Method Of Increasing Product Expression Through Solute Stress

View page
US Patent:
6905847, Jun 14, 2005
Filed:
May 30, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/867948
Inventors:
Brian Maiorella - Oakland CA, US
Duane Inlow - Oakland CA, US
William Howarth - Richmond CA, US
Assignee:
Chiron Corporation - Emeryville CA
International Classification:
C12P021/08
C12N005/16
US Classification:
435 7021, 435 691, 435 701, 4352401, 43524021, 4351721, 4353201, 435325, 4353871, 435440, 530350, 5303871, 536 231
Abstract:
A method of determining the optimal level of product expression and cell growth of animal cell culture is described. The method generally comprises culturing cells under conditions of solute stress, that is, under conditions whereby optimal cell growth or growth rate is decreased yet levels of product expression are increased. In a preferred embodiment of the invention is described a method of increasing the yield of monoclonal antibodies comprising culturing hybridoma cells in an environment of solute stress. One approach to the creation of such an environment is the addition of inorganic salts, organic polyols, or metabolic products to the culture medium. One-to three-fold increases in antibody yield have been obtained by these methods.

Method Of Purifying Tfpi And Tfpi Analogs

View page
US Patent:
7851433, Dec 14, 2010
Filed:
Jan 8, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/753078
Inventors:
David H. Reifsnyder - El Cerrito CA, US
Duane Inlow - Alamo CA, US
Glenn Dorin - San Rafael CA, US
Patricio T. Riquelme - Walnut Creek CA, US
Cynthia A. Cowgill - Berkeley CA, US
Douglas G. Bolesch - Berkeley CA, US
Mark E. Gustafson - St. Charles MO, US
Assignee:
Novartis Vaccines and Diagnostics, Inc. - Emeryville CA
Pharmacia & Upjohn Company - Kalamazoo MI
International Classification:
C07K 14/00
US Classification:
514 2, 530350
Abstract:
Highly purified preparations of TFPI or TFPI analogs can be prepared using a method that generally involves the following steps: (1) expression of TFPI or TFPI analog in , (2) isolation of refractile bodies, (3) dissolution of the refractile bodies and refolding of the expressed TFPI or TFPI analog, (4) SP-Sepharose fast flow (FF) chromatography, (5) a first concentration and diafiltration step, (6) Q-Sepharose high (HP) performance chromatography, (7) butyl hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC), (8) SP-Sepharose HP chromatography, and (9) a second concentration/diafiltration step. Less than about 12% of the TFPI or TFPI analog molecules in such preparations are modified TFPI or TFPI analog species (i. e. , oxidized, carbamylated, acetylated, deamidated, aggregated, or misfolded species).

Serum Free Media For The Growth On Insect Cells And Expression Of Products Thereby

View page
US Patent:
50249479, Jun 18, 1991
Filed:
Jul 24, 1987
Appl. No.:
7/077303
Inventors:
Duane Inlow - Oakland CA
Brian Maiorella - Oakland CA
Assignee:
Cetus Corporation - Emeryville CA
International Classification:
C12N 500
US Classification:
43524031
Abstract:
Serum-free media which support the growth of insect cells and the production thereby of recombinant proteins and viral products are herein disclosed. The serum free media can support insect cell growth at large scale under agitated and/or sparged, preferably well-aerated conditions. The serum free medium disclosed support insect cell growth to cell densities comparable to serum-containing culture and the production of viral and recombinant products to levels equivalent to those found in serum containing culture.

Methods For Adapting Cells For Increased Product Production Through Exposure To Ammonia

View page
US Patent:
51569647, Oct 20, 1992
Filed:
Jan 21, 1992
Appl. No.:
7/824694
Inventors:
Duane Inlow - Oakland CA
Brian Maiorella - Oakland CA
Andrea E. Shauger - Albany CA
Assignee:
Cetus Corporation - Emeryville CA
International Classification:
C12N 1500
C12N 500
C12N 502
C07K 300
US Classification:
4351721
Abstract:
This invention is in the field of cell and/or tissue culture. In particular, this invention relates to methods which adapt cells to a desired phenotype by exposing the cells to high levels of ammonia in culture, and subsequently transferring the adapted cells to a new culture medium in which there is no initial level of ammonia or the initial level of ammonia is below the level to which cells have been exposed to during the adaptation process. In this new culture medium, the adapted cells express the desired phenotype of growing to a higher viable cell density, and/or remaining viable for a longer period of time, and/or producing more of a desired cell product than their non-adapted counterparts grown in the same medium. This invention includes the adapted cells produced thereby and their cell products.
