A proprietary GMP human platelet lysate for the expansion of dermal fibroblasts for clinical applications

ABSTRACT: Recent years have witnessed the introduction of ex vivo expanded dermal fibroblasts for several cell therapy and tissue-engineering applications, including the treatment of facial scars and burns, representing a promising cell type for regenerative medicine. We tested different in-house produced human platelet lysate (HPL) solutions against fetal bovine serum as supplements for in vitro fibroblast expansion by comparing cell yield, molecular marker expression, extracellular matrix (ECM) generation, genomic stability and global gene expression. Our in-house produced HPL supported fibroblast growth at levels similar to those for FBS and commercial HPL products and was superior to AB human serum. Cells grown in HPL maintained a fibroblast phenotype (VIM+, CD44+, CD13+, CD90+), ECM generation capacity (FN+, COL1+) and a normal karyotype, although gene expression profiling revealed changes related to cell metabolism, adhesion and cellular senescence. The HPL manufacturing process was validated within a GMP compliant system and the solution was stable at -80ºC and -20ºC for 2 years. Dermal fibroblasts expanded in vitro with HPL maintain a normal karyotype and expression of fibroblast markers, with only minor changes in their global gene expression profile. Our in-house produced GMP-HPL is an efficient, safe and economical cell culture supplement that can help increase the healthcare activity of blood transfusion centers through the re-use of transfusional plasma and platelets approaching their expiration date. Currently, our HPL solution is approved by the Spanish Agency of Medicines and Medical Devices and is being used in the manufacture of cell therapy products.

Project description:Patient-derived cells hold great promise for precision medicine approaches in human health. Fibroblast cells have been a major source of human cells for reprogramming and differentiating into specific cell types for disease modeling. Such cells can be isolated at various stages during life (presymptomatic, symptomatic, and advanced disease) and thus can potentially be used to model different phases of disease progression. In certain circumstances, however, tissues are not collected during life and only postmortem tissues are the only available source of fibroblasts. Fibroblasts cultured from postmortem human dura mater of individuals with neurodegenerative diseases have been suggested as a primary source of cells for in vitro modeling of neurodegenerative diseases. Although fibroblast-like cells from human and mouse dura mater have been previously described, their utility for reprogramming and direct differentiation protocols requires further characterization. In this study, cells derived from dermal biopsies of living subjects were compared to cells derived from postmortem dura mater. In two instances, we have isolated and compared dermal and dural cell lines from the same subject. Notably, such striking differences were observed between cells of dermal and dural origin that their fibroblast nature was brought into question. Compared to dermal fibroblasts, postmortem dura mater-derived cells demonstrated different morphology, slower growth rates, and a higher rate of karyotype abnormality. Dura mater-derived cells also failed to express fibroblast protein markers. When dermal fibroblasts and dural-derived cells from the same subject were compared, they exhibited significant differences in gene expression profiles. Ultimately, dura mater-derived cells were found to originate from a mixed mural lineage consisting of smooth muscle cells and pericytes. Our study argues for rigorous karyotyping of all postmortem derived cell lines and highlights significant limitations of postmortem human dura mater-derived cells for modeling normal biology or disease-associated pathobiology.
