Description

뇌척수액을 포함하는 줄기세포 투여 제형 및 그의 제조방법Stem cell dosage formulations containing cerebrospinal fluid and method for producing the same
줄기세포 투여 제형 및 그의 제조방법에 관한 것이다.A stem cell dosage form and a method for producing the same.
줄기세포(stem cell)란 자기 복제 능력을 가지면서 두 개 이상의 세포로 분화하는 능력을 갖는 세포로, 만능줄기세포(totipotent stem cell), 전분화능 줄기세포(pluripotent stem cells), 다분화능 줄기세포(multipotent stem cells)로 분류할 수 있다.Stem cells are cells capable of self-replication and capable of differentiating into two or more cells. They are totipotent stem cells, pluripotent stem cells, multipotential stem cells multipotent stem cells).
만능 줄기세포(totipotent stem cell)는 하나의 완전한 개체로 발생해 나갈 수 있는 만능의 성질을 가진 세포로 난자와 정자의 수정 이후 8세포기까지의 세포가 이러한 성질을 가지며, 이 세포를 분리하여 자궁에 이식하면 하나의 완전한 개체로 발생해 나갈 수 있다. 전분화능 줄기세포(pluripotent stem cells)는 외배엽, 중배엽, 내배엽층 유래의 다양한 세포와 조직으로 발생할 수 있는 세포로, 수정 4-5일 후 나타나는 배반포(blastocyst)의 안쪽에 위치한 내세포괴(inner cell mass)에서 유래하며 이를 배아 줄기세포라 하며 다양한 다른 조직세포로 분화되지만 새로운 생명체를 형성하지는 못한다. 다능성 줄기세포(multipotent stem cells)는 이 세포가 포함되어 있는 조직 및 기관에 특이적인 세포로만 분화할 수 있는 줄기세포이다.A totipotent stem cell is an all-purpose cell that can develop into a complete individual. Cells from oocyte to spermatozoa until 8th gestation have these properties. Can be generated as a complete entity. Pluripotent stem cells are cells that can be formed in various cells and tissues derived from ectoderm, mesoderm, and endodermal layer. The inner cell mass located inside the blastocyst after 4-5 days of fertilization ), Which is called an embryonic stem cell and differentiates into a variety of different tissue cells but does not form new life forms. Multipotent stem cells are stem cells that can only differentiate into cells specific to the tissues and organs containing the cells.
대량으로 획득이 가능해진 줄기세포는 주로 난치병 등의 치료를 포함한 의학 분야 및 미용, 성형 등의 목적으로 줄기세포 자체를 주사하는 세포치료제로서의 이용이 늘어나고 있는 추세이다.The stem cells, which have been able to be obtained in large quantities, are increasingly used as a cell therapy agent for injecting stem cells themselves for medical purposes, including treatment of incurable diseases, and beauty and molding.
줄기세포를 보존하는 종래 기술로는, 인간 지방조직 유래 중간엽 줄기세포를 냉장조건에서 생리식염수에 부유하여 보관하는 기술이 있으나, 이 경우 48시간 이상 보관 시 70% 이상의 생존율을 나타내기 어렵다. 또한, 기존 줄기세포 치료제의 경우에는, 환자에 투여되기 위해 배양액 등이 사용되었다. 그러나, 이는 구성 성분, 첨가물의 비율 및 세포에 미치는 영향 등을 정확하게 분석하기 어려워 안전성의 검증에 있어 문제가 제기될 수 있다. As a conventional technique for preserving stem cells, there is a technique of suspending human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells in physiological saline under refrigeration conditions. However, in this case, it is difficult to achieve survival rate of 70% or more when stored for 48 hours or more. In addition, in the case of a conventional stem cell treatment agent, a culture solution or the like was used for administration to a patient. However, it is difficult to precisely analyze the constituents, the proportion of the additives, and the effect on the cells, thus posing a problem in verification of safety.
이에, 본 발명자들은 줄기세포의 투여 제형을 개발하기 위해 노력한 결과, 환자 유래 체액의 경우, 체내 구성 성분과 동일하며, 특히 환자 본인의 체액은 면역적인 측면에서 안전할 뿐만 아니라, 줄기세포성을 유지하면서 환자 맞춤형으로 줄기세포의 유전자 또는 단백질 발현이 변화하거나 유전자 또는 단백질의 발현이 더 활성화되는 것을 확인함으로써 본 발명을 완성하였다. As a result of efforts to develop a dosage form of stem cells, the present inventors have found that the patient-derived body fluid is the same as the constituent components in the body, and in particular, the body fluid of the patient is not only safe from immunity, The present inventors completed the present invention by confirming that gene or protein expression of a stem cell is changed or expression of a gene or protein is further activated in a patient-customized manner.

