Description

細胞培養用培地、及び細胞培養方法Cell culture medium and cell culture method
 本発明は、細胞培養用培地、及び細胞培養方法に関し、特に間葉系幹細胞の培養に用いる細胞培養用培地、及び間葉系幹細胞の細胞培養方法に関する。 The present invention relates to a cell culture medium and a cell culture method, and more particularly to a cell culture medium used for culturing mesenchymal stem cells and a cell culture method of mesenchymal stem cells.
 細胞医療の分野において、細胞を利用して人体の各組織の治療を行うことが注目を浴びている。特に幹細胞は、自己複製能と多分化能を有しており、再生医療における細胞や組織の材料として想定されている。 In the field of cell medicine, it is attracting attention to treat each tissue of the human body using cells. In particular, stem cells have self-replicating ability and pluripotency, and are assumed as materials for cells and tissues in regenerative medicine.
 これらの幹細胞は、多能性幹細胞と組織幹細胞の2つに大きく分けられ、生体の様々な組織に存在する。例えば、組織幹細胞のうち間葉系幹細胞は、骨髄液、脂肪組織、胎盤組織、臍帯組織、又は歯髄等に含まれていることが知られており、造血幹細胞は主に骨髄液に含まれ、末梢血、臍帯血にも存在することが知られている。 These stem cells are roughly divided into two types, pluripotent stem cells and tissue stem cells, and are present in various tissues of the living body. For example, mesenchymal stem cells among tissue stem cells are known to be contained in bone marrow fluid, adipose tissue, placental tissue, umbilical cord tissue, dental pulp, etc., hematopoietic stem cells are mainly contained in bone marrow fluid, It is also known to exist in peripheral blood and umbilical cord blood.
 細胞医療の分野では治療に用いる細胞を患者に投与する場合、生体から採取した後、細胞の培養を行わずに患者に投与する方法もあれば、一度生体外で培養した後に再び患者に投与する方法もある。 In the field of cell medicine, when cells to be used for treatment are administered to a patient, there is a method in which the cells are collected from a living body and then administered to the patient without culturing the cells. There is also a method.
 前者の方法を用いて、本発明者らは、これまでに、骨髄液から分離した間葉系幹細胞が肝疾患の患者の治療に有効であることを明らかにしている。具体的には、肝疾患の患者から骨髄液を採取し、そこから間葉系幹細胞を含む成分を分離、濃縮して肝再生用骨髄細胞含有製剤を得た後に、当該製剤を再度その患者に点滴投与することにより、肝疾患を改善させ、肝機能を回復させることができた(特許文献1)。 Using the former method, the present inventors have previously clarified that mesenchymal stem cells isolated from bone marrow fluid are effective in treating patients with liver diseases. Specifically, after collecting bone marrow fluid from a patient with liver disease, separating and concentrating components containing mesenchymal stem cells from it to obtain a bone marrow cell-containing preparation for liver regeneration, the preparation is given to the patient again. Intravenous administration improved liver disease and restored liver function (Patent Document 1).
 一方、各種組織に含まれる幹細胞の量は極めて少なく、例えば間葉系幹細胞は、骨髄液中における存在率が0.05%程度であり、直接臨床に使用するには骨髄液を大量に採取する必要があり、生体への負担が大きくなってしまう。そのため、生体組織から採取した幹細胞は継代培養して用いることが望ましいとされている。 On the other hand, the amount of stem cells contained in various tissues is extremely small. For example, mesenchymal stem cells have a prevalence of about 0.05% in bone marrow fluid, and a large amount of bone marrow fluid is collected for direct clinical use. This is necessary and the burden on the living body is increased. For this reason, it is desirable to use subcultured stem cells collected from living tissue.
 なお、間葉系幹細胞の培養について、採取した骨髄液の初代培養、継代培養を行い、目的とする量まで間葉系幹細胞を増殖させることは、従来既に公知である(特許文献2)。 In addition, regarding the mesenchymal stem cell culture, it is already known in the art to perform primary culture and subculture of the collected bone marrow fluid to proliferate the mesenchymal stem cells to a target amount (Patent Document 2).

