Cell Line Origin

Human Caucasian IgA-producing plasmacytoma

Cell Line Description

This IgA-producing cell line has been established from a malignant effusion in a 62-year-old Caucasian woman with myeloma. They are positive for plasma cell antigen 1 (PCA-1), transferrin receptor and CD38 but negative for early B cell developmental markers. HLA DR and CALLA. NCI-H929 is negative for Epstein-Barr virus nuclear antigen. A rearrangement of the c-myc proto-oncogene has been observed as well as the expression of c-myc RNA and an activated ras allele.

Application

Chemotherapeutic agent studies, receptor studies, carcinogenesis assays.
