OBJECTIVE In order to provide material for genetic analysis of fibrous dysplasia (FD), a cell line designated GBS-1 was established from a secondary bone malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) developing in a rib of a 44-year-old male polyostotic FD patient. RESULTS The GBS-1 cells are characterized by a pleomorphic spindle cell morphology with abundant mucus production. On transplantation to nude mouse subcutis the cell line forms myxoid-spindle cell sarcomas with giant cells, the myxoid product being positive for periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) and alcian blue (Al-B) stains and completely digested by hyaluronidase, mimicking the original tumor. Chromosome and genetic analyses revealed multiple structural and numerical abnormalities of chromosomes with a large number of unidentifiable chromosomes and p53 mutation in exon 7 with LOH in the counterpart. CONCLUSIONS Since cell lines for FD have hitherto not been available, the GBS-1 cells should prove useful for genetic analyses of FD and also MFH of bone origin.
