of adult human articular chondrocytes seeded at low density, sustain proliferation until confluent cultures are attained, and maintain the capacity of chondrocytes to re-express the articular cartilage phenotype.
- DM biochemically defined media
- DM generally includes nutrients, growth factors, hormones, attachment factors, and lipids.
- the precise composition must be tailored for the specific cell type for which the medium is designed.
- Successful growth of some cell types, including fibroblasts, keratinocytes, and epithelial cells has been achieved in various DM (reviewed by Freshney, 1994).
- attachment and proliferation of cells in the known media are often not optimal.
- Still another object of the invention is to provide a method for ex vivo expansion of articular chondrocytes, in which the cells retain their redifferentiation capacity.
- the invention provides a method for culturing human articular chondrocytes and compositions of chemically defined culture media.
- the DM of the invention avoid the use of serum at any stage of chondrocyte culture and enhance cell attachment and proliferation under serum-free conditions while maintaining the capacity of chondrocytes to re-express cartilage-specific phenotype.
- One aspect of the invention provides defined cell culture media that are sufficient for the initial attachment of cells to a culture substratum, thereby eliminating a need for a serum-containing medium in the initial stage of cell culture.
- Another aspect of the invention provides defined serum-free cell culture media that promote proliferation of chondrocytes without use of serum at any stage during cell culture.
- Yet another aspect of the invention provides cell culture media that may be used to prime chondrocytes prior to implantation into a subject or included as a redifferentiation-sustaining medium to chondrocytes embedded in a matrix intended for implantation into cartilage defects.
- the DM of the invention comprises a basal medium.
- the basal medium is prepared using commercially available culture media such as DMEM, RPMI-1640, and Ham's F-12.
- DMEM, RPMI-1640, and Ham's F-12 are mixed at a 1:1:1 ratio and combined with growth supplements to produce the basal medium defined in Table 3 (referred to hereinafter as cDRF).
- the DM of the invention comprises at least two of the supplements selected from the group consisting of: platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), and one or more lipid components selected from the group consisting of stearic acid, myristic acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid, palmitic acid, palmitoleic acid, arachidonic acid, linolenic acid, cholesterol, and alpha-tocopherol acetate.
- DM comprises PDGF and at least one lipid component.
- DM comprises PDGF and at least two, four, six, eight, or all of the lipid components set forth in Table 4.
- the PDGF is PDGF-BB.
- the concentration of PDGF is chosen from 0.1-1 ng/ml, 1-5 ng/ml, 5-10 ng/ml, 10 ng/ml, 10-15 ng/ml, 15-50 ng/ml, and 50-100 ng/ml.
- the concentration (v/v) of lipid components is chosen from 0.05-0.1%, 0.1-0.5%, 0.5%, 0.5-1%, 1-2%, and 2-5%.
- Figure 1 is a diagram of growth index for human articular chondrocytes propagated ex vivo for four passages in DMEM/10% FBS or cDRF (defined in Table 3), cDRF supplemented with 10 ng/ml PDGF, and cDRF supplemented with 10 ng/ml PDGF and 5 ⁇ l/ml of the chemically defined lipid mixture (CDLM) set forth in Table 4.
- CDLM chemically defined lipid mixture
- Figure 2 illustrates cell yields for human articular chondrocytes plated at various seeding densities and propagated ex vivo for four passages in DMEM/10% FBS or in the defined serum-free media as follows: cDRF; cDRF supplemented with 10 ng/ml PDGF; and cDRF supplemented with 10 ng/ml PDGF and 5 ⁇ l/ml CDLM.
- Figures 3A and 3B depict results of a TaqMan analysis of genes expressed by chondrocytes expanded in DMEM/10% FBS or in cDRF supplemented with 10 ng/ml PDGF and 5 ⁇ l/ml CDLM.
- This invention provides a method for culturing chondrocytes in a defined serum-free media and is based, at least in part, on the discovery that the basal medium referred to as cDRF, as described below, when supplemented with PDGF and at least on of the lipids set forth in Table 4, is sufficient for attachment, proliferation and maintenance of redifferentiation-capable chondrocytes in culture and can substitute for a serum-containing medium in all stages of cell culture.
- cDRF basal medium
- the first step in preparing defined, serum media (DM) of the invention is to prepare a basal medium.
