Chromosomal variation in lymphoblastoid cell lines.
Tens of thousands of lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs) have been established by the research community, providing nearly unlimited source material from samples of interest. LCLs are used to address questions in population genomics, mechanisms of disease, and pharmacogenomics. Thus, it is of fundamental importance to define the extent of chromosomal variation in LCLs. We measured variation in gen...
متن کاملEstablishment of Epstein-Barr Virus Growth-transformed Lymphoblastoid Cell Lines
Infection of B cells with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) leads to proliferation and subsequent immortalization, resulting in establishment of lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCL) in vitro. Since LCL are latently infected with EBV, they provide a model system to investigate EBV latency and virus-driven B cell proliferation and tumorigenesis(1). LCL have been used to present antigens in a variety of immunol...
متن کاملA greatly simplified method of establishing B-lymphoblastoid cell lines.
Ten lymphoblastoid cell lines were established by Epstein-Barr virus-induced transformation directly from 0.04 to 0.15 ml of peripheral whole blood of one patient with xeroderma pigmentosum and four normal healthy adults. All these lines expressed B-lymphocyte characteristics. The advantages of this method are: (a) only a few drops of blood are required for establishing a permanent line; (b) da...
متن کاملGrowth properties and alloantigenic expression of murine lymphoblastoid cell lines
Murine lymphoblastoid cell lines were evaluated for their expression of Thy-1 and thymus leukemia (TL) differentiation alloantigens. Two culture conditions were shown to affect this expression. Cells grown in fetal bovine serum (FBS)-enriched medium expressed up to 15 times the amount of TL as cells grown in horse serum (HS)-enriched medium. Thy-1 expression was less affected by the type of ...
متن کاملInstability at Short Tandem Repeats in Lymphoblastoid Cell Lines
OBJECTIVES Epstein Barr virus (EBV)-transformed lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs) are a useful biological resource, however, genomic variations can happen during the generation and immortalization processes of LCLs. The purpose of this study was to identify genomic variations in LCL DNA compared with matched blood DNA using short tandem repeats (STRs) analysis. METHODS We analyzed 15 STRs with...
