Descripción

Aplicación

• 721.221 Human HLA negative B-lymphoblastoid cells are verified to be of human origin and negative for mouse, rat, Chinese hamster, Golden Syrian hamster, and non-human primate interspecies contamination, as assessed by a Contamination Clear panel by Charles River Animal Diagnostic Services
• Cells tested negative for infectious diseases against a Human Essential CLEAR panel by Charles River Animal Diagnostic Services.
• Cells tested negative for mycoplasma.

The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) gene complex encodes the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) proteins, key regulators of the human immune system. MHC proteins carry antigenic determinants for cell-surface recognition by T cells, and allow for immune autorecognition.1 The diversity of antigens provides a challenge for parsing individual T-cell activators and specific immune responses, and the ability to manipulate specific determinants is a paramount factor for understanding autoimmune diseases that arise from MHC dysfunction.
The 721.221 human HLA-negative B cell lymphoblastoid cell line is a well-established model for immune activation and HLA expression. The absence of class I HLA expression in 721.221 cells allows for functional analysis of individual class I antigens via transformation with individual HLA genes.2 HLA genes are ectopically expressed at quantitatively normal levels in 721.21 cells.2 721.221 cells express the B-cell marker CD19 4 and several NK activator ligands including CD48, CD80, and CD86. 5 The unique characteristics of the 721.221 cell line make it a highly versatile system for immunology research.

Source
The 721.221 cell line was derived from 721 lymphoblastoid cell line exposed to gamma radiation, inducing null mutations in endogenous HLA-A, B, and C class I antigen genes.