- the basal medium defined in Table 3 (cDRF)
- cDRF is prepared from commercially available starting components as described below.
- cDRF is a modification of the DM developed by Adolphe et al. (1994) and by McPherson et al. (United States Patent No. 6,150,163).
- cDRF The three starting components of cDRF are DMEM, RPMI-1640, and Ham's F12 (Gibco BRL, Grand Island, NY). The precise composition of each of these starting components is set forth in Table 1. The starting components are combined at a 1:1:1 ratio.
- the resulting medium (defined in Table 2 and referred to as DRF) is then supplemented with ITS (10 ⁇ g/ml insulin, 5.5 ⁇ g/ml transferrin, 7 ng/ml selenium, and, optionally, 2.0 ⁇ g/ml ethanolamine), human fibronectin (Collaborative Biomedical Products, Bedford, MA), human serum albumin (HSA), linoleic acid, human basic fetal growth factor (bFGF) (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN), gentamycin (BioWhittaker, Walkersville, MD), and hydrocortisone (Sigma, St. Louis, MO) to create cDRF.

- human fibronectin Collaborative Biomedical Products, Bedford, MA
- HSA human serum albumin
- bFGF human basic feta
- Freshly prepared incomplete cDRF (cDRF without bFGF, fibronectin, linoleic acid, and HSA) can be stored in the dark up to 2 weeks at 2-8°C.
- bFGF, fibronectin, and HSA supplemented with linoleic acid are diluted into the medium to create cDRF on the day of use for cell culture.
- HSA utilized in the media of the invention is either purified from human plasma (Grifols ® HSA, SeraCare, Oceanside, CA) or recombinant (New Century Pharmaceuticals, Huntsville, AL). All materials are reconstituted, diluted, and stored as per suppliers' recommendations.
- basal medium is used interchangeably with “defined basal medium” and refers to any medium that comprises all essential components of cDRF listed in Table 3.
- a component or a subset of components listed in Table 3 is non-essential if, when its concentration is reduced, or the component is eliminated, the properties of the medium related to chondrocyte attachment, proliferation, and redifferentiation, remain substantially the same.
- concentrations of individual components may be adjusted for specific cell culture conditions. Such adjustments can easily be made by a person skilled in the art using routine techniques. It will also be understood that additional components may be added to the medium if such components are desirable and do not negatively impact on chondrocytes attachment, proliferation, and redifferentiation.
- Such components include growth factors, lipids, serum proteins, vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates.
- growth factors or hormones that promote chondrocyte redifferentiation such as TGF- ⁇ (TGF- ⁇ 1 , - ⁇ 2, - ⁇ 3), IGF, and insulin, as described in U.S. Patent No. 6,150,163.
- TGF- ⁇ TGF- ⁇ 1 , - ⁇ 2, - ⁇ 3
- IGF insulin
- Additional examples of supplements include, but are not limited to, bone morphogeneteic proteins (BMP), of which there are at least 15 structurally and functionally related proteins. BMP have been shown to be involved in the growth, differentiation, chemotaxis, and apoptosis of various cell types.
- Recombinant BMP-4 and BMP-6 can be purchased from R&D Systems (Minneapolis, MN; catalog # 314-BP and 507-BP, respectively).
- concentration of various supplements in DM of the invention can be determined without undue experimentation.
- concentration of BMP in DM of the invention is chosen from 0.01-0.1 ng/ml, 0.1-1 ng/ml, 1-10 ng/ml, 100 ng/ml, 10-50 ng/ml, 50-100 ng/ml, and 0.1-1 ⁇ g/ml.

- DM of the invention may be supplemented with serum e.g., fetal calf serum, or other chemically undefined components such as, for example, animal or plant tissue extracts.
- the DM of the invention may be supplemented with 10% or less than 8%, 6%, 4%, 2%, or 1% of serum.
- cDRF may be prepared from a variety of known media, e.g., Basal Medium Eagle medium (Eagle, Science, 122: 501 , 1955), Minimum Essential medium (Dulbecco et al., Virology, 8: 396, 1959), Ham's medium (Ham, Exp. Cell Res., 29: 515, 1963), L-15 medium (Leibvitz, Amer. J. Hyg., 78:173, 1963), McCoy 5A medium (McCoy et al., Proc. Exp. Biol. Med., 100: 115, 1958), RPMI medium (Moore et al., J. A. M.
