Development and Analysis of a Mathematical Model for Antibody-Producing GS-NSO Cells Under Normal and Hyperosmotic Culture Conditions

摘要

The GS-NSO cell line is industrially important and is currently used for the large-scale production of several therapeutic monoclonal antibodies.A novel hybrid model,consisting of both unstructured and structured elements,has been developed to describe cell growth and death,metabolism,and antibody production in the GS-NSO system under normal culture conditions.A comparison between the hybrid model and a large-scale single-cell model (SCM) describing detailed metabolic processes verified the predictive ability of the hybrid model (when compared with experimental data) and highlighted the practical difficulties involved in utilizing complex models.Global sensitivity analysis (GSA) on the hybrid model identified the specific transcription and translation rates of heavy and light immunoglobulin chains as parameters with the largest impact on the antibody production process.This information,together with the addition of a 24-h lag phase,resulted in the successful extension of the hybrid model to represent GS-NSO system behavior under hyperosmotic culture conditions.
