Abstract | A cell line (KPB-L2) was established from the peripheral blood of a patient with diffuse Burkitt type lymphoma in a leukemic state. KPB-L2 expressed immunoglobulin M-kappa. on the surface as did the primary tumors and the original leukemic cells. KPB-L2 also expressed Ia-like antigen but lacked Epstein-Barr virus nuclear antigen. It exhibited a 14q+ marker chromosome, which was a result of a translocation between the long arms of chromosomes 8 and 14 [t(8;14)(q24;q32)], and the same 14q+ translocation was also found in the parental cells. This cell line may be useful for studying the significance of 14q+ rearrangement in the development of lymphoid malignancy. |
