Recombinant collagenase from Grimontia hollisae as a tissue dissociation enzyme for isolating primary cells.

ABSTRACT: Collagenase products are crucial to isolate primary cells in basic research and clinical therapies, where their stability in collagenolytic activity is required. However, currently standard collagenase products from Clostridium histolyticum lack such stability. Previously, we produced a recombinant 74-kDa collagenase from Grimontia hollisae, which spontaneously became truncated to ~60?kDa and possessed no stability. In this study, to generate G. hollisae collagenase useful as a collagenase product, we designed recombinant 62-kDa collagenase consisting only of the catalytic domain, which exhibits high production efficiency. We demonstrated that this recombinant collagenase is stable and active under physiological conditions. Moreover, it possesses higher specific activity against collagen and cleaves a wider variety of collagens than a standard collagenase product from C. histolyticum. Furthermore, it dissociated murine pancreata by digesting the collagens within the pancreata in a dose-dependent manner, and this dissociation facilitated isolation of pancreatic islets with masses and numbers comparable to those isolated using the standard collagenase from C. histolyticum. Implantation of these isolated islets into five diabetic mice led to normalisation of the blood glucose concentrations of all the recipients. These findings suggest that recombinant 62-kDa collagenase from G. hollisae can be used as a collagenase product to isolate primary cells.

Project description:BackgroundAdipose tissue (AT) is one of the most important mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) sources because of its high quantities, availability and ease of collection. After being collected samples, they should be transported to a laboratory for stem cell (SC) isolation, culture and expansion for future clinical application. Usually, laboratories are distant from animal husbandry centers; therefore, it is necessary to provide suitable conditions for adipose tissue transportation, such that adipose-derived MSCs are minimally affected. In the current study, the impact of tissue maintenance under different conditions on MSCs derived from these tissues was evaluated. We aimed at finding suitable and practical transportation methods in which ASCs go through the slightest changes.ResultsIn the current study, after being collected, equine AT was randomized into eight groups: four samples were maintained in stem cell culture media at 25 οC and 4 οC for 6 and 12 hrs. as transportation via SC media groups. Three samples were frozen at three different temperatures (- 20, - 75 and - 196 οC) as cryopreserved groups; these samples were defrosted 1 week after cryopreservation. Fresh and unfrozen AT was evaluated as a control group. The tissue samples were then initiated into enzymatic digestion, isolation and the culturing of SCs. Cells at passage three were used to evaluate the ability to form colonies, proliferation rate, plotting of the cell growth curve, and viability rate. All experiments were performed in triplicate. Stem cell isolation was successful in all groups, although purification of SCs from the first series of cryopreservation at - 196 οC and two series of - 20 οC was unsuccessful. There was no significant difference between the surface area of colonies in all groups except for - 20 οC. The growth rate of transportation via stem cell media at 25 οC for 6 hrs. was similar to that of the control group. MTT analysis revealed a significant difference between 25 οC 12 hrs. Group and other experimental groups except for control, 4 οC 12 hrs. and - 196 οC group.ConclusionData have shown freezing at - 75 οC, transportation via stem cell media at 4 οC for 12 hrs. and 25 οC for 6 hrs. are acceptable tissue preservation and transportation methods due to minor effects on MSCs features.
