- TEST SYSTEM
Specifications
Human monocytic leukemia cell line, THP-1 (an immortalised human monocytic leukemia cell line, used as a surrogate for dendritic cells), supplied by American Type Culture Collection (ATCC), Manassas, VA 20110 USA.
Identification
The test system was suitably labelled to clearly identify the study number, test article, test article concentration, positive and vehicle controls.
Cell culture maintenance
THP-1 cells were cultured, at 37 ºC under 5 % CO2 and humidified atmosphere, in RPMI0-1640 medium supplemented with 10 % heat inactivated (HI) foetal bovine serum (FBS), 0.05 mM 2-mercaptoethanol, 100 units/mL penicillin and 100 μg/ml streptomycin. The cells were passaged every 2-3 days at a density of 0.1 to 0.2E+06 cells/ml and maintained at a density from 0.1E+06 to 0.8E+06 cells/ml. Cell density did not exceed 1E+06 cells/ml.
Reactivity check
This was performed using DNCB, nickel sulphate and lactic acid two weeks after thawing.
DNCB and nickel sulphate should produce a positive response of both CD86 and CD54 and lactic acid should produce a negative response of both CD86 and CD54.
Only cells which passed the reactivity check were used for the assay.
Plate preparation
THP-1 cells were pre-cultured in culture flasks either at a density of 0.2E+06 cells/ml for 48 hours or at a density of 0.1E+06 cells/ml for 72 hours. On the days of testing, cells were harvested from the flasks and were resuspended with fresh culture medium at 2E+06 cells/ml. The cells were then distributed into a 24-well flat-bottom plate (500 μl/well).
STUDY DESIGN
Dose finding assay
The test article working solutions or solvent controls were mixed 1:1 (v/v) with the cell suspensions in the 96-well plates. The plates were sealed and then incubated for 24 hours at 37 °C, 5 % CO2. After the 24-hour incubation period, all cells from a 96-well flat-bottomed plate were transferred into a 96-well round-bottomed plate. The cells were washed at least twice in 200 μl of phosphate buffered saline containing 0.1 % bovine serum albumin (FACS buffer) and re-suspended in 190 μl of FACS buffer. 10 μl of propidium iodide solution (PI) was added just before FACS analysis (final concentration of PI = 0.625 μg/ml).
PI uptake was analysed using flow cytometry with the acquisition channel FL-3. A total of 10000 viable cells were acquired.
Cell viability was calculated using the following equation:
Cell Viability = number of living cells / total number of acquired cells × 100
The CV75 value, i.e. a concentration showing 75 % of THP-1 cell survival (25 % cytotoxicity), was calculated by log-linear interpolation using the following equation:
Log CV75 = (75 - c) × log (b) - (75-a) × log (d) / (a - c)
where:
a was the minimum value of cell viability over 75 % in testing groups
c was the maximum value of cell viability below 75 % in testing groups
b and d were the concentrations showing the value of cell viability a and c, respectively
CD86/CD54 expression measurement
One experiment (consisting of two independent runs) was needed to drive a prediction. Each independent run was performed on different days. On the days of testing, cells harvested from the flasks were resuspended with fresh culture medium at 2E+06 cells/ml. The cells were then distributed into a 24-well plate (500 μl/1E+06 cells per well).
The test article working solution or solvent control was mixed 1:1 (v/v) with the cell suspensions in the 24-well plates. Plates were sealed and then incubated for 24 hours at 37 °C, 5 % CO2.
After the 24-hour incubation period, the cells were transferred into sample tubes, collected by centrifugation (approximately 250 g, 5 minutes) and washed twice with 1 ml of FACS buffer. After washing, the cells were blocked with 600 μl of blocking solution (FACS buffer containing 0.01 % (w/v) globulin) at 4 ºC for 15 minutes.
After blocking, the cells were split into three aliquots of 180 μl into a 96-well plate and centrifuged (ca. 250 g, 3 minutes).
After centrifugation, the cells were stained with 50 μl of FITC-labelled anti-CD86, anti-CD54 or mouse IgG1 antibodies at 4 ºC for 30 minutes.
The stained cells were washed three times with an excess of FACS buffer, resuspended in FACS buffer and 12.5 μg/ml PI solution was added (to give a final PI concentration of 0.625 μg/ml).
The expression levels of CD86 and CD54 and cell viability were analysed using flow cytometry.
Results and discussion
- Positive control results:
- RFI values were ≥ 150 % for CD86 and ≥ 200 % for CD54 in all each independent runs. Cell viability was > 50 % in each independent run.

- Cell viabilities of medium and solvent control were higher than 90 % in each independent run.
In the solvent control, RFI values of both CD86 and CD54 did not exceed the positive criteria (CD86 RFI ≥ 150 % and CD54 RFI ≥ 200 %).
For both medium and solvent controls, the MFI ratio of both CD86 and CD54 to isotype control was > 105 % on all occasions.
For the positive control (DNCB), RFI values were ≥ 150 % for CD86 and ≥ 200 % for CD54 in all each independent runs. Cell viability was > 50 % in each independent run.
For test substance, cell viability was more than 50 % in all tested concentrations in each independent run.

Dose range finding assay
CV75 value for test substance was 2044 µg/ml. However, maximum solubility of test substance s 200 mg/ml in saline, to give a maximum treatment concentration of 2 mg/ml. Therefore, the highest concentration in main experiment was limited to 2000 µg/ml.

Method
Human Cella Line Activation TEst (hCLAT) was conducted according to OECD guideline 446E.
Based on a maximum attainable concentration of test substance in saline of 200 mg/ml, a maximum test concentration of 2000 μg/ml was used. The CV75 value determined in a dose finding assay was 2044 μg/ml. Therefore the highest concentration employed in the main experiment was limited to 2000 μg/ml.
Eight stock solutions of the test article were prepared by 1.2-fold serial dilutions at the concentrations of: 55.8, 67.0, 80.4, 96.5, 115.7, 138.9, 166.7 and 200 mg/ml.
Aliquots of 500 μl of each of the working solutions were mixed 1:1 with cell suspensions at 1.0E+06 cells per well. Each plate was sealed using a plate sealer and then incubated at 37±1 °C, 5 % (v/v) CO2 in air, in a humidified environment for 24 ± 0.5 hours.
After the 24-hour incubation period, the cells were transferred into sample tubes, collected by centrifugation, washed with FACS buffer and then blocked with 600 μl of blocking solution at 4 °C for 15 minutes.
After blocking, the cells were split into three aliquots of 180 μl into a 96-well plate (or sample tubes), centrifuged and then stained with FITC-labelled anti-CD86, anti-CD54 or mouse IgG1 antibodies at 4 °C for 30 minutes.
The stained cells were washed with FACS buffer and re-suspended in FACS buffer and propidium iodide (PI) solution was added. The expression levels of CD86 and CD54 and cell viability were analysed using flow cytometry.
Results
RFI values < 150 % for CD86 and > 200 % for CD54 were found in both experiment 1 and 2. Accordingly, test substance was considered as positive in the hCLAT.
