Abstract

The article presents the results of certification of two trofovariants of MDVK cell lines with the help of traditional method and flow cytometry. Research object was the test cultures MDBK-E and MDBK-B, which passed 30 and 43 passages, respectively, after cryopreservation. The traditional method of attestation of transplanted cell lines, widely used in practice, is rather laborious and requires significant expenditures of labor, money and time. The flow cytometry method is based on a wide range of cytochemical and fluorescent methods for the analysis of sizes, granularity, phases of the cell cycle, structural components (DNA, RNA, protein), cell apoptosis and a number of other indicators. It was experimentally established that the sublines of MDBK-E and MDBK-B cells differed in cultural, cytomorphological and karyological parameters, as well as in contamination by foreign agents and sensitivity to parainfluenza-3 viruses and infectious rhinotracheitis in cattle. Analysis of histograms of cell distribution depending on the DNA content showed that the studied lines MDBK-E and MDBK-B did not exceed the standard indicator in terms of apoptosis and were at the level of 3,9 and 6,8%, respectively. Cells of the MDBK-E line did not contain viral and mycoplasma contamination, were characterized by a pronounced growth potential, retained the original cell morphology and were the most promising substrate for the production of antigens of parainfluenza-3, infectious rhinotracheitis in cattle. Analysis of granularity distribution results testified to the violation of the division processes and the appearance in the population of the subline MDBK-B of abnormal cells, as well as inadequate conditions for maintaining the test culture. It has been established that the flow cytometry method is objective and quite promising in the selection of culture models that meet the requirements of domestic and international standards. The revealed correlation between the magnitude of apoptosis, cultural properties and parameters of the cell cycle makes it possible to assess the biological properties of the producer culture as one of the leading factors in the change in programmed cell death. Changes the index of programmed cell death underlies a number of important pathological conditions and degenerative processes.
