Antitumor antibodies in human breast cancer sera as detected by fixed cell immunofluorescence and living cell membrane immunofluorescence assays.

The reactions of patients' sera with cultured human breast cancer cells were studied by fixed cell immunofluorescence (FCF) and living cell membrane immunofluorescence (MF) tests. The results suggested that the FCF reaction detected antibodies that were cell or organ specific, whereas the MF test was more indicative of an antineoplastic immune response.

Acute lymphocytic leukemia with atypical cytochemical features.

In a series of 78 cases of acute lymphocytic leukemia, seven were found to demonstrate blast cells staining strongly for both the periodic acid-Schiff reaction and alpha-naphthyl acetate esterase. It is suggested that these features may represent a subclassification of acute lymphocytic leukemia or may be a marker for the leukemic phase of lymphoma.

The tissue culture and morphology of human breast tumor cell line BOT-2.

A continuous human breast tumor cell line (BOT-2) was derived from an infiltrating duct carcinoma. The tumor cell line was grown as a monolayer in flasks, but the cells could be readily adapted to growth in roller cultures. These studies indicate that BOT-2 cells have a 16- to 18-hr doubling time and a modal chromosomal number of 63. The original BOT-2 cell culture has been in continuous cultivation for almost 2 years and has been passed 137 times. The BOT-2 cell line has been differentiated from HeLa cells by isoenzyme studies and chromosomal analysis.
