MHYO-LCL2 Human B-lymphoblast Cancer Cell Line

Invented by Michal Hayun
Invented at Rambam Health Care Campus

Info

Catalogue Number 160592
Antigen/Gene or Protein Targets Leukaemia
Parental Line Novel patient-derived (female; acute myeloid leukaemia) cell line
Host Human
Tissue Blood
Disease Keywords Leukaemia, Cancer
Model Tumour line
Relevance The MHYO-LCL2 is an immortalised cancer cell line derived from a patient with acute myeloid leukaemia. The cell type is B-lymphoblast.

This cell line is a useful tool for reactivation of EBV-specific cytotoxic T-lymphocytes in vitro.
Production Details This cell line was spontaneously grown from peripheral blood drawn from a female acute myeloid leukaemia patient upon diagnosis. This line was established in culture four weeks after seeding the AML blast cells. The cells contain low EBV mRNA expression and secret EBV into media, confirming immortalisation and transformation. These cells are in suspension and mostly grow as aggregates.
Conditional No
Research Area Cancer
Growth/Phenotype Keywords B-lymphoblast. Morphology: B-lymphoblastoid. Confirmed antigen expression: CD19, CD20, CD27, CD38, IgG. Confirmed cytokine secretion: IL-6, IL-10.
Recommended Growing Conditions Cells have been grown in IScove Modified Dulbecco's Medium containing 10% foetal bovine serum and 1% pencicillin/streptomycin. Cells are grown at 37 degrees celsius and 5% CO2. Cultures were split at confluency 1:2 or 1:3 two or three times per week.
Notes Relevant research areas include: Drug discovery, B-cell biology, B-cell development and transformation, and acute myeloid leukaemia.

These cells are polyclonal as confirmed by IGH gene clonality assay.
