Cell line: | IARC-176A |
DSMZ no.: | ACC 926 |
Species: | human (Homo sapiens) |
Cell type: | B lymphoblastoid cells |
Origin: | B95-8-EBV-transformed cell line established in 1981 from normal B-cells of peripheral blood of a 3-year-old boy with Burkitt lymphoma; an autologous BL cell line is available (BL-37, DSMZ ACC 918) |
Reference(s): | 14714, 40234, 40265 |
Biosafety level: | 2 |
Risk assessment: | The cell line is positive for EBV (HHV-4) by PCR analysis. Additionally, expression of immediate-early protein BZLF-1 was also positive by western blot analysis in untreated and phorbol ester / sodium butyrate stimulated cells. The infection was classified as lytic associated with a production of active viruses. A transmission of EBV during handling of the cells is possible and the cell line is therefore classified biosafety level 2. |
