RCH-ACV: a lymphoblastic leukemia cell line with chromosome translocation 1;19 and trisomy 8. 1986

I Jack, and R Seshadri, and M Garson, and P Michael, and D Callen, and H Zola, and A Morley

A cell line (RCH-ACV) was established from a bone marrow sample of a child with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The cell line lacked Epstein-Barr virus nuclear antigen and exhibited a recently described nonrandom chromosome translocation, 1;19, thought to be associated with pre-B-ALL and poor prognosis. Banding studies confirm that the breakpoint of chromosome #19 occurs at p13.3. Cell surface marker analysis using a panel of monoclonal antibodies revealed markers consistent with common ALL phenotype. Although the cells did not show cytoplasmic immunoglobulin, studies of the immunoglobulin gene rearrangement confirmed the pre-B phenotype. This cell line could be of great value to studies of the role of the specific translocation 1;19 in the etiology of pre-B-ALL.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007136 Immunoglobulins Multi-subunit proteins which function in IMMUNITY. They are produced by B LYMPHOCYTES from the IMMUNOGLOBULIN GENES. They are comprised of two heavy (IMMUNOGLOBULIN HEAVY CHAINS) and two light chains (IMMUNOGLOBULIN LIGHT CHAINS) with additional ancillary polypeptide chains depending on their isoforms. The variety of isoforms include monomeric or polymeric forms, and transmembrane forms (B-CELL ANTIGEN RECEPTORS) or secreted forms (ANTIBODIES). They are divided by the amino acid sequence of their heavy chains into five classes (IMMUNOGLOBULIN A; IMMUNOGLOBULIN D; IMMUNOGLOBULIN E; IMMUNOGLOBULIN G; IMMUNOGLOBULIN M) and various subclasses.
