Definitions
- This invention relates to the general field of biochemistry and medical sciences, and specifically to novel lyophilized and reconstituted cell compositions comprising non-mammalian nucleated cells.
- Anaolasma mar ⁇ inale is a pathogen of considerable significance to the cattle industry.
- Anaplasmosis is often endemic in the tropics and subtropics, notably in the Americas and Africa, but also is prevalent in Australia, the South Pacific Islands, and southern Asia. In the USA it has been reported from all the contiguous states, but is most prevalent in the southeast, the inter ountain west, and California.
- the rickettsiae are small, spherical bodies without cytoplasm and are located in the stroma or cytoplasm of the RBC.
- Anaplasma strip which is more centrally located in the RBC, is a relatively nonpathogenic variant found in cattle in some regions; another variant known as A. ovis occurs in sheep and goats and may cause disease in stressful situations. Anaplasma spp infections also occur in a variety of wild ungulates such as deer and antelope, and these can act as reservoirs of infection for cattle.
- nucleated non-mammalian cells such as Anaplasma or Toxoplasma cells
- the present invention provides a method for freeze- drying nucleated non-mammalian cells in the presence of red blood cells and platelets, in a manner which permits the reconstitution of the nucleated cells, as well as the red blood cells, platelets and white blood cells, with an intact cytoskeleton and with biologically-active hemoglobin, i.e. , useful red blood cells.
- Useful RBC's can be characterized by one or more of the following: capability of synthesizing ATP; cell morphology; P 50 values; oxyhemoglobin, methemoglobin and hemichrome values; MCV, MCH, and MCHC values; cell enzyme activity; and in vivo survival.
- RBC's have been lyophilized according to previous methods, for example in either an aqueous or phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) solution, the reconstituted cells are damaged to the extent that the cells are not capable of metabolizing or synthesizing ATP, and the cell hemoglobin cannot transport oxygen. Damaged red blood cells cannot support obligate parasites such as Anaplasma. hence it is important to preserve viable, intact red blood cells when using infected cells as a vaccine.
- PBS phosphate-buffered saline
- compositions provided by the present invention allow for storage of nucleated non-mammalian cells, particularly red blood cell parasites under normal conditions, while maintaining the structure and activity (viability) of the nucleated parasite cells and the host red blood cells.
- the compositions are made by immersing a plurality of the nucleated non-mammalian cells and red blood cells (and platelets and white blood cells) in a physiologically buffered aqueous solution containing a carbohydrate, and a biologically compatible polymer, or mixture of polymers, preferably having amphipathic properties.
- amphipathic it is meant there are hydrophobic and hydrophilic portions on a single molecule.
- This immersion is followed by freezing the solution, and drying the frozen solution to yield novel freeze-dried cells containing less than 10%, and preferably about 3% or less by weight of moisture, which, when reconstituted, produce a significant percentage of viable, useful red blood cells and active nucleated cells. Methods of reconstitution of the cells are also provided.
- the carbohydrate utilized in the method according to the invention is biologically compatible with the cells, that is, non-disruptive to the cell membranes, and one which permeates, or is capable of permeating, the membrane of the cells.
- the carbohydrate may be selected from the group consisting of monosaccharides, since disaccharides do not appear to permeate the membrane to any significant extent.
- Monosaccharide pentoses and hexoses are preferred as is _a final concentration of from about 7.0 to 37.5 weight % in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) , preferably about 26%.
- PBS phosphate buffered saline
- Xylose, glucose, ribose, mannose and fructose are employed to particular advantage.
- the invention will be hereafter described in connection with parasitic Anaplasma cells, as the nucleated non-mammalian cells, and red blood cells (host cells) , but it will be understood it is also applicable to other types of nucleated cells, such as Toxoplasma.
- the lyophilization and reconstitution procedures according to the present invention maintain viable nucleated cells (the parasite) as well as viable host red blood cells which are critical for a viable parasite.
- the reconstituted parasite cells can then be used for preparation of vaccines after extended storage in a dry state.
- the reconstituted red blood cell and parasite mixture may also be injected directly as a vaccine formulation.

- the use of the carbohydrate-polymer solution in the lyophilization allows for the recovery of intact red blood cells, a significant percentage of which has normal morphologies, and exhibit viable cell metabolism as measured by synthesis of ATP.
- amphipathic properties of the polymer allow them to bind to the cell membrane while protecting the membrane surface by extension of the hydrophilic portion into the aqueous environment. This may alleviate the damage to the cell membrane which causes other problems, such as cell aggregation.
- lyophilization is broadly defined as freezing a substance and then reducing the concentration of the solvent, namely water, by sublimation and desorption, to levels which will no longer support biological or chemical reactions.
- the drying step is accomplished in a high vacuum.
- the extent of drying (the amount of residual moisture) is of critical importance in the ability of cells to withstand long-term storage at room temperature.
- cells may be lyophilized to a residual water content of less than 10 weight %, preferably less than 3%, and still be reconstituted to useful cells.
- the lyophilization solution will be buffered in the range of pH of 7.0 to 7.4 preferably by a phosphate- buffered saline solution.
- a typical phosphate- buffered saline solution will comprise mono- and di ⁇ basic sodium phosphate (usually around 10 mM) , sodium chloride (usually about 150 mM) . This solution maintains the pH at around 7.2.
