| Remarks |
The donor is 50% at risk for Alzheimer's disease. The culture was initiated on 11/16/84 by transformation of lymphocytes with Epstein Barr virus. The cells grow in suspension and their morphology is spherical. The karyotype is 46,XX with 6% of the cells examined showing random chromosome loss/gain. A skin fibroblast culture from same donor is AG07928. The legacy karyotype description shown in this Remark may not be representative of the current available product. |
