We hypothesized that exploiting this feature of miRNAs could improve therapeutic protein production processes by increasing viable cell densities and/or productivity of the mammalian cells used for manufacturing. To identify miRNAs that increase the productivity of producer cells, we performed a genome wide functional miRNA screen by transient transfection of Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells stably expressing an IgG1 antibody (CHO-IgG1). Using this approach, we identified nine human miRNAs that improved the productivities not only of the CHO-IgG1 cells but also of CHO cells expressing recombinant human serum albumin (HSA), demonstrating that the miRNAs act in a product-independent manner. We selected two miRNAs (miR-557 and miR-1287) positively impacting the viable cell density and the specific productivity, respectively, and then stably co-expressed them in IgG1 expressing CHO cells. In these cells, higher IgG1 titers were observed in fed-batch cultures whilst product quality was conserved, demonstrating that miRNA-based cell line engineering provides an attractive approach toward the genetic optimization of CHO producer cells for industrial applications. © 2013 The Authors. %@ 1096-7184 (Electronic)$\backslash$r1096-7176 (Linking)
