Remarks |
The donor (Volga German) is a probable escapee from Alzheimer disease. Donor's father, grandfather and 11 siblings are affected. The culture was initiated on 7/18/86 by transformation of lymphocytes with Epstein Barr virus. The cells grow in suspension and their morphology is spherical. The karyotype is 46,XX with 4% of the cells examined showing random chromosome loss and 2% showing random chromosomal aberrations. A lymphoblast culture from donor's affected brother is AG09369A. The legacy karyotype description shown in this Remark may not be representative of the current available product. |
