Hematopoietic-Myeloid Leukemia Cell Lines

The parental AML14 human myeloid leukemic cell line was established from a 68-year-old man who presented with FAB M2 acute myeloid leukemia.

AML14

  • Morphologically, the cells appear quite undifferentiated
  • Can be induced to eosinophilic differentiation with IL‐3, GM‐CSF, and IL‐5

AML14.3D10

  • Fully differentiated eosinophilic myelocyte subline of the AML14
  • Maintain advanced eosinophil phenotype and proliferates with a doubling time of 48 h in the absence of cytokine supplementation
  • Cells will proliferate more rapidly in response to GM‐CSF or IL‐5
  • AML14.3D10 longer expresses the gene for the α‐subunit of the IL‐3 receptor, compared to AML14
  • Express mRNA and protein for all of the major eosinophil granule proteins (major basic protein [MBP], eosinophil derived neurotoxin [EDN], eosinophil cationic protein [ECP], eosinophil peroxidase [EPO]) and the cytosolic Charcot‐Leyden crystal protein (CLC)

AML14.eos

  • Cytokine-induced fully differentiated eosinophilic myelocyte subline of AML14
  • Proliferate and maintain a differentiated phenotype only if supplemented with cytokines (IL-3, Il-5, and GM-CSF)
  • Express all of the major eosinophil granule proteins (major basic protein [MBP], eosinophil derived neurotoxin [EDN], eosinophil cationic protein [ECP], eosinophil peroxidase [EPO]) and the cytosolic Charcot‐Leyden crystal protein (CLC)

Specifications

Product Type: Cell Line
Cell Type: Hematopoietic-Myeloid Leukemia
Morphology: AML14: Undifferentiated, resembles immature myeloid precursors. Exhibits eosinophilic differentiation in suspension in response to IL-3, IL-5, and GM-CSF.
AML14.3D10 & AML14.eos: Proliferates as an eosinophilic myelocyte to metamyelocyte, containing eosinophil secondary granules.
Organism: Homo sapiens, human
Source: Peripheral blood
Biosafety Level: BSL2
Subculturing: Grow in suspension (non-adherent). Maintain cell concentration between 3 x 105 to 1 x 106; do not allow concentration to exceed 1 x 106 cell/ml. Split cells every 4-5 days, 1 volume old culture:2 volumes fresh media.
Growth Conditions: RPMI 1640, 8% FBS, 2mM L-glutamine, 1mM Sodium pyruvate, 50uM Beta-mercaptoethanol (see DOCUMENTATION section below)
Cryopreservation: 90% FBS + 10% DMSO
Comments: AML14.3D10: When the density of 1x 106 cell/mL is exceeded, the cells appear to degranulate, which is fatal to the culture, presumably due to the toxic nature of eosinophil granule proteins. It is also difficult to resurrect the line from frozen aliquots for the same reason. Initial viability after thawing is usually about 20%‐30%. Recovery is facilitated by frequent replacement of culture medium during the first 72 h after thawing.
AML14.eos: They exhibit adverse reactions to alkaline conditions and to serum with high iron content. If they start to revert to the parental strain they can be induced back to the eosinophilic mode with 100 pM GM-CSF, 250 pM IL-3 and 1 ng/mL IL-5.
Storage: LN2
Shipped: Dry Ice
