Immunologic, biochemical, and ultrastructural characterization of the leukemia cell in F344 rats. 1983

P C Stromberg, and J L Rojko, and L M Vogtsberger, and C Cheney, and R Berman

Immunologic, biochemical, and morphologic characteristics of the mononuclear cell from the leukemia of F344 rats were determined. The cells were morphologically similar to large granular lymphocytes (LGL). Surface marker analysis revealed Fc gamma receptors, no Fc gamma receptor or complement receptor activity, and an inability to spontaneously rosette guinea pig erythrocytes. Leukemia cells also had a surface immunoglobulin that hemagglutinated normal rat erythrocytes. The surface immunoglobulin and Fc gamma receptors dissociated from the cell after 2 hours of in vitro incubation, but Fc gamma receptor activity was reexpressed after 6 hours of in vitro incubation. Cells were capable of adherence to glass surfaces but had a low capacity for phagocytosis of latex beads. Cytochemical analysis revealed a consistent, strongly positive reaction for esterase that was sensitive to NaF. The cytochemical profile of the leukemia cell was similar to that described for LGL.

D002467 Cell Nucleus Within a eukaryotic cell, a membrane-limited body which contains chromosomes and one or more nucleoli (CELL NUCLEOLUS). The nuclear membrane consists of a double unit-type membrane which is perforated by a number of pores; the outermost membrane is continuous with the ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM. A cell may contain more than one nucleus. (From Singleton & Sainsbury, Dictionary of Microbiology and Molecular Biology, 2d ed) Cell Nuclei,Nuclei, Cell,Nucleus, Cell