 そこで本発明者らは、肝疾患の患者から骨髄液を採取し、培養することによって、目的とする量にまで間葉系幹細胞を増殖することを試みた。本発明者らは当初、採取した骨髄液から間葉系幹細胞を分離した後に、市販の培地を用いて培養を行っていたが、間葉系幹細胞を分離せずに骨髄液中の全骨髄細胞をそのまま培養したところ、驚くべきことに、増殖させたい間葉系幹細胞のみを分離、培養した場合と比較して、より短時間に多くの細胞を培養できることを知見した。 Therefore, the present inventors tried to proliferate mesenchymal stem cells to a target amount by collecting bone marrow fluid from a patient with liver disease and culturing it. The present inventors originally separated mesenchymal stem cells from the collected bone marrow fluid and then cultured them using a commercially available medium. However, the whole bone marrow cells in the bone marrow fluid were not separated without separating the mesenchymal stem cells. As a result, it was surprisingly found that more cells can be cultured in a shorter time than when only mesenchymal stem cells to be proliferated are isolated and cultured.
 本発明者らは、さらに鋭意研究を進めたところ、全骨髄細胞を培養した培養液に含まれる種々のタンパク質のうち、特定のサイトカインが、細胞の増殖に有効であることを見出した。すなわち、特定のサイトカインを含有する培地を用いることにより、少量の細胞であってもより短時間にかつ多くの細胞を増殖させることが可能となることを見出し、本発明を完成させた。 As a result of further diligent research, the present inventors have found that, among various proteins contained in the culture medium in which whole bone marrow cells are cultured, a specific cytokine is effective for cell proliferation. That is, it has been found that by using a medium containing a specific cytokine, it is possible to grow a large number of cells in a shorter time even with a small amount of cells, and the present invention has been completed.

In particular, in the case of cell therapy or the like in which cells collected from the body of a patient are cultured and the cultured cells are returned to the patient's body, the amount of cells collected from the patient can be reduced. Therefore, treatment can be performed while reducing the burden on the patient.

Thereafter, the supernatant is extracted and centrifuged to separate the target liquid containing mesenchymal stem cells. These operations are performed in an isolator or a safety cabinet maintained in a sterile environment. Furthermore, it is possible to use a method in which the target solution is seeded in a flask or the like containing a medium, and only the adhered cells are subcultured and cultured.

 実施例3のサイトカイン添加培地3を用いて、ヒト骨髄間葉系幹細胞(P3:第3継代細胞、Lonza社製、PT-2501)を5%CO、37℃でコンフルエントになるまで培養した。その後培地を、下記表6処方の脂肪細胞の分化誘導培地に交換し、継続して細胞の培養を行った。培養開始から13日後に培養された細胞をOil Red O染色し、ヒト骨髄間葉系幹細胞の脂肪細胞への分化能を評価した。Oil Red O染色の結果を図5に示す。
[Test Example 4] Confirmation of differentiation potential Using the cytokine-added medium 3 of Example 3, human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (P3: 3rd passage cell, manufactured by Lonza, PT-2501) were added with 5% CO 2 , The cells were cultured at 37 ° C. until confluent. Thereafter, the medium was replaced with an adipocyte differentiation induction medium prescribed in Table 6 below, and the cells were continuously cultured. Cells cultured 13 days after the start of culture were stained with Oil Red O, and the ability of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells to differentiate into adipocytes was evaluated. The results of Oil Red O staining are shown in FIG.

 図5に示すように、培地中に脂肪細胞が観察されたことにより、ヒト骨髄間葉系幹細胞の脂肪細胞への分化能が確認できた。すなわち、MIGとI-309を添加したサイトカイン添加培地3を用いて、ヒト骨髄間葉系幹細胞を培養することによって、分化能を有するヒト骨髄間葉系幹細胞を増殖培養することができることが確認できた。 As shown in FIG. 5, the ability of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells to differentiate into adipocytes was confirmed by the observation of adipocytes in the medium. That is, it can be confirmed that human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells having differentiation potential can be proliferated and cultured by culturing human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells using cytokine-added medium 3 supplemented with MIG and I-309. It was.
