Abstract

|
Site specific glycosylation of immunoglobulin G (IgG) occurs at Asn297 in the Fc region. The heterogeneous ensemble of glycoform occurs due to the degree of terminal galactosylation and sialylation, and these differences in glycosylation affect both the pharmacokinetic behavior and effector functions of the IgG, such as complementdependent cytotoxicity (CDC) and antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). In this study, the differential glycosylation of IgG was compared and environmental physical and chemical parameters were evaluated in an attempt to promote glycosylation of recombinant antibodies, thereby creating more humanized glycoform antibodies and increasing their in vivo efficacy as therapeutic drugs. It was shown that cells at late stationary growth phase in batch cultures, cells with increased passage number, and the culture conditions of lowered temperature and pH promoted galactosylation and sialylation of antibodies. Galactose, fructose and mannose were found to elicit galactosylation and sialylation when they were used alone as a substitute of glucose. Mannose showed synergistic effects on glycosylation when used with other sugars, such as glucose and galactose. However when fructose was used with other sugars, the degree of galactosylation mechanism appeared to be decreased. These results support understandings of the glycosylation mechanisms in glycoprotein, particularly recombinant antibodies for therapeutics.