As used herein, the term " cerebrospinal fluid " may refer to body fluids present in the brain or spinal cord. Specifically, it may be a liquid that circulates in the brain and spinal cord along the ventricle and sub arachnoid space produced in the brain. It is produced in the cerebral cortex and is decomposed and absorbed by the spider membrane granules in the subterranean space, so that a constant amount is always maintained. Cerebrospinal fluid circulates around the brain and spinal cord and acts as a buffer for external shocks and acts as a transport medium for hormones and waste products. In one embodiment, the cerebrospinal fluid may be a patient-derived cerebrospinal fluid. Specifically, it may be a cerebrospinal fluid derived from an individual to which a stem cell is to be administered.
본 명세서에서, 줄기세포는 뇌척수액에 부유된 상태로 존재할 수 있다. 본 명세서에서 "부유된" 또는 "부유하다"는 세포(예를 들면, 줄기세포)가 배양을 위해 용기에 부착되지 않고, 환자에의 최종 투여를 위해 용기에 보관된 상태를 의미할 수 있다. 더욱 상세하게는, 3차원 배양을 위해 배양 용기에서 부유된 상태로 존재하는 줄기세포가 아닌 것일 수 있다. 따라서, 상기 줄기세포는 GMP 공정 내에서 QC가 완료된 세포일 수 있다. 즉, 줄기세포는 GMP 시설 내에서 배양 배지에서 배양된 후, QC(Quality control) 과정을 거쳐, 환자에 투여되기 위한 제형으로 제조된다. 이 때, 기존의 기술은, 환자에 투여되기 위한 최종 줄기세포는 배양 배지와 동일한 배지에서 보관된다.

In one embodiment, the formulation may be patient-tailored. The final stem cells to be administered to the patient are stored in cerebrospinal fluid (e. G., Patient-derived). By doing so, the stem cell dosage form can change the expression of some genes or proteins in a patient-tailored manner, while retaining stem cell properties and not changing activity. Examples of some of the above-mentioned patient-customized genes may include TNFα and the like. In the case of the TNFa gene, expression may be decreased as compared with the case where it is stored in an existing culture medium (for example, MEM? Medium). Accordingly, the stem cells in the formulation according to one embodiment are kept in the cerebrospinal fluid, so that the expression of genes or proteins of the stem cells can be changed in a patient-customized manner or can be further activated (for example, , Cell adhesion, neovascularization, activation of genes or proteins associated with neuronal regeneration).

The separated umbilical cord was washed 2 to 5 times with PBS to remove blood. Thereafter, the umbilical cord was cut to a size of about 1.5 cm. In order to separate the cells from the whiten jelly, each piece was forcepsed to remove blood in the blood vessel. Each piece was cut with sterile scissors, and cord blood was removed. The gelatin pieces surrounding the blood were cut to a size of 1 to 3 mm, and then collagenase I was added thereto and reacted in a shaking incubator. The disrupted tissues were filtered using a strainer and washed with 10% FBS (Biowest, Nuaille ', France), 0.5% gentamicin (10 mg / ml) (Gibco, NY, USA) modified Minimum Essential Media (Gibco, NY, USA). The culture conditions were maintained at 37 ° C and 5% CO 2 . Subsequently, the culture medium was changed every 3 to 4 days to remove unattached cells from the bottom of the flask. For the first subculture, trypLE, an animal component free (ACF) recombinant enzyme, and cells attached to the bottom of the flask were reacted in a 37 ° C incubator for about 3 minutes to recover mesenchymal stem cells.