- a preferred phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) solution to be used as the lyophilization buffer will comprise pyruvate, inosine, adenine, potassium chloride, sodium chloride, and dipotassium phosphate, all of which will serve as a basic salt buffer at a pH of about 7.2.
- this lyophilization buffer will contain a final concentration of about 30% weight by volume of a monosaccharide, preferably 1.7 M glucose, and a final concentration of about 16% weight by volume of a polymer, preferably polyvinylpyrrolidone (average molecular weight of 24K) .
- a mixture of polymers, preferably amphipathic polymers, may be used instead of a single polymer.
- the mixture of polymers may be present in the buffered lyophilization solution in total concentrations of from 0.7% (by weight) up to saturation.
- each of the polymer types in the mixture has a molecular weight in the range of from about IK to about 600K (number average molecular weight) .
- at least one of the types of polymers of the mixture will have a molecular weight from about IK to 400K, and most preferably from 2.5K to 36OK.
- Each of the polymer types may be present in a concentration of from about 3% (by weight) up to its limit of solubility in the buffered lyophilization solution.
- one of the types of polymers of the mixture will have a molecular weight in the range of about 10OK to about 60OK, most preferably in the range of about 100-500K.
- Polymers selected from the group consisting of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) , polyvinylpyrrolidone derivatives, dextran, dextran derivatives, amino acid based polymers (i.e., proteins) and hydroxyethyl starch (HES) may be employed.
- Other amphipathic polymers may be used, such as poloxamers in any of their various forms.
- 3% PVP molecular weight of about 360K
- HES molecular weight in the range of about 100K-500K
- the host red blood cells and the parasitic nucleated cells will preferably be prepared from whole blood centrifugation of blood containing the red blood cells infected with the parasite, mutation of the parasite, or attenuated parasite strain, with the lyophilization buffer described above so that the final diluted concentration of carbohydrate and polymer are maintained in the necessary ranges.
- packed red blood cell concentrates containing the parasite, parasite mutant or attenuated parasite strain may be used, prepared in CPDA (commercial solution containing citrate, phosphate, dextrose and adenine) .
- the lyophilized cells may be maintained under vacuum in vacuum-tight containers, or under nitrogen or other inert gas, at room temperatures for extended periods of time in absence of or without significant degradation of their desirable properties when reconstituted for use. It is a particular advantage of the present invention that the lyophilized cells may be stored at room temperature or refrigerated for extended periods of time.
- the lyophilized cells may be reconstituted at normal temperatures, i.e. greater than about 17 ⁇ C up to about 37 ⁇ C, which corresponds to normal human body temperature, and preferably at room temperature (about 22 ⁇ C) .
- the reconstitution medium is preferably a solution comprising a polymer or mixture of polymers having a molecular weight of from about IK to 360 K, preferably 5K to about 360K, present in a concentration in the range of about 10 to 30% weight by volume. This polymer may be the same polymer utilized to lyophilize the red blood cells as described above.
- polymers polyvinylpyrrolidone, hydroxyethyl starch, and dextran are particularly preferred and most preferred is polyvinylpyrrolidone present in a concentration of about 19% weight by volume in the reconstitution solution.
- the reconstitution solution will be buffered again typically by phosphate-buffered saline as described hereinabove to maintain a pH within the range of about 7.0 to 7.4.
- the most particularly preferred polymer is polyvinylpyrrolidone of an average molecular weight of about 10K.
- the most preferred reconstitution buffer will be a solution comprising potassium chloride, sodium chloride and sodium phosphate and potassium dihydrogen phosphate, all of which form a basic salt buffer at a pH of about 7.2, which also contains about 19% weight by volume of polyvinylpyrrolidone (average molecular weight about 10K) .
- the reconstitution solution may also optionally contain a monosaccharide, preferably present in the concentration range of about 7.0 to 37.5% weight to volume.
- the preferred monosaccharides are xylose, glucose, ribose, mannose and fructose.
- the lyophilized cells can be reconstituted by mixing with an equal volume of the reconstitution buffer at a temperature of about 37 ⁇ C and mixed until fully hydrated.
- the solution is preferably diluted 1:1 with dextrose-saline solution, at pH 7 and 290 mOsm.
- the rehydrated cells be washed according to the following procedure. It is realized, however, that once the cells are reconstituted with reconstitution buffer they are in a useful form, but the combination of washings described hereinafter are preferred, specifically to optimize retention of intact cells.
- the resulting packed cells are preferably resuspended in (approximately the volume used in the reconstitution) a buffer comprising the basic salt buffer at pH 7.2, described above, further containing about 10% weight by volume polyvinylpyrrolidone (molecular weight about 2.5K) . Separation by centrifugation completes the first post-rehydration step, a washing step.
- the cells can be used as is or stored refigerated prior to injection.
- the lyophilized nucleated cells and their host cells are advantageously storable at ambient atmospheric temperatures (i.e., room temperatures 20-30 ⁇ C) and can be reconstituted to viable states. This allows for the preparation and storage of viable parasite cells or attenuated viable parasite cells which are useful to prepare vaccines to the parasite. Although vaccines comprising non-viable parasite cells or particles may also be useful, it is preferred that viable parasites be recovered since viable attenuated parasites in some instances are the preferred vaccine.
- Samples were reconstituted by mixing a volume equal to the original volume of the following reconstitution buffer with the dried material at 37°c.
