Quick Overview

Human B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia cell line with TEL-AML1 fusion.

Detailed Summary

The Reh cell line is a human B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia cell line established from the peripheral blood of a 15-year-old girl with non-T, non-B acute lymphoblastic leukemia. It is characterized by the presence of the TEL-AML1 fusion gene resulting from the (12;21) translocation, which is a common genetic abnormality in childhood B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The cell line exhibits a unique immunophenotype, being negative for surface immunoglobulin and sheep erythrocyte rosette formation, and shows reactivity with anti-ALL sera. Reh cells are also notable for their ability to express the TEL-AML1 fusion transcript and for their use in studying the molecular mechanisms of leukemia and in immunotherapy research.
