With future exploration of macrophage properties in mind, we established a novel cell line (HS-P) from a transplantable histiocytic sarcoma, derived originally from a tumour in an aged F344 rat. HS-P was subjected to 70 serial passages, in which the mean doubling time was 15.7 h. The cells, which were round, oval or polygonal in shape, were arranged in a compact sheet. They reacted to varying degrees for lysosomal enzymes (acid phosphatase and non-specific esterase) and with the following antibodies: ED1/ED2 (rat macrophage/histiocyte-specific), OX6 (rat MHC class II-specific), lysozyme antibody and alpha1-antichymotrypsin antibody. Electron microscopically, HS-P cells showed lysosomes and prominent cell projections. These findings indicated that the cultured cells were macrophage-like. Syngeneic rats inoculated subcutaneously or intraperitoneally with HS-P cells invariably developed sarcomatous tumours consisting of monomorphic mononuclear cells, which exhibited cytochemical properties similar to those of cultured HS-P cells. Bioassay and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction methods revealed that tumour necrosis factor-alpha increased on addition of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), indicating that HS-P cells remained LPS-responsive. HS-P cells may prove to be a useful tool for in-vitro studies of macrophage function.

D008264 Macrophages The relatively long-lived phagocytic cell of mammalian tissues that are derived from blood MONOCYTES. Main types are PERITONEAL MACROPHAGES; ALVEOLAR MACROPHAGES; HISTIOCYTES; KUPFFER CELLS of the liver; and OSTEOCLASTS. They may further differentiate within chronic inflammatory lesions to EPITHELIOID CELLS or may fuse to form FOREIGN BODY GIANT CELLS or LANGHANS GIANT CELLS.
