U-2940
ACC 634
Cell line:
U-2940
DSMZ no.:
ACC 634
Species:
human (Homo sapiens)
Cell type:
B cell lymphoma
Origin:
established in 1991 from the pleural effusion of a 18-year-old woman with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) after being diagnosed earlier with Hodgkin lymphoma and treated with chemotherapy; recent molecular biological characterization assigned this cell line to the entity "primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma" (PMBL); cells were described in the literature to bear microsatellite instability. Exome and RNA sequence data are available (see Ref 18187 and
Exome sequence and RNA-Seq)
Biosafety level:
1
Permissions and restrictions:
Depositor-specific restrictions:
Transfer to third parties needs to be negotiated with the depositor.
DSMZ Cell Culture Data:
Medium:
90% RPMI 1640 + 10% h.i. FBS
Subculture:
seed out at ca. 0.5 x 106 cells/ml; maintain at 0.5-1.5 x 106 cells/ml; cells need 3-5 days to recover after thawing; it might be of advantage to start culture initially in a 12- or 24-well-plate
Incubation:
at 37 °C with 5% CO2
Doubling time:
ca. 50 hours
Harvest:
cell harvest of ca. 2 x 106 cells/ml
Storage:
frozen with 70% medium, 20% FBS, 10% DMSO
DSMZ Scientific Data:
Mycoplasma:
negative in microbiological culture, PCR assays
Immunology:
CD3 -, CD10 -, CD13 -, CD19 +, CD20 +, CD34 -, CD37 +, cyCD79a +, CD80 +, CD138 -, HLA-DR +, sm/cyIgG +, sm/cyIgM -, sm/cykappa +, cm/cylambda -; image
Authenticity:
STR analysis according to the global standard ANSI/ATCC ASN-0002.1-2021 (2021) resulted in an authentic STR profile of the reference STR database.
Cytogenetics:
human hypodiploid karyotype with 8% polyploidy;
45(43-45)X, -X, del(3)(p14p21), del(6)(q13q15), der(7)t(2;7)(q22;p22), dup(12)(q13q22), der(14)t(X;14)(q12;p11), t(16;16)(p12;p13), del(17)(p13); carries homozygous microdeletion of SOCS1 locus; resembles published karyotype
Viruses:
PCR: EBV -, HBV -, HCV -, HIV-1 -, HIV-2 -, HTLV-1/2 -, MLV -, SMRV -
