| Remarks |
The donor is 50% at risk for Alzheimer's disease. Donor's deceased father, paternal grandfather, and paternal great grandfather were affected. The culture was initiated on 2/27/85 by transformation of lymphocytes with Epstein Barr virus. The cells grow in suspension and their morphology is spherical. A fibroblast culture from same donor is AG08026. Donor's at-risk siblings are AG08440 Lymphoblast and AG08578 Fibroblast. |
