Sequence based analysis of U-2973, a cell line established from a double-hit B-cell lymphoma with concurrent MYC and BCL2 rearrangements

Abstract: BackgroundDouble-hit lymphoma is a complex and highly aggressive sub-type of B-cell lymphoma, which has recently been classified and is an area of active research interest due to the poor prognosis for patients with this disease. It is characterized by the presence of both an activating MYC chromosomal translocation and a simultaneous additional oncogenic translocation, often of the BCL2 gene. Recently, a cell line was established from a patient with this complex lymphoma and analyzed using conventional tools … Show more

“…The CJ cell line that we established in 1990 before recognition of the clinical importance of DHL is believed to be the first DHL cell line showing both MYC and BCL2 gene rearrangements [ 8 ]. In 2003, we established another MYC/BCL2 DHL cell line, designated EJ-1, that morphologically resembled DLBCL [ 9 ], and recently, Hooper et al [ 10 ] described the establishment of a novel MYC/BCL2 DHL cell line, U-2973. Several recent studies indicate that the OCI-LY18, Sc-1, and CARNAVAL DLBCL cell lines also appear to demonstrate MYC/BCL2 double-hit characteristics [ 11 , 12 ], but a comprehensive genetic analysis of these cell lines has not been published.…”
