Popis: | Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells are widely used for the large-scale production of recombinant biopharmaceuticals. However, attempts to express IGF-1 (a mutated human Insulin-like growth factor 1 Ea peptide (hIGF-1Ea mut)) in CHO cells resulted in poor cell growth and low productivity (0.1-0.2 g/L). Human IGF-1 variants negatively impacted CHO cell growth via the IGF-1 receptor (IGF-1R). Therefore knockout (KO) of the IGF-1R gene in two different CHO cell lines as well as knockdown (KD) of IGF-1R in one CHO cell line were performed. These cell line engineering approaches decreased significantly the hIGF-1 mediated cell growth inhibition and increased productivity of both KO CHO cell lines as well as of the KD CHO cell line. A productivity increase of 10-fold at pool level and sevenfold at clone level was achieved, resulting in a titer of 1.3 g/L. This data illustrate that cell line engineering approaches are powerful tools to improve the yields of recombinant proteins which are difficult to produce in CHO cells. |