- cDRF Basal medium equivalent to cDRF
- cDRF or its equivalent can be prepared from individual chemicals or from other media and growth supplements.
- the invention is not limited to media of any particular consistency and encompasses the use of media ranging from liquid to semi-solid and includes solidified media and solid compositions suitable for reconstitution.
- PDGF Platelet-Derived Growth Factor
- PDGF is a major mitogenic factor present in serum but not in plasma.
- PDGF is a dimeric molecule consisting of two structurally related chains designated A and B.
- the dimeric isoforms PDGF-AA, AB and BB are differentially expressed in various cell types.
- all PDGF isoforms are potent mitogens for connective tissue cells, including dermal fibroblasts, glial cells, arterial smooth muscle cells, and some epithelial and endothelial cell.
- PDGF-BB Human recombinant PDGF-BB (hrPDGF-BB) used in the examples below was purchased from R&D Systems (Minneapolis, MN; catalog # 220-BB) and reconstituted and handled according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- the E. coli expression of hrPDGF-BB and the DNA sequence encoding the 109 amino acid residue mature human PDGF-B chain protein (C-terminally processed from that ends with threonine residue 190 in the precursor sequence) is described by Johnson et al. (EMBO J., 3: 921 , 1984).
- the disulfide-linked homodimeric rhPDGF-BB consists of two 109 amino acid residue B chains and has molecular weight of about 25 kDa.
- the activity of PDGF is measured by its ability to stimulate 3 H-thymidine incorporation in quiescent NR6R-3T3 fibroblast as described by Raines et al. (Methods in Enzymology 109: 749-773, 1985).
- the ED 50 for PDGF in this assay is typically 1.0-3 ng/ml.
- DM of the invention is cDRF supplemented with PDGF and BMP or one or more lipids selected from the group consisting of stearic acid, myristic acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid, palmitic acid, palmitoleic acid, arachidonic acid, linolenic acid, cholesterol, and alpha-tocopherol acetate.
- concentration of PDGF is chosen from 0.1-1 ng/ml, 1-5 ng/ml, 5-10 ng/ml, 10 ng/ml, 10-15 ng/ml, 15-50 ng/ml, and 50-100 ng/ml.
- cDRF is supplemented with 1 to 25 ng/ml, more preferably, 5 to 15 ng/ml and, most preferably, 10 ng/ml of PDGF.
- the PDGF is PDGF-BB.
- PDGF could be of another type, e.g., PDGF-AB, PDGF-BB, or a mix of any PDGF types.
- the DM of the invention further comprises additional supplements as described below.
- Lipids are important as structural components as well as potential energy sources in living cells. In vitro, most cells can synthesize lipids from glucose and amino acids present in the culture medium. However, if extracellular lipid is available, lipid biosynthesis is inhibited and the cells utilize free fatty acids, lipid esters, and cholesterol in the medium. Serum is rich in lipids and has been the major source of extracellular lipid for cultured cells. Chemically undefined lipid preparations based on marine oils have been found to be effective in promoting growth of cells in serum free-media in several systems (Weiss et al. (1990) In Vitro 26: 30A; Gorfien et al. (1990) In Vitro 26: 37A; Fike et al. (1990) In Vitro 26: 54A). Thus, supplementation of serum-free media with various lipids to replace those normally supplied by serum may be desirable.
- Suitable lipids for use in the DM of this invention include stearic acid, myristic acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid, palmitic acid, palmitoleic acid, arachidonic acid, linolenic acid, cholesterol, and alpha-tocopherol acetate.
- the basal medium is supplemented with the chemically defined lipid mixture (CDLM), shown in Table 4.
- CDLM is available from Gibco BRL (catalog # 11905-031). As supplied by Gibco BRL, in addition to the lipid components, CDLM contains ethanol (100 g/L) and emulsifiers Pluronic F68 ® (100 g/L) and Tween 80 ® (2.2 g/L).
