    The production of recombinant antibody was significantly enhanced by the method of overexpression of Heat Shock Protein 70 in Chinese Hamster Ovary(CHO) cells.The gene HSP70 was cloned from CHO/dhfr-cells,then HSP70 expression plasmid pcDNA3.1-HSP70 was constructed and transfected into CHO/dhfr-cells.CHO cell line overexpressing HSP70 stably was isolated and the expression of HSP70 gene was analyzed through RT-PCR.Anti-HBs chimeric antibody expression plasmids were transfected into the HSP70 cell line,ELISA was performed to test the production of anti-HBs antibody.It demonstrated that the overexpression of HSP70 can enhance the production of recombinant antibody in CHO/dhfr-cells(P0.05).

    We have isolated emetine-resistant cell lines from Chinese hamster peritoneal fibroblasts and have shown that they represent a third distinct class or complementation group of emetine-resistant mutants, as determined by three different criteria. These mutants, like those belonging to the two other complementation groups we have previously defined, which were isolated from Chinese hamster lung and Chinese hamster ovary cells, have alterations that directly affect the protein biosynthetic machinery. So far, there is absolute cell line specificity with respect to the three complementation groups, in that all the emetine-resistant mutants we have isolated from Chinese hamster lung cells belong to one complementation group, all those we have isolated from Chinese hamster ovary cells belong to a second complementation group, and all those isolated from Chinese hamster peritoneal cells belong to a third complementation group. Thus, in cultured Chinese hamster cells, mutations in at least three different loci, designated emtA, emtB, and emtC, encoding for different components of the protein biosynthetic machinery, can give rise to the emetine-resistant phenotype.

    Recombinant therapeutic proteins (RTPs) are important parts of biopharmaceuticals. Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO) have become the main cell hosts for the production of most RTPs approved for marketing because of their high-density suspension growth characteristics, and similar human post-translational modification patterns et al. In recent years, many studies have been performed on CHO cell expression systems, and the yields and quality of recombinant protein expression have been greatly improved. However, the expression levels of some proteins are still low or even difficult-to express in CHO cells. It is urgent further to increase the yields and to express successfully the “difficult-to express” protein in CHO cells. The process of recombinant protein expression of is a complex, involving multiple steps such as transcription, translation, folding processing and secretion. In addition, the inherent characteristics of molecular will also affect the production of protein. Here, we reviewed the factors affecting the expression of recombinant protein and improvement strategies in CHO cells.

    At present, nearly 70% of recombinant therapeutic proteins (RTPs) are produced by Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, and serum-free medium (SFM) is necessary for their culture to produce RTPs. In this review, the history and key components of SFM are first summarized, and its preparation and experimental design are described. Some small molecule compound additives can improve the yield and quality of RTP. The function and possible mechanisms of these additives are also reviewed here. Finally, the future perspectives of SFM use with CHO cells for RTP production are discussed.

    It is very important to produce recombinant proteins for therapy in biophar maceutical. Chinese hamster ovary cells(CHO cells) have become one of the best eukaryotic expression systems in recent years. The factors influencing the high level expression of foreign protein in CHO cells and the core strategies of overexpression of recombinant proteins in CHO cells were discussed.
