| Remarks |
The donor was clinically affected with Alzheimer's disease. The onset of the disease occurred at age 49. The skin biopsy was taken ante-mortem from the forearm. Culture was initiated on 6/27/84 using explants of minced skin. The cell morphology is fibroblast-like. The karyotype is 46,XY; normal diploid male. Culture was frozen at PDL 9. A lymphoblast culture from same donor is AG07670. The legacy karyotype description shown in this Remark may not be representative of the current available product. |