- the concentrations of individual lipid components of CDLM shown in Table 4 may be adjusted for specific cell culture conditions. Such adjustments can easily be made by a person skilled in the art using routine techniques. Furthermore, not all components of CDLM may be essential. A component or a subset of components is non-essential if, when its concentration is reduced, or the component is eliminated, the properties of the medium related to chondrocyte attachment, proliferation, and redifferentiation, remain substantially the same.
- the DM of the invention comprises at least one, two, four, six, eight, or all lipid components of CDLM.
- the DM comprises PDGF and CDLM as defined in Table 4.
- the DM comprises PDGF and lipid combination as set forth in Table 5.
- the concentration (v/v) of lipids in the culture medium is chosen from 0.05-0.1%, 0.1-0.5%, 0.5%, 0.5-1%, 1-2%, and 2-5%.
- DM is additionally supplemented with 1 to 25 ng/ml, more preferably, 5 to 15 ng/ml, and, most preferably, 10 ng/ml of PDGF.
- DM comprises approximately 0.5% (v/v) CDLM, and 10 ng/ml PDGF.
- the media can be used to seed, grow, and maintain chondrocytes capable of redifferentiation in culture without the use of serum.
- concentrations of PDGF and lipids may need to be adjusted for specific cell culture conditions. Such adjustments can easily be made by a person skilled in art using routine techniques. Table 5 Illustrative Lipid Combinations
- the present invention is generally suitable for ex wVo proliferation of cells capable of producing cartilaginous tissue.
- Chondrocytes are cells found in various types of cartilage, e.g., hyaline cartilage, elastic cartilage, and fibrocartilage. Chondrocytes are mesenchymal cells that have a characteristic phenotype based primarily on the type of extracellular matrix they produce. Precursor cells produce type I collagen, but when they become committed to the chondrocyte lineage, they stop producing type I collagen and start synthesizing type II collagen, which constitutes a substantial portion of the extracellular matrix. In addition, committed chondrocytes produce proteoglycan aggregate, called aggrecan, which has glycosaminoglycans that are highly sulfated.
- Chondrocytes can be isolated from any mammal, including, without limitation, human, orangutan, monkey, chimpanzee, dog, cat, rat, rabbit, mouse, horse, cow, pig, elephant, etc.
- Chondrocytes used in the present invention can be isolated by any suitable method.
- Various starting materials and methods for chondrocyte isolation are well known in the art (Freshney (1987) Culture of Animal Cells: A Manual of Basic Techniques, 2d ed. A. R. Liss, Inc., New York, pp. 137-168; Klagsburn (1979) Methods Enzymol. 58: 560-564).
- articular cartilage can be harvested from femoral condyles of human donors, and chondrocytes can be released from the cartilage by overnight digestion in 0.1 % collagenase/DMEM.
- the released cells are expanded as primary cells in a suitable medium such as the DM of this invention or DMEM containing 10% FBS.
- Cells can be passaged at 80-90% confluence using 0.05% trypsin-EDTA, diluted for subculture, and reseeded for second and subsequent passages to allow for further expansion.
- trypsinized cells can be frozen in DMEM containing 10% DMSO and 40% HSA or in other compositions known in the art, e.g., as described in U.S. Patent No. 6,365,405.
- chondrocyte progenitor stem cells such as mesenchymal stem cells rather than cells from cartilage biopsies that are already differentiated into chondrocytes.
- tissues from which such stem cells can be isolated include placenta, umbilical cord, bone marrow, skin, muscle, periosteum, or perichondrium. Chondrocytes can be obtained by inducing differentiation of such cells into chondrocytes in vitro.
- chondrocytes refers not only to mesenchymal stem cells, but also to cells that can be trans-differentiated into chondrocytes, for example, adipocytes, osteocytes, fibroblasts, and myocytes.
- chondrocytes also refers to chondrocytes that are passaged or dedifferentiated.
- low density refers to seeding densities less than 20,000 cells/cm 2 .
- the methods of this invention are suitable for cells growing in cultures under various conditions including, but not limited to, monolayers, multilayers, on solid support, in suspension, and in 3D cultures.
