Establishment of a T-cell line from human lymphosarcoma.

A leukemic T-cell line, designated as TALL-1, has been established in continuous culture from the bone marrow of a patient with a leukemic phase of T-cell lymphosarcoma. TALL-1 cells have T-cell properties and lack Epstein-Barr virus or its genome. The cells of TALL-1 line are considered to have originated from the donor's leukemic cells on the basis of their cytogenetic, morphological, and surface features.

Clinical significance of preoperative liver scintigraphy in gastric cancer.

The surgical and liver scintigraphic findings were compared for evaluation of preoperative diagnostic value in 146 cases of gastric carcinoma. Correct diagnosis was found in 95% with a false negative rate of 2.7% and a false positive rate of 27%. In all the false negative cases, the size of all space-occupying lesions within the liver was less than 3 cm. in diameter. In view of the high percentage of correct diagnosis (95%), we believe that the preoperative liver scintigraphy is very useful clinically. Furthermore, we documented that liver metastasis is a late complication of gastric cancer and suggest that new diagnostic tools are needed to assess the presence of nodal metastasis, serosal infiltration and peritoneal dissemination.
