Abstract A new human cell line, NCU-L-3, is established from the peripheral blood of a patient with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, FAB type L3. The cell line grows in a single-cell suspension with a dobuling time of 30 to 46 hours, and expresses L3 morphologic features. Immunologic study reveals that NCU-L-3 cells express IgM and IgA-kappa on their surface, and react with monoclonal antibodies to B-cell antigens. These cells are negative for T-cell and myeloid/monocyte antigens as well as Epstein-Barr virus nuclear antigen (EBNA). Both fresh peripheral blood and NCU-L-3 cells have a t(8;14) karyotype. This cell line should be contributive for future studies of cell proliferation and the oncogenesis of this neoplasm.