- DMEM/10% FBS DMEM supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum and 100 ⁇ g/ml gentamycin
- cDRF/P cDRF supplemented with 10 ng/ml PDGF
- Hyaline cartilage biopsy samples collected from multiple donors were used to compare cell yields as a function of the passage number for chondrocytes cultured in DMEM/10% FBS or in a completely defined serum-free medium according to this invention. Samples were collected and treated as described in Example 1. Isolated chondrocytes were washed twice in DMEM containing 10% human serum albumin (DMEM/10% HSA). The isolated primary human articular chodrocytes (HAC) were seeded at 6,000 cells/cm 2 in T75 flasks using the following media conditions:
- DMEM/10% FBS DMEM supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum and 100 ⁇ g/ml gentamycin
- cDRF/P/L cDRF supplemented with 10 ng/ml PDGF and 5 ⁇ l/ml CDLM
- Growth index expressed as a number of doublings per day at the end of a seven-day period was calculated as the mean value for the three donor samples, with each sample being represented by the average of duplicates derived from the donor.
- a comparison of growth index for chondrocytes propagated in DMEM/10% FBS and in completely defined serum-free media is illustrated in Figure 1.
- Growth index for chondrocytes propagated in DMEM/10% FBS and those propagated in cDRF/P/L were comparable whereas cells propagated in cDRF/P or cDRF had slightly lower growth index.
- Chondrocytes grown as monolayer in DM of the invention did not have the typical fibroblastic morphology when compared with chondrocytes grown in DMEM/10% FBS, but had a very distinct cell shape with well defined borders.
- Chondrocytes grown in cDRF/P/L had at least comparable or higher yields than cells grown in DMEM/10% FBS or cDRF/P, whereas cells propagated in cDRF had slightly lower yields as compared to DMEM/10% FBS. The difference was more pronounced for cells passaged at seeding density of 6,000 cells/cm 2 . Additionally, cells grown in cDRF or cDRF/P had higher yields at higher seeding densities.
- Chondrocytes were seeded at 2 ⁇ 10 6 cells/cm 2 on top of the filter in
- DMEM/20% FBS or in a DMEM-based differentiation medium DMEM supplemented with 2 mg/ml HSA, 5 ⁇ g/ml linoleic acid, 2% ITS.
- the cultures were maintained at 37°C in a humidified atmosphere supplemented with 5%
- PDGF-BB 10 ng/ml PDGF-BB were added to the media. The media were changed every two days. After 1 week, the chondrocyte cultures on the filter inserts were harvested at selected intervals and fixed in 10% formalin, embedded in paraffin and cut in 5 ⁇ m sections that were then stained with toluidine blue or safranin-O. These reagents stain sulphated proteoglycans. Sulphated glycosaminoglycans were quantified using a modified dimethylmethylene blue assay according to the procedure described by Farndale et al. (Biochimica et Biophyca Ada 883:173-177, 1986).
- chondrocytes passaged in cDRF/P/L accumulated an extracellular matrix, which contained proteoglycans and collagen, and formed a continuous layer of cartilaginous tissue.
- These chondrocytes showed an increase in the amount of tissue produced and the matrical staining of proteoglycans when compared with chondrocyted propagated with DMEM/10% FBS.
- the cells propagated in cDRF/P/L readily underwent differentiation from a monolayer to round cells with lacunae chondrogenic morphology and expressed more type II collagen as compared to DMEM/10% FBS.
- results of this experiment demonstrate that chondrocytes propagated in DM of the invention, are capable of re-expressing their chondrocyte phenotype, i.e., they retain their redifferentiation potential.
- results also demonstrate the feasibility of producing preformed cartilage grafts from propagated chondrocytes isolated and expanded in DM of the invention.
- chondrocytes were isolated and treated and expanded in DMEM/10% FBS or cDRF/P/L described in Example 2. These cultures were then harvested at 1 , 2, 3, and 4 weeks from seeding on the filter inserts. Subsequently, chondrocytes cultures were grown on Millicell-CM® filter inserts as described in Example 5. Gene expression was analyzed for the following proteins: aggrecan, type I collagen, type II collagen, type X collagen, osteocalcin, osteopontin, and versican.
- a Picogreen assay catalog # P-7589, Molecular Probes, Eugene, OR
- a TaqMan assay was performed to quantify of the absolute copy number of each gene using 25 ng of starting material from each sample. The number of gene copies was determined for each gene using a standard curve created with commercially available plasmid standards. The final results were adjusted in accordance with results of the PicoGreen assay.
