| Remarks |
The donor was clinically affected with Alzheimer's disease. The onset of the disease occurred at age 49. The culture was initiated on 05/25/84 by transformation of lymphocytes with Epstein Barr virus. The cells grow in suspension and their morphology is spherical. The karyotype is 46,XY with 2% of the cells examined showing random chromosome loss. A skin fibroblast culture from same donor is AG07671A. The legacy karyotype description shown in this Remark may not be representative of the current available product. |
