Plant cell culture is emerging to express bioactive foreign proteins because it has several advantages in that it is safe, economical, genetically stable and eukaryotic expression system comparing with other expression systems. However several limitations such as slow growth rate, low expression level and lack of well established down stream process need to be answered. As a preliminary approach to produce the immunologically interested molecules through the plant cell culture, we tested if granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factors (GM-CSFs) from both murine (mGM-CSF) and human (hGM-CSF) are produced as a biologically active form through plant cell culture. The murine and human GM-CSF genes were cloned into the plant expression vector, pBI121, and Ti-plasmid mediated transformation of tobacco leaves was conducted using Agrobacterium tumefaciens harboring both recombinant GM-CSF (rGM-CSF) genes. Cell suspension culture was established from the leaf-derived calli of transgenic tobacco plant. Northern blot analysis indicated the expression of the introduced mGM-CSF gene in both transgenic plant and cell suspension cultures. In addition, the biological activities of both murine and human GM-CSF from plant cell culture were confirmed by measuring the proliferation of the GM-CSF dependent FDC-PI and TF-1 cells, respectively.

The human granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (hGM-CSF) gene was introduced into tobacco plants. The cell suspension culture was established from leaf-derived calli of the transgenic tobacco plants in order to express and secrete a biologically active hGM -CSF. The recombinant hGM-CSF from the transgenic plant cell culture (prhGM-CSF) was identified as a yield of about 180 ${\mu}$g/L in the culture filtrate, as determined by ELISA. The addition of 0.5 g/L polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) to the plant cell culture medium both stabilized the secreted prhGM-CSF and increased the level of production approximately 1.5-fold to 270 ${\mu}$g/L. The biological activity of the prhGM-CSF was confirmed by measuring the proliferation of the hGM-CSF-dependent cell line, TF-1. Interestingly, the specific activity of the prhGM-CSF was estimated to be approximately 2.7 times higher than that of a commercially available preparation from E. coli.

A perfusion culture of transgenic Nicotiana tabacum cell suspensions, transformed to express recombinant glucuronidase (GUS), was successfully performed in a 5-1 stirred tank bioreactor. With 0.1 $day^{-1}$ of perfusion rate, the maximum dry cell weight (DCW) reached to 29.5 g/l in 16 days, which was 2.1-fold higher than the obtained in batch culture (14.3 g/l). In terms of the production of GUS, the volumetric activity could be increased up to 12.8 U/ml by using perfusion, compared with 4.9 U/ml in batch culture. The specific GUS activities in both perfusion and batch cultures were maintained at similar levels, 200-400 U/g DCW. Consequently, a perfusion culture could be a good strategy for the enhanced production of recombinant proteins in a plant cell culture system.

Interleukin-18 (IL-18), otherwise known as interferon-gamma-inducing factor (IGIF), is one of several well characterized and important cytokines that contribute to host defenses. The complementary DNA (cDNA) of mature human interleukin-18 gene (hIL-18) was fused with the signal peptide of the rice amylase 1A gene (Ramy1A) and introduced into the plant expression vector under the control of a duplicated CaMV 35S promoter. The recombinant plasmid was transformed into tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L. cv Havana) using the Agrobacterium-mediated transformation method. The integration of the hlL-18 gene into the genome of transgenic tobacco plants was confirmed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification and its expression was observed in the suspension cells that were derived from the transgenic plant callus by using Northern blot analysis. The hlL-18 protein was detected in the extracts of the transgenic callus and in the medium of the transgenic tobacco suspension culture by using immunoblot analysis. Based upon enzyme-linked immunosorbant assay (ELISA) results, the expression level of the hlL-18 protein approximated $166{\mu}g/L$ in the suspension culture medium. Bioassay results from the induction of $interferon-{\gamma}$ from a KG-1 cell line indicated that the hlL-18 secreted into the suspension culture medium was bioactive.

Production of therapeutic proteins by transgenic plant cell suspension cultures is an attractive system alternative to the other expression system. However, plant cell cultures have shown low expression level of foreign proteins and decreased cell viability by the changes of culture conditions. Therefore, it is necessary to enhance cell viability during the culture period. In this study, a quantitative analysis technique was designed to measure relative cell viability for plant suspension cells which have cell wall and aggregates. It was found that the programmed cell death of plant cells by apoptosis was essentially linked with the apoptotic pathway of animal cells. Therefore, effects of nicotinamide, 3-aminobenzamide and antioxidants on cell viability and apoptosis were examined in transgenic Nicotiana tabacum cells producing hGM-CSF. With those additives, cell viability could be maintained and apoptosis could be redued. In the result, the extracellular production of hGM-CSF could be enhanced 2.5 fold. It was also found that the supplementation of glutathione and ascorbic acid suppressed both the cold stress-induced decrease in cell viability and the increase of total genomic DNA fragmentation.

빛은 식물에서 성장과 발달을 비롯한 다양한 생리화학적인 역할은 지닌다. 본 연구는 hGM-CSF 유전자가 도입된 형질전한 담배의 callus를 현탁배양하여 hGM-CSF를 생산할 때에 빛을 조사하는 시간에 따른 hGM-CSF의 생산에 미치는 영향을 확인하고자 실시하였다. 24시간 명배양, 18시간 명배양과 암배양을 실시하여 세포성장과 분비된 총단백질, hGM-CSF 생산량을 비교 관찰하였다. 세포의 성장은 24시간 명배양일 때 건조중량이 14.4 g/L로 가장 높았다. 분비된 총단백질의 양은 세가지 경우에서 큰 차이를 관찰할 수가 없었지만, 단위 세포당 분비된 총단백질의 양은 암배양이 다른 것에 비해 1.5배 가량 높았다. hGM-CSF의 생산은 18시간 명배양 조건이 가장 좋았으며 최대생산량이 495.5ug/L에 이르렀다. 또한 분비된 총단백질에서 hGM-CSF가 차지하는 비율은 18시간 명배양이 24시간 명배양에 비해 최대 1.8배 높았다.

hGM-CSF가 식물세포 현탁 배양을 통하여 생산이 가능한지를 조사하기 위하여 hGM-CSF를 포함하고 있는 A. tumerfaciens LBA4404를 가지고 상추에 형질전환시켰다. 형질전환된 상추로부터 캘러스를 유도하여 캘러스를 이용한 세포배양체계를 확립하였다. PCR과 Southern blot analysis 결과 상추에 hGM-CSF 유전자가 도입된 것을 확인하였으며, Northern blot analysis 결과 상추식물체에 hGM-CSF 유전자가 발현됨을 확인하였다. 현탁 배양 세포로부터 분비된 hGM-CSF를 ELISA를 이용하여 측정한 결과 149.0 $\mu\textrm{g}$/L가 생산됨 을 확인하였다 이러한 결과는 상추의 현탁 배양 세포가 hGM-CSF와 같은 치료용 단백질의 생산 숙주로 이용될 수 있음을 보여주었다.
