Description

Application

T-cell acute lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-ALL) is a rare but aggressive form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, with a high relapse rate and poor long-term survival (1). The majority of T-cell lymphoblastic leukemias and lymphomas harbors activating mutations in the NOTCH1 gene, a key signaling component required for T-cell development (2). Drugs targeting the Notch pathway are thus promising avenues for treatment of T-cell lymphoblastic leukemias. Lack of response of human T-ALL cell lines to Notch inhibitors has hampered the clinical applicability of these models.

CUTLL1 is a human T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma cell line derived from a relapsed patient that harbors a t(7;9)(q34;q34) chromosomal translocation resulting in expression of a TCRB-NOTCH1 fusion transcript and aberrant Notch signaling (3). CUTLL1 cells demonstrate high sensitivity to gamma-secretase inhibitors, which act on the Notch pathway. CUTLL1 cells express markers of immature T-cells including CD3, CD4, CD8 and TCRαα (3).

Source:
The CUTLL1 cell line was established from pleural effusion of a relapsed 14-year-old male patient suffering from T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (2)

Features and Benefits

The CUTLL1 cell line is a valuable and clinically relevant model for T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma.

Storage and Stability

Store in liquid nitrogen. The cells can be cultured for at least 10 passages after initial thawing without significantly affecting the cell marker expression and functionality.
